Ball king grower

Before the game started, most of the fans in the stands were already in place, but one fan caught a lot of attention.

He is Roy Hosenge, the current coach of the England national team.

There are many English players in Chelsea and Manchester United. Rooney and Lampard are even teammates in the national team. However, because Lampard is getting older, whether he can join the national team again has become a big question.

The problem is, Hosenqi came to this game not just to watch a game, but what he wanted to see was probably the performance of the English players on the field.

Whether it is Rooney or Lampard, they are the starters in this game. Their performance will not only determine the team's victory or defeat, but may also affect their status in the national team.

What I have to say is that in the main position, Manchester United has obviously more English players and they are more competitive. Therefore, Hosenqi's arrival in this game has actually added another motivation to Manchester United.

It forced them to play better.

As soon as the game started, it was full of gunpowder, and even the fans in front of the TV could feel the real atmosphere.

Only one minute into the game, Lin Yu was brought down, and it was not the Manchester United defender who brought him down but Robin van Persie. As a result, Van Persie received a yellow card because of this.

The referee's level is still relatively high. He knows that if this kind of foul is left alone, it will become more and more serious and eventually reach the point of being unmanageable, so this phenomenon must be curbed as soon as possible. What's more, at Stamford Bridge, at Chelsea

It is uncomfortable to be a referee at home. There must be no obvious favoritism or protection. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, the referee career may be ended by a word from the Magic Bird.

Mourinho is an outspoken person. He dares to say whatever he thinks. This is very similar to Lin Yu. Unlike some people who still have to consider the impact, they don't care about this and dare to speak out if they suspect anything.

It is precisely because Mourinho once ended a referee's career because of one word in the past, so many referees now hate and fear Mourinho, and feel conflicted in their hearts.

Sure enough, after Robin van Persie received a yellow card, the tension between the two sides decreased a lot, and the game began to get on track.

Even at home, Mourinho still plays a defensive counterattack. He feels there is no need to change. The score between the two teams is now tied at 2:2. No matter who scores a goal, it will change the situation, so make sure the team

Not conceding the ball is the most important thing. This is a bit like the Champions League final. Defense is always more important than offense. Finding opportunities to score goals in defense is the right thing to do.

After all, no matter which team they are, it is impossible to defend without making any mistakes from beginning to end. That is not a team, that is simply a god.

Even if you compare any Barcelona team that has won six crowns, there will still be mistakes.

Mourinho has a very clear idea of ​​the thinking of the Manchester United people. He knows that both Moyes and the Manchester United players are eager to score goals and win, so they will definitely attack in a big way. As long as they hold on firmly

, the opponent will definitely have many flaws, and it is no problem to find one or two opportunities to counterattack. You must know that Chelsea’s frontcourt, including Lin Yu, Schurrle, Oscar and Hazard, are all good counterattackers.

Especially Lin Yu, as long as he seizes the opportunity, he will bite the opponent like a beast until the opponent is killed.

In football, players play with technique and inspiration, while coaches play with tactics and strategy.

A team must have the determination and fighting spirit to win, and must have the enthusiasm of young people, but at critical times, it still has to know how to play strategies. This is the head coach's job.

Although Chelsea's defensive counterattack has been criticized by many people, saying that it does not resemble the style of play of a powerful team at all, but in fact if you calculate the data, you will find that in addition to the ball possession rate may not be as good as the opponent, regardless of the number of shots,

The quality of shooting, as well as the quality of breakthroughs and threatening passes, are probably much better than those of the opponents.

This is why Mourinho can win. His defense is not just for defense. Defense is just a strategy, and counterattack is the purpose.

I believe many people have played arcade games. Whether it is King of Fighters or Street Fighter, a sudden counterattack during the defense is often very effective. Of course, if you just defend blindly, it is meaningless, and you may be directly attacked.

Grind him to death.

Chelsea's counterattack is sharp, simple and effective. After Mourinho returned to Chelsea, he also went through some detours in order to play beautiful football. However, it is obvious that since Lin Yu joined this team, he found that the so-called beautiful football

The philosophies of football and defensive counterattack are not inconsistent, so this move was completely out of his reach.

Every time Lin Yu breaks through with the ball, Manchester United fans and players, including the head coach, are sweating because there is always a feeling that they are about to be scored by the opponent.

Chelsea's commentary on the scene seemed very happy: "Even if it is a defensive counterattack, it does not mean that we will be beaten passively. Chelsea's counterattacks are extremely sharp. They beat Manchester United several times and they were a little unable to recover. If it weren't for their players

I worked very hard today and I'm afraid I may have lost the ball."

Due to the media publicity before the game, Manchester United players also believed that Chelsea would not care too much about the semi-finals of the FA Cup. After all, they are already the semi-finals of the Champions League. They are also far ahead in the league and are very likely to win the league.

Champion, how can such a team work hard in a somewhat tasteless competition like the FA Cup?

It was precisely because they were misled by the media that they had such wrong ideas, which led to them missing good opportunities one after another in the game and being devastated by Chelsea's counterattack.

Twenty minutes into the game, Chelsea had a total of six shots, five of which were very threatening. Although Manchester United had been attacking fiercely, they only had four shots. The truly threatening shots were even one shot.

