Chapter 652 Being Targeted
Chapter 663 Being Targeted

"One to one!!! Manchester City equalized the score!!! In the No.208 minute of the first half, Manchester City disrupted the already impenetrable defense line through the breakthrough of two wingers. The cooperation of Griezmann and Dzeko opened up a gap on the right. David Luiz's rashness gave Griezmann a one-on-one chance with Petr Cech!!!"

"Of course Griezmann didn't miss such an opportunity, he passed Cech and sent the ball into the empty goal!!! What a beautiful goal!!!"

On the TV screen, this time Manchester City's attack was repeated again and again.

Although the ball passed under the feet of many people, in fact, it took about ten seconds from Hazard's passing to Griezmann's goal.

The source of everything came from Hazard's breakthrough, which was a stroke of genius. Not to mention Terry, even in the commentary booth, the commentators with better vision than Terry did not expect Hazard to make such an incredible and fast breakthrough this time.

The focus of this goal lies in two hits, one is Hazard's breakthrough, he cuts inside, changes direction, and smashes the ball!
It's a show of genius to do this series of moves in quick motion.

And then there was the cooperation between Griezmann and Dzeko.

Dzeko's chest ball gave Griezmann a chance, and his quick pass was also an important reason for David Luiz's misjudgment!

Gao Bo applauded Dzeko from the sidelines.

He likes players like Dzeko, he has height, he has a header, he has good feet, and most importantly, he is a team player, he can create goals for his teammates.

In such a positional attack, Dzeko's role may be much better than Vardy.

Vardy is still more suitable for use when playing counterattacks.

Relying on this chest to make the ball, Dzeko's ranking in Gao Bo's heart has surpassed Vardy and has become the team's number one center forward.

With the two sharp knives of Hazard and Griezmann, Dzeko is the best wingman!

Mourinho looked a little ugly.

Manchester City scored a goal, and it was a chance created through a breakthrough, which was completely beyond his expectations.

Manchester City was also trying to make a breakthrough before. At that time, Mourinho thought it was just Gao Boqian's lack of skills, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face now.

Mourinho thought about the whole process of scoring just now.

Is it because of luck?
Mourinho looked at Gao Bo not far away.

Even if it was luck, Manchester City also scored, and their two wingers really have a very strong breakthrough ability!
Mourinho had to be vigilant about this.

Amid boos at Stamford Bridge, the game continued.

After the game restarted, the scene changed.

Chelsea has strengthened their interception in the midfield, and they are no longer willing to give Manchester City the opportunity to easily overwhelm Chelsea to attack.

Chelsea's players are very experienced. In the backcourt and frontcourt, Terry, Lampard and others are already experienced veterans.

After they lost the ball, they realized that Manchester City must not be allowed to continue to play such a breakthrough.

Chelsea's defense has become more pressing and at the same time has become more mobile.

The two sides fought fiercely in the midfield, and Chelsea played very tough against Manchester City in the midfield.

In terms of physical confrontation, Chelsea has an advantage in the midfield, with Ramires, Mikel, Kanter, and Lampard, while Manchester City has Eriksson, David Silva, and Casemiro.

Casemiro is physically strong, but David Silva and Eriksson's physical confrontation ability is not good, and Manchester City is also at a disadvantage in terms of the number of midfielders.

But Manchester City also has its own way.

Griezmann is back in midfield, while Hazard is in the middle.

In this way, Manchester City has the same number of midfielders as Chelsea, and Manchester City's way to deal with Chelsea is to pass the ball!
Manchester City passed the ball and tried to avoid direct physical confrontation with Chelsea to avoid conceding the ball.

In the frontcourt, Hazard's position has become free. He is no longer limited to the left, but can cruise on both sides.

Griezmann's return to the midfield also gave Manchester City a new outlet point, and at the same time, it also made Manchester City's midfield run faster!
In the 306th minute of the game, David Silva passed the ball straight to Dzeko!

Dzeko got the ball in the penalty area and gave it to Hazard!
Hazard dunks David Luiz with his right foot, and then David Luiz turns and sticks out.

Then people only saw the football go out of the baseline and Hazard fell to the ground.

There was an uproar in the stands.

Chelsea fans certainly thought Hazard was diving.

But the referee ignored everyone, and he waved his hand to signal Hazard to get up.

No penalties!

But no flopping either!
Hazard and David Luiz had contact in the penalty area, but whether it was a foul or not, the scale is in the hands of the referee.

And the referee did not give Manchester City a corner kick, he pointed to the goal, which was Chelsea's goal kick.

Of course Gao Bo quit, and he immediately protested loudly on the sidelines: "This is a foul!!! The Brazilian has done it!! How could this not be a foul!!!"

"Dive!! That guy is a flop!! The referee!! This should be a yellow card!! Even a red card is not too much!!"

On the other side, the Portuguese Mourinho is also chattering.

Hazard, who was sitting on the ground, also opened his arms. He thought that David Luiz tripped him.

The TV replays couldn't tell whether David Luiz had stabbed the ball or tripped Hazard.

Because there are so many people in the restricted area and it is very dense, the lens of the camera is partially blocked by the crowd.

In short, whether there was a foul or not, only the parties involved know.

And David Luiz also gestured at Hazard angrily: "You are a villain who likes to dive!!!"

Terry also ran over: "Don't make such a small move in front of me!! Boy!!!"

Hazard stood up immediately, and he retorted: "Remember how I beat you, old guy!!"

The two stared at each other in the penalty area, but neither of them got started.

Later, when the two were pulled away by their teammates, they still had some regrets.

"The old guy almost couldn't help but get started."

Hazard lowered his head and whispered to Griezmann.

If Terry intends to make a shot, Hazard will definitely fall directly, which will definitely bring Terry a red card.

The reverse is also true.

On the court, similar provocations abound, and whoever can't help it will be unlucky.

Terry is naturally experienced and will not be easily fooled.

Hazard, however, was paying the same attention, so the trash talk didn't work for either of them.

Terry looked at the sidelines, and there was still boos in the stands.

Mourinho and Terry made eye contact, and the two nodded slightly.

Terry stared at Hazard, one of City's sharp knives.

If there is no Hazard on the field, or Griezmann Manchester City's offensive threat will undoubtedly be greatly weakened.

Everyone knows that Manchester City is walking on two legs this season, and the most important tactic of Gao Bo's team is to create opportunities for both sides.

Terry stared at Hazard, thinking in his mind.

It's a pity, this kid seems to be quite smart, it would be great if he could be irritated.
