Chapter 92: The Time Bomb Triggered
After seeing Lao Lei's response on the big screen at the scene, Ronaldo's face suddenly pulled down, and the joy when he just scored was gone. The Chelsea fans and commentators at the scene also laughed out loud at this. A lot of people couldn't help but tease, like Lineker, who couldn't help but laugh and say, "Oh my God! Hahahaha, did Reima forget that this is his teammate in the national team, I wonder if Scolari will be worried about the fire in his back garden when he sees this scene?! Looking at Cristiano's face, it was almost like he was constipated. Hahaha! ”
On the field, Ronaldo snorted coldly, pulled a face, turned around and walked towards the Manchester United half, no longer had the intention of celebrating. At this time, the only thought in his mind was to score a few more goals, and then see if Lao Lei could be so easy. His idea is good, but it's not an easy thing to do, Chelsea's defence is not vegetarian. Add to that home advantage, and unless it's Chelsea's own mistakes, it will be very difficult for United to make another effort to extend the scoreline.
And that's exactly what happened. After Chelsea conceded a goal, Jose Mourinho on the sidelines was very unhappy and angry. He was furious at the players on the field, and he punished his disciples mercilessly. "Attention! Attention!! If you don't want to play, if you don't want to play, get out of here. Kick the ball with my brain, with my brain! Are you fools?! In the face of Mourinho's scolding, the Chelsea players could only bow their heads and accept it, and wait for the game to restart. Give Manchester United a good look. So after the game restarts, the United players will be able to find out. In front of them was an even harder, suffocating Chelsea wall. They feel weak on the offensive end.
Seeing this scene, Lord Fu, who was still thinking of taking advantage of the situation to score another goal by relying on the morale that had risen because of the goal, immediately made a tactical change and gave tactical instructions to the Manchester United players on the field to retreat. Such a decisive on-the-spot tactical command made Mourinho on the side can't help but look sideways, making him feel that this old man is not simple again. It's not an easy thing to keep such a cool head and make the right choice when you have an advantage. Whether it's on the football field, or in other areas. Incidents that fail because of a momentary greed abound and are not uncommon. And the people who can maintain success for a long time are often the ones who can stay calm at any time.
There is no doubt that Lord Fro, who has been in charge of Manchester United for almost 20 years now, is such a person. However, in the face of this senior who Mourinho himself admires, Mourinho does not intend to back down. For him, who aspires to become the world's No. 1 coach, Ferguson is a mountain that must be crossed in front of him. On the sidelines, he waved his hand and motioned for his disciples to press the attack and retake the situation. Meanwhile. He also called up several strikers on the bench to warm up. Mourinho's style of football is triumphalist and pragmatic, but he is not a conservative man who can do what the most extreme gambler can do in a pinch.
Then. The situation on the pitch became that Manchester United were in control of the situation and Chelsea took the initiative. Watch the Manchester United players take control of the football slowly. The disgruntled boos of Chelsea fans were immediately resounding again at Stamford Bridge. Lao Lei also joined in. When the Manchester United players controlled the football, he was with the fans around him. Booing at the Manchester United players.
However, at this time, it is Chelsea who are not in the ascendancy. The disadvantage of the lack of Lao Lei began to be magnified, and the Chelsea midfielder without Lao Lei always lacked some strength and aura in front of the Manchester United midfielder in attack. Frank Lampard is also excellent, but his role in front of Keane is very limited. Because Ray didn't play, and the frustrated Keane apparently focused all his firepower on Frank Lampard. The veteran's aggressive momentum and seasoned experience make Frank Lampard's junior look very sad.
In addition, Chelsea can gain some advantage on both flanks. However, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ryan Giggs are not weak, and their savings are also a bogeyer for Chelsea's wide players, and with neither of Chelsea's two full-backs able to assist in pressing, the results that Joe Cole and Duff can achieve in attack are really limited. At this point, Chelsea are either taking the initiative to make changes or going all out and praying for some luck.
