Chapter 428 This and that again (daily transition)
As the football moves on the turf.
The cheers that erupted from the home stands flooded the green field like a torrent.
"Manchester City has the ball."
"Five Chelsea frontcourt players rushed through the center circle. Is this still the bus we are familiar with?"
"A crowded center circle."
"Both sides are fighting in high positions!"
Diego Costa trash-talked Fernandes.
David Silva swung right and left, got rid of Hazard's entanglement, and quickly distributed the ball to the wing.
Kyle Walker, wearing the Manchester City jersey, is like a bulldozer!
After receiving the ball, he suddenly moved forward.
accelerate!
When passing through the 40-meter area of Chelsea's half, two tall figures rushed over quickly.
Li Kang and Rudiger.
One blocks the inside line and the other blocks the outside line.
Walker didn't have the slightest desire to make a strong move, so he stopped suddenly and hurriedly knocked the ball behind him.
"Why is Stones in this position?"
"He plays more like a defensive midfielder now!"
"The advantages of the melon-style high defensive line release the coverage of a central defender."
“Nice ground transfer!”
Snapped!
Stones' short passing, vision, and awareness have improved a lot after a season of training.
The football sticks to the turf and moves diagonally to the center.
David Silva and Cesc Fabregas appeared on the passing line at the same time.
The two are talented midfielders who accompanied the rise of the Matador dynasty.
The former seizes a better receiving position.
The moment he was about to stop the ball, he gently raised his foot to give way.
Missed it.
The football ignored the confrontation between the two and continued to roll towards its destination.
"pretty!"
"De Bruyne!"
"Kante is here too!"
"Data shows that in the match between the two last season, De Bruyne had the upper hand, but the clip of Kante chasing back and stealing the ball went viral on the Internet."
"The highlights have misled many fans... wonderful, half-turning past someone and then sending a diagonal pass!"
The audience did not see De Bruyne's movements clearly for a moment.
The brief visual information is transmitted to the brain and becomes: the football clicked between De Bruyne and Kanter, and then bounced to the left!
width.
Advantages of width.
Guardiola adopted an extreme formation of 3-1-4-2, which gave Manchester City more ways to avoid strangulation during the advancement process. The advantage of six attack points can be opened up in an instant by speeding up.
The light blue torrent quickly spread to the dangerous area of Chelsea!
"Sane takes the ball and crosses from this position?"
"Aguero's counterfeit run was successful in countering offside!"
"Caballero's position is too far back."
"What an opportunity for Manchester City!"
...
During his time at Atletico Madrid, Aguero attracted fans for his playing style. He was a true offensive core and an all-around center who could break out, pass, lead and shoot. He often solved battles by himself.
What about scoring goals against three people in a row, what about hanging upside down in the crowd, what about hitting the wall continuously at the extreme... What about commanding and pushing... What about soul-through balls, he performed all kinds of god-level performances that were overflowing with aura.
It is not uncommon to have a single-handed game to turn the tide.
At that time, Atletico Madrid's overall strength was in a downturn, and this South American genius had a heavy task.
After he came to the Premier League, he officially transformed into a pure shooter.
...
Etihad Stadium.
Blues fans were extremely nervous.
Blue Moon fans cheered.
Aguero, who used his movement to create a space advantage, dribbled the ball to the top of the penalty area without any interference!
Caballero looked extremely embarrassed in front of the Chelsea goal.
Beep!
The sudden whistle interrupted everyone's expectations.
"The linesman raises the flag!"
"Offside?"
"Ah! Judging from the replay, Aguero is indeed in an offside position!"
"Failed to counter offside!"
Aguero looked helpless. He walked towards the female linesman and kept chattering.
The moment of approach.
He reached out and touched the female referee's neck.
All kinds of boos suddenly sounded from the stands on all sides.
...
Studio.
Barrage flying.
- [Why does this guy always touch the female referee? He has done this kind of thing before! 】
-【Greasy!】
-【South American Oil King.】
-[The referee won’t give a card? The last time Diego Costa touched the male referee, he even got a card!]
-[Chelsea’s game is very dangerous, the goalkeeper’s positioning problem is very serious, the formation is high, why is he so late?]
...
Sideline.
