In the locker room after the game, Lampard took the initiative to assume the responsibility of the team's loss of the ball! In fact, whether he admits it or not, everyone feels like Der Spiegel. Fortunately, the team won the game with Lampard's own lore salvation!
In the professional arena, victory is the best result, and there is no need to pursue more processes when winning!
Hiddink only emphasized after the game that in the final stage of the game, everyone must also grit their teeth to ensure concentration!
In fact, everyone is a professional player who has played for many seasons. In the long season, it is impossible to have a team or players who can always maintain mental concentration and excellent game conditions, so many players also understand Lan Pader's mistake!
For Yang Feng, this game was scored with a header on the top of his head. It also made him understand that the environment he is now in is no longer Zenit, but Chelsea, in the Premier League!
In the Zenit era, Yang Feng, who has always been regarded as a gem by Edvard Carter, has quickly integrated into the team. In addition, all his teammates are kind of rectal, and there are not so many superstar players. Everyone has a lot of dealings and exchanges. So on the court, Yang Feng can command his teammates unscrupulously, as long as he is right!
But not in the Premier League. Except for Yang Feng seeing Terry on the court and occasionally directing, everyone else is just doing their own job. It's okay to discuss occasionally during breaks. At critical moments, someone needs to yell or criticize teammates. Few people speak up when they make mistakes!
Maybe this is the giants! Because of the various problems between the players, definitely not purely playing!
In the Premier League, because of its fast-paced and simplification of offense, it is destined to happen from time to time. Yang Feng resists tenaciously through this opponent, and he understands that he wants to be in the Premier League. Based on your footing, in addition to strengthening the strength of your physical confrontation, you must also watch all directions at the same time, and be ready to wipe your teammates at any time!
In such a situation where the opponent scores a player, Yang Feng does not want to try a second time!
Due to this round of competition, Liverpool, who was distracted by the European war, was defeated 2-0 by the relegation team Middlesbrough. Chelsea was able to rely on the goal difference advantage to counterattack to the second place in the league!
It's just that Chelsea is still 7 points away from Manchester United, which is the top of the list. This is because Manchester United has one less match in the English League Cup final!
Ferguson's team, after the return of many wounded, all fronts have maintained a perfect performance!
In the 28th round of the league, Chelsea challenged the relegation team Portsmouth away!
Portsmouth, who is only 2 points ahead of the relegation zone, knows that it is not easy to score 3 points on Chelsea, but using their home court advantage, they still want to struggle to see if they can hold a draw!
When as many as 8 teams have less than 30 points, Portsmouth, with 28 points, regards each point as the key to relegation!
Although Hiddink wants to continue the offensive lineup of three forwards for this weak team, but Anelka suffered a small injury in training. Fortunately, Malouda's return of the line of fire can provide a burst point on the wing!
Hiddink directly changed 442, Drogba and Kalu played double forwards, and Malouda came back to replace Anelka as the winger. The other positions have not changed from the previous 433 starters!
For such a weak opponent, Hiddink sticks to his Dutch philosophy and attacks with all his strength.
Only Malouda’s appearance has enhanced Chelsea’s ability to break through the wing. Correspondingly, due to the height problem in the penalty area, Kalu cannot form a double ghost with Drogba, making Drogba often the same. People are under siege!
In Portsmouth, the defensive formation of the 451, the people near the penalty area, also paid great attention to the protection of the second point, making Kalu inside the penalty area and Chelsea's Ballack and Lampard outside the penalty area did not hit the goal. Or a long shot opportunity!
Chelsea occupies 70% of the ball and has as many as 20 shots, but under the defense of the home team, only 4 shots are within the frame!
Fortunately, among these 4 shots, Drogba scored a header in the 79th minute of the game!
At that time, due to a 0-0 score, Chelsea's two full-backs were heavily involved in the attack, acting as passers from the wing.
