Chapter 345 Magic Bird
Mourinho looked at the kid who was celebrating a goal, shook his head with a wry smile, and was scored by Manchester United. Although he was annoyed with this goal, Mourinho didn't know who he should get angry at. The ball is indeed too beautiful. When Terry was broken through, everyone was shocked. It turns out that extraordinary people can be so chic.
Mourinho glanced at Manchester United's coaching bench and cursed: "Damn it!" He didn't know whether he should envy the luck of that old Scottish man. Originally, this talented young man should be wearing a blue jersey, but it turned out that Li Rui But he chose to join Manchester United.
…………
"This is Lee's No.20 eight goals in the league. Now, Lee and Didier Drogba are both 28 goals in the scorer list. Behind them is Arsenal's Thierry Henry. The number of goals scored by the French star is 26 goals. Ball, the Arsenal game will be played tomorrow, and now, the competition for the Premier League Golden Boot is more likely to be between Drogba and Lee, and now, both players are on the court."
"Haha, that's right, I believe that Lee's goal will make Drogba full of fighting spirit. The Ivorians are looking forward to the league's golden boot, and they will definitely not just sit and watch Lee snatch the golden boot at Stamford Bridge!"
***********
The game restarted, and after Manchester United took the lead, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The Manchester United players were also excited, and began to really look forward to the league championship.
It is even more impossible for Chelsea, who are playing at home, not to attack and continue to be beaten passively. Chelsea must score goals as soon as possible in order to equalize the score as soon as possible. This is the Stamford Bridge Stadium. The whole Chelsea team is looking forward to this game. Can beat Manchester United, Won the league championship trophy one round ahead of time, such a championship is perfect!
However, Li Rui's goal gave Chelsea a head-on blow. They finally realized that the league championship is not within easy reach. If one is not careful, even if the ship capsizes in the gutter, it is not a big accident. Besides, Manchester United's The strength is also there, Chelsea is really not sure of winning.
This kind of direct key duel can almost be regarded as a cup final, it is special!
************
After taking the lead, the Manchester United team was not conservative, did not deliberately retract the defense line, and still insisted on a more aggressive style of play.
In order to equalize the score as soon as possible, Chelsea naturally held high the banner of offense. For a while, the two sides fought against each other on the field, and the transition between offense and defense was extremely fast. Or waves of cheer.
"The game went on to the 31st minute and the score was still 1-0. Manchester United led away. With Lee's goal, Manchester United took the lead at Stamford Bridge. If the game ends with this score, Manchester United will win. With a win worth six points, the points will rise to the top for the first time - of course, there is still an hour to go, but there is no doubt that this is a great game - a great game requires both sides A joint effort. After leading, Manchester United was not conservative, and Chelsea also set off a frenzy of attack in order to score goals as soon as possible. The two teams set off a rare confrontation."
"That's right, this kind of game is the favorite game of the fans. For this game, the fans who came to the scene must be worth the ticket price. Of course, Chelsea fans will not be satisfied with the current score. They are eager for victory. To win the league title after this game."
***********
"- Robben! He's dribbling, beautiful! He's dribbling past... the pass? It's a shot! A shot! A little over the bar! What a pity!... Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled in midfield, his Dazzling technique at the feet! SUPER! Passed Makelele!! Still dribbling, he - shot?! Shot! Beautiful lob, Petr Cech's concentration, corner kick! Manchester United's corner kick!"
Taibi took this opportunity to take a sip of water. The offensive and defensive transitions between the two teams were so fast that the commentators were a little out of breath. This side just attacked the opponent's penalty area, and immediately a counterattack came, and they had to return to defense immediately. The fast pace of the game was a bit dizzying.
"I would say this is the best game in the Premier League this season. There was only one goal, but beautiful scenes, fast-paced game process, sharp attacking - great game!"
When the commentator was applauding the excitement of the game, he also had some doubts in his heart. The camera turned around on the Manchester United coaching bench. Ferguson was sitting on the coaching bench with a normal expression.
What everyone is wondering is, is Manchester United really planning to fight like this with Chelsea?Really don't plan to save energy for the Champions League semi-finals in the middle of next week?Really 'indifferent' to the game against Barcelona?
This is not in line with the personality of the old Scotch man at all!
***********
Manchester United's corner is taken.
This is a tactical corner kick. Giggs knocked the football to Cristiano Ronaldo. After receiving the ball, the latter pretended to take the ball and turned around. Immediately raised the left foot and hoisted the football into the penalty area!
"Tactical corner! Beautiful, Cristiano Ronaldo's technique is a treat... Giggs! Pass! Cross! In the penalty area - Lee header! Saved by Cech, still corner !Cristiano Ronaldo takes the corner! God, Rooney jumped so high, header! Right in Cech's arms... Counter attack! Counter attack!"
***********
Cech ran two steps with the football in his arms, and immediately launched a fast break with a throw. In a blink of an eye, Chelsea had already passed halftime.
Joe Cole handed the ball to Crespo, the Argentinian star passed the ball to Robben, who himself ran towards the penalty area, the Dutch 'Peter Pan' dribbled the ball, beautifully from Evra and Vidic The time passed, and Fletcher immediately came up to defend. Robben's pass hit Fletcher's studs, and rolled to the left side of the penalty area. His feet were a bit unprepared. He lifted his foot and shot, but the football did not exert strength. Van der Sar held the football firmly.
…………
When the football fell to Crespo's feet, the entire Stamford Bridge stadium boiled. However, the quality of Crespo's shot was really poor, and the blue ocean immediately booed a lot.
The camera was aimed at the Argentine star, and Crespo's face was full of loneliness. How annoyed he was that his foot was weak when he shot just now. Crespo would never waste such an opportunity.
He is no stranger to the booing of the home team fans in his ears. Since arriving at Chelsea, he has never really won the hearts of the fans. Nelli is gone, and in the mind of the current head coach Mourinho, Crespo has never been his first choice.
Speaking of which, Crespo's story can be written as a tragic drama. Last season, Crespo was loaned to AC Milan. He helped Milan reach the Champions League final and scored two goals in the final. The ball helped AC Milan lead Liverpool 3:0, and it was about to fulfill its long-cherished wish of standing on the top of Europe, but encountered the craziest night in the history of the Champions League!
And after the Champions League final, AC Milan did not reach an agreement with Crespo on the transfer with Chelsea. In this way, the Argentine star can only stay at Stamford Bridge. Grandma doesn't love the 'situation anymore.
***********
On the sidelines, although the first half of the game was not over yet, Essien, who was slightly injured, was already warming up.
Seeing that Essien was warming up, Crespo suddenly had a bad feeling, 'I guess he will replace me—'.The Argentine star gave a long sigh, turned his head and ran back towards the midfield.Manchester United attacked.
