Chapter 267: The Fifth Crown of the Year
In the second half, Chelsea's tactics were the same, but the situation was completely different from the first. Mainly Chelsea players, who not only showed the individual ability of superstars, but also had an aura, which was a kind of domineering spirit.
Chelsea quickly regained dominance in midfield and then, as they did last season, established themselves in midfield and unleashed wave after wave of attacks.
In the 47th minute, Grosso, who had assisted the assist, shifted the ball to the right with a long pass, and Joe Cole received the ball and took two steps across the bar before suddenly getting up and shooting just over the crossbar.
In the fiftieth minute, Gerrard hoisted the ball into the penalty area in the corner of the penalty area, Kaka, who assisted in the opponent's penalty area, passed the ball back near the bottom line, and Rooney, who followed him, raised his foot to play, and the shot on the penalty line was miraculously saved by Lehmann. Toure immediately cleared the ball with a big foot.
In the 51st minute, Frank Lampard sent a beautiful through ball in midfield, Owen received the ball and stabbed it straight to the ground, and the onrushing Lehmann sealed the ball off the line, Owen missed the chance to score a hat-trick.
Arsenal's defence was in jeopardy under Chelsea's onslaught, and if it weren't for Lehmann's impressive performance, Chelsea's lead would have been extended.
However, the goal that Blues fans were expecting was not delayed too late, and in the 58th minute, Chelsea's biggest name in the transfer market this summer was Steve Brown. Gerrard scored with a wonderful shijie wave goal!
Signature long-range shot!
It was a low cross from Rooney that broke through the wing, and Owen, who had the ball with his back, couldn't get out of the space at the first time. A nudge just got to the feet of his former team-mate Gerrard, who was poised just outside the box.
This "wing-center-outside" tactical play is the routine that Owen and Gerrard are most familiar with at Liverpool, and sure enough, it was Gerrard who volleyed a low flat ball from 23 meters from goal.
The ball flew out against the turf. The white trail flickered, and the ball had slammed into the net.
The goal works!
The first goal of the second half came from midfield reinforcement Steve Brown. Gerrard!
Steven Gerrard's goal left tens of thousands of Blues fans in attendance ecstatic, and if it had been for Kaka, Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney, they might not have been so excited. Because the goals of these players are all too familiar to them.
But Gerrard is different, you know. He's only been on his move to Chelsea for just a week!
To be able to integrate into a new team in such a short period of time, and to score in a strong conversation like Arsenal, undoubtedly stimulated the enthusiasm of the majority of fans even more, for a while. Inside the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Mountains and tsunamis!
But that's just the beginning.
In the 74th minute, Ribery burst into the box and fired a beautiful bocci ball into the corner of the net almost in a straight line from a tight angle, leaving Lehmann, who had been so good before, in vain.
Like Steven Gerrard, Franck Ribery's goal was applauded by the crowd.
Unlike Steven Gerrard, Ribery is now so unknown that Blues fans didn't even know about the player. It wasn't until they heard that Qiao Wanxian was going to bring in Ribery from Marseille that they knew that there was another person named Frank on this shijie. Ribery player.
But Joe's cannon is Joe's cannon. Ribery, who came on as a substitute for Joe Cole, came on to show a very high standard, and several sharp breakthroughs were even more pleasing than Joe Cole. Zuihou's shot is even more exciting!
This Frenchman, who looks a little immoral, is indeed very capable!
On the other hand, Arsenal, Hleb, who was given high hopes by Arsene Wenger, has been replaced, and he has been completely suppressed by Chelsea on the field, and can only use the personal ability of Henry in front of him to create some chances through counter-attacks.
Obviously, this is just a drop in the bucket.
In the 80th minute, Rooney received a pass from Kaka in the corner of the box and slammed it hard, Campbell turned sideways to block the ball with his hand, and the referee was aware of the penalty award.
Gerrard, who had been under pressure to score a hat-trick, stood in front of the penalty spot, and the other players were clearly willing to give up such an opportunity.
"Bang!"
With Gerrard's powerful shot, the score was rewritten again, 5:0!
It's the familiar scene again, the Chelsea massacre!
No matter who the opponent is, Qiao Wanxian always adheres to the attitude of treating everyone equally, and will lead Chelsea to stage a hearty slaughter.
Of course, for Gunners fans, this is an indelible pain.
In the end, the score on the field was locked at 5:0, and Gerrard finally failed to complete the military order that Qiao Wanxian forced on him, thinking that the three-week salary would disappear, Gerald felt empty in his heart.
No wonder Chelsea are doing so well! If you don't score, you'll be fined, Joe Cannon, he's such a wonder!
When the half-time whistle blew, 40,000 Chelsea fans transformed the entire Millennium Stadium into a sea of joy.
The first champion of the new season!
Fifth crown in 2005!
Although it was a very humble title, watching John Terry lift the winning silver plate of the Community Shield was a frenzy for every Blues fan, and the enthusiasm, the excitement, was no different from when the team lifted the Big Ears Cup.
Because the team is making history in football and is challenging for the Grand Slam title! 2005 is destined to be the year of blue, the year of Chelsea!
After the game, Wenger was asked about the idea of losing this game, and the professor only replied lightly, saying that it was just a friendly match with medals, and the score was not important, the key was to train the players and prepare for the new season.
When asked about the performance of new signing Hleb, Wenger's old face was a little unbearable.
Speaking of which, it doesn't matter if you Gerrard performed better than Hleb, after all, Gerrard is the absolute main force of the England national team, a rising star in the Premier League, and is very famous. But the tattered Ribery that was picked up by Jovin from France has such an amazing performance that it is a bit too much to say.
You know, Arsene Wenger is French!
Even Wenger couldn't eat it and couldn't look down on the French players, but they were dug out by Qiao Wanxian and showed an absolute star temperament, which simply made Wenger hate, angry and jealous!
Weishenme's cheap and excellent young players were bought by Joe's cannon?
Whether it is La Liga, the Russian Premier League, Serie A or French Ligue 1, or even La B, there is a record of Qiao Wan idle, is it possible that you have a scouting team of 100 people?
Otherwise where would you go to collect information on so many players!
Ironically, though, I heard that last month, the club cut seven scouts, and it is said that Joe Cannon did not think it was necessary to waste the club's funds.
Wenger was stunned at this time, what is going on?
Without scouts, how dare you buy people?
It's okay to buy people, the players bought by Weishenme have such a good performance?
Arsene Wenger has always been known for his discerning talent and ability to develop young players, but even he has to admit that Qiao Wanxian is indeed superior in this regard. (To be continued......)
