I Want to Be the King of Football

The latest website: The second half of the game resumes.

Manchester City still firmly controls the initiative on the field, but the overall formation is properly withdrawn, especially the pressing force of the front trident on Chelsea's midfield and backcourt has been significantly weakened, which makes Chelsea's The ball control rate has been improved to a certain extent, exceeding 30%.

Many people have also noticed this phenomenon.

The live TV commentator believes that this is a last resort for Manchester City, because the physical fitness of the players to run the whole field must be taken into account.

If the high-pressure tactics used in the first half are continued, Manchester City's players will definitely not be able to maintain the full 90 minutes, and there may even be such a consumption of extra time, so Guardiola will retreat appropriately and let the midfielder The players have reduced their physical consumption, and it seems that he is also a little less confident in breaking the deadlock.

Chelsea's group of players played really well tonight, especially the combination of Cahill and Terry, who completely froze Sudong in the first half. I believe that if they can continue to maintain this level in the second half, Chelsea will now be at this level. There is a good chance of keeping a clean sheet and even beating Manchester City tonight.

And the trend of the game seems to prove that Su Dong seems to be submerged in the middle of Cahill and Terry.

After the start of the second half, although the team's midfield and backcourt retreated, Su Dong still did not get much room to play, which made his performance at the beginning of the second half still lackluster.

The fans of Manchester City looked a little anxious. Many fans in the stands were shouting Su Dong's name, hoping that he would stand up.

In the past two years, they have become accustomed to Su Dong always stepping forward when the team needs him, and I believe it will be the same this time, but for some unknown reason, Su Dong doesn't seem to perform well.

...

Is he a little tired?

In the stands, Su Dong's father Su Wenji asked worriedly.

He heard the appeal of the Manchester City fans around him, and felt their anxiety. In fact, he was also anxious.

It's the second half, and the offense still hasn't gotten up. Is it really going to finish the regular game 0-0?

Or, really want to be dragged into a penalty shootout by Chelsea?

Wang Qingquan is also a senior fan, but he can't understand things that are too professional, and he feels something is not right, but he can't say exactly where.

On the contrary, it was Wang Chuqing, who knew Su Dong best.

He's not tired, and there's no problem with his state. It may be a tactical factor.

After a pause, Wang Chuqing showed a faint smile, Don't worry, he will definitely be able to overcome it.

If you want to say that in the whole stadium, who has the most confidence in Su Dong, it must be her.

From the time the two met until now, Su Dong's performance has never disappointed her, and I believe it will still be the case this time.

Su Wenji and Wang Qingquan were worried, but they didn't understand football games either, so they could only nod their heads and continue watching.

...

Not far from Sudong's parents, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Iniesta, Jose Semedo and others also sat together and watched the game anxiously.

But as the best professional players in the world, they have played with both teams and are very familiar with each other. Their thoughts on the game so far are obviously different from ordinary fans.

Fifty-five minutes later, Manchester City still has to speed up the adjustment and sort out the attack as soon as possible, otherwise, there will be not enough time. Iniesta also said quite dignifiedly.

Many people think that from the second half, Manchester City simply retreated the formation, but as a midfielder, Iniesta knows better than anyone that this seems simple, but in fact there are many problems involved.

Guardiola wants David Silva and Toni Kroos to be more flexible, so after the second half, they often appear on the flanks, for example, David Silva goes to the left, but how can he follow Marcel? Luo and Di Maria cooperate to form a local number advantage?

Strength is no problem, but how to cooperate is the key.

The same goes for Tony Cross's side.

Now that Manchester City's formation has retreated, Chelsea is also logically pressing forward. There is more space in the frontcourt, but there is a problem with the advancement of the ball. It must be solved as soon as possible, so that Su Dong can get the ball in the frontcourt.

His thoughts should be what I said before the game. The biggest problem with Gary Cahill and Terry is defending the ball, and even this is Chelsea's biggest problem, and Su has the ability to break through and create goals. The ball, the premise is to give him space. Messi analyzed.

In the first half, Manchester City's tactics were high pressure, directly compressing Chelsea into a monolith, causing Su Dong to be trapped in the frontcourt. Whenever he got the ball, there were people around him, let alone a big target like Su Dong. , In the face of such defensive pressure, Messi asked himself that he couldn't make a difference on the court.

Looking at the world, how many stars can consistently win one-on-one?

Not to mention a pair of twos, or even a pair of threes.

Many times, the one-to-many scenes in the videos that fans are talking about are actually a kind of dislocation, using the neutral position on defense to attack the opponent's loopholes.

But the situation facing Su Dong in the first half is obviously not the case. He is facing multiple defensive players at the same time. Who can bear this?

