Legendary Godfather

One to zero, Crystal Palace takes the lead!

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene were so excited that they jumped up crazily and screamed with excitement.

This is a bit of a surprise.

Even the most optimistic Crystal Palace fans did not expect that Crystal Palace could lead Chelsea like this. After all, Chelsea is indeed relatively strong.

Moreover, from the beginning of the game to the present, Chelsea people have been leading the offense and threatening Crystal Palace's goal. Crystal Palace really seems to have no chance.

Who knew that at this time, Crystal Palace was actually in the lead.

An unexpected surprise, really an unexpected surprise!

The Crystal Palace players in the stadium were also very excited, celebrating excitedly and flocking to Pogba.

However, Tong Yi on the sidelines seemed very calm.

After all, the half game is not over yet, and Crystal Palace may not be able to win now.

Chelsea are not weak.

Tong Yi couldn't help but turn his head and look at Chelsea's coaching bench. Their head coach Benitez shouldn't be nervous at all, right?

Because after Benitez took over Chelsea, Chelsea was not the kind of team that focused on one-to-zero and emphasized not conceding goals. Chelsea now advocates offense and pursues the principle of scoring one more goal than you, so conceding goals is commonplace for them.

Benitez is very confident in his Chelsea attack.

And in his opinion, Crystal Palace is not strong enough.

Sure enough, Benitez's expression did not change at all. He looked at the court very calmly, seemingly not affected by the loss of the ball at all.

It was exactly as I expected.

To be honest, Benitez didn't really care about this conceding goal.

Because he knows the consequences of his tactics. They send so many offensive players, which naturally means they invest more in the offense. It's okay if there is a problem in the defense, as long as they can recover it in the offense.

Benitez immediately called Torres to the sidelines and gave some instructions.

Shhhhhhh!

The Chelsea fans who came from afar actually booed Benitez and Torres crazily. This was something the Crystal Palace fans did not expect and they were all shocked.

What's happening here?

Are Benitez and Torres so unpopular with Chelsea fans?

To be honest, if Torres was a Crystal Palace player, the Crystal Palace fans would not be happy to see Torres.

Torres is no longer the Torres he was at Atletico Madrid and Liverpool.

And these Torres have nothing to do with Chelsea. Why do Chelsea fans enshrine and praise you Torres? You, Torres, came to our Chelsea with a sky-high transfer fee, and were highly expected by countless Chelsea fans, and you just handed in such an answer, who can sell you?

All kinds of empty goals are not allowed to enter, just like an iron guard, we Chelsea fans are already very worried without taking action.

Restrained.

You Torres is indeed the top hero in the minds of Atletico Madrid fans, Spanish fans and Liverpool fans, and even a superhero in the minds of many fans around the world, but not here at Chelsea!

Torres put his hands on his hips and lowered his head, feeling very heavy as he listened to these boos.

To be honest, he didn't want to do this either.

He has worked very hard at Chelsea, but he just can't find his previous form. He is also anxious and helpless.

Why!

Benitez looked at Torres, patted Torres on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Take your time and recover slowly. I believe you can get back to the rhythm you had at Atletico Madrid and Liverpool earlier. Don't worry too much." , I will give you a chance. Come on!"

For Benitez, Torres is still full of gratitude.

As soon as Benitez came to Chelsea and was not used to his state, he straightened himself up and gave himself so many opportunities. Although his performance was very poor, Benitez still trusted himself and gave himself a chance. Very grateful.

Torres stared at Benitez closely and said sincerely, "Coach, don't worry, I will work harder!"

Benitez nodded firmly and said, "Come on!"

Torres also nodded firmly to Benitez, then turned around and ran into the stadium.

Looking at Torres's back, Benitez also sighed-Hey!

Torres has been in a very difficult situation recently.

Of course, Benitez's situation is also very difficult.

They both share the same problem.

If Torres can return to his form at Liverpool at this time, then their situation at Chelsea will be completely different.

Tong Yi had a panoramic view of all this. He immediately recruited and signaled Van Dijk to come over quickly.

Van Dijk immediately came to Tong Yi's side and asked, "Boss, what are your orders?"

Tong Yi looked at Torres on the court and said, "In the next game, keep an eye on Torres and defend him tightly. He may become the focus of Chelsea's attack next!"

Van Dijk also looked at Torres, then immediately nodded and said, "Understood!"

Tong Yi continued, "The reason why Torres is like this is because he was seriously injured before, and he also played in the World Cup and European Cup with the injury, which affected his physical recovery. He is not fully recovered physically and mentally. Recovery, so when you face him, be more active and fierce when defending, have more physical contact, and put enough pressure on him, do you understand?"

It turns out that this is the reason for Torres' poor performance recently.

Van Dijk immediately nodded and said, "Got it, boss!"

Tong

Yi also reminded, "Intensify your defense and try not to commit fouls. Do you understand?"

Van Dijk immediately nodded and said, "I know, boss."

Tong Yi then waved his hand, signaling Van Dijk to come on.

