Overtaking on the side road, passing four people in a row and scoring in one go!
Still in the extremely influential Champions League elimination arena!
The atmosphere in the whole court instantly reached a climax. Chen Mo was seen blowing a kiss to the camera at the corner, but was soon thrown to the ground by his teammates. All the reporters and photographers on the sidelines immediately raised their cameras and there was a chaos. shoot.
Even people who have not worked in the journalism industry understand how much of a sensation Chen Mo's series of performances just now will cause after the game. This will not only be a carnival for Arsenal, but also a carnival for football media around the world!
[After passing four people on the wing, a new Maradona is born! 】
【Blood Awakening! The killer nature of the Stabile family is exposed! 】
【High-end product! The absolute cornerstone of the dynasty! 】
[After one hundred and nineteen years of waiting, this year may be Arsenal’s best chance to reach the top of Europe! 】
【The one-year period has arrived! The boy who was kicked out by Barcelona is now]
The flashbulbs flashed crazily, and reporters kept imagining eye-catching headlines in their minds, but the premise of all this was that Arsenal had to win this game, otherwise it would be difficult to brag about it! ! !
Today, they are with Arsenal! .
"Awesome! Boss! We are ahead!!!"
"Haha, a dream start!"
The reporters were very excited about a big topic. On the bench, the assistant coach was equally excited. He screamed "Ouch!" and rushed to Wenger's side. The fat old man blushed and had a thick neck. He hugged Wenger and was in chaos. Wenger was so excited that he couldn't feel any of this at all. He just punched hard and high-fived and hugged his assistants excitedly.
Next to him, unlike the fiery atmosphere on the Arsenal bench, Inter Milan coach Mancini stood on the sidelines like an ice sculpture, staring at Chen Mo at the corner, and then moved his eyes to Wenger who was celebrating on the right, and finally had no choice but to Cover your forehead.
Old fox!
The Champions League is a battleground for all strong teams. Before the game, he had been studying Arsenal. In previous games, Chen Mo had moved to the right wing to blast from a single point, so he would let Sane in this game. Ti moved to the right, the purpose is to defend on the right as much as possible!
At the front is Adriano, behind is Veron, behind Veron is Cambiasso on the right, and behind Cambiasso on the left is Zanetti. In his pre-game arrangement, Adriano is responsible for pressing. Chen Mo.
Once Chen Mo gets rid of Adriano and drives the ball forward, Zanetti will go up and attack Veron one after another. Veron, Cambiaso, and Zanetti will form a triangle and completely lock Chen Mo to the side. road!
Cambiasso may be restrained by Bergkamp. He has been mentally prepared for this, but he never thought that full-back Maicon would mention the winger position to hold down Zanetti!
And when Chen Mo was dribbling the ball forward, Henry and Essien on the left were also moving forward quickly, completely pushing the entire force to the left!
This is definitely not a temporary idea, this is definitely a tactical drill that has been done before the game, but! Even after a tactical drill, whether and when to use it is still a big question!
"A born commander."
Taking one last look at Chen Mo, Mancini returned to the bench with eyes filled with longing.
The coach's coaching style can be roughly divided into two types. One is to treat each player as a component in the machine. During the game, all players must strictly follow the extremely detailed tactical plan and the head coach's detailed arrangements. execute tactics;
The other is to start from the players. To put it simply, there are no fixed tactics. After setting the big framework, this kind of coach will not rigidly add various rules and regulations to it, but will instill football concepts into the players so that the players can flow smoothly. With this set of concepts, we can freely develop them within a broad framework and make specific arrangements for specific situations.
Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. The former style has a more stable record, but because it limits the players' personal performance, the ceiling is often not high enough.
The latter coaching style has a high ceiling, but because the tactics are not stipulated, it relies more on the players' personal abilities. This ability is not only about football skills, but also refers to game reading ability and on-the-spot decision-making ability!
And Chen Mo is top-notch in both of these two items!
The most important thing is, damn it, he is also a commanding player, he likes to communicate with his teammates on the court, and he also knows how to share his vision and judgment with his teammates.
The starting point of this goal came from him calling Maicon to change the formation!
Players like Chen Mo are simply the ultimate treasure for coaches like Wenger and Mancini who belong to the second coaching style!
"I really want to dig him over!"
The more he thought about it, the more jealous he became. Mancini stared with big eyes and clenched his water bottle. This scene was also captured by the camera.
