Chapter 331 The First Ball
This is the second time that Liverpool has threatened Chelsea's goal since the opening.
Baroche's threat did not change Mourinho's expression. He still looked like talking and laughing, and his indifferent appearance was prominent. It seemed that the thing that threatened his goal just now did not happen, but from the flash of the TV screen, it could still be seen that the Portuguese had frowning.
And Liverpool's attack continues, and Don Jack is still playing his strong role.
On the right side of the road, Chelsea's defender seems to have nothing to do with him, as Chelsea and even England's rookie right-back, Glen. Johnson's feeling is the most obvious. He has been defending on the right side and forgets when the black-haired boy began to swim on the right side.
Since then, Glen. Johnson's defense has failed repeatedly.
As England's new generation of talented defender, Glen. Johnson is still a little proud.
West Ham United's youth training system has always been the origin of English defenders. As a "high-quality product" there, Glen. Johnson joined the Hammers Youth Team in 2000 at the age of 15 and signed a formal professional contract in 2001, that is, at the age of 16.
During the Milwall loan, Johnson, who was only 18 years old, was selected to the England youth national team to participate in the competition. When West Ham United was relegated from the Premier League in 2003, Glenn. Johnson joined the Blues Chelsea for 6 million pounds and became one of the members of Chelsea. At that time, he only played more than ten games in the Premier League, and it was generally believed that he was not worth 6 million pounds.
Soon, Glen Johnson stabilized his position at a sharp speed and was selected to the England national football team.
This year, Glen. Johnson is less than 20 years old. He has established a solid position in Chelsea. Although he can't be said to start every game, he is still a very useful card in Mourinho's hand. Such a genius will always be a little proud.
But now, Johnson feels that his ability is seriously insufficient!
His consciousness is good, his physical fitness is also great, and his speed and reaction are equally fast. But in the face of this kind of perverted black-haired boy who is flexible and strong like an elf, he really can't do anything about it. In the previous game, the two fought seven times. At first, Johnson still wanted to grab the ball, but now he is It has been numb---
Turn around and force it!
Use your body to protect the ball!
Quick disguised breakthrough!
The ball has been divided in the air!
.......
In just ten minutes, it was almost hell for Johnson. His left side seemed to have become an open space where trucks could go straight. His defense had no effect at all. When he saw the brunette boy get the ball again, Glen. Johnson's first reaction is no longer steal, but close defense - as long as it is guaranteed not to be easily dumped by the opponent, it is victory.
"Learn to be smart..." Don Jack, who had just picked up the ball, muttered to himself.
Just now, the young defender always grabbed his own ball, and then was easily passed by himself. Now this guy is obviously smart. When he saw him holding the ball, he did not come forward directly, but slowly approached. Jack Don sighed in his heart that the real game field really trained people, and the growth of this young defender was too obvious.
But it doesn't matter.
His left foot drew a circle on the ball, and his right heel kicked behind the football. With a little force, the football rushed forward. After a fake move, Don Jack followed the ball and was about to get rid of Johnson.
But it didn't work this time.
Glen. Johnson has been passed so many times, and he is also a little experienced. After seeing the speed of the other party, Johnson will not let the other party start easily. After blocking it with his body, Johnson immediately turned around and chased him, and did not fight with Don Jack. Johnson just ran close to him. A few steps later, Don Jack found the young man around him. The defender is still following.
"It's a little interesting..." Don Jack suddenly turned his head and smiled at Johnson.
"What?"
While Johnson was wondering, Don Jack suddenly stopped the ball. Taking advantage of the time, his right foot rubbed the ball, and the football went straight to the middle from the right side to the turf.
"Into the middle!" Kinson shouted.
Following the perspective of the big screen, the football has reached the middle, where a red figure is running and receives the pass just right. At the same time, Don Jack has quickly run to the penalty area.
"Steve Steven's ball!"
Gerrard received a pass, but did not choose to shoot.
He slowed down, turned the ball to the left, and shook Carvalho's steal. After that, Gerrard looked up at the penalty area, rubbed the ball with his right foot, and the football hung towards the middle of the penalty area.
There, a red figure flew out---
"Jack!!! It's Jack!!!"
