417 As long as you can win, it is a good tactic

Valencia is a good opponent.

Or Valencia's current strength is very strong. Especially the midfielder, Alberda, Baraja, Aimar and Vicente.

Among them, Vicente is the best winger that has emerged in Spain in recent years. Now Vicente is at its peak.

Vicente is now one of the best left wingers in European football, known as the "Supreme Left". Vicente, who is only 21 years old, took Keeley last season. Gonzalez squeezed out. He became the main left winger of Valencia.

Vicente is fast, has good technology, and has better shooting ability. And his biography is also quite accurate. Give Mister countless good balls.

Now Vicente is very famous, even no less famous than Robben in Chelsea. It's a nightmare for all right-backs in Europe. Coupled with Valencia's talented players such as Aimar and Baraja, George is a little afraid of Valencia's midfield creativity.

George doesn't want to fight with Valencia in the midfield.

In the face of the aggressive Valencia, George chose the very traditional 4-4-2.

The midfielders include Pires, Alonso, Hargreaves and Duff, and the forward line is Klose and Drogba.

Benitez thought that George would choose the style of technical flow. After all, even if Blackburn is a defensive counterattack, the players in the midfield are all technical players. If in British football, which club is closest to the European style of play, which head coach's thinking is not the tradition of British football.

Then it must be Arsena's Wenger and Blackburn's George.

Needless to say, Wenger is the head coach from France.

But George is the head coach who is native to England. And the coaching career began in England, but George's thinking is completely contrary to the traditional English style. Whether it was Burnley or Blackburn.

And whether it is defensive counterattack or midfield control, George's style of play is different from the traditional style of British football.

And when playing for La Liga, George has always defeated La Liga with his skills. Benitez is also a very detail-oriented head coach.

Now Valencia is in a bad situation in the group stage. So Benitez attaches great importance to this game. It also carefully studied Blackburn and George. This made him find something.

George's military use is not limited to the situation. In the face of a strong team, George doesn't care about defensive counterattacks. In the face of the Serie A team, George will defeat the Serie A team with his fast pace. Every time he meets a La Liga team, George defeats the La Liga team with the team's skills.

Valencia is still a defensive counterattack team. Blackburn will definitely not play defensive counterattack at home, so Benitez believes that George will definitely use the combination of Miku, Alonso and Hargreaves.

But it's unexpected.

George did not arrange a single striker, but directly used a double striker.

George didn't be polite to Benitez either. After the game started, the midfield was simply ignored. Alonso's burden is very heavy, because as long as there is a ball, he will give it directly to the two sides, or directly pass it to the striker.

Blackburn's attack is very simple.

The big foot opened and handed it to the front Drogba or Klose. In the competition for the high-altitude ball, no one can compare with each other. So every time they get to the high ball in the front court, they can control it. If they can break through, they will break through by themselves.

If you can't break through, cooperate with the people next to you.

The cooperation between Drogba, Klose, Pires and Duff can complete the attack.

With a pass between two or three legs, Blackburn was able to make a shot. After the attack was unfavorable, he immediately came back to defend.

George's style of play made Benitez not expect it at all. This is a very untechnical way of playing. The middle and lower reaches of the Premier League play this style of football. In particular, many of their strikers are a combination of one high and one fast.

Their football is to open the big foot and grab the first point with a tall man. Then head the ball to another person, and finally you can form an attack.

Blackburn is slightly more cooperative than them, but the overall number of strokes is still the same.

Blackburn's style of play immediately stunned Valencia. When have their defenders seen this kind of play? They are fighting with people in Spain. Now Blackburn has two good forwards with headers.

The first landing point is almost all controlled by Klose and Drogba.

The two often get together, and it has been four years now. For four years, the cooperation between the two was very tacit.

As long as anyone grabs the first point and heads the ball, the other person can immediately know the drop point of the ball.

This fast and simple play makes Valencia's back line very uncomfortable.

In the first nineteen minutes of the first half, Blackburn midfielder Alonso got the ball. In the same way, the long pass was handed over to Drogba in front of him.

"Alonso... Drogba, overhead... Klose, a dunk, shot!"

Alonso's long pass is very talented. Although he is only 20 years old, the long pass is very accurate.

