Before the game, Mourinho told the team that in this game, they could not rely on Elo's individual performance to solve the game as before, and must rely on team football to win this game, otherwise the home league against Arsenal four days later will definitely be very difficult!

However, Mourinho did not expect that once a habit is formed, it is difficult to change it again.

Therefore, this is the most fundamental reason why Chelsea did not score in the first half hour of the game.

If it were as usual, the Tottenham Hotspur backline, which was full of awe of Elo, would have been broken through by him a long time ago.

In order to get the team to adjust to the way he played in his absence, Iroh had to play like Kalou and Malouda, constantly breaking down to the bottom line and making crosses.

It is also time to get used to a player who is used to taking the ball and cutting inside the goal to suddenly change his style of play and make a bottom cross, and at the same time, the player who flanks in the middle must also slowly adapt.

So the score at the end of the first half was 0:0

In the second half, Ailo switched from the left to the right this time, and continued to consciously increase the number of crosses.

Although the Tottenham players don't know what medicine is sold in Elo's gourd, the first choice of the backline is to beware of Elo's inward cutting route, because the inward cutting of Iroh is the most dangerous Aelo.

As for the Ailuo in the bottom cross, then it is equivalent to cutting off an arm, and his power is greatly reduced, and his power naturally decreases geometrically.

As the clock ticked on, Iello also regained his sense of crosses from the wings, and in the 68th minute of the game, he suddenly changed the route of the pass when he went down the right flank, from the habitual half-high ball to the empty area in front of the penalty area to send an inverted triangle pass close to the ground, and then inserted a very conscious Lampard to meet the ball and shoot angrily, the football hung into the corner of the goal, and Chelsea led Tottenham 1-0 away.

Five minutes later, Wright Phillips replaced Joe Cole on the right wing, and Iello returned to his familiar left.

Wright Phillips threatened just a minute later, using his blistering speed to break through to the line and force a cross that went past the front post and down the middle, where Iro, who followed up at high speed on the left, leaped high to smash Wright-Phillips' ball into the back of the net to give Chelsea a 2-0 lead.

The goal also foreshadowed that Chelsea had essentially won the game.

After Iello scored the goal, Sky TV commentator Andy Gray and CCAV-5 Premier League commentator Zhan Jun said almost in unison: "The goal is in!" Iello (Ai) scored his 34th Premier League goal of the season, so he also equalled Cole and Shearer's single-season Premier League goals! ”

After scoring the goal, Iello rarely rushed to the coach's bench and hugged Mourinho warmly, and said: "Thank you! ”

The rest of the game didn't go as the studio commentators claimed, with Iello failing to take the chance to score another goal in the remaining minutes to break the Premier League single-season record for Kerr and Shearer.

In the ensuing game, he seemed to be back to the ordinary Iroh from before.

In the end, Chelsea won 2-0 away at Tottenham.

After the game, the media were quite surprised by Elo's appearance in this game, and also made a lot of speculation, such as Elo and Mourinho had a conflict, but this speculation was quickly dispelled, because Ailo had a hug with Mourinho after scoring the header.

So...... Not in good shape?

But the problem is that you can still score goals if you are not in good form? Can you also pass the deadly ball with precision?

It's obvious that it can't be explained! Because Iello has equalled Cole and Shearer's single-season Premier League scoring record!!

Could it be ...... Is it a new tactic to practice against Arsenal four days later?

Thinking about this, many journalists were pleasantly surprised by their brilliant thinking, as they thought of many possibilities, and that alone could explain Elogh's unproductive performance against Tottenham Hotspur away.

The next day, in addition to reporting that Ailo equaled the goal records of Cole and Shearer, it was aimed at Ailo's 'sluggish state' when he played at Tottenham, and the British media studied the game in depth, and finally agreed that Ailo was because Mourinho wanted to face Arsenal at home to change tactics in advance.

Because the first actual combat drill tactics, there will always be an impact, right? So......

Even Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is convinced.

However, at this time, Iroh had already taken a direct flight from London to Hong Kong.

At this time, no one other than the Chelsea players knew that Iello had taken a flight home from London.

……

When Iroh arrived at the Hong Kong International Airport, it was already the early morning of the 22nd, and because it was too early, he did not contact his friends Ah Heng and Lin San in Hong Kong.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, I took a flight from Hong Kong to Kunming, and when I arrived at the Haigeng Training Base at No. 57 Hubin Road, Dianchi National Tourism Resort, it was already 12 o'clock at noon.

