Chapter 467 Chelsea also wants to play counterattack!It started raining at Stamford Bridge. Jiang Yuan followed Walker out of the player tunnel and could clearly feel the raindrops hitting his hair.
In the locker room, Tuchel specifically emphasized the weather conditions in the second half.
The rain may get heavier in the second half!
Logically speaking, rain will affect both teams, but considering the completely different tactics of the two sides, Chelsea will actually lose by playing in the rain.
In Chelsea's tactics, passing and controlling the ball accounts for a large proportion, and the slippery or even flooded ground on rainy days will affect the passing of the Blues players!
Because of the rain, Tuchel is in a rather nervous state now.
Looking at Manchester United, coach Rangnick's expression was obviously much more relaxed than in the first half.
Everyone knows that rain is helpful to the Red Devils players with rough skills!
"We can see from the current situation on the field that both sides have continued with their formations in the first half. Martial, Fellaini, Lingard, and McTominay from Manchester United have already started warming up!"
"That's right, because we know that rainy days are more suitable for defensive counterattacks. The ball will encounter obstacles when rolling on the ground, so it needs to fly in the sky."
“Although Chelsea’s tactical system includes counter-attack tactics, there is still some gap between their counter-attack and Manchester United’s.”
"The core of Manchester United is counterattack!"
"In Chelsea's attack, Hazard got the ball and started to break through the front court directly. He played very fiercely!"
The rain has just started, so Tuchel specifically reminded the players in the locker room.
While there is no water on the field, hurry up and score the ball.
Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to score a goal!
Hazard ran from the left to the middle, and then signaled Jiang Yuan to come to the middle to support him.
The Blues' two super billion-dollar attackers want to get rid of their opponents who are marking them by crossing their positions!
Having learned from the lessons of the first half of the game, Manchester United's defense was much more stable this time. Bailly and Herrera had a clear division of labor, one followed Jiang Yuan and the other followed Hazard.
Jiang Yuan and Hazard used a little trick when changing positions, which was to keep their bodies as close together as possible.
Two people blocked the space in the middle, and Herrera's movement was restricted.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan suddenly changed direction and ran directly to the right.
?
Hazard made a very steady pass directly to Jiang Yuan, who stretched out his left foot and easily controlled the ball.
Bailey was having a hard time following behind!
The two defensive players of Manchester United thought it was too simple. When two offensive players run together, they can do more than just cross positions.
"wowww!!!"
The fans in the stands are screaming, and now Bailly has completely lost his position!
This is Chelsea's chance!
A great opportunity!
fuck!
Manchester United certainly couldn't let Jiang Yuan hang around alone at the top of the arc. Matic ran over from the backcourt, and the central defender Smalling in the penalty area also ran out directly.
Smalling's approach is dangerous, but he has to do it.
Because if the shooting angle is not blocked, Jiang Yuan might shoot directly!
Without any verbal communication, William went straight into the penalty area from the right bottom line. Jiang Yuan pretended to continue running to the right, but in fact he suddenly sent a straight pass into the penalty area with his right foot.
William!
Stretch your foot to stop the ball!
Then just knock on the door!
"GOOOOO-AAAAAA-LLLLLL!!!"
"The ball is in!"
"William's goal came from Jiang Yuan's assist!"
William quickly turned around and headed towards the right corner flagpole to celebrate. Jiang Yuan and Walker were already waiting for him there.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Rangnick put on the hat on his clothes and his face suddenly looked bad.
This was an extremely delicate passing and movement coordination in Chelsea's midfield and frontcourt. It originated from Hazard's dribbling forward in the middle, and the key point was the tacit cooperation between Hazard and Jiang Yuan.
In this situation, Manchester United has only one solution, which is a dense defensive 5-back system.
When Smalling moved forward to block Jiang Yuan, another central defender stepped forward to block William.
But unfortunately, Manchester United did not have that many defenders in the backcourt today. After Smalling came out, William seized the gap inside.
Was Smalling the wrong choice?
However, this is not the case, as can be seen from the fact that De Gea did not yell at the defender.
In the situation just now, if Smalling had not run away, Jiang Yuan could have shot directly from the top of the arc with his shooting skills.
It's still a goal, but the scorer and the assister are different.
52 '
Willian!
"Pretty!"
