"Because of Xiao Yu's appearance in the last game, Zilina's head coach Hapal also claimed that he would never believe Ancelotti's lies again. I don't know if Wigan's coach Martinez will Will you choose to believe An Shuai?" Miao Kun also asked a question to the audience.
"I think he believed it. After all, in today's pre-match press conference, Martinez also shouted that today is a great opportunity for Wigan to avenge their past humiliation. They just want to take advantage of the fact that the Blues' lineup is not whole. Pull the horse down and let the Blues taste the feeling of being eliminated." Wang Tao seemed to want to prove that he watched the pre-match press conferences of the two teams and also commented on Martinez's pre-match speech.
"I think Martinez's words are just to cheer up his players. After all, we just said that the strength of Chelsea's young players cannot be underestimated." Miao Kun said objectively.
"Then let's take a look at the starting lineups of the two teams first." Wang Tao immediately answered.
"Well! Let me first introduce the starting lineup of the visiting team Wigan Athletic. Martinez arranged a 4-4-2 formation for this game. Goalkeeper No. 26 Habsi,
The four defenders are No. 31 Figueroa, No. 5 Caldwell, No. 23 Stam, and No. 2 Gouri.
The four midfielders are No. 8 Watson, No. 15 Jordi Gomez, No. 6 Gomez, and No. 16 MacArthur.
The two forwards are No. 7 DiSanto and No. 43 McManaman. "Perhaps based on the principle of giving priority to guests, Miao Kun first introduced the visiting Wigan Athletic.
"Is this very different from the previous match against Chelsea in the league? Only three of the players who started the game were included in this starting list." Wang Tao also analyzed this starting lineup.
"This lineup also shows that Wigan Athletic's focus is not on the League Cup, which does not earn much. They should have made the same choice as Chelsea and used such a game to train their troops." Miao Kun's analysis is also more in-depth.
"Well! Then let me introduce the starting lineup of the home team Chelsea. Anshuai has arranged a different 4-4-2 lineup for this game. Goalkeeper No. 22 Turnbull,
The four defenders are No. 38 Van Aanholt, No. 34 Ryan Bertrand, No. 43 Bruma, and No. 24 Azpilicueta.
Midfielder No. 16 Ramirez,
Wang Chu, No. 14, left midfielder, and Mike Chilan, No. 51, right midfielder.
Front midfielder No. 7 Xiao Yu,
The two forwards are No. 23 Sturridge and No. 45 Borini.
Why! Miao Kun, look, Xiao Yu also appeared in the formation. Did Ancelotti deceive his opponent again this time? "Wang Tao seemed to be afraid that Miao Kun would come to introduce him, so he rushed to say it.
"Xiao Yu's appearance is indeed surprising. According to conventional wisdom, he is now the absolute core of the Blues. He has scored 47 goals for the team on all fronts this season. In such a League Cup , he does not seem to need to play. However, today Xiao Yu appeared in the attacking midfielder position, which shows Anshuai's intentions. He adopted a diamond-shaped midfield layout, which may be trying a new The lineup arrangement. After all, in previous leagues, their traditional formation has shown signs of being restrained by opponents. For the Blues who aim to defend their title, changes are essential." Miao Kun did not seem to go To answer Wang Tao's question, I just analyzed Xiao Yu's appearance.
"Wow! This game is really exciting. Miao Kun, let's do something exciting. I bet Xiao Yu can score 5 goals today. Do you dare to catch it?" Wang Tao also became playful. Now The online video platform has just started, and the supervision is not too strict. He can still speak freely and express his thoughts happily.
"We see that players from both sides have already entered the stadium. The ones wearing blue uniforms today are the Blues Chelsea playing at home. The one at the front is today's captain Xiao Yu. And Wigan, who are visiting Stamford Bridge, Athlete is wearing a black jersey today." Miao Kun seemed not to have heard Wang Tao's bet, and went on to introduce the two teams that had already entered the stadium.
What everyone didn't know was that Ancelotti had no intention of sending Xiao Yu to play in today's game.
However, Xiao Yu took the initiative and expressed to Ancelotti that he hoped to improve his scoring data through the game. In fact, Xiao Yu also had some other selfish motives. He was also worried that Chelsea would really fall into the gutter. Ship, his wish to win all the championships will come to nothing.
Considering that this disciple was in excellent physical condition, Ancelotti readily agreed to his request, and also wanted to take this opportunity to test his new idea for the next game.
At the beginning of the game, out of respect, Xiao Yu chose to switch sides and gave the kick-off right to his opponent.
Unexpectedly, Wigan Athletic had a wave of offensive climax right from the beginning.
MacArthur, Thomas, and McManaman used a series of coordination to send the ball into Chelsea's penalty area, and DiSanto followed up with a blast.
It's a pity that the aim of this kick was not good and it did not hit the door frame.
Immediately after Chelsea took a goal kick, Caldwell headed it directly back into Chelsea's half. Jordi Gomez dribbled the ball past Ramirez and shot a long shot before Chelsea's penalty area.
However, the kick still did not hit the door frame.
Another goal kick, Turnbull did not take a big kick, he handed the ball to Van Aanholt on the left.
Van Aanholt dribbled the ball directly towards the frontcourt and cooperated with Wang Chu in a one-two against the wall to get past MacArthur who was rushing up.
Continuing to dribble the ball deep, he tried to speed up and pass Gouri. However, Gouri needed more experience. He saw the right time and dunked the ball from Van Aanholt, and immediately switched to Wigan Athletic. attack mode.
Gouri made a diagonal pass, and the football passed directly through the midfield to the left side of the frontcourt. Watson rushed over and took advantage of Ramirez's unsteady position to pass him with a horizontal pass. , and then passed a through ball to McManaman.
Facing Ryan Bertrand's marking, McManaman deceived his center of gravity with a clever fake run, and then caught up with the football himself, forming a single opportunity.
There were also exclamations from the stands at Stamford Bridge.
It is very dangerous for the Blues to give their opponents such an opportunity.
"McManaman went solo!" Wang Tao shouted excitedly.
"Shoot!" Wang Tao continued to shout.
"Ah! Turnbull has done a great job! He blocked the opponent's single attack, and he ensured that the Blues did not lose!" Wang Tao continued to shout.
"Turnbull saved the ball from the bottom line, and Wigan Athletic got the first corner kick opportunity of the game! The threat to Chelsea's goal has not been eliminated yet." Miao Kun accurately analyzed the situation on the field.
Wigan Athletic took a corner kick and Bruma headed the ball out of the penalty area.