Tuchel and Guardiola sealing the deal.
It's like a battle of wits, or like an aunt quarreling.
...
Caballero took the ball out of the backcourt from an offside position.
A little bit of pressure.
Manchester City's high attack was fierce.
Fortunately, David Luiz has good skills with his feet and the ball is delivered quickly.
After a game of oppression and counter-oppression with the omission of a few hundred words of "this and this and that"...
Chelsea's backcourt still passed the ball to Li Kang's feet.
From God’s perspective, we also went through a deconstruction of high-line position defense with “this and this and that” omitting a few hundred words.
The Etihad Stadium once again erupted in cheers.
"Pay attention, Kyle Walker has a huge retreat range!"
"Manchester City has reorganized its defense with a back four!"
"Chelsea slowed down their pace."
...
Li Kang cut the ball backwards with the inside of his foot, and with a "magic circle of love", he got rid of David Silva's press.
Snap!
The football went to Diego Costa who dropped back to provide support.
Feiniao and Stones were also "pulled" out by him.
"The Chelsea striker made a mistake in stopping the ball... No! It was a beautiful response!"
"Killing two birds with one stone, not only opened up the defense, but also completed the wall-to-wall coordination with Li Kang!"
Diego Costa did not stop the ball due to interference.
Fortunately, he was on his back.
A flick of the football.
It happened to bounce onto Li Kang who was running forward and cutting in.
Li Kang did not slow down, took advantage of the situation and continued to rush forward.
Diego Costa did not rush forward, but continued to retreat.
Follow Tuchel's deployment.
I have to constantly switch between the "attacking forward" and "lying forward" forms during the game.
Manchester City's left wing was in a state of turmoil.
Walker, who switched to fullback status, quickly joined forces with Kompany to intercept the Blues' new core!
The local space is extremely crowded!
"No hard thrusts!"
"Li Kang knocked the ball with his right foot to Hazard who was stretched to the outermost line!"
"Azar can't get through either... There are too many people in this area, it's too crowded!"
"He chose to pass back!"
"Back pass to Diego Costa!"
“The thinking is very clear!”
"The three of them cooperated continuously, stumbling, and saw that the ball was about to be lost at any time!"
Li Kang accelerated and broke through the rib space of Walker and Kompany.
Three steps into the restricted area.
Diego Costa, the "lying forward" who was trailing behind, kicked the ball.
Boom!
Another interference from Stones!
The passing force is too strong!
The line is off!
The bottom line is about to be drawn!
"Oh... Tuhel didn't ask Lu Zhishen to do embroidery?"
"Fortunately, Li Kang's feet are long enough!"
"Falling to the ground and hooking the ball...sweeping to the goal!"
From God's perspective.
Diego Costa's deep retreat took away Fernandes and Stones.
Kyle Walker and Kompany were also broken by themselves and Hazard!
Pedro on the right, the opponent only has Otamendi left!
...
Sideline.
Tuchel looked excited.
He believed that he had found a balance between tactical ideals and Li Kang.
Just kick it!
Use "position blur" to defeat "position blur"!
The other side.
Guardiola was so surprised that he covered his mouth with his hands.
...
"Right!"
"Pedro!"
"Ghostly movement!"
"Get rid of Otamendi!"
"Empty door!"
"Oh, the legs are still too short!"
The toes of La Masia's demon sword failed to reach the football...
Night falls.
Waves of exclamations and lamentations enveloped the Etihad Stadium.
Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief: Li, who had lost his center of gravity, still sent a cross to the ground that was confusing, and he almost had no time to adjust his position.
Pedro was a little embarrassed.
He quickly got up, trotted to the bottom line on the left side of the goal, and pulled Li Kang up.
...
Studio.
-[What's the situation? Both sides are playing tricks, but they just don't score?]
-[If you don’t believe me, the big ball is cold, Diego Costa, he can’t do fancy things, Zhang Fei is embroidering, it’s just a direct pass sent by luck.]
-[I think this is Tuchel's feint attack on the strong side, he likes to do this kind of thing in Dortmund.]
-[Let me analyze the situation and tactical game for you: this way...this way...and that way, do you understand? 】
-【I understand, these two teams are so awesome! Li Mingdeng is so handsome!】
...
