Chapter 381: Siege the Master Must Que
At half-time, there were no substitutions and no major tactical changes, but Chelsea continued to play the same way they played in the first half, and everything looked as if it was the same as the first. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But sitting in the coach's box, Wenger was always a little uneasy.
He noticed a sign that Chelsea's front three looked a little different from the first half.
But what the difference is, he can't say at all, it's just a feeling.
He has always been confident in his instincts, which he has gained over many years of coaching experience.
But on the pitch, Arsenal's performance improved from the first half.
The first shot of the opening kick was born at the feet of Henry, it was Ljungberg on the right who forced a breakthrough, and after being brought down by Bridge, Henry took a free kick, but could not hold the ball down and went high.
But just two minutes later, Arsenal had another chance.
Striker Wiltord took the ball up front and crossed for Henry to tackle, but it went just wide.
Soon, it was Chelsea's forward pass and reception error, giving Arsenal a chance, the back launched a counterattack, Vieira passed the ball to the right, Ljungberg rushed forward with the ball, but was blocked by Bridge on the right side, a hasty cross, was also easily picked off by Van der Sar, and defused an attack of Arsenal.
Seeing Arsenal's offensive in the second half, not only the fans in Highbury Stadium cheered, but even assistant coach Pat Rice was excited, as if he saw the dawn of the team's turnaround.
Only Arsene Wenger instinctively sensed some danger signs.
'Chelsea's pressing seems to have loosened up a lot. Arsene Wenger said worriedly.
When Pat Rice heard this, he noticed, "Well, it's a lot of relaxation, probably because of too much physical exertion." ”
According to the spelling in the first half, Chelsea may not be able to support the whole game even if it is an iron body.
And now the situation is that as soon as Chelsea's pressing is loosened, Arsenal's chance will come.
But, is that really the case?
Arsene Wenger was skeptical.
…………
…………
"Okay, it's Ljungberg from the right again, dribbling into the penalty area......"
Van der Sar reacted very quickly and blocked the ball with a single punch. ”
'The Dutch goalkeeper saved Chelsea at a crucial moment!'
'Arsenal's most threatening attack of the game, Ljungberg's shot was a pity and couldn't get on the scoresheet. ”
'We saw that at the start of the second half, Arsenal adjusted their attacking strategy and switched more to Ljungberg's right flank, which made Chelsea's defence a little struggling and the goal was in danger......
…………
…………
"What's going on?"
Abramovich looked anxious, "Everything was fine in the first half, why did it become like this in the second half?"
Although he failed to score in the first half, he at least controlled the situation steadily, but in the second half, the situation was completely suppressed by Arsenal, even if he wanted to take turns in feng shui, it did not turn so fast.
"There is a saying in professional football, if you attack for a long time, you will lose, and if you can't attack for a long time, not only will your morale be greatly affected, but it will also be easy to expose your own problems and be seized by the opponent, which is quite dangerous. Pini Zahavi frowned.
Marina Granovskia, after the audit, said, "Gao Han should have expected it, right?"
Pini Zahavi smiled slightly, "It's hard to say, the advantage in the first half was so obvious, it's hard to guarantee that he won't be careless, or want to take some risks, but you know, Wenger is not a fuel-efficient lamp." ”
After Abramovich heard this, he was also anxious.
If he didn't have much nervousness and dedication when he watched Atletico Madrid play Manchester United, Real Madrid and even AC Milan as a spectator, now he has completely put himself in the role of Chelsea owner and integrated with the team.
He would rather see his team beat their opponents than be terrified.
Pini Zahavi kept an eye on Abramovich's expression, and at this time he already knew it and sighed softly.
'If you could have scored a goal in the first half, it's a completely different situation now. ”
When Abramovich heard this, his heart moved.
…………
…………
Gao Han didn't know what was happening in the stands, and it was impossible to know what everyone present was thinking, he sat in the coach's box, carefully observing the situation in the second half, and still looked like he was winning.
"Our Chinese ancestors and grandsons have such a saying, the teacher must be que. Gao Han smiled faintly.
"What do you mean?" Cantarero was confused.
This means that when we encircle the enemy, we should deliberately leave a gap, so that the besieged enemy will waver and lose the morale of the army, and if we are surrounded on all sides, it will easily cause the opponent to die. ”
Speaking of this, Gao Han smiled slightly, "Leave them on the left side in the first half and the right side in the second half, that's the reason, so that they won't stick to it." ”
As the saying goes, rabbits can bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention that Arsenal is a cannon.
If Chelsea continue to play like in the first half, pressing high and pressing, Arsenal will still adopt a steady counter-attacking tactic, which will not be good for Chelsea.
At the very least, the attacking aspects of the squad have not been fully straightened out, especially with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Samuel Eto'o.
Therefore, Gao Han adopted another strategy and let it go after the start of the second half.
