Chapter 675: Lethal Tactics
When Yang Fan and the Manchester City players celebrated the goal, the camera also found Alex!
"Unlucky Alex! The football has changed its direction in him. Tomato --."
'Chelsea's luck has been so bad. β
This can be said to be a great blow for Chelsea, the main defender Branislavic was sent off with a red card, and then, Yang Fan's free kick touched the body of his own player and refracted, resulting in the appearance of a conceded goal.
The London commentator is still criticizing the referee's enforcement standards, he believes that the referee is too partial to Manchester City and too harsh for Chelsea. According to the penalty scale this time, Manchester City's Dutch defender De Jong should have received at least two yellow cards.
Regardless, the fact that Branislav Ivanovic was sent off and that Manchester City scored to take the lead is already an irrevocable fact.
Carlo Ancelotti did not make the first substitution adjustment, he chose to adjust the position of the players on the field, in short, Terry and Alex have Ashley Cole formed a back three formation.
John Terry and Alex basically didn't press through the half, while Ashley Cole only selectively got involved in assists when he had the chance.
'Chelsea's backline is like a limp at the moment. Mortensen hit the nail on the head, with John Terry and Alex solidifying the defence, Ashley Cole on the left occasionally assisting, and the right side completely silent.
It was Chelsea, who were sarcastically said by Mortensen to be lame, but played a very sharp counterattack.
The attack started with Ashley Cole, who raced down the flank and, after attracting Zabaleta's attention, passed the ball to Torres, who pretended to dribble the ball but knocked it out with his heel, before Malouda was seen sprinting the ball in.
De Jong couldn't keep up with Malouda, and he knew that if he let this guy continue to dribble the ball, the only result would be that he himself would be left behind. β Tomato Fiction Network '.
De Jong made a quick decision and a tactical foul pulled Malouda down.
From this defensive point of view, De Jong's tactical foul was correct, he did not give Malouda to continue to dribble the ball to the danger zone, but decisive tactical foul, a tactical foul in this position, if lucky, the referee will show a yellow card at most.
"Beep!" the referee's whistle sounded along with the boos of the Chelsea fans.
"De Jong! He pulled down Malouda, it was a tactical foul, the referee had already let him go twice before, and this time I don't know if it will be a card. Lineker said.
'The foul was timely and necessary!' Malouda was already on the ball and if he was allowed to continue dribbling, the breakthrough would cause a lot of problems for the City defence. John Mortensen said to his commentator partner Lineker, "Let's guess if the referee will play a card to De Jong?!"
Malouda was lying on the ground, and when he was running, he was pushed down, and his center of gravity was lost. At the same time, there is some regret in his heart, if the opponent does not commit a decisive foul, he is fully confident that he will break in, and when the time comes, he can pass and shoot, which will be a dangerous attacking opportunity for Chelsea.
The referee finally showed a yellow card to De Jong, who did not protest, he knew it was indispensable when he committed a foul. Obviously, in the eyes of Chelsea fans, if it weren't for the referee's mercy, De Jong would have had at least one yellow card before, in that case, counting this time, De Jong would definitely have been sent off with a red card. It is precisely because of the referee's partiality that Chelsea now have one less person on the pitch.
It was a free-kick around 25 metres from goal and Frank Lampard stood at the penalty spot.
He opted to shoot straight at goal, and the quality of the free-kick was so high that it almost hit the post and sent it out in a cold sweat for the City people. ββ³β β β‘ tomato ''.
'Frank Lampard, his shot, a little bit off!'
'Frank Lampard was a little bit unlucky, and if he had pressed down a little bit on the goal, it would have been there. β
In the stands, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich also jumped up regretfully, the billionaire attaches great importance to this game, at present, the FA Cup title is Chelsea's most chance to compete for the honor, so, this game, Chelsea can not afford to lose.
Conversion of possession.
Manchester City attack.
