Chapter 522: The Old Problem of the Backline

William got up with his right foot directly, and it was a volley!

Volley on the line of the penalty area!

Diame hurriedly turned sideways to block, and Jones quickly lowered his head, afraid that he was blocking the ball.

Willian's volley made a beautiful arc and the ball flew around everyone's heads towards the top left corner of the goal.

William's shot was so sudden, who would have thought that he would be on the penalty line, stop the ball and turn around, it was a volley?!

Rabravka was unprepared for this shot, and by the time he moved his body to save the ball, it was too late!

By the time his body flew out, the ball had grazed the underside of the crossbar and into the Newcastle goal.

"The ball is in! Chelsea's counter-attack was a success! William! William! Chelsea take the lead again on the road! ”

"Oooo It was a great shot, a beautiful goal, a volley after a stop on the line of the box! It's completely impossible for Dubravka to save on this ball! ”

"2 to 1! Chelsea are leading again! The goal was scored by Willian, who started again. ”

At the end of the first half, the score was 3-1 and Chelsea doubled the lead in first-half stoppage time.

Jones, who was cruising on the left side of the penalty area, raised his hand to ask for the ball, and Bakayoko saw it and passed it straight over.

Jones was about to catch the ball when Newcastle's two centre-backs, Russell and Lejeine, ran desperately towards him.

The ball rolled against the ground, Jones didn't stop the ball, he just pushed it with the arch of his foot, and the ball passed right between Lascelles and Lejene.

"Jones' accurate pass!" The narrator exclaimed in admiration.

Jones' through ball tore through Newcastle's defence, and everyone thought he would carry the ball forward, but suddenly chose to pass.

Costado rushed from the left, he rushed to the front of the football and fired a straight volley!

The ball flew up, grazing the right hand of Newcastle goalkeeper Bella Bluffka into the top corner of the net, before landing a few seconds later.

Jones, after the pass, stood there and watched, and when he saw Costa score the ball, he just waved his arm and didn't make much of a celebratory gesture.

However, Costa rushed to Jones after scoring the goal: "You have a good pass!" Then he put his hand on Jones's shoulder, and William came running over and put his hand on Costa's shoulder, and the three of them walked back towards the center circle as they spoke.

"Costa's shot is very decisive, he is very confident in his footwork, he has a lot of power on goal, in recent games, Costa's goal count has obviously skyrocketed, but he has the most to thank Jones, Jones's pass is always so timely, directly tearing apart the opponent's defense."

After the center circle continued to kick off, dozens of seconds later, Atkinson blew, and the whistle at the end of the first half, Newcastle manager Benist walked to the dressing room with a blue face, and the camera gave the manager a close-up.

'It is conceivable that the players waiting for Newcastle in the dressing room will certainly not be praised. The narrator teased.

He was right, in the dressing room, Benist scolded all the players, except for Perez, who scored the goal, everyone was scolded, especially the players in the midfield were criticized by Benist one by one.

In the Chelsea dressing room, there was laughter and laughter, and although Newcastle equalised at the opening time, the team then scored twice in a row to extend the advantage to two goals.

Chelsea are now in their game and they are confident they will win this game.

Kodic praised the performance of the whole team and asked them to build on the second half according to the set tactics and try to score another goal to seal the win.

Ten minutes later, assistant coach O'Ssi came to see that the time was almost up and reminded the players that they were ready to return to the field.

Jones didn't leave the locker room right away, he deliberately dragged it to the end, and he approached Kodic and expressed his desire to play the full game today.

After a little consideration of Jones's request, Kodic nodded in agreement, and he had planned to replace Jones to rest after sealing the win in the second half.

Since the player himself asked to play, and given the special nature of this game for Jones, it was the final game of his first season in the Premier League, he naturally nodded in agreement.

Benist adjusted his tactics in the second half, asking his players to press more in midfield, and in the final stages of the first half, Chelsea played a fluid combination that Benist could not accept.

He knows that for a team like Chelsea, you can't let them play smoothly and play comfortably, otherwise, Newcastle will die ugly in the end.

Newcastle stepped up their pressing after the start of the second half, and of course, he arranged the players to press in this way, which was also very effective.

Chelsea's attack was not very smooth after the start of the game, whether it was N'Golo Kante or Tiemoue Bakayoko, no matter who got the ball up front, they often faced two Newcastle players alone, and Chelsea began to concede goals frequently in midfield.

In this case, Jones could not get support from his teammates in the box, and he had to withdraw from the box, and even retreated to his own half to ask for the ball.

The clock ticked down and the score remained at 3-1, with Newcastle trailing behind.

For Chelsea, who are on the leading side, it is a good scoreline, as long as they win the game and get the three points, it is a victory.

However, it is not a good thing for Newcastle, in this game, Newcastle's goal is to prevent Chelsea from winning the title undefeated, and now it is difficult to draw, and now, to get a point is a victory.

Benister looked restless on the sidelines, and he looked at the clock as the clock went on to 66 minutes, and he pressed forward to increase his team's attack.

Gayle's long-range shot from outside the box sent a cry out to the Chelsea fans and Thibaut Courtois made a brilliant save that sent the ball off the line and Newcastle awarded a corner.

Newcastle's corner was a tactical corner, Diame kicked the ball to Rich, who took two steps and suddenly knocked the ball back with his heel, and Chervi did not stop the ball and hoisted the ball directly into the box.

The pass caused chaos in the Chelsea penalty area, and in the midst of a scuffle, a figure rushed up and Perez jumped high to head home.

"Be careful! Stop him! ”

Perez didn't jump on the spot, but rushed in from the outside, jumping higher than anyone else, and a beautiful lion shook his head in the air.

Courtois couldn't do anything about this header, and the football went into the net!

When Kodic saw the goal go in, he yelled, "Damn it! Why didn't anyone defend that guy? ”

Perez rushed in from the outside to head the ball, that's not the point, the point of the problem is that there is no one around Perez to defend?!

Obviously, Chelsea's defence has had a lot of problems in defending this corner.
