Chapter 983 Inexperience needs to be encouraged
In terms of defense, whether it was Southampton or Chelsea in the first round, there were indeed a lot of problems.
Southampton is because Araujo is still adapting, but this is not a problem with his strength. Adaptation, continuous adaptation, will always be good.
As for Chelsea, it is a matter of tactics. The two central defenders Christensen and Zouma are the kind of central defenders who are outstanding and brave in frontal confrontation, but not very stable. They also send two technical and organizational players in the midfield. Does the offense continue to penetrate.
In this game, Araujo was in a good state, and he had to adapt at the beginning. It doesn't mean that every game will be played badly. After Chelsea added a Kanter in the midfield, they protected the front very well. Without being directly impacted, Chelsea's defense naturally looks quite good.
However, this kind of entanglement will definitely not last forever, and one party will gradually gain the upper hand.
Southampton was entangled and gradually gained the upper hand.
Although it is difficult for Southampton to play the ball smoothly because of Kanter, and Jorginho and Kovacic are not the kind of players who cannot run to help intercept. The vision and ability to block positions are still quite good. Under their interception, Southampton's midfield ball possession tactics have actually been greatly affected.
However, Southampton can play the game a little faster-the three strikers kept running and retreating to support, which quickly made Southampton's offense more streamlined.
Du Yue almost created a goal with a retreat. He retreated to get the ball and then sent a beautiful direct pass. Valverde, who advanced forward, shook off the opponent's defender. After successfully countering offside, he passed the ball to the goal. Before, Christensen, who retreated, flew to clear the ball.
This clearance is quite dangerous. If you slow down and fail to touch the ball, then Alvarez and Vinicius will definitely teach Kepa to be a man...
However, after this opportunity was missed, Southampton quickly created another opportunity. Midfielder Phillips and Valverde jointly grabbed the ball at Kovacic's feet. De Bruyne took the ball and sent a pick pass. Du Yue stepped forward and succeeded in anti-offside!
This was a wonderful passing and running cooperation. Chelsea's two central defenders turned around quickly, but they were also left behind by Du Yue in an instant!
Of course, this is due to Du Yue's extremely fast starting speed, and there are also factors in De Bruyne's exquisite timing of picking a pass!
Faced with such an offense that could be selected as the best match of the month, Kepa was still a little helpless even though he attacked in time.
Du Yue approached Kepa with the ball, and then kicked and shot immediately!
He didn't make fake moves, but not doing fake moves at this time has the same effect as making fake moves.
The ball flew out quickly, and Kepa fell to the ground and took a step back. He could only watch the ball fly past him, and then flew into the goal!
Southampton fans immediately let out a huge cheer.
Du Yue opened his arms and started to fly in the arena. His teammates who were chasing after him chased after him one after another and started to celebrate wildly together.
It is of course a good thing to be the first to score a goal in a stalemate.
And Du Yue used such a goal to prove that he is the most reliable at the critical moment when facing a strong enemy.
The morale of Chelsea was a bit depressed. Lampard stood up and began to cheer up the morale on the field, so that the players rushed out to attack more. When they were behind, of course, they had to show their offensive level. OK.
Chelsea have a group of good players - there is no doubt that the players they started have no shortcomings, all of them are quite good, although some players are relatively young, but the talent is there.
Young players are naturally more energetic, so they like Lampard's way of commanding.
So after the re-kick-off, they quickly launched a fierce attack.
Jorginho is responsible for organizing the offense. Although Kovacic is also an excellent midfielder, he is a newcomer after all. Jorginho has been here for a year. His organizational skills are very good, so it is natural became the core of the organization.
After the re-kick-off, he quickly organized an attack. In the midfielder Jorginho, he made a beautiful pass in the middle. Pedro, who was replaced in the middle, received the ball, and then moved to the left. Giroud followed up non-stop. The ball is shot directly and the ball misses the far post.
Two minutes later, Chelsea's attack started again. Jorginho sent a beautiful over-the-top ball, and Giroud who went forward received the ball. With Giroud entangled, in terms of confrontation, Giroud is not afraid, but in a close confrontation like Araujo, it is difficult for him to make any more moves. After barely controlling the ball, he passed the ball to the responder Pulisic, the American took a direct shot, but was blocked by De Ligt, who was filling the position.
Southampton's two young central defenders have indeed shown good form.
And Chelsea's crazy offense made them start to withstand more tests.
Chelsea's next attack soon came back again, Kovacic sent a through pass from the midfielder, the ball went through the Southampton defense, and Pedro went forward and almost had a one-shot, but this time Rudiger returned to the defense. Quite fast, he used his speed and body to block Pedro, and then got the ball first!
Pedro, who looked very embarrassed in this attack, quickly created a good opportunity. After receiving the ball, he passed the ball to Giroud. Giroud took the ball with his back and passed the ball back. Pedro followed up. After the ball, the ball was taken to the left side of the penalty area, and then suddenly kicked and shot!
Araujo failed to complete the block in time when he kicked the goal from such a small angle. The next moment the ball hit the crossbar heavily and bounced back to the penalty area. De Ligt immediately cleared the siege with his big foot.
"It's still inexperienced. He didn't expect that such a top attacker would be able to complete the offense under any circumstances." Benelli sighed.
"Yeah, but it's just lack of experience, no big problem." Ji Ya smiled slightly.
To use young central defenders, of course, one has to endure their inexperience. As long as it is not a matter of principle or attitude, then they should be encouraged.
Sure enough, Giroud soon had a beautiful barb shot in the penalty area. Araujo quickly completed the interference this time, and finally Giroud's barb missed the far post.
"Nice job, keep it up!"
Ji Ya stood up and yelled twice into the arena.
For young players, such encouragement is of course necessary, and other players will encourage him on the court.
Under such circumstances, if he does not grow fast, then there is a problem.
