Chapter 467： Lost the ball

At the beginning of the second half, Liverpool did, as Mourinho expected, continue to take the initiative to fight.

However, because Mourinho reminded the players during the halftime break, and after the halftime break, the Blues fans have recovered some fitness, so they have well defended Liverpool's offense.

The two sides played a 10-minute fast-paced confrontation. Chelsea continued to shrink its own half to create its own high-pressure defense tactical thinking. This set of defenses once again confirmed Mourinho ’s confidence and frozen Liverpool ’s attack.

After 10 minutes, Yang Cheng waved his hand, the team began to slow down, began to control the ball and adjust more.

This is something that can't be done. If you blindly carry out an ineffective fast break, you will end up wasting your physical energy in vain and giving your opponent more opportunities and chips.

"This **** is really like a tortoise, dead skinned!" Yang Cheng shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Still be careful about Chelsea's counterattack!" Benitez reminded.

Yang Chengke didn't get so disappointed that he thought Chelsea would not shoot the whole game, so as soon as he adjusted, he signaled the players to stabilize the situation and be careful of Chelsea's counterattack.

As if to prove this, Chelsea quickly hit a counterattack on the left.

Galas cut off the ball at Ronaldinho's foot, and the French even directly knocked Ronaldinho who wanted to pass the ball to the ground, and then took the ball forward and handed it to Joe Cole who retreated.

Glen Johnson spotted Joe Cole, but the latter claimed to be the most delicate of England's technology, a flexible get rid of, after passing Glen Johnson, he took the ball on the left.

This was Chelsea's first truly threatening attack of the whole game. The Blues fans on Stamford Bridge stadium immediately burst into a cheers of cheers. They were all looking forward to the team's counterattack, killing Liverpool and ending the fight. .

After taking the ball on the left, Joe Cole faced Carragher who came out to block him. He just used his personal skills. After the kickback flashed off Carragher, he passed the ball to the middle.

Lampard plugged in the back, and under Carrick's interference, the ball was a volley.

This shot came with a strong shot, but the angle was a bit high, Reina jumped high, but still out of reach, the ball directly flew out of the bottom line, Liverpool's goal kick.

"Chelsea finally made his first shot of the game in the 61st minute!" Andy Gray was helpless. "A long shot from outside the restricted area of ​​Lampard turned into an anti-aircraft gun, but we can Seeing that Chelsea started to have a counterattack, this might make the game a little more beautiful. "

It's too frustrating. When the game is completely reduced to a battle of willpower contests, in addition to being nervous, no one will feel good-looking.

The so-called good-looking is the kind of gorgeous goal-scoring battle, mercury-like passing and catching, that is good-looking.

However, this game between Liverpool and Chelsea is simply not good-looking, at best it can be said to be intense.

"Did he finally stick his head out?" Yang Cheng looked at Mourinho outside the coach of the home team.

What he is most afraid of is not the kind of opponent who is willing to fight back and is willing to attack, and the most feared is the kind of opponent who holds a dead mind.

Iron bucket array, that is definitely a nightmare for all attackers!

"Not necessarily!" Benitez shook his head. "It's too early to press it out."

Yang Cheng sighed, he also felt that it was more like a counterattack made by the player spontaneously according to the situation on the court, rather than Mourinho's intentional arrangement.

…………

…………

Carrick is standing in the middle of his own half, about 40 meters in front of the goal. Behind him is the central defender combination of Hepia and Carragher. In front of him, Gerrard and Essien top In front of.

Liverpool players in red jerseys are retreating, waiting for Cech to take the goal kick.

When he attacked just now, Carrick sprinted more than 30 meters forward. As a result, Ronaldinho was shot out of the penalty area by Ronaldinho. He had to run back again. This was just one of the countless turns of the whole game.

But this time, he seemed to have exhausted all his energy. He could clearly feel that his two legs were trembling and lying softly, wanting to fall.

In this game, Chelsea's midfield caused him a lot of trouble. Lampard, Makelele and Tiago locked the midfield firmly, of which Makelele and Tiago were in the back. Lampard moved forward, and it was obvious that he came to Carrick.

Just to get rid of their entanglement, Carrick needs to keep running and tired.

Today, a pair of legs seems to be filled with lead, and the brain cannot drive them as usual.

But when he saw Cech drove the ball out, he immediately raised his head.

Just seeing the ball slowly coming in his own direction, Carrick made a prediction in the first time. He moved a few steps to the left with difficulty. Lampard also reacted for the first time. When he came out, he also guessed where the ball was.

Carrick came to the predicted landing point earlier, ushered in the ball high, shoulders against Lampard, closed his eyes, flicked his head, and desperately pushed the ball forward.

The ball fell to Essien's feet, but the Ghanaian immediately knocked to Gerrard, who directly knocked back because he did not find a suitable pass in front.

The ball goes back and forth between Carragher, Hypia and the full-back.

Carrick gasped for a long time. He just sprinted again to fight with Lampard just now, which made his physical strength almost unbearable, he could only gasp in the distance.

