Football’s First Defender
Chapter 248: 3 consecutive victories
For the promotion of the Premier League in the new season, especially for the increasingly popular Chinese market, the kick-off time of the game will continue to be close to Asian time!
The most eye-catching Chelsea team, because Yang Feng is in the team, has a large fan base in mainland China, so it is naturally selected as the opening match of the new Premier League season, and the game time is also arranged in China The prime time, 19:45!
After Chelsea defeated the visiting city of Hull 2-1, it was followed by the start time of the first round of the Premier League big group game. As many as 6 Premier League games, kick-offs at the same time, all at 22:00 Beijing time. At the beginning, it can be said that the "prime time" of the Premier League gives Chinese fans who are used to staying up late and hurting their bodies in the past, a coherent and not too late time for watching football!
Although the six Premier League games that started at 10 o'clock in the evening did not have the four giants of the Premier League today, this seemingly "chicken pecking" game can also show the style of the Premier League teams. , See the charm of the Premier League!
For many veteran Premier League fans, these six games are not without spectacle. For example, the Manchester City club, which is also in Manchester and sponsored by Petroleum Capital in the past two years, is the team that many Chinese fans have been paying attention to.
Back then, when Sun Jihai was still playing for Manchester City, many fans regarded Manchester City as their home team. Although the "Chinese Sun" has now left Manchester City, it does not hinder some fans and regards Manchester City as the second place besides Chelsea. Home team.
And I have to say that Manchester City is indeed very strong in signings in these two seasons. With hundreds of millions of pounds smashed, Manchester City's strength is also growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, especially in the overcrowded midfield. Said to be the dazzling stars.
And Manchester City did not waste their excellent midfield configuration. Thanks to Chelsea’s high traffic, the audience who stayed behind to watch Manchester City have witnessed the outstanding performance of Manchester City 2-0 away from Blackburn, its outstanding offensive ability, and Robinho’s personal performance. He has attracted countless fans among Chinese fans.
After the start of the big group, the second giants on the first game day should be on the stage. The Arsenal team, which has achieved profitability in the transfer market in another year, still guarantees its offensive firepower, selling people every year, but also Newcomers in the team have been discovered time after time, and Professor Wenger's handsome position has remained very stable!
In the first game of the new season, Arsenal beat the "Taffy" Everton 6-1 away, using five goal difference to send himself directly to the top of the list!
On the first match day, there were 8 games in a row. Although there were only two Premier League matches in Sunday's match, it still relied on the two giants to attract enough attention.
On Sunday’s game, the first game was still played in prime time in China. At 20:30, the defending champion Manchester United faced the newly promoted Birmingham team at Old Trafford. With Rooney’s goal, Manchester United won easily 1-0. It is a reassurance for the Red Devils who are worried about Manchester United's injury in the new season!
In the final match of the first round of the Premier League kick-off at 23:00, Liverpool, one of the four giants who played the finale, overturned at White Hart Lane. Although the Red Captain Gerrard scored a goal, Liverpool's overall performance was very poor. In the end, the away game was 1 to 2, and Bailu Lane was bitter. In the first round of the league, it fell into the ranks of the chasers.
Regarding the live broadcast time of Premier League matches, although in the United Kingdom, fans have begun to criticize the game kick-off time getting earlier and earlier, the bright sunshine sometimes affects the live watching experience. However, for the overall benefit of Premier League broadcast rights and worldwide promotion, the Premier League is still more inclined to consolidate the game time into the current situation. The income of the Asian market is gradually becoming indispensable for Premier League broadcast income. a part of.
And Chinese fans, I have to say that more people are beginning to like or try to watch Premier League matches, especially after Yang Feng "led" Chelsea to win the Champions League successfully, even some "rich" fans have to admit , Chelsea has really become the so-called traditional giants, and the Premier League games gather the four giants, and the exciting and suspenseful format of the championship is indeed more attractive to neutral fans than other leagues, where the strong and weak matches are more attractive...
Interestingly, in the first round of the Premier League, 10 games were finished, all were won and there was no tie. Although there were two low scores of 1 to 0 and 4 of 2 to 0, Arsenal contributed to one game. 7 balls, but also let most people watch it straightforwardly.
After CCTV purchased the rights to broadcast the Premier League, even if several expensive online platforms simultaneously broadcasted the audience, in terms of audience ratings, the audience ratings of the first round of Premier League games still crushed the other games.
Among them, there are big reasons for taking care of the so-called "prime time" in Europe, and other leagues, for the games of the giants, are still willing to arrange the games in the early morning. After having the right to choose, the games of the giants of the Premier League Time, obviously more favored by Chinese fans.
After the first round of the Premier League, the Chelsea team continued to work overtime to hone some of Ancelotti's new tactics while preparing for the new round.
For An Pang, he himself is a coach who has proven himself in a giant team. Although the core players of Chelsea’s team have been stable over the years, he can try a new attack by adjusting one or two starting positions. Tactics, branding one's own tactics into Chelsea's body is still feasible for An Fat.
In the second round of the league, Chelsea began to try Ancelotti's new offensive tactics against the "Black Cat" Sunderland.
In this game, Deco started the field, defended in the midfielder, and organized offense.
The former midfielder Essien was placed on the right by Ancelotti, acting as the right midfielder of the diamond-shaped midfielder, but Essien’s attributes are determined, and he can only be on the right for the team. Make more contributions to the defense.
Aiming at Essien’s strong offensive and weak attributes, Ancelotti simply used Ivanovic, who performed better on the offensive end, to replace Bosingwa as a right back guard in this game, using Ivanovic. Strangely inserted to strengthen the offensive strength on the right side.
The front midfielder is Lampard, while the left midfielder is still Malouda.
