Chapter 224: The show is about to start again
Overall defense is not simply a name on paper, but needs to be reflected on the pitch.
Pacos Ferreira should have been on the flanks and Claude Makelele was supposed to be in the middle of the flank, but now that he and Quaresma have switched positions, they are testing Chelsea's overall defence.
Ferreira followed Quaresma, and Makelele went to the wing to continue to mark the small law?
Or is Ferreira taking over Jr. and Makelele concentrating on Quaresma?
It was a test of Chelsea's defensive tactics and chemistry.
Ferreira and Makelele did not hesitate, and at the same time did not leave their defensive position, since the opponent in front of them changed to their own defense area, then what was not said, just defend down.
Seeing this, the corners of Quaresma's mouth couldn't help but curl slightly.
Sure enough, that's what we want most.
In the face of Ferreira, Xiaofa knocked the ball horizontally to the feet of Quaresma without delay, and Quaresma faced Makelele, who defended himself on the oblique side, without respecting the old and loving the young at all, and went directly to the ball forward, eating the French veteran with speed.
Makelle had nothing to do in the face of such an unreasonable Quaresma.
He was just standing diagonally in front of him, just to prevent Quaresma from cutting inside and at the same time to prevent Quaresma from continuing to move forward, but such a mediocre defensive style was almost useless in front of Quaresma, the ultimate breakthrough.
Looking at Quaresma's gradually moving back, Makelele couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if he was three years younger, then he would definitely be able to stop Quaresma.
Old!
By this time, Quaresma had already smashed into the box from the ribs, and with Henry taking Terry with him, he only had to face Carvalho's one-man defence.
Looking at the embarrassed face of Carvalho, who was gradually approaching him, Quaresma wanted to shout to him: Senior, let me in... No, let me pass......
It's not that Quaresma is afraid of Carvalho's defence, the point is that he doesn't want to make too many moves in the box so as not to miss the fighter.
The center of gravity of the body is slightly tilted to the left while the right foot flicks the ball a little to the right, directly flashing the shooting space, Carvalho's center of gravity is not so fast to follow, Quaresma does not hesitate to get up and hit the goal, the ball is pushed by him to the bottom right corner of the goal, he deliberately hit a tricky angle.
It wasn't too far away, and at the same time it was a bit of a surprise, Quaresma thought it was a sure goal, and he even wanted to celebrate the goal.
But in the nick of time, Cech was possessed by the spirit of God and pounced far away, keeping Quaresma's shot out of the net.
Quaresma looked at Cech in disbelief, his face full of horror.
Why are you hanging up?
Is this still the same little transparency that I scored four goals in two games?
It's no wonder that Quaresma is a little unacceptable now, and in the previous two duels, Cech didn't make any effective saves against Quaresma.
originally knew that Cech was a super goalkeeper, but because he didn't defend himself, Quaresma inevitably felt that Cech was a bit vain.
But now, Quaresma knew, it was indeed the name of the Shadow Tree!
Terrible!
However, this goal is indeed a bit of a pity, and the exchange of positions with Xiaofa caught Makelele off guard, and there may not be such a good opportunity next time.
Knowing that Makelele can't defend himself in the ribs, then Ferreira may follow him to the ribs next time.
Although he may not be afraid of Ferreira, it is a waste of time to always entangle with him, right?
The game lasted almost 20 minutes and both sides had good chances, but they didn't take advantage of them, and the score remained unchanged.
Jose Mourinho was a bit on the bench and although a draw was acceptable, he would have preferred Chelsea to avenge the first-leg win against Arsenal at Highbury.
Arsene Wenger was just as nervous, you never know what would happen in the next second, and he was so scared of Arsenal being hit by Chelsea.
The flank confrontation between the two teams is still continuing, but because of the problem of ability, it has gradually divided in several points.
Robben and Ashley Cole have already played a real fire, Robben has to go over, Ashley Cole has to not let Robben pass, and vice versa, from normal confrontation to small actions, and then from small actions to direct shovels, if it weren't for the teammates to stop, the two would probably have staged a full martial arts on the field.
Quaresma and Ferreira also fought hard, Quaresma encountered the strongest defense, Ferreira also encountered the strongest attack, the two chess opponents, use all their strength, the confrontation is called a fierce one.
However, after all, it was the attacking side that took the initiative, and after a few sharp breakthroughs, Ferreira gradually struggled to defend a little, especially Quaresma changed his breakthrough routine and broke through more through explosiveness and change of direction, which made Ferreira's defensive awareness largely useless.
In the 26th minute of the first half, Quaresma got Xiaofa's pass again, and Ashley Cole behind him had already come up, but Robben also followed Ashley Cole inch by inch, and the two pulled each other, as if the main room was fighting the junior, which was called a fierce one.
Quaresma really didn't dare to pass the ball to Ashley Cole, so he had to continue to break through himself.
Having pedaled a few bikes without purpose, Quaresma didn't have the luxury of shaking Ferreira off with such an unnutritious movement, he was just thinking through this time.
The left foot suddenly moved the ball to the left a little, and the center of gravity of the body suddenly tilted to the left, Quaresma's action made Ferreira have to move the center of gravity with it, no way, if he didn't keep up, even a feint Quaresma could immediately become a real action, and he broke through.
But in the next second, Quaresma suddenly stopped, pulled the ball back with his right foot, and controlled the ball at his feet again.
If he had been replaced by a normal defensive player, Quaresma could have broken through directly from the right side, but Ferreira's strong defensive strength allowed him to control his body's center of gravity, and the electric light and fire time blocked in front of Quaresma.
It's just that Quaresma didn't intend to break through so easily, he continued to poke the ball forward with his right foot, and took advantage of Ferreira's unstable footing to poke the ball from the right side, but his body was like a nimble swimming fish, bypassing Ferreira's right side and dodging.
The ball is divided!
Quaresma received a ball after a series of feints, completely making Ferreira lose his judgment and the possibility of blocking Quaresma.
The Arsenal fans in the stands let out a furious cheer!
Quaresma's show is about to start again!