The Chelsea players in the penalty area didn't notice Don Jack, John, who suddenly inserted into the penalty area. Terry mainly stared at Baroche, while the other defender Bridge stared at Alonso on the left. When Don Jack rushed over, he was only followed by Glenn. Johnson.
At the moment when the football fell, Don Jack had jumped one step ahead of Terry.
John. Terry is 1.87 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms. As the captain of Chelsea, he is the backbone of the England team. His physical fitness is self-evident. Terry is also good at bouncing. At the moment when Gerald passed the ball, he did not look at people like other defenders, but judged the landing point of the football, regardless of the opponent. Where is it? He just needs to get the ball out of the penalty area with the top of his head.
It's the same this time.
Looking at the whereabouts of the football, Terry took two steps to the right, and then jumped directly to the top. Just when he exhaled in his heart and felt that the other party's attack was futated, a red figure suddenly appeared in the perspective. He had not reacted, but subconsciously felt that the other party seemed to jump higher than him.
How is that possible?
Terry in the air even felt that he had read it wrong.
But the fans can see it clearly. In fact, at the moment Gerard passed the ball, the black-haired boy took three steps in the penalty area, and then took two more steps and rushed over at speed. It can be said that the body was in the air, completely walking a slash, but the figure was almost higher than Terry, who was waiting in place. Twenty centimeters.
The ownership of the ball is self-evident.
After Don Jack jumped into the air, he glanced at the ball from the corner of his eyes. He settled down and waved his head forward, and the football just hit his forehead---
Fishing to the top!
"Beautiful!!!!" Even Chelsea fans couldn't help shouting in amazement.
With this strength, the football went straight to Chelsea's goal.
The voices in the audience were endless. Almost everyone in the audience stared at the football. Chelsea fans were afraid that the football would fly into their own net, while more people were praying for the football to enter the goal.
"Thank God..." The next moment, many Chelsea fans began to pray.
The ball shot was good, and the goalkeeper Cech did not react at all. Unfortunately, the football flew out of the goal with the crossbar, which made all the Liverpool fans feel sorry. Chelsea fans are really happy.
※※※
"This is a good ball!"
Sky TV commentator Kinson said, "This rush is so beautiful. Unfortunately, Jack seems to have a little less luck today. The ball flew out against the beam..."
Cech got up from the grass and turned his head to look at the football that hit the guardboard. He was also very happy.
He didn't react at all just now. In fact, it is impossible for the goalkeeper to react to that kind of ball. The speed of the football is too fast, and at the moment of shooting, no one can know which side the football is flying. Cech can't accurately judge at all, so he can only expand the defensive area of his body as much as possible.
Fortunately, the ball did not score.
That is to say, now the two teams are still on the same running line, and no matter how good the opponent's performance is, it is useless without scoring. After a long breath, Chelsea roared at his teammates for fear, "Don't let that guy shoot easily!"
When the other players heard this, they didn't say much.
But some people think that Cech is too much. The strength of the other black-haired boy is not so easy to deal with. They have tried their best. Many people looked at John. Terry.
The ball just now, Terry and Don Jack competed for the ball. Don Jack beat Terry's header. If you want to say Cech's complaint, a large part of it must be Terry, and Terry is the captain of Chelsea... But it seemed that Terry's expression was very indifferent. He just shook his head, spread out his hand at Cech, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
That feeling was not angry at all. Instead, he was so indifferent that he didn't care about the situation just now. He could only feel a little sorry for Cech's words. As Chelsea's captain, at least in terms of mentality, he was completely qualified.
※※※
Liverpool once again threatened Chelsea's goal, and this time it was Don Jack.
At this time, the game lasted less than 30 minutes. Chelsea's defense has been very stable, but Liverpool still poses a threat to the goal twice. This efficiency can only be said to be average, but in the face of Chelsea's full defense, this efficiency is already very good.
Similarly, Chelsea players feel very bad.
Before the game, when head coach Mourinho arranged the tactics, he once said that the game, in the Portuguese's point of view, the most feared thing is Liverpool to play offensive football. In that case, as long as they hold the first half and keep looking for counterattack opportunities, the victory will be in front of Chelsea.
