Lin Mo could see that Manchester City in the League Cup last season was not the full-strength Manchester City.
They only started to exert their strength in the second half, but the pressure they brought was still insufficient, and they were upset by Leicester City 4:2.
The League Cup is the League Cup after all, how much more important it can be.
Starting from Everton in the Premier League, the intensity has obviously risen to a higher level than the League Cup!
If it was just an ordinary 50-star ranking before, now it is completely a peak game with more than 2,000 points!
From the first minute of the game, the iron-blooded blue army made Leicester City a little exhausted!
"The game started at a fast pace, and Chelsea's continuous steals made newly promoted Leicester City lose their composure"
"Mistakes continued! Another wingback's pass was intercepted! Chelsea launched an attack on the spot!"
"Azhar! King A's breakthrough! He passed two defenders in a row and the middle gate was wide open!!"
"Diego Costa!"
To be honest, when Diego Costa received the pass from Azhar near the penalty spot,
Lin Mo's heart was inevitably twitched.
Fortunately, Shengshi Meiyan didn't seem to expect that Azhar could pass it over. He stood too close to the ball and kicked it directly over the crossbar.
Schmeichel didn't even have time to react and breathed a sigh of relief standing on the goal line.
"Less than a minute into the game, Leicester City made two fatal mistakes and almost allowed Chelsea to seize the opportunity!"
"Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams."
Only then did Zhan Jun have the opportunity to announce the starting lineups.
"The home team Chelsea adopted a 4-5-1 formation, which is also the system Mourinho is good at.
The goalkeeper is Courtois, who was just recalled from Atletico Madrid on loan. The back line is Ivanovic, Gary Cahill, captain John Terry, Azpilicueta; the three midfielders are Matic, Ramires, Fabregas; the two wingers are Azar and Schurrle; the lone striker is Diego Costa!"
Zhan Jun was terrified when he saw this lineup, and couldn't help but sweat for Leicester City.
The defense line is the team of the 2012 Champions League champions.
Goalkeeper Courtois is a famous goalkeeper. The 237 defensive midfielder Matic is in his prime and was the midfielder with the most interceptions in the Premier League last season.
Diego Costa on the striker has already proven his worth in Atletico Madrid and is also in his prime with outstanding goal-scoring ability.
The most critical one is the absolute core of the team, No. 10 player, Eden Azhar!
Azhar's skills have become more and more superb in recent years, and he is recognized by the media as the third best player in the world after Messi and Ronaldo!
The clues can be seen from his breakthrough just now.
He first used the wing The ball was intercepted by the defender's mistake, and then the wing defender was easily dribbled past the wing defender. The central defender Liam Moore who came to make up for the defense was like a wooden stake in front of the King of Football, and was fooled by the realistic fake move. The double-team of Wes Morgan and Drinking Water Brother could not stop Azhar, and the fried meatballs under his feet made space and passed two people!
In fact, the King of Football could have shot, but he still gave the ball to Costa who was unguarded within a radius of 5 meters.
Lin Mo's tactical arrangement was to guard Fabregas who was inserted in the back row, but it was too late to rush over.
Fortunately, Costa fired the anti-aircraft gun and the alarm was lifted.
But Lin Mo knew that this was only Chelsea's first tentative attack!
"As for Leicester City, the victory in the last round made coach Pearson stick to the 3-5-2 formation, goalkeeper Schmeichel, defenders Liam Moore, Wes Morgan, and Wasilewski; wingbacks Konchesky and Rich Delater; midfielders
Lin Mo, Drinkward, and Andy King; forwards David Nugent and Jamie Vardy."
After looking at the Chelsea lineup and then looking at Leicester City, except for the dazzling Lin Mo and the spirited Vardy, the rest are just a bunch of scraps.
The fragile back line is not vulnerable at all.
Before Coach Zhang could comment on the lineup, Leicester City's attack was interrupted again.
Lin Mo wanted to make a two-on-one cooperation with Brother Drinking Water in the middle to open up the gap and seek development on the wing, but Brother Drinking Water just stopped the ball and adjusted, and the ball was poked away by Ramirez again!
Ramirez passed it to (cjcd) Fabregas.
The former Arsenal captain, Fabregas, who was determined to return to La Masia, did not seem to be happy in Barcelona.
With the iron triangle of Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets, plus the emergence of new players such as Thiago, and the presence of the king of football like Messi,
Fabregas has no chance of becoming the core with ball possession, and can only be a screw in the lineup.
This is incomparable to his absolute status in the Arsenal period.
After sitting on the bench for a long time, Fabregas seems to have lost the spirituality of 16 years old and has become slightly mediocre.
But this does not mean that he has become bad!
Fabregas actually predicted Lin Mo's [Chariot Tackle] in advance!
Before the 0.5 second hard control took effect, Fabregas passed the ball in advance!
Lin Mo shoveled nothing!
""What the hell?"
Is this a world-class master?
"Lin Mo's tackle! Oops! The ball has been passed!"
There was a cry of surprise at Stamford Bridge. The fans thought the ball was going to be intercepted, but Lin Mo's tackle caused a gap behind him!
Azhar appeared in the middle like a ghost, received the ball and easily passed the defensive Drinking Water Brother.
Facing the interception of the defender, Azhar dodged an angle and shot directly!
"Azhar!!"
The powerful long-range shot came, and Schmeichel was terrified and flew to save it!
He barely blocked the ball!
"Schmeichel’s amazing save… but it’s not over yet!"
Zhan Jun was about to praise him when he saw a figure in a blue jersey appear at the spot!
It wasn’t a Leicester City player!
Leicester City was wearing the second white away jersey, and the blue one belonged to the home team Chelsea!
"Shit!!"
