Chapter 414: Anthony Taylor Descends from HeavenJiang Yuan threw his head upwards violently, expressing his excitement after scoring the goal. This is the last league game of the season, and it is related to the FA Cup championship. It is impossible for players from both sides to hold back, and Jiang Yuan is of course the same. "good good!" Ibrahimovic put his arms around Jiang Yuan's neck and rubbed his hair, while Zuma ran up from behind and put his arms around both Ibrahimovic and Jiang Yuan's necks at the same time. "Chelsea!" Boom! "Chelsea!" Boom! Cheers broke out at the scene. Sanchez took the lead and Jiang Yuan caught up with the score. Both teams proved one thing with their game situation, that is, the strength of Arsenal and Chelsea is very, very similar.
"Move to the middle, you must remember to move to the middle. You must close the distance when defending. The opponent's attack is very strong, you must stay focused!" Although it was a draw, it can be heard from the tone of his voice that Mourinho is in a relatively nervous state. There is no way, Chelsea must win this game, because it is related to whether Mourinho can retire gloriously at Stanford. If Chelsea wins this game, it can be said that they have won a championship with relatively high gold content this season. The same goes for Wenger, of course. If nothing unexpected happens, these should be the Frenchman's last few seasons at Arsenal. However, due to his age, Wenger does not have as crazy a desire for the championship as Mourinho. "Come here!" Wenger waved Bellerin and Holding over, and then whispered to them under the gaze of the director's camera. These three guys covered their mouths when they spoke, and neither the audience at the scene nor the audience in the live broadcast room had any idea what they were saying. The only thing that is certain is that Wenger should be planning some special tactics specifically targeting Jiang Yuan. Before the start of this game, after seeing William starting, Wenger changed the focus of defense from the right to the entire back line. William's presence distracted Arsenal's attention from Jiang Yuan, which is why Jiang Yuan was able to run to Ibrahimovic without anyone noticing in the previous ball. The tactics before the game were the tactics before the game. Wenger found that William's condition had not fully recovered, and then he realized that he had been deceived by Mourinho's lineup. William did not play the role of attacking breakthrough today. He played the same role as Fabregas before, on the right wing. That is to attract the defensive players' attention to Jiang Yuan! With a keen sense of smell and rich experience, and by emphasizing on a few key players, Wenger easily adjusted the tactics on the field. “They are adjusting their tactics.” Brown walked up to Mourinho and whispered a reminder. The Portuguese had a serious expression and stared at Bellerin and Holding's next moves. The opposing coach has made a tactical change, and the task of our coach is to detect the opponent's actions as quickly as possible and then make appropriate responses. High-level competition is a contest between players, and of course it is also a competition between head coaches off the court. In the 35th minute of the game, the backstage data was displayed to the fans in the live broadcast room.
