The Ball at Your Feet

"Rafa, seeing Real Madrid and Chelsea now face off in the Champions League, is there a feeling of regret?"

The Champions League final is about to begin, and the La Liga commentary is still carried out by the invited Spanish coaches. And this time, the coach they invited, in addition to the former Real Madrid coach, German Schuster, is also the Liverpool coach, Spaniard Benitez.

Speaking of which these two are Real Madrid coaches, they are a little different in normal times. However, since Real Madrid has entered the finals, it is natural that other coaches will not be disappointed. These two people know Real Madrid enough, and Benitez knows Chelsea again, as an explanation could not be better.

However, as soon as the commentator came up to raise the question, Benitez was quite unable to get off the stage.

Liverpool sold Zhao Yaning and bought Torres in the first year. After the second year, it really started to be nothing. In the league this year, Liverpool fell short again, losing to Manchester United, only to get second in the league, and the Champions League and the FA Cup were out early, and there was no hope. And at this time, watching Zhao Yaning with Real Madrid thriving, from the Champions League Sixteen Lang directly to become one of the strongest teams in the world, such a thing, in the eyes, how can you not feel embarrassed. It was originally his own team, his own glory, but sold people for some nonsense reasons. And the current boss is even more stubborn. After encountering this situation, he was forced to talk about his feelings. Is this forcing Benitez to swear?

"This is the team's choice, and I have nothing to do." Benitez mumbled and turned the topic off. "However, it is a good thing that Real Madrid has become stronger. The focus of this game is mainly to watch How can Real Madrid break Chelsea’s defense. Chelsea’s defense is one of the best teams in the world. They played against Real Madrid, which is actually the toughest thing Real Madrid has to crack down."

"So, do you think Chelsea are strong?"

"Of course." Benitez nodded. "In the first half of the season, Chelsea did not play well. This is related to Carvalho and Essien's serious injuries, and it is also related to the position of the players caused by their wrong signings. Relevant. But in the second half of the season, Deco and Carvalho were abandoned, the Portuguese gang was abandoned, Essien returned, and at the same time the strength of Alex and Chelsea was important. They were not there yet against Liverpool. They are in perfect condition, but they are already very good at both offensive and defensive ends, and when it comes to playing against Barcelona, ​​they are even stronger-although they can't play particularly good football now, but now Chelsea, It is definitely the strongest time in their history."

To say that this team is the strongest Chelsea, in fact, there is still something wrong. After all, in terms of personnel composition, Chelsea is not as good as before.

Chelsea now has no Cech at his peak, only a goalkeeper wearing a helmet. Chelsea now has no defensive line that used to be in the league. Although Ashley Cole and Terry are still there, but in the other two positions, Carvalho is no longer good, and Bosingwa is at the right back. He is also a hard-to-play player, relying on Bosingwa, Alex, Terry and Ashley Cole's defensive line, in fact, compared to the peak period, it is still a lot worse.

Not to mention, the current Chelsea striker, because of the lack of the bilateral combination of Robben and Duff, has begun to become poorly attacked. The current Malouda performance is average, and the frontcourt attack supported by Anelka and Drogba is not efficient.

But this team has more precipitation than before. Now they are in a mood that is no longer the arrogance of the world at first. Lao Tzu is just rich and arrogant. Chelsea is now gradually entering the old age. Their players are still not very good-looking in the honor book. This fact made them a laughing stock, and it also made them think about how to change their playing style to be able to win.

And Hiddink's transformation of them was indeed successful. As the master of the cup and the coach of miracles, Hiddink is still quite in place for tactical research. Although the defensive and counterattack style he determined for Chelsea is not pretty, but because he pays more attention to details, it is undeniable that this Chelsea is more difficult than it was in the past.

"The original Chelsea of ​​Mourinho, after all, was not detailed enough in tactics." Benitez also commented on this. "Look at the current Inter Milan to know that Mourinho's football is from It is rough in nature. When there are good players, you can rely on the players to win, but without good players, you don’t know how to attack. This season, he won’t be able to play in Serie A. Under pressure, he is also being Forced to change his coaching philosophy, his tactics have undergone a lot of changes, starting to play 4312 more than 433, this is his improvement, but a bit late. And now Chelsea has also improved, doing in the tactical details It's better, their strength is stronger, and it's a huge threat to Real Madrid."

"I think it doesn't matter." Shuster said, "Real Madrid will not face any threats. With Zhao Yaning, I believe they can win easily."

Benitez looked at Schuster. He didn't understand how a person like Schuster managed to secure his position as a coach. Without a good tactical concept, facing such a big game, instead of analyzing both sides, but blindly trusting an outstanding player-but this is what Zhao Yaning wanted at the beginning?

