I am the king of football

Chapter 231 Iron-Blooded Blue Army
"Lampard, the captain and free-kick master of the Blues, is injured in this round of the league. They don't have many free-kick masters on the field in this game."

Oscar, Ramirez and Mata stood in front of the ball. Looking at this scene, Zhan Jun was moved. It was a pity that Lampard missed the red and blue battle due to injury.

However, a direct attack such as a free kick sometimes depends on the player's condition.

"Shhh!!!"

The whistle sounded, and without waiting for Zhan Jun to say anything, all three players on the court started moving.

"Ramirez stepped over the ball first. Among the three players, Oscar had a good long-range shot. He quickly ran towards the ball. Oh, he also stepped over the ball, and his fake move shook the Manchester United wall!"

"Oh!"

The next second, when everyone's attention was drawn to Oscar, Mata, who was at the end of the line, appeared in front of the ball. He swung his thigh and kicked the bottom part of the ball.

"Shu~"

The ball flew into the air and drew a beautiful arc. The quality of Mata's shot was amazing. When De Gea saw the ball flying towards him from above the wall of people, he could only pounce in one direction based on his intuition.

"It's in! The ball went into the goal along the left post. De Gea got the direction right but still couldn't touch the ball."

"boom!"

As the ball hit the net cleanly, Stamford Bridge finally erupted in loud cheers, and the Blues fans, who had been suppressed for half a day, began to celebrate wildly.

On the field, Mata, who scored the goal, became the team's hero. He was surrounded by his teammates and came to the corner flag area, baring his white teeth and waving at his fans.

"Mata, Mata, I didn't expect that this winger has such an excellent free kick technique. What a beautiful goal!"

Zhan Jun was also surprised by the player's free kick. According to the replay, this shot could really be said to be in an absolute blind spot. Even with De Gea's top-notch arm span and keen intuition, he couldn't touch the ball.

With the free kick scored, the score on the field was changed to 1-2. Although there was little time left in the first half of the game, the Chelsea team's confidence had become even stronger.

"From the first goal to the second goal, the Blues team did not show any signs of panic. Now it seems that the mentality of this Blues team is really very tenacious. Their mental outlook makes any opponent have to respect them."

Zhan Jun's words were full of admiration. Di Matteo took over halfway and led the team to win the Champions League. In addition to the fact that this coach did quickly resolve the conflicts within the team, the team's tenacious spirit was also indispensable.

Nothing can defeat the iron-blooded Blues. This is the spiritual imprint that Mourinho laid for Chelsea during his time. Although one batch of players after another came and went, the veterans who stayed in the team still continued these spirits.

When the game resumed, there were only two minutes left in the first half. It was naturally difficult to complete any high-quality offensive coordination in such a short time. Manchester United chose the simplest and most direct offensive tactic of opening up space in the midfield and then passing the ball to the forward.

Although Qin Hu unloaded the ball perfectly, unfortunately the Blues' defense, which was already fully energetic, did not give him a chance to shoot. Ramires and David Luiz rushed over and pressed together, so Qin Hu had to pass the ball to Van Persie on the right.

Van Persie didn't get anything good from receiving the ball. He adjusted himself for a moment and was about to shoot, but he watched Mikel shovel the ball out from in front of him. "Shhh!!!"

"The ball was intercepted directly, and the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. 1-2, the home team Chelsea temporarily fell behind by one goal at home. There was no huge gap between the two teams, and the suspense of this game was far from over."

With the end of Zhan Jun's commentary, the first half of the game came to an end. The players of both teams were exhausted, and without any communication between the two sides, they followed their respective coaches and left the stadium.

The Chelsea fans in the stands began to sing continuously to pass the half-time. During the whole process, the blue flags never stopped flying over Stamford Bridge.

"We played well in the first half, but we didn't do enough in terms of key marking."

Entering the locker room, Ferguson didn't need to say much. When he took a pen and drew a big circle on Hazard's name, the defensive players who had been dribbled past by this kid before the end of the first half all lowered their heads in shame.

"I know it's hard to defend Hazard, but don't give him too many chances. Fouling is an acceptable tactic. Apart from that, don't let me see the defensive scenes like children queuing up for candy! Coordination! Coordination, understand?"

"Understood, Boss!"

Those who can play for Manchester United are not rookies. The main reason for the failed defense just now was that everyone was a little too excited and failed to react. Several veterans of the team have already had ideas about how to limit Hazard in the second half.

"There's nothing else to say, just focus on your game. Our opponents are strong, but I think we are too. No matter how the second half goes, don't let me see anyone give up on the court!"

"understand!"

A worthy opponent meets a talented general, this is the core theme of this red and blue battle. When the two teams reappeared on the court in the second half, the two teams continued to present the fans with a wonderful duel after a whistle.

"The two teams showed their top-notch strength in the game, with the ball moving across the field at a rapid speed!"

Zhan Jun's voice was full of passion from the beginning of the second half. He didn't expect that the second half of the game would be even more exciting than the first half.

If the first half of the game was mainly a performance by Manchester United, then the Blues finally found their rhythm after a halftime adjustment.

They firmly controlled the ball through the midfield layout and did not lose out in the head-on confrontation with the Red Devils, which naturally created quite a lot of opportunities.

In the 57th minute of the game, when Oscar received a cross pass from Ramires who was dribbling towards Carrick's defense, his lob fooled all of Manchester United's defenders.

"Torres! He successfully beat the offside trap and rushed directly into the penalty area to take the ball. He shot lightly and the ball went in! Beautiful! In the 57th minute of the game, Chelsea equalized the score!"

At this point, the match was back to the starting line, and the resilience shown by the Blues dealt a considerable blow to Manchester United's morale.
