'Chelsea's starting line-up surprised everyone, with Oscar and Eden Hazard on the bench and Jose Mourinho using a back three in midfield...... ' surprised Herve.
Also surprised was Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp, who was stunned when he got Chelsea's starting line-up, which was very different from his prediction of Chelsea's starting line-up, especially Oscar and Eden Hazard, who were all on the bench, which was too unexpected.
Immediately, Klopp judged Chelsea's tactical intent in this game: to defend and counterattack!
They want to avoid conceding goals, even if it's 0-0, which Mourinho is willing to accept.
Klopp was in thought, and the opponent's starting lineup caught him off guard.
Mourinho glanced at Borussia Dortmund's dugout and smiled: Surprised?
……
Players from both sides line up before shaking hands.
Jiang Chenxi heard Aubameyang have some words.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Chenxi asked in a low voice.
Aubameyang didn't answer, looking pious and serious.
Subsequently, when the two sides lined up to shake hands, Aubameyang was in front of Jiang Chenxi, Jiang Chenxi saw him and Torres shaking hands, and said a lot: Lala Da Da Ma Mi Horn Coax Niku Ka Ya Butterfly......
Torres looked confused and didn't understand, but the Spanish international was polite, smiling and saying 'thank you' in English.
Jiang Chenxi had a strange expression, and then shook hands with Torres and completed the process of shaking hands.
Chelsea guessed the coin and were given the right to pick the edge, with Borussia Dortmund kicking off first.
Jiang Chenxi stepped on the football and looked at his partner, "Pierre, what did you just say to Torres?" ”
"Spells." Aubameyang said seriously, "Now, I've ruined that guy's good fortune. ”
Jiang Chenxi's expression was stunned.
Everyone has also talked about Torres being a 'winner in life' and 'bringing his own lucky halo', but most of them are used as chats, and no one takes them too seriously, but I didn't expect that the upright Aubameyang would ......
"Good work." Jiang Chenxi patted Aubameyang on the shoulder, what could he say? Aubameyang is very serious, very strange.
……
Klopp made a gesture to his players: don't be affected by the change of the opponent's starting lineup, according to the pre-match arrangement, start the attack!
Whatever Mourinho wants to do, Dortmund will give Chelsea a hammer first.
From the very beginning of the game, Dortmund took the initiative.
Chelsea's tactics were clear, they were able to shrink their defence as soon as they came up, first solidifying the back and then trying to counter-attack, and for them, the priority today was not to score, not to concede a goal.
Borussia Dortmund's side strictly followed the manager's tactical instructions to open the game, making the most of their kick-off advantage, keeping the ball firmly at their feet and looking for opportunities to tear apart Chelsea's defence.
The game went on for more than ten minutes, and Chelsea defended almost all of them, and Dortmund once formed a half-court siege on Chelsea, but Chelsea's defense was very successful, and Dortmund did not find a good way to attack for a while.
Chelsea had a chance to counter-attack, but their pass was cut off by Borussia Dortmund, and Chelsea immediately recoiled and did not hesitate to switch from counter-attacking to defensiveness.
Jurgen Klopp has been watching from the sidelines, watching Chelsea's tactics today.
Chelsea's tactics were very cautious.
First of all, there is no unnecessary dribbling and passing, it is directly a kick, and their attack is mostly a quick cross, and an attack is completed in three seconds. Then there was a quick loss of the ball, giving up the ball, going on the defensive, very decisive.
In addition, Chelsea mostly use attacking tactics of wide crosses, however, they have not abandoned the middle, but even in the ground attack, the passing coordination is very concise, no possession, no cumbersome short passes, no unnecessary to get rid of the ball, no horizontal and return passes. All the passing cooperation is forward, and one kick is the biggest feature. Even if you sacrifice the success rate of the pass, you must ensure the speed of the ball. This is the speed of the absolute pursuit of counterattacks.
Last but not least, once there is a passing error, Chelsea immediately start pressing forward or quickly returning, and once Dortmund can't form a fast attack within a few seconds, what they are waiting for is a positional battle after Chelsea has returned to defend all the way.
And the tactical discipline and concentration of the Chelsea players in this quick return to defence are surprising.
The whole of Chelsea is like a machine running at high speed.
'Chelsea's defence was very resilient, they took the initiative to give possession to Borussia Dortmund and defended with all their might. Lineker said, "Contrary to the football philosophy of Pep Guardiola and Cruyff, Mourinho emphasises this kind of counter-attack by giving up possession, giving possession to the opponent, looking for mistakes behind the opponent's attack.
"This kind of tactic may be ugly, but it will work well." 'Playing at home to Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool, away to Manchester City, Chelsea played like that, five of the six goals against Arsenal came on the counter-attack. ”
'Borussia Dortmund are in trouble, Chelsea are the team that have conceded the most goals in the Premier League this season and it will not be easy to break down their defence. Jiang Chenxi has not yet had a chance to shoot after the start of the game. He Wei said, "This game is a test for Jiang Chenxi, he may get few shooting opportunities, this is a test of his scoring efficiency." ”
With 22 minutes into the game, the TV screen shows real-time stats, Dortmund have 65 per cent possession and Chelsea only 35 per cent, which is very abnormal data, you know, Dortmund is actually not a team known for possession.
The current number of shots on goal between the two sides, Dortmund 2, one is a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, one is Jiang Chenxi taking the lead at the top of the penalty area, Mkhitaryan's volley, the football flies high into the stands, Chelsea's defense of Jiang Chenxi is effective, he does not get more support.
In addition, Chelsea had 0 shots on goal!
The home team has not yet had a shot on goal.
The camera shows a fan yawning in the stands at Stamford Bridge.
"It's a bit boring to play like this." Eric. Lange sarcastically pointed the finger at the home side Chelsea: "Jose Mourinho's side played so conservatively at home, they were fighting for a 0-0 goal from the start of the game? ”
The Italian commentator was interested, "This is the top tactical duel of the real top coach, Mourinho and Klopp's fighting style, starting from the arrangement of the starting lineup, the game played for more than 20 minutes, and now it seems that Mourinho's team is a little passive, but Mourinho is slightly better, and Dortmund can't find a way to attack." ”
The camera gives Mourinho a close-up of the Portuguese head coach sitting in the dugout, looking down to record something in his notebook.
At this time, Dortmund coach Klopp walked to the sidelines, took advantage of a dead ball opportunity, put his arm around Jiang Chenxi's shoulders and whispered.
Set a small goal first, such as 1 second to remember: Book Keju mobile version reading website:
