Red Rebels

After Messi came on the field, his tactics changed and returned to the original 4231 tactics. De Rossi and Essien acted as double midfielders, Kaká played as the attacking midfielder, Ronaldinho and Messi were separated on the two wings, and Drogba served as the double midfielder. center.

Van Gaal on the sidelines was a little confused. Neither De Rossi nor Essien are players with excellent organizational skills. Mourinho uses them as a double midfielder. Defense should not be a big problem, but what about organizing offense? Is Mourinho going to give up control of the game?

Van Gaal has confidence in his players. Yaya Toure's role was underestimated. He should not just be a midfield sweeper. He has excellent organizational talents, so Van Gaal introduced Wei After Ella and Van Bommel, Yaya Toure is still used quite heavily.

A central midfielder who can go up and down, who can participate in assists when moving forward, and who can form a barrier when retreating, is the best positioning for Yaya Toure. Coupled with Sneijder, who is further back, a The wandering Van der Vaart has two strong players in Vieira and Van Bommel behind him. Van Gaal is very confident in his control of the team.

Anyone who is familiar with Mourinho knows that it is impossible to give up control. The most important thing has always been control of the game, control of the ball, and control of space. But now he is willing to give up?

Thinking of this, Van Gaal turned his head and looked at Mourinho. The latter happened to look over and smiled, which was very enigmatic. This made Van Gaal mutter in his heart, what is this guy thinking?

"Believe it or not, Jim, he must be guessing, what is this guy thinking?" Mourinho smiled and turned back to Cassel, who has always been Mourinho's most powerful arm.

"To be honest, I also think it's a bit too risky for you to do this!" Cassel said with a wry smile.

Giving up control is tantamount to giving up the tactics you are best at, and you have already lost a point before you even play. Moreover, this is not like Mourinho's usual character. He is not always pursuing stability and does not like too much. Risky?

"Risk? Maybe, but Jim, on the football field, tactics cannot remain the same forever. Since Manchester City likes to have the ball, let them have the ball. We give up unnecessary possession and pursue efficiency. Wouldn't that be better?" Mourinho laughed.

Cassell knew that he could not defeat Mourinho. Let alone the beginning of the second half, even if he lost this game, Mourinho would definitely be able to find a lot of reasons for his stubbornness. Defend yourself.

You can't say that he refuses to admit defeat, nor can you say that he is unreasonable. You can only say that his character is like this. Even if he really loses, he will not admit his defeat on any occasion. This can be regarded as a kind of To a certain extent, I can’t afford to lose.

But Cassel couldn't help but think of what Xiao Yu once said about Mourinho, that is, any smart person who is pursuing and fighting will not admit his failure easily, no matter what the occasion.

"Do you really think Drogba can shoulder this responsibility?" Cassel said worriedly.

On the court, the previous midfield ball control was abandoned, and the attack was more from the two wings, directly finding Drogba. If the wings were not available, he would use his big kick in the backcourt to find Drogba in front.

"Of course, I think this is not a problem at all!" Mourinho was very confident in his favorite disciple, "Do you know the outside world's evaluation of Didier?"

Cassell nodded. Who doesn’t know that Drogba has two nicknames, one is [African Elephant King] and the other is [Warcraft]. For this reason, Xiao Yu’s American game company Blizzard specially invited Drogba to represent them. Produced games such as [Warcraft] and [World of Warcraft].

"Once he goes crazy, he can crush any defense in the world!"

Less than a minute after Mourinho finished speaking, De Rossi intercepted the ball from Sneijder in midfield. The latter fell to the ground, but the referee did not call a foul. De Rossi took the opportunity Big foot long pass.

The magic quartet in the frontcourt often changes positions, and Drogba needs to respond to the front, back, left, and right.

The position was more active. This time he judged the landing point of the football and retreated slightly deeper.

Kolo Toure is shorter, and Van Gaal specially arranged for Distin to look after Drogba. Although the Frenchman has performed well in the Premier League in the past few seasons, when he met Drogba, he was immediately at a loss and was pulled out of the penalty area. I couldn't beat Drogba for position, so I had to hold on behind him.

