Football: start copying peak Messi attributes

Chapter 366 Leading at the start, Lin Huang's lightning goal!
The match between Manchester City and Chelsea attracted a large number of news media to report. The pre-match press conference was overcrowded with reporters from all over Europe, even Asia and North America.

Thanks to the inherent advantages of English, the promotion of the Premier League is more convenient and easier than the other four major leagues.

A large number of local reports and commentaries in the UK can be read and watched by fans all over the world without translation and retelling.

It is obviously difficult for other leagues to do this. After all, there are many people who can speak English, but there are relatively fewer people who can speak Spanish, German, French and Italian.

It is also because of this that in the Internet age, the overseas attention of the Premier League has increased. The annual Premier League championship competition can not only affect the hearts of tens of millions of local Premier League fans, but also the hearts of hundreds of millions of overseas viewers.

"Coach Mourinho, I'm a reporter from the Guardian, I want to ask, you criticized Manchester City before, thinking that Manchester City can lose even a team like Middlesbrough, and it is impossible to beat the mighty Chelsea, then you How would you rate your own team's loss to League One in the FA Cup?"

The Guardian reporter's question made Mourinho feel very embarrassed.

Two weeks ago, when Manchester City lost to Middlesbrough in the FA Cup, Mourinho slammed Manchester City and Guardiola mercilessly, thinking that Guardiola could not even deal with a Championship team , obviously overblown.

In other words, Guardiola's coaching style is not suitable for the Premier League at all.

However, a slap in the face happened.

Just the day after Mourinho's harsh words, his Chelsea lost 2:4 to Bradford in the FA Cup.

Bradford is not even a Championship team, it's just a third-tier League One team.

Chelsea, a majestic Premier League giant, was beaten to the ground by a third-tier team and scored 4 goals. Isn't this more embarrassing than Manchester City's loss to Middlesbrough?
The Guardian reporter's question was very sharp, and Mourinho's face changed immediately after hearing the other party's question.

"My team is leading the Premier League, we are on the right track, and people who don't see that are always trying to slam us for minor shortcomings, trying to deny everything we do!"

"I want to tell them that I have led two teams to win the Champions League and four teams to win the league championship. My ability does not need to be judged by you journalists!"

After Mourinho finished speaking, he walked away and no longer accepted follow-up interviews.

There was a lot of boos at the scene, and the reporters were obviously very unhappy with Mourinho's behavior.

But they haven't known Mourinho for a day or two, this guy has always been like this.

Maybe he is in the locker room now, criticizing him from the outside world, questioning his affairs, instilling in the players that the whole world denies them, targeting them, and making them victims!

After Mourinho left, everyone looked at Guardiola in unison.

Guardiola's temper is much better. Apart from refusing to directly comment on Mourinho, he patiently answered questions from reporters.

When the reporter asked about Lin Quan, Guardiola's eyes were as gentle as water:
"For me, Lin Quan means everything!"

A reporter from World Sports News asked inappropriately:
"What about Messi?"

Guardiola's expression suddenly turned into Yao Ming's embarrassing font...

……

In the warm-up session before the game, the players of Manchester City were very relaxed, talking and laughing and performing various warm-up actions on the court.

After Lin Quan and De Bruyne completed a set of warm-up moves such as side sliding steps, cross steps and small steps, the two stopped and looked towards the court.

"It seems that someone is holding a banner with your name over there, isn't it welcoming you?"

De Bruyne was once a Chelsea player. This is the first time he has returned to Stamford Bridge since he moved to Manchester City.

"Have it?"

Hearing Lin Quan's words, De Bruyne subconsciously looked in the direction he pointed.

Then I saw a banner: Chelsea traitors get out of Stamford Bridge!

De Bruyne's face turned black instantly!

Damn it, you shouldn't believe this guy's nonsense, he really is lying.

De Bruyne wanted to catch Lin Quan for revenge, but Lin Quan had expected it. As soon as De Bruyne reached out his hand, he ran away with a smile.

"Haha, I was wrong, I was talking about another one, look, it's over there!"

"Do you think I will still believe your nonsense?"

De Bruyne waved his fists, as if I would loosen your skin for you.

Seeing the spirit of the players so relaxed, Guardiola also breathed a sigh of relief.