Li Kang was pulled up by Pedro.
The system prompt sounded quietly.
[Ding! Teammate detected - Pedro's friendship with you increases and the bond is established! 】
[Blue Bond: Demon Sword Unsheathed Lv1!]
[Bond effect: Your breakthrough and arc control have been slightly improved, and Pedro feels a few months younger.]
[The effect only takes effect when two people play at the same time.]
[When the bond is established for the first time, some of your abilities will be restored to their optimal state. (Only once in the whole game)]
The shadow energy in Li Kang's brain instantly filled up.
Full of blood again?
Originally, as time passed, not a drop of energy was lost.
...
Kompany has obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Dead ball phase.
When he saw Li Kang walking past him, the grass clippings on the dark blue jersey... made him a little uncontrollable.
Especially the area with the No. 10 LOGO on the back.
Bang bang bang.
Finally, Lao Kong couldn't help but stretched out his hand and gently patted the grass clippings off Li Kang's body.
not far away.
Diego Costa is exchanging trash talk with Fedora.
...
"Game resumes!"
"Manchester City attack from the back!"
"Long ball from Stones!"
"This goal is a bit taken for granted...Chelsea's midfield barrier..."
A surprising scene happened.
Kanter's prediction of the landing point was very accurate.
He jumped high into the air.
The football flew past his head.
Although fans changed his height to 1.74 meters, his actual height is 1.67 meters!
"defect!"
"The biggest flaw of Chelsea's midfield triangle combination of Li Kang, Fabregas Kante."
"In 2017, modern football's height requirements for midfielders and backfield players... must be 1.7 meters!"
"Jesus!"
...
Kanter was not discouraged and immediately turned around to chase after him!
Jesus did not dare to be careless after taking off the football and quickly distributed it to the wing!
It's Sane again!
Guardiola has been paranoid to a certain extent about Manchester City's offensive tactics in the frontcourt during this period.
Don't mess around.
All details must be according to his requirements!
Sane slowed down, made a slight adjustment, and did not dare to cross the ball at will.
Wait until David Silva comes forward!
Take the ground!
In an instant, Blue Moon's dense frontcourt attack points set off a suffocating pass-and-run coordination in Chelsea's half!
half space.
Width utilization.
Rank rotation.
Vertical zipper.
Side costal conduction.
This goes on and on, the individual skills are superb, and the overall operation is smooth.
Whether it’s Lee Kee’s high-position rush or Schema’s strangulation, it’s hard to stop Blue Moon’s football easily!
The football came to the right rib, at the feet of De Bruyne.
Kyle Walker rimmed.
After De Bruyne sent the diagonal ball, he quickly took two steps back.
Rudiger turned towards the Manchester City full-back.
Kyle Walker touches the ball!
The football goes to De Bruyne again.
"It's too redundant. Chelsea took advantage of this opportunity to complete their defensive positioning!"
"Wow! Rainbow!"
Snapped!
De Bruyne shook his big butt and swung his right leg slightly.
The football lifted off the ground.
Spin violently.
Fall towards the area on the left side of the goalpost.
A wonderful arc was drawn above the Chelsea penalty area!
Perfect trajectory.
Like a gorgeous rainbow!
Chelsea goalkeeper Caballero was a little panicked.
Any goalkeeper in the world would panic if he stood here.
-[Ding Ding is a loser!]
...
Sane appeared at the landing point like a lion with an afro!
Header!
Snapped!
The bullet comes out!
The Chelsea goal seemed to have been blocked by De Bruyne's temple with a gun, and then Sane pulled the trigger!
There was nothing Caballero could do.
A chill swept through my body.
despair...
In despair, a figure stood in front of him!
Azpilicueta!
Snapped!
Bang!
The football was pushed out of the bottom line... AZP's head also hit the goalpost hard!
"Help at the door!"
"Azpilicueta stood up and used his actions to prove to the world that no matter what tactical system Chelsea uses, the iron blood and tenacity in their bones will never fade away..."
"Iron-blooded temperament! It doesn't matter, even if we can't continue fighting! Chelsea still have several outstanding defenders on the bench..."
"Huh? No bleeding!"
"I got up as if nothing had happened!"
"What is his head made of?"