Now that I think about it, how can I say no regrets?

The game has started. Real Madrid’s formation is still the same as the previous few days. The defense line is Cassie with Ivanovic, Cannavaro, Ramos and Marcelo, and the upper midfielder is composed of It's Xavi Martinez and Yaya Touré. Zhao Yaning is the midfielder, with Ribery on the left, Raul on the right, and Ibrahimovic on the striker.

Even in the finals, Pepe did not start.

On the Chelsea side, Cech is the goalkeeper, Bosingwa, Alex, Terry and Ashley Cole serve as the back line, the midfielder is Ballack, Essien and Lampard, and the left forward Malouda, Anelka is on the right and Drogba is on the forward line.

At the beginning of the game, Zhao Yaning saw it. As expected, Chelsea’s play was not so much a 433 play, as it was a 442 play. Malouda's wing assault is not strong, he has already recovered from the start. And Anelka's style of play is not so much a player at the position of a winger, but rather a reclaimed shadow forward. Relying on Drogba's ability to take the ball, back and make the ball, coupled with more delicate footwork, better shooting skills, and full experience in playing Anelka as a counter, this team's forward The line, compared to before, is indeed an improvement.

In the midfield line, although none of these four players have enough speed and explosive breakthroughs, these four players are tough enough to play the ball. They can complete the midfield interception well, and they can all The ball is sent to the frontcourt. This arrangement, combined with their tactics, is actually more difficult to deal with than a balanced midfielder.

It's just that they also have their fatal weakness: their rhythm is destined to not get up quickly, so the first way to deal with them is to accelerate the rhythm.

Zhao Yaning took the ball, followed the right road, and quickly hit it. Ashin immediately greeted him. He knew that intercepting Zhao Yaning was his biggest task in this game. Zhao Yaning handed the ball to Raul, and then he slant towards the center. Raul immediately turned around to protect the ball, ready to pass the ball. However, Essien clung to Zhao Yaning and refused to give it to Zhao Yaning. Space to catch the ball. Raul took two steps, but Ashley Cole had also rushed over. He knew that it was difficult to take it, so he also kicked the ball into the penalty area with a high kick.

Ibrahimovic and Terry jumped together. Although Terry tried his best, he still couldn't squeeze Ibrahimovic. Ibrahimovic got the ball and kicked the ball towards the center with one kick. Zhao Yaning greeted him. But at the moment he received the ball, Essien slammed into him next to him, making it impossible for him to catch the ball well. When the ball was reached, Ballack had already ran over at this time, grabbed the ball with one kick, and swiped directly toward the frontcourt.

The ball flew straight through the entire half and fell to Drogba's feet. Drogba received the ball with his back, and then turned around in one step, trying to get into the penalty area. However, Ramos behind him watched him stubbornly. Drogba kicked the ball out in desperation. In front of him, Anelka received the ball and he directly picked the ball. , Escaped Cannavaro's defense and rushed into the penalty area.

But at this time, Martinez had also returned. He made a tackle and went directly to Anelka's feet. Anelka jumped up in time, but he also lost the ball. Cannavaro got the ball, he kicked the ball to Marcelo on the flank, offensive and defensive posture, again changed.

"The offensive and defensive between the two sides is very fierce. From the beginning, the two sides have been very active in the fight, and at the same time there are many confrontations between the two sides. But what is more interesting is that in today's game, Zhao Yaning seems to be very tightly defended. Staring at him constantly~www.ltnovel.com~ such a full-court defense seems to be a big trouble for him."

In the last game, Essien almost completely paralyzed Barcelona's attack by relying on his own running ability. The English media said that he was worth a half man alone, but it was not all boasting. In this game, his task is to guard Zhao Yaning. Although Zhao Yaning has a wide range of activities, strong ball ability, and good antagonism, it is recognized that Essien is not bad in these aspects. He is considered to be the best person in the world to guard against Zhao Yaning, not without It makes sense that Zhao Yaning hated meeting him the most in the past. Now, Essien, who has exploded in this season, is Zhao Yaning's most terrifying opponent.

"Yes, theoretically speaking, Essien really guarded Zhao Yaning. Zhao Yaning received the ball, got the ball, and got the ball more troublesome. This made Real Madrid's offense temporarily put on hold." Bennett Si watched the game, but saw what was wrong, "However, on the other hand-Zhao Yaning completely contained Essien by running on his own. And if Essien can't complete a large-scale raid, As well as the task of assault, only Zhao Yaning can be guarded. Then, how can Chelsea talk about winning this game?"

"What's more," Shuster interjected, "how can he prevent Zhao Yaning?"
