Football’s First Defender

Lampard's goal is not much worse than the goal, otherwise if the first half is not halfway, Chelsea can take a two-goal lead, then for the away game Barcelona, ​​the gap between the two goals is absolutely It's not easy to catch it back!

One goal difference, because the score in the first leg is only 0 to 0, so if Barcelona can really score, it will directly occupy the advantage of promotion because of the advantage of away goals! So after Barcelona has lost the ball, although they are in a disadvantageous stage, there are still opportunities! And Chelsea, there can be no slack, their lead is not safe!

Although Chelsea’s players are really fierce in the frontcourt press, but no matter how strong the defense is, it is of course impossible to guarantee that the ball will be intercepted every time. The Barcelona players will still make full use of their personal abilities, or It is a good opportunity for team cooperation to complete the breakthrough from the backcourt and transfer the ball to Chelsea's halftime!

At this time, the Chelsea players will correspondingly enter the state of positional defense, using excellent defensive ability to limit Barcelona's pass in the frontcourt to penetrate the attack!

"Barça is struggling very much on the offensive end!"

"Chelsea's defense structure is very good. In this game away from home, Barcelona, ​​which has not invested so many players on the offensive end, can't create too many threatening offensive opportunities at all!"

"Iniesta hit the goal with a long shot from the outside and flew directly out of the bounds!"

Home court advantage is in all aspects. In many games where the teams are evenly matched in strength, the home team will always occupy a lot of small off-court advantages because of their home court!

These various favorable factors, in the end, may affect the progress of the game!

For example, at this moment, after Iniesta's shot flew directly out of the baseline, the home ball boy behind Cech threw another football at the first time. Cech quickly positioned the ball and kicked it out!

"Cech drove the ball to the left with a big foot, deep in Barcelona's halftime!"

"Alves, the defense on this side has not yet stood firm!"

"Malouda got the goal of the ball, and went straight to the front. After landing, he speeded up and ran over!"

"Alves, go after Malouda on the right side!"

Malouda's game experience is very good. Facing Alves's chase, Malouda directly moved to the right side while running, actively looking for his body to fight, and directly rammed the chasing Alves. A stumbling, unable to rush to the fastest speed!

Alves can only choose to go further to the right and want to overtake outside, but Malouda is also not slow at rushing!

Alves can only guarantee that he will follow Malouda, but he can't complete the rescue in the first time!

It's just that Malouda's route is indeed closer to the left. Whether it is passing the ball directly into the penalty area or preparing to break into the penalty area, you need to slow down a certain speed to complete the corresponding technical action!

And Alves, occupying the position on the right, only needs to keep accelerating and chasing Malouda to ensure his defensive position. As long as Malouda slows down, Alves can directly catch up!

When running at high speed, Malouda did not choose a large change of direction, but to ensure his speed as much as possible, only slightly inclined to the right side of the running path, and Malouda opened his arms within the range allowed by the rules. , Deliberately find Alves's body to fight!

Alves saw that there was really no way to run in front of Malouda, especially Malouda's arms, which directly blocked his acceleration forward route. In the end, Alves could only choose to get started!

Malouda was waving his arms and holding Alves, and Alves did not hesitate to stretch out his hand to pull Malouda's jersey!

The two were running at high speed, and at the same time they staggered into the left edge of the penalty area!

"Malouda stopped abruptly, trying to step on the ball to stop someone! I ran into Alves who had been defending him and chasing him!"

"beep--"

The abrupt whistle sounded!

The referee blows the whistle!

A foul in the penalty area?

The Barcelona players are the first to be stunned! Because no matter how you look at this ball, it will not be a foul for Malouda, and if you blow Alves' foul, then the position of the ball must be a penalty!

The Chelsea fans at the scene were surprised by the whistle first, and then ecstatic in their hearts, but unfortunately, they had not had time to burst into cheers!

The referee has already made his own judgment gesture!

"No penalty! Free kick! The referee signaled that the two sides had just pushed and shoved from outside the penalty area and called Alves a foul! It was just a free kick!"

