Chapter Fifty-Two, Airtight

Before the game, Jin Taige mobilized the players in the locker room: "You must remember that this is Old Trafford, not to mention Jose Mourinho's Chelsea, even Real Madrid, Bayern, Juventus Come, let's do the same and they will admit it!"

After Jin Taige's blood mobilization, the morale of the players was high, and they rushed out of the locker room and came to the court. Jin Taige also followed behind them and went out of the player tunnel together.

Scholes, who followed behind him, found it very interesting. Usually in work and life, Jin Taige almost never swears, and has always been calm and resolute, but when he arrives in the locker room and on the court, he seems to have changed as a person, full of passion and high morale.

The only constant is his determination and determination, as well as his love for football.

Jin Taige took the initiative to come to the visiting team's coaching bench and shook hands with Mourinho. The two did not talk and took their places.

"As the whistle blew for the first half, the game began. Manchester United were wearing their home red shirts, while Chelsea were wearing blue, a very interesting red and blue match in the second round of the Premier League. war."

"The game was kicked off by Manchester United and they picked up the pace of possession as soon as they started, and all the attacking players were pressing into the opposition's half."

"Carrick split the side, gave the ball to Ryan Giggs on the left, watch this cross!"

"This cross was topped by Chelsea captain John Terry. It's a Manchester United corner!"

"Giggs took the penalty forward and Rooney grabbed the header! Oops, high, United missed an opening lead."

After the opening, Manchester United kept pressing Chelsea. In the 10th minute of the game, Manchester United had already had three shots, and two of these three shots were within the range of the goal frame. If it weren't for Cech's heroic performance , Chelsea has long conceded the ball.

Mourinho on the sidelines commanded the players loudly: "Keep a good formation, don't let them start easily!"

After resisting Manchester United's onslaught in the opening game, Mourinho's team slowly stabilized. They organized the defense effectively, and Manchester United could not find a suitable offensive opportunity for a while. Chelsea put up a classic iron barrel formation, which is Mourinho's "bus tactics", which sealed off the entire defensive area.

As long as Ryan Giggs and Nani come to the edge of the penalty area, they will be surrounded by two or three opponents, making it difficult for the ball to reach the penalty area. The occasional pass or two was cleared by a group of defenders in the Chelsea penalty area.

Seeing this situation, Jin Taige came to the sidelines and shouted loudly: "Raphael, go ahead boldly."

Raphael was waiting for this sentence. The blood of the attack was flowing in the Brazilian player's body. He heard Jin Tiger's arrangement and immediately moved forward.

At this time, Nani just got the ball. Nani saw Raphael coming up. He immediately knocked behind him with his heel, passed the ball to Rafael, and then turned around and ran to the bottom line.

Rafael didn't stop the ball either. He rubbed the ball, bypassed Chelsea's Ashley Cole and De Bruyne's heads, and passed it directly to Nani's feet.

After Nani received the ball, he glanced at the penalty area and was about to pass the ball into the penalty area.

But just as he was about to kick, the linesman's whistle sounded - offside.

A good attacking opportunity was wasted like this, and Nani was a little depressed, but he did not forget to extend the thumb to Rafael behind him, indicating that he just passed the ball beautifully.

Although the ball was offside, Jin Tiger saw the hope of the team's goal. He greeted Rafael and Evra again and let them both boldly step forward and assist.

After a period of time, Manchester United's attack had some improvement, but only relying on the tactics of passing from the side could not open the situation at all. And Van Persie and Rooney are not pillar-shaped centers in the traditional sense.

Coupled with a lot of Chelsea defenders in the penalty area, Manchester United has not ushered in a goal for a long time.

Several of Chelsea's defenders were also very smart. Throughout the game, Chelsea did not give Manchester United any free-kick opportunities near the penalty area, except for Ramirez's yellow card near the center circle.

The two magic weapons for breaking the dense defense, the cross and the free kick all failed. Therefore, until the end of the first half, Manchester United did not finally open the situation. Jin Taige looked at the airtight bus in front of Chelsea, and he gritted his teeth with hatred, but there was nothing he could do.

At halftime, Jin Taige instructed the players to continue to speed up the offensive rhythm in the second half, pass more balls to find space, and choose long-range shots when appropriate.

At the beginning of the second half, Jin Tiger made a tactical adjustment. He replaced Carrick with Anderson, and wanted to use Anderson's technology to tear apart the central defense line in front of Chelsea's penalty area and make the offense more varied.

Anderson served as a substitute for two consecutive games. He was already a little dissatisfied. He didn't understand why Jintaig would use the combination of Kanter and Carrick. When he was with Carrick, Carrick defended, attacked by himself, and went to the top. That's how he won this season. But why Jin Taige did not trust himself.

Anderson doesn't look down on Kante. He always feels that technology comes first. Only by suppressing the opponent with a powerful attack can he get the lead on the scene. Even if the opponent scores three goals, he can lead the team to score four goals. The ball, overtake the opponent. What he advocates is that the offense is scoring more goals than the opponent; and the offense that Kintiger advocates is the full push after the defensive line is arranged. The two concepts are fundamentally different.

So when Anderson came on, he only had one idea: to score key goals and then prove his worth.

Anderson's old problem has been committed again. He rushes from left to right in the frontcourt and wants to rely on one person's ability to break through Chelsea's defense.

But he thinks too much of himself and thinks too weakly of Chelsea. This set of defense was tactically arranged by Mourinho himself. Terry and the midfielder Ramirez on the back line formed a central axis of Chelsea's defense, supplemented by several defensive players on both sides. Chelsea Not even a fly can get in the door.

Anderson still fought alone, and his teammates had run out of space several times, but Anderson still didn't pass the ball, which eventually led to the end of the offense.

Jin Taige was so angry that he threw the water bottle to the ground.

But what he didn't even think about was yet to come.

After Anderson's breakthrough was stolen, Ramirez directly handed the ball to Lampard beside him. At this time, Kante rushed up for the first time, trying to block the attack.

But Lampard didn't stop the ball. He made a long pass and went directly to De Bruyne on the wing.

When De Bruyne received the ball, the only defenders in front of him were Ferdinand and Smalling, while Chelsea's Hazard and Oscar rushed forward.

Chelsea 3 on 2!

Manchester United are in danger!
