For Chelsea, Jose obviously has a high level of confidence, but opposite Wolfsburg, he is definitely not a good team to deal with. At the beginning of the game, Chelsea did immediately give Wolfsburg a downfall, but in the next game, the passage of time, the whole half of the fast past, but Chelsea has never been able to capture the door of Wolfsburg.
Azar again and again in, Eto'o again and again run, the Chelsea players in Wolfsburg's half exhausted, but they have always been unable to break through Wolfsburg's defense. Compared with the last game, in addition to the reversal of attack and defense, the situation of the game is very close. In the face of Wolfsburg's defensive, Chelsea are also powerless.
Obviously, it's not just a Chelsea who comes prepared. Chelsea in this game, of course, is to adjust their lineup, full of confidence, but in order to be able to defend the attack of Chelsea, before the game, Wolfsburg not only carried out a stronger tactical planning, and even strengthened in the psychological level, facing the attack of cersi, Wolfsburg showed very decisive, from the beginning, has been in steady progress Go and defend. This game, Chelsea want to win, far from easy, their opponent, is not a good bone.
After all, in the final analysis, although the attack of Chelsea has become much stronger, Wolfsburg at home is still full of advantages. Their defense is not bad, and the other side's attack moves are just two or three times. Under the full defense, Wolfsburg's defense is naturally very stable.
After getting 2-2 away from home, Wolfsburg can get the final victory as long as they keep their guard. Obviously, Wolfsburg are also very clear about this. Under such conditions, Wolfsburg can not be easily defeated. On the pitch, they are also very strong in defence. The attack of Chelsea has never played any role.
However, the 2-2 draw, after all, is just a small advantage, as long as a goal, can break the balance. And on the pitch to insist on attack of Chelsea, obviously also very clear this point, although the attack is not so ideal, but they never stop attacking, obviously because they know, persist, they can win.
The Champions League game is not only a contest of skills and tactics, but also a contest of fighting spirit and will. This game, once again, proves this point. And after the second half, this battle of will and will, Chelsea once again dominated.
Shortly after the start of the second half, Lampard was in the middle of the field and got the football again. When he got the ball, Azar on the left side also quickly chose to forward.
In the game of Chelsea, this is the most common attack mode. It is the most common way for Chelsea to pass the ball from midfield to Azar. In this regard, Wolfsburg players are obviously very clear, they are also shrinking, immediately gathered near Azar, want to prevent this shot.
Their defense is enough to make Azar have no chance, but in the middle of the circle, Lampard did not choose to give the ball to Azar again. He took a step forward, put his foot on the ground and passed the ball forward to Eto'o, who came back in front of the penalty area.
In this treatment, Lampard did not choose the conventional tactics, but used a more accurate straight plug to give Chelsea a chance! This pass made Eto'o get the ball directly in front of the penalty area, which is what Lampard is all about on the court.
In fact, if you really want to say that, compared with Lampard, David Lewis's technical level is not bad at all. The combination of him and Martini is absolutely the strongest combination of the whole Chelsea. However, he was born as a defender. In terms of offensive skills, he was a bit too sloppy. There were many times when he didn't think much about passing. Compared with Lampard, he is not as good after all, which is also the key reason for this kind of key game, and the most important reason for Jose to use him.
Chelsea is not a team that is very good at attacking and can create a lot of opportunities, so they need to grasp every hard won opportunity. Like David Lewis, when he plays football, he is too impatient and often wants to give the ball without thinking, which is not suitable for them. The more they want to win, the more secure they need to be, and that's what Lampard is all about.
In front of the penalty area, Eto'o, who has received the ball, has approached the penalty area with the ball. At the end of the half-time, Eto'o's spirit was still very good. After he got the ball, he immediately pressed forward with the ball and approached Wolfsburg's penalty area.
Seeing his arrival, Wolfsburg's players are also close to each other: they all know how terrible it is compared with players like Schuller and Eto'o who has the ball at his feet.
