Chapter 937: Warcraft! Drogba! (First update, please subscribe!)
Bale's goal helped Real Madrid score a crucial goal in the final stages of the first half.
This goal also turned Chelsea's desperate defense in the first half into a bubble, which also greatly damaged Chelsea's morale to a certain extent.
"Real Madrid's cross-running this time is very critical, especially the cross-running between Suker and Kaka. Kaka is pulling towards the wing, and Chelsea cannot let go of the restrictions on Suker. There are also front and back diagonally. Marcelo intervened, and it can be said that Real Madrid’s attack was definitely carried out in a planned manner.”
Wenger shook his head and said with emotion: "Under this decision, Chelsea fell into a passive position, and the first half of the game is almost over. They need to be more careful in the second half!"
"On the contrary, I feel that one goal is acceptable. Chelsea scored zero goals in the first half against Real Madrid. This is the ideal state. This is also something Chelsea has always emphasized, but as the head coach, Di Matteo told us It’s the same, and I won’t tell my true intention. Therefore, I think that falling behind by one goal is acceptable for Di Matteo and Chelsea!”
Ferguson coughed and said: "The key is how Chelsea will make tactical changes in the second half. This is the most critical thing."
"On the one hand, it is Suker's explosion, and on the other hand, Real Madrid's overall stable defense. It is not easy to pry open Real Madrid's goal when they are lagging behind!"
Both Wenger and Ferguson are talking about their views.
At the same time, the stadium also restarted.
But there was not much time left in the first half. Real Madrid had no intention of continuing to attack, and Chelsea was unable to counterattack.
Both sides are waiting for the start of the second half in tacit understanding!
Finally, the whistle sounded.
The first half is over.
Real Madrid leads Chelsea 1:0.
In the Chelsea dressing room, Di Matteo looked at the players and said slowly: "Don't pay too much attention to this goal. We still have 45 minutes. This time is enough for us to recover the score!"
"In the second half, we needed to make some changes as a whole. We couldn't devote too many resources to defense. But the good news is that in the first half, we used joint defense and didn't get any cards!"
After a pause, Di Matteo said in a deep voice: "Yes, in the second half, we can use fouls to stop Suker's advance, and during the counterattack, we can create corner kicks and set kicks as much as possible!"
In Chelsea's lineup, Drogba is a very powerful contender.
Although Drogba is no longer in peak condition, Warcraft's physical fitness is still a crushing performance.
In terms of set pieces, Brazilian defender David Luiz is also a good player.
Therefore, during the advancement process, you can appropriately seek set pieces and corner kicks. Of course, it is best to score directly.
But this possibility is not high!
At the same time, Di Matteo also emphasized the role of Lampard, and the scoring ability of the magic lamp is very strong.
Throughout the first half, in order to relieve the pressure on the defense, Lampard had to drop back to mark Suker.
But after the second half, they had no retreat and had no choice but to fight Real Madrid.
Put more effort into counterattack.
At the same time, he used foul tactics in defense to delay Real Madrid's offense.
On the other side, in the Real Madrid locker room, Mourinho is also arranging tactics.
Unlike Di Matteo's eccentric approach, Mourinho still emphasizes being upright.
Since we are in the lead, we should focus on this goal, constantly consume Chelsea's physical energy, and defend well at the same time. This is the stable way to win the game.
To this end, Mourinho will increase defensive strength at the 55th and 70th minutes respectively to strive for the stability of the team.
Di Maria listened to the tactical explanation, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.
Once the team enters the defense, his probability of playing becomes less.
But there is no way, this is Mourinho's tactical thinking.
Once they take the lead, Real Madrid will quickly enter the defensive phase.
Furthermore, even if Chelsea can reverse the score in the second half, Real Madrid still has Suker's trump card.
Players from both sides began to rest.
They took a short break to recover some physical energy as much as possible, so they did not have any communication.
When they finally calmed down a bit, the staff outside the locker room said it was time to go out.
The second half of the Champions League final is about to begin.
"This is the second half of the 2011/2012 Champions League final!"
"Based on the confrontation in the first half, Real Madrid temporarily took the lead through Gareth Bale's goal, but this lead is not guaranteed, and through the first half, we can also see that Chelsea faced Real Madrid's attack , Their defense did a great job!”
"This is completely different from Chelsea at the beginning of the season, but if they only know how to defend, Chelsea will not be able to win the game, so they need to show more offensive capabilities in the second half!"
"Lampard, Drogba, Mata, Kalu, etc. These players must perform. Only in this way can they equalize the score from Real Madrid!"
Following the commentator's explanation, players from both sides entered the court and changed sides to fight.
Throughout the Allianz Stadium, Real Madrid and Chelsea fans were cheering loudly.
Especially the fans of Chelsea, they cheered at the top of their lungs, and the sound waves seemed to overwhelm the fans of Real Madrid.
