305. Ancelotti's adjustment
2-0, Liverpool lead Chelsea 2-0 on the road.
"Andrey! Andre! Andrea Goal!" Inside Stamford Bridge, Liverpool fans cheered excitedly and roared wildly.
At this time, the Chelsea players gathered around and surrounded the referee Howard in the middle. Chelsea captain John Terry rushed over and roared: "Mr. referee, it's offside, that damn Spaniard is offside, it should be an offside goal." ”
Howard stared blankly at Terry's frantic roar, waiting for Lampard to finish his roar before he said: "Yes, Fernando is offside." But he didn't get involved in the offense, which didn't break the rules. ”
"But...... You should have ruled him offside because he had run and he interfered with our judgment of the ball, he had an impact on the outcome of the ball, it was a violation and the ball was not counted. Nearby, Chelsea's iron man Frank Lampard said.
"Whether there is a violation or not, I know very well, you don't need to explain, hurry up and prepare, the game will continue." Referee Howard ignored the Chelsea players, and immediately waved his hand to interrupt the Chelsea players, signaling the Chelsea players to hurry up and prepare in midfield.
The Chelsea players wanted to say something, but the referee Howard opened his teeth and claws, which made the Chelsea players very unhappy, but the Chelsea players had no other way but to watch Howard leave.
The reaction of the Chelsea fans was also very violent, they cursed the referee of the game frantically, cursing Howard as a black whistle, and the whole Stamford Bridge stadium was now booed.
Chelsea manager Carlo 61 Ancelotti also reacted fiercely on the sidelines, baring his teeth and claws on the sidelines, frantically bombarding the fourth official. He was very unhappy with the decision, it should be an offside.
However, no matter how unhappy the Chelsea people were, the result was already in place and it was the goal that went in. It worked, and now Chelsea are 2-0 down.
The Chelsea themselves have to think about it, and if they continue to make such a fuss, it will be their own time to be delayed. Every second of time is very precious for Chelsea people now, so at this time, Chelsea people have to swallow this breath by themselves.
As the game resumed, Chelsea launched an onslaught and Frank Lampard sent the ball up front and Didier Drogba jumped high to head it to Frenchman Nicolas Anelka. After receiving the ball, Anelka tried to break through, but without success, he passed the ball to Malouda on the wing.
Malouda, who was on the wing, pretended to go down the pitch but suddenly passed the ball back to Frank Lampard who was following up. Frank Lampard immediately linked up with Nicolas Anelka twice on the edge of the box, before Lampard volleyed straight from a step into the box.
The football flew like a cannonball into the Liverpool goal, but unfortunately the ball was slightly off, and the ball flew off the bottom line and smashed the billboard.
Now the players of the Liverpool team are not in a hurry at all, Reina slowly and leisurely drove the football out in the back, the football fell to the head of Fernando 61 Torres, and Maxi 61 Rodriguez on the wing received the football, and immediately passed the ball back, and he cut forward instead.
The Chelsea defenders thought that Qiu Ze would pass the football to Maxi 61 Rodriguez in front of him, so he quickly followed Maxi 61 Rodriguez, who knew that Qiu Ze directly tilted the football 45 degrees into the Chelsea team.
Arshavin at the back point rushed up at high speed and jumped to the top, but unfortunately he didn't hit the football, and the football flew directly out of the sideline.
Chelsea went on the attack immediately, this time with Didier Drogbal pulling inside and Nicolas Anelka slotting into the Liverpool box. The football was not passed into the penalty area, but to the line of the big penalty area, and Drogba who came out of his pocket shot angrily against the football, and the football was high above the crossbar.
This immediately caused a sigh from the Chelsea fans, what a chance. During this time, Chelsea still had a lot of offensive opportunities and were very threatening, but they just couldn't score goals, which made Chelsea fans anxious.
And at this time, Howard, the referee of the game, blew the whistle for the end of the first half. At the end of the first half, Chelsea trailed Liverpool 2-0 at home, leaving Chelsea fans gloomy and depressed.
Of course, the Chelsea players were in a worse mood and how good they said before the game that the win must be theirs. That's good, it's only half a game, and they're 0-2 down, what does that look like?
The Chelsea players were very unhappy, panicked, and were about to suffocate internal injuries. Of course, Chelsea's head coach Carlo 61 Ancelotti was of course even more angry, he really didn't expect the game to turn out like this, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
At half-time, Chelsea manager Carlo Carlo 61 Ancelotti was furious and harshly criticised his Chelsea players, who he felt were too careless defensively.