Between the two, the pragmatist Jose Mourinho did not hesitate to choose the former. In the 70th minute of the second half, he finally took the lead in making the change, and made two substitutions at once. Gudjohnson and Kezman came on to replace Parker and Carvalho respectively. Chelsea's formation suddenly became 3-3-4, which was an upside-down formation compared to the opening game, turning the starting formation back and forth. The commentators were also amazed by Mourinho's bold and radical tactics, and once again greeted God and his old man.
"Oh my God, Mourinho is just crazy, did he forget that there was a second leg?! It's a big gamble, and the slightest mistake is a big defeat. Whether this substitution is right or wrong, no one can comment on it now, and we can only leave it to time to test. Mourinho's adventure, whether it is a success or an end, is in this short 20 minutes! ”
In the face of Mourinho's bold substitution, Ferguson was also surprised, and he could even see the murderous spirit of the opponent. However, he quickly calmed down, after all, the countless life and death moments he experienced in his decades-long coaching career have long allowed him to maintain a calm attitude in the face of anything. At this time, although his mind is calm, his heart is fiery. In the face of the strong challenge of Mourinho, a junior, the old man's fiery and strong temperament did not change, and the fighting spirit in his heart burned like a young man in his early 20s.
Like the fierce sideline fighting of the two head coaches, the players of both sides are also fiercely competing on the field, and the scene of fighting for every inch of land is always staged. After Mourinho's substitution. The rhythm on the field suddenly stepped onto the high-speed channel, and the rhythm of mutual offensive and defensive switching has been greatly improved. The fastest. It only takes about 2 minutes, and the two sides can attack and defend each other for a round. Thrilling scenes that keep coming. Bring the hearts of all the on-site spectators to the roller coaster and start the galloping rush.
This situation has brought an extremely oppressive atmosphere to Stamford Bridge, and everyone's eyes are fixed on the small round sphere, and the surprise or joy suddenly changes with it, as exciting as riding a roller coaster. At this time, Lao Lei was also engrossed in cheering for his teammates. But at the same time, the regret in his heart also deepened again. "It was a good game, it's a shame! What a pity! ”
At the same time full of regrets. He is also thinking about what kind of way to help his teammates. Although he could not play in person, as a Chinese dressed in Caucasian skin, he knew the meaning of the word "attacking the heart" since he was a child. Looking at Ronaldo, who was still galloping back and forth on the field, as the offensive arrow of Manchester United's frontcourt, and looked very active, Lao Lei's eyes rolled, and the corners of his mouth once again hung a sinister smile.
As soon as he thought of it, he immediately whispered a few words to the fans around him. This is a middle-aged Chelsea fan. Obviously, he was a little dissatisfied with Lao Lei watching the game at such a moment, if it weren't for Lao Lei, he would probably have scolded him a long time ago. But after he heard what Lao Lei said, his face was dissatisfied and immediately followed the wind. Blow it by. His eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth hung up with the same sinister smile as Lao Lei, obviously he had been attracted by Lao Lei's thoughts.
Soon. He whispered, messaged, and all sorts of other things. Spread the attention of Lao Lei. At a rate comparable to the spread of the virus, the news quickly spread to every corner of the Stamford Bridge stands where Chelsea fans lived. This time. I have to admit the passion of English fans for football. When the team is playing, they can always show incredible unity and cohesion.
In the 78th minute of the first half, Gudjohnson tried to send a through ball to Drogba. But his passing route was seen through by the old fritter Keane at a glance. With a sideways foot block, the United captain broke the ball again. He then played a long ball and immediately handed the ball to Paul Scholes in midfield. Then, in the face of Keane's pass, Jiang Tou rushed to the side of the ball before Lampard came up to block this time, and directly volleyed to the side and back of the football, and handed it to Ronaldo, who was starting at full speed.
