531 From global to local

Today's UEFA Cup final is easy to compare with the Champions League finals between Hamburg and Chelsea last year.

Chelsea have adopted extremely conservative strategies. Compared with the fulcrum of Chelsea's forward line last year, Chelsea is stronger this year in terms of personal dribbling breakthrough ability of the young king Hazard.

It is difficult to directly compare the strengths and weaknesses between Liverpool and Hamburg, because the two teams have different characteristics, Hamburg interprets creativity to the extreme!

With De Bruyne, Reus, Rakitic, Griezmann, and Giroud as the fulcrum, Hamburg last year interpreted offensive creativity to the pinnacle under Situ Yunbing. Unlike Barcelona who are good at controlling, Hamburg finally destroyed Chelsea with a wave-like offensive.

This year's Liverpool is obviously not as good as last year's Hamburg in terms of creativity, but it obviously wins in terms of intensity.

After the opponent adopts a conservative strategy, it becomes extremely difficult for Liverpool to use creativity to penetrate Chelsea's defense, so it is wiser to simplify the complex.

In the 34th minute of the game, Gerald received a pass from Coutinho on the right side of the frontcourt. He adjusted on the spot and made a cross without waiting for Ashley Cole to grab it.

Cahill headed the ball in the defense and cleared the ball. The football fell at the front of the penalty area. Lampard took the lead and headed the ball to relay it.

When Mata wanted to take the ball, Casemiro immediately rushed to fight against Mata and squeezed it out, then passed the ball diagonally to the left of the frontcourt.

Garez Bale directly pivoted the ball and cut across the ball to get rid of Ivanovic's pressing behind him. When Ramirez blocked, he quickly completed the wall-to-bumping cooperation with Coutinho. When he reached the left side of the penalty area, the football that was rolling in front of him was shot out with a cold shot!

The football flew straight to the lower right corner of the goal, and it seemed that the ball would definitely make the goal!

But Cech bravely rushed and saved the ball from the bottom line!

Gareth Bale looked calm and became braver the more he fought!

"Chech also staged a world-class save! Both goalkeepers performed well today!

But Liverpool's offensive is relatively more active and proactive, and the pressure brought is stronger than Chelsea's!

The score has not changed yet, who can break the deadlock in the game first?"

Benitez's face was as deep as water. His targeted deployment has achieved some results today, at least it has relatively curbed Liverpool's midfield offensive creativity. However, Liverpool is the stronger side in the overall strength. If you want to restrain Liverpool, you are still a little whimsical!

Situ Yunbing was calm and calm. He was full of confidence in the team. There was no sign of bad luck yet, and the game was still within expectations.

In the 40th minute of the game, Eriksen dribbled in the middle of the frontcourt and changed direction and got out of the angle. After shaking it out, he immediately passed the ball straight to the middle of the penalty area.

After retreating and receiving, Suarez tried to complete the pass and cut with Coutinho, and made a comeback with one kick, and immediately turned around and ran forward.

Coutinho chose to turn the ball horizontally against Ramirez's top grab, but what he unexpectedly expected was that Mikel was very decisive in rushing the ball so that he could not get the ball. When he subconsciously pulled the ball and wanted to turn around and then get rid of it, Ramirez's top grab cut off the ball!

Ramirez intercepted the ball and quickly pushed forward into the forward dribbler. Garez Bale immediately chased back, but when Ramirez was pushing forward, he realized that Eriksen came to steal, he decisively passed the ball diagonally in the middle of the circle.

Lampard stepped forward and followed up to advance the offensive. When Casemiro was planning to make a frontal interception, Lampard did not drag and put the ball in a precise diagonal pass against the ground and sent the ball to the left in front of the penalty area!

Hazard cut inward and touched the ball successfully!

The pressure on Liverpool's defense suddenly rose!

Scotter and Johnson stepped forward to attack Hazard, and they had to break the ball under his feet as soon as possible. Even if the steal was not formed, a foul was a way.

However, Hazard was not idle at his feet, and passed the ball straight to the left side of the penalty area and led it to the empty spot, and then continued to run towards the middle of the penalty area.

Benatia and Torres, who thrust into Scotter behind him to receive Hazard's pass. When Benatia focused on blocking Torres' shooting line, Torres turned halfway and forced his way back to knock the ball back on the middle!

Hazard had already arrived when Benatia turned around!

Although Hazard and Torres played easily this time, the difficulty was not small at all!

Hazard almost shot at the penalty spot!

The football is like a meteor passing by the night sky and hangs straight on the upper right corner of the goal!

Ter Stegen's save is powerless to turn the world back!

