In the end, it was the last game before the new season, and it was the Community Shield, so Chelsea also lined up the main lineup for this game, and Scolari changed his previous four-three-three style of play to a four-four-two.

The goalkeeper is Hilario, Ashley Cole, John Terry, Branislav Ivanovic and Pacos Ferreira at the back, Malouda, Essien, Mikel Mikel and Frank Lampard in midfield, and Robinho and Drogba up front.

Gao Han also sent the main force to play in this game, and discharged three, four, and three formations.

Goalkeeper Petr Cech followed Vincent Kompany, Xavi Martinez and Mascherano at the back, midfielder Xavi Alonso trailed, David Silva and Luka Modric in the middle, Kaka up front and Cristiano Ronaldo, Karima Benzema and Alexis Sanchez up front.

This is also the main lineup that Gao Han wants to belong.

The two sides played a number of games last season and knew each other well, and there was not much probing after the game started, going straight into a fast-paced attacking and defensive battle, and Chelsea were not to be outdone, and the two sides fought fiercely in midfield.

The first threatening attack of the game occurred in the fourth minute, when Benzema suddenly broke the ball successfully, caught Chelsea off guard, and at the same time, also made the surrounding teammates a little too late to react, over the top to pick up a cross to the left, Cristiano Ronaldo followed up and fired a volley, but was saved by goalkeeper Hilario.

This time the attack was launched so suddenly that the Portuguese did not have time to prepare.

The game began to be controlled at the feet of Manchester City, especially with the passing of the ball in central midfield, and Chelsea were somewhat passive on the pitch.

In the eighth minute, Manchester City launched an attack on the right, Sanchez won the ball on the right flank, shook off Ashley Cole's cross, but Kaka, who followed in the middle, volleyed, failed to suppress the ball and kicked away.

But after 10 minutes of Manchester City's attack, Chelsea were quick to seize the opportunity to play a counter-attack.

Mascherano made a mistake with his team-mate's pass and was seized by Chelsea, Drogba passed straight behind him, Robinho received the ball and quickly counter-attacked, and with Xavi Martinez pressing on him, he hurriedly volleyed a long-range volley, but the ball was easily collected by Cech, and Chelsea's first attack came to naught.

Due to the warm-up nature of the game, both sides played very unrestrainedly, without sparing the slightest hand, and Chelsea fought against each other, but neither could create great attacking opportunities, and there was a lack of threat in front of goal.

Finally, in the nineteenth minute of the game, Xavi Alonso's accurate long pass was given to the front, Benzema went to the right side to receive a long pass from his teammates, dribbled the ball and forced a breakthrough to Terry, and the low flat ball was passed to the penalty area, and Kaka, who was inserted in the back row, hit a push shot, sending the ball into the bottom of the net, 1-0.

The goal also opened up the momentum of City's attack.

Just three minutes later, City broke the ball again when Alexis Sanchez sent a pinpoint cross from the right to the penalty spot, where Cristiano Ronaldo struck the left-hand post and bounced back into the box.

After a period of confusion, Branislav Ivanovic scrambled to clear the ball and disrupt one of City's attacks.

But when the game reached the 29th minute, Manchester City once again played a sharp attack, Sanchez on the right side faced Ashley Cole and Malouda two players to take the ball out of the gap, the right side of the penalty area crossed to the back point, Cristiano Ronaldo this time calmly seized the opportunity, jumped high, headered, 2-0.

Just two minutes later, Luka Modric delivered a pinpoint through ball from the middle, Sanchez slotted diagonally into the box from the right at high speed, received the ball and formed a one-on-one shot, but the last push was saved by goalkeeper Hilario.

The two sides continued to play each other aggressively, with City relying on their passing advantage to create more and more dangerous attacking opportunities, but Chelsea were also tenacious, falling behind by two goals but not discouraged at all, and the two teams fought fiercely.

It wasn't until near the end of the first half that Manchester City scored again, when Benzema received a pass from Kaka, forced his way through the defense of Branislav Ivanovic and John Terry, entered the penalty area, and fired a shot against the goalkeeper to break through the Chelsea goal again, 3-0.

With three goals in a row, Manchester City played a smooth attack in the first half, and everyone saw that Gao Han's team was continuing the amazing performance in the second half of last season.

But Gao Han is very aware of this.

The main reason why the first half of this game went so smoothly was that Chelsea did not play conservatively either, and Scolari's two midfielders, Mikel and Essien, were a bit lacking in the back two positions.

Therefore, Gao Han is very skeptical, whether Scolari will really use 442 as Chelsea's main formation?

In the second half, Manchester City had three goals in hand, which can be said to be the winning ticket, and Gao Han also replaced four substitutions in one go, replacing Cristiano Ronaldo, Sanchez, Kaka and Modric, and replacing Gareth Bale, Sturridge, Adam Lallana and Milner.

The purpose of Gao Han's substitution is clear, that is, to use Chelsea to run in the team's new signings, especially several midfield players, Gao Han wants to see how they can play against Chelsea.

