N-A-A Chapter 178
Chapter 178
The Chelsea players on the pitch are also a bit demoralized at the moment, after all, this kind of personal heroic goal is helpless.
There are some things that you really can't do no matter how hard you try.
Although many players are confident that they will not lose to anyone, it is really difficult to have such confidence in the face of Xu Ning.
The game has gone on now, even if there is still a lot of time, but the strength of the two sides has already been roughly understood.
Manchester City are really strong opponents.
The defense is invulnerable, the attack is invincible!
The Chelsea players really feel powerless against Manchester City.
After resuming the kick-off, Mourinho emphasized to the players the coordination of defense and the way of standing to avoid being attacked by Xu Ning in such an unreasonable way.
Of course, since it has already been said to be unreasonable, no amount of arrangement is only symbolic.
For attack, Mourinho can only hope that Eden Hazard and Schurrle can create more threats on the wing and attract more attention in the middle.
For the remainder of the first half, City did not continue their fast-paced attack.
Anyway, they are the ones who lead the game, and reducing consumption has also become one of the needs of the competition.
And when a better solution to the problem is not found, Chelsea cannot be brainless and reckless.
So the last time was calm, and no one scored in tacit agreement.
However, when the players of the two teams walked off the pitch at half-time, the two teams of players were in very different shapes.
One side is relaxed and stress-free as usual training.
The other side shrugged their heads and quickened their pace, not wanting to stay on the field for even one more minute.
'How did you guess that Chelsea were going to use Eden Hazard to raid? Walking into the players' tunnel, Kolarov leaned over to Xu Ning and asked with a smile.
If it weren't for Xu Ning's reminder, Hazard, who had been hidden for so long, might have really made an article on the right side.
The success of his and Demichaelis defense was largely due to Xu Ning's timely reminder.
And now, they can see that Eden Hazard is indeed Chelsea's most threatening attacking point.
Xu Ning smiled, his expression secretive.
"Last night I was night staring at the horoscope and got this answer!"
"How, do you want to learn?"
"Call Dad, I'll teach you!"
Kolarov has a green face!
Call you sister!
How could he know that Xu Ning knew everything from the memories of his previous life!
You know, the heart of Chelsea now is Oscar.
In order to establish the centrality of Oscar, Mourinho gave up Mata.
Of course, it won't be long before Chelsea give up Oscar in order to establish Hazard's centrality.
Heaven's Dao is good reincarnation!
In the dressing room, Pellegrini fine-tuned his tactics to deal with possible Chelsea's attacking tactics in the second half.
At the same time, substitution adjustments were also made to allow the main players to rotate and rest.
Nasri down, Milna above;
Yaya Toure below, Rodville above;
As for Xu Ning, he must still stay on the field, after all, the game has not been won safely, and his stay on the field is the biggest deterrent.
And the key thing is that as Manchester City's big baby, many times Xu Ning is a rotational rest.
For example, in the last game against Schalke 04, he only played half time.
Back on the pitch in the second half, Chelsea's attacking stance was a little more aggressive.
Although for Mourinho, he would prefer to lose less, after all, the fewer goals conceded, the better the team's defense.
But don't lose!
If you can win, then surely this is the primary purpose.
In order to increase the attacking point, Mourinho replaced Cheetah Eto'o, while replacing Gary Cahill, who was in poor form and inconsistent in the first half.
It's a bit of a desperate bet.
However, in the second half, Chelsea's attacking firepower was smashed there by Manchester City.
Although it was not Xu Ning who scored the goal, Xu Ning was equivalent to sending a nanny ball to Aguero.
Shortly after the opening game, Fernandinho made a tackle at the back and quickly distributed the ball to the feet of David Silva.
The Spanish forward turned forward with the ball forward, dangled the passing space, and a straight kick penetrated the Chelsea defence through the ribs.
This kick is comparable to a scalpel's precise straight ball, showing the style of a master.
Xu Ning, with excellent explosiveness and starting speed, has been running close to Terry, and directly reversed the offside successfully.
The rest is a single knife ball that Xu Ning has never missed.
Although he was fully sure in the face of Petr Cech, who seemed to be ready to attack in advance, at this time, Xu Ning Yuguang saw Aguero in the middle of the outflanking.
Obviously, if the ball goes through, Aguero will kick straight into the empty net, and it will be almost empty at the goal line.
Such opportunities are not easy to see.
I don't know why, Xu Ning suddenly had a bad taste.
In my previous life, I have seen so many highlights of strikers who do not enter empty, and they have always been ridiculed by fans, but they are more funny than one, and there is really the kind of shot on the goal line that can kick the ball away.
Now he also passes a ball like this to Sergio Aguero, and it would be very interesting if Aguero also came to a "goalline rescue".
Xu Ning was already looking forward to it.
The speed of thinking is always faster than the speed of the body, just thinking of this, Xu Ning's feet have completed the action in front of the door of the middle road.
This choice caught everyone off guard.
Petr Cech simply didn't have time to save.
Even Aguero didn't expect Xu Ning's ball to come over, and he almost missed this one.
In a hurry, Aguero even stepped on the ball and stabilized his balance before pushing the ball into the goal.
After scoring the goal, Aguero was so excited that it was almost as if a silly boy had married his daughter-in-law, and he rushed towards Xu Ning with a big mouth.
"Instead of shooting, you pass the ball?"
"You know what, I almost didn't react!"
"If I hadn't been alert enough, this ball would have been gone!"
"You'll give me a signal first next time!"
Although he said something like a complaint, the tone was more like coquetry.
Xu Ning hugged Aguero, who jumped up, and couldn't help laughing.
Although it is a pity that I could not see Sergio Aguero, it is good that the team can score.
At least 3:0 was enough to make the game lose its suspense.
Even if Jose Mourinho's team is resilient, there is no good way to achieve a big comeback when there is a clear gap in strength.
However, in the final moments of the game, Hazard took advantage of a beautiful breakthrough to bring back a goal for Chelsea with his strong individual ability, which was regarded as saving a little face.
The score of 3:1 also seems to fully interpret the strength comparison between the two teams.
In a sense, this result is in line with the fans' expectations.
But the hope for Chelsea is more about seeing who can beat such a Manchester City.
Now it turns out that Chelsea can't.