The second goal conceded in particular illustrates that if the Chelsea players were focused, would they make such a low-level mistake? Carlo 61 Carlo Ancelotti emphasized defensiveness several times before the game. When it comes to this game, you have to start with defense, and it's over, and the Chelsea players didn't listen to it, so it's a loss.
Carlo Carlo 61 Carlo Ancelotti believes that this is the seventh consecutive win of the season has made the Chelsea players a little fluttering, and they think they are really good to the sky, and no one is their opponent. Therefore, in this game, the Liverpool team was not taken into account and the opponent was underestimated, which was the result.
Here Carlo 61 Ancelotti has to admire Benitez again, the same seven consecutive wins, Weishenme Liverpool team can be down-to-earth, not fluttering? Carlo 61 Ancelotti thought of the Champions League in midweek, Liverpool's defeat came too timely, which poured cold water on the players of the Liverpool team, and then they sobered up, no wonder the Liverpool players were so desperate today.
In the dressing room, Carlo 61 Carlo Ancelotti counted down the Chelsea players and then pointed out their problems, hoping that the Chelsea players would be able to rectify all this in the second half. And at this time, Carlo 61 Ancelotti also made adjustments.
Carlo 61 Ancelotti clearly felt that the Chelsea team's defense in the midfield was very weak in the first half, and this diamond-shaped midfield gave too much space for Liverpool's players, especially the opponent's No. 10 Qiu Ze, so that this guy had too much room to move in the midfield.
Carlo 61 Ancelotti wants to limit the guy's play so they can have more energy to attack. So, at this time, Carlo 61 Ancelotti changed the formation to a parallel position of 442.
Moreover, Carlo 61 Ancelotti also deliberately reminded Chelsea's midfielders, and when defending, this formation is better to form a four-three-one-two, with Essien and Malouda moving closer to the middle and retreating en masse, while Frank Lampard is in front of the three, forming another barrier.
Of course, it would be okay for this formation to become a 4132, so that Essien can become a free man in the midfield and a scavenger in front of the back line.
It can be seen that Carlo 61 Ancelotti has done a lot of work on defense, and he hopes that the team can start from defense and solve the opponent. At the same time, Carlo 61 Ancelotti himself has this confidence, and he is confident of winning against Liverpool.
On the Liverpool side, Benitez was very satisfied with the performance of the players in the first half, and he especially praised Qiu Ze, who performed very well in the first half, scoring a goal and an assist, helping the team achieve the current advantage.
Also, Gareth 61 Bale, Arshavin, Fernando 61 Torres and others, on the whole, the entire Liverpool team performed well in the first half of the game, and they all played very well. However, Benitez did mention that in the first half, Liverpool gave Chelsea too many chances.
Yes, Chelsea had a lot of chances in the first half, if it weren't for the Chelsea people's luck and accuracy today, otherwise it would not be Chelsea who are behind at this time, but Liverpool.
At half-time, Benitez also stressed only one point, and that was defence. In the second half, we had to defend well and not give Chelsea a chance.
In the dressing room, Benitez also brought on Khedira and Gerrard, allowing them to play as little as possible in the second half and focus more on defence. In the second half, Liverpool's attack was mainly on the counter-attack and on both flanks.
In the first half, Liverpool's two wings played very well, and there was a real feeling of flying on both wings. Gareth 61 Bale, Arshavin, Glenn 61 Johnson and Maxey 61 Rodriguez took turns attacking Chelsea's two wings, but they did not make Chelsea's two wings suffer.
The tactics for the second half were finalized, and the second half was almost about to begin, with players from both sides slowly walking out and onto the pitch, waiting for the second half to begin.
At this time, the Chelsea fans are loud and loud Chelsea players cheer on, hoping that the team can have a better form in the second half, not like the first half, which Chelsea fans are counting on.
With players from both sides on the field, Howard looked at his watch on his wrist, checked the time, and blew the whistle for the start of the second half with a puff of cheeks.
The first kick-off in the second half was the home side Chelsea, who attacked ferociously from the start, and now they are thinking about an equaliser. The Chelsea fans cheered even louder at this time, and they have been playing the role of the best 12th man in the Chelsea team.