Chelsea fans also knew that the situation had come to a critical moment. If they did not perform well, they would fail again in the Champions League as before.
This Chelsea team is not in the best state in history, but it is the most resilient and plays the most reasonably.
In addition, how long can veterans like Drogba and Lampard play?
How long can their state last?
If they miss this time, will there be a next time?
Therefore, for Chelsea players and fans, this game is really to be played as the last Champions League final!
Suk stood in the stadium, and he saw Chelsea's half, and the overall feeling was a little different.
They began to communicate more.
In the first half, due to too much defensive pressure, there was little communication, and they were almost running around.
After entering the second half, they began to open their mouths and communicate in various ways.
Suk could not hear clearly, but he felt that Chelsea was going to make a strong counterattack.
However, Suk was not too worried!
On the one hand, he has confidence in his own defense.
On the other hand, under the current situation, Real Madrid can still control the situation.
"The ball is passed to Suker's feet, Suker chooses to do it himself!"
Just as Suker was about to start, he saw Bosingwa suddenly open his arms, as if he was going to knock him down.
Suker stopped and flicked sideways, trying to shake off the opponent.
Bosingwa did not keep up, but Lampard next to him retreated from the back and kicked the ball to Cahill.
"Hiss~~" In the stands, Mandzukic, who was watching the game, couldn't help grinning; "Chelsea's defensive posture is wrong!"
"If Lampard hadn't retreated on his own initiative, Bosingwa would have fouled!" Modric also nodded.
He saw that Bosingwa had already reached out to pull Suker, but fortunately Lampard retreated, otherwise Suker would have been pulled back.
"Foul tactics~" Duimovic shook his head; "It's really the only way to stop Suker!"
"This is also difficult!" Mandzukic shook his head: "We have tried to foul, but it is not easy to hold Suker, unless you throw him down directly!"
As Mandzukic said, when Suker received the ball again, Lampard failed to catch up this time.
Bosingwa reached out and pulled Suker again, but Suker almost fell.
When he was about to fall to the ground, Bosingwa grabbed Suker's ankle with his palm, which made Suker stop dribbling.
Beep!
The whistle sounded.
The referee ran over and showed Bosingwa a yellow card.
He did not see Bosingwa grab Suker's ankle, but he did see the foul.
In the 53rd minute, Real Madrid got a chance for a set-piece.
Because the position was not good enough, Suker did not take the set-piece, but ran into the penalty area to prepare for the header.
However, when Suker ran in, Chelsea's players surrounded Suker.
"Chelsea's defense against Suker is still so fierce!"
Spanish commentator Gonzalez shook his head.
With such a dense defense, even Suker would find it difficult to head the ball.
This is indeed the case. With Suker restricted, Cahill headed the ball out with all his strength.
But during the header, an accident occurred. Khedira failed to aim at the landing point, and the ball went through Khedira's feet and penetrated the back line at the same time.
"Good opportunity!"
Seeing this scene, Drogba started immediately.
He turned around and chased the ball with all his strength.
At the same time, Ramos next to Drogba was also chasing hard.
The two wrestled while running, but Ramos found that he couldn't push Drogba at all.
"Pepe!"
Ramos yelled, seeking support
Pepe came from the side and directly shoveled.
He shoveled Drogba to the ground with the ball.
"Oh my God! Khedira's bad mistake almost let Drogba complete a one-on-one opportunity. Pepe's tackle was crucial, although he received a yellow card for it."
"Chelsea got the first front-court set-piece of the game, and their central defender David Luiz took the penalty!"
"Is Chelsea's counterattack about to start?"
The cheers of Chelsea fans in the stadium became louder.
But after the first counterattack, it means that Chelsea will continue to launch counterattacks.
"Stand in a little bit!"
"Push in! Push in!"
Chelsea players desperately pushed in, trying to stand in a more dangerous position.
But Real Madrid players did not give them such a chance at all, and held their opponents tightly.
At this time, David Luiz took a penalty kick!
Bang!
The ball was kicked out directly, and he chose to shoot directly.
This is a falling leaf ball!
The ball spun, passed the wall, and fell suddenly towards the goal.
Casillas made a desperate save, and he saved the ball in front of the goal line, but after the ball entered the penalty area, there was another chaos.
Finally, Marcelo cleared the ball.
"This is so scary!" Gonzalez broke out in a cold sweat: "David Luiz's set-piece angle was so good. Of course, Casillas' save was also crucial, but it would have been better if he hadn't let the ball slip!"
However, Gonzalez also understood.
After all, in that situation just now, it was crucial for Casillas to save the ball, so how could he be asked not to let it go.
In addition, the result was good.
Marcelo successfully cleared the ball.
However, this counterattack caused Chelsea's morale to rebound to a certain extent.
Suk could feel that Chelsea became more persistent in scoring goals.
Their counterattack intentions were also stronger!
"This is not good news!"
Suk frowned slightly.
He thought it was necessary to increase the offensive strength.