None, most of them fired anti-aircraft guns.

Manchester United's players wanted to score so much that their motivation turned into pressure. Therefore, including Robin van Persie and Rooney, when they were unable to break through Chelsea's dense defense, they chose to take a hasty long shot.

Mourinho sat calmly in his seat. His expression could not be seen, or in other words, he had no expression at all. He only had a calm face, leaning there and watching the game lazily.

In fact, he was already a little excited.

Others may regard the FA Cup as useless, but he does not think so. Any championship is the hard work of the players. It may not be famous enough, but it is not as useless as the outside world says. The FA Cup is played from the outside.

By the quarter-finals, Chelsea had also defeated many opponents. Every game was not easy, and it was not easy to get to this point while fighting on multiple fronts. Let him give up here, let alone say he can't spare it.

I am afraid that even the players who have worked hard to get to this point cannot accept it.

And judging from the current situation, our team has a great advantage, and scoring a goal will probably happen sooner or later. As long as there are no too outrageous mistakes, this game will be won!

Although Mourinho looks calm on the surface, he is already very excited in his heart. Calmness is just an illusion left to the cameras. As a coach, sometimes you have to pretend.

The time entered the 25th minute of the game. Chelsea's sharp counterattack finally paid off.

Lin Yu directly stole the ball from Van Persie's foot. He has said before that he will never forget hatred. Van Persie fouled him rudely again at the beginning of the game. Of course, he could not retaliate with a foul. That was a filial son.

If you are just playing around, you might get yourself a yellow card.

What he does is humiliate the other party!

This is the third time that he has stolen the ball from Van Persie. And after stealing the ball, he deliberately shrugged, which was obviously a provocation to Van Persie.

After stealing the ball, Lin Yu showed a joking smile to Van Persie. Then when Van Persie came over angrily to counterattack, he suddenly turned around and passed the ball out with a big kick.

Others thought he kicked randomly in a hurry, but they didn't know that he had already observed the position of his teammates. The kick was passed impartially and landed on the path of Schürrle's advance.

It just jumped over Manchester United's entire back line.

Counterattack is that simple, and a pass may solve the problem.

After Xuerle got the ball, he did not hesitate to break through with the ball. In fact, it was no longer a breakthrough because there was no other person in front of him except the goalkeeper.

Although the Manchester United players behind were chasing him, they obviously couldn't catch up with him. When he reached a position that he felt was about the same, he shot a low ball directly through the crotch of Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea, and the ball hit the goal accurately.

middle.

"Goooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!!" The cheers seemed louder than usual, and the commentator seemed to be demonstrating for Manchester United.

"The ball was scored, and there was a clean counterattack. With the simple cooperation of Lin Yu and Schurrle, Manchester United finally paid a heavy price. Their defense was too far forward. Isn't this just waiting to be hit by a counterattack?"

, so pitiful.”

Tens of thousands of Chelsea fans at the scene also stood up and cheered to celebrate, as if the game was over, as if Chelsea had entered the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

For fans, no championship can be given up. The loss of the League Cup has already made them a little regretful, but the FA Cup must not be lost.

Now, they are one goal ahead at home and have surpassed Manchester United in total score. As long as this score is maintained until the end of the game, Chelsea will be the last to advance.

"Wait a minute, something doesn't seem right!" the commentator who had just cheered suddenly changed the subject because he saw the flag raised by the linesman.

"Offside? Is Schürrer offside?"

Lin Yu had already ran over to celebrate with Xuerle immediately, but halfway there he found that the linesman had raised his flag, which puzzled him. In fact, from his position, Xuerle

It is absolutely impossible to be offside. Of course, it is normal for the authorities to be confused and not see clearly. However, the referee was called offside, which shows that Lin Yu's vision is relatively accurate.

However, it was impossible for the referees to conflict with each other. The linesman's position was better, so after some exchanges between the referee and the linesman, Schurrle was finally awarded a foul, and Chelsea's hard-fought goal was disallowed.

Dropped.

Mourinho could no longer sit still at this time. He rushed over and roared at the fourth official: "Damn it, is he blind? Is that offside? You should be able to see clearly if you are standing here!"

"

The fourth official was indeed a little confused. The ball didn't look like it was offside, so he seemed a bit cowardly in response to Mourinho's roar and didn't have much confidence to fight back.

Several Chelsea players went to the referee to argue, but at this moment, Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea quickly took the ball out of the goal, placed it on the penalty spot, and kicked it out.

"Come back! Come back quickly!" Lampard shouted anxiously. At this time, because he was struggling with whether he was offside or not, Chelsea's defense was obviously a little messy. Even the right back Ivan rushed over to argue with the referee.

The defensive gap is so big that you can almost dance.

"Hell, our counterattack turned into an opportunity for Manchester United. De Gea directly found Rooney with a big kick. Rooney and Robin van Persie played a two-on-one and passed Lampard. There was no one in front of him to defend.

Oh my god, what the hell is going on!"

The commentator was so anxious that he was about to cry, but what's the use of being anxious at this time? Being anxious can't change the situation on the field.

When only Cech was left in front of Rooney, the situation was completely reversed from before, and it only lasted less than a minute.