Stamford Bridge is the home of the Devils, and this game is not easy to play.

Coupled with the outside hype and Mourinho's psychological warfare, what he worried most before the game was that the players would bear too much psychological pressure, which would affect their game state.

It now appears that this worry is unnecessary.

In this game, Guardiola did not carry out the whole work, but arranged his troops according to the formation and style of play that the Manchester City players were most familiar with before.

Although he has a lot of ideas in his mind, Guardiola still has to suppress his eager heart in this critical game.

Everything will be discussed after the game is over!
However, although it cannot be rectified, it does not mean that Guardiola cannot instill his ideas into the players.

Football has many theories about the division of the stadium area, including the horizontal division of the three offensive and defensive areas, and the vertical division of the five areas of sides, ribs, and middle.

In addition, in recent years, football has further divided the areas of the stadium.

This is the very famous 18th area of ​​the stadium!
According to the division theory of the 14 areas, the most critical thing in the offense is the use of the golden [-]th area.

In defense, the most important thing is the protection of the 5th zone.

However, Guardiola has a different opinion. He feels that this division is still not detailed enough.

If he were to divide the pitch, Guardiola would divide the pitch into 20 areas.

这20个区域中，除掉边路的12个区域，中路的8个区域会被他划分为2个横区和6个纵区。

The two horizontal areas include two goals and the restricted area, and the six vertical areas take the center line as the axis of symmetry.

How to analyze and make good use of the space on the pitch, and how to attack and defend more scientifically and rationally is what Guardiola believes is the development direction of modern football.

He believes that many people will study this work in the future.

It's just that everyone's understanding and ideas are different. Whoever can understand more deeply and make full use of the court space will be able to take the lead in the future.

Obviously, this work will not be completed in a short period of time. Guardiola only has a preliminary idea in his mind now. It may take time to gradually perfect this idea into specific tactics.

Taking this opportunity, in the second half of the season, he can gradually test his tactics in some not-so-critical games to verify his theory.

With Lin Quan fully informed, there is a high probability that his experiments will not overturn... right?

……

At 2 o'clock in the evening on February 1st, Stamford Bridge was brightly lit, and the stadium, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people, was full of seats.

With the whistle of the referee, the focus of the 23rd round of the Premier League officially started.

The formation of the two teams in this game is 4231, it can be seen that they both have ideas for the game.

After the kick-off, Chelsea's players quickly overwhelmed the half-court and rushed towards Manchester City's half-court.

They seem to want to take advantage of the home court and catch Manchester City by surprise.

However, to their disappointment, Manchester City had already prepared for this, and the players in the frontcourt immediately pressed the ball holder, making Chelsea's offense unable to speed up.

And once their ball can't be passed out immediately, after the defensive player is in position, the Chelsea players rushing up from behind will lose the chance to catch the ball.

On the sidelines, Mourinho couldn't help frowning.

Guardiola's formation was a bit beyond his expectations.

It's okay for Manchester City to arrange Fernandinho to start, but they actually hid Kroos and put Fernando in the starting list.

Is this not going to fight positional warfare?

Without Kroos' passing and organization, Manchester City's offense can only be initiated by the linkage and cooperation of the frontcourt players.

Without the transition in the midfield, it means that the opponent can only use speed to counterattack quickly, and pass the ball directly to the frontcourt without going through the midfield.

But the problem is that Manchester City doesn't have the kind of center forward who can hold the position and hold the ball in the frontcourt!
How will Guardiola's offense go?

Mourinho shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Guardiola is out of his mind, who knows what he is thinking.

Instead of wasting time and energy trying to figure out what the opponent thinks, it is better to spend energy on how to improve the team's offensive efficiency.

Yes, Mourinho is aiming for all three points in this game!

If they can beat Manchester City at home, then Chelsea's championship situation this year will be very optimistic.

Inside the box at the Stamford Bridge Stadium, Chelsea boss Abramovich stared at the stadium with a serious expression.

Last season's lack of all four made him somewhat dissatisfied with Mourinho, and because of the club manager's affairs, his relationship with Mourinho was very tense.

If Mourinho can lead the team to get enough honors, then Abramovich may be able to tolerate his misconduct.

