Chapter 020: Chelsea in Free Fall (Medium)

Villas-Boas frowned, after Essien scored to help Chelsea take the lead, Boas returned to the dugout to do it, and the team broke the deadlock and took the lead, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect that his ass had not yet sat firmly, and he couldn't sit still when he saw that the score was equalized so quickly!

The Portuguese coach walked to the sidelines, shouted a few times into the field, and pushed forward with both hands, which was a gesture to continue pressing.

Seeing this gesture of Boas, there was also a heated discussion in the commentary seat, and it was obvious that Boas was very determined, that is, to win the game and win Manchester City!

And the Manchester City team will naturally not be tied up, this game, so it will be very exciting.

"Villas-Boas is telling his disciples that they must continue to put pressure on Manchester City and maintain the initiative in the game! ”

Boas's tactical intent was carried through. It didn't take long for Chelsea to have a very dangerous shot on target.

Frank Lampard played the ball through to Mikel in midfield, who crossed the ball over the top to Ramires, who dribbled beautifully past Kolo Toure and passed the ball to Anelka, who pointed the ball directly to Drogba, who jumped up and headed the ball away.

Essien roared like a tank with full power, squeezed in between Colo Toure and Zabaleta and scored with a successful header!

This is a bouncing ball to the ground, such a header is very afraid of the goalkeeper, the ball bounced on the ground, Joe Hart was very embarrassed to shoot the football out of the bottom line, corner kick!

"Beautiful! Essien still got a shot from Kolo Toure and Zabaleta!"

"City's backline has to review their defence!

'Joe Hart managed to save Essien's header – Essien's impact was amazing!'

There was a sigh of regret from the stands at Stamford Bridge. Essien's performance was truly spectacular, and if it weren't for Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart's outstanding performance, the goal would have been there.

Mikel snatched the spot from Ramirez's corner into the box, his header just over the crossbar and another sigh of regret at Stamford Bridge.

The commentator is also regretting that Mikel's header was 'a fraction of a second'.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini was taken aback when Mikel's header was struck, shouting from the sidelines and reprimanding his backline for how he could have given Mikel such an easy way to get the spot.

Villas-Boas was frustrated on the sidelines, thinking he had the ball and was going to break out of the dugout to celebrate. I saw the football slightly above the crossbar.

Goal kick for Manchester City.

Joe Hart kicked the ball to Zabaleta, who took two steps and drew Anelka to come up and press it, then passed it back to goalkeeper Joe Hart, who immediately kicked the ball forward.

After Yaya Toure stopped the ball, he passed an overhead ball.

David Silva catches the ball. However, instead of continuing to dribble the ball, he passed the ball to James Milner.

James Milner received a pass from David Silva, Essing rushed up to break the ball, James Milner protected the ball, Essien couldn't break it, at this time, Yang Fan suddenly stepped forward! James Milner was waiting for Yang Fan to insert this cooperation, he was about to pass the ball, Essien saw that the situation was not good, and knew that he couldn't let James Milner pass the ball out, and the 'big buffalo' could only push James Milner down from behind.

Tactical fouls!

Referee Bol's whistle blew and he blew for a foul on Essien and showed him a yellow card.

This immediately caused extreme displeasure among the Chelsea fans at home, with a shrill boo from the stands. In the eyes of the home fans, blowing a foul is enough, and a yellow card is over...... Essien's role was crucial in the team's most important interception barrier in midfield, and now that Essien has a yellow card on him, it will make Essien a little reluctant to defend the Manchester City players in the following games.

A free kick by Manchester City.

David Silva's free-kick into the box was headed wide by Yang Fan, Colo Toure's header was saved by Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech, and Tevez wanted to make up for it, but Ashley Cole was clever enough to get the ball out of the box.

Mikel didn't dare to be careless and continued to push the ball forward to the field.

De Jong **** stopped the ball, he kicked the ball forward again, David Silva blocked Ivanovic behind him, stopped the ball with ****, Ivanovic pushed him, he fell down, the referee's whistle sounded, and the referee Bol awarded Ivanovic a foul.

Feeling wronged, Ivanovic appealed to the referee, who wagged his finger and ignored it.

City were awarded a free-kick in front of which they were well positioned.

However, the quality of Yaya Toure's free-kick was mediocre, the ball was picked up by Petr Cech, the Czech goalkeeper threw the ball directly into the attack, and Chelsea played a counter-attack, but Joe Hart did well to save Drogba's shot.

Subsequently, the Manchester City team also instigated an offensive, and Yang Fan took the ball in the frontcourt.

Yang Fan was in a predicament, because when he received the ball, because of Ashley Cole's quick up, he was not able to pull up and turn in time, which made Yang Fan now have his back to the goal! This is the least favorite situation for attackers, because they need to think about how to successfully turn around and face the goal before they can complete the shot!

Yang Fan snorted, he felt the pressure coming from behind him, it was Ashley Cole trying to break the ball from the side, Yang Fan immediately moved his feet to protect the ball.

Because it was in the penalty area, Ashley Cole didn't dare to make any big moves, he was afraid that Yang Fan would cheat the penalty.

Stepping on the football under his feet, Yang Fan felt the pressure from behind him, judged the distance between the opponent and himself, and at the same time observed the kick of Alex who came up to fill the position on the other side.

At this time, when Yang Fan was still thinking about how to turn around, he saw a figure!

The figure is on the other side of the box!

The opportunity is fleeting!

Yang Fan didn't hesitate at all, he swung his calves violently.

The ball was almost clinging to the turf and rolling to the other side of the penalty area.

Yang Fan's pass was quite sudden, so that no one in the penalty area intercepted the football, in fact, at this time, no one dared to intercept, because, at this time, any human leg that appeared on the football line could lead to a goal!

