Chapter 168: First round of the Champions League group stage, scoring twice!"Zhuangdianertai! Zhuangdianertai!" "Good evening, dear audience friends, here is the live broadcast of the first round of the 15-16 UEFA Champions League Group G match, Chelsea vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv" "Now let's introduce the starting lineups of both teams. First up is the home team Chelsea!" Chelsea (4-2-3-1) Defenders: Azpilicueta, Zouma, Gary Cahill, Baba Midfielders: Fabregas, Loftus-Cheek, Willian Forwards: Hazard, Remy, Jiang Yuan Goalkeeper: Begovic "Then it's the visiting team Maccabi Tel Aviv, a team from the Israeli Premier League! They used a very strange formation when they came to Stamford Bridge today. It was... 4141?" Maccabi Tel Aviv (4-1-4-1)
Defenders: Ben Harouch, Tibi, Tal Ben Haim, Shpurkin Midfielders: Albertman, Rican, Noza, Mitrovic, Tal Ben Haim Striker: Zahavi Goalkeeper: Rajkovic "We can see that Maccabi Tel Aviv uses a 4141 formation, which is actually a variation of the 451 formation. Judging from the formation used by Maccabi Tel Aviv, they should focus on defense in this match against the Premier League giants." "Also, the audience just heard two Tal Ben Haim. This is not a slip of the tongue. The two players have the same name. Okay, let's focus on the game!" …… Off the field, Maccabi Tel Aviv coach Jokanovic had a serious expression on his face. Having been competing in the Europa League for many years, they have little experience in the Champions League. For this higher-level competition, the entire Maccabi Tel Aviv team had only one idea. It’s not shameful to lose, so you might as well be bolder and do the best you can! "Fabregas held the ball and observed, and Jurgen Klopp coordinated the attack on the right. Chelsea's players showed their usual steady style of play." "Pass it to Hazard. Wow, Hazard was immediately pressed by two Maccabi Tel Aviv players as soon as he got the ball. Haha, although the two teams have never played against each other before, Maccabi Tel Aviv also knows to target Hazard!" "But... Chelsea now is slightly different from last season's Chelsea. This season's Chelsea is not only able to break through on the left wing!" "Pass the ball back to William. As the wingman of Chelsea's three frontcourt players, William needs to take on Fabregas' previous ferrying work. Here it comes! Jiang Yuan reaches out for the ball on the right, and William makes a straight pass!" "Beautiful! William's short pass was as accurate as ever. The ball rolled past Albertmann's left side, and Jiang Yuan caught the ball with almost no effort just by running forward!" Jiang Yuan showed his terrifying impact on the right. Albert wanted to chase back, but his speed was completely not on the same level as Jiang Yuan. He had no choice but to give the task of defending Jiang Yuan to Ben Harush. Ben Harush is 1 meters tall as the left back of Maccabi Tel Aviv, but Jiang Yuan was not panicked at all. He pushed the ball inside little by little with the outside of his right foot. "Come here one!" Ben Harush was frightened by Jiang Yuan's aura and felt that he could not do it alone, so he called Rikan for help. What’s the point of two defenders? When Jiang Yuan was playing in the Portuguese Super League, there were at least three people on the opposite side staring at him! “Here!” Jiang Yuan stopped outside the penalty area, looked back, signaled Azpilicueta to fill his position, and raised his right leg to prepare to pass back. Just when everyone thought he was going to pass the ball back, Jiang Yuan turned his ankle and the original pass suddenly turned into a forward dribble. "Wow!" Stamford Bridge erupted in a roar. The most spectacular things on a football field are shooting and dribbling, and Chelsea's left and right wingers both have the ability to make fans scream. Jiang Yuan used his left hand to hold Rican's chest, then took the ball with his back and used his body to separate Ben Haroush from the ball.
