Chapter 210 The Rooster Swallows the Lion "Clap clap clap!"Mourinho clapped his hands: "Focus a little and pretend that what just happened didn't happen" Mourinho came to the tactical board, picked up one of the magnetic buttons, and spoke slowly. …… "Welcome back, dear audience friends, this is the second half of the 14th round of the Premier League, Tottenham vs. Chelsea, neither side made any substitutions" "Hmm... Coach Huang, I have a question. Since Walker is fast, why doesn't Mourinho switch Jiang Yuan to the left and let Hazard play on the right? This way, the explosive power of Jiang Yuan and Hazard can be released at the same time." "Jiang Yuan is very fast, but Walker is not much slower. If Jiang Yuan is put on the left, it will give Tottenham a chance. I think Mourinho should have considered more. Since Walker is fast on the wing, Hazard should just not go to the bottom. You can see that Hazard hardly went to the bottom a few times in the first half. Mourinho must have emphasized this aspect." "That's true. To deal with this kind of speed-type full-back, using a speed-type wing forward to charge is not a good idea..." "Glory, Glory, Tottenham Hotspur!" "Glory, Glory, Tottenham Hotspur!" "And the spurs go marching on!"
"Tottenham are the greatest team the world has ever seen!" "..." The song that sounded at White Hart Lane was Tottenham's team anthem, "Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur". The title of Tottenham's team anthem is similar to Manchester United's team anthem, "Glory Glory Man United", the melody is the same, and even some of the lyrics are similar. Because Manchester United's team song is more famous, many people think that Tottenham's team song is copied from Manchester United, but this is not the case. The team songs of both teams are adapted from the famous American song "Battle Hymn of the Republic", so there is no accusation of plagiarism. Under the chorus of the fans, Tottenham's advantage as the home team was infinitely magnified. Taking this situation into consideration, Mourinho told the players before the game that they should imagine themselves as Manchester United players and that today's opponent is Tottenham. And this is not White Hart Lane, but Old Trafford, the home of Manchester United. In this way, the cheers from the fans outside the stadium belong to Chelsea. Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur? no! Glory Glory Man United? no! Glory Glory Chelsea? Yes! In the 67th minute, Dembele played his role as an offensive metronome in the frontcourt, mobilizing the players to move to the right in the attack. Obviously, Chelsea's left side is the weaker side in defense compared to the right side. "Give me!" Dembele reached out and took the ball from Mason, turned around and passed it to Son Heung-min, who then passed the ball to Dale's feet. Logically speaking, Son Heung-min should be the one moving forward and preparing to go down the flank, but Tottenham's style of play was very smart. They chose to let Walker take on the task of moving forward, while Son Heung-min stayed behind to help Dale with the deployment. "With Son Heung-min's wall pass, Walker got rid of Hazard's defense with almost no interference. It was very easy."
"He walked inside, Matic went up to defend, Walker tried to knock Matic away, and he really knocked him away! My God, Walker's impact on the wing is very strong" "Getting ready to go down the line, Azpilicueta is blocking the position, physical confrontation, and there are moves with his hands!" "Walker is down, down!" "The referee blew the whistle decisively, Azpilicueta's yellow card!" "At the same time, Tottenham got a direct free kick outside the penalty area!" Azpilicueta, who was shown a yellow card, had no choice but to let go of his hands. It was not his intention to knock Walker down, but he had no choice but to do so because his hands were moved and Walker did fall to the ground. It stopped Walker's dribbling, but did not stop Tottenham's attack. The foul occurred on the left side of the penalty area, almost in a straight line with the outermost edge of the penalty area. Fortunately, it was a little off the center of the goal and not suitable for a direct shot. Free kick, Eriksen and Ryan Mason stood behind the ball. These two guys are good at free kicks, so it's hard to say who will take the kick. "Beep!" The referee blew the whistle, Mason started to run and Chelsea's penalty area suddenly fell into chaos, Jiang Yuan and Vertonghen bumped into each other, Zouma and Kane pushed each other, everyone in Tottenham had his own offensive task, and everyone in Chelsea had his own defensive task. However, when Mason reached the position, he stepped directly over the ball. Eriksen, who was following behind him, looked up and then passed the ball. "Later point!" William, who was observing from the outside, shouted, and saw the ball fly over Jiang Yuan's head and go straight to the back point. Eriksen's free kick was very strange, not too high, but not too low either. Zouma thought he could reach it, but after jumping up he did not touch the ball. Then the ball came to the back point, where Dell was. Cahill and Dale jumped at the same time, but Cahill's body leaned forward a little, and Dale hit Cahill's pectoralis major directly after jumping. no! Jiang Yuan thought to himself that something was wrong, and the next second, Oliver's whistle sounded on the court. "Penalty! It's a panaty!" "oh my god!" The commentator on the scene exclaimed, who could have thought that this free kick would eventually turn into a penalty? "referee!" Azpilicueta rushed to Oliver without stopping: "This is a penalty? You told me this is a penalty?" Oliver was about to speak when Vertonghen rushed over and stood directly between Azpilicueta and Oliver, preventing Chelsea from having a chance to explain to the referee. "Penalty!" Oliver emphasized again and made it clear that this was a penalty. fuck!
