I work as a coach at Stamford Bridge

Chapter 72

There is not much time left for Chelsea, and Yunqiao made such adjustments because the recent games were too tight.

On May 5, the second round of the Champions League started again, this time Chelsea faced Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

In the first round, Yunqiao played 1:1 at Anfield. This score is a good thing for Chelsea. They only need to play 0:0 at home to advance because they have an away goal.For Benitez, if they want to go to the next level, they must score at Stamford Bridge.

If Chelsea really wants to play defense, there are not many teams in Europe that can definitely break through the gate guarded by Cech.

The question now is whether Yunqiao will play defensive counterattacks. Judging from the number of games played by coach Yunqiao, although he did not do much for victory, there are really very few defensive counterattacks.Yunqiao has been considered by many fans and experts as a template for a new generation of offensive coaches.Although he is still young.

Compared with the first round of this game, there is only one change in Yunqiao, that is, Makelele started.Lampard also played this game. Yunqiao has not allowed him to train these days, but before today's game, Lampard took the initiative to ask for it.

Benitez also changed two players in the starting lineup this time. Benayoun replaced Babel, Riise replaced Relio, and the formation became 352, which is the players in the second half of the first round.

It seems that Benitez wants to score at Stamford Bridge.

They will lose if they don't score. Benitez is also a decisive person. At such a time, he will not hide and pinch, and put on a full-scale offensive posture.

Yunqiao is the same as usual, a set of 433 travels around the world.

After the opening, Liverpool began to want to control the midfield. After all, Benitez put all his troops in the midfield this time.It was difficult for Chelsea's 3-man midfielder to withstand the 5 players on the opposite side and was restrained by Liverpool.

In the 5th minute, Riise took a shot from an unguarded position outside the penalty area. The ball was still several yards away from the penalty area. Terry and the others did not step forward to interfere.Riise is also known for his long-range shots. He scored an own goal at the last moment in the last game. Although the team did not say anything, it is also the reason for the team to be in such a predicament.He also gave [-]% of his strength today, just to score a goal.

Cech did not dare to catch the oncoming football, but hit the ball with both fists. The speed of the ball was indeed very fast. It hurt Cech's fist .The football flew far outside the penalty area and Drogba just came back to catch it.

However, Drogba did not lead the midfielder. Facing the siege of Mascherano and Carragher, Drogba had no choice but to give the ball to Mascherano. Torres in the penalty area, but Cech rushed out and caught the ball with both hands.

However, in this game, the Liverpool players really entered the game faster than the Chelsea players. Maybe they haven't let go of the excitement in their hearts after winning the league championship.

In 9 minutes, Liverpool almost rewrote the game record.Gerrard and Wider snatched the football from Joe Cole's feet and passed it to Mascherano, who then distributed it to Xavi Alonso who came to receive the ball. With a kick to the wall, he broke through Makelele's defense.At this time, Chelsea's penalty area was 3 vs. 4 against Liverpool.

Terry was the first to move, rushing up and trying to surround Alonso with Carvalho one after the other, while Ashley Cole and Ferreira faced Gerrard and Torres respectively, so Alonso, Obviously seeing that Terry had come up, he didn't pass the ball in a hurry to find the team, he held Terry with his hand, and kicked his right foot to the bottom of the football before Carvalho came up.

The speed of the ball is not very fast, but the arc has just passed the top of Carvalho's head, even if he wants to jump up, there is no time.The position Alonso was looking for was the line of Torres' attack. Ferreira didn't see the line of the football at the same time. He had been watching Torres. When he saw it, the football was behind him. Torres directly pressed On Ferreira's body, he jumped up and hit the football on the top of his head, and the position he hit happened to be the lower left corner, which is also the opposite direction of Cech.

Naturally, Ferreira couldn't allow Torres to hit him easily, and hit him from below. Just like that, Torres didn't hit the goal accurately, and the football hit the post and popped out of the bottom line.

It's a pity that Benitez flicked his right hand off the court and missed the goal.

Yunqiao is not very happy, and now he is only ahead of his opponent in an away game, which is not very safe. It would be better if he could score at home, but the player's condition is really bad now, and he wants to guard against it. It's not an easy thing to do in a game, you still have to attack.

The best defense is the offense.

Call Joe Cole over, "You two wingers will also come back later to help defend, and we will play long passes."

This is a simple offensive method that all Premier League teams will play. The midfielder directly kicks the ball to find the forward players in the frontcourt, and let the forwards grab the ball and attack by themselves.

After the re-kick-off, Joe Cole and Arshavin took the initiative to step back, assisting Lampard and Ballack to sort out the midfield, and regained control of Liverpool's midfield.Now he finally stood firm in the midfield.

In the 15th minute, after Makelele intercepted Gerrard's ball, without hesitation, he went straight to Drogba. Drogba gently pushed Arbeloa next to him. After the opponent lost his position, Drogba He stopped the football with his chest, turned around and wanted to go around the penalty area in the opposite direction and rush in, but Arbeloa didn't give him this chance. Seeing that Drogba wanted to turn around, he gave him a hand.

Because he was not the last defensive player, the referee gave a yellow card and a free kick.Still a bit far from the goal, Ballack did not shoot directly, but lobbed the ball into the penalty area, which was caught by Reina with both hands.

This made Benitez uncomfortable. Seeing his opponent like this, he had to fight against himself.Let Liverpool now have a 3-back and not let Chelsea explode?
Now Benitez hesitated, and he couldn't make up his mind, should he attack or defend?

Yunqiao didn't give him a chance to think about it, and when Chelsea's offense started, it couldn't stop.

At 25 minutes, Arshavin gave Chelsea another corner kick. Joe Cole's corner kick was good, but it still allowed Skrtel to head out of the penalty area. On the field, Skrtel may be the tallest that's it.

However, Carvalho, who was standing outside the penalty area, made a volley, but the ball went directly to the stands.

Then, Drogba tackled Mascherano in the midfield, and the referee awarded him a topaz card. In these two games, Drogba failed to take advantage of Mascherano. Instead, let the opponent freeze himself, which made Drogba very depressed.