In fact, Essien is just doing warm-up activities, not going to play. The 'big buffalo' is injured, and the team doctor is not sure whether Essien can play. Now let Essien warm up for a while and see how he feels.
Of course, if Essien's physical condition is good, in the second half of the game, Mourinho will definitely send this favorite player who can attack and defend.Crespo and Drogba's frontcourt partner, he is not very satisfied after all.
The Chelsea head coach didn't know that asking Essien to warm up would cause such great confusion to Crespo, uh... Even if he knew, Mourinho might decisively replace Crespo.
***********
Taibi picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The game was almost 10 minutes old. The speed of the game's offensive and defensive transitions was indeed too fast. Everyone forgot the time. The Sky TV The gold medal commentator feels very refreshed now. It is really a pleasure to watch this game. Being able to comment on such a wonderful game is the favorite of every commentator. This is simply the climax of the commentator's favorite.
"Chelsea is still 0-1 behind Manchester United. Manchester United surprised everyone. They played very tenaciously. The scene was not ugly at all. The game was beautiful. You even forget that Manchester United has an important game in the middle of next week!"
After Li Rui received O'Shea's header, he stopped the ball, turned around, and got rid of it in one go. After he dribbled the ball for a certain distance, he pretended to pass the ball to Rooney, shaking Ferreira to the ground and tackled the ball. Li Rui turned the football horizontally With a pull, after gaining the angle of the shot, it was a long-range shot directly, and the football flew towards the goal like a fired shell. Facing such a powerful long-range shot, Cech did not dare to be careless, and single-handedly kicked the football , football out of the baseline, corner kick.
"Shooting - Cech threw it! Li Rui was as active as taking medicine - er, of course, we are just joking, not to say that he really took medicine - after the silence in the opening, Scored that museum goal that gave United the lead and after that goal Lee was even better, looking in great form and still trying to find his chances!"
"Lee said before the game that he would help the team compete for the championship. He is indeed doing it. There is also a little story. Today is April 28, which is also the birthday of Li's girlfriend Jessica Alba. I believe that Li's birthday gift just now must have satisfied his girlfriend." Lineker said with a smile.
'That's right! ' In front of the TV, Jessica waved her small fists with a happy look on her face.She is indeed very satisfied!
***********
A corner kick was taken, O'Shea hit the football but did not have the strength to do so, Petr Cech hugged the football firmly.
***********
Ferguson is quite satisfied with Li Rui's performance. Li Rui's state is not the best this season, but, obviously, Manchester United's No. 10 player is full of fighting spirit. This will determine whether Manchester United can win Chelsea. It is very important to occupy a favorable position in the competition.
Joe Cole received a pass from Robben, O'Shea immediately came up to press, Chelsea No. 10 checked that there was no pass line, at this time, Crespo asked for the ball in front, Joe Cole tiptoed to challenge the football When it came out, O'Shea was prepared for it, he jumped up and kicked the football out.
After Ryan Giggs got the ball, the Welsh veteran burst out with fire-like passion. He turned around and ran forward with the ball. In the first kick, the football reached Cristiano Ronaldo's feet, Giggs himself continued to advance, Gallas immediately stuck to Cristiano Ronaldo, and Makelele continued to follow Giggs' footsteps.
…………
Cristiano Ronaldo faced Gallas, Manchester United's No. 7 dribbled a few times in a row, flicked the football to the left, and then pulled it back. At this time, he looked up to observe the situation in the frontcourt. He saw Li Rui raised his hand .
Cristiano Ronaldo immediately sent a ground ball, and the football rolled past Gallas' feet. Li Rui caught the ball, flicked and pulled it, and then turned around. He didn't dribble the ball immediately, but stopped in place , Waiting for Lampard to come forward.
Just when Lampard rushed up, Li Rui started to move. He shifted the football to his right foot with his left foot, and then with a flick of his ankle, the football flew diagonally to the side like a whip, where Giger After Si retreated, a header was ferried and Rooney got the ball.
Manchester United's triangle attack tore through Chelsea's defense, and harsh boos sounded from the stands at Stamford Bridge.
…………
After Rooney got the ball, he flicked the football to the right, and then accelerated himself to pass the ball. He passed directly from Ferreira's side, and then swung his right foot.
"Stop him!" Cech saw clearly in front of the goal that this was going to be a long-range shot, and he yelled at his defenders to block it.
Carvalho rushed to Rooney without hesitation.
The Manchester United fans in front of the TV were going crazy. They saw that their little fat man seemed to be possessed by Ronaldinho. False action, which made Carvalho fell to the ground immediately to tackle the fool. Seeing that Carvalho was fooled, Rooney immediately buckled the football to the left, and then dodged his body to avoid Carvalho's tackle.
…………
On the other side, Terry was entangled with Li Rui, and the captain of Chelsea was hesitating whether to ignore Li Rui and defend Rooney. At this moment, Rooney moved the football forward and glanced at the goal. Petr Cech raised his foot and volleyed. The power of this shot was great. Although Cech tried his best to catch the ball, he still couldn't touch the football, and the football hit the net! !
"Goooooooooooooooal!!! Let's cheer for Rooney! It's a fantastic goal! Rooney told everyone that he can also score goals in a row! 2:0! Before the end of the first half, Manchester United leads Chelsea 2-0! This is really the most critical goal at the most critical moment!" Taibi shouted excitedly.
In fact, although many fans in England don't like Manchester United, most fans still don't want to see Chelsea win the championship. After all, Chelsea was the Premier League champion last season. If they defend the title again this season, aesthetic fatigue will inevitably occur!
Of course, neutral fans are not supporting Manchester United to win the championship. Anyway, non-Manchester United or Chelsea fans will be happiest if the suspense of the championship is maintained until the final round.
***********
After scoring the goal, the little fat man ran all the way to the stands where the Manchester United fans were. He tore his jersey vigorously. Perhaps Nike could consider asking the little fat man to do an advertisement, testing the flexibility of Nike's jersey is absolutely superb.
Li Rui hugged Rooney all at once. He yelled into his partner's ear, venting his excitement. The goal at this time was really wonderful. At this time, it was already the first half In the stoppage time of the game, 2:0, extending the lead to two goals is quite useful for stabilizing everyone's morale.
On the sidelines, Ferguson was already excitedly hugging his assistant coach Queiroz. Just now, Ferguson was still thinking about how to arrange tactics in the second half in the case of 1:0. However, now it seems that the old Scottish man needs to reconsider, 2: If it is 0, Manchester United will be more confident. Can some of the main players rest for the second round of the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona in the middle of next week?
…………
"Oh, hell!" When Mourinho saw Rooney scoring the football, his face was full of haze, and the camera focused on him tightly, trying to find the fans from the face of "the most special one" topic of interest.
Mourinho's face was serious. After a while, he turned his head and said a word to the players on the bench. Then, everyone saw that the players on Chelsea's bench got up and warmed up behind the goal. .
