Strong Waist

"The first half of the game is over. Chelsea's performance was much worse than we expected. Conte's three-centre-back formation did not show the expected effect. Instead, Arsenal used it to continuously exert pressure. I think Chelsea's performance in the second half was A change has to be made, and it needs to be done quickly!”

The implication is that Chelsea must make a substitution.

The three central defenders obviously cannot withstand Arsenal's attack, and they must switch to a four-back style of play.

And this change is urgent. If we delay for some time, Chelsea will probably lose three points, let alone equalize at home.

This has a great impact on their winning streak and ranking in the standings some time ago.

"We have to make changes! ASAP!"

In the Chelsea dressing room, Azpilicueta said with an irritated look.

There was too much pressure on their backline throughout the first half.

Arsenal's high press blocked their path to the ball, and with their overall forward pressure and grabbing, Chelsea's defense encountered a severe test and was almost penetrated by the opponent.

If they don't return to the back four, they will inevitably concede goals in the second half.

Conte also recognized the seriousness of the problem. Although the three-center-back style can enhance the midfield and overall mobility, Chelsea obviously did not achieve the desired effect.

Actually the problem is in the midfield.

When the midfield is suppressed, this pressure will move back to the defense, eventually causing the entire tactic to collapse.

Conte needs to admit that this was a miscalculation on his part.

"Terry go warm up!"

Chelsea's old captain Terry, as a veteran, has not played in a game for a long time.

His condition has recovered well during this period, but he is already in a situation where he has not played a game and may retire at any time.

Now, Conte can only send Terry on the field and focus on the back four.

Seeing the old captain going to warm up, Chelsea's players felt a little calmer.

At the same time, they are also discussing how to regain the field in the second half.

On the other hand, Arsenal is more of staying put.

"In the second half, Kai's position was slightly restored. We will first observe Chelsea's playing style and changes before making specific adjustments!"

With a one-goal lead, Arsenal can deal with the second half of the game more calmly.

Now they just need to stabilize the situation, take advantage of the lead, and continue to put pressure on the opponent.

There is no doubt that Chelsea will be more anxious in the second half and their offensive pressure will be great.

What Arsenal needs to do is to prescribe the right medicine and make corresponding adjustments based on understanding the opponent's tactical intentions.

Mourinho is still very confident in his on-the-field command.

And with the strong points of Lucky + Kanter in the midfield, even if they face the most intense attack, they can resist for a period of time, giving Mourinho enough time to react.

Soon, halftime was over.

Players from both sides returned to the court.

"Chelsea made changes. Terry came on as a substitute in the second half. This is the third time Terry has come off the bench this season, but this time Terry is under more pressure than before."

"Chelsea were not only trailing at this point, but they were also fighting Arsenal's attacking pressure."

As soon as the words fell, Arsenal kicked off quickly.

As soon as the game started, Arsenal took advantage of Aubameyang's attack point and made a breakthrough directly on the left wing.

The ball was passed, Lukaku turned his back and Wilshere followed up and shot.

The ball went slightly over the crossbar and flew into the stands.

As soon as the second half started, Arsenal took the lead.

This attack shocked everyone at Chelsea into a cold sweat.

"Arsenal's offense still showed a strong desire to score goals in the second half, but Chelsea never seemed to find the feeling of the game!"

Commentator Paul Merson shook his head and said: "Chelsea's defense is still not stable enough, but we can look forward to their offensive performance."

Chelsea took a goal kick, and after receiving the ball from the full-back, he immediately passed it to the midfielder.

However, the midfielder was forced to pass back under pressure.

Generally speaking, defenders at this time have a certain amount of preparation time.

But Arsenal's players went straight past the midfielder and ran straight forward.

David Luiz just received the ball, and he had no choice but to destroy it with his big kick.

The ball was once again captured by Arsenal.

"Damn it!

"

Fabregas cursed secretly, he played extremely depressed.

