At the critical moment, Terry arrived in time and rubbed the ball with one foot.

However, Bernd's shot was powerful and the distance was so short that Terry had to change the direction of the ball.

"Dang!"

The ball hit the post with a crisp and loud sound.

Cudicini, who reacted, hurriedly hugged the ball in his arms.

Bernd was so angry that he stomped his foot repeatedly.

It's not that he's explosive and irritable, it's that he knows the meaning of the ball.

If this goal is scored, Aachen will be able to take the lead, and the possibility of this comeback will be greatly improved!

It's just that such a good opportunity is in front of him, but he misses it!

As much as Bernd regrets and hates it, the Chelsea players are so happy.

Cudicini swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva and looked at Terry gratefully.

The latter didn't notice his gaze, and he took a few rough breaths.

The game has just begun, and he naturally won't get tired.

It's due to nervousness!

Desailly didn't start and he was the captain of the Chelsea pitch.

The captain's armband on his arm really put a lot of pressure on Terry.

But Terry was Terry after all, and he was nervous for a moment before he regained his composure.

Off the pitch, John Terry is a total rotten guy, but on the football pitch he is the captain of Chelsea!

Terry calmed down, and Ranieri was still a little stunned.

"Defend, strengthen the defense!" Ranieri hurriedly called Terry over.

Instead of seeing Trillo's skeptical and disdainful eyes, Ranieri looked at his bench and fixed his eyes on the two players.

Geremi, a jack-of-all-trades player, can play in central midfield, but is better at centre-back.

After two glances at Geremi, Ranieri was still a little uneasy.

Geremi's experience is strong, but his level is relatively low.

Under the onslaught of Aachen, he may not be able to hold on.

Ranieri then looked at Desailly.

The current Chelsea captain was also the main centre-back for France's World Cup triumph in '98.

His strength is undoubted, and his experience is even richer, but the only flaw is that he is too old.

Ranieri was still there, but Terry couldn't help it.

"Coach, it's only been five minutes since the game started!" Terry exclaimed.

If you change people at such a time, isn't it clear that you have no confidence?

If the manager has this attitude, what will the players think? What would the Aachen guys think?

Ranieri also woke up suddenly.

He is also an experienced veteran, but when he is nervous, he often panics and makes moves that do not go through his brain.

But once he calmed down, Ranieri put on an impartial poker face again, seemed to casually admonish Terry, and sat back in his place in a hurry.

Seeing that the manager didn't seem to care, the players were surprised and at the same time, they were not so panicked.

Even Terry couldn't help but have a little bit of a change in his opinion of Ranieri.

After all, he was also promoted by Ranieri from the academy, and Ranieri can even be said to have a good understanding of him.

What's more, Ranieri's tactical level is quite high, at least a lot of the time that Terry admires.

If it weren't for the fact that the two sides were really different, he wouldn't have been so suspicious.

After the restart, it was clear that the Chelsea players were in a lot of spirits.

Aachen's swift offensive was clearly not looking like he wanted to wait for a defeat.

And what to do next, the manager has already given instructions.

Defend!

Aachen suddenly felt the pressure.

Although relying on a momentum, Aachen can still suppress Chelsea, but as the saying goes, it will decline and exhaust again.

It won't be long before Aachen's momentum dissipates and the game won't be good.

Off the pitch, Hag looked at Chelsea's defensive line-up and couldn't help but admire Ranieri.

Seriously, the quality of the players in the Chelsea defence is not very strong.

The only players who really made Aachen rush to the problem were Makelele and Terry.

As for Frank Lampard, he will be more responsible for the attacking side.

In addition, the other players of Chelsea are not very strong.

However, under Ranieri's tactical pinching, Chelsea obviously did not put an iron bucket formation, but the space left for Aachen to attack was very small, so small that it was outrageous!

Naturally, Aachen also has a solution to this.

Hahe looked at Zhuo Cunzhi's position.

…………

"How many free kicks have you taken?" Seeing Zhuo Cunzhi standing at the penalty spot again, Ranieri couldn't help but ask.

"The fourth, right?" The assistant coach next to him replied unconfirmed.

Ranieri looked at the location of the chronograph board, which read 21:43.

After a moment of confusion, Ranieri finally came to his senses.

"Free kick tactics?" Ranieri muttered quietly, but kept shaking his head in his heart.

It's not that he thinks Aachen's tactics are too stupid, and he can't accept them for a while.

After all, free kicks are too unstable.

Even a recognized free-kick master like Beckham is estimated to score five or six direct free-kicks in a season.

It is precisely because of this uncertainty that strong teams have an attitude of "it's good if you have it, and you can play if you don't" when it comes to things like free kicks.

For the free kick master, everyone actually doesn't pay that much attention.

As a result, free kicks are not highly valued in the player's technique.

Beckham, who is known for his free kicks and handsomeness, has also been hacked in football.

Chicken!

This is the common perception of free kicks in football.

Kick this chicken-like tactic as the main tactic?

Impossible, there is no such thing as playing football!

Ranieri shook his head in his heart, but he didn't know what to do.

Aachen has a lot of players who have broken through and are now desperate to get free-kicks.

Chelsea were able to keep them out of the threat zone, but they couldn't stop Zhuo from taking a free-kick through the defence.

For a while, Ranieri, who had never encountered such tactics, didn't know what to do!

'Chelsea's dynamic defence, Aachen is very difficult to break through. Didier Deschamps explained to his players, "Then Aachen came up with a trick. ”

"Is it a free kick?" Roten replied dismissively.

'From a free-kick, the Chelsea defenders have to stand and their defence goes from dynamic to static!' Deschamps said solemnly.

With that, Deschamps closed his eyes and immersed himself in his own world.

"There is such a tactical ......"

"That Chinese, his free kicks are no worse than that Brazilian." Jiuli suddenly answered.

Several people in the locker room nodded involuntarily.

While Deschamps was amazed, he couldn't help but start thinking.

What should Monaco do if they encounter this tactic?
