Gao Shunyao's retreat and advance made Chelsea's defense finally collapse in front of him. Although the Chelsea players worked hard for 30 minutes and put a lot of effort into setting up the defence, it was still ineffective at this moment. Standing in the ribs of the penalty area, Gao Shunyao got the football, and Chelsea's defense line was suddenly threatened.
This situation came as a bit of a surprise to the Chelsea players. Their defence, which was originally very good, was leaked thanks to Gao Shunyao's efforts, which made it hard for the Chelsea players to believe. It's just that at this time, they don't have the heart to regret whose responsibility it is, and Gao Shunyao's insertion can be said to be too timely. He rushed up at this time, just stuck the position of the ribs of the penalty area, which can be said to provide the greatest help to his teammates.
Gao Shunyao's body is very strong, and after he got the ball inside, he blindly protected the ball, and it was difficult for Chelsea to grab it in a hurry. In front of him, Perisic had bypassed the Chelsea defence and headed into the box. Gao Shunyao got the ball in the ribs of the penalty area, and a possible connection was formed between the two of them. A high striker with the ball in the box and a winger cutting inside to shoot is so dangerous that the Chelsea players don't have time to think about anything other than to keep Perisic at bay.
John Terry and Ivan rushed towards Perisic as soon as possible, and they kept Perisic behind him very well, otherwise he would have had a chance to catch the ball. However, Gao Shunyao's pass did not go to Perisic, on the contrary, his corner kick was crossed along the line of the penalty area to the edge of the penalty area. And there, Mandzukic was already plugged in.
Attack on Wolfsburg. Originally, it was not done by Gao Shunyao and Perisic, when they were working together on the wing. Mandzukic, who was originally close to the right side, also moved closer at this time. When Gao Shunyao got stuck in the ribs of the penalty area, controlled the ball, and formed a fulcrum in the front, while Perisic bypassed the back line and pressed the opponent's defenders, making the Chelsea backline rumor, he had quietly covered it and hit the front of the penalty area at this time.
As an excellent shooter. Mandzukic is clearly talented. He doesn't have too delicate skills and no outstanding sense of organization, but as a striker, his ability to grab points and outflank is absolutely excellent, and the hunter's mentality is incomparable. The grappling on the left flank drew most of Chelsea's attention at this time. His silent raid turned out to be the deadliest knife.
Gao Shunyao's attack is a cover, he just wants to use the ball as a shaft, and Perisic's attack is also a cover. His aim was to hold down the opposing defense. And under their joint efforts, Mandzukic was no longer a defender in his position, and when he received a pass from Gao Shunyao. He can even take another step forward with the ball, inside the box. Mandzukic adjusted his pace and looked at Terry, who was too late to make up for the position. He fired a low shot and kicked the ball out, sending it straight to the bottom left corner of the goal.
In the forbidden area, any leakage is extremely dangerous. And something like this that directly misses the opponent's striker is an extremely terrible mistake. Chelsea's defence would never have had such a problem, but they were attracted too much attention by Gao Shunyao's rampage, ignoring Mandzukic's role and making an unforgivable mistake.
With such a shot, Mandzukic will never have a problem. The ball flew into the goal on the turf without any suspense, leaving the flying Petr Cech to the ground and speechless for a moment. After 30 minutes, Wolfsburg still took the lead in the scoring, and in this game, it was they who took the lead
On the field, the Wolfsburg players cheered and ran together, and Gao Shunyao was the first to rush up and hug Mandzukic to celebrate Wolfsburg's goal.
This is the goal he contributed the most, and it can even be said that it is the result of his conception.
For Chelsea's tight defense, the possibility of success in the fight for the ball is extremely small, and in front of Mourinho, who wants to rely on his individual ability to break through, he has been racking his brains in the past few years, and the skills of the players at Wolfsburg are not enough to see. In addition to these things, if you want to break through the opponent's defense, you can only rely on long-range shots, set-pieces or cooperation, and between the three, Gao Shunyao still chose to cooperate.
