Chapter Seventy-Four: Kill Paris Saint-Germain before the Christmas schedule
Although the referee's whistle has not yet sounded in Highbury, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Arsenal has gone in a big way. After Lao Lei once again blocked Arsenal's must-score goal on the goal line, the last breath in the hearts of the Arsenal players dissipated. With the final minutes remaining, Arsenal were unable to make a final assault on Chelsea's defence. Lao Lei's goal-line rescue gave them a big blow on the mental level, and no one could be interrupted when they were one step away from success.
"Toot!!" Four minutes after stoppage time, the referee on duty blew the whistle for the official end of the game. The Arsenal players were undoubtedly lonely for the result, and after this game, instead of seizing the distance and closing the distance between them and Chelsea, they were thrown even further. Even the most optimistic people know that the suspense of the final return of the Premier League title this season has become weaker and weaker.
"At the end of the game, both sides gave us a classic game. Gunpowder, great goals, this game has all the ingredients to captivate the fans. It's a game that's bound to be the talk of the whole of English football, with people talking about every goal, every clash, every little funny detail and every crazy thing. At Highbury, 3-2, Chelsea relied on their strength to secure the three points again, and their table so far this season has been insane.
Who else can stop Arsenal after their defeat? At least in English football, I don't think so. Perhaps bookmakers can stop betting on the Premier League winner this season, but for now it seems that there is no suspense. Soon after. The dreaded Christmas schedule is about to begin. I don't know how much Chelsea will continue to widen the gap by then. The same. We hope they can also make a splash in the Champions League schedule. Bear the name of the Premier League. ”
With Lineker's voice gone, the broadcast of the game officially ended. And in Highbury, the story of this game is far from over. Around the frustrated Arsenal players, the excited Chelsea players hugged each other in celebration. It was arguably the most thrilling and difficult game they've faced so far this season, so it was a win to celebrate.
The Arsenal man is clearly not interested and is here to watch the opposition celebrate. Not only the players, but also the Arsenal fans left the pitch in high spirits, and they came in anticipation. In the end, he could only leave in frustration. At the beginning of the tunnel, Cesc Fabregas suddenly stopped his steps and turned his head to look at the Chelsea number 13 who was surrounded by Chelsea players on the field, his eyes full of unwillingness and burning fighting spirit.
"Let's go, Francisco, we will win next time, and we will get this victory back." Vieira, who was next to him, said, then tapped him on the shoulder, took him and walked towards the players' tunnel. Before fully entering the player's tunnel. Fabregas still looked back one last time unwillingly, and as a loser, he said firmly and secretly in his heart: "Definitely, it must be us next time." "Old Ray doesn't know. At this moment, he ushered in a potential chaser, and he was once again the target of being chased. But even if he knew, he wouldn't care. Maybe he'll say, "You're still far away, boy." Take your time. ”
At the post-match press conference, Lao Lei naturally became the focus of reporters. His closed-eyes penalty, his stunning breakthrough and his stories with Patrick Vieira, Thierry Henry and Cesc Fabregas are all the best selling points in the news. 'Remaier, what do you think this win means for you and for Chelsea?' "It doesn't mean anything special, I mean, it's just an ordinary part of a successful season. It was a rare victory, perhaps, but it didn't mean anything special to me. Victory, that's just my habit! ”
"Smack", "Slap", "Smack"... In Manchester, Milan, London and Barcelona, a number of youngsters turned off their televisions at almost the same time, all watching the video of the press conference after the Chelsea and Arsenal spotlight clashes. They may come from different countries, but they are all football players and they all have an unyielding desire to win, so at this moment, they all walked out of the house with the football in their arms and went to their respective training grounds. Although Lao Lei is the leader at this time, he faces many strong challengers.
However, this is not the moment when Ray and Chelsea need to worry. With the Christmas Devils schedule approaching, Jose Mourinho has taken the lead in rotating his squad. For example, after the game against Arsenal, he began to rotate heavily in the Champions League group stage at home to Paris Saint-Germain in midweek. With the group already confirmed, this game is no longer a big deal for Chelsea.
For Paris Saint-Germain, however, this is not the case. Now in Group H, they are battling it out with Porto for the last place to qualify. They sit second in the group, just two points ahead of Porto, a gap that can be reversed in a single game. So for them, only by winning the last two group games can they completely take their destiny into their own hands.