At the corner flag, Chelsea players put their hands into William's afro.
They like to rub the hair of the scorer when celebrating, but unfortunately Jiang Yuan's hair is not that comfortable to the touch.
William’s hair is still comfortable!
"Jesus! Stop pulling my hair, ah, fuck!"
Of course, this kind of long hair can be easily pulled out, and it really hurts.
"calm down!"
Rangnick shouted to the players on the field: "We have a chance, just wait a little longer! Just wait a little longer!"
The opportunity that Rangnick mentioned does not actually mean that the players can use tactics to win the game.
He meant to let the players wait a little longer.
When water starts to accumulate on the field in a while, Chelsea's passing and control will definitely not be as smooth as it is now.
When Chelsea lose what they are most proud of, that will be Manchester United's chance to defeat their opponents!
The game continues!
"Come to the Shed and we'll welcome you!"
"Wear your blue and see us through!"
"Sing loud and clear till the game is won!"
"..."
The Blues fans in the stands started to sing hard, but to be honest, the sound of rain hitting the grass was already very loud, and the fans' singing could hardly reach their ears.
Although leading 1:0, Tuchel is now starting to get a little nervous.
He could clearly feel that Manchester United was gaining momentum!
"There's someone behind you!"
William shouted, but it was a little too late. Kante, who had the ball, was double-teamed by Mkhitaryan and Lukaku.
hiss--
Knowing that the situation was not good, Pogba quickly ran over to respond.
Pogba went there with Jiang Yuan, but having more people there doesn’t necessarily mean it’s useful.
Kante was completely trapped, which was an unsolvable dilemma for the French midfielder who was not good at physical confrontation.
Mkhitaryan used his shoulder to hold Kante's hand, and Lukaku kicked the ball to Ashley Young in front.
"Foul!"
Ibrahimovic shouted at the referee, but the referee made a gesture of pulling his hands to the sides.
This is not a foul!
problem occurs!
Chelsea players began to return to defense in large numbers. Jiang Yuan, who was closest to them, followed directly behind Ashley Young. He went directly from the left to the right.
There was no way. Jiang Yuan's position just now was very awkward. If he went back to the left, it would not be of any help to the defense.
On the wing, he was in a one-on-one duel with Ashley Young! Although Ashley Young knew that he couldn't get past Jiang Yuan, he was still quite brave. He dribbled the ball forward and forced Jiang Yuan to retreat.
Looking to the left, I realized that I couldn't move any further back from my current position!
Jiang Yuan took the initiative to slow down his retreat and gradually narrowed the distance between him and Ashley Yang.
Jiang Yuan's intention was very clear. Since the opponent wanted to steal the ball, Ashley Young simply gave up the idea of advancing.
Pass the ball to Herrera in the middle, and Herrera passes it to Matic!
"Manchester United's counterattack was very fast!"
Matic passed the ball straight to Rashford, but because of the accumulated water, the ball suddenly slowed down along the way.
fuck!
Realizing that he had run too far, Hazard quickly turned around, but because he turned too hastily, he lost his balance and fell down.
The Belgian superstar of the Blues was knocked down by the water on the pitch!
Opportunity for Rashford!
Because of the pressing in the frontcourt just now, Rashford is now on the right side of Manchester United!
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
"Pogba is chasing behind!"
"Rashford, fake it, go straight forward!"
"Pogba didn't catch up!"
"Rashford finishes eating Pogba alive!"
Well?
Rangnick on the sidelines stretched his neck.
A classic move of going from the wing to attacking the returning midfielder. This scene can only be seen in the Premier League when Chelsea play.
What's going on with Rashford?
Hypnosis seems to have really worked!
At the end line, Rashford, Valencia and Herrera played a very quick short pass.
With a heel tap to his left foot, Rashford successfully reached the edge of the penalty area.
Try walking the baseline and hitting the angle!
Zouma and Cahill followed closely!
Then make a fake move to shoot with your right foot!
Rashford passes the ball to his left foot!
Because of the water on the field, Rashford's dunk was not in a very good position.
But it doesn’t matter, Rashford is not the only one affected by the waterlogging on the field.
Because of the accumulated water, Zouma and Cahill's turns were slowed down.
Switch to the left foot!
Give it a gentle push!
!!!
Courtois sat down on the ground, which is the fastest way to save the ball.
