Super Marshal

There was a dead silence in the home team's dressing room at Stamford Bridge.

All the players sat quietly in front of their closets, looking at each other with somewhat dull eyes.

Just now, before the end of the first half, Bayern Munich suddenly launched a wave of attacks, causing Chelsea's defensive mistakes. Mikel first made a low-level mistake and passed the ball to Ribery, and then defended A corner kick was missed, and Vidal scored with a header.

Just think about it, how many times has this happened?

Since Christmas, Chelsea has been scored by the opponent's header for countless times.

What exactly is the problem? What's going on?

Everyone knows clearly that the main reason is that the team is too tired due to continuous fighting and lacks an effective rotation mechanism.

But should the coaching staff take the blame?

According to common sense, it should be. If the head coach doesn’t carry it, who will carry it?

But every player present knew very well that coach Rijkaard was actually quite unjust.

Well now, what should I do if I am behind zero to one?

Hearing the door open to the locker room, Rijkaard and Tenkat were seen walking in from the outside. Everyone immediately looked at the coach, and they could easily see from Rijkaard's face. His expression showed his determination at this moment.

"Unfortunately, we conceded a goal late in the first half, which forced us to change our plans at short notice."

Rijkaard looked at the players resolutely and said.

Every player present was not surprised, and even this decision was within their expectations.

As early as before the game, some media broke the news that Chelsea management had issued a kill order. If the team failed to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, Rijkaard would be fired.

It can be said that this news put Rijkaard on the stove.

How can we win if we are one goal behind and don't change our tactics and press out to attack?

Especially this is still at home. If we can't equalize the score, how will we play away in the next round?

"Michael, I'm sorry, we need to make adjustments in the second half." Rijkaard looked at Ballack.

The German midfielder was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would be substituted.

In the first half, his performance was indeed not very good, but at least it was not bad. He just didn't perform very well on the offensive end. Compared to Mikel in the defensive midfielder position, he was already pretty good.

But Ballack knows his own business. He is already 32 years old and has the club's maximum salary, but he has not made enough contributions to the team. It is obvious that he has been included in the list of purgeable players by the club.

"I understand." Barak nodded, stood up, and walked to the washing room at the back, ready to take a shower and change clothes.

A trace of unbearability flashed in Rijkaard's eyes, but there were some things that he couldn't protect himself.

"Andre, you come on in the second half, we go back to 433, we must score Bayern Munich's goal."

Arshavin stood up eagerly and nodded heavily.

The Russians admire Gao Han very much, because it was Gao Han's words that made Mendes decide to bring him to Atletico Madrid, which gave him the opportunity to become famous in one fell swoop.

But now he is wearing a Chelsea jersey and must fight to the death with Gao Han.

On the contrary, Anelka, who was sitting aside, heard that she was in love with Arshavin, not him, and she glanced at Rijkaard with resentment in her eyes.

…………

"Chelsea will not allow us to hold on to this goal lead until the end."

In the visiting team's locker room, Gao Han was also making midfield adjustments.

When he said this, he smiled slightly, "So, we have to try to score a few more."

The sudden turn, combined with Gao Han's tone and expression, made all the players burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was very lively.

"I know Abramovich. He has invested so much money in the past few years. He is always thinking about how to win the Champions League. He has this obsession, so there were rumors before the game that he gave Rijkaard a If we don’t reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, Rijkaard will be fired.”

"As I said before the game, this was about letting Rijkaard dance with heavy shackles, and the goal at the end of the first half gave us enough chips and confidence."

This is why Gao Han did not hesitate to use two skill cards in the last two minutes.

worth!

As long as this goal is in hand, Chelsea will be completely passive.

"I can guarantee that they will take the initiative to attack in the second half, but they may be a little stable at the beginning to find their rhythm. Our task is to be patient, let them press out, and then we can counterattack."

Gao Han walked among the players, looking very calm and confident of winning.

"We worked hard to attack in the first half, but the opponents were afraid to come out. Now it's better. The opponents must take the initiative, don't miss the opportunity, and kill them."

After finishing speaking, Gao Han clapped his hands vigorously.

"Okay, time is running out now. Everyone, prepare well and try to score more goals in the second half. The game is over, and I'll invite you to my Chinese restaurant for a meal to celebrate."

When the players heard this, they all jumped for joy.

…………

…………

"The second half restarted and players from both teams returned to the court one after another."

"Judging from the players on both teams, Chelsea made a substitution adjustment and replaced Ballack with Arshavin."

"This should be Rijkaard's adjustment, changing from the 4-4-2 formation in the first half to the 4-3-3 formation commonly used by Chelsea to further strengthen the team's offense."

"It's a normal decision. After all, we are trailing 1-0 at home."

"Looking at Bayern Munich again, Gao Han did not make substitution adjustments. The goal at the last moment of the first half gave Bayern Munich more confidence to deal with their opponents."

The two teams exchanged halves and each set up their formations.

With the referee's whistle, the game started again.

