Jagged Wings

Chapter 186 Tenacious Chelsea
"Chelsea captured Arsenal! They scored in just 4 minutes. It was an exciting and wonderful start! Mourinho's defensive counterattack tactics have paid off, and now they have more capital to defend against counterattacks! Arsenal What can Nan do?"

After scoring the goal, Drogba rushed towards Robben excitedly. Although Robben's assists were not counted, most of the goals should be counted by Robben himself. The two hugged tightly with other teammates.

Drogba, who is 1.8 meters tall, has always been troubled by his low scoring rate. Some people even suggested that he should play as a midfielder.But this season, under the stimulation of Shevchenko's arrival, Drogba finally broke out.In all competitions this season, 27 goals have been scored!
In the league scorer list, Drogba also ranked first with 22 goals, followed by Reyes with 20 goals.

When Wenger saw Drogba jumping high in his penalty area, he closed his eyes and couldn't bear to watch any more.Although Eboue is also very good physically, he is far behind Drogba in consciousness!

After scoring the goal, Drogba was quite active. He originally had a very wide range of activities, but now he is even galloping all over the field, not sparing his physical strength!
The home fans booed Drogba, telling him this is the Emirates Stadium, don't be arrogant!
Although they are behind now, there are still 10 minutes behind Arsenal to get back the score!

Chelsea shrank back, Arsenal immediately pressed up and bombarded around Chelsea's goal!
Gilberto, who conceded the ball due to his own mistakes, was quite active in the midfield. He suddenly made a direct pass in the middle and gave it to Fabregas in front.

Facing Essien who was defending him, Fabregas seemed to ignore him.Reyes beat Essien in the last game, which made Fabregas look down on him a little. He planned to break through from the other side after a feint, but was blocked by Essien.Essien's strong body almost made Fabregas lose his center of gravity!

so hard!

Only then did Fabregas realize how difficult it was for Reyes to defeat Essien?

Fabregas thought for a while, no longer delaying the time, and passed the football back to Gilberto.

As the captain, Gilberto was intercepted by Robben, and he was looking for time to make up for it.Seeing Essien being held back by Fabregas, Gilberto took two steps forward, faced the football passed back by Fabregas, and rubbed it with his left foot directly. The football passed the top of the Chelsea players and went to the left fly away.

Reyes knows how to plug in at high speed!
He unloaded the football before Chelsea right-back Ferreira.At the same time, he was going to cut to the inside. Of course, Ferreira would not let him get his wish, and immediately stuck his body in the inside line ahead of time.

Unexpectedly, Reyes turned around, but made a sudden stop, and then knocked the football to the outside with the heel of his right foot, throwing Ferreira away at once!

After the breakthrough, Reyes made a pass, and the tall and strong Adebayor attracted the attention of almost all Chelsea defenders!There is no way, this Adebayor is known as a "little monster", and Chelsea have to pay attention to it!
But he just feinted and jumped high, but deliberately missed the football!
Torres plugged in behind and then a dive bombing, the football flew towards the goal!
As the best goalkeeper in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons.Cech will never agree to let this goal go in.He jumped up while moving back, and then hit the football out of the baseline with a single palm!
"It's such a pity! It's a great cross from the side and outflanks the center! It's a pity that Cech's performance is very good! As the best goalkeeper in the Premier League for three times, he is thinking of a world-class goalkeeper!"

Arsenal's corner kick was taken by Hleb, he hoisted the football into the penalty area, Torres rushed, grabbed the front point, and a powerful lion shook his head!Cech jumped up and raised his hand reflexively, but he didn't stop the football at all, because the distance was too close and the speed was too fast!What he just did was purely unconscious—he wasn't trying to block the ball.

But to the regret of all Arsenal fans, the football hit the crossbar and bounced back!
When the Chelsea people were about to breathe a sigh of relief, Gilberto, who was guarding outside the penalty area, appeared in front of the football.

He was waiting for this moment!
Before the ball hit the ground, Cesc Fabregas took a step back to make room, then swung his left leg on the spot, and volleyed vigorously against the flying football!
The football clings to the ground and rolls quickly towards the goal.This kind of shot is fast, powerful, and although the angle is not tricky, if someone accidentally touches it in the penalty area, it will immediately change its direction.