"..."
"Anyway, Chelsea has reached its most critical moment, with a crumbling defense!"
Away fans are worried.
Uncomfortable.
How did Manchester City become so strong this season?
The stability of high-speed passing and running is so high that there are almost no mistakes.
Which team in Europe can resist their advance in a "high frontal position"?
Azpilicueta rubbed his forehead and got up again. He was still worried: he was not worried about his injury, but worried that if Sane had just put the ball in the middle... he would have been out of position to defend in vain!
Fortunately, Sane is an independent guy and doesn't like to pass the ball, just like Pedro.
...
Sideline.
Tuchel applauded loudly.
He was satisfied with the players' performance.
Dino frowned: "Boss, if we don't defend low, it will be very dangerous."
Chelsea's new coach replied seriously: "No, facing this Manchester City, if we choose to defend in the low post, then... we will be like a frog being boiled in warm water!"
"Boss, the theory of boiling frogs in warm water is wrong!"
"..."
The other side.
Guardiola continues to dance with joy.
No one knows his psychological activities.
...
Time passed by minute by minute.
Experienced the initial confrontation.
Gradually, both sides deliberately slowed down the pace of the game.
David Silva and De Bruyne did not use frontal impact, but played tricks on the ribs.
Sane and Kyle Walker on the two wings are not "sided" in the traditional sense.
Instead, he rotated to the middle multiple times.
Jesus' position is getting deeper and deeper.
Li Kang is full of energy. He wanted to help defend the back line many times, but found that he didn't need to... If he suddenly delays to help defend during sports defense, it will only squeeze the defensive space of his teammates and disrupt the unified defensive thinking.
Movement defense.
It's not positional warfare defense.
Chelsea's last line of defense is very solid. Spilicueta and Cahill have developed a very good understanding over the years.
Although David Luiz is entering the palace for the second time, Rudiger is a new aid.
But their plug and play implementation is very strong.
Who is not T0... bah bah bah, T1 central defender!
The shouts died down.
Blues fans are in despair.
The Blues players are not desperate, but doubtful:
Because before the start of the game, Tuchel made changes and arrangements for different periods of the game.
Is it reliable?
...
The 35th minute of the game.
Kanter finally beats De Bruyne!
“Another wonderful moment that can be included in the highlight reel!”
"Strong penis is down!"
"no problem!"
"The little giant's chasing and shoveling is very clean!"
Tuchel's expression was calm and he made seals quickly!
He has been waiting for a long time!
Finally got the chance to adjust!
Why impact this time period?
Because of this and that... A good coach must grasp the strengths and weaknesses of different periods of the game!
Fabregas received a pass from Kante.
Diego Costa starts.
‘Faculty Connection’?
no.
Li Kang moved forward from the left half, and Pedro retreated closer to the center.
The Magic Triangle of La Masia Youth Training!
In an instant, Chelsea silenced the Etihad Stadium!
...
Stones and Kompany had to be taken away by Diego Costa!
In the left half, Feiniao, David Silva, and Kyle Walker couldn't stop their opponent from pushing flat on the ground.
Li Kang and two alumni of the Film and Television Academy passed the ball one after another.
Spacing is shortened!
Reasonable running maintains a reasonable triangle.
Manchester City's midfield barrier was torn apart in an instant.
Feiniao did not give up, he was ready to use fouls to destroy Chelsea's attack!
He reached out and grabbed Li Kang.
no offence.
But he was dragged down by that terrifying force.
His knee accidentally hit Li Kang's crotch.
Bang?
How could it be snap?
Does it feel like a hard iron plate?
Is this kid wearing iron underwear?
...
Guardiola is also making seals.
It reminded the disciples to pay attention to intercepting Li Kang's passing connections while shrinking the defensive line.
‘Tuchel’s offensive system will definitely not give Lee any freedom.’
'After Li enters the thirty-meter area, the optimal solution can only be to score the ball!'
...
Li Kang got rid of the strong Feiniao.
The shadows on the brain spread to the extreme.
Keep pushing forward.
An explosive head followed closely: the extremely fast Sane.
Stones no longer helped defend Kompany, adjusted his direction, and tried to intercept Li Kang from the front.
Today is different from the past!
