Just as Li Lei and other Chelsea players turned back, Giffel quickly threw the ball in his hand.

This time, Giffel's quick kick completely caught the Chelsea players' flaws.

Just as Li Lei was about to intercept, Sobotka kicked the ball across the center line with a strong kick.

At this time, Chelsea's defense was in chaos. This time Schalke 04's surprise attack made the whole team run wild.

Lampard and Mikel, two midfielders, had to deal with Obasi who quickly inserted.

This made the middle road suddenly open, and other Schalke players also advanced and began to counterattack Chelsea's position. At this moment, Li Lei could only helplessly watch the ball fly across the center line. He was just proud of giving Schalke 04 a blow!

In the blink of an eye, the situation on the field was reversed.

Under Schalke 04's quick counterattack, Chelsea's defense fell into tension. Fortunately, Captain Terry remained calm and adjusted the defensive formation in time.

When Obasi quickly entered the penalty area with the ball, Terry ordered Ivanovic and Luis to form a double team to trap Obasi in the corner.

Obasi was forced to retreat and pass the ball back to Huntelaar.

But Terry was prepared and found the right opportunity to block the ball himself. Huntelaar's shot was shoveled out of the bottom line.

The corner kick was taken by Cech.

Only 15 minutes after the start, the game was extremely exciting and intense. The two sides went back and forth, constantly attacking and counterattacking.

Keane and Jones, the commentators in the Sky Sports live broadcast room, were also very satisfied with the intensity of the game.

"This is a evenly matched contest, with both sides being equally matched."

"The players were playing enthusiastically, the court was full of confrontation and passion, it was so exciting!"

There were so many wonderful clips in the first 15 minutes, it was overwhelming."

"First, Chelsea launched a crazy attack, and then Schalke completed a swift counterattack with the help of the goalkeeper and defender."

"This game is full of rhythm, it really makes people's blood boil.!"

"If the whole game is like this, the players will definitely have to pay a lot of physical effort."

"However, as spectators, we can enjoy a wonderful battle with a huge difference in victory and defeat and full of surprises! Let's continue to watch the game, this game is absolutely exciting and hard to tell!"

When the time came to the 37th minute, Li Lei received a backcourt pass from his teammate Ivanovic and began to break through to the opponent's half from near the center line.

He first shook off midfielder Sane at an astonishing speed, and then went straight to the penalty area.

At the critical moment, Uchida Atsuto stepped forward to fight, trying to stop Li Lei's breakthrough.

Facing Uchida Atsuto's defense, Li Lei directly changed his line and turned horizontally with the ball to the middle.

Just when Uchida Atsuto was about to be thrown off, he chose the sleeve technique and grabbed Li Lei's jersey tightly.

After being grabbed by Uchida Atsuto, Li Lei immediately reacted. He turned around and pushed Uchida to the ground directly, expressing strong dissatisfaction.

Seeing the conflict between the two sides, the referee quickly stepped forward to persuade them. Li Lei also began to put pressure on the referee at this time, loudly protesting Uchida's foul behavior.

"Mr. Referee, it was obviously Uchida who pulled my jersey first! If he hadn't held me back, I would have gone straight in."

"You saw his blatant violation, and he must be punished!"

Li Lei's Chelsea teammates also surrounded him to put pressure on him. They thought it was an obvious foul, and Uchida's pulling of his jersey had seriously affected Li Lei's attack.

As a referee, he had the responsibility to make a fair judgment and give Uchida a red card.

When Li Lei was emotionally scolding the referee, captain Terry hurried forward to persuade him and pulled him away to prevent the situation from escalating further.

Terry patted Li Lei on the shoulder and said:" Young man, don't be impulsive. Look, the referee is going to warn you. We are not at a disadvantage in this matter. Calm down.!"

Li Lei then realized his mistake and hurried to explain to Terry:"Captain, I was just angry for a moment. But I know what to do, don't worry!"

In the end, the referee gave Uchida a yellow card and awarded Chelsea a free kick.

Lampard ran over and asked Terry:"Captain, what did you say to Li Lei? Why did he calm down?" Terry smiled and said:"I didn't say anything, just told him not to get too excited. Young people sometimes can't control their emotions and need their teammates to remind them."

"Captain! Brother, let me take this free kick, I created it!"At this time, Li Lei came to them and said to Terry and Lampard.

Terry and Lampard exchanged glances and saw each other's meaning - it's better not to let Li Lei take the free kick now, as his emotions have not yet completely calmed down.

So Terry called Hazard:" Hazard, let's use Plan B!"

Hazard walked out of the penalty area after receiving the instructions.:"Captain, I understand what you mean!"

"Okay, I'll let you take the penalty kick!" Terry said affirmatively.

"Yeah!"

The current position on the field is that Li Lei is on the right side of the ball, Terry is on the left side of the ball, Lampard is on the left side of the ball, and Hazard is not far to the right. The other Chelsea players and Schalke 04 players are all concentrated in the penalty area.

Terry ran past the ball after a run-up. This was obviously a feint and did not attract the attention of the Schalke 04 players.

Following closely behind was Li Lei. His running was more like he was going to take the penalty. The two people's chain feints perfectly confused each other.

Just when everyone thought Li Lei would play, Lampard made a clever touch and passed the ball to the real executor Hazard.

Li Lei's feint even fooled his own people. Everyone in the penalty area jumped up to compete for the header.

After receiving the ball, Hazard adjusted the angle calmly and observed the opponent's goalkeeper and defensive formation.

He found the right time to shoot, and the ball changed its line and flew to the far corner. Giffel jumped up, but unfortunately his fingertips did not touch it and the ball went into the net.!

"GOOOOOOOOOAL!"

As Hazard scored a free kick, the commentator Keane's excited celebration echoed throughout the commentary booth

"Chelsea used a wonderful free kick and opened the situation through cooperation, breaking Schalke 04's goal 1:0!"

"This free kick was so well coordinated that even Li Lei, the person involved, was fooled by his teammates."