"It's just that the whistle of the penalty sounded a bit slowly!"

The referee whistled that Malouda entered the penalty area and the foul before the emergency stop was just a free kick that pressed the penalty area line!

The position of this free kick is not too good. Although the straight line distance from the goal is so close, the angle of the goal is also very limited!

Just now Malouda has reached the level of the small penalty area line, so according to common sense, it is difficult for this ball to hit the goal directly!

The angle is limited, and the defensive players in the penalty area are dense, or choose to pass, which may cause chaos in the penalty area.

However, Drogba took the initiative to ask for this goal, wanting to rely on his own strength to forcibly create shooting opportunities!

"Drogba! A long approach distance!"

"approach!"

"It hit the door!"

"Valdes!"

"A magical save!"

"Block the ball!"

With enough run-up distance, Drogba ran to the billboard outside the court for the angle of his shot, and made the starting position for the run-up!

A strong volley! The ball is not high, that is, half man! However, the long-distance run-up and an arc-shaped run-up route made Drogba's strong volley, which also made a powerful arc!

It directly bypassed the double wall composed of Iniesta and Messi, and then immediately spun back and flew to the goal!

Drogba's kick hits the goal, the ball is fast, and this arc is completed extremely fast by the speed of the ball. Before reaching the dense area of ​​Barcelona defenders in front of the goal, he has completed the turn and flew to the goal!

However, the goal line is still guarding Barcelona in this game to play the most stable Valdes!

Valdes, after Drogba kicked out the ball, he found that it was a direct kick with his foot. He didn't have time to observe in detail. He could only subconsciously jump up like an octopus, open his body, and expand the defense area. !

This kick was eventually blocked by Valdes' right arm. Drogba almost relied on his personal ability to score and successfully scored again for Chelsea!

"Chelsea's corner kick chance!"

This time, as Drogba also entered the penalty area to compete, Yang Feng's defensive attention was obviously not so much!

Only one Abidal is responsible for marking Yang Feng. Barcelona's two central defenders are focusing on Drogba and Terry!

Unlike just now, when Drogba went to take a free kick, Pique came directly to look at defending Yang Feng!

Yang Feng had just wanted to make a supplementary shot. The football that Valdes threw out happened to be near Yang Feng, but Yang Feng was stuck in the position of Pique on the road, unable to move forward, and missed the time for the supplementary shot. !

And now Abidal's defense, who has been rotated, is obviously not as good as Pique!

"Lampard takes a corner kick!"

"Yang Feng! One suddenly plugged in from behind! Come to the front point! Force Abidal! Shake his head to attack the door!"

"This ball! Point to the back! Valdez swoops sideways!"

"Sliding out! What a pity!"

The set-piece tactics came out, and Yang Feng also completed the personal duel with Abidal, and took the lead to the dessert position of the previous point, but it is a pity that this header was a little too close!

The ball was very close to the goal, and it was less than ten centimeters away from the back post. It really scared the Barcelona players into a cold sweat!

Especially Valdes, after this ball, he can only rely on shouting to remind his teammates to pay attention to the defense of everyone in Chelsea, to vent their inner emotions!

The game continues! The Barcelona players did not intend to be on the road, they dragged on, waiting for the second half to attack again!

Even in this game, it is not Barcelona's strongest offensive lineup, but Barcelona's players have been trying to make progress on the offensive end, and they have to prove their ability in front of the world!

But, unfortunately, they are facing today's European football, and the defensive ability may be the strongest Chelsea!

Barcelona, ​​which is not the best offensive firepower, poses a limited threat on the offensive end. In addition, this is Chelsea’s home stadium at Stamford Bridge, not the Nou Camp in the first round. One goes after another, Chelsea is playing better and better. Barcelona is in great trouble!

"Iniesta picked a pass to the penalty area! It was resolved by Yang Feng again!"

"Yang Feng did not perform much on the defensive end in this game, because his teammates in front of him helped him complete a lot of defensive tasks!"

