Thanks to "lobrfish" for the tip! ――
Chelsea are two goals down at home and the squad is in a state of panic as they know what to do next.
Is it an offense?
But what about Millwall's counterattack? I can't prevent it.
Is it defense?
But can that lead to goals?
They didn't know it, they were confused, and their morale began to slip rapidly.
Behind a ball, some chase.
Falling behind by two goals can really put people on the verge of collapse.
Players who are born to attack naturally want to attack, but after the restart, Millwall did not take the initiative to defend and counterattack, but spread out the offensive point in an all-round way, forming a midfield ball control pressure, and then suppressing the momentum of Chelsea's attack!
Aldridge seems to have done nothing, but Millwall is constantly changing.
In fact, this kind of posture change is arranged before the game, and the players can know how to adjust their posture after the event of changing the shape of the game according to the heavy dà as long as they do not take the pre-game deployment of the coaching staff as a deaf ear.
In a match, a goal is the biggest game-changing event, secondly, there may be red card incidents, injuries to key players, and so on.
Millwall's attitude after the opening is to wait, steady, and after Chelsea has a little sign of attacking, they quickly pull out the formation to attack, and after the goal appears, it is to defend and counterattack, and after the defense counterattack has played an effect, then switch to a posture of all-round pressing attack.
With such a switch, the whole Millwall team is in lockstep. It shows their unity and tacit understanding. Thus making the opponent unpredictable. In the self-oriented game posture, you can always let the opponent's expectations fall short and confuse the opponent.
In the stands at Stamford Bridge, the home fans were expecting Chelsea to complete the comeback, but Millwall had the upper hand on the pitch, which made them anxious.
Before the end of the first half, Cristiano Ronaldo almost rewrote the score with a long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area, but unfortunately Cech played bravely to block the ball with one hand from the corner of the goal!
"The first half is over. Chelsea are 2-0 down at home to defending champions Millwall, and if they finish at this scoreline, Millwall will successfully defend their title and win the Premier League title two rounds ahead of schedule! Jose Mourinho's side looked stunned by two goals conceded, they looked overwhelmed in the closing stages of the first half, giving Millwall a chance to shoot from the edge of the danger zone, and they needed to bounce back in the second half, and it was up to Mourinho to adjust in midfield. ”
As he walked into the tunnel, Mourinho kept his head down and looked like he was already thinking about what to do.
Aldrich was relaxed. Steady progress.
In the dressing room, Aldridge didn't say a word. Just stay with the players and watch them clean their boots and re-tie their shin guards.
He used a calm gesture to inspire the players to understand that the game was not over and that there were still 45 minutes left for them to fight.
After 45 minutes, they can enjoy the fruits of a season's hard work.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, Mourinho sat in the dugout, his eyes staring straight at Millwall's half, with a strong expectation in his heart: make mistakes! Err! Err!!!
In the short time of the break, he figured out the simplest thing: if Millwall didn't make a mistake on their own initiative, Chelsea wouldn't have had any chance in the game.
Because it was an "unfair" game.
Millwall has the strategic high ground, Chelsea must attack from the beginning, Millwall can seize this point to deploy tactics, both coaches and players, are well aware of this advantage, but Chelsea's attitude towards Millwall is not clear, they can't be sure whether Millwall really came to Stamford Bridge to get a point to keep the league title.
In this regard, before the game was played, Chelsea were actually in a passive situation.
As a result, Mourinho has become overstretched in terms of troop arrangement and tactical options, and the room for play is very narrow.
Now two goals down, Chelsea are still playing counter-attacks as Millwall are attacking on the move.
It's just that Chelsea's slightly "conventional" counter-attacking routine in front of Millwall must have new changes, otherwise it will be difficult to make an unexpected threat, but at this point, Mourinho does not dare to change hastily, for fear that a change in one point will lead to a complete collapse.
In terms of posture, it is necessary to fight back.
How can I increase the threat of a counterattack?
You can only rely on your opponent to make mistakes!
Millwall either took it lightly or were too aggressive, whatever it was, only a mistake that Millwall made and was caught by Chelsea could give Chelsea hope of a comeback at home.
'Chelsea can't control the initiative on the pitch and they obviously lack a player like Alonso who can organise the attack and control the tempo of the game, and whenever they attack, the crowd can guess that they will move forward quickly, let alone Millwall's players. Chelsea have always wanted to play the tempo faster, so that the probability of being predicted by the opponent is too high, they have more players on the defensive, blindly pursuing fast attack, the first few points of the ball will be blocked by Millwall, or the focus of the defense will be shifted in a targeted manner, they need a midfielder who can control the scene, can give more teammates time to run, and read the game, master the attacking heat, and then decisively instigate a threatening attack when the time comes, now, they are just fast, just break through on the wings, In front of Millwall, they are like schoolchildren on the football field, listening to the teachings of the masters, Millwall is teaching them how to master the rhythm of the game, how to shape the game with the cooperation of the midfielders, and then take advantage of the opponent's distraction or excessive concentration in a certain area, suddenly shift the attack to the opponent's weakly defended area to launch a threatening attack. ”
Chelsea are strong but not strong enough to be superb, and Millwall are a super-class team. Their control of the game on the field. It's a master.
