Chapter 188 Victory is not happy (Second update on Sunday)

Wen Zhihao’s injury made Conte see an opportunity for a turning point. He concluded that this episode would cause some fluctuations in the mental state of the players on the Atletico Madrid field, and the intensity would inevitably decrease in a short period of time. Moreover, Vietto and Wen Zhihao’s types were not the same. Switching styles of play also required a period of psychological adaptation, and this is the time Chelsea can strive for to make a difference.

The impact of Wen Zhihao's exit on Atletico Madrid is not only that the striker has changed a pair of combinations, but also means that the connection between the two strikers has been weakened. Bi Eto puts more emphasis on the ability to finish the goal, and the role of Griezmann overlaps to a large extent.Wen Zhihao and Griezmann can play the effect that one plus one is greater than two on the court. If it is Vietto, it is not bad to be equal to two, and most of the time it is less than two.

Chelsea seized this opportunity to overwhelm the half-court as a whole. David Luiz and Azpilicueta had played full-backs and had strong offensive capabilities.With the development of modern football tactics so far, excellent defenders must have the ability to initiate offense. David Luiz and Azpilicueta have embody this requirement excellently, and they are very strong stimulation to Chelsea players' desire to attack.

The central defenders are all rushing up, but if you don't rush up, is it justified?

The self-regulation of the players is obviously more direct and effective than Conte's stimulation on the sidelines. Except for the three central defenders, everyone on Chelsea's side has already overwhelmed Atletico Madrid in the half.Before, they might have been worried about Atletico Madrid's quick counterattack with both arrows, and they didn't dare to press too far forward, but now everyone understands that Atletico Madrid's counterattack center is mostly on Griezmann's side.

Facing the situation where Chelsea fans fell behind by two goals and had less than 10 minutes left, the cheers were much lower. As time passed, they gradually began to accept a defeat. However, after Wen Zhihao left the field, the momentum of the home team improved significantly, and their eyes gradually began to light up, like a ray of light suddenly shot into a dark hole.

He Wei criticized Atletico Madrid's current problems: "The sequelae of Wen Zhihao's injury to Atletico Madrid are obvious. Simeone's anti-counterattack tactics are now only defensive, and there is no counterattack at all. This is very dangerous. It is not difficult for Chelsea to score two goals in 10 minutes, but the terrible thing is that Chelsea is going up. If Simeone really wants to defend and counterattack, it is better to strengthen the midfield. It may be more effective to leave Griezmann as a counterattack point."

Atletico Madrid's defense line is getting flatter and flatter. Chelsea keeps mobilizing the attention of Atletico Madrid's defense line through large-scale transfers and loses the initiative. It will be a matter of time before something goes wrong.What's more, Atletico Madrid's defense also has a rookie defender Lucas Hernandez who is severely lacking in Champions League experience. He couldn't show it when the defensive pressure was not high, but Chelsea's high-intensity continuous oppression. Hernandez is like the weakest screw. Once loose, Atletico Madrid's overall defensive system will have a fatal loophole.

After 5 minutes, Atletico Madrid conceded the ball.It was Hernandez who had a problem.Facing Juanfran on the left, Hazard made a fake move to change direction and make a breakthrough, which made Juanfran hesitate a little, and then decisively kicked a pass into the penalty area. Hernandez watched the ball fly over and stared at the direction of the ball to take off.One step ahead, the waist and abdomen rushed to the top, directly heading the ball to the dead corner, and Oblak was beyond his reach.

Chelsea fans instantly fell into carnival, and the blue waves became the protagonist for the first time this night.

The two Sky Sports commentators finally got the chance to let their passion run wild.

"GOOOOOAL!!! Alvaro Morata! He finally scored the goal against Atletico Madrid. Chelsea finally sounded the horn of counterattack, and we have a great chance to witness a great reversal. Yes, Chelsea's current momentum is giving people this confidence."

He Wei showed such an expression in the BJ studio, and said: "Atletico Madrid is really leaking and raining all night. Wen Zhihao was just injured and replaced, and he was immediately pulled back. I hope you don't suffer too much. Otherwise, all the efforts of Wen Zhihao in the first half will be in vain."

It was Griezmann who scored twice for Atletico Madrid, but He Wei automatically ignored it, and regarded Wen Zhihao as the biggest contributor to the two-goal lead in the first half.Of course, CCTV is mainly for domestic fans, as long as it makes Chinese fans like it and makes it comfortable to listen to.

Wen Zhihao sat expressionless on the bench, his temperament was always very active, this expression proved that he was actually very dissatisfied.

Simeone made a second substitution adjustment in the No.70 minute.Savage replaced Hernandez. Obviously the conceded goal made Simeone see the problem. At this time, more experienced players are needed to sit in the defense.At the critical moment, Simeone still switched back to the main central defender.At the same time, it also sends a signal to the players: stick to the end.

Conte sent William and Batshuayi consecutively, and the pursuit of the coaches of both sides has been very clear.

In the last 10 minutes, rounds of climaxes belonged to Chelsea fans. Chelsea's offensive was launched around Atletico Madrid's penalty area for a long time. David Luiz and Azpilicueta both came to the offensive area, and only Gary Cahill was in the backcourt.Chelsea were only a fraction of the distance away from scoring a second goal each time.But after passing the defender, he couldn't pass Oblak's ten fingers. Oblak blocked Chelsea's shots again and again, but became the most happy player in Atletico Madrid. Every time he blocked a shot, he shouted and provoked at the opponent's back: "Come on, grandchildren! Come on! If I can score my second goal, I will lose!"

The Chelsea players were very depressed, and they couldn't help being furious when they heard Oblak's wild words. At the last moment, there were many verbal battles between the players of the two sides, but this is exactly where Oblak's roughness was subtle. Such disputes made time pass by unknowingly.As for the stoppage time of the group stage, the referee lasted for 5 minutes. Generally speaking, Atletico Madrid made a profit.

The 2:1 lead was "luckily" maintained by Atletico Madrid until the final whistle, but when they left the field, the entire Atletico Madrid team received "kind greetings" from Chelsea fans. Oblak was the saddest reminder. The banana peel thrown from the stands just fell on his head. Wen Zhihao couldn't help laughing like that, and resisted the urge to take pictures and post on Weibo, otherwise Griezmann's embarrassment would cause a lot of heat in China.

In the post-match press conference, Simeone downplayed Wen Zhihao's injury: "There is no major problem. The team doctor told me that it will not affect the next game."

But the reporters didn't believe it. It's really all right. Why are you so serious?
Wen Zhihao's injury is indeed not a major problem, Simeone is telling the truth.His real dissatisfaction was that the victory had come at too high a price.Apart from Wen Zhihao, many players suffered from cramp.The old injury on Godin's knee also showed signs of recurrence after consecutive high-intensity games.

Killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, Simeone really can't laugh, it's just a miserable victory, and the victory is not happy.
