The Godfather of Football

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"In the 78th minute, in the 78th minute, Chelsea scored again and broke Arsenal's goal!!"

"This is a goal from Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho. It is very, very exciting. Before the goal, he and Drogba had a wonderful one-two against the wall. The two showed great performance. The tacit understanding!”

The live TV footage showed Ronaldinho rushing to the sidelines to celebrate after scoring the goal. The veins on his neck made it easy for everyone to feel his excitement at this moment. After that, He simply pulled up his jersey, covered his head, and danced samba on the sidelines.

"Samba from Brazil, Ronaldinho's entire goal is just like his samba, full of rhythm, full of incredible imagination, he is like a jumping ball on the football field. The magic elf makes it impossible for us to guess what magical performance he will bring us in the next moment!”

The entire process of Ronaldinho's goal was repeatedly replayed on the TV screen, from Evra's forward penetration to Davis pulling to the left, to Ronaldinho's empty cut. , after receiving the ball, he cooperated with Drogba in a one-two, and finally entered the penalty area to face Lehmann's sudden fake move.

The whole process made people involuntarily think of his samba dancing on the sidelines.

The live broadcast camera also gave a close-up of Lehmann who was lying on the ground and kept slapping the grass, "Germany goalkeeper Jens Lehmann, who switched to Arsenal from Dortmund for 3.5 million euros this season, was beaten by Wen Wenger has high hopes for him, but judging from Lehmann’s performance this season, he really cannot live up to Wenger’s hopes for him.”

"Although the defensive players should also bear a lot of responsibility for Chelsea's two goals in the second half to equalize and reverse, Lehmann's performance made it clear that he is not a reassuring goalkeeper, especially in Makelele’s first goal was a misjudgment that made it look like he was dodging the ball rather than diving for it.”

"Ronaldinho's goal is indeed wonderful, and Lehmann's responsibility is not big. But the problem is that he was deceived by Ronaldinho very easily. This is really not a good player." The mistakes that a top goalkeeper should make, because we all know that a truly top goalkeeper must make timely compensation when the team makes a defensive mistake!”

"If the team makes a defensive mistake and you can't make up for it, then what else do you have to do? Right?"

The on-site commentator was obviously very dissatisfied with Lehmann's performance. Even though Lehmann performed very well in the two previous league rounds against Chelsea, his performance in this game was very bad, and could even be said to be clumsy.

The goalkeeper is the supplement and extension of the defensive system. Any goal occurs when the defense makes a mistake, and the goalkeeper's duty is to effectively compensate when the defense makes a mistake. If the defense makes a mistake, the goalkeeper will also make a mistake, so that's not as good as No goalkeeper.

"I clearly remember that Wenger has mentioned the problem of the defense many times this season. When Kolo Toure and Campbell gradually formed a complementary central defender combination, Lehmann's goalkeeper's performance always gave him a false impression. It’s a very unstable feeling. Wenger has defended him many times, but he didn’t expect that in this game, he still made a mistake!”

Wenger raised his right hand high on the sidelines, with a sad and angry look on his face. His expression seemed to be asking his players, why can such a team lose?

He originally hoped that Arsenal could make a breakthrough in the European arena this season, or even make historic progress, because this season was the most confident and the most winning season since he took charge of Arsenal, but there was no such thing. Thinking about it, in the end it was his own mistakes that caused the team to suffer setbacks.

1:2, being reversed by Chelsea at home, this is definitely an unbearable and painful price for Arsenal, and Wenger also knows very well that if the first round is played like this, there is no need to play the second round at all, you can know directly result!

Wenger seemed a little unwilling. He immediately made a substitution adjustment, but instead of replacing Henry or Ljungberg, who performed poorly, he replaced Reyes with Bergkamp.

At critical moments, Wenger's distrust of the rookies came through.

Chelsea immediately followed suit and made substitutions. Ye Qiu replaced Davis, who had an average performance in this game, with Franck Ribery.

The Dutchman's contribution to the team is obvious to all, but as the schedule continues, Davis' performance has also declined due to injuries and fatigue. According to Ye Qiu's idea, Davis will gradually switch to the next season. Rotate players in the team's midfield, or even play a dozen substitutes.

Of course, he will also have a good talk with Davis. After all, the Dutch Boar can still have a place in Chelsea's midfield.

As soon as Ribery came on, Chelsea's tactics changed to 433. Lampard retreated, and Chelsea began to actively attack from both sides, using the personal abilities of Ronaldinho and Ribery to create side attacks. Break through the road, and then use Drogba's intimidation in the penalty area to exert an offensive threat.

This change makes it difficult for Arsenal's offense to launch, because they all know that Chelsea is eager for Arsenal to come out and play. In that case, Chelsea's counterattack and offense will become more threatening.

