Midfielder.

Chapter 475

A complete victory in the league and an undefeated Champions League. If such a result is placed on other teams, it may be a bit shocking, but it seems that there is nothing abnormal when it is placed on the head of Chelsea.

That is a herd of animals, and this is the truest interpretation of Chelsea by most England fans.

Especially the two beasts Mourinho and Lin Yi, as long as they are there, everything will be out of order.

At least in the eyes of those media, such achievements are nothing to brag about, unless these guys can really successfully defend the Champions League, otherwise, victory is indeed too common for them.

However, after the Barcelona team is settled, even the bookmakers may have adjusted Chelsea's winning odds to a record low, but at this juncture, Chelsea lost in the league.

And they didn't lose to strong teams like Arsenal or Manchester United, but fell to the unknown Sunderland team. Although the score of zero to one was not big, the result was amazing enough.

Many people have been talking about whether the second series is going to win the championship, but after they won Barcelona in the away game, they broke the undefeated gold in the league, which made many Spaniards very happy.

But Mourinho seemed to have nothing to say about such a failure. Even in the press conference after the game, he did not show any expression of frustration, but said lightly, "We lost."

This is the end?Many reporters are still waiting anxiously for Mourinho to go crazy, because it's not like these guys haven't seen what happened on the field. It can be said that Chelsea was overshadowed in this game.

With a double-match schedule in a week, plus just a deadly match against Barcelona, ​​in the league, Mourinho is on a full-substitute lineup, but even with a full-substitute lineup, they can still surpass their opponents.

But this paradoxical game process was confusing. Less than 1 minute into the game, Essien, who had returned from the African Cup, used his strong body to forcefully bring down the opponent in the midfield, and the referee immediately whistled.

There is nothing to say about this foul, but no one could have expected that the referee showed Essien a red card without hesitation. Basically everyone was stunned at this moment.

Including the members of the Sunderland team, they didn't know what was wrong with the referee, but the red card was held high enough for many people to see, and they didn't intend to take it back despite the pleas of the people around them.

Mourinho did not complain on the sidelines this time, only Brito was arguing with the fourth official.

But the fate of the red card cannot be changed, even though the fourth official also looked confused.

A red card, one less player, although it was such a weird lack of a main midfielder at the beginning, Chelsea's offense was still like a tide, Cassano and Anelka took turns to attack each other.

But Sunderland's goal seems to be protected by magic. No matter how fierce Chelsea's offensive is, the shot will either fly out of the goal or hit the post and crossbar impartially.

Chelsea took a total of [-] shots, but the damn shots always fell short at the last minute, and Sunderland scored once in the whole game, but this shot just got into the net.

"God's will." Mourinho muttered softly after the game ended.

However, both Mourinho and Lin Yi in the stands could tell that this was absolutely not God's will. Apart from damn luck, the referee's law enforcement standards determined many things.

However, Mourinho did not fire unscrupulously after the game, although he was never afraid of causing trouble.

But at this time, he understood why. Losing may be due to luck, but the Premier League absolutely doesn’t like to see a game that goes all the way. If Chelsea can win the championship with a complete victory, that would be a weird thing. Once there is this level of domination in any league, it is definitely not a good thing.

Although it cannot be said that this was instigated by the Premier League management, at least Chelsea's winning streak really made many people feel uncomfortable. After Arsenal's unbeaten championship, there is no need to have a record.

Mourinho can understand what is behind the penalty scale in this game, which may be an unspoken rule.

The Kenyon guy was clamoring to trouble the referee, but Mourinho chose to remain silent.

You will never win this kind of lawsuit, not to mention that even if you get rid of this referee like you got rid of Fricks, what can you get in exchange?Anyway, Chelsea's point advantage is enough for them to squander.

However, Mourinho's silence does not mean that he does not understand the tricks in it. At least his few words, which are not salty, can also let those who are eager for Chelsea to lose understand that he is not afraid of trouble.

Just like Essien's agitated performance when he was sent off, many people think that this guy should be punished additionally, but Chelsea still act first, and they don't want others to take advantage of the loopholes.

Regarding Essien's misconduct, the disciplinary department of the Premier League just issued a trivial fine. For Essien, who is making money every day, it is like going out to refuel the car.

This kind of punishment of swinging a big stick and falling gently also indirectly shows that some people feel that they lack confidence.

But such a defeat may let the players who are a little bit smug know that they are not invincible, and if their luck is bad enough, they will stumble on weak teams.

After the game, Mourinho's face was so calm externally, but internally, he also publicly emphasized his attitude towards the future games, over-relaxing himself, and he will definitely suffer in the top league competitions.