Tevez was on the left side of the box and he was flanked by John Terry.

At this moment, the football rolled against the turf!

Terry saw the soccer ball first, and he was so shocked that he was about to kick the soccer ball off the sideline.

At this time, the Chelsea captain seemed to see some kind of horror, he saw Tevez move, and the Argentine international suddenly started!

Tevez deftly pads the ball roll.

This pad is the finishing touch!

Football jumps at once!

Terry's clearance kick is empty!

Then, Terry saw the figure pass by him quickly, and he subconsciously reached out to pull it, even if it was awarded a penalty.

However, he did not pull!

Tevez is too fast!

Then, Tevez catches up with the football and shoots with his feet!

Cech subconsciously tried to pounce on the ball, but before he could make a move, the ball passed by him and he threw his head back. His eyes are always on the ball. Then he saw the ball hit the underside of the beam, slammed into the post, and then into the net...... Losing his centre of gravity, Cech fell to the ground on his back, his eyes still fixed on the ball that landed in the goal!

“!”

"2:1!! Manchester City put the score on the scoreline. ”

This goal also boosted the morale of the Manchester City team.

The game restarted, and two minutes later, City's attack returned.

De Jong passed the ball to Colo Toure, who passed the football to James Milner, James Milner passed a through ball, Yang Fan received the ball, but he didn't stop the ball, directly knocked the ball with his heel to Tevez behind him, and then he turned and ran forward.

Tevez played the ball to David Silva on the left, who played the ball forward before Frank Lampard came up to break the ball, which Yang Fan received and Essien immediately chased after him. He and Frank Lampard, who was returning to the defense, came up and wanted to steal the ball at Yang Fan's feet.

The home fans at Stamford Bridge let out loud boos when they saw Yang Fan pick up the ball in the danger zone again.

Seeing Yang Fan with the ball, Essien immediately came up to intercept. He blocked between Yang Fan and the penalty area, preventing Yang Fan from breaking into the penalty area.

Lampard, on the other hand, rushed towards Yang Fan from the other side, trying to shovel the ball at Yang Fan's feet.

Yang Fan pushed Essien with one hand, leaned back, and protected the ball in front of him.

Frank Lampard saw Essien entangled Yang Fan, he immediately exerted force at his feet, increased his speed, and he rushed directly to break the ball, even if he couldn't grab it, he could directly kick the ball off the sideline.

Just when he rushed to the ball and wanted to tackle the ball, Yang Fan immediately made a move, only to see him pull the football behind him with his right foot!

'Frank Lampard tackles...... Emptied ...... Nice action...... Yang Fan !!"

In the roar of the commentator, when Yang Fan dodged Lampard's tackle, he turned around, knocked the football forward gently, and he also leaned over, poked the football on tiptoe, and squeezed the strong Essien behind him with a flick of his hand, of course, Yang Fan himself was not very comfortable, he staggered towards the football a little.

Seeing Yang Fan break through from Essien and Frank Lampard like this, the Manchester City fans in the stands immediately erupted in unbridled screams. For them, watching Yang Fan compete is simply a pleasure.

This immediately spurred the home fans, who dominated the vast majority of the stadium, and the Chelsea fans booed even more intensely, stifling the cheers of the Manchester City fans.

"In the face of Essien and Frank Lampard, Yang Fan can still calmly make such a move, and now, he has made a breakthrough......

"Yang Fan got rid of the defenders!Chelsea's goal is in danger!!"

After protruding from the sandwich of Essien and Lampard, Yang Fan directly made a through ball, Tevez inserted it at high speed, and singled it out!

"Beautiful pass!"

"Wonderful pass-and-cut cooperation!"

Tevez ...... City's chance!"

After receiving the ball, Tevez did not continue to dribble the ball, but shot directly with his foot, which caught Alex, who came up to intercept, by surprise, and he quickly fell to the ground to tackle.

However, it was not able to stop the shot.

Cech couldn't do anything about the shot, and the ball flew into the net almost from his left-hand side, grazing his left hand. He didn't get to touch the football.

3:1! Manchester City extended the score.

"!!! 3:1!!The goal is scored again!!Manchester City has exceeded the score by two goals!It's incredible, from 0:1 down to 3:1 ahead, Manchester City scored three goals in a row!"

'The goal is in, Manchester City are the next goal, they are now 3-1 up at Chelsea, it was Carlos Tevez who scored, and the Argentine scored twice in the first half!' said the commentator.

Villas-Boas was on the sidelines, and when the Manchester City team scored, he was discussing the situation on the field with his assistant just now, and when he looked up, he saw that Manchester City had actually scored again, which made Boas very angry, from 1:0 to 1:3, it was like a nightmare. Trailing Manchester City by two goals means it will be very difficult for Chelsea to win the game, and even an equaliser will not be so easy!

What's more, Villas-Boas can see that the morale of the current Manchester City team is very high, and it is possible to continue to score goals if they don't get it right! On the football field, facing a team that plays smoothly and crazy, this is the most terrifying!

"Great game!!"

"Great Manchester City! they're getting more mature now!"

"Yang Fan is worthy of the banner of Manchester City, he is now in this team, not only can he score, his existence is a threat to the opponent!

"Great Manchester City!"

"We are invincible, we are invincible!" was the cheers of the Manchester City fans in the stands at Stamford Bridge, who gathered into a fiery lava. Chelsea's home stadium is not so easy to overcome, before this game, Manchester City fans have the awareness that this will be a tough battle, especially when they conceded a goal at the beginning, they didn't expect their team to be so strong, and actually scored three goals in a row to reverse the score!

Manchester City fans are proud of their team!
