Chapter 171: A Tooth for a Tooth
PS: The recommended ticket is still bleak! Let's not ask for anything else, let's give some recommendation votes!
'It won't be a conservative game from the start, with both sides looking to make a difference, with Liverpool winning one and drawing one against Chelsea in the Champions League semi-finals last season, keeping a clean sheet. Chelsea were knocked out of the tournament with a controversial goal, and this time we are back at home to Stamford Bridge, when the injured Pablo Ferreira returned to the starting line-up, with new signing Essien strengthening in midfield, with Arjen Robben and new signing Ibrahimovic both starting after missing the Anfield game through injury. Liverpool sent in new signing Crouch, with Luis Garcia and Cisse supporting the attack. ”
The excitement at Stamford Bridge was created by the Chelsea fans right after the kick-off, which not only brought confidence and motivation to the home side, but also put a lot of pressure on every visiting team.
Liverpool were given the right to pick the edge and Chelsea kicked off first. Ibrahimovic knocked on Lampard behind him and ran forward.
Frank Lampard received the ball and didn't rush to split it, he was the link of the whole team and handled every ball with care. After seeing the fork of Jonker on the side, he immediately took advantage of the gap of the opposing player and stuffed it straight to Jonker.
Jonker went straight past Alonso's interception from the right flank, and with a slight rub, the ball came to a steady stop at his feet, at which time Liverpool's half-court defenders were too many, so he didn't stick to the ball, and a diagonal pass gave the ball to Robben, who had just run up.
Speaking of cooperation, Robben already has an inexplicable feeling with Jonck, saying that the tacit understanding is a bit inconsistent, but it is like Jonk conquering a fierce horse. And the fierce horse willingly served him, of course, the two also interacted, but Robben, the fierce horse, had a much more restrained personal temperament when he met Jonck.
Chelsea have someone in the squad who can make Arjen Robben like that. There is absolutely no second one, Dutch Peter Pan is very individual, which has a certain relationship with the overall liberal character of the Dutch, many Dutch players have an unruly personality, which is inextricably linked with the fact that they grew up on Dutch soil.
Why is Robben so special to Jonck! may have originated from the first meeting in the Eredivisie, and the perverted Jonker left a too deep impression on Robben. In the Premier League, it is still like this, and there is a tacit understanding between seemingly strange combinations.
Robben was alert, turned and pulled the ball backwards to dodge Gerrard, who came to steal the ball. Turned, and with a heel knocked back to Jonker.
Jonker got the ball and quickly moved to the middle, near the penalty area, facing two defenders. A sharp turn to the right. Before the other party could react, he slammed the door vigorously!
Liverpool's goalkeeper Reina raised high, but still couldn't reach the ball, the ball was too fast! Unfortunately, however, the ball flew off the left post. The ball was so dangerous that the entire Liverpool dugout stood up!
Just two minutes into the game, Jonk sent Liverpool supporters out in a cold sweat with a trademark powerful long-range shot.
Stamford Bridge was instantly filled with the sighs of the home Chelsea fans, and they were just a little bit away from scoring. Jonk was also quite annoyed, and his hands grabbed his hair and rubbed his scalp incessantly.
"Jonk was very active from the start. The entire Chelsea offensive side has been activated by him, a little bit worse, in fact, Liverpool's goalkeeper has disarmed and surrendered, it seems that the bad things outside, the absence of a few days of training, has not made Jonker forget his skills, and even it seems that today's young man is more sharp, with a courageous momentum! Lineker's commentary doesn't seem to be very neutral, which doesn't fit his usual commentary style, but somehow, when it comes to Jonker's game, that feeling can't be suppressed, as if he's back on the court, always so enthusiastic.
Yes, watching Jonker play always gives people a feeling of excitement, and the Chelsea fans in the stadium are even more crazy than they were just now, and the blue sea of Stamford Bridge is blowing hurricanes, and that poor touch of red looks so fragile, crumbling in a sea that you can't hear anything.
Stamford Bridge today is really different!
It was the first time that Jonker had felt such enthusiastic support from the Stamford Bridge fans, and the atmosphere at home was all the more exciting for him, with more than 50,000 fans in the audience cheering on Chelsea and cheering him on.
There are no too many words to express, and only with excellent performance, goals, and victory in the revenge battle can he repay the fans for their support!
Liverpool was a little afraid of the shot just now, the hasty shot on the line of the big penalty area has such a great force, it is conceivable that there is no need to doubt how terrifying the young brunette boy's foot strength is, many sad goalkeepers are living examples, but he can't let him get up in the penalty area casually, captain Gerrard immediately ordered the defender Finnan to defend the left side and carefully guard Jonker.
Chelsea's tactics were a bit strange today, with Ibrahimovic in the middle and Robben and Jonk on the wings, while the two were not in a very fixed position, and the pair could often be seen working together on the flanks after the opening.
did not participate in any pre-match preparations, but Jonk played a sharper effect than Mourinho's design, how can it not make Mourinho excited, at the moment in the coach's seat the Portuguese coach is constantly communicating with his assistants, trying to record everything on the field accurately.