At this time, the referee Webber also blew the whistle for the end of the first half of the game. The sky above Stamford Bridge was full of harsh boos from Chelsea fans. The inflatable champion model, this time, this model is so frustrating and dazzling.
Of course, Chelsea fans are not completely desperate. After all, there is still the second half of the game. This season, Chelsea once scored four goals in a row when they fell behind 0:3. Therefore, the fans have not fully understood the team's second half. give up.
***********
When the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, Mourinho walked towards the player tunnel without looking back. The camera followed him all the time, and everyone saw how gloomy the face of the Chelsea coach was.
0:2 behind, the situation is not optimistic. Chelsea, which has led for a season, may even be overthrown from the leader's throne for the first time, and eventually lose the league championship. This makes the players very depressed. No one speaks. Chelsea The players all walked silently towards the player tunnel.
However, the players on Chelsea's bench did not go to the locker room. All the substitute players stayed on the field to warm up. This is what Mourinho said to the bench after Rooney scored just now. Substitutions can be made at any time.
This also reflects from the side that Mourinho is dissatisfied with the performance of some players in the team's first half.
…………
Ferguson first praised the team's performance in the first half. The 2:0 lead made the atmosphere in the dressing room of the visiting team very good. The Manchester United players were also talking and laughing. Although the game is not over yet, the Manchester United players also Confident, with a two-goal lead this season, he has never been chased back by his opponent.
Thinking of the hard work of a season, after this game, they may have received a huge return. The players are very excited, especially Rooney, Li Rui, Fletcher, Olympiad and Olympiad who have never tasted the taste of a league championship. Xie, as well as Evra, Vidic and other young players, seemed extremely happy.
Queiroz frowned, and he reminded Ferguson in a low voice that the team was too blindly optimistic. Although it was 2:0, the game is not over yet, there is still half of the game, and anything can happen.
Ferguson also felt that the players were a little too happy. He clapped his hands and focused everyone's attention, "2:0 is a good thing, but the game is not over yet. The second half will be even more difficult. No one wants 2:0. :3 lead and there will be a bad result - think about last season's Champions League final, when AC Milan led 0:[-] at halftime, they were [-]% more excited than you!"
Uh - Hearing Ferguson say this may not make everyone nervous, but of course the effect is still there. After all, the players were very clear about the Istanbul night in the Champions League final last season. A living negative teaching material!
Presumably, Ancelotti would be quite depressed if he knew that other teams had used this incident to warn their players.
***********
The atmosphere in the dressing room of the visiting team was good, even a little too optimistic, while the dressing room of the home team at Stamford Bridge was a bit gloomy.
It only needs to win Manchester United to win the league championship trophy at home one round ahead of schedule. Even if they don't win, they only need a draw, and Chelsea can take advantage of two points to win the championship at the beginning of the last round of the league. The initiative is in my own hands, but now, the score is Chelsea 0:2 behind. This is a huge contrast to the optimistic estimate before the game, which makes Chelsea players a little frustrated, even a little desperate.
This is also where Chelsea has won a Premier League championship, but it has not been considered a giant. Compared with traditional giants such as Manchester United, AC Milan, Juventus, and Bayern Munich, in such a crucial game, especially In an unfavorable situation, Chelsea still lacks the background and confidence of a strong team, and it is easy to collapse at a critical moment.
***********
However, the Chelsea people should feel fortunate that they have a Portuguese head coach named Mourinho, who once led Porto to stage a dark horse miracle in the history of the Champions League. When the Chelsea players were a little frustrated and silent, Mourinho never broke the oppressive atmosphere, and the 'Magic Bird' was scratching around on the tactical board.
Finally, Mourinho hung the tactical board on the wall, and then said nothing, gloomy eyes swept over every player, and everyone felt a little shivering when he was swept by his eyes. It's even more depressing.
…………
"I have to say——" Mourinho's words broke the silence, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the silence just now was too depressing, "Your performance in the first half was—worse than shit! Idiots Shit! What place is this? This is Stamford Bridge! What day is it? April 28th! What day is it? This is the day you're going to take out the bloody Manchester United to win the trophy! But now, look With the current score, all I can say is, 'shit is worse'!"
No one dared to speak. Although they were scolded, maybe Chelsea's performance in the first half was not so bad, or it was just that Manchester United were lucky enough to score more efficiently. However, the current score is that Chelsea are 0:2 behind Manchester United. This is indisputable!This is the greatest truth!No one dared to say anything!
Seeing that the scolding was almost over, Mourinho clapped his hands again, squinting at his players in a mocking tone, "Maybe, your poor performance in the first half, especially when the first half is about to end, It should be commendable."
"Boss! The championship belongs to Chelsea! No one can take it away! Let's see our performance in the second half!" Terry stood up. As the captain, he had to stand up. Terry had something to say, but he didn't say it yet. Come out, he wanted to say, 'Please don't be so sarcastic about us' - but, Terry is indeed not yet a bloody hunk, he swallowed and gave a gloomy Mourinho a look , I still retracted that half of the sentence in my stomach.
…………
"Very good." Mourinho snapped his fingers, "I look forward to your performance in the second half!"
"The loss of the goal at the last moment of the first half is not a bad thing." Mourinho said, just when everyone thought he would continue to taunt, the Portuguese smiled conspiratorially, "1: With a score of 0, Manchester United will definitely be more difficult to deal with after the start of the second half, and with a score of 2:0, Manchester United's thoughts began to increase-don't forget, they still have a semi-final against Barcelona ..."
In the locker room of the home team, the Chelsea players looked at their head coach, no matter how they looked, they looked like a wizard exuding a conspiracy-but, this feeling made the Chelsea players feel confident.
This is also recognized by most players in the teams that Mourinho has coached. Many players have described that the Portuguese coach has a fascinating and convincing magic...
***********
After the start of the second half, Manchester United almost expanded the score again, which shocked the Chelsea fans into a cold sweat.
Chelsea, who pressed heavily, was counterattacked by Manchester United. After Robben's pass was pushed out by Ferdinand, Fletcher drove the football to the frontcourt with a big foot. After that, he dribbled into the penalty area with the ball.
Terry immediately came out to intercept.
Facing the captain of Chelsea, Li Rui suddenly stopped suddenly, then swung his right foot towards the football and made a shooting motion! !
Terry quickly jumped up to intercept, but Li Rui's shot was a fake move. Seeing that Terry jumped up, Li Rui stopped his kick towards the football, kicked it falsely, and knocked the football from behind him. To the right, while on one side of the body, turned and chased after the football.
Cruyff turned around!
…………
Stamford Bridge booed loudly, and the commentators shouted excitedly, applauding Li Rui's action!
However, Li Rui's shot was missed by Petr Cech, who stretched his leg and missed the post. Otherwise, if this attack turned into a goal, it would be another wonderful goal!