Today's Manchester City defense is confident of intercepting the Iberian hero, the sword bearer of the Matador dynasty, the king of North Rhine, the French nightmare, the commander of the arsenal, the talker of Stamford Bridge...
bring it on!
...
A surprising scene happened.
The moment the three of them approached.
The Eye of Truth bursts forth.
Li Kang slowed down, pushed the ball diagonally forward with his left foot, and then pulled it!
"Fake fax!"
"The V-word is great!"
"Deceived the most comfortable breakthrough path!"
"Rush over!"
"Stones and Sane are tenacious...horrendous turning speed!"
"But they have lost their positional advantage and it is difficult to control their body center of gravity during the pursuit..."
"The man fell on his back!"
Guardiola held his head in his hands and looked confused.
At this moment, it is Manchester City's defense that is crumbling!
...
Hazard, Pedro and Fabregas are not lazy!
The three of them opened up the attacking width.
Diego Costa stopped and waited for the change of attack path...preparing for a physical battle between men with Kompany.
Goalkeeper Ederson stepped up!
this moment.
He seemed to be possessed by the "attacking" goalkeeper of the 20th century!
Manchester City's three-dimensional defense line of "goalkeeper and defender" has taken shape in 2017!
It’s of no use!
Snapped!
The crisp sound of ball contact!
The football left the instep of Li Kang's left foot.
After his teammates stretched Manchester City's defense to a certain extent, his own shot would make all the tactical games of "this, this, and that" disappear.
Football is rising rapidly.
Then it fell rapidly.
A beautiful arc is outlined above the Manchester City penalty area!
The strength is just right.
There is no slight deviation in the line.
The ball speed is neither fast nor slow.
Ederson quickly turned around and ran back... At this moment, he finally experienced what Neuer felt.
Manchester City fans are in a state of confusion: Why does our goalkeeper stand so far forward?
The football crashed into the goal line.
Edson reached out and fished it out.
The referee's watch vibrated and then indicated that the goal was valid.
0:1!!!
"pretty!"
"The ball is in!"
"Elegant arc!"
"Gentle cumshot!"
"break the ice!"
"Li Kang scored his first Premier League goal in Chelsea career!"
“A moment worth remembering!”
"He's captured the Etihad Stadium again!"
"There is a crack in the upcoming Blue Moon Dynasty!"
"Ederson's positioning is very irrational. He should know Li Kang's passing... lob skills that were honed by Neuer!"
...
Studio.
Barrage flying.
-【So handsome.】
-[There is no need for Li Mingdeng to be behind, and he can easily connect with his teammates' passing and advancement!]
-[Pedro retreated and moved to the center, followed by a ground pass from the Chelsea midfielder, catching Manchester City off guard.]
- [Chelsea now has the ultimate Xavi, otherwise why would they send you Pedro to play? Wouldn’t it be good to use the traditional method and let William play? 】
-[It is not passed on all the time. Let Li Mingdeng handle the weak areas by himself.]
-【Spanish training match?】
...
Li Kang basked in the spotlight.
Brain shadow shrinks.
The red line from God's perspective...has not been touched in this game: Tuchel has already given the optimal solution to the overall game break.
Chelsea fans who accompanied the army chanted slogans.
“Keep the Blue Flag Flying High!!!”
The teammates on the bench couldn't help but leave their seats and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate!
Diego Costa rushed to the scene of the incident immediately and held up Li Kang's hand.
Hazard glanced at the game time on the big screen in mid-air and couldn't help but sigh: With Li as his teammate, it would be so easy to win.
Fabregas and Pedro bumped fists: thoughts seemed to drift back to South Africa in 2010.
...
Sideline.
Tuchel had a smile on his face.
Dino looked excited and said:
"Manchester City will indeed construct a '3-3' and '2-3' defensive team in the midfield in this game."
"Part of their defensive strength is used to limit Hazard without the ball."
"The main idea is to destroy our transmission links at medium and long distances."
"Lee, Pedro, and Cesc Fabregas' short ground passes disrupted..."
Tuchel shook his head: "It's actually not that complicated."
He turned around and walked to the coaching bench, pulling out a tactical board: "Next, we have to make changes to respond to Guardiola's changes."
