Five hundred and thirty-five, faint and stupefied
'It's not uncommon for Chelsea to defend at home, it's not a big deal, but we're expecting the Blues to deliver exciting counter-attacks from fans around the world in most cases! That touching, violent beauty! So, Tottenham are not having a good time."
The commentators are all too familiar with Chelsea, the situation on the pitch is so familiar now, Tottenham are attacking frantically around Chelsea but are unable to score, and their backline is opening up more and more gaps.
Chelsea have been wreaking havoc in Europe for so many years, and lethal counter-attacks are not uncommon.
Can Tottenham hold it?
'It's difficult, we've had good goals in the history of Chelsea and Tottenham and now I can't wait to see it'
Chelsea's performance in the Champions League is hard to ignore, and the team's results are so good that since reaching the Champions League, the semi-finals have almost become the bottom line, and such results have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The Champions League is a perfect stage where the players make a name for themselves and get everything.
Every wonderful performance will be remembered and talked about with relish.
"Cristiano Ronaldo !!"
Tottenham's pass was intercepted by Chelsea and the ball was passed in front of Cristiano Ronaldo.
As soon as Ronaldo took the ball and turned around, he was dragged down directly from behind by a Tottenham player.
It was Makelle who committed the foul.
He didn't want to do this, but Ronaldo's body shape is too weird, and the perfect combination of action and speed makes Makelele unable to control the opponent at all, and if he is broken through like this, the goal behind him will be dangerous.
The referee, of course, unceremoniously gave Makelele a yellow card.
Mourinho frowned. Fouls aren't scary, and free-kicks up front don't matter. However, the yellow card made Makellele's role much less.
Although the foul was exchanged for the temporary safety of the goal, is the deal a good deal?
Tottenham should have lost money overall.
Watch Ronaldo kneel on the ground and spread his arms. How hateful is the expression to appeal to the refereeββββ if it weren't for the opponent's foul, he could face the goalkeeper directly, this should be a red card!
Of course, the referee will not change the decision.
The problem is that it will give the referee the impression that Ronaldo has been wronged this time.
The referee is also a human being, and it has almost become instinct for him to balance, this time he lost, what about the next time?
Jose Mourinho is worried.
Claude Makelele is the most solid defensive core. After only 20 minutes of the first half, it became a dangerous bomb and Tottenham was not good.
Looking back at the bench and thinking of Essien in the stands, Lao Mu couldn't help but be a little frustrated.
No one can take this position anymore.
His fears soon deepened, and in previous games, Tottenham were able to attack boldly because Claude Makelle was always able to block the Chelsea pass line at crucial moments, or cut it outright. Either sabotage the outskirts to buy time for your teammates.
Extraordinarily active, this is the praise that Lynn and Mourinho shared for Makelele.
Now, Claude Makelle has all but disappeared from the camera, Chelsea in just a few minutes. Hit two effective counter-attacks.
Fortunately, the back line was still calm and blocked the opponent's attack.
If they get in, everything is over for Tottenham.
There is no way. Can only be adjusted.
"Let Michael step back and go to the left." Mourinho turned back to his assistant next to him.
The assistant coach was stunned. But he nodded immediately, and got up to deliver the order.
It's tantamount to letting Makelle switch places with Ballack.
But. The assistant coach was a little drumming in his heart.
Ballack's defensive ability is indeed strong, however, his function on the field should be to organize the attack, not to play
The impact of this yellow card on the game was unconsciously magnified infinitely, and even caused Tottenham to have to make a life-or-death change.
"Hey, Tottenham that's hard to say."
Mortensen quickly understood the changes at Tottenham, but he couldn't say whether it was right or wrong.
That's the power of a handsome.
That is, Mourinho or Lynn, the changes they made, the commentator didn't dare to say that it was wrong as soon as he came up, and if it succeeded, then if the commentator said something before, how embarrassing it would be.
Therefore, even Mortensen only said that he couldn't understand it, and he didn't dare to say that Mourinho was a stupid trick.
"Faint! It's stupid! β
Ferguson was unceremoniously criticised for Mourinho's change.
It is equivalent to abolishing two people at once, and greatly weakening the attack ability in the middle, according to Ferguson, Mourinho is stupid, digging a hole for himself and waiting to jump.
Lynn wanted to laugh out loud, but he still knew how much he was respecting, and he didn't know how many cameras were staring at him, and if he did, he would probably cause some kind of mess.
So, Lynn didn't seem to be moving.
But the situation on the field is clear.
Tottenham's attack stumbled and there were signs of fluidity.
On the contrary, Chelsea's counter-attacks are becoming more and more rampant.
"GOOOOOO AlasβFalco! It's just a little bit closer, hit the side netting"
Ballack relied on his physical advantage to resist Cristiano Ronaldo, but Ronaldo is not the only one at Chelsea.
