In fact, it is not very difficult for the head coach to observe from the sidelines - it is no better than watching live TV, where you can see various details very intuitively, and it is not even as intuitive as the fans looking down from the stands -
—Because their line of sight is parallel to the court. When watching the game from this angle, of course many parts will be missed. Dick also suffered a lot when he first started coaching the team. After all, he is
Coming from a grassroots background, he had no experience in this area. Fortunately, he adapted quickly.
From this perspective, it is also very difficult to see what you want to see. Football coaches generally have good eyesight. Even if they are short-sighted, they will wear the best glasses.
The two sides are entangled in the midfield. With the current state, both sides are likely to score goals in the next game, and neither side dares to change their defensive strategies easily, otherwise they will be easily defeated by the other side when they change.
Seize the gap.
At this time, shortly after the start of the second half, luck seemed to be on Chelsea's side.
After Lampard received Essien's pass, he quickly passed the ball to Duff on the wing. Duff began to break through from the right, and it was Zanetti who came up to defend him - Zanetti was defensive
Of course it is very good. Whether it is blocking or turning around, it is not easy to break through his defense. Moreover, he has a lot of endurance and can smoothly show his abilities in the game, which is also one of his advantages.
However, Duff is not without his advantages - that is, his speed. Now Duff is at his peak and his speed is very fast. Although Zanetti is also excellent in long-distance running ability, he still cannot achieve explosive power.
Compared with when I was young, I am still thirty-two years old, so I still have to suffer a little loss in terms of explosive power.
So after Duff saw Zanetti approaching, he did not intend to use his extraordinary skills to dodge the opponent. After all, the opponent was rich in experience, and any fake moves would be difficult to hide from the opponent's eyes, and Zanetti
His center of gravity was very stable, and no matter how many fake moves he made, he would not lose his balance, so he used the simplest method, slicing the ball, accelerating, and rushing!
Such a reckless act, which usually seems unwise, worked well at this time, because Chelsea's counterattack was also very good, and Inter Milan also guarded their own areas on the defensive line, and there was no one behind Zanetti to help.
When he saw Duff rushing with the ball like this, Zanetti quickly turned around and wanted to catch up, but was destined to be unable to form any obstacle before Duff passed the ball...
However, Zanetti was not in a hurry. Although he could not block his cross, if Duff wanted to break into the penalty area, he still had time to block it. Although a center like Drogba has the ability to grab points.
Quite strong, but Inter Milan also has a tall defender like Materazzi in the penalty area. The two of them are entangled, and Drogba may not have a chance to succeed.
Just when he saw Duff catching up with the ball, Duff did not choose to pass the ball, but dunked the ball inside. Zanetti immediately accelerated and rushed forward to block Duff's inward cut!
At the same time, Inter Milan's entire defense was retracted. This was a strategy to prevent Duff from actually cutting inside. If Duff did cut inside, it would easily cause chaos in the entire penalty area. Strengthen the defense in the penalty area.
The number of people and blocking the opponent's attack is what should be done.
However, just when Zanetti pounced on him, Duff stopped cutting in and instead raised his foot to cross directly!
This cross was passed very quickly, with no arc, and the landing point seemed not very good - however, this half-high ball flew directly to the edge of the penalty area, just as Inter Milan's entire defense line recovered at the same time!
Robben ran horizontally from the sideline, and he threw away Cordoba during the sprint. At this time, Mascherano also noticed something was wrong. He began to move laterally to block Robben's grab, but he was still slow.
One step forward!
When Cordoba and Mascherano were about to form a double attack, Robben swung his right foot in front of the penalty area at the top of the arc, then swung his right foot at the top of the arc, then leaned forward and shot immediately!
As soon as the ball was shot, Cordoba and Mascherano's feet arrived - if he stopped the ball, Cordoba and Mascherano would definitely block it!
It is very difficult to shoot directly without stopping the ball in the air, and there are many people on both sides in the penalty area. However, this shot flew diagonally into the penalty area, flew in front of Materazzi, and then passed from
Cesar, who jumped up hard, passed by his hand and flew directly into the gate of Inter Milan by grazing the far post!
Such a sideways volley shot actually bypassed the numerous figures in the penalty area, and then flew into the door from the blind corner!
"The goal went in! Robben's shot was really... You could say he was messing around, but he went in... I can only say that this goal was so wonderful and so lucky. Even if it was him, he wouldn't be able to do it..."
Being able to score such a goal again! Chelsea equalized the score! This is a huge blow to Inter Milan! Do they want to continue like this now? You must know that they are not leading now, and their previous offense was
Chelsea's defensive performance is not very good..."
All the Chelsea fans were refreshed, and now the score was a draw - to be honest, they were not dissatisfied with getting a draw in the away game, and this time it was really a draw, which undoubtedly meant that it would be a draw next time.
