Chapter 528: Don't let people see jokes
Real gold is not afraid of fire to refine, after all, the real ability must be reflected in the competition.
No matter how badly the media scolded before the game, and no matter how beautiful Mourinho praised it, once he got on the field, then these things had to be completely put aside, and he could only play wholeheartedly.
Roma is the host, Chelsea is the guest!
There are no delicious food and lively banquets on the field, some are just dismounted!
Roma's start was fantastic, and this one made the game more suspenseful than before.
Less than five minutes into the game, Chelsea conceded a goal.
It was a slightly strange situation, as Branislav Ivanovic was passing the ball unmarked, but suddenly his feet slipped and he fell straight to the ground, and the ball was snatched by Gervinho on the side.
Gervinho didn't care that Ivan was lying on the ground and didn't get up, this was the best time to score, and as long as the referee didn't blow a timeout, he wouldn't stop.
Gervinho, who grabbed the ball, cut directly to the edge of the penalty area, and then shot at goal, the ball was very powerful, and the angle was also very tricky, but with Cech's ability, it was still possible to pounce, but what I never expected was that there were branches in the middle.
Worried that Cech would not be able to get the ball, the heroic Luiz stepped forward to block a kick, which was supposed to be his active defense and commendable efforts, but the problem was that he did not completely block the ball, but let the ball bounce on his leg and then run into the goal.
This ejection completely changed the original trajectory of the ball. Even if Cech was ten years younger, he probably wouldn't have been able to pounce. What's more, his current state and strength can't be compared with when he was young.
The moment the ball bounces into the goal. The Roma players were celebrating like a big year, but Luis was like a kid who had done something wrong, a little overwhelmed.
For the purpose of unity, Cech did not blame Luiz, but Luis himself couldn't pass his own level, what is this, it was simply an inexplicable loss of the ball, and it can't be explained.
From Ivanovic's inexplicable fall to Louis's painting of snakes. Two dramatic things that shouldn't have happened, and the results have happened, maybe it's just luck.
At this time, Ivanovic has stood up, and it seems that it is not a big problem, but the ground is indeed a little slippery today, and it did not rain, but the Roma club sprinkled the stadium with water before the game, but obviously it was a bit too much, although such an impact was on both sides. However, it seems that Roma's players have been mentally prepared for a long time, so they are more careful when playing, while Chelsea's players are not mentally prepared, which ultimately led to Ivanovic's undeserved mistake.
'It came so quickly. It looks like Roma really have a chance of qualifying! They just need to score one more goal now! What a ball! Then you can knock out Chelsea and advance to the last four! ”
"After Gervinho moved from Arsenal to Roma, it seemed like he had suddenly opened his mind. He's getting better and better, too good to be true. Today he won the first place for Rome, and I don't know what Lin Yu, who is worth much more than him, will think. ”
"What do you say? Now Roma only need to patiently organize the attack, take advantage of Chelsea's defensive holes, and score another goal is not impossible, and there are almost 90 minutes left in the game, which is very early. ”
'Haha, I wonder if Chelsea will blame the bad pitch after the loss, haven't they complained about the referee before.'
"Definitely, there was a bit of a problem with the venue today, and they had a reason to complain, but as a strong team, it would be a loss of grace to complain after a loss."
It didn't count as an own goal, it counted as a goal for Gervinho, but either way, the truth was that Chelsea conceded a goal.
The excited Gervinho ran to the sidelines and hugged their head coach Rudi Garcia, and the excitement was like a declaration to the whole world that the unity of our Roma is unmatched.
Mourinho's brows furrowed, although it was not a big problem to lose a goal, but this bad field was something he did not expect, because the water was sprinkled before the game, and he didn't have it when he adapted to the field before, these damn Romans actually made such a trick.
However, as a manager, there is not much he can do to change the situation now, the game is only five minutes, there is still more time left, he can't replace the errant Ivanovic and Luiz at this time, and to do so is undoubtedly a serious blow to the players' self-confidence, and even a provocation to their self-esteem, a wise manager would never do that.
He thought about it carefully, anyway, it's only been five minutes now, in fact, with the strength of Chelsea, there are still many chances to equalize, as long as the equalizer is achieved, then the advantage will immediately return to his side, not to mention that Roma's goal is not how strong they are, it is purely a mistake to pick up the leak, as long as their defenders know this lesson and perform more calmly in the next game, then there is absolutely no problem.
His players are not little children, a goal is beaten to the north, this is a championship team, a championship team that has encountered countless difficulties, what has not happened?
He just recorded the mistake in his notebook and continued to sit and watch the game.
After the game restarted, the stands on the stadium were full of laughter, and the media seats were also discussing Gervinho's goal, and it seemed that Gervinho became the hottest focus of the game, while Lin Yu and others were dwarfed.
The goal gave Roma a very high morale boost and they seemed to be alive with a single-minded desire to score another goal and then knock out Chelsea.
