Chapter 382
The game continues.

In this game, although both sides have made some restrictions on the possession of the ball in the midfield against the other side, they are generally attack-oriented.

Therefore, after the opening, the two sides played back and forth, which was very lively.

The stars of both sides are all skilled, and they can often play pleasing and exquisite cooperation, which naturally makes the fans watching the game hooked.

However, when the game progressed to the 18th minute, there was a little accident on the court.

This was originally an offensive by Chelsea. The ball went to the frontcourt and came to Lukaku's feet.

Hanhan took the ball with his back. Seeing that there was no chance to move forward, he passed it back to the midfield, and Matic passed it to Kanter.

Kanter caught the ball, dunked over to the defending Busquets, and then brought it forward.

At this time, Barcelona's central defender Pique also rushed up to defend.

beep! !

I heard a crisp whistle from the Turkish referee Cakir resounding through the stadium.

It turned out that Kanter was tripped by Pique from his side and rolled on the ground with the ball.

At this time, the referee Chakier decisively blew a foul, and called Pique to him, gave him a stern warning, but did not show a yellow card.

"We saw that Kante hadn't got up from the ground yet, and the Chelsea players surrounded him. David Luiz went up to check on his team-mate's injuries, but it didn't look very promising. He called the team doctor on the sidelines. .”

"This is not a good sign. The game has just started less than 10 minutes. If Kanter is injured at this time, it will be a very painful blow to Chelsea."

"Because we all know that Kanter is not only the current Chelsea team's interception king and steal king, but also very good at offensive organization. It can be said that he is a true all-around midfielder."

"Because of this, after the opening game today, we can see that Barcelona has a very tight defense against Kanter's possession of the ball. Basically, as soon as he has the ball, someone presses past him. This also makes Kanter's violation today relatively relatively More, but also increased his chances of injury."

"Pan Yi also seemed a little anxious on the sidelines, so he quickly sent the team doctor to the field."

"The stretcher has also gone up, and it seems that the injury is really serious."

All the Chelsea fans at the scene seemed very worried, but the Barcelona fans were the opposite. They booed bursts, as if to say that Kanter was flopping.

From the heart of Barcelona fans, they certainly hope that Kanter will not be able to continue playing.

After all, everyone knows Kanter's important role in Chelsea's midfield. Once injured, it will be a serious blow to Chelsea's midfield.

Finally, after the team doctor went up to treat Kanter's injury, he gestured towards Pan Yi on the sidelines, and then carried Kanter onto a stretcher and sent him directly to the sidelines for treatment.

But on the court, the referee Chakir signaled the game to continue, and Chelsea got a long-range set-kick opportunity.

Pan Yi didn't care about the situation on the court at this time, and walked directly to the sidelines, and asked Kanter with concern: "How is it, how do you feel?"

"It's okay..." Kanter looked at the team doctor.

The team doctor shook his head slightly: "The right leg was shoveled, but it didn't hurt much. What was really serious was that he sprained his right foot when he was shoveled and fell off. I guess..."

Following the gestures of the team doctor, Pan Yi saw the bloodstains left by the spikes on Kanter's right calf, but he couldn't see the sprain.

But hearing what the team doctor said, then Kanter must have no way to play again.

"Damn, is Pique so cruel?" Pan Yi scolded.

In fact, under the scientific training method of Pintus this season, Chelsea's generals have very few injuries, and Pan Yi's players can play at full strength most of the time.

Like Hazard and Matic were injured after being violated in the game, there is really no way.

No matter how well you take care of yourself, you can't stand up to other people's driving indiscriminately!

But today Kanter was shoveled again, and it happened not long after the crucial Champions League final, which is indeed difficult.

Not to mention wasting a substitution, some pre-match arrangements should be changed accordingly.

After all, Kanter's defensive coverage ability and comprehensive offensive and defensive conversion ability cannot be replaced by just anyone.

But Pan Yi now has no other choice but to substitute.

Pan Yi thought a lot in his heart, but with his usual expression, he leaned over and smiled at Kanter, "Okay, I will allow you to be lazy and rest today, and then go to the podium to hold the trophy later!"

"Boss, I'm sorry, I..." Kanter was a little nervous.

He certainly understands the impact of his injury on the team.

Not to mention his role in the midfield, he used up a substitution in the first ten minutes or so, which will bring great unpredictability to Chelsea's subsequent games.

After all, this is a final that determines the outcome. If the winner cannot be determined within 90 minutes, 30 minutes of overtime will be played.

