ball at foot

Chelsea have always been a very strong team.Although Liverpool's record against Chelsea is dominant, the Liverpool players have to admit that the outcome of the two sides is often a matter of one ball, and if one is not careful, it may lose.

Before the game, although they had lost in the first half of the season, Liverpool still didn't pay too much attention to Chelsea-they had two consecutive draws, the team's attack was weak, and they couldn't score goals against the underdogs, let alone against the top teams. Liverpool, the best defensive player this season.

However, this ball also made Liverpool vigilant.After all, the game is very important, and we should not be careless at all.In this way, this attack is also beneficial, and Liverpool's last bit of contempt will be put away. The game has just started 20 minutes, and the time is still long.

Moreover, Zhao Yaning himself thinks that he has also found a way to deal with Chelsea.

Chelsea's seemingly impregnable defense is not completely flawed. [

Zhao Yaning controlled the ball in the middle and ran two steps to the right.Essien still kept his foot on the ground to prevent him from breaking through, while Makelele was well placed on the line of his pass to Figo.Zhao Yaning is very clear that if he passes the ball, [-]% of it will be intercepted by Makelele. Makelele’s role in ground ball defense is extremely terrifying.

However, he didn't even think about giving the ball to Figo. He turned around with one step and passed the ball long to Gerrard on the left.

Gerrard tried to break through Del Horno, but his reaction was slow and unsuccessful.In desperation, he passed the ball to Figo, and Figo passed the ball to Maicon behind him again. Instead of going forward, Maicon made a long pass and passed the ball to Zhao Yaning.

But at this time, Terry rushed out and pushed the ball to the feet of Lampard in the frontcourt.

Zhao Yaning smiled, and it was exactly what he expected.

Zhao Yaning's attack obviously hit Chelsea's weakness.

With Makelele and Essien, Chelsea's midfield defense has indeed reached a new level.Some people mop up, some people break the back, coupled with a superb defense, Chelsea now has the most sophisticated defensive system. It can be said that their current defense is the best in the world.

However, they still have a problem.

The midfielder's header is Chelsea's great shortcoming.After all, Makelele and Essien are not very tall, and their ground interception ability is strong, but fighting for headers in midfield is not their forte.In fact, this is the main reason why people have always suspected that Chelsea wanted to introduce Ballack: they do have problems in this position.

Against ordinary teams, their weaknesses are not obvious. However, Liverpool's frontcourt players are not weaker than Essien and Makelele in height and confrontation ability, but their header ability is even better. Although Liverpool cannot Counting on the header attack from the midfielder, but when Zhao Yaning and Figo started to attack as the two left and right attack lines, they can use long passes to tear the opponent’s defense line as much as they want, which makes Liverpool in this link. , relying on the cooperation in the air, gained a considerable advantage.

In order to make up for this disadvantage, Chelsea must respond-as Zhao Yaning expected, there is only one response they can make, and let the defender play in the midfield.

And in this way, they will naturally have a lot of space in the backcourt.

Milito's technical characteristics are actually close to those of Crespo. Of course, his current strength is still worse than that of Crespo.However, compared with Crespo, he has a big advantage.The teammates behind him are all willing to pass some ground balls with through balls.

Zhao Yaning spent a long time trying to find a way to tear apart the back line and create opportunities for him.Now that it's broken, what needs to be done is to find a way to pass the ball to him when he sees the opportunity.

All shooters are fed - no matter how good a shooter is, he must have enough opportunities to be able to play better and better.No one thinks about feeding the ball, they can only sink step by step.Milan had played a long pass for Lebierhoff at the beginning, but when it came to Shevchenko, they switched to playing in the middle to cooperate in a small area.And Van Nistelrooy relied on Beckham's long pass to enjoy himself for a long time, which also allowed him to secure his position as the king of the penalty area.Crespo has been playing poorly at Chelsea. After arriving in Milan, he was revived by the midfielder.And Milito's advantage in team play now lies in this: his teammates are willing to find ways to feed him the ball.

When the ball reached Alonso's feet again, Zhao Yaning ran to the left and ran in the ribs of the penalty area. At the same time, he raised his hand and signaled Alonso to pass the ball.His approach made Carvalho involuntarily lean over, but at this time, Alonso kicked the ball to Gerrard in the middle.

Because Carvalho had already gone out, Terry didn't dare to defend it. This made it easy for Gerrard to catch the high-altitude ball.But he obviously also knew that when the ball reached his feet, it would obviously be blocked by Makelele, so he simply shook his head and pushed the ball into the penalty area.

His ball headed to the left side of the penalty area, and Zhao Yaning also strode over at this time.Carvalho is still following Zhao Yaning, but Zhao Yaning has already squeezed out half of his body space by relying on his explosive power. Sticking to Carvalho, he stretched out his left foot, picked the ball with one kick, and threw the ball towards him. middle road.

