Chapter 162 The Society Shield Cup

After the ten-day training camp ended on August 8, Mourinho announced the two-day holiday for the whole team. After this holiday, Chelsea will compete with Arsenal for the first championship of the new season.

The venue for the new season's Shelter Cup is Newcastle's home stadium, St. James' Park. However, for the Shelter Cup in England, there has been a so-called curse in the past few seasons, that is, as long as they win the Shelter Cup, they will miss the Premier League championship in the new season.Arsenal was the last champion of the Social Shield Cup, and Chelsea was the champion of the Premier League in the 04-05 season. This result also allowed the so-called Social Shield Cup curse to continue to have an impact.

And the most peculiar thing is that Chelsea and Arsenal will face off in the Shelter Cup this time.

Taking advantage of the vacation, Chen Xiao quickly found a house in London with the help of Lampard, but this time it was different from Mainz in that it was no longer renting a house this time. Under the leadership of a local tycoon like Lampard, Chen Xiao bought a small villa in London that was not too big. Although it couldn’t compare with those luxurious villas, the surrounding environment was very good, and the most important thing was that it was not far from the club.

After finishing the residence, Chen Xiao stayed at home quietly and rested for two days. The team assembled again and headed to Newcastle together.

The time soon came to August 8th. At this time, the St. James Stadium was full of opportunities. The collision between the two top teams not only attracted the fans of the two teams, but also attracted countless neutral fans. The value of the team must be high, so the performance of such a player is naturally attractive enough. Of course, how many people are expecting the two to perform poorly, only God knows.

Before the start of the game, the FA arranged some performances as usual.

Then at the end of the performance, the starting players of the two teams also stepped into the court under the leadership of the referee.

Chelsea's starting lineup for this game is: goalkeeper Petr Cech, four defenders are Johnson, Terry, Carvalho, Ferreira, double midfielders Lampard and Aixin, left and right wingers are Robben and Chen Xiao, and forward forward Shevchenko.

Arsenal's starting lineup is: goalkeeper Lehmann, back four is Clichy, Gallas, Toure, Eboue, midfielder is Rosicky, Cesc Fabregas, Silva, Hleb, forwards are Henry and Van Persie.

Although Wenger and Mourinho said in the pre-match interviews that the outcome of the game is not important, but in the game, the two old hermaphrodites unanimously came up with their strongest lineup. After the duel last season, the two old enemies, Ferguson and Wenger, had been fighting each other. Neo.

In addition, during the summer transfer period, Chen Xiao won the battle against Mourinho and immediately became the main target of the two.

So in this game, Wenger secretly vowed to give this little translator a little color.

Soon at the referee's whistle, the new season's Shedun Cup competition officially began.

Regarding Mourinho's new formation, Wenger chose to stabilize his defense line cautiously after the opening, but as expected of an enemy, Mourinho's choice was the same as Wenger's.

Therefore, within 10 minutes after the opening of the two teams, the scene of the game was very dull, and the people watching were drowsy.

"Old guy, I knew you would be so careful, let's see who survives who?" Mourinho turned his head to look at Wenger, thinking to himself.

Coincidentally, when Mourinho turned his head to look at Wenger, Wenger also turned his head to look at Mourinho as if there was a sense, and the eyes of the two met in the air, full of murderous intent.

In the 18th minute of the game, the first turning point appeared.

After a few rounds of probing, Arsenal began to increase the intensity of some attacks. After Cesc Fabregas cooperated with Silva and the retreating Van Persie near the center circle, he finally passed the ball to Rosicky on the wing. Rosicky tried to break through Ferreira forcibly, and then made a cross.

Although Ferreira was a little embarrassed in dealing with Rosicky's breakthrough, he did not lose his position. He kept pestering Rosicky so that he couldn't make a pass, and then Rosicky was intercepted by Aixin who came to help defend.A long pass found Chen Xiao who was rushing forward, and Chelsea had a chance to counterattack.

After Chen Xiao judged where the football will fall, he quickly occupied a favorable position. Hleb was blocked by Chen Xiaosheng. Facing the incoming ball, Chen Xiao suddenly leaned back, then volleyed the ball with his right foot, and immediately turned around and passed Hleb.

Hleb, who was trying to fight back, was thrown away by Chen Xiao almost instantly.

Hleb could only grit his teeth and chase after him, hoping that his teammates could slow down Chen Xiao's speed.

But unfortunately, Hleb's expectations fell through. Chen Xiao's speed is very scary after he gets up. Players who have played against Chen Xiao in the Bundesliga have a deep understanding of this. Arsenal's left-back Eboue has been facing Chen Xiao's impact. Chen Xiao has been keeping a high concentration. Facing the opponent, Chen Xiao kicked the ball vigorously and then accelerated, simply and rudely passing the opponent.

At this moment, there were only two central defenders and the goalkeeper left in front of Chen Xiao, and Gallas, Toure, and Lehmann all thought that Chen Xiao would continue to break through, so facing Chen Xiao's high-speed advance, the two of them did not choose to pounce, but occupied a favorable position. But what surprised everyone was that Chen Xiao, who was dribbling the ball at high speed, suddenly took a long-range shot, a shot about 35 meters away from the goal, as if Chen Xiao was announcing his arrival to everyone.

The football is like lightning, it has come to Lehman before he can fully react. Chen Xiao's shot is a combination of pure speed and strength. The flight path of the football is like a straight line, directly into the goal.

1-0, Chen Xiao scored his first goal in an official game for Chelsea, and this goal also gave Chelsea the lead.
