Chapter 225: Not giving in to each other
The two men in the Chelsea box were also relieved, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed, and Costa was still the first to rush into Manchester United's position after the game continued to kick off, but this time it was not Jones who launched the fast attack, but Fabregas next to Jones.
Fabregas, who was older but still not tired, walked quickly with the ball, and when Jones shook off Valencia, who had no time to brake, the arch of his left foot passed the ball to Jones in the run, and Jones came to the penalty area with a long-range shot, De Gea hit the ball hard with his fist, which defused the danger.
At the same time, it also reminds Manchester United's players that they are facing Chelsea, not some second- or third-rate team, and of course Manchester United will not rest on their laurels, they have relied on attacking Chelsea to lead before, and this time they still want to rely on attack to overtake the score.
"No, if you are dragged down by Manchester United, then it will be more difficult to get the game in the future, since the coach wants to take risks, then I will accompany you!"
Jones thought silently in his heart, thinking back to what Rudiger had said to him when he came on the pitch just now, and Jones had some plan in mind.
The double played in the midfield, Cahill passed to the nearest Rudiger after breaking the ball, and at this time Jones had begun to quickly insert forward, Rudiger showed his accurate left-footed technique, and kicked a long pass to Jones's running route, facing Smarin who was dragging behind, Jones stepped on the bicycle alternately left and right, Jones suddenly accelerated so that Smalling could not react.
Just when he wanted to tackle, he suddenly found that Rudiger had also been plugged in at high speed, and Smalling, who couldn't care so much, had to focus on Rudiger, so he had to let Jones continue to break through.
Jones came to the front of the penalty area, originally staring at Jones's two defenders, at this time Bailly came to save Jones, but Jones temporarily changed direction and went to the side, Bailly was hesitating Jones suddenly kicked straight to the Manchester United goal, Costa in front of the goal suddenly left Jones behind, towards the point of Jones' pass and pounced.
Because Jones was very particular about passing the ball, De Gea was not able to attack in the face of this ball, and it was not good not to attack, so in the end he had to stay in front of the goal and use his goal-line skills to see how he could save Costa's shot.
Just when David De Gea thought the dust had settled, Costa made a clever slip in front of goal and slipped the ball to the back post, where Eden Hazard was standing before no one.
Eden Hazard's effortless effort into the near corner, no matter how brave David De Gea was, could not save Hazard's close-range shot, and Chelsea once again showed their strength in the face of adversity, and in just ten minutes, Chelsea managed to take the lead thanks to two goals from Eden Hazard.
This time, the two Jones and Eden Hazard who attacked Manchester United were both in the box, and at this time, United's two wings had not yet assisted near the penalty area, and Chelsea only relied on the strength of three men to complete the attack.
"What a terrible offensive prowess! Relying on three people to end Manchester United's defense, Jones and Rudiger contributed the most in this attack, advancing to form a three-forward formation with Costa in front, leaving only N'Golo Kante alone to defend, Kodic would play such a risky lineup! It's incredible, could it be that Kodic already felt the difficulty of this game before this? ”
Mourinho looked at Kodic sitting on the sidelines of the opponent's bench, he kept guessing Kodic's intentions, he didn't expect Kodic to dare to use such a bold method, but the game showed a convincing performance, naturally it was a goal, and now the opponent has overtaken the score, which proves that the opponent's tactics are right.
With the remaining ten minutes of the game, United also played a very dangerous attack, Herrera made a tackle in midfield, he crossed the ball diagonally, Mkhitaryan met on the wing, Mkhitaryan broke through some distance with the ball, and passed the ball to Rashford, who knocked the ball to Ashley Young.
Ashley Young passed the ball to the penalty area, Lukaku did not stop the ball, directly stretched out his right leg, swept the football to the goal, Rashford rushed to the goal, tried to complete the shot, as long as he touched the football, the ball must have it, at the critical moment, Cahill is rolling and crawling to shovel the football out of the bottom line.
Chelsea fans jumped to their feet when they saw Marcus Rashford rushing behind the football line, and it was a relief to see Cahill finish clearing.
Kodic also rushed to the sidelines and roared loudly into the court: "Watch out for your people!" Don't let them pass the ball easily! Victory is ours! ”
Manchester United's attack almost scored a goal, startling Jones and them, and they finally realised that the opponent in today's game was not a team that could be assured of a one-goal lead.
A lot of Chelsea fans came to the pitch to see their side win big, but they were scared from the start of the game and now that they are finally in the lead, it is clear that Chelsea's performance in the final 10 minutes has not been satisfactory to them.
Kodic was just taken aback by United's threatening attack, and after getting up from the dugout and onto the sidelines, he didn't sit back in his seat to find out more about Mourinho's thoughts.
Jones picked up the ball up front and tried to link up with Eden Hazard, but his passing intentions were spotted by Mkhitaryan and the United centre-back fell to the ground to shovel the ball off the touchline.
Chelsea's touchline ball, Rudiger threw the ball to Cesc Fabregas, who stopped the ball on his chest and was about to control the ball at his feet, but was pulled to the ground by Herrera, who has won the attention of the Chelsea players on the pitch with his excellent performance after coming on as a substitute, and has begun to be taken seriously.
The referee came up and verbally warned Herrera, and there was a huge boo over the pitch, with Chelsea fans apparently believing that the referee should have given Herrera a yellow card.
Cesc Fabregas's free-kick into the box was met by Costa who scrambled to the ball but his header was plucked out of the air without much power.
De Gea then rushed straight to the edge of the penalty area and threw the ball vigorously at United's swift counter-attack.
Mkhitaryan received the ball thrown by the goalkeeper in the midfield near his own half, he just stopped the ball on his chest, and felt the pressure from behind him, this is Rudiger coming up to defend, the two are entangled, Rudiger's purpose is very clear, is to interfere with Mkhitaryan, not let this man quickly play, in order to achieve the purpose of delaying Manchester United's rapid counterattack.
Herrera came to answer, Mkhitaryan did not hesitate at all, he passed the football to Herrera, just this set-piece, many Chelsea players came up to participate in the attack, at this time, they are still in the defense, Herrera's side is not marked by anyone now!
