Chapter 848
Hiddink is unwilling to meet a Manchester City team in good form, but Chelsea's players don't think so.

They even hope that Manchester City will send their main players to the game, because only in this way can they have a chance to avenge their revenge. In the league, Chelsea lost to Manchester City because of tactical reasons, almost without resistance at home.The loss of this game has kept Chelsea's players in their hearts.Also because of the failure of this game, Chelsea players were dissatisfied with coach Guus Hiddink.

Chelsea players have always believed that they should not give up attacking at home and choose to stick to it.If they play according to normal tactics, they may not necessarily lose to Manchester City at home.

The final loss to Manchester City was all a matter of tactical arrangements.

So in this FA Cup semi-final, the Chelsea players focused on defeating Manchester City, avenged their revenge, and returned all the grievances of losing the game to Manchester City intact.

Before the start of the game, players from both sides waited in the tunnel to get out.

Rong Guang just stood there quietly, not chatting with anyone, and then someone called his name behind him.

He looked back and laughed.

"Michelle."

Michelle Barack walked up with a smile on her face, opened her arms, and embraced Rong Guang proactively.

"I shouldn't have done this, because I'm going to be your opponent in a while." Ballack said. "Let me remind you, Rong, you don't want to beat us again in this match."

"Not necessarily, Michelle." Rong Guang smiled and shook his head.

"The whole Chelsea team is very unwilling to lose to you last time, because we actually lost that game without doing anything. We trained hard to beat you in this game." Ballack slightly lowered his voice.

"That's fine, Michelle. If you're not motivated, it's too boring to be an FA Cup semi-finalist."

Ballack smiled and punched Rong Guang: "It really is your style, see you on the court, this time I will not show mercy!"

"I should say that, Michelle."

The two embraced again, and then parted.Rong Guang stood where he was, while Ballack returned to his own team and greeted his teammates.

Rong Guang withdrew his gaze, looked outside through the exit of the passage, and continued to wait for the exit.

※※※

Ballack was right, in this game Chelsea tried their best to teach Manchester City a lesson, so when the game started, Chelsea was very active, every player was running actively, they even pushed their own press to the front of Manchester City's penalty area, which made Manchester City's players very uncomfortable-they had never expected that Chelsea would be so active in this game.

"...Chelsea players are like raging bulls, their eyes are red..." joked John Mortensen.But he was right, the Chelsea players were indeed very angry. Seeing Manchester City, it was like the envy of the enemy...

After the 0:1 loss to Manchester City, the whole of England laughed at them for being second in the league, and they were so useless.As a result, they lost the game, not to mention, they also fell from the second place in the league, and handed over No.2 to Liverpool.

At the same time, the impact of the loss of this game on Chelsea is not limited to that game. After losing to Manchester City, they lost to Tottenham Hotspur immediately.

The team seems to have lost some confidence and fighting spirit.

They desperately need to beat Manchester City again in this game, only then can they regain their confidence.

Not to mention that this FA Cup semi-final was held at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea's home court, where they lost 0:1 to Manchester City in a humiliating last time.

Same pitch, just revenge.

※※※

Manchester City really didn't expect the fighting spirit of Chelsea players. Just 10 minutes into the game, they made Chelsea's frontcourt rush and rush, which was very embarrassing.

Fortunately, the team's defense can always be organized at the last moment, otherwise the ball may be lost.

Seeing Chelsea's performance, the Chelsea fans in the stands shouted loudly and cheered for the Chelsea players.

This is the Chelsea they want to see, and this is the Chelsea they support. Chelsea played a fart in that game in the league!

The commentator on Chelsea Radio also shouted excitedly: "This is Chelsea! This is the normal Blues! Come on, go forward! Let Manchester City see how good we are!"

Lampard fired a long-range shot from the front of the penalty area. Joe Hart couldn't save it. The football was about to fly into the goal, but the ball scraped the edge of the post and ... flew out of the baseline!

There was a huge exclamation from the stands at Stamford Bridge, sorry for Lampard's missed chance to score.

"If this continues, it's only a matter of time before Chelsea score..." John Mortensen also said.

※※※

Mark Bowen stood beside Benitez worriedly, and said to him: "Chelsea made it clear that they want to avenge their loss in the league. This game is too unfavorable for us. I am worried that the players will be injured in such a fierce game...Look at the siege of Chelsea players before Lampard just took a long shot..."

He was talking about Ballack's press on Elano, who knocked Elano from the side and took the ball.At that time, Manchester City players thought it was a foul, but the referee was indifferent, so Lampard took the opportunity to complete a very high-quality shot.

Elano lay on the ground and didn't get up, which made Manchester City's coaching bench nervous, for fear that the core midfielder would be injured.

Elano is not a particularly qualified midfield organizer, but he is already the best player in this Manchester City midfield organization...he really cannot be injured.

Otherwise, Manchester City's offensive routine is too simple, and it is easy to be targeted by the opponent.

Fortunately, after Elano sat on the ground and complained to the referee, he got up from the ground and seemed to be fine.

But this still worries Mark Bowen, an assistant coach.There is no problem this time, but it does not mean that there will be no problem in the future. If Chelsea continue to play like this, Manchester City will definitely have players injured.