"Suk dribbled on the left wing again. He passed Mikel and rushed to the penalty area from the rib area. It was a two-pass-one wall match. Beautiful!"
Gonzalez was about to shout, but Cahill suddenly came from the side and destroyed the ball before Suk.
"Cahill!!!"--"
British commentator Rowell cheered loudly.
"A wonderful clearance. He is definitely the most stable defensive point for Chelsea this season! Without Terry, Cahill has taken on the defensive burden for Chelsea!"
On the court, Suker also turned his head and looked at Cahill running towards the side to catch the ball.
This season, Cahill has quickly integrated into Chelsea and his performance is quite wonderful.
Just like this clearance, if it were any other defender, they would basically not be able to catch up.
But the reason why Cahill was able to appear was that on the one hand, he had a prejudgment, and on the other hand, he was highly focused, allowing him to see Suker's movements.
Real Madrid's attack continued.
At the same time, Chelsea was able to get some sporadic counterattack opportunities.
Compared to the first half, they played better.
However, the goal did not appear.
The situation was somewhat deadlocked!
Real Madrid was scheduled to make a substitution at the 55th minute, but the first substitution was not made until the 68th minute.
Khedira went off the court and Carvalho came on.
And Chelsea replaced Kalou with Torres.
As the former Holy Child, Torres's playing style is completely different from before.
T9 has become Tito.
After coming on the court, Torres started running wildly.
From the front court to the back court, he kept chasing Suker.
Until he forced Suker into the corner, and then cooperated with his teammates to kick the ball out of the sideline.
Suker stood up and couldn't help sighing.
This Chelsea really put a lot of effort on him, and it was like a dog-skin plaster, which could not be shaken off.
Torres also looked at Suker.
He was very unwilling in his heart. As a striker, his task should be to score goals.
But now, he can only run up and down, and even do some dirty and tiring work.
There is no way!
This is his way of survival now!
If he doesn't do these, he will have no place in Chelsea.
Although he was very unwilling in his heart, he could only do this!
"Hold! Hold!"
Di Matteo shouted loudly.
Suker has already issued 3 yellow cards on them.
This delayed the game to 70 minutes. After the substitution, the number of cards increased.
Di Matteo had to carry out the foul tactics on the defensive end to buy time for their forwards to score goals.
The game situation became a bit stalemate.
Supported by Chelsea's resilience, they stubbornly resisted Real Madrid's attack again and again, and used sporadic counterattack opportunities to threaten Real Madrid's goal.
But so far, they have not found a good opportunity.
Time passed little by little, and finally came to the 83rd minute.
In a dribbling advance by Lampard, Chelsea got a set-piece on the right side of the court.
This time, Chelsea's No. 10 player Mata took the set-piece.
Mata looked at the penalty area, and his goal was clear.
"This may be Chelsea's last set-piece in this game. Can they seize this opportunity?"
As soon as the voice fell, Mata took the set-piece without hesitation.
At the same time, Drogba suddenly ran forward, which Ramos did not expect.
He just reminded Pepe, and at this moment, Drogba suddenly jumped up, and he pressed Pepe behind him to prevent him from jumping, and at the same time shook his head.
Looking back at the moon!
The ball refracted and flew into the dead corner at the far end.
Swish!
It went into the net!
In the 83rd minute, Chelsea evened the score.
"Goal!!! Goal!!! Goal!!! Goal!!!!!!!!!"
British commentator Rowell shouted excitedly.
"Drogba!! At the critical moment, Drogba stood up, and he scored a goal with a wonderful header, helping Chelsea to equalize the score!"
"In the final stage of the game, Chelsea scored a goal and kept hope!"
"The game will be dragged into overtime!"
The commentator shouted excitedly.
And in the stadium, tens of thousands of Chelsea fans were boiling in an instant.
When no one believed in them, these veterans used their tenacious fighting spirit to fight against Real Madrid's attack again and again and equalized the score.
What a great thing!
At this moment, they retained the hope of victory!
A goal in the 83rd minute!
If they had delayed the game for another 10 minutes or so, they could have dragged the game into overtime.
This is a good thing for them.
They believe that when the game time is prolonged, they can beat Real Madrid with their rich experience.
At the same time, Mourinho on the sidelines narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Substitution!"
Mourinho turned his head and said; "Angel, get ready to play!"
Hearing this, Di Maria stood up suddenly.
Although he may not have had the opportunity to play before, he was still ready for warm-up, so there was no need to warm up specially.
With Chelsea's goal, Real Madrid made substitutions.
Bale went off the court and Di Maria came on.
Chelsea also wanted to make substitutions, but their back line was already the best arrangement. At this time, substitutions might affect the balance.
At this time, the problem of Terry and Ivanovic not being able to play was infinitely magnified.
Ten minutes is not a long time.
But for Chelsea, this is also the most critical and difficult moment!
We must defend!
