It's already November, and I didn't expect it to rain here in London......

Standing on the sidelines of Stamford Bridge, Li Bin listened to the hissing wind and rain around him that had overpowered the shouts of the fans, and felt the deep chill in the British wind and rain, and he was also a little chilled in his heart. It wasn't a situation he could have imagined, and Parma's trip to England didn't look very good.

Stamford Bridge, obviously not a very good pitch, with the ball in the forward rush, Arshavin stepped on a pothole on the pitch, stepping on a pothole, stepping on a splash. The ball at his feet, because of this blow, could not be controlled, he slipped under his feet, and was hit by Essien who grabbed the ball, Arshavin fell to the ground, and Essien snatched the ball over. And Arshavin on the ground turned over and stood up, the yellow and blue jersey on his body rolled on a large patch of mud, and when he stood up, the color was already clearly distributed.

It's a lot harder to play in the rain or play against a team like Chelsea, on their home turf......

Football is a kind of outdoor game, and one of the biggest advantages of being able to become the world's No. 1 game is that there is basically a goal on each side, and you can start playing. Football is rarely suspended because of the weather, except for hail, probably only in the winter of the Premier League, the game will be suspended because of heavy snow, and rain is such a thing, rarely let the game stop, generally speaking, unless it is a thunderstorm, the sky is constantly thundering, or the rain is too big, the ball is not stopped on the ground, but floating, in that case, the game will be suspended.

Now, although the rain in London is heavy, there is no sign of thunder, and it is still far from the water on the ground to float the ball, so the game has to continue. However, fighting in the rain is also the most difficult game in football, and the difficulty of Parma to win suddenly increases greatly.

On a rainy day, when the ball passes on the ground, the resistance will increase a lot, and in such weather, it is difficult to play a delicate match. Moreover, in such weather, the passing momentum will inevitably slow down, and if you want to attack quickly, it will also be affected. In the future, Barcelona will complain more than once the field is sprinkled with more water in the game, and on this rainy day, it is basically a game that has to make a splash on the ground, which is not an occasion to play technical football.

And this place in England, in addition to the heavy rain, is also characterized by strong winds, rain hinders short passes, and strong winds will also hinder long passes, under strong winds and heavy rain, in this case, how to play football will be affected.

And, even more, Stamford Bridge has never been a stadium with a reputation for being a good venue. In the early days, Mourinho used to mix sand in the field, but now although there is no sand, the heavy rain also makes the stadium not easy to play. Under the heavy rain, the field is full of potholes, and it is too difficult to kick out a technical attack under this kind of field.

Parma had few good chances since the opening kick-off, just because of the weather. The players have been on the pitch for less than five minutes, and they are already soaking wet, and once they fall, they are covered in mud and water, and this kind of game is too difficult to play.

Looking at the scene on the field, Li Bin also realized a big mistake of his own: Parma has not played a rain battle in Serie A, but the rain battle in Serie A is not particularly difficult. November is also a rainy period in Serie A, but the difficulty of playing in the rain in Serie A is completely different from that of encountering a Premier League team in the rain.

England has a lot of wind and rain, and the Premier League teams that play here are all good at rain battles. Generally speaking, when the feet are not coordinated, the better way to play the ball is naturally to play long balls, and the header will be better, which is also what English teams are good at - because they have played in this environment all year round and have developed such skills. The header ability of the Serie A team is not as good as that of England, and when it meets the Premier League team, it has always relied on the hard work of the feet to play. However, they couldn't play in the rain, and Serie A teams, especially teams like Parma, were affected far more than Chelsea. Originally, Serie A was at a loss because of its lack of height, not to mention that it is now in the rain?

It's still a mistake - watching the game, Li Bin is also a little annoyed. In my memory, the Champions League final was played on a cold and rainy night in Moscow, and playing in the heavy rain would have affected Parma a lot. The opponents in the final, whether Manchester United or Chelsea, will be embarrassing for Parma. Knowing that there will be such a thing in the future, and now that he is not ready, this is really his own mistake.

But fortunately, the problem was exposed in the group stage, and I still have time to adjust.

On the pitch, Zabaleta had just completed a long cross. Because of the heavy rain, he also knew that he couldn't cooperate, so he wanted to score a high goal. However, playing with a Premier League team, it would have been a stupid idea to want to play high ball, and the gale obviously affected his passing, this 45-degree oblique pass, flew directly out of the bottom line, Milito in front of the goal did not jump at all, just watched the football fly past.

Damn the rain.

