Chapter 341 Another Super Bowl Strikes
Fan Shang looked at Chelsea's starting roster today, and he didn't send all of their elders to the field, and even hid two of them.But so their average age is 30.

Chelsea used a 442 formation, goalkeeper De Houer, four defenders, Ferrer, Leboeuf, Desailly and Le Saux, midfielder, Dubury, Di Matteo, Wise, Babaiaro , forwards, Zola and Casiraghi.

The front and back courts are quite old, especially Vialli and Petrescu have not played yet, and the midfielder can be younger, but Di Matteo is also 28.

Bordeaux is still using this year's new tactics today, 451, goalkeeper Chilavert, back four, Sagnol, Gallas, Distin and Abidal, midfielder, Makelele, Ballack, Pires , Mendieta and Wiltord, single striker Drogba.

Vincent put Wiltord on the field today. If paired with Drogba, this striker who is quite accomplished in picking up leaks can still keep up better. Although he is now classified as a midfielder, today his main The responsibility is still to score goals.

Before kick-off, Vincent still shook hands with the opponent's head coach as usual. Italian Vialli, as a head coach and player, although there are many such cases on the football field, but now it is less and less.

"Hello" Vincent and Vialli met for the first time.

"Hello, congratulations on your good results last season." Vialli also said politely.

"Thank you. I hope you will have good results this season. The central defenders of the world champions." Vincent still praised the French players, but it is true that the combination of Desailly and Leboeuf is the combination of the World Cup finals.

"Hehe" Vialli just smiled.

The two people who had no friendship at all returned to their respective positions.

At the beginning of the game, Bordeaux kicked off first. Today, Bordeaux still starts from the middle and then shifts to both sides. The controller of the midfield is still Ballack.

However, in order to make Chelsea unable to figure out Bordeaux's tactics, Vincent told Ballack to pass more long passes at the beginning of the game and find Drogba more, so that Chelsea can relax their vigilance against Bordeaux's wing before starting the established tactics before the game.

Ballack then followed Vincent's idea, and in the second minute, Ballack passed a long pass to Drogba directly. Neither Lebouf nor Desailly knew Drogba very well. Although he played in Ligue 2, he still didn't. to the extent that everyone knows.

Leboeuf stepped forward to interfere with Drogba's fight for the top, but Drogba didn't jump at all, relying on Leboeuf to stop the ball directly with his chest.At this time, Leboeuf was immobilized by Drogba's strength.Can only watch Drogba pass the ball to Wiltord at the front of the penalty area.

Facing Desailly, the senior of the national team, Wiltord may have been a little scared. He didn't even dare to enter the penalty area, so he shot directly at the top of the arc.The quality of such a hasty shot can be imagined. De Houye didn't even move, watching the ball fly out of the baseline.

This was the first attack, and Fan Shang didn't pay much attention to it.

Compared with the previous games, Bordeaux's defense was more active today. Vincent took advantage of the young players and asked them to try their best to force Chelsea's old men.Accelerating the pace is Vincent's strategy specifically for Chelsea. After all, these people are older. Under the same running distance, Bordeaux must have a greater advantage.

Especially for their two forwards, these two Italians were not good at running when they were young, and even worse when they were old. Makelele and Ballack followed them up when defending, allowing the two One has to work harder to get the ball.

Especially Makelele, in a defense in the 7th minute, directly shoveled Zola. Although he received a yellow card, it also made the veteran run harder to avoid Bordeaux's defense.And another Italian, Casiraghi, kicked more and more to the side, not daring to go in the middle.

In this way, the two forwards were basically restrained by Bordeaux, and Chelsea had to rely on the midfield to launch the attack.Di Matteo became the core of Chelsea's attack.

At this time, a person in the Chelsea team began to move around. He saw Makelele's action just now, and his emotions also rose.This person is Chelsea's captain on the field "Angry Mouse" Wise, who is not tall, has a sturdy style of play, and has fierce moves.

Sure enough, his villainous cells began to cause trouble. In the 13th minute, after receiving Drogba's ferry, Wiltord finally mustered up the courage to rush into the penalty area, but before he lifted his foot, the "angry mouse" came from behind Hitting him, Wiltord rolled on the ground several times before stopping. Although there was nothing serious, Wise's back bump was really too bad.

However, I don't know whether the referee was blocked from his sight or did it on purpose. He just warned Wise verbally, but he didn't even give him a yellow card.

Fan Shang once again started a heart-to-heart talk with the fourth official, and Makelele and others surrounded the referee on the field, and even the captain Chilavert also ran here to argue with the referee.But the number of people can't change anything, the referee still insisted on his penalty, and only gave Bordeaux a free kick at the front of the penalty area.

Now that Chilavert had come over, he did his part to take the free throw, but it didn't hit the goal frame and flew out of the baseline.

When Fan Shang was taking a free kick from the team, Fan Shang pulled over Makelele, who was defending behind, and gave him some instructions.Makelele then spoke to Barack a few more words.

Ballack nodded, and then when Chelsea attacked, Ballack brought down Di Matteo with exactly the same action as Wise, and now it depends on how the referee makes a penalty.

Fan Shang walked to the fourth official, "Sir, if he gave us a yellow card or a red card for the same foul, shouldn't Wise also add one?"

"Uh..." The fourth official had nothing to say at this time.

The referee couldn't do anything at this time, so he could only treat them equally and gave Ballack a verbal warning.

"Okay, I got the pulse." Fan Shang was overjoyed, your referee is not biased, then if Chelsea fouls, then we Bordeaux will come.

In the 24th minute, Lebouf failed in the fight with Drogba several times. This time he finally couldn't bear it anymore and pushed Drogba from behind when he took off.However, the referee did not draw any cards, but just gave Bordeaux a free kick.

Vincent made a gesture, and after an attack by Chelsea, Gallas threw Casiraghi to the ground in the same way, and the referee made the same penalty this time.
