Chapter 12 Penalty Shootout
Chapter 12 Penalty Shootout
It's finally time for the bayonet to see the red!After waiting for nine and 10 minutes, it finally came to the most exciting time!
All the sleepy fans in front of the TV cheered up. Many people turned the volume to the maximum and looked at the TV screen without blinking, not wanting to miss any details.
Of course, before the start of the penalty shootout, there was still some rest time. While the referee was discussing where to take the penalty, the players from both sides gathered near the center circle. They seized this little time to massage the players, and the assistant coaches were discussing the order of players to play...
Lehman was arranging his gloves, when Li Yuxin patted him on the shoulder, and then stuffed him with something.
Lehman didn't show any unexpected expression, he nodded to Li Yuxin, then carefully put the note that Li Yuxin stuffed into his socks, and then walked towards the referee.
"Give it to him?" Wenger asked.
"Yes." Li Yuxin nodded, and then said with a sigh: "Our coaching staff is still very strong, at least the ability to collect information must be strong..."
Wenger smiled, it's just that he has already started to prepare... It's no secret that Chelsea's players take free kicks. It can be judged from the video of their penalty kicks.
Small note, um, in a conversation with the assistant coach before the game, Li Yuxin proposed the habit of using a small note to write down the opponent’s penalty kick, so as to increase the odds of winning. This whimsical idea was adopted by the professor, but due to the short time, it could not be as accurate as Germany’s in the World Cup.
In fact, before the semi-finals in 06, no one thought that this method could be used to gain an advantage before the penalty shootout-it is also surprising that the Germans, who are known for their rigor, could first come up with this method...
But even so, Arsenal will have a huge advantage!
After tossing a coin, the referee chose the half where Chelsea was in the second half of overtime as the place to take the penalty kick. This is slightly beneficial to Chelsea. After all, Cech seems to be more familiar with the vicinity of the goal...
Lehmann doesn't care about this, he spends the same amount of time guarding the goal here as Petr Cech, but the temporary memory is worse.
At this time, the head coaches of both sides also submitted the starting list for the penalty shootout. This list does not need to be disclosed to the other side, so for the head coaches of both sides, this is a mystery...
Both Wenger and Mourinho returned to their seats. Of course, neither of them sat down. Instead, they stood on the sidelines, watching the halftime of the penalty shootout.
"Penalty shootouts are about to start soon... Well, now let's look at some technical statistics...Arsenal have no experience in penalty shootouts in the Community Shield before, and Chelsea also have a disadvantage. The penalty shooter Drogba is already off the pitch. They have missed five penalties this season. At the same time, in the penalty shootouts of the England national team's last four international games, the first one to miss a penalty was a Chelsea player! Robba's penalty kick is very good..."
Li Yuxin is very confident: The penalty shootout in Munich is the 11th penalty shootout that Chelsea has encountered in the Abramovich era.Three of these were in the Champions League, four in the League Cup, two in the Community Shield, as well as an FA Cup and a pre-season friendly.The Blues are 3-4 in these 11 singles at 12 yards, a winning percentage of just 3%.Counting from Mourinho, among the 8 coaches appointed by Abramovich, only Hiddink has not experienced the baptism of penalty shootouts, and the remaining 27 coaches have all experienced the feeling of heartbeat. Except for Villas-Boas and Di Matteo this season, the other 7 coaches have all fallen in penalty shootouts.
Mourinho is the worst penalty kick
What makes Chelsea fans a little unbelievable is that among these coaches, the one with the worst penalty shootout record is the "special one" they love the most: Mourinho.This season, watching the Portuguese, who is already the coach of Real Madrid, knelt on his knees in the semi-final penalty shootout, you will know how guilty Mourinho is about the penalty shootout, and Uncle Psy’s psychological shadow on the penalty shootout can be said to be deeply buried during Chelsea’s coaching period.
Thinking of these news, Li Yuxin became more confident!
Two goalkeepers stood behind the goal and after a coin toss it was determined that Arsenal had taken the penalty first.
The first one to stand up was Henry.
As the core of the team and the first penalty shooter, Henry's duty-bound first appearance.
Cech stood in front of the goal, waiting for the opponent's first penalty.
Putting the ball on the penalty spot, Henry took a deep breath, started running after hearing the referee's whistle, and then kicked and shot!
It was obvious that Henry was a bit cautious. He shot directly to the lower right corner with his right foot. Cech made an excellent judgment. He fell to the ground in time and stretched out his long arms, but the ball flew into the goal from his fingertips!
Henry raised his hands high and was extremely confident. The Arsenal fans cheered from the stands, and the Chelsea fans hugged their heads one after another. The first goal was scored, which is a good sign...
"Let you defend! Do you think you can win with a penalty kick?! You can't beat us with a penalty kick!" The Arsenal fans in the stands yelled at the stadium frantically, wanting to use this to put pressure on the Chelsea players.
"Oh, Arsenal scored this penalty kick...Henry's penalty kick had a high hit rate, but he played this penalty kick very well! Such a goal is a big blow to Chelsea..."
"Cech is worthy of being a top goalkeeper! His judgment is very accurate, but he didn't save Henry's penalty kick! Now Arsenal are starting to gain the upper hand! If Chelsea defend until now and finally lose the penalty kick, it will be a big blow to them. After all, they have always wanted to drag the game into a penalty shootout... If they still lose in the penalty shootout, they may not be able to hold their heads up for a long time..."
"Such a passive, non-entertaining way of football should suffer the fate of failure! Mourinho's extremely utilitarian approach should be punished! Arsenal will definitely win!" The pro-Arsenal commentator shouted: "Even if it is a penalty shootout, we will win!"
Wenger was unmoved on the sidelines, still watching the field quietly, he knew that the advantage was obvious, and Li Yuxin was also watching him thinking that if he really won the game in this way, he would definitely set a new record and start the new season well!
However, he was not excited. He firmly believed that he would win, and with a good start, he would win too!
This is a belief and an absolute self-confidence.
Arsenal's fortunes have changed!The champion will come!
