- Chapter 745 Mud
As the home team, Chelsea players, led by captain Terry, shook hands with the Newcastle players standing next to them one by one.
This scene seems friendly, but for the players on both sides, there is nothing friendly between them.
This game is already their third meeting this season, and just ten days later, they will complete their final league match at St. James Park.
This game, and the game ten days later, are likely to determine whether Newcastle or Chelsea are the champions of the Premier League and Europe this season - no one is willing to lose a season's hard work.
At this moment, they completely forgot that even if they could win the game, they still had to pass AC Milan in the final. AC Milan's rich experience in the Champions League was only slightly inferior to the best European club in the 20th century. real Madrid.
Now they only have opponents in their eyes. This opponent has been entangled with him in the league and Champions League until now.
After today's game, the competition between the two teams in the Champions League will come to an end, and the competition in the league will continue until the end of this season - next season, this competition will continue until One of the two sides started to sink.
The charm of the professional league lies in this. Any great team and any great player must have at least one great opponent in order to show more of their greatness.
Just like Arsenal is to Manchester United, Celtic is to Rangers, Milan duo is to Juventus, Barcelona is to Real Madrid, Maradona is to Matthaus, the Dutch three Musketeers are to the German trio. Driving a carriage.
If there is no equally great opponent, even if you have achieved an extremely brilliant record. It always feels like something is missing.
Nie Fei and Deke held their hands tightly.
Deco was a newcomer that Pei Wei specially introduced to fill the position after Nie Fei left Yunjia Tianyu. Soon, he integrated into the team and became a teammate fighting side by side in the national team. Now, in the Premier League In the league, they became rivals again.
The charm of the professional league. The same thing lies in this.
The opponents who just fought to the death in the Champions League final may fight side by side for their motherland in the World Cup in a few days.
In the eyes of the coach, Deco is more comprehensive than Nie Fei, but Nie Fei is more trustworthy than Deco.
In terms of technical characteristics, maybe Deco is more like a Chinese player, while Nie Fei is more like an authentic Brazilian player.
"Today's venue is very favorable to me." At the moment of shaking hands, Deco said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. I'm also good at running." Nie Fei shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly.
The players on the field were tit for tat, and the coaches off the field didn't have a good look towards each other either - during the routine handshake before the game, Mourinho and Benitez only touched their fingers slightly and then separated. .
The friendship established at the 2002 World Cup. Finally no longer exists - at least in the game, no longer exists. Maybe there will be a chance to have a drink and talk after the two retire in the future, but at least for now. This scene cannot happen again.
The two sat down on their coaching benches separately. Mourinho took out a piece of chewing gum and threw it into his mouth, chewing it slowly. Benitez took out a cigar and put it under his nose to rub it. , but did not light it.
¡°Beep¡ª¡ª¡± the referee Mitchell from Slovakia blew the whistle to start the game.
"Young people's game - this is the slogan set by major European media for this game.
Among the players on both sides, the oldest one is Newcastle¡¯s Makelele, and the other players are all under 30 years old. The head coaches of both sides are 44 years old and the other is 42 years old. They are absolute young coach level coaches. The two bosses, Pei Wei and Benitez are the same age, 44 years old, and Abu is six years younger than Pei Wei. Years old, which is extremely young among European club presidents. Even Mitchell, the referee of this game, is only thirty-nine years old!
Youth represents passion. But among all the media predictions before the game, no one thought it would be a passionate game.
Mourinho won the Champions League last season by scoring just nine goals in seven games in the knockout stages. The Portuguese coach has fully demonstrated the Italian's one-to-zero winning policy, and Benitez has turned Valencia, a La Liga team, into an Italian team. After Chelsea, Chelsea's goals conceded were greatly reduced. The teams led by these two people encounteredCome on, you don¡¯t need to think about it to know that it is probably impossible to see a wonderful game.
And what happened after the game started seems to be foreshadowing this.
Chelsea, who kicked off first, did not launch a fierce attack at the beginning. Instead, they stepped back in the midfield unhurriedly. Newcastle players were well prepared for this and did not attack in the middle as usual. The field started to press closely, but put on a defensive posture.