Chelsea: 49% Arsenal: 51% Although Chelsea had a possession rate of 10% in the past 60 minutes, in fact, the total possession rate of both teams was basically the same throughout the first half. In terms of shooting data, Chelsea found more shooting opportunities than Arsenal, but the number of goals was the same. The data shows that Chelsea's attacking tempo was very fast today, but Arsenal's defense in the penalty area was also quite good. "Come here, give it to him directly!" Pogba signaled Zouma to pass the ball to Kante. After Kante got the ball, facing Ozil's pressure, he passed the ball to Pogba. With the cooperation between the three Frenchmen, Chelsea easily broke through Arsenal's frontcourt pressure. Finally, Ake took the ball and made a breakthrough on the right. "The one with the ball now is Chelsea. We can see that Ake is quite fast, at least for a defender." "Sanchez is pressing towards the wing, Ake may not be able to get through easily, so he actively cooperates with Pogba. Chelsea wants to play a two-on-one." "The intention was too obvious. Xhaka directly stood in front of Ake's through pass position. Pogba had to make a through pass with a very tricky angle and speed, otherwise the ball would be handed over to Arsenal." "Hey, don't pass it. Chelsea is very smart. Seeing Xhaka taking up position, Ake ran back directly, ready to meet Pogba's pass with Zouma..." "Pogba chose to do it himself! Very bold, he dribbled the ball around and hit Ozil with his body. Hey, this is what we said before, Pogba is a versatile player, and his versatility combined with his boldness can often produce some unexpected results." "Pogba escapes from the pressure and dribbles the ball forward!" Out of trust in Pogba's ability to protect the ball, Jiang Yuan had already started running towards the front court before the Frenchman knocked Ozil away. However, the players in Arsenal's last line of defense cooperated very well and all moved forward together. When Pogba got rid of the defense and was about to make a long pass, Jiang Yuan happened to be in an offside position, so he hurriedly pressed down with one hand, signaling Pogba not to pass the ball. The amplitude of this action is very small, and it is unlikely for fans to see it clearly, but for Pogba, who has incredible dynamic strength, it is relatively easy to capture this action. Jiang Yuan didn't want the ball, so Pogba dribbled the ball by himself. After a while, he looked for an opportunity and made a long pass in an arc, successfully getting the ball to a position near the left baseline. Jiang Yuan, 1 on 1 duel with Holding! tatata! He touched the ball with the outside of his foot and pushed it inwards little by little, while Holding followed Jiang Yuan and retreated little by little, but he would never give up too much space. In Arsenal's 3421 formation, the two wing midfielders on the sides can move back in defense, thus forming a defense with three central defenders and two fullbacks. This is not the first change. If the conditions are right, the two central midfielders can also retreat. Take the current game situation as an example. Xhaka and Ramsey retreated into the penalty area, and Holding and Monreal, who were originally standing on the edge, both became full-backs. In the 5-defender system, Holding has enough players to protect him, so his movements will be bolder. Jiang Yuan was fully focused on dribbling the ball and noticed from the movement of Holding's knee that he was planning to intercept, so he suddenly accelerated and approached him, pretending to use his body to knock Holding away. ! When Holding saw Jiang Yuan's entire upper body rushing towards him, he quickly moved his left foot back a step, regardless of anything else. He first had to stabilize his body's center of gravity. At this moment, Jiang Yuan performed a fancy move, using his bull's tail to hit the ball towards Holding's crotch, successfully completing the crotch pass! Here comes the chance! There are many defensive players in the backcourt and the distance between individual defensive players is also relatively close, so after the ball penetrates the crotch, Jiang Yuan must immediately bypass Holding and hold the ball, and he did so. "Hey, hey!" Hazard and Ibrahimovic entered the penalty area at the same time, while William stood at the top of the arc in the middle. Chelsea's sudden pressure on the entire frontcourt made Arsenal a little nervous.