Ashley Cole stepped in on the left side and went straight to the center. Drogba was in the penalty area. This time he finally found a chance to resist the two defenders. Under the double-team of the two, he still took off and started fighting. Grab the spot and finish the header!
In such a close-range header attack, there is still a certain shooting angle, it is normal for the goalkeeper to not respond, and Chelsea scored the only goal in the game!
In the game, Portsmouth, who is focused on defense, can only rely on a long pass to counterattack, hoping that the single forward Gray can steal one in the counterattack!
However, a counterattack without sufficient support would seem useless in front of Yang Feng!
In this game, Yang Feng directly undermined most of Portsmouth's long-pass counterattack, and some counterattacks and teammates united to defend the line. The audience came down. In addition to the opening and closing periods, Portsmouth had several times. In addition to good offensive opportunities, the home team has almost no offensive opportunities in the middle of the game!
Yang Feng once again proved his value for this Chelsea team in the game. With him, the two full-backs can participate in the attack with more confidence and increase Chelsea's wing opportunities!
After getting Hiddink's four-game winning streak 1-0 since taking office, Chelsea moved to West Midlands to challenge Coventry, the British championship team!
Chelsea has put the focus of the championship on the only remaining FA Cup and the very eagerly eager Champions League title in the league this season.
In the quarter-finals, the draw was drawn to the English Championship team, which is also considered to be a good start for Chelsea to win the FA Cup!
In the league, Manchester United continues to maintain a winning streak and makes no mistakes. Chelsea is still 7 points away from it in a multi-match round. Chelsea is almost hopeless. In the FA Cup match, even if the opponent is the British crown team , Is still the main force!
Even if they are going to Turin to challenge Juventus in an away game four days later, Hiddink believes that his team will be able to maintain a good state of the game in a double match a week!
After all, as a wealthy team, in the second half of the season, a weekly double match is actually the norm in every season! Hiddink believes that his players can cope with this situation! I will also allocate my physical strength!
Unlike the Premier League teams, they will more or less add some changes in the process of recklessness. At this time, the majority of the Premier League teams are reckless.
It’s just that the level of the midfielder in the Coventry Championship, the strong defense of Chelsea’s midfield, and the excellent defensive high-altitude ability of Terry and Yang Feng, this game, even at home, did not win too much. Good attack opportunity!
Chelsea played steadily. In addition to defending well, the offensive end seized the home team's major defensive loopholes. Drogba and Kalu scored a goal each in the first and second halves. They defeated Coventry 2-0 and advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals!
After that, there was not much time to rest. Less than a day after returning to London to fix up, Chelsea took a flight to Italy to prepare for the second round against Juventus!
As an Italian team, in the European arena, it has always had a strong home field ability! Chelsea dare not take it lightly!
At the Torino Olympic Stadium {before the new Juventus stadium was built, it had been shared with the Turin team}, Juventus ignited the fans at the opening!
Only 18 minutes into the game, Piero succeeded with a long shot in front of the penalty zone and tied the total score 1-1!
However, although Juventus is in the stage of revival, it is still too far away from the future Juventus who dominates Serie A!
The aging problem of its players is extremely serious!
Even though Nedved is an iron man, the 37-year-old Nedved is obviously no longer at his peak!
Maybe Nedved can still rely on experience to deal with Serie A matches, but facing Chelsea, it is obviously a little weaker!
Chelsea immediately accelerated the pace of the game after losing the first goal. Although the total score was equalized, since Juventus did not score an away goal, Chelsea only need to score one goal, and the opponent will have to score 2 more goals to advance!
In the face of Juventus’s aging lineup, Chelsea’s generals do not have the mind to respect the old and the young at this moment. Holding Nedved’s defensive position, they are constantly breaking through and impacting!
Towards the end of the first half, Nedved’s defensive zone in the middle was breached. Joe Cole used his speed to forcibly pass Nedved. After creating a momentary defensive chaos in Juventus’s back line, he moved the ball. It was passed directly to Kalu who was waiting on the right side of the penalty area!
