Chapter 49 Bad Luck

Mourinho doesn't know Wansheng's thoughts, he is very confident in his judgment, and the game on the field is not out of control, it is going on according to his ideas.

He believes that Chelsea are invincible!

As for whether or not to score, it still depends on some luck. After all, Chelsea is stronger than Derby County, and it is not strong enough to score goals. Let alone Derby County, even a team that is on the verge of relegation in the Premier League, It's not easy to break the defense.

However, Mourinho still believes in the team's offensive ability, especially the players in the frontcourt - Robben, Drogba, Lampard, plus Damien Duff, Good Johnson and others, these The frontcourt composed of players has a very strong offensive ability.

Mourinho is most confident in Robben.

Robben was in very good shape after arriving at Chelsea, even so good that Mourinho thanked former Chelsea coach Ranieri for him. After beating Everton, Mourinho was very happy to say that Chelsea's possession of Robben has nothing to do with him. , it was former Ranieri who brought the Dutch talent to Stamford Bridge.

"I must say I didn't buy him, it has nothing to do with me, but I was very happy when I knew Robben was going to be a Chelsea player," Mourinho said. "I don't want honours that have nothing to do with me."

Robben was confirmed to join Chelsea in the second half of last season, when coach Ranieri single-handedly manipulated the deal to bring him in.

"Robben is very quick, he has the speed to get behind the defenders, he has the ability to score goals, he has all the qualities of a good player, and he can cooperate with the team."

Mourinho praised Robben like this, which shows how good Robben's performance is. It can be said that Robben has definitely made a great contribution to Chelsea's eight-game winning streak. Without Robben's performance, Chelsea's winning streak would have been ended long ago, and it was Robben's goals and assists that helped Chelsea win consecutive opponents.

......

At this time, Robben also played to the fullest on the field. But not what Mourinho thought. He's in a bit of trouble.

Mourinho doesn't think there are any players in Derby County that can defend against Robben, who is in great shape, especially Robben's position is still a left forward. This is the position in the 433 formation currently used by Chelsea, not a traditional forward, so Robben has a lot of space in the frontcourt, this space plus his state. It's really not easy to defend against.

The full-back on the right side of Derby County is Rousey. Mourinho did research on Derby County before the game. He had seen the defensive performance of this player, but he did not think he could have any impact on Robben one-on-one.

But now Derby County's starting left-back has become Leto Ziegler.

In fact, in the position of full back, Leto Ziegler is a bit like Wansheng's hidden means. He has never been able to occupy the main position, and the number of appearances is not as good as Lu Xi, but he is the focus of Wansheng's training. player. The reason why there are not many appearances on weekdays is more because of game experience and age.

Leto Ziegler is only 18 and a half after all!

When he came to the Derby County club. He is just over seventeen years old, and a player of this age is still too young. Even if his talent is good, after training in Derby County for a year and a half, his strength has improved a lot, but compared with a player with rich experience and mature mentality like Lu Xi It is a little worse, so he and Lichtsteiner can only be used as substitutes for wing defense, and even can be said to be all-around substitutes. Whether it is a left back, a full back, or a central defender, Ziegler can be competent.

Wansheng also wants to slowly let Ziegler increase his game experience and gradually increase his confidence in the game. After a little improvement, he will definitely become a defensive general in the backcourt.

But this time is different.

In the match against Chelsea, there should not be too many loopholes in the back defense. Compared with Lucy, Leto Ziegler's personal defensive ability is much stronger, especially in the face of players like Robben. So Wansheng decided to let Leto Ziegler play and gave him a detailed exhortation before the game.

This worked.

At least Robben has a headache for Leto Ziegler on the field. This opponent who is younger than himself has obvious inexperience in the game, but he has strong personal ability and is very cautious. He never makes a move easily. Whenever he arrives In the frontcourt, the opponent followed him, and the opponent was very difficult to defend, fast and explosive, so it was difficult for him to get rid of it directly.

In the face of such a difficult opponent, even Robben has a headache. Fortunately, the opponent is inexperienced, and he can still find a chance to get rid of it, but even if he gets rid of the opponent, it does not mean that he will get a good opportunity. Will make up for the defense, which also makes Robben aware of the difficulty of Derby County's defense.

Other Chelsea players felt it too.

Although they have always had an advantage, it is not easy to really threaten Derby County's goal. Fortunately, the opponent's counterattack is rare, and there is not much pressure on defense. A few players in the frontcourt can also let go of their hands and feet to attack.

With this idea in mind, Chelsea's offensive has been slightly strengthened, so Derby County has become more passive on the field.

"Chelsea have completely overpowered Derby County!"

Seeing this situation, the media commentator who supported Chelsea couldn't help shouting with joy, but what he noticed was that when the camera pointed to the Chelsea bench, Mourinho, who was sitting there, frowned.

But before he could say anything, he saw changes on the field.

When Chelsea completed a wave of attack, the players did not have time to retreat, and midfielder Morris received a pass and suddenly accelerated. He waved his hand forward while dribbling the ball, which seemed to be a habitual action, but this action made Derby County attack a lot faster. The Chelsea players did not expect the opponent's sudden acceleration. As a result, after a few passes, the ball reached the left. Before the penalty area, Ribery, who was inserted on the wing, got the ball.

All of a sudden Chelsea got nervous.

