John Terry and Carvalho have been the most consistent centre-back duo in the Premier League over the past few seasons. Since Carvalho's move to Chelsea from Champions League winners Porto in the summer of 2004, he has formed a regular centre-back partnership with John Terry.

The pair helped Chelsea win the title in 2004-2005, when they conceded just 15 goals! Such a small number of goals conceded speaks to the quality of these two men.

The following 2005-2006 season, Chelsea successfully defended their league title, conceding just 22 goals in the entire league, remaining the fewest in the Premier League.

In the 2006-2007 season, although Chelsea failed to win the title, they conceded the fewest 24 goals in the league.

Last season, 2007-2008, Chelsea no longer conceded the fewest goals in the league, but the 26 goals conceded was also the second-fewest in the league. It's still very stable.

Even after 33 league games without the season being played, Chelsea remain the team that has conceded the fewest goals in the league, conceding just 20 goals so far.

With such a two-man defense, there are too many world-class shooters who have been defeated in front of them.

They were so accommodating that they didn't need any eye contact to know what to do.

Terry rushed straight to glory.

"Two to two! Now it's two to two! ”

Manchester City has to play defensive counter-attacks, and Glory and Robinho have always stayed in the front.

The Glory position has to be slightly further back, this is Benitez's tactical arrangement, because the Glory is fast, he needs more space, so let him go a little deeper, and he is fast, even if the sprint distance is a little longer.

It's Robinho, if he is further behind than Glory, then it is estimated that after Glory rushes up, Robinho will never want to catch up again...... When the time comes, Glory will fall into the disadvantage of being outnumbered.

Benitez arranges the placement of the two people, which may not seem necessary, but in fact it means a lot.

When Glory rushed to Deco, Robinho rushed forward, he didn't care if Glory could grab the ball or not, it wasn't his responsibility, he just had to run.

This is also what Benitez sued him.

Only by starting first can he ensure that he will finally kill in front of the opponent's goal with Rongguang, and if Rongguang wants to pass the ball, he can receive the pass.

Now, Robinho is running wildly, running desperately so that he can barely keep up with the speed of glory, otherwise......

Now up front, it's the duel between Glory and Robinho, two Manchester City players, and Chelsea's two centre-backs.

※※※

Terry rushed towards Glory, and Carvalho didn't follow him, but leaned out a little bit, stuck in the passing path of Glory and Robinho.

In this attack, only Robinho's speed can barely keep up with the glory of the whole Manchester City team, and Berbatov has been thrown farther and farther away.

So you just need to guard against Robinho.

Although the situation looked critical, Carvalho did not panic, he had already made a decision in his head and had a defensive plan. He believes that as long as he and Terry do not make mistakes and follow this plan, they will definitely be able to resolve this crisis.

And he believed Terry knew about the plan as well.

Because it's the experience they've accumulated in countless two-on-two times.

So Terry rushed to glory first.

Now Carvalho has one eye on Robinho, and the other eye is on glory.

He saw Terry greet him, and then meet Glory.

Glory may pass the ball, but maybe not, maybe he will pass Terry and pass the ball to Robinho when he knows he is close to him, so that Robinho will be unmarked.

Carvalho thought so, and at the same time, he glanced at Robinho and saw that the Brazilian was on the verge of running to a line with him......

This is the time!

Carvalho rushed forward and ran to glory!

If Glory wants to pass the ball at this time, then Robinho is offside!

If she doesn't pass the ball, she will quickly fall into the encirclement of herself and Terry!

That's the defensive plan for Carvalho and Terry.

But just as he rushed towards Terry, he saw Glory in front of Terry kicking the ball with his left foot, was this to pass?

John Terry wasn't going to cut off the ball directly, his task was to interfere with him, force him to slow down, or let him pass the ball, and as soon as he passed the ball to Robinho, City's attack was over, and he was confident that his partner Carvalho would be offside at the right time.

Sure enough, he saw Glory's left foot kicking the ball, which meant to pass the ball, and he raised his hands and stood still, signaling that he had no fouls. If Rongguang passes the ball and is knocked to the ground by himself, then he can't award a free kick to the opponent.

But at this time, he saw that Rongguang's right foot suddenly stretched out, blocking the path of the football!

The soccer ball, which had been plucked by his left foot, just like that, crashed into it, changed direction, and rolled forward......

At the same time, Glory twisted his body slightly, and without making any physical contact with Terry who was in front of him, he wiped past him......

Carvalho was still proud of his success in creating an offside position when he saw Glory suddenly burrow past Terry with a football.

He also subconsciously shoveled towards glory...... Soccer ball at your feet.

