A 3-0 scoreline is unacceptable for Chelsea and it would force anyone to go beyond the beaten path, even a conservative man like Ranieri. 2:0, if he can accept it very reluctantly, then 3:0 is absolutely unacceptable. Returning to Stamford Bridge with such a scoreline would leave Chelsea with only a theoretical chance of qualifying.

He made personnel adjustments again, and it was two people in one exchange, and all the substitutions were used up at once. Crespo replaced Galla to strengthen the attack, while Veron replaced Joe Cole, who was sluggish in the game, and Chelsea's formation changed to a 3-4-3 attacking formation. The substitution also reflected Chelsea's dominance on the bench, with Veron and Crespoco both well-known Argentine stars, star goalscorers and star midfielders. With the addition of these two men, Chelsea's attacking impact was immediate.

In the 82nd minute of the second half, in the face of Chelsea's desperate attack, Porto's defence was under unprecedented pressure, somewhat wolf-like. This left Porto all the way back, leaving only McCarthy alone up front. At this point, Veron received a pass from Frank Lampard up front, and it was Maniche who had to defend him from with. Although Veron did not play at his price in the Premier League, Ferguson's £28 million move to Manchester United proved to be a complete failure. But that doesn't detract from the quality he has, as he proved in the Blueeagle Lazio's prime years. Just like the Uruguayan striker Forlan, who was also introduced by Ferguson, it is not a matter of strength that he can't play. It's that they are not adapted to the environment of the Premier League and cannot adapt to the environment of the Premier League. In the Premier League, which will be fast-paced and high-intensity. The unfast speed of Veron's movement speed and absolute speed has become the biggest shackle that restricts him.

But that doesn't mean. He was completely unplayed. Against Maniche's defence, Veron showed his top-notch technical level. After striking back with Gudjohnsen to hit the wall, he sent a precise through ball straight behind Costa with the little space he had. In the box, his compatriot Crespo, with his erratic running ability, got the ball ahead of the Porto players. Although this season's back-and-forth loan and injuries have caused Crespo's form to drop significantly. It's very unstable, but occasionally it flashes and shows his demeanor as a top striker.

At this time, he did not choose to receive the ball with his right foot, but after letting go of the ball with his right foot, he stopped the ball with his left foot. This was a blow that caused Carvalho to be taken abys, and then Crespo flicked the outside of his right foot horizontally, completely shaking off the angle and space of the shot. As a point-grabbing striker, Crespo's shooting skills need no more explanation. A push shot from the right heel. The angle and power are good, and it goes straight to the dead corner of the far corner. Baia tried his best, but he only touched the ball and slowed it down. But it did not change its route.

Just when the Chelsea fans were already celebrating their goals, an old Chinese adage was once again fulfilled: happiness begets sorrow. Number 13 in Porto. Rushing to the goal, then a big foot. Kick the ball that is about to enter the goal and fly high. Out of the bottom line, a dangerous situation was resolved. And Lao Lei's whole person also hit the goal post without slowing down, fortunately with the blessing of the devil's muscles, otherwise this time it would definitely be not light.

There was a loud "bang" that scared the Porto players and Mourinho. Hurriedly ran over and took a closer look at Lao Lei's situation. Seeing that except for a fiery red mark on his head, Lao Lei was fine, and everyone was relieved. At the same time, I sighed in my heart, this is really a beast, it's okay like this, what kind of material is this made of. Porto fans were also relieved to see that Lao Lei was fine. In the crucial period at the end of the season, Porto cannot afford to be without Lao Lei no matter what. At the same time, admiration and appreciation rose in my heart, and the Dragon Stadium rang out loud applause at the same time. Even Chelsea fans are the same, although they don't say it, but they admire it in their hearts. The football culture in England makes them particularly appreciate the spirit of Lao Lei's game that dares to die.

At this time, Lao Lei exhaled happily in his heart, and said that he was fortunate to have divine power to protect his body. Otherwise, this time, seeing blood is certain. Of course, he is meticulous in accepting the adoration and appreciation of fans and teammates. Even he didn't know if he didn't have the skill of the Devil's Flesh Man, he would not have rushed forward so carelessly.

After the restart, it was a Chelsea corner kick first. The game table Xiàn good Baia, once again jumped high and won the football. If it weren't for Baia's excellent performance, it is estimated that Chelsea's score would not have been a zero. At this time, Chelsea, who were crazy to press, provided Porto with space and opportunities to counterattack. However, actively stepping forward to encircle and grab, Porto can only counterattack with frequent long passes. However, with the experienced Desailly and the up-and-coming Terry in the hands of the duo, McCarthy alone was unable to achieve good results when he counterattacked. So on the pitch, in the final stages of the game, Chelsea completely held Porto down.