Cahill put his hands on his waist, his eyes were dazed, and it was unknown what he was thinking. After giving away a penalty kick to the opponent when trailing 1:2, Cahill almost collapsed emotionally. "Tottenham's first penalty kick Kane stood on the penalty spot. Now he already has two goals. If he can score this penalty kick, he will get a hat trick in this game!" "The referee blows the whistle, Kane! Run up... and shoot!" "The ball goes in! Oh my God, Harry Kane, a hat trick in this game!" “GOOOOO—AAAAAAAAAA—LLLLLLLLLL!!!” With Kane's penalty kick, Tottenham, who were already leading by one goal, widened the score difference to two goals. Pooh! Begovic got up from the ground and spat on the ground. This kind of violent shot would be difficult to block even if the direction was guessed correctly, not to mention that Begovic didn't guess the direction at all. [It's 3:1 now? I'm really impressed. Why did Cahill jump? Wouldn't it be better to disturb Dell's center of gravity? ] [There was a false use of the center of gravity. If Cahill didn't jump up to defend, the ball would be very dangerous. Chelsea didn't have many defensive players at the back post.] [No more watching, go to sleep! ] 【Bye, brothers! 】 [Kane scored a hat trick? ? ? Damn, what's the current situation of the scorer list, has anyone studied it? ] [Hiss——Kane has 13 goals, the same as Xiao Jiang, but Xiao Jiang has one less penalty kick, so he is still first. So close, so close! ] [Damn, I'm really impressed. In this situation, Kane scored more goals] 【Jiang Yuan: Here comes the intensity! 】 [Why is Kane's penalty so accurate? I wish I could shoot so accurately. I envy him! ] [Cold knowledge: Chelsea doesn’t have many goals. If they lose this game, they will be squeezed out by Tottenham.] [Damn, there are still 20 minutes left, can Chelsea do a little more and catch up? ] 【King Jiang, save me! 】 …… Players who are robbed of a penalty usually have an unbalanced mentality. Taking this into consideration, Mourinho replaced Cahill with Baba in the 75th minute. Then it was Tottenham's turn. Although they were leading by two goals, Pochettino still made some substitutions. No. 11 Lamela replaced No. 8 Ryan Mason! , No. 14 Ngiye replaced No. 7 Son Heung-min! "Move, move!" Mourinho waved his hands. With 15 minutes left and two goals behind, the chance of equalizing the score was slim, but not completely impossible. But the reality is cruel. Pochettino injected more fuel into Chelsea's front line through substitutions. The energetic Lamela and Ngiye created danger in Chelsea's half many times, which made Mourinho panic. The most painful thing is that as the head coach, he has no way to deal with it. There is nothing I can do to help! The game continues.
