Chapter 816

If there is a word to describe the mood of the players back in the dressing room, it would be better than the rest of their lives.

They are like a group of survivors who have just escaped from a disaster. They sit in front of the wardrobe, gasping, looking at the team-mates around them, secretly celebrating the favor of the goddess of luck.

In the first half, Chelsea's performance was disastrous, but it wasn't how bad the blues were, it was that Manchester City were too strong.

Almost from the first minute of the game, blue moon firmly controlled the situation on the field and did not leave many opportunities for Chelsea. Instead, it repeatedly entered the restricted area of Chelsea and even threatened the goal, which made the blues all run for their lives.

As early as in the league, they have felt the terrible strength of Manchester City, but did not expect that this game they performed better, played more smoothly than in the league, also more tacit understanding.

The players of Chelsea try very hard to destroy the pass control of Manchester City, but they can't help it. No matter which Manchester City player takes the ball, there are endless receiving points around. Even they have some doubts. Even if the players of Manchester City close their eyes, they know where to pass the ball, which makes them feel relieved.

Without control, they are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered and can only be beaten passively.

Manchester City's front court offensive players strength is also quite terrible, a single season total goals over 100, whether it is personal ability, or with tacit understanding, people feel extremely scared.

Just imagine, how terrible is it that even substitute forward sturrich can score 20 goals in a single season?

As a last resort, in the face of Manchester City's strong offensive, Chelsea can only shrink their defense, but even so, they are still broken through the defense again and again, directly threatening the goal.

But luck is clearly on the side of Chelsea today.

One miscalculation, two pillars, three crossbeams, Manchester City missed the chance to score six times in the first half, which made the opponents feel very funny, because it was too bad luck.

I missed six goals in 45 minutes, which is really out of luck.

However, after laughing at Manchester City, the whole team felt deeply worried again because they only had 15 minutes and the second half was about to start.

The situation in the first half, Manchester City in the second half will continue to increase the intensity of attack, they can bear it?

Soon, a touch of anxiety filled the air in the dressing room.

Scolari pushed the door in and immediately felt the atmosphere. With rich experience in coaching, he immediately understood what was going on. He also knew that as the head coach, he had to do something to restore the team's morale.

I just saw him stop at the entrance, think about it, and walk quickly to the players' rest area.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the performance in the first half was excellent and I am very satisfied."

Scolari's first words let all the players look over one after another, and even showed a puzzled look.

Is it outstanding to be beaten so badly by Manchester City? Satisfied?

Scolari put out his hand and wiped the thick moustache on his upper lip. "Maybe people will think it's strange, or even suspect that I said it on purpose, but what I want to tell you is that you really performed very well."

After a meal, Scolari took a deep look at the players and continued.

"Manchester City is a very good team, in the first half it did have the advantage, but our defense has brought a lot of pressure on the other side, so their players always make mistakes at the critical moment."

"We often say that football matches need some luck, but once is luck, but twice, three or four, is that still luck? It can only be said that there must be something wrong with this team, otherwise, how could it be like this? "

Scolari's words are really persuasive. As a player, no one is willing to admit that he is far inferior to his opponent. Therefore, after listening to Scolari's words, they feel that it is very reasonable.

Isn't it?

Five hits on the post and crossbeam, is that really luck?

As professional players, they know very well that most of the technical movements they have practiced since childhood don't know how many times, and they can become top stars. Everyone has excellent technical skills and psychological quality. It is absolutely rare that they hit the column crossbeam five times in a row like in the first half.

"So, what causes them to have such problems?" Scolari asked everyone what they were wondering.

Soon, the Brazilian coach gave his own answer.

"That's our defensive pressure. We put pressure on them to make some mistakes in making key judgments, or to make subtle changes in their technical movements, which led to them hitting the post and crossbar five times."

Many people on the scene nodded gently and began to believe what Scolari said.

"That's why I said that we played very well and our opponents are under great pressure, especially after the first half. If you don't believe me, you can think about Cristiano Ronaldo's yellow card at the end of the first half."

The Portuguese's desire to win is very strong, but more or less impatient, which has been exposed during the period of Inter Milan's playing. However, after arriving at Manchester City, he became more and more calm under the cold training, which is also the reason why his goals soared this season. But at the end of the first half, he obviously reappeared.

If you miss the chance to score six times, everyone will feel depressed and even frustrated, not to mention Cristiano Ronaldo who is easy to become anxious.

