Chapter 713 The Man Who Slides and Kneels on the 3 Bars!
Chapter 713 The man who slides and kneels on three bars!
"This is Mourinho!!"
Seeing that the opponent suddenly replaced two centers, Gao Bo turned his head and smiled at Moya.
Moya also nodded.
When they were in La Liga, they fought a lot. For Mourinho's habits, Moya can be said to know well.
In general, this is an extremely conservative guy, but at some point, he can always do amazing things.
Take, for example, an adventurous moment like now.
Drogba replaced Ramirez, while Torres replaced Ashley Cole!
The formation that Chelsea is preparing for now is a three-centre back formation.
Mourinho in a 343 formation!
In the back are Ivanovic, John Terry, David Luiz, three defenders, Mikel and Kante's partner in the middle, Lampard and Oscar in front of the two midfielders, and in the top In front are three centers, Drogba, Demba Ba, Torres!
This is a typical top-heavy, desperate formation, in a way, it's not 343, because Chelsea don't have two wingbacks who can go on and off, it's 3223!
A very deformed formation, the wing is almost completely abandoned!
A life-threatening style of play.
Gao Bo is not worried about this. Although such a formation may have an unprecedented increase in attack power, it has a natural weakness in defense.
The sidewalks are completely undefended! !
Gao Bo immediately called Griezmann over for a face-to-face instruction!
After Griezmann returned, he also explained Gao Bo's words to other relevant players in time!
......
After Chelsea completed the substitution, their frontcourt pressing intensified!
Especially for Eriksen's defense.
The previous goal was scored by Griezmann,
But the key pass was Eriksen's.
Mourinho certainly knew this, so after the substitution, Eriksen had a hard time getting the ball comfortably.
However, Manchester City is not only able to play Eriksen this point.
Gao Bo has an obvious tactical idea that is weak core.
Maybe at a certain stage, the ball will be tilted to a certain player, just like the previous team's focus on Eriksen.
But overall, Manchester City is a "weak core" team.
Because in the frontcourt, there are many players who can take the core responsibility.
Kaka can, Griezmann can, David Silva can, Hazard can too.
Therefore, Eriksen was watched, and it did not mean that Manchester City's offense was paralyzed.
And in order to keep watch on Eriksen, Chelsea must pay the price of man-marking, which gives other Manchester City players room to play.
After Chelsea's substitution, an obvious change is that David Silva and Griezmann are more open!
They are almost on the sidelines!
This put Chelsea's defense into a very embarrassing situation.
First of all, it is impossible for them to give up the defense in the middle to mark the players on the wing, but, facing players of the level of David Silva and Griezmann, can you let them catch the ball and get the ball?
With such a wide pitch, Chelsea has at most three players on one front. Once they choose to stick to the wing to defend, the middle will be completely empty!
You know, Manchester City's middle road is Kaka and Hazard! !
These two also have to be guarded!
Mourinho is also aware of the defensive problems Chelsea is facing now. He is a coach who started out by defending himself.
But in the trade-off, Mourinho chose to attack!
And it's a mad attack! !
Mourinho's gambler character is at work again at this time!
He is gambling!
Bet Chelsea can score faster than Manchester City! !
He has three centers, Drogba, Dembaba, and Torres!
The three centers are the kind that can resist and rush!
As long as the ball is passed into the penalty area, no matter who these three center forwards seize the opportunity and score a goal, they can buy time for Chelsea to continue their life!
Although Mourinho is reluctant to admit it, the current reality is that Chelsea is a party that cannot afford to lose. In fact, even a draw will not quench their thirst for Chelsea.
But now, in the case of falling behind, Mourinho should also be satisfied with the draw.
At least not by Manchester City to widen the points gap.
Moreover, even if Chelsea draws this game, it is not without a chance, and Manchester City will face their rival Manchester United! !
Once Manchester City dropped points in that game, Chelsea could catch up.
And the premise of all this is that you must not lose! !
Score a goal!
Equalize the score!
Even if it is to drink poison to quench thirst, Mourinho has to do it! !
......
The advantage of adding a few players in the frontcourt is that Chelsea's frontcourt pressing intensity has risen to a new level!
Under Chelsea's frantic front-court press, the game fell into a relatively chaotic period.
In the face of pressing and unable to play the ball, Manchester City will not hold on to short passes, they will also use a big foot to temporarily relieve the pressure on the backcourt.
And for Chelsea, this is their chance!
Once the ball is taken, Chelsea's attack is also very simple!
Direct long pass punch!
Hit Demba, Drogba and other players' heads!
Although Gao Bo sneered at Mourinho's offensive methods, he had to admit that to a certain extent, the long pass and dash were simple, but the power was not small!
At least with a strong center like Drogba, no team dares to take it lightly!
In the 67th minute of the game, Drogba headed the ball to Torres after receiving a long pass from the backcourt!
Torres kicks a volley in the penalty area!
Two Chelsea players on the bench completed a direct match.
Fortunately, Oblak reacted in time, threw the ball sideways, and saved the ball from the bottom line! !
And then there's the Chelsea corner! !
When Oscar took the corner kick, Gao Bo felt bad in his heart.
Drogba jumped high in the penalty area, and the Ivorian veteran beat Colo Toure and shook his head to attack the goal! !
There was an exclamation in the stands! !
Gao Bo suddenly stood up!
This is what he is most afraid of! !
The opportunity to be caught by the opponent's set-piece to score! !
Defensive set-pieces are tough for any team.
After all, as long as the opponent has a few physically strong and powerful players, they can always use corner kicks to create threats.
Oblak has nothing to do with this header.
He didn't have time to react at all.
The football was headed by Drogba and flew directly towards the goal.
With all eyes on, the football flies into the goal! !
Hit the net! !
Drogba was very excited after landing, and he used his hands and feet to maintain his balance.
Then rushed to the corner of the flag area, a long kneeling, leaving three deep traces behind...