But Glory's reaction was faster than his subconscious!

Glory gently flicked the football to the left with his right foot, and then stretched out his left foot to block the football, so as to avoid Carvalho's tackle, and still let the football remain in his control!

At the same time, Glory's body twisted again, and there was a bypass Carvalho's side!

"Croquettes! Twice! Mortenson's eyes widened, and it was the instinct of an experienced narrator to still be able to yell at this time......

Because Rongguang's two croquettes were too tightly connected, he didn't shout "croquettes" twice in a row. It wasn't until Carvalho had passed away from the glory that he reacted and realized what a remarkable and beautiful thing it was!

He even hoped that Glory would eventually score football, otherwise wouldn't such a beautiful person be wasted? You can't be in the goal highlights so often that you can be appreciated by more people......

Like Ronaldo's breakthrough in extra-time in the semi-finals of the World Cup in France in '98, he dribbled forward at high speed from the centre circle and past two Dutch defenders all the way, only to be disrupted by Davies in the box and not score. So that beautiful breakthrough, many people don't know......

However, this beautiful breakthrough of Glory also seems to have signs of death, because Mortenson saw Ballack after admiring Glory's excellence.

This former teammate of Rongguang has already returned to the penalty area, and when everyone didn't notice, he took advantage of Rongguang's two consecutive croquettes and shoveled the football when he couldn't catch it!

"Barak!!"

Mortenson's voice trembled, with a hint of horror. At this time, he had completely substituted himself into Glory, and he didn't want to see Glory's beautiful attack ruined at the last moment......

※※※

Ballack's plan seemed to be right until now, and he went straight into the box without anyone noticing.

Glory was busy entangling with Mikel, Terry, and Carvalho, and his attention was all on these three people, and he would never have thought that he would meet him after breaking through Carvalho.

At this time, killing him by surprise can stop him!

If he didn't go back to the box quickly at first, but bravely rushed up...... That does seem courageous, but it's even more stupid. He's sure to get swept away from the glory sooner than Mikel and then just stand there as a spectator and watch his team end up losing the game because of that one......

And now, he has a chance to change that and become a ...... to save the team Hero!

He decisively shoveled towards the glory, and the football at his feet, without hesitation, without the slightest intention of showing mercy at his feet!

Dealing with a person like Rongguang, the slightest hesitation and sympathy may make him die without a place to be buried!

Barak is well aware of this.

In the Bundesliga, he first became an opponent with Rongguang for two years, and then a teammate with Rongguang for three years, and he couldn't know Rongguang better.

He believed that Glory would never have imagined his sudden appearance, and therefore could not react to it.

Besides, even if he saw that he was useless, a series of fried croquettes had exhausted his energy, and inertia would make his body unable to make any movements at all. The only thing he could do was to take a fall and see if he could cheat a penalty.

But with Balak's understanding of Rongguang, he knows that Rongguang will not do this kind of thing, as long as he tackles the ball first, he doesn't have to worry about being fouled!

※※※

"Barak! He showed up at the most critical time, and in the most critical place, and then shoveled towards the football! ”

At Mortensen's exclamation, all eyes were on the penalty spot, focused on Ballack and Glory.

City's players' eyes widened in horror as if they had seen Glory's beautiful and resolute breakthrough stopped by Ballack.

The panicked Chelsea fans, who had been holding their heads in their hands, raised their hands and were ready to cheer for Ballack's defence.

Hiddink stood on the sidelines, he didn't know when he clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into the flesh of his palm, but he didn't realize it.

Benitez also stood up from his seat, grabbing the back of the seat in the dugout with one hand, and he grabbed it so hard that his knuckles were white.

※※※

Barak's shovel to glory came immediately after Carvalho passed it, so it was actually a momentary event, but in the eyes of many people, it seemed like a century had passed.

During this long period of time, all the movements are broken down into extremely slow steps.

With his head down, as if he didn't see Ballack's glory at all, he stretched out his left foot, but it wasn't a shot, it wasn't a kick, it wasn't a casual kick.

With the tip of his left foot, he swept the tip of the grass on the turf, and then went down to the bottom of the turf, and lined up the turf that was blocking the front of him on both sides, and continued down, turning over the turf.

It wasn't until his left foot was fully under the ball that he stopped dipping his pitch.

Then bounce back and lift your toes up while raising your knees.

But instead of kicking the ball up, his left foot is firmly under the instep of the ball, and he pads the ball!

Just as Glory had just left the ground with the ball with his left foot, Ballack's tackle was wrapped in broken grass and dirt, and rushed over against the turf.

He didn't play football, but the toes of his shoes were hung on the glorious spikes!
