Chapter 218 The Immortal Red Devil!
Although Manchester United made two substitutions in a row and wanted to equalize the score, Chelsea's home court is indeed the most difficult place to conquer in Europe. Amid the cheers of the home fans, the Blues played vigorously, even if Bale had activated the experience card attachment. In the shortest possible time, Manchester United, led by him, failed to score a goal in the shortest time.
Not only that, in the 78th minute of the game, Manchester United lost the ball again.
It's a penalty!
In the 76th minute, Chelsea stole Manchester United in the backcourt and then launched a quick counterattack. Drogba, who came on as a substitute, cooperated with Lampard in the penalty area. After Lampard scored again, he inserted the Russian Zhirkov who had just replaced Malouda. Zhirkov fell to the ground after contact with Smallin. The referee points to the penalty spot.
This penalty kick was awarded very reluctantly, because the contact between Smalling and the Russian was very slight, but he fell to the ground in an exaggerated manner as if he had been hit by a battering ram.
Although Manchester United players kept complaining to the referee that Zhirkov flopped, Atkinson, a Confucian supporter who did good deeds on the court and was nicknamed "The Punisher", unwaveringly insisted on his decision. He also warned the Manchester United players who complained that if they continued to chatter, he would be dealt a blow.
The Manchester United players could only retreat helplessly, and the penalty kick was a foregone conclusion.
This penalty kick was taken by Lampard. The Premier League iron man succeeded in one fell swoop and steadily sent the ball into the goal guarded by Edwin van der Sar.
3:1!
The Stamford Bridge stadium was in a state of carnival, and all the Chelsea fans were celebrating wildly!
………………
In the eyes of many people, Manchester United's scoreline at Stamford Bridge was almost a death sentence.
With the stability of Chelsea's first line of defense in the Premier League and the running out of time, it seems that Manchester United's unbeaten run this season will be ended by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues are indeed the nemesis of Manchester United. Their undefeated journey is destined to end at the feet of Chelsea!
However, even so, Manchester United has been great enough this season. They have set a new club record of 31 unbeaten games in the Premier League. If it is placed on all fronts, Manchester United's unbeaten games are as high as 45 games!
Trailing Chelsea by two goals, Manchester United players also suffered a huge blow. They know very well that it is really difficult to come back after being so far behind Chelsea.
Not to mention that even if injury time is added, it is only fifteen minutes.
So does Bale.
This was the first time he really felt that Manchester United's unbeaten record might be difficult to go further.
The defense performed very poorly in this game, especially at the central defender position. Vidic was really beaten. When facing Torres, the Serbian didn't know why, but always looked very clumsy.
Is this the so-called natural enemy?
Smalling is still relatively young and lacks experience, and he did not perform well in this game.
As for the offensive end, he also did not give a very good performance. Nani on the right was still lacking in sharpness. Even Giggs, who replaced Nani later, was really a bit old.
If the right wing can create more pressure on Chelsea, then Bale will be much easier on the left.
But now the right side is a little weak. After Chelsea conceded the goal, they began to strengthen the defense on the left side, which put a lot of pressure on Bell.
But sometimes, football games are like this. Bell can't blame his teammates for this. After all, they are either not in ideal condition or they are trying their best.
But Bell doesn't want to just accept the defeat in this game. He will try his best before the final whistle blows.
Of course, Bell also knows that he alone cannot be Chelsea's opponent. With his own strength, he may be able to gallop in front of the defense of the Premier League relegation team, but if he wants to abuse Chelsea's defense, he really thinks too much.
Therefore, he must have the help of his teammates. And if you want to get help from your teammates, the team's morale must not be let down!
This time I let out a sigh of relief, and there was really no time to play in the next ten minutes of the game!
………………
Taking advantage of Chelsea's opportunity to celebrate the goal, Bell once again called all the Manchester United players together and said loudly: "Everyone, cheer up, we are not dejected yet. Being two goals behind is not the end of the world. , we still have fifteen minutes to catch up!"
Vidic said with a somewhat depressed expression: "But our opponent is Chelsea, this is too difficult..."
Most of the others also seemed to agree with Vidic's statement.
Bell was speechless. Looking at this posture, many teammates have lost confidence.
In fact, Bell knows that because Manchester United's unbeaten season lasted for too long, many Manchester United players have been in a tense state for a long time.
At this time, losing a game is actually not a bad thing, and it can relieve everyone's emotions.
Moreover, Manchester United's current lead is huge enough, and it has the confidence to lose some games.
However, Bell did not want to accept the result of losing, especially when the opponent was a direct title rival like Chelsea.
Although as far as this season is concerned, with only twelve rounds of the league left, Chelsea, which is already 27 points behind Manchester United, has only the theoretical possibility of overtaking Manchester United and can no longer be called Manchester United's title rival, but Bale still Don't want to lose.
However, looking at his uninterested teammates, Bell knew that it would be really difficult to convince them at this time.
There is only one way at present, and that is to use real performance to tell them that the game is not over yet and Manchester United has not lost yet.
………………
After the game restarted, although the Manchester United players had lost confidence in equalizing the score, they still organized a wave of attacks.