Goalkeeper Joe Hart kicked the ball to Kompany, who kicked the ball to Zabaleta on the wing, Zabaleta passed forward, David Silva **** stopped the ball and passed the ball to Dzeko, who ferried the ball to Yang Fan under the interference of Ashley Cole.
As soon as Yang Fan got the ball, the entire Stamford Bridge booed the sky. Such a boo, if it is a rookie, may be scared to the point that his legs are weak, but for the long-tested Yang Fan, it is now a piece of cake.
After Yang Fan received the ball, he did not move forward with the ball, but passed the football out again, and he showed everyone his passing footwork, which was very fast and penetrating!
The ball passed by Ramirez's feet and continued onwards, flying into an open field...... However, there doesn't seem to be a Manchester City player to pick it up!
"Dzeko!!" Lineker shouted.
The ball passed by Yang Fan rolled on the turf, just in front of Dzeko, the distance was just right, and Dzeke was able to catch up with him, which could make his degree of improvement move forward more quickly.
Dzeko started to kick in, he took a few steps forward to catch up with the ball, and he was just about to burst forward with the ball when it was tackled out by a Chelsea player from the side, and he himself fell to the ground screaming. ηͺβ eggplant novel network '.
"Foul! Essien, he took Dzeko down!"
"No fouls! It was a very decisive defense!"
Commentators in both Manchester and London shouted.
Essien's timing and angle were very good, his movements were very subtle, and the referee looked over and he was completely headed for the ball. I didn't mean to go at people.
The referee's whistle sounds.
Dzeko, who fell to the ground, hugged his right leg in pain and screamed in pain.
In fact, Essien's foul was very bad, although it was not the kind of foul that was too malicious to cause injury, but after he shoveled the ball away, he did not close his feet, and gave Dzeko who was unsuspecting and was about to break into the penalty area.
Mancini stood up all of a sudden, and if Dzeko was injured and couldn't continue the game, it would be a big surprise for Manchester City.
The Manchester City players complained and pressured the referee and they wanted to see the referee pull a card at Essien, and if possible, a red card could not have been better.
This caused a lot of displeasure among the Chelsea players, what's the matter? Just sent off one of us, it's not enough, and you want to send us off?!
Players on both sides immediately quarreled.
"Look at your guys, do you play football like that?"
"Fart! It's a normal tackle!"
"It's intentional!"
"Who do you say did it on purpose?Which eye did you see?!"
"Red card!"
"Red card you xx, this is not even a foul!"
"It's a big move...... Essien tackles, it was a timely tackle, however, the problem was that he confiscated his foot and Dzeko fell to the ground in pain. Tomato βββ³ net β -'-.'f'q-x-s'-.-com looks like it's hurt...... Substitutions, substitutions, the Manchester City team doctor made a gesture asking for a substitution!This is Dzeko can't hold on to the game!" the commentator said, "We can't say for sure whether Essien deliberately didn't close his feet at the time, but if you just look at the result, he succeeded! He stopped a Manchester City attack, and at the same time caused Dzeko to leave the pitch with an injury, now it depends on what price he has to pay for doing all this, will the referee show him a card?"
"This bastard!" De Jong rushed up, shouting at Essien, who was standing up for Dzeko.
"Bastard, keep your mouth clean. 'Ramirez came to help his team-mates and he yelled at De Jong.
There was a small riot on the pitch, players from both sides were entangled, you push me, I pushed you, and sometimes the black hand. Anyway, the mouth is not idle, the feet and hands are also constantly making small movements, coupled with the huge boos of the Chelsea fans in the stands at Stamford Bridge, the whole stadium is in chaos.
The referee blew the whistle again and again, and with the help of the two assistant referees, it was only after the conflict between the two players was stopped.
The referee showed a yellow card to the fouling Essien and then verbally warned De Jong twice.
