Chapter 579
You put a lot of thought into opening your arms, and confidently prepare to dive left or right, exerting all your energy just to take care of both sides at the same time, but in the end, you miss the ball and all your carefully constructed save preparations are ruined?
This is not the way to play, right?!
Kepa thought about it and felt that the responsibility was not his, so he stood up and began to instruct his teammates.
"This isn't the way defense should be done!"
"Make him offside!"
"Keep an eye on him!"
Coach Kai is online!
"The fake head coach Sarri is just a puppet of my Kepa."
"Liverpool have forced Chelsea to contradict themselves. I feel like Chelsea players no longer believe in Sarri's style of play."
"It's very difficult to find a breakthrough with this type of pressing because it's not done by one person, and it's not done by the team's possession of the ball, but as long as you have the ball, they can complete this pressing tactic."
"I'm kind of looking forward to the next game between Liverpool and Manchester City. Can Manchester City cope with this new style of pressure from Liverpool?"
There are not many teams in Europe that play a passing and controlling style of play, and even fewer in the Premier League. Manchester City and Chelsea are both considered passing and controlling teams, but Chelsea is clearly unable to cope with Liverpool's new style of pressure now.
After the resumption of the Carabao Cup final, Chelsea still couldn't cope with Liverpool's pressure and the game entered halftime amid complaints from Chelsea fans.
"The 2018-2019 League Cup final entered halftime. I don't know what Liverpool's new pressing tactics are called. Maybe we can interview Klopp later."
"But at least we can see that this is a natural counter to the ball-control style of play."
"Not just Sarri, I think all teams that like to play possession-based tactics will be restrained by this kind of pressing tactics."
Scholes had a hunch that the world of passing and controlling tactics might be ended by Liverpool!
Start from this moment, start from this League Cup final!
Klopp was pleased with the effect of the press.
“This is what I’ve seen…”
Before he could finish, the players had already answered, saying in unison: "The best first half we've ever played!"
Zabia smiled.
"Okay, okay, since you all understand, I won't say any more."
"Keep making Chelsea spend money on themselves in the second half!"
"We're going to win the League Cup!"
A quarter of an hour later.
"Chelsea is still trapped."
"I'm a little sleepy already."
"Are they going to just mess around like this?"
"Liverpool played too aggressively!"
Gullit made four consecutive complaints to express his dissatisfaction with Chelsea.
"Sarri probably hasn't found a way to resist the new style of pressing."
"Chelsea are struggling."
Lin Chen looked at the struggling Chelsea. He knew that the more a person struggled in trouble, the deeper they would fall into it.
Once Chelsea dig themselves deeper, Liverpool's chance will surely come again.
The 60th minute of the game!
"Chelsea might as well give up possession of the ball. If Conte was still there, they might not be so embarrassed against Liverpool."
Liverpool fans began singing to Chelsea's new coach Sarri. This song is a traditional mocking song in the history of English football, specifically used to mock coaches with poor records.
"You'll be out of class tomorrow!"
"You have get out of class the day after tomorrow too!"
"Sarri is going home for dinner because he's off tonight!"
……
Sarri: "Angry! Shaking! Cold!"
I secretly chewed two sticks of tobacco to calm myself down.
The ridicule from Liverpool fans also affected the mentality of Chelsea players.
Once the mentality of Chelsea players is affected, it will affect Lin Chen's mentality, because the worse the mentality of Chelsea players, the better Lin Chen's mentality will be!
The 69th minute of the game!
Lin Chen was controlling the ball in the backcourt when he suddenly saw a gap in Chelsea's backcourt and kicked the ball hurriedly!
The moment Lin Chen swung his leg, the Liverpool players understood what tactics he was going to use, which was exactly the stretching tactic that Klopp had originally studied!
Then Lin Chen looked at Mane on the left. He wanted to pass the ball to Mane, and at the same time Mane had already started!
Lin Chen passed the ball immediately!
The beautiful long pass followed the air route, took the most punctual flight, and landed steadily at the airport behind Chelsea!
Navigator Firmino received the ball steadily, faced Kepa with a fierce shot, and lowered the landing gear of the plane steadily!
The plane landed accurately, achieving a perfect end to the flight!
"Ding Dong, congratulations to Liverpool for landing on time for the League Cup final flight. Liverpool scored another goal!"
"Lin once again used his unique passing skill, pretending to pass to the left but actually passing to the middle!"
Gullit thought that Lin Chen was trying to deceive Chelsea's defenders until the live broadcast replayed the video. Everyone could clearly see that Lin Chen just missed the target with his instep when he made a long pass.
Lin Chen in the live broadcast had an awkward yet elegant smile on his face.
Lin Chen really wanted to pretend that he was going to pass the ball to Firmino, but he couldn't do it. He couldn't deceive himself who was so upright and handsome.
Gullit, who was just about to praise Lin Chen for his accurate passing, swallowed back his prepared words.
He was thinking about how to save the situation in a way that was not awkward, polite, elegant and graceful.
"Well, how should I put it?"
"If it was any other player, it would have been a bad kick or a mistake, but if it was Lin, I think he must have had his reasons for doing so!"
Gullit feels that he seems to be a bit hypocritical, but not too hypocritical.
Scholes and Ashley Cole on the side immediately nodded in agreement.
These three hypocritical people successfully changed the tone of the public in the live broadcast room.
"That's right, if it was Lin Chen, he must have his own reasons for doing this!"
"It's understandable. Sometimes the master's ideas are beyond our imagination. Lin must have wanted to pass the ball by faking a turnover!"
"This tactic of using one's own mistakes to provide assists for teammates is really great!"
"As expected of Lin, he can always turn mistakes into miracles and turn decay into goals!"
