Chapter 30: Against Chelsea, Kante's Thoughts!

September 28, CalderΓ³n Stadium.

"Kick Barcelona...... Kick Barcelona...... Kick Bayern Munich ......!! ”

"I'm ......!!"

After a majestic Champions League theme song was played, the home Atletico Madrid players and the visiting Chelsea players stood in their respective halves, waiting for the referee's opening whistle.

The second round of this season's Champions League group stage has finally arrived.

Chen Yufeng took on Belgian national team teammate Eden Hazard and Leicester City's former teammate N'Golo Kante.

Before the game, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.

"Beep!"

It wasn't until the start of the game that Kante slapped Chen Yufeng's ass covertly when he passed by Chen Yufeng.

This move made Chen Yufeng a little at a loss, he glanced back at Kante, who had already run away, and vowed to 'teach a lesson' to this ignorant former teammate today.

"Audience friends, the second round of the Champions League group stage has officially begun! The home team, Atletico Madrid, is a four-four-two formation, and on the forward line, Chen Yufeng and Angel Correa stand side by side. ”

'On the half-time line, Koke, Partey, Saul, Griezmann are lined up from right to left.

'There were no changes at the back, with Godin and Lucas Hernandez in central defence and Juanfran and Felipe on either flank. Goalkeeper Oblak. ”

'Chelsea have a three-four-three formation, which can also be called three-four-two-one.

'Thibaut Courtois in goal, Cahill in the centre-backs, David Luiz and Blues captain Cesar Azpilicueta.

'Four midfielders from left to right, Marcos Alonso, Balyok, N'Golo Kante, Moses.

'Up front are Eden Hazard and Cesc Fabregas, with Alvaro Morata up front as a lone arrow.

"It's a close contest, the Blues and the Sheets have been in great form lately, and the face-to-face duel between Eden Hazard and Chen Yufeng is also very eye-catching, and it's up to who can knock on the other side's door first!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Atletico have a succession of attacks! They have been beaten back by Chelsea's midfield line! Chen Yufeng faces his old teammate N'Golo Kante! ”

"Croquettes plus body card bits! He managed to get past N'Golo Kante! Pretty! Pretty! Kante's expression was a little frightened, he seemed to be saying, I haven't seen you for a long time, why has Chen Yufeng's strength become stronger again? ”

"Hahaha, perhaps, he hasn't felt the intensity of Chen Yufeng's level in the team training match for a long time."

"Chen Yufeng again, continue! Here it comes! Pass it to Correa! Correa...... Ahh Correa wasted a great opportunity! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Morata! Single-handed! ”

'A through ball from Eden Hazard! It turns out that there is punishment for wasting opportunities! ”

"Hit! 1 to 0! Chelsea take the lead on the road! ”

Correa covered his face in pain, if he had scored that goal, nothing would have happened. After he missed the ball, Courtois quickly sent a goal kick and Hazard stopped the ball and got rid of it beautifully, and then distributed the ball to Morata! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Griezmann! Came to his favorite place, the ribs! ”

"Can it be passed on? The angle is relatively small, only the crotch position...... Good! Beautiful crotch pass, Griezmann takes the ball out! ”

"David Luiz and Chen Yufeng fight for explosiveness, which of them can poke a kick first? I'm more optimistic about Chen Yufeng! ”

"Even stopped, chance!!"

"Push and shoot! Break the door through the crotch! Courtois didn't have time to react! ”

Chen Yufeng responded quickly!"

"It's getting faster, and we can clearly feel that! One-to-one! Chen Yufeng equalized the score before the end of the first half! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Inside the stadium, Chen Yufeng roared again and came to his signature kneeling, his back making countless Chelsea players feel a little frightened.

Chen Yufeng is still the same Chen Yufeng of the Premier League, he hasn't changed at all.

No, that's probably not true.

He has changed, but his change is not the decline that everyone expected, but the rise!

Who doesn't know the story of this terrifying goalscorer who scored 16 goals in 6 La Liga rounds?

If you remove the prefix 10 from the 16 balls and leave only a fraction, that's also a super scorer with an average of one goal per game.

It doesn't look like a man played at all, it's more like he entered the first round of La Liga with 10 goals in his own right.