Drogba shook his head at the spot where the ball landed, and the ball flew to the left. Ronaldinho stopped the ball on his chest and dodged, got rid of Mills, quickly started to walk inside, and faced Kolo Toure directly.

The Ivorians who came out know very well how sharp Ronaldinho is. They know that it is very difficult to eat Ronaldinho in a one-on-one situation. The frequency and speed of his movements are too fast, coupled with his His superb skills are simply impossible to guard against.

When Kolo Toure was still hesitating how to face Ronaldinho, the latter suddenly passed the ball.

Kaka arrived on horseback and blocked Van Bommel who was following behind him. After speeding away, he entered the penalty area. Facing Bridge who was assisting in defense, the Brazilian made a fake move and passed Bridge. His right foot suddenly Get up and hit the door!

"Beautiful, the ball went in! Kaka, in the 48th minute of the second half, Kaka was very calm after receiving a pass from Ronaldinho. After getting rid of Van Bommel, he calmly deceived Bridge with a fake move. He volleyed and the ball rolled into the near corner, out of reach of Given!"

Andy Gray exclaimed loudly after Kaka scored.

"This is definitely a world-class goal. Kaka's entire process from catching the ball to getting rid of it and then to the fake move was like flowing water, smooth, free and elegant. Bridge was like a wooden stake in front of him! "

After scoring the goal, Kaka jumped up with excitement and rushed forward to hug Ronaldinho, who assisted the goal. Then Drogba, another contributor to the goal, also stepped forward to celebrate. Messi and De Rossi Others also approached the Brazilian one after another.

After scoring the goal, Kaka first raised his index finger to the sky, but soon ran under the fans' stands, raised his index and middle fingers, and made a "2" gesture. This made many people feel strange, but the players came up one after another. Encourage and support Kaka.

"2? Is Kaká telling the fans that he will score two more goals?"

Amid Andy Gray's guessing, the screen came to the stands and found a pure and touching Brazilian girl. She was sitting next to Xiao Yu, covering her face and crying, but when she raised her head, she had a look of sadness on her face. happiness.

"Yes, Kaka is saying that he hopes to score two more goals. This is a bet he posted on his blog and Twitter before. He made an agreement with Xiao Yu that if he can score three hat tricks this season , then Xiao Yu will be responsible for organizing a wedding for him!"

"Wedding? Is Kaka getting married?" Andy Gray was a little surprised. This will definitely make countless Kami suffer.

"Yes, that Brazilian girl is called Caroline, and she is Kaka's fiancée."

Andy Gray suddenly laughed, "No wonder Kaka looks so excited today, it turns out she wants to get married!"

The fans in the stands suddenly burst into an uproar, singing loud and loud Kaka's song, and then some people kept shouting to support Kaka's hat trick.

…………After the restart, the two sides were still in a back-and-forth contest. Manchester City, which was lagging behind, attacked more fiercely. Obviously, Van Gaal did not want to lose at home, he wanted goals.

However, they still adhere to the style of play after the opening of the second half, with the formation retracting somewhat, especially the two defensive midfielders, who basically do not advance forward. The front attack is all handed over to the magic quartet in the frontcourt and the full-backs advancing forward.

In the 51st minute, another counterattack was launched. Maicon on the right intercepted the ball and then moved forward along the right. When faced with Van Bommel's blockage, he made a diagonal pass to the center.

Drogba once again grabbed the first point and headed the ball to the nearby Kaka. The latter broke through with the ball and scored to the right at high speed. Messi stopped the ball very gracefully and stopped directly behind Bridge, and then He suddenly accelerated and passed Bridge again.

Unfortunately, the England left back could only let Messi pass the ball. He desperately wanted to catch up, but only then did he realize that no matter how much he accelerated, he could not catch up with Messi. He even wanted to Even pulling him down won't work.

Messi reached the penalty area and was blocked by Distin. He had no intention of slowing down. He went down the left side of the penalty area. Distin thought he was going to cross the ball and immediately flew to block it. Who knew that Messi was actually there? It was a deft dunk, half-pushed and half-passed to the middle.

Kaká rushed in again and rushed to the front before Kolo Toure returned to defend. He accelerated with the ball. Facing the attacking Given, he calmly pushed the shot into the far corner and succeeded, 0:2!

