After the start of the second half, Tottenham Hotspur continued to maintain its offensive advantage against Chelsea amid the shouts of more than 30,000 fans at White Hart Lane Stadium, but the players were also following the adjustments arranged by Ye Qiu in the midfield and appropriately weakening the pressure on Chelsea, just firmly grasping the rhythm and initiative of the game.

Ye Qiu has always been standing on the sidelines to direct the game, and he is constantly making appropriate adjustments to some local small details, such as when he asked Fabregas to move forward, then backward, or when he asked Ribery to move forward a little further, all of which are very subtle local adjustments.

This is on-site command

Ye Qiu compared this to driving. What kind of effect the tactics need to achieve in the overall situation is equivalent to the destination you are going to. In the process of driving, the correct direction is the basis, but when driving on the road, you must firmly hold the steering wheel and make some subtle adjustments.

If you drive a car, you will know that if you drive on the road, even if you hold the steering wheel tightly with both hands and try to fix the steering wheel, the direction of the car will continue to change slightly. If you don’t adjust the steering wheel quickly, this slight change will eventually turn into an accident in your mind.

The same is true for football games. Your tactics cannot be reflected in the court in a constant state. The opponent will adjust your tactics, making your tactics constantly change like driving. If you don’t adjust and change accordingly, you will have an accident and eventually lose the game.

When everyone drives on the road, he will not want to turn the front of the car or make a right-angle turn because of this slight change. He will more easily shake his hands, either left or right, and drive the steering wheel to fine-tune it.

This is true for Ye Qiu, and so is Ancelotti, both sides are waiting for their opponents to take action.

"He seems a little unsatisfied." Ye Qiu has been paying attention to Ancelotti and said to Mauro Tassoti next to him with a smile. He saw that Ancelotti could still sit in the visiting team's coach's seat after the second half, but now he has come out.

Mauro Tasotti was a teammate of Ancelotti when he was a player, and later was Ancelotti's assistant when he was coaching at AC Milan. He knew Ancelotti very well, at least he knew Ancelotti's cautious personality very well.

Many people think that Ancelotti has always insisted on offensive football. In fact, he only moved to offensive technical football after coming to AC Milan. But that was also caused by the players of AC Milan at that time. Who has outstanding technical players such as Sidov, Pirlo, Kaka, Rui Costa and Rivaldo. It is difficult to play conservative football than to reach the sky.

Ancelotti has always been watching the food and tailoring her style. After coming to Chelsea, he also organized tactics based on the team's lineup. Whether it was Ancelotti coaching Juventus or before that, his football has always been known for its conservativeness.

So, Ancelotti looks very smooth and knows how to adapt, but in fact he is very cautious, sometimes even so cautious that he is hesitant, which is a bit like driving.

All old drivers know one thing. When you drive through a fork in the road and meet with the car on the opposite side, you either step on the brake and let him pass first, or you will express your attitude. I want to pass first and wait for him to let you, but generally the latter will leave room for anything, but no matter how you choose, it will not be the kind of hesitation, and you dare not pass after sticking your head out, but you dare not pass and think about it. This will easily lead to accidents.

So, many times, many people are puzzled why Ancelotti made some mistakes in some games?

This may be the actual reason.

It seems that this game has been going on. In the 63rd minute of the second half, Tottenham Hotspur still maintained its advantage, and Chelsea is still very passive, but the situation between the two sides is still in a stalemate. Tottenham Hotspur still failed to break through Chelsea's goal. Both sides attacked and defended, and stood in a stalemate, as if they had reached a certain balance.

Generally speaking, the head coach is the hardest choice in this situation because your adjustment is to break this balance, and as the balance is broken, the risk is great, either you turn the situation around or your opponent turn the situation around.

Ye Qiu has never seen any idea of ​​substitution in this game. Even if he plans to substitution, because the initiative is in his own hands, the question he is thinking about is still how to make a more threatening attack.

If Ancelotti just wants to strengthen his defense, then his adjustment will be fine and hesitant. But as Ye Qiu guessed, if he wants to attack, he has to spend some brains. In the end, he made a substitution that Ye Qiu found difficult to understand, and replaced Barak with Ashavin.

As Ashavin replaced Barack, Chelsea's tactics turned into 44 Maluda and returned to the left side of the midfield. Asavin played on the right side, Lampard and Essin occupied the middle side of the midfield. Ancelotti obviously wanted to use Ashavin's ability to get the ball, break through and horizontally interspersed to connect Chelsea's midfield offense.

When Ye Qiu saw this substitution on the sidelines, he felt a little unbelievable because he didn't understand, "Is it really a replacement for Ballak?" He felt that this was more like a piece of pie falling from the sky, hitting his head, and he was still dizzy now.