"Could it be that as long as you meet him as an opponent, the end must be only failure?" Hazard's eyes were slightly distracted, and he muttered.

"You're so lucky."

On the side, Kante, who rarely speaks on weekdays, rarely answered, "At least, you are still teammates in next year's World Cup." As long as you're in Belgium, you'll always be teammates. ”

"What about the others? Even if you are lucky enough to stay with him for a while and develop some feelings, you will soon face separation and meet again as rivals. ”

"I've always wanted to play with him, but that's obviously impossible, haha."

Kante ran away with his head down, and Hazard looked back at Kante's back and pondered again.

Kante was right.

Is he really lucky?

…………

"Beep!"

After the start of the second half of this game, the tempo on the pitch was visibly much slower to the naked eye.

The two sides do not give in to each other, desperately attacking or defending every local area, so the rotation of football has always been relatively slow.

This style of kicking is generally referred to as a dead stumbling, and it is only done when the two sides are in an emotional situation.

Otherwise, why not think differently?

But there is no conflict between the Atletico Madrid players and the Chelsea players......

They don't have any grudges in history, how could this happen?

"I guess it's the reason for the competitive spirit, both sides know that this is a crucial battle for qualification from the group, or even the top of the group, and it must be won."

'For Atletico, they certainly can't accept a home defeat to Chelsea. It's the same with Chelsea, even if there's no reason to do it. ”

Liu Peng, the single commentator of the game, explained to the audience in front of the TV, "This kind of game is actually suitable for live watching, do you want to hear the reason?" ”

"Haha...... We have to admit that there is nothing exciting about playing like this on both sides, but the more they are stubborn and anxious, the more immersive the atmosphere will be, and over time, the fans will accumulate a lot of emotions. ”

"When you score again, it explodes."

"I'm right above the CalderΓ³n Stadium and I can clearly notice the throbbing of the Atletico fans' phalanx, so I can guess what someone will look like if they score."

"Let's see who it is!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

'Chelsea scored! Kante is out! During this time, he has improved significantly at Chelsea, and his ability at his feet has improved a lot! ”

"Pass it to Hazard! Eden Hazard, shoot!! ”

"Nice incut! The perfect winger-type goal!! ”

"Two to one! Chelsea are leading again and the king of the ball is stepping up!! Atletico Madrid are in trouble, can they still equalize this time?! ”

"Remember what I just told you about? Although Atletico didn't score, after Chelsea scored, I still felt the atmosphere of an earthquake on the spot, knowing that they were the visitors! ”

"I didn't dare take off my own noise-cancelling headphones, I was afraid I wouldn't hear anything, hahaha."

Liu Peng's commentary style is still relatively neutral, and he has enough respect for those Blues fans when Chelsea score.

"Atletico Madrid is ready to make a substitution, Torres has to replace Ángel Correa, who is not in good form today! It was a counterpoint substitution and a very wise decision. ”

"The first substitution of this game appeared, when will Chen Yufeng be replaced? As we all know, his recent form has not been great, and he has barely finished the whole game. ”

"As soon as he leaves, I don't think Atletico can equalize or even overtake, and I guess Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is the same, he is waiting, waiting for Chen Yufeng to go down and directly arrange an iron bucket to defend."

"Let's see if he can get his wish."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Just now this ball is obviously Azpilicueta can't keep up with Chen Yufeng, let's take a look at the replay, when Chen Yufeng went to the ribs, he already knew that he couldn't prevent it, and deliberately reached out and pulled."

'Luckily, I just gave a free-kick and didn't give a penalty. Nearly enough, Atletico will have a good chance to equalise. This free kick is considered a short corner, the distance between the football and the goal is long, the angle is small, and it must be passed. ”

"Let's take a look at the playback of another shot......" Liu Peng's words had just fallen, and the director suddenly cut off the replayed animation and transferred it to the green field.

When he first saw the green field, Liu Peng was stunned, and he thought that his friends in the broadcast team had made a mistake and adjusted the wrong picture.

But then he reacted that there was some key information!

He quickly cast his eyes on the pitch, which must have been the quickest way to pick up information.

The monitors and broadcasters placed in front of the director must not have any delay with the actual situation, even if they are broadcast live to the audience, they will not be able to explain it.

Otherwise, the picture presented is that the bull's head is not in the horse's mouth.

