The Young Lion - Chapter 1170

Millwall and Chelsea players returned to the stadium with the same spirit, and the two sides changed sides and fought.

Mourinho stood on the sidelines and concentrated, he wanted to observe the adjustment made by Millwall in the second half.

First of all, Chelsea is sure to have undergone a new round of tactical adjustments at midfield, but it cannot completely rely on the content displayed in the first half of the venue as the basis for adjustment.

Aldridge is a well-known on-the-spot conductor artist. If this layer of factors is not taken into account, Chelsea’s adjustment is likely to have a wrong direction.

For this reason, Mourinho must have his own “pre-judgment”.

On the one hand, such a pre-judgment is based on the characteristics of the opponent, that is, his understanding of the characteristics of Aldridge’s on-site adjustment, and on the other hand, based on his own experience, he changed to himself, breaking the boat when 0:2. , What should I do?

Similarly, Aldridge is also concerned about the adjustment of Chelsea in the second half.

Although Aldridge feels that the possibility of Chelsea’s adjustment is 55, he can’t make a conclusive assertion.

He was a little afraid in his heart, this fear was Mourinho’s ultimate utilitarianism!

What if the Chelsea midfielder replaces Robben?

Replace with a defensive player to further strengthen the defense!

Drogba’s hard work on the defensive end must be completely higher than Robben, and it can even be said that Robben is a common problem with traditional offensive genius: unwilling to defend.

For Robbens like this: the best game environment is not as good as other teammates to defend, he just attacked in the frontcourt and played happy.

But this probability is still relatively low.

Considering Robben’s excellent performance in the first half, he has contributed to both goals. Mourinho didn’t dare to replace Robben in 45 minutes. It was a forced rebellion against Robben!

This is the Champions League final!

And the risk of this substitution is too great, too big to bet with the coach’s life!

If replacing Robben to strengthen the defense and eventually lose the game, this substitution will destroy Mourinho I’s reputation, and this shame will be accompanied by a lifetime, it will never be wiped out, and he will have a future coaching career. Negative blow beyond imagination.

Because the stakes are too large, Mourinho can’t even think about it. He can only squeeze all the energy of Chelsea players on the field and invest in the defense as much as possible. As long as he does not lose the ball, the championship trophy will come to Stamford Bridge!

When the second half of the game only took 3 minutes, Aldridge’s eyes suddenly became sharp on the sidelines, and there was no sign of a grin. Although it was only fleeting, it exposed his inner crazy thoughts at the moment.

Mourinho!

why?

why?

Why did you make such adjustments?

On the field, Chelsea strengthened the defense in the penalty area. Makelele’s position was obviously withdrawn and he could support the back line at any time!

At first glance, Chelsea made the restricted area even tighter.

In contemporary European football, offense can shape the game situation, such as Millwall, Barcelona’s controlled play, defense can also shape the game situation, such as the English national team coached by Aldridge, Rehagel’s Greece team, Mu Chelsea of ​​Rinio, as well as those strong and super stable teams that appear from time to time in Italy, this is actually control, but not the control of the ball, but the control of space!

Under such a control concept, if the defense zone is absolutely ruled and the opponent does nothing here, then the opponent cannot score goals!

This is similar to the fact that the opponent who controls the ball can’t get the ball and can’t attack naturally.

But this adjustment of Chelsea is simply a gift from the snow!

why?

What Millwall wants to strengthen is midfield control. Instead, the opponent strengthens the restricted area. It is conceivable that with the balance between them, Millwall will not only restore control of the midfield, but also have the potential to play a dominant role!

why?

why?

Mourinho, why?

At the end of this crazy thought, Aldridge silently said in his mind: Mourinho, why? Because it is Mourinho!

At the same time, Mourinho witnessed the situation on the field and observed the change in Millwall’s formation in the second half. He frowned deeply and murmured subconsciously: “How could this be?”

After Millwall weakened the center, there was no Millwall player in Chelsea’s restricted area during the offensive of positional battles, and even the outside of the restricted area could not see the threat point!

According to Mourinho’s understanding of Audric’s on-site command.

At this time, it should be the time to exert the power of changing forward, or, bring the knife guard to advance!

With such a “non-advance and retreat” style of play, Aldridge has never used it in a backward situation in a key game!

Chelsea players don’t have much thought on the field, especially the defensive players on the back line, without the marking target, their defense zone is absolutely safe and looks very comfortable.

But what about in the midfield? It’s another picture.

Kaka, Ronaldinho, Alonso, De Rossi, plus the full-backs stepped forward, the winger widened the field width, Millwall concentrated on the midfield for a quick and smooth pass, Chelsea players had no chance to touch the ball There is no chance of fouling.