Dropba saw the ball and jumped high. Ayala in the back looked at Drogba with a wry smile, although he jumped hard to interfere with Drogba. But Drogba is now becoming more and more like a Warcraft. Ayala is completely out of proportion to Drogba.

Therefore, although there is some interference. But Drogba didn't pay attention to Ayala at all, and a header was handed directly to Ayala's back.

At this time, Cloze, who was wandering in front of him, quickly came to Drogba's passing route. There was no hesitation at all. Seeing that Pellegrini made a simple shot, he shot directly with his right foot.

"GOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The on-site commentator cheered loudly. Klose, Milo. Klose! Our hero, Klose. One-to-one, we are one-to-one lead. Cheer for our Milo. Klose!"

"Miro. Klose!"

"Klose! Klose!"

All the fans in Ewood Park cheered the name of "Klose".

And Klose and Drogba hugged excitedly.

George clapped his hands excitedly on the sidelines. Benitez, what if you are a master of tactics? Now you are just a rookie coach. There is only one La Liga champion, and he is still young in front of us?

Although George is a native coach in England, what George has always despised most is the arrogance of British football. In particular, the British football world is unwilling to accept change and is complatan. And Gu Fang appreciates herself and has no intention to change at all.

If it hadn't been for the entry of mainland coaches such as Wenger and Gulit, there would have been a change in British football.

Therefore, even England's traditional formation of 4-4-2 is somewhat inferior. I don't care about the long pass hanging.

But as he has been the head coach over the years, George's idea has gradually changed. There is no perfect formation or perfect tactics in this world. There is no best formation or the best tactics.

Italy's chain defense, the Netherlands' full attack and defense, Germany's freeman tactics, Brazil's samba football, can you say which of these tactics is the best and which one is lagging behind. No.

What kind of enemy should you face and what kind of tactics should be used.

This is normal.

George doesn't want to stick to the rules now. Once you stick to those rules, your vision will be blinded.

Therefore, in this game, George arranged the two centers, Klose and Drogba.

It really works very well.

Benitez was annoyed. George's style of play is too single, especially for Klose and Drogba, which is a huge threat. In terms of high-altitude ball, two people are rare in the world.

Now both of them are in the front, and the high-altitude ball is completely controlled by them.

But Blackburn's high-altitude bombing is not over. In the 33 minutes of the game, Pires on the left made a 45-degree cross, and Drogba inserted a favorable head swing from the back. Kanizales didn't react at all.

And he has been defending Ayala even more shocked.

Why?

When Drogba rushed up and shook his head to attack the goal, Ayala was fighting for the ball together.

Ayala's body is not the toughest among the central defenders. But it can't be bullied casually. In the face of those strong strikers, Ayala will not fall behind. But this time Ayala was really stunned.

Because Drogba and Ayala collided, Ayala flew out. And Drogba had nothing to do, and he was able to shake his head and score the goal.

"Droba, we always say that Drogba's body is the best in the Premier League. Now you can see that Ayala was hit by Drogba and flew over. Drogba deserves the name of Warcraft. If Drogba can slightly improve the accuracy of his shot, then Drogba will definitely become a world-class striker.

"Two to zero, two to zero. The opponents of the so-called death group are completely vulnerable in front of Blackburn. Black had accumulated nine points for the victory of this game. Nine points, Blackburn will enter the Champions League knockout stage for three consecutive years.

The game really made Valencia very depressed.

When have you seen this high-altitude tactic? Blackburn was completely playing high-altitude ball, and Valencia was a little dizzy.

In the midfield, Benitez made some adjustments to the team. The biggest change is to let Alberda and Baraja control the ball, but George won't give Valencia this chance.

Blackburn is still beating hard.

The middle road was completely empty, and Alonso and Hargreaves didn't come up at all. Take the ball either on the sidelines or give it directly to the striker. And it's the same high-altitude ball tactic.

Blackburn told Valencia directly that we just played highball. Can you still do this?

In the 76th minute of the game, Blackburn scored another goal. It was Drogba's header again. Duff, who was inserted on the side, shot and changed the score to 3-0.

Blackburn's performance in the Champions League is extremely strong.

How strong is it? Unexpectedly, in the group of death, three games were easily won. They all have the advantage of more than three balls and got nine points.

Nine points, Blackburn is about to appear from this group.
