Chapter 247 Red Forest Entanglement

The confrontation between the coaches of the two sides on the sidelines became the most discussed topic next. The original situation was repeatedly replayed in the TV broadcast, and the whole process of the incident was given from different angles and different camera positions to satisfy the curiosity of the audience.
The game is still going on, but the protagonists have changed from the star players on the field to the two head coaches, Tony Twain and Jose Mourinho.
"The head coach stole the limelight from the players. We can say that as long as Mourinho and Twain are in the game, they are the focus of everyone's attention. This kind of game is really good, we can enjoy beautiful goals, I can also see the passionate and bloody duel between the two head coaches... Hahahaha!"
Amid the loud laughter of the commentator, the first half ended, and Nottingham Forest temporarily tied Chelsea 1:1.If one considers the strength of the two teams, this score can satisfy Nottingham Forest, who are playing at home, but considering the number of players on both sides and the scene of the first half, Twain doesn't feel that much at all. What a satisfaction.

The ball was lost at the last minute of the first half. The impact of this blow on the Forest players can be seen from their breathing after sitting down, heavy and short.

Tang En stood in the locker room, watching the players silently changing their clean jerseys.

"I remember a few days before the game I was emphasizing to you what kind of team Chelsea is now. I said that if we lead, we must pay attention to their counterattack. Now my words have been confirmed and we have been defeated. Chelsea, who played away with one less man, equalized the score. It seems that the goal was lost because Wood did not guard Drogba, or because Piqué was injured and left the field, leaving us with one less man to mark Drogba, but Actually?" Dunn spread his hands, "We were under pressure from them for 25 minutes before we lost the ball! There is no way! If they were lucky enough to score anytime during these 25 minutes, then it would definitely not be a tie now." ...We are completely restricted by them, right? Attack, we can't attack. Defend, defend is difficult."

The players didn't speak, and obviously they thought so too.Chelsea are really strong, I only know this after talking to them directly, no wonder they can always keep the pressure on the leader Arsenal in the league.

"Okay!" Tang En suddenly raised his voice, "Stop bowing your head! Let's look at this issue from another angle. Conceding goals at the end of the first half is not necessarily a bad thing. At least we have more Time to make targeted adjustments, and their rhythm was interrupted by a 15-minute intermission. It was just a draw. Do you think our goal in the first half was luck? Ferreira was sent off We are also lucky? Chelsea is not an invincible battleship, they also have many weaknesses. Frank, why did the second half of the first half seem to be missing?"

He called Ribery's name.

"I...uh, I'm back to defend..." Compared with just coming to Nottingham, Franck Ribery's English has improved rapidly, no matter whether it is listening or speaking, there is no big problem.

"Okay, the second half you remember: continue to play the first half of the first half. Our offense is mainly wide, if you and Ashley Young are missing, how do we play on the counter? Listen, you two, In the second half, we played from the wing like this..." Tang En turned around and began to draw on the tactical board, "Your task is not to pass from outside the penalty area, but to get the ball and try to cut inside..." He was in the penalty area Two oblique arrows cutting into the penalty area are drawn on the two corners of the ball. "Push Chelsea's defenders into the box, hold the ball as much as you can, try to break through them after you're in the box! Just play boldly in the box, watch out for your opponents."

Ribery and Ashley Young nodded at the same time.

Tang En turned around and looked at George Wood again: "George, would you mind telling me about your one-on-one experience with Drogba?"

Wood looked at Tang En, and then spit out a sentence: "He is very strong."

"Of course, 400 million pounds is not just talk." Tang En shrugged, "Your task in the second half is the same as before. You and Piqué defend Drogba. Don't give him too many chances. If he turns his back Take the ball, don't give him room to turn around, be careful with his long shots. If he passes back, leave him alone, let him pass, but never let him face the goal after taking the ball. Don't underestimate this rough black Big man, do you understand what I said?"

Wood nodded.

After assigning personal tasks, Tang En began to talk about the team tactics: "Guys, you have all seen it. Chelsea is very aggressive in our backcourt. This is the key to their continuous attack. So in the second half, I ask you to The ball is more concise. The ball needs to be fast, the running speed is fast, and the passing speed is fast! Don't give Chelsea the opportunity to steal the ball from our feet. Always let the football turn around in our second half, It's very dangerous. If you can't find a suitable catcher for a while, just drive the ball to the front, see? Crouch is so tall, if he shaves his hair, it's almost A lighthouse that points the way for you in the mist!"

Tang En patted Crouch on the shoulder vigorously, and his teammates all laughed.