Seeing Cech save Li Rui's shot, Ferguson spread his hand regretfully. Of course, he knew that if it was 3:0, Manchester United could already focus on the match against Barcelona; on the other side, Mourinho jumped up all of a sudden. When Li Rui shot the goal, Chelsea's head coach also felt cold. If the goal was scored, even if Manchester United started to rotate to save energy, it would not be easy for Chelsea to come back.
Mourinho called out Essien to the bench, telling Essien to get ready to play. When Chelsea is pressing hard now, they need a player with good offensive and defensive skills like 'Buffalo' to stabilize the situation on the field.
…………
Giggs took the corner, Cristiano Ronaldo snatched the point, his head flick just wide, once again startled a little commotion in the stands at Stamford Bridge.
dead ball.
Immediately, Chelsea made the first substitution of the game, Essien came off the bench, and he replaced the Argentine star Crespo.
On the other hand, Ferguson also began to make constant substitutions. First, Cassano replaced Rooney, who performed well in this game. The little fat man is in good condition now, but Ferguson will let Rooney retain his energy for the league in the middle of next week.And because Cassano played the Champions League on behalf of Roma in the first half of the season, he is not eligible to represent Manchester United in the Champions League, so there is no Champions League task, so he can fight in this game.
In the 63rd minute of the game, Ferguson made another substitution. He replaced Cristiano Ronaldo with Park Ji-sung. Now, in addition to the veteran Ryan Giggs, Ferguson, O'Shea, and Park Ji-sung are all in the midfield of Manchester United. There are engineering players, and it is obvious that Manchester United will adopt a defensive posture.
Ferguson was also hesitating whether to replace Li Rui, but in the end Ferguson decided to let Li Rui stay on the court for the time being. In comparison, although Li Rui is an Asian player, his physical condition is one of the best in the Manchester United team Yes, you must know that Li Rui's testosterone index shocked the Manchester United team doctors. Of course, Li Rui's physical fitness is relative. It doesn't mean that he can't run to death, but his physical fitness is better than other players.
…………
Seeing that Manchester United replaced Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney in succession, on the other side of Chelsea's bench, Mourinho's mouth raised a hidden smile.
His judgment is completely correct, and he believes that even the players who have not been replaced will definitely start to be more or less distracted from the game against Barcelona - all this is only because the current score on the field is 2:0!
Sometimes, the mentality of the players is really subtle, and an excellent head coach who can even become a wily man is to seize this momentary change. Although Mourinho can be regarded as the head coach representative of the young school, but , the Portuguese are definitely not rookies, but they are very difficult to deal with!
***********
In the 67th minute of the game, the situation on the court changed suddenly.
Makelele cut off Park Ji-sung's ground ball to O'Shea in midfield, Chelsea launched an attack, the ball reached Joe Cole's feet, Chelsea's No. 10 handed the ball to Essien, the big buffalo split the ball, Ronaldo Ben retreated to catch the ball, and Fletcher immediately came up to intercept.
Robben controlled the football under his feet, and he looked at Fletcher who came up to intercept him.He noticed that perhaps because he was afraid of breaking through, Fletcher deliberately kept his distance.
There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Robben's mouth, and then his upper body leaned forward. Fletcher thought that Robben was really going to break through, so he immediately shifted his focus, ready to grab at any time.
Robben was just a feint. The Dutchman raised his right foot and flicked the football to the right. Fletcher decided in his heart that Robben was just a fake move, and he still didn't make a tackle. At this time, the success rate is relatively high.
However, to Fletcher's surprise, Robben didn't intend to break through. The Dutchman then kicked his left foot on the ground, raised his foot again, and suddenly volleyed vigorously!
Fletcher was taken aback, and quickly stretched out his foot to block, but his movement was still half a beat slow, and he couldn't block the football.
…………
The shot was so sudden that Fletcher's reaction was half a beat slow. On the one hand, Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar did not expect that Robben would shoot from a distance of about 35 meters from the goal, and Robben shot. At that time, Fletcher went up to block, which caused Van der Sar to be disturbed by Fletcher's action. By the time he reacted and rushed towards the football, it was already too late. The football drew an obvious arc, from Van der Sar Desa passed between his hands and flew into the goal behind him!
Chelsea lead 1:0!
Cheers from Stamford Bridge!
"GOOOOOAL!!! Arjen - Arjen Robben! Robben! Fantastic shot from long distance! It's a diamond important goal! Chelsea scored in the 68th minute of the game! GOOOOOAL! It's beautiful , The Dutchman's sudden long-range shot caught the entire Manchester United defense off guard! Chelsea 1:2 Manchester United! Well done! They see hope! The game is getting more and more exciting!"
***********
Indeed, as the commentator said, Robben's goal is really important to Chelsea. They only need to score one more goal to tie the score, and Chelsea can take the initiative to win the championship in their own hands. hands, and if the score can be reversed, today will be Chelsea's coronation day!
The entire Chelsea bench was also full of joy, where they were dancing excitedly, waving coats, towels, waving everything that could be waved, while the stands at Stamford Bridge were already full of cheering blue ocean.
Different from the ecstasy of the team members, Mourinho was very calm at this time. The camera was aimed at him. The Portuguese sat on the chair very calmly, without even moving his body, tilting his head, very serious ' chewing gum.
…………
On the other side, Ferguson stood up. Obviously he was very angry about the conceded goal. He rushed to the sidelines and shouted: "Pay attention! Damn! Darren! What are you doing?!! You Fool!"
Ferguson's voice is very loud, and because he understands the habit of "swearing" by the Manchester United coach, when Manchester United lost the ball, as soon as they saw Ferguson rushing to the sidelines, the well-prepared director aimed at the Manchester United team. The bench, and the fans in front of the TV were also fortunate to be able to clearly hear Ferguson scolding Fletcher.
"This is really—Sir Alex Ferguson is still the same." Lineker clicked his tongue twice, saying this.
Fletcher knew he was wrong. He lowered his head and looked at the ground. At this time, the Scottish international was extremely depressed. He could even imagine that if Manchester United had a bad result in this game, he would Surrounded by overwhelming criticism, he will undoubtedly be considered the culprit for Manchester United's loss of the league title!
Ferguson naturally didn't know about his scolding, but it made Fletcher have such an idea. If he knew, the old Scottish man would definitely not mind going up and kicking this compatriot to the ground, and then kicking him to the ground. reserve team's...
…………
In the 68th minute of the game, Chelsea 1:2 Manchester United, the 2005-2006 Premier League championship competition has entered the most intense time.
"Perhaps, at this time, Ferguson should be most thankful that he didn't replace Li..." Taibi said, looking at Li Rui with his hands on his hips on the court and looking at the sky.
Manchester United coach Ferguson did not replace Li Rui due to hesitation for a while, but what impact will Li Rui, who stayed on the field, have on the results of this game and this season?