At that time, will and physical fitness will often play a decisive role, so the three places for substitutions are also particularly important.

The impact of the new force sometimes plays the most critical role!This is why many times the substitute can make contributions.

But I have to leave the field before I have played for 20 minutes, which means that a lot of physical energy has been wasted...

So Kanter is really not feeling well.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, go over there and take a good look, and leave this to me."

Pan Yi, however, patted Kanter on the shoulder easily, motioned for the team doctor to carry the stretcher over, and then turned around and walked towards the bench.

Since you want to change someone, you have to decide who to change first.

At this point in time, the rules of the UEFA Champions League are still 18 players per game. After starting 11 players, only 7 players can sit on the bench.

Today's seven substitutes, Pan Yi chose a goalkeeper Martin, two defenders Ivanovic and Ake, two midfielders Chik and Ramirez, two forwards Gnabry and Bamford .

This arrangement is mainly to take into account multi-faceted and tactical.

From the perspective of versatility, both Ake and Ivanovic can play both central defenders and fullbacks, while Gnabry and Bamford can also switch between center forwards and wingers.

As for tactics, the main reason is to consider the possible high-altitude bombing against Barcelona. The selection of the 1.9-meter-one midfielder Cheek is obvious!
And now that Kanter is injured, Pan Yi can only choose one of Cheek and Ramirez to come off the bench.

Compared with these two players, Ramirez must have more experience, more comprehensive, and stronger ability to fight tough battles.

But because of this, perhaps Barcelona has studied him more thoroughly, and may have the same method as dealing with Kanter.

Or in other words, Ramirez and Kanter also have certain similarities in terms of technical characteristics.

That is, their main task on the field is to defend and provide protection for their teammates, but they are also very strong offensively, running fast, and have a good shot.

Chick's role is relatively different.

In addition to his ability to provide support for the midfielder, excellent short passing ability, and excellent ability to advance with the ball, not every midfielder can do that sudden header ability.

But Cheek's shortcomings are also obvious. Although he is tall and big, his confrontation ability is actually average. After he came on the field, his defense against Chelsea's midfield was actually weakened.

Who should I choose?
Pan Yi made a decisive decision and pointed to Chick: "You, hurry up and warm up and get ready to play."

Not for anything else, but to highlight a surprise soldier!
Raider Chick!

Judging from the situation of less than 20 minutes in the opening game, Enrique should have studied his own tactics very thoroughly. It should be difficult to open the situation if he uses some conventional styles of play.

Just taking advantage of this passive substitution, a "surprise" surprise, maybe it will have a miraculous effect.

Hearing Pan Yi call him, Chick jumped up from his seat and took off his coat excitedly.

Originally, he was selected into the 18-man squad for the Champions League final today, and he was already very happy and satisfied.

After all, among the players who can play as a defensive midfielder, in addition to the starting Matic and Kanter, there are also Ramirez, Mikel, and even Ake, David Luiz and so on.

But Pan Yi still chose him.

And now, the boss wants him to play!
Of course Chick was even more excited.

He immediately ran to the warm-up area on the sidelines to sprint back and forth a few times, completely moving his body.

Not long after, he ran back to Pan Yi's side.

Pan Yi told him some precautions after playing, that is, try to stabilize the midfield as much as possible first, and don't let Barcelona take advantage of it.

As for Chick's characteristics, let's wait until the situation is stabilized!
Soon, Cheek was substituted.
-
"Haha, today's luck seems to be really good."

On the sidelines, Luis Enrique could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Of course he understands the importance of Kanter to Chelsea, or the importance to Pan Yi.

This is the only player who won the Champions League in Milan, followed Pan Yi to Hamburg, and finally came to Chelsea!

From this, we can see how much Pan Yi likes Kanter.

Now Kanter is injured, and he is replaced by a 19-year-old boy from England.

What's more, it's only been 10 minutes since the game.

Barcelona really have a great chance today!

"Pan Yi did not go to Ramirez, but to go to Cheek, which is a bit strange." The assistant coach Juan Carlos on the side was a little puzzled.

Looking at Chelsea's bench, no matter how you choose, you should choose Ramirez who is more balanced, better defensively, and more experienced. How can you play Cheek who feels top-heavy and too young?

"Let's see." Enrique touched his face and looked at the field, "If Pan Yi's operation can be guessed by others, then he is not Pan Yi..."

