I started with Torres, to revive German football

Chapter 65 The Legend of the Blue Army Destroyed by Zhao Jinge

For Manchester City, team captain Kompany saw the change in Chelsea's morale after Diego Costa's goal.

Knowing that he was not good, he immediately gathered the Manchester City players to his side.

Before the re-kick-off, I warned my teammates not to panic in the next game. In the final stage of the first half, we must first withstand Chelsea's counterattack.

"Fernandinho, you must keep an eye on Hazard! Don't worry about William! If it doesn't work, foul it. I don't want to see Hazard appearing in front of me easily again!"

"William and Ramirez to our defense!"

Kompany stared into Fernandinho's eyes until Fernandinho nodded in agreement before averting his gaze.

"Yaya, don't plug in the next few minutes, you and De Bruyne must firmly cut off the connection between Cesc Fabregas and the Chelsea players in the frontcourt!"

Yaya Toure looked at the serious captain, and immediately nodded in agreement, dispelling the thoughts that kept coming up in his heart.

The serious Kompany is definitely the backbone of the Manchester City team!

After Zhao Jinge re-kicked off, only Sterling and David Silva came forward with him to Chelsea's half to intercept the frontcourt.

The other Manchester City players maintained a tight formation, shrinking in several halves, ready to fight.

Prepare to pull out all the stops and drag out the last stretch of the first half!

Of course, Chelsea has also made targeted changes. Since you want to suppress Cesc Fabregas so much, let him become a target to attract Manchester City's attention.

Cesc Fabregas no longer undertakes Chelsea's organizational work, and stays exclusively in the backcourt, only responsible for Chelsea's backcourt.

After receiving the ball, Fabregas did not hesitate, and directly used his precise long pass to cross the interception of the Manchester City midfielder and send it to the feet of the Chelsea players in the frontcourt.

After Hazard and William retracted, they took up the position of the front midfielder, responsible for connecting Chelsea's risk and midfield.

Mourinho used Hazard and William as the metronome of Chelsea's frontcourt, putting the work of organizing, advancing, passing, and even finishing on Hazard.

Flexible and fast, delicate technique, strong ability to pass threatening balls, and good shooting skills, these characteristics make Hazard almost omnipotent in the position of the front midfielder.

Just like Zhao Jinge relied on his personal ability in the first half to tear apart Chelsea's defense by himself.

When Hazard faced Fernandinho's defense, although he was sometimes forced to be a little embarrassed.

But he still relied on his excellent breakthrough and ball control ability to gradually open a wound in Manchester City's midfield defense.

William and Ramirez also followed Hazard's defensive gap and kept attacking Manchester City's defense. Fernandinho alone, how could it be possible to defend the breakthrough of three people.

In addition, William and Hazard were able to change positions frequently between the wing and the center to open up space and expand the gap in Manchester City's defense. Kompany also had to step forward to defend

At the critical moment, Yaya Toure, who went to suppress Cesc Fabregas, returned to the position of the midfielder, and together with Fernandinho, he supported Chelsea's offensive pressure.

When Fabregas saw Yaya Toure retreating and was about to go forward, he was entangled by David Silva alone, and De Bruyne also rushed back to the backcourt to respond.

Although in a hurry, Manchester City still kept the real threat out of their own hinterland.

The first half of the game has entered the stoppage time stage, and Manchester City's players dare not relax for a moment, for fear of losing the ball again at the last moment of the first half.

Chelsea seized the only opportunity to carry out the last wave of counterattack.

Hazard once again took the ball in the middle of Manchester City's half. He used a fake move to pass Zhao Jinge who was returning to defense, but he did not continue to break forward as before, and sent a cross after hitting the bottom line.

Instead, he stopped the ball suddenly, and after attracting Fernandinho's attention, he decisively pushed the ball straight behind Manchester City's defense line, and continued to rush forward!

William in the middle has been observing Hazard's movements. He started in time and did not miss this excellent opportunity to advance.

William runs very fast without the ball, and Hazard's through ball gives a good weight, which just allows him to catch up with the football in the most comfortable position.