The only thing that makes Li Bin happy is that now on the football field, although Parma can't control the scene, Chelsea is also not playing well - it is not the Parma family that is affected in the rain, Chelsea is also affected. If there was one of the biggest impacts, it was probably that Chelsea didn't dare to send Robben to play at all - with such heavy rain, the possibility of injury also increased greatly, Robben had just recovered from injury, and they didn't dare to bet that Robben would be so hard as to not get injured in the rain. Moreover, such a heavy rain has also reduced Robben's breakthrough role a lot, the two sides in the midfield, no one can clash, has been repeatedly entangled, although Chelsea because of the home and a little advantage, but there are not too many good opportunities.

Both sides are anxious, not only the coaches, but also the players, trying to find ways to score goals.

Arshavin got the ball in his own half, close to the touchline. Essien immediately ran over and tried to squeeze him and get him to kick the ball off the sideline. Normally, Arshavin would have passed him with a single turn, but now, he could only bend down against Essien with his back, then flick the ball and run backwards to shake him off. He gave the ball to Zabaleta, who was close at hand, and then rushed forward himself, Zabaleta didn't pass the ball directly, he knew how difficult it was to make penetrating passes on this field, he ran with the ball towards the middle of the road, and then gave the ball to Arshavin, who was running up the wing.

This kind of kicking is too far from the requirements of the fast attack, and the football is dragged with mud and water, and the offense is naturally dragged with mud and water. This raid was not fast at all, and now Arshavin is running, and the speed is not fast. However, although the speed is not fast, Arshavin has already suffered the loss just now, and he is smart, he no longer pursues fast attack at his feet, but firmly controls the football and advances on the side.

Beside him, Essien strode back: the rain doesn't have much of an impact on a physically strong player like him, especially when defending without the ball, and he can play more than usual. He walked around in front of Arshavin in two or three steps, and then he didn't have too many positions, and after choosing a position, he went straight to a tackle.

The tackle was ferocious, but Arshavin was ready for it. He knows very well that it is impossible for him to attack quickly now, and he has to think more about how to control the ball well. When Essien tackled, he immediately pulled the ball back and dodged Essien's defense, but although he dodged the tackle, the state of the ground made him unable to accelerate the impact quickly - it was this kind of ground that made Essien so confident and bold to tackle. He couldn't get up, so he had to change direction and run to the middle.

If he stays on the wing, he will be caught up by Essien immediately, but in the middle, Arshavin is tantamount to stepping into the encirclement carefully arranged by Chelsea. In front of him was Makelele, who was intercepting there, and Ballack also made up from the other side, and Essien behind him had already gotten up to catch up, and now he was basically in a state of siege by many people.

However, such a state also made Arshavin want to show off even more. The rain did hinder his technique, but now that his speed has slowed down anyway, his technique can also be kicked out. He took a step forward and got closer to Makelele, and then, with his feet in front of the penalty area, in a dangerous place, stepped on his bike.

At such a speed, the threat of pedaling a bicycle is not great, but the obstruction of rain makes it difficult for Makelle to judge his movement rate, and it can also make Makelele dare not easily get off his feet. Makelle waited for Essien's chase and wanted the two of them to cut him off together, but Arshavin was also very aware of Essien's speed, and before Essien chased him back, he also suddenly shortened and kicked the ball out of the way!

In this kind of weather, you need to pass the ball with more force. Before Arshavin's pass, he was short first, just to maintain his balance and not fall, and he kicked together, as if he was going to kick the ball to Milito in the penalty area, but before others could react, his feet had changed, and he had kicked the ball out of the box with a volley with enough strength!

It's a straight shot! No one expected that Arshavin would have such guts to choose to shoot in this situation, which made Makelele also a step slower to fill the position. In front of the goal, although Cech reacted, his jump seemed to be slow, and the ball flew towards the top left corner of the goal, and he couldn't intercept it!

However, the ball bounced off the crossbar, made a muffled sound, and bounced back into the box. When Arshavin shot, it was still because of the heavy rain that affected his shooting skills, and in such weather, he didn't dare to push the dead corner with the way he was better at shooting, so he could only choose to volley, but this volley was rejected by the crossbar!

But this attack is not over yet, in the penalty area, Milito has already jumped - the football jumped in an arc and fell back into the box, he grabbed the first point and smashed the ball towards the goal!

However, Cech, who had already fallen to the ground, suddenly bounced on the ground. The header that was close at hand took him directly into his arms, and then fell to the ground one by one, protecting the ball firmly under him.

'Cech saved Chelsea's life at a crucial moment, and the speed with which he got up from the ground was remarkable. Parma won't find it that easy to find the back of the net at Stamford Bridge and it looks like they'll need some luck. ”

When Stamford Bridge applauded Cech, Li Bin's brow, which had been frowning, stretched a little. The attack didn't work, but it made him think of a way to beat Chelsea in the rain.

So, give it a try.
