Chapter 474 Now is the opportunity!
"This is the first goal in the Champions League final and also the eleventh goal scored by Torres personally in the Champions League this season. He will undoubtedly become the best scorer in the Champions League. The second place is Ronaldo, who plays for Manchester United. The Portuguese scored only 7 goals, and he no longer has the chance to score another goal!"
"Eleven goals interpret Torres' perfect performance in the Champions League and also confirms the excellence of Manchester City's entire team, because Torres's goal is by no means a single person, just like the goal just now, Silva is also one of the heroes."
"Don't forget that Manchester City has a league top scorer sitting on the bench!"
"Maybe only Manchester City can be so luxurious that they can put the league's top scorer on the bench..."
British BB Sports TV commentator Lai John expressed the voice of many people.
Darren Bent is the top scorer in the Premier League, with 6 more goals in the league than Ronaldo, the second-place team, but in the Champions League final, Darren Bent sat on the bench.
Thinking of this, Manchester City is a little too luxurious.
But Darren Bent himself seemed to feel nothing. When Torres scored, he also celebrated excitedly with other teammates.
Darren Bent must have some complaints about not being able to be in the Champions League final.
However, if the coach does this, he is also doing it for victory. Moreover, he has played a lot this season and is valued no less than Torres, so he doesn't have much thoughts.
The Champions League final is just a game. How can I compare the performance of the previous season? How can I compare the team's final victory?
As long as the team can win this game, he will also win a Champions League medal. What else is there to be dissatisfied with!
The celebration of the goal in the coach's seat has been completed.
The substitutes have returned to their seats, but they still have excitement on their faces, and are constantly talking about goals and games.
Diamares sat next to Wan Sheng. He looked at the scoreboard and sighed, "Wan Sheng, if you told me a few years ago that we would lead the team together in the Champions League final, I must think you are crazy!"
Wansheng listened.
"It seems like a dream these years, especially after coming to Manchester City, I was considering whether to stay in Derby County. I am so glad I came out from there!"
"The Champions League final! And we are still ahead, I can't believe it!"
Wan Sheng laughed, "You should have been prepared for a long time. We said at the beginning of the season that we must strive for all the championships, and the Champions League is naturally not an exception!"
"You said that." Diamares rolled his eyes, "But isn't that a goal? A goal may not be achieved. I just think you are trying to inspire the morale of the team."
"Ha ha."
Wan Sheng laughed and said, "Gal, you don't know me yet, I have always done it."
Diamares rolled his eyes, "Don't put your way of dealing with reporters on me."
"But I did, didn't I?"
Diamares was about to say something, but Wan Sheng quickly added, "We did it."
Diamares immediately laughed.
Manchester City fans in the audience were still celebrating. These voices made Chelsea feel very annoying. They felt depressed enough to concede a goal, but they still had to withstand the 'destroy' of Manchester City fans' voices.
On the Chelsea coach's bench, head coach Grant had a cold face.
Manchester City's leading situation really made him unable to show a steady expression. The game was already so passive. He was still thinking about a way to change the situation, but the opponent took the opportunity to complete the goal.
"asshole!"
Grant was even more worried about the game situation.
What the Israelites didn't know was that Abramovich, who was sitting next to the rostrum in a VIP room on the stadium, looked much colder than him.
Some fans kept looking here just now, but seeing Abramovich's performance, many people subconsciously turned their heads... It was really a bit scary.
The Russian ‘oligarch’ became angry, which was really scary.
Abramovich was already very dissatisfied with the team's performance, but unexpectedly, Manchester City scored a goal soon.
If you play so passively in the game, you will still have a chance to win if you fall behind one goal?
Like Chelsea fans, Abramovich's confidence in winning has also dropped a lot, and his face has become colder.
He had already thought about it.
If he loses the game, the first thing he has to do is to let the incompetent Israel get out.
His Chelsea is not so mean!
Manchester City has returned to its half after the celebration.
The two teams stood in place and the game started again.
Chelsea did not have a low morale when they were one goal behind. After all, this is the Champions League final. Every player knows that they must fight until the last minute. They have to seize it as long as there is a chance. What's more, they are just one goal behind. If they work hard, they will likely catch it.
So after the game started again, Chelsea's offensive became stronger, and they hoped to equalize the score as soon as possible.
This is normal, and the backward parties often do this.
Chelsea is also very unwilling to accept it.
"Chelsea has not beat Manchester City in three seasons." This is not only a fact, but has also been cited by many media to prove that Chelsea is not good at playing Manchester City.
