Vieira, who had been sitting steadily, also stood up suddenly, clapped his hands fiercely in frustration, and then sat on the seat helplessly and leaned back. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He understands that he can't show his regrets too much in front of his teammates.

After all, the first half of the game was not over yet, and the battle was going to continue until 90 minutes.

Li Liang's free-kick was New York City's first shot on goal in the first half. Although hitting the woodwork does not count as a shot in the woodwork for the purposes of the technical statistics, it was undoubtedly the most dangerous shot of the first half for either side.

Vieira's idea was actually not guessed by Latanzio and Pérez. Before Li Liang was replaced, the physical fitness of most of the players in New York City was about to reach a bottleneck.

The few altercations with Chelsea just now quickly subsided, with Frank Lampard mediating in the middle; On the other hand, the excitement aroused by Vieira's speech at the beginning began to decline significantly due to the impact of physical fitness.

Patrick Vieira saw the gap in the link between the centre and back after Chelsea pressed on the attack, so he sent Li Liang to step up the attack.

At the same time, Villa was sent in order to tear apart Chelsea's defense and create more space for Li Liang to move.

All aspects were in line with Vieira's tactical concept, but it was a pity that Li Liang did not score this well-placed free kick.

But Vieira also understands that if the referee shows Pasalic a red card, he will actually achieve his goal.

All this, of course, is also clearly seen by Garder, Southgate, Mourinho and Yadirm.

Relatives and friends were equally devastated by the group. At this time, a big man in the front row of Lao Xu wearing Drogba's No. 11 Blue Army shirt, with a big beard and a red face with a drunken face, turned his head and stared at Lao Xu who was sighing loudly.

A few punk men dressed in headscarves and earrings next to him, who had obviously drunk a lot of alcohol, also turned their heads and "shined" at Lao Xu with their eyes!

Mu Zhaoge and the three of them, Xiao Yu and Xiao Li suddenly became nervous, these big men don't look good, could it be the legendary football hooligans?!

The bearded man suddenly stretched out his hand and said loudly: "What a pity! What a fantastic shot, number 37 is a good player, isn't he? ”

Lao Xu, who was also stunned, looked at the bearded man and his companions, and then at the bearded big hairy hands, and finally reacted, stretched out his hand and high-fived the bearded!

The bearded man and his companions expressed regret for No. 37's free kick, and at the same time asked No. 37's name, Lao Xu couldn't believe it!

But he still told the bearded man loudly that No. 37 was from China and was called Li Liang.

Amelia got up and beckoned his teammates to press on, but his voice trembled slightly.

Originally, in his imagination, after defusing No. 37's free kick shot, he was going to learn to yell a few times like No. 22 on the opposite side, and then humiliate No. 37 well.

Now he had completely dismissed that idea. He kicked the ball out of the way at an outrageous angle and flew straight off the sideline.

Mourinho pouted and said to Mendes: 'Two months ago when I was here [Chelsea Football Club sacked Mourinho for the second time on 17 December 2015], there was always a problem like this, and there was always an inexplicable fluctuation in the mentality of my players. ”

Zouka interjected: "Dad, I don't think the club did this to you like this, you brought them two titles last season!" ”

Mourinho patted his son and smiled: "That's the championship that came from everyone's dedication and hard work, my child."

There is no 'fairness' in professional football, wins and championships are the greatest fairness. ”

With less than five minutes to go until the end of the first half, the home fans found that the atmosphere had changed dramatically.

The Blues had already pressed past the half-time backline and were able to step back almost 20 metres thanks to the lively performances of Villa and Li Liang.

Under the command of Vieira, New York City, although it seems that there has been a significant decline in physical fitness, is resolutely shrinking in the middle and stabilizing the defense at the back.

It was Falcao who was the best header up front, but puzzling enough, he didn't get a header at the end of the half.

Rather than taking advantage of New York City's contraction to continue to launch onslaught for the rest of the day, Chelsea seemed to be very afraid of the attacking combination of Frank Lampard, Li Liang and Villa.

The two sides ended the first half in a back and forth that was not threatening.

Back in the home dressing room, Ives looked very ugly.

He'd studied the footage of the New York City and Manchester City reserves many times, as did his players, but Patrick Vieira's early substitution clearly disrupted his pre-game men.

Chelsea's performance throughout the first half was the same as the first half of the Premier League season: long periods of pointlessness and intermittent, inexplicable collective slumps.

Of course, Avis thinks that his subordinates can't be blamed for all of this.

He exclaimed, "Lift up your heads for me, boys!" They have replaced Villa, which shows that we have made them feel terrified!

We didn't score just because we were unlucky! Morris just told me that in the first half the ratio of time on the ball was 71:29, the ratio of shots to goal was 12:1, the ratio of shots on target was 6:0, and the situation was completely under our control.

You only need to score the first goal in the second half, and the goals that come in the back will keep coming! ”

When cheering up his subordinates, there was one thing he didn't say.

He himself understands that although he made arrangements in the pre-game preparations, he still underestimated this guy a little bit for No. 37, who had a wonderful performance and scored a goal in the last game.

The second half of the game began, because it was a friendly match, the two sides agreed before the game that there would be no limit on the number of substitutions, and both sides used the halftime break to make personnel adjustments.

Chelsea replaced Remy with Brazilian Robert F. Kennedy, left-back Baba with another Brazilian, Wallace Oliveira dos Santos (commonly known as Wallace), and centre-back Omeiro with American teenager Matt Mizga.

New York City replaced centre-back Hernandez with Luxembourger Maxime Xano, Sheldon with American Tony Taylor and right winger Balloch with Elora.

Chelsea made all the substitutions, all of which were made because of the need for tactical adjustments.

The changes in New York City's central defenders and strikers positions are entirely due to the fact that the two starters have done their best.

Seeing New York City replace right winger Balloch with fullback Ilora made Ives a little puzzled, could Vieira play a back 5 and continue to defend to the death?

The game began, and soon, the tactical intentions of the coaches of both sides were all presented in front of everyone.

Chelsea put Falcao and new youngster Kenedy up front, pulling Traore up front.

Another new Brazilian youngster, Rains Wallace, was originally playing at right-back, but he was clearly tasked with marking Villa, the biggest threat in the opposition line.

Another big central defender with a height of 191, Mizga, is in the premise of the position, and he specializes in taking care of Li Liang! This is also to avoid another accident with Pasalic, who has already been shown a yellow card.

Avies' change of tactics was very targeted, adjusting the original formation of 433 to 3412, and after replacing three young players from the reserve team, the tacit understanding of the players on the field has been greatly improved.

New York City's attacking line was immediately and extremely effective, and as soon as the second half began, three lines were successfully cut apart by Chelsea.

But Vieira's other trick, Avies, didn't think of it.

At half-time, at the suggestion of Latancio, Vieira also decided to change his formation.