It's just that they chose such an opponent to end Chelsea's winning streak. I really don't know what they think. Mourinho didn't say anything, but this will not prevent those reporters from writing scribbles in the newspapers.

Conspiracy theories, buying referees, anyway, all kinds of weird speculations can be put on the newspapers.

But the Sunderland team, which won the game, didn't feel any excitement, because when Lin Yi was interviewed by reporters, he had already said, "The next time we meet, I will recover the debt."

This kid is not tall and not strong, but as long as it is what he said, he will always fulfill it.

There is no need to say anything more. Lin Yi's ability to let go of this sentence means that he has taken this loss to heart. Think about what happened to Newcastle United and Manchester City. Being targeted by this kid is absolutely terrible.

This three-pointer is definitely a reminder of fear, but compared with Lin Yi's words, the curse of the bookmaker after the game may be more serious. They may never have dreamed that Chelsea would lose to Sunderland.

But there will always be unrepentant gamblers who want to challenge the high difficulty, and this time someone actually gambled right, and the gaming company has to worry about this unexpected loss for a long time. The amount is not large, but it is very depressing.

However, a league defeat did not make teams like Manchester United and Arsenal happy. After all, Chelsea had too many leads. Such a small loss is definitely not a heartbreak.

At least their gap in the standings is still double digits, and looking at the Chelsea players who gritted their teeth and exited, they may not lose any games easily. The players were a little angry, as if it didn't make any sense at all.

And in the next League Cup, Chelsea immediately made those who were expecting their losing streak suffer. Middlesbrough was directly blasted into a pile of powder by Chelsea's mad attack in the League Cup.

It was [-]-[-], and it was [-]-[-] at halftime. This was even when Lin Yi and half of the main players were absent. With the strong performance of Ribery and Cassano alone, these guys could already win wildly.

Ribery even scored three goals in this game, this guy who Mourinho regards as a surprise soldier.

Finally, he started to take root in the Chelsea team with his performance, and by the way, he became the focus of Domenech's old guy's notebook, and entering the national team became just around the corner.

Winning Middlesbrough and advancing to the final, Chelsea's strong momentum in the League Cup has gradually approached their first possible trophy, and their opponent is only Tottenham.

Tottenham, which is still struggling in the middle of the league and trying to squeeze into the European places, does not know how many cards it will have against Chelsea. Many commentators and fans have already given the trophy to Chelsea in advance.

Regarding such speculation, Mourinho was noncommittal, but he never stopped preparing for the game. I wonder if Tottenham, as a team in London, will feel a little nervous when it sees its opponents in the same city.

At least for Chelsea, Mourinho will not easily lose to his rivals in the same city, let alone rule the Premier League, at least in the PK battle in London, whether it is Arsenal or Tottenham, Mourinho will They will not give each other a chance, and no one will take the initiative to bow their heads in the war of seizing fans' resources.

Tottenham's chances of winning the League Cup may not even be known to them, but it is clear that Chelsea must be planning more than just this trophy. In the FA Cup, they also successfully advanced to the semi-finals. It was poor Bolton who fell under their iron heels for the first time, and it was also devastated.

Although not as exaggerated as Middlesbrough's [-]-[-] score, the [-]-[-] score was enough to embarrass Bolton. They also failed to withstand the powerful impact of half of Chelsea's main lineup.

It was Ribery who enjoyed the game, and this time it was Lampard and Drogba who caught the opportunity, especially Drogba, this guy finally broke his fast again, and he scored three when he started eating meat. This efficiency is really not ordinary.

The League Cup final, the FA Cup semi-final, compared with that loss, it seems that many teams subconsciously think that it is better to let these guys continue to win in the league.

This time is good, the battle for the FA Cup and the League Cup will become more brutal, especially for Manchester United. Now they can only concentrate all their energy on the FA Cup, or they will really be empty-handed. The unexpected exit from the World Cup made Ferguson very annoyed all the time, and no one dared to provoke him.

The game against Barcelona made many people see the horror of Chelsea's offense, but if it is reflected in specific statistics, the effect may be more intuitive, such as their rapid progress in the scorer list, Drogba occupies the top spot, and five others also entered the top ten.

Anelka, Drogba, Crespo, Lampard, Gerrard, plus Robben, six people are on the list, and Drogba can also beat Henry who has dominated the scorer list in the past two seasons And Ruud van Nistelrooy, not only amazing, but also shocking enough.

The rest of the list, in addition to Henry, the king of Highbury, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Rooney, but they can only be ranked in the embarrassing positions of eighth and ninth, and Hasselbaink is also an accident.

