Xiao Qing is indeed struggling, and Arsenal's current situation is not very good either. Unable to open up the situation on the offensive end, Arsenal lost their rhythm of the game. Their performance was temporarily sluggish under the defensive pressure of Chelsea's strong midfield and backfield. And what's even more terrible at this time is that Chelsea showed confidence. They also performed excellent defensive counterattacks during the game. Arsenal's offense hit Chelsea's defense time and time again. When Arsenal's offense was terminated, it also meant that Chelsea had great confidence in being able to launch a threatening counterattack. They were still confident to attack. Arsenal's defense. In the 11th minute of the game; Chelsea's right sideline ball was given to the goal. Terry fought for the top. There was a scuffle in the penalty area. Cahill almost scored. In the 19th minute, Ivanovic passed the ball from the right sideline to the goal. There was a scuffle between the two sides, and Mata's diagonal shot from outside the penalty area missed. The current two teams are like this. Many times there is a chaotic scramble in the midfield, and then there is also a chaotic scramble in their respective frontcourts. The rhythm of the current game cannot be improved at all. Fierce competition is the main method of the current game. Both teams are stumbling now, and it is indeed difficult for them to provide more tactical cooperation at this time. This way of playing may be more beneficial to Chelsea, because Arsenal cannot play their tactical coordination, they cannot play sharp and smooth ground coordination, so this also means that Arsenal is at a tactical disadvantage. Regardless of whether Chelsea is more suitable for melee, one thing is certain that this is not the way Arsenal should play. Xiao Qing doesn¡¯t care about this at all. For him, although the pressure is not small now, performing well under pressure is what an outstanding player should have. Xiao Qing has not only performed well in one game, he has also proven that he can be the team's savior. In such difficult times, it seems that Xiao Qing should stand up. In the 26th minute of the game, Xiao Qing, who was suddenly pulled wide, received a pass from Arteta and quickly cut inside; he smashed the ball in a different direction and broke through Ivanovic, grabbing the defender and directly hitting Terry. Volley. It's a pity that Xiao Qing didn't press his instep, and Xiao Qing's shot turned into an anti-aircraft gun. There were cheers at Stamford Bridge. This is the best way to ridicule Xiao Qing; Chelsea fans certainly know Xiao Qing¡¯s ability, but seeing Xiao Qing¡¯s struggle here, Chelsea fans are naturally more excited and proud. It seems Xiao Qing's condition is very average, and it will be extremely difficult for Arsenal to win a game at Stamford Bridge. In the entire first half of the game, the two teams had very few threatening shots. Chelsea's iron-blooded defense made it difficult for Arsenal to play excellent tactical cooperation at this time. Arsenal had no way to win in the game. Exploding the team's greatest fighting power. Perhaps Chelsea coach Di Matteo's tactical arrangements were also an important reason why the Blues did not concede a goal in the first half. The interim head coach has absorbed the essence of Italian defence. They completely gave up possession of the ball, but at the same time, the team's formation was extremely tight and there was basically no loss of position. He also made targeted arrangements for Arsenal's core Xiao Qing, whenever Messi gets the ball. You can always see several players in blue chasing and intercepting them. Chelsea parked the bus in the penalty area and relied on three central midfielders to compress the space in the middle. This also made it difficult for Arteta, Xiao Qing and Robin van Persie to get space to sprint. Chelsea stick to the center and basically give up on the wings. Although Walcott and Cazorla may be able to create a certain threat on the wings, their current performance against Chelsea's full-backs is very average, plus they have players like Terry. With an excellent centre-back, Arsenal is really unlikely to grab the cross. Chelsea can be said to stick to the center. Because they know that Arsenal's offense can be said to be the most threatening in the middle; and Arsenal naturally attacks the middle, because this is Arsenal's strong point. Now this game has slowly evolved into a tug-of-war. Whoever has better tactical execution and willpower will have the opportunity to gain more initiative in this heavyweight game. In the first half of the game, Arsenal obviously had more possession of the ball, but the meaningless kick naturally did not pose any threat; now Arsenal needs to make some changes. In the first half of the game, Arsenal was completely Being led by Chelsea, this kind of tactics is not what Arsenal wants to see. The Gunners also hope to have a better performance in the game. "Continue to stick to our tactics. Don't care what tactics they adopt!" Wenger's resolute attitude in the locker room also surprised the Arsenal players, but they also became more determined. Arsenal cannot retreat now, they must Facing difficulties?. "Xiao, I need you to trust your teammates more and be at the forefront to contain