The whole game was suppressed, and his performance was not particularly outstanding. The worst thing was that he couldn't even control the ball and played passively throughout the game.

This feels bad.

Emotions such as eagerness, anxiety, irritability, anger, etc. are spreading in the hearts of Chelsea players.

At this time, they were still at a disadvantage, and they were still lagging behind.

This is simply the worst script ever!

“Got to get the ball!”

Thinking of this, Fabregas rushed straight towards Lucky.

"Fabregas rushed towards Lucky, he was planning to grab the ball himself!"

Fabregas's defensive ability is not particularly good, but he was forced to have no choice at this time.

As soon as Cesc Fabregas came over, Lucky moved the ball to the left, and the former followed suit.

But Lucky suddenly pulled the ball, and Yangzhuang wanted to break through from the left. Fabregas twisted his waist to follow up again.

However, Lucai chose to spike the ball again.

Three consecutive shakes knocked Fabregas to the ground.

Lucky, on the other hand, easily completed the breakthrough.

"Fabregas was knocked down, Arsenal's offensive opportunity!"

Matic immediately rushed towards Lucky, trying to restrain the opponent.

But at this time, Lucky had already passed the ball to Wilshere, who strode the ball directly into the penalty area.

After another flurry of action, the ball was cleared by Azpilicueta and kicked out of the sideline.

"Chelsea's! They were playing too anxiously. Fabregas was too anxious. He shouldn't have made the move. He just had to follow Kai!"

After Paul Mawson finished speaking, Dixon sighed; "I'm afraid I can't keep up!"

"From the two changes of direction just now, we can see that Fabregas's turning movement is obviously much slower. This is the difference of being six years younger! The body functions are at different levels. We need to admit that Fabregas is now Gase can no longer play the same flexible football as before!"

Fabregas got up from the ground. His expression seemed indifferent, but his heart was full of bitterness.

When he was knocked down by Lucai three times in a row, the unwillingness, anger, bitterness and other emotions in his heart made him extremely uncomfortable.

His thinking and judgment can keep up with Lucky's movements.

But only my body can’t keep up.

This is the most painful thing.

Coincidentally, after Fabregas was knocked down by Lucky, Chelsea's defense had problems.

In the 67th minute, Chelsea finally found a chance to attack. Hazard's shot from a small angle in the penalty area was held by goalkeeper Martinez.

Martinez also stood up quickly and passed forward with his feet.

This time, he did not pass to Aubameyang, but chose Mane.

At this time, Chelsea's formation was overall forward, and Martinez's kick found Mane's running route.

Therefore, except for Terry, who was behind in Chelsea, no one else had time at all.

Terry kept retreating, judging Mane and where the ball would land.

But soon, he panicked.

too fast!

Mane's starting speed and running speed are too fast.

This resulted in Terry being quickly caught up.

In desperation, Terry thought about taking off and heading the ball to clear the ball.

But his judgment was slightly misjudged, and the ball fell behind his scalp.

Terry even slipped and fell directly to the ground.

Terry's mind was blank at this moment, and he subconsciously wanted to grab Mane's ankles.

But the arms stretched out and grabbed air.

When Terry looked up again, Mane entered the penalty area with the ball, faced the attacking goalkeeper, and steadily drove the ball into their goal.

Arsenal scored again in the second half.

With Chelsea losing two goals, they are likely to suffer a defeat in this round.

However, compared to the failure, the commentators focused more on Terry and Cesc Fabregas.

Paul Merson said with emotion; "Two consecutive mistakes, Terry and Fabregas, these two players we once trusted extremely, their abilities and honors are enough to support a team, but now they Already at the end of their careers! We need to admit that they are old!”

The fans were also filled with emotion.

Lucky's shaking and Mane's speed are telling everyone that the players of Terry and Fabregas' era are getting older.

It has become a given that the older generation of players will leave the main stage.

And a wonderful new era is about to begin!