Hazard cheered after scoring and ran to the sidelines to celebrate!

The Amsterdam Arena heard overwhelming cheers, and the Blues fans were extremely excited and cheered for Hazard's goal!

Even Benitez couldn't help but turn around and clench his fist and waved it hard.

"Hazar! Chelsea's young king Hazard knocked the ball into Liverpool's goal!

This is an assist from Torres!

Today, the Blues Chelsea really played an extremely high tactical level. They defended closely, waited patiently for opportunities, and counterattack efficiently. This is the Blues Chelsea’s best playing style and the Iron Blood Blues we are most familiar with!

Haha, the new Premier League champion Liverpool is in big trouble!

They were in a position on the court and were behind in this final, and I think it would be difficult for them to equalize the score before the end of the first half.

What will Situ Yunbing do? Will he lose the finals for the first time?"

Situ Yunbing remained calm, but he was really a little terrified about Chelsea's playing style.

Because of this style of play, he often uses it when coaching Monaco, Hamburg and Liverpool, especially in the early days of coaching, he tightens the fence and sorts out the offensive and defensive transformation. As long as the opponent's offensive organization makes a mistake, he will immediately counterattack quickly and approach the city without a huge battle. Two or three people pass and cut and cooperate to solve the battle.

He can use it, why can't others use it?

sure!

And Chelsea is also a master of this.

If Chelsea had a Hazard today in the Champions League final last year, it would be hard to say whether Hamburg could win the championship.

Liverpool's long-range shooting style is not very effective, and it seems that more direct changes are needed during the halftime break.

There is not much time left before the end of the first half. Before the re-telection, Gerald encourages the morale of the team. With the captain, the morale of the army will naturally be stable.

Liverpool still hit Chelsea's defense step by step, but before the end of the first half, only Coutinho's long shot was quite threatening, and then the first half ended.

Back in the locker room, Situ Yunbing made tactical adjustments in a intensive manner.

From a global level tactical approach to making a fuss about local details.

The Liverpool generals listened carefully. After clearly understanding the tactical adjustments, Situ Yunbing cheered the team again.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Chelsea defended more firmly. Mata's slightly retreated from the position to assist in defending the middle or back to the full-back position. They are now afraid that Liverpool's stars' personal abilities will explode, fearing that they will destroy their defense line with a wave of operations like Gareth Bale or Suarez.

But Liverpool obviously began to attack the right side after the second half!

Ashley Cole defends Gerald alone, and as long as the two are not facing one-on-one, Gerald has a slight advantage because they are more flexible. If Gerald wants to break through, there will be basically no chance.

Ashley Cole is experienced. Although his speed and explosive power have decreased, Gerald does not have the ability to eat strongly.

But when Glenn Johnson rushed to assist in the second half, Ashley Cole seemed very embarrassed.

In the 51st minute of the game, when Gerald received Casemiro's pass from the right side of the frontcourt, Mikel immediately moved to his side to assist in defense. Gerald knocked the ball backwards to Glen Johnson who was inserted. The latter quickly advanced forward against the wing. Mikel did not dare to swing too hard, and Ashley Cole was afraid of being used by Gerald in the ribs and did not dare to pull the edge too much to block Glen Johnson.

Benitez frowned slightly when he watched on the sidelines. Liverpool's attack on the right is so radical, aren't he afraid of Hazard?

Although Chelsea's defense pressure increased sharply, Hazard was actually quite excited in the frontcourt. As long as Liverpool's offense was frustrated, he would have a good chance to counterattack!

When Glenn Johnson got off the bottom and made a cross, the football headed the ball in front of the goal by David Louis.

Lampard, who was in the front of the penalty area, turned half and volleyed the ball to the left of the frontcourt. It was obvious that he was looking for Hazard!

But when Hazard was about to stop the ball with his chest, Scotter came over and squeezed him away. In terms of physical confrontation, he was obviously not Scotter's opponent.

Scotter accurately pushed the ball to the location where Casemiro was.

Liverpool's attack hits again!

Benitez suddenly realized on the sidelines and looked at Situ Yunbing with his hands in his pockets and his head held high and his chest held high.

Is this a trap?

How could Situ Yunbing not know if Glenn Johnson assisted and Hazard would be almost in a good position on the left side of the frontcourt?

But since he wants to get it and Chelsea can see it, Liverpool will definitely make plans early.

In fact, before Lampard's long pass just now, Liverpool's midfield defense position was obviously biased towards the middle and right, in order to block the opponent from contacting Hazard when passing cooperation from the ground during counterattack.

But if it is a long pass, it would be too whimsical to instigate a threatening offensive if you want to make a long pass in this level of confrontation!
