Chapter 278: Too Fast

Without much adjustment, De Bruyne fired a powerful volley straight into the far corner.

Jose swooped down quickly to the left side of the goal.

However, Terry, who was returning to the defense, stretched out his foot to block and the ball turned halfway through the way and flew towards the bottom right corner of the goal.

José was speechless on the spot.

Terry's defensive spirit is indeed worth emulating, but as he gets older, his movements are getting sluggish and sluggish.

was so stirred up by Terry, Jose used the plug-in so much, and it was too late to save.

The ball rolls into the net from the bottom right corner of the goal.

Manchester City lead 1-0.

If that score continues until the end, it will be Manchester City who advance.

The Etihad audience erupted.

The situation fell behind and Chelsea had to step up their attack.

In the 79th minute, Oscar counterattacked and made a direct pass.

Willian's shot from the left side of the box.

Willian's shot was so powerful that it looked like it was about to cross the goal line.

Joe Hart arrived just in time to keep the ball out on the goal line.

Video replays showed that the ball was just one centimetre away from crossing the goal line in its entirety.

Chelsea missed a great opportunity.

In the 84th minute, Manchester City began to make substitutions.

Yaya Toure replaces Kevin De Bruyne.

City fans gave a standing ovation and De Bruyne would be one of the biggest contributors if City could progress to the last four.

Pellegrini replaced De Bruyne, not only because he enjoyed the applause of the fans, but also because Yaya Toure's defensive ability was much stronger.

In the 86th minute, Cesar Azpilicueta crossed from the left.

Costa stabs an empty shot from close range.

The ball went in.

However, it was ruled invalid for offside.

Chelsea have not been able to change the course of events.

With Delph coming on for David Silva and Heheanacho for Sergio Aguero, City retreated to their own half.

Before he knew it, José had reached the center circle.

In the 89th minute, Manchester City successfully broke the ball.

Straight big foot long pass through the half.

Iheanacho rushed out quickly, trying to hit Jose by surprise.

In everyone's mind, Jose is just a goalkeeper, and his speed is definitely impossible to be faster than Iheanacho.

It's just that their ideas are outrageously wrong, not to mention that Iheanacho himself is not known for his speed, even if Sterling is on the field, he is not as fast as Jose.

I saw Jose suddenly accelerate, shook off Iheanacho far away, and grabbed the ball first.

After Jose got the ball, he went directly to the frontcourt, although Jose's dribbling ability is average, but without interference, he can already advance without slowing down.

Near the center circle, Yaya Toure pressed towards Jose.

Of course, Jose could not dribble the ball into the opponent's half, so in the face of Yaya Toure's pressing, Jose made a decisive move.

The ball flew like a precision-guided missile towards the Manchester City goal.

It happened suddenly, and Joe Hart obviously didn't expect Jose to suddenly shoot from a long distance, so he could only make a save in a panic.

Joe Hart barely managed to keep the ball out.

However, the second drop was taken by Costa.

Costa faced an empty goal and had to kick the goal.

Suddenly, a blue figure struck.

It was Mangala, and he took down Costa directly.

"Beep, beep~" The referee blew the whistle for a foul.

Red Dot Package.

In the final stages, Mangala was sent off with a straight red card.

Chelsea were awarded a penalty.

At this moment, the fans on both sides were extremely nervous.

Who's going to take the penalty?

If it had been before, Chelsea's penalty would have undoubtedly been taken by Frank Lampard.

However, since Frank Lampard's departure, there has been no consistent penalty taker in Chelsea's squad.

No, Chelsea still have Jose.

Mourinho waved at Jose: "Ho, you go." ”

"Okay." Jose did not shirk and walked directly towards the Manchester City penalty area, while not forgetting to say to Hazard: "Until I go back to the defense, I am not afraid of fouls. ”

Jose's meaning is very clear, he is not afraid to face penalties, as long as he blocks the opposition's shot before he returns to goal, any price is acceptable.

Coming to the Manchester City penalty area, Jose smiled at Joe Hart and said: "You've seen me take a penalty, right? ”

Joe Hart knew that Jose was playing psychological warfare, and he didn't want to pay attention to José in the first place, so he didn't answer.

"I think you'd better protect yourself." José continued.

José's move, in addition to fighting psychological warfare, is also a sincere reminder to the other party.

Although it is inevitable that players will be injured in football, there is no deep hatred between the two sides, and there is no need to hurt each other.

"Thank you." Joe Hart nodded.

As much as he has been pumping himself up, it's impossible for him not to know that Jose was able to hit a 220 ball speed.

A ball with a speed of 220 mph will definitely hurt people if they hit a person's body if they don't do a good job of protection.

Jose didn't say anything more, picked up the ball and carefully looked for the point of force.

Find the point of force and carefully place the ball on the penalty spot.

Stretch the run-up distance as much as possible.

"Beep~" The referee's whistle sounded, and Jose moved.

I saw him rushing towards the penalty spot at a sprinting speed.

"Bang~" There was a bang, and after Jose touched the ball, the ball flew towards the upper left side of the goal at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

Joe Hart was right, but he didn't have time to make a pounce.

It's just that Jose's ball speed is too fast, too fast.

The ball went in.

Thanks to Jose's goal, Chelsea turned the game around.

Scoring the crucial goal, Jose did not celebrate, but ran towards his own penalty area as fast as he could, and he did not want to be happy and sad to happen to him.

At the last minute, Jose equalized from the penalty spot, and the blow to Manchester City can be imagined.

In stoppage time, City went on the attack, but the tide was gone.

With Kevin De Bruyne, David Silva and Sergio Aguero all sideline, Jose will have enough confidence to cope as long as his players don't make mistakes.

"Beep, beep, beep~" When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Chelsea fans burst into cheers in the stands.

Jose Mourinho raced around the pitch with excitement, having not led his side to the last four of the Champions League for years.

Since leading Inter Milan to the Champions League, Mourinho has lost all his luck in the Champions League.

Even with the mighty Real Madrid, he could not reproduce the glory of the past.

Now that he has led the team to the last four again, Mourinho is of course excited.

Only Manchester City is extremely disappointed, after so many years, Mansour's investment is not small, but in the Champions League, they have always struggled to make satisfactory progress.

It is foreseeable that Pellegrini will be out at the end of the season, which is already a certainty.

As for who will succeed Manuel Pellegrini?

The consensus is that Pep Guardiola is the only possibility.

Mansour is not short of money, while Guardiola has his own philosophy, and the cooperation between the two can be said to be a match made in heaven.

No matter what, the Premier League will not be lonely in the future.
