Football: start copying peak Messi attributes

Chapter 367 He kicked too smart!
"Goal!!! A lightning goal from Lin Quan!"

"Only 7 minutes into the game, Lin Quan used a long shot to help Manchester City take the lead. Chelsea is now in danger."

"Lin Quan deserves to be Chelsea's nemesis. In several games against Chelsea, he has scored goals, and every goal is extremely critical!"

"Hehe, I think Chelsea fans hate him to death. Every time the team wants to win, it is Lin Quan who stands up and shatters their dreams."

In the CCTV studio, two commentators said with a smile.

Because of Lin Quan's relationship, when the two commented on Manchester City's game, they would inevitably be more inclined to Manchester City.

In fact, it's not just them. In China, the number of Manchester City fans has increased rapidly in recent years.

Many Chinese fans regard Manchester City as their home team, which became obvious after Guardiola joined Manchester City.

Focusing on Manchester City's games, they can not only appreciate Lin Quan's miraculous performance on the court, but also appreciate Guardiola's various wonderful tactics.

These are not seen in the national league!

Moreover, the time of the Chinese Super League does not conflict with the time of the Premier League, and watching Premier League games does not affect their watching the Super League.

Although before this, the promotion of the Premier League in China has been done for many years, and it took a lot of effort.

But the results they have achieved in the past so many years are not as good as Lin Quan's results in the year and a half after joining Manchester City.

It's a pity that Lin Quan does not have Chinese nationality, otherwise, his popularity in China will only be higher.

"Lin Huang's shot is too outrageous. It must have been higher than the crossbar, but it went in!"

"It's really outrageous, it's just a miss, if the ball goes up a few centimeters, Chelsea won't be behind."

"I have seen Lin Huang's warm-up before a certain game. He can hit the same position of the goal frame several times in a row from 30 meters away from the goal frame. To be honest, I haven't seen this accuracy on other players. "

"Messi should be able to do it too. I've watched World Football invite him to be a guest. His footwork is terrifying!"

"Messi's program should not be that far away, 30 meters away, the recording site of the program group definitely doesn't have that much space."

"Anyway, Lin Huang's shot accuracy is definitely outstanding. When facing him, the goalkeeper must not take it lightly. If you don't pay attention, you may be scored."

"Speaking of which, Courtois is so good, he actually squeezed Cech, the goalkeeper of the Blues, to the bench. I really feel worthless for Cech!"

"Yes, Cech's state is obviously very good, and there is no problem with his ability. Mourinho shouldn't trust Courtois that much, and should give Cech more opportunities to play!"

"If it doesn't work, just leave Chelsea and go to another team. Arsenal next door lacks a good goalkeeper. Ospina and Szczesny have not performed well this season, especially the latter. The success rate is less than 70%.

Seeing how reckless Chelsea was, leaving such a good goalkeeper unused, Arsenal fans were almost envious.

Cech has only played 4 times in the Premier League this season, 3 times with zero seals, and his save success rate is as high as 90%. With such data, it is no problem to go to Arsenal as a starter.

However, considering the relationship between Chelsea and Arsenal, Cech, who has played for Chelsea for a full decade, may not necessarily do this.

But if Chelsea keeps him out of the game, no matter how loyal the veteran is, there will be a chilling day.

Lampard can switch to Manchester City, and it seems that it is not incomprehensible for Cech to go to Arsenal.

……

The game continued, and Chelsea, who fell behind, pounced on Manchester City like an enraged lion.

In the 11th minute, Oscar passed the goal with a long shot.

Two minutes later, William sent a cross after breaking through from the wing. Diego Costa got rid of the defender and shot angrily at the ball, which was sent out by Navasto.

Chelsea played a wave of offensive climax, but Van Dijk, who was touched by Diego Costa, was very angry and wanted to teach this guy with dirty hands.

Diego Costa plays dirty, and often has some subtle little moves in his hands to interfere with the opponent's defensive players.

The last time he was at the Etihad Stadium, he did this once. After angering Manchester City that time, Manchester City turned on the berserk mode and beat Chelsea 3:1 to win the first round.

Diego Costa was nearly suspended by the FA for dirty behavior in the last game against Liverpool.

I thought Diego Costa would restrain himself a little, but he didn't expect him to repeat his old tricks.

This guy is really stubborn.