"Oh, it seems that Mr. Mancini is very dissatisfied with the team's performance of conceding a goal just at the beginning. He almost burst the water bottle."
"Haha, that's normal. After all, this is a crucial Champions League game at home. If they lose this game, it will be even more uncomfortable for them to go to Highbury in the second round!"
"Yes, but I feel that the current situation is not just as simple as conceding the ball, but more importantly, Inter Milan's starting style was completely destroyed by Chen Mo."
"Indeed, it is obvious from the opening position that Inter Milan is preparing to focus on defending the left side of Arsenal where Henry, Ashley Cole and Essien are, but everyone knows that 11 people cannot completely cover the wide pitch. The key point is Defending Henry’s side will definitely open up space on the other side.”
"Yes, the so-called intensive defense is to shorten the distance between defensive players, just like shrinking a spread fishing net inward. In this way, although the mesh becomes smaller and smaller fish can be caught, but The price is that the coverage area will also be reduced.
The choice now faced by Mr. Mancini is to continue to focus on guarding Henry, focus on guarding Chen Mo, or adopt more balanced normal defensive tactics.
To guard against Henry, what should Chen Mo do if he causes damage again? To guard against Chen Mo, what should Henry do? If you open your stance wider and use a more balanced stance that is looser and covers a larger area, will both sides be unable to defend? I believe Mr. Mancini’s head is about to explode right now. "
"This is a question that every manager faces, OK, the Arsenal players are celebrating and let's get back into the game."
The commentary was chattering, and soon, under the protest of the Inter Milan players, the referee stopped Arsenal's overly long celebration. Chen Mo pushed his wet black hair back and jogged back to the field.
Passing by Veron, Chen Mo felt the almost cannibalistic gaze of the other person. He didn't say anything and continued to return to the field without even looking at Veron.
Soon, as the referee blew his whistle, Adriano pushed the ball back to Veron's feet in the center circle. The latter caught the ball and prepared to observe the situation, but the next second Chen Mo was already in front of him.
"What a strength!"
Feeling the squeezing force from his left shoulder, Veron, who was unable to turn around even though he knew Chen Mo was strong, was still a little surprised and had to pass the ball back to Cambiasso.
However, even though he passed the ball, Chen Mo still didn't take a step away, but stuck closer to him!
Close defense!
Under the watchful eyes of the audience and the commentator, Chen Mo went directly to the court to play with Veron. The scene was a bit funny, but the effect was outstanding. Through constant physical confrontation, he spared no effort to fight.
Gradually, Veron, as the core of the team, began to be unable to catch the ball!
The whole place was in an uproar!
On the sidelines, watching Veron being pushed into a state of embarrassment by Chen Mo, Wenger, who was walking back and forth with his hands in his pockets, lowered his head, looked at the toes of his leather shoes, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Veron is 1.86 meters tall, but his speed is slow and his impact is not strong. This means that he cannot play in midfielders like Lampard, Gerrard, and Kaká who rely on speed and power to push forward. At the same time, because of his height, , The frequency of his feet is not fast, and he can't kick Iniesta, Xavi's quick and agile style.
Veron is characterized by his strong passing ability and broad vision.
In order to make up for the shortcomings in previous games, Inter Milan usually used the method of playing behind the attacking midfielder to allow Veron to retreat to a deeper position. In the backcourt, he faced the opponent's attacking midfielder.
The defensive ability of attacking midfielders is generally not strong, but Chen Mo is different!
After coming to Arsenal, with Essien and Vieira behind him, under his training, Chen Mo began to practice more one-on-one pressing on the defensive end, with the purpose of blocking the opponent's first pass during the transition between offense and defense. Once the ball hits the spot!
The advantage of positioning the front midfielder behind is that the field of vision is wider and the defensive pressure faced by the ball is less, but the disadvantage is that once the ball is lost, the opponent can face the back line!
Facing Chen Mo, who has good defensive ability, Veron did not dare to retreat too deep to get the ball. If he got the ball near the center circle, he would be guarded by Chen Mo and Essien!
No solution!
There is no solution to the shortcomings in strength and style!
Soon, under the watchful eye of Wenger, Veron, who was still trying to take a pass near the center circle, made a passing error under Chen Mo's squeeze, and the ball returned to Arsenal's feet again.
"Place firmly, don't rush in blindly!"
Seeing this scene, Mancini immediately rushed to the sidelines and waved his arms and shouted.
