Chapter 1220: Chapter 1220
Huang Kaiwen clapped on the bench.
"Kevin, is there a problem with the tactics."
Huang Kaiwen nodded and said, "To guard Kaka, you have to hold your position and have someone to help out, it’s easy for one player to be bypassed by high-speed direction changes. There are too few people arranged in the back today."
Ashley Cole, Ramos, and Belletti rushed forward, Ballack and Deco played central midfield instead of defensive midfield; no wonder we get hit by counter-attacks.
The tactics today are a bit retro, like early football tactics.
I don’t know if it’s arranged by Faria or Boas, Mourinho shouldn’t use such tactics.
Playing , we’re going to be ripped apart by Milan?
Huang Kaiwen rushed to the sideline, waving his hands, shouting: "Sergio, Ashley, come back and play with four defenders, don’t press too high, stabilize first. We’re not in a rush to attack now, a draw isn’t a problem, wait till I get on!"
Ashley Cole turned to Terry and asked: "Who should we listen to?"
"Nonsense, listen to Kevin!"
Terry said impatiently.
Ashley Cole shrank his neck.
Just now, he pressed too high, causing Terry and Carvalho to be broken through one by one.
Faria glanced at the players’ reactions on the field, then looked at Huang Kaiwen beside him and quickly repeated Huang Kaiwen’s words: "Come back, change formation!"
Actually, even without him shouting, the players would have changed the formation.
Chelsea slowly organized after the restart, Deco was clearly still out of form today.
His form at the end of the season dropped sharply, and he actually passed the ball directly to Kaka.
Fortunately, Kaka didn’t react, and Ramos rushed up to clear the ball out of bounds.
Gattuso quickly threw in the ball, Ibrahimovic trapped it with his chest, but his move was too obvious as he turned and Terry poked the ball away from behind.
Ramos received the ball and immediately sent a long ball forward.
It wasn’t very accurate, but Ashley Cole managed to take the ball because Gattuso wasn’t in his position.
Cole took the ball and immediately sent a lob into the box.
Hummels out-headed Huntelaar at the top of the arc, but under Huntelaar’s influence, he headed it towards the small box.
Drogba seized the opportunity for a side volley, and Maldini rushed up to clear.
At the moment Maldini headed the ball away, Drogba’s foot also kicked Maldini’s head.
Maldini fell to the ground, and players from both sides quickly rushed over.
The referee Tom Henning Ovrebo blew his whistle, pulled out a red card and showed it to Drogba.
The unexpected change stunned the players from both sides.
Chelsea players promptly went up to explain.
Drogba, hands spread helplessly, followed the referee, explaining.
Henning pointed to the sideline decisively and said: "Out."
Seeing Chelsea players coming over, he turned and ran towards midfield.
Unexpectedly, Ballack chased after him, growling for an explanation.
Henning’s stamina couldn’t match Ballack’s, and he fell on the grass during his run.
Huang Kaiwen directly took off his training gear, and started warming up on the sidelines.
Seeing this, Terry rushed forward and scolded: "Don’t mess with him. Otherwise, we’ll be short when Kevin gets on. Damn it, control yourselves, guys."
Ballack turned to the sideline, seeing Huang Kaiwen warming up, he said nothing.
Drogba looked disappointed as he walked to the sidelines, ignored Faria, and went directly to Huang Kaiwen saying: "Kevin, I’m sorry."
Huang Kaiwen patted his shoulder, then pushed him and said: "Go and take a shower. It’s not your fault; you were the first to move."
"Don’t worry, I don’t want to miss this year’s final, even if the opponent is Milan."
Huang Kaiwen said with a smile.
Drogba nodded heavily and walked into the players’ tunnel.
Huang Kaiwen’s words inexplicably reassured him.
He even forgot that if they reached the final, he’d still be suspended for additional bans.
"Kevin, who are we swapping?"
After Drogba left, Faria finally came over, rubbing his hands and asking.
"Yes, yes, I also feel Deco is playing poorly. His performance today is really too bad, I was just thinking about subbing him off. I’ll go tell the fourth official."
Faria quickly ran over.
The fourth official raised the substitution board, number 10 for number 20.
Being replaced this early, Deco wasn’t very happy.
But he still squeezed out a smile and high-fived Huang Kaiwen before heading to the bench.
Faria came over, Deco ignored him.
Faria muttered: "Kevin wanted to swap you, it wasn’t me."
Huang Kaiwen pretended not to hear, bent down, touched the grass and rushed onto the field. Find the newest release on novel·fire.net
"How are we playing, Kevin?"
Huntelaar immediately came over to ask.
Chelsea players also gathered around.
Huang Kaiwen glanced at the players on the field, hand on hip, waving his hand and said: "Belletti to right-back, Ashley back to left, Joe you go right-wing, Ricardo left-wing, and Misha and I double central midfielders, that’s it."
"Alright, let’s do this!"
Terry clapped his hands and said: "Cheer up, because of the away goal, we’re one foot out. Damn it, focus!"
"Come on, stretch out a hand, count to three and shout victory."
Huang Kaiwen waved his hand, actively stretching out his left hand.