This time, except for Hao Junmin and Gao Lin, who were injured, did not return to China to prepare for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, other foreign players have already come to the Haigeng training base to meet.

When Ailo 23 began training with the team at the Kunming Haigeng National Training Base, reporters in London found out...... The news that Elo, the strongest attacking point in the Chelsea team, had returned home for the World Cup qualifiers came so suddenly that Arsene Wenger's previously carefully designed defensive tactics against Arsrow were all useless.

You know, the next afternoon will be a league match against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Arsenal are now fourth in the Premier League table, 15 points away from Chelsea at the top, and if they can't win Chelsea, then this season's league title is basically gone, and they can only maintain their Champions League places.

This is a very difficult achievement for Arsenal, who were once the traditional giants of the Premier League, who were champions four years ago...... Unbeaten all season!

It's exciting to think about it.

But...... These are past results and if you want to make changes, you have to act, Wenger reacted very quickly and chose to attack on the second day!

Chelsea's home match against Arsenal was played at 4pm on the 26th, which is 11pm Beijing time.

Originally, this time period was already in the stage of falling asleep for the international players who were training intensively, but as the saying goes, there are policies and countermeasures, and the coaches of the national team will not squat at the door of the players one by one to listen to the voices of the players in the room.

Besides, there aren't so many people and not so much energy.

The TV provided by the dormitory at the base of Eloton Guò watched the live broadcast, but he shook his head repeatedly.

Although Chelsea did its best, it couldn't help Arsenal's rapid transmission of counterattacks, especially Walcott's point, and Van Persie's cooperation was quite tacit, and then there was a surprise that Chelsea, who was playing at home, conceded the first goal......

In the words of the narrator Zhan Jun: "Hey...... If Chelsea is compared to a well-equipped weapon, then Iroh is the one who wields it, and only he can bring out the full strength of Chelsea! ”

Had it not been for Drogba's last-minute savior, Chelsea would have suffered defeat at home, perhaps the first home defeat of Jose Mourinho's managerial career!

Chelsea drew 1-1 at home to Arsenal and were caught up in the chase by Manchester United to see a chance to overtake the points before the end of the league!

Manchester United, who then kicked off, won 3:0 at home against Liverpool with goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney!

No one expected this result!

The result of the Double Red Society turned out to be one-sided......

After Manchester United's victory, the gap with Chelsea has been reduced to five points, and if this gap continues into the 36th round, it will be the most direct meeting between the two teams!

And the most important thing is that there are two legs of the Champions League semi-finals between the front and back of this league, and as long as the game is stable, it will definitely be Chelsea who is in a hurry!

According to Ferguson's thoughts, Mourinho was indeed a little anxious at this time, but ...... It is not the league championship that is anxious, but hopes that Iello will finish the national team game as soon as possible, come back to the club to report, and prepare for the next consecutive vicious battles.

The 32nd round of the league with Middlesbrough on March 30, the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals on April 2, Manchester City on April 5, the FA Cup semi-finals at home against Cardiff on the 7th two days later, and the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals on the 10th three days later.

With such a dense schedule, it is really difficult to win these opponents without Iroh in charge, especially in the knockout stage.

Although Chelsea have an absolute advantage in terms of the strength of both sides, football games often cannot be analyzed according to strength, especially in the final stage of league and cup competitions.

In the first round of the first group of the top 20 in the Asian region of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the Chinese team defeated Iraq 5-0 away, which shocked the whole Asia, and they shouted "The sleeping lion has woken up!" And many foreign media gave the Chinese national team the first place in Asia to enter the World Cup in South Africa in advance.

Therefore, Qatar, which challenged the Chinese national team away before the game, was not favored by anyone at all, and even the Qatari coach Ali before the game said that their goal of challenging the Chinese national team this time was to come for a draw.

The Chinese reporter who listened to this was very happy, you must know that two years ago, the head coach of the Chinese national team went to the guest venue to speak, and now in 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, it is the turn of the head coach of other national teams, and the mood is naturally different.

In fact, the process and outcome of the game also made the Chinese sports media proud.

Although Hao Junmin and Gao Lin both missed the second round of the national team's World Cup qualifiers due to injury, the captain Ailo was enough to make Qatar feel extremely uncomfortable.

After scoring two goals in the last game, Ailo scored two goals again in the home game against Qatar, helping the Chinese national team win Qatar 4:0 at home, thus winning two consecutive World Cup qualifiers and topping the table with goal difference!
