Chapter 568: Still Familiar Taste, Still Original Recipe (II)

Instead of celebrating, Lee quickly picked up the ball from behind Thibaut Courtois and then returned to the centre circle to await Chelsea's kick-off.

Those who know Li Zihan know that this is his character, as long as the game is not over, he will always be full of fighting spirit, no matter what the score on the field is.

"This scene reminds me of last season, when Arsenal fell behind, Li Zihan was called to play. Then it was a very beautiful goal that announced his save, and then the football was checked out of the net, and a big counterattack began!! Mortenson said.

Mourinho was very dissatisfied on the sidelines, and he kept signaling to the players on the field to defend against the opponent's No. 12 core Li Zihan.

Before the game, they had a lot of targeted training on defending Li Zihan, and at this time Mourinho thought that these could be taken out!

Instead of rushing out with a strong attack to give Arsenal color after the restart, Chelsea started to keep the football at their feet.

Now this Arsenal is not the Arsenal of the past, and Mourinho may have made the team press out to take revenge two years ago or last season. But now this Arsenal team is not good, first of all, their midfield is much tougher than before, and the slightest mistake will be counterattacked by the opponent.

Although Chelsea are good counter-attacking players and Arsenal advocate attacking football, that doesn't mean Arsenal won't play counter-attacking defence.

And once the other party masters the rhythm, it will be out of control, and it is easy for him to fall into it. So Mourinho is also preventing Arsenal from getting excited because of Li Zihan's goal, so as to have a big battle!

There are a lot of incredible things in this world, like this game. Now it is Chelsea who advocate possession, while Arsenal are the full-pitched attack

In the eyes of the fans, this is incredible, and it is completely reversed.

Looking at the shape on the field, Wenger had a rush to change Oxlade-Chamberlain. Chamberlain was fast, physically strong and impactful, and had a great sense of the big picture.

The key is that this young player can attack and defend, and if he can't keep it, he will cut off a key ball in the front court. But if Chamberlain is replaced, who will be replaced? Sanchez? Unrealistic, Harry Kane? The England centre-forward can cause some problems for Chelsea's two central defenders on the pitch and is not easy to change. Ozil? Pogba? It doesn't seem realistic.

As for Li Zihan, Wenger didn't even think about it, unless his brain was caught in the door.

Just when Wenger kept thinking of a way to deal with it, the game between the two sides once again entered a battle of attack and defense.

Chelsea wanted to control the football, but Arsenal refused to let their opponents get their way, with Li Zihan, Alexis Sanchez and Paul Pogba constantly pressing up front, and even Harry Kane and Mesut Ozil, two attacking players with poor tackling ability, were involved.

I didn't expect Arsenal's full-court pressing to play so well, and Chelsea, who was forced to helpless, had to organize an attack directly after taking the ball.

Although Arsenal's midfield is now missing Ramsey, the midfield combination of Pogba and Lars Bender is also very strong and can attack and defend.

Chelsea's attack has not improved for a while, and now Chelsea's attack is almost entirely dependent on Eden Hazard's individual ability to lead the attack and Diego Costa's ability to cut forward to take chances.

As for Cesc Fabregas, Wenger knows the Spanish midfielder very well, so he let Pogba stick up and interfere with Cesc Fabregas at close range.

Cesc Fabregas has a relatively low level of physical confrontation, and Arsene Wenger has caught that.

And the weakness of the Brazilian genius attacking midfielder Oscar is also somewhat similar to Cesc Fabregas, so Wenger has arranged for the physical Sanchez. When the opposition attacked, Sanchez had to return to central midfield to help defence. The professor also doesn't want Chile to attack the midfielder how defensively they are, as long as they stick it and don't let Oscar easily take the ball, the threat of the opponent will drop by at least 60 percent!

And having a Lee Zihan and Harry Kane up front is enough.

Monreal is a full-back with decent defensive ability, and the Spaniard, although not fast enough, is still conscientious in carrying out defensive duties.

And Monreal, who was playing honestly, also had a lot of experience, several beautiful steals of Hazard's dribble but no foul, and made several small moves out of the referee's sight, which also made Hazard a little distressed.

In the end, Hazard had to switch places with Willian, and the two positions were reversed. Let Willian deal with Monreal, as a player born in Brazil and also playing in leagues such as Ukraine and Russia for a long time, Willian is not easy to mess with, and there are many small actions.

So what Hazard means is that the wicked have their own evildoers

The offensive and defensive transitions between the two sides are very fast, and often the fans have just seen an attack clearly, and it is immediately the turn of the other side to counterattack, such a fast pace makes the director have no time to play some replays of wonderful shots.