***********
PS: Tomorrow should be a climax.
(End of this chapter)
Mourinho looked at the kid who was celebrating a goal, shook his head with a wry smile, and was scored by Manchester United. Although he was annoyed with this goal, Mourinho didn't know who he should get angry at. The ball is indeed too beautiful. When Terry was broken through, everyone was shocked. It turns out that extraordinary people can be so chic.
Mourinho glanced at Manchester United's coaching bench and cursed: "Damn it!" He didn't know whether he should envy the luck of that old Scottish man. Originally, this talented young man should be wearing a blue jersey, but it turned out that Li Rui But he chose to join Manchester United.
…………
"This is Lee's No.20 eight goals in the league. Now, Lee and Didier Drogba are both 28 goals in the scorer list. Behind them is Arsenal's Thierry Henry. The number of goals scored by the French star is 26 goals. Ball, the Arsenal game will be played tomorrow, and now, the competition for the Premier League Golden Boot is more likely to be between Drogba and Lee, and now, both players are on the court."
"Haha, that's right, I believe that Lee's goal will make Drogba full of fighting spirit. The Ivorians are looking forward to the league's golden boot, and they will definitely not just sit and watch Lee snatch the golden boot at Stamford Bridge!"
***********
The game restarted, and after Manchester United took the lead, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The Manchester United players were also excited, and began to really look forward to the league championship.
It is even more impossible for Chelsea, who are playing at home, not to attack and continue to be beaten passively. Chelsea must score goals as soon as possible in order to equalize the score as soon as possible. This is the Stamford Bridge Stadium. The whole Chelsea team is looking forward to this game. Can beat Manchester United, Won the league championship trophy one round ahead of time, such a championship is perfect!
However, Li Rui's goal gave Chelsea a head-on blow. They finally realized that the league championship is not within easy reach. If one is not careful, even if the ship capsizes in the gutter, it is not a big accident. Besides, Manchester United's The strength is also there, Chelsea is really not sure of winning.
This kind of direct key duel can almost be regarded as a cup final, it is special!
************
After taking the lead, the Manchester United team was not conservative, did not deliberately retract the defense line, and still insisted on a more aggressive style of play.
In order to equalize the score as soon as possible, Chelsea naturally held high the banner of offense. For a while, the two sides fought against each other on the field, and the transition between offense and defense was extremely fast. Or waves of cheer.
"The game went on to the 31st minute and the score was still 1-0. Manchester United led away. With Lee's goal, Manchester United took the lead at Stamford Bridge. If the game ends with this score, Manchester United will win. With a win worth six points, the points will rise to the top for the first time - of course, there is still an hour to go, but there is no doubt that this is a great game - a great game requires both sides A joint effort. After leading, Manchester United was not conservative, and Chelsea also set off a frenzy of attack in order to score goals as soon as possible. The two teams set off a rare confrontation."
"That's right, this kind of game is the favorite game of the fans. For this game, the fans who came to the scene must be worth the ticket price. Of course, Chelsea fans will not be satisfied with the current score. They are eager for victory. To win the league title after this game."
***********
"- Robben! He's dribbling, beautiful! He's dribbling past... the pass? It's a shot! A shot! A little over the bar! What a pity!... Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled in midfield, his Dazzling technique at the feet! SUPER! Passed Makelele!! Still dribbling, he - shot?! Shot! Beautiful lob, Petr Cech's concentration, corner kick! Manchester United's corner kick!"
Taibi took this opportunity to take a sip of water. The offensive and defensive transitions between the two teams were so fast that the commentators were a little out of breath. This side just attacked the opponent's penalty area, and immediately a counterattack came, and they had to return to defense immediately. The fast pace of the game was a bit dizzying.
"I would say this is the best game in the Premier League this season. There was only one goal, but beautiful scenes, fast-paced game process, sharp attacking - great game!"
When the commentator was applauding the excitement of the game, he also had some doubts in his heart. The camera turned around on the Manchester United coaching bench. Ferguson was sitting on the coaching bench with a normal expression.
What everyone is wondering is, is Manchester United really planning to fight like this with Chelsea?Really don't plan to save energy for the Champions League semi-finals in the middle of next week?Really 'indifferent' to the game against Barcelona?
This is not in line with the personality of the old Scotch man at all!
***********
Manchester United's corner is taken.
This is a tactical corner kick. Giggs knocked the football to Cristiano Ronaldo. After receiving the ball, the latter pretended to take the ball and turned around. Immediately raised the left foot and hoisted the football into the penalty area!
"Tactical corner! Beautiful, Cristiano Ronaldo's technique is a treat... Giggs! Pass! Cross! In the penalty area - Lee header! Saved by Cech, still corner !Cristiano Ronaldo takes the corner! God, Rooney jumped so high, header! Right in Cech's arms... Counter attack! Counter attack!"
***********
Cech ran two steps with the football in his arms, and immediately launched a fast break with a throw. In a blink of an eye, Chelsea had already passed halftime.
Joe Cole handed the ball to Crespo, the Argentinian star passed the ball to Robben, who himself ran towards the penalty area, the Dutch 'Peter Pan' dribbled the ball, beautifully from Evra and Vidic The time passed, and Fletcher immediately came up to defend. Robben's pass hit Fletcher's studs, and rolled to the left side of the penalty area. His feet were a bit unprepared. He lifted his foot and shot, but the football did not exert strength. Van der Sar held the football firmly.
…………
When the football fell to Crespo's feet, the entire Stamford Bridge stadium boiled. However, the quality of Crespo's shot was really poor, and the blue ocean immediately booed a lot.
The camera was aimed at the Argentine star, and Crespo's face was full of loneliness. How annoyed he was that his foot was weak when he shot just now. Crespo would never waste such an opportunity.
He is no stranger to the booing of the home team fans in his ears. Since arriving at Chelsea, he has never really won the hearts of the fans. Nelli is gone, and in the mind of the current head coach Mourinho, Crespo has never been his first choice.
Speaking of which, Crespo's story can be written as a tragic drama. Last season, Crespo was loaned to AC Milan. He helped Milan reach the Champions League final and scored two goals in the final. The ball helped AC Milan lead Liverpool 3:0, and it was about to fulfill its long-cherished wish of standing on the top of Europe, but encountered the craziest night in the history of the Champions League!
And after the Champions League final, AC Milan did not reach an agreement with Crespo on the transfer with Chelsea. In this way, the Argentine star can only stay at Stamford Bridge. Grandma doesn't love the 'situation anymore.
***********
On the sidelines, although the first half of the game was not over yet, Essien, who was slightly injured, was already warming up.
Seeing that Essien was warming up, Crespo suddenly had a bad feeling, 'I guess he will replace me—'.The Argentine star gave a long sigh, turned his head and ran back towards the midfield.Manchester United attacked.