Second. Millwall are using more sophisticated game mastery to squeeze Chelsea, something that should make the Chelsea players feel the gap and make Mourinho understand what his side are missing.
In the 63rd minute, Henry swam on the side and cooperated with Xiao Luo to cut into the penalty area, and suddenly passed back to the top of the penalty area.
After 3 minutes. Lahm unexpectedly slotted into the penalty area and met Cristiano Ronaldo's cross into the far corner of the goal, but the ball slid out of the net.
After another 2 minutes, Xiao Luo suddenly launched a long diagonal pass, and the ball that flew into the back of the penalty area was successfully contested by Ronaldo, and he hit the goal with a header, but unfortunately the angle was too positive and was confiscated by Cech.
In the 71st minute, Ronaldo was surrounded outside the penalty area, and the Chelsea players did not dare to scramble for fear of being dismantled by Ronaldo when he made a move. Ronaldo stabbed the ball into the corner of the net with a hidden stab, but Cech reacted in time. fell to the ground and swooped to block the ball, and Ronaldo, who followed up with the follow-up shot, put an anti-aircraft gun and hit the plane with a kick.
Millwall's form was in full swing and they bombarded Chelsea.
It's a pity that their luck is a little bad.
Well, it's luck, and when you don't take advantage of an attacking opportunity and you miss a goal when you deliberately pick an angle to control the direction of your shot, it could be luck.
On the other hand, Chelsea's counterattack, Robben's physical decline is somewhat obvious, he did not take much advantage of Ram, who is mainly technical in defense, and Ribery on the other side did not create much of a threat, Schneider Although his explosiveness may not be as good as Ribery, but the experience and awareness accumulated over the years cannot be compared with Ribery.
Didier Drogba continued to struggle to make a difference in front of Nesta, with Frank Lampard cutting in and failing to create a better chance under the blockade of Alonso and De Rossi.
What's more, as time went by, Chelsea's morale slipped even more significantly.
There is no hope of winning the championship!
When the 75th minute of the game came, in the stands of Stamford Bridge, there were already home fans who began to leave!
After noticing this detail, the visiting Lions fans celebrated with joy and cheered for their team even more enthusiastically, even if the Millwall players let out a thunderous cheer after just passing the ball.
"It's less than 80 minutes before the Chelsea fans have begun to leave the stadium, and it's hard to say that this is their silent protest against Chelsea, because Chelsea's performance this season is obvious to all, except for the two direct conversations with Millwall in the league, they have only lost to Manchester City in the league, and at the same time, Millwall has also lost to Manchester City, but, in terms of points, Millwall has a slight lead over Chelsea, ignoring Millwall's words, Chelsea has gotten points, It is already their highest season since the establishment of the Premier League, and the league, there are still two rounds to play, this situation will inevitably make the home team fans very hurt and disappointed, the highest points in the Premier League season in the history of the team, but not to win the league title, their exit, we prefer to believe that the reason: we do not want to see the scene of the sworn enemy Millwall defending the title and successfully celebrating the victory. Unless a miracle happens and Chelsea equalise or turn the tide for the rest of the game, Millwall will be crowned Premier League champions of the season when the time comes at full-time! At Stamford Bridge! ”
"Martin, I don't think there will be a miracle, in the second half Chelsea only had two shots on goal, their formation is getting further and further back, the attack is getting more and more monotonous, it seems to treat Millwall's backline as a piece of paper, can it just rely on Robben and Ribery to sprint, Drogba's impact, can it shake Millwall? They need to be more patient, even, complex offensive routines to break through Millwall's defense, look at Millwall's average number of offensive passes, you know, Millwall seems to be playing tepidly, but in fact the attack is very patient and complex, this complexity, is to consume the opponent, through the guò pass frequently shift the center of gravity of the attack, so that Chelsea's defensive center of gravity, the player's attention is also passively diverted, and then seize the opportunity to play a threatening attack, on the contrary, Chelsea's attack, we do not see such a scene. ”
"Andy, does Mourinho still have time? I mean, will he be sacked by the Chelsea owner? ”
'I don't think Chelsea should think about sacking the manager because they can't afford it!' (To be continued......)