Falling to the ground, the moment he saw Diego Costa, Schmeichel felt despair.
"Diego Costa scored a goal with a follow-up shot in the penalty area!"
"At the 4th minute of the game, the home team Chelsea took the lead!"
Powerlessness, a deep feeling of powerlessness enveloped the hearts of Leicester City fans.
Judging from the dejected expressions of the back line, the Leicester City defenders felt the same way.
In the League Cup final against Manchester City, there was indeed this suffocating feeling of oppression in the second half of the game.
But at that time, they were already leading 3:2, so they were not too panicked.
Moreover, Manchester City wasted too many opportunities and failed to seize the ball due to its high possession rate.
Chelsea is different (to read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
They pay attention to the ultimate offensive efficiency, and the strength and hardness of the midfield are unique in the Premier League.
If Mancini's technical Manchester City last season was similar to the beautiful Baguazhang,
Chelsea is the fierce Bajiquan!
A sudden step-over elbow directly hit Leicester City's eyes black and almost fainted.[]
……
"It seems that Mourinho really values Lin Mo. He adopted different strategies to restrict him."
After leading by one goal, Chelsea played more calmly, while Leicester City was constrained everywhere and was exhausted.
The defensive pressure was full, but it was difficult to counterattack.
Coach Zhang observed for a while and found the tactics arranged by Chelsea.
"They adopted a high-pressure approach similar to Atletico Madrid, so from the beginning to now, they have been forcing Leicester City to make mistakes in the backcourt."
"As for Lin Mo, they only sent Ramirez to harass him, while more people were restricting Lin Mo's teammates."
"As long as Lin Mo can't get the ball, it will be difficult to organize a decent attack."
Mourinho sat in the coaching seat, as if he had returned to the omnipotent magic bird.
Humph, since it's hard to restrict you, can't you restrict your teammates?
Football is not something that can be played by one person.
……
Lin Mo certainly didn't get discouraged when the team fell behind.
It's not like he's never fallen behind before.
If he can't get the ball, he can just focus on defense and help his teammates share the pressure.
"Chelsea's attack was once again given to Azhar, who planned to cut in from the middle to seek a breakthrough……"
Last season, the English dribbling king, averaging 6.4 successful dribbles per game and a 75% success rate,
Azar felt that the Leicester City players were quite boring and did not inspire him to challenge them at all.
He was about to dribble and change direction to dribble past his opponent, but at the moment the ball was kicked, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis!
"hiss——"
Azhaer reacted quickly and pulled the ball back.
Only then did he look up at his opponent.
The person in front of him was not the guy who"drank water", but a young Asian face!
The height of 185cm was like a wall in front of Azhaer!
For a while, he couldn't find a good breakthrough angle!
Lin Mo?
The new star praised by the media as the"Great Wall of China"!
Hey, interesting!
"Lin Mo! He switched defense with Brother Drinking Water, and faced Azhaer 1v1!"
The best defender vs the best dribbler!
Zhan Jun couldn't help but feel excited!
Azhaer on the field was moving forward with the ball in small steps, lowering his shoulders to test, but Lin Mo stood still, without any flaws!
At this time, he could obviously pass the ball back to his teammates to organize, but Azhaer was excited and wanted to���This Asian guy!
But I always feel that no matter which direction I go, I will be intercepted by the other party.
"Fuck-it! Let's take a chance!"
Azhaer suddenly lowered his shoulders to the left, then slammed the ball to the right, but Lin Mo seemed to have anticipated it and had already blocked his route with his foot!
Azhaer quickly pulled the ball back, and took the opportunity to change direction to the left for the second time!
The strange thing was that Lin Mo, after losing his balance, seemed to teleport and blocked Azhaer again!
"WTF?"
Isn't this against the laws of physics?
How can a normal person get back so quickly when he stretches his foot to move his center of gravity?
Unprepared, Azhaer bumped into Lin Mo, and the ball under his feet was poked away!
In the eyes of outsiders, the game between the two people that lasted for a long time just now was decided in a flash!
"Lin Mo, without any adjustments this time, went straight to Vardy in front!"
"Beautiful! Chelsea's defense is not in place yet! Vardy is not offside at all!"
【All-round pass!】
The moment Lin Mo used his special move, he had already seen a flaw in the opponent's dense defensive line! He kicked confidently and passed the ball to the ground for more than 45 meters! He directly broke through the triple defense of Ramirez, Matic and Terry!
Vardy took advantage of Terry's slow turn due to old age and predicted the start in advance. The moment he received the ball, he stepped forward!
"One-on-one chance!! Vardy faces Courtois!"
Leicester City fans all stood up excitedly!
Chinese fans were also very excited!
Lin Mo is going to assist again this time!
The surgical knife-like straight pass, except for"awesome", really can't think of an adjective!
However, the next second, Vardy's one-on-one chance was destroyed by Courtois's outstretched foot, and flew out of the bottom line by brushing the post!
"Missed a single opportunity!!"
Zhan Jun couldn't believe it, his tone was full of regret.
"Courtois' height advantage plays a big role!"
"Vardy deliberately aimed at the near corner and shot at the far corner, but it was still a little bit short and was blocked by the toe!"
"This is a great opportunity for Leicester City to equalize the score!"
The fans at Stamford Bridge felt like they were on a roller coaster, and their hearts finally settled down.
Lin Mo's penetrating pass just now almost made them suffocate!
Even though they didn't score, they were still scared to death!
"It’s a pity, but Leicester City did not surrender under the strong pressure!"
"They may threaten Chelsea's goal at any time!"
Lin Mo's pass gave his teammates hope and made the fans see the possibility of winning again! Can the newly promoted Leicester City, an underdog team, perform a miracle again and defeat the strong with the weak?
With Lin Mo, there is hope!