William's dribbling speed was only a little slower than when he was running without the ball. Relying on his speed, after passing the defense line of Manchester City's full-back Sagna, William dribbled the ball directly into Manchester City's penalty area.

Then he suddenly swept the ball towards the penalty spot in Manchester City's penalty area.

Diego Costa took Kompany away at the back point. At this time, Demichelis was still in the position where William passed the ball, and he had not waited for Demichelis to turn around.

A figure had already taken the lead and chose to shoot near Manchester City's penalty spot.

Azar, the magic soldier descends from heaven!

With such a short distance and another stab shot towards the near corner of the goal, Demichelis' heart sank. He had no time to turn around and block it now, so he could only watch the football fly towards the goal.

Just when all the Chelsea fans at the scene thought they could return to the locker room with a draw.

Joe Hart in front of the Manchester City goal jumped forward and rushed towards the near corner of the goal where the football was about to roll.

His arm stretched out straight, and before the football got into the near corner of the goal, he used his fingers stretched to the limit to rub lightly, changing the direction of the football.

Joe Hart's quick reflexes and world-class goal-line ability kept Manchester City's goal clean.

Although we always talk about "if there is love in the sky, the sky will grow old when you meet Hartmont."

But as one of England's best local goalkeepers in the past 30 years, Joe Hart's goal line and reaction ability are really outstanding.

After all, apart from occasional mistakes in positioning, if you want to break through his goal, you really have to hit a fairy ball.

"William pass to the penalty spot, Eden Hazard, poke! Joe Hart!"

"Joe Hart made Hazard's poke shot from close at hand. It seems that Joe Hart is in excellent form today. This is a world-class save!"

Seeing Joe Hart's wonderful performance, Lineker was amazed!Next year's European Cup, it seems that England's national gate is still Joe Hart!

The Chelsea fans booed dissatisfiedly. Mourinho lowered his hands that were about to be raised, and looked coldly at the direction of Manchester City's goal, then turned and walked into the player tunnel.

The first half of the game is over, and the players of both sides have returned to the locker room.

Compared with the Manchester City players who made a false alarm and encouraged each other, Chelsea seemed a little unwilling.

As the captain of the team, Terry was the last Chelsea player to enter the dressing room.

The atmosphere in the locker room was very dignified, and Mourinho's cold eyes had been locked on him since he pushed the door in.

Of course he could sense Mourinho's dissatisfaction with him, after all, his performance in the first half was extremely bad.

"John, can you still play in the second half?!"

Mourinho's voice seemed to be suppressing something, Terry looked up at Mourinho:
"Of course, Boss!"

"Are you sure you don't need me to replace you now?"

Mourinho did not seem satisfied with Terry's answer.

"I can last at least 15 minutes, 15 minutes with all my strength! Then you can replace me!"

Terry looked at Mourinho without fear and gave his bottom line.

Neither of them continued to speak. The former master and apprentice looked at each other in silence, and the atmosphere in Chelsea's dressing room gradually deteriorated.

In the end, Mourinho snorted coldly, accepting Terry's opinion.

There is nothing to say about the tactical arrangement. Chelsea's performance before the end was very good. If Joe Hart hadn't suddenly exploded, maybe the situation would have been different.

With excellent results achieved, Mourinho certainly would not risk changing the team's offensive tactics, but only gave the order to hand the ball to Hazard.

After ordering the Chelsea players to replenish their strength and take a good rest, Chelsea's dressing room fell into dead silence again.

Mourinho's high-handed rule has caused dissatisfaction among Chelsea players, but due to past achievements, no one dares to openly oppose Mourinho's order!
On Manchester City's side, because they suffered a big loss before the end of the game, of course they have to make corresponding changes at this time.

Guardiola expects that when the second half begins, Chelsea will take advantage of the opportunity of physical recovery and strike while the iron is hot to launch a counterattack.

Now is the time for Chelsea to take off. Of course, we must avoid its edge. Guardiola's core essence in the second half is one word: procrastination!

Chelsea, with many veteran players, is definitely inferior to the young and energetic Manchester City in terms of physical consumption, and the backcourt directly contracted in the second half.

The midfielder used his top ball control ability to directly play pass control with Chelsea in the center circle, further consuming Chelsea's physical strength and treating them like dogs!