Liverpool are certainly not an easy team to admit defeat, and last season's Champions League trophy was by no means won by luck alone, and they launched a powerful offensive immediately after the restart.
The skilful interplay of Finnen, Alonso and Cisse on the left flank led to a quick run of the ball into Chelsea's bottom line, where Cisse shook off Galla and headed into the box.
Crouch, who was ambushed in the penalty area and had a slender and tall figure in a Chinese novel, jumped high and swung his head, the ball changed direction and rushed towards the goal, but fortunately goalkeeper Cech was in a reasonable position and hurriedly picked up the ball.
Don't look at Crouch's physical advantage, but he is too tall, but he still grabbed the point. It's just that Terry didn't make him feel better, and the top football didn't have much power.
Jonk didn't go back to defense, he knew that his mission today was not to defend. Attacking is what he should do, when he saw that Makelele controlled the ball, he immediately raised his hand to ask for the ball, Makelele looked up, a big kick, the ball flew in his direction, and now Liverpool only have five defenders in their half. Absolutely great opportunity!
At this point, he didn't play his speed, and quickly ran towards the spot where the ball landed, just as the ball was about to fall to his feet. Carragher, who was scrambling next to him, hit him the shoulder, causing his body to fall directly to the ground.
Jonk was a little annoyed, watching that the ball was about to be snatched by Carragher, and he was a little unwilling to use his left hand and left foot to support the ground. The raised right foot turned out to be at the moment when Carragher let his guard down. Before intercepting the ball, he made a lost step, and the ball obediently stopped next to his left foot.
You know, his whole body is lying on the ground now, after the ball stopped at his left foot, Carragher was a little dumbfounded, if he wants to grab the ball, he must first go over the person on the ground. But it's easy to kick someone first and get fouled.
However, Jonk doesn't give him time to think about it. With his left foot on the ground, it was completely impossible for an ordinary person to make a movement, and he stood up completely on his legs, and gently walked forward past Carragher, who was still stunned.
The whole action is unusually chic and elegant, and there is really a kind of style of Chu Liuxiang, a senior in the flower world.
Carragher has a terrifying feeling of saying no, in the eyes of the fans, it is a perfect action, only the players themselves know what such an action means!
It was too late, it was too fast, and the whole process was less than a few seconds, and the Chelsea fans in the audience were obviously shocked by Jonker's action, at this time, the whole stadium was silent, but in the blink of an eye, there was a cheer, they were cheering for seeing this visual treat, and they were also glad that they did not miss this wonderful game, with this performance, this game was completely worth the ticket price!
After Jonker shook off Carragher, he quickly rushed forward with the ball. In the interim, though, Liverpool have had a couple of players quickly run back into their own half, ready to pack the Chelsea knives in the ball.
He continued to carry the ball forward, looking for any viable opportunity, passing? It's not impossible to go it alone! It all depends on the timing and the handling of the ball at Jonker's feet, Ibrahimovic has begun to step forward, the big man is also supporting Jonk with his actions, Ibrahimovic takes a Liverpool defender, and the pressure on Jonk plummets.
Benitez stood up excitedly, "Defend him, don't let him shoot!" ”
It seems that the Spaniard has seen something, changed his usual style, and roared to remind the Liverpool players on the field.
Without the manager's reminder, several of Liverpool's defenders have long been unable to stand it, if this kid is allowed to dribble the ball in their half like no one, when these defenders are wooden stakes?
Hyypia and Traore immediately ran over to block Jonker, in the face of these two people, Jonk did not have a trace of panic, but his eyes became more and more determined, if people who are familiar with him, they will definitely say a sentence half-jokingly, there is murderous aura in their eyes, but the sudden momentum does make his whole person look unstoppable.
The other two have already rushed up, Hyypia's sturdy body is blocked in front of Jonck, and Traore's kick is a slash, Jonk didn't expect the two to have such a tacit defensive understanding, and it is a ruthless move to solve the crisis immediately!
In an instant, Jonk felt an intimate rendezvous between the other party's hard soles and his own skin, and his body fell in the direction of Traore.
It's not rushing to the ball at all, it's clear that he is deliberately kicking people, and Jonk was able to dodge it, but who knew that Traore raised his thighs halfway and raised the soles of his shoes!
How could Jonk not be angry, every time he broke the ball, he used this trick, and the iron man couldn't stand it, if it weren't for the Xuangong body protection, maybe he would be carried out directly!
So, in the process of the body falling, he controlled his left foot to lift slightly, and then entered a trace of Xuangong, and kicked the right leg of the Liverpool player under him, Jonk is not a sinister person, and even sometimes shows some tendons on the court, too persistent and serious, but this time he is really angry, this kick threatens his professional life, for such a person, he will not keep his hand, fortunately it is him, if he is someone else, it may be over for a lifetime.
After kicking on, he fell to the ground in embarrassment, his socks cracked, and blood flowed from his calves. The shovel was indeed heavy, and the moment the two of them came into contact looked more like Jonker's natural reaction after his body lost control.
