Chapter 229: Angels and Demons (Subscription Requested)
After hearing Costa's complaint, McDean immediately communicated with the linesman through a headset.
After the exchange, McDean took out the red card from his pocket and sent Gabriel off directly!
When Gabriel saw that he was sent off for a direct red card, he was immediately furious and was about to step forward to reason with Costa.
However, Costa's goal has been achieved, and he has long been away from the other party.
Enraged, Gabriel was held by Koscielny to prevent the conflict from escalating further.
Arsene Wenger was unhappy with McDean's decision, believing that Costa should have taken the cards first.
Live chat room.
"Costa is a dirty B."
"It's disgusting, a player like Costa deserves a permanent ban."
"Before, I thought Pepe was dirty when he played football, but it made me see Atletico who were dirtier, and now Costa is dirtier than Atletico."
"Costa, you're so bad, I like it so much."
“.”
After the game, the FA officially announced that Costa and Gabriel were suspended for three games at the same time, and the matter finally came to an end.
In the second half, Chambers replaced Coquelin.
Chelsea, who played with one more man, completely controlled the game.
Oscar's cross from the right was cleared, but the ball didn't fly out of the box.
Fifteen yards out on the right side of the box, Pedro volleyed into the near corner with a half-volley.
It's a pity that it hit high.
Arsenal counter-attack.
Got a free-kick in front.
The penalty spot was just 22 yards from goal.
Jose immediately instructed his teammates to line up the human wall.
Alexis Sanchez takes the free-kick.
Direct shot.
The ball hit the wall.
With the help of God's perspective, the human wall that Jose expelled was not so easy to cross.
With one more player, Chelsea finally broke the deadlock in the 53rd minute.
Ramsey fouled Oscar and Chelsea were awarded a free-kick.
The penalty spot is 35 yards from the goal.
Cesc Fabregas takes the free-kick.
Diagonal pass to the right side of the penalty area.
Kurt Zouma came out from the right and leaped straight to the top.
The ball hit the ground and bounced into the net.
Cech is brilliant, but there is nothing he can do about this strange bouncing ball.
Chelsea are 1-0 up.
Kurt Zouma looked thrilled after scoring because it was his first Premier League goal.
At this time, the live camera was given to Terry on the bench, and he was seen giving a standing ovation.
Jose Mourinho has been rumored to have groomed Kurt Zouma as Terry's successor.
Kurt Zouma scored, Terry applauded, signaling the replacement of the old and the new?
The game continues.
Jose simply didn't have many opportunities to perform.
The hot derby that is said to be good has nothing to do with Jose at all.
José was happy to have a good time.
Soon, Chelsea were in front of the Arsenal penalty area again.
Cesar Azpilicueta passes the ball to Eden Hazard.
Hazard took the ball and cut inside, and in front of the left penalty area, Hazard shot hard.
It's a pity that he couldn't get past Cech's ten fingers.
In fact, Arsenal are not without opportunities.
In the 55th minute, Sanchez forced his way into the penalty area under the defense of Cahill and Zouma.
In the face of the menacing Sanchez, Jose shouted loudly and was about to attack and intercept.
On the right side of the penalty area, five yards out in front of goal, Sanchez hurriedly got up and shot at goal.
The result is high.
José's loud shout still had an impact on him.
Today's Jose is no longer the obscurity he was when he first debuted, but he is an existence that MSN and BBC groups have hated one after another.
Although one or two games of performance don't say much, Jose's performance has been steadily improving since his debut.
This also makes most of the forwards under a lot of pressure when facing Jose.
Two minutes later, Arsenal were in front of the box again.
Unfortunately, Walcott's shot still deviated from the direction of the goal.
In the 69th minute, Mourinho began to make a substitution.
Ramirez came off the bench and Oscar, who had recently received a yellow card, was replaced.
It seems that Mourinho also has a scruple about "Card Master".
Since then, Arsene Wenger has also been replaced by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Olivier Giroud.
It was Sanchez and 272 who were replaced.
Arsene Wenger is intensifying the tempo of the wide attack.
Sanchez has a strong individual breakthrough ability, but too much dribbling delays the efficiency of counter-attacks.
And Chamberlain solved this problem very well.
As for bringing on Giroud, of course, it was to add to the high post in the box.
Who says Arsene Wenger can only play passing?
Under Mourinho's pressure, Arsene Wenger will also try to drop the cross.
Arsene Wenger's ideas are beautiful, but the reality is always cruel.
In the 79th minute, Cesc Fabregas picked up the ball at the back.
Cazorla tried to make a tackle in front, but failed to touch the ball and brought down Cesc Fabregas.
In the first half, Cazorla had already received a yellow card.
At this point, it is foul and seems very out of place.
If it had been another referee, he might have let Cazorla go for the sake of balance.
