Chapter 85 Red Card

Chelsea pulled back a goal and made Mourinho taste the sweetness. He urged Chelsea to continue to strengthen the attack. He thought it would be great if he could equalize the score before the end of the first half.

However, Gosho has adapted to the offensive rhythm of Chelsea. Chelsea is no longer so easy to break the ball and counterattack, and the game has returned to the offensive position. And another unfavorable factor made Mourinho frown, that is, the Chelsea team's fouls have increased due to the fierce robbery during this period. Mickel and Hüller each got a yellow card. Hüller is better. Müller is shouldering the heavy responsibility of keeping an eye on Ivanovich. He carries a yellow card. It is inevitable that there will be some incongrination, which is very unfavorable for Chelsea's later game.

In the remaining ten minutes of the first half, the two teams never scored again, and they entered the halftime with a score of 2:1. Although the Chelsea team did not equalize the score as Mu Nio thought, it was able to score a goal in the first half, which still relieved Mourinho. The gap between one goal is not unacceptable. If it is 0:2 behind in the first half, then the ball is really difficult to play.

After returning to the locker room, Mourinho praised the players for their performance after falling behind by 0:2. Of course, he would not take the initiative to admit to the players that there was something wrong with his tactical deployment, which he thought would only damage his authority. The short 15 minutes of halftime break can't make him talk too much. He just let the players continue to strengthen the strength of the rush in the second half. If there is a chance, they will fight back and strive to equalize the score in the shortest time. After equalizing the score, the game is much better.

Mourinho also knows that such a tactic is just a stopgap, and it is too simple and rude, without much technical content, but there is nothing he can do. Who made a mistake in his tactics in the first half and was scored two goals by Gosho in just 20 minutes. Now he can only use such unconventional tactics. It is. Fortunately, the Premier League ended ten days ago, and Chelsea won the championship one round earlier, so their rest time is relatively sufficient, and there is no physical problem. Thinking of this, Mourinho can't help but be lucky that Chelsea have completed the old and new this season. Now the main players on the court are all playing year, and there are not many veterans over 30 years old. If it is still like two seasons ago, Lampard, Terry and others play the main force, then after such a high-intensity first half After that, I'm afraid they won't be able to run.

In the locker room of Gosho, Lin Fenglei also praised his players. In the first half of the game, Gosho's tactical execution was very strong. Salihovic's two front insertions have achieved very good results. One time he directly instigated a goal, and the other time he covered Ivanovic. Instigated a goal. In a game like the Champions League final, both sides of the game will be very cautious. It is very difficult to score goals by relying on conventional tactics, and the opponent's research has reached the level of their own understanding. Now it is not easy to keep such a secret weapon as Salihovic. Fortunately, he has a super striker like Egman, and he has only seized the only two opportunities in the first half. How valuable is a striker with such a strong ability to seize opportunities!

Lin Fenglei also arranged the tactics of the second half. He asked Ivanovic to increase the number of personal dribbles, because there is Antunović behind him as a protection. Even if he loses the ball, he will not let his opponent directly face the defense of the Gosho team, but if his dribble can If it's broken, then the Gosho team may get a chance, and if his dribble can lure Mikkel to foul and let him get a second yellow card, then the Gosho team will have a great advantage. If Mikkel is afraid of the yellow card on his body and shrinks, then Ivanovich will undoubtedly lose one less. With some constraints, there is more room to play.

In the use of Salihovic, Lin Fenglei pondered for a moment, and then he still handed over his autonomy to Salihovic. He asked Salihovic to plug in or not to plug in when he found a very good opportunity. If Salihovic chose to plug in, the other players of the Gosho team would definitely We should fully cooperate with Salihovic to open up space for him and increase the success of Salihovic's plug-in.

Salikhovich did not hesitate to accept the task. His position is at the end, which also determines that his vision is the most open. His position can allow him to better observe the situation on the field, and his football IQ can also let him decide when to plug in, which is why his two insertions are The reason why the team brought the goal.

