Super Marshal

When referee Van der blew the whistle at the end of the first half, there was a burst of enthusiastic cheers throughout the Olympic Stadium, and fans of both teams were encouraging their players.

Gao Han smiled slightly, and greeted the players who had come down from the court, each of them sweating profusely and panting heavily.

For every player, such a game is very costly.

The score in the first half was still zero to zero, and neither side could score.

Chelsea’s high-pressure press tactics after the opening brought a lot of trouble to Inter Milan, but the real blow was Veron’s injury, which not only caused Inter Milan to lose a valuable substitution spot, but was even lost. Chelsea completely disrupted the rhythm, and since then, Inter Milan's midfield organization has been chaotic.

But the intermission just made Inter Milan take a sigh of relief, which is also a good thing.

"It's okay, take a good rest, we will work hard in the second half."

"Don't say anything, go back and rest first, leave the rest to me."

"Don't talk, I understand everything, leave it to me."

Gao Han hugged the players who walked off the court one by one, personally sent them into the player channel and sent them back to the locker room.

The players are indeed a little disappointed, because the first half played too depressed.

This can be more intuitive when Gao Han walks back to the coaching bench and receives the first half of the game data sent by Sergio Garcia.

The ball possession rate is 53.9%, but the pass success rate is only 74.8%.

Both of these statistics are significantly lower than when Inter Milan runs smoothly, especially the pass success rate.

"They were so aggressive in the first half." Guardiola shook his head.

Mourinho's high-pressure press is a headache, and combined with the characteristics of Chelsea players, it is difficult for Inter Milan to run the ball smoothly, especially after Veron was injured.

Stankovic is also a very good midfielder, but compared with Veron, the gap is still very obvious.

At the very least, the organization and rhythm of the Argentine midfielder are really impressive.

"This is indeed a problem." After hearing this, Gao Han nodded, "But we have to look at it the other way around. The opponents have also paid a heavy price for this. I don't believe they can persist this set of high-pressure tactics throughout the game. the end."

This is absolutely impossible.

Judging from the data in the first half, Inter Milan is indeed a lot worse than usual, but Chelsea is not much better. The pass success rate is a lot lower than Inter Milan, and there are more turnovers, but they can run. Grab, but what this brings is that their physical energy consumption is greater.

The players are neither iron men nor robots. They cannot maintain this high intensity of exercise during the ninety minutes of the game.

"Don't worry, as long as we continue to stick to our own style of play, try to control the ball and rhythm, and incorporate the game into our thinking, I believe it will be effective." Gao Han said very confidently.

The assistants also agreed with him.

This is what Gao Han has been doing in this game. He is waiting for the team to regain control of the ball and rhythm.

Because of this, he didn't use the skill card in the entire first half, because even if it was used, the effect was not great.

After years of accumulated experience, he clearly knows when and under what circumstances can he use it to its fullest power.

"I think we still have to slow down the pace." Guardiola suggested.

Gao Han nodded, this is where he has a more headache.

When Veron was in, the Argentine midfielder was able to complete the alpine arrangement well and stabilize the team's rhythm.

Just like this game, against the Premier League team Chelsea, according to the conventional thinking, Chelsea must hope to speed up the pace, because the fast pace is not conducive to pass control, can contain Inter Milan's advantage.

But Inter Milan definitely hopes to slow down appropriately to facilitate transmission and control.

But after Veron went off the field, Inter Milan's midfield was a bit out of control.

At the very least, the rhythm was taken away by Chelsea, which is why the pass success rate in the first half is so low.

This is also a problem that must be resolved during the Alpine Intermission.

"Haha, guys, you did a great job in the first half!"

In the Chelsea locker room, Mourinho looked very excited because his tactics worked.

Even God did not help Gao Han in this game.

Veron's injury is the best proof, which directly caused Inter Milan's entire midfield to lose ground and was directly suppressed by Chelsea. He made frequent pass and catch errors, giving the Blues a lot of counterattacks.

But it is a pity that Chelsea invested a lot of energy on the defensive end, resulting in not much investment on the offensive end, and failed to grasp these opportunities well, so in the end, they failed to gain a score.

But there is no doubt that the overall situation in the first half was very favorable for Chelsea.

According to the score of zero to zero, Inter Milan is more likely to make mistakes in the second half, and in this kind of game, a goal can often change the fate of both sides.

"In the first half of the game, we did a good job defensively against several of the other's core players, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and other players who didn't have too many opportunities to get the ball, so we This style of play will continue in the second half."

But Mourinho is also aware of some of his own problems, that is, every player works very hard, very hard, just like a tireless marathon runner, running covering every corner of the court, making him high-pressure Pressing tactics can be effective, but the physical consumption is also very large.

