Five hundred and one, escaped death?
Back in the dressing room, both managers had no ease on their faces.
Whether it's the performance of their own players or the performance of their opponents, it makes them feel a little difficult.
"It's a heavyweight fight, and it would be nice to get to that level in every fight."
The commentator's words made many fans who had not yet gone away speechless for a while, how could they meet such a second goods.
Of course, this product still makes those foreign fans more agreeable, they have no position, they just want to see a wonderful game.
"I'm looking forward to the second half being even more exciting"
There was a bit of buzz in the dressing room, with the Chelsea players talking about the first half, giving their opinions and, of course, discussing with their team-mates how to play the next game.
Ribery was unaware that he had made a mistake, and he probably knew it, but his personality didn't make him care too much about it, although he was a little annoyed by missing a goal, and he had already forgotten about it at this moment.
There was a knock on the door.
The room immediately fell silent, and they knew that the head had come in, and only the head was qualified to close the door like this.
Lynn had thought of a way to scold, but as soon as she entered the room, she happened to see Ribery bragging about something to his teammates beside him.
Some of the words that had been accumulated with great difficulty were immediately blown away.
It's a wonder!
Lynn still admires a big heart like Ribery.
It was only when he heard that his teammates were silent and that Ribery knew who had come in, and that's when he remembered his ball. Quickly bury your head down.
Ribery is still a little vague about this head. I also figured out my temper because of my own mishandling. The team didn't take the lead, and the leader definitely wouldn't just let himself go, and he didn't run away after being scolded.
Lynn's gaze swept around the locker room, then fixed on Ribery, as if sensing something, Ribery glanced up and lowered his head again in a panic.
At that moment, Ribery was seen shooting with an unfamiliar left foot, instead of passing, and the fire in Lynn's heart at that time was not to be mentioned.
It's much better now. Especially when he saw Ribery's big grin, Lynn was only a little sorry, but she was not so angry.
Clap your hands and focus everyone's attention.
"You should learn a good example from Frank, his big heart is your example"
Boom――――
There was a burst of laughter in the room, and they all understood what was going on, and Ribery was embarrassed to speak out.
"Be serious!!"
Lynn raised his voice, apparently unhappy with the reaction of his players.
"I'm not blaming Frank, you have to remember one thing. In my team, I can allow you to miss a shot or be unlucky, but I want my players to never be knocked down by mistakes on the pitch. And Frank did a good job, though, Frank. You have to admit that you've handled that ball really well. Don't talk about you. ”
Lynn wanted to say disgusting, but she thought it was too much.
"But. You guys, especially John"
The smile on Lynn's face was gone.
"When a teammate makes a mistake or handles the ball unreasonably, John, as the captain, you don't remind him, so how do you fulfill your role as captain?"
Lynn doesn't think there's anything wrong with the players reminding each other on the court, if they are all good gentlemen, then the team is too unhealthy, and if there is any problem, it will be more beneficial than bad for the growth of the team.
Terry's face turned red instantly, and of course he understood what Lynn meant, not only Terry, but most of the other players also lowered their heads.
Lynn didn't intend to grasp this question and continue to talk down, but began to fine-tune the tactics in the second half, as for whether he can understand what he means, that's the player's business, they are all professional players, if they can't adjust themselves quickly, then, they don't have the capital to stand on professional football.
Chelsea should be a team that always wants to win and chase titles, not a team that has lost momentum and eaten their roots.
In the second half, Lynn doesn't plan to make much adjustments, Mourinho is definitely going to continue to defend and counterattack, which is his favorite, and Chelsea's attack also needs such an opponent to sharpen, so come on.
Lynn is busy here with the team's problems, and Mourinho is not idle.
Mourinho has always regarded Chelsea as his biggest opponent, the score in the first half was a draw, and Robben's goal had its chances, which is enough to illustrate the fact that in terms of strength comparison, Tottenham is still a little behind, if he can't put himself in the right position, then Tottenham will suffer a big loss.
'Watch out for their two flanks and watch out for their quick counter-attacks. We also have to strengthen our flanks and use our attacks to suppress their attacks. ”
Saying that, Mourinho looked at Robben and Shepchenko.
Originally, he preferred to let Duff play, however, Mourinho should pay attention to the relationship with Abou, Shepchenko is the darling of the boss, in addition to the problem of personal preference, Shepchenko still has strength, this point, Mourinho is very clear.
Chelsea's attacking position is also powerful, and Mourinho knows that if Tottenham retreats too much, he will definitely be beaten by others, so he needs Tottenham to strengthen their attacking strength, contain the opponent, and maintain a balance
As soon as the second half began, both sides immediately got into the groove.
The speed of switching between offense and defense is fast.
Tottenham also stepped up their attacks on the flanks, and after Robben suffered a loss, he also learned to behave, and Drogba used his body to squeeze through the Chelsea defender, receiving a pass from Robben and slamming it into the goalpost, which really made the Blues fans break out in a cold sweat.