After a 15-minute half-minute break, the second half of the game resumed. In the second half of the game, Chelsea's front-court rush became more fierce, but the Gorshaw team's formation contracted relatively backwards, and the distance between the players was maintained better, so there was no such a mistake in the first half of their pass, and the Chelsea could no longer easily get the opportunity to fight back on the spot.

This makes Mourinho a little big, but now he is hard to get off. Who makes Chelsea lagging behind now? If the pace of the game is slowed down, the game will be more difficult to play. The Gosau team can completely waste time in the backcourt. Chelsea can't afford it now.

Another question also made Mourinho hesitate, that is, now more and more Goshaos give the ball to Ivanovic, and Ivanovic did not hand over the ball to other teammates as quickly as he did in the first half. He now controls the ball more by himself, which seems to have the intention of seducing Mikkel to foul. Seeing this scene, Mourinho's heart thumped, and there was a bad hunch that Lin Fenglei wanted to lure Meeker to get a second yellow card? This is indeed a problem. Mikkel is a player who is relatively easy to get a yellow card, and Ivanovic, who he defends, is the core of Gosho's organization. He is skilled and conscious. Players like defense sometimes have to foul.

Mourinho is nervously thinking about countermeasures, but he doesn't have any good cards in his hand to replace Mickel. Lampard has retired and Essien is old. Now his physical fitness has dropped sharply, and he can no longer adapt to such a high-intensity game, or he will not have sent Mickel in this game. You should know that he has never reused Mikkel.

Mourinho looked at the bench and shook his head secretly. Several midfielders on the bench were better offense and defensive. He was hesitating whether to swap the positions of Ramirez and Mikkel.

While Mourinho was hesitating, the situation on the court changed again. In the 54th minute, Ivanovic received a pass from Antuhovic, and Mikkel immediately forced him up. Ivanovic spiked the ball in place, got rid of Mickel's defense and pushed the ball forward with the ball. Entering, Mickel persistently turned around and rushed over again. At this time, Ivanovic showed his superb skills. He pulled the ball with his toes between running, made a beautiful Marseille roundabout, and suddenly completely got rid of Mickel's defense. At this time, his front was open, and Avanzi Ni and Horenstein fired two arrows on both sides and sprinted forward at high speed, holding Chelsea's two sides. Kodinho in the middle also retreated in time, attracting Ramirez's defense.

"Dangerous!" Mourinho suddenly stood up from the coach's seat, and the Chelsea fans were all silent. They stood up and looked nervously at Ivanovic, who controlled the ball. Other fans at the scene suddenly shouted and cheered for Ivanovic.

After Mikel rushed into the air, he knew that something was wrong. He tried his best to overcome inertia, stopped, and then turned to chase Ivanovic. At this time, he was already three or four meters away from Ivanovic, but Ivanovic's absolute speed was not fast, and he was still driving the ball, which made him faster than Mi. Kerr slowed down a little, and Mikkel chased back at full speed and was confident that he would catch up with Ivanovich within 20 meters.

But the two had just run about ten meters. Ivanovich passed the middle circle and swung his right leg and was ready to pass the ball. At this time, Mikkel was still about two meters away from Ivanovic. He shouted in his heart that it was bad, and his body had reacted before his brain. He fell to the ground and tackled behind Ivanovic, but in How can he shovel the ball in front of Ivanovic here? His strong shovel hit Ivanovich's left ankle. Ivanovic screamed, fell to the ground, and rolled with his left foot in his arms.

Hearing a sharp whistle, the referee Herman on duty rushed to the scene of the incident. He waved to Mikkel and motioned him to stand up. Mikkel knew that something was wrong, and he also hugged his feet and rolled around, hoping to get the sympathy of the referee and show mercy to his men.

The other players of the Chelsea team also ran over and pleaded with Herman, while the Gosho players ran to Ivanovic, who fell to the ground, and asked him how he felt. Avanzini came forward and said to Herman, "Mr. Referee, this is a serious tactical foul. He deserves punishment!"

Herman nodded to Avazzini, and then, despite the Chelsea players' pleas, ordered Mikkel to stand up and showed him a red card directly.

Mickel covered his face and walked off the court. When he passed the team's coach's bench, Mourinho didn't even look at him.
