The faces of Tottenham players were ugly.

Whether it is a Tottenham player starting on the field or a Tottenham player sitting on the bench at the moment.

Listening to the increasingly unified slogans at Stamford Bridge, resentment soon appeared on their faces.

In many cases, sudden anger can always stimulate people's nerves and prompt them to make some irrational behaviors and decisions.

Pochettino may have kept his head clear, but the Tottenham players, who were directly mocked by Chelsea fans on the pitch, could not calm down so easily.

They didn't seem too frustrated by the sudden loss of the ball. Instead, they actively returned the football to the kick-off point and waited for the game to restart.

Li Ang noticed the angry looks on the faces of Tottenham players, but he was not worried about it. Instead, there was a glint in his eyes.

Chelsea's collective celebration didn't waste much time.

After all, this was just the first goal of the game, and Chelsea's players also wanted to seize the time to further expand their score advantage.

Soon, the game resumed at Clattenburg's whistle.

Mourinho stood on the sidelines with his arms folded, carefully observing the situation on the court after his side took the lead.

Spurs, who won the ball, did not do much passing of the ball in their half.

Ryan Mason, who was supposed to be the metronome of the Tottenham team, had no intention of slowing down the pace at all.

After he gets the ball in the midfield, he basically quickly delivers the ball to the left and right wings in front of him.

In this game, Eriksen, who played as a left midfielder, is the real rhythm core of the Tottenham team at this moment.

Mourinho saw this, and he believed that Li Ang on the court could also see Tottenham's fatal flaws in the organization.

There is a very interesting phenomenon in the development trend of modern football, that is, the position of the core organization is getting further and further back.

There are many benefits to having a metronome player in a late position.

The first is to avoid too many unnecessary confrontations with opponent players and put more physical energy into organizational connection.

The second is to delay further to broaden the horizons and grasp the overall situation, which also gives the core organization players more time to think.

As for the shortcomings in threatening pass delivery away from the frontcourt.

First, you can make up for it with accurate long passes.

Secondly, the increasingly versatile wingers are now able to take over the burden of delivering threatening passes from the traditional No. 10 player.

This major development trend in football is irreversible. Small teams can still play retro style, use the traditional No. 10 position as the core of the team, and have fun winning some small cup championships.

But for the established and wealthy teams in football, if they still reuse their core players at the tenth position, the cost-effectiveness of winning is really too low.

The fundamental reason is that the way these players play is destined to take up too much of the team's offensive ball rights, and the ball conceding rate is too high!

Nowadays, the strong teams in football basically attach great importance to seizing opportunities for transition between offense and defense.

If you want to play retro tactics, don't just follow the crowd, and continue to create counterattack opportunities for your opponent, then you really deserve to lose!

At this moment, Tottenham basically adopts such a set of retro tactics on the offensive end.

The only difference is that Eriksson did not position himself in the middle, but moved to the side.

But the style of play is not new. Kane, Lamela and Lennon are all making tactical moves around Eriksen's ball.

At this time, if Eriksen can send a pass that penetrates Chelsea's defense, then Tottenham may indeed be able to launch an efficient threatening attack.

Li Ang has been carefully observing Tottenham's tactical changes on the court.

He can see Erikson's significant improvement in his tactical status on the field, and he also believes that Erikson is indeed capable of shouldering such a heavy tactical responsibility.

But he did not continue to defend Eriksen immediately to restrict his ball-taking and through passes.

On the contrary, Li Ang also deliberately slowed down the press on Eriksen on the defensive end, as if he was deliberately encouraging him to send threatening passes forward.

The decision was not made by Angola because he trusted his teammates behind him and the defensive system created by Mourinho.

Chelsea is undoubtedly one of the best teams in today's football when it comes to seizing opportunities in transition between offense and defense.

Li Ang not only saw the changes in Tottenham's offensive tactics on the field, he also saw a great opportunity to further force Tottenham's counterattack during the transition between offense and defense!

Therefore, Tottenham's players are seeking death, so why does Li Ang need to remind and stop them?

He believes that the double-edged sword retro offensive style used by Tottenham players on the field was not Pochettino's intention.

Because Bo Pang's tactical planning ability before the game could not be so low.

But no matter what the reason is, Tottenham's tactics have become aggressive now.

Now that you have fallen into Chelsea's tactical trap, don't think about getting out easily again!

The situation of the game seemed to be developing in a direction that the large number of neutral fans in front of the TV would like to see.

Because Tottenham did play more "threatening" offense on the court.

Even though every time it seems that they are almost able to penetrate Chelsea's defense and get a threatening shot, in fact Chelsea's defense is still impregnable.

But the number of attempts has accumulated, and Tottenham's initiative has made their offense seem to be getting closer and closer to scoring a goal.

At least the scene was bearable, and it was much better than being beaten at half-time by Chelsea before.

Chelsea's performance during Tottenham's onslaught was much quieter than before.