Lampard, Ballack, Essien, Drogba, these four are the main force in the midfield defense, but they must take care of their respective defense zones. Makelele’s task in the second half is to mark the offensive point that his opponent accidentally inserted. For example, the full-back is inserted diagonally into the penalty area, or the back is inserted forward, so he will not rush out, and Robben mostly defends symbolically. It is understandable that he is a key figure in Chelsea’s attack and defense conversion and counterattack. The first time he ran out of space, the ball was controlled, and then he threatened to counterattack.

But now, the Chelsea midfielder is completely lost!

Millwall passes through a dazzling series of fast passes to contain his opponent and interfere with his attention.

Under such circumstances, Millwall is more likely to have players in small spaces to create opportunities.

After the opponent’s rhythm couldn’t keep up, Millwall showed the first point of improvement in the first half: the long shot opportunity!

In the first half, when there is no advantage in the midfield, it is difficult to find opportunities for long-range shots. It is not impossible to make long-range shots, but it will always be interfered or guarded by the opponent.

Now the ball is running fast, the player runs and tears the space in front of the penalty area, and then passes the ball to the teammate who is temporarily unmarked. The teammate can fully play the long-range strength naturally.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Ram, Alonso, Kaka, and the three passed the ball in succession. Kaka knocked the ball back after making a false breakthrough in front of Makelele.

Ronaldinho, who leaned slightly to the left behind him, drove forward, stopped the ball with his right foot, stepped on the step, and shot a high-quality long shot with the foot of the foot!

He didn’t hit the arc that fell from high altitude, but aimed at the lower left corner of Chelsea goal!

The ball passed through the gap between Carvalho and Ferreira, then there may be less than one meter of space, but Ronaldinho’s ball shot through from there!

“Ronaldinho has a long shot! Chelsea’s goal is dangerous! Cech! Cech! Cech makes a limit save and he blocks the ball with a single palm! Oh, oh, OMG! The goal is scored! The goal is scored The ball blocked by Cech slowed down, the ball was in the penalty area, C Ronaldo caught up with the shot and easily kicked the ball into the goal! The referee found that C Ronaldo did not offside, from the slow-motion playback It also confirmed that the referee’s penalty was accurate! C Ronaldo did not offside! Only 8 minutes into the second half, Millwall immediately pulled back a goal!”

After Ronaldo scored a goal, he directly rushed to the goal goal and held the ball in his arms. He broke away from Chelsea’s encircling circle trying to prolong the time. He left the ball to jog towards the midfield, his right hand pointed to the sky, and his face was determined to be tenacious!

The crazy lion fans in the stands roared passionately, cheering Ronaldo’s goal, and also proud of Millwall’s fighting spirit!

Chelsea players are a little bit calm.

They didn’t understand that obviously the second half was a more defensive defense than the first half, but why did the opponent score a goal?

Maybe it was bad luck.

If Cech rushes the ball or blocks the bottom line, Ronaldo will not have a supplementary shot.

Mourinho looked dignified on the sidelines.

He knew that this was the role played by Aldridge’s tactical adjustment!

It’s too obvious!

It’s too obvious!

In the first half, and for many years in the past, Millwall had additional shot opportunities in the penalty area, or the focus of the two-point attack, there were different distributions.

Outside, there are follow-ups from midfielders. The middle of the penalty area is either the center or the midfielder. The right side of the penalty area is the right side. The earliest is Larsen. C Ronaldo has been in the past two years.

However, following the two points on the left side of the penalty area, Millwall has not done well and is relatively weak.

Because Ronaldinho played a left winger, he is not a traditional winger, nor is he completely a modern winger. He is like a wing forward, grabbing points, making up shots, and he is rarely responsible for that kind of work, or he sends shells in the periphery Either a personal breakthrough, or even a positive forward in an attack, but make up shots, follow up, grab points, this kind of work is really not Ronaldinho doing.

However, after Ronaldo moved to the left, his threat to the penalty area and the threat to the goal were different from Ronaldinho at first. Secondly, at two points to follow up, Chelsea players have not been able to adapt to this change.

2:1 now!

How to do?

Mourinho made a gesture on the sidelines, so that the players should not be slack or shaken, and continue to defend!

Chelsea players should also find that Millwall’s control of the midfield has been horrified, but being scored is like opening a gate filled with wind and blowing their backs to cool and guarding the penalty area. It is the most basic defense. In front of the powerful Millwall, let them rush out of the penalty zone to re-disturb Millwall’s midfield. The players are actually stunned in thinking and looking ahead!

Mourinho tried not to show anxiety or panic on the sidelines.

He also constantly comforted himself in his heart and reminded himself.

Only 2:1, still leading, still leading!

What if 2:2? So what? !

From the perspective of the game, Chelsea still has a big advantage!

The energy to keep fighting!

Even at 2:2 in 90 minutes, Mourinho firmly believes that in overtime, Chelsea will be able to use this level of advantage to defeat Millwall in one fell swoop.

Moreover, it is only 2:1 now.

Panic!