It would be better if Chelsea didn't come to grab it. Anyway, Manchester City is leading the score now and Chelsea is not in a hurry, so why should I panic.

As for the tactics that are too conservative, they will be criticized by fans and the media after the game, Guardiola doesn't care at all, it's just a trivial matter.

As long as he can win this game, how can Guardiola, who was scolded bloody in Bayern Munich, care about these messy rumors? !
Sterling and Zhao Jinge also have to return to the center line to participate in the midfielder's dog-walking tactics. Both of them have superb skills at their feet. It is really suitable to add two more passing points for the midfielder. up.

After a short intermission, players from both sides returned to the court, and they changed sides to fight again.

Chelsea won the ball. After the game restarted, Chelsea continued to use the tactics of the first half and continued to attack Manchester City's half.

However, after the intermission adjustment, Manchester City faced the frontcourt attack group composed of Hazard, William, Ramirez and Diego Costa, and there was no confusion in the first half.

Zhao Jinge and Sterling harassed Cesc Fabregas and Matic who played in the backcourt of Chelsea.

Yaya Toure and Fernandinho sit in the middle, and behind him is Kompany who is ready to defend at any time.

After retracting, De Bruyne and David Silva are responsible for marking Ramirez and William.

Manchester City's midfield began to function in an orderly manner.

At the end of the first half, Manchester City's chaos was because they did not recover the offensive personnel in the frontcourt, thinking that Fernandinho alone could star Hazard to death!
Now it seems like a delusion!

If Yaya Toure hadn't reacted later and took De Bruyne back, the current situation might really have taken a turn for the worse.

And now Manchester City, which is in charge of dragging the word, has no plan to press out and attack at all. The attack depends entirely on the performance of Zhao Jinge and Sterling.

Just when Mourinho on the sidelines yelled at Guardiola's shameless tactics.

Ramirez made a mistake, his pass was too fast, it hit William who was about to catch the ball, and bounced out.

Seeing the football flying in front of him, De Bruyne didn't have time to think about it, and directly handed the ball to David Silva, who was closer to the frontcourt.

Zhao Jinge, who was not far in front of David Silva, realized that the opportunity to counterattack had come, and quickly called Sterling, who was not far away from him, to charge forward together.

David Silva raced the ball into Chelsea's half, facing Hazard who was on his heels and couldn't get rid of him.

David Silva passed the ball to Zhao Jinge, who was already close to Chelsea's danger zone.

Seeing the transfer of the ball, Matic immediately left Sterling beside him and rushed towards Zhao Jinge, even if it was a foul, he had to break the ball!

Zhao Jinge continued to move forward with the ball. The reminder from his teammates made him aware of the arrival of Matic and saw the Serbian rushing in front of him.

Zhao Jinge turned his head to look at Sterling's position, kicked the ball out, and Matic, who rushed over to intercept, had no time to think, and forcibly prepared to turn around and chase the ball, but under the influence of inertia, it was too late.

On the contrary, after Zhao Jinge kicked the ball again, he changed direction and caught up with the football. The pass just now was just a cover. He kicked the ball with strength and did not kick the ball too far.

After successfully passing Matic, the most difficult opponent, Zhao Jinge was about to break into Chelsea's penalty area with the ball.

Standing between him and the goal are those two familiar opponents, Chelsea's old captain Terry and goalkeeper Begovic.

Accelerate, accelerate again, with the most violent speed, Zhao Jinge headed towards Chelsea's goal without hesitation.

Chelsea's other centre-back, Gary Cahill, is marking Sterling, the full-back Azpilicueta is too far away, and Ivanovic, who is closer, has to watch David Scheer watt.

It was another one-on-one duel. Terry sank down, ready to break the ball the moment Zhao Jinge approached him. Begovic behind him had already sealed the near corner of the goal.

It was getting closer, and it was getting closer. When Zhao Jinge came in front of Terry, the 35-year-old veteran stepped forward decisively to tackle!
The moment he stepped forward to the ground, Terry regretted it. His outstretched right leg did not shovel the football, and his outstretched arm did not stop Zhao Jinge's passing figure.