This caused dissatisfaction among the Chelsea people, who were not satisfied, not only because Essien was shown a yellow card, but also because the referee only verbally warned De Jong, who was involved in the verbal altercation, you know, De Jong has a yellow card on him, and if the referee pulls out the card to De Jong again this time, the Dutchman can go back to the dressing room early to shower.
"The referee of this game is heavily biased in favor of Manchester City!" the London commentator shouted angrily, "This is a scandal!"
Dzeko went off injured and Manchester City were forced to make substitutions.
The injured Dzeko was replaced and Balotelli came on as a substitute.
The referee once again released Frenkie de Jong, which seemed to infuriate the Chelsea people, and in the ensuing game, the Chelsea players became more and more defensive, so to speak, and the home players are now playing with a sense of anger.
Three minutes later, Yang Fan dribbled and he was brought to the ground by Frank Lampard.
This caused another clash between the two players, with the Manchester City players accusing Frank Lampard of a deliberately hurtful foul, while Chelsea felt it was just a normal defensive move and that there were no problems at all in this time.
Mancini jumped up angrily, Dzeko's injury just now left the field, which already made him very dissatisfied, and now, seeing Yang Fan fall to the ground, Mancini's heart is even more pinched, if Yang Fan is really injured and leaves, Mancini's heart will be broken.
The Manchester City team doctor also hurried into the field, he squeezed into the crowd, he did a preliminary examination of Yang Fan, and asked, "How is it?"
"Hissβit hurts. Yang Fan took a breath.
"Don't move. Seeing that Yang Fan was about to struggle to get up, the team doctor stopped him, he took out the spray from his bag and sprayed it violently on Yang Fan's legs. Then he made a gesture to enter the field on a stretcher, "Let the stretcher carry you down." β
"What's the matter?" Yang Fan was startled, his injuries wouldn't be serious, right?
"It's not clear. The team doctor shook his head, he just looked, the bones are fine, if it hurts, it is estimated that it is a temporary sequelae after the collision, and it will be fine after a while, but he still does not dare to take it lightly, for the sake of insurance, he still lifts away from the field first for further examination.
Yang Fan is the absolute core and banner of Manchester City, there is no room for sloppiness, the most accurate judgment must be made, if there is a little danger, Manchester City will replace Yang Fan, and will not risk Yang Fan's health.
The FA Cup is important, but a healthy Yang Fan is even more important for the Manchester City team, which is about to enter the sprint stage of the season.
"Yang Fan was carried off the field, it is not clear what happened to him, if Yang Fan is also injured, then the Manchester City team really has no one to replace in the front line......"
'I don't know if it's a new tactic for Chelsea. β
'Chelsea may have resorted to lethal tactics, which is perhaps the most direct way they can think of to keep Yang Fan at bay at the moment. Lineker said, "It's just that it's bound to be quite controversial." β
Yang Fan underwent further examination on the sidelines, and the team doctor breathed a sigh of relief, once again ruling out the possibility of bone injury and muscle strain, then the problem is simple, this is a hard pain, and when the pain passes, it will be fine.
Yang Fan took a few steps on the sidelines, then began to jog two steps and jump twice. Finally, it was determined that it was okay.
When he saw the team doctor making a gesture to enter the field on a stretcher just now, Mancini was very nervous, and when he saw Yang Fan being carried off on a stretcher, he hurriedly came over to inquire about the situation, and saw that Yang Fan seemed to be fine after walking two steps, so he was relieved.
"It's okay. Mancini asked.
"It's fine. Yang Fan said.
Yang Fan gritted his teeth and glanced back at the field, he knew that Frank Lampard had not reined in at all just now, and his opponents were now getting tougher and tougher on his defense. If it does get tackled, that's definitely what the Chelsea people would love to see.
Lethal tactics?!
Hum.
Yang Fan was enraged.
He gritted his teeth secretly, he was going to make the Chelsea people pay, he wanted to get Lao Tzu out of the game? Okay, you're me off, wait to bear my wrath!
