In the world of football, there are not only the king of the ball who conquers everyone by his skills, but also the grassroots who rise from the bottom, but also the fighters who fight against the disease and return to the court.
Eriksen, who had a heart stopped beating at the European Cup, also returned after completing surgery for a defibrillator implant. From scoring in 2 games on the day of the national team match, to scoring in the Premier League Chelsea to help the team reverse the win away from home.
01. From kidney fighters to liver fighters: they are not afraid of disease
I believe that many friends have seen Saint Seiya in their childhood. Therefore, when I accidentally hear the word "kidney fighter", there will be some drama.
Croatian star Krašnik helped Bremen win the Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal doubles in 2004, scoring 13 goals in the league while delivering 10 assists, making him a big contributor to the team's topping.
Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with kidney failure in 2007. In desperation, the 26-year-old Krasnich chose to change his kidney and accepted a gift from his mother.
Regrettably, there was rejection after the operation, and 2 months later he received another kidney transplant from his father.
Returning after an 11-month absence, he declared himself to win the match against the disease with a double score. He then moved to Ligue 1 for Nantes and Premier League goal-scoring 23 goals before retiring at the age of 33.
The more famous example comes from Barça's Dream Three Meritorious Abidal, who was once away from the pitch because of a liver tumor. After 402 days, when he was a little emaciated and put on his Barça shirt again and stepped onto the pitch, red and blue fans applauded him wildly.
Even his chief surgeon, Valde Casas, was surprised by Abidal's recovery: "His success is a miracle, the liver transplant person recovers to 90% in his daily work, and Abidal actually returns to the stadium." ”
02. From the first iron lung before the Premier League to the "heart fighter": Kante is still unable to defend
The player who used to run best in the Premier League was not Kante, but Eriksen, who played for Tottenham. He set a record for the first stage of the Premier League, which runs 12.391 km per 90 minutes, putting Liverpool's Milner, Chelsea's Kante and Giogenho behind him.
Leaving Inter to return to the Premier League, Eriksen sprinted at a less percentage after heart surgery than he did at the beginning, but he was still the iron lung star and had a good sense of no-ball movement.
In this wave of offensive and defensive conversions, seeing that Mbemo and Ziyech wanted to take the first point of the header, Eriksen's choice was to move closer to his teammates to meet the second point at the first time.
After seeing Mbenmo completely push up against Ziyech, successfully get the ball and push forward to take off, Eriksen had another clever move towards the back point of the empty position.
Eriksen can get enough space at the back post, or thanks to the speed advantage of his team's striker Mbenmo, Alonso and Ziyech have been unable to catch up, so Kante must move sideways to make up for it, completely emptying Eriksen.
Alonso's pace was clearly slow, and perhaps he should have followed Erikson from the start. The same applies to Ziyech, who and Alonso ultimately failed to play a role, and it would have been the right thing to do if any one of them had followed Eriksen.
However, on the football field, if there is no defensive mistake which has the attacker's goal, Eriksen, through his ability to read the space, seized a chance to score in front of goal to help Brentford reverse the lead 2-1 away from home.
03. Eriksen is not known for holding the ball: passing + running is the core competitiveness
a． A lot of no-ball runs: the secret to Erikson's success
On the football field, doing one thing once is called chance or bumping into bad luck, but if it happens repeatedly, it is a routine.
Eriksen is not very good at holding the ball, his biggest characteristics are passing and running. So at Brentford, Eriksen's value is still a one-foot pass plus a quick forward thrust. This has been the case since the time of Tottenham.
This time, the little bee used Tony as the axis, allowing Mbemo and Janelt to continuously intersperse the connection and pass, playing a beautiful match of the ribs.
After Yanert inserted the near ribs in front of him to bring Rudiger sideways, if Mbenmo could have passed directly to Eriksen, who had already raised his hand to ask for the ball at the back post, it was likely that he would have copied another goal.
Unfortunately, Mbenmo's choice was to give it to the near-end Janet, who tried to cross to Eriksen and failed.
b. Pass the ball as soon as possible: more belts will cause accidents
Eriksen's value is a quick one-foot pass that runs a lot, no ball before inserting the goal + defensive landing + attacking and defensive conversion. This is also fully reflected in the data of this field.
But if he sticks to the ball, it often goes wrong. This time Erikson should have moved quickly to find the wing, but the pass was a little slower, and the result was cut off by Cheek.
Now Eriksen's explosive power is weaker than before, and it is a little difficult to chase back on his own. He failed to catch up with Werner, whose pass gave Havertz a one-handed, but unfortunately the German did not take advantage of the best opportunity to close the score gap.
Eriksen has scored or assisted in his last 4 club and national team matches! It is also worth mentioning that Chelsea is the Danish star's favorite opponent, having played 17 times, and he has contributed 3 goals and 7 assists.
Conclusion:
Erickson, who has a Valentine's Day birthday in February this year, ushered in his 30th birthday, he is no longer young, but for the world cup dream, he still lets his heart take a risk with himself.
Missing out on Denmark's magical performance of reaching the top four of the European Championship, how far can Eriksen go with the Fairy Tale Legion at the end of the year in the World Cup? Maybe we'll have to wait for time to give us an answer.