But Chelsea players are very unwilling to give up. They don’t think their team is worse than Manchester City. Moreover, the current game is in the Champions League, not the league, and they hope to defeat Manchester City in the Champions League.
The shouts of fans in the audience also put enough pressure on Chelsea.
Before Manchester City scored a goal, there was more support for Chelsea on the spot, because Chelsea is Abramovich's team, and most Russian fans support "his own" Chelsea. Before the game, the media said that "Moscow is Chelsea's home court" is not an exaggeration.
But it's different after Manchester City scored.
Russian fans who were originally close to Chelsea because of Abramovich, also began to support Manchester City, who played more beautifully and scored goals, so there were fewer support for Chelsea.
Chelsea players were all angry and wanted to show something to prove something.
Chelsea's offensive is indeed very strong, but unfortunately, Manchester City's lineup is very conservative.
Manchester City's offense is good, but that is only on the tactical level. In fact, Wan Sheng is still very conservative in the finals. Lengbery, Ivan Kreu, Brummer, Morris and Silva on the side, all five midfielders in Manchester City are players with good defense. Except for Torres, who is not good at defense, everyone else in the team participated in the defense.
When Manchester City retreats to defend, they can definitely play a considerable ability. Chelsea's offense is always hindered, and it is difficult for them to break through Manchester City's defense line. When the football reaches Manchester City's feet, the rhythm just now comes back... Manchester City began to keep turning their feet down and constantly pass and cooperate, and Chelsea had to shrink the defense line to ensure the safety of the goal.
At this time, Manchester City played the characteristics of the team again - young and good at playing in the wind.
There are too many young players in Manchester City, and young teams are often good at playing down the wind. This is not only reflected in the offense, but also in the stability of the players' mentality after leading.
When Manchester City took the lead, the players' mental pressure was much less, and they started to play safely according to the arrangement.
Everyone is very steady and they know what to do after leading.
Hold the ball, stabilize the defense line, don’t rush to go up and find opportunities, hold your opponent down, and tentatively pass the opportunity to move forward... Wan Sheng has been talked about many times.
Manchester City did the same.
They have to use a stable defense line, use ball control, and drag their opponents into the swamp, and the opponents will find that the more they struggle, the deeper they fall. When they become honest, the victory will belong to the team.
When Manchester City keeps controlling the ball, Chelsea naturally has to step forward and press, and they have to grab the ball before they can attack.
However, Chelsea has been doing the "pressure" thing since the first minute of the game, and until now, they still do it.
This is not a big problem for Manchester City.
They have too rich experience in the face of "pressing". All they need to do is to keep running, passing, running, and passing, so that the opponent's pressing players can easily follow behind and eat dust.
This is good for Manchester City.
Often, people who passively follow will consume more physical energy and energy, because they need to judge how to follow, while people who take the initiative to consume less physical energy.
The biggest blow to Chelsea was Manchester City's dazzling cooperation.
It is common for Manchester City to play exciting cooperation when taking possession. They only need to speed up the passing speed and pass one foot and then one foot to make it easy to play exciting. This excites the fans on the scene, and it also has a huge blow to the morale of the opponent.
Faced with Manchester City's dazzling pass, Chelsea players didn't know how to grab the ball.
The game has been going on like this.
Chelsea also got the ball a few times in the middle, but they were too eager to tie the score. Every time the ball hit the frontcourt, they would shoot a long shot.
Soon Chelsea's shots exceeded Manchester City, but the score was still 1-0, and Manchester City was still the leading side.
Chelsea has been desperate to tie the score.
Drogba and Anelka both stood in the front and didn't even come back.
Lampard, who had just completed a long shot, also crossed the center line.
Marklele and Barack are all fighting around the center line, trying to intercept Manchester City's pass.
Among the several players in the frontcourt were in front, and they also pulled Chelsea's formation very forward. Those who don't know thought it was Chelsea's attacking, but in fact, the football was firmly controlled at Manchester City's feet.
As time passes little by little, the intermission is getting closer and closer, and this kind of scenario occurs more and more times.
Wan Sheng couldn't help but curl up.
Chelsea is really a little anxious. Have they forgotten that Manchester City is the best at fast attack?
The game situation is actually not very beneficial to Manchester City, because the advantage of leading with one goal is not great. If you have the opportunity to score another goal, it is the most beneficial to the team.
Now is the opportunity.
Chelsea's defense is very empty. Wan Sheng believes that players such as Morris, Silva on the court will see clearly... (To be continued.)