"It's Kaka again. He was in the back row and calmly pushed into the far corner when he was alone. This was a beautiful teamwork. He scored two goals in a row within 3 minutes and took the lead 0:2. Kaka was in These two attacks showed the level of a world superstar, he is so good!"

Andy Gray once again exclaimed that he could not even imagine that the two teams, which were in a very stalemate in the first half, would suddenly change in the second half, scoring 2 goals in a row. Could it be said that the first half was deliberately reserved? ?

"Judging from the trajectory of the two goals, in the second half, they gave up the fight for the ball and did not compete with Manchester City in the midfield. They directly hit Drogba, the high point in the frontcourt. Kolo Toure is not tall enough. He can't compete with Drogba for headers, and Distin is not as good as the African Elephant King in terms of strength. You know, Drogba's high-point dominance in the penalty area is second to none."

"With Drogba as the fulcrum, Kaka behind him, Ronaldinho and Messi on both sides of him, the three players compete for the second spot. At this time, Drogba's ball-making ability is fully reflected, and Kolo ?Toure and Distin have almost no way to deal with him, so the next thing will be simple, small-scale cooperation has always been his specialty!"

Martin Taylor was full of praise for the changes in the second half, especially Mourinho's tactical adjustments. He removed Fabregas, completely gave up the fight for the ball, and uncharacteristically played long passes. This kind of The tactics may seem crude, but as long as they are used properly, they can also kill people.

It is precisely because of the change in tactics that from the beginning of the second half, Manchester City was far behind Manchester City in terms of ball possession. However, although Manchester City had no ball possession, it was never able to break through the defense.

"There is also a very interesting scene. When Drogba is at the front, Kaka's position is always the same as the midfielder, and one of Messi and Ronaldinho can always run out of the gap. The speed and personal ability of these three players are completely capable of eating up Manchester City's defense the moment they receive the ball."

Although the two goals have different routes, from a tactical point of view, they are exactly the same, both hitting Drogba.

"If Van Gaal can't figure out a way to control the second goal quickly, Manchester City will continue to concede goals!"

Sure enough, just after Martin Taylor finished speaking, he took the ball from the backcourt again and found Drogba. This time Distin did a good job and headed the ball out in advance, but it was controlled by Essien.

The Ghana midfielder passed the ball to De Rossi, who knocked back, and Essien suddenly dribbled the ball forward.

Essien dribbled the ball very carefully. This kind of dribbling was not fast, but it was not easy to be intercepted. When Maicon came up, he immediately handed it to Maicon's feet. The latter pushed forward along the right wing, while Essien moved forward. Get back behind him to fill the position.

Maicon passed forward and was handed over to Messi. The latter squeezed Bridge with his body on the right. After pushing the ball out, he ran out of bounds and then came back to catch the ball, forming a beautiful pass from the side. ㊣Baidu search: ㊣\\\\、half @福￥生\\//㊣

This time Messi went directly to the baseline and passed. Drogba pressed Distin with his body and headed the ball to the back point. Ronaldinho grabbed the shot in front of Kolo Toure, but the ball was jumped by Given. Crossed the bottom line.

Although they failed to score a goal, this attack once again sounded the alarm for Manchester City, especially how to limit the offense.

Van Gaal quickly made adjustments. He asked the three defensive midfielders to retreat, and the offense no longer pressed as aggressively as before, trying to control the second point. This indeed limited the offense to a certain extent. After all, Vieira , Van Bommel and Yaya Toure's defensive midfielder is still very strong.

In addition, Van Gaal replaced England defender Bridge with the all-purpose Sun Jihai. He was obviously dissatisfied with Bridge's several defensive mistakes against Messi in the second half. The replacement Sun Jihai was full of physical fitness and to some extent still He completed the task given to him by Van Gaal very well and restricted Messi.

However, after adjustments, although Manchester City stabilized the situation, their offense was no longer a big threat, which allowed them to gradually regain control of the game.

Sometimes, a football match is like a bowl of water. When you lean to the left, the water on the right side will flow to the left. But once you lie flat, the water originally leaning to the left will flow slowly. Slowly return to the right and the bowl of water is level again.

However, if a grain of sand falls into this pot of water that is as smooth as a mirror, it will cause ripples.
