Midfielder
Chapter 383
Either kill the enemy with one blow, or never do it, otherwise, you really don't know what the consequences will be.
However, this sentence is obviously not suitable for use in football matches. On the turf, offense and defense are only completed in an instant.
Don't let Chelsea recover from the low ebb. I guess Ancelotti has never heard of this sentence, but he no longer has to verify the authenticity of this sentence, because those crazy people have proven it with facts. This sentence is the truth. After equalizing the score, Chelsea began to fight AC Milan desperately to the end.
When the score was tied, the rhythm that was controlled by AC Milan just now became a tug-of-war mode.
Calling it a tug-of-war is actually a bit unfair, because after Chelsea scored a goal, they now began to exert force in the midfield. They had recovered from the disadvantageous situation just now, and even had the upper hand for a time.
This is also Mourinho's command from the sidelines. He did not ask Lampard to continue to press. At this time, neither side had any absolute chance, so he brought the three lines closer and compressed the distance between the midfield and the backfield as much as possible. .
This not only prevents the opponent's attack from being played smoothly, but also allows Chelsea's players to better take advantage of their physical strength. Since the Italians can't hit the counterattack they want, then this game The rhythm of confrontation was brought back to their side, causing them to lose the game habits they were most familiar with.
In fact, sometimes tactical arrangements are secondary. The most important thing is that Lin Yi's goal awakened everyone, not only the fans, but more importantly, he mobilized the offensive enthusiasm of the entire Chelsea team.
If he disappeared just now and Chelsea's offense came to a standstill, and now this kid suddenly appears again, then you must not think that he just had a flash of inspiration and that this is not how he went crazy.
Moreover, the success of the attack just now really made AC Milan more worried. The pressure and assists from the two wingers were completely retracted. The most important thing was the right wing guarded by Cafu. Now he can only focus on defense.
Cafu didn't want his defensive area to become the opponent's offensive corridor. That was a mistake just now. In fact, he did a good job in the first twenty minutes, but the Brazilian's nature is to prefer offense.
But now this nature has to be tempered temporarily. Facing Chelsea's counterattack, Cafu can only choose to stick to it.
After all, he still had to keep an eye on the Dutch kid who was going crazy. He didn't want the other side to take advantage of him continuously.
After Robben completed an assist from here, he began to enjoy the feeling of roaming on the wing more and more, but he did enjoy it. Old Cafu suffered a lot. He often had to face Robben's unreasonable attitude. straight line breakthrough.
Less than two minutes after the score was equalized, Lin Yi escaped Gattuso's fierce interception in the midfield, but he did not continue to move forward. After all, he was not only facing Pirlo, who was not very defensive, but also Seedorf. Now that he has withdrawn, if he gets entangled with them, he will most likely have to face the flanking defense of three people during this breakthrough.
Lin Yi didn't think he could take advantage every time. After getting rid of Gattuso, he didn't hesitate and sent the pass directly with the arch of his foot. The precise passing route directly found Luo Luo, who was already on the wing. Book.
Robben stopped the ball near the sideline. He was now facing a court veteran who had already taken a defensive posture. However, Robben did not let his speed slow down. He was always dribbling the ball at high speed.
move! As Robben was dribbling the ball forward, he suddenly dunked inward, as if he had already planned to cut inside. This made Cafu turn sideways to block his way, but Robben's instep directly followed the trend and accelerated towards the baseline. .
Damn it! When Cafu saw Robben's fake move, he could only choose to chase after him, and he deliberately chose to block his inward route. However, when Robben was still a few steps away from the baseline, he directly started to pass. middle.
Robben didn't even intend to cut inside and then shoot. He was just using this short sprint to find opportunities for crosses. Now he doesn't need to be a terminator. The elephant in the penalty area is in front of the goal. Killer.
Cafu had nothing to do when faced with a choice like Robben's. Although the cross did not pose much of a threat, Cafu still felt a little embarrassed when he looked back and saw the expressions of his teammates.
After all, he was once a candidate for the best right back in the world, but now he is so unscrupulously broken by a young boy. I guess whoever replaces him will have to be a little embarrassed. Cafu is in such a state now.
He can judge the other party's intentions based on experience, but sometimes, he can judge it, but he may not be able to stop it. People's legs age first. This is the law of nature. Even Cafu, who is said to be immortal, has to obey. old.
When faced with a breakthrough like Robben's that makes no sense, Cafu does feel a bit struggling now.
And this scene has not appeared once before. It happened continuously in the five or six minutes after Chelsea scored.
There are no fancy moves. Sometimes Robben looks for opportunities in fake moves such as cutting inside and going under. After all, Cafu is already in his 30s. He cannot always maintain this high-speed sprinting defensive posture.
