Withstanding the pressure of Sevilla's counter-attack, Chelsea were the first to attack and tear apart Sevilla's defence.

The Chelsea players on the pitch gathered around Leon to celebrate near the bottom line of the Sevilla half.

Mourinho on the field is also clenching his hands into fists at the moment, with a confident smile on his face.

Ahead of the UEFA Super Cup, almost all continental sports media predicted that Chelsea would play a steady game, using stronger defensive and possession tactics to contain Sevilla's performance.

After all, in the past two seasons, Mourinho led the team to play cup finals basically like this.

In the Champions League final more than two months ago, Mourinho dragged the whole Atletico Madrid team into a battle of physical attrition, which is simply not too steady!

So when Mourinho changed his tactical tone and fought hard against Sevilla at the beginning of today's game, many media reporters on the sidelines were surprised!

But when they came back to their senses and saw that Chelsea had taken the lead at the moment, they had to admit it.

Chelsea do have the quality to play against any team in football right now!

Jose Mourinho's team over the past few seasons has given fans and the media the impression that they are solid defensively and sharp on the counter-attack.

In contrast, "strong defense" is the mark that Mourinho's team cannot shake off.

But the stats don't lie, even from Jose Mourinho's time in charge of Inter Milan, his team has been able to achieve the first place in attacking firepower in the league.

In previous seasons in La Liga, M Moham's Real Madrid also beat Barcelona to lead in goals for two consecutive seasons.

At that time, Barcelona was still at the tail of its peak, far from being comparable to the current rebuilding Barcelona.

Chelsea are now ahead of Manchester City in the Premier League.

So judging from the straightforward data, Mourinho's Chelsea is indeed a super team with fierce attacking firepower.

There is no shortage of classic battles to defeat opponents with large scores, and there is no shortage of classic scenes of strong attacks to tear through the opponent's bus defense.

The reason why this Chelsea team still has the impression that they are stronger defensively is still there.

That's because when it comes to an important cup final, the whole Chelsea team will use more secure tactics to subdue their opponents.

Again, take the Champions League final between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid more than two months ago.

If Mourinho's tactical approach had been to storm Atletico throughout the game, Chelsea's main players would still be confident that they would have won the game!

Playing against attack, this Chelsea team is not afraid of any opponent.

Forcing the balance of the game at the moment and scoring against Sevilla was nothing to be expected for Chelsea's players.

As for Mourinho, he didn't have any idea of teasing the media and fans in this game.

He's still the pragmatist.

Because when making tactical arrangements before the game, Chelsea's coaching staff agreed that it would be easier for them to win today's game with an attacking focus.

So Mourinho finally made the decision to play against Sevilla.

It's as simple as that.

After all, Sevilla and Atletico Madrid are not opponents of the same grade at all, and it would be too wasteful to use the same tactical means to deal with Sevilla as they did against Atletico Madrid~

However, self-confidence is self-confidence, after taking the lead, Mourinho still gave the disciples on the field the first tactical instructions not to relax and to continue to focus on attacking!

After accepting the congratulations of his teammates, Li Ang also applauded and signaled the whole team not to let up.

It's not safe to score just one goal, they have to try to score a second goal in the first half as much as possible!

The tactical tone of continuing to play against Sevilla will not change, but after returning to his own half, Leon has taken the initiative to retreat from his position.

In doing so, he appeared to have weakened the attacking initiative of Chelsea's midfield, but in reality, his retreat directly freed Nemanja Matic and Kroos.

In today's football world, the only one who dares to really pat his chest and say that he can play a single back to support a giant's offensive and defensive conversion, is Li Ang!

Nemanja Matic is outstanding, and if Leon is not in the Premier League right now, he will be the number one defender in the Premier League.

But Mourinho will not let Matic become the team's true lone midfielder in any way.

Looking at the past line-up, Matic will either partner with Kroos and drag behind, or he will be a one-man lag in position, but in fact, Leon will always protect and sweep in front of him.

His frontal interception ability, high-altitude aerial fighting ability are among the best in football, and his organizational ability to hold the ball is also very good.

But he is also easy to be targeted by opponents to hit the ball behind him, and when he encounters a speed-type attacker, Matic is still very easy to lose.

Leon, on the other hand, would not have such a problem.

He is the only midfielder in the true sense of the word who has no dead ends in active football!

His technique combined with his size is just right, tall but not overly tall, strong yet flexible, with a lot of defensive coverage and fast retracement.

Theoretically, he could handle any attacking player in football right now.

So if necessary, Mourinho will only let Leon drag back to play the lone midfielder.

At this moment, Leon took the initiative to retreat to the position, which directly allowed Matic and Kroos to actively insert it.

With his back-up defense, Chelsea's attacking players are completely relieved to press forward boldly!

But for the players on the pitch in Sevilla after the restart.

Leon's retreat defense was like a blow to the head, and they were a little overwhelmed.

