However, when the smiling Scolari watched the game on the field for a while, he suddenly realized that it seemed that this game was not as simple as he thought before?
I called the assistant on the side and quickly glanced at the detailed technical statistics of the first 15 minutes of the game. There was nothing else. When Scolari saw the ball possession rate, he was stunned.
Reaching out to grab the assistant who was trying to "escape", Scolari asked with some uncertainty, "Jim, are you sure the technical statistics you gave me are correct?"
After getting the technical statistics from his assistant, who was responsible for recording these data, Jim had not read the above content. Therefore, when he heard Scolari's somewhat dissatisfied inquiry, he did not dare to talk nonsense.
Jim had no choice but to tell the truth, "I don't know. I just took it from Rank and haven't had time to look at it yet. However, I believe you, coach, also know that Rank's usual style of data maniac, you said there may be others."
Possibly, but in terms of data, things within his professional field should be correct!"
After Jim reminded him, Scolari also realized that the question he asked before was a bit unreasonable. At the same time, Scolari was even more fortunate that the person who just handed him the data was Jim, not that crazy Rank.
, Otherwise, just because of his sincere question, there might be a big disturbance.
Since Rank is responsible for recording and statistics of the data, this data is authoritative and does not require any further proofreading. Waving his hand and asking Jim to leave, Scolari looked at the court, gradually lost in thought.
At this point in this game, the scene where Scolari expected Chelsea to go on a killing spree and beat Crystal Palace did not appear.
Moreover, it is no longer a problem that Chelsea has not opened the door to victory. Just now, while watching the game, Scolari had a vague feeling that it seemed that Chelsea was suppressed by Crystal Palace in today's scene even though it was at home.
!But at the time, Scolari thought it was his misunderstanding and didn’t take it too seriously.[
However, as the game continued, and after constantly improving their new tactics in actual combat, Crystal Palace's advantages on the court were revealed to the world bit by bit. Coupled with the statistics sent by Rank,
Inside, the inconspicuous Crystal Palace actually got 58% of the ball possession rate, 16% more than Chelsea. I wonder, Scolari really needs to study carefully what happened to Crystal Palace today.
By the way, as the game progressed, not only because of the new tactics becoming more and more proficient, but also because Yue Ki became more and more confident. In the last 5 minutes, Crystal Palace came close to turning the game into a half-time.
Offensive and defensive drills!
No, before the words were finished, Chelsea once again showed everyone that it is difficult to even think about half the game!
It was finally intercepted, but instead of clearing Crystal Palace's attack, the ball failed to reach the feet of midfielder Drogba. Chelsea's defenders made another mistake and gave up the ball.
"Huh!" However, the human body is made of flesh, not iron. In addition, today is the day for a trial of this new tactic. I am not used to it. After such a short 10-minute high pressure and the full-court press, Crystal Palace kicked
It's beautiful, but the physical fitness of their midfielders has all reached the critical point early.
It would be remiss not to mention here that physical fitness has reached a critical point, which does not mean that all Crystal Palace players can no longer run after just 20 minutes of playing! I believe everyone who likes sports knows this critical point. To give a simple example, such as
When you run a long-distance race, you will reach a place of 2 or 3 kilometers, and you will feel as if your legs are filled with lead, and you will feel like you want to die. However, as long as you can grit your teeth and endure this most difficult period.
When you are suffering, you will find that the previous fatigue will go away from you.
In a normal football match, the first critical point of this kind of physical fitness usually occurs when the match reaches 35-40 minutes. This also explains very well why some commentators habitually say
, the first 5 minutes and the last 5 minutes of the game are the most likely times to lose the ball. The first 5 minutes are because the game has just started and everyone may not be focused yet, and the next 5 minutes refer to the critical point of physical fitness!
Closer to home, the Crystal Palace team paid double or even 1 or 5 times more than Chelsea in the previous 10 minutes of the game. They fought frantically for the whole game at the risk of their lives. Although they had built up their own momentum, but then,
At this time, the physical energy they had reserved was exhausted in advance.
Feeling something strange in his body, he stopped playing for a moment and thought about it. Modric quickly figured out the problem.
Stopping the ball pretended to be confronting the Chelsea defenders, but in reality he was racing against time to recover. Before the Chelsea defenders on the weak side could not bear the loneliness and planned to double-team, Modric pretended to see a bad opportunity to attack.
Even after 10 minutes of pressure, the ball was passed back to their own half as if to slow down the pace of the game.
It's a pity that the players in the midfield and frontcourt suddenly had physical problems so early. Crystal Palace's two central defenders, Lescott and Vincent Kompany, didn't know about it. And in order to prevent Chelsea from seeing the flaw, Modric led the team.
The midfielders did not dare and did not have time to inform them. Therefore, it is not surprising that there will be coordination errors on the Crystal Palace side!
Seeing Modric's actions and feeling their physical condition, several Crystal Palace midfielders couldn't help but give Modric a thumbs up in their hearts.
However, just when Modric and others were appropriately recycling and preparing to slow down the tempo on the court, Yaya Toure, who was acting as a reverse free agent, made a "disharmonious" sound at this time.[
After receiving a pass from Vincent Kompany nearby, Yaya Toure didn't even think about it. He looked up at the left wing where Bell was and found that there was a medium-sized gap on Bell's side. He raised his leg and hit the ball.
Got out.
Yaya Toure's long pass is actually very beautiful in terms of timing, and the gap he finds is also very accurate. If Van Bell can intervene in time and win the ball, it is impossible to say that it is really possible to create a good offense for Crystal Palace.
Opportunity. This is a glimpse of the subtleties of Friedman's reverse retro libero tactics.
Unfortunately, what was mentioned above is the most ideal state. Now, it is obvious that Bell is not in the state described above.
Seeing Modric passing the ball back to the defense, and quietly making a steady gesture to himself and others, although this game did not last long, he had already sprinted back and forth several times, and his physical energy was very exhausted.
The big Bell was naturally happy and happy, and he was ready to follow the team's front line and collect it together.
Who would have thought that just after Bell took a few steps towards the backcourt, Yaya Toure actually chose this time to pass the ball long?
Bell didn't expect that when the ball came close, Bell was thinking about his reaction. As soon as he turned around, he realized that Terry had already been like a hen guarding his calf, baring his teeth and claws to block all his attempts to run towards the ball's landing spot.
route.
Fortunately, we are in the frontcourt now. It doesn't matter if the offense makes occasional mistakes. Thinking of this, Bell did not take this mistake too seriously. He even had time to turn back to Yaya Toure who sent him a pass.
, gave his thumbs up to indicate that the opponent passed the ball well...