When the game restarted, Chelsea obviously strengthened their offense, especially on the two wings. Obviously, Chelsea's strength lies in the two wings. In the eyes of Chelsea people, the two current weaknesses of Crystal Palace are on the two wings. A Chinese full-back Zhang Linpeng on the right and a young Robertson on the left are the weaknesses of Crystal Palace.

As long as Chelsea seize the opportunity, they will definitely be able to score and send the football into the Crystal Palace goal.

Benitez shouted loudly from the sidelines.

With a bang, Luis in the midfield directly called a long diagonal pass to Hazard in the frontcourt. But just when Hazard was about to stop the ball, Zhang Linpeng rushed out quickly, stretched out his kick first, and pushed the football out of the line.

Azar immediately turned his head and glanced at Zhang Linpeng, his eyes tightening.

Chelsea launched another attack here. After receiving the pass, Hazard directly took the ball towards Zhang Linpeng, trying to challenge Zhang Linpeng. Looking at the Chinese players in front of him, Hazard moved very quickly with his feet, moving his ankles from time to time, making quick breakthroughs and changes of direction at any time.

And at this moment, Hazard saw the opportunity and passed directly through the crotch.

Boom!

At this moment, Kanter, who rushed out from the diagonal stab, suddenly stabbed the ball before Hazard, directly deflecting the ball.

Hazard was shocked and immediately turned to look at Kanter. When did this guy pounce on him?

Hazard was really surprised by Crystal Palace's defense, which was very comprehensive.

And Torres's feeling was no worse than Hazard's. Crystal Palace's defense put a lot of pressure on him, especially the Dutchman next to him, who really stayed with him. Moreover, the defensive intensity was very high, and with frequent physical contact, Torres felt that his body was shaking and he couldn't bear it anymore.

Benitez on the sidelines also saw it and frowned.

Crystal Palace's defensive intensity really exceeded his expectations. Their Chelsea team's sharp attack actually encountered such trouble. It seems that there are really two reasons why Crystal Palace can achieve such good results in the English Championship. Crystal Palace should not be underestimated.

Benitez immediately came to the sidelines, waved, and reminded the Chelsea players to step up their offense.

He even reminded Chelsea's offensive players to change the direction of their attack and attack Robertson directly. Robertson is young and his body is not fully developed. He should be easier to deal with.

Hazard glanced at Zhang Linpeng, then immediately turned around and switched sides with his teammate Oscar.

Chelsea continued to attack and after passing the ball continuously, Oscar in the midfield suddenly made a precise diagonal pass, passing the football directly to Torres who was advancing.

Torres moved forward quickly, saw the ball coming, and immediately stopped the ball with his divine leg.

With a bang, Van Dijk slammed into him behind him. Torres's body shook instantly, and the part where he stopped the ball was wrong. The football immediately rolled to Delaney's feet.

Delaney immediately passed the football to the feet of Mane who was advancing from the wing.

Fight back!

The people from Crystal Palace are counterattacking!

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene were very excited and excited. This should be the last offensive opportunity in the first half of the game. Crystal Palace fans cheered excitedly, hoping that their team could score another goal before the end of the first half to expand their lead.

In this case, Crystal Palace has a greater chance of winning this game.

After Mane received the ball, Chelsea's defenders immediately rushed forward. Mane was not allowed to speed up, but Mane directly passed the ball diagonally to the other side. Zaha on the side got ahead of the opponent's full-back Azpilicueta, and moved the football forward with his divine leg. The football quickly rushed past Azpilicue. At the same time, Zaha also rushed forward. past.

Azpilicueta was shocked. He immediately turned around and quickly chased Zaha!

Zaha dribbled the ball directly into the penalty area. Facing Chelsea center back Ivanovic, he took advantage of the situation and quickly rushed towards the baseline. Then suddenly he passed the ball back in an inverted triangle and passed the football directly to the penalty spot.

Murray, who was near the penalty spot, was held tightly by Cahill and had no good chance.

Murray immediately moved his legs and pretended to volley, but actually missed the football.

Cahill was so busy wrestling with Murray that he never thought that Murray would miss the ball.

In an instant, all the space behind Cahill was exposed.

Cahill immediately turned around and prepared to pounce to intercept.

Boom!

The moment Cahill turned around, he saw Mane coming up as an assistant and shooting furiously at the ball. The football shot towards Chelsea's goal in an instant.

Cahill panicked and shifted his gaze. He saw that Louis was stuck behind Pogba and had no way to intercept Mane.

damn it!

With a whoosh, the football flew towards Chelsea's goal as fast as lightning.

Danger!

Turnbull, who was in front of the goal, spotted the ball and immediately pounced out. But he didn't know what to do. The ball was too fast and he didn't have the confidence to save it.

But Turnbull tried his best!

Turnbull stretched out his hand as hard as he could.

However, the football flew past his hands as fast as light and flew to the goal behind him.

clang!

There was a sound of steel, and the football hit the inside of the goal post hard, and then bounced into the goal.

Two to zero!
