Immediately after narrowly escaping the game, Chelsea gave Tottenham a blow to the head with a standard quick counter-attack, and that was the bitter result of Drogba's missed chance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Damn!" Drogba slammed his fist on the turf as he watched the Chelsea players celebrate the goal at the other end of the pitch, his tone full of reluctance and remorse, "If I had been able to control the ball just now, this wouldn't have happened......"

Until this time, Drogba hated that he had not honed his skills properly while playing in France. However, there is obviously no regret medicine to sell in this world, so Drogba can only accept this slightly cruel reality for him.

"Get up, Didier. Robbie Keane walked over and patted Drogba on the shoulder, and instead of reproaching the Ivorians for wasting their chances, he comforted him, "Instead of feeling sorry for yourself here and not being able to do anything to help, it is better to get up and take concrete actions to undo this mistake you have made." ”

Even the famous Roberto Baggio has missed a penalty that led to Italy and the Hercules Cup, and Palermo even set a record of conceding three penalties in a row in a game, making Argentina lose 3-0 to Colombia in the Copa America. So, in Robbie Keane's view, Drogba is nothing at all. It can only be said that the Ivorians were too lucky, just squandered a chance to shoot on goal, only to be caught by Chelsea and hit a wave of counter-attacks. The most embarrassing thing is that Chelsea actually scored a goal in this counterattack, which suddenly made Drogba's situation extremely embarrassing.

"Hmm. Hearing Robbie Keane's words, Drogba nodded, stood up from the turf, sorted out some bad mood, and prepared to make up for it with practical actions in the next time!

"In other words, if Tottenham can't win this game against Chelsea, then Nelson's situation will be quite dangerous. 'Seeing Chelsea's side score less than two minutes into the game, Lineker commented. The former World Cup Golden Boot knows that the Blues have not only made a fantastic start to the game, but have also pushed Tottenham Hotspur to the brink – if Tottenham are unable to secure a win in this league game, or even lose at the hands of Chelsea, then George and the Tottenham players will inevitably be under more criticism from the British media after the game!

For the English media, who have always regarded fueling the flames and fanning the flames as their job, they will not care what is behind Tottenham's consecutive winless streaks, and will only launch a more heartless verbal attack on Tottenham, which has been winless for four consecutive rounds!

Therefore, Lineker fears that the Tottenham players and George will collapse under the blow of the media after the defeat to Chelsea, and revert to the half-dead team that only knows how to mess around in the Premier League before George took over.

However, to Lineker's relief, in the face of the unfavorable situation of falling behind by one goal at the beginning, the Tottenham players did not get distracted, but withstood Chelsea's attack after the game restarted, giving the opponent a chance to chase after the victory!

After all, after the run-in of the previous games, especially the head-to-head meeting with Liverpool, the confidence of the Tottenham players has been greatly improved - the fact that they can play on a par with a giant club of Liverpool's level, and even lead the Reds in the game, it would be a real surprise if the confidence of the Tottenham players is not improved.

As for the recent cycle of consecutive draws for the team...... Although most of the players in the Tottenham team know that the team's attacking tactics are too monotonous and seen through by the opponent, they also know that as a team that is in the midst of a rebuilding period, Tottenham can achieve the results they have achieved quite well. You must know that unlike most of the recruits who have long adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League and Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur introduced most of the young players who lack experience in the top flight in the summer, and even those with similar experience basically have no experience in the Premier League, and the change is much larger than that of the Blues, so it will naturally take more effort for this team to grind into shape.

It was because of this awareness that after the restart, Tottenham did not rush to fight back and get back the score. Under Carrick's command, the players carefully maneuvered around Chelsea on the pitch, making a solid defence the highest priority, and resolutely not giving Chelsea players a chance to extend their lead!

After all, being one goal behind and two goals behind is a very different situation for the side behind the scoreline. The former just need to be patient and look for an equaliser, after all, a football match has a full 90 minutes, and unless there is a huge disparity in quality between the two sides, or the goal is coming to the end of the game, it is impossible not to find a chance at all, while the latter is in a very dangerous situation, because even if the laggards can pull one back, they are still behind their opponents on the pitch and still need to continue to struggle. Therefore, if a team is two goals behind in the game, it is undoubtedly a great challenge for the mental endurance and willpower of the players who are behind!

