Chapter 106: Assists

Chelsea shrinks the defense, and the space vacated is naturally occupied by Liverpool.

The conceded goal also stimulated Liverpool. After they took possession of the ball, they launched a fierce offensive towards Chelsea's goal. They hoped to equalize the score before the end of the first half. If possible, that would be the best result.

At this time, we can see how correct Condi's decision was.

If after the goal, Chelsea continue to attack Liverpool, then Liverpool can use the space left by their offense to play a defensive counterattack.

That was too easy for Liverpool led by Ancelotti.

But now Chelsea's recovery of defense has brought a lot of trouble to Liverpool's offense.

"September 13th" They couldn't use simple and quick counterattacks to score goals, and had to spend more time and energy in order to score goals.

And the time in the first half is running out, and there are not many opportunities left for Liverpool.

The time passed by every minute and every second, and soon the first half reached the forty-fourth minute. The fourth official was standing on the sidelines, holding the stoppage time sign in his hand, and was operating on it.

He will tell everyone that there are a few minutes of stoppage time in the first half.

"The first half is almost over. Generally speaking, the first half went relatively smoothly, and there was not much time wasted, so the stoppage time in the first half should not be too much.

"Two minutes, two minutes at most." Lineker said beside him.

Modric had the ball up front and he was pressed again by the opponent.

It was a microcosm of the defense he had to deal with throughout the first half.

After returning from injury, Modric, who was not in a good state, struggled to face this kind of defense.

If there is no problem with his normal state and body, Modric would not be so embarrassed to deal with such a defense.

But after the first half, Modric is gradually adapting and looking for countermeasures.

Since the opponent wants to press close and grab the ball from me, then I should reduce the time of holding the ball, switch roles, and change from a midfield organizer to a transitional player

More often, it is to quickly transfer the football to the feet of other teammates. In many cases, what is needed here is not observation, but instinct and experience.

So this time when Modric got the ball, he passed the football directly.

Instead of passing the ball to someone else, he passed it to Su Han.

Because Chelsea is shrinking the defense, Su Han is also facing away from the goal at this time.

Seeing the football being passed towards him, Chelsea's players stepped up their pressing defense, pushing him outside and sticking close to him, preventing him from turning easily.

Everyone knows Su Han's threat, especially close to goal.

Now, with a few minutes to go in the first half, Chelsea are actually not defending Chelsea's offense, but defending Sophie.

So just contain Su Han.

Before Su Han could catch the ball, he felt the pressure from behind.

It would be very difficult to turn around in this situation, and it would also take time. Even if you turned around, you would still face Chelsea's impregnable walls, so what's the point?

Although the possession is on his side, he can pass the football and reorganize the attack.

But that was when the game time was quite rich, and now the first half is coming to an end, how can there be time to deal with Chelsea slowly?

So there must be another way to break the deadlock.

He had to make a decision during the time the football was rolling towards him.

Is there any way to threaten Chelsea's goal by stopping the ball and then turning around, or passing the football directly?

In charge of standing behind Su Han is the Chelsea captain, led by full-back John Terry. …

And beside Su Han, there is Perisic, who defends Su Han from another angle.

As long as Su Han stops the football, he will rush forward and surround Su Han, preventing him from turning around and threatening the goal

As long as he is forced to pass the football back, the defense will be successful.

Time will fly by in Liverpool's meaningless back and forth, reaching the end of the first half.

Perisic was staring at Su Han [to see exactly how he would handle the ball.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure wearing a black away Liverpool jersey. He flashed past the corner of his field of vision.

Perisic noticed this, and he couldn't help casting his gaze there.

Because he found that figure was advancing forward, and the direction of advancing was behind John Terry! 0.6

He saw the figure clearly, Sterling...

He's driving into the restricted area!

That's a gap...

Perisic suddenly turned his gaze back to Su Han.

He happened to see Su Han lift his right foot, but this action is not like stopping the ball, because the foot is raised a bit high......

Then, scoring almost in the blink of an eye, Su Han raised his right foot and slammed down, and his heel knocked the rolling football back!

He passed the ball!

Or heel pass!

The football slipped between the legs of an unsuspecting John Terry!

Go straight behind the line of defense!.
