Chapter 214: Mental Game
Ten minutes into the second half, Chelsea scored a miraculous goal, a header from Joe Cole...... You know, it was his first header of the season.
At 2:1, Chelsea relied on the friendly send-off of the Germans and deservedly accepted the gift and completed the goal.
"It was such a comedic scene that even Hollywood writers could not have imagined that Chelsea would break the deadlock in such a way. You know, this is the FA Cup final, and any goal could make or break the trophy. Lyman, I don't know if he felt a threat from God at that moment......"
Huang Jianxiang hahadaxiao said: "Director Zhang weishenme said so? ”
Zhang Lu said with a smile: "Because when Qiao Wanxian was interviewed, he said several times that he was coaching Chelsea on behalf of God." ”
“……”
Huang Jianxiang rolled his eyes and was speechless for a while.
On the field, after scoring a goal, Joe Cole immediately got up from the ground and celebrated wildly, stepped out of his handsome thighs, and ran to the sidelines like crazy.
Everyone shouted, what's wrong with this guy? Is it the urgency to run back to the locker room?
Soon, though, the crowd understood the true intentions of the talented player, known as England's "midfield magician", and he embraced the substitute Frank Lampard!
I see!
Frank Lampard was on the bench but he was no less active than the players on the pitch, and he almost rushed on the pitch to celebrate with the players when he saw the goal, even more excited than he scored a goal.
Lyman pinched his waist. Turning his head and sulking, Gilberto. Silva came over and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, as if he had been on a stake. He was completely unresponsive.
Arsene Wenger had a black line in his head, clenched his fists and sulked for a while. Although this Lehmann is also a Shijie-level goalkeeper, there have been many mistakes, and there is still a lot of gap from Seaman's height, but he deeply understands that now is not the time to complain, and he must quickly calm down the restlessness. Restore the morale of the army.
'It doesn't matter, we're one goal ahead and we played like we did in the second half of the first half. Pass in the backfield, counterattack with a long pass! The victory is still ours, it was just an accident! ”
Arsene Wenger shouted a few more times at the pitch and made a few more gestures.
The other side. Qiao Wanxian also shouted as if he sneered: "Guys." Beat him up! The opponent has been beaten stupid by us, and we will win this game because God is already on our side! ”
The angry Wenger's old face was purple, and he glared at Qiao Wanxian viciously.
Qiao Wanxian didn't care, hugging his shoulders and enjoying the cheers of the Blues fans.
When the game restarted, Arsenal felt the sweetness of the backfield, and launched a series of meaningless passes such as return passes and horizontal passes.
Although Qiao Wanxian put Roy. Keane is a free man in midfield. But Arsenal belong to the big teams after all, and the quality of the players is very high. It is not easy to break the ball from their feet, and although Arsenal has been forced to be in a difficult situation for a while, it can be regarded as a stable defense.
On the sidelines, Arsene Wenger looked a little smug.
Qiao Wanxian frowned, thought for a while and ordered, "Let Roy. Keane's position is a little bit retraced. ”
Boas didn't understand what Qiao Wanxian meant, but he didn't think much about it, and immediately conveyed his meaning.
Roy. Keane is the soul of Chelsea's play, the brains of the team, and when he drops back, the backline and central midfield follow suit.
Arsenal immediately felt the pressure on their defence, and the players were relieved, and their biggest fear was that Chelsea would take the opportunity to break their own goal when they were transitioning between attack and defence, and now it seems that Chelsea will not be able to withstand it first.
Speaking of which, how much physical strength does it take to scramble in the front court?
However, Wenger's expression in the distance was extremely grim, and he was even more worried than ever.
"Lift your spirits, concentrate, don't let your guard down, be careful!"
If Chelsea continue to press, Wenger is not worried at all, because he knows very well that Chelsea's front line looks fierce, but it does not give the Arsenal players a real real threat.
Roy. Keane and Makelele, plus a Kaka who looks to 'disappear' but is actually the most lethal, Chelsea's midfield team is nothing short of formidable.
"Cole! Cole! Don't press too hard, come back, defend first! ”
Wenger found that Qiao Wanxian was secretly whispering to Joe Cole just now, and felt that Joe Cannon might be playing some tricks, so he hurriedly issued an order to Ashley Cole. Just now Joe Cole scored a goal through Lehmann's mistake, and now it is in full swing, and Joe Cannon has made a special tactical deployment for him, which is deserved.
Wenger's brows were tightly knit, and he couldn't understand Qiao Wanxian's thoughts. The threat of Owen in front of him is too big, Colo. Toure alone can't defend at all, so this game Gilberto. Silva has completely become Kaka's shadow, and the responsibility of organizing has been handed over to Cesc Fabregas.