Before hitting someone, first withdraw your fist, clench it, slowly accumulate strength, seize the opportunity, and punch it out again.
Although I didn't fully understand Gao Han's words, I always felt that it made sense, but Emery still didn't quite understand, "Then when are we going to fight again?"
"Wait. Gao Han said very pennyly.
I waited for ten minutes.
During these 10 minutes, Arsenal continued to intensify their attack, but Chelsea also did not give an inch, and the two sides attacked and defended each other.
It wasn't until the 63rd minute of the second half that Arsenal attacked on the left, Henry lost the ball under the bag of Makelele and Ferreira, and Terry cut in and cleared the ball to the right.
Eto'o was ready to go like a bolt of lightning, quickly cutting in from behind and chasing the ball.
The Arsenal fans in the stadium stands were in shock.
When Gao Han saw this scene, his eyes lit up, "Good opportunity!"
Ashley Cole had just stepped forward to get in on the attack, and although he was chasing back quickly, he was still some way behind Eto'o.
In other words, now the front court is two against two!
I saw Gao Hanli enter the coaching system and start using skill cards.
"Start with a five-star attacking card, target: Ibrahimovic. ”
"Start using a five-star assault card, target: Eto'o. ”
"Successfully activated the combo card effect, and it improved by leaps and bounds. ”
On the pitch, Samuel Eto'o was as fast as he could, leaving Ashley Cole behind, ahead of Campbell and catching up with the ball.
Campbell wasn't as agile as Samuel Eto'o, but he was stuck on the inside of the box, denying the Cameroonian player a chance to cut inside and push Eto'o down the line and down the wing.
However, Eto'o made a sudden stop and stopped the ball.
Campbell was also prepared, and he also made an emergency stop and quickly stabilized his body.
But as soon as he stopped, Eto'o suddenly started again and drove the ball to the bottom line.
In the middle of this stop, Eto'o relied on his excellent starting speed to force a little distance from Campbell and played a low ball with his right foot into the six-yard box.
At this time, Ibrahimovic arrived from behind, firmly blocked Kolo Toure on the left side with his body, and faced the ball from the right, without even jumping, and headed the ball directly.
It was also at this moment that everyone suddenly realized that Eto'o had stopped suddenly, and it turned out that he was waiting for Ibrahimovic to rush up!
But, it's too late!
“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!”
'Chelsea scored!!!
"A header from Ibrahimovic, a very powerful header!"
'In the 64th minute, Chelsea broke the deadlock!'
"The goal came so suddenly, and it was a wonderful goal!"
'It was a quick counter-attack, Samuel Eto'o was very quick with the ball, he didn't lose to Thierry Henry, and more importantly, he was very calm and well-timed. ”
'We can see in slow motion that he seemed to have known that Ibrahimovic was going to follow, and then the cross was very beautiful, so to speak, Samuel Eto'o was the master of the whole goal!
After the goal, Ibrahimovic burst out of the six-yard box in ecstasy, sprinting all the way to the right, and the whole person excitedly picked up Eto'o at the waist.
The Cameroonian cheetah was also very excited, holding Ibrahimovic's face and shouting something over there.
This scene made the teammates who followed and caught up stunned, when did these two guys who didn't like each other have a close relationship like this?
Soon, they also woke up from their excitement, realized that they were too close to their rivals, and quickly separated, which caused all the teammates present to burst into laughter.
Gao Han also looked at it and laughed on the sidelines, there was nothing he could do about the two of them.
But he immediately gave the latest instructions to the players, signaling them to step up pressing in the midfield and chase after the victory to score another goal.
After opening the scoring, Chelsea's morale was high and they continued to use high-intensity pressing tactics, taking advantage of the chaos that followed Arsenal's conceded goal to attack the Gunners' goal.
As the team's goal-scorer and the main centre-forward, Ibrahimovic has been more active in the middle of the pitch.
Gao Han also realized his role, and immediately used a five-star confrontation card to bless him, allowing him to crush Campbell and Chloe Toure with his body almost easily in the frontcourt.
Even in the 67th minute of the game, Ronaldinho won the ball on the left and shook the defender to cut inside and pass the ball to the feet of Ibrahimovic.
The Swedish centre-forward, under the wrap of Campbell, Kolo Toure and Vieira, pressed the opponent with his strong body, and then relied on his excellent footwork to protect the ball and pass it back to Ronaldinho, who ran out of space.
The Brazilian midfielder, after receiving Gao Han's clear instructions, appeared more resolute, and directly fired a right-footed volley and hit a curling ball, which hung directly in the upper right corner of the goal, and goalkeeper Lehmann could not do anything.
Two to zero!
In just three minutes, Chelsea scored twice in quick succession against Arsenal.
This stunned the Gunners' players, as well as the fans in the stands and even Arsene Wenger in the dugout.