In the 83rd minute, Ngiye, who had just come on, took a long shot from the top of the arc, but he did not find the right place to touch the ball, and the original shot turned into a flick, and the ball was directly passed to Zouma. Zouma saw the opportunity and immediately passed the ball to Ivanovic on the side. The latter did not pass the ball in a hurry, but walked forward little by little. "Eriksen tried to steal the ball from Ivanovic. This guy's cardiopulmonary capacity is really good. He can still run so fast after more than 80 minutes." "Ivanovic anticipated the danger and passed the ball back to Zouma, who passed it to Begovic, who passed it to Azpilicueta. Chelsea's players completed the transfer of the ball from the right to the left in the backcourt. Let's see what Azpilicueta's choice is." "William ran back and hit the wall with William. Azpilicueta took the ball himself, shook off Dembele and passed the ball to Hazard." "Beautiful! A wonderful through ball, Azpilicueta almost fed the ball to Hazard's mouth, and Oscar came back to receive it!" "Hazard shook off Dier and passed the ball to Oscar, who pulled the ball with his left foot and it returned to William's feet." Chelsea's progression from back to front can only be described in one word. Smooth! The Blues players pushed the ball forward in the backcourt and back to the frontcourt to the extreme, successfully breaking the pressing formation composed of Kane, Ngiye, Eriksen and Lamela. At the same time, the moment William got the ball, a blue figure on the right accelerated and the sudden forward movement prevented Eriksen from reacting. "Give me!" Jiang Yuan reached out for the ball. Seeing this, William was very decisive. He made an arc with his left foot, and the ball passed in front of Dale and rolled in front of Jiang Yuan before slowing down. Scalpel! Jiang Yuan did not let William's wonderful pass go to waste. He took the ball and ran forward, and Danny Rose followed immediately. "tatata!" Jiang Yuan knocked the ball with the inside of his foot and flicked it with the outside of his foot, moving diagonally towards the penalty area. Danny Rose followed very closely, his eyes fixed on Jiang Yuan's knees. At this moment, Jiang Yuan dribbled the ball from his left foot to his right foot, then dribbled it with his right foot again, and while dribbling the ball with his right foot, he took a step back with his left foot. The ball passed from where Jiang Yuan's left foot was originally, went into Danny Rose's crotch, and then went out from under Danny Rose's crotch. "wowww!!!" The White Hart Lane stadium was in a state of panic. Jiang Yuan bypassed Danny Rose and passed the ball directly into the penalty area. Standing in the penalty area at this time was Oscar, he had already run out of the open space! "Snapped!" Oscar takes the ball and starts playing. As a result... the ball flew directly over the crossbar. This guy kicked the plane! "Fuck!" Jiang Yuan held his head in his hands and spoke the quintessence of Chinese culture.
Costa's shooting ability is indeed not comparable to Oscar! "It's such a pity, Jiang Yuan passed the ball through the legs on the right, and Oscar also got to a perfect position." "But Oscar didn't seize the opportunity at the last moment!" "I believe the Chelsea fans in the live broadcast room are in a very bad mood, but don't worry, there are still 5 minutes left in the game, and Chelsea is not without a chance to equalize the score." "After all, this is football. With five minutes of regular time plus at least three minutes of stoppage time, eight minutes can still change a lot." "..." There is nothing wrong with saying that 8 minutes can change a lot. But football is not a fairy tale after all. 8 minutes may not change anything. “Beep, beep—!” "Okay, dear audience friends, this game is over!" "In the end, Tottenham Hotspur beat Chelsea 3-1 at home, with the team's English striker Harry Kane completing a hat trick and surpassing Manchester City's Aguero to become second on the scorer list." "Of course, there are also team scores. Because of this win, Tottenham Hotspur squeezed Chelsea to third place. Chelsea, which was originally third, is now fourth." "But now the 14th round has not ended yet. If Manchester City wins the next game, then Tottenham and Chelsea will be pushed back one place in the rankings, which will definitely be a disaster for Chelsea!" …… The front page headline of "London Evening News" - Tottenham beat Chelsea 3-1 at home, Harry Kane scored a hat-trick, and Dier made a penalty in the penalty area.