Sweat fell from the hair and the forehead, one by one, and almost infiltrated into his eyes, he reached out and wiped it.

Everyone can see that his physical energy has almost been consumed. He also used Yu Guang to see Yang Cheng on the sidelines shouting at Ashavin. It is obvious that the Russians are going to play to replace Carrick.

This is also a big change for Yang Cheng this season. When Carrick is absent, he will try to make Essien and Gerrard play a double central defender. A shadow striker is placed in front, playing a position near 4231. Tactics, after all, Ashavin and Gerrard have different technical characteristics, and their personal abilities are also different.

As Yang Cheng said when he introduced Ashavin, he was aiming to bring more changes and richer tactics to the team, rather than simply pursuing a main force and a substitute. significance.

Do you want to replace me?

There is a feeling in Carrick's heart. He knows that his physical fitness is almost the same. The boss chose to replace him at this time. It is understandable. After all, he continues to stay on the court and can not make much contribution.

But when he was almost about to accept the fact that he ended up, he suddenly saw Joe Cole not far away. The latter was chasing Glen Johnson, preparing to grab the ball, forcing Glen Johnson to have to put The ball is passed back to Carragher.

He still runs!

Carrick was a little funny in his heart. You know, Joe Cole was not as good as he used to be.

This ratio gave him a sense of fighting spirit.

When he was in West Ham, Joe Cole was the captain. Everyone felt that he was the core of the team for granted, and Carrick was just an assistant serving him, which would be a bit different in Carrick ’s heart. Be convinced.

Now that he has come to Liverpool, he is considered to have achieved something. Should he still lose?

He remembered what Yang Cheng said during the halftime break. He wanted Joe Cole to defeat Lampard!

Thinking of this, he clenched his teeth and ran towards the middle, raising his right hand high, "Here, Jamie!"

Carragher was being disturbed by Crespo. He heard the movement and immediately passed the ball to him.

This is what Yang Cheng emphasized most in training. The pass cannot be stared at the person, but to stare at his running route and pass in front of him, so that he can continue to make moves after receiving the ball more comfortably.

The ball came to Carrick's front. There was no one around him. He slowed down and passed the ball to the captain Gerrard who had retreated.

This is a very smart guy who knows when to come forward and when to come back.

Gerrard took the ball on his back, and behind him was Makelele. He was not sure about heading up the Frenchman, so he knocked back.

Carrick moved forward, facing the ball, the whole situation of the stadium appeared in front of him. He felt that after nearly half an hour of defense in the second half, Chelsea began to consciously move the pressure zone forward, especially It was after Cech just took the goal kick, the ball was always on Liverpool's side, and there was a big gap between their defense and the goal.

Who can get there as soon as possible?

Larsson retreated with Gerald's retreat. Ronaldinho was just coming back to meet Glen Johnson, and the position was also behind. There was only one Robben left in the frontcourt. He always wandered in Ferreira's nearby.

Carrick made the judgment just in a moment.

Spotted the ball, lifted his foot, and made a long diagonal pass.

The ball flew out of his feet, high, but the arc was beautiful and fast enough.

From Liverpool half to Chelsea's penalty zone, there is a full 60 meters or so, the pass is far enough, and it is sudden enough!

Robben also saw Carrick's movements in an instant. He and Carrick have cooperated for so long. It is very clear that he will move after passing the ball, so he chose to rely on Ferreira for the first time.

The Portuguese instinctively felt dangerous, but did not have time to react, just blinked, and saw that Robben had accelerated past his defense.

There was no offside, because in the instant Carrick passed the ball, Robben and Ferreira were at the same position, but they wanted Bitri and Carvalho to be a bit behind, and the explosiveness of the Dutch made him rush When he got up, the speed was scary, and Ferreira didn't have time to respond. He didn't realize that Carrick wanted a long pass. Robben had already passed him and couldn't stop him.

The ball spanned more than half of the court, and landed on the left side of the frontier of the Chelsea penalty area and bounced.

Terry chased over, Robben's speed was very fast, Carvalho also defended on the side. Cech just stood a little outside, but now he is hesitant to attack? Or return to the goal line and hand Robben to Terry and Carvalho?

Robben's speed is very fast, entering the penalty area, Terry also catches up from the side, seeing that he will hit the ball, Robben suddenly hits the ball with his left foot, the ball hits his left instep, as if hit When he reached a wall, he rebounded behind Terry, but Terry couldn't hold back and slid out.

"Pretty, Robben took a very beautiful pick, and shook off Terry ..." Andy Gray couldn't help but marvel at Robben's outstanding kick, which fully showed Robben's outstanding ball sense.

The ball landed on his right side, and Carvalho forced it up for the first time. He knew that Robben's right foot was almost crippled!

But what he didn't know is that Robben was practicing his right foot technique. Although it was still very poor, at least he could do it by picking the ball.

Seeing Robben's right foot pick again, Carvalho's clearance fell to nothing, and the ball returned to Robben's left.

The landing point is also very good, just right for his left foot to exert force, and Cech only felt the threat at this time. The whole person was retreating to the goal line. Obviously he had seen Robben's threat.

