Zero to one.

In the Premier League it is the least safe score, because it is the best score to tie.

That's the case with Aston Villa.They were not discouraged at all after falling behind by one goal away from home.O'Leary kept waving his arms on the sidelines, telling them to attack.Of course, O'Leary also saw West Ham's offensive strength.

Especially the three small players Ribery, Arshavin and Defoe all have excellent running ability, breakthrough ability and passing ability.They work well together in small spaces.

As long as Aston Villa have a gap in the middle, they can take advantage of it.

So O'Leary let the Aston Villa players inward.Whether it is a midfielder or a backcourt player, let them all choose to retract to protect the middle.Don't give Ribery and them space to pass and break through.Then choose the easiest way to play.

Rely on the 1.9-meter-one Carlton Cole.

Keep making long passes to find Carlton Cole, and then use him to control the ball, or pass it to someone else.The long pass style of the Premier League team is very direct and has many mistakes, so the teams in continental Europe despise this style of play.I think this is a very inefficient way of playing.

A perfect coach like Cruyff looks down on England's style of play.

However, the English team has played the long pass for so many years, and has a deep understanding of this style of play.Although this style of play will lead to a lot of passing errors, as long as there is one success, it can become a threat.

In fact, it is the same as hitting behind.

Hitting behind is also a very simple routine, and the success rate is not high.But as long as there is one success, it is fatal.Therefore, English football highly respects this style of play.

It was very lively.

Chen Ping looked at it for a long time, but his brows did not relax.Chen Ping hates such English teams the most.There is no technical content in kicking football at all. The ball floats around in the air, but it can hit you with a "boom, bang, bang".

As long as you have a small mistake in the defense, then you will lose the ball.And no matter how good the defense is, it is impossible not to make a mistake.Therefore, Chen Ping hated such a simple style of play very much.

"Michael, come here."

Carlton Cole is 1.9 meters, and only Pepe can defend him in West Ham's defense.However, although Pepe is the same age as Carlton Cole, his height, jumping ability, speed, and body are not bad.

But after all, it is the first time to play in the Premier League.

Facing the Premier League center experience is very lacking.Pepe is a Brazilian player who also played in the Portuguese League in the past few years.They pay more attention to technology and walk on the ground when they play football.

Pepe has never played against an English team before, and today is the first time he has played against a real English high center forward.

Some strenuous.

Carlton Cole is not very old, he is only 21 years old this year.But Carlton Cole was born in an authentic Chelsea youth training, and has been educated by an England center since he was a child.

Very suitable for playing this style of tactics.

And with Aston Villa retracting, there is indeed less room for a breakthrough.West Ham's offense and defense have been tested.Now that Aston Villa has changed, Chen Ping will also change accordingly.When the ball was dead, Carrick was called over immediately.

"Michael, you drop back and let Leo come forward to defend. You help Pepe to mark Carlton Cole and also step back to build the attack. The ball goes to both sides and let them cross."

Since Aston Villa doesn't want to play sideways, then Chen Ping will die on the sideways.

West Ham has a full-back with a strong assist ability.Since you are adducting, I will hit the cross.And West Ham has a powerful center like Lambert, it is too wasteful not to use crosses.

"Yes."

Carrick nodded.

Leo Cork's height is 1.7 meters [-], let him help Pepe mark Carlton Cole, a little powerless.And because Aston Villa retracted, the middle lane was very congested.

It was very difficult for Carrick to organize the attack in front.

Because Aston Villa's midfield players are piled up in the middle, Carrick always has one or two defensive players following Carrick.

Chen Ping simply pulled Carrick back and let Leo Kirk step forward to defend.Leo Cork can run, tackle and disrupt Aston Villa's attack up front.And Carrick retreats, there is a lot more space, and he can organize the attack very calmly.

"Pepe, hit him, hit him."

Carrick retreated after receiving Chen Ping's order, and came to Pepe to hold Pepe.Pepe has just arrived in England and is not yet familiar with English.Carrick didn't say much, just kept saying to him: "Bump him, bump him."

Pepe's English is not good, but this sentence is understood.

Some strenuous.

Pepe was struggling to defend Carlton Cole.But this is not a reason of strength, it is entirely a matter of experience.It's really because Pepe has never played against an England center forward.

In the last game, Blackburn was too weak and Pepe was not threatened.

But Carlton Cole was different.

Authentic English center, playing traditional English style of play.Pepe didn't get used to it for a while, and couldn't get the ball all the time.That's why Carrick told Pepe what to do.