Although the owner Abramovich’s direct Russian player Zhirkov was bought at a high price, Ancelotti’s side is very clear that Zhirkov can play for dozens of minutes in each game to adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League game, but Still unable to shake Malouda's starting position.
Although Sunderland's strength may be a bit stronger than Hull City, in his Stadium of Light, tens of thousands of "Black Cat" fans cheered, they did perform very well in the opening game.
But the hard power of the team lies there. Although Ancelotti’s 442 diamond midfield tactics also made Chelsea players a little awkward, relying on the players' strong personal strength, Chelsea still completed the season two. The task of winning streak, but the progress of the game is somewhat thrilling for Chelsea players.
Sunderland’s forward player Darren Bent successfully pried Cech’s ten fingers off with a long shot in the 18th minute of the first half, and then Sunderland, who returned to the defense, faced right. Lu, because Essien is acting as a right midfielder, and his offensive power is obviously not outstanding. Chelsea's attack on the left side is still in the center, and more manpower is deployed for defensive control.
In the first half of the game, Chelsea accounted for 70% of the ball but only completed 8-foot shots. The offensive combination with a lame leg is really unable to organize a threatening attack. And Sunderland, after hitting the goal with 3 kicks in the opening game and taking a long shot to take the lead, he was completely "slavish" at home. In the next 30 minutes of the game, there was a massive counterattack. There were no shots, and everyone was defending safely.
During the intermission, the threat to Chelsea's right wing was not enough, and Lampard was the current midfielder alone, and was guarded by Sunderland backcourt players. Ancelotti decisively replaced it with adjustments.
Ballack came off the bench at the beginning of the second half of the game, as a right midfielder, replaced Essien to strengthen Chelsea's offense.
After replacing Ballack with a strong offensive ability, Chelsea’s offense has clearly improved compared to the first half, with a smoother conduction of the ball, and the increased threat of attack on the right has also attracted back Sunderland’s defensive attention. , Created a certain opportunity for other attacks.
Lampard in the middle, after Ballack shared the pressure on the offensive end, his performance was getting better and better. In the 56th minute of the game, Lampard successfully shot from long range and equalized for Chelsea.
After returning to the same starting line, Chelsea's offense afterwards, without the pressure to catch up, became more comfortable.
And Sunderland is still sticking to it. For these teams that have been aiming at relegation, it is also a victory to score 1 point against a giant team.
Chelsea's ball possession rate was close to 80% in the real-time data of the game. The super high ball possession rate and smooth attack in the second half also gave Chelsea more shooting opportunities.
In the 61st minute of the game, Chelsea's offensive came back. Ballack received a pass from Lampard in the penalty area and directly chose to volley. The ball went straight to the dead corner. Chelsea completed the lead over.
At this time, even if Sunderland wanted to attack and look for an offensive opportunity, the players had limited strength. Several uncooperative direct long passes were resolved by Yang Feng and Terry. For the middle and lower teams, this Brainless long pass to find the only offensive point in the frontcourt, Yang Feng has become an absolute guarantee for Chelsea's back defense when they abuse food.
In 70 minutes, when Chelsea attacked, Deco timely inserted a long-range shot to seal the victory for Chelsea.
Sunderland, who was behind by 2 goals, also chose to surrender after several long shots to no avail.
Chelsea’s schedule at the beginning of this season can definitely be said to be a sweet schedule. It may also be Chelsea’s behavior to win the Champions League. This is the reason why the Premier League has another face. Without any suspense, establish the team's points lead in the early stage.
In the third round of the league, Chelsea challenged the Fulham team, who are also the "farmers" of the London team.
Although Fulham's explosive performance last season became a mid-upper team, it was only because of the loss of players in the transfer market this season and the team's distraction in the Europa League (from the UEFA Cup in 2009) The reason for the change to the UEFA Europa League) does not pose much threat to Chelsea. After all, two days before the team faced Chelsea, it had just fought against the Russian Super League team in the final qualifying round~lightnovelpub.net~Chelsea faced Fulham, who was not physically fit, of course not in London. In the Derby, he was merciful and easily defeated Fulham 2-0 in the away game. After the third round of the league, Chelsea finally completed the first zero seal of the season.
In this game, because of Deco's physical problems, Ancelotti chose Mikel in the midfield to play the back midfielder, and Ballack played the right midfielder's new diamond midfield combination. It turns out that in Fuller Chelsea's offensive effect is pretty good under the defense of Tom, but it takes time to test whether it can cope with the tough battle with the giants.
At least the two goals in this game have nothing to do with the new tactics.
In the corner kick tactics at the end of the first half, Yang Feng successfully competed in the first point to reach the football, and the header was passed to the back point. Drogba squeezed his position and hit the goal successfully, setting the record for Chelsea.
In the second half, Anelka's goal was an indirect assist from Yang Feng. In a wing attack by Fulham, Yang Feng relied on his excellent anticipation to successfully intercept the opponent's wing player and break through Ivanovic's inverted triangle pass. After that, Yang Feng passed the ball to Lampard nearby, and Lampard completed the final pass, assisting Anelka to counterattack...
Chelsea, with three consecutive victories, under the circumstances that the other three giants had overturned in the first three rounds, they performed well with Tottenham at the beginning of the season. The same three-game winning streak had the same score of 9 points. Because of the goal difference, they ranked The second place in the Premier League.
However, in the fourth round of the Premier League match, Chelsea is destined to have one less match first and will find time for a make-up match.
After the match against Fulham, the Chelsea team boarded a passenger plane and flew to France on the opposite side of England. After getting off the plane in Paris, they will travel to the Principality of Monaco to compete for the European Super Cup...