Although Jiang Yuan is not very old, as a Premier League player, he is absolutely not inferior to anyone from other leagues in terms of physical confrontation! "Take it!" After entering the penalty area, Jiang Yuan faced dense defense and passed the ball back to William in the middle. William looked left and right, pretending to pass the ball to Hazard, but in fact it was another short pass. Remy got the ball in the small penalty area. "Snapped!" The French center forward pushed the ball gently and kicked it into the net without any pressure. 1:0, in the 17th minute of the game, Chelsea, playing at home, opened the scoring with a goal from Remy! "nice shot!" Jiang Yuan opened his arms and walked over. Remi took the lead and hugged Jiang Yuan: "Bro, good!" The camera was turned to Mourinho on the sidelines. When the Portuguese coach saw the camera pointed at him, he spread his hands, as if to say: Is it difficult? Is this difficult? "My God, Chelsea has been in really good form in recent games, especially Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan, who had the ball, showed himself as a dribbling machine. And William, the Brazilian who switched from winger to attacking midfielder, showed his strong adaptability and can now play at a level close to that of Fabregas." "But Fabregas may have to make some sacrifices because he plays as a defensive midfielder, which is not his best position." "Of course, we all know that compared to individual players, the interests of the entire team should be put first. As long as Chelsea can maintain the current winning streak, I believe Fabregas will not have too many complaints!" "Referee Zwaye blows the whistle, the game continues!" [Brothers, what can I say, Jiang Yuan dribbles past opponents like it's a piece of cake! ] [Haha, everyone else was doing a two-on-one pass and hitting a wall, but Jiang Yuan was doing a one-on-two pass and hitting someone, I was really dying of laughter. By the way, Jiang Yuan looks quite skinny, but he is not weak at all in this confrontation!] [Of course, if Jiang Yuan was weak, he wouldn't be able to kick that kind of super fast free kick. To be honest, watching Messi and Ronaldo's game is just for fun, it's really exciting, but it's me, Xiao Jiang! ] [66666, brothers, have you read the Weibo posted by the sports channel? From now on, all Chelsea games can be watched on CCTV5. Who would still buy a membership? ] [What, no longer a member? Then how can I support Xiao Jiang? No, I'll order two player-edition jerseys first] [As we all know, Ronaldo is known as Xiao Jiangyuan] …… Maccabi Tel Aviv had a corner kick opportunity. Taking advantage of the opportunity to set up a human wall, Fabregas ran to Jiang Yuan and whispered, "When attacking, you can move forward a little bit, and leave the rest to me." "you sure?" Jiang Yuan showed a doubtful expression. Chelsea only arranged two defensive midfielders. If he pressed forward too much, there would inevitably be a defensive gap on the right. Fabregas patted Jiang Yuan on the shoulder: "The opponent is not strong, trust me!" Since Fabregas insisted, Jiang Yuan had nothing to say. He gave a thumbs up and ran to defend. According to Mourinho's tactics, in today's corner kick defense, Jiang Yuan needs to be responsible for Ben Haim, the champion central defender from Israel. "Snapped!" Albertmann takes a corner kick. Front point!