Chelsea now has enough chips to fight against Arsenal. The reason is very simple. Arsenal players are obviously insufficient in physical strength. Vieira, Gilberto Silva, Ashley Cole, Ljungberg, and even Henry are obviously close to exhaustion. At this time, they will have to be crazy to fight against Chelsea.

Besides, Chelsea now has two away goals in hand. Even if the score is 2:2, Arsenal is still at an absolute disadvantage when returning to Stamford Bridge. But if Chelsea scores another goal by accident, Arsenal will not have to play the second round of the game at all and can just go home.

Strategic disadvantages and insufficient physical strength make it difficult for Arsenal to invest enough troops in the offense. They still use the personal abilities of the players to create threats, but Chelsea's offense has done enough work in terms of restrictions.

In the end, both sides of the game just used a substitution quota hastily and ended the game.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Ye Qiu opened his arms, raised his head, and shouted loudly, venting the joy in his chest, because he knew very well in his heart that after defeating Arsenal 2:1 away, as long as he was careful and didn't make a big mistake in the game back at Stamford Bridge, Wenger would have no chance.

The assistants standing beside him had already huddled together one by one. After defeating Arsenal away, Chelsea had already stepped half a foot into the semi-finals, and no matter who they met in the semi-finals, Chelsea had enough confidence to defeat their opponents.

Ye Qiu was even thinking that he should really show off a little and call Mourinho to tell the old guy that he would wait for him in the final, but when he thought of Mourinho's team just defeated Lyon 2:0 at home last night, Ye Qiu resisted the urge.

"I told you, Arsenal in March and April is not scary at all, see!" Ye Qiu hugged and celebrated with Ten Cate, Roland and others beside him with a smile, and then he high-fived the players on the bench one by one.

The reason why only one substitution was used in the end and the remaining two were wasted was that Ye Qiu had his own considerations. After all, Arsenal had been planning for a long time, and Ye Qiu was unwilling to give the opponent even the slightest opportunity and loophole, so he did not want to make substitutions when it was not necessary.

In this way, it would be unfair to Joe Cole, Van Persie and others on the bench.

Fortunately, now that the team has won the game, everyone is happy and doesn't take it to heart.

When Ye Qiu and the players were celebrating, Wenger had a gloomy face, and it looked like he could scrape off a layer of frost, but when he saw that the Arsenal players were all drooping their heads and looked dejected, the anger that he wanted to vent in his heart immediately disappeared without a trace.

As the head coach of the team, he also knew in his heart that the players had tried their best.

Many things are not just the players' problems and responsibilities. As the head coach of the team, he must also take responsibility.

Everyone wants to win, everyone hopes to win, win all the games, win all the opponents, but the problem is that there is only one winner in every game, and there is only one champion in every event.

Arsenal's board of directors is going to build a new stadium. In the next few years, Arsenal's situation will become more and more difficult. Even Wenger can foresee that it is inevitable to cut back on clothing and diet. Maybe some stars and high-paid players will have to be sold at that time.

Once it comes to this step, the team's combat effectiveness will inevitably be severely weakened!

When thinking of this, Wenger couldn't help but feel a sense of fatigue. He silently looked at the night sky of London in his heart. Under the lights of the stadium, he could not see the stars, but only darkness.

"We will definitely be able to get out!" Wenger encouraged himself in his heart.

After sorting out his mood, Wenger, as the host, politely walked to the visiting team's coaching seat. He saw Ye Qiu waiting for him there with a smile.

"I said, when we meet again, I will definitely let you taste my fist!" When shaking hands, Ye Qiu said something that almost made Wenger go berserk.

Remember, after the game at Stamford Bridge, Ye Qiu really said this, and Wenger changed his color, but now, Wenger can't fight back, because his team lost this game, lost thoroughly, and lost without any excuse.

"There is still a second round of the game, don't be too happy too early!" Wenger said coldly.

Although he knew in his heart that Ye Qiu's arrogance and publicity at this moment was actually a psychological tactic, which was to further hit the morale of Wenger and Arsenal and prepare for the second round of the game, but he still felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

"No, no, no, for me, the game is over!" Ye Qiu said confidently.

Wenger turned around without any hesitation, and just left a cold sentence, "But for me, the game is only halfway through, it's too early to say the winner!"

Facing Wenger's back, Ye Qiu shrugged and laughed. He knew that Wenger would not admit defeat, but the next schedule was quite unfavorable for Arsenal, because they would face Manchester United in a row.

In the 30th round of the league, they faced Manchester United at home; in the FA Cup semi-finals, they faced Manchester United at home; in the 31st round of the league, they challenged Portsmouth away. All three games were difficult to play, which would also be a huge test for Arsenal.

On the contrary, Chelsea may have the opportunity to directly expand their lead and then establish the overall situation of winning the Premier League this season. If that is the case, Ye Qiu is very ambitious and will start to concentrate all his efforts on winning the Champions League.