Robben didn't care about his success rate, especially when Lin Yi consciously handed the ball to him. For no other reason than to hope that Robben would use such an impactful kicking method to make Cafu consume a lot of energy in a short period of time. physical fitness.
A young man in his early twenties faced an old defender who was already approaching his twilight years. Even though Cafu was once the only one in European football, he could not withstand such an unreasonable sprint. In just five or six minutes, Robben had already wreaked havoc here several times. That kind of wind-like speed really made Cafu a little overwhelmed.
It’s not that Cafu can’t defend him, but in this kind of defense with no skills and completely relying on speed, Cafu always has to spend a lot of effort to block the inside and prevent Robben from completing overtaking and cutting inside, which makes him a little exhausted.
Pirlo even sometimes has to assist in defense to limit Robben’s unscrupulous breakthrough, but the Dutch little flying man doesn’t care whether he can pass the opponent or not. He often passes and breaks through at the same time.
After Lin Yi scored, this kind of cross from the wing began to appear frequently above AC Milan. Different from the style of play after the opening, the cross now is more of a fast and flat one, which often makes AC Milan's central defenders scratch their heads. Nesta's header clearance almost became an own goal that broke his own goal.
Robben is too used to sending such tricky passes, and Drogba can finally enjoy the treatment of a pure center forward. His header advantage in the opponent's penalty area began to frequently create trouble for the goal guarded by Dida.
Although Stam is still hovering around Drogba, one is attacking and the other is defending. The competition between the same strong bodies is the judgment of the landing point and the confrontation of blocking. Stam is actually not really taking advantage now.
Originally, it would take a lot of effort for him to block Drogba's impact. Now that Robben has sent so many crosses on the wing, Stam can only go all out and fight with the opponent, but this kind of physical confrontation is basically a 50-50.
Just like before, Robben failed to shake off Cafu's defense, but his short-distance cross-court pass still passed the Brazilian's defense and hit the small penalty area directly. This time, Stam failed to catch the elephant.
Drogba jumped up and headed the ball less than five meters away from the goal, and the strength of the header was quite fierce, but this time he headed it a little too hard, and Dida subconsciously raised his hand to lift the ball over the crossbar.
However, this also made Dida sweat coldly. If the header had a little more angle, the consequences would be disastrous. Dida also reminded Stam loudly, "Don't let that guy have such a header opportunity again!"
This was also the first time that the Brazilian goalkeeper lost his temper with his teammates. There was no way. He was indeed a little nervous now, especially after Lin Yi used such a playful shot to break through the ten fingers, his nerves were always very tense.
Stam did not show any dissatisfaction in the face of such shouting, after all, he did make a mistake just now.
But Stam was still a little depressed, but that was only because Drogba's frequent attacks caused a lot of trouble for his defense. He had no choice but to try his best to pull the strong African elephant.
Stam didn't want the next ball to be lost in his own defense area, but in the corner kick that Chelsea took, Drogba and Terry's double-ghost knock on the door made Stam and Nesta sweat again.
Before the game, many people said that Chelsea's set-pieces are always their killer weapon. Terry, Drogba, Lampard, Carvalho, Gallas, including Ferreira, these big guys will cause you a lot of trouble.
Just now, Drogba rushed to the front point, and Stam followed, but neither of them could get the first point, but Terry, who was ambushing behind them, followed up in time, and his header just brushed the post and flew out.
After Terry's header went wide, he waved his hand depressed, but compared to him, Nesta might be more depressed.
Nesta actually wanted to stop Terry, but the difference in jump is not a flaw that can be easily made up. When Terry rushed up, it was really difficult for Nesta to win the header with his jumping ability.
Although the height of the two people is almost the same, Nesta's knee has been injured, which also limits his performance in the header, while Terry is in his best condition. It is almost obvious who is better.
Usually, Nesta relies more on experience and Stam's assistance in defense, but today these two prerequisites are not met. Stam is busy with his own affairs. Similarly, Terry is not inferior in on-the-spot experience.
Nesta also knows that in the next few dozen minutes, whenever there is such a set-piece opportunity, he will face Terry's impact. Whether he can defend this high-altitude bombing, he probably doesn't know it in his heart.
There are too many high points for the opponent to compete for headers. It is simply impossible to defend. If you focus on this one, you may miss that one. The opponent can have five or six people to form a threat of header attack, which is simply too deadly.
This is the problem that Ancelotti has been worried about. Compared with the average height of their own defense line, Chelsea has a clear advantage. High-altitude bombing, this simple and direct method, can be their most sharp offensive means. The average height is three or four centimeters higher, which is a big trouble and a hidden danger for the defense line.
In the first 20 minutes, Chelsea did not get such corner kicks and free kicks close to the goal, but from now on, they will use more and more such attacks to threaten AC Milan's goal.