Zouma didn't even jump. He squatted down, shook his head, and headed the ball out directly. Rican at the second landing point made a long shot without stopping the ball. "Beautiful! Begovic's diving save saves Chelsea from danger. Hey, here it comes, Begovic carries the ball forward, Chelsea's chance to counterattack!" "When counterattacking, you must find the fastest teammate. Hey! The players of Maccabi Tel Aviv are very smart. Rican sticks directly to Jiang Yuan. Oh my God! It seems that Begovic can only pass the ball to the left. Although the counterattack on the left may be slower, the ownership of the ball is more guaranteed..." "A long kick in the air, huh? Begovic still chooses to pass the ball to the right. Oh, isn't this a dangerous ball for Jiang Yuan? Begovic's awareness of handling the ball is still not good enough!" Just as the commentators on Channel 5 were surprised at Begovic's passing choice, a scene that surprised the 4 fans at Stamford Bridge appeared. Jiang Yuan suddenly rushed out from the right sideline. Originally Jiang Yuan was running behind Li Kan, but now he is running side by side with Li Kan! "Hey, Remi, get on up there!" William shouted when he saw this. He had been a teammate with Jiang Yuan for more than a month. Whenever Jiang Yuan ran on the right, he would have a feeling... Sure! "Wow!" The fans stood up, especially the home team fans near the right side, who pulled the Chelsea scarves in their hands and kept cheering Jiang Yuan: "Run, run, come on, Jiang! Overtake that Israeli, overtake him!" "Good, good! Oh my god! Jiang!" In the end, Jiang Yuan lived up to everyone's expectations. He took advantage of his maximum speed to get four body lengths ahead of Rickan, and then stopped the ball with his right foot. "shit!" Jiang Yuan cursed loudly. His technique of stopping the long pass with his feet was still as bad as ever. The ball bounced on the back of his foot and rolled forward. Fortunately, this was a counterattack and there was no one on the left baseline of Maccabi Tel Aviv, so Jiang Yuan could rush up and get the ball back. After a few passes, the gap between Jiang Yuan and Rican was almost 7 or 8 meters. You have to know that Rican started running back from the top of the arc, while Jiang Yuan's starting point was Chelsea's small penalty area! "Fuck, why doesn't anyone want it!" Jiang Yuan brought the ball to the baseline, but none of his teammates stepped forward to ask for the ball, and Rican and Ben Harouch were about to return to their positions. Helpless Jiang Yuan had to send a reverse triangle pass before the ball went out of the baseline. William took the ball, turned around and sent the ball right in front of Fabregas' running line. The Spanish midfielder rushed over and shot from long range. "Wow! A great save from Maccabi Tel Aviv goalkeeper Rajkovic. Chelsea also failed to score... Hey! Hazard ran up and appeared at the second landing point!" "Ben Haim wants to grab the ball, but Hazard's small-area ball protection is very strong, and the rhythm changes! Ben Haim is knocked down and can shoot!" "Shoot! Oh? It's a pass, Hazard's fake shot knocks the goalkeeper down, and the ball comes to Jiang Yuan's feet!" "Instep shot, wow! In the 25th minute of the game, Jiang Yuan scored and Chelsea led 2:0!" "GGGGG——OOOOO——AAAAAA——LLLLL" "26′, number7for Chelsea!" "2:0!" The game had not even reached 26 minutes and Chelsea had already taken a 2-goal lead, which made the Blues fans feel a little unreal.
Although Maccabi Tel Aviv is a weak team, it is also a weak team among the teams participating in the Champions League. Its absolute strength is actually not weak. However, for such a team that advanced to the Champions League through the qualifiers, Chelsea has almost a huge crushing advantage. Remember what Mourinho said before the season, Chelsea's current form is not even as good as Coventry in English League Two. But now it seems that what Mourinho said may not be entirely correct! "Eden!" Jiang Yuan stretched out his hands, pointed his two index fingers in the direction of Hazard, and then stepped back towards the corner flagpole step by step. At the same time, Hazard opened his arms and ran towards Jiang Yuan: "Jiang!" "Ha ha!" The two hugged each other tightly. So long! Chelsea players haven't experienced the pleasure of crushing their opponents for a long time! After hugging Hazard, Jiang Yuan turned to face the home team fans and waved his hands: "Louder! Louder!" "River!" "JIANG, Chelseaaaa!!!" …… "Haha, although we suffered three consecutive defeats at the beginning of the season, the atmosphere within Chelsea is still good" "Previously, foreign media speculated that Chelsea had conflicts in the dressing room, which led to the decline in performance. But with Chelsea's two consecutive league wins and today's performance in the Champions League, all these rumors have been refuted." "Ouch, Chelsea players' celebration was complained by Maccabi Tel Aviv coach Rajkovic, the players need to come back quickly" "Ah! Haha, Zuma was shown a yellow card by referee Zwaye for delaying the game. Zuma wanted to argue with the referee, but the referee ignored him." "Tsk, Zouma has good talent, but sometimes he suffers from his youth. The referee has warned you to run back. If you walk back to the half court slowly, you will definitely get a card. I guess Chelsea's coaching staff will criticize Zouma for this behavior after the game!" Off the field, Mourinho complained to the