It's useless to think too much.

After all, Pepe is influenced by Brazilian football and Portuguese football. It will take time to adapt to the Premier League.So Carrick told Pepe directly, don't think about how to limit Carlton Cole, but directly choose the simplest and most direct way, which is to hit him.

Pepe has a good body and a strong impact.

Compared to thinking about how to restrict Carlton Cole, it is better to hit him with your body and prevent Carlton Cole from controlling and passing the ball calmly. This is the simplest and most direct way.

"kindness."

Pepe nodded.

Carlton Cole is 1.9 meters tall, but weighs less than [-] kilograms, and is a little thin.

"Mellberry, long pass."

Aston Villa doesn't go in the middle at all now, and the defense line takes the ball to find Carlton Cole.Then there is the midfielder going forward, cooperating with Carlton Cole and Vassell.

This time too.

Mellberry sent a long ball straight to Carlton Cole.Pepe didn't know how to defend Carlton Cole, but he listened to Carrick and went up to bump him and hit him.

In terms of strength, Carlton Cole is really not as good as Pepe.

The two took off together, and Pepe didn't think about grabbing the header. All he thought about was hitting Carlton Cole hard.In fact, Pepe's physical collision is rare in Portugal.Even this kind of bumping may result in a foul.But since this is England, Pepe is not afraid.It looks like he is going to grab the header, but in fact it is directly hitting someone.

"Carlton Cole, Carlton Cole header, Carrick! Carrick!"

Carlton Cole was hit a bit hard by Pepe, he couldn't grasp his balance in the air, and he couldn't pass the header well.Originally, he wanted to throw the ball to Vassell who was on the side.Vassell is fast and can create threats as long as he gets the ball.

But Carrick stared at this after retreating.

Carrick's brain is very active, and he is one of the few players in England who plays football with his brain.Although he retreated and stood in the position of central defender, it was no problem for Carrick at all.Carrick adjusted his position himself.

Carlton Cole headed the ball, and Carrick appeared in front of the ball in an instant, and Vassell hadn't reacted yet.Consciously, Carrick is definitely one of the best players in England.

Allowing Carrick to retreat, in addition to allowing Carrick more space, is to fancy Carrick's excellent awareness.

"Carrick, Carrick long pass!"

fast.

In the transition between offense and defense, what Chen Ping asked for was fast.Carrick controlled the ball and passed it to the left in the first moment.At this time, the consequences of Aston Villa's adduction came out.

The adduction is too strong, the defense in the center is very good, but the entire wing is empty.

"Martin Anthony, Martin Anthony...Martin Anthony, cross!"

Because the adduction is too deep, although Hendry immediately stepped forward after Martin Anthony took the ball, it was still too late.There is something to be said for defensive wing crosses.

Even if you can't limit his cross, you still have to interfere with his cross.It is absolutely impossible to allow wide players to cross comfortably, especially when there is a strong center in the penalty area.

If you let the side cross easily, the quality of the cross will be very high.But Hendry was slow and failed to interfere with Martin Anthony's cross.

"Lambert, Lambert came to the front point... Lambert, rub back."

tacit agreement.

There is a tacit understanding between Lambert and Martin Anthony. After all, the two have cooperated since Oxford United.Martin Anthony made a cross, and Lambert quickly came to the front point.Although someone interfered, Lambert could completely shake his head and attack the goal.

But Lambert didn't hit the goal.

It seemed that he wanted to attack the goal, but in the end he chose to rub back.Instead, the ball flew to the back.

"Defoe, Defoe header!"

"goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Defoe! Defoe! It's Defoe!"

Although both Defoe and Ribery are wingers, they are both young and fast.But the playing styles of the two are different.Ribery is a winger with strong breakthrough ability, capable of passing and shooting.

Defoe was different.

Although Defoe played as a winger, he was actually a true striker.Compared with dribbling and breaking through, Defoe has better running ability.Defoe is more about running in the frontcourt, and the passing task is handed over to Arshavin and Ribery.

This time too.

When Lambert headed the ball, Ribery was near the corner of the penalty area and Arshavin was near the penalty spot.Defoe was completely different, and ran to the back point very astutely.

Lambert's back rub, the ball just came to the back point.

Defoe is short, but his ability to grab points is still very good.Going forward is a head-shaking attack.

"Two to zero, two to zero. With Defoe's goal, West Ham has a two-to-zero lead before the end of the first half. Aston Villa is two goals behind in the away game."