This time, Eto'o, standing in front of the penalty area, immediately showed Wolfsburg his excellent level. With the ball, he moves forward carefully. In front of keyar, he seems to be ready to break right, looking for the angle carefully, ready to explode and accelerate. However, after shaking twice in front of keyar, Eto'o took advantage of keyar's small step back to find the right opportunity. Suddenly, he buckled the ball to the left with his right foot and moved one step horizontally in front of the penalty area!
Keyar, standing in front of him, had no way to keep up with the rhythm of his sudden action. He was ready to eat Eto'o's positive, who knew Eto'o had chosen such a foot to avoid the heavy and take the light. He really wanted to catch up with Eto'o and snatched the ball from his feet. However, in the process of dribbling, the continuous smashing of left and right feet was Eto'o's most proud technique. Even if keyar wanted to catch up, how could he catch up?Eto'o suddenly left throw a step, let him in the right side of the penalty area position above, suddenly opened and keyar defense. Although the distance seems to be only one step away, it is impossible for keyar to keep up with him.
For top strikers like Eto'o, even a step away is enough.
At the front of the penalty area, Eto'o didn't hesitate after opening the distance with keyar. He caught up with the football and then kicked it out with a straight flick from his left foot. In the process of shooting, he didn't waste a little time in preparation and adjusting his pace. From smashing to shooting, he only took three steps. Between these three steps, he smashed with his right foot and flicked with his left foot. He showed his technique incisively and vividly.
Although the goal seems not difficult, but the real level is very good. Both of his feet showed great skill, which many players will never be able to achieve. And Eto'o as a left and right foot technology is also skilled master, he can shoot left and right, this is his biggest advantage, enough to let many defensive players off guard.
What's more, in his shot, in addition to his ability to control the ball, his shooting skills were also fully displayed: from the time he just smashed the ball to move one step to the left, in front of him, naldo had already made up for the position. But after Eto'o completely dodged keyar, naldo also blocked his shooting route. Wolfsburg's defense has made great progress after the last game. Compared with before, they have done very well. However, such blocking has not been able to embarrass Eto'o.
In just three short steps, Eto'o not only adjusted his pace, but also used his excellent judgment ability to choose the best shooting angle. Even if naldo's defensive fill is very timely, it is impossible to embarrass Eto'o. His shot went straight over naldo's head, over his head and towards the goal!
Eto'o's basic skills, such as controlling the ball, awareness, left and right footedness, shooting, anticipation, and so on, are all displayed in just three steps. Now, he may not be the cheetah who had the top running speed in those years, but even so, he is still the top attacking expert!
The football flew over naldo's head towards the goal behind him. And the accuracy of this shot, people can't help but sigh. After crossing an arc in the air, the football almost flew to the top left corner of the goal close to the crossbeam, while benalio, who was standing a little far away, could not stop the football route even if he was crazy jumping towards this place.
The football came from the empty space and got into the goal with the roar of the fans!
In the 53rd minute of the second half, Chelsea finally scored their goal. Eto'o's shot finally gave Chelsea the lead!
The big score was made 3-2 by them, and for the first time they started to get the upper hand. Eto'o's goal, let Chelsea finally see the dawn of victory, standing on the edge of the field, Jose also haughtily raised his hands, celebrating his team's lead. The two games add up to more than 140 minutes before Chelsea finally got the lead. He has enough reason to cheer for the hard won lead.
And standing on the field, watching the football fly into the net, Wolfsburg's players can only express their feelings. However, they are not so sad as usual.
Maybe it's because in the last game with Chelsea, they realized that their unstable mentality is the biggest enemy. In the game with Dortmund, they also sharpened themselves. Therefore, in this game, even if they are behind, the players of Wolfsburg still don't despair so quickly.
One goal down is a bit of a headache, but it's not a reason to despair. Last game, Chelsea were able to win the final, but this time, Wolfsburg still have time. In the whole second half, they played at home, not necessarily without goals. What's more, the time has passed 50 minutes, with the passage of time, the physical fitness of the Chelsea players may not be able to keep up.
If he chooses to use the veteran, he will have to bear the trouble brought by the veteran. Looking at the players on the court, Lampard and Wolfsburg, who don't run very fast, are thinking about how to use each other's physical strength.