Chelsea led Manchester United by two goals and launched a defensive counterattack with peace of mind, intending to win this game in the most economical way.
They deployed within a thirty-meter area at the front of the penalty area. Giggs failed to attack on the right and was forced to pass back to Fletcher. After right back O'Shea came in, he took a look at the penalty area. There were people everywhere and he couldn't score at all.
At this time, Bell on the left suddenly retreated from the front and raised his hand to ask for the ball. Fletcher moved the ball and sent it to Bell on the left. Bell's chest stopped and he headed diagonally toward the middle.
Ramirez quickly grabbed the ball and tightly wrapped around Bell, while Essien in the middle also quickly came over.
One-on-one, Ramirez couldn't guard Bale, so Ancelotti asked Essien to pay attention to assisting defense. The same situation has happened many times in previous games, but this time it's a little different.
Since the ball quickly moved from the right to the left, Chelsea's entire defense was also moving rapidly. Essien was unable to form a double-team with Ramirez as quickly as before, so he had to be slightly slower.
Ramirez only joined Chelsea last summer. The cooperation between him and Essien is obviously not tacit enough, and there are some problems with his own positioning. He still wants to double-team him and Essien like before. To restrain Bell. But Essien slowed down a bit, and there was a gap between the two.
Bell has been waiting for the opportunity. When he realized that there was a gap between Ramirez and Essien, how could he miss such an opportunity and make a decisive decision to quickly attack the ball.
Bell started very quickly, diagonally towards the penalty area, while Ramirez stood to the left, and Essien was one step away.
Although the two Chelsea defenders reacted at the same time, Bell still allowed Bell to seize the only gap and break out of the double-team of the two defenders with the ball as quickly as possible.
………………
The whole process sounds long, but actually happens in a second or two. John Mortensen, who was in charge of the on-site commentary, didn't even have time to react.
"Fletcher moved to the left and handed it to Bell! Bell took the ball... and forced a breakthrough! Beautiful!"
"Bell was very fast and drove the ball out from between two Chelsea defenders! He rushed to the front of the penalty area!"
…
Terry gave up on Berbatov immediately and made a decisive move, trying to force Bell to prevent him from breaking into the penalty area. But as soon as the Chelsea captain rushed near Bell, he felt Bell suddenly stop. Then he felt the figure in front of him flicker. It looked like Bell was going to continue cutting to the center. Terry immediately blocked it, but unexpectedly, Bell With a click of his right foot, Terry immediately jumped into the air, and a term suddenly popped into his mind: "Pendulum Pass!!"
After dunking on Terry, Bell rushed into the penalty area as quickly as possible.
Cech reacted very quickly. When Fletcher moved and Bell attacked with the ball, he had already moved his position to the left side of the goal, blocking Bell's shooting angle to the maximum extent.
But Bell was too fast when he passed Terry, and then Bell's explosive force into the penalty area was also very fast, which caught Cech a little unexpectedly. By the time he reacted, Bell was already at the front of the small penalty area, on the right A ground ball was launched from the instep of the outside of the foot and quickly slid past the left side of Cech's body.
Although the Czech goalkeeper responded quickly, he still missed the ball.
David Luiz quickly chased back and caught up with the ball in front of the goal line. He made a sliding tackle and tried to clear the ball, but in the end he slid into the goal and the ball completely hit the goal line. .
………………
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!! In the 80th minute, just two minutes before Chelsea scored, Manchester United pulled one back! Manchester United is not dead yet! The suspense of the game is back!"
"It was Bale who scored the goal! It was this amazing Welsh kid! He scored twice! He once again penetrated Chelsea's goal with a wonderful goal!"
The entire Stamford Bridge stadium was booed!
Bell was so excited that he turned around and somersaulted out of the stadium. His strange celebration posture reappeared with the Blue Bridge.
I am the Great Sage! In the eyes of Eastern people, the great sage is indomitable. Faced with all difficulties and obstacles, he will do whatever he refuses to do!
At this time, Bell did not stop celebrating because there was not much game time left. The most critical thing at this time was to re-encourage the morale of his teammates so that the game would be promising.
And when their morale is low, an emotional celebration is undoubtedly the best way to boost morale!
………………
Soon, Rooney and other teammates also pounced on him.
"Gareth, you really did it! I can't believe it!" The little fat man hugged Bell from behind and laughed loudly, looking extremely excited and excited. He looked even better than himself. Even if you score a goal, you should be happy.
Just now, most of the Manchester United players, including him, believed that the outcome of this game was decided and there was no need to continue fighting. Only Bell persisted.
Then, less than two minutes passed, Bell told his teammates with a goal: Manchester United really hasn't lost yet!
Now that the game time has just entered the 80th minute, Manchester United is only one goal behind. They have enough time to close the one-goal gap!
Behind Rooney, Berbatov, Giggs, Fletcher, Vidic...all the Manchester United players rushed forward to celebrate Bell's goal.
At this time, they all forgot that just two minutes ago, they all felt that the game was over and Manchester United's unbeaten record was about to end.
They all felt the dawn reappearing in front of them!