The opponent's goalkeeper is a very good player after all. Moreover, the entire Premier League is very keen on long-range shooting, and they have a better defensive strategy for long-range shooting, which also makes Gao Shunyao still a little worried about trying to score from a distance. At the same time, the other team's coach is also a very good coach, Mourinho is not Wenger, nor is he as unreliable as Bayern last season, his team has never been considered a team that is unfavorable for defending set-pieces, in the face of such a team, if you want to play set-pieces, it is inevitable that there is still too much gambling, and Gao Shunyao also thinks that there is not much chance.
Comparatively speaking, from the ground, it looks like the chances are still greater. And Wolfsburg's coordination is not so good, unable to open the opponent's tight defensive line, then he relies on repeated running support to disrupt the opponent's defense, which is the best way.
And running back and forth, backing and forth, and using the change of their position to make the opponent's defense line porous For dense defense, this is not a particularly unusual tactic, and many teams face the opponent's dense defense, playing this set. But this time Gao Shunyao used such tactics, but the results were not bad, compared to some teams with better skills, and even greater results.
The reason for this is also related to his characteristics. As a high school striker, Ko Shun Yao has a lot of advantages when playing on the pitch, he is big enough, he has enough impact, which is an impact on the opponent's defence, when he runs back and forth, the Chelsea defence will involve more energy, compared to the small player, he has a natural advantage in this regard.
And he can hold the ball up front, can form a fulcrum, let his teammates use his point as a support for running, which is also very important, after he got the ball, it was Perisic's running that continued to tear the opponent's direction, making Chelsea qualify, if he didn't have the cooperation of his teammates, Wolfsburg's tearing would not have gone so smoothly.
In addition, he has a good sense and can find opportunities for his team-mates, which is also a big advantage for him, and the practice of not passing the ball to Perisic but to Mandzukic in the last minute has led to Wolfsburg scoring directly and arguably a very important assist.
And the most important thing is that he is willing to have physical strength, he is not too tired to run back and forth, from the midfield to the penalty area, he can always run up and down to support his teammates, such energy, physical strength and mentality at the expense of marrying others, which is also not possessed by ordinary players. At that time, Ibrahimovic couldn't integrate tactics no matter how he played at Barcelona, which is a clear example of how to be a useful person for the team, ability alone is not enough, and mentality is also very important.
With a good body, good physical strength, ability to hold the ball, ability to pass the ball, coupled with a good attitude and the tacit cooperation of his teammates, Gao Shunyao made full use of all favorable conditions and tried to create opportunities. Lacking in any of these areas, this attack will come to an abrupt halt in front of Chelsea's defence. Thankfully, Wolfsburg managed to tear apart their opponent's defense. His approach worked, and Wolfsburg seized the opportunity and managed to turn the score to 10.
Chelsea's defence is good, but Wolfsburg's attack is also good.
At Chelsea's home turf, Chelsea were still behind after 30 minutes. Wolfsburg scored a goal and their efforts were not in vain, and in this game, they had already taken the lead.
This goal made Wolfsburg all happy. Chelsea have come up with bus tactics to deal with them, but they haven't been able to hold on, which is enough to make the Wolvesburg players happy.
Although there is not much goal, but in this game, the meaning is very important: the whole game has been played by both sides of the game, the offensive power of both sides has been seriously insufficient, Wolfsburg's attack has been repeatedly blocked, Chelsea's counterattack has never been able to play, in such a game, a goal can often determine the final outcome of the game, and Wolfsburg took the lead in scoring, which also allowed them to see the dawn of victory.
Counter-attacking is a great tactic, but because it is often accompanied by a low scoreline, the margin for error is also very low, and a single mistake can lead to a victory. Chelsea have opted for this tactic and now that they have conceded the first goal, they will have to pay for it for the rest of the game.
Looking at the sidelines of the pitch, Chelsea's head coach Jose Mourinho is already frowning at this time. Chelsea were clearly not expecting this goal. His expression made the Wolfsburg players quite happy: it seems that Chelsea does not have any special tactics ready to turn the tables, and Wolfsburg has great hopes for this game. And if this one can really be won smoothly, then Wolfsburg is also a big step forward from the top four.
It's just that whether the victory will really come so easily, and the 30-minute goal can decide the outcome of the game, Wolfsburg is still a little skeptical. And it quickly turned out that their fears were correct.
Chelsea are not that easy to beat, this is their home turf after all, and their quality should not be underestimated. To be continued
