Chapter 309 Appearance
Defensive counterattack, this tactical play has always been a magic weapon for a weak team to beat a strong team.

In the situation against strong teams, this style of play is smart.A solid defense makes the number of players in the backcourt small and there is not much room for the opponent to play, and the defensive players can effectively defend in a short distance.Although it seems that they are under a lot of psychological pressure, they can effectively save energy and at the same time effectively attract the opponent to continue to attack deeply.

When the offensive team does not have an advantage in numbers, it is difficult for them to break through the dense defense. Once they invest more troops in the attack, there will naturally be emptiness in the backcourt.In such a situation, once the defensive team steals the ball, the defensive formation will immediately become an offensive formation, reaching a situation in which the number of frontcourt is dominant in an instant, giving the opponent a fatal blow.

But today's tactical play is not as good as the patent of weak teams.

Many strong teams will also use this tactic, such as Italy, such as Chelsea.

If it is said that Italy has performed the defense to an extreme, then Mourinho has sublimated the defensive counterattack to a new level.From Porto's triple crown to Chelsea's two consecutive Premier League titles, he has always been adhering to the defensive and counterattack style of play.The luxurious lineup, top configuration, and unique personal charm enable the players to implement his tactical intentions very consistently in the game.The injection of iron and blood spirit makes his team have a strong fighting will and resilience.Even the major European giants will have headaches when they encounter Mourinho's team.Because when they want to break through the dense defense, they have to beware of their sharp counterattack.

Mikel's goal broke the balance on the field. While celebrating the goal wildly, Mourinho did not forget to remind his players to change their formation and strengthen their defense.In his dictionary, there is no big difference between 1-0 and 10-0.

After the game restarted, Chelsea immediately retreated, huddled in front of the 30-meter area, and formed two tight lines of defense. Even a center like Drogba was pulled to the backcourt to participate in the defense. As for Joe Cole and Wright- Phillips essentially became the team's two wingbacks.

Facing Chelsea, which is strictly defending, Manchester United is eager to attack to equalize the score, but when attacking, they have to beware of Chelsea's counterattack. Once they are attacked by Chelsea again and score a goal, their situation will be even more passive.Therefore, in the case of low investment in offensive troops, their offensive achieved little effect.

A one-sided offensive and defensive battle took place in the new Wembley Stadium. If it weren't for the score on the big screen to remind the people watching the game, people must have thought that Chelsea had no power to fight back under Manchester United's strong attack.

"Ah... Well, the first half of the game has come to No. 30 minutes, and the score between the two sides is still 1-0. Under Chelsea's strict defense, Manchester United still haven't been able to get a chance! Phew, this is simply in Kill the art of football!"

Martin Taylor sat on the commentary seat and was about to fall asleep. After yawning and rubbing his eyes, he continued to watch the boring game.

"Well, we saw Ferguson standing helplessly on the sidelines. Perhaps breaking through dense defenses is a worldwide problem!"

Several magic weapons to break dense defense, long-range shots, breakthroughs, set kicks, and combination of side and center.

Of course Ferguson knew, and Manchester United's players also knew that they had been attacking in this way for the past period of time.They have meticulously tried the tactics of long-range shots, breakthroughs, set-pieces, and the combination of side and center.But long-range shots were blocked by their players with their bodies. Set-pieces are generally far away from the goal. In the absence of support and support for breakthroughs, they are generally caught in double-teams and multi-teams by the opponent.As for the combination of the side and the middle, even the breakthrough point cannot be opened, so how can we talk about the combination of the side and the middle?
Looking at the time, Ferguson made a forward pressing gesture.

"Manchester United finally started to step up their offense. In fact, Ferguson should have done this a long time ago. Maybe they have scored goals!"

A prolonged stalemate will not be good for Manchester United.

Now there are still 15 minutes before the end of the first half. Ferguson hopes to have a strong attack to tear apart Chelsea's defense.

With Ferguson's instructions, Evra and Brown, who were huddled in the backcourt, immediately pressed forward.Cristiano Ronaldo and Giggs have to attract one, two or even three defensive players. The forward pressure of Brown and Evra, together with the support of Scholes and Carrick in the middle, can form a number of people locally. The advantages.

Manchester United, which aggressively attacked, soon formed a breakthrough in the frontcourt. After Cristiano Ronaldo cut in from the right to attract two defensive players, he passed the ball to the side with a slap on the outside of his instep. After assisting Brown, he took two steps after receiving the ball, and looked at the pass in the penalty area.The football bypassed Bridge, who was defending at the front point, with a slight spin, and went straight to the middle of the penalty area.

Watching the football go around Bridge, who was at the front point, Terry immediately made a judgment.As the world's top central defender, Terry has an excellent sense of position and excellent judgment on where the ball will land. Coupled with his excellent physical fitness and header ability, he has a very strong ability to compete for the top in the penalty area.After judging the landing point, Terry jumped easily and shook his head to clear the ball out of the penalty area.

But Terry's clearance did not fly far, and was directly controlled by Scholes.

Mikel and Makelele rushed towards Scholes one after the other.

Mikel, who scored a goal, was very active in the game, blocking Manchester United's long-range shots with his body many times.Watching Scholes take a long shot, he immediately jumped up and turned around to block Scholes' shot with his body.

Seeing this, Scholes immediately dunked the ball. After dodging Mikel, he pushed the ball forward, adjusted and swung his right leg again.At this time, following behind Mikel, Makelele, who was defending, tapped the ball lightly like a superficial touch, and then quickly retracted his feet.Always Makelele's feet were fast, but he still couldn't escape Scholes's feet. Scholes kicked directly on Makelele's studs and fell directly on the court.

"Damn it!"

Although the distance was a bit far, Ferguson, who was standing on the sidelines, could still see it clearly.

Such a vigorous pumping on the studs, even with the protection of the sneakers, Scholes probably would have difficulty continuing the game.

After cursing secretly, Ferguson immediately called Yu Liang.

Yu Liang, who was sitting on the bench, stood up suddenly and ran to Ferguson's side.

"It is estimated that Paul will not be able to persist in the game!"

Watching the slow-motion replay, the fans all felt pain, let alone Scholes.

"Well, we saw some movement in front of the Manchester United bench! Dude, your genius is about to come out!"

"Oh, really? I hope this little guy can bring us something a little different!"