"It's indeed a replacement for Balac." Mauro Tasotti also felt that this time the substitution was a bit strange.

Barack is very important in Chelsea's right defense. If Barack hadn't been Barack, Ferreira would have been eaten by Ribery long ago, but now Ancelotti wants to replace Barack instead of Ferreira. What's the reason for this?

During the intermission, Ye Qiu was still reminding David Silva to pull Barak away, but the effect was not very good. But now it's better, you don't have to bother, they have replaced it on their own initiative.

Perhaps Ancelotti has the idea of ​​using offense instead of defense, hoping to play the offensive threat of Ashavin to curb Tottenham's left-wing offense, but the question is, whose advantage and initiative lies in now?

When Ye Qiu saw Chelsea substitution, he immediately walked to the sidelines and waved to the players, especially Ribery, Marcelo, David Silva and Falcao, asking Tottenham Hotspur's offense to immediately lean left, because Ashavin had no way to give Ferreira a defensive protection similar to Barack, and his interception ability was not good.

In other words, the previous balance between offense and defense changed due to Barack's fate and Ashawen's appearance. After it was broken, Chelsea failed to find an effective way to curb Tottenham's attack from the left.

Of course, there is another possibility that Ancelotti deliberately lured Tottenham Hotspur to attack his right side, which is a trap, but this trap is equivalent to harming himself first and then the enemy. How powerful can it be?

In the same situation and the same choice, Ye Qiu may choose another way, that is, continue to trust Barak, let him play the midfielder, Essin play the right back, take Ferreira, and let Ashavin come up and play the right side.

Of course, no one knows what Ancelotti's choice was for. It might be that Barack was not physically fit, or that he was injured, or that, but in short, Ye Qiu could be 100% sure that he would regret taking Barack.

In a football game, players are always the ones who have the deepest and most direct feelings about the situation of the game, even surpassing the head coach.

In Fabregas's eyes, the most painful thing about a football game is the stalemate, because during the stalemate time, you have no confidence at all. You can only keep working hard, running, and fighting. Everything you do is to gain more and more chips for yourself.

In this process of constantly fighting and never knowing when it will end, your physical energy will be consumed continuously, your body will become more and more tired, and you will even feel a war-weary mood, which requires you to overcome your own emotions well.

The dialogue between strong teams is always accompanied by this stalemate confrontation and this war of attrition. As Tottenham Hotspur, in the past few seasons, there have been countless ups and downs and countless key decisive battles, the players in the team have long adapted to the pressure and psychological factors in this strong conversation.

With Barack's fate, the entire stalemate situation was broken. I believe that at this moment, all Tottenham Hotspur players will feel relaxed.

Perhaps many people who don’t understand the reason will find it strange. How come everyone feels relaxed if they just end up alone?

It's like Fabregas, because of Barack's fate, Chelsea's right defense became a problem, so Tottenham Hotspur's offense was always on the left, using the support of Marcelo and Ribery, as well as midfielder David Silva to attack Chelsea's right.

Under such strong offensive pressure, when Tottenham Hotspur constantly creates threatening offensive opportunities, Chelsea had to choose to strengthen defense, and Essin had to frequently pull to the right to make up for Ferreira, because Tottenham Hotspur often creates Ribery one-on-one challenge to Ferreira, and Essin must protect Ferreira.

In other words, what Barak did before now has to be done by Essin.

Then the problem is that Essin is on the right side. In order to maintain the distance between Essin and fill in the protection loopholes in Essin's departure from the back line, he must pull his position to the middle, or even the right side of the middle.

This is called attracting defensive attention.

Fabregas is still standing on the right side of the midfield, which means Chelsea's midfield is on the left side. Lampard is not as close as in the first half, so he feels relaxed. He believes that Messi's pressure must have been much lighter, but because Messi is Tottenham Hotspur's most important scorer, Chelsea dare not be careless about him.

Fabregas noticed the change in the situation, and he also noticed that now is a critical moment, because after Chelsea defeated Ballack, there are pros and cons. The advantage is that if the right side can withstand Tottenham Hotspur's attack and strive to ensure the goal is not lost, Ashavin's appearance can improve the team's attack.

But the downside is that once Tottenham Hotspur breaks the goal, Ashavin's appearance will be a defeat

So Fabregas and his teammates are working hard to attack because they want to seize the opportunity.

Ribery began to be very active on the left and frequently created opportunities. In just less than five minutes, he created at least three threatening opportunities for Messi and Falcao, but he failed to score. However, the offense on the left attracted Chelsea's defensive attention.

So, when Ribery took the ball on the left and noticed that Essin leaned over, he immediately chose to knock back. Marcelo passed it to David Silva, with his back to Chelsea goal. David Silva, who retreated to get the ball, knocked it again, and gave it to Fabregas's feet. Espanyol stopped the ball and faced the goal.