"Well, if we look at the rankings, our current results are not too bad. Chelsea is second, and we are only No.13, which is eleven places behind. If we treat ourselves as ordinary newly promoted horses, this result is not too bad. There are many teams who have already made up their minds to lose less and win when they meet strong teams. But we can't do this, why? Because we are different from them, we are not ordinary newly promoted. This season our The goal is not a mere relegation, we have a bigger pursuit. This game is our home game, so there is no reason to be satisfied with a draw. If we don’t win the game, I guarantee that everyone will not have a holiday the next day Yes. From this game on, I want the guys to understand that if we can win, then I will never accept a draw. If it's a game we can't win, I will never accept a loss!"

Tang sat alone in his seat. It was halftime, and most of the fans took advantage of this time to go outside to drink some beer and eat something to replenish their energy.He wasn't interested in these, because in the first half he didn't scream like those around him, clapping his hands and stomping his feet, his physical exertion was almost zero, and his throat didn't hurt.

Nottingham is a city with a lot of international students, so it is not uncommon to see yellow-skinned, black-haired oriental fans here, and no one pays more attention to the coach of the Forest youth team.

Tang En is the head coach of the team, and he can allocate a certain share of tickets before each home game. He will leave one for Tang every time, regardless of whether he goes to watch or not.Most of the time, Tang chooses to watch at home, and at the same time, he can record the video, with clear playback and slow playback, which can help him analyze the game.

But today, when it was raining, he chose to watch the game live.Towards the end of the first half, he saw a wonderful one-on-one between the two managers.Such a scene, if he is replaced as the head coach of the Forest team, is absolutely impossible.More than once, he thought about how he would do if he was the head coach of this team.

There are too many differences between him and Twain. Twain hopes to be his assistant and manage the team with him, but he is thinking about whether his personality can match well with such a flamboyant person.Although everyone lives together, because one coaches the first team and the other coaches the youth team, they are completely unfamiliar with their work.

Tang En always said that they would definitely be able to cooperate well, just because they always get together at night to study various videos?Don always felt that he didn't know that person at all, and that the actions he sometimes made were completely incredible.For example, when he confronted Mourinho just now, didn't he worry that this would anger Chelsea instead?You know, Chelsea is ranked second, a strong team that has not lost a game after the first six rounds of the league!
The rain is still falling, and there are gradually more people around. The second half of the game is about to start.

Dunn didn't know what Mourinho said to his players during the halftime break. The Chelsea players seemed to be full of fighting spirit, and they didn't feel that the future was bleak because of one less person.But he was unfazed, as his players were equally motivated and undeterred by a ten-man equalizer.

Both teams are in a good state of mind, what about the two head coaches?

Naturally, the fighting spirit is also strong.

From pre-match fighting to mid-match, both sides naturally don't want to lose to each other, otherwise... losing three points is not a big deal, but losing face is a big deal!
Your boss is rich, you have won the European championship, and you have received strong players, will I be afraid of you?

No matter how rich the owner is, no matter how many championships he has won, and no matter how famous the players are, nothing is useless in the game, the score speaks for itself!
In the second half, we will fight again!

※ ※ ※

In the second half, Chelsea did not change much tactically compared with the second half of the first half. They strengthened the pressing in the frontcourt, then created chaos for the Forest team, and then took advantage of their mistakes.

In the first half, Chelsea managed to equalize the score by this method. Mourinho believes that the inexperienced Forest team will be at a loss when faced with such an oppressive defense like waves, and then there will be many things that are impossible in normal times. mistakes.But Mourinho is smart, and Twain is not a fool. Since Chelsea scored the equalizer with this trick in the first half, how could he not guard against it?

The Forest team began to consciously play long passes in the offense to Crouch in front.And if the opponent's pressure is not too fierce, turn the ball to the wing and hand it over to Ribery or Ashley Young, and they will decide the details of the attack.And what about the Forest's defense?Everyone tried to reduce the time of possession of the ball as much as possible. The defenders even only need to kick the ball forward with their big feet, without considering whether Crouch can catch it.

Because the Forest players were very resolute in implementing this tactic, after 10 minutes, Chelsea found that their non-stop running and intercepting in the frontcourt had little effect.Every time I saw a Forest team player not far in front of me get the ball and rushed over, but the opponent kicked the ball behind them without hesitation...

This is really irritating to watch. Although Chelsea's pressing tactics have been contained, but at the same time, Forest's offense is too simple and rough, with a low success rate.The game fell into a stalemate, neither side had a good chance, they just kept making mistakes and making mistakes.
