It was Chelsea's turn to attack again. The Blues still followed the old routine and used the midfield to suppress their opponents. However, Roma's defensive system was indeed unusual. At least Chelsea's opponents in the Premier League were different. The obstacles they encountered when penetrating made them
Chelsea's offense is always chaotic and difficult to pose a sustained threat.
Today, the core organizer of the Roma team is Aquilani, while De Rossi is a full-time defensive prince. As long as the prince is on the court, he is basically closely guarding, which makes the prince extremely bored.
If there is only one close marker, the prince is not necessarily afraid. He still has the opportunity to rely on his flexible movement to get the ball, but this is not the case when facing De Rossi. The Italian midfielder can be said to be the best offensive and defensive player in world football in recent years.
He is a balanced midfielder. Whether it is offense or defense, he can make a great contribution to the team in the beginning. When he is marking the prince, whether it is his experience or his strong body, the prince cannot take any advantage.
The advantages.
Deco saw signs that the prince was being looked down upon. As a commander on the field, he needed to understand the situation and respond accordingly, so their eyes crossed, and the prince understood and pulled him to the side.
This is a very good solution. When the prince reaches the wing, if De Rossi follows him to defend the wing, when there is obvious space in the center, Joe Cole and Lampard will cut inside and attack the center to score points.
A good opportunity; and if De Rossi does not follow up and defends, and just hands the prince to the wide players, then the prince can play freely, which is his strength.
De Rossi was obviously taken aback when he saw this situation. He was stunned for a while. He still did not follow him. After all, the wing was not as threatening as the center. He thought that if the prince was on the wing, there was no need to continue to defend.
He soon regretted it.
Deco found that De Rossi was not following and immediately moved to the prince's side. After the prince received the ball, only Sicinho's defense was in front of him.
The prince moved his feet lightly, and moved the ball to the left with the outside of the instep of his left foot. At the moment of the move, the ball was lifted off the ground, and he quickly buckled the ball in front of him with the inside of the instep of his left foot, completing it twice in a row with the inside and outside of the instep.
The line change and the quick change of center of gravity allowed Cicinho to go straight to the wing, leaving the space for the inside cut completely to the prince.
The unique skill that Prince used to flick the cow's tail made all the fans in the audience exclaim. Prince is a right-footed player, but now his left foot can also perform perfect movements similar to playing the violin. This is really amazing.
Amazed.
The prince continues to dribble the ball laterally and will immediately enter the dangerous area, where shooting or passing the ball can pose a huge threat to the Roma team.
But just when he was planning his next move, he suddenly felt a pain in his foot, and then a huge force was used to bring him down.
The referee's whistle sounded decisively.
It turned out that Vucinich was not angry with the prince for stealing the ball just now. When he saw the prince breaking through on the wing, he ran thousands of miles and rushed to the prince's side. When the prince was about to take off, he also made a sliding tackle and shoveled the ball away.
However, unlike Prince's neat use of skills, although Vucinic's tackle also scooped the ball away, it was brought to Prince's feet first.
"Sir, this is a good ball. I touched the ball first!" Vucinic got up and argued with the referee. In order to save face, he did not want his tackle to be a foul.
"I see it clearly. Don't bother me anymore. Your action is already worth a card. I thought you already had a yellow card, so I let you go. If you continue to mess with me, you'll be fine."
I don’t mind letting you off the field directly.” The referee didn’t accept this trick at all and said expressionlessly.
Vucinich stopped talking, turned his head and muttered, not knowing what he was cursing.
The referee really wanted to give this ungrateful guy a red card, but considering that the game had just started, if one person was sent off at this time, the Roma team would definitely not give up and cause a lot of trouble after the game. Think about it
Forget it.
With the help of his teammates, the prince stood up and patted the dust on his butt, as if he was not injured. When he saw Vucinic's eyes burning with anger, he deliberately shrugged his shoulders, clearly showing his provocation.
This is a very well-positioned free kick. It is not too far from the goal and the angle is right. If you grasp it well, it is another scoring opportunity.
However, the prince doesn't really want to take the penalty. His free kick shooting rate has been gradually declining. From the initial scoring rate of close to 100% to at least half of it hitting the goal frame now, it should be the limitation of the system. Of course, now
The hit rate has stabilized. Basically, three free kicks can be exchanged for one goal. He is also considered the top free kick player. You must know that other people who are also free kick masters can have close to 20%.
Just thank God for the scoring rate.
However, as Scolari's designated first free-kick taker and the trust of his teammates, the prince should not be too pretentious.