But the Dutch didn't let him back, and he just kicked a free kick. The Czech jumped high, hoping to stop it, but he couldn't reach it. The ball crossed the top of his head, almost rubbing the beam, and fell into it. Goal.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLL !!!" Andy Gray roared wildly.

"Aryan Giben, in the 77th minute, after receiving a long pass from the backcourt, showed his outstanding football skills at the front of Chelsea's penalty area. After continuously picking the ball, he scored an arc and shot through Chelsea. Goal! "

The live TV shot was aimed at Robben, the hero of the goal. The Dutch rushed out of the penalty area almost for the first time, his hands spread open, and the whole person rushed out of the stadium excitedly, making a fist punching action, rushing towards the stands The fans, are not sure whether it is Chelsea or Liverpool fans, excited roar.

"It's so beautiful! Carrick made a long pass in the backcourt and sent the ball directly to Chelsea's penalty area. Robben used his speed and skill to send the ball under the envelope of Terry and Carvalho. Entering Chelsea's goal, this is a manifestation of a very good personal ability. "

Speaking of which, Andy Gray couldn't help laughing. "Liverpool now really makes people have to admire. Whether it is the overall strength or the personal abilities of the stars, they blend in very well, and they can always maintain the height of the game. Concentration, the team's overall technical and tactics have also reached maturity, the only thing missing is an outbreak! "

"I remember that when someone interviewed Yang Cheng before and asked about Liverpool's performance this season, Yang Cheng said a very confusing word, and accumulated a lot of words, saying that they are Chinese idioms. Obviously, he thinks that the current Liverpool are still in the accumulation stage, accumulating game experience, accumulating player tacit understanding, accumulating star strength, etc., and even the club is accumulating financial strength. "

"We have to admire Yang Cheng's plan for the team, because the team he leads can always show gratifying progress and strength in the face of doubts. It makes people believe that they are walking in a developing way. On the road. "

When Andy Gray spoke, the live TV footage had already played two slow shots of goals from different angles, and then aimed at the Liverpool players on the sidelines, and saw Robben and others celebrating the goals on the sidelines.

They played against Chelsea for more than an hour, but this tenacious team simply relied on the defense of the iron barrel to prevent them from scoring. Now that they have scored, it is necessary to stimulate them with the most unscrupulous celebrations. .

Look, how can you defend, even if you put all 11 players in the goal, we still have a way to get the ball in!

Mourinho looked very angry, because just when he was just about to start the counterattack, the team lost the ball, and he couldn't tell who was the wrong one. It was so **** depressing!

You know, not losing the ball is the first principle of his fight in this game. All his tactical ideas are based on not losing the ball, because he knows better than anyone. The goal will be changed by Liverpool and the game will change. It's very, very hard to beat.

Chelsea is not good at attacking and has weak forwards, which everyone knows.

Now that I lost the ball, how do I play next?

He has only one choice, the only choice, press it out!

"*** Asshole!" Mourinho really wanted to yell at him.

On the contrary, Yang Cheng was on the side, excited and high-five with the assistants and players around him. Although Liverpool took the advantage, he did not have absolute confidence in scoring because he was facing Mourinho.

But now, his players tell him by action that Liverpool can beat him down no matter who they face!

The only regret is that Ashavin, who went back after warming up and found that the team scored a goal, stood there to celebrate with his teammates, then looked at Yang Cheng stupefiedly and asked timidly, "Boss, I Is it still on? "

Suddenly Yang Cheng woke up and hinted that he should never be confused.

"Go up, why not go up?" Yang Cheng took Ashawen's shoulder directly and leaned in. "Old rules, after going up, you can play freely, but watch the Tiago, Portuguese, No. 30." , He can't do it anymore, go up and kill him! "

Yang Cheng's expression and tone of life were more like a main messenger who instigated the other party to kill, but the murderer Ashavin kept nodding and was absolutely loyal to Yang Cheng's arrangement and arrangement.

"Remember, when advancing, advancing from the side, Robben and Ronaldinho come, understand?"

The personal capabilities of these two wing players prompted them to complete the task of dribbling as long as they had space.

Soon, taking the chance of a dead ball, Ashavin went up and replaced Carrick.

When the Englishman came off the stage, he was cheered by Liverpool fans and came to Yang Cheng. After embracing the coach, he was appreciated by Yang Cheng.

But at the same time, Chelsea is making adjustments, and Mourinho also took advantage of this opportunity to replace Crespo with Wright Phillips, obviously it is to strengthen the offense.

As Yang Cheng said, in Chelsea's tactics, Crespo's type of center is very poor. This is the reason why the Argentine forward has performed poorly this season. It is better to use Wright Phillips or Barrow. Even this type of speed will be more threatening.

Seeing that Mourinho had replaced Wright Phillips, Yang Cheng immediately gestured towards Gerrard, instructing him to stabilize the situation, do n’t be greedy, and hand off the attack to the four players in the frontcourt, He and Essien wanted to guard against Chelsea's counterattack.

But in his heart, his idea was to score another goal!
