In the lounge, Schalke's players were nervously changing their equipment, while Magath was quickly arranging his tactical arrangements in front. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

'They obviously want to block Ivan and then use Drogba as a fulcrum to counter-attack, so we have to step up our attack in the second half. Fuchs, my request to you is very simple, that is, not to get involved in the attack up front, to cooperate fully with Gundogan in the middle, to lock Drogba outside the box, and not to give him another chance. Joaquín and Juan Mata want the two of you to dribble the ball more, especially laterally at the edge of the opposition box, and let them foul in those positions, as long as we have a free kick it is enough to take them out completely. Ai Huan, my request to you is simpler, that is, no matter what the situation is, you are not allowed to return to our half court to participate in the defense, you only have one task is to keep attacking. ”

Fifteen minutes was not a long time, as if it was over in the blink of an eye, and when the group returned to the pitch they were surprised to find that it was raining even heavier outside.

"We're here to conquer here, so let's show them what a real rush midfield is. The players formed a circle in their own half, and Ai Huan said loudly in the middle of it, and the players responded with a bang, and then they returned to their positions to prepare for the second half of the game.

At half-time, Di Matteo did not change his style of play, he thought that his first half was in place, so he was ready to continue with the first half in the second half.

But what Chelsea didn't expect was that Schalke launched a ferocious attack after the start of the second half, which made Chelsea look very uncomfortable.

In the 47th minute, Juan Mata passed the ball and Raul's powerful shot was blocked by Cahill. In the 50th minute, Joaquín passed, Mata's shot from the left side of the penalty area was blocked by Ivanovic in the near corner, Ai Huan suddenly started to snatch the football at the bottom line, and passed back at the first time, Mata won the ball and broke through to the edge of the penalty area after the curling shot was saved by Cech. In the 55th minute, Raul played the ball and Mata's breakthrough shot was blocked by Cahill's flying tackle. Cahill then made a mistake on the edge of the box, but he turned and scrambled to clear before Joaquin stepped up to shoot.

With less than 10 minutes to play, Chelsea were beaten with confidence, much to the displeasure of the fans and the shouting of Di Matteo from the sidelines, but there was nothing they could do about it. The split of three men in midfield also made Juan Mata and Joaquín look at ease, and the repeated tugging of the two did put a lot of pressure on Chelsea.

Di Matteo also found this problem, the most incredible thing for him is that Ai Huan is still in motion, and his movement is not to pull out the space to support his teammates, this style of play continues Chelsea will definitely have big problems, but Di Matteo does not dare to change or change the style of play, after all, it has now formed a scorch, if Ai Huan is activated, then the consequences will be immeasurable.

Schalke's attack was still frantic and in the 56th minute they found another opportunity. Ai Huan's run pulled out a gap Joaquin went straight into the box for the first time, and Mata quickly counter-cut to form a one-on-one, but his push was unfortunately deflected off the right post.

Two minutes later, Crishitto crossed from the left side of the box and Juan Mata met the ball on the right-hand edge of the box and fired wide again.

In the 59th minute, Chelsea finally had the time to counter-attack, when Frank Lampard received a pass from the back and broke through to the edge of the box, and as soon as he made contact with Fuchs, he immediately fell to the ground, and Gundogan, who came to assist the defence, cleanly tackled the ball out. However, after going out of bounds, they asked the referee to show Frank Lampard a yellow card, but the referee ignored him.

On the other hand, Frank Lampard also complained that Fuchs had moved, and the players on both sides surrounded the referee and complained loudly, but the referee chose to remain silent, and only gave verbal warnings to the loudest shouts of the players on both sides, which also made the players on both sides seem very excited.

In the 64th minute, Mata forced a breakthrough, Mikel did not succeed in stopping the opponent's advance, and when he saw that Mata had crossed the ball and was about to enter the ban, he had to reach out and touch the football, and then quickly drove the football out of the penalty area.

The foul, although hidden, did not escape the referee's eyes, and the whistle blew immediately - a free kick. Magath had jumped up from the dugout with excitement, and there was nothing wrong with scoring in this position, which was simply a surprise for Schalke.

Of course, Ai Huan's free-kick ability is not a secret weapon that no one knows about, Chelsea have always tried to avoid fouling in front of their own because the opponent's free-kick is so powerful, but now the free-kick in this position immediately makes the Chelsea players nervous.

Chelsea's captain Frank Lampard immediately rushed to the referee, although he had nothing to say about the handball just now, but he also had something to say, directly pointing out that Mata had a pulling action when he passed, which was already a preemptive foul, but the referee did not take his statement, so it was meaningless to talk for a long time.

At this time, Ai Huan was already standing in front of the ball, and he was still looking up at the sky as usual, as if he was thinking about something. Frank Lampard, on the other hand, suddenly felt a deep sense of horror when he saw this, this guy seemed to be harmless, but in fact he was secretly murderous, and it seemed that the only way to stop his goal was to make a move.

In fact, when the slogan appeared at the end of the first half, Ai Huan's reaction had been seen by many people at Chelsea, these are all human spirits, who have been immersed in the stadium for many years, and immediately knew that Ai Huan was a frizzy personality like all his peers, but many people couldn't see it, so now he only thinks about one thing, that is, to provoke him and make this young man mess up, and only in this way can he stop this free kick.

After he left the referee's side, he did not immediately return to his defensive area, but came directly to the vicinity of Ai Huan, and said in a small but absolutely clear voice, "You Chinese monkey only deserves to be with the bus, what did you inferior people call before, by the way, East Asian sick man, hehe, that's a good point, but you can also find a woman like Taylor." ”
