Chapter 787 Mu's Bus
"... In this game, Manchester United, who played at home, adopted an active offensive tactic. From the beginning of the game, they kept attacking Chelsea's goal. Chelsea chose to target defensive counterattacks. They first stabilized the defense and then planned to counterattack... For Chelsea, this is basically the norm. Other teams will park a bus in front of their goal when they have no choice, but Mourinho's team will set up a bus in front of their goal at any time."
When commentator John Motterson said this, the game had been going on for twenty-five minutes, and the score on the field was still 0:0. Overall, Manchester United had the upper hand and had many offensive opportunities, but they were unable to break through Chelsea's goal.
Chelsea's defense was already very good, and they are famous in the Premier League for their good defense. Mourinho's arrival has made Chelsea's defense reach the extreme, and it is truly integrating defense into the players' blood.
The iron-like defense, coupled with a forward like Shevchenko, who has the advantage of speed, is even more powerful when he launches a defensive counterattack.
However, although Shevchenko is fast and has good dribbling skills, she seems a little unacceptable after coming to Chelsea and has been unable to play well in the Premier League for a long time. She only scored two goals in the Premier League in the new season.
This put Shevchenko under huge public pressure. After all, he spent Chelsea’s sky-high price of 35 million pounds to poach people from AC Milan.
Abramovich spent a sky-high price to bring Shevchenko to Stamford Bridge, not only to take care of his fellow villagers, but also to recognize the opponent's outstanding performance in AC Milan, believing that this Ukrainian nuclear warhead can help Chelsea and improve Chelsea's offense.
At present, with the support of Abu, although Mourinho does not like Shevchenko very much, he has to give Shevchenko a chance repeatedly. But if this continues for a long time, Abu may gradually lose patience.

Chelsea is on the defensive side and has few offensive opportunities, so it is normal not to score no goals. Manchester United has been attacking and has many offensive opportunities but has not scored any goals, which has something to do with the performance of their core player Yin Jun.
"...Lu Yinjun tried more long shots outside the penalty area today, but his shooting sights were not very good..." Huang Jianqiang said worriedly, "But there is nothing to do. Even when shooting from a long time, there will be Chelsea players around him who interfere with the defense. In this intensity of physical confrontation, it is not easy for him to shoot correctly..."
As a Chinese commentator, you must always stand on your own player's side. Once he performs poorly, you must make excuses for him to find reasons, so that he can be considered a qualified Chinese commentator.
He doesn't need to criticize Yin Jun, because Yin Jun's past performance is good enough, and these good performances allow him to have the gold medal of avoiding death now.
At this time, it is definitely a very pretentious thing to talk about objective and neutrality, and it can even be said to be Shabi.
He Wei also made reasons for Yin Jun's frequent long shots outside the penalty area: "In this game, Chelsea, which used defensive counterattacks, strengthened their defense in the penalty area. Most of the time, their players contracted deeply, the penalty area was crowded with people, and there was almost no room for activity, so it was normal for Yin Jun to shoot long shots..."
……………………
Shevchenko turned his attention to Yin Jun, feeling a little proud - he guessed that Yin Jun's long shots in this game increased significantly. Because he reminded his teammates, Chelsea is ready now and has not defended Yin Jun at all. His long shots have never hit the door frame at all!
Seeing Yin Jun who had just been frustrated by another shot, Shevchenko smiled slightly in his heart when he saw Yin Jun who had just been shot and held his head with both hands. He felt that the anger he had been eliminated by Yin Jun in the Champions League quarter-finals last year was finally released.
Goalkeeper Cudicini, who was standing in front of Chelsea's goal, retracted his gaze from behind the goal. The caddie had already thrown the football into the stadium at the first time, but he ignored it and turned his eyes to Yin Jun, who was a little confused.
He has played against Yin Jun once or twice. I remember that Yin Jun’s long shot should not be at this level. However, since the beginning of the game, Yin Jun has already had three long shots, but look at what he shot...
A three-legged long shot didn't hit the door frame at once, and the kick just now was even more outrageous.
He made a save in the first two long shots. Although he didn't make a save, as a goalkeeper, this is enough to express his importance to Yin Jun's long shot.
For this third kick, he didn't even have the interest to raise his hand and just turned his head to watch the football fly to the stands behind him.
Is it because his teammates defended him too well, or because he was not in shape today, which led to his performance being greatly out of standard?
Kudicini shook his head, picked up the ball that rolled to his feet, and prepared to kick the ball. If he didn't drive the ball, the referee would think that he was deliberately delaying the time, and there were already sporadic booing in the stands.
……………………
"This is not Yin's normal level." In front of Manchester United's coach's seat, assistant coach Queros shook his head, "Even if someone is in close defense when he shoots, he won't play like this..."
Ferguson also knew Yin Jun very well, and he said calmly: "He should hope to take this opportunity to confuse his opponent and make the opponent think that his condition is quite average today. In this game, Chelsea strengthened his defense in the penalty area and did not leave much room for Yin to move in the penalty area. His long-range shot can be used. But now, Mourinho should have made arrangements for Yin Jun's long-range shot. Chelsea players are obviously focusing on defending Yin Jun's long-range shot... I hope that his performance can make Chelsea's defensive players relax their guard..."
When he said this, he also glanced at Chelsea's head coach Portuguese Mourinho. Mourinho stood on the sidelines and watched the game without any expression, and there was no emotion in his face about the current situation.
It's normal. The game has only started in less than 30 minutes. No one can tell what will happen next.
In fact, Mourinho is feeling relieved for his players - they have truly faithfully implemented their tactical arrangements, and even more than they have done. He has done more than he asked. Before the game, he asked them to focus on Yin Jun to see how they performed in the game. Even Yin Jun went to the penalty area to shoot from a long distance away... They just played like this. When Chelsea used strict defense to make Manchester United's offense come back in vain again and again, they will definitely become more and more impatient. Then it will be time for Chelsea to counterattack.
Now you just need to endure!