But the prince's luck seemed to be good today. Perhaps his anger disturbed the magnetic field around him, and his falling ball quickly fell over the wall, past Doni, and went straight into the goal.
In the 12th minute of the first half, Prince's free kick changed the score to 2:0.
After scoring the goal, the prince seemed to be venting his anger and rushed directly to the sideline camera and shouted something loudly. However, the fans in front of the TV couldn't hear what he was shouting, and they couldn't tell from the shape of his mouth. They didn't
I know what shocking words the prince will say when he is excited.
Of course, the prince shouted in Chinese.
"sb, roll as far as you want!"
The prince was scolding Vucinich who had started the fight, but scolding his opponent directly would cause a war, so the prince could only choose this way to vent his anger.
Vucinich knew that the prince must be scolding him in front of the camera, as if telepathically, his face was ashen, and he looked like his parents were dead.
His two mistakes directly led to two goals conceded by the team. Now his teammates look at him like a god of plague, with alienation and blame in their eyes.
After venting, the prince felt much more relaxed. He stood up and came to the sidelines to greet the fans, which attracted more cheers.
Return to the field, clap with your teammates, and prepare to continue the game.
"Teach me a free kick. Every time I see your cool free kicks, I am jealous. Are you stingy and don't teach me?" Drogba said.
"Well, if you have that kind of skill, you might as well practice your little skills, Comrade Rough Brother!" The prince ruthlessly poked the elephant king's pain point again. Drogba muttered something, and the prince vaguely seemed to hear something.
"Don't lift", his head is full of black lines.
The Roma team is very tenacious. If it were an ordinary team, they might not have any hope for the game if they fell behind by two goals in an away game. However, the Roma team still played a disciplined game, actively defending and actively counterattacking. There was no defeat scene that Chelsea fans expected.
Appear.
It is difficult for a frontal attack to break through Roma's chain defense. After scoring a goal, Prince seemed to have lost the desire to score. After getting the ball, he tended to distribute the ball and leave it to his teammates to shoot, especially Drogba.
, this guy got a lot of opportunities.
Deco thought more about it. He understood that there was not much time to attack. Maybe Scolari would ask the team to defend more in the second half. After the attack in the first half, Roma would definitely make a crazy counterattack after adjusting in the second half.
Deco pulled Lampard over, and the two murmured for a while, not knowing what they discussed.
Next, we saw Lampard appear more in the middle, while Deco was slightly behind, giving the space to Lampard to attack the opponent's position.
The prince understood the Portuguese's plan at a glance, so he moved to the wing with understanding. De Rossi followed suit and moved to the wing. The gap in the middle suddenly widened a lot.
Deco's position is just in front of the back line. It is easier for him to observe the dynamics on the field. He frequently reverses his feet and suddenly drives forward with the ball. Aquilani's defense is only symbolic but not practical.
Deco passed directly through continuously.
Seeing the threat, De Rossi immediately returned to the center to cover the defense. If Deco faced the back line, it would be a big trouble. But when his defense was just in place, the football had already appeared at the feet of the prince on the wing.
Catch him off guard.
The prince rushed forward with the ball, and the ball passed through the full-back Riise's pressing and was already close to the penalty area.
Panucci had no choice but to press forward, but Mexes was still in the penalty area and was unable to get away from Drogba, so Lampard, who came in from behind, leaked out.
He did not disappoint his teammates. The ball accurately appeared at the feet of the moving Lampard. Prince's pass was so perfect that the Blues deputy didn't even need to adjust to shoot directly.
Lampard put on his signature long-range shot again, and the ball flew out like an atomic bomb. As if traveling through time and space, it crossed the plane of Roma goalkeeper Doni and appeared directly in the goal.
On the net, the ball has not fallen for a long time, and the remaining energy is still there.
It's 3:0. The first half has just gone by. Chelsea, who are playing at home, have started the massacre mode like wolves and tigers. It is obvious that the Roma team is not at a disadvantage on the scene, but the score shown on the scoreboard seems so...
of cruelty.
The fans at the scene were almost climaxing, but Lampard did not appear too excited. He just hugged the prince who assisted him, and then slowly walked back to the half-court, applauding the fans along the way.
It was as if he had just completed an ordinary shot.
There seems to be no suspense now in the game, and Scolari is feeling relaxed. As long as Roma doesn't turn into a superman in the second half, it doesn't matter even if they score one or two, just take all three points.
The prince was very happy when he saw Vucinich's angry look. This was not because the prince had a dark heart. This kind of person needs to be taught a lesson, otherwise, he would never know how annoying he is.