The sound was so loud that Chen Mo on the court heard it, but the other party was yelling in Italian, which he couldn't understand, but judging from the gestures and the positioning of the Inter Milan players, he had already judged it was almost the same.
"Want to stabilize the defense? It's too late."
Inter Milan's position has not changed, and they are still focusing on defending Henry, but the players are obviously compressed back a lot. There are four players in the back and four players in the midfield. means.
"Essien, go switch places with Pennant!"
Seeing this scene, Chen Mo, who had just received the ball, did not hesitate. He licked the ball sideways and raised his left index finger to point to the sky. At this time, the ball was at his feet, and all the players were paying attention to his every move.
As the tactical gesture came out, Essien, who had been in the front position of the left midfielder, retreated and switched positions with Pennant in the right midfielder to mark Adriano, who had a stronger impact.
"Essien actually retreated? What does Chen Mo's gesture mean?"
"Does it feel like you are ready to play possession? You see, Maicon and Ashley Cole, who had been pressing high before, have dropped back to their waists and started to receive passes. Oh, sure enough, you see they are now No more forward passes.”
"It's really, hey, really keen observation. I have to say that with a player like Chen Mo in the team, the coach's job will be much easier. But for the other coach, it may be a bit painful, haha. "
It was indeed painful. On the sidelines, Mancini was so anxious that he picked his head!
Because he was worried that Arsenal would catch the opportunity to attack after attacking, he asked the whole team to set up the iron barrel formation and play defensive counterattack. As a result, Arsenal also changed the formation under Chen Mo's command just after the iron barrel formation was set up!
Start controlling the ball!
This is not over yet. Just control the ball. It is impossible to control the whole game anyway. As long as you seize the opportunity, you can equalize the score. What really gives Mancini a headache is that Essien and Pennant have switched positions!
Defensive counterattacks require at least two wings to fly together. Inter Milan's left midfielder is Veron. Veron has no speed, so the impact on the left during counterattacks is completely provided by Adriano. But now the style of play is tough and physical. The extremely strong defensive iron gate Essien went to Adriano's side!
Although this will reduce Arsenal's offensive power on the left side, the heavier losses are obviously to their Inter Milan, who are now lagging behind!
"Duizi???"
"So decisive?! Is there ice residue flowing in his bones!!!"
Looking at Chen Mo, who was threading the needle on the court and organizing his teammates to move back and forth in an orderly manner, the whites of Mancini's eyes almost burst into blood under great pressure!
Offense or defense?
It seems like a simple question, but just like most people spend their whole lives struggling with whether they should take the initiative to confess their love to the girl they love, this is a very difficult decision.
Chen Mo didn't know about Mancini's struggles. Seeing that Inter Milan didn't come forward to grab the ball, he was not in a hurry and kept moving his feet to cooperate with his teammates in passing the ball back and forth. The rhythm of the entire game gradually slowed down.
"Oh, Tikki, I'm sleepy."
"Me too, haha. However, although the pace of the game is a bit slow, I still admire this little guy Chen Mo. He is seventeen years old and it is his first time to play in a top-level competition like the Champions League knockout round. His mentality can be stable."
"Indeed, as a good hunter you must have enough patience, but we fans are a little uncomfortable."
The commentator rambled on, and the game reached the 43rd minute of the first half. Although Inter Milan regained the ball several times, due to Arsenal's targeted arrangement, they were unable to counterattack immediately after getting the ball back. Arsenal quickly counterattacked, and Arsenal's ball possession rate reached a terrifying 77%!
However, because Vieira and Giroud, the only two headers in Arsenal's team, are not on the court, and Chen Mo and Henry are not the kind of players who can dodge and move around under the attack of multiple people to complete the breakthrough. , Facing Inter Milan's intensive defense, they never seized the opportunity to expand the score.
The fans on the sidelines looked a little dull, and just when everyone thought Arsenal would keep possession of the ball until the end of the first half, Chen Mo, who had just received a pass from Pennant in the midfield, suddenly felt a glare Calling from the front left.
"Henry?!"
Standing directly in front of him was Cambiaso, looking over his right shoulder and looking back. He saw that Henry, who had been ambushing the back line before, had retreated at some point. He looked at Chen Mo with his eyes wide open, and his left hand was backwards. Pushed Materazzi.
"Want the ball?"
"But he's followed by Materazzi!"
