Section 417 Opening Goal
U8 Update Fastest Reading Network "In this game, we have to change the formation. **β
Benitez looked at the tactical board and spoke for a long time.
"Why?" Jesterdam was a little puzzled.
'We didn't do well defensively in our last game against Chelsea. Benitez said, "We can't afford to make the same mistakes again in this game. β
"This one is different from the last one after all." Jesterdam said, "In this game, their Robben is injured. β
"That's why we have to be more careful." "They're definitely going to make changes to deal with this game, but we still have to think about how we can change the formation to deal with them. β
"Their changes?" Yesterdam was a little ridiculous, and he was a little contemptuous of Mourinho, "Just the coach who likes to watch the referee's lounge, busy with autobiographies, interviews, and celebrating goals? Where is like a coach! β
"Paco, you can look down on your opponent's character, but don't look down on your opponent's ability. He's a very good coach, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to lead the team to become the top ...... in the league."
"That's their foundation."
"At least it shows that his strength is no less than Ranieri's, do you dare to be so easy against Ranieri's team?"
Jesterdam shrugged, "Okay, I was wrong. So, do you know how their tactics will change? β
"I don't know." Benitez shook his head, "Coach Mourinho is a full gambler, how do I know which bet a gambler is pressing?" I never gamble. β
"Then how do you do a layout for xìng?"
"We don't gamble, but it's safe to be safe." Benitez said, "Based on their lineup and who is the main player, it is still possible to make a rough judgment. β
"Arjen Robben is injured, their attacking pace is definitely limited, and Duff's dribbling breakthrough is a step worse after all. And their midfield has not been filled, what we need to do is still to seize the middle game and suppress the wings. Benitez looked at the line-up and analysed, "I need Reese and Finnan to know how to play on both sides: if Duff is on the left, then Reese and the centre-back stay in parallel, and Finnan plugs in to press the distance forward. If Duff goes to the right, it's the other way around, with Finnan dragging behind and Reeser plugging in. Don't make a mistake. At the same time, our midfielders play double back and three front midfielders, Colwill and Garcia both cut inside, Joey's position is delayed, relying on the number of people to maintain the midfield advantage, the attack on the side is abandoned, the side is defended, the middle is strong, first the fence wall is secured, and then let's force knock on their door from the middle! βββ
'Liverpool's solution is to attack our backline from the middle. Looking at the tactical board, Mourinho spoke his mind.
"Why?" Clark, his assistant coach asked from the side.
"Isn't that something obvious? There's no other way for them to play with us. Mourinho said, "I watched the last Liverpool game, do you know how I felt? Benitez is also a utilitarian and conservative person at heart. He's not the kind of guy who has the guts to gamble with me, play attacking football, he's certainly not going to do it. β
"So ......"
"Therefore, in this game, he will definitely use the most secure and successful style of play." Mourinho said: "They are definitely playing our weakness in the middle because we are not connected well in the midfield. And their Zhao Yaning is the most outstanding midfield breakthrough master in the entire Premier League. β
"So, what are we going to do? Hit him from the side? β
"Wing impacts don't work very well, didn't you prove it last time? One cannot always step into the same river. Mourinho said, "It's definitely not going to work on the wings, their tactics can limit us, and we have a crippled man, so it's not going to be very successful." β
"What then? Fight for midfield? We may not be able to spell it. Clark wondered.
"Of course you can't fight, it's a clear thing." Mourinho said, "But if we can't win in midfield, it doesn't mean we can't win in midfield. β
Mourinho said: "Didier is the central man in our game. What we need to do is to rely on his role to squeeze the opponent's frontcourt, force their defense to retreat, and make Zhao Yaning's breakthrough distance increase. The defensive strategy in the backfield remains the same, as long as the depth of the midfield is increased, Zhao Yaning cannot achieve a quick breakthrough, and their offensive will not be able to get up. β
"Like Manchester United do?"
'No, do better than them, don't forget, this is my first title since I took over Chelsea and we have to win!' ββ
"Hello BBC crowds, it's the League Cup final and I'm Lineker."
The broadcast of the English league was still interesting in the 04-05 season. Although Sky TV broadcasts the Premier League and the Champions League, it is the BBC that broadcasts the two cup competitions in the UK.