What the goalkeeper hates most is this kind of shot!
Cech's head hurts, but he still has to keep his eyes on the ball, and at the same time make a save. If the football flies to the left, he can only pounce to the left.I can only pray that no one will touch me during the flight of the football.

What are you afraid of!
He jumped to the left, and the football flew to the left. Just when Cech thought he was going to catch the football, he didn't know who in the crowd stretched out his foot. The football immediately changed direction and rolled towards the middle of the goal. go!
Unexpectedly, Cech, who fell to the ground, took advantage of his height of 1.9 meters [-]. Although his upper body fell down, his right foot was lifted up, and then the tip of his toe touched the football!

The football finally rubbed against the post and rolled out of the bottom line!

The first half came to the end like this under Arsenal's mad attack and Chelsea's cold arrow.Mourinho couldn't see the expression, but Wenger was very unhappy.

"What did I say? Don't lose the ball, don't lose the ball, don't lose the ball! What about your ears?" In the locker room, Wenger had a bad face and spread his hands.

"Having played so many times, Robben's speed, Drogba's strength, haven't you paid enough attention to it? They are Chelsea, not Portsmouth, Southampton and other relegation teams...you should Treat them as opponents more important than anyone else!"

Walcott in the corner lowered his head and drew circles: What happened to Southampton?That's my home team...

"Strengthen the defense in the second half. The four defenders are not allowed to step forward and assist easily. In this game, if we want to save the defeat, we must first not concede the ball. Remember, we must not concede the ball again!"

Today, football games are becoming more and more utilitarian, sometimes a goal can determine the life and death of a team!

On the other side, although the team led by one goal in the first half, Mourinho did not look relaxed at all. He still looked at the resting players with a serious face.

"Although the lead in the first half was good, I still have to criticize. You showed some underestimation in the subsequent games, which is very bad! You have also seen and experienced Arsenal's offense. I think I don’t need to say anything, do you? If you maintain that mentality in the second half, then sooner or later we will lose the ball.”

"We will continue to defend in the second half, and of course we need to counterattack! But we are leading now, so we must first ensure that the defense is stable! There are 45 minutes in the second half, so concentrate on me!"

As the second half began, Chelsea continued to stick to their counter-attacking tactics, while Arsenal followed through on exactly what Wenger had told them at half-time.Offense is offense, defense is defense, although the offense is fierce.But they didn't rush forward. The four defenders strictly guarded the backcourt and didn't give Chelsea many chances to counterattack.

Drogba felt the pressure from Arsenal's defense, Senderos had outstanding awareness, Toure was physically strong, Clichy and Eboue had good speed.As a single striker, he often plays one-on-two or even one-on-three!

Robben's speed is limited by the combination of Reyes and Clichy on the left.Reyes no longer squatted and waited for the ball, but followed Robben's footsteps, coupled with Chrissy, leaving Robben helpless!

In this case, Chelsea's offensive was not strong in the first place, and they all relied on catching Arsenal's mistakes to fight back. Now that they have even seen a few chess pieces on which to counterattack, the situation is gradually going against them!
One ebbs and another, Arsenal's offensive is getting stronger and stronger!

Fabregas passed Essien once again relying on his personal skills, and then continued to break forward. He seemed to be planning to force a breakthrough from the middle. Unfortunately, his dribbling speed was a bit slow, and Essien came from behind to re-entangle him.

Essien was also a little bit annoyed. In the last match, Reyes won the match, and this game was played by this kid under 20 years old?
Essien's anger grew from his heart, and evil grew from his gallbladder.With a force in his hand, Fabregas was pushed to the ground.

The referee's whistle sounded, and naturally there were huge boos from the Emirates Stadium.

Nothing to say, Essien received a yellow card.Mourinho jumped up from the bench, waving and cursing on the sidelines very, very emotionally.

Essien, who was carrying a yellow card, showed timidity, which made Mourinho very dissatisfied, and finally replaced him with fifteen points left in the game.He was replaced by French midfielder Diarra.