Shepchenko burst into the box and fell to the ground in confusion, the ball was picked up by Almunia and the Spurs fans immediately cheered, believing that the Chelsea player had committed a foul and it should have been a penalty, but the referee did not say anything at all.
The referee signaled for the game to continue. It immediately caused discontent among Tottenham fans, who booed in protest.
Shepchenko did not react. He knew best that there was no foul on the other side. Although the fans made a fierce fuss, it is estimated that they want to put a little pressure on the referee and let him make a decision in favor of his side, but if the referee recognizes it, no matter how much trouble it is, it will not help.
Although Tottenham stepped up their attack, Mourinho did not dare to invest too much and did not put too much pressure on Chelsea's defence.
Chelsea's attacking attack didn't have too many chances either. The game was frozen again.
Arjen Robben was more active than in the first half, and he frequently raised his hand on the sidelines to ask for the ball.
Diarra passed the ball to him, Alves immediately leaned up, one-on-one, Robben was not afraid at all, but the opponent's joint encirclement really made Robben jealous.
He intends to get rid of Alves first and then deal with Van Bommel so that he can pose a threat on the flanks. Complete the tasks assigned by Jose Mourinho.
Unfortunately this time he didn't succeed, Alves forced Robben into a corner, and finally Van Bommel stabbed the ball away.
Robben's behaviour made Mourinho very unhappy, and he singled out the other. The courage was commendable, but it delayed the fighter. The key is to work together, the reason why Chelsea are so strong. Even if the players cooperate with each other and are unguardable, it is about individual ability. Chelsea players can also go head-to-head, but it's rare for a Chelsea player to take on an entire defence alone.
Robben got the ball again, and this time he learned to play a one-two with the retreating Drogba to shake off Alves.
However, Van Bommel quickly leaned in, and the football at Robben's feet became difficult to control under the impact of Van Bommel's body.
That force made it impossible for Robben to make a move calmly, and he resisted Van Bommel hard to squeeze his opponent away, but he failed.
After a stumble, Robben fell to the ground, and he looked angrily at the referee, hoping that the referee would give a foul.
Reasonable collision, this is England, this kind of collision is very common, the referee did not say anything, and the football was cut off.
After successive defeats, Ballack immediately changed direction, and obviously, the opponent strengthened the defense of Robben, and always let Robben go, and the team's attack was useless.
There was a change in the game that followed, Tottenham's attacking direction was richer, and of course, Chelsea's defence didn't seem so easy, but Lynn was secretly happy.
Tottenham's players don't seem to notice that they are putting more and more troops up front and that the space behind them seems to be widening.
Now Chelsea also hit the counter-attack.
Cristiano Ronaldo is much smarter than Robben, and when the ball reaches his feet, he doesn't immediately turn to the sprint, but holds the ball and waits for his teammates to unfold.
"Cristiano Ronaldo has the ball, he has the option to break and pass"
Before the words fell, Ronaldo suddenly started to force a breakthrough, Ashley Cole intended to shovel the football out, but lost the target because of Ronaldo's sudden start, Ronaldo easily passed Cole's defense.
Tottenham suddenly became nervous.
Once Cristiano Ronaldo is allowed into the box, then Tottenham's goal is dangerous.
Makelele rushed over quickly, and Ronaldo also knew that this guy was quite difficult, so he immediately picked up his right leg and passed the football directly to the edge of the penalty area, and Bent had already run out to answer it.
Carvalho immediately followed, a dangerous position that allowed the opposition to possession without pressure and was the rhythm of Tottenham's death.
Carvalho blocked the angle of Bent's direct shot, but of course, Bent didn't intend to shoot, and this place shot was tantamount to handing the ball back to the opponent. After he made a move to get rid of it, he deceived Carvalho's center of gravity and attracted the attention of the Tottenham players, and then suddenly a slash was released!
On the other side, Ribery plugged in at high speed like a lightning sports car.
Tottenham's players barely noticed him, and the likes of Falcao near the box have already made the Tottenham side a little uncomfortable.
Ribery hit the ball directly and vigorously this time!
The ball roared through the crowd in the box and flew straight to the far top corner of the goal!
"Ribery's long-range shot--"
The commentator stretched out, and his voice was accompanied by cheers from the Blues fans.
Robinson took a step behind him, then took off into the air, stretching his arm out for the ball.
But his arm length was still a little short, and the football hit the net hard!
Ribery, who had scored the goal, looked very excited and ran behind the goal. Pulling at his jersey and roaring, the frustration of the first half can finally be vented.
'Franck Franck Ribery's goal gave Chelsea the lead again. Ribery missed a goal in the first half and now he has redeemed himself! ”
See Ribery have such a performance. Lynn is very happy, this time he did not back down because of the last ball, and still dared to shoot decisively, which is very rare, if it is not for the strong self-confidence, maybe he will choose to pass, then it is very detrimental to Ribery's future.
Suffice it to say, Ribery withstood the test.
Jose Mourinho was furious at the goal. He left his seat and stood on the sidelines with a serious face on his face.