But it is a pity that last year Chelsea had no results on all fronts, especially the home and away double play by Basel in the Champions League, and the elimination by Guardiola's Bayern, which made Abramovich even more troublesome.

After winning the Premier League championship, Abramovich's attention to the league has dropped a lot. What he cares most about now is Chelsea's results in the Champions League.

However, since winning the Champions League, in the past two years, the Blues' record in the Champions League is simply horrible.

This is obviously not worthy of their status as a giant, so Abramovich hopes that Mourinho can lead the team to a breakthrough in the Champions League.

Even if they can't win the Champions League again, they must at least lead the team to the semi-finals or even the finals to prove their strength.

It's a pity that Mourinho can't even do this little thing.

This made Abu's patience almost exhausted again.

If Chelsea fails again in all competitions this season, then he may once again fire the madman and drive him out of Chelsea.

Moreover, after driving the madman away this time, Abramovich will never have any thoughts about him in the future, and will not allow the madman to return to Stamford Bridge.

"Mourinho, I hope you can seize the opportunity I give you and don't let me down!"

Looking at the madman standing on the sidelines with his suit open and his hands on his hips, Abu said silently in his heart.

After Chelsea's opening attack failed to bear fruit, the game quickly entered Manchester City's round.

In the 7th minute of the first half, Manchester City completed a steal in the frontcourt.

Navas was blocked by Hazard after taking the ball. He chose to pass the ball to Lin Quan.

Both Oscar and Matic almost predicted the opponent's choice, one after the other, they approached Lin Quan.

If Lin Quan catches the ball, he is likely to be intercepted by the opponent. Once the ball stops, this quick counterattack will fail.

However, Lin Quan did not stop the ball, but directly passed the ball to Navas who successfully broke through.

After Navas completed the pass, he didn't think that Lin Quan would pass the ball to himself. He was just running forward according to the offensive tactics arranged by the coach.

Hazard next to him thought the same way, so after seeing Navas continue to go down, he handed over the opponent to Chelsea's left back Azpilicueta and asked him to defend Navas.

He rushed to the middle of the court, wanting to counterattack as soon as his teammates completed the steal.

Hazard's choice does not seem to be wrong, Navas has left his defensive area at this time.

He is a winger, so it is impossible for him to follow the opponent to retreat to the bottom line, right?
However, Hazard didn't seem to notice that Chelsea's midfielder Matic had already robbed at this time and had not yet returned to his defensive position.

There was a momentary gap at the front of Chelsea's penalty area before Lin Quan passed the ball and Chelsea's full-backs went up to tackle it.

Navas keenly captured this gap. Instead of bringing the ball to the bottom line, he chose to cut inside at the first time.

"Stop him!"

Matic, who returned to defense, shouted anxiously at his teammates, but without him shouting, Ramirez and captain Terry had already noticed the danger.

The two rushed towards Navas who was holding the ball, trying to kill Manchester City's attack at the front of the penalty area.

Navas did not have Lin Quan's superb dribbling skills. Seeing the opponent's two defensive generals rushing towards him, he didn't dare to take too much, and quickly passed the ball to his forward Aguero.

Another Chelsea centre-back, Zouma, got stuck in the defensive position, making it impossible for Aguero to turn around.

Aguero didn't dare to stop the ball, and passed the ball back to Lin Quan who followed up.

Under the interference of Ramirez, Lin Quan completed a powerful long-range shot at the top of the arc in the penalty area.

There was a loud bang and Courtois failed to touch the ball, yet the football hit the crossbar.

It's just that, unlike expected, the football was not ejected, but bounced into the goal line along the lower edge of the crossbar. After bouncing on the lawn inside the goal line, it hit the goal net. stop.

This loud noise was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of Chelsea fans fiercely, causing them to go into cardiac arrest!
Only 7 minutes have passed since the start of the game!

In 7 minutes, the Blues fell behind at home?

This is too fast!

There was silence at Stamford Bridge, and countless Chelsea fans could hardly accept this result.

They clenched their fists and looked at the No. 10 player on the court who was running to celebrate with hateful eyes!
It's this guy again!

　On the last day of the end of the month, I have the cheek to ask everyone for some monthly tickets