"But in the limited opportunity to appear on the camera, Yang Feng has always used perfect performance to block the possibility of Barcelona trying to score into the penalty area or pass the ball over Yang Feng!"

"This ball was directly topped by Yang Feng to Anelka on the right!"

"Chelsea's counterattack opportunity!"

The Barcelona players wanted to retreat to their half-court like a tide, but in the tide, one of the two waves at the front was wearing a blue jersey!

"Lampard! Just 2 steps with the ball, he was directly dragged by Iniesta by his side!"

"But when it was about to fall to the ground, Lampard still passed the ball, a long straight pass, and passed it into the penalty area of ​​Barcelona!"

"Drogba! He ran at the forefront of the counterattack, with Abidal on the right alone!"

Drogba gave full play to his advantage in physical confrontation, directly leaning against Abidal on the right hand side with his body, turning his body halfway, completely blocking Abidal on his side, unable to move!

Then he jumped up and unloaded the ball with his left foot perfectly in the air. After that, Drogba, who had already rushed into the penalty area, could try to hit the goal directly after landing!

Even though Valdes has already come out, but in Drogba's vision, he still has a large shooting angle, even if it is a left foot shot, Drogba also thinks that he has a high probability of helping the team expand the score!

But, suddenly, Drogba felt his eyes turn! From staring at the ball, to looking up at the sky directly!

"Drogba! Down! Down!"

"This ball!"

"The referee didn't say anything?"

"Valdes rushed over at full speed and hugged the football!"

The referee came near the penalty area, stopped, and quickly waved his hands flat, indicating that there was no problem with the ball!

And Drogba, sitting on the ground, raised his hands and complained to the referee!

After seeing the referee making nothing, Drogba lay flat on the ground, thumping his hands on the ground, expressing his anger and incomprehension!

In this era without video playback, the referee's influence on the game process is really too great!

Even in the broadcast footage, Abidal did have a very obvious pulling action at the end of this ball, which affected Drogba's balance. It was indeed a penalty for a penalty, but the referee no longer May be changed!

Even if several nearby Chelsea players went to the referee to protest together, it was of no avail! The referee ran away without paying any attention!

Instead, Barcelona players, regardless of their three-seven-ones, directly after Valdes gave the ball, they attacked Chelsea's defense line. Fortunately, Ballack relied on a foul to stop Barcelona's attack in time!

Barcelona did not get too many opportunities on the offensive end~www.readwn.com~ instead, there were continuous accidents in the back line! This also made Guardiola dare not attack so recklessly, let the team take the initiative to find opportunities!

With Guardiola's latest instructions being brought into the stadium, Barcelona were not able to create a threatening attack, and became more powerless to penetrate into the 30-meter area of ​​Chelsea!

Guardiola's two full-backs were completely restricted by Guardiola's forward attack range. As a result, Barcelona, ​​which had no threat from the wing, even passed and accused of infiltration was severely choked by Chelsea because of a serious shortage of manpower!

In the end, Barcelona's offense, even long-range shooting became a difficult task!

Guardiola's idea is very simple, one goal behind, Barcelona still has a big chance, to catch the tie is to advance by yourself! Two goals behind, as a guest at Stamford Bridge, Barcelona may really explain here!

Let the team try again on the offensive end. With the current situation, the probability of Barcelona getting a goal is far lower than the success rate of Chelsea's counterattack. Guardiola can only ask the team to defend first, at least kill Chelsea to counterattack. Don’t let Chelsea go crazy at home!

Chelsea, who holds the lead, naturally won't come to the top at this time and launch a big attack! After Barcelona began to shrink the lineup, even though Chelsea had the initiative, they were still stubborn, and the forces invested on the offensive end were limited!

The two teams that had played back and forth before, and the offensive and defensive rhythms were extremely fast, suddenly fell silent on the court!

In the last 15 minutes of the first half of the game, the two sides fell into the strangulation of the midfield, and there was no more threatening attack!

In the end, Chelsea took a one-goal lead and ended the first half and entered the intermission time!