The wingers cut inside and other offensive players pressed forward together, which is a very conventional offensive mode, but the characteristic of Chelsea is that their rhythm is fast and slow, which made the Arsenal defenders a little confused. Jiang Yuan passed the ball to Hazard, who back-passed Mertesacker and passed the ball to Jiang Yuan again. Facing Ramsey's steal, Jiang Yuan did half a bicycle stroke on the spot and passed the ball back to Hazard: "Just shoot!" Jiang Yuan asked Hazard to play directly, but he overlooked one thing, that is, the Belgian had no way to turn around under Mertesacker's close defense. Hazard is not a fool. He immediately returned the ball and Jiang Yuan swung it out with his right leg. Hit the door! "This is a fake move!" Jiang Yuan successfully fooled Ramsey with his fake shot, but unfortunately he failed to fool goalkeeper Ospina, so Jiang Yuan made another shot, still with his right leg. I have to say that Ospina was too calm and didn't even take this kind of dribble. tmd! Jiang Yuan got angry and shot the ball directly into the near corner. Ospina stood there motionless. “GOOOOOOO—AAAAAAAAA—LLLLLLLL!!!” "What a perfect teamwork for Chelsea!" "It was a perfect match, and also a display of Jiang Yuan's personal abilities!" "In the 39th minute of the game, Chelsea successfully extended their goal tally to 2 goals. The current score is 2:1!" The camera was focused on Jiang Yuan. After scoring the goal, Jiang Yuan and Hazard ran side by side, almost at the same time, towards the corner flagpole. Under the gaze of the fans, Hazard slowly slowed down and came behind Jiang Yuan, side by side with Kante, and then the two ran towards Jiang Yuan's position at the same time. The two of them are racing! "Wowhoo, haha!" In the end, Hazard was one step faster. The Belgian jumped up from behind, wrapped his arms tightly around Jiang Yuan's neck, and dragged his feet in the air behind him. "Chelsea~~" Boom! Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang! Chelsea took the lead and the stands where Chelsea fans were located became lively. In sharp contrast, the stands where the Arsenal fans were were filled with silence and insults. It was clear that the away fans were not very happy with the goal. There are 5 people in total, including 2 defenders, 8 midfielders and goalkeeper Ospina. A defensive line of 8 people was directly broken by Jiang Yuan and Hazard. What does this mean? "What the fuck!" "What the fuck!" "What are you in a hurry for? Why are you in a hurry? Fuck, is it okay to use your brain to think while playing football?" Wenger cursed at the Arsenal players on the field, and asked his assistant coach to help him shout a few words so that the Gunners players on the field would know what he, the head coach, was thinking.
fuck! "Beep, beep, beep--!!!" At the end of the first half, Welbeck's two headers in the penalty area both failed, and Arsenal, who scored the first goal, became the lagging side. When walking towards the player tunnel after the game, Mourinho looked at Wenger with a smile. Although the latter was old, he still had a temper. He rushed up and pushed him directly. "What are you doing? What do you want to do?" Mourinho looked at Wenger in confusion. He never expected that this old guy would come and cause trouble for him. "What did you mean, 'expert in failure'? I'm an expert in failure?" Wenger and Mourinho started pushing and shoving each other. No doubt, Mourinho's smiling expression just now reminded Wenger of what the Portuguese said to reporters three years ago. Mourinho said Wenger is an "expert in failure", and Wenger must remember this sentence for the rest of his life. "What did I say? I just smiled. Did I say anything? Bullshit, I don't think I said anything, did I?" Mourinho put his hand on Wenger's chest, and Wenger also put his hand on Mourinho's chest. The two men were pushing each other and were about to fight when the fourth official and the linesman who heard the noise came up and struggled to pull the two men apart. Soon the referee Anthony Taylor also arrived. Taylor called Mourinho and Wenger to him and said, "Gentlemen, I need to make it clear to you that your actions just now violated the rules. Although the first half of the game is over, you should not have a physical conflict, OK? I don't want you to do this, please stay calm." After saying that, Taylor pulled a yellow card from his pocket and raised it first over Wenger's head, then over Mourinho's head. "So you just came over here to give me a yellow card?" Mourinho spread his hands to Wenger: "By the way, can you prepare one for yourself?" "Whatever you say" Wenger waved his hands and walked back to the locker room with Welbeck who had just left the field. Mourinho looked at Azpilicueta, who was ready to mediate at any time, and said with his head tilted: "This guy is so weird" …… In the visiting team's locker room, Wenger stood in the middle. The Frenchman was not in a good mood because he had just had a conflict with Mourinho. Of course, the Arsenal players sitting on the sidelines were not in a much better mood either. "I mean, I mean... well, I know Chelsea's offensive players are pretty good, but you shouldn't play like this, right? We are all Premier League teams, but what do they play? Think about what we play." Wenger adjusted his position while speaking, his eyes lingering on each player for a while: "Why did the opponent only use two players to break through our defense? Do you know why? Oh, the opponent's two players are very good, and their combined value is equivalent to half of our starting lineup, so you can't let them go?" "Come on! Is this a reason? This is not a reason!" Holding, Ramsey and others lowered their heads silently after hearing what Wenger said. Holding, who was stabbed in the crotch by the second ball, apologized directly: "Mr. Arsene, I'm sorry." Wenger was attracted by Holding's voice and faced the Gunners full-back: "Apologize? No! It seems you still don't understand why we lost the second goal. We had 7 defensive players standing behind us, but why did we still concede a goal? Because some people didn't participate in the defense at all. Do you know? Why did Hazard appear in the penalty area? Because you didn't stop him in time." "When you see Jiang break through Robben (Holding), you should observe. What should you observe? Observe all of Jiang's passing routes, and then block those possible routes one by one, instead of standing there and waiting for your teammates to clear the ball. The consequence of you continuing to wait is that you will concede a goal!" Ramsey frowned: "I thought he (Jiang Yuan) was going to shoot directly"
"Why don't you just block the near corner with your body? Why do you have to go up and steal the ball? Can you do it?" Wenger's words were a bit harsh in his red-hot state, but these are all facts. Jiang Yuan and Hazard are both good at using their bodies to protect the ball, and they were in the penalty area just now. If Lahm wanted to clear the ball from Jiang Yuan's feet by himself, there would be a high probability that he would directly give the ball to the opponent. "A team starts with 11 players. Don't play as if we only have 4 or 5 players. We have the same number of players as our opponents. We should play with that feeling. I don't want to see this situation again. If someone makes a very wrong decision in the second half, I will consider replacing him." Seeing that the players were in poor condition, Wenger put pressure on them. …… "Okay, welcome back, dear audience friends. This is the second half of the FA Cup final between Chelsea and Arsenal. In the first half, Chelsea took a 2:1 lead. Let's see what kind of performance the two teams will show in the second half..." Not long after the second half started, about 3 or 4 minutes into the game, Wenger made his first substitution. ↓ Welberck 23 ↑ Giroud 12 Wenger felt that Welbeck was not in good shape today, so he brought on substitute center forward Giroud. Compared with Welbeck, Giroud is not fast, but he has an exaggerated height of 1 meters. This height gives the Frenchman a great advantage when he is trying to score in the penalty area. This is to put pressure on Chelsea's defense! [Arsenal have made substitutions, but Mourinho has not made any moves. He has brought Terry up to play with him. Zouma is still too worrying] [Terry is not good enough. Playing against Welbeck is already stressful enough. Now that Giroud is in the team, Chelsea will definitely not be able to play Terry. Terry's current physical confrontation is not much stronger than Xiao Jiang.] [The rhythm is starting! I think Arsenal has a chance to counterattack. Are there any people in the live broadcast room who like to play happy beans? Listen to me, just make Arsenal win alone, it's a sure thing] [It’s so funny. If it weren’t for this idiot referee, Chelsea might have won 3:1 now] [You said 3:1 means 3:1, right? I don’t understand why you keep praising William. I feel like there’s no difference between him and Fabregas.] [Brother, I haven't played a game for almost half a year. Doesn't it take time to get back into the game shape? ] [There are always people who want to question me, Prince William. Don’t let me forget that at the beginning of last season, Jiang Yuan was William’s substitute.] [Come on, now Mourinho lets Jiang Yuan play as a substitute and see if the fans will go crazy] [Whether it is crazy or not is not the main point. If Jiang Yuan was on the bench, there wouldn't be so many people staying up late to watch Chelsea's game. If Jiang Yuan didn't play at this time, the national football team would have gone to bed long ago.] [Hold the trophy, please! ] The number of comments from people who knew the team suddenly increased in the second half. This was not because more people were watching the game, but because Arsenal suddenly sped up the pace of the game in the second half, making the fans very nervous. Why was Arsenal always attacking in the second half? It was thought that Arsenal would find an opportunity after a while, but unexpectedly, less than 5 minutes later, Ramsey, who had committed a crime in the first half, seized Azpilicueta's mistake in the backcourt and suddenly snatched the ball. "Ramsey, pass the ball to Xhaka in the middle, Xhaka goes into the penalty area, Chelsea's goal is very dangerous now!" "Back to Ramsey, Ramsey!" "Just shoot!" "The ball went in. Well, it was a world-class goal. It was scored by Ramsey's long-range shot. It was an undisputed world-class goal." The voice of the on-site announcer was heard in the stadium, and the name "Aaron Ramsey" resounded throughout Wembley Stadium. This is a chance for the Welsh to make amends! asshole! Mourinho looked at Ramsey running on the field with an unhappy expression.