And the commentary on the game was BBC-owned commentator Lineker, as well as Colliemore and Alan Hansen.
"Which team do you prefer to win?"
Lineker confronted Coremore and asked his own question.
"Do you really think there will be a second answer to this question?" Alan Hansen laughed, "Liverpool. β
"Me too." Corrymore said.
'Chelsea are stronger, have a better squad and they have always been considered the favourites for the title, with a league win over Liverpool by a dozen points.
"But we're all Liverpudlians." Alan Hansen said: "Of course we support Liverpool. β
"But what about in terms of strength?"
'Chelsea have a certain advantage, but it's not a must-win. Collimore said, "I'm still bullish on Liverpool. β
clarified the two guys around him who are seriously inclined to Liverpool, and Lineker also knows that this game, adhering to neutrality, is probably only himself.
In this game, the FA invited FIFA President Blatter as a special guest to meet the players of both sides before the game, and Welsh soprano Catherine Jenkins sang the national anthem before the game. The line-ups weren't much different from what was expected before the game, with Liverpool in goalkeeper Didek and Risser, Carragher, Hyypia and Finnan in the back line. In midfield, Hamann and Steven Gerrard played in midfield, with Zhao Yaning, Colwill and Garcia up front. In the center forward position, it is still the newly signed Spanish center forward Morientes. It is also worth mentioning that this is the eighteenth final of Morientes' career, which is the highest number for two teams, and he has won 15 of the last 17 finals, so let's see how lucky he is this time. β
This number is really a bit scary, and the other two can't help but admire.
'For Chelsea, goalkeeper Petr Cech, defenders are Galla, Carvalho, John Terry, Pacos Ferreira, midfielder Makelele, centre-back Jarosik and midfielder Frank Lampard. Luduff on the left, Joe Cole on the right, and Drogba in the centre-forward position. β
'Arjen Robben's injury is a major blow to Chelsea, but Liverpool also have the disadvantage of Alonso's absence. Chelsea, on the other hand, may have used Joe Cole because he had scored against Liverpool in his first two games, and he was still one of the more dangerous for Liverpool. And in this game, whether he can achieve anything more, let's wait and see. β
At this time, there are various ceremonies before the game, and Zhao Yaning is also thinking about how to score first: Chelsea's attack is not fluid enough to score many goals, which is a consistent problem for them against Liverpool, and how to score a goal first may be able to grasp the initiative and advantage for Liverpool.
But how to kick it? Chelsea are not stupid, their players are very good, and they have played well against Makelele three times, Makelele will definitely be very impressed with himself, once he has the ball, he will definitely not relax himself, so it will be difficult for him to do something to contribute at the beginning.
I have to be like something about it.
If you can't break through yourself, then you have to leave it to someone else. The whole of Liverpool, they are very familiar, the only thing that is not familiar is the newcomer Morientes. However, they must also remember Morientes in last year's Champions League, and they will not give him a chance to play shè goal, if they want to play a surprise, then Morientes cannot be the end, and the end ......
"John!" Zhao Yaning stopped Reese in the player's tunnel, "Discuss a tactic with you." β
Reese stopped, and only nodded lightly when he heard Zhao Yaning finish speaking.
The game starts with Liverpool kicking off. Zhao Yaning rushed to the front court as soon as he got the ball. Makelele immediately looked at him, but Zhao Yaning kicked the ball to the right and got to the feet of Morientes.
In front of Morientes, it was Gara who was guarding him, he shook lightly twice, and he wanted to pass, and just when Gala was deceived by his passing actions and didn't dare to come over to force the grab, Morientes suddenly raised his foot and crossed and kicked the ball directly into the penalty area!
Reese ran into the penalty area at high speed, the game had just begun, and no one paid too much attention to a full-back, which gave Reese a chance, facing the flying football, he directly hit a strong left-footed pump!
βgooooalοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌ Liverpool opened the scoring after 45 seconds!!! Reese!!! It's his big bang again, the standard Riesser-style goal! Cech couldn't make a save and Liverpool took a 1-0 lead!!! βΟΒ· u(8) Update the fastest reading network