Before the game, Chelsea still attached great importance to the game. Mourinho pointed out several outstanding players, including Frank Ribery. Even among Chelsea's big stars, few people would not care about Ribery. After all, that's what head coach Mourinho specifically pointed out.

A player who was specifically pointed out by the coach received a pass in front of the left box, what does that mean?

threaten!

At this time, Chelsea was a little flustered by the fast break of Derby County. The two players rushed up to grab the ball, and everyone in the audience was staring at that side. This is a rare sharp attack by Derby County since the opening.

The commentator Alfie also shouted, "Frank Ribery! He received a pass in front of the penalty area, this is a good opportunity!"

......

Wan Sheng also kept an eye on Franck Ribery.

He has coached Ribery many times before, and in training Ribery is not so stubborn to perform 'personal performances'. But at this point he really didn't know what options Ribery would have.

Is it a pass? Or find your own opportunities?

Wan Sheng didn't even know what Ribery was doing right. After all, he is not a player on the field, and he cannot accurately judge the chances of passing the ball and the chances of dribbling the ball himself, so he cautiously stared at Ribery.

What is he going to do next?

Many people also raised the same question as Wansheng. At this moment, Ribery became the focus of everyone's attention. At the same time, Ribery used his excellent foot skills and body to protect the ball. It also attracted two Chelsea defenders.

If he doesn't act anymore. He will be double-teamed.

"Ribery is surrounded!"

Alfie said with a pity, but as soon as he finished speaking, Ribery suddenly wanted to stab the ball to the right, and the football went directly past the defending Carvalho's feet.

Carvalho didn't react for a while!

Others rarely reacted, and even a few players next to them didn't know where the football went, but someone did. That was Morris who ran according to the tactics. This wave of offense was driven by Morris. of. He also followed the rapid advance and ran, he did not expect Ribery to pass the ball. And it was such a delicate ball, but he ran according to the tactics, and rushed towards the football for the first time.

Next, Maurice received a pass from Ribery on the left side with almost no defense!

There was a large space in front of him.

Chelsea's two central defenders, one was defending Bolton Reiter, the other was defending Ribery, and the other players who retreated, including Lampard, were also behind Morris, while marking Van der Vaart, who was rushing forward. As a result, at this moment, Morris was unable to defend at all.

He did not shoot directly, but chose to break into the penalty area!

......

Seeing this scene, Wan Sheng clenched his fists and was excited.

That's what he wanted!

If you don't attack, it's enough. If you attack, you will kill with one hit. This is the tactic of playing Chelsea. As long as you can score a goal, the balance of victory will be greatly tilted towards Derby County, and the situation will be in his hands. .

"Morris! Morris! He broke into the Chelsea box!"

With the shouting of the on-site commentator Alfie, defender Paul Ferreira, who was closely guarding Bolton Reiter, finally woke up from a dream. He avoided Bolton Reiter and charged directly towards Morris.

Morris saw his move and raised his foot.

Not knowing whether Morris was going to shoot or pass the ball, Ferreira directly stretched out his foot to intercept it, and his body slammed into the past with inertia. Suddenly, Morris didn't react and was knocked to the ground.

Wan Sheng stood up immediately.

On the other side, Mourinho also widened his eyes, and the direction he was paying attention to was the referee who ran past.

"Penalty! Penalty!"

There were many cheers from fans in the stands.

Wan Sheng is also very happy. A penalty kick is almost equivalent to a goal. If it can really lead in advance, the situation will be too wonderful for Derby County, but as the referee enters the penalty area, there is no next move. Wan Sheng smiles also disappeared, he looked solemnly.

Sure enough, the referee ran into the penalty area and did not signal a penalty, but asked Morris to stand up, then signaled the game to continue, and awarded the ball to Chelsea.

What does it mean? Wan Sheng was a little at a loss.

Just now, the defender Ferreira's defensive action was definitely too big. It's not that he did it on purpose, but the direct collision in the penalty area was so large that it should have been a foul, and the foul must have a penalty.

"Grass!"

Wan Sheng was quite annoyed, and couldn't help but blurt out a national curse.

The on-site commentator Alfie also said angrily, "No penalty? How could there not be? The referee made a wrong penalty! This is an obvious mistake! Just now, the opponent's defender hit Maurice directly in the penalty area! This should have been It's a penalty!"

That action was too obvious. It was obvious that he couldn't keep his strength and hit Morris directly, which caused Morris to lose his balance all of a sudden. If this is considered a reasonable collision... Premier League penalty The size is too loose.

"But the referee has already made a decision that cannot be changed..." Alfie said regretfully.

That's a penalty!

A penalty kick is likely to directly determine the outcome of the game, especially when Derby County is so passive, a goal is quite important, but the referee's penalty must not be changed, even if it is wrong, it is also a problem after the game, That's how it is now anyway.

Many people understand this truth, but this is Pride Stadium, Derby County fans obviously will not accept such a negative penalty for the team, they keep booing in the audience, and there are all kinds of abuse, Roaring, even intimidating.

These are all for the referee!

If tourists don't know football, they will think that Derby County fans are 'low quality', but in fact, Derby County fans are definitely very good-tempered when they are treated like this in their own home stadium. If it is another stadium, some fans rush into the stadium. Beating the referee is nothing surprising.

But in the end, Chelsea was spared.