The thought flashed across his mind, but without hesitation, Chen Mo lifted his right foot back, flicked it downwards, and rubbed the ball with his instep. The next second, "Bang——" the backspinned ball passed over Cambiasso's head and went straight to the ball. Lift directly to the penalty area behind Henry! ! !
And the moment he flicked his foot, Henry, who was retreating, suddenly turned back and ran straight away from Materazzi and returned to the penalty area!
"Lob! Oh my god, why did Materazzi hit it so high!"
"Henry is going into the restricted area!!"
The commentator suddenly became energetic and shouted loudly. The audience in the stands also woke up from their drowsiness and stared at the spinning ball with wide eyes!
The next second, the ball was hoisted to the left area of the penalty area. Henry, whose speed completely overwhelmed Materazzi, reached the penalty area, but
"Damn it!"
"Don't even think about it!"
Henry, whose speed completely overwhelmed Materazzi, reached the penalty area, but the ball speed of this kind of lob could not be increased. When he ran to the landing point, the ball was still falling, and the Inter Milan goalkeeper had already abandoned the goal and struck out with two powerful steps. He jumped, but because Henry was 1.88 meters away in the middle, he could only knock the ball away with one punch!
The ball didn't fly too far. In Chen Mo's sight, the ball flew straight from the left side of the penalty area to the left sideline, where Inter Milan right midfielder Stankovic was standing!
"Chance!"
"Trouble!"
Seeing this scene, the Inter Milan players immediately sprinted forward to prepare for a counterattack, and Chen Mo immediately prepared to retreat to find Veron, but at this moment, a black streak of light shot out of the corner of his left eye!
"Stankovic wants to hit the ball back. Oh my god! It's so fast! Ashley Cole goes up so fast! Oh!! He steals the ball!!!"
"He's going to the bottom!!!"
"HOOOOOOOOO!!!"
The commentator roared, and under the gaze of the entire audience, Ashley Cole ran at high speed, jumped before Stankovic and intercepted the ball with his chest in the air. After landing, he quickly adjusted his center of gravity and dribbled the ball down quickly!
Attack and defense are instantly cast!
The Inter Milan player who had just advanced forward immediately retreated. Chen Mo, who was retreating, immediately advanced forward. Just as he ran to the top of the penalty area, Ashley Cole had already sent a cross from the left side of the Inter Milan penalty area. , a high arcing ball, looking for Henry to grab the spot in front of the goal!
"This ball has nothing to do with me."
After seeing the path of the ball clearly, Chen Mo, who had just rushed into the penalty area, immediately relaxed his feet and used all his energy to prevent Inter Milan from counterattacking! But in the next second, a shocking change occurred. Ashley Cole's powerful pass hit the back of Materazzi's head. It was instantly refracted with the back of his head as the fulcrum, and flew towards the center of the penalty area at high speed!
In Henry's dull gaze when he turned back, the ball hit Chen Mo's face hard after refraction and floated back, where a blond man with some bald temples was standing there!
"Don't even think about it!"
Cambiasso, who was nearest, sprinted directly to tackle, and the interception route was exactly the route of the ball. But in the next second, looking at the ball falling to his waist, Bergkamp opened his arms without any hesitation. , supported by his right leg, pushed back with his left foot, and then, his thick thigh was thrown towards the ball like a whip!
"boom--"
Under the shocked gaze of more than 80,000 fans in the audience, Bergkamp on the penalty area line met the ball with a volley!
Peach Blossom Shadow Falling Flying Divine Sword!
The ball passed by Chen Mo's right ear. Chen Mo just turned his head to follow, and the ball had already passed the goalkeeper's leaping fingers and hit the upper right corner of the goal!
"World wave!!! A perfect volley world wave! In the 45th minute of the game, Arsenal scored another goal! The goal was scored by the owner of Arsenal's No. 10 jersey - Dennis Bergkamp!! !”
"Oh! Look at how perfect the power and swing of this goal are! It's a work of art carved by time! New fans would never guess that the man who scored such a beautiful goal is already thirty-five years old. ! Veterans never die! They just wither away!!!”
"A great veteran, but we can't ignore the new recruit who provides ammunition to this veteran! But can this goal really be regarded as Chen Mo's assist? I doubt it, hahaha."
"This should be the first time in the history of the Champions League knockout rounds that a player has given an assist with his face, hahaha!"
Why do you feel that after going to bed early and getting up early, your energy is not as good as before when the day and night were reversed?
