Chapter 48: Helpless Cech

"The ball is in! Two to zero!

It's so exciting! No one expected that Tottenham, who were playing away, would be able to lead Chelsea 2-0 in the first half!

Oh, and we watched the replay, and the ball hit the leg of the home centre-back Gary Cahill and changed the line.

You can't blame Cech for not reacting, there's no way to change it. ”

Mourinho's brow furrowed, which was not what he expected.

The Portuguese didn't understand why Tottenham were in such good form today, with the players on the pitch all looking better than usual.

Looking down at his watch, there was not much time left in the first half, so let's wait for the midfield to make adjustments.

Harry Kane's header was deflected wide and Eriksen burst into the left side of the box and fired a right-footed shot into the far corner that grazed the post.

Frank Lampard's free-kick cross was met by Nemanja Matic's header that rose high from the edge of the six-yard box and missed the woodwork.

Gary Cahill's cross was met by Dembele's powerful shot from the edge of the box that was saved by Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech.

Then there was a mistake at the back of the Spurs and Samuel Eto'o burst into the right side of the box and fired wide of the near corner.

In the final stages of the first half, Chelsea, who were attacking with all their might to get a goal back, had a fierce confrontation with Tottenham, who had been beaten by Benjamin.

In the end, neither side was able to score again, and the score went into the break with a score of 2-0.

Before entering the players' tunnel, Mourinho and Benjamin looked at each other deeply.

Benjamin knew it was Tottenham's performance that made the other side really value him.

He also led the team to a two-goal lead over the Blues on the road "on his own", so he glared back without stage fright.

Mourinho looked down and smiled, turned and walked straight into the home team's dressing room.

When did even a hairy boy like Benjamin dare to fight himself head-on?

Jose Mourinho was ready to scold the unscrupulous guys in the dressing room.

"What did I say before? You can! I've always believed that you can do it!

By now you should be aware, Jose Mourinho's Chelsea are not an invincible team! Even if it's Stamford Bridge! ”

Benjamin also didn't know what kind of adjustments Mourinho would make in the second half, and whether they could withstand the opposition's attack.

So he still seized the time to mobilize the players again.

'In the second half, there will be substitutions, but we just have to stay the same.

In order to equalise, Chelsea will press hard and we will counter-attack and rush into the space behind them!

Of course it's best not to concede a goal, but don't worry if the opponent goes in, it's us who are leading the score.

As long as we score more than them at the end of the game, the final victory is ours! ”

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and Chelsea did make the first substitutions.

Jose Mourinho brought on Oscar for Frank Lampard, who was targeted for a misperformance in the first half.

Benjamin smiled slightly and glanced at Mourinho not far away, he predicted the Portuguese's substitution.

Ten minutes into the second half, the two sides battled fiercely in midfield, but there were relatively many passing errors, and neither of them could create any threat in front of the opponent's goal.

Tottenham must be happy to see such a situation, and Mourinho is a little unable to sit still.

Demba Ba, Torres and Willian were called by Mourinho to warm up and be ready to play at any time.

The home team's offensive is also becoming more and more fierce, and Tottenham, who are not in a hurry to attack, simply retreat to their own half to strengthen the defense.

After cutting inside to the middle, Schurrle's long-range shot from outside the box is deflected wide.

Two minutes later, Branislav Ivanovic crossed from the flank and Hazard's shot was blocked by Kyle Walker.

Benjamin noticed that something was wrong and was about to go to the sideline to alert the players on the field.

Before he could speak, Chelsea striker Samuel Eto'o fired a low shot from the edge of the box.

In the 59th minute, the home team finally achieved results under a series of attacks.

Two to one!

The Blues at home pulled a goal back!

Samuel Eto'o ran to the stands after scoring and fired back at criticism from the media and fans for his age with a gesture of celebration from his waist.

It was also Cheetah's eighth league goal of the season.

The Chelsea fans in the stands were instantly set on fire, and a sea of blue was churning and cheering on the team.

"Fight back! I let you defend and counterattack, but I didn't let you just defend and not fight back?! Attack when you get the chance! ”

They have only just pulled a goal back, and Jose Mourinho's side will not stop there, and they will certainly continue to bombard.

Tottenham were denied by Nemanja Matic as soon as they kicked off, and the home team once again left only one goalkeeper at the back and pressed the attack.

Oscar dribbled the ball in the middle to seek a breakthrough, and an inconspicuous little black player appeared out of nowhere, stretched out his foot to steal the ball.

Oscar, who had just come on as a substitute in the second half, failed his first encounter with N'Golo Kante.

The Brazilian looked at the Frenchman viciously after losing possession, and he couldn't figure out why his opponent could break the ball from his feet so easily.

In the nick of time, N'Golo Kante split the ball down the left flank, and Danny Ross dribbled all the way through at high speed.

In the blink of an eye, Kane and Lamela were in place, and Rose passed the ball out.

Will it be Kane or Lamela? Cech was alone in the penalty area, not daring to be careless.

Kane also didn't stop the ball, and when no one was marked, he didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground and directly hit the goal sideways with his right foot!

Cech reacted to the limit and flew to the side, just a little closer to the ball.

It's a pity to watch Kane's shot fly into the goal with his fingertips.

"Three to one!

The visitors once again stretched the gap to two goals!

In the 65th minute of the game, Harry Kane scored a wonderful volley and went straight to the corner of the goal!

Mourinho looks like he's going to make another substitution adjustment! ”

Nemanja Matic and Schurrle were substituted, with Demba Ba and Willian coming off the bench.

"Oh? It doesn't seem to be a substitution in the opposite position, with a midfielder and a striker, which shows that Chelsea are going to give it a go!

We'll take a look at the position on the pitch and find out how the Blues have changed. ”

Mourinho stood on the sidelines, shouting at the pitch from time to time, accompanied by exaggerated body movements.

It could be seen that he was really in a hurry, and the smile on Benjamin's face became even bigger.

Mourinho's substitution did have an immediate effect, as Willian's long-range effort after a lateral break was saved by Lloris.

The ensuing corner was also snatched up by Demba Ba, and the Sergal striker squeezed away compatriot Mane, who was back in the box to defend, and fired a powerful volley straight into the stands.

The two new players did strengthen the home team's attack, but inevitably, there were some problems on the defensive end.

Willian broke down the flank again, Danny Ross made a clean tackle and Mane sprinted along the left flank at high speed.

The game has entered stoppage time, and several of Tottenham's front-court players can still run!

Three ghosts knock on the door!

Against a trio of Tottenham players, Petr Cech looked a little helpless.

Sadio Mane returned the favor by passing the ball to Harry Kane, who had selflessly assisted him in the first half.

Smashing past the goalkeeper to score the ball steadily, Kane scored a hat-trick!