Isn’t 2:1 good enough? He must make it 2:2. How fucked up! There was no other way. The situation was urgent and Chelsea had to speed up the substitution process. Mourinho replaced Ibrahimovic with Fabregas. Just when the players were curious about who would play the center position, Fabregas stood directly in front. Spanish center forward, Chelsea returns to last season! Fabregas kissed the back of his hand before going on the pitch, praying that the team could win the game today, but in the eyes of the fans, he was asking Diego Costa to possess him. The game continued, and in the 67th minute, Chelsea, who were in a tie, took the initiative to speed up the attack. The reason is very clear. Chelsea is not prepared to play overtime. If they fail to beat their opponent in the regular 90 minutes + stoppage time, then when the overtime starts, Chelsea will be exhausted and will be in great trouble. The Chelsea players on the field were well aware of the seriousness of this problem. Jiang Yuan was of course even more aware of it. He had dribbled past the defense so many times in the first half. If the game had to go into overtime, he would definitely not have been able to hold on. Today's game must be finished within 90 minutes! Snapped! After a through ball from Kante, Fabregas, who was pretending to be a center forward in the front, took the ball and ran backwards. His original intention was to trick the Arsenal central defender out of the defense line, but he failed. Helplessly, Fabregas had to push the ball to Hazard who came up to meet the goal. Hazard's reaction was super fast. The moment he got the ball, he jumped out like a spring, took away Monreal next to Fabregas and threatened the Arsenal penalty area. "There are two defensive players in front of Hazard, Mertesacker and Holding. The ball is in a dangerous situation, but Hazard doesn't seem to have any intention of passing the ball back..." "Oh! This is a fake!" The commentator of Tencent Sports shouted that Hazard successfully pressured the Arsenal defense with his realistic feint, then pulled the ball with the front of his foot and successfully passed the ball back to Pogba behind him, who then made a lob pass into the penalty area. Jiang Yuan seized the opportunity and suddenly made a run-up, jumping up almost at the same time as Holding. However, Jiang Yuan was running towards the goal, and his strength was more sufficient, so he reached the ball before Holding. boom! "GOOOOOO-AAAAAAAAA-LLLLLLLLLL!!!" With a powerful header, Jiang Yuan completed his hat trick in this game. However, just as Jiang Yuan was about to run outside the court to celebrate, the referee suddenly blew the whistle. "Beep!" "Hey, the referee blew the whistle for Chelsea. Why?" "Oh! Offensive foul. The referee thinks Jiang Yuan pressed down Holding, causing Holding to fail to complete the jump action normally." what the fuck? Jiang Yuan and his teammates rushed to the referee Anthony Taylor: "Why, why is this happening? I jumped to the highest point first, why is it a foul?" Taylor put his hands across his front, indicating that he would maintain his decision and Jiang Yuan's complaint was useless. "I'm a bastard!" After uttering a curse word, Taylor rushed forward and raised the yellow card over Jiang Yuan's head. The fans in the live broadcast room and Jiang Yuan were all stunned. Anthony Taylor actually knows Chinese? Damn, he came prepared!