Crossing balls, free kicks, corner kicks, the bombardment brought by this kind of attack will continue to test Dida and his team's nerves in the next game. Don't think that if you dodge the first time, you can dodge the second time. This is not possible.
Such shots not only make AC Milan's players nervous, but also make the Italian fans in the stands and in front of the TV nervous. They are worried about their team in these two consecutive header attacks.
Sacchi, who had been boasting before, is not as swaying as he was just now. As a head coach, he also knows that once this game is dragged into such a stalemate, the competition is all-round confrontation.
In terms of positional attack, Sacchi is able to support his old club, but it is obvious that in terms of headers, there may not be many countries in the entire European continent that are better at doing this than English players.
There is no way, long passes have always been the specialty of the English, and that skill has been honed for hundreds of years.
Especially after Chelsea's momentum came up, AC Milan's defense was not as stable as it was at the beginning. Just like these two headers, they began to make unnecessary mistakes in defense.
The most fatal thing is not this. The pressure of defense must come from the unfavorable offense. When the opponent can free up his hands to suppress you, this is the most dangerous. Now AC Milan can't find any opportunities in the frontcourt.
If they can fight the counterattack in the first 20 minutes, then now, the activity space of Kaka and Seedorf and others is very badly suppressed by Mourinho's compression tactics, and it can even be said to be a bit embarrassing.
The back line is 10 meters forward and the midfield is compressed 10 meters backward. In the distance between the center circle and the penalty area, Chelsea relies on Mourinho's instructions to stockpile heavy troops in order to curb the opponent's penetration and running.
Mourinho can even withdraw Lampard. You can imagine how much this guy wants to control the midfield. After AC Milan used a counterattack to score a goal at the beginning, he doesn't want this scene to repeat again.
Squeeze them! This is Mourinho's request, let these guys stay away from the defense line as much as possible, away from their own penalty area, let the opponent extend the offensive starting point to the midfield, which will bring more reaction opportunities to the team.
The opening mistake was because Chelsea's defensive players retreated too far back and could not intercept the opponent in time, allowing those guys to run and respond calmly. Now, Mourinho is going to cut off their free passage.
Not only that, while cutting off the opponent's offensive connection, Mourinho also asked Lin Yi to frequently cause trouble for the opponent in the midfield, and that kid is doing this now. This little lunatic has gone crazy.
Lin Yi dared to provoke Gattuso after scoring a goal. He was not afraid of that guy's tight defense against him. Originally, he was hiding from this guy before, not because he was afraid of him, but just in exchange for the opportunity to capture the opponent's defensive loopholes.
After all, a strong attack has a price to pay, but this kind of sudden counterattack can often kill the opponent with a fatal knife. Now that the score has been tied, there is nothing to say, isn't it just a competition of the strength of both sides?
Lin Yi was never afraid of anyone on the court, including the bearded man in front of him. He just thought about how to rush past the opponent. As for how the opponent would defend himself, Lin Yi never thought about it.
Either you are not afraid of fouling me, or you watch me pass you. Lin Yi doesn't care what Gattuso will do now. He is just thinking about what trouble he can cause to the opponent every time he gets the ball.
In the first 20 minutes, Lin Yi may have only made more than 20 passes, but in the short 10 minutes after the goal, there have been more than a dozen threatening passes from his feet, each of which made AC Milan's defense very uncomfortable.
Moreover, Lin Yi was not confined to the attack in the middle at all. He was still wandering around, which made Gattuso very uncomfortable when defending. He couldn't help but follow Lin Yi, but once he left the middle, Pirlo would face Lampard's impact.
Don't expect Pirlo to have any defensive ability. He is a conductor, not a midfield butcher like Gattuso.
In the past few minutes of attack, Lin Yi pulled Gattuso away, and then created two breakthrough opportunities for Lampard, but this guy was too hasty when shooting, otherwise Dida would be in greater trouble.
Now Sacchi is also quiet, he doesn't want to continue slapping himself, the little guy who performed very badly in his mouth is now using this slapping method to deny Sacchi's nonsense again and again with beautiful breakthroughs and passes.
Will such a kid who makes the whole AC Milan team headache be stage fright? If someone else says yes, then Ancelotti really wants to slap him in the face. AC Milan originally had about 60% of the ball control, but now because of the kid's sudden outbreak, Chelsea has come from behind. On the scene, it is the Italians who are now in a passive position.
The game has been nearly 40 minutes, and there are only a few minutes left before the end of the first half. Ancelotti now just wants to wait until the halftime break, and then adjust the team's current state to reverse this passive situation.
But he forgot that there was a little madman who didn't want the score to remain the same until the end of the halftime. He had already moved. He wanted to use his flexible feet to scare the Italians again.
(Tomorrow is the finals. Will the Mavericks repeat the tragedy of the last time? I hope Kidd can get what he wants...)
