Chapter 608 The first day of missing Torres
In the first half of the game, with Ye Qi's pass and shot, Leicester City led Chelsea at home [-]-[-]. Soon, the second half of the game also began.
As soon as the second half started, Mourinho made adjustments.
After all, we are now two goals behind, and Leicester City's defense is so tight. It is impossible not to invest forces on the offensive end.
Oscar, Brazil's attacking midfielder and the core of the frontcourt combination, came off the bench. He replaced the versatile midfielder Ramirez.
In this way, Fabregas' position will be slightly deeper, and Oscar will play the attacking midfielder position.
Oscar's technical ability is relatively good, he can pass and break, and when necessary, he can also step up and play as a nine-and-a-half or even a shadow forward.
Therefore, Mourinho's intention to strengthen the offense is relatively obvious.
When Ramirez returned to the bench, Nigerian midfielder Mikel smiled.
Since Mourinho entered the palace for the second time, his playing opportunities have declined every season, and he has changed from the main player to a substitute.
This season, Chelsea's current three midfielders are often on the bench.When defending, it is a combination of Fabregas, Matic and Ramirez, and when attacking, just replace Ramirez with Oscar.
Mikel has nothing to do with him!
So when the Chelsea locker room was "thundering" this season, he even implicitly expressed his dissatisfaction with Mourinho in media interviews.
Mikel was a player Mourinho bought at the end of Chelsea's first period, and he was indeed the main player that year.It's just that in recent years, his training attitude and game performance have deteriorated a lot.
At the same time, he can be regarded as a veteran of nine dynasties at Chelsea, because he has experienced nine head coaches in total!If you include Mourinho's second entry into the palace, this is the tenth head coach.
This shows how many people boss Abramovich changed after Mourinho left Chelsea for the first time.
Ramirez saw Mikel's smile, but quickly covered himself with a towel, not bothering to pay attention to this guy.
There are indeed some problems in Chelsea's locker room during this period, and even boss Terry can hardly suppress them.
The main conflict between the main coach Mourinho and the star player Hazard, then coupled with the prosecution of team doctor Eva, and finally there are guys like Mikel making trouble.
After Oscar came on the field, Chelsea's offense has obviously strengthened a lot. The most intuitive manifestation is that the Blues' number of set kicks has increased.
In the minute, Oscar's breakthrough with the ball in the middle caused a foul on Drinkwater, and Brother Drinkwater received a yellow card.
Following Cesc Fabregas' direct free kick shot over the crossbar.
In 3 minutes, Hazard made a strong breakthrough from the wing and passed Albrighton and Fox, but in the end the ball was intercepted by Kanter who was assisting in defense.
"Hazard couldn't get any advantage from Kanter today..." Zhan Jun said.
Zhang chuckled and said, "The key is, he still doesn't believe in evil!"
At this moment, Mourinho looked at Diego Costa and Hazard, who were not performing particularly well in the second half, and turned around and asked assistant coach Holland to call Falcao, Pedro and others to warm up.
During this period, Chelsea strengthened their offense, whether it was crosses from the bottom, Hazard and Willian's breakthroughs, or even Cesc Fabregas and Matic's late insertions, which led to Leicester City's defense The task is relatively heavy.
During this period, the Blue Fox offense led by Ye Qi and Vardy did not perform much.
In the 8th minute, Albrighton and Fox blocked Hazard's breakthrough.The ball king then passed the ball to Cesc Fabregas who came to meet him from the middle.
Fabregas drew Drinkwater up and then passed the ball to Oscar in the frontcourt.
When Oscar gets the ball, he immediately has to do a wall-kicking coordination with Diego Costa. Although Costa's nationality is Spanish now, he is actually Brazilian.This has a certain tacit understanding with Oscar, the Brazilian midfielder.
Passing the ball to Diego Costa who was retreating, Oscar immediately moved forward between the two central defenders.
Diego Costa took the ball and immediately planned to pass it back to Oscar, but at this moment Kante came out. As soon as Diego Costa sent the ball out, Kante intercepted it!
"Kante!! Predicted Costa's passing route very accurately!" Zhan Jun said.
Zhang Hehe said: "There are still some problems with Costa's passing of the ball. He can actually notice Kante from that position. Don't blindly kick the wall to cooperate at this time. Oscar's movement and let the opponent guess that you are going to return." Passed on."
Kante is not a midfield commander, so as soon as he got the ball, he handed it to Mahrez who came in from the wing.
Mahrez took a long stride and penetrated directly behind Hazard. Following Rahman, who ignored the wing, he took the ball and cut inside to launch a counterattack!
Matic returned to defense and ran towards Mahrez. Mahrez did not make direct contact with the opponent, but quickly passed the ball to Vardy who came back from the frontcourt.
"Vardy... Leicester City's quick counterattack is coming again!"
The first time Vardy got the ball, Ivanovic leaned forward. Vardy seized the opportunity and passed it directly behind Ivanovic's Terry.
Ye Qi saw the pass from his teammate and quickly ran towards the landing point of the football.
Terry was not far away from Ye Qi and ran towards the landing point of the football.But his speed couldn't keep up, and in the end Ye Qi got the football.
"Ye Qi!! Look at this ball..."
Before Zhan Jun finished speaking, Terry had already felt that Ye Qi, who had got the ball, was about to pass him, so he immediately kicked Ye Qi's supporting foot.
Ye Qi just wanted to use a fake move to shake the opponent, but was kicked to the supporting foot and unable to maintain balance, and fell to the ground.
Terry immediately kicked the ball out of the sideline.
"Beep—"
Referee Oliver immediately blew the whistle to indicate a foul, and then gave Terry a yellow card.
Terry shouted something angrily toward the front court.
Of course, it was not directed at the referee, but rather dissatisfied with the opponent's dangerous counterattack opportunities every time the ball was lost in the frontcourt.
It only takes two or three seconds for the opponent to hit the center back from the backcourt, and he can even face the goalkeeper in five seconds!
"Fake! You guys counterattacked on the spot in the frontcourt, and you couldn't get a foul! They're just wood!"
Terry's dissatisfaction is justified because they are Chelsea.Didn’t Chelsea put too much energy into the counter-attack when they lost the ball, and yet they were beaten directly by the opponent?
Is this still called Chelsea?This is not even as good as Arsenal!
Terry misses Torres a little at this moment, because Torres is very active in pressing in the frontcourt.
"This was a tactical foul, and Terry made the right choice." Zhan Jun said.
Ye Qi sat on the ground and smiled helplessly. Just now, he thought the ball could pass Terry, and then it was a one-shot.
Unexpectedly, Terry chose a simple and crude, but very useful trick.
Although it hurt a little when the supporting foot was kicked, the injury was not a serious problem.Terry didn't mean to hurt anyone intentionally, he just didn't want to let himself go.