Chelsea got a corner, and Willian took the corner, looking for his own high point in the penalty area.

Blues captain John Terry leaped high, shaking his head and attacking the goal slightly above the crossbar. Chelsea missed the chance to equalize.

On the sidelines, Mourinho applauded the players for their performance during this time.

The offense during this period was good, and if they continue to play like this, they will be able to tie the score sooner or later.

However, things did not go as he expected, after realizing Chelsea's offensive threat.

Under Guardiola's signal, Manchester City began to control the rhythm of the game.

They take advantage of the width of the court and patiently look for opportunities with their feet backwards. They will never attack easily without an excellent opportunity.

This made Chelsea a bit uncomfortable. Once they went forward to press, the opponent would pass the ball back to the defender.

Their forwards went to press the opponent's defenders, but because they were outnumbered, they were teased by the opponent for walking their dogs.

Seeing Diego Costa running around in embarrassment in the frontcourt, Van Dijk and several Manchester City defenders felt a bad breath, wishing to walk around a few more times and run to kill this guy.

Seeing Manchester City use their feet to waste time, the Chelsea fans at the scene booed one after another.

They hate the opponent's pass and control football very much. The opponent does not attack and keeps wasting time. This makes them very anxious, worrying that the game time will be used up.

Mourinho glanced at Guardiola next door. The opponent's tactics are not the same as when he was in Barcelona.

At that time, Guardiola and his Barcelona were not so utilitarian.

Faced with Mourinho's gaze, Guardiola was frank.

In fact, using the ball to consume time is not a tactic developed by Guardiola.

In this game, Kroos is not on the court, and the person who controls the rhythm of the game is Lin Quan, the core of the team.

Was it his decision?

Guardiola couldn't help thinking in his heart.

This kid is too smart to kick, right?

Continue to play like this, the mentality of Chelsea players should be anxious!

Seeing that the game time passed a little bit, the game has passed 20 minutes, and the opponent is still in possession of the ball, the Chelsea players are angry.

In the past 10 minutes, Manchester City has been on the back foot. During this period, they only completed one attack.

This style of play is really shameless. If they don't press heavily on Manchester City's backcourt, the Chelsea players suspect that these guys will stay on their feet until the end of the game.

As a result, Chelsea's formation began to press up, and the two full-backs almost rushed to Manchester City's penalty area to grab the ball.

Lin Quan and his teammates retreated slowly, always maintaining an offensive formation, and did not lose their position because of the opponent's heavy pressure.

On the surface, Chelsea had the upper hand, suppressing Manchester City's players in their own half and besieging Manchester City's goal.

In fact, because Manchester City's defensive formation is maintained very well, when defending in the low position, they take advantage of the numbers to greatly limit the opponent's offense.

Chelsea's offense seemed to have kicked on an iron plate. It looked huge, but it couldn't play a threat at all.

On the contrary, on Manchester City's side, after the opponent pressed across the board, Chelsea's huge gap in the backcourt was exposed, allowing Manchester City to seize the opportunity!

In the 24th minute, Ivan made a pass error and was intercepted by Fernandinho.

After stealing the ball, the football was quickly handed over to Lin Quan's feet. Lin Quan took a look at the frontcourt position, then sent a through ball to Aguero's feet.

The ball pierced Chelsea's defense. Unfortunately, Aguero, who has returned from injury, has not yet returned to his best form. In addition, Courtois attacked very timely and blocked Aguero's shot on the penalty area line. out.

Manchester City's counterattack shocked Chelsea, and in the next few minutes, they did not dare to press so far forward.

However, they did not dare to make a big push, and Manchester City immediately repeated their tricks and continued to fall in the backcourt.

There were bursts of boos again at the scene, and the Chelsea fans were almost lost their temper by the opponent's shameless behavior.

Mourinho's expression was very serious. He called Matic over, gave a few words of advice, and then waved his hand to signal the players to attack boldly.

With the endorsement of the head coach, Chelsea's players have become a lot more courageous.

Mourinho's eyes were as sharp as lightning, staring straight at Manchester City's half.

The advantage of Manchester City shrinking the defense is that they have gained a lot of counterattack space, but the disadvantage is that this position is too close to their own goal.

As long as Chelsea completes the steal, it can immediately pose a threat to Manchester City's goal.