I don't know if Ranieri will regret his conservatism when he sees the shape on the field now. After all, judging from the overall strength and lineup, Porto is not as good as Chelsea, after all, the pounds spent by Abou are genuine. In any case, it cannot be denied that Ranieri's conservative tactics were a major factor in Chelsea's success in this game.

In the 86th minute of the second half, Chelsea came back on a comeback. This time, Chelsea's two Argentines and Frank Lampard's three men played a delicate combination at the edge of Porto's penalty area. Regardless, the presence of two Argentines did add to the technical factor of Chelsea's attacking line. After getting a back-heel knock from Crespo, Veron had an open shot from the edge of the box. A powerful right-footed outside volley, the ball is straight to the right corner of the goal, it is a half-high ball. It was an absolute world wave and Baia was not able to turn the tide again, as the ball bounced into the net on the inside of the post.

Porto's defense has done their best, but sometimes some shots are unstoppable. Ironically, however, it was Veron's first goal for Chelsea this season. And this is only his sixth game for Chelsea this season, and it is unclear what Ranieri's answer will be when he is standing on the sidelines celebrating his goal.

Either way, of course, Chelsea pulled a goal back thanks to a world wave from Veron. The score of 3:1 is still very bad for Chelsea, but in terms of results, it is still acceptable. Returning to win Porto by two goals at home will not be an impossible task for Chelsea's quality. However, the Chelsea players did not celebrate the goal in a big way, after all, three goals behind, a goal back before the end of the game is not something to celebrate. And Abu, who was sitting in the VIP seat, obviously thought the same way, and he pulled down the iron blue face, obviously telling everyone that he was very unhappy. After thinking for a while, although he restrained his expression, he turned his head to Da Costa, who was accompanying him, and asked with a smile, "How much is your Rayma worth?" ”

On the field, although the Porto players were unhappy, they could only accept this result, and they could only admit it when they encountered this kind of world wave. At this time, Ranieri still showed the courage of a good manager, instructing the team to continue to strengthen the attack and see if they could pull another goal back before the end of the game.

However, Porto, who came to their senses, did not give Chelsea another chance, and the defence was very well organised. In the first minute of stoppage time, Ranieri immediately halted Chelsea's attack after McCarthy hit a long shot from the back of the line after a long kick from Ray broke off the ball at the back and fired a long-range shot that flew just over the crossbar. If you concede another goal at this point, then Chelsea will have a lot of fun. Chelsea's body has been almost exhausted after a period of onslaught, and it is already the end of the strong crossbow. If you continue to attack at this time, it is likely that Porto will seize the opportunity to counterattack.

After Chelsea returned, the remaining two minutes of stoppage time were not enough for Porto and Lao Lei to continue to do something. Porto also stopped attacking, and the originally fierce rhythm of the game suddenly slowed down at this time, as if someone had pressed it in slow motion. The final score of 3:1 was maintained until the end, and in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final between the two teams, Porto took the lead at home. On the form shì that appears, it has the upper hand.

For this result, the English journalists who came to the scene were not happy. After all, they were hoping that Chelsea and Manchester United would both reach the final, so that the Premier League side could meet in the Champions League final. In their opinion, it will be a glorious moment for the Premier League to officially replace Serie A in the mini-World Cup and become the world's number one league. But now it seems that Chelsea are almost dead.

With such an unhappy mentality, the English reporter was the first time that Lao Lei saw the difficulty of the English reporter.

"Hello Remayr, I'm a journalist for The Sun in England. Excuse me, what do you think of the fact that you stepped over Melchiot during the game, who fell to the ground injured? Don't you think it's a very rude and unprofessional thing to do? ”

Looking at the arrogant "Sun" reporter in front of him, Lao Lei felt that he had almost pasted a piece of paper on his head and wrote, "I'm just here to find fault."

Someone is looking for trouble, and Lao Lei has never been a person who is afraid of things.

He leaned forward and held his chin up with his right hand on the news desk.

I picked up my phone with my left hand and played.

directly ignored the "Sun" reporter's question, which made him stunned in embarrassment.

The scene suddenly fell silent for a while.

The meaning that Lao Lei wants to express is very clear.

I can't see you, I can't hear your questions.

To sum it up, it's about ignoring you. (To be continued......)
