CHAPTER XXXIV

Sunderland's morale really suffered a big blow after Sunderland's tenacious equaliser, but fortunately they did not let the home team score again in the last 30 minutes, and finally kept the score of 2-2 until the end of the game. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Manchester City were able to draw a draw, but they were relieved that Chelsea were unable to turn things around on the road, and although their key player Eden Hazard pulled a goal back in stoppage time, it was no longer possible; As a result, in the 36th round of the Premier League, the top team Chelsea only had a two-point lead over Manchester City behind them, while the third-place Manchester United team also relied on a draw from Manchester City to chase them to tie the score, but temporarily ranked behind the city's rivals because of goal difference.

Sunderland will continue to play against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after successfully stopping the "Blue Moon" Manchester City.

In the first leg of the meeting at the Stadium of Light, Sunderland relied on Dokar's kick to "level the ground and thunder", and the Chelsea team, which played one less player at the time, did not know what kind of exciting game the two sides would bring to the fans after moving to Stamford Bridge this time.

Compared with the last game against Manchester City, this game with Chelsea sent a younger lineup, first of all, the goalkeeper Pickford appeared in the starting lineup, which is also his first appearance in the Premier League this season, and the changes in the back line are not small, except for the Dutchman Van Aanholt is still in the starting lineup, the center-back combination of this game has changed to Clifford, who has never played in the top league, and Billy Jones, who originally played at right-back, and the right-back in this game is played by the teenager GoochJuanfran was not even in the squad for the main player in this position, and the explanation given by Nanxiao was that the Spaniard had suffered some minor injuries in training; In the midfield position, Sunderland still sent their main players Jedinak and Dokar in this game, Halilovic in the front, Danny Murphy returned to the left winger position, Larsson appeared on the right side, and the center forward is still the team's top scorer Carlos.

Chelsea, who played at home, lined up their strongest formation, with the front three of Eden Hazard, Costa and Pedro coming together, the two wings were still youngsters Alonso and Moses, the midfield combination of N'Golo Kante partnered Cesc Fabregas, the three central defenders were Cahill, David Luiz and Cesar Azpilicueta, and the goalkeeper was also Belgian international Thibaut Courtois.

Chelsea took the lead in the third minute when Costa turned and fired after receiving a pass from Cesc Fabregas to pose a threat to Pickford.

On 11 minutes, Eden Hazard split the ball to Moses on the right after easily breaking through the bag between Gucci and Billy Jones, but unfortunately Moses didn't control his footwork and the ball flew straight into the second layer of the stands.

In the 15th minute, Chelsea launched a continuous wave of attacks on Sunderland, Costa and Pedro's successive shots were also saved by Pickford, and Chelsea were always a little bit away from scoring!

On 21 minutes, Sunderland had a rare counter-attacking opportunity, Billy Jones' clearance turned into an assist, Carlos advanced quickly after winning the ball, and played a beautiful breakthrough in the face of David Luiz's up-and-coming! However, Carlos was unable to break through the Azpilicueta defence after passing Luiz, squandering a great counter-attacking opportunity, and Danny Murphy, who ran out of position on the left flank, was also very frustrated that his team-mate did not split the ball in time this time, but fortunately after a brief communication, the two men shook hands again, and the hearts of the visiting fans were put back in their stomachs.

In the 27th minute of the game, Chelsea finally scored, this time the initiator of the goal was the former Golden Boy Award winner Cesc Fabregas, who found Moses who quickly inserted on the wing with a long diagonal pass in the midfield, Moses advanced all the way to the bottom line and sent an inverted triangle back pass, and Costa, who was outflanked in the middle, took advantage of the situation to meet the ball and knocked on the door of the visiting team Sunderland!

"It was a really beautiful goal." Shen Chao and Chen Mingshuo still didn't go to the stadium in this game, and continued to choose to stay at home to watch the broadcast, so after the Chelsea team scored, Shen Chao just calmly sent a grape into his mouth elegantly, and then commented.

On 32 minutes, Chelsea led by one goal and scored another goal, Hazard's very consistent shot after a series of escapes in the process of cutting inside the wing once again penetrated Pickford's ten fingers, and it can be seen from the slow-motion replay that Pickford's vision was blocked by his teammate Clifford at the moment of Hazard's shot, so there was nothing he could do about this goal.

"It's a good goal, it's a little bit better than the one just now." This time, the fruit that Shen Chao ate turned into an orange.

Stamford Bridge has turned into a sea of blue since Eden Hazard's goal, because Chelsea have never been overtaken or even equalised when they are 2-0 up since the start of the season, so the home fans at this point in the game almost as if they had seen a victory!

"Nan Xiao's deployment of troops this time, I don't know if it will become a handle for media rendering after the game." Chen Mingshuo's focus is obviously not on the same channel as Shen Chao.

"What do they have to render? We've locked in the top seven, and what's wrong with training and training doesn't get in their way. ”

"That's what you think, but it's hard to say anything once it passes through the mouth of the media."

If the 2-0 score in the first half was not so reliable, then Pedro's goal in the 41st minute can be regarded as completely losing the suspense of this game.

The Sabres played two one-two in quick succession with Costa and then crossed Clifford through the crotch before Van Aanholt made a stoppage and flew into the net with a curling shot grazed the inside of the left post.

Chelsea led Sunderland 3-0 before half-time, and even if Nan Xiao has the ability to pass the sky, it is estimated that it will be difficult to take even a point from the stadium of Stamford Bridge!

"Dizi, this is really going to kill Manchester United! Mingshuo, my brain is not as good as you, you hurry up and calculate, if Chelsea wins three points in this game, then Manchester United still has any hope of winning the championship? Shen Chao turned his head to Chen Mingshuo and asked.