He knew that the biggest person responsible for this ball was none other than Ferreira, who he had always trusted, and he lost his vigilance and allowed Ribery to rush like this, and where was he when Ribery shot at goal? It was at least five or six meters from Ribery.
It was his negligence that caused Tottenham's defense to collapse across the board, which was tantamount to opening a hole in the solid defensive line. It ended up conceding a goal.
What worries Mourinho even more is that Chelsea's overall tactics, the suddenness and uncertainty of the passes, make it difficult for the defensive players to adapt.
That's the real hard stuff.
No amount of anger will help. I still need to find a way to score, the FA Cup is not another competition, and the draw will be made away. If you want to go back to home, you have to be able to draw urgently. It's good that it's just a goal, otherwise Mourinho really wouldn't have been confident.
Come to think of it. Mourinho turned his head to look at Lynn, and sure enough, this guy was enjoying the lead with his legs crossed.
The cheers of the Blues fans in the stands finally faded and they looked tired, and the Chelsea fans were a lot more excited today.
With no other option, the Tottenham players, urged by Jose Mourinho, launched a fierce attack on the Chelsea goal, wave after wave, and it seemed that Chelsea's attacks and counter-attacks were gone.
As if prepared, Chelsea were very stable in the rough seas and did not panic.
Jose Mourinho replaced the disappointed Ferreira with Phillips to strengthen the control of the midfield.
On the sidelines, Mourinho kept waving his hand, letting the team press and press, and as for the back, he couldn't care about it.
After Wright-Phillips came on, Shepchenko gave up his position and leaned into the box himself.
'Tottenham are dangerous because if they don't control the situation completely and if they are beaten back by Chelsea, then they don't have the strength to defend behind them'
The commentator couldn't help but worry about Tottenham.
Let the opponent besiege, this is not what Lynn likes to see, he immediately made a substitution, replacing Bent with Anelka, to strengthen the deterrent in the frontcourt!
This move made Mourinho angry, and at this time, Lynn's substitution was equivalent to blocking another giant cannon at the door of Tottenham.
Bente's threat is not on the same level as Anelka, and defending Bent requires a completely different force than Anelka.
"Coach John's thinking is really different from ordinary people, it's really unimaginable, this hand is really amazing"
Lynn's goal is to force Mourinho into a dilemma, and how to balance the defensive and attacking balance has become a difficult choice for Tottenham to make.
Mourinho looked at the bench behind him, gritted his teeth and replaced Duff to let Shepchenko off.
When he left the game, Shepchenko's face was ugly, Mourinho stood there, the two of them staggered each other, and no one looked at anyone.
The rest of the time is gone, the two sides have come and gone, but suddenly it is more lively, but Tottenham still did not break through the Chelsea goal, originally Lynn and Mourinho thought that the game would end in this way, but they did not expect the situation on the field to change abruptly!
In stoppage time, Drogba retreated to receive the football, and there were people on both wings Robben and Duff and other positions who raised their hands to ask for the ball, but he didn't pass anyone, but turned around, bumped into Terry behind him, and chose to break through directly!
The moment he stepped onto the penalty line, Frank Lampard came over and collided with him, and whether he knew whether he did it on purpose or accidentally, Drogba's massive body crashed to the ground.
"Fake fall!" The Blues fans immediately shouted loudly, they were giving the referee a psychological hint and pressure that the opponent was faking the fall.
Tottenham fans, on the other hand, cheered and stood by the fact that they were going to support the penalty anyway.
Everyone looked nervously at the referee, after all, his verdict is the final decision, and only his verdict can decide the fate of both parties
"Oh! Penalty kick! Yes! Tottenham have a chance to come back from the dead! ”
Tottenham fans immediately went into a frenzied uproar, the feeling was indescribable, they had already lost, and now they had regained their turnaround, and they couldn't express their ecstasy just with joy.
Lynn shook his head and sighed, this penalty can be awarded or not, I can't say that there is anything wrong with the referee, but it was awarded, Lynn really doesn't want to play a second game, add burden to himself, and now he is in a critical period of the league and the Champions League, and he has to find time to deal with Tottenham, and his luck is terrible.
Frank Lampard was furious, having been gesturing to the referee to indicate that he had not committed a foul, and that it was Drogba himself who rushed into the net and did not adjust his pace before going down.
He rushed to Drogba, who was surrounded by his teammates, and loudly questioned Drogba.
As a result, Drogba kept his head down and avoided Frank Lampard, and it was clear that the honest Drogba did not want to face Frank Lampard.
Many people who know Drogba's character know that his performance shows that Frank Lampard is right, it is not a foul, and the penalty is wronged.
Like Frank Lampard, the rest of the Chelsea players were furious and surrounded the referee to complain that it was not a penalty.
However, all they received were yellow and red cards, and the penalties remained unchanged.
Lynn grabbed Frank Lampard, who was sent off for a red card, on the sideline and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be impulsive, you have to trust your team-mates. (To be continued......)