Manchester City didn't play well in the first half. Instead of showing Su's all-round feature, they forced him to be like a center, fighting with Cahill and Terry. Facts have proved that this is not good, it should be like now, there is space. , let him go get the ball. Cristiano Ronaldo is also familiar with the Premier League, familiar with opponents, and more familiar with Su Dong.

Chelsea's central defenders are all typical English central defenders, their characteristics are not complementary. They are all excellent in high defense and frontal defense, but they are slow to turn around. Cahill's positional sense is not very good. , the body can't keep up with the consciousness, as long as these two players are staggered, let alone Su, you and I can easily handle them.

For this, Cristiano Ronaldo is also full of confidence.

Messi responded with a smile, did not answer, but was equally confident.

As the top three superstars in world football, they all have a clear enough understanding of their own strengths.

Ronnie is characterized by his explosiveness and speed, and Messi is characterized by his excellent dribbling ability. If Ronnie said it, then he really has a chance to kill Cahill and Terry.

If it really doesn't work, change Hazard and let him go up to share the pressure. His progress with the ball is still very good. Messi suggested.

But at this moment, no one knows what Guardiola is thinking.

It's as if everyone doesn't understand, why is he so obsessed with the ball?

...

Time slowly entered sixty minutes.

Manchester City still has the initiative, and they are still trying and infiltrating.

Chelsea's possession rate is stable in the early 30s, but they still dare not take risks on the offensive end.

There is a very obvious difference from the first half, that is, the battle between the two sides is basically in the midfield.

This represents a change in the tactics of both sides.

If, as in the first half, one side retreated very far behind and the other side attacked very far ahead, there would not be too many fights in the midfields of the two sides, because the retreating side would concentrate all its forces on the defense and let the other side let it go. Take control of the game, and then wait for the opportunity to directly hit the back with a long pass to form a counterattack.

Throughout the process, the midfield was more of a passive defense.

But things are different now. Manchester City retreats appropriately, and Chelsea naturally presses forward a little. Both sides have the opportunity to get the ball, so naturally there will be more battles in the midfield.

For Manchester City, this has a certain risk, because once the opponent seizes the opportunity and hits behind, the defense will be very problematic, but the risk for Chelsea also exists, that is, the overall formation will no longer stick to the penalty area, stay There is also a lot of room for Manchester City to attack.

In the 63rd minute, Chelsea kicked the first shot of the game.

Lampard passed the ball to the right in the midfield, Drogbala went to the wing, played behind Marcelo, dashed the ball into the penalty area, grabbed the ball before Pepe fell, and shot directly and was shot. Courtois saves.

The Belgian goalkeeper did not hold the ball for the first time, and immediately held the ball in his arms after falling to the ground.

There was warm applause from Chelsea fans.

Although it took 63 minutes to kick the first shot, this data is indeed embarrassing enough, but for Chelsea, this is already commendable, after all, the team has stabilized the defense.

And, it was a threatening shot.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, and once there is a first time, there will naturally be a second time.

Chelsea fans began to cheer for the players on the field. The coaches of both sides, Guardiola and Di Matteo, did not intend to make substitutions. The players on the bench took turns to warm up, but no one came on the bench.

Obviously, both of them are waiting.

In the words of the live TV commentator, What if overtime?

Time passed without knowing it.

Just after 70 minutes of the game, Pepe made a sudden scramble, promptly snatched the ball that Ramirez passed to Drogba, and quickly made a straight pass to David Silva in front. at the feet.

The Chelsea players immediately counterattacked on the spot, Lampard pressed David Silva, but the Spanish player directly kicked the ball to the left, only to see that Marcelo had thrown Ramirez away, with the fastest speed. Du moved forward along the left wing, and after receiving a pass from David Silva, he strode forward.

Under the restriction of Ramirez, Marcelo's performance in this game also did not have many bright spots. This time, he rarely got rid of the entanglement of his Brazilian compatriots. He rushed the ball all the way into the 30-meter area of ​​Chelsea and made a direct pass to Di Maria.

Ivanovic reacted fast enough to take the lead and snatched the ball before Di Maria.

The ball was broken, but Ivanovic hadn't controlled the ball yet. Di Maria counterattacked on the spot and stabbed the ball. Marcelo followed, grabbed the ball before Meireles, and kicked the ball. The poke gave the left rib to retreat, Su Dong, who was unguarded.

Ivanovic immediately left Di Maria and ran towards Su Dong.

But Su Dong stopped the ball with his left foot to his left, that is, in the middle. After turning around and getting rid of Ivanovic's defense, he completed a beautiful stop and belt.

This is definitely Su Dong's forte!
