For two consecutive goals, Chelsea did not celebrate, especially the second one. Both the assister and the goal scorer quickly ran back to the half-court with serious expressions. This suppressed the festive atmosphere at the Riverside Stadium and also cheered up Chelsea's team.
Spirit.
Crespo and Wang Ai stood in the center circle again, waiting for the game to start. As soon as the opponent kicked off the ball, the two of them rushed to grab the ball. Although both of their actions were relatively clumsy, they were not without effect: they unexpectedly activated the recent insensitivity.
Wright Phillips!
He thought it would still be a mediocre afternoon. Although he was very tired, he was always timid when facing his opponents. He was afraid that another mistake would cause the team to fall into the abyss.
But today, the team really fell into the abyss. The Chinese who was younger than him, more valuable than him, and now the top scorer, unexpectedly started to defend!
I……
Wright, in a daze, completed a steal that was not exciting but unexpected.
Amidst the exclamations on the sidelines, and when his teammates kept calling his name, he subconsciously dribbled the ball to avoid the opponent's collision and looked forward. His sky-blue teammates were calling him. He took two steps forward and lightly
After moving the ball laterally to avoid another opponent's attack, he started to take long strides along the wing and charged forward.
Jose loosened his collar. He was absolutely unwilling to use such a dangerous game situation to activate Wright. However, it was so gratifying to see Wright come back to life. How long had it been since he had seen him run long distances? This bastard,
How many substitutions have I wasted!
Wright rushed from the wing, Wang Ai rushed in the middle, Lampard advanced from behind, Crespo gritted his teeth and ran wildly, and Robben was already waiting in the penalty area early.
The more Wright ran, the more awake he became. The more he ran, the more excited he became. This is the long-lost strength, this is the long-lost passion. The cold wind of the Tees River must blow more violently. I am bald and I am not afraid of the cold!
Near the baseline, Wright made several fake moves, becoming unfamiliar and quickly becoming proficient. Although he lost his center of gravity in the end, he successfully passed the ball. The football crossed along the line of the penalty area, and the much-anticipated Wang Ai stepped forward to respond.
, three defensive players quickly approached.
Unexpectedly, facing this straight pass, Wang Ai actually missed it. His expression was so lifelike that when the football flew out of the center of the three-man defense, no one even chased it.
Robben is here!
The unmarked Robben volleyed into the near corner! And goalkeeper Schwarzer had been firmly attracted to the other side of the goal by Wright and Wang Ai.
"..."
The football hit the net silently. Robben grinned, but suddenly remembered something, took two steps forward, hugged the football and ran back!
Crespo, Wang Ai, Wright, Lampard, Gudjohnsen, chasing Robben, running back!
Terry and Essien had already returned to their positions out of breath.
While running, Wright collided with Dorva, who was stunned for a moment and then fell to the ground covering his face.
Start procrastinating.
Wright spread his hands and explained to the referee. The referee lowered his head to observe the situation and called the linesman over. He did not see the impact.
Wang Ai and Crespo, who returned to the center circle, looked at each other with their arms crossed and did not step forward.
The opponent is stalling for time, which proves that the opponent is afraid!
The farce lasted for two minutes and ended with a yellow card from the referee. The time had reached the 89th minute of the second half. The courtside prompted 3 minutes of stoppage time.
Middlesbrough kicked off the ball and passed the ball back. Wang Ai and Crespo stepped forward respectively, while Wright and Robben on both wings moved forward directly. After defending for a few times, Crespo moved forward decisively, while Wang Ai got closer.
Downing.
Tang Ning knew that the Chinese didn't know how to defend, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. But then, when he was about to waste time by controlling the ball at his feet, he was in danger of being entangled by Wang Ai! In the end, when he passed the ball back, he was not strong enough and was let go by Wang Ai.
The shovel was cut off midway!
The teammates were not surprised by Wang Ai's defensive skills. Lampard got the ball and dodged Boateng's collision. There were so many people in the middle that he had to split up and let Gudjohnsen in from the back row. The Icelandic took the lead.
When the ball hit the baseline, it suddenly stopped. With the obvious middle line between Parnaby and Mendieta, the ball accurately penetrated the defense of the two of them one after another and reached the front of the penalty area.
.
At this time, Robben, a Dutchman on the left midfielder, was already flying!
However, the opponent's penalty area was crowded with people, and they found that he was about to shoot from mid-range again. Southgate quickly ran out. So, when he was about to touch the ball, Robben raised his foot and stepped over it.
A bit of a collision with Southgate.
On the other side, Wang Ai is here. He just didn't expect that Robben would miss one for him. Robben, who is still young now, is quite independent. He doesn't have such terrifying shooting skills as Wang Ai. He has to fight for it.
, where does the main position come from?
But this time, Wang Ai accidentally opened the shooting path for Wang Ai. Wang Ai was just stunned for a moment. Then, with his feet that had formed strict conditioned reflexes through years of hard training, he took a slightly smaller first step and adjusted his pace and center of gravity.
In the second step, the outside instep of the right foot met the Icelander's heavy cross, which shot in a wide arc and finally missed the post in the far corner and refracted into the goal.
This time, it's not just Chelsea who are rushing to kick off the ball.
But when the kick-off resumed, the Middlesbrough coach yelled something from the sidelines. Wang Ai didn't hear clearly, but he could see the shoulders of individual players of the opponent slump, and knew that the opponent was delaying time to maintain the tie. It was obvious.
Chelsea's momentum has increased, and it is almost over. If there is overtime, they might score double figures!
How long has it been? It’s only been 20 minutes, and the four-goal lead has been tied!
At the next kick-off, Middlesbrough faced Chelsea's personal marking. They no longer relied on personal skills, but frequently passed the ball. When they were forced to rush, they drove forward with a big kick, and then repeatedly struggled. In these few minutes, Mi
The people of Delsburg do everything possible.
It's better to get a yellow card. Once you blow it, make a judgment, and get entangled, the time is up.
This was an unprecedented embarrassing draw, and everyone could clearly see Middlesbrough's intentions. Finally, with their all-out delay, the final whistle blew.
Crespo, Robben, and Wang Ai put their hands on their hips and shook their heads in unison. This meant that there was not much time left in the game, otherwise these few minutes in Middlesbrough would have been enough to consume less than half of their physical reserves... What a pity.
Got it!
The fans who traveled with the team happily greeted the players in a small corner of the stands to receive praise. Anyway, it was tied. 04 behind, it was tied.
They may not realize the significance of this game to Chelsea. This is a special kind of tempering. After such a fierce battle, Chelsea has defeated the last trace of doubt in their hearts and has become fearless.