Afterwards, Enrique ordered again: "But no matter what he thinks, now that Kanter has gone down, it is our chance. Tell the players to continue to increase the intensity of the midfielder and the frontcourt. Once there is a chance, give it to me." Fight back."

"Understood." Juan Carlos smiled and took the order.

Of course he can also see that after Kanter leaves the field, Chelsea's midfield defense will inevitably become weak! ——
"Ah, it's troublesome now."

In the grandstand, Abramovich also became dignified.

Even as an ordinary fan, he knows the current situation on the court.

Since Kanter left the field, Barcelona quickly stepped up the pressing and oppression of the audience.

Although Pan Yi quickly replaced Chick, Enrique further encouraged the players to press up, completely disrupting Chelsea's rhythm, and the Blues were unable to control the ball for a long time.

Under the interference of Barcelona, ​​Chelsea made frequent pass mistakes in the midfield, which is not a good sign.

They are all the top teams in Europe, but any slight change in the game may be transformed into an opportunity for the opponent, let alone a core midfielder injured so seriously.

It can be said that Kanter's end is equivalent to breaking off one of Pan Yi's arms!

"Don't worry, boss, Pan Yi is already making adjustments, the most important thing now is to stabilize your position first." Cheer*Bruce Barker on the side comforted Abramovich.

In the stadium, Pan Yi did not sit in the coach's bench and eat spicy noodles anymore, but walked to the sidelines, shouting at the players and adjusting the team's tactics.

But Enrique next to him was pressing every step of the way, not giving Chelsea a chance to breathe.

He waved his hands vigorously to make his players press on, press on, and press on!
This made it difficult for Abu to breathe steadily.

Not far from them, Barcelona chairman Bartomeu couldn't help grinning.

This time it can be said that God helped Barcelona!
Bartomeu raised his head and looked at the dark night sky outside the lights, as if seeing the stars of victory twinkling towards him.
-
And on the court, Barcelona players will of course be keenly aware of the coming opportunities.

Just as Enrique arranged, they launched a more active fight against Chelsea's midfield.

Especially when the young Cheek gets the ball, people like Rakitic, Busquets and others will immediately swarm up, and sometimes even Messi, Neymar and others will come back to help steal.

This approach quickly showed results.

After all, Cheek is indeed not very experienced, and it is the first time in his life to be on such an important stage, and he is still passive, which always makes him not so well prepared mentally.

After he played, he needed some time to adapt to the rhythm of the field, but being robbed by the Barcelona generals, this adaptation time was invisibly lengthened.

Of course, the opponent will not wait for you to adapt or not!
After Cheek turned around and failed to protect the ball, and the ball was stabbed by Rakitic to Messi's feet, the performance of the MSN group began!

At this time, Messi had already switched to the left to take the ball. He advanced quickly as usual, and successfully got rid of the two defensive players with his extremely fast pace and fake moves.

At this time, Neymar has also rushed forward, Messi passed the ball along the way, Neymar caught the ball and handed it to the middle.

Suarez made a lightning-fast drive in, body-squeezed away centre-back David Luiz and parked the ball.

It's just that David Luiz quickly posted it again. Suarez saw that it was difficult to have time to make adjustments, so he volleyed vigorously towards the goal in a half-turned state!
However, at this time, Chelsea goalkeeper Courtois quickly stretched out his hands and saved the must-have goal with a quick reaction.

But the second point of the ball was still taken by Messi.

Almost at the same time, he also heard Neymar shouting from the far end.

The horse is barking, which means he is in a better position!

This is the tacit understanding cultivated by the three South American superstars long ago.

So Messi immediately took a few steps, and between the slight movements of his toes, he easily picked up the ball and flew to the back point.

When the ball flew up, Messi's eyes were also on the figure of Neymar rushing towards the goal.

He knew that next, it was up to the horse.

But Chelsea's defenders are not vegetarians either.

At the moment Messi passed the ball, Terry also realized the danger of the far post, and hurriedly turned around and rushed over, preventing Neymar from easily stopping the ball and shooting.

Then came the most critical moment of this wonderful cooperation. Neymar reacted instantly. He tapped his forehead lightly, stopped the ball to his knee, and then raised his toes before the ball landed completely. He actually passed the ball again.

It turned out that Neymar was not going to shoot!
The ball went lightly towards the middle of the goal.

At this moment, Suarez has also rushed to the goal quickly, and has found the best space for the shot!
And when the ball was in front of him, Suarez showed off his amazing skills.