Chelsea will be able to take more advantage. They have a good defense to begin with. If they defend well and wait for opportunities to counterattack, they can at least get a draw. If they are lucky, they can succeed in the sneak attack and defeat Inter Milan in the away game.
It’s not too difficult!
Chelsea's performance last season has given them endless confidence. Their loss to Liverpool in the semi-finals only made them even more unconvinced. This season, they will once again launch an attack on the Champions League championship, and Inter Milan also wants to win the Champions League.
The first person to be stepped on! At this point, their thinking is no different from Inter Milan.
They now admit that Inter Milan is indeed very strong offensively, but compared with Chelsea, Inter Milan is still a little behind!
Dick shook his head. There was really nothing he could do about this goal, and no player made a mistake, but the opponent just scored: "Robben, this guy is really a sharp knife, he can score such a goal..."
"
After sighing, Dick stood up, and then made a calm gesture to the court. Judging from the current situation, Chelsea has undergone some changes compared with the first half, but the changes are mainly reflected in
There are still no changes in offense and defense, so your tactical arrangements are still effective. At this time, it is not time to worry.
The players of Inter Milan also understand this very well. Such a conceding goal is not enough to make them shaken, but it will only make them unconvinced!
After the restart, Inter Milan immediately launched an attack, and Chelsea also began to defend step by step. Mourinho did not think about throwing away what his team is best at in this game and using defense to counter the opponent's offense.
, is what they are best at. Although Inter Milan also controls their counterattack very well, their outstanding character has brought such a goal. Of course, they must make good use of it next!
Chelsea's steel midfielder was still blocking, but Inter Milan was not in a hurry to attack, but continued to pass the ball, looking for gaps in the defense, showing enough patience.
Mourinho also nodded secretly. Dick's training of Inter Milan has been very effective. At least this mentality is completely different from before. Inter Milan has never been so calm before.
Sneijder and Figo continued to organize in the midfield, and Adriano also began to constantly drop back to get the ball and break through. This also began to put more pressure on Chelsea's central defense, and Figo also started to attack from time to time.
The attack from the wing and Perrotta's roaming on the wing also frightened Chelsea's wing to be unable to provide good support to the center. Inter Milan's offense gradually became smoother.
Mourinho naturally observed this. Although Essien and Makelele are strong, they are still a bit weak in the face of the successive attacks of Sneijder, Figo, and Adriano. After Lampard returned to defense,
Mascherano stepped forward forcefully and continued to exert strong pressure on Chelsea's center.
Mourinho began to feel that something was not good. Inter Milan's attacks in the center were becoming more and more fierce. Could it be that Dick was just attacking the center? This is not surprising. After all, Inter Milan has been paying more attention to the attack in the center.
, now their midfield attackers have various characteristics, they can shoot suddenly, pass and cooperate. If they keep playing like this, Makelele and Essien will also consume a lot of physical energy. Essien is okay.
, this guy can run like a buffalo, and Makelele is not young, so he may not be able to withstand it, and Makelele is the most important link in Chelsea's defense. If Makelele ends the game due to physical reasons
, can Chelsea's defense still maintain such an iron-clad defense?
After thinking for a while, Mourinho finally made a decision. He instructed Carvalho to push into the midfield to help defend, while Gallas returned to the penalty area to help defend. This was something that could not be helped.
La has good physical fitness, and there is no problem in filling up positions in the middle and on the wing, as long as he does not make mistakes...
The players of Inter Milan felt the changes in Chelsea immediately - this gave them more confidence. Sure enough, under our attack in the center, Chelsea began to relax the defense on the wing. This is the leader in the center.
What I said during the break!
Next, what we have to do is to find opportunities to score the winning goal!
Dick looked at his watch. Chelsea equalized the score in the 55th minute, and it was already 70 minutes now. Mourinho was indeed very calm. If Inter Milan hadn't revealed his intentions before,
If he had the intention of playing on the wing, he probably wouldn't have made such a decision!
Now, it depends on how the players on the field seize the opportunity!
Inter Milan's players did not disappoint.
In the 73rd minute, Sneijder's forward thrust attracted the opponent's attention. As he advanced, Mascherano was filling in behind him, and Adriano was in front of him to support him.
Ta also came to the middle to support him. Under such circumstances, Figo quietly changed his position to the side...
After attracting enough attention, Sneijder sent a beautiful medium and long pass of 15 meters. The ball fell accurately to Figo's feet. Figo received the ball on the wing and began to break through in one go!
Gala hurriedly came up to defend him, but Figo sent a beautiful curve ball before he came up. Toni took off in the middle and attracted the attention of Terry and Carvalho. Adriano came in from the back row to meet him.
The ball landed and he swung his left foot and shot it with such force that Cech had no reaction at all!