Although he was already three goals behind, Scolari clearly did not give up the race for the Community Shield, and he did not make a big substitution like Gao Han, but continued to play with the main line-up, and increased his attacking intensity in the second half.

After this put Manchester City in trouble for a while, Gao Han even had to use defensive cards and confrontation cards to stabilize the team's defensive position, but even so, Chelsea still dominated the second half.

It wasn't until the 65th minute that Gao Han used two substitutions again, replacing Kompany with Vertonghen and Xavi Alonso with Zabaleta.

However, less than two minutes after this substitution, Chelsea also made a substitution, with Falcao starting in place of Drogba, and the team also re-formed the four-three-three, with Falcao playing as a lone striker, Robinho and Arshavin on the wings, and Malouda, Essien and Frank Lampard forming a midfield three.

As a result, less than a minute after Falcao came on, Essien broke the ball in the middle and played a fatal through ball, Falcao successfully countered offside and scored a solo goal past Petr Cech to pull a goal back for Chelsea.

After recovering a goal, Chelsea's morale was boosted and they began to launch a furious attack on Manchester City, and Falcao soon received a pass from Arshavin on the right in the 85th minute, won the ball on the edge of the six-yard box and pushed it to score again, making it 3-2.

After scoring two goals in a row, the Blues were in high spirits and had the momentum to tie the score, but City also quickly launched a wave of counter-attacks, especially with the blessing of the alpine skill card, Sturridge cut inside on the right and hit the crossbar with a volley, which made Chelsea break out in a cold sweat.

After that, the two sides entered a stalemate, and neither of them could score again.

In the end, Manchester City defeated Chelsea 3-2 and won the Community Shield.

This is also the first Community Shield title in Gao Han's coaching career.

However, City also exposed a number of problems in the game, such as the lack of quality in the bench and the lack of convincing performances from several new signings, even Gareth Bale, who shone at Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of last season.

In the second half of this game, Gao Han consciously asked Xavi Alonso to retreat the whole formation, mainly focusing on the middle line, in order to give full play to the speed and impact of Gareth Bale and Sturridge on the wings.

However, firstly, Chelsea's pressing and pressing were good, and secondly, the players were not skillful enough to cooperate with each other, resulting in Gareth Bale not playing very well on the left, but Sturridge on the right did well on several occasions.

In the middle, Adam Lallana continues to be in the middle, his reference is the transformed Kaka, who is already very satisfied with this kind of performance, as for Milner, he is not as good as Modric in passing, but he has contributed a lot in defence.

The only problem is what Gao Han said, the tactical awareness is weak, and the landing rate needs to be strengthened.

Vertonghen was arguably the saddest second-half of the game, coming on as a substitute for 30 minutes and conceding two goals that had something to do with him, leaving the Belgian alive before the pitch and off the pitch like a lost dog.

But Gao Han didn't plan to talk to the players after the game, and he felt that sometimes the right blow was not necessarily a bad thing for a player with a big heart like Vertonghen.

…………

…………

Won the Community Shield from Wembley Stadium, but Manchester City's performance in the first half was very different, which made the evaluation of many media reporters also polarized, believing that the first half was a dream, the second half was a disaster, and angels and devils coexisted.

Gao Han didn't pay attention to this at all, and said in an interview with the media that he was very satisfied with the performance of the players in both halves, and there were indeed some problems in the game, but this also means that the team still has room for improvement and improvement.

"As I've always emphasised, my role is to solve problems when they arise. ”

"If the team is perfect enough to have no problems, then I should be out of work. ”

said so to the outside world, but the attitude of Gao Han in the team was relatively tough.

Early the next morning, at the summary meeting after the team's recovery training, Gao Han pointed out the various problems exposed by the team in the upper and lower halves, especially in the second half, and it was undesirable to concede two goals.

On one occasion, Vertonghen was the first to return to the defense, but he failed to retract in time, causing the distance between him and Xavi Martinez to be too large, and Essien's through ball tore apart the defence.

And the second goal conceded was even more undeserved.

Vertonghen came off the bench with occasional signs of bewilderment and looked a bit distracted, only to be seized by the keen Colombian striker, which, combined with Arshavin's well-placed pass, knocked on Petr Cech's goal once again.

It should be said that the two goals conceded were personal problems, and Gao Han also unceremoniously pointed out them at the post-match summary meeting.

But at the same time, he also gave Vertonghen affirmation, because the Belgian central defender has shown strength and standard in several press-ups and defenses, Gao Han believes that this is a very good phenomenon, and firmly believes that Vertonghen will have an excellent performance after integrating into the team.

Radish and stick, which is also a common means of beating young players in the high cold.

In addition to Vertonghen, a number of other players have also been criticised by Gao Han, but Gao Han finally believes that there is still a week to go before the new season, and the team still has plenty of time to prepare and improve.

After the morning recovery training, Gao Han announced that the team would have a day off, and the players would adjust themselves to prepare for the new season.

Just when Gao Han disbanded the team and was driving home, he suddenly received a phone call.