There were some counterattacks, but only two of them were relatively threatening, but they were quickly intercepted by Tottenham's defensive players in front of their own penalty area.

Hazard's missed long-range shot and Ibrahimovic's failed offensive attempt in the penalty area gave thousands of Tottenham fans great confidence.

And amidst their crazy cheers, the Tottenham players on the field seemed to be playing more and more energetically, and they were getting better and better!

Pochettino kept pacing nervously on the sidelines. On the one hand, he was very much looking forward to his team successfully equalizing the score before the end of the first half.

But on the other hand, he is very aware that Tottenham's current style of play has gone to an extreme, and it is an extreme that is beyond his control.

Li Ang's previous guess was completely correct. The style of play Tottenham changed did not come from Pochettino's instructions.

Purely because of Eriksen's superior personal ability, apart from Eriksen, among the midfielders Tottenham started today, there is no one else who can stabilize the morale of the army.

Ryan Mason is a good organizational deputy, and he usually performs well next to Dembele or Dier.

But expecting him to sit in Tottenham's midfield and organize and coordinate the operation of Tottenham's entire offensive system as the core is indeed too high a view on him.

When the score is behind, it is a normal choice to give the ball to a partner who is more capable than yourself.

It's not that Eriksson doesn't know what he means after taking over the team's main offensive ball, but he has no choice.

Because at this time, Tottenham must have someone to stand up and stabilize the morale of the army.

He has the ability to take the ball. When other teammates are expecting him to step up, even if he knows that doing so will disrupt the original team's offensive system, he has to shoulder this burden.

So far, he's doing pretty well.

After thinking twice, Pochettino did not force the players on the field to return to the previous offensive tactics.

So no matter what his true thoughts are, Eriksen can only bite the bullet and continue to lead the team at this time.

But Li Ang's abnormal performance made Eriksson feel uneasy.

"What kind of fishing tactics is he using?"

Every time Eriksen resolutely delivers a threatening pass forward, he will subconsciously glance at Li Ang and ask himself this question in his heart.

If Li Ang is determined to prevent him from performing, then he can only passively retreat and look for opportunities to organize passes.

But Li Ang didn't do that now.

That's unusual, and it's no wonder Eriksson is paranoid.

After all, the two have played against each other in the Champions League a long time ago.

When he was at Ajax, Eriksen had already deeply experienced the embarrassment of being marked by Li Ang and having difficulty performing.

It is not easy for old acquaintances to play some hidden tricks, so Erikson is very sure that Li Ang is fishing right now!

But what if you know?

He couldn't stop Tottenham from immediately changing their style of play at this moment.

At best, you can just pay more attention to Li Ang's choices between offense and defense, and then see if you can disrupt his plan one step ahead.

Eriksen is ready to pay a certain price to prevent Li Ang from promoting a counterattack.

But when this moment actually came, Li Ang's escape and explosive acceleration after holding the ball still made Eriksson feel that familiar deep feeling of powerlessness!

In the 41st minute of the first half, Eriksen sent an overhead pass, trying to find Lennon who was diagonally inserted into the Chelsea penalty area.

But when Maguire attacked in advance to fight for the top, Lennon had no chance of getting the ball!

Kroos, who was in the inner area on the left side of Chelsea's own half, perfectly unloaded the football pushed by Maguire, then turned around gracefully and sent a short through ball!

The football passed quickly between Lamela and Eriksen who came back, and Li Ang, who increased his speed, did not give Tottenham's frontcourt players any chance to counterattack!

With the explosion, Li Ang's dribbling speed has far exceeded the expectations of Tottenham's midfielders.

Lamela and Eriksen couldn't even stop Li Ang with a tactical foul in advance.

They had no choice but to chase back, but at this moment, Li Ang had already crossed the center line with the ball!

Li Ang's wonderful performance during the long-distance attack directly stimulated the more than 40,000 Chelsea fans at the scene to cheer!

And amidst the cheers of encouragement from his fans, Li Ang only felt his heart surge, and the power surging in his body seemed to be endless and never dry up!

When he was at Real Madrid, he consulted and studied with Kaka for a long time.

At that time, his absolute speed and dribbling ability were not enough.

But now he has the physical and technical conditions to reproduce Kaka's teaching cases.

And what he is facing is not a defensive gate, so why doesn't he give it a try?

Amid the excitement of the howling wind, Li Ang faced Bentaleb, who was facing him with gritted teeth, and he didn't do anything fancy.

With a sharp change of direction and sprint, he directly left Bentaleb behind him and further widened the position gap between the two!

Just highlight an extraordinary person who is unreasonable!

This can also be regarded as his experience after watching a lot of Kaka game videos.

The best way to pass is not to use all the most gorgeous passing skills.

If the talent is not good enough like Ronaldinho, he can just put the ball on his feet and dribble.

He doesn't have Messi's ultra-fast cadence ability that is unique in the world.

Then practice the most basic smashing, changing direction and dribbling, and practice it solidly!

