heir to the red devil

Chapter 458 His Counterattack

"Lewandowski's header was punched by Courtois! It fell outside the penalty area!"

"Lampard slapped the horse to catch up, and he shot a powerful long-range shot straight to the dead corner of the goal!"

"The ball hit the goal post! It bounced off the baseline! Courtois didn't react at all! If the ball was a little bit farther than the goal, then Lampard would have opened the scoring!"

Not only Morris on Sky TV felt it was a pity, but even the Manchester United fans in the audience felt it was a pity. The home fans burst out with huge sighs, regretting that the goal was not scored.

Kintag stood up when he saw Lampard was about to shoot, but when the ball bounced off the baseline, Kintag sat down again.

"What a pity." Jin Taige shook his head.

Scholes comforted him: "However, Frank was in such a good state at the beginning, it seems that this game is easy to play."

At the same time, on the coaching bench of the visiting team, Mourinho's heart tightened just now.He was really afraid that Lampard would break the goal at the beginning of the game. In that case, his defensive counterattack tactics would be meaningless.

At this time, the game continued.De Bruyne gave Lampard a thumbs up: "Frank, that shot just now was so beautiful!"

Lampard shook his head and didn't reply.

The game continues.

The Chelsea players were also taken aback after Lampard's long-range shot posed a threat.They didn't expect Manchester United to enter the state so quickly. They almost lost the ball in less than 1 minute of the opening.Captain Terry shouted to his teammates: "Pay attention to defense! Strengthen the press in the midfield! Don't let them get the chance to attack so easily!"

In the next period of time, Chelsea defended tightly. They increased their defensive strength and coverage in the midfield position. In addition to Drogba, even Hazard and other players who were ready to fight back frequently returned to defense. Help the defense.

In the Manchester United team, Lewandowski was like a steel nail in the penalty area, piercing into the hinterland of the Blues, making Terry dare not move easily; and Griezmann's flexible running position made Chelsea players very distressed. Take away two or three defensive players from Chelsea, creating opportunities for midfielders such as Mahrez and Lampard to advance.

And the best player in Manchester United's team in this game has to be Lampard.Although Lampard has only joined Manchester United for a few months, he has quickly become the core of Manchester United's midfield. Under his leadership, Manchester United's attack line is organized in an orderly manner, and the offensive rhythm is much better than before. , He not only brought more experience to Manchester United, but also gave Manchester United a lot of help to these young people.

In this game, Lampard frequently moved forward, cooperated with the midfielders and created many offensive opportunities in a row.Mourinho couldn't sit still off the court. He greeted Matic loudly and asked others to stare at Lampard, so the strong Matic gave up his offensive attributes and stared at Lampard closely. .Even so, Lampard still got several good chances to attack the goal.

Mourinho didn't dare to neglect, he let Fabregas also strengthen his running in defense, and helped Matic defend Lampard at the right time.

In this game, Cesc Fabregas performed very mediocre. He did not play a role at all in the midfield. On the one hand, this has something to do with the team's tactical play, and on the other hand, it has something to do with Fabregas' personal state.Since Xiaofa joined Chelsea, his state has not met Mourinho's expectations.

In fact, since Xiaofa left Arsenal and switched to Barcelona, ​​his peak state has gone forever. The famous young rookie and world-class midfielder in those days has now disappeared from everyone.Although his strength is not bad now, he is far from the former Arsenal captain.Especially after coming to Chelsea, he bears the title of Lampard's heir, which makes him even more stressed, and he is a little bit restrained.

Especially in this game, under the excellent performance of the opponent Lampard, it seems that Xiaofa is in a poor state.

With 32 minutes to go, Lampard got the ball.With his back to the goal, leaning against Matic, he suddenly passed the ball to Kroos, then turned around Matic, and ran towards Chelsea's penalty area!

At this time, Kroos rubbed the ball knowingly, and the ball flew over Matic's head and landed at Lampard's feet. Lampard continued to drive forward with the ball!

At this time, it was too late for Matic to return to the defense, and Fabregas was standing in front of Lampard.

Xiaofa gritted her teeth secretly: I will definitely not let you pass the midfield!

At this time, Xiaofa rushed up to meet Lampard's footsteps. He knew very well that Lampard is not a player who is good at dribbling, and as he is getting older, his physical fitness will inevitably decline seriously.As long as he can push forward, he will definitely be able to steal the ball, and then counterattack by himself, maybe he can score a key goal.If so, then you are the hero of this game!

Be the hero of the game and win against Frank Lampard!
Thinking of this, Xiaofa was very excited. He strode forward to Lampard, trying to lean on Lampard with his body, and then stretched out his foot to steal the ball.

But Xiaofa thought wrong. He had just attached Lampard, and before he stretched out his foot to steal the ball, he felt a very strong force coming from Lampard's body. This was muscle strength, which made Xiaofa Suddenly feel very strenuous.

The 36-year-old Lampard is still so strong!

Before Xiaofa had time to feel emotional, he was knocked aside by Lampard, lost his position in an instant, and fell to the ground!
"Lampard missed Chelsea's two midfielders Matic and Cesc Fabregas in a row, which is amazing!" Morris explained loudly, "I didn't expect that 36-year-old Lampard is still the same as when he was 26 years old. Skillful and physically strong! He's on the edge of the box now and there's no one guarding him!"

"Cahill came out of the penalty area and blocked Lampard's path! What should Lampard do next?"

"Lampard wasn't reckless, he sent the ball to the right!"

"At this time, Chelsea's midfielder has been passed by Lampard, and Chelsea's defenders are defending Lewandowski and Griezmann. Cahill is also attracted by Lampard! On the right of Manchester United, Deb Lowe is driving at high speed and catches the ball! He shoots the ball!"

"The goal was scored!!! Manchester United led Chelsea 1-0, and they took the lead at home! It was Chelsea's old minister and Mourinho's abandoned player-De Bruyne who scored the key goal! His shot Like a meteor lightning, it crossed the turf of Old Trafford, flew into the goal, hit the net hard, and hit Mourinho's heart hard!"