It broke out in an all-round way and was unstoppable. It is no longer an exaggeration to use any words to describe Chelsea.

It is no news that the two cups are approaching the trophy. In the next game against Barcelona at home, Chelsea will be able to put all their main lineup on the table.

It is a dream to win Chelsea [-]-[-], even if it is [-]-[-], it is unattainable. For Rijkaard, such a problem is insurmountable, and the result also proves it all.

It may be that Rijkaard still has self-knowledge. Before the game started, he said in an interview, "The game at Stamford Bridge is very difficult. We can only do our best."

As for the estimate of the result, Rijkaard politely declined. This guy definitely doesn't want to make such a boring prediction, because even he himself knows now that they are only 10 or [-] minutes away from being eliminated. , If you want to reverse at the Stamford Bridge Stadium, it is basically impossible.

However, the opponent's low-key will not let Mourinho show mercy, and he may even be able to avoid this kind of thing.

Mourinho did not put up his usual defensive lineup at home. With two goal difference in his hands and a psychological advantage, he continued to use the pure offensive lineup in the last game.

Flying on both wings, advancing in the middle, Lin Yi, Robben, and Ribery have had enough offensive addiction at Stamford Bridge, and Mourinho has the audacity to leave only three defenders behind, and the midfielder has consolidated enough weight Even if he is playing against his opponent, Mourinho has to play with a majestic atmosphere.

However, such a magnificent attack looks really enjoyable, but there are also hidden dangers, just like the breakthroughs of Messi and Ronaldinho, which often make Cech a bit in a hurry, but the whole rhythm is always under the control of Chelsea. , Occasional mistakes will not change the situation of the entire game.

After continuously delivering deadly shells in the last game, in this home matchup, Lin Yi finally made a big move. He suddenly made a cold shot from around 20 meters and hit the bottom left corner of the goal.

Valdez's sight was blocked by his teammates, and by the time he found out that the shot was scraping the turf and flying towards the goal, it was already too late, when the football plunged into the net and caused the white net to shake.

The first half lasted less than 10 minutes, and Rijkaard's team fell behind again. In this case, Barcelona could only go all out and fight the opponent. Their breakthrough before the end of the first half Among them, Messi, who has been holding back for almost 45 minutes, can be regarded as getting a chance to shoot.

Moreover, the little Argentine's shot was really tricky enough. Cech's side attack was fast enough, but it was still a bit slower than football. Barcelona equalized the score before halftime.

But such a goal was not brought about by Barcelona's recovery, but that Chelsea's offense became more violent in the second half. Lin Yi even played a mid-range breakthrough in front of Ronaldinho.

What is the effect of the two consecutive oxtail dribbles in the middle? Both Van Bommel and Mota were turned into idiots, and even the two of them even forgot about tactical fouls.

Drogba received Lin Yi's signature through ball in the penalty area, leaning on Puyol and shooting with one foot.

The distance is close enough, the angle is tricky enough, Drogba's recent feet are in the right wind, and he kicks the goal from less than seven or eight meters away.

A classic tough battle was done like this. The score of [-] to [-] almost broke Barcelona's courage to continue the game. Even Rijkaard sat back on the coach's bench after scoring the goal.

In the end, on the big screen at Stamford Bridge, the fixed score was [-]-[-]. Ronaldinho finally showed off his free kick in the second half, but Chelsea were already leading [-]-[-] at that time. As for the goal Whether they score or not will not affect the overall situation. This can only be regarded as a goal for Ronaldinho to save face, but the result will not change anymore, they lost.

The two goals of Robben and Gerrard also had the same effect, but what they destroyed was the pride of the Barcelona team. This giant team called the Dream Team [-] fell so helplessly. And this is the second year in a row. I really don't know if they regret choosing Chelsea.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world. If you choose it, you choose it, and there is no way out.

None of the Barcelona players chose to exchange jerseys with the Chelsea players after the game. For them, this knockout experience is definitely bitter. Watching their deadly rivals step over their bodies and continue to move forward, for those guys who are determined to revenge Said, really is their very painful!

But the result could not be changed. In the most intense matchup in the knockout rounds, Chelsea eliminated a stumbling block on their way with a score of [-]-[-].

This is certainly not the last one, but Chelsea, which has entered the quarter-finals of the Champions League, has become unstoppable.

Who will be the next team to come forward?Maybe even those opponents are hesitating. What kind of method should such a lunatic team use to organize them? Could it be that they are allowed to wreak havoc like this?

Only the devil knows, perhaps it is the wisest choice not to run into them at this time. . .

But whoever can hide it may really have to ask God. . .
