Chapter Seventy-Eight: Champions League Hat-trick

The fifteen-minute halftime break quickly passed amid the chatter of fans.

Once both players have taken their feet on the pitch and the opening whistle blows, the game resumes.

In the first half, Chelsea's attack was fierce, otherwise Qarabag would not have been scored three goals in a row, Qarabag has been blinded, Chelsea have been attacking so fiercely, they don't even have a chance to play defensive counterattacks.

They were in a hurry to return a goal, and naturally there would be some gaps behind them, and after Jones took advantage of them, they caused a couple of dangerous shots, and they suddenly even retracted the idea of returning a goal, and began to shrink the half-court defense.

It didn't take long, in the 58th minute, Jones launched an attack on the left side with the ball, in a small space, and Costa Pedro 3 people quickly passed back and forth, found a vacancy, and then Pedro stuffed it straight to Jones, Jones continued to dribble forward, and passed to Costa with little chance, Costa in the penalty area grabbed the point successfully, the ball did not land, and he shot directly, the shot hit the left post and bounced into the goal, and Costa, who scored again, raised his thumbs up to Jones who passed the ball to him, And ran to Jones.

"I also scored two goals, and the fifth goal will be my first, haha. ”

"Costa, you scored a beautiful goal, but the fifth goal was definitely my first."

But neither the referee nor the linesman paid any attention to the frantic celebrations of the Chelsea players.

"No offside! Jones a nice straight stopper! Costa catches the ball and shoots it with a kick! The ball bounced off the post and into the back of the net,' exclaimed the Chelsea commentator excitedly.

With the crowd cheering on from the fans, the game continued!

This goal was followed by a 55th-minute shot from where an Qarabag player broke down the left and fired a long-range shot that was saved by Courtois.

The fourth official held up a substitution sign on the sidelines, and Segura stood next to Kodic, who was warm and waiting to be substituted.

This new situation was broadcast, and the commentator after seeing it: "Saigura is going to be replaced!" I don't know who was substituted! This adjustment is that after Chelsea has basically won this game, if the best teammate with Jones on the bench is Segura, it is definitely a good candidate for them to play together! And the substitution of Segura meant that Chelsea did not give up on attacking. ”

The neutral commentator also affirmed Kodic's substitution: "In the situation that the game has basically been won now, substitute Segura played, Segura and Jones' partner has performed very well in every game, in the case of the team scored three goals in the first half, after scoring one in the second half, Chelsea did not give up the attack, which really made this game have the desire to continue watching." ”

'The player who was replaced by Segura was Pedro.

This substitution adjustment was already thought out in the locker room, so Kodic didn't think much about it.

The fourth official held up the sign and told everyone that Chelsea had made a second substitution, and after Segura and Pedro had handed over, they jogged straight onto the pitch.

Chelsea, who replaced Pedro and brought on Segura, did not change the formation, it was still the original 433 formation.

So from the time Segura came on, Chelsea basically laid siege to Qarabag's goal and took turns to shoot.

In the face of the Chelsea team's continuous attack, Qarabag's defense is a problem, basically the players are in their own half, only a lone striker in front, there is no chance of counterattack.

In the 60th minute of the second half, Jones feigned a breakthrough on the left flank, then pulled the ball back with his left foot, and then he played a long right-footed pass to Costa, who grabbed the landing spot and jumped up with a header that went just wide of the crossbar.

In the 64th minute, Jones sent a through ball, he found Costa accurately, Costa rushed into the box with the ball, and the shot was deflected wide again.

Cesc Fabregas passed the ball to Jones in the middle circle, but he did not accelerate to stop the ball, but began to adjust his pace, and before a big stride, he just adjusted his pace to the most suitable rhythm, and then he picked up his right foot! Shoot straight away without stopping! Jones spotted the goalkeeper standing up front and played to his long-range strengths.

He rubbed the soccer ball on the inside of his right foot, and the ball flew up, arcing in the air and turning directly into the back corner of the goal!

"Jones catches the ball, no, it's a long-range shot!"

"The door rose into the air and stretched his arm to the limit, but he couldn't touch the football! After the football overtook him, it quickly fell and flew into the goal! ”

"Jones! Jones! In the 68th minute, he doubled the score for Chelsea! A perfect long-range shot! A direct long-range shot without stopping the ball! Now Chelsea has slaughtered Qarabag with 5 goals, and it is also the third goal of Jones's Champions League debut, and there was a hat trick on his Champions League debut, Jones won two records in this game, a record for the youngest player to score a goal on the debut of an English player in the Champions League, and broke the record for the youngest player to score a hat trick on Rooney's Champions League debut, and the second half only started twenty-three minutes! And he also has two assists, and one more assist, which is a double hat, I'm afraid it's an unprecedented record."

Rooney in September 2004, 18-year-old Rooney became the most expensive player under the age of 20 in world football, the former Everton supernova and now returning to Everton, in the Champions League group stage that season ushered in the Champions League career debut and individual Champions League debut, he scored three goals and also provided an assist, at 18 years and 335 days to become the youngest player in Champions League history to complete a hat-trick.

'Now Jones has broken Wayne Rooney's record for the youngest hat-trick on his Champions League debut, and the player who is more likely to score a hat-trick with a goal assist because there are 25 minutes left in the game, so let's wait and see.'

As the ball flew into the goal, the pitch erupted in a huge cheer that swept over everyone on the pitch and seemed like a shot in the arm to the Chelsea players.

The cheers sounded like a mockery to the Qarabag players, who were slaughtered by Chelsea in their first Champions League game, and they were stunned in England, where the fans are most fanatical, and at Chelsea's home stadium.

For a moment, their confidence was shaken, and they felt that they were really lucky to enter the Champions League, and they had already scored six goals, but they sobered up in the shouting reminder of their captain, and we had the backbone to lose if we lost, and the game was not over yet, so why did we collapse first.

After completing his Champions League hat-trick, Jones ran to the sidelines and hugged Kodic, "Thank you, coach, for allowing me to continue playing on the pitch and for believing in me. ”