β€œYeah……!!!” Before Liu Peng could fully raise his head, he heard the audience shouting, and turned his head to see that it was an Atletico Madrid fan in red.

What's the situation?

He threw himself off the pitch with a confused face, judging from the picture of a group of Chelsea players standing helplessly on the spot, judging from the fact that a group of Atletico Madrid players rushed to the corner flag area on the sidelines, this is Atletico Madrid's goal?!

"The ball is in!! Beautiful goal!! Atletico equalised! Let's wait for the replay! Liu Peng wasn't sure who scored the goal, so he could only roar first to relieve his embarrassment.

The broadcast team couldn't keep up, so they could only release the pictures of the players celebrating at this time to deal with the audience, and they must be making a replay urgently.

Soon, the replay footage came out.

Chen Yufeng and Griezmann stood in front of the football, discussed a few times, and waited for the referee's whistle.

"Beep!"

As the referee's whistle sounded, Chen Yufeng flicked the ball, and Griezmann, who was standing closer to the outside, stopped the ball with the soles of his feet and flashed a larger angle of shot.

"Bang !!" Chen Yufeng kicked the full moon scimitar straight into the far corner of the goal, and the ball slashed through Courtois's stretched body to the extreme, and was swept into the far corner of the goal.

"Oh ......!! See the free kick again and score directly! Chen Yufeng's archery skills are really getting more and more exquisite! ”

"We all know that the centre is generally synonymous with archery and the winger is synonymous with dribbling. Players in these two positions have extremely strong individual strengths and characteristics. ”

"But now, the Champions League goalscorer is Chen Yufeng, the La Liga goalscorer is Chen Yufeng, and he is also the king of the two events, how should we define what kind of player Chen Yufeng is?"

"Two to two! Congratulations to Atletico! Chen Yufeng scored 7 goals in these two games! It's a great deal for your money! ”

"If you know that Chen Yufeng is so easy to use, there must be a club that wants to come up with a high price of 200 million!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Okay, Chen Yufeng left with honor, Simeone replaced Gabi to strengthen control of the midfield, and Torres was in front with a single arrow."

'With fifteen minutes left, I think Simeone will put Antoine Griezmann and Torres in the centre, restarting the four-four-two.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Griezmann! The seventh corner of the day! Penalty to the outside! ”

"Godin's header! Hit Kante on the knee! Torres stabbed! ”

"This ball...... The goal was scored! The soccer ball is refracted and flies into the net!! ”

"Three to two! Atletico took the lead in the final moments! Fernando Torres scored the winner! ”

"What a blessing!! I was mentally prepared for a draw, and the final moment came! ”

"The fans at the Estadio CalderΓ³n did not come in vain today! Twice down, twice equalised! It's so beautiful!! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

On the pitch, Torres spread his arms like a roc spreading his wings, laughing wildly and rushing towards Simeone on the sidelines.

"Ness!!" Chen Yufeng also sat up from the bench at this moment, waved his right hand excitedly, and then was grabbed by Simeone and hugged him tightly.

"Thank you two, without you two, there would be no victory!" Simeone patted Chen on the shoulder, quickly turned around and hugged Torres, who had come to the dugout to celebrate with him.

He said the same thing to both of them.

"Of course, the feeling of lore is really cool!"

Torres was still laughing, "Normally, we keep the lower limit, and Chen Yufeng controls the ceiling and gives the opponent the final blow. But today, he single-handedly kept the floor for Atletico, and I came to give the opponent the final blow! ”

"I feel like I'm Chen Yufeng."

"Can you have some ambition?" There were a lot of people chasing after them, and after hearing what Torres said, they didn't like it: "Scored such a crucial goal, you should at least be me Godin, we are at the same level, understand?" ”

Torres: "......"

"Hahaha." Chen Yufeng laughed on the side.

He breathed a sigh of relief, looking at his teammates joking at each other in front of him, and at the cheering fans in the distance, and then thinking about the victory to come...... Well, it's a really good feeling.

Perhaps, that's some of the sheer joy that football brings.

"Beep! Beep! Beep β€”β€”! ”

Under the remorseful gaze of the Chelsea players, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game shortly after.

Atletico thrashed Chelsea 3-2 to bring the Champions League group to six.

Qualification, it should be relatively stable.
