Chapter 292 Oppressed to Death! (55100)

Among Manchester City's offensive players, the cooperation of short passes in a small area suddenly increased, and in many cases, the ball was played consecutively.

Near Chelsea's penalty area, Yaya Toure, Aguero, Shevchenko and David Silva rely on skillful passing and receiving, as well as the tacit understanding between each other, coupled with their excellent off-ball running , played a series of wonderful cooperation.

It's just that when the last shot was made, Aguero broke into the right side of the penalty area, and his shot was too angled, but the football brushed the far post and went out of the bottom line.

Aguero's shooting is this style. His powerful shots are rare, and most of them are shots from tricky angles. Once they hit the goal frame, the probability of scoring is very high.

And if the shot is not within the range of the goal frame, you can only watch the football slide past the goal...

Chelsea's defense on the opposite side was under a lot of pressure, but at least they didn't let the goal fall.

Chelsea's defense is not the rough fouls of the lower reaches of the Premier League. It relies more on overall cooperation, awareness and will. To some extent, it is an art.

Of course, rough defensive moves lead to fouls, and fouls can lead to set-piece opportunities for Manchester City.

To break the dense defense, the set ball is a sharp weapon.

In the Manchester City team, there are free kick masters like David Silva and Toure.

So Hiddink will not make such a mistake.

"Hiddink's defensive formation is very tight. As long as our players get the ball in the frontcourt, two players will double-team at the same time, which greatly affects our offense." Andy Cole Said.

Duncan nodded. Although Manchester City's four-man frontcourt can rely on cooperation to open up space, Chelsea's players except Drogba are all defending. With such a dense formation, the space opened up by four people will soon be filled. superior.

Chelsea's formation is compressed very flat, with three world-class midfielders lined up, Kalou and Malouda guarding the two sides, they are not pretending, but really trying to defend.

From the scene, Manchester City has the advantage, but the situation can be said to be a stalemate.

Hiddink's tactics, in particular, were very targeted. Both Yaya Toure and David Silva were closely guarded by the opponent.

Of course, Duncan did not give up so easily. He still waved his hands to let the team strengthen their cooperation. At the same time, Pedro and Lichtsteiner on the two wings strengthened their pull and opened up Chelsea's defensive formation.

There is only a thousand days to defend against thieves, not a thousand days to be a thief. As long as Manchester City has a chance to open up the situation, then Chelsea's defense will be in vain.

In order to block Manchester City's flowing offense, Chelsea's defensive players must be highly focused at all times without making the slightest mistake.

Duncan folded his arms and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Although there is still no goal, Duncan is not worried at all, because he has arranged layers of coordination tactics for Manchester City around the four-element formation.

After coaching for one season, Duncan is no longer the simple and rigid rookie coach who uses formations. He will use formations flexibly according to the situation on the court.

The core content is the small-scale teamwork of Manchester City's quartet, which runs smoothly and goes through needles, but Duncan has arranged a lot of routines in it.

For example, when the other three people moved, Yaya Toure made a fake shot and suddenly cast a cold arrow.
For example, after three or four very tacit passes, the fifth kick suddenly split the ball and gave it to Pedro;

For example, Aguero suddenly kicked the ball, passed three people in a row, suddenly made a wonderful pass with his heel, and Silva shot angrily at the ball...

……

There are all kinds of routines.

Chelsea's defensive players are always exhausted. Many people don't know how many times they have been intimate with the lawn.

The most tiring among them is the goalkeeper Petr Cech.

From the end of Chelsea's three axes and Manchester City taking over the game, the sweat on his body has not stopped.

At first it was tired and sweaty, then cold sweat.

This group of guys, this kind of cooperation is simply too terrible!
City were in control of the ball from start to finish, and their small teamwork was brilliant, their ability to create chances was too good, sending the ball into the danger zone time and time again, making everyone in Chelsea frightened.

As the goalkeeper and the last iron gate of the team, the pressure on Cech's shoulders is as great as a mountain.

Almost every time Manchester City advances their offense to the 30-meter zone, he is frightened, which makes him have to call out to his teammates more actively than usual, shouting very hard and loudly, as if this can vent part of his pressure.

Fortunately, Chelsea's players were very strong and blocked Manchester City's offensive.

And Cech played well in the opponent's shots again and again, trying to keep the goal.

It's just that Cech's heart is also beating drums, and he doesn't know when such days will end.

Manchester City is like a behemoth, covering half the sky, and the Xingchen Pavilion has a huge coercion.

The pressure on myself is getting bigger and bigger!

It's as if the defender held a large shield to defend; while the attacker went crazy, holding a sledgehammer, and knocked on it alive and well.

Under such pressure, the defensive side with the shield on their backs slowly retreated, gradually collapsing.

Cech feels that his living space is getting smaller and smaller. Although he can make wonderful saves every time, he has no idea in his heart, and he doesn't know when the next shot will come, or when he will lose the ball...

Hiddink obviously saw the changes in the situation on the field. Manchester City's offensive became more and more intense, like a storm, overwhelming the sky, and putting more and more pressure on Chelsea.

Chelsea is like a boat in a storm, slipping from a wave crest to a trough, and then being lifted up by a bigger wave.

Their whole team is struggling to support.

Maybe at some point, the Chelsea boat will be overturned.

Then the chicken and eggs are beaten.

Hiddink stood on the sidelines, wearing glasses, thought for a while, and then made a tactical arrangement.

He decided to let Drogba also retreat and participate in the defense. At the same time, Essien entered the penalty area and acted as a defensive free man, blocking eye-catching everywhere.

Chelsea's defense has shrunk even more intensively.

In Hiddink's vision, not conceding away goals is definitely the team's top priority!
In the home team stands, there was a burst of boos.

Occasionally, when the camera scans, you can still see the middle fingers raised one by one.

Manchester City fans could not help booing the visiting team when they saw Chelsea's conservative tactical arrangement.

It's ugly defensive football, right?

Even many fans who followed the team to the away game lost their voices rarely.

However, in the face of boos one after another, Hiddink did not respond, and still focused on the situation on the court.

The opinion of the fans is not very important to Hiddink.

On the football field, face is very important, and he had already left it 30 years ago.

As long as the final result of the game is within his expectations, it is nothing to Hiddink to bear some infamy.
