Chapter 446: "Nineteen Zero-One"

The Pole's height helped him, and his height of just over two metres made his defensive area much larger. In the face of Schurrle's shot, his limbs were extended to the maximum.

Just as the ball was about to enter the goal line, Szczesny's hand had already touched the ball.

"Szczesny!! A very beautiful save, he made Schurrle's long-range shot helpless! ”

Although he pounced on the ball, Schurrle's shot was not small, so Szczesny did not directly confiscate the ball, and the ball was knocked out of the six-yard box by his palms.

"Szczesny is out of danger!!"

Hazard suddenly appeared at the spot where the ball landed, and he didn't wait for it to fall or unload it on his chest. Instead, he stretched out his usual foot and kicked the ball over.

"Hazard!! Volley Pad Shot!! ”

The ball ran towards Szczesny's back of the net for the second time in three seconds, but this time Szczesny, who had already fallen to the ground, could not do anything.

The ball flew right in front of his eyes and into the goal behind him, and then plunged headlong into the net.

"The ball went in!! Hazard's stoppage shot!! ”

"Well done, volley from Hazard!! The Belgian took his chance in front of goal!! ”

Hazard !!!!!!! Just one minute into the game, the home team scored a goal!! Chelsea now lead Arsenal 1-0 and scored in the opening minute, the home side's first attack, the first kick and the second shot. Chelsea have had a fantastic start! ”

"Scored!!! It was Eden who scored for us – ' The Stamford Bridge on-field commentator played to his Blues-brained nature, interacting with the crowd after praising Chelsea.

'Hazard !!!' The Chelsea supporters in the audience responded enthusiastically to the host's voice.

When he saw that Szczesny had saved Schurrle's shot, Mourinho's hands that he wanted to celebrate suddenly hugged his head with some regret.

But before he could hold on, he saw Hazard's follow-up shot. So he immediately swung his fists with both hands and ran excitedly for two meters in front of his coach's seat. The Portuguese seemed to remember something, calmly put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked straight to his seat.

"Oh, oh, this is the true nature of a madman, after entering Chelsea in the second palace, Mourinho's personality has changed a lot. After several years of experience in Inter Milan and Real Madrid, he has become calm and has shrunk his edge, but the 'madman' nature in his bones is real!! Look at him shaking his arms hard, is this a demonstration like Wenger next door? ”

The broadcaster also moved the close-up from Mourinho's body to Wenger's face very "humanely", and the professor's expression was really ugly.

As for whether it is because of Mourinho's celebrations, or because his team table is not good, it is up to the people in front of the screen to make up for it.

Chelsea's goal celebrations lasted for a long time, they scored in the first minute, but by the time the ball was back out of the middle circle for Arsenal, it was already the first minute and 40 seconds.

For Arsenal, conceding a goal in just one minute is clearly not good news. Chelsea are a team that is good at playing tailwinds and counter-attacking defences, especially under Jose Mourinho.

Therefore, Arsenal is very eager to equalize when the excitement of the opponent has not yet gone down, otherwise it will be difficult to score goals after relying on the defense of the "Chelsea bus".

So Arsenal started attacking later, both in terms of morale and tactics, and they were very keen to equalise right away and get the two sides back on the same page.

In the face of Arsenal's attack, Chelsea have always put on the bus tactics they are proud of, and there is no awareness that they are going to press out to attack because they are at home.

Schurrle, Oscar and others all returned to the front of the penalty area, and Torres also retreated to help defend, and he kept pressing the ball at the feet of the Arsenal players, without the slightest sense of saving his body.

That's why Torres is often blacked out as a centre-forward, and of course, to be honest, Torres is also the best defender among the forwards

Eden Hazard did not return to defence and remained at the front of Chelsea. plays the role of counterattacking, which should be the task of center forward Torres, but he himself does not like to retreat to defend, and then Torres is happy to be loyal to retreat to defend and press, so the two simply change jobs.