In the 62nd minute, Cesc Fabregas picked up the ball and tried to send a through ball to Diego Costa, but Pogba quickly pressed it up.

Pogba and Cesc Fabregas are not familiar with each other, and as soon as they meet, they go straight to the point without greetings. Pogba used his naturally tough black body against Fabregas, and then there were some small pushing movements in his hands, and Marriner was blocked by Pogba's tall body and did not see clearly.

Pogba's push made Cesc Fabregas a little off balance, and despite the Spanish midfield's efforts to keep his balance and protect the ball, Pogba still snatched the ball from the opponent's feet.

Cesc Fabregas was pushed away by Pogba and held his hands flat on the referee, apparently believing that the opponent had committed a foul, which should have been Chelsea's possession.

However, referee Marriner signaled for the game to continue, and Arsenal did not foul, which was a very normal body contact action.

Pogba blocked Cesc Fabregas with his hand and then played a pass to the snatched ball.

Pogba's pass did not go to Li Zihan on the flank, as Azpilicueta had expected, much to the relief of the Spanish full-back.

This cheating Li Zihan, who didn't wait for the right side, ran to my left side to dry his hair - Chelsea's left wing-back Azpilicueta was indignant.

Pogba's pass was a high ball towards midfield centre-forward Harry Kane.

Nemanja Matic had been "humiliated" by Li Zihan before, and this time he faced Harry Kane and the Serbian midfielder wanted to be humiliated.

It's just that Harry Kane is naturally not weak as a center forward in heading, jumping and physically, and the two have already pushed and pulled each other when the football is still in the air.

This time, Nemanja Matic got the ball right and jumped right when the height was right. Harry Kane jumped one step ahead of his opponent and tried to grab the ball first.

Matic disagreed, the header is not a queue to buy an iPhone, toilet seat, rice cooker or something, what is first-come, first-served.

The jump was early, the falling height of the football was not grasped appropriately, and finally the body was falling when the football was not at the best height, and finally I could only regret watching the football fly over my head.

In technical terms, it's just -- Rise to the top!

Nemanja Matic saw the football and then pushed Harry Kane with his back to his chest in front of him when he was in the air, but the England centre-forward held on.

Eventually, the ball landed on the back of Harry Kane's head and bounced off his back.

'Nemanja Matic and Harry Kane didn't get the ball and the ball bounced back to the Chelsea back'

Li Zihan suddenly cut inside from the side at this time and came to the landing point of the football with lightning speed. Azpilicueta, who defended Li Zihan on the side, was caught off guard by the opponent and wanted to follow up, but because of the haste, the sole of his foot slipped and although he did not fall, he was also taken advantage of by Li Zihan to pull away.

"Li !!"

As soon as he received the football, Li Zihan flicked towards the wing, not in the middle, but behind Cesar Azpilicueta and towards the Chelsea back.

There is no one to defend this area, and for Li Zihan, it is a flat river!

Li Zihan was very fast and was about to approach the penalty area, while Azpilicueta behind him was still struggling to chase back.

Cahill knew something was wrong and immediately came over to cover the defence.

Li Zihan and Cahill were soon on the same level, and Cahill used his tall body to jam Li Zihan and prevent the other party from cutting in.

Everyone knows that Li Zihan's biggest threat is his shot, but the shot that is within the range of the goal is the threat, and the shot that is forced into the corner on the side seems to be called a clearance.

In addition to jamming the opponent with his body, Cahill also made some small movements in his hands, but Cahill did not dare to put his feet, because once the foot could not jam the football, but let the opponent wade through, then it would be really dangerous.

He still didn't dare to underestimate Li Zihan, and it was the safest to get stuck with the other party and force the bottom line directly.

But Li Zihan obviously didn't mean to go to the "end of the world" with him to the bottom line, just when he was still two yards away from the bottom line, Li Zihan suddenly used his left foot to cross between Cahill and himself, using his left foot as a protection and support point, his body turned obliquely on the spot, and finally his right foot was pumped the football.

The football riveted towards Chelsea's central penalty area, Cahill's eyes widened, not knowing whether he was afraid that the powerful football in the air would hit his handsome face, or Li Zihan's movements surprised him.

"Li !!!!"

"Cross from the wing! The ball was actually passed by him!! Zhan Jun's voice was an octave higher.

Chelsea captain John Terry saw Lee Zihan's cross from the wing, and as he watched the ball land, he saw a shadow in front of him and immediately raised his attention!
