Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 771 Mourinho's arrangement

When Robben passed the ball just now, Bernard made the same mistake as the Chelsea players defending the corner kick just now. That is, after getting used to the opponent's single attack mode, the opponent seemed a little dazed when he changed the attack method. There is only one reason for these experienced professional players to make such mistakes, and that is that the previous opponents put too much pressure on them.

Just like Newcastle's continuous attack just now caused Chelsea's defenders to become rigid in their thinking, since Robben has been attacking on this side with his personal breakthrough just now, Bernard subconsciously thought that Robben would attack this time. He would still shoot or pass the ball after forcing a breakthrough, but when he saw that Robben chose to pass the ball directly, his brain short-circuited for a while, and when he reacted, Robben had already rushed past him, Deco's pass also went over his head.

But the short circuit happened at that moment. Bernard immediately turned around and chased after Robben, just in time to see Robben raise his left foot!
Near the corner of the small penalty area, Robben's shot definitely has the strength to make Cech have no time to react!

Bernard immediately chased after him. Fortunately, he reacted very quickly. When Robben raised his foot to shoot, he had already rushed to less than two meters behind Robben, and flew over without thinking!

He did not intend to foul, but extended his foot slightly from the side and rear, intending to block Robben's shot, because he believed that as long as he delayed, the other teammates would immediately return to their positions, and Robben would not be able to shoot again. What a chance.

But after he made a tackle, Robben suddenly stopped shooting, and kicked the ball to the side, intentionally or unintentionally sending his feet to Bernard's feet!
It was too late for Bernard to stop, and Robben immediately fell into Newcastle's penalty area. At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded!

Ball, who has almost booked the best referee in the Premier League this season, ran over and pointed to the penalty spot!

Several Newcastle defenders began to complain to Ball, but even if they knew it, there was no doubt about the foul. Although it was obvious that Robben sent his foot up, it was indeed a foul by Bernard. .

"Damn it, next time you do this again, I'll really break your leg!" Bernard thought hard in his heart, but he also admired Robben's courage. It's rare enough for Zhong to send his leg up to the opponent to tackle in order to get a penalty.

Lampard walked up with the ball and put the ball firmly on the penalty spot.

Poll dispersed the Newcastle players before blowing the whistle for a penalty.

Lampard takes a few steps back, runs up and shoots!
Cech judged the wrong direction, he jumped to the left, but the ball shot to the middle!

"One to one! Chelsea equalized the score! Now they have recovered the advantage. If the score is maintained until the end of the game, then Chelsea will win the league championship this season with [-] points!"

After Lampard scored this penalty, the rest of the first half seemed to be uneventful. After Nie Fei's long-distance hanging goal was higher than the crossbar, the referee Ball blew the first half. The end whistle.

**************************************
"Oliver, that penalty wasn't your fault, anyone else would have shoveled it in that situation."

After returning to the locker room, Mourinho saw Bernard sitting alone in the corner with a look of self-blame, so he comforted him. One of the old men, Bernard has a pretty good relationship with other people in the team. Although he has caused the same scandal as Bramble before, he is much more honest now, and the black boy is usually very simple and honest. Yes, and he did his best in training and competition, so Mourinho still appreciates him.

After comforting Bernard, Mourinho found a place to sit down by himself, watching the players doing their own things, while carefully thinking about whether there were any loopholes in his tactics.

After thinking for a while, Mourinho still felt that there was nothing wrong with his tactics. Although he was equalized by his opponent in the first half, it was almost just an accident. More importantly, Benitez still Without discovering the tactics they arranged, the center of gravity of Chelsea's midfield defense has begun to shift to the two wings, and the center defense has begun to appear weak.

However, Robben's several raids still attracted enough attention from Mourinho. Obviously, Bernard can't stop Robben's breakthrough now. In fact, with Robben's state this season, there are few in the world. A full-back who can defend him, not to mention that Bernard's strength is not world-class, he can only be regarded as a relatively outstanding strength.

Thinking of this, Mourinho raised his head, just in time to see that the Newcastle players had already finished their business, so he coughed dryly, cleared his throat, and let the players focus on themselves by the way.

"We played well in the first half. Although we conceded a goal, it was just an accident." Mourinho said seemingly indifferently.

His words caused a lot of discussion among the Newcastle players: "Yes, that Robben is really shameless. He actually used this method to get a penalty. It seems that we can also learn this trick in the future."

"How can we do such a thing." The one next to him immediately retorted: "But Robben is not timid, isn't he afraid of getting hurt? You must know that he has suffered a lot of injuries this season."

Speaking of this, Newcastle players really admire Robben. If they were replaced by frequent injuries, they would not take this risk. Professional players love feathers, even if they see Bernard's Tackles shouldn't do much damage and won't do it.

"Okay, there is no need to say anything, after all, what he did was within the scope of the rules..." Mourinho clapped his hands and focused the players' attention again: "But we can't be let down by him like this." Do it again, and we'll lose all of our face."

The Newcastle players nodded. Professional players also need face. You can beat me, but you can't use this method to deal with me over and over again.

"So we have to seal his point." Mourinho nodded and turned to Essien: "Michael, you may have to work harder in the second half...Of course I also know that you are not afraid of hard work. In the second half, you just keep an eye on me." Robben, which side he is on, you go to which side to help defend, if he is on the left, you go to the left, don't worry about the right."

"What about Duff on the right?" Nie Fei thought in his heart, but he didn't ask because he knew that Mourinho must have his intentions in making such arrangements.

In fact, what Mourinho wants is to seal the most threatening Robben of Chelsea's two wings, because even if Chelsea's two wings in the second half are still the same as in the second half of the first half, Duff is on the right. On the left, Essien can block the most threatening Robben by going to the left, because Peter Pan of the Netherlands has always been afraid of defensive players with excellent physical fitness and relatively brutal movements, and without Essien , Duff may not be able to play any tricks on the right, because he is not as direct a threat to the goal as Robben. Although the defense of Maicon and Nie Fei is not good, they are not paper, let alone the middle. Dawson and Lucio can also help fill in at any time.

"In the second half, our offensive tactics remained the same. We also started to attack from the two wings in turn. From the perspective of the first half, Chelsea hadn't discovered our plan to attack the middle, so the advantage is still on our side." Mu Mu Rinho went on to say: "Play from the two wings first. Of course it is best to score goals. If you can't score goals, you must suppress the opponent's offense and make them exhausted. Then after 10 minutes, start to concentrate all the offense in the middle. Bailey and Nie Fei took turns to organize the attack in the middle, and Ibrahimovic also retreated to the middle to get the ball and then made a strong attack, catching them by surprise!"

"What if there is still no goal?" Nie Fei couldn't help asking.

Mourinho glanced at him: "Continue to attack until a goal is scored! Even if they start to concentrate their defense in the middle, because they always defend back and forth on the two wings at the beginning, there must be some discomfort. , We just want to seize this opportunity and score the winning goal! Also, after taking the lead, we can’t relax and continue to suppress until we gain a huge advantage or the game is over, understand?”

"Understood!" The Newcastle players roared in unison.

"Then start now!" Mourinho looked at his watch, and it happened that the 15-minute break had arrived: "There are still 45 minutes between now and the end of the game. Nice podium, don't want to see someone else on the podium!"

The players rushed out of the locker room waving their arms. After all the players had left, Pei Wei came to Mourinho's side and said with a smile: "Let's go, Jose, now we are leaving."

"I know." Mourinho nodded, then stood up: "This time, I'll see what Raphael is going to do...I think he must not have noticed my arrangement."