This time. There was an exclamation of surprise from the audience, followed by a shout of scolding, but they were all a little strange, why did the tackle player seem to be in more pain than lying on the ground, or even more painful than Jonk?
Pretend, can it be more realistic! It's so shameless, and you have to pretend to be pitiful when you are foul. To whom? The referee is red carded, and the butcher with X is invited out!
The reaction from the fans was quite violent, and the Premier League stands were so close to the pitch. Jonk could even hear the shouts of the fans.
The referee hurriedly ran over at this time, what kind of pretending to be this brother wanted to win an Oscar on the field? Or a diving champion? Are you trying to deceive me with this kind of trick? He pulled out a yellow card and flashed it to Traore, who was lying on the ground wailing, and awarded Chelsea a free-kick in a good position in front of the penalty area.
I saw that Jonk's leg was bleeding. The referee hurriedly waved his hand to let the team doctor and stretcher on the sidelines enter the field. Carry Jonk to the sidelines for a simple treatment.
At this time, no one paid attention to Traore who was lying on the ground and constantly grinning, and even his teammates couldn't look at it, just a little bit, didn't see what was shown was a yellow card and no red card! The show should be over, and besides, it's clear that you shoveled others, and at the end of the day, you instead lay on the ground and pretended to be seriously injured. Some of the Liverpool players had a fever on their faces.
Traore was suffering at this time, he couldn't say it, his leg hurt badly. The calf that had been accidentally 'carried' by Jonck's left foot seemed to be a little swollen, and he couldn't speak at all because of the pain.
It wasn't until they watched the replay on the big screen that the Liverpool players realized that at the moment when Jonker fell to the ground, his left foot was 'unconscious' to Traore's leg, and after reacting, he hurriedly ran over to help Traore, however, some tragedy is that Traore seems to be unstable, his leg is limping, and it seems that he is going to go down.
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez immediately replaced the injured Traore with Pongele, secretly calling out bad luck in his heart, losing a defender in less than 10 minutes of the game, which somewhat disrupted his pre-game tactical planning.
Not only the deployment, the sense of crisis since the opening is becoming more and more obvious, Benitez wants to change, but there is no way to start, the opponent has compiled a huge net for Liverpool, and the net is being closed step by step at the moment, but Liverpool can't do anything at the moment, such a passive feeling makes the Spaniards crazy.
Bet! You have to gamble, you can't go on like this, you can't go crazy, you don't have time to think about it anymore, after being forced to make substitutions, Benitez went to the sidelines and used the opportunity of the dead ball to tell Gerrard to let the whole team press out, fight back desperately, and pay attention to his gestures, and when it comes to stopping, he can stop.
Gerrard didn't have time to think about the intentions behind Benitez's move, and since the manager asked him to do it, he carried it out, and without the slightest hesitation, he began to set it up.
Liverpool launched a crazy attack, Benitez hoped that Liverpool's sudden change could find a hint of inspiration, suddenly Mourinho's big net, he was betting right, especially when Jonk was still receiving treatment on the sidelines, the timing was right, Liverpool must grasp it, cut the big net, and bring the game back to parity.
"Crazy, crazy! Liverpool began to spare no effort at the moment to build the wall, constantly speeding up the attack, pressing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge to attack! Mourinho frowned in the camera, was he worried about the passivity of the team? How did he deal with it? The content of the opening ten minutes is too rich, not to lose a duel between top teams, this is a Champions League group stage, let us see such a wonderful duel, not only in the field, but also the two managers in the field of gunsmoke battle! ”
Lineker is not a loss of ace commentators, telling all the situation behind the game, but more specifically, he is still observing, how can the intentions behind the two managers be so easy to discern insight.
Jonker looked very anxious from the sidelines, in less than two minutes, Liverpool quickly launched a number of attacks, the front court was missing Jonker's point, and it was difficult for Chelsea to retract the fist to hit it again, but no matter what, the bleeding must be stopped, and the team doctor was still meticulously bandaging, and it was finally completed.
He couldn't wait to stand up and raised his hand to signal that he could get back on the field.
Come on! Standing on the sidelines, it was a kind of torment, and it would be suffocating to stay any longer, and the referee finally turned around and saw Jonker and beckoned Jonk to return to the field.
At the same time, Benitez roared loudly, one palm spread out, clearly conveying something.
Gerrard really sees it, five minutes, Liverpool has to attack for five minutes, the physical fitness is enough, the players have more time on the field, thinking not about tactics, but how to distribute their physical fitness, stupid players can never become top players, there is not enough physical support, no matter how good the players are, they are also soft-footed crabs, the better the players, the more they know when to do what to do, how to distribute the physical fitness of the good to ensure a good performance in the game.
Of course, many times the manager has to think about this as well, and many times the situation suddenly turns around for both teams, not for other reasons, but because of fitness.
In order to break through the net, Benitez must bet on the rapid physical consumption of the whole Liverpool team, as long as he finds a way, he wins, and if he can't find it, he can only wait for Liverpool to be beaten in the second half when his physical strength is weak, this is the case on the football field, you sing the first day of junior high and I sing the fifteenth, some things must be returned.