Everyone at Bayern Munich was very clear about Gao Han's instructions and implemented them very well. They did not try to attack after the start, but patiently organized defense in their own half.

But is Bayern Munich going to play a defensive counterattack?

Obviously, no.

When Chelsea passed the ball into Bayern Munich's half for the first time, the players of the Bundesliga giants all pressed forward. Through careful pressing and pressing, Chelsea's pass was in vain and they had to pass back to the defense to find another opportunity. .

But soon, Chelsea got an opportunity.

After Lampard returned to the midline to get the ball, he passed the ball into Bayern Munich's 30-meter area to find Drogba.

The Ivorian did grab the first spot and got stuck in position, but when he stopped the ball, he stopped slightly. Hummels behind him decisively made a clearance, once again defusing Chelsea's attack.

Seeing that there was no chance in the middle, Lampard immediately moved the ball to the wing.

Ashley Cole got the ball from the left and went into the Bayern Munich half. In a one-on-one situation, he used his speed to get rid of Modric and passed into the penalty area with his big foot, but no one responded. Neuer was Take off easily.

After the opponent's two attacks, Bayern Munich began to increase its defense and pressing efforts in the midfield and frontcourt.

When playing 4-4-2 in the first half, the four midfielders were able to suppress Bayern Munich's three midfielders to some extent, but now it is three on three. Although Lampard and Essien are both players with excellent running and coverage abilities, But he couldn't stand the continuous fatigue battle, and he fought against Bayern Munich for 45 minutes in the first half, which caused severe physical exhaustion.

"They made many more mistakes in passing and receiving than in the first half." Gao Han got Sergio Garcia's data, took a look at it, and stuffed it into the hands of Thomas Tuchel.

This is the result of a combination of multiple factors, including the impact of formation changes and physical fitness issues.

"Should we seize the opportunity to press?" Thomas Tuchel asked.

In fact, Bayern Munich's own condition is not particularly good, just look at the performance of the players.

If the players of the Bundesliga giant were in good condition, they would have scored at least two or three goals in the first half. However, affected by the false alarm of the hotel fire alarm in the early morning, the players were generally not excited enough, resulting in a greatly reduced performance on the field.

"No need." Gao Han smiled faintly, "Thomas, you have to remember that the most taboo thing about passing and controlling is not not to be unable to grab the ball, but to lose it quickly after grabbing the ball. This not only makes the players' physical energy consumption more serious. , and also severely damaged the players’ morale and morale.”

The reason why Gao Han reused Makelele back then was because he could grab the ball, protect the ball and not lose the ball easily.

The same is true for Bastian Schweinsteiger of Bayern Munich. Gao Han even thought about using the more stable Ram to play as a midfielder, but later gave up due to comprehensive considerations.

Chelsea's current problem is that they make a lot of mistakes in passing and receiving. They have to steal the ball again after losing it, and lose it soon after they steal it.

"Just wait and see." Gao Han smiled confidently.

After the set piece in the first half, this game was already under his control.

Facts have proved that Gao Han's judgment was correct.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Bayern Munich intercepted the ball in the middle. Vidal passed the ball to Modric, who passed it to the frontcourt to Ribery.

After Ribery took the ball and attracted the attention of the defense, he knocked the ball to the left with his heel.

At this time, Marcelo came in from behind as quickly as possible. After receiving the ball, he rushed towards the baseline and passed the ball directly from the left. Aguero, who had been ambushing in the middle, quickly followed up and hit the front line of the small penalty area. He got ahead of Chelsea's two central defenders, pushed and shot, and scored, 2-0!

The entire goal was played very quickly. Chelsea's defense didn't even have time to react before it was torn apart by Bayern Munich's counterattack. By the time they returned to defense, the ball had already been scored.

This goal almost completely destroyed Chelsea.

After that, the Blues tried many times to stop the decline, but Bayern Munich took the opportunity to take control of the game, giving full play to its advantage in passing and controlling, organizing and planning attacks again and again.

Rijkaard quickly made another substitution adjustment, replacing Bosingwa with Belletti who was in a sluggish performance. This was obviously a move to strengthen defense, which made Abramovich and others in the chairman's stand extremely excited. dissatisfied.

Russians even expressed their protest by walking out angrily.

Gao Han also quickly made substitutions, replacing Bastian Schweinsteiger with Toni Kroos.

Later, left back Marcelo was replaced with Badstuber.

When the game reached the 77th minute, Bayern Munich once again launched a sharp counterattack.

After Robben received a long pass from Toni Kroos on the right, he relied on his strong personal ability to get rid of Ashley Cole again. He wanted to cut inside to the edge of the penalty area, but was blocked by Ashley Cole. I was too lazy to hold him down.

The referee undoubtedly gave a yellow card and gave Bayern Munich a set kick opportunity on the right side of the penalty area.

Modric took the free kick and sent a curved pass. Lucio quickly stepped in from the penalty area and grabbed the first spot. He headed the ball towards the goal and once again broke through Chelsea's goal. .

Three to zero!

The game has completely lost its suspense.