Torres retreated to help Hazard defend, Hazard stayed in the front court to receive his teammates to counterattack, and Hazard still has speed, so it is more than enough to play a counterattack.

When Chelsea decided to retreat, Arsenal didn't have much to do. When Li Zihan got the ball, his side and front court were full of people, including opposing players wearing blue jerseys and his own people wearing red jerseys.

The core of Chelsea's backfield is so big, but it's densely packed with people. How do you tell him to break through? When his pace hasn't picked up, he's entangled in opposing defenders, and he's even more cunning when he wants to cut inside

There are at least five Chelsea players standing in front of the 30-meter area, not to mention that they are defensive players, even if it is a stake that does not move, it will take some time for Li Zihan to get the ball around these stakes.

And don't think that this is the end, when Li Zihan and Ozil and others cooperated, finally the people and the ball entered the penalty area, but there were still about three or four people waiting for him in the penalty area

With such a dense defense, no matter how good Li Zihan's shooting skills are, he doesn't need how wonderful the Chelsea defenders are to defend when he kicks out, they only need to move by the way, and the ball can hit him and pop up

I finally found the space to hit the goal, but on the other side of the gap. Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has been waiting for everything he has been waiting for – and he's almost bored to death.

'Even though Chelsea scored first, Chelsea is still the Chelsea we know. Playing ugly football, the timid dare not attack. It's not interesting to win such a game even if you win, the '1901' tactic is not only neutral fans, but your own fans must also be very dissatisfied, this is not football!! The Arsenal commentator complained.

But he was wrong about one thing, Chelsea supporters didn't boo their own team just for throwing a bus at home. They cheered very enthusiastically

Especially after seeing Li Zihan, the core of Arsenal's frontcourt, take the ball, there is not much to do, either the shot hits the defender of his own side and is cleared, or he is cleared before he can shoot the goal. So Chelsea fans are very happy!! - Oh my god, even if you can break the goals of Manchester City, Liverpool and Bayern Munich in 90 minutes by yourself? In the end, it is not impossible to open the goal for our Blues? No matter how you kick it, how you swoop it, the ball will eventually roll to the feet of our players.

Seeing that the core of the opponent's goal is suddenly not going to score, Chelsea fans feel very happy. What's even cooler than this is that the goal that the opponent can't score is his own home, and what's even cooler than this is that we are already 1-0 ahead!!

As for "1901", it is not an era, it is a kind of formation on the football field. It's an "off-the-beaten" formation, which you won't find in formation templates in various soccer games, but it's a common occurrence for small and medium-sized teams. Especially away from home, against strong teams and big clubs.

"One" refers to the last goalkeeper, "nine" refers to the nine defenders in front of the goalkeeper, "zero" refers to the zero midfielder in front of the defender, and the second "one" refers to the striker at the front

It's a great way to play counter-attacks, but it's even more useful if you've scored a goal or if you're just trying to keep an average.

Generally, such a formation will not appear in the giants, because the giants will not be "criticized" by the major bricks and media newspapers when they play this formation, and their own fans will spray it. If this happens to Real Madrid and Barcelona, then the players will wait to be scolded after the game, and the manager should quickly find the next home, otherwise he will face the risk of being unemployed at home

But what happened to Chelsea, especially the team coached by Jose Mourinho, did not seem to be "out of place"

Jose Mourinho is a "pragmatist" and not a supporter of counter-attacking defense. When he thought that the offense would help him win the championship and win the championship, he waved his hand and the team began to attack. When he thinks the defense can help him win, he also swings his hand big, but the previous one was forward, this time it was back. So the famous "bus" stopped at the "parking lot".

Now this Chelsea team has no offensive capital, so naturally they can only play defensive counter-attack, and they mainly lack a reliable center forward

Li Zihan didn't complain about Chelsea's tactics, after all, this is also part of football, and it is also one of the charms.

Well, to be honest, Li Zihan doesn't have time to complain about these now, he is now focused on scoring goals.

What does it take to get the ball into Chelsea's door? Li Zihan thought with a frown.

This is a question worth pondering!