After all, although Leon has been away from La Liga for more than two years, most of the players on the field in Sevilla have been targeted and restricted by Leon in La Liga.

They can't forget the taste of being defended by Leon.

At the beginning of this game, Leon put a lot of energy into the offensive end, so they didn't play against Leon very much.

But now looking at Leon's retracement position, they will inevitably continue to fight with the No. 1 defender in La Liga in the past!

Several of Sevilla's main attacking players on the pitch are inevitably having some headaches at this time.

Banega subconsciously increased the proportion of passes, and no longer actively looked for opportunities to cut forward as before.

But he ended up playing in the back and he had no problem doing so, but his midfield team-mate Iborra had to go up and face Leon head-on.

No way, who made him play in the midfield? Just in time to be in the opposite position with Leon.

In the 20th minute of the first half, Iborra received the ball for the first time in the game and played against Leon.

He originally wanted to pull the side with the ball to avoid Li Ang's interception pressure, but as soon as he made a move, Li Ang decisively gave him a close confrontation and block!

Iborra's figure should not suffer a loss, after all, he is a big man who is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms.

But somehow, at the moment when the two were close to each other, Iborra's mind had the fear of being targeted and dominated by Leon when he was in Levante......

Leon was also very quick with his feet while going up to the confrontation, and he directly stabbed the football controlled by Iborra.

The close grappling between the two was not long, almost only a second, after the wrong body, Ibora was a little stunned, but Leon had already got the ball and began to push forward!

Leon, who gave the ball to Kroos in the advance, completed his task in this counter-attacking attack.

Kroos played again in the number 10 position for the first time in a long time, and coquettishly stuffed the ball to Eden Hazard, who was directly behind the Sevilla defence.

It's a pity that the king of the ball did not succeed in cutting inside with the ball this time, and was stopped by Rami in the Sevilla penalty area.

Sevilla, who regained possession, were on the counter-attack from Chelsea, but this time Reyes was not so lucky.

His dribbling on the touchline didn't even threaten Azpilicueta's defence!

Because at the critical moment when he just received the ball and turned to speed, Li Ang decisively shoveled him out of the sideline with the ball!

Two key top defences in quick succession interrupted Sevilla's attacking progress!

Leon also showed his important value in the midfield position for the first time in a long time.

Those two defences did not directly help Chelsea to take a further lead, but they did hit Sevilla's attacking morale.

In contrast, Chelsea, for their part, can be more comfortable continuing to press the attack.

Under the situation of the other, the situation on the field is also further tilted in Chelsea's favor.

The countless Chelsea fans in front of the TV were completely relieved.

Mourinho watched the game from the sidelines for a while, and boldly signaled to the wing-backs to press actively.

After several unsuccessful counter-attacks, Sevilla will throw themselves into disarray.

That's when Chelsea need to be decisive in attack!

Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne could take in the position and receive the ball or burst forward in the rib areas on either side of Sevilla's half.

And Azpilicueta and Kieran Trippier were able to act like traditional wingers at this time, straight behind Sevilla's pinned down wings and deliver threatening crosses!

Nemanja Matic, who stepped in from behind, could share the pressure on Suarez in the box.

Kroos, who was pressed at the top of the arc of the Sevilla penalty area, could calmly handle the second penalty, or make a tactical foul at the first time to stop Sevilla's counterattack......

Chelsea's attacking routine is completely interlocking, with high pressing offense mixed with aggressive pressing defence!

Under heavy pressure, Sevilla's backline began to make frequent mistakes.

In the 35th minute of the first half, De Bruyne, who was in the middle of the midfield, received the ball with his back, and then decisively swept the ball to the side!

Kieran Trippier stepped forward and led the ball past Sevilla right-back Tremualina!

Suarez and Nemanja Matic, who had already pressed into the Sevilla penalty area, misplaced and began to attack Sevilla's goal.

But Trippier did not rush to send the cross at the first time, but saw the opportunity of Sevilla central defender Krehovia to adduct the position, and chose to decisively cut inside into the Sevilla penalty area!

His choice immediately made the defenders in the Sevilla penalty area nervous.

Rami yelled and instructed the midfielder Banega to hurry up and intercept Trippier!

However, the full-back Tremulina, who was one step ahead of Banega, was already on the defensive from behind Trippier at this time!

The two grappled together, and Tremulina could barely be seen in the live footage as he seemed to be in a hurry to kick out from behind Trippier.

And then, Kieran Trippier fell in the Sevilla penalty area as if he had been seriously violated!

Sevilla's goalkeeper Beto felt a chill in his heart at the moment.

He immediately shook his finger and rushed to the referee, who was also running towards the place of the incident, and repeatedly showed that his teammates did not foul.

Sevilla's defenders also swarmed up and went straight to the referee, seemingly not wanting him to make a decision so quickly.

