"-Ai!!" As the camera cuts, Lineker chants over Iello's presence in the camera.

However, the football came out of the post, and his voice also fell: "-Oh! What a pity! If it's a ball to the left, it's in! ”

With the exclamations erupting from the stands, Iroh gave Drogba a thumbs up as a gesture of gratitude.

"Iro's face was very calm, he didn't feel discouraged by the slightest miss in the opening shot, but gave a thumbs up to Drogba who played the ball for him at the first time, and it was amazing to be able to maintain such a mentality under the boos of 90,000 home fans!"

He Wei looked at Ailuo in the camera and said excitedly.

After expressing his gratitude, Iello did not quickly revert to his own half, but instead stood on his own side to attack on the left flank and Drogba on the right flank as Mourinho had arranged before the game, with Lampard following Xavi closely to prevent goalkeeper Valdés from playing a short ball.

Valdés had no choice but to kick the ball forward, and it was clear that apart from Yaya Toure and Thierry Henry, who were tall enough to rival the height of Chelsea players, the other positions were at an absolute disadvantage, with John Terry pushing Samuel Eto'o to head the ball over to Mikel, who used his strength to fend off Andres Iniesta, and then passed the ball to the unmarked Ashley Cole on the left flank before Yaya Toure could get on the ball, giving Chelsea successive chances of possession.

Pep Guardiola, who was standing on the pitch, frowned at Chelsea's tactical changes, and Elo, Drogba and Frank Lampard stood in the half to squeeze the space at the back and get the chance to attack forward continuously, so he turned his head curiously to look at Mourinho, who was sitting in the dugout with his legs crossed.

Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.

But...... Want to limit our offense so easily?

How naïve!

Pep Guardiola returned his attention to the pitch, nervously watching every wonderful shot of what happened on the pitch, and occasionally using guò gestures to warn the players on the pitch how to adjust.

Two minutes later, Messi had the opportunity to single out Ashley Cole on the right side, using his ability to combine the ball to shake the latter to the north, and then suddenly the outside of his left foot went sideways and cut inside!

Mikel hurried to keep up with the defense, wanting to interfere with Messi, who continued to dribble the ball, but Messi's lateral ball was just to attract the attention of the defense, and the arch of his left foot pushed the ball to Eto'o, and then continued to move laterally, as a result, Mikel ran too fast, and like Yaya Toure before, because of his height, he couldn't turn around at the same time as Messi who was 1.7 meters, and watched the opponent run behind him.

Eto'o, who looked ready to take the ball straight from the left side of Chelsea's defence, chose to play the ball to Messi who moved laterally with the outside of his right foot.

Messi picked up his left foot at the top of the arc of the penalty area to meet the ball and hit the goal, Terry subconsciously fell to the ground to block, but he did not shoot, but the outside of his left foot passed the ball through Terry's blocking angle, and then raised his left foot again and hit a curved ball.

Fortunately, Cech's concentration was very focused, coupled with his height and long arms, he directly jumped sideways to hold the football in mid-air.

"-Oh!!"

Chelsea TV commentator Clive Walker cheered for Cech's brilliant save.

When Iello got the opportunity two minutes ago, Barcelona goalkeeper Valdsmao didn't touch it, and when Messi got the same opportunity as Iro, he was firmly held by Cech, shot from the same position, and the goalkeeper played differently, which made the Chelsea fans at the scene chant.

Even if they know that the sound cannot reach the ears of the players, they choose to do so without hesitation.

Ten minutes into the game, Barcelona, who were playing at home, changed their strategy, and their aggressive high pressing gradually took the initiative on the field, and their pass-and-control football slowly controlled the rhythm of the game, both offensive and defensive.

Although Barcelona's midfield is more like a co-defender than Yaya Toure has a certain defensive toughness, Xavi and Iniesta are more like assistants, but with the overall cutting of Chelsea's players' passing angles and high pressing, it is simply impossible for the Chelsea players on the field to adapt.

By the twentieth minute of the first half, the home and away teams had nearly seven or three points in possession.

So Mourinho, who could sit comfortably in the coach's seat ten minutes before the start of the game, couldn't sit still, he stood on the sidelines and made frequent gestures and codes to give the team moves, but it still didn't help the situation on the field, and Barcelona under Guardiola's management upgraded Tiki-Taka!

More strategic and controllable.

Coupled with the fact that the two ribs have the likes of Xavi and Andres Iniesta, who are in charge of the attacking direction, the Chelsea backline is frequently struggling.

