At the end of the first half, the score was still 1-1, and although Arsenal pressed Chelsea, they could not find the back of the net.

In fact, the foul tactics are abandoned, but Chelsea's tenacious defence is still the best in world football, and it is not inferior to the Serie A clubs that started with defense.

Quaresma was not strong enough to break through the entire Chelsea team in tight spaces, and several breaches were strangled in Chelsea's extremely compressed space, to no avail.

However, Quaresma didn't care too much, after all, the situation is strong for Arsenal, if the second half continues to play at this pace, I'm afraid it will be Arsenal who will have the last laugh.

A draw is enough for Arsenal!

With a 10-point lead over Chelsea on points and the Blues playing at home, how could they not want to beat Chelsea to close the gap?

On the contrary, Arsenal can accept a draw, at least the lead is not narrowed, and that is enough.

And, once Arsenal continue to press Chelsea strongly in the second half, Arsene Wenger could have put Bam Adebayor in the box and put more pressure on Chelsea's goal, who says they can't break the Blues' goal?

The Arsenal players walked off the pitch with relaxed expressions on their faces and withstood the pressure to equalise, which was enough to make the players happy.

From time to time, Quaresma looked at Mourinho and wondered what the Magic Bird would do.

It has to be said that Quaresma really failed to pose a threat to the Chelsea goal when Chelsea fouled him.

Jose Mourinho's team is a suitable whetstone, constantly sharpening himself and allowing himself to grow.

If you always play without pressure, how can you have a sense of urgency to improve?

Maybe if you run a little faster, break through a little more fluently, have a more advanced sense of prevention, etc., can you be more comfortable in front of Chelsea's strangulation tactics?

At least against Chelsea, Quaresma realised he had a lot to learn and a lot to learn.

For some reason, he's looking forward to his next meeting with Chelsea.

The Blues probably won't be more extreme defending themselves in the second half, so how will Mourinho let his players defend themselves next time?

……

After a midfield change, Chelsea did not stay passive, avoiding Arsenal's attack, and the Blues at home would never let Arsenal have the last laugh.

The two teams were once again battling it out in midfield, as if they were back at the start of the first half, as if that was the most important aspect of the game.

However, the difference is that Arsenal are always careful of Chelsea's raids, and it was with this hand that Chelsea took the lead in the first half, and if they were planted in this pit again, Arsenal would simply be laughed out.

Quaresma was a little silent, on the one hand, he did need to recover his physical fitness, in the first half he frequently ran to catch the ball, and was violated by the opponent countless times, and the physical consumption was quite serious.

Even if Quaresma's physical fitness is no longer a shortcoming, he is by no means an iron man type, and he needs to take a breath when he is tired.

On the other hand, the midfielders don't need much of Quaresma's strength in the scramble, and everyone knows that his defense is a pitfall.

Not only can he not defend his opponent, but he may also drag his teammates back, so as long as it is not Quaresma's strong request, his teammates are not very welcome Quaresma to run to his own defense area and pose as if he will not retreat.

However, Quaresma is well aware that the fierce battle in midfield is only a façade, and the climax will soon come.

Arsenal need themselves, so he needs to be at his best.

When the game came to about 70 minutes into the second half, the two teams were once again facing a period of physical exhaustion, and this was the time when many teams wanted to grit their teeth and exert their strength.

Jose Mourinho was the first to make a change, with Andriy Shevchenko coming on to play with Didier Drogba in a two-striker formation.

The madman's thinking is simple and straightforward, and since Arsenal are used to defending against Drogba, Shevchenko, who wants to be more flexible in defending during the period of physical exhaustion, is definitely a problem for the Arsenal defence.

At the same time, the removal of Malouda is also to avoid tragedy, as the first line of defense to defend Quaresma, Malouda simply cannot withstand such pressure, Malouda, who has already carried a yellow card, if he is not careful, there is a danger of being sent off with a red card.

The substitution laid bare Mourinho's determination to win, and the Blues fans in the stands couldn't help but cheer in unison, which is the true spirit of the Blues.

It's just that they may have overlooked something.

The fierce scramble left everyone in a period of exhaustion at about the same time, however, there was one man who had been paddling since the start of the second half, and that person was clearly Quaresma.

While others were in a state of physical exhaustion, Quaresma had already regained his energy, just as Popeye had just eaten a jar full of spinach, or Ebué had just eaten a bunch of bananas......

In short, the vitality is infinite!

Chelsea want to take advantage of this opportunity to get Arsenal, and likewise, Quaresma is also thinking of using this opportunity to get Chelsea!

So, whose shield is stronger?

Whose spear is sharper?

Quaresma didn't know, he just knew that he just wanted to score and no one could stop him!

It was Chelsea who were the first to show the killing, still failing to get past midfield, and the direct link between the back line and the forward line once again smashed the ball over the Arsenal penalty area.

Drogba stalked Campbell and Gallas to the extent that the beastly power made both Arsenal defenders work together to lose the upper hand.

But in the end, Drogba is indeed the point that attracts firepower, and the real killing machine is on Shepchenko.

The nimble movement in the Ukrainian nuclear warhead penalty area allowed him to escape Klich's marking, leap high and flick his head at goal, and almost headed the ball into the Arsenal goal.

If it weren't for Lehmann, who is getting older and more demonic, reacted in time and hastily reached out to block Shevchenko's shot, Arsenal would have fallen behind again.

The Chelsea fans in the stadium let out cries of regret and countless people covered their heads in disbelief, and it was unbelievable that there was no goal from such close range.

Shevchenko's face completely lost color, as if it had been petrified, and it hit him too hard.

When he came to the Premier League, he was not suitable for the environment here, and he was a European Ballon d'Or winner, but he could not get a starting position, which was absolutely unacceptable to the arrogant Shevchenko.