But this doesn't seem to be the case now.
Liverpool is Chelsea's most 'like' offensive football. As a result, the other side has not scored since the beginning of the game, but it has threatened their own goal again and again, but there are only two threats. In the general offensive, it is difficult for Chelsea to prevent Liverpool from hitting the ball into the penalty area. During this period, Baroche has become the key defense target of Chelsea defenders, just because there are too many balls entering the penalty area, and the tall and strong Baroche looks so threatening.
More than that, Chelsea fought back and didn't play smoothly.
Although Liverpool is a big attack, they are not very forward. Most of the players are actually still in the midfield. There are only one or two players in each attack. Even if they complete a sudden steal, the other side calmly arranges a solid defense in the middle, so that Chelsea can't counterattack again and again. From play.
Drogba in the front court is a little depressed.
Mr. 'Warcraft' has always been Chelsea's most threatening striker striker, so in general, he is at the forefront of the formation. When countering, Drogba is the most powerful player, but every time he gets the ball, it is not easy. As soon as he gets the ball, he will be guarded by two players, including even Gerard. Player, Drogba doesn't feel very good.
Chelsea counterattacked, but few players can keep up with his position. That is to say, their counterattack is always hasty. Liverpool did not score in the first 30 minutes, but Chelsea did not even have a chance in the first 30 minutes.
Such a situation really gives Chelsea players a headache. They feel that they can't control the game. Originally, they thought that the team would definitely win, and the game seemed to be going according to the coach's script. But in fact, they felt that the current situation was a little wrong. They couldn't tell what was wrong. Come on.
This may be up to Chelsea coach Mourinho.
At the coach's bench, Mourinho had no intention of talking and laughing. He stared at the field solemnly. What players can feel, as a professional coach who controls the game, his feeling is even more obvious. With many advantages than the players, Mourinho observes the game off the field. He can clearly see Liverpool's formation and layout in attack and defense.
Mourinho noticed something wrong!
Liverpool's offensive football has been playing, and it has been suppressing Chelsea's attack, but in fact, Liverpool's formation is not very forward in the attack, and even the dark-haired boy often pulls back. Under such circumstances, Chelsea's counterattack can't be fought at all.
It's strange that the other side's offensive formation can actually beat Chelsea...
Once...
Twice...
......
After a few times, Mourinho understood Liverpool's routine. He felt that he had been trapped.
Liverpool is playing offensive football, and at the beginning of the game, Mourinho feels that the only player to worry about is their No. 10, that is, Don Jack. If the opponent can break through the Chelsea goal, the black-haired boy must have played a great role, and it is more likely that the black-haired boy scored.
So, Mourinho has always positioned Don Jack as a striker!
A real striker!
That's all.
But now in the game between the two teams, this black-haired boy did not do what a shooter should do: he waited for an opportunity in the front court, but always withdrew to take the ball and cooperated with his teammates to launch an offensive. More opportunities were given to Baroche in the penalty area, which directly led to his lack of many opportunities... Of course, this is not the point. The point is that this brunette boy is obviously a striker, but what he is doing now is what he should do at the core of the attack.
What is Gerald doing?
Of course, Mourinho will pay attention to Gerrard. There is more than one Don Jack in Liverpool, and Gerrard is also a great threat. Soon he found that in the game, Gerrard was more engaged in response work. Occasionally, he had the opportunity to pass the ball and give the opportunity to his teammates, and he did not have a good chance. Directly retreated to the defense.
Therefore, Gerard often appears beside Drogba...
That is to say, the opponent's offensive core has become the black-haired boy, and the defensive core has become Gerard. With Gerard Garrard, who has been defending in the backcourt, it is no wonder Chelsea's counterattack. At the same time, the other side has a big offensive posture, and the attack is also very smooth, but it is the brunette boy who plays a role more. One or two Chelsea's defensive players can't defend him at all, which is the direct reason for Chelsea's disadvantage.
This guy...
Mourinho was a little anxious.
He hates the feeling that the situation is off track, but now it happens. He has to study how to play the next game.
"Time will pass quickly..." A word that never came out of Mourinho's mouth popped out.