But it was still a step too late, Rashford's shot went through Courtois's crotch!
"GOOOOO-AAAAAA-LLLLLL!!!"
"Rashford!"
"What a brilliant goal for Macus Rashford!"
Roar! ! !
Rashford turned and rushed towards the corner flag, falling to the ground with his legs one in front of the other.
Swish, swish, swish, swish!
After sliding to your knees, spread your arms!
"Clap clap clap!"
Rangnick remained relatively calm and turned around to applaud Rashford on the field.
In fact, he really wanted to shout a few words to ask Rashford to maintain his previous state, but Rangnick did not dare to do so.
Rashford is now in a state of being possessed by Jiang Yuan. Rangnick dare not shout at him because he is afraid of relieving Rashford of his hypnotic state.
Marcus, now you are the ultimate Premier League attacker worth million euros!
You are Manchester United's winger king!
"Pooh!"
A mouthful of saliva came out of Jiang Yuan's mouth, but before it hit the ground, Jiang Yuan could no longer see his saliva.
The rain is getting heavier!
Damn London!
The director gave a replay of Rashford's goal.
"Well, this is indeed a display of top-level personal ability."
"The score is still 1:1, but I don't know if Rashford can maintain his current form."
"It must be that coach Rangnick said something in the locker room in the midfield. Rashford suddenly made a qualitative leap in the second half!"
Rashford is a player who has a big gap between the first half and the second half. If he scores a goal and performs well in the first half, there will be basically no footage of him in the second half.
Today was an exception. Rashford performed poorly in the first half, but helped the team score an equalizer not long after falling behind in the second half!
[Fuck, how did they tie the game?]
[Rainy days are indeed not suitable for Chelsea. Passing and controlling the ball are completely impossible. Hazard and Kante are directly restricted.]
[Hazard fell, damn, if the trajectory of the ball was normal, Rashford would not have been able to get it]
[The Manchester United prince is still amazing. I feel that his value will exceed 5000 million euros next time he is updated. I can see a little bit of Jiang Yuan’s shadow]
[To be honest, apart from the wing attack just now, Rashford's performance today was mediocre, not worth 5000 million euros]
[I think it’s true. Once you take off your clothes, who knows if you are Rashford or Jiang Yuan (I mean the wave just now)]
[Tuchel doesn't think of a solution quickly, Chelsea will be defeated! ]
Whether it is the Chelsea players on the field, Tuchel in front of the bench, or the Blues players in the stands, everyone is under a lot of pressure now.
It’s not that Manchester United suddenly became stronger, but that both sides were weakened together, and the degree of weakening of Manchester United was slightly less, which led to Manchester United directly becoming stronger than Chelsea!
The situation is not favorable for Chelsea, but Chelsea will definitely not give up this game.
Manchester United is now third in the league, so for them the match against Chelsea is a six-point game, and of course the same is true for Chelsea.
Chelsea is also playing in the 6-point game!
In the 74th minute of the game, Chelsea made their long-awaited substitution.
Terry replaces Zouma!
Although Zouma's overall strength is much stronger than the old captain of the Blues, it is a rainy game today after all. For a player like Zouma who has a very unstable center of gravity, playing in the rain is still a bit too much.
Let Terry, who has more experience in rainy games, come on!
"River!"
Terry shouted to Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan ran over and took a note from Terry.
The note got wet as soon as it was taken out.
But it doesn’t matter, Jiang Yuan has already seen what was written on it.
[Wide the attack line]!
Crumble the note and throw it on the grass.
William also received the note just now, so Tuchel’s meaning is very clear.
His idea was to move Hazard and Pogba forward.
The positions of Hazard and Pogba cannot be moved forward casually, so the two original wingers Jiang Yuan and William need to move to the wing and then give the winger positions to Hazard and Pogba.
This is clearly a counterattack!
Hazard gave Jiang Yuan a thumbs up, and the latter immediately responded with a thumbs up.
"Beep!"
The next ball was passed by Ibrahimovic to Hazard. The moment Ibrahimovic touched the ball, Jiang Yuan and William had already moved to the left flank respectively.
Hazard got the ball and made a long pass directly to Jiang Yuan!
Chelsea is strong not only because of its players and tactical system, but also because its players and coaches are very good at adapting.
Chelsea is also going to play counterattack!