fourth official about Zouma's card. He and Brown stood on the left and right of the fourth official, but the fourth official just stretched out one hand in front of himself and did not make any statement. Mourinho spread his hands and said, "Hey, can this be considered a foul? The referee is a damn bastard!" Before he could comment on Zouma after the game, Mourinho himself paid the price for what he said. The fourth official did not explain Mourinho's complaint to the referee, but instead relayed Mourinho's swearing words to Zwaye verbatim. Then a dramatic scene occurred. Just as Zwaye was about to blow the whistle to kick off, he suddenly strode down the field and showed Mourinho a yellow card. "Oh!" If a player gets a card, the fans will definitely be very worried, but if it is the head coach who gets a card... Sorry, even Chelsea fans will take it easy. Even in the eyes of most fans, seeing the coach of their home team get a card is a very interesting thing. The Chelsea fans who came to Stamford Bridge to watch the game today had only one thought in their minds: this ticket was worth it! "Ouch, I just finished speaking. Mourinho was also shown a yellow card. Although I don't know the specific reason, based on the noise off the field just now, the team's Portuguese coach probably expressed some bad opinions about the referee's decision."
"Mourinho spread his hands, turned back and forth, and expressed his dissatisfaction to the fans. Haha, it's still the same Mourinho!" "Chelsea was shown two yellow cards in one minute. OK, the game continues. Let's see if Maccabi Tel Aviv can catch up with the score next. Or... can Chelsea continue to widen the score gap at home?" …… "Kill them! Run! Run! Remi, hurry up! Why is a center standing back there?" Mourinho seems to be a little allergic to yellow cards. Ever since Zwaye was shown a yellow card, the Portuguese coach's mental state has been a little abnormal, always yelling at Chelsea players to strengthen their attack. The players on the field also performed very well, especially the forward line composed of Jiang Yuan and Hazard. In just 8 minutes, the two of them had a total of 4 shots on target. This data can be said to be very amazing! Time passed by minute by minute, and in the 41st minute of the first half, Chelsea counterattacked with a corner kick! "Fabregas is dribbling forward, but he is not fast enough, so he has to pass the ball out. Give it to William, a good choice, let's see how William will handle it... Keep moving forward without passing the ball!" "Remy and Maccabi Tel Aviv's central defender Tibi were standing on the same level. He seemed to want William to pass the ball to him. Hiss - William still didn't choose to pass the ball. Maybe in his opinion this was not a good passing opportunity." "Albermann is watching and can't wait any longer! Albertmann is going to steal the ball, William must pass it!" "Protect the ball with your back! William first controls the ball under his feet, eh, he knocks the ball with his heel! The ball passes between Albertmann's legs!" "Beautiful! William starts to speed up. As long as William can get past Albertmann, he can break through to the top of the arc. As we all know, William, Jiang Yuan, and even Hazard all have good long-range shooting ability at the top of the arc..." "Oh my god, Albertmann reached out and pulled William down! This must be a foul!" After William fell to the ground, he held his head with his hands and rolled twice on the ground. The referee Zwaye hurried over from behind and showed a yellow card to Albertman for the foul. "Sure enough, the referee pulled out a card. This is a direct free kick! William used his ball protection ability to help the team get a free kick opportunity in a good position!" "Hiss, the fans in the live broadcast room must be thinking the same as I am. Can this free kick be given to Jiang Yuan? As far as I know, the only players on Chelsea who can threaten with direct free kicks are William and Jiang Yuan, plus Fabregas in the defensive midfielder position, a total of three people." "William stood up and took the ball. William, who had committed the foul, took the free kick himself..." However, a scene beyond the expectations of everyone in the live broadcast room appeared. After William got the ball, he walked towards Jiang Yuan without hesitation, handed the ball to Jiang Yuan in front of all the viewers around the world, and then whispered something. As for what William said, only Jiang Yuan and himself knew. In the end, Jiang Yuan, who took the ball from William, stood behind the white line drawn by the referee. "call……" Jiang Yuan raised his head and looked at the human wall in front of him and Rajkovic who was standing on the goal line. The noisy sounds on the field were endless. Jiang Yuan closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down in this way, but failed. The Blues fans were still too enthusiastic. But this cannot be blamed on them. Qualified Blues fans have already checked Jiang Yuan's information. During the Portuguese Super League period, Jiang Yuan's direct free kick scoring rate at the top of the arc was as high as 42%, and his scoring rate in other positions was as high as . Judging from these data, Jiang Yuan's free kick level, especially the free kick level near the top of the arc, is definitely not to be ignored. "Pooh!" Jiang Yuan spat on the grass and then began to back away. 1, 2, 3, 3 steps. Then take a big step to the left. "Beep!"