When the field is so slippery and you may step on a puddle of water at any time, any fierce fight will greatly consume the physical energy of the players. This is unbearable for the players on both sides who have been tired for nearly a season. loss.
Such a venue may cause unexpected mistakes for either side's offense and defense. During the attack, the slippery surface may cause the passing speed to suddenly accelerate or the ball to suddenly stop midway. It is also possible that you may slip and fall to the ground while defending, giving the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of you.
Therefore, for both sides, how to minimize their mistakes due to venue factors in this game can take the lead in the final victory.
This is exactly why Benitez used one hand. For Chelsea players who are extremely familiar with Stamford Bridge, the possibility of them making mistakes on this field is undoubtedly much smaller than that of the visiting team Newcastle.
Chelsea fell behind in the backcourt, and only two forwards, Ibrahimovic and Drogba, pressed forward. Knowing that Chelsea was trying to lure Newcastle into a massive attack, the Newcastle players would not be stupid enough to be fooled. Just let the two forwards harass in the frontcourt, while other players are waiting in their own positions.
Seeing Ibrahimovic rushing toward him, Carvalho, who was holding the ball, did not give him a chance to come up. He immediately passed the ball diagonally, intending to hand the ball to Gremi on the right.
The reason why he did not hand the ball to Terry, who was closer to him, was because Drogba was not far from Terry. If he passed the ball rashly, it was likely to cause a mistake.
But he has no calculations. It was still a mistake - the ball flew two meters in the air and then fell. It should have bounced to the ground and continued flying towards Gremi, but instead it bounced around in place and stopped just like that!
Everyone was stunned.
Ibrahimovic was the first to react. He took two long steps forward, caught up with the ball and headed towards the Chelsea goal, single-handedly!
Terry and Carvalho reacted at the same time and chased back quickly.
Ibrahimovic¡¯s speed is not too fast. In addition, the slippery lawn made dribbling the ball significantly more difficult, so when he dribbled the ball to the edge of the penalty area, he was already caught up by Carvalho from behind.
Ibrahimovic made a prompt decision, made an emergency stop, and then passed the ball laterally to Drogba, who had already followed. Drogba did not stop the ball. He raised his foot and hit the ball!
Terry fell to the ground and slid to the ground without caring about his own body, completely ignoring that his jersey was already covered in mud.
The ball hit Terry's outstretched leg and bounced upwards, drawing a beautiful arc in the air and passing over the head of Reina, who had fallen to the ground at the same time. Not very fast but flying towards the goal without any hindrance.
"We won't be so lucky, right?" Pei Wei had already stood up, looking at the ball falling towards the goal with his mouth wide open.
The Chelsea player closest to the goal who has not yet fallen to the ground is Gala, but he is still about ten meters away from the goal and there is no time to block the ball.
If this goal is scored, it will be the third time Newcastle has opened the scoring for the team in this way after the two rounds of the game against Bayern!
If this is really the case, then no one can deny that Newcastle's luck in the Champions League is extremely good!
??In a moment. Everyone's eyes were focused on the ball that had fallen downwards.
There was a soft "pop" sound, and the ball landed exactly on the goal line. With the angle and strength of the ball's downward landing, it would bounce upward the next moment and then fall into the goal.
Chelsea fans are all heartbroken.
At this moment, something unexpected happened. The ball that landed on the goal line did not bounce upward as everyone expected, but stopped on the goal line. like a statue.
This is when everyone discovered it. There is an area in front of Chelsea's goal where there is almost no green left, and it looks like a patch of mud.
The ball is firmly stuck to the soil. No more movement.
Gala¡¯s heart almost jumped out of his chest. In order to defend himself, he had just run out of his own body.At high speed, if he hits the ball, even slightly, the ball may roll into the goal.
Gala had no time to stop. With an idea, he jumped up, then stretched out his right foot and tapped the ball desperately. The moment it touched the ball, he used his toes to push the ball back!
"Bang!" Gallas slammed into the goal, his face covered in mud, but the ball rolled out of the goal after he pushed it.
Carvalho caught up with him in stride and kicked the ball far ahead of Ibrahimovic.
At this time, everyone came back to their senses and exhaled involuntarily. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