Under the strong pressure on him from David Luiz, he stretched out his foot, caught the ball accurately with the toe of his left foot, and then followed up with his right foot directly to shoot a semi-volley in the air!

The ball went in! ! !
The ball was too close to the goal, and Suarez's shooting method was beyond the expectations of many people. Courtois could only look at the ball and sigh.

At this time, the audience at the Berlin Olympic Stadium burst into cheers. They also applauded this wonderful cooperation for this goal.

It can be seen from the development and end of this ball that the tacit understanding of MSN has reached an unmatched state.

Their cooperation has become a beautiful landscape on the court, which is amazing!
Of course, more importantly, the goal they cooperated with gave Barcelona a one-goal lead in the final!

"Go on, don't stop."

Luis Enrique on the sidelines continued to give such instructions to his disciples after celebrating.

He just wanted to carry out his pre-match strategy: Stab each other with Chelsea and see who would be ruthless!
Isn't your Chelsea offensively strong?Isn't it impossible to keep it?I don't keep it anymore!A few more goals into you is the best defense!

At this time, the Chelsea fans on the scene were a little silent.

Barcelona's attacking trident is really well-deserved!
Under such a powerful firepower attack, can Chelsea still withstand it?
When Kanter was on the court, Chelsea fans might still have greater confidence.

But now that Kante is off the field due to injury, he was scored by Barcelona in a short period of time, and it was still in such a delicate way...

This casts a shadow over the heart of every Chelsea fan.

At this time, can Chelsea reverse the decline?
Or, did Pan Yi, the savior in their minds, think of a solution?
-
Of course Pan Yi thought about it.

Or it can be said that when Chick was replaced on the field, he thought about it.

"Boldly attack, don't be afraid!"

Pan Yi yelled at Chick, who was a little downcast on the field: "I sent you up to show your offensive ability, go and show it to your heart's content!"

The conceded goal just now started when Cheek's ball protection was broken, which of course will have some adverse effects on the mentality of the young people.

Therefore, Pan Yi wants to encourage Cheek and make him feel that the coach doesn't care about these, so that he can relax so that he can better display his abilities.

How can young people not make mistakes?
Moreover, Cheek's defensive and ball-protecting abilities are not as good as Kanter's. Even stronger than Kanter may not be able to stop so many Barcelona players from besieging like tigers, let alone a Chick?
Now if you lose the ball, you lose the ball, just try to get the ball back!
Suarez's ball just now can actually prove how difficult it is to guard the three of them.

Whether it is David Luiz or Terry, in fact, there is nothing wrong with the defense. The people and positions that should be defended are in place, but they are able to get rid of and shoot with super high skills.

Even Azpilicueta and Matic, who were passed by when Messi first started to instigate the attack, cannot be blamed too much on them.

Or as an afterthought, should the Serbian iron waist decisively pull Messi down when the first Matic is shaken, and then stop the attack?

Then maybe there won't be this goal.

But the reason why this is an "afterthought" is because on the court, the situation is always changing, and players always have to make the next decision within a few tenths of a second.

Is it to defend, to put a shovel, or to hug and fall directly?Once the decision is made, it is to go down this route, and it is difficult to have room for modification.

Then the question comes again, how do you know that Messi's extraordinary will lead to goals?

Messi may succeed ten times or more in one game. Does he have to be knocked down every time?
It may be fine if you do it once, but if you do it twice, you will be served with a yellow card or a red card.

How many Matics are there to be enough?

What's more, when Messi started his first pass, his position was only near the middle circle. It is not an unforgivable sin for Matic not to choose to bring down his opponent directly.

And when it comes to Azpilicueta, if he chooses to pull Messi down, he will be very close to the penalty area line.

At this distance, what if Messi scored a direct free kick again?
Maybe the keyboard man will start to blame Azpilicueta for not fouling, and let Messi shoot or pass the ball or it will not directly lead to the goal.

"Everyone knows that Messi is good at free kicks, but you fouled here!" Yunyun.

With hindsight, anyone can do it.

All in all, with an all-time striker combination like MSN, there are always [-] ways to get the ball into your goal, and there is no point in complaining.

Therefore, Pan Yi's tactical thinking today is not much different from that of Enrique.

That is, since MSN's cooperation and personal ability are so strong, if Chelsea players can't defend, then let's score a few more goals in front!

Therefore, the "hit it off" between the two coaches seems to have destined this game to be a wonderful poke battle...
