In terms of the counterattack effect alone, Arsenal must play better than Chelsea. There are two factors that determine the general situation of the game. Arsenal is psychologically prepared to play counterattack, but Chelsea does not. The team that is living in the dream, they can use anti-counterattack to ravage the Gunners at Stamford Bridge. Another factor is that Arsenal's creativity and players' individual performance in the counter-attack are better, and Chelsea play very well when there is no counter-attack space. Uncomfortable, not very comfortable.

This is easy to understand, even if the two teams fight back, they still face the opponent's tight defense.

But Arsenal played a lot of games that broke the dense defense at least last season. Even if it is not a good counterattack opportunity, they can just play it as a fast break, while Chelsea's offense based on a wide space, in the case of an unadapted environment Under the circumstances, their performance has declined.

Qin Xiong is aware of the difficulty of Arsenal breaking the wasteland, and Mourinho is also aware of Chelsea's inability to adapt to this game.

As for the dangerous situation just now, if Chelsea slightly increases their offensive investment, it may give Arsenal a better chance to fast break, and if they fail to secure the goal, they will declare a loss.

This is the key reason why he hesitated to order the team to strengthen the offensive.

Chelsea began to create threats in other ways. From the 65th to 70th minutes of the game, Drogba took three consecutive kicks from the side to find Drogba. They were cleared by Toure and Campbell with headers respectively.

"Chelsea lacks effective positional warfare methods and faces Arsenal's tight defense. Their long-range shots from the outside have become rare, and Arsenal can use long-range shots in front of the penalty area to threaten Chelsea's goal anyway."

Qin Xiong started to slow down the tempo, and it didn't make much sense to play fast. The opponent's defense line tended to be static. If he was fast, he would easily mess up his tempo.

His eyes were always calm and calm, and his thoughts were running fast.

Break Chelsea's intensive defense, personal breakthrough.Set ball, long shot.

Ninety-nine out of ten passes and cuts are definitely not a threat. Chelsea's defensive line cutting is still very successful. I have to admit that Mourinho is a defensive master.

What about personal breakthroughs?

The effect is not good either. Being able to break through Essien once does not mean that he will be successful every time.That requires a specific environment.In addition, breaking through the midfield line does not mean that the back line can be destroyed. Chelsea's back line adjustment is also calm and orderly.

Set ball?

There are almost no chances of set kicks. Arsenal have a small number of people attacking and put little pressure on Chelsea. As long as they compress the space and encircle, they can end Arsenal's attack. It is not worthwhile to take the risk of giving Arsenal a free kick in the frontcourt.

Then only the long shot remains.

In fact, the generals of Arsenal also knew this, so they still took long shots when they had the opportunity in the second half.It's just that the quality is not high, and any long-range shots that can hit the goal will be easily resolved by Cech.

After much deliberation, Qin Xiong still had to work hard on the long shot.

For a long-range shot to be a threat, the basic requirement is to hit the goal. The premise of hitting the goal is not to be blocked by the opponent's player. On this basis, the opponent's goalkeeper must be unable to catch it!

In the 76th minute of the game, Pires dribbled in the middle after receiving a pass from Fabregas on the left side of the midfield. He consciously created opportunities for Qin Xiong.Then to liberate Qin Xiong, it is necessary to cover and restrain him.

He dribbles to attract Lampard's attention.Anyway, it is impossible for Chelsea's midfielder to let Pires with the ball go.

As soon as Lampard came near Pires, Pires passed the ball to Qin Xiong.Then he quickly moved forward, and interspersed with running positions to contain Essien's defensive attention.

Qin Xiong observed the distance between Lampard and himself. For a while, Lampard was unable to defend himself, while Essien was restrained by Pires, and he could dribble forward for a certain distance at a slow speed.

When dribbling forward, his observation point is not limited to Chelsea's back line, but directly to Cech's position.

Qin Xiong's eyes suddenly became sharp during the movement of Arsenal and Chelsea's offensive and defensive players.

He was on the right side of the frontcourt, about 35 yards from the goal. Makelele ensured that Essien could mark Pires, and then moved to this side, moving laterally, waiting for Qin Xiong to pass the ball, and he would see Grab the interception on time.

Henry was waiting for an opportunity behind Makelele, ready to turn offside at any time, and Carvalho was close to Henry.

Qin Xiong, can't see Cech!

Henry, Carvalho, Makelele, the three of them staggered to block the parallel field of vision, which happened to block Qin Xiong and the football at his feet from the field of vision with Petr Cech.

Qin Xiong secretly said in his heart: It's now!

boom!

Qin Xiong's right foot kicked the football out!

Cech has always maintained a high degree of concentration. The most threatening point on Arsenal's front line must be Henry, so his position in front of the goal must be fine-tuned according to Henry's position.

This time he was standing slightly to the right of the goal, and he was afraid that Qin Xiong would accidentally send a through ball to make Henry form an attack, so that he would be able to abandon the goal faster and block it.

But at this moment, he suddenly couldn't see Qin Xiong who was holding the ball farther in front, nor could he see the football.

His vision was blocked by Henry, Carvalho, and Makelele.

This feeling made him very uneasy, he didn't know what would happen!

Suddenly, he seemed to see that the picture stopped. Henry, Carvalho, and Makelele all had a tendency to turn around. Terry was shrinking towards the middle, and he looked nervous, and his movements were all subconscious. Moving sideways, and then jumping sideways, is to use the body to intercept and block!

In the end what happened? !

Cech's uneasiness reached its peak in an instant!

When he saw the football, he seemed to see a meteor piercing the sky!

He quickly predicted the direction of Terry's movement, and then moved to the left of the goal.

Qin Xiong's long-range shot was a one-and-a-half-foot high ball, and Terry had already reacted quickly. He directly planned to use his body to block Qin Xiong's long-range shot, but unfortunately, after he jumped, the football rushed across his scalp. !

Cech can only subconsciously make the best effort based on the direction he saw the football flying!

There is not much time left for him to react!

But at the moment when he flew out, Cech opened his eyes wide and was shocked!

WTF!

Bounce the earth!

Cech's palm has been stretched out, and in order to ensure the flying distance, the center of gravity of his body is lower. His palm can block the football in a three-dimensional straight line!

Unfortunately, the football fell after entering the penalty area. The football, which was originally a half-high ball, bounced off the line of the small penalty area. After bouncing again, it just flew past Cech's palm, less than 20 centimeters away!

It was almost scraping the inside of the left post of the goal.

Cech fell on the goal line, he didn't turn his head to look back, he knew the goal had been declared lost!

Stamford Bridge was instantly dead silent! (to be continued~^~)
