However, when Bale turned back and was still communicating with Yaya Toure, he did not notice, or in other words, he ignored that this time point happened to be a critical moment for Crystal Palace to change tactics. Just now Yaya Toure said
Even if he can't catch the pass, he will never give up.
Why do you say that?
First of all, as mentioned more than once before, Friedman's new tactical content is that the two full-backs must press forward collectively. Take this offense as an example. As the team's left-back, Saba
At this moment, Leta is actually still in front of Bell, closer to the opponent's goal. This has to be said to be a risk.
Of course, taking risks is taking risks. Friedman also took corresponding risk aversion for this kind of risk. The method he adopted was Guardiola’s 6-second concept. Therefore, in the past period, Crystal Palace’s defense
There were no mistakes!
Even after Modric made a steady gesture, as long as Bale was a little more alert and blocked Chelsea's quick counterattack, Zabaleta and Glen Johnson had enough time to retreat.
At this time, after Crystal Palace has repaired its front line, it will be difficult for Crystal Palace's offense to achieve any decent results. This has been fully proved in the first 10 minutes of the game!
Unfortunately, the bad thing about Bell this time is that he took it too much for granted! Moreover, I don’t know if it was because Friedman moved to the midfield this season, so Bell gradually forgot that he was once a player.
The full-back’s sense of crisis!
No joke, if this ball had been played last season, when Bell was still playing as a full-back, even if it was due to other reasons, such as a problem with Yaya Toure's footwork, resulting in a mistake, Bell would definitely have missed it.
In the first place, through those small but absolutely practical defensive actions, not to mention directly grabbing the ball back, at least Chelsea's counterattack could be aborted!
Unfortunately, the above are all assumptions, but the real situation is that after Bell saw the ball being taken away by a Chelsea player, Bell calmly took a walk on the court for a while! [
When he found out that the ball was kicked into the frontcourt by Joe Cole, it happened to find Drogba on the striker. At this time, Bell wanted to make any remedy, but it was already too late!
Several flowers bloom, one on each side,
On Bale's side, he found that Chelsea played the simplest and fastest long-pass counterattack, and he felt depressed. Let alone him, he focused on the Crystal Palace half. At this time, Drogba was engaged in a very interesting game.
Unique, wrestling activity!
Wait, isn't this a football match? What does it have to do with wrestling?
Drogba came to tell you that there is, and it must be!
By the way, Joe Cole's pass in the backcourt just now was not very good at all. Moreover, Friedman's reverse free agent play was even more effective at this time. With Yaya Toure on the ball,
When the team attacked, although the two central defenders on the Crystal Palace side stepped forward to assist, the Crystal Palace defense still stayed behind with three defenders lined up in a row.
Take this Chelsea counterattack as an example!
Joe Cole's long pass was swift, but when the ball reached the Crystal Palace half, Yaya Toure and Vincent Kompany, who moved at the right time, had already double-teamed Drogba.
Blocked behind him.
However, after gaining the defensive position advantage, Kompany and Yaya Toure still made a move that was not a mistake but was very unsatisfactory.
On the way back to defense, he looked back at the flight trajectory of the ball, and after calculating the approximate landing point, for the sake of safety, while slightly slowing down his forward pace, Yaya Toure and Kompany waited to close the door.
Just lock Drogba behind them, and when the time comes, they will have no problem handling the ball however they want!
Well, it is indeed a good choice for two defenders to deal with one offensive player and defend behind closed doors. Therefore, as mentioned above, the choice of Yaya Toure and Kompany is not wrong!
However, making the right choice does not mean that good results will be achieved on the field. What's more, after making the choice, they were a little stupid and slowed down their speed!
Originally, Drogba was less than one meter behind the two of them. You slowed down, trying to find the rhythm of closing the door. Drogba was alone, and he didn't need to think about cooperation or lack of cooperation. Will he slow down?
?Obviously, no!
Therefore, it is not difficult to predict the next development of events on the field!
Almost a few tenths of a second before Yaya Toure and Kompany closed the door, Drogba, the African beast, thrust directly into the gap between Kompany and Yaya Toure like a barb.
The gap left by wanting to close the door but not completing it.[
Before the door was closed, he was forcefully penetrated by the opponent's player. Originally, this little accident did not mean anything. It was also a big deal on the court. After all, neither Kompany nor Toure was the kind of thin body.
People, coupled with the fact that they took the initiative when closing the door, it can be said that if, if they were not facing Drogba today, then their little negligence before would not be a problem at all. They were beaten by two people.
With such a strong collision from two sides, 99 out of 100 people will feel like they have become meatloaf, and then they will simply fall to the ground.
Unfortunately, what the two of them encountered today was not one of the 99 high-probability events, but a single special event.
Didier Drogba, who has played in the five major leagues, what is his biggest advantage or specialty? Isn't it his body that is comparable to that of Warcraft in the movie?
It is good that Kompany and Yaya Toure are in good health, but that is also good in a relative sense. They are good, but when compared with Drogba, they become very frustrated!
"Bump! Bump!" As two sounds of muscle collision sounded, Drogba, Toure and Kompany completed physical contact.
However, what made the Crystal Palace fans stunned was that after the three people collided almost at the same time, they expected that someone would stagger around. However, the person who had the above problem was not the Drogba they wanted to see.
It's their team members that they extremely don't want to see.
Warcraft alone unreasonably knocked away two defenders. It seemed that he was too brave to stop him. In fact, this incident was a coincidence. It was not Drogba's body. It was really so defiant.
.
If, or if, if, Yaya Toure and Kompany were not so coincidental, and happened to bump into Drogba from both sides at the same time, even if Drogba's body was against the sky, he was hit by someone while traveling at high speed.
A full force collision from the side would cause him to fly several meters away and be knocked to the ground. That was a must!
Unfortunately, there are no what-ifs in real life, so the Crystal Palace failed under the influence of several coincidences at the same time!
Like a crazy monster on the court, "flying" two defenders, after receiving Joe Cole's long pass from the backcourt, Drogba got a once-in-a-lifetime single opportunity.
Facing the attacking Crystal Palace goalkeeper Diego Lopez, African Andy Lau showed off his unparalleled body before, and then showed off his foot skills to the world.
Almost 5 meters away from Diego Lopez, the goalkeeper stopped the ball at the most uncomfortable position, raised his right foot slightly, and made two fake shots. Seeing that Diego Lopez did not fall for his trick,
Choosing to fall to the ground to block, Warcraft seemed to have no choice but to overpower the goalkeeper. However, just after Diego Lopez followed Drogba and ran two steps towards the right side of his body, he suddenly discovered that Drogba
"goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool, Drogba, Warcraft Drogba, in the 25th minute of the first half, on Chelsea's side, Drogba took the lead through the Crystal Palace gate, 1-0, they were ahead!"
After finishing the protracted word "gol" calmly and calmly, jk continued, "I believe everyone has seen the ball just now. Warcraft is worthy of being called Warcraft. His body is really..."