The Portuguese hope that the team can drag the game to halftime and adjust the team's tactics at that time. Chelsea did not suffer a 0:0 score at halftime. Liverpool's failure to score in the first half must have some impact on morale. At that time, it will be Chelsea's opportunity.
※※※
However, Liverpool still has an advantage, and there are still more than ten minutes left in the game. Mourinho should probably pray to God, although this Portuguese is a well-known atheist.
Protect the ball with your back, turn around and turn to a strong thrust!
Glen. Johnson was easily thrown away by Don Jack again. The young England genius guard even hoped that the coach could replace him. He couldn't stand it anymore. Especially after being shaken away, he had to accept the doubtful eyes from his teammates, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
There's nothing I can do. Johnson still has to chase the ball.
Johnson should have done a good job this time. He has been sticking to Don Jack's side and directly chased to the bottom line. After reaching the bottom line, Johnson was very cautious and did not step out. He just stuck in the position with his body and blocked the passing route of the dark-haired boy in front of him.
At this time, Jack Don suddenly shook his foot on the ball!
Taking advantage of the stunned time of the black boy in front of him, he immediately hit the ball with his heel. At the same time, he hit the opponent with his arm, turned around with the rhythm and pulled his foot on the left side of the football - cross!
It's in the middle again!
The players in Chelsea's penalty area have even been numb. This situation is not once or twice. In fact, when Don Jack wanders to the side, the ball is basically unbroken. Johnson can't defend him at all. Even if there are one or two midfielders to make up for it, it is useless. At the same time, the ball in Chelsea's penalty area The member didn't dare to run too forward, which made him unimpeded.
This time it seems to be no different from just now. Terry is still stuck in his position to prepare for the header.
Barosh stood in the penalty area and kept competing for the position with his body. However, his body was good, but he was still a little different from Terry. He was always earned the ball by the other party again and again. Even if he had a good temper like Barosh, he was very angry. This time, he was careful and did not fight with Terry as much as he did just now. Instead, It was a small step back. At the moment the football fell, it suddenly accelerated and turned to Terry.
"Learn to be smart..."
Jack Don, who just ran into the penalty area, said to himself that if this guy still performed just now, I'm afraid that the coach will not let him start in the next game.
Barosh is already in the air.
He didn't have Don Jack's reaction speed. Although his body had the advantage of bouncing before Terry, when everything was ready to attack, Baroche found that it was a little late. His first reaction was to push the ball out and pass it to his teammates.
"Here, Milan! Here!" There was a shout in my ear.
Baroche subconsciously waved his head and passed the ball in that direction. At the same time, he was hit by Terry behind him and fell to the ground lying on his back.
"Shit!" Barosh cursed.
He turned his head and looked at the goal, which has been a long-standing habit of Czechs. Passing the ball to Don Jack -- looking at the opponent's goal, everything is so simple. In his heart, Don Jack has risen to the point where he can score a goal...
If Don Jack knew that Barosh trusted him so much, he might be very moved.
But in fact, Baroche's pass just now was really bad. The ball was not only powerful, but also a little far away. Jack Tang ran forward again, but the ball almost flew over his head. Fortunately, he reacted and jumped to reach the ball in front of his head and stopped for two times.
Chelsea players are already nervous!
"Stop him!" Terry, who had just landed, shouted, and I didn't know who he was shouting.
Just now, everyone's attention was on Baroche. Don Jack was unguarded at all. During the process of stopping the ball, Lampard ran from the side, but the position of the two made it difficult for Lampard to defend directly, and he did not dare to make any big moves in the penalty area. As a result, Jack Tang took the ball to the bottom line and threw him away.
After, shoot directly!
"Hula..." Even half of the fans stood up in the audience.
In the face of the best opportunity in the first half, Jack Don calmly shot at the 30-degree position of the oblique goal. There was no arc at all, and there was no need to hang the door. The football rushed to the goal defense line like a cannonball.
In front of the door, Cech almost blocked all angles.
That's just almost...
When the football rushed past his arm, Cech didn't react at all. He didn't even realize that the other side had shot... But the next moment, the referee signaled the effective whistle on the court.
"The ball... I'm in!!!!!!"