However, they were right to boost their morale, but the goal was a boost for Chelsea, not a negative one. It's absolutely positive.
For Chelsea, Roma came to win in the game. Now only one goal has been conceded, which will only boost their fighting spirit. Whether it is Lin Yu, Hazard, Schurrle or Oscar, there will be no time to sigh at this time, the game is still going on, it is only five minutes.
The celebration in Rome has nothing to do with them, and the huge boos are not stressful, but for players who have experienced various games, boos are nothing, and they have long been commonplace.
What's more, Lin Yu has also experienced devil training in the ball king cultivator that is more terrible than death, and he can even endure the pain of being pierced through the heart. A mere goal conceded is really nothing.
Of course, this has something to do with Mourinho's previous lectures in the dressing room.
Jose Mourinho said at the time: "Everyone said we wanted to win two consecutive titles in a dream and the media waited to see our jokes, UEFA waited to see our jokes, the so-called bricks who only relied on lip service were waiting to see our jokes, and Bayern Munich, who were beaten by us last season, they were also waiting for our jokes, now tell me." Do you want to be the laughing stock of others, or do you want to be heroes? ”
Needless to say, no one wants to be the laughing stock of others, and this is not just a football issue. It's about the dignity of men.
Because of this, for the dignity of men, in order not to be laughed at. Chelsea can only fight desperately for their own qualification.
On the pitch, there was no panic and loss of confidence after conceding the goal, but some of them worked harder. and a more serious attitude towards football.
Even though the site was slippery, it was actually much better than on a rainy day. Just be careful and don't have to worry about wrestling again, and Mourinho told his players through Frank Lampard that it would be better to have less dribbling and more direct and crisp passes and long-range shots.
When the pitch is slippery, the ball will naturally become slippery, so the probability of a long-range goal will be very high. Mourinho's arrangement, that's certainly right.
Rudi Garcia, who was sitting only three or five meters away from Mourinho, was a little disappointed, he originally intended to see Chelsea's panic, Mourinho's anger, and the one-sided situation on the pitch, but he didn't see it, what he saw was a more efficient, more stable, more serious Chelsea, which made him feel a little headache, no wonder Chelsea could win the Champions League final last season in such a difficult situation, and it really made sense.
Could it have been a catalyst for the morale of the Chelsea players?
Rudy Garcia gritted his teeth, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, but there is no way, it seems that this ball can stimulate the morale of his players, so it's okay, it's useless to think about it superfluously.
Like the Chelsea players, their fans have not lost faith in the team despite regretting a goal, and after following Chelsea for so long, the fans have a clear understanding of Chelsea, this is not a team that can be beaten casually, their will is made of steel, their desire to win is stronger than anyone else, and they have an iron fighting spirit.
The commentators have been trying to tell the fans in front of the television that Chelsea's goal will be a turning point in the game, and it will also cause Chelsea to lose a good chance to advance, and it will seriously affect Chelsea's morale.
But that only makes the Roma fans in front of the TV happy, and those who wish Chelsea lost, because they are not blind and they can see the players on the pitch.
Chelsea have unleashed a wave of counter-attacks.
Lin Yu, as the core offensive player of this team and an iconic figure, how could he be willing to give up his brilliance to Gervinho?
"Beautiful! Lin Yu suddenly accelerated and plugged in, received Hazard's pass, and hit the door with a heavy shot! It's a pity that the ball was saved, but it looked like Roma's goalkeeper Lobon looked very painful, and he shook his hand hard, although it was not enough to fall to the ground, but it seemed that he was beaten in pain! ”
"Terrible heavy artillery! Although this goal did not go in, it was a very morale-boosting shot, Lin Yu had not used such a classic heavy artillery shot for a long time, since he learned the elevator ball, his shooting generally took that way, like this kind of straight heavy artillery bombardment, it is really rare to see. ”
Although the goal was not scored, it was Lin Yu who was making a powerful roar to the audience in front of the TV around the world, telling those who wanted to see his jokes that there was no chance, and to those fans who supported him and supported Chelsea, he wanted to use this shot to tell them that they could watch the game with peace of mind, and that it would be a long time, and Roma would pay the price for them scoring a Chelsea goal.
Although Lobonte blocked Lin Yu's shot, it caused a corner, and Chelsea's corner kick goal rate is also very high, whether it is Ivanovic, Lin Yu or Varane in the penalty area, they all have very good header ability.
So now the Roma players are very nervous, and Rudi Garcia on the sidelines is also nervous, he has seen Chelsea's corner kicks, and he usually goes straight out to eat the opponent raw, just relying on his bounce ability and height to make the opponent panic, and then take the opportunity to score.
Lin Yu, as the core offensive player and the player with the most goals in the team, was tightly guarded, and even a Roman defender directly grabbed Lin Yu's clothes...... (To be continued......)
