Chapter 738: Mourinho's Blitzkrieg (Part I)
The 9o minutes at Anfield are the last 9o minutes for Liverpool and Chelsea, and the feuds between Liverpool and Chelsea, Mourinho and Benitez, Mourinho and Chen Yu will also be known in this game.
There were more fans at Anfield than at Stamford Bridge, and more journalists than at Stamford Bridge, all waiting to see what was destined to be a great and intense game.
The fans came to the stadium early, the stands were full, and when there was still an hour before the start of the game, the fans began to sing the team song, shouting and provoking, and the atmosphere was so warm that the stadium security began to work early, isolating the fans of the two teams and preventing the fans of both sides from clashing before the game began.
There are a lot of commentators here today, and the game hasn't started yet, but Liverpool and Chelsea have had a lot of grievances in recent years, as well as Chen Yu and Mourinho, two topical figures, they don't worry about the topic, even if they let them talk for an hour, they can hold it completely.
“…… Liverpool had the advantage in the first game and they will certainly be defensive-oriented, and Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is a master of counter-attacking and he certainly has a way of dealing with dense defences......
“…… Although it may be an attack and a defense, but the game is definitely exciting enough, absolutely exciting, the last time Chelsea were eliminated by Liverpool, when Mourinho said that Chelsea lost to the referee, thinking that the referee put Luiz. Garcia's unwarranted goal was counted on Liverpool, and this time, Mourinho could not tolerate Chelsea being eliminated twice by the same opponent......
“…… It is rumored that this is a game that will decide the fate of Mourinho, after Shevchenko's problem, Abou has been very dissatisfied with Mourinho, and now Chelsea lost to Liverpool in the key competition of the league, and also fell behind Manchester United, the league title has almost become a dream, at this time, if Chelsea's Champions League also played, Abou is definitely not small to dismiss him......"
“…… In the last game, Chen Yu was brave, Liverpool also got the results they needed, this game is more important, I believe that Mourinho must have thought of a way to deal with Chen Yu, the last game Mourinho adopted lethal tactics, which tactics will they adopt in this game? Benitez knows that Chelsea will go all out against Chen Yu, is there a way to protect Chen Yu and use Chen Yu's ability......
“…… At this moment, the two managers must still be in the locker room to cheer up their players, these two masters have the ability to agitate that ordinary coaches do not have, if you can go into the dressing room to have a look, it will definitely be very rewarding, but unfortunately the dressing rooms of these two teams are never open to the public......"
The commentators on the scene explained to the fans in their own region or country what was happening today and what was to come, and some were more interested in what the two managers were doing in the dressing room, although these commentators did not enter the dressing room, but the dressing rooms of Chelsea and Liverpool were obviously more tempting.
In the dressing room, the two managers were indeed agitating their players, but Benitez was more poised and spoke in a deep voice, in the tone of a man on top, while Mourinho was so passionate as if he were a speaker, so much so that laughter could even be heard in the dressing room of the visiting Chelsea team from time to time.
With six or seven minutes to go, the referee on duty, Austrian Prout, shouted and Liverpool and Chelsea players walked out of the dressing room.
Before such an important game, Chelsea's players were passionate and fierce, like a hungry wolf coming down the mountain, while Liverpool's players were dignified and determined, like a mountain, as soon as the two teams met, their eyes first clashed for a while, and it seemed that they couldn't eat the opponent in one bite.
Referee Plaut felt that the air seemed to become a little stagnant, he coughed, and routinely warned the Liverpool and Chelsea players, "I know this is an extremely important game, none of you can afford to lose, but I want you to play fairly on the pitch and don't try to win by unfair means, otherwise you will pay the same price......"
Referee Prout's words were heavy, but they barely had any impact on the players on both sides, who were still focused on their opponents, as if they were going to overwhelm them with momentum, until they felt that they could not be overpowered, and then took their eyes off their opponents.
Referee Prout smiled bitterly, knowing that his words would not have a deterrent effect on the giants who were all stars in the whole team, and when the game started, he had to use a yellow card to control the feelings between the two sides and show his authority, otherwise the game would be difficult to control.
After a few words, Prout asked the caddie to come over and take the player's hand, and then led the player to the court.
The fans in the stands were exchanging fire through the security guards, and when they saw the players coming out of the tunnel, they immediately gave up shouting and shouting, and at the same time burst into enthusiastic cheers.
"LiverpoolLiverpoolLiverpool"
"Liverpool must win"
"Chen Chen"
With three-quarters of the Liverpool fans in the stands and no more than a quarter of the Chelsea fans, the entire stadium seemed to be filled with the voices of the Liverpool fans, and the voices of the Chelsea fans were all silenced.