This can easily bring a hidden danger.

Once the physical exhaustion is too great, but Chelsea fails to take advantage of the opponent's mistakes in time to establish a lead, then its own risk pressure will continue to increase, the players will be affected, and even their confidence will be shaken.

"This time our opponent is Inter Milan, a team that has never been flattened in the past two years, an alpine team."

When every player in the locker room heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of reverence in his heart.

Yes, Alpine, this has become a big myth in European football.

Some people say that professional players have two big dreams, one is to become a player under Gao Han, and the other is to become a player who defeats Gao Han.

For Chelsea players, the former is out of reach, they can only choose to become the latter.

"Our opponents are strong and have excellent defensive capabilities. Therefore, our two wingers in the second half should actively seize the opportunity to participate in the offensive in the frontcourt."

When Mourinho said this, he looked deeply at Ashley Cole and Essien.

"Of course, the premise is to ensure a sound defense."

Essien did a very eye-catching performance in this game. The entire first half did not leave Cristiano Ronaldo with too many opportunities. When it was time to foul, he fouled decisively, and when it was time to grab, he was also very active. Grab, coverage is large, and the contribution on the defensive end is quite obvious.

But what made Mourinho the most eye-catching was his long shot after the opening.

That was the most threatening opportunity for Chelsea to score in the first half, but it was a little bit higher.

If that goal is scored, the game will be completely rewritten.

Ashley Cole’s left is Chelsea’s usual main attack channel, but Mourinho focused on the right, Essien understood the coach’s high expectations for him, and nodded heavily.

In fact, he is also very happy to try the development of the right wing. After all, there are Ballack, Lampard and Makelele in the middle. If he can play on the right, it will be good for him.

"Everyone, it is often said that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. We have been preparing for this for three years. We are ready. I believe that victory will belong to all those who are willing to work hard and sacrifice."

"I believe that victory will belong to us!"

"We had some problems with our defense in the first half, especially on the two wing defenses."

In the Inter Milan locker room, Gao Han is also tactically arranging midfield.

"We made some adjustments in the second half, Adriano, you have to watch Ashley Cole hard for me, don't let him press too much, you should know his threat on the left."

Adriano understands that the coach is reminding him to pay attention to the frontcourt defense.

"I understand, boss."

"You know, standing there is the best shock to them." Gao Han pointed to Adriano and said.

This is very exciting for the Brazilian center, because it is the best affirmation of his strength.

As long as he appears on the court, even if he just stands there casually, it is already the best deterrent.

"Essien was very active this time, but apart from a shot in the first half, there was no decent chance. I expect Chelsea will focus on this aspect in the second half, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Cristiano Ronaldo stood up and said, "Don't worry, boss, I'll follow suit."

It is not difficult to see from the Portuguese's expression that he was also tossed by Essien in the first half. There is no good chance, so he is a little angry now.

Since you don't give me a chance to perform, then I won't make you feel better.

Gao Han nodded, but reminded: "Keep calm and be ready to fight back at any time. Just hit Essien."

Cristiano Ronaldo's speed advantage is quite obvious, whether it is Alpine or the players themselves, they are very confident.

"Yaya Toure, Cambiasso, Evra, our entire defensive strategy on the right is one point. We can't let them cut to the center. The best thing is to force them to the side. You understand me. Mean?"

The few players named all nodded, indicating that they understood.

Neither Essien nor Anelka is a traditional wide player, especially Anelka, who is better at cutting to the middle or breaking into the penalty area.

According to Gao Han's thinking, as long as they are forced to the side, even if it is a pass, their threat can be reduced to a minimum.

At the very least, Cannavaro and Vidic restrict Drogba in the middle. Alpine is still very relieved.

Grab one side, put one side, this is Alpine's defensive strategy.

As for why it is placed on the right ~www.readwn.com~ Gao Han also has his own considerations.

Ashley Cole is a full-back, and once he stabilizes his body and mind and devotes himself to defense, he is still very good.

But Essien is different. He is a friendly cameo. When he plays midfield, he is characterized by running around the court. Once this type of player is released, it will easily become the biggest hidden danger in Chelsea's defense.

Therefore, Gao Han put Inter Milan's sharpest counter-attack weapon Cristiano Ronaldo there.

It can be said that since the game has progressed, both sides have been under tremendous pressure and there is no certainty that they will win, but what Gao Han wants to do is to give Chelsea a channel, let them attack first, and then from this channel. To disintegrate Chelsea's defenses.

As for whether it can work, it is beyond his control.

But he believes that Mourinho will definitely attack if he wants to win.

Even if Mourinho is afraid, what about the players?