No one would dislike a champion, right?

"It's hard for me to describe my excitement at this moment. Maybe you should consider giving me 30 minutes to calm down before accepting your cross-examination!"

At the post-match press conference, when the media asked Ye Qiu about his thoughts and feelings about the away game against Arsenal, his sense of humor completely exposed his excitement and excitement at the moment, and he And expressed it without any disguise.

"This game was not easy for us. The players were full of desire and belief in victory, and remained calm and confident at the most important moments. More importantly, we withstood the pressure and defeated our opponents. This was a complete victory. Tell everyone that we at Chelsea are not a mercenary army, we are a team that can show strong fighting power in the face of adversity!”

"Yes, we have gone 17 games without beating Arsenal in the last few years, but for me the numbers don't mean much because I played three games with Arsenal in total and I was One win, two draws, undefeated, and so are my players, so we have no mental pressure at all.”

"Arsenal's arrangement in this game was indeed a bit surprising. Reyes' appearance was beyond my expectation and he scored. It was not easy for us, but we withstood it in the end. Pressure, defeating the opponent, I think this will be a game that will satisfy all the fans who care about Chelsea!”

As for the team's tactical arrangements after defeating their opponents in an away game and returning home, Ye Qiu played with smoke and mirrors.

"I think I will consider defensive counterattack, because we have an away victory and two away goals, so the counterattack will be smoother. I very much hope that Arsenal can adopt the three forward tactics, then we should be better Easy to deal with!" At the end of the sentence, Ye Qiu himself laughed.

Compared with Ye Qiu's frankness, Wenger was stingy with his words. He didn't speak much and his tone was very stiff. He was basically indifferent. Everyone could see that he was in a bad mood after losing the game. Wenger did not fight back against Qiu's psychological battle.

Because of this, the media naturally focused their attention on Ye Qiu. Ye Qiu was in a good mood and answered almost all questions, especially when the media asked about Arsenal's next two consecutive games with Manchester United. Ye Qiu did not forget to add insult to injury.

"I think I will consider sending the video of this game to Sir Alex Ferguson so that he can study Arsenal's tactics!"

After receiving a burst of laughter from the audience, Ye Qiucai continued: "Arsenal's rotations are not much, and the thickness of the bench is relatively weak. This has led to their physical fitness problems so far in the league. We scored two goals in a row in the second half. The reversal was actually not surprising to me. What surprised me was the unexpected goal conceded in the first half.”

"I believe that Sir Alex Ferguson must have prepared for this, so I think Arsenal's weekend and FA Cup games will be very difficult, and I also feel that Sir Alex Ferguson and Manchester United have been unlucky this season. , I believe the transfer should begin by now!”

This is another typical psychological tactic, because whether it is from the schedule or the objective environment, Chelsea is obviously more relaxed. They are the league leader, and they defeated Arsenal in the away game. It can be said that they are halfway to winning the championship and advancing to the Champions League. They had an advantage in the finals.

But Ye Qiu obviously did not feel relaxed because of this, because he knew very well that the league lead was only 4 points, and the advantage of qualifying for the Champions League was only 2:1 away from home. If the team made a mistake at home, they would still be beaten by Arsenal. was eliminated, so he took advantage of this opportunity to add insult to injury to Arsenal.

He is very sure that Ferguson will definitely fight Wenger, especially in the FA Cup semi-finals, because Manchester United very, very much needs a championship this season to cover up the losses in the Premier League and Champions League, and now Arsenal is in a bad situation. Jia, no matter how cruel he is to take Arsenal's life, Ferguson, a conspiratorial villain, will never be merciful.

Killing you while you are sick is typical Ferguson style!

Ye Qiu even wondered, was Ferguson smiling now? And he must still be smiling like Brother Guanxi!

When the reporters saw that Ye Qiu was in a good mood and was resorting to psychological warfare against Wenger, they immediately followed up and asked Ye Qiu an additional question, that is, if he was asked to place a bet, who would he consider winning?

"I usually don't gamble!" Ye Qiu replied with a smile, but soon changed the subject, "But if I were asked to choose, I would definitely not choose Arsenal. At least in these two games, I would I am a fan of Manchester United and a fan of Ferguson!”

The scene burst into laughter again. Ye Qiu now had the upper hand. Wenger stood up angrily and turned around to leave. He was obviously very angry at Ye Qiu's words.

Ye Qiu is not worried about Wenger holding a grudge. On the contrary, he hopes that Wenger will hold a grudge. In that case, it will prove that his psychological tactics are effective. As long as Wenger is angry, Chelsea will be more confident in the second round.

Of course, if Manchester United can deal a fatal blow to Arsenal in the next two games, Ye Qiu believes that he will be more confident in the second round of the Champions League semi-finals.

I just don't know if Ferguson can bear his expectations?