The referee blows the whistle! In front of Jiang Yuan was a huge human wall consisting of 6 people. Rajkovic chose to use the human wall to defend the right side and defend the left side himself. After observing for 2 seconds, Jiang Yuan already had a plan in mind, so he started to run. "hiss--" While Jiang Yuan was running, Stamford Bridge was surprisingly quiet, and everyone's attention was on Jiang Yuan and the ball in front of him. Ankle locked, knees engaged... Hit the door! "boom!" The ball brushed past defender Ben Haim's hair and passed over the wall of players. When it reached its highest point, it plummeted and went accurately into the net. "GOOOOOOOOAAALLLLL!" "What a goal! What a brilliant goal!" "oh my god!" The commentator on the scene was obviously frightened by the free kick. "Roar--" After scoring the goal, Jiang Yuan roared and spread his arms and went behind the ball. "Fuck! Who else! Who else!" The director focused the camera on Jiang Yuan, and saw that veins were bulging all over his body, especially the muscles on his neck were almost clearly visible. The home commentator at Stamford Bridge raised the microphone above his head and shouted: "Tell me, who scored the goal?" "Tell me, who scored the goal!!!" "Jiang!" "Number 7, Jiang!" "wowwwww!!!" The entire audience shouted his name and celebrated wildly. Jiang Yuan had only experienced this treatment at Porto's Dragon Stadium, but now he also had this feeling at Stamford Bridge. The fans cheered Jiang Yuan’s name, isn’t this the best recognition for him? [Damn, awesome! Another goal scored with a lift ball. Jiang Yuan, you are truly invincible! ] [Jiang Yuan scored twice, the first time in the Champions League that he scored twice! Look at the slow motion, the ball barely spun in the air, and it hit the crossbar and went into the net] [Angle? What angle? The goalkeeper of Maccabi Tel Aviv stood there motionless. He probably didn't expect Jiang Yuan's free kick to pass through their entire wall. Objectively speaking, this goal can be rated as the best goal of this round of group stage.] [Anyway, I support it. Xiao Jiang's free kicks are more fierce than those in Porto. Not only are the angles more tricky, but the speed of the ball is not something that ordinary people can kick! ] [The above, please pay attention. How can Xiao Jiang be called an ordinary person? I now seriously suspect that Jiang Yuan is the reincarnation of Gao Qiu. Don't worry, brothers. I will check the information to see if there is anyone with the surname Gao who changed his name to Jiang in history. Maybe Jiang Yuan is a descendant of Gao Qiu! ]
[Jiang Yuan: Isn't it easy to score a goal from a free kick? Why are you so surprised?] 【Chelsea's top free kicker, got it! 】 [Haha, when William passed the ball to Jiang Yuan, some people were cursing. It was so funny. Who is the best free kicker for the Blues? Don’t you understand now? William’s free kicks are strong, but you have to know that there is still a huge gap between “strong” and “very strong”] [I'm having a brain orgasm right now. Jiang Yuan, go, go, go, take advantage of the group stage to score a few more goals and try to get into the top five of the scorer list! ] [I personally suggest that this season's Champions League scorer list be settled now, because then Jiang Yuan will be the Champions League Golden Boot. Haha, I'm dreaming again] …… (End of this chapter)