So, neither the Tottenham players on the pitch nor George on the sidelines wanted to see Chelsea lead by two goals.

However, the reality always backfires. In the 24th minute, Chelsea once again seized the opportunity of a Tottenham attack defeat to launch a quick counter-attack, Glenn Johnson received Joe Cole's ball and rushed along the right side of the pitch, facing Heinze's defense to force an overtake, and without waiting for Heinze to make a remedy, he directly took a high cross!

Despite some criticism for not being aggressive defensively and leaking relationships, Glen Johnson has been able to help Chelsea considerably in attack. Especially tonight, when Duff was rested and Chelsea's wide attack could only count on two full-backs, Glenn Johnson's advantage was naturally maximized!

Facing the flying ball, Crespo suppressed Vidic, who was defending him, blocked the Serbian and Montenegro central defender behind him, and then found the landing point of the ball five meters in front of the goal, and it was a direct header attack!

Because Crespo's shot was so close, Cech couldn't keep the ball out of the net even if he made a save, and could only watch in despair as the ball flew into his goal for the second time!

2-0!With Crespo's header, Chelsea extended their lead just after halfway through the first half!

Seeing that Cech's goal was once again breached by Chelsea, George couldn't sit still. After all, although George focused on the players' training results in the past two weeks tonight, and did not make too many requirements for the results of the game, if Tottenham lost too badly in this game, causing the confidence that the players had built up so hard to be severely damaged, and even making them doubt this set of tactics, then George's hard work for more than a month will be completely in vain.

The most important thing is that Drogba seems to have become a little constrained due to the missed opportunity at the beginning, and will basically pass to his teammates as soon as he gets the ball, as if it is not the ball but a dynamite bag at his feet, and Vidic, who has been in a 360-degree all-round round blow by various forwards since the start of the new season, has also had psychological problems. This can be seen from the fact that he defended Crespo before but was suppressed by the Argentine.

So, taking advantage of the break when the Chelsea players were celebrating their goals on the sidelines, George called Drogba and Vidic to the sidelines, sprayed them from head to toe with a relatively hidden corner, and used a copycat from Ferguson's hair dryer to spray them from head to toe, and used an angry scolding to re-energize the two who had performed badly in this game: "Didier (Drogba), Nemanja (Vidic), I brought you two to Tottenham, not to see your clumsy performance on the pitch!" If you still want to prove yourself, give me a good memory of what you've learned in training these days...... Learn to use your brains! Don't always get your body moving before your brain! And, Didier, if I see you get the ball again, it's like getting a bomb, believe it or not, I won't let you touch the ball in the future?!"

"Tell the others, especially Michael, that everybody is going to attack for me, just like we've been doing in training for the past two weeks!" Knowing that continuing to defend would definitely not be able to save the two-goal situation, George made a decision, "I believe that Ranieri, this guy who is going to defend once he is ahead, will definitely not let me down at this time!"

George's judgment was very accurate. On the other side, seeing that his team was already two goals ahead, Ranieri's conservative mentality once again prevailed. As a result, the tinkerer made a decision that was considered "brain-dead" by countless media experts after the game: only Crespo, Mutu and Joe Cole were left in the front court to prepare for a counterattack, and the others shrank to their own half to focus on defense!

Although Chelsea have also been defensive and counter-attacking in the past, Glen Johnson and Bridge on the flanks have also been involved in the attack, so the Blues' attack is quite three-dimensional. And now, Ranieri's decision has abolished Chelsea's wing attack, and by the way, it has also liberated Heinze and Stephen Carr, who did not dare to plug in easily!

Ranieri did so as a result that Tottenham, who were under much less pressure defensively, pinned Chelsea into the middle of the half for the remainder of the first half. Even Heinze and Karl have repeatedly advanced to within 30 meters of the Chelsea goal to participate in the attack, so you can imagine how vigorous Tottenham's offensive has been during this time!

In the face of Tottenham's fierce attack, Chelsea's defense inevitably showed a crack - in the 38th minute, Bierovka broke through Glen Johnson's defense for the Nth time and sent a cross, and Drogba followed up in the middle to beat the 35-year-old Desailly to score with a header to help Tottenham pull one back!

In this way, after Webber blew the whistle for the end of the first half, Tottenham Hotspur managed to recover a point and entered the break with a temporary one-goal deficit!