In fact, Essien is just doing warm-up activities, not going to play. The 'big buffalo' is injured, and the team doctor is not sure whether Essien can play. Now let Essien warm up for a while and see how he feels.
Of course, if Essien's physical condition is good, in the second half of the game, Mourinho will definitely send this favorite player who can attack and defend.Crespo and Drogba's frontcourt partner, he is not very satisfied after all.
The Chelsea head coach didn't know that asking Essien to warm up would cause such great confusion to Crespo, uh... Even if he knew, Mourinho might decisively replace Crespo.
***********
Taibi picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The game was almost 10 minutes old. The speed of the game's offensive and defensive transitions was indeed too fast. Everyone forgot the time. The Sky TV The gold medal commentator feels very refreshed now. It is really a pleasure to watch this game. Being able to comment on such a wonderful game is the favorite of every commentator. This is simply the climax of the commentator's favorite.
"Chelsea is still 0-1 behind Manchester United. Manchester United surprised everyone. They played very tenaciously. The scene was not ugly at all. The game was beautiful. You even forget that Manchester United has an important game in the middle of next week!"
After Li Rui received O'Shea's header, he stopped the ball, turned around, and got rid of it in one go. After he dribbled the ball for a certain distance, he pretended to pass the ball to Rooney, shaking Ferreira to the ground and tackled the ball. Li Rui turned the football horizontally With a pull, after gaining the angle of the shot, it was a long-range shot directly, and the football flew towards the goal like a fired shell. Facing such a powerful long-range shot, Cech did not dare to be careless, and single-handedly kicked the football , football out of the baseline, corner kick.
"Shooting - Cech threw it! Li Rui was as active as taking medicine - er, of course, we are just joking, not to say that he really took medicine - after the silence in the opening, Scored that museum goal that gave United the lead and after that goal Lee was even better, looking in great form and still trying to find his chances!"
"Lee said before the game that he would help the team compete for the championship. He is indeed doing it. There is also a little story. Today is April 28, which is also the birthday of Li's girlfriend Jessica Alba. I believe that Li's birthday gift just now must have satisfied his girlfriend." Lineker said with a smile.
'That's right! ' In front of the TV, Jessica waved her small fists with a happy look on her face.She is indeed very satisfied!
***********
A corner kick was taken, O'Shea hit the football but did not have the strength to do so, Petr Cech hugged the football firmly.
***********
Ferguson is quite satisfied with Li Rui's performance. Li Rui's state is not the best this season, but, obviously, Manchester United's No. 10 player is full of fighting spirit. This will determine whether Manchester United can win Chelsea. It is very important to occupy a favorable position in the competition.
Joe Cole received a pass from Robben, O'Shea immediately came up to press, Chelsea No. 10 checked that there was no pass line, at this time, Crespo asked for the ball in front, Joe Cole tiptoed to challenge the football When it came out, O'Shea was prepared for it, he jumped up and kicked the football out.
After Ryan Giggs got the ball, the Welsh veteran burst out with fire-like passion. He turned around and ran forward with the ball. In the first kick, the football reached Cristiano Ronaldo's feet, Giggs himself continued to advance, Gallas immediately stuck to Cristiano Ronaldo, and Makelele continued to follow Giggs' footsteps.
…………
Cristiano Ronaldo faced Gallas, Manchester United's No. 7 dribbled a few times in a row, flicked the football to the left, and then pulled it back. At this time, he looked up to observe the situation in the frontcourt. He saw Li Rui raised his hand .
Cristiano Ronaldo immediately sent a ground ball, and the football rolled past Gallas' feet. Li Rui caught the ball, flicked and pulled it, and then turned around. He didn't dribble the ball immediately, but stopped in place , Waiting for Lampard to come forward.
Just when Lampard rushed up, Li Rui started to move. He shifted the football to his right foot with his left foot, and then with a flick of his ankle, the football flew diagonally to the side like a whip, where Giger After Si retreated, a header was ferried and Rooney got the ball.
Manchester United's triangle attack tore through Chelsea's defense, and harsh boos sounded from the stands at Stamford Bridge.
…………
After Rooney got the ball, he flicked the football to the right, and then accelerated himself to pass the ball. He passed directly from Ferreira's side, and then swung his right foot.
"Stop him!" Cech saw clearly in front of the goal that this was going to be a long-range shot, and he yelled at his defenders to block it.
Carvalho rushed to Rooney without hesitation.
The Manchester United fans in front of the TV were going crazy. They saw that their little fat man seemed to be possessed by Ronaldinho. False action, which made Carvalho fell to the ground immediately to tackle the fool. Seeing that Carvalho was fooled, Rooney immediately buckled the football to the left, and then dodged his body to avoid Carvalho's tackle.
…………
On the other side, Terry was entangled with Li Rui, and the captain of Chelsea was hesitating whether to ignore Li Rui and defend Rooney. At this moment, Rooney moved the football forward and glanced at the goal. Petr Cech raised his foot and volleyed. The power of this shot was great. Although Cech tried his best to catch the ball, he still couldn't touch the football, and the football hit the net! !
"Goooooooooooooooal!!! Let's cheer for Rooney! It's a fantastic goal! Rooney told everyone that he can also score goals in a row! 2:0! Before the end of the first half, Manchester United leads Chelsea 2-0! This is really the most critical goal at the most critical moment!" Taibi shouted excitedly.
In fact, although many fans in England don't like Manchester United, most fans still don't want to see Chelsea win the championship. After all, Chelsea was the Premier League champion last season. If they defend the title again this season, aesthetic fatigue will inevitably occur!
Of course, neutral fans are not supporting Manchester United to win the championship. Anyway, non-Manchester United or Chelsea fans will be happiest if the suspense of the championship is maintained until the final round.
***********
After scoring the goal, the little fat man ran all the way to the stands where the Manchester United fans were. He tore his jersey vigorously. Perhaps Nike could consider asking the little fat man to do an advertisement, testing the flexibility of Nike's jersey is absolutely superb.
Li Rui hugged Rooney all at once. He yelled into his partner's ear, venting his excitement. The goal at this time was really wonderful. At this time, it was already the first half In the stoppage time of the game, 2:0, extending the lead to two goals is quite useful for stabilizing everyone's morale.
On the sidelines, Ferguson was already excitedly hugging his assistant coach Queiroz. Just now, Ferguson was still thinking about how to arrange tactics in the second half in the case of 1:0. However, now it seems that the old Scottish man needs to reconsider, 2: If it is 0, Manchester United will be more confident. Can some of the main players rest for the second round of the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona in the middle of next week?
…………
"Oh, hell!" When Mourinho saw Rooney scoring the football, his face was full of haze, and the camera focused on him tightly, trying to find the fans from the face of "the most special one" topic of interest.
Mourinho's face was serious. After a while, he turned his head and said a word to the players on the bench. Then, everyone saw that the players on Chelsea's bench got up and warmed up behind the goal. .