Alonso still chose Ronaldo's pass for the first time, but paid attention to receiving and protecting.
As long as Ballack kept his eyes on it, he immediately took full advantage of the width of the pitch after receiving Cristiano Ronaldo's return pass and launched a surprise attack from the left.
Mourinho grimaced.
It wasn't what he wanted.
Over time, it is almost impossible to guess what kind of bad impact it will have on Tottenham, and many games can confirm it.
Tottenham are in trouble.
Chelsea's several passes were very fluid, Falcao completed the shot, and Mourinho smelled the danger immediately.
Finally, taking advantage of the opportunity of four goals, Mourinho pulled Ballack as the core of the playmaking on the field. Mourinho told him what he thought was the most appropriate.
"Go back to the middle, but. You have to increase your running and help him. β
Concise. Barak raised his eyebrows, nodded and ran over.
Lynn saw it, and soon he spotted the changes at Tottenham.
Speechless.
This Mourinho is crazy or stupid, so changing, even if the players are not confused, but the blow to confidence is very big.
Especially Makelele.
He was just tied up by a yellow card and didn't dare to show himself too much.
It will be restored soon after the adjustment.
As long as Tottenham hold out a little longer and Makelele becomes a defensive barrier again, then Mourinho's return will not be a problem.
Instead, Lynn will see Mourinho's move as detail-oriented. That's the way to win.
However, now Lynn thinks that Mourinho is panicked, a little out of control, and he can't control his heart.
Really!
Less than a minute later, Carvalho had the upper hand in a header and sent the ball out of the box, but it didn't go far but just outside the box.
Frank Lampard is a powerful volley against the football!
The ball roared over the crossbar and smashed into the stands behind the goal.
Although the goal drew a sneer from Tottenham fans.
But it made Lynn's heart full of joy.
Makelele, who was close at hand, hesitated. He didn't go up to block Lampard at the first time, but only hesitated to put out his foot to symbolically block when Lampard was almost done shooting.
That's a sign of undefense.
In this way, Tottenham's good start was reversed.
The more Chelsea played, the more comfortable they became.
Once again, the focus of contention between the two sides returned to midfield.
Tottenham's attacking tide has passed.
As the Blues fans cheered louder and louder in the stands. Chelsea's attacking momentum is also starting to pick up.
In the 35th minute, Van Bommel spotted Frank Lampard in the slit.
He immediately passed the ball over.
Makelele didn't hesitate this time and immediately lunged towards Lampard.
That doesn't mean he's regained his defensive confidence. It's more proof that he is not in shape at the moment.
Such a pass must be stuck in the line first, not desperately pounced.
Frank Lampard saw that Makelele was so quick. Instead of stopping the ball, he spread his legs apart and let the ball slip under his crotch.
"Nice leak! Makelele made a mistake! β
Behind Makelele. Ronaldo has started, quickly broke forward, and scored quickly with the ball is Ronaldo's specialty, he often swoops the ball to the opponent's goal, and throws away the chasing soldiers to shoot directly.
This time was no exception.
Because of such a leak, even Ashley Cole was shaken down.
"Damn it!"
Mourinho smashed his fist on the baffle and couldn't help but curse in his mouth.
Cristiano Ronaldo continued to dribble the ball, and behind him, Cole and Makelele were in hot pursuit.
'Chelsea's counterattack! It's so beautiful, it looks like they're going to give the fans something affordable. β
The commentators also shouted excitedly.
However, the footsteps behind him made Ronaldo always vigilant, not afraid of anything else, he was worried that the opponent would foul directly, so even if he gave the opponent another yellow card, it would be worth the loss.
In the afterglow, he spotted Didier Drogba secretly distancing himself from the Tottenham defenders.
This is exactly the time!
Non-stop ball, directly use the flexibility of the ankle, the football draws a beautiful arc!
"Ugh! Pass?! ββββββ beautiful! Drogba! β
"Good shot! It's a leak again! β
Drogba took a big step, but he didn't touch the ball with his feet.
Even if the Tottenham players around him gave him space, it was still too small.
It's different behind you.
Falcao had been quietly approaching.
Plugged in at high speed, Tottenham's hearts were like knives, why did this guy come again.
What did Ivanovich do?
What did you do? Nothing was done.
He hung behind Falco, and his hands kept making small movements.
The two-footed pass made Tottenham's defence a sieve, and there were gaps in the eye.
The footsteps behind him and the amount of force generated from time to time above the ball made Falcao not have the heart to shoot.
He suddenly accelerated and pulled to the side, and Ivanovich quickly let go of his hand, if the opponent fell to the ground, it would be troublesome, this is a forbidden area.
"Pass! Pretty! Drogba! Shoot ββββββ goal ββββ score! 1:0! Chelsea scored again, 3-1 on aggregate! (To be continued......)