Iello has been on the pitch for more than five minutes without receiving a football, and now it is easy for both Frank Lampard and Ballack to lose the ball in the face of a two-man or even three-man combined high press, and they are excellent with long and short passes and control of the tempo, but their technique is not delicate enough

The Chelsea midfield lacks a midfielder who can handle a football with a delicate technique!

Modric, who was sitting on the bench, was that type of player, but the game had only been going on for more than twenty minutes now, and it was clear that a substitution was not a wise choice now, so for Mourinho, it was just a matter of waiting!

Barcelona took the initiative on the field, and the fans in the stands were also happy to cheer for the team, cheering wave after wave.

With more than 20 minutes to play, Barcelona had the advantage, but Messi was not happy because he did not get a decent chance during this time, and the team ate up his living space while dominating, and Chelsea's defense was very compact by Barcelona's attacking line, which meant that his inside scoring route was completely cut off.

Although Iniesta consciously strengthened his support for Messi, he was helpless to the stability of Chelsea's backline, and every time he seemed to pass a good ball, there would always be Chelsea players who ran to the defensive position just right to defend.

In this case, another ten minutes passed in the game.

At this time, the broadcaster once again played the ball possession ratio between the two sides, and Lineker shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Barcelona at home has more than 70% possession, which can be said to take the full initiative, but fortunately, the attention of Chelsea's defenders is very focused and there is no distraction, making Xavi's pass more than a straight pass." ”

The local commentator in Italy sighed and said: "Barcelona's excessive possession did not help them break the deadlock, but rather seemed to be at a dead end......

If England manager Fabio Capello was present, he would have pouted and said: "Too much possession will seriously delay the team's overall movement speed, and it will also make the opponent more prepared!" ”

However, the Catalan commentator has a different opinion: "Pep Guardiola's Barcelona is obviously much better than it was under Rijkaard last season, the players have become more responsive, the two full-backs are more bold to assist forward, and after conceding the goal, they always counter-attack on the spot, and organize a second attack......

Standing on the sidelines with his arms crossed, Pep Guardiola is still happy with his team's attack during this period, and although he has yet to score, he believes it is only a matter of time.

※※※

A few minutes passed in the game, and during this time, Chelsea got two opportunities to attack, both of which were when Cech did not pass through the transition of the midfielders at the first time after winning the ball, and directly threw the ball and made a long pass to find Elo, and Alves, who defended Elo, was not as good as Ailo in terms of height and physical strength, so Ailo had a great advantage in the counterattack, and was able to control the football very steadily and wait for his teammates to support.

And often at this time, the Barcelona defenders will always put Ailo to the ground for safety.

However, this option is exactly in line with Chelsea's tactics before the end of the first half, as it can reduce the time spent in the middle of the field, and it can also organize attacks directly in the front court, reducing a lot of unnecessary mistakes.

In the 38th minute, the aggressive Samuel Eto'o followed Mikel from the 30-metre area of the Chelsea defence to the halfway line, and he also drew a cheer from the stands, and Tongguíya Toure broke the ball off, and the ball was picked up by Andres Iniesta to launch a counter-attack on the spot.

Seeing that the two midfielders Ballack and Mikel were not in his defensive zone, Terry simply put his position first, wanting to steal Iniesta, who was buried in the ball, and also pay attention to the echo between the latter and Messi.

Sure enough, Iniesta picked up the ball to Messi with the outside of his right foot, who faced the goal after getting the ball, but he didn't want to shoot with the ball, but the outside of his left foot wanted to pass the ball to the space behind Terry, but Terry had already taken precautions, and kicked the ball to the left rib of his own defense.

Alves and Ashley Cole rushed to the ball at the same time, the former poked the ball forward with the advantage of closer distance, but what he didn't expect was that the ball just kicked the arch of Ashley Cole's right foot, and the ball rolled forward irregularly.

Mikel, who had made a mistake earlier, scrambled the ball with his right foot towards the left touchline, then shook off the angle and drove the ball straight to the front court with his left foot.

Iroh subconsciously turned around and ran, Max stuck the position and let the ball go, and the ball bounced to the left rib after bouncing forty meters from the baseline, which made Iroh see the opportunity to break the ball, and immediately increased his speed to the extreme.

"Give me the ball!"

Valdés saw that Iroh was chasing very closely, and reminded Max loudly to avoid unnecessary mistakes.

At the same time, Max already sensed that Iello was catching up with him on the right back, so he quickly used the outside of his right foot to pass the ball to Valdés, who came out to pick up.

Half a second later, the Catalan commentator exclaimed: "Ouch, the return power is small!" ”

"-Oh-oh! Opportunity!! ”

The pro-Chelsea commentators chanted in unison.