At this time, the referee Webber also blew the whistle for the end of the first half of the game. The sky above Stamford Bridge was full of harsh boos from Chelsea fans. The inflatable champion model, this time, this model is so frustrating and dazzling.
Of course, Chelsea fans are not completely desperate. After all, there is still the second half of the game. This season, Chelsea once scored four goals in a row when they fell behind 0:3. Therefore, the fans have not fully understood the team's second half. give up.
***********
When the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, Mourinho walked towards the player tunnel without looking back. The camera followed him all the time, and everyone saw how gloomy the face of the Chelsea coach was.
0:2 behind, the situation is not optimistic. Chelsea, which has led for a season, may even be overthrown from the leader's throne for the first time, and eventually lose the league championship. This makes the players very depressed. No one speaks. Chelsea The players all walked silently towards the player tunnel.
However, the players on Chelsea's bench did not go to the locker room. All the substitute players stayed on the field to warm up. This is what Mourinho said to the bench after Rooney scored just now. Substitutions can be made at any time.
This also reflects from the side that Mourinho is dissatisfied with the performance of some players in the team's first half.
…………
Ferguson first praised the team's performance in the first half. The 2:0 lead made the atmosphere in the dressing room of the visiting team very good. The Manchester United players were also talking and laughing. Although the game is not over yet, the Manchester United players also Confident, with a two-goal lead this season, he has never been chased back by his opponent.
Thinking of the hard work of a season, after this game, they may have received a huge return. The players are very excited, especially Rooney, Li Rui, Fletcher, Olympiad and Olympiad who have never tasted the taste of a league championship. Xie, as well as Evra, Vidic and other young players, seemed extremely happy.
Queiroz frowned, and he reminded Ferguson in a low voice that the team was too blindly optimistic. Although it was 2:0, the game is not over yet, there is still half of the game, and anything can happen.
Ferguson also felt that the players were a little too happy. He clapped his hands and focused everyone's attention, "2:0 is a good thing, but the game is not over yet. The second half will be even more difficult. No one wants 2:0. :3 lead and there will be a bad result - think about last season's Champions League final, when AC Milan led 0:[-] at halftime, they were [-]% more excited than you!"
Uh - Hearing Ferguson say this may not make everyone nervous, but of course the effect is still there. After all, the players were very clear about the Istanbul night in the Champions League final last season. A living negative teaching material!
Presumably, Ancelotti would be quite depressed if he knew that other teams had used this incident to warn their players.
***********
The atmosphere in the dressing room of the visiting team was good, even a little too optimistic, while the dressing room of the home team at Stamford Bridge was a bit gloomy.
It only needs to win Manchester United to win the league championship trophy at home one round ahead of schedule. Even if they don't win, they only need a draw, and Chelsea can take advantage of two points to win the championship at the beginning of the last round of the league. The initiative is in my own hands, but now, the score is Chelsea 0:2 behind. This is a huge contrast to the optimistic estimate before the game, which makes Chelsea players a little frustrated, even a little desperate.
This is also where Chelsea has won a Premier League championship, but it has not been considered a giant. Compared with traditional giants such as Manchester United, AC Milan, Juventus, and Bayern Munich, in such a crucial game, especially In an unfavorable situation, Chelsea still lacks the background and confidence of a strong team, and it is easy to collapse at a critical moment.
***********
However, the Chelsea people should feel fortunate that they have a Portuguese head coach named Mourinho, who once led Porto to stage a dark horse miracle in the history of the Champions League. When the Chelsea players were a little frustrated and silent, Mourinho never broke the oppressive atmosphere, and the 'Magic Bird' was scratching around on the tactical board.
Finally, Mourinho hung the tactical board on the wall, and then said nothing, gloomy eyes swept over every player, and everyone felt a little shivering when he was swept by his eyes. It's even more depressing.
…………
"I have to say——" Mourinho's words broke the silence, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the silence just now was too depressing, "Your performance in the first half was—worse than shit! Idiots Shit! What place is this? This is Stamford Bridge! What day is it? April 28th! What day is it? This is the day you're going to take out the bloody Manchester United to win the trophy! But now, look With the current score, all I can say is, 'shit is worse'!"
No one dared to speak. Although they were scolded, maybe Chelsea's performance in the first half was not so bad, or it was just that Manchester United were lucky enough to score more efficiently. However, the current score is that Chelsea are 0:2 behind Manchester United. This is indisputable!This is the greatest truth!No one dared to say anything!
Seeing that the scolding was almost over, Mourinho clapped his hands again, squinting at his players in a mocking tone, "Maybe, your poor performance in the first half, especially when the first half is about to end, It should be commendable."
"Boss! The championship belongs to Chelsea! No one can take it away! Let's see our performance in the second half!" Terry stood up. As the captain, he had to stand up. Terry had something to say, but he didn't say it yet. Come out, he wanted to say, 'Please don't be so sarcastic about us' - but, Terry is indeed not yet a bloody hunk, he swallowed and gave a gloomy Mourinho a look , I still retracted that half of the sentence in my stomach.
…………
"Very good." Mourinho snapped his fingers, "I look forward to your performance in the second half!"
"The loss of the goal at the last moment of the first half is not a bad thing." Mourinho said, just when everyone thought he would continue to taunt, the Portuguese smiled conspiratorially, "1: With a score of 0, Manchester United will definitely be more difficult to deal with after the start of the second half, and with a score of 2:0, Manchester United's thoughts began to increase-don't forget, they still have a semi-final against Barcelona ..."
In the locker room of the home team, the Chelsea players looked at their head coach, no matter how they looked, they looked like a wizard exuding a conspiracy-but, this feeling made the Chelsea players feel confident.
This is also recognized by most players in the teams that Mourinho has coached. Many players have described that the Portuguese coach has a fascinating and convincing magic...
***********
After the start of the second half, Manchester United almost expanded the score again, which shocked the Chelsea fans into a cold sweat.
Chelsea, who pressed heavily, was counterattacked by Manchester United. After Robben's pass was pushed out by Ferdinand, Fletcher drove the football to the frontcourt with a big foot. After that, he dribbled into the penalty area with the ball.
Terry immediately came out to intercept.
Facing the captain of Chelsea, Li Rui suddenly stopped suddenly, then swung his right foot towards the football and made a shooting motion! !
Terry quickly jumped up to intercept, but Li Rui's shot was a fake move. Seeing that Terry jumped up, Li Rui stopped his kick towards the football, kicked it falsely, and knocked the football from behind him. To the right, while on one side of the body, turned and chased after the football.
Cruyff turned around!
…………
Stamford Bridge booed loudly, and the commentators shouted excitedly, applauding Li Rui's action!
However, Li Rui's shot was missed by Petr Cech, who stretched his leg and missed the post. Otherwise, if this attack turned into a goal, it would be another wonderful goal!
