Chapter 609 Glory even if defeated
"The wishing eyes are red! This is really a rare scene."
Wishing just walked to the sidelines, and the camera gave him a close-up just right. All the fans could see that Wishing's eyes were flushed, which was a bit embarrassing for Wishing, who has always shown himself as a tough guy.
But no one would laugh at him, anyone would be moved by this scene, wishing that this is the tenderness of an iron man.
Both sides failed to score again in the first half of the game. Of course, this is also because Victoria once again adjusted the way of defensive wishing. He put the fast Sanches close and let Samaris leave a position to block at any time.
If wishing to enter the penalty area, Yadell is waiting for him, and Lindelof is also watching.
Wishing has also encountered this level of defense in normal times. It's not that he has no experience of scoring goals under multiple defenses, but he is not a superman after all, and it is impossible to score goals every time.
In general, Benfica's defensive strategy in the first half was fairly successful, and they only allowed Wish to score a fairy goal.
But it was this ball that was fatal, and Victoria had to make a choice. In the second half, Benfica should attack to try to equalize the score, or continue to defend. A 0-1 loss is also acceptable.
Of course, Victoria can't accept losing. Although the Champions League knockout rounds are two rounds, if they lose at home and go to Stamford Bridge, Victoria has no confidence to lead Benfica to beat the mighty Chelsea.
He decided to attack.
Mourinho still insisted on the tactics of the first half. Chelsea wanted to control the rhythm of the game. He didn't want to hand over the offensive initiative to Benfica.
At the same time, Mourinho also expected that Benfica would strengthen their offense in the second half, so during the intermission, he kept emphasizing the conversion of offense and defense, which is what Chelsea is good at.
Victoria originally thought that Chelsea would take the initiative to withdraw and play a defensive counterattack, but unexpectedly in the second half Chelsea still came out and strangled Benfica in the midfield.
The two sides had offense and defense against each other, but neither of them could create too good opportunities.
Wishing has always been in a state of being strictly guarded, and there are never less than two people around him.
But the great thing about superstars is that they can always make game-changing decisions when others think it is impossible.
The same is true of wishing.
In the 608th minute, Wish suddenly retreated to participate in the defense, and worked together with Fabregas to steal Gaitan's ball.No way, Wishing and Gaitan were teammates from Benfica to Rome. He knows Gaitan too well.
After stealing the ball, Wish made a two-for-one cooperation with Cesc Fabregas, avoiding Sanchez's grab.
When the football returned to the feet of the wish, there was a brief gap in front of him, but it was quickly filled by other Benfica players, and Samaris was already running towards the wish.
Make a wish and raise your head. The skill [Fox in the Restricted Area] allowed him to immediately discover the space on the right side of Benfica. Sanchez was about to move and was preparing to advance.
But Wish's pass is not good, he is not sure to send a through ball like Cesc Fabregas and De Bruyne across the half, but Wish has his own way, he swung his right leg while running, and then like Like a shot, it was drawn on the football, but this time he didn't use any deciduous ball skills, but kicked a low-level ball.
"Wishing dribbled the ball past midfield...Eh? Long shot?"
It wasn't just the commentator who couldn't understand, everyone was stunned, but Sanchez didn't. The moment he made a wish and raised his foot, he also increased his horsepower and rushed towards the empty space.
The football flew close to the ground at an extremely fast speed. By the time Lindelof wanted to stretch out his feet to intercept it, it was too late. The football passed before his toes and landed in the penalty area.
And Sanchez also overtook from the inside of Almeida, appeared in the correct position, and received the ball.
It wasn't until then that everyone discovered the intention of making a wish. Poet He exclaimed, "The through pass across the half court, the wish is too imaginative! I hope Sanchez will not disappoint the pass of the wish!"
Naturally, Sanchez would not let go of such an opportunity. He calmly pulled the ball and turned around, facing Cesar who was attacking, he calmly pushed the far corner and succeeded!
0 is better than 2!
Chelsea in the away game lead by two goals!
Wishing still did not celebrate, he just clenched his fist and waved it, and it was over.
He also knew that this goal had completely declared the death of Benfica.
In the case of two goals behind, the time is only more than 20 minutes, it is impossible for Benfica to catch up with Chelsea, let alone a reversal, they can't even equalize.
I said that I must go all out, that is, I must go all out. The game is not over yet, and Wish will continue to pursue goals.Maybe some people will find it cruel, but this is the best way to make a wish to pay homage to your old club.
Although they conceded two goals, Benfica did not intend to give up the game. Instead, they let go of their burden and played more actively.
Just five minutes later, Benfica created a great chance, but Jonas caught the ball on the post and startled Mourinho.
Victoria stood in front of the coach's bench with her arms folded, watching everything that was happening on the court with a serious expression.
He was not anxious, panicked, or desperate. Before the game started, Victoria knew that no matter how hard he tried, even at his home court, it would be difficult for Benfica to overthrow Chelsea.
But Victoria still asked her disciples to give it their all.
It has nothing to do with winning or losing, it's about dignity!
Sanches moved more and defended more aggressively, for which he received a yellow card.
As the captain, Gaitan has to be at the forefront of the offense, and the defense will always chase the bottom line. No. 805 minutes, he cramp.
But Gaitan was still holding on to Perisic's jersey before the cramp, and both of them fell to the ground, preventing a Chelsea counterattack.
Mitroglu, Pich, Lindelof, Yader, Almeida...
Every Benfica player fought to the end, exhausted the last bullet, and finally their hard work was rewarded.
In the final stage of the game, Sanchez passed the ball, Gaitan made an inverted triangle cross from the wing, and Jonas, who followed up in the center, broke through the goal guarded by Courtois!
At this moment, the entire Stadium of Light was boiling again, and the cheers they erupted were no less than the shouts when they greeted the wish.
This is the crazy Stadium of Light, and this is the devil's home stadium that has made countless visiting teams frightened!
Jonas' goal did not allow Benfica to win the game. In the end, Benfica lost the first round of the UEFA Champions League 1-to-2 at home [-]-[-].
No one thought they could win the second leg three weeks later and knock out Chelsea, who had a win and two away goals.
But no one will think that Benfica is a loser. They played bloody in this game, and they are honored to lose!
