Chapter 696 Mourinho breaks the game
"The situation of the game is developing in an unexpected direction. Arsenal conceded two goals in a row in the first half, which put them in an extremely passive situation. Tottenham have come up with a new tactic, Harry Kane's fulcrum role It made Arsenal's defense even more chaotic!"
"We can only hope that Mourinho can formulate an effective tactic for the entire occupation during the intermission!"
In the Arsenal locker room, the players were a little frustrated.
Conceded two goals in a row, and the inexplicable conceded goals made them feel extremely at a loss.
Obviously they have played according to the tactics, but there is still a passive situation.
The two conceded goals made the players a little irritable and annoyed.
The players are thinking about what went wrong.
At this point, Mourinho walked into the locker room.
"Attention everyone!"
Without talking nonsense, Mourinho took off his down vest and threw it to the side, then pulled out the tactical board and said seriously; "First of all, I need to apologize. The goal conceded in the first half has a lot to do with the coaching staff, and It's not that you guys didn't play well, it's that we didn't do our job well, we didn't expect Tottenham to adopt a new tactic, and this new tactic has a lot of restraint for us!
Mourinho's opening statement made the Arsenal players look slightly better.
At this point they really need some comfort.
After seeing everyone's expressions improved, Mourinho slapped the tactical board and said; "Next, you need to remember every word of mine clearly"
"Tottenham's offense presents two modes, the first is the organizational role of the midfielder, and the second is the fulcrum role of the frontcourt!"
"Eriksen and Harry Kane are the initiators of these two goals!"
"Harry Kane's fulcrum role has confused our defense. His retreat and making the ball are equivalent to a second organization in the frontcourt. This is the key to our loss of the ball!"
As soon as the voice fell, Lukaku suddenly raised his hand and said; "I understand, that's how I played football before!"
Mourinho said bluntly: "You are passing the ball blindly!"
Hearing this, Lukaku was depressed.
The teammates were stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.
Lucy couldn't help laughing too.
Mourinho is so good.
But what he said is okay, Lukaku is passing the ball blindly and organizing blindly, and Harry Kane is obviously not like this.
The players still understand the 'fulcrum attribute', so Mourinho's special explanation was omitted, and they directly started to make tactical arrangements.
"First of all, there must be a press on the spot, high position press! This is currently the most effective style of play. It is impossible for me to familiarize you with that complicated tactical system in a short period of time. Therefore, if you want to win, you must spare no effort to fight physically. Grab the ball!"
"Secondly, you must not put danger in your own half, limit Eriksson's actions, prevent the opponent's organization from showing scale, and not let him play the ball as he wants!"
"As long as we do this, we can effectively contain the opponent's attack, but this is not a cure, so we need to hurry up and tie the score!"
After finishing speaking, Mourinho looked at Le Kai and said, "In the second half, you play as a central midfielder!"
Lucky nodded; "No problem!"
"You have only one task, to help the team create chances to score goals, I know you have the ability to do this, your passing is the best."
When Mourinho arrived, he didn't forget to pour chicken soup for Lucky.
Le Kai also nodded at this; "We will score!"
"Okay, everyone cheer up, let's show each other some color in the second half!"
Intermission is over.
Players from both sides came to the field, and the commentators found that Arsenal had changed.
Wilshere off, Ramsey off the bench.
This is also a signal to push Lucky to the offensive line.
After all, Arsenal needs goals too much now.
At the same time, Lucky can better cooperate with Arsenal's high-position press in the frontcourt.
"Arsenal took the lead in making substitutions. Obviously, Tottenham's two goals put Arsenal in a critical moment. Mourinho also had to make substitutions and make tactical adjustments!"
"We don't know how Mourinho will make a choice, but as an excellent head coach, he should be able to figure out a way!"
The Arsenal fans at the scene were a little nervous.
Their hearts are extremely heavy.
It's never fun to be behind, and if they lose this derby, they'll be even more emo
They couldn't stand the way Tottenham fans swaggered over their heads.
Arsenal's overall atmosphere is extremely dignified.
In contrast, Tottenham's morale is high.
"Let's take the three points at the Emirates Stadium!"
"Kill Arsenal!"
The Tottenham players were all excited.
It seems that the victory has been won.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Arsenal opened the game with Lucky taking the lead in attacking.
An exquisite frontcourt interspersed with passing and cutting cooperation, and finally Le Kai distributed the ball to Mane. Mane's strong shot was blocked by the opponent's full-back and flew out of the sideline.
Arsenal's offensive attempts after the opening achieved good results.
But soon, Tottenham got the ball again.
The Arsenal players immediately became nervous.
Dell raised his hand to ask for the ball. As soon as he got the ball, Aubameyang came to him at a speed of sprinting 100 meters and directly pressed for it.
The huge impact caused the two to collide, but neither of them fell down, but struggled to fight physically.
Dell passed the ball to Sun Xingmin in front with some difficulty.
But as soon as Sun Xingmin got the ball, Le Kai directly hooked the ball with a sliding tackle.
Sun Xingmin fell directly to the ground and raised his hand to signal a foul.
But the referee pointed to the attacking direction, indicating that there was no foul.
Under Le Kai's steal, Arsenal launched a counterattack again.
And this time it will be more capable.
Lucky kicked a pass directly to the penalty area.
After a period of confusion, Lukaku hit the ball, but he didn't get the right part. Goalkeeper Lori held the ball in his arms.
In the second half, Arsenal changed their attitude and launched two good attacks.
Seeing this, Andy Gray, the commentator of the Sky Sports live broadcast room, was also excited; "That's right! This is the rhythm that Arsenal should play. They played too passively in the first half. Mourinho The adjustment of the intermission time also played a good role!"
The shot was given to Mourinho, and it was found that Mourinho's expression was extremely rich.
Either excited for the steal, or regretful for not being able to score.
Mourinho is very clear that this is a short-term containment effect and cannot be completely eradicated.
Once Arsenal are unable to score a goal in such a fierce high-position press, when they are physically exhausted, they are lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Must score!
Must play more threateningly!
Lucky is also constantly observing the frontcourt, and his teammates are working hard after entering the second half.
But there is also a time limit for this kind of hard work. Once the physical energy is exhausted, they will no longer be able to run.
Therefore, the equalizer must be completed within this limit.
Thinking of this, Le Kai's position is even more pressed.
"Kai is coming up, be careful with long shots!"
The defender reminded that the goalkeeper Lori's face was also extremely dignified.
Lucky's long shot made him extremely afraid.
Lucky pressed directly near the penalty area line, and Tottenham had to assign a central defender to resist Lucky, which also relieved Lukaku's pressure.
Le Kai turned his head to look at the right wing, thinking to himself:
"Robertson, it's time to come up!"
Sure enough, Robertson held the ball and approached at high speed on the wing. He and Mane completed a two-for-one cooperation. Mane distributed the ball to the outside, and Robertson met the ball and made a direct pass.
At this moment, Le Kai suddenly started and ran towards the back point crazily.
Tottenham's defense was also attracted by Lucky's big move. Although it was only less than a second, it was enough.
At this time, Lukaku has already taken off like pulling a green onion on dry land.
The whole body remains tense, and at the moment when the forehead touches the ball, the waist twists vigorously and the neck also turns.
The ball flew directly to the back post.
It hit the goal post with a ding and flew into the goal.
A very British-style flying on both wings + long pass.
Although the goal is not beautiful, it is extremely effective.
Lucky and Lukaku used their ability to grab points to the fullest. Lucky took the initiative to attract attention, and Lukaku took on the task of scoring goals.
In 61 minutes of the second half, Lukaku helped Arsenal equalize a goal!
