Football’s First Defender

The game has progressed so far, although there are still more than 20 minutes of game time, but they are behind by two goals. For Chelsea, who are not so good on the offensive end this season, it is difficult to recover the score.

Especially in the Liverpool lineup, there is also Yang Feng who knows Chelsea players and offensive routines.

Regarding Chelsea's current offensive tactics, although each coach will have different offensive tactics, in the final analysis, the players are still needed to implement the tactics.

And the player's personal offense, in the execution of tactical arrangements, will inevitably have their own personal habits.

For coaches, most of the time, their own offensive tactics should actually be off the shelf.

The role of the coach is to integrate the players together so that the players can maximize their individual performance for the team.

The existence of a coach's tactical skills is to demonstrate his ability in two aspects.

One is self-centered.

The coach comes with a system that he is very familiar with, and then after coming to the team, he conducts a large-scale cleaning first, and the players who fit his system stay, and the other players leave.

Then, according to your own tactical requirements, select football players who have already played in style and are suitable for your own tactical system.

Focus on the self-system, not the will of the players.

The second is that the coaches themselves have profound tactical skills and have extremely powerful tactical deployment capabilities.

It can be based on the existing foundation of the team, with the players as the framework, to fill in the tactics.

Redesign the tactics that are most suitable for the current players, and use the existing players as the main body to arrange the team's tactical system.

And most coaches who take over the team halfway can only make some limited adjustments based on the team lineup at hand. Because the team's own plate is too big, the team cannot make large-scale personnel changes.

As for the Chelsea team, although Di Matteo is relatively young in the field of coaching, and his own tactical attainments may not be so profound, but when he takes over halfway and Chelsea's own player level is at the top of Europe, Di Matteo The changes for Chelsea can only be limited to some tinkering.

As far as offensive tactics are concerned, although it is not to say that the tactical system of several previous coaches is completely followed, it is unrealistic for Di Matteo to carry out drastic reforms in the existing offensive player reserve.

If there is any change in Di Matteo, it is to firmly bind Drogba, Torres, Malouda, and Lampard on the offensive end. As long as there are no injuries or other factors, these four It is Chelsea's most stable firepower.

As for the real offensive end of the game, it is not too realistic for Chelsea to rely on these four players who do not have the strong breakthrough ability to tear apart the opponent's defense to complete their personal offense.

The real offensive advancement must still require the participation of full-backs.

Aiming at the offensive characteristics of Ashley Cole and Ivanovic, the two old teammates, and the possible problems when returning to defense, Yang Feng helped Liverpool complete the intelligence work from the perspective of Chelsea's main defense in the past .

These are all players who have formed playing habits after a long period of professional league accumulation. This does not mean that they can be easily changed if they want to change.

With Yang Feng's important reminder, Liverpool's side defenders can always choose the right solution when they encounter some defensive choices, which greatly increases the success rate of Liverpool's defense in the first place.

Chelsea's counterattack when they were behind by two goals was not insignificant. After all, it involved the FA Cup championship trophy. Even if they were two goals behind, the Chelsea players still wanted to try and rely on offense to get back.

However, Liverpool's defense continued to insist on its own shrinking defensive system, and with the excellent defensive performance of the wing defenders, it was not an easy task for Chelsea to complete the cross from the wing.

Chelsea, who is restrained everywhere, always feels a sense of stagnation when they enter Liverpool's 30-meter danger zone on the offensive end.

At this time, although a midfielder like Lampard wants to rely on long shots to try to contribute to the team.

But now there is only one Lampard with long-range shooting ability in the middle of Chelsea. For Liverpool's defensive players in the middle, it is still possible to limit one player.

After Lampard tried a long-range shot and failed, it is not so easy to find another easy long-range shot.

Especially in the case of Liverpool's personnel adjustments, with the departure of High Point Carroll, Liverpool further piled up players who can run in the midfield for defense.

Although they have the advantage of two goals, the Liverpool players are extremely active. Everyone also values ​​this championship very much.

By actively running and pressing, with all the personnel retreating to the half, the offense Chelsea wanted to launch failed every time.

what to do?

Di Matteo didn't know how to change the situation on the field.

Drogba looked at Yang Feng who was defending him, and this former little Chinese brother had nothing to do.

And Torres, looking at the players in red around him, looking at the dancing red in the stands, listening to the once familiar battle song, has mixed feelings.

"Did you make the wrong decision?"

I chose to escape from Liverpool at the beginning because in my eyes, Liverpool has no possibility of impacting honor, and there is even no future that I can see.

However, now, in just one and a half seasons, with the addition of several new aids, Liverpool is undergoing obvious changes, and the team's strength is increasing day by day.

The veterans are getting stronger and stronger, the young players are growing rapidly, and the overall atmosphere of the team is visible to the naked eye.

It's very different from this Chelsea team.

Torres is like a mirror in his heart. The upper limit of the Chelsea team is still high, but the veterans are hindered by the game state and the lack of hunger for honor, so they began to "challenge the game" to play.

The Champions League reached the final because of the stage of the UEFA Champions League. This is a competition that can rely on a few games to determine the championship, and on this big stage, players will have the initiative to express themselves and prove themselves.

Therefore, Chelsea players can rely on active running, iron-blooded defense, and use defensive counterattacks to step into the Champions League final step by step.

But now, in the case of 2-0 behind, with the big stage of the Champions League final in the future, Torres can see that many of his teammates have shown signs of giving up.

As for Torres himself, in fact, in his heart, he no longer has the desire to win.

"competition is over!"

"With the whistle of the referee, Chelsea, who had no possibility of counterattack at the last moment, was controlled by Liverpool and ended the game."

"2 to 0, Liverpool won the second championship of the season and won the England Cup double, and Chelsea, the loser of this game, they still have a chance to prove themselves on the bigger stage of the Champions League two weeks later! "