Kalu, who has always been hidden under the light of Drogba, seized the opportunity this time and took a shot directly in the penalty area after receiving the ball. Buffon flew sideways. Because the ball was too fast, he did not make it. Kalu regained a 2-1 lead for Chelsea and held an away goal!
In the second half of the game, Juventus was obviously more anxious to attack, while Hiddink replaced Deco and Essien, who had just returned from injury, to strengthen the team's defense!
Essien, Mikel, Deco, Ballack, Lampard, the configuration of the five midfielders clearly arranged Juventus's offense, leaving only Drogba in the frontcourt as a counterattack threat!
Juve’s offensive players plunged into the bronze wall of Chelsea’s five-man midfielder. Even though they were lucky enough to rely on long passes to survive the five-man encirclement, there is also a Yang Feng who is extremely mobile in the rear, who is always mopping up the backcourt. Guard!
Juventus tried to attack many times but returned without success, but because of loosing too many in the midfield, Chelsea made direct counterattacks many times!
In the 68th minute of the game, with Nedved's mistake in midfield, Essien was directly tackled successfully!
Essien passed the ball directly to Lampard in front of him. Lampard looked at Drogba's position, which was a long pass that was just right in advance!
Drogba carried Chiellini, the last of Juventus's defense, and still controlled the football in the physical confrontation!
Stopping the ball without making a mistake, unloaded the ball directly to the foot and wiped it out into the penalty area!
Because Chiellini is in a separate defense, Drogba has already taken advantage of his position, and this ball has formed a semi-single-handed state!
Seeing that the situation was not right, Buffon abandoned the goal directly, hoping to take advantage of Drogba's just unloading of the ball, but he did not have time to adjust to the best condition and attack to get the football!
But Drogba, but one of the world's top strikers, saw Buffon's attack, even if the physical feeling has not been adjusted to the best, it will not delay him to complete the impressing action in awkwardness!
Screw the body directly and hit the door with the back of your instep!
Buffon lowered his center of gravity and blocked most of the angles, but he was unable to make a side flutter in the half-squat state of attack. Facing Drogba's instep, Buffon could only watch. Watching the ball fly by my hand, I can't do anything!
In fact, the angle of the shot is very small, but Drogba's control is extremely strong! In the end the football flew to the far corner and just hit the post into the net!
Chelsea went 2-1 away, leading the total score 3-1!
Even if the stoppage time is included, the game time is less than half an hour. Juventus needs another 3 goal difference to complete the reversal. This is an impossible task!
However, there may not be much hope for promotion, but as the traditional Serie A giants, Juventus players have no intention of losing at home. Even in order to support their fans, they must fight hard!
Unlike Juventus, whose morale is still high, Chelsea's players have already begun to enjoy the joy of winning in advance!
Although the game is not over yet ~EbookFREE.me~, but with the defensive strength of the five midfield lineup, Chelsea don't think Juventus can make a comeback!
Indeed, even if the Chelsea players are obviously not running actively, it is still difficult for Juventus to create an excellent opportunity!
However, in the 87th minute, Amaury received a long pass from his teammate, directly under Terry's defense, flew the header and gave the ball to Marchisio who was inserted outside the penalty area!
Marchisio directly volleyed the ball! Although Yang Feng had already seen Marchisio’s success with almost unimpeded insertion from behind, due to Piero’s previous run, Yang Feng’s movement was restricted. After confirming Amaury’s header, Yang Feng again It's too late to stop Marchisio's shot!
With an excellent shot in the undefended state, Marchisio used a long shot to penetrate Cech's ten-finger pass and tie the game 2 to 2!
In the end, Chelsea drew with Juventus 2 to 2 away, and the total score was 3 to 2 to advance to the Champions League quarter-finals!
Within a week, after the two-lane promotion, Hiddink brought Chelsea back on track and started the competition for the championship of the two cups at the same time! 11