So, now we have to compare whether Chelsea seized the opportunity to beat Manchester City to the ground, or Manchester City gritted their teeth and persisted, and then relied on counterattacks to defeat the Blues!
In such a stalemate situation, there are many offensive opportunities for both sides.

In the 29th minute, Ramirez steals De Bruyne, and Oscar's long shot is saved by Navas.

In the 32nd minute, Manchester City made a long pass from the backcourt, Terry made a defensive error, and Aguero formed a single-handedly after receiving the ball.

However, his low shot after a long-distance attack slid out of the goal. At the same time, Lin Quan, who was outflanking in place, couldn't help sighing when he saw his teammates wasting a good opportunity.

If the ball were replaced by him to shoot, it would almost certainly be a goal.

But Aguero was eager to shoot and didn't pay attention to his position.

"Sorry Lin, my mistake!"

After finishing the shot, Aguero noticed that Lin Quan had outflanked the flank. As long as he passed, it would be an empty goal.

After realizing that he was not calm enough to play, and even a little independent, Aguero immediately apologized to Lin Quan.

"It's okay, you just came back from injury, and your condition has not fully recovered, so don't blame yourself too much!"

The ball has been missed, and it's useless to blame his teammates, not to mention that the opponent has realized his mistake and bowed his head to admit his mistake. Naturally, Lin Quan can't continue to blame him.

Manchester City's counterattack threat is greater than the previous one, and it is only a hair's breadth away from scoring.

The fans of the Blues were all frightened into a cold sweat, and they all felt that Mourinho's style of play was a bit too risky.

Chelsea are good at playing defensive counterattacks, not this kind of oppressive attack.

However, Mourinho remained unchanged and was not affected by the ball in the slightest.

With a big wave of his hand, he signaled the players to keep attacking!
Seeing the coach's instructions, the Chelsea players could only bite the bullet and continue to attack Manchester City.

Neither side played in the way they were good at. Chelsea, which should have been defensive and counterattacked, played a pressing attack, while Manchester City, which was supposed to be pressing and attacking, played a defensive counterattack.

If the team name is covered, the fans even feel that Manchester City is Chelsea, and Chelsea is Manchester City.

When both sides are using styles of play they are not familiar with, various problems will inevitably arise.

In the 41st minute, Ivanovic found Hazard with a long pass.

The Belgian, who was depressed throughout the first half, finally had a bright performance this time.

Hazard took the lead, entered the penalty area and knocked on the door. Diego Costa scored in front of the goal and rewritten the score to 1:1!

Chelsea finally tied the score, and the two sides returned to the same starting line!

After seeing Diego Costa's goal, Mourinho excitedly came to a slide to celebrate!
Although it was just an equalizer, this goal is of great significance to Mourinho!

In football, the enemy he values ​​most is Guardiola.

The honors of the two are similar, and the achievements of leading the team are also different.

In addition, they are both the most promising coaches in the outside world, and the two have accumulated a lot of grievances in the past.

So every time they fight, it can arouse huge topics and attention.

Mourinho can accept losing to others, but he cannot accept losing to Guardiola.

Especially when you lose at home!

This is absolutely unacceptable!
Guardiola next door didn't react too much to the ball. Although the timing of conceding the ball was a bit unfavorable, there was still half-time, so there was no need to worry.

And a 1:1 draw is not unacceptable for Manchester City, far from the end of the world.

He didn't see Mourinho's exaggerated celebration. For the direction, the more you pay attention to the other party, the more proud the other party will be.

Compared to admiring Mourinho's performance art, Guardiola is more concerned about what tactics should be used in the second half.

The conceded goal just now proved that it is very risky to continue playing like this.

This season, Chelsea's offensive ability has become much stronger, especially the joining of Diego Costa, which has allowed them to get rid of their stubborn weakness.

Coupled with a large number of talented players such as Hazard and Oscar, it is very dangerous for Chelsea to play against Manchester City.

Manchester City should still use their more familiar tactics.

It's just that using pass control tactics to deal with Mourinho's team, in Guardiola's last season coaching Barcelona, ​​the effect was not very good.

So, how about using that trick?
Guardiola thought of a good idea, but he has not implemented this tactic before, and the risk is not small.

So he planned to make a decision in the second half based on the situation on the court. If it really didn't work, he would use this trump card to give it a go at the last moment!
