80 fierce battle Blues 1
The match was only a semi-final, but it also attracted a lot of attention from celebrities, and many celebrities from both teams were in attendance.
William. Carlton no longer talks about etiquette, and in addition to inviting celebrities to watch the game, he also invited potential buyer Steve. Parish, along with the coaches and the families of the players, were there to watch the game.
But he and Steve. Parish, Wayne. Collins: The boxes they stay in are different.
The game is about to start, the short reception before the game is over, everyone has come to the stands outside the box to watch the game, there is also a live TV signal in the box, but how can there be a cool feeling to watch outside.
Steve. Parrish and Wayne sat together, he is a local businessman in Croydon, a bit of capital, and he is also a Crystal Palace fan, not only Wayne but also other politicians who are involved in him, but it is not a matter of a day or two that he and Wayne have known each other, and it was only later that Wensheng became the head coach, and Wayne remembered to encourage this to be the pick-up man.
Parish is interested in taking over Crystal Palace, but he knows that playing football in modern society is a money-burning game, and he may not be able to do it himself, so he is now trying to find a way to form a consortium with other local businessmen to buy Crystal Palace.
Vane was undoubtedly helpful in this, becoming the legal counsel of the consortium and personally participating in the acquisition, and Carlton became more and more respectful to Vane.
"What do you think we have a chance in this game?!" Parish, like many Crystal Palace fans now, is very fond of Wensheng, but now their opponent is Chelsea, so after kick-off, Parish can't help but want to ask the opinions of those around him, as if he can feel a lot more at ease.
Speaking of worrying about Wayne's worries more than Parish, he is not most concerned about how Crystal Palace is doing, but about his nephew, and he hopes that Wensheng will have smooth sailing, and this game is a good opportunity to make a name for himself.
But in front of Parish, Vane didn't want to look panicked, and he said with a calm smile on his face: "Don't forget that Danny has brought us so many surprises this season, he is a wonder boy!" ”
Before Wayne could finish speaking, Chelsea caused a dangerous situation in front of goal.
Just a few seconds into the game, Chelsea attacked up front, with Pacos Ferreira providing the assist and his cross was denied by the nearby defending Shears, and Chelsea were awarded a corner.
Deco's corner kick was taken, Crystal Palace's side was not tight, and it was hit by Alex, and the ball flew out against the poster, so close that Speroni didn't even react.
"Focus!" Wen Sheng yelled vigorously on the sidelines, and the players seemed to be a little inactive at the beginning.
Carlo Ancelotti is a coach who is very good at playing the knockout rounds, and two Champions League trophies are no joke.
However, he failed to capitalise on the inexperience of the Palace players who could have been nervous in the opening minute, and after the opening minute of the attack, Chelsea played cautiously and sent the ball back without a chance.
And the defense of Crystal Palace's side is not covered, especially the interception in the midfield.
Klein and Shills have a heavier defensive task today than in normal games, while in midfield, Wen Sheng has adopted a more aggressive defensive approach, and his tactical arrangement for Kante is specifically for him to mark Deco, the brain of Chelsea midfield.
Derry, on the other hand, was tasked with sweeping around the edge of the box, keeping an eye out for Frank Lampard's forward attacks, helping to defend Drogba in the box and assisting with Chelsea's wide players in the cut-outs.
Ndiaye's task is similarly similar, everyone is heavy.
Catching a snake has to catch seven inches, Chelsea's tactical style of play is not to limit Deco and everything will be fine, but at least Deco's role is very important, and it is of great significance to limit his attack and defense against Chelsea.
And the current Deco state is not as good as before, because of injuries and age factors, he is not too used under Ancelotti, but today Ancelotti does not have so many options, Ballack has just recovered from injury, Ancelotti does not dare to take risks.
Crystal Palace have been tough in midfield and it has to be said that N'Golo Kante's marking is really crucial, Deco is now less able to get out of place, harassed by N'Golo Kante, Chelsea's midfield is not moving fast enough.
Although the team quickly shook off the shadow of fear in the first few minutes, Wen Sheng still yelled on the sidelines, and Carlo Ancelotti was much quieter on the other side.
In the eighth minute, Crystal Palace also had a shot on goal.
Ndiaye tackled Malouda's dribble in midfield and fed the ball to Zaha in close proximity.
Although Zaha is young, he is full of fighting spirit, and he is very bold, this game Wensheng gives him a high degree of freedom, and he also hopes that he will suppress Ferreira and play the attack of Crystal Palace from this side, so after Zaha got the ball, he was not in a hurry to pass the ball, and in the face of Mikel who was forced up, Zaha calmly threw Mikel away with a crotch.
Riding his horse wild, Zaha pressed on the ball and Vardy quickly moved to that side and Scannell moved down the middle.
If it is in the Championship game, it is normal for Crystal Palace's midfielders to move forward in this situation, but this one is different, N'Golo Kante is not so much in the front as to post Deco in the defense, even if Crystal Palace's attack cannot be played, it will not let the opponent seize the opportunity to counterattack.
A good Zaha is also really good, dribbling past Mikel and all the way to the penalty area, Ferreira is relatively solid defensively, has been retreating, he is well aware of his disadvantages.
But he was always passive on the defensive side, and a few deft turns from Zaha left him a little dizzy, but his team-mate John Terry blocked the way down the middle.
After Zaha shook a few times, he directly used the speed to overtake Ferreira and Mikel, who was back to the defense, cut inside and inverted the triangle pass in front of the goal.
Vardy scrambled to shoot, but the ball was jammed by Alex and the shot had no speed and Cech got it easily.
The stadium was met with applause from Crystal Palace fans, who applauded Zaha's performance.
Wen Sheng also applauded on the sidelines as a sign of encouragement.
"Yes, that's it! That's it! ”
A team like Chelsea is no better than the underdogs in the Championship, you can't let them control the ball comfortably and keep the attack in their own half, which is a very dangerous thing to do, and it is too much of a test of Crystal Palace's defensive quality.
Wen Sheng has a clear understanding of this, and there is no problem with his defensive tactical thinking, but the player's ability is a problem, and if he puts Lawrence or McCarthy under too much pressure, he will definitely collapse.
So the tactical strategy he developed in this game is different from that in the league, and it is very targeted.
The first is to adopt a more aggressive midfield defensive strategy, strangle Deco, and the second is to play the attacking characteristics, Crystal Palace can still have, such as Scannell's speed, Zaha's excellent dribbling ability, to create pressure on the opponent's defense, so that they can not press too much, so as to relieve the pressure in the defence.
Ancelotti is also very well prepared for this game, of course, his fullness can only be regarded as a child in front of Wen Sheng, because of the strength and weakness, he cannot know the opponent's players like Wen Sheng.
Wen Sheng did not adopt the usual bus defense at all, so Ancelotti's side suffered from frustration at every turn, except for the threat of a corner kick in the opening minute, and it was difficult to pose too much real threat to Crystal Palace.
Looking at Wen Sheng, who was passionately commanding on the sidelines, Ancelotti couldn't help but sigh that this guy is really powerful, and he has found that it is difficult for his team to play that kind of smooth attack.
"Looks like it's fucking hard to deal with!"
Crystal Palace fans were also enthusiastic from the stands, cheering loudly for the players on the pitch.
In fact, Crystal Palace fans don't know that this is a lot of bad luck, they didn't expect their team to play so well in the opening 20 minutes, although Chelsea still occupies the initiative, but it does not bring enough threat to Speroni, this cowhide can blow for days.
