Chapter Five Hundred and Twentieth, the Heart Beats Faster

When the first half ended, the score was fixed at 2-0. The Manchester United players happily returned to the locker room, waiting for Kintag's next instruction. The Chelsea players were full of anxiety, worried about Mourinho's anger.

In the dressing room of the visiting team, Kintag praised the performance of the players.

"Guys, I'm very happy with your first half. Your attack paid off, you got two goals at Stamford Bridge, it was a good first half. You know, twice in 45 minutes Scored the Chelsea goal like no other team has done this season. You guys are amazing!"

"But we can't take it lightly. In the second half, Chelsea will definitely not be conservative anymore. They will definitely press out from the beginning and strive for goals. So I ask you to defend first in the second half and start playing defensive counterattacks. It is important not to concede the ball. Most importantly!"

"I ask you to attack with all your strength in the second half and equalize the score as soon as possible!"

In the locker room of the home team, Mourinho said loudly to the players.

He had already made a fuss just now, especially a few players in the back line, which made Mourinho scold him like a dog, and even captain Terry was not spared.

But the players knew in their hearts that the two conceded goals in the first half were indeed their responsibility, and Mourinho's anger was inevitable.

After venting his dissatisfaction, Mourinho eased up a bit: "In the second half, you all pressed forward, starting from the midfield position, don't be conservative anymore, now we are two goals behind, and there is not much time to tie the score."

"Cesc Fabregas, in the first half you put in less energy in the offense, in the second half you put all your energy up and became the core of the frontcourt. The points, breakthroughs and shots in front of the penalty area are all determined by you, just like at the beginning ..."

Mourinho just wanted to say "just like what Lampard did", but he suddenly realized that it was wrong, so he changed his words, "Just like... when you were at Arsenal. Understand Yet?"

"I see." Fabregas nodded.

Then Mourinho made substitution adjustments and tactical adjustments.

He replaced Matic and replaced striker Drogba; replaced Cuadrado, who made a mistake in the first half and conceded the ball, and replaced Oscar.

Mourinho then changed the 4-2-3-1 formation into a 4-3-3, with Drogba, Costa and Hazard forming a front three, while the midfield was led by Fafa, Willian and Oscar. , Now the team's frontcourt is full of offensive players.

At the beginning of the second half, these players launched a fierce attack towards Manchester United's penalty area.

"Costa has the ball with his back and he passes it to Drogba next to him! Drogba shoots hard! The ball goes just a little wide."

"Hazard dribbles from midfield, he gets past De Bruyne! One on one with Kante! Hazard crosses! Fabregas kicks in! De Gea saves the ball! Corner!"

"William took the corner kick and the ball flew into the middle! Didier Drogba hit the ball! The ball just hit De Gea's chest! De Gea hugged the ball firmly!"

"Chelsea bombarded Manchester United's goal throughout the second half, and there was a lot of panic in the Manchester United penalty area!"

Kintag looked up at the scoreboard. The 2-0 score had not changed, and the game time had reached 70 minutes. Manchester United lasted almost half an hour under the indiscriminate bombardment of the opponent.

During these half an hour, Jin Taige felt like his heart was about to jump out! The opponent camp is full of good attackers: every shot of the monster Drogba seems to hit Kintag's chest; every breakthrough of Hazard makes Kintag's heart beat faster and he is very anxious; and Fabregas' pass The ball also surprised Jin Taige.

Not only Kintag, but even Scholes, who has always been calm, couldn't sit still. He came to the sidelines with Kintag, closely watching the situation on the field, with good eyesight. And Phelan's mood fluctuated greatly. Just now, because of Chelsea's fierce tackle, he argued with the fourth official for a long time.

Now in the 80th minute of the game, Manchester United still leads 2-0.

Kintag decisively made substitution adjustments. He replaced Mahrez and De Bruyne with Ashley Young and Valencia, who had a more balanced offense and defense, and asked them to help Alonso and Laura. Phil stabilized the wing defense; then replaced Lewandowski and Nainggolan, and formed a double midfielder with Kanter to continue to strengthen the defense.

So far, Manchester United has only Griezmann as an offensive point in the frontcourt, and he has no chance to counterattack. He is only kept to clamp down on Chelsea's defense, so that they will be more fearful when they press across the board.

In the 85th minute of the game, the two teams fought fiercely in the midfield. Hazard tried to break through with the ball, but Lampard knocked him to the ground with a fierce tackle. The referee stopped the game and gave Lampard a yellow card. Lampard returned to his defensive position without looking back, maintaining a defensive formation.

At this time, Sky TV's Raman said with emotion: "Now Lampard has completely become a Manchester United man. There is no blue blood in his body, and the blood of the Red Devils has integrated into his body."

"Now there are two minutes to the end of the game, plus three minutes of stoppage time, that is to say, if Mourinho's team can't score two goals in five minutes, then the League Cup champion this season will be lost. It's going to be red."

"Chelsea seized the last chance to attack! Fafa's pass found Drogba! Drogba's shot was blocked by Vidic and went out of the baseline!"

"However, this shot seemed to hurt Vidic a bit. He stood up slowly holding his stomach. Manchester United's team doctor was going to play, but Vidic waved his hand, indicating that he could persist. Now Manchester United has no substitutions. Now, Vidic can only hold out for the last few minutes."

"Filipe from the left came up with the ball and assisted! Valencia got entangled with him! The two fell to the ground! The referee awarded a set kick in the frontcourt! The position of the ball is very good!"

"Xiaofa stood in front of the ball, ready to take the penalty. Now the game has entered stoppage time, Chelsea must hurry up!"

"Free kick back! Terry's header! De Gea saves it!"

"De Gea made a brave save to keep the goal clean!"

"Now the game is at the last moment, Terry also assisted to the frontcourt, and only Cahill is left behind to mark Griezmann. If Manchester United can counterattack at this time, then Griezmann has a one-on-one chance. Big. But now United's task is to defend the last two minutes."

"More than a minute of stoppage time has passed, Chelsea continue to take corner kicks!"