But after receiving the linesman's assistance signal, the referee on duty still decisively took out a topaz battle card from his pocket!

Seeing this scene, tens of thousands of Sevilla fans at the scene covered their heads and exhaled.

"Yellow card plus penalty! There was nothing wrong with the referee's decision! We could clearly see from the replay that Tremulina tripped Trippier from behind!

The French full-back may not have done it on purpose, but it was the case, and the yellow card he received was not wronged at all! ”

Zhan Jun, who jumped from PPTV to LeTV Sports this summer, is now in the new studio, as always, giving passionate live commentary to the domestic audience.

At this moment, the fans in China are also like Zhan Jun, excitedly looking at Li Ang who trotted forward from the backcourt in the live broadcast camera!

The referee's decision was decided, and the Sevilla players were angry or disappointed, and at this time they could only disperse from their own penalty area.

Leon took the football from Kroos' hand and walked to the penalty spot with a calm face.

"This penalty is unwarranted! I'll pounce on it! ”

Beto yelled at Leon at this time, but his facial expression didn't look as confident as his tone.

Leon ignored him, set the ball up and retreated to the penalty line.

As soon as the referee's whistle blew, he strode straight for the ball and then unleashed his trademark powerful slam!

Beto made his choice with great determination at this moment, and he pounced on the left side of the goal!

But the football drawn by Li Ang went straight to the middle of the goal in a daze!

The football crashed into the net behind the Sevilla goal for the second time in the first half without any suspense!

Leon deliberately slowed down the pace of celebration this time.

When his teammates caught up with him, he made a celebratory gesture and then laughed and led his teammates to a mass kneeling at the bottom of the Sevilla half!

The International Stadium in Tbilisi was also filled with the cheers of Chelsea fans!

After scoring two goals, Chelsea supporters completely abandoned their inhibitions and began to celebrate the team's sixth crown of the year!

They could have opened the champagne early, but the players on the pitch still need to keep a cool head and not get too early.

With a two-goal lead, Chelsea don't need to go toe-to-toe with Sevilla again.

There was no need for Mourinho to give any tactical instructions in advance, and after the game restarted again, the whole Chelsea team directly shrunk the formation and began to defend with all their might!

Sevilla, who were stuck to the half-time and had suffered a serious demoralisation from Sevilla, had little to attack.

The 2-0 scoreline was held on by Chelsea until the break.

And at the beginning of the second half of the game, Chelsea played a furious initiative attack!

Sevilla were once again beaten by Chelsea!

Chelsea, who had taken the absolute initiative in the game, continued to put pressure on the Sevilla backline.

In the 57th minute of the second half, Leon, who had honestly defended for almost half time, suddenly stepped forward with the ball again, completely disrupting the defensive layout of the Sevilla midfield!

After Banega was forced to cooperate with his teammates to contain Leon, the almost unguarded Nemanja Matic received the ball from Leon in time!

In the rib area on the left side of the Sevilla half, after winning the ball, Xiao Ma only made a brief observation, and then sent a pass with a comfortable foot!

Suarez, who was running right at the back of the Sevilla penalty area, jumped forward like a ghost!

The Uruguayan striker unloaded the ball almost perfectly, and then he decisively pushed it into the far corner!

It was a perfect display of Suarez's subtle movement and superb shooting.

Beto had done his best to save, but he was still a little slower!

As soon as the goal was scored, Chelsea completely sealed the game!

Jose Mourinho replaced De Bruyne with Van Ginkel five minutes later, and the secret card was to strengthen the defensive quality of the central midfield.

Sevilla were pushed to the brink and their manager Unai Emery had no choice but to make early substitutions to send in attacking back-ups.

Konoplyanka and Immobile, two Sevilla substitute forwards, were replaced by Unai Emery.

Today's game, however, was replaced by full-back Tremullina and a midfielder, Crondelly.

Sevilla made a desperate attempt to attack, but at this moment, Chelsea had no idea of continuing to counterattack, that is, half-time!

Later, Mourinho also took advantage of two substitutions to slightly disrupt Sevilla's attacking momentum, replacing Callas and Gary Cahill in succession.

Goalscorer Luis Suarez and Kroos, who played well in midfield today, were substituted.

Chelsea put on a super bus formation with six defenders and four midfielders in the last minute, and the players on the field of Sevilla were miserable!

In the end, the referee on duty pinched his watch and blew the whistle, and the Sevilla players were finally relieved.

And the whole Chelsea team also welcomed their sixth trophy of the year in the midst of the cheers of the whole stadium!

As the captain of the team, Li Ang led the team to win the European Super Cup and also won the second six crowns of his career!

Although he is still one step away from winning the final Club World Cup of the year to claim the club honours Grand Slam at Chelsea.

But at this moment, with two six-time champions in hand, he has undoubtedly become the first person to honor the top honor in the new era of football!

The next update may be after midnight, and the bigwigs who can't wait can get up tomorrow to see it