He tried hard to take advantage of one of the few opportunities he had to prove himself, and now that he was hit like this, Shevchenko couldn't help but want to flee the Premier League.

Jose Mourinho was a bit frustrated, and although Lehmann's save was brilliant, Shevchenko was absolutely responsible for not converting such a close-range shot into a goal.

But now, the Blues don't have time to criticize Shevchenko because Arsenal are coming back from the side.

Quaresma has been waiting for one such opportunity, one that allows him to break through the blockade with impunity.

Lehmann's save was met by Klich, who immediately sent the ball to Ballack, who did not stick to the ball and knew exactly where the most dangerous point of the Arsenal counter-attack was.

When Quaresma picked up the ball again on the left, the Chelsea half was empty, and in front of Quaresma, with only Ferreira defending, John Terry and Carvalho in the middle, there were actually only three opponents left for Quaresma.

There is a trademark cynical smile on his face, and there is a hint of mystery in the smile, and even a little bit of banter.

Please start your show!

If someone makes a gesture of invitation to Quaresma at this time, then Quaresma will definitely not refuse his kindness, because Quaresma is ready to perform!

There is no need to commit a foul at this time, even if it results in one less player for Chelsea for the rest of the game, but Quaresma still feels it makes more sense to score now.

So, go on a sprint!

He wanted to put in his mouth some roar like Tarzan the ape-man, primitive and wild, or the neighing of a horse on the prairie, he was a wild fellow.

The speed is rapidly improved, the ball is like a naughty elf, dancing playfully, without the rules and regulations of constraints, and without the rigor of formulas, artistic and full of imagination.

His dribbling seemed to be spiritual, wonderful, and intoxicating, as if such dribbling was inherently unobstructed.

Ferreira came up and had to stop Quaresma, and even though he had faith in Carvalho and Terry, he didn't want to leave the trouble to his team-mates.

Danger is to be strangled in the cradle.

Left?

Or on the right?

Ferreira faced Quaresma's deceptive feints and couldn't tell where Quaresma's next step would be.

But I saw Quaresma smiling at the corner of his mouth, his feet kept moving, and he had achieved the ultimate precision of ball control between dialing and smashing the ball.

Finally, the shaking of the center of gravity of the body took away Ferreira's center of gravity, but the ball broke through in the other direction with his feet, and Quaresma made Ferreira, who was known for his defense, helpless.

Ferreira secretly screamed badly, turned around and reached out to grab Quaresma, but he didn't want Quaresma to be explosive at this moment, making Ferreira's movements completely meaningless.

After underplaying Ferreira, Quaresma was already dribbling diagonally towards Chelsea's ribs, already cheering himself up – there were two left.

At the edge of the penalty area, it was about to reach Quaresma's range, and Terry rushed up regardless of it, he had to intercept Quaresma and not give Quaresma space and angle to shoot.

However, Quaresma didn't think about shooting past Chelsea's two centre-backs, knowing that the opponent would not give him such an easy chance.

Therefore, Quaresma slowed down his sprint and pressed towards the penalty area with the ball, his center of gravity still shaking non-stop, putting pressure on Terry.

At this time, Carvalho also pressed up, he was very cautious and would not give Quaresma a chance to wear a sugar gourd, so he had to form a defensive linkage with Terry, rather than being passed by Quaresma one after another.

The two in front of him have formed a sandwich situation, and Quaresma is not surprised, he also knows that this is the biggest challenge.

If you get through this hurdle, the goal is close at hand, and if you can't break through, everything you have done before will be meaningless.

There are always countless difficulties on the road in life, no matter what, the road must go on, even if the difficulties are difficult, there is absolutely no turning back.

Now there are no teammates who can pick him up, so he has to come on his own.

Sharp-eyed and cool-headed, Quaresma's left foot stepped over the ball, and his right foot stepped over the ball at any moment, two consecutive cycling movements that seemed random, but they touched the center of gravity of Terry and Carvalho.

Suddenly, Quaresma kicked his right foot in front of him, as if trying to dodge a shot angle from the right side, and then went straight to the goal.

Carvalho moved to block and deny Quaresma space to shoot, and Terry followed, with quick movement allowing the two to form a link again.

It's just that in the next second, Quaresma immediately dunked the ball back with the inside of his right foot, and his body center of gravity also moved to the left side, changing from facing Carvalho's defense head-on to facing Terry's defense head-on.

Flick the tail of the cow!

Once again, Quaresma controlled the ball at his feet with a very artistic move, which was mesmerizing!

However, this is just the beginning!

Because of this tail flick, there will inevitably be a deviation in the linkage position between Terry and Carvalho, and the gap in the middle has been magnified, and Quaresma seized this opportunity, as if hitting a poisonous snake's attack from seven inches, precise and fast.

The right foot poked the ball from behind the left leg and slammed it forward like a cheetah, and the ball crossed the space between Terry and Carvalho.

The dazzling, fancy, yet practical, and dazzling footsteps of the ox's tail flick are the backdrop for the two world's top centre-backs, who are set against the dazzling light of Quaresma.

The exclamations that rang out across Stamford Bridge proved Quaresma's breakthrough was incredible, and the three defenders who were dragging behind were all shaken by Quaresma, leaving only the final goal in sight.

Even though there were countless people praying to God at this time, hoping that Quaresma would waste this single sword, there were some things that even God could not do.

Against Chelsea's veteran goalkeeper Joo Cudicini, Quaresma snuggled past and slotted the ball into the back of the net with incredible accuracy, making it feel like a nap.

The ball went in.

2:1

Quaresma rushed to the midfield with a sprint speed that was not inferior to that of his previous moment, rushing towards his teammates, his clenched fists waving vigorously, like a hen protecting her chicks, and her excited roar could not be suppressed.