That's why he thinks that this game should be given up... He knew that Chelsea would definitely not let it go when they met Manchester City...

If Manchester City sends substitute players, even if someone is injured, the loss and impact on the team will be minimal.

But Benitez wanted to listen to Rong Guang, and almost dispatched all the main players... Who is the head coach?Rong Guang is just a player. Isn't it the head coach Benitez who decides who can play and who can't?

But Benitez was unmoved by Mark Bowen's concerns.

In his opinion, it is not a bad thing for Chelsea players to attack so fiercely.

The Chelsea players are clearly surrounded by a rage that will consume their sanity...

Manchester City originally played defensively and counterattacked, so why not let them attack?Since they dare to press to the front of our penalty area to grab, then we dare to counterattack them!
Burning rage?

Let someone over there put out the fire for them.

※※※

Guus Hiddink is not pleased that his players are getting a lot of chances.Because none of these chances turned into goals.

Football games are all about results. If you don't score a goal, what's the use of your offensive?

This does not mean that Chelsea has suppressed Manchester City. You must know what Manchester City likes?It's just a counterattack!
But he can't control these players.It's very simple, his tactics are definitely not arranged like this. He will never let the team's defense line be so high when facing the glorious Manchester City...

This is the move made by the Chelsea players who were dazzled by anger.

After that game, he not only upset the boss Abramovich, but also lost the support and trust of the players.

In other words, he has little prestige in the team.

So the players would directly bypass him and make such a move, so they don't want it.

Hiddink does not expect to renew his contract with the club after the end of the season. He just hopes to at least leave the team with a championship before leaving to prove that he is not as incompetent as the media said.

But now it seems...it's really difficult.

A head coach who has lost control of the team is still talking about winning the championship?
Even if he got away with passing Manchester City, could he beat the winner of Manchester United and Everton in the final?
※※※

Although Lampard's long shot did not score, it greatly boosted the morale and confidence of the team.

Chelsea's players now believe they can indeed beat Manchester City at home, in their own way.

At the same time, the Chelsea fans in the stands are also very happy. The atmosphere at home is very warm, which is much better than the last time the two sides played against each other in the league.

That was also Chelsea's home game, but because of Chelsea's conservative tactics, Stamford Bridge was very quiet.

Although Chelsea's tactics were not that aggressive when Mourinho was there, they were still very sharp defensively and offensively.And when facing a team like Manchester City, he has never been so stubborn.

What's more, in the end, they defended with such a low profile and lost the game. It is not difficult to understand the anger of Chelsea fans.

Amidst the cheers of the Chelsea fans, the Chelsea players cheered up and continued to attack Manchester City's goal. They aggressively pressed in the frontcourt and continued to prevent Manchester City from even passing halftime.

It looked like, as Mortensen put it, a goal could happen at any moment...

Mortensen was right.

※※※

Chelsea ended a wave of offensive and it was Manchester City's turn to attack.

Chelsea's players did not all withdraw, but retained a part of their troops to surround Manchester City's players with the ball in the frontcourt.

With this, they can create some opportunities in the frontcourt.

Chelsea has been able to play against Manchester City from the beginning of the game until now, and it is also because of this.

This is considered a successful tactic.

But this time, something seemed different.

Manchester City did not pass the ball backwards from the back, they sent the football directly to the front.

Center defender Kompany made a long diagonal pass and passed the football to the wing.

And it was Rong Guang who caught the ball on the wing.

He came wide and stopped Kompany's long ball.

When he got the ball, he saw Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole, who was already in front of him.

Rong Guang didn't pretend to make some fake moves, and then made a meaningless cross.

After he controlled the football, his body suddenly thrust forward, which was a posture to break through.

Ashley Cole didn't dare to neglect, staring at the football under Rong Guang's feet to see where he was going.

Rong Guang used the outer instep of his right foot to push the football to the bottom line, which meant to go to the bottom line.

So Ashley Cole quickly turned around and went to the baseline.

But just as he adjusted his center of gravity, he saw Rong Guang's right foot kick back the football that had already flown to the bottom line!

Ox tail!
As soon as this idea appeared in his mind, the football slipped between his legs!
He was startled, and wanted to turn his body to chase the ball, but he couldn't adjust his center of gravity, and his inertia made him fall backwards!

At the same time, Rong Guang passed by the left side of his body, caught up with the football, and broke into the penalty area!

"Beautiful breakthrough! Rong is here!"

Seeing Rongguang break through, Chelsea's penalty area was in chaos. Almost all defensive players rushed towards Rongguang, and goalkeeper Petr Cech also rushed towards the near corner—Rongguang is the most threatening player. They keep this in mind, so any action by Rongguang will easily cause them to overreact...

Just when the encirclement was about to take shape, the football got out from the gap of the encirclement - Rongguang passed the ball!

He didn't choose to come by himself, but passed the ball!

The football flew to the blank area in the middle of the goal against the turf!
Cech watched the football pass to the center, he quickly pushed the goal post with his hand, and then turned around and rushed!

But it was still too late, Robinho, who suddenly slanted into the middle from the ribs, swept the football from Rongguang into the goal!

This time there is no empty door to enter!
"GOOOOOOOOOAL!! Robinho!! He gave City the lead!"
