Chapter 577

Before the Carabao Cup final, Liverpool's goal was to win the championship trophy for two consecutive years, but facing Chelsea, which had changed its head coach, Klopp had to come up with a way to stop Sarri's passing and controlling tactics.

"People are saying that Sarri's passing and controlling tactics are not extreme enough, and sometimes they don't even look like passing and controlling tactics. It is for this reason that it makes it difficult for us to formulate defensive tactics."

"How can we formulate defensive tactics based on the distinctive characteristics of a tactical system that has no distinctive characteristics of its own?"

The biggest headache for Zabia is that Sarri's tactics do not have any distinct characteristics.

"In that case, we won't target them, we'll let them be targeted by us!"

After Klopp finished speaking, Kravitz on the side felt like he seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand!

"Boss, if I heard correctly, did you just say something bullshit?"

Klopp covered Kravitz's mouth with his backhand!

"Anyway, the overall meaning is that we use more aggressive tactics to deal with them."

"Giroud is injured and Sarri has used Hazard as a centre-forward for three games in a row."

"Hazard, Kovacic in the middle and Rudiger in the backcourt form a central axis. We have to break this central axis of Chelsea!"

"Once Chelsea's central axis is broken, they will lose the power of their lineup!"

As for how to break the defense, the three of them developed a new tactic after research and named it the driving-out running and grabbing tactic!

After the start of the League Cup final, Chelsea relied on the lineup capabilities of the frontcourt players, actively played on the ground, and used an incomplete passing and control tactics to create breakthrough opportunities for the frontcourt, and the effect was indeed quite good.

But in the 29th minute of the game, Lin Chen began to lead Liverpool's formation, showing a pressure tactic they had never shown before.

"Liverpool players don't stretch their legs, don't steal, and don't intercept when they press. Their pressure doesn't have much intensity, and Chelsea players seem to be playing very comfortably."

"Jorginho, there's clear space to pass the ball on the right!"

Jorginho quickly discovered that there was a lot of space on his right that could be used, so he quickly passed the ball to William to continue the attack.

After William received the ball, Robertson immediately rushed forward, but this time Robertson himself increased his defensive intensity during personal defense.

In order to ensure that the ball was not lost, William passed the ball back to Jorginho.

Jorginho suddenly found that there was a lot of space on his left side that he could use, so he passed the ball to Odoi again.

At this time, Rodri, who was defending on the side, immediately strengthened his personal defensive intensity, but it was only Rodri who strengthened the defensive intensity. The other players still maintained a relatively relaxed defensive intensity.

In order to ensure that the ball was not lost, Odoi passed the ball back to Jorginho again.

After Giorgio received the ball, he had tried both sides and was blocked by Lin Chen in the middle, so he passed the ball back and Chelsea continued to use the passing and controlling tactics in the backcourt.

Until this moment, there was no problem, until Jorginho passed the ball back and Rodri rushed to his side and started defending without the ball.

Lin Chen rushed towards Christensen!

Firmino and his teammates on both sides stood on the penalty area line, like catching chicks. The three of them worked together to drive the chicks to a corner little by little. Then the three of them lined up in turn, forming a four-sided defense with the wall behind the chicks, making it impossible for the chicks to fly away.

At this time, the goal behind Kepa is a natural wall, because Chelsea players will never kick the ball towards their own goal.

Firmino, Salah and Mane are the three people responsible for driving away the chickens.

At this time, the fourth person who was responsible for finally catching the chicken in this small area appeared, and that was Lin Chen.