Although they faced a large rotation of Chelsea in this game, it was not easy for them to get a win. Chelsea's substitutes cherish this rare opportunity to play. As long as they still have the heart to be the main force, they will not give up such an opportunity. Chelsea played a goalkeeper at Stamford Bridge and dealt the killer blow to the visiting PSG on two quick counter-attacks in the 30th minute of the first half and the 53rd minute of the second half. 2-0, Chelsea won the game without blood. At the same time, Porto defeated CSKA Moscow, overtook Paris Saint-Germain, and successfully overtook Paris Saint-Germain. Temporarily ranked second in Group H. The suspense of qualifying for this group will be maintained until the final round of the group stage.
End the Champions League group stage. Back in the Premier League, Chelsea are at home in the round of 18. Norwich City are welcome to challenge the relegation favourites. Against such opponents, Chelsea continue to rotate heavily in this game. Lao Ray took a group of substitutes and killed Norwich directly at Stamford Bridge. Just three minutes into the game, Ray took Guò's free-kick and curled a beautiful curling ball to open the door for Chelsea.
Taking the lead early and having the advantage of strength, Chelsea played calmly in the following games, showing 18 martial arts, and the Chelsea fans who watched the game were very happy. Thereafter. In the 21st and 35th minutes of the first half, Chelsea comfortably took a three-goal lead through Kezman and Joe Cole to put the suspense out of the game before half-time. In the 56th minute of the second half, a direct long pass from Lao Lei assisted GoodJohnson to score a goal, locking the score of the game at 4:0.
Then, in midweek, Chelsea played their final Champions League group game of the season, at home to Porto. It's a crucial game for Porto and Paris Saint-Germain to qualify from the group. Considering the strong Porto factor in Chelsea's squad, Paris Saint-Germain's head coach Mr. Harrier has already spoken publicly, expressing his hope that Chelsea can uphold the principle of competitive sports fairness. You can go all out to win this game.
Although I don't know what others think about this, Lao Lei's attitude can be clearly seen. In the first few days before the game, Chelsea's number 13, who has always been known as a steel body. Suddenly, the news broke out that he was in poor health and hung up his war-free card. on this. Although the media in Paris scolded and strongly demanded that UEFA intervene in the investigation. But even if they know it, UEFA really can't count on it, so they can only live by it.
But now, everyone knows the fact that Chelsea are going to release water. In this regard, no one will help Paris Saint-Germain to speak, after all, it is none of their business, the red lantern is hung high, and no one will be okay to provoke the most popular team because of this. So on the day of the game, people saw this scene, Lao Lei appeared in the stands at Stamford Bridge with Kayla with a ruddy face.
In this regard, Mr. Khalier blushed with a face, and scolded in his heart: "Even if you are still in poor health, then Lao Tzu can go directly to the coffin." Recently, Mr. Khalil, who has suffered from a severe cold due to the team's poor results and excessive physical and mental fatigue, is really qualified to say this. Compared with Lao Lei's pale face, that is the kind that should stay in the hospital care unit.
However, it wasn't the worst for him, as he watched the Chelsea starting line-up on TV take his scolding to the next level, and a naked conspiracy unfolded in front of him. At this time, he was very sure of one thing, that is, Mourinho and Lao Lei were indeed the master and apprentice of each other. As for the reason, "Tama's, only a master who lacks virtue can teach such a disciple who lacks virtue." What appeared to him was an all-bench line-up with the exception of Petr Cech.
This is already the biggest release that Lao Lei and Mourinho can do, and the game still has to be won by Porto themselves after all. After all, they don't dare to go too far, otherwise the UEFA stick will fall on their heads. They have done their best, and all that remains is for Porto to fight for themselves. The final result of this game was 2:1, Porto beat Chelsea away and managed to secure another place in Group H. With the exception of Khaliel and his Paris Saint-Germain, it was a happy result.
"The game was over and the defending champions advanced in a thrilling late minute that was the best result for Porto and they avoided becoming a joke. But for this game, in addition to themselves, I have to thank a few people. Oh, hehe, look at Reima's smile, I don't know if I think he's still a Porto player. Is he in poor health? Who knows? Except for the blind. Hahaha. ”
Lao Lei looked at the Porto players on the field and was overjoyed. As for what will happen to PSG, that's not on his radar. If it weren't for the fear of going too far, he would have applauded when Porto scored.
Thinking about it, the smile on his face widened.
He thought about some of the criticisms he might face after the game, "match-fixing", "no football morality", "mean"
But, who cares?! (To be continued......)