But even so, Kaka's sudden possession of the ball still attracted the extreme attention of Wenger.
"Gilberto! A little more ferocious! ”
Arsene Wenger is desperate to win, and when Chelsea get the ball, he lets the players steal violently, and when he gets the ball, he passes it through the backfield, which is simply disgusting.
Gilberto. Silva and Kaka are teammates in the national team, although they don't have many personal friends, but the relationship is also harmonious, how can they really give Kaka a black foot?
A moment of hesitation gave Kaka an opportunity to break through with the ball, and the speed soared, driving all the way.
Silva tried to steal again, but the speed was completely unable to keep up, and he watched Kaka go straight to the Yellow Dragon.
Jowan let Roy. Keane's retreat caused all three of Chelsea's lines to move back, making the distance between Arsenal's back line and the midfield line a lot longer, making the central defender and the midfielder position a little disjointed, which also gave Kaka the opportunity to dribble the ball for long distances.
"Bastard!"
Seeing Kaka go straight to the hinterland with the ball, Rooney and Joe Cole on both sides went hand in hand, and there was a three-way army of jiashi driving at the same time, and the momentum was huge! Arsene Wenger subconsciously burst into a foul language to Gilberto. Silva's performance was extremely disgruntled.
"This bastard, what is he doing? He's joking with the honor of the whole team! ”
Wenger's face turned pale and his shoulders trembled.
Because of the presence of Owen, Arsenal's double central defender Kolo. Toure and Sendros didn't dare to make a bold move, but goalkeeper Lehmann atoneted for his sin this time and saved Kaka's lethal long-range strike to keep his team in the lead.
In the Millennium Stadium, tens of thousands of gun fans exhaled at the same time, so dangerous!
Card Rush, it's amazing!
Although Lehmann saved Kaka's shot, Wenger felt that his heart was almost jumping out just now, no, he couldn't let this happen a second time!
Gilberto. Silva's indulgence in Kaka resulted in his playing time being fixed at 69 minutes.
Arsenal made a substitution, with No.17 Edu replacing No.19 Gilberto. Silva.
It was a counterpoint substitution, with one Brazilian midfielder for another, and it was clear that everyone could see that Arsene Wenger was against Gilberto. Silva was unhappy.
The same Brazilian, the same midfielder, Edu and Gilberto. The gap between Silva is still not small, the latter is the Brazilian national team's main Indian midfielder, and the former is ...... is still struggling to get into the squad of the national team.
However, Edu scored a goal for Arsenal in the last league game, and Arsene Wenger believes he is in good form and he should perform better than Gilberto as he works hard for a selection in the national team. Silva worked harder, and he didn't have been teammates with Kaka, so he didn't have much of a relationship, so he should not have much of a problem defending Kaka.
"Put Gilberto. Silva replaced? Replace Edu? ”
When Huang Jianxiang saw this substitution, he was puzzled in his heart, and he couldn't help shaking his head and said: "Director Zhang, what do you think of Wenger's substitution?" As we all know, Vieira and Gilberto. The Silva duo is the backbone of Arsenal and puts Gilberto. Silva replaced, it means that Arsenal completely changed the lower back, which ...... Will it work? ”
Zhang Lu is not interested in Wenger's substitution, and people in the football circle know that Wenger's on-the-spot command has always been criticized, which is very inconsistent with his status as a Shijie-level coach.
But Zhang Lu is just the general manager of the Beijing Guoan Club, plus a CCTV commentator, to comment on Wenger's rights and wrongs, he is still a little measured, and said vaguely at the moment: "Maybe Wenger has some tricks." The construction of replacing Vieira with a small method would be perfect, and perhaps Edu would replace Gilberto. Silva, will also receive unexpected results? ”
"I always felt that Arsene Wenger's substitution was forced, Roy. After Keane came on, Chelsea's midfield was much harder, which was equivalent to freeing up Kaka, but even Gilberto. A top midfielder like Silva can't guard against Kaka, can Edu? ”
Huang Jianxiang has always been fast-talking, so it doesn't matter what Wenge or wet you are, there is a series of questions when you come up.
Zhang Lu said with a smile: "There is still a long time to play, let's watch it slowly, this game is really good." Not to mention the performance of the players on the field, even the fighting style of the coach off the field is so exciting, look at the results, then I know who the winner of this mental game is! ”
Huang Jianxiang muttered secretly in his heart: "Old fox! Then he asked jokingly: "Who are you more optimistic about that guide?" ”
Zhang Lu's words were stagnant, and he hesitated for a while before he said three words: "Qiao, Wan, and leisure." (To be continued......)