Milito jumped up less than six yards in front of the goal. Terry was a step behind him, but his position was better. He almost blocked in front of Milito and jumped up too.Terry knew the seriousness of the ball, he stretched his neck hard, blocked Milito, grabbed the ball before Milito, and blocked the ball from the crossbar! [

"John Terry, he saved Chelsea again!"

However, the two people in the air also collided, Milito fell backwards, while Terry fell forwards.In front of him was Petr Cech, who was trying to make a save. Terry couldn't dodge him, and the two collided directly and rolled into the goal.

This time, both Zhao Yaning and Carvalho were stunned: Who fouled this?Is it Terry's defensive foul?Or Milito offensive foul?Both of them fell into a mess, whose fault is this?

The referee ran over and didn't call a foul.But at this time, the few people on the ground are more important.

"I'm fine!" The first one to stand up was Milito.Although Terry did make a small move when he jumped up, the foul was not obvious, and Milito didn't complain.Besides, he himself was just as unclean, or Terry wouldn't have fallen out.Since this is Stamford Bridge, don't expect the referee to give a penalty for such a ball.

At this time, Terry, who fell to the ground, also stood up.His injuries were also not serious.In fact, it was just that someone gave him a slap on the back, which made him unsteady and fell out. Of course, he would not be injured.

However, the really unlucky person was Petr Cech, who was hit by the misfortune.

Obviously, Petr Cech has hit hard all of a sudden.

He collided with Terry, causing Cech to cover his face for a long time without getting up.He wasn't pretending to be injured, but his face was indeed injured.

When Terry fell to the ground, his head hit him right in the face, and he hit the bridge of his nose. The nose is one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body. Now, his nose is bleeding non-stop. .Although such an injury is not a serious injury, the visual effect is quite amazing.No matter who it is, seeing a person with blood on his face will feel horrible.

This also made the game have to be suspended. The player's jersey was stained with blood and had to be changed.

Cech changed his shirt and played again, and Liverpool's side also had a lot of time.Zhao Yaning stood on the corner kick point and was also thinking about how to serve the corner kick better.

Chelsea's defense, whether last season or this season, is the defense with the fewest goals conceded in the Premier League.Among the top four in the Premier League, Manchester United's defensive tactics have always been the best one.The most important thing in set-piece defense is cooperation. Only good cooperation can defend well. In this regard, Manchester United is the best one. Although their defender is a colander, they are excellent in cooperating with defensive set-pieces.And if it is the worst, it is naturally Arsenal. Their set-piece defensive tactics have always relied heavily on Campbell's personal ability.Liverpool is not much better, Hyypia's personal ability is also extremely important.

And Chelsea's defense has another meaning: they have many high points and good goalkeepers. Although there is nothing particularly outstanding in tactics, they can control the defense by relying on the personal ability of the players.Among the rich teams, this team should be the only one who dares to use parallel positions in defense of set-pieces.

How to face their defense is also something that makes Zhao Yaning helpless.But Cech was injured for a relatively long time after all, which also made Zhao Yaning think calmly: Terry is an old-fashioned central defender in England after all. He has the bravery and hard work that others do not have. The weaknesses of England's defenders are still obvious.

At this time, Liverpool had already taken a corner kick.Zhao Yaning's long pass went straight to the back, but Terry destroyed the attack.His header headed the ball out and didn't give Hyypia a chance.

"John Terry! Saved Chelsea again!"

Terry's defensive ability is indeed recognized as excellent throughout the Premier League.And his header also fell to Lampard's feet.But just as Lampard turned around, Sissoko's tackle was already kicked over.

Lampard jumped to avoid his tackle, but the ball was also picked up by Alonso.He made a long pass with one kick, gave the ball to Zhao Yaning, who ran out from the corner kick, and retreated himself. At this time, Zhao Yaning simply followed the baseline and entered the penalty area!

Del Horno was the first to pounce on it, but obviously he underestimated Zhao Yaning too much.Zhao Yaning gently sent the ball to the right under his feet, then quickly flicked it back, and then stabbed, it was an easy pass through the crotch, and passed him, Zhao Yaning changed direction one step, squeezed Carvalho, Although there is no shooting angle, but in front of him, in the penalty area, there are Milito, Gerrard and Figo three points to support, and on Chelsea's side, only Terry and Gallas are defending!

To whom?

Terry blocked Milito behind him, while taking care of Figo who was further back, Gallas followed Gerrard closely, and the two were running.It seemed that although the positions of the three of them were all right, they were all a bit difficult. [

At this time, Zhao Yaning kicked the ball up.

Is the ball towards Figo or Milito?Terry was a little surprised that he would pass to his position.The speed of the ball was fast, but it was not positive enough. Before Terry had time to react, he felt it. The ball hit his arm!

In order to keep Milito behind him, his arms are indeed raised.This is not a very formal defensive action, but he didn't care.But at this time, he was extremely annoyed in his heart.

The referee ran over and took a penalty.

Before the end of the first half, Liverpool finally welcomed the best chance.