their defense. I need your impact, I need you to open up space for the team." Wenger also reminded Xiao Qing. In the first half of the game, Xiao Qing was a huge magnet. There will definitely be defensive players around him; so in the second half of the game, Wenger asked Xiao Qing to be at the front, so as to create as much room for breakthroughs as possible for his teammates. As for Xiao Qing's withdrawal support, this is Wenger's confidence. He believes that even without Xiao Qing's withdrawal support. Arsenal's other attackers are also able to find passing opportunities. Xiao Qing didn't say much. His performance in the first half was average. Although retreating is a very good tactic; but now that the head coach has proposed it, Xiao Qing just stays in the frontcourt to contain the defense. . Although Xiao Qing has full confidence in his own strength, he does need more trust in his teammates. Football is a team sport. Even if Xiao Qinggui is the number one active player, it is unrealistic for one person to completely challenge a top team like Chelsea. In the second half, the two sides changed places to fight again. Neither team made any substitutions. The attitudes of both teams were very determined. They will continue to stick to their own tactics. Now it is a war of spear and shield. Now it is a test for Arsenal. It was a critical moment for Chelsea's tactical execution. Xiao Qing stayed in the frontcourt honestly. Although the situation of his teammates was not very good, Xiao Qing's presence was still very good. With the restraint of Xiao Qing and Van Persie, Chelsea's defense did not dare to make any move. Carelessly, this can be regarded as slightly relieving the pressure on Chelsea's midfielder. As for whether Arteta and others can pass the ball to Xiao Qing's feet at this time, this is what Xiao Qing's teammates need to test. In the 55th minute of the game, Ivanovic made a mistake in passing the ball in the frontcourt. Van Persie intercepted the ball and quickly counterattacked. Facing Chelsea's three-man defensive penalty area line in the penalty area, his volley was blocked. In the 57th minute of the game, Arsenal stole the ball in the frontcourt and Xiao Qing hit the goal hard from outside the penalty area. The ball was blocked by Cahill with his body. This is the rhythm of Arsenal's game. Arteta lived up to expectations and broke through Chelsea's midfield containment. They also gave Xiao Qing good support at this time. Xiao Qing also started to exert his strength at this time. Now this kind of game is what Xiao Qing likes. He needs to pursue better opportunities now. He now needs to help the team break the deadlock. In the 68th minute of the game, Arteta passed the ball into the penalty area; Xiao Qing lifted his foot to unload the ball. Although Terry got stuck in time, Xiao Qing steadily controlled the ball at his feet and forced a breakthrough. Xiao Qing fired a volley from the center of the penalty area, but Cech single-handedly punched him out of the penalty area. Chelsea players quickly counterattacked after winning the ball. Lampard sprinted with the ball for a few meters and then passed the ball directly. Ramirez entered the penalty area and crossed the middle. Drogba quickly reached it and leaned on Vermaelen. After protecting the ball with his back, he volleyed. This is a Drogba-style goal, and his strong physical fitness and excellent foot skills are fully reflected; Vermaelen can't do anything at all, and Szczesny can only look at the ball in the goal and shake his head. . The Stamford Bridge stadium was in a complete boil. Drogba's goal helped Chelsea break the deadlock on the field; although Arsenal had more possession of the ball, even Arsenal's shots were ahead. But Chelsea only needs to seize one opportunity to counterattack successfully. Chelsea currently leads 1-0 at home, and that is enough! This is a Chelsea-style defensive counterattack, and it is also a very common long pass; this tactic is very simple, but such simple tactics can often achieve miraculous results. This is the tactic that suits Chelsea best, and now they have used this characteristic very well, so they scored and they took the lead at home. Arsenal are one goal behind in the away game, which also makes Arsenal feel more and more pressure; Arsenal now need to burst out with greater combat effectiveness. They need to work hard to attack Chelsea's defense, but Arsenal also need to be wary of Chelsea's defense. There was a counterattack because Arsenal couldn't afford to keep conceding goals. Chelsea, who are leading at home, are very straightforward. They just don¡¯t want to give Arsenal away goals in this game, and being able to score this goal naturally makes them more excited. So now it is very simple, there is no need for any hesitation at all, concentrate on defense, as long as Arsenal is not allowed to score, this game will be a complete victory for Chelsea. This is also an absolute guarantee that Chelsea will be one step closer to the Champions League final. Bus tactics, iron barrel formation, Italian-style chain defense these are not important. As long as Arsenal is not allowed to score, it is the best tactic. As long as they can advance to the Champions League final, then Chelsea does not care whether the scene is good or not. Ugly!
