Chapter 448 Change tactics for my brother!

Due to an accidental injury to Doucoure, the game was interrupted for several minutes.

Watford also had to make substitutions.

Probably because he saw how ferocious Lipolo was, Marco Silva replaced one of his strong players - French midfielder Etienne Capoue, who is 189cm tall and weighs 86kg.

Capoue, who is of Caribbean descent, is not only tall but also extremely flexible. In addition, he has played for Tottenham for two seasons and has a very aggressive style of play.

He had just appeared for less than five minutes, and during the fight with Li Polo, he got an iron elbow, which was regarded as a disincentive...

Then Li Polo lay on the ground without hesitation, clutching his chest. The team doctor checked him around for three minutes but did not get up.

Capoue also tried to explain:

"I just opened my arms to keep my balance, it wasn't an elbow attack at all!"

The referee Tierney couldn't stand it and gave Capoue a yellow card without saying a word:

"I know you feel sorry for Doucoure's injury, but you have to understand that it was Doucoure who kicked it!"

-

Li Poluo, who had been lying on the ground for a long time, finally stood up. Except for a few grass clippings on his butt, there was no damage to his body.

But despite this, he was still asked by the referee to temporarily withdraw from the field.

Capoue's yellow card gave Chelsea a free kick in the frontcourt, which was at least 35 meters away from the goal. They could only seek opportunities through the cooperation of the players.

Alonso, Fabregas, and Luiz, the three free kick masters, stood together at the penalty kick position, looking at the positions of the players on both sides and communicating in low voices.

Alonso looked at it for a long time and finally shook his head:

"It's too far, I'm not sure at all!"

Louis is gearing up:

"Since you are not sure, let me cover you up!"

Fabregas suppressed his impulsive shaggy hair:

"Both of you, give me a feint!"

Louis was a little unconvinced:

"Why?"

Fabregas glanced at Li Polo, who had just received the referee's permission and stepped onto the court again:

"David, do you have any objections?"

Louis made a "cut" sound, and then raised his hands to his chest:

"I listen to you, Cesc."

Remi, who was jockeying for position in the crowd, couldn't help but move his ears.

He silently remembered:

[In the 43rd minute of the first half, Fabregas glanced at Polo, Luis made a sound of disdain, and Alonso shook his head repeatedly. I suspect that all three of them were expressing dissatisfaction with Polo..."

Before his rich association was over, he saw Alonso running towards the penalty spot first, and the players on both sides around the wall suddenly became nervous.

Alonso stepped directly over the ball, followed by Luis.

The Brazilian defenders were very well-positioned and looked as if they were about to launch a blast at any moment, so much so that half of the wall couldn't help but jump up. Remy, Cahill, Rudiger and others competed for the main force.

He was even hugged tightly by the opponent's defensive players.

But Louis only feinted a shot and ended his performance.

Fabregas, who was left at the end, only took three steps before using the inside of his foot to make an arc!

The football passed over the wall and did not pass into the area where Remy, Cahill and Rudiger were, but was hoisted into the right rib of the penalty area!

In that position...there's no one within a five-meter radius!

"Xiaofa made such a mistake? It shouldn't be!"

Just as Shen Fangjian made a sound of confusion, he saw a blue afterimage rushing towards the goal from outside the penalty area!

His breathing suddenly came to a standstill!

Li Polo, who was waiting for the referee's permission three seconds ago, had already entered the penalty area in another direction with the help of Alonso and Luis' fake moves!

He rushed back to the wall and reached the right rib of the goal one step earlier than any defensive player!

Capoue, who was struggling with Rudiger before, wanted to take over at this time, but was stopped by Rudiger!

Fabregas' pass came as promised at this moment!

Li Polo didn't even take off at full strength before receiving the pass from his teammate!

He powerfully headed the ball from the edge of the small penalty area!

Watford goalkeeper Xiurelio Gomez reacted very quickly. He immediately moved to the left, spreading his hands and left foot at the same time, trying to block the near post as much as possible. He even paid attention.

Until...Li Polo might hit a ground bounce ball!

His left foot was almost touching the post and even touched the football. However, this header was like a heavy torpedo. The force was too strong. Although the heavy football hit his foot, it was not blocked.