"I want to remind you that this is our opportunity."

"It's a fatal injury if we can't attack for a long time. Although Manchester City's performance in the first half was excellent, there was too much psychological pressure. In the second half, we should continue to adhere to the tactics of the first half, and even continue to strengthen the team's defense, wait for the opportunity, wait for the opponent to show his flaws, and then launch a surprise counter attack to break the goal of Manchester City."

Scolari's strategy has been recognized by all players, which is also the most pragmatic tactical play at this stage.

What's more, in the first half, it was not that Chelsea didn't fight back.

And the Brazilian manager's words, so that all the eyes of the Chelsea players are rekindled with the hope of winning.

…………

"To tell you the truth, with our performance in the first half, I believe that any head coach in the world would be very satisfied, because we completely controlled the situation on the field, held the absolute advantage, and even tore open the opponent's defense again and again, creating the opportunity to score points."

"Maybe we had a bad luck tonight, one miscalculation, two pillars, three beams. We were completely fooled by God, but it has nothing to do with our performance."

Manchester City's dressing room, all the players are quietly watching the coach Gao Han, listening to his words, but confused.

Is this praise? Or criticism?

"You don't have to guess. The whole world is satisfied, but I'm not." The high cold gives the answer directly.

This makes everyone feel awe inspiring.

"It's not the performance we should have, it's not the city I want to see, because what I saw in the first half was not an overwhelming advantage, it was immaturity

When Gao Han said that, looking at Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese knew his problem for a long time, and immediately lowered his head and did not dare to look at Gao Han.

"Cristiano, I wonder if you don't have faith in me?"

Portuguese surprised, Huo Di jumped up from the seat, "no... no, boss, I..."

Gao Han raised his right hand, indicating that he did not need to say, "then why are you so impatient? Do you think I can't see the situation clearly? I can't adjust the team? "

Everyone in the dressing room was silent.

Looking around the world, if you dare to question Cristiano Ronaldo face to face, you can make the Portuguese feel at a loss. I'm afraid it's just the cold.

"And you, how many times have I yelled on the sidelines? I told you, the rhythm is faster, slow down, don't worry, but do you hear me? You attack each other's goal again and again, and they all create a threat, but what's the result? "

Gao Han went over and patted Cristiano Ronaldo on the shoulder, motioning him to sit back.

"If it is excusable to say that misjudgment is the reason of the referee, then there is a bit of luck in two columns and three beams, but a very important factor is that there are some problems in our own mentality."

"I don't deny that our attack is very sharp, the ball in the back court is very good, and the midfield can also organize and plan a threatening attack, but our mentality is obviously too anxious. We want to eat our opponents, but the more we think about it, the more we can't eat it."

"We Chinese have an old saying that you can't be fat with a bite. Rome wasn't built in a day."

Everyone, including Cristiano Ronaldo, began to reflect after listening to Gao's words.

The Portuguese asked himself that he was really worried, especially after the first half, which made him get an unnecessary yellow card. It is estimated that this is the reason why the boss is most angry.

Two columns and three beams, seemingly luck, but in fact it is not without the psychological factors of the players.

In order to score, when starting some deliberately to pursue the angle.

As a scorer, he is very clear that goals are a matter of course, sometimes the more deliberate pursuit, the more difficult it is to score, so there is a shortage of goals.

"I've told you more than once that the competition on the football field is not only about the body and tactics, but also here." Alpine hard to poke his temples, "only with the brain kicker, can laugh to the end."

"What the opponents want us to do now is to continue the offensive in the first half. They will defend and counterattack wholeheartedly, and we will expose fatal flaws in the end, but we certainly can't let them do so."

"In the second half, we should slow down the pace appropriately, control the ball patiently, look for opportunities patiently, don't worry, and focus on stability. As long as we firmly grasp the ball control right, it is equivalent to disarming the opponent, and you certainly know better than me how much the attack on the opponent will be."

"So, we need to be more patient and smarter than our opponents, and don't be controlled by your emotions."

Gao's words are also recognized by all the players.

If a team leader fails to touch the football for a long time, the psychological impact on the players is very big, even devastating.

It's like a revolver with only one bullet in it. Both sides bet their lives.

Originally, it was agreed to shoot each other in turn to see who was unlucky, but now the gun is firmly controlled by the other party, and it is still shooting itself. Who can bear the pressure?

"You must believe me, there will only be one winner in this game, that is Manchester City

High cold ground has a voice, sonorous and forceful say.