The more than 10,000 Chelsea fans who came to watch the game were very tenacious, they kept making their voices louder, and finally conveyed their thoughts and emotions to their players when the voices of the Liverpool fans gradually sank.
'Come on Chelsea'
'Chelsea must win, we are champions'
"Long live Jose Mourinho Drogba scores"
Chelsea's crowd is small, but they are full of momentum and energy, and once their voices are revealed, the Liverpool fans can no longer suppress them all, and there is always a handful of fans in the stadium who are unyielding to shout.
Players from both sides were in a hurry to fight, and the pre-match ceremony went quickly, and after exchanging flags and badges, both sides returned to their own halves to prepare for the start of the game.
Referee Pullut looked at his watch, and at 45 p.m., he blew the whistle for the start of the game.
At the beginning of the game, after Chelsea who kicked off first passed the ball back, strikers Drogba and Shevchenko immediately ran to Liverpool's half, and the Blues' midfielders passed the ball back to the back line, and then followed the forward to Liverpool's half, and the back line also moved forward after distributing the ball to the side, and the overall formation was all pressed up at the beginning, without hiding their offensive intentions.
Liverpool's players began to shrink from the first second, until they were within 30 metres of goal before they stopped, holding their feet down and waiting for Chelsea to attack.
Among the famous players on both sides, the most eye-catching are Chen Yu and Drogba, who are also the winners and losers of this game, and the biggest variable between Liverpool and Chelsea who will advance is the two of them.
Didier Drogba was the most advanced in the Chelsea squad, with him on the line of the Liverpool penalty area and constantly moving in and out of the box, ready to receive passes from his team-mates.
Chen Yu's position is obviously different from Chen Yu, his position is in the 30-meter area, but he does not defend actively like other Liverpool players, nor does he stand between Chelsea defenders like striker Kuyt, he is cruising about ten meters behind Kuyt, once the Chelsea player holds the ball next to him, he goes up to force it, and he ignores the ball when it is far away from him, and it is not even as large as Kuyt's range.
Drogba is Chelsea's bridgehead, his position at the front is normal, and Chen Yu's position is indeed a bit different from before, today's Chen Yu is not a midfielder like a midfielder, like a striker is not a striker, he also attracted the attention of fans and commentators, everyone is talking, are speculating about Chen Yu's position and role today, as well as Benitez's intention to arrange troops.
“…… Liverpool is a 451 formation today, striker Kuyt is at the front, his role is similar to Drogba, but the other Indian striker Chen Yu is not in front, he stays with his midfield, but he doesn't seem to have too many defensive tasks, it seems, he is more of a killer hidden behind the striker...... Chelsea players did not relax their defense of Chen Yu, no matter where Chen Yu goes, there are always Chelsea players who move closer to him, and there are other Chelsea players who intentionally or unconsciously cut off Chen Yu from other Liverpool players, and the importance of his defense is above Kuyt...
The on-site commentator analyzed.
The Chinese commentator is still He Shishi from TV, who has not yet entered the game, and he is still introducing the lineups of both sides, "Liverpool's goalkeeper is Reina; Four-back Finnan, Carragher, Ager, U Aurelio; The five midfielders are Reese, Gerrard 8, Alonso 14, Sissoko, Chen Yu, and the single striker No. 18 Kuyt...... Compared to the previous game, Liverpool have made a lot of changes, Reese mentioned the midfield, Aurelio played as a striker, Mascherano was suspended for a red card, Sissoko replaced him, and the striker also changed from Crouch to Kuyt, which is a very hard and very thick midfield, such a midfield is even harder than Chelsea's midfield...... Chelsea are still in a 43 formation: goalkeeper 1 Cech; Four defenders 2o - Ferreira, Carvalho, - Terry, 3 Ashley. Cole; Three midfielders: 4 Makelele, Essien, 8 Lampard; Three strikers: 1 Kalou, 1o Joe. Cole, 11 Drogba. There are two differences between this Chelsea game and their last game, one is that Essien who has returned from suspension replaces Mikel, and the other is that Shevchenko sits on the bench and Kalou replaces him, Essien's strength and experience are much stronger than Mikel, and his will make Chelsea's midfield defense and interception to the next level, but Kalaw's replacement of Shevchenko is shocking, no one knows what the former European Footballer of the Year will lead to when he sits on the bench, everyone knows that he is the favorite of Chelsea owner Abou, Mourinho put him on the bench, If you win the game, it's easy to say, and if you lose the game, I believe Mourinho's life will not be easy...... Well, let's not worry about so many post-game things, or ...... Ah, dangerous Chelsea chances......"