But it was "Card Master" McDean who officiated the game today.
"Beep, beep~" McDean really didn't restrain his urge to play his cards.
Cazorla turned two yellows and one red and was sent off directly.
Arsene Wenger's side can only cope with nine men.
At this time, the live broadcast camera was given to Professor Wenger, and he shook his head with a crying and laughing.
Then again, has anyone ever seen Professor Arsene Wenger laugh during a game?
Interestingly, according to statistics, this is the 79th red card in Arsenal's history in the Premier League, the joint-most in the Premier League with Everton.
If according to the fan's theory of "the more red cards, the dirtier the play", isn't Arsenal the dirtiest team in the Premier League?
No, the real reason is that Arsenal's players are too young and their ability to withstand pressure is too low.
Perhaps this is also the reason why they repeatedly drop the chain at critical moments.
…
In the 82nd minute, the famous scene of Costa and Mourinho appeared again on the pitch.
Jose Mourinho makes a substitution.
Diego Costa is replaced by Remy.
Costa was visibly unhappy with his substitution.
He may feel that it was his use of agitation that caused Arsenal to play one less.
But for Mourinho, in order for the team to win, he can really use all means, on or off the field.
But the premise of all this is that it must not violate sportsmanship.
Costa's cleverness did help his team to the victory, but if he was suspended for it, it would be more than worth the loss.
Costa returned to the bench with a disgruntled face, and his teammates handed him a yellow jacket as soon as possible.
Then a scene that shocked everyone happened.
After Costa's yellow coat was taken, he threw it at Mourinho's head.
At this moment, everyone was speechless for Costa's wanton behavior.
Is the manager's authority something that a player can provoke? Especially when Abu was still watching the game.
Mourinho didn't look back, even pretending not to know Costa's actions, but his grim face showed that he wasn't unaware of Costa's movements behind his back.
To be sure, Mourinho will not easily forgive Costa for his actions, and as for what he will do, only he knows.
Although José stood in front of the goal, he could see Costa's movements clearly.
"Alas, the rich family is as deep as the sea, which is not bad at all." Jose sighed.
No longer pay attention to what's happening on the sidelines.
…
Before you know it, the 90 minutes of play are coming to an end, and the score on the field is still 1-0.
Just when everyone thought the game was over, Chelsea had another chance to open the scoring.
Remy shoots from the penalty spot in a scuffle, but it's blocked.
Eden Hazard fired a powerful shot from 15 yards and the ball hit Chambers and deflected on the spot.
There was nothing Cech could do about the sudden turn of the ball and could only watch as it flew into the net.
2-0。
Chelsea fans burst into applause from the stands.
Not only because of the goal, but also because of Hazard.
At Stamford Bridge, Eden Hazard has become the darling of the fans.
Jose is outstanding, but he hasn't achieved anything for Chelsea yet.
…
With a two-goal lead, Mourinho decided to use up the last substitution.
Mikel came off the bench and Cesc Fabregas, who had been under attack by Arsenal fans, came off the pitch.
Last-minute stoppage time.
Arsenal are willing to take a go and try to score a goal away from home and save face.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain crosses from the left.
The ball went to Walcott at the near post.
José has been trying to block it, but has been gathering momentum.
Walcott's header is ferried.
The ball flew to the other side, where Ramsey flanked it.
Ramsey receives a pass from a team-mate and volleys straight into the ball.
The ball turned into a white light and flew towards the top right corner of the goal.
Just as the Arsenal fans were ready to celebrate, Jose arrived.
I saw him leap forward, stretch out his hands towards the ball, and very calmly, confiscated Ramsey's shot.
It was Arsenal's second shot on target of the game and their last.
[The task is completed, congratulations to the host for getting the points double reward, your base points are 4000 points.] 】
When referee McDean blew the whistle for the end of the match, the system settled the mission reward on time.
Jose silently closed the system light curtain.
Originally, he was ready to break the ring and use the plug-in, but unexpectedly, Arsenal only had two shots on goal that did not pose much threat in the whole game.
Jose is not as threatened in this game as he was against Everton in the previous round.
This also shows that the strong and weak teams in the Premier League will never be as simple as it seems on the surface.
…
After the game, Wenger turned away without looking back.
No Arsenal man would be willing to accept such a result.
Post-match wrap-up.
Chelsea enjoyed 64 per cent possession and contributed 22 shots on target, including seven on target, and a repeat of the 6-0 of two years ago would not have been out of the question, had it not been for Cech's prowess to repeat the 6-0 of two years ago.
On the other hand, Arsenal, who have always been dominated by possession, only had 36% possession in this game, and only 9 shots on goal, and only 2 shots on goal, and the quality was very average.
It can be said that in today's London derby, Jose did not have any chances to perform.