The combination of man and ball is good enough, the spike is fast enough, and the explosive speed is beyond ordinary people.

Just using the most basic skills doesn't necessarily mean you can't become a long-distance running master!

After Li Ang moved to the Premier League, he basically made dribbling and running attempts based on his own experience.

Facts have proved that this truth is a bit rough to say, but it is indeed correct, and his way of passing people does have miraculous effects.

After breaking out Bentaleb again, Liang didn't even give Ryan Mason a chance to stop him.

He forcibly increased his speed again, and rushed through the last line of defense in Tottenham's midfield to intercept!

Watching Li Ang rampage through Tottenham's defense like a human tank, he had no scruples.

The cheers of the Blues fans at the scene became even more crazy!

Mourinho put his hands in his pockets on the sidelines and watched with a solemn expression as Li Ang approached Tottenham's defense.

Although on the surface Mourinho seems calm at the moment, his hands hidden in his pockets are already tightly clenched into fists!

Facing the last hurdle of Tottenham's defense, Li Ang did not choose to slow down.

Because there were quite a few Tottenham players chasing after him, if he dared to slow down now, he would probably have to face a double flank.

Moreover, he has already broken through two blockades and is in full condition. It would be a pity if he chooses to relax at this time.

Ibrahimovic was almost on the offside line, constantly putting pressure on Tottenham's defense.

Previously, his diagonal movement directly brought Tottenham left center back Vertonghen to the right side of Tottenham's penalty area.

Tottenham's other tall center back Fazio therefore had to switch positions with Vertonghen.

At this moment, he was face to face with Li Ang, and Li Ang soon rode a fast bicycle to his surprise!

However, this time Li Ang only pedaled the bicycle for a short two or three times before making a decisive decision to change direction.

These cycling moves only slightly confused Fazio.

Fazio stood firmly in his position and did not make a move in advance. He is very tall and has very strong frontal interception ability.

Because of this, he wanted to use his strengths more. By occupying the position without making any moves, he didn't need to use his clumsy turns to deal with Li Ang's nimble advances.

However, although his ideas and choices were good, he still made habitual mistakes in his awareness of defensive anticipation.

Generally speaking, when offensive players make breakthroughs in this area, they will basically choose to go outside the penalty area.

Because in this case, even if you don't get a shooting opportunity in the end, you can at least send a cross, so this offensive option is safer.

And according to Fazio's own knowledge of Li Ang before the game, he knew that Li Ang's shooting skills have improved a lot compared to two years ago.

But Li Ang still can't hit tricky shots with his left and right feet in a balanced manner like a real forward.

So he didn't think Li Ang would change direction and walk to the inside of the penalty area and then use his left foot to take a clever shot.

But now Li Ang unexpectedly took the ball in a different direction than he expected!

So much so that in his shock, Fazio's speed of moving to intercept was half a beat slower!

What was even more fatal next was when Li Ang led the ball and changed direction. After seeing Fazio making a defensive tilt, he quickly spiked the ball and made a second change of direction in a short period of time!

From collar to collar, Li Ang still maintained excellent body balance, but Fazio could not.

His height of 1.95 meters has become his biggest defensive obstacle at this moment!

Under Li Ang's two quick and flexible direction changes, he was like a puppet, being dragged around to defend with clumsy movements.

Li Ang only felt that the tall central defender in front of him was really slow in his defensive movements!

So much so that after he made the second smash, he had completely thrown away from the opponent.

In an instant, the vision suddenly became clear.

Li Ang could even clearly see the surprised and slightly panicked look on Tottenham goalkeeper Lori's face.

When the shooting angle is large enough and the space is open enough, Li Ang's choice is very simple.

His right calf swung back quickly, and in almost the blink of an eye, Li Ang had completed the volley in the penalty area!

The football was like a discharged cannonball, whizzing out from Li Ang's feet and heading straight to the far corner of Tottenham's goal!

Lori predicted the direction in which Li Ang would hit the goal, but his saving action was still too slow!

The football Li Ang shot had already rubbed the lower edge of the goal crossbar behind him and bounced into the net, and his saving hand came belatedly!

The entire Stamford Bridge stadium seemed to be completely detonated by the birth of this ball!

Sweeping by the sound waves of the crazy explosion, Li Ang raised the corners of his mouth, and then he stretched out his hands and raised them high to the sky where his eyes were staring!

The Sky Sports commentator also seemed to be completely conquered by Li Ang's crazy performance at this moment!

“Unbelievable! Unbelievable!!!

This is an unparalleled goal!

A sixty-meter long run! Got rid of five defensive players!

Li Ang played a magical performance at Stamford Bridge that was enough to destroy the confidence of the entire Tottenham team!

Look at Li Ang's celebration. He is paying tribute to his former teammate and good friend Kaka!

And I believe that after this crazy performance, Li Ang will become the object of worship and imitation by more young players!

He is already a young legend in football! "
