Chapter 627
Chapter 627
The second half was back to how it was at the beginning of the first half, with Manchester City attacking and then being pushed back by Chelsea's tough defense.
The difference is that De Bruyne is still young, he can still run, but the 30-year-old David Silva can't, he was bitten by Cesc Fabregas very badly today, halfway through the second half, Mourinho again Putting on Inle and continuing to press him, David Silva felt that his feet were getting heavier and heavier, and he couldn't run anymore.
Aguero slammed into the arms of Van Dijk and Stones, who had come back from the lifting of the ban. The two made up for each other, and gave Aguero the treatment of wishing.
The Argentine striker doesn't have the ability to make a wish, he was guarded very hard.
However, the Manchester City players have not given up. They are still trying their best to attack and try to equalize the score. The Manchester City fans watching the game in front of the TV have a sense of tragedy.
But a football game is not only about attacking, but also defending and counterattacking...
No.608 minutes, Chelsea launched a counterattack.
In Ancelotti's tactics, David Silva was mostly active on the right. Now that his physical strength has declined, Manchester City's offensive focus has shifted to Sterling on the left.
Sterling's breakthroughs and running positions are indeed very sharp, but he still has a problem, that is, he is prone to distraction.
This counterattack stemmed from the fact that Sterling did not play the ball in time. As soon as Azpilicueta and Matic closed the door, Sterling lost the ball.
Chelsea's counterattack was very simple, that is, Matic passed the football diagonally to Salah on the left in the backcourt.
Manchester City's offensive center of gravity is on the left, and their own defense on the right is very empty.
Salah dribbled the ball forward as left-back Marcos Alonso slid in from behind at high speed and the two sprinted into City's half.
When passing through the midfield, the two made a two-for-one cooperation, easily getting rid of Manchester City's midfielder Fernandinho, and Wishing also advanced at high speed, just behind Salah and Marcos Alonso behind.
On the right side of Manchester City, Chelsea is firing three arrows at this time, which makes Manchester City's already stretched defensive force even more tense...
Whether it is Manchester City or Chelsea fans, they have lifted their buttocks from their seats, leaned forward, and stared at the stadium or the TV screen.
The game is almost 10 minutes into the game. If Chelsea scores another goal at this time, Manchester City's morale will completely collapse. The previous lost game will recover instantly like a virus hidden in the body. Lost the suspense.
Ancelotti knows this, the fans know it, and the Manchester City players on the field know it too.
Everyone is desperately returning to defense, trying to stop Chelsea's counterattack. De Bruyne, Fernando and Fernandinho all rushed to make a wish. They know that wish is the most threatening player for Chelsea. As long as they defend Without him, everything will be fine.
Salah had rushed to the edge of the penalty area at this time, and he began to slow down consciously, waiting for the Chelsea players to come up, Kompany directly pushed up, and Marcos Alonso, who was overlapping, naturally had Clichy to follow up.
At this time, Salah looked up at the penalty area, then made an emergency stop, and at the same time used the outer instep of his right foot to push the football to the inside-cut inside!
At the same time, Wishing, who had already run to the front of the penalty area, accelerated towards Manchester City's penalty area again.
At this time, if Salah sends a through ball, the wish will be single-handed.
Straight pass diagonally!
The name of the tactic popped up in everyone's mind. It is one of Chelsea's most used tactics, and Wish and Salah have used this tactic to score a lot of goals.
Of course, this tactic is not special. Almost all teams are using it, and Kompany can naturally see it.
Kompany retreated a few steps abruptly, backed up with the wish, and Fernandinho, who was the fastest chasing back, also rushed into the penalty area with the wish, he wanted to prevent the wish from passing Kompany before shooting .
To their surprise, Salah didn't pass the ball at all, but continued to swipe his right foot, cut in again, and at the same time swayed the shooting angle.
Wishing is just a pretense!
If a reporter rushed into the field to interview Salah's feelings, he would definitely say, "Manchester City's defensive players should not go too far. Chelsea is not the only one who makes wishes."
After shaking the angle, Salah decisively shot with his right foot. Although he is not his dominant foot, he is not a handicapped foot, and he still has a certain shooting accuracy.
The football drew a beautiful arc and went straight to the far corner of the goal. Joe Hart jumped up vigorously and rushed back.
He judged the right direction, but after all, he was also attracted by the running position of the wish just now, after all, he was still a beat behind, and the football was swiped in front of his hands and flew into the goal...
"2 to 0! We killed the game, we not only have toro, but also the little pharaoh! Beautiful goal, from the Egyptian striker Salah, his shot, broke the goal of Manchester City! We are still far away from the three consecutive championships Four games away."
No one thinks that the Chelsea commentator is wrong. Look at the Manchester City players. After this goal, they have completely lost the motivation to equalize the score.
Almost every player had a look of disappointment and bewilderment on their faces. They no longer knew how to continue playing.
Ancelotti is the calmest person now, and soon he replaced three people, replacing Aguero, De Bruyne and David Silva, even a fool can see Ancelotti's intention, he gave up.
I have to say that Ancelotti's decision is very correct. Now Manchester City's morale has fallen to the bottom. If they attack forcefully, it will have little effect, and it will also make the players feel war-weary.
The most important thing at this time is to preserve morale and fighting spirit while avoiding injuries during the game.
There are still four rounds left in the league, and Manchester United and Tottenham may not necessarily win. Even if they give up this game, Manchester City may not necessarily fail to qualify for the Champions League.
Manchester City voluntarily surrendered, and Chelsea did not kill them all. Two weeks later, there will be a Champions League semi-final to be played, with a league game and two FA Cup games interspersed in between. Mourinho does not want to cause extra problems.
As for why it's two FA Cup games...Chelsea never expected to lose to Crystal Palace.
In the end, Chelsea easily defeated Manchester City 2-0 at home, and completed three kills this season, worthy of Manchester City's nemesis...
Chelsea fans are naturally rejoicing, but the fans who made a wish are a little bit more unsatisfied.
Wishing played a big role in this game. The first tactical free kick was initiated by him and finally scored. He also attracted enough defense for Salah for the second goal, which can be said to be the greatest contribution .
But his fans feel that Wishing has scored too few goals in the league during this period. There are still four games left in the Premier League. Wishing is now six goals away from Dixie Dean's record. It may not be possible to successfully break this record...