Seeing Cech save Li Rui's shot, Ferguson spread his hand regretfully. Of course, he knew that if it was 3:0, Manchester United could already focus on the match against Barcelona; on the other side, Mourinho jumped up all of a sudden. When Li Rui shot the goal, Chelsea's head coach also felt cold. If the goal was scored, even if Manchester United started to rotate to save energy, it would not be easy for Chelsea to come back.
Mourinho called out Essien to the bench, telling Essien to get ready to play. When Chelsea is pressing hard now, they need a player with good offensive and defensive skills like 'Buffalo' to stabilize the situation on the field.
…………
Giggs took the corner, Cristiano Ronaldo snatched the point, his head flick just wide, once again startled a little commotion in the stands at Stamford Bridge.
dead ball.
Immediately, Chelsea made the first substitution of the game, Essien came off the bench, and he replaced the Argentine star Crespo.
On the other hand, Ferguson also began to make constant substitutions. First, Cassano replaced Rooney, who performed well in this game. The little fat man is in good condition now, but Ferguson will let Rooney retain his energy for the league in the middle of next week.And because Cassano played the Champions League on behalf of Roma in the first half of the season, he is not eligible to represent Manchester United in the Champions League, so there is no Champions League task, so he can fight in this game.
In the 63rd minute of the game, Ferguson made another substitution. He replaced Cristiano Ronaldo with Park Ji-sung. Now, in addition to the veteran Ryan Giggs, Ferguson, O'Shea, and Park Ji-sung are all in the midfield of Manchester United. There are engineering players, and it is obvious that Manchester United will adopt a defensive posture.
Ferguson was also hesitating whether to replace Li Rui, but in the end Ferguson decided to let Li Rui stay on the court for the time being. In comparison, although Li Rui is an Asian player, his physical condition is one of the best in the Manchester United team Yes, you must know that Li Rui's testosterone index shocked the Manchester United team doctors. Of course, Li Rui's physical fitness is relative. It doesn't mean that he can't run to death, but his physical fitness is better than other players.
…………
Seeing that Manchester United replaced Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney in succession, on the other side of Chelsea's bench, Mourinho's mouth raised a hidden smile.
His judgment is completely correct, and he believes that even the players who have not been replaced will definitely start to be more or less distracted from the game against Barcelona - all this is only because the current score on the field is 2:0!
Sometimes, the mentality of the players is really subtle, and an excellent head coach who can even become a wily man is to seize this momentary change. Although Mourinho can be regarded as the head coach representative of the young school, but , the Portuguese are definitely not rookies, but they are very difficult to deal with!
***********
In the 67th minute of the game, the situation on the court changed suddenly.
Makelele cut off Park Ji-sung's ground ball to O'Shea in midfield, Chelsea launched an attack, the ball reached Joe Cole's feet, Chelsea's No. 10 handed the ball to Essien, the big buffalo split the ball, Ronaldo Ben retreated to catch the ball, and Fletcher immediately came up to intercept.
Robben controlled the football under his feet, and he looked at Fletcher who came up to intercept him.He noticed that perhaps because he was afraid of breaking through, Fletcher deliberately kept his distance.
There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Robben's mouth, and then his upper body leaned forward. Fletcher thought that Robben was really going to break through, so he immediately shifted his focus, ready to grab at any time.
Robben was just a feint. The Dutchman raised his right foot and flicked the football to the right. Fletcher decided in his heart that Robben was just a fake move, and he still didn't make a tackle. At this time, the success rate is relatively high.
However, to Fletcher's surprise, Robben didn't intend to break through. The Dutchman then kicked his left foot on the ground, raised his foot again, and suddenly volleyed vigorously!
Fletcher was taken aback, and quickly stretched out his foot to block, but his movement was still half a beat slow, and he couldn't block the football.
…………
The shot was so sudden that Fletcher's reaction was half a beat slow. On the one hand, Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar did not expect that Robben would shoot from a distance of about 35 meters from the goal, and Robben shot. At that time, Fletcher went up to block, which caused Van der Sar to be disturbed by Fletcher's action. By the time he reacted and rushed towards the football, it was already too late. The football drew an obvious arc, from Van der Sar Desa passed between his hands and flew into the goal behind him!
Chelsea lead 1:0!
Cheers from Stamford Bridge!
"GOOOOOAL!!! Arjen - Arjen Robben! Robben! Fantastic shot from long distance! It's a diamond important goal! Chelsea scored in the 68th minute of the game! GOOOOOAL! It's beautiful , The Dutchman's sudden long-range shot caught the entire Manchester United defense off guard! Chelsea 1:2 Manchester United! Well done! They see hope! The game is getting more and more exciting!"
***********
Indeed, as the commentator said, Robben's goal is really important to Chelsea. They only need to score one more goal to tie the score, and Chelsea can take the initiative to win the championship in their own hands. hands, and if the score can be reversed, today will be Chelsea's coronation day!
The entire Chelsea bench was also full of joy, where they were dancing excitedly, waving coats, towels, waving everything that could be waved, while the stands at Stamford Bridge were already full of cheering blue ocean.
Different from the ecstasy of the team members, Mourinho was very calm at this time. The camera was aimed at him. The Portuguese sat on the chair very calmly, without even moving his body, tilting his head, very serious ' chewing gum.
…………
On the other side, Ferguson stood up. Obviously he was very angry about the conceded goal. He rushed to the sidelines and shouted: "Pay attention! Damn! Darren! What are you doing?!! You Fool!"
Ferguson's voice is very loud, and because he understands the habit of "swearing" by the Manchester United coach, when Manchester United lost the ball, as soon as they saw Ferguson rushing to the sidelines, the well-prepared director aimed at the Manchester United team. The bench, and the fans in front of the TV were also fortunate to be able to clearly hear Ferguson scolding Fletcher.
"This is really—Sir Alex Ferguson is still the same." Lineker clicked his tongue twice, saying this.
Fletcher knew he was wrong. He lowered his head and looked at the ground. At this time, the Scottish international was extremely depressed. He could even imagine that if Manchester United had a bad result in this game, he would Surrounded by overwhelming criticism, he will undoubtedly be considered the culprit for Manchester United's loss of the league title!
Ferguson naturally didn't know about his scolding, but it made Fletcher have such an idea. If he knew, the old Scottish man would definitely not mind going up and kicking this compatriot to the ground, and then kicking him to the ground. reserve team's...
…………
In the 68th minute of the game, Chelsea 1:2 Manchester United, the 2005-2006 Premier League championship competition has entered the most intense time.
"Perhaps, at this time, Ferguson should be most thankful that he didn't replace Li..." Taibi said, looking at Li Rui with his hands on his hips on the court and looking at the sky.
Manchester United coach Ferguson did not replace Li Rui due to hesitation for a while, but what impact will Li Rui, who stayed on the field, have on the results of this game and this season?