And at the moment when Ronaldo touched the ball, the entire Stamford Bridge suddenly erupted into a neat and loud shout, like a lightning bolt suddenly crossing the sky, making Ronaldo slightly startled, "Remaya!" Remayr! Remayr! If Lao Lei hadn't stayed in his seat honestly, I'm afraid someone would have thought that his ears were hallucinating.
"What's going on?! If I hadn't had a problem with my eyes, Reima would still be sitting in the stands. Is it my ears that are wrong, or are my eyes wrong?! The Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge suddenly chanted Remaier's name, did they still expect Remaier to suddenly come on at this time?! I really don't understand. ”
I don't know if it's this narrator, and everyone else is a mess and doesn't know what's going on. Lineker was also a little puzzled, but looking at Ronaldo who was on the field with the ball, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, could it be?
His guess was right, Ronaldo, who was rushing towards the Chelsea penalty area with the ball on the field at this time, was already a little unconscious. Young and vigorous, he regarded this as a disdain for Chelsea fans, and sarcastically mocked him as far inferior to Lao Ray. If it was some other general provocation, it might have no effect on him, but this was just a kick until he always wanted to surpass, but in the end he always lost the old Lei. Although in the national team, he temporarily acquiesced to Lao Lei's core position, he never gave up, and he was convinced that the idea of surpassing Lao Lei was not weakened, but became stronger day by day. The competitiveness and paranoia of young people have made Lao Lei unconsciously become Ronaldo's demon, and this has become his psychological weakness when he is still young.
Lao Lei's idea was correct, and as soon as he was stimulated by the tens of thousands of people on the scene, Ronaldo's mind began to feel a little unconscious. At this time, the first thing in his mind became to prove himself, to beat Lao Lei, not to win this game for Manchester United. This should be regarded as a common problem of impulsive young strongmen, and the starting point of Ronaldo is firmly grasped by Lao Lei.
At this time, he turned and inserted into Scholes and had already begun to raise his hand to Ronaldo to ask for the ball, but Ronaldo rushed directly into the encirclement of Makelle and Gala like a bull with red eyes, as if he didn't see it. In such a situation, the result of Ronaldo's strong assault is obvious. Makelele and Gala teamed up to break the ball off his feet with ease. At this time, "Remayr! Remayr! ..."The cry became louder, like an electric drill, into the ears of Ronaldo, who lowered his head. In the face of Scholes's complaints, Ronaldo was speechless, just stuffed his head and quickly retreated to his own half. Seeing this, Ferguson, who was on the sidelines, also frowned and snorted more. Those who know him well know that Ferguson is really angry. But after thinking about it, he didn't move, "This is the price of growth, don't let me down, boy!" ”
Four minutes later, the scene recurred. Cristiano Ronaldo, who was dribbling the ball, still chose to go it alone as if he didn't see Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was shouting in the penalty area. The result was the same, he was cut off again, and this time Chelsea played a quick counter-attack. After receiving a pass from Frank Lampard, Duff on the right flank was like a sharp knife, straight into the heart of Manchester United. He then made a precise 45-degree pass that found Drogba in the box.
Drogba's header was saved by Howard, but Kezman's next follow-up shot made Howard helpless. “GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! Amid the excitement of the on-site commentary, Stamford Bridge erupted like a volcanic eruption, erupting like a sea of cheers.
At this time, Ronaldo lowered his head, and no one could see his expression. Only his body was trembling slightly, that was unwilling.
At the same time, Lao Lei's face appeared on the big screen at the scene again. With a big smile, he gave a thumbs up to the field, which was proud.
In the audience again "Remayar! Remayr! ...", his pride was infinitely amplified.
He even improvised and danced a short chore.
And at this moment, in the corner where no one saw, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of Chelsea's No.2, which was dissatisfaction and resentment.
He remembered the No. 13 that belonged to him, the steal he made in this counterattack, and the cheers of his own that never appeared.
Before anyone knew it, Chelsea's ticking time bomb seemed to have been triggered! (To be continued......)