After leaving the goal line, it still bounced into the goal the next second!

2:0!

【Mader!】

Gomez almost thought he had successfully blocked Li Polo's header, but the next second he recovered from his joy!

Not only that, his balance was affected by football and he almost hit the goal post!

[Negative emotions from Shurelio, +429!]

-

"Beautiful! Header from Lee Polo!"

Shen Fang's eyebrows widened and his eyes widened with excitement:

"When Watford's defensive players focused on Rudiger and Cahill's left rib, Lee Poirot, who had just come on, had quietly appeared in the most dangerous area!

When everyone thought that Lee Polo, who was retreating, lacked a threat to the goal, the Blues' No. 1 once again declared his presence with a powerful and heavy header!"

Although he was very excited, Jia Tianning, who was sitting opposite, still secretly curled his lips unsatisfied:

[What does it mean to lack a threat to the goal?]

[Although I know that you want to promote before suppressing, but you are denying Lee Polo's role on the court!]

I saw Hall Master Jia rolling up his sleeves and going into battle in person:

"If in the first 40 minutes, Lee Polo used steady and precise interceptions and steals to remind us of his defensive ability to dominate La Liga. Then, this sharp and domineering header is another reminder to the whole world.

In football, who is the best player to score goals?

Even if he temporarily plays as a defensive midfielder, we cannot relax our defense on him! After all...Li Polo, who served as a central defender in Valencia, was also able to score 47 goals in a season!"

-

"How is it, Polo?"

Fabregas, who received an assist, immediately rushed to Li Polo to express his gratitude:

"Is my passing pretty good?"

"Only you can notice my movement, Cesc!"

For his loyal teammates, Li Polo did not hesitate to praise him. He not only gave verbal praise, but also gave Xiaofa a warm hug.

Fabregas, who had been fully affirmed, was flushed and even a little elated. When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, he had to hold on to the wall and walk back to the locker room...

"We played well in the first half. We have absolute control in the midfield, so we need to strengthen the two wings..."

After briefly reviewing the performance of the first 45 minutes, Conte was very satisfied with the defensive hardness in the middle, and turned around and threw the pressure to Alonso and Azpilicueta.

The two wing-backs looked at each other and could only agree.

Fabregas suddenly spoke:

"Coach, I would like to make a small modification to the offensive tactics."

Conte was a little surprised, but still raised his chin:

"Tell me about it?"

Fabregas stood up from his seat, came to the tactical board, stretched out his hand and made casual gestures:

"Our frontcourt trident is very strong, but if it is restricted by multiple opponents, it will be difficult to exert its power. Therefore, I suggest that they can purposely attract defensive pressure during positional battles, and then pass the ball to a sudden

Those who push forward... other teammates."

The forward line attracts the defense line, and teammates in the midfield and backfield suddenly advance forward to complete the fatal blow through long shots. This is originally a common offensive routine in football.

Especially in Chelsea ten years ago, Drogba tore up the defense and Lampard bombarded the goal. This kind of cooperation was not uncommon.

In today's Chelsea, the one who can complete the final blow at the top of the penalty area can be Fabregas himself, Azpilicueta, Alonso, or even Luiz. They all have a kick of poor quality.

Low long shot.

But everyone knows that what Fabregas really wants to say is not these four candidates, but Lipolo.

It's just that...Li Polo, who lacks long-range shooting ability, wants to implement this tactic, he must go deeper into the penalty area in order to pose a sufficient threat to the goal.

Of course Conti understood what he meant, so he pondered for a few seconds and nodded:

"Under the condition of ensuring the safety of the back line, I agree with this adjustment."

Fabregas sat back in his seat with satisfaction, and at the same time looked at Li Polo with earnest eyes.

[Brother Polo, I asked the head coach to modify the tactics for you!]

To his disappointment, Li Poluo's expression did not change much, but remained calm.

What Fabregas doesn’t know is…

Even if Conte doesn't change his tactics, he will be more actively involved in the offense in the second half!

In the first half, he used fighting and fighting to consume the opponent's physical energy and fighting spirit. The second half... was naturally his time to perform!