Lampard shook David Silva away, and as he saw Essin was going back to the middle, he rushed to Fabregas.

But Fabregas didn't wait for Lampard to get closer, he was observing the changes ahead. Essin returned to the middle, while Ribery planned to cut the attack on the area between Ferreira and Ales. The position of the Brazilian central defender was a bit outside, and it was obviously shocked by Ribery's previous shocks.

Falcao's running consciousness is very smart. He has been swimming between Alice and Terry, facing away from the goal, and after looking at Fabregas, both of them sparked sparks in an instant. He saw Fabregas rubbing his right foot with one and a half high overhead pass before Lampard, and the landing point was behind Alice.

The smartest thing about Colombia's center is that he ran behind Alex, with his back to the left, facing the right side of the ball, and the position he chose was also very smart. He did not stop the ball at his feet or wanted to grab the header, but instead stopped the ball with his chest.

Terry reacted the moment Falcao ran behind Alex. Because of this defensive lag, he had no choice but to clear the ball in advance, so he could only choose to block it, which was very passive, especially when he found that he had just rushed over and got stuck between Falcao and Cesar in front of the goal, blocking Falcao's shooting angle, the Colombian chose to stop the ball to the right with his chest and landed a little to the left of the penalty spot.

The entire stop not only set the distance between Falkoala and Terry, but also allowed him to avoid Alex's disturbance. More importantly, after his stopping landed, he only needed to take a step forward, step on his left foot, stand firm in the center of gravity, and swing his right foot directly into a shot near the penalty spot.

Although Falcao could not play on the left side of the goal due to Terry's position, he chose to play on the upper right corner of the goal, and he chose a trick shot, and the ball seemed to be controlled by him. He listened to him very much. After kicking out of his feet, he climbed and fell along an arc and drilled into the upper right corner of the goal.

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL”

"Oh my god, in the 78th minute of the second half, Tottenham Hotspur took the lead in scoring, 0

"Ye Qiu's team maintained an advantage for more than an hour, persisted in the offense for more than an hour, and finally broke through Chelsea's goal. We saw that this was a scorn shot from Colombia center and Rodamel Falcao's penalty kick. It was very accurate and almost a blind spot in the absolute sense."

Andy Gray has been amazed at Falcao's shooting ability this season because it is too accurate, especially his use of shooting skills. He rarely sees his mistakes. As long as you create enough opportunities for him, he will repay you with endless goals.

"Rodamel Falcao, he is simply a goal machine. This season, Tottenham Hotspur's trident on the offensive line, Falcao, Messi and Ribery, three players have scored nearly ninety league goals, which is very, very surprising offensive ability."

After scoring the goal, Falcao excitedly rushed out of Chelsea's penalty area, clenched his fists all the way, shouting at the fans in the stands, and Tottenham Hotspur players rushed out of the court and went to the sidelines to celebrate the goal with Falcao.

0 Although this score seems unsafe, in fact, it has almost sentenced Chelsea to death

"Long before the game, when I made the prediction, I once said that Ancelotti made mistakes in many key games, playing against Manchester United and Arsenal. On the one hand, Manchester United did not do their best, and Arsenal was not strong enough, but when playing against Manchester City and Liverpool, Ancelotti made fatal mistakes."

"After the four games against Manchester City, the media criticized Ancelotti's starting tactics one-sidedly. In this game, Ancelotti's starting tactics were not problematic, and there was no problem with the on-site command in the first hour, but the real problem, or the controversial point is his substitution adjustment."

"Of course, Ancelotti's substitution was very brave this time. He replaced Barack who was defending and Ashavin who was attacking. But the question is, will such substitutions produce effects? Or, is there a better choice?"

"We saw that after replacing Barak, Tottenham's left offense was completely activated. This goal from Tottenham Hotspur was actually the left off attack that attracted the attention of defensive players. Fabregas passed the ball to the right side of the midfield with a diagonal pass, and then passed it to the penalty area and looked for Falcao."

"Of course, Fabregas's over-top pass was excellent, with excellent landing points, and Falcao's running and prediction were also very good. The cooperation of the two made this goal, but Chelsea's defense did make a mistake, and it was a big mistake."

The live TV camera was specially given to the sidelines. Unlike Ye Qiu's celebration after Falcao's goal, Ancelotti seemed very depressed on the sidelines with a look of regret. Perhaps he is now regretting his substitution.

No matter what his purpose and starting point are for, or whether his substitutions are proactive or passive, in short, his substitutions have caused Chelsea's defense to be broken and Chelsea's goal conceded.

Perhaps Ancelotti did a pretty good job in the whole game, but this time the substitution was his only defeat in this game and his only mistake.
