Chapter 653 Reversal

Looking back on the experience of last season, it was like when Manchester United wanted to have fun, they would come to Chelsea and they would definitely have a great time.

This feeling was really terrible.

Losing the ball at the beginning, is it going to repeat the previous tragic experience?

The camera was aimed at the sidelines. Mourinho cheered and seemed to be shouting something.

Then, the camera immediately turned to Sarri in the home team's coaching booth. The Italian's expression was a little dazed at that moment, and then he came back to his senses, shouting loudly, clapping, and roaring at his players on the sidelines.

There was a voice in Sarri's heart that he must lead the team to kill Manchester United and stop Manchester United, and not let Chelsea be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

Chelsea's counterattack was beyond the expectations of Mourinho and Manchester United.

Mourinho considered that this game would be difficult to play, but he did not expect Chelsea to show unprecedented tenacity.

In the 19th minute of the game, Chelsea attacked. Matic made a diagonal pass, and William dribbled the ball at high speed on the wing. He pretended to cut inside and suddenly sent a cross pass.

Maguire tried to clear the ball at the front point, but the ball was touched by him, changed direction, and rolled to the top of the penalty area.

Jorginho followed up with a long shot, and Kante blocked the ball with his body. Lukaku followed up and held Van Dijk, half-turned and shot, and the ball swept into the net from above the left hand of Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea.

1:1, Chelsea equalized the score.

………………

Chelsea, who equalized the score, became more and more morale on the field. The offensive cooperation was very smooth, and the defensive players were also very active.

In the 31st minute of the game, Chelsea played a wonderful offensive cooperation.

William made continuous breakthroughs and passed the ball, Matic missed the ball in the middle, Lukaku pushed with his left foot, and Hazard, who inserted at the back point, pushed the ball, and De Gea saved it and hit the post.

"Beautiful attack! This is Chelsea, this is the Chelsea in our memory!" Martin Taylor also praised Chelsea's attack.

Sarri stood up on the sidelines and applauded the team's attack.

"Keep an eye on the players!" Mourinho roared on the sidelines.

Van Dijk missed a player in this defense, and he didn't keep an eye on Hazard who came in from behind.

Sarri was in a good mood. The team was able to quickly equalize the score after losing the ball at the beginning of the game. This is a very good phenomenon, which shows that the players are in good shape.

The most important thing is that Chelsea has been very tough since the first half of the game, and they have played well against Manchester United.

Mourinho returned to the coaching seat from the sidelines and said to Faria who was sitting next to him: "What do you think, Rui?"

"Chelsea's fighting spirit is very strong today, and today's game is very difficult." Faria said, "Do you want to make any adjustments?"

"No..." Mourinho shook his head and said, "Not for the time being, in fact, we played well, and did you notice..."

He glanced at Chelsea's right side.

"You mean Azpilicueta has been pressing very high recently?" Carrick came over and said.

"That's right." Mourinho said with a smile, "Mbappe's chance is here, it depends on whether the ball can be transferred at the right time. But I believe Bruno, that kid is too good at seizing opportunities!"

………………

Matic got the ball in the midfield, and Kante signaled Herrera to press the Chelsea midfielder.

Herrera rushed to Matic, who failed to get rid of it several times in a row and chose to pass the ball to Kovacic.

Kovacic just got the ball and Luke Shaw rushed over, which scared Kovacic.

He glanced at Azpilicueta coming up and there was no one defending him.

"Nice interception!" Andy Gray shouted, "Excellent anticipation!"

Kovacic made a long diagonal pass to Azpilicueta, but this passing line was a trap set by Manchester United. Kante was well prepared and suddenly rushed up and intercepted the ball in the middle.

After Kante intercepted the ball, he immediately passed it to Bruno, and the Manchester United captain organized the attack.

Bruno did not let the ball stay under his feet. The ball flew high over Chelsea's midfield. Flying to the left side, there seemed to be no one there...

"Kylian Mbappe!"! Martin Taylor shouted loudly.

Azpilicueta pressed too close, and there was a gap behind him.

Bruno's pass flew directly there, Mbappe was chasing the ball, and there was no one defending him in front, behind, or around him.

Chelsea pressed too hard on the right side. They didn't expect their pass to be intercepted, nor did they expect Manchester United's counterattack to come so quickly. Bruno's pass was so timely and accurate.

Mbappe raised his left foot and hooked the ball, and the most beautiful thing was that the ball did not stop dead, the ball continued to roll forward, and Mbappe did not slow down and continued to chase the ball.

"Beautiful!" In the CCTV studio, commentator He Wei exclaimed, "Mbappe is very smart. He didn't let the ball stop, which just makes use of his speed advantage!"

"Manchester United's counterattack is coming! This is what they are best at!" Zhang Lu said.

………………

"Counterattack! Manchester United's counterattack!"

"Mbappe's speed is very fast!"

Azpilicueta desperately chased back, but he found that he could not catch up with the French boy at all.

"There are only two people in Chelsea's penalty area, David Luiz and Rudiger. Manchester United's counterattack was too sharp!" Martin Taylor praised, "Bruno's transfer of the ball just now was too accurate."

"No, what I want to praise is Manchester United's steal. Someone pressed, and then deliberately missed Azpilicueta, attracting Song to pass the ball, and Kante's smart steal. This was premeditated!" Andy Gray said, he He suddenly raised his voice, "Mbappe - pass the ball!"

Mbappe passed a ground ball, Harry Kane was in front and Rudiger was guarding him.

Harry Kane raised his right foot, trying to stop the ball.

Rudiger held Harry Kane tightly, preventing him from turning around.

"pretty!"

"Heel!"

Harry Kane raised his right foot, but instead of stopping the ball, he used his heel to knock the football behind him. Almost at this moment, Bruno, who was originally behind, suddenly accelerated and rushed over.

David Luiz quickly followed, but it was too late.

Rushing to the football, Bruno half-turned on the spot and volleyed. It's like being half of a top, centering on yourself, pushing your left foot on the ground, turning your right foot on the football, and turning your whole body in half a circle.

"Bruno!" Along with Andy Gray's roar, the football picked up by Bruno flew toward the goal.

The football passed by the left side of Kepa's body and went directly into the net.

"YES!GOOOOOOOOAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!"

………………

As the ball flew into the net, players from Manchester United's bench rushed out, pumping their fists, applauding and cheering excitedly.

Just as Mourinho was about to cheer, he was hugged tightly by Faria and Carrick.

In the away team's stands, Manchester United fans also jumped up from their seats instantly, cheering and shouting.

"2:1! Bruno's goal helped Manchester United surpass the score again!"

"This is Bruno's 9th Premier League goal this season! After 9 rounds of the league, Bruno scored 9 goals. His average efficiency of 1 goal per game puts him far ahead in the scorer list. He is truly worthy of being the World Footballer!" shouted Andy Gray.

After the team took a 2:1 lead, Mourinho immediately called Kante and Bruno to the sidelines and gave them face-to-face instructions.

When Sarri saw this scene, the Italian frowned and then shook his head.

"What's wrong?" Chelsea assistant coach and Chelsea star Zola asked.

"If my guess is correct," Sarri said with a calm expression, "the midfield will be very busy during the rest of the first half."

Zola soon understood what Sarri meant by "busy midfield".

Manchester United suddenly stepped up their fight in the midfield. The rest of the first half of the game can be described as robbing and being robbed. Chelsea's relatively beautiful offensive coordination was immediately torn to pieces.

It can be said that Manchester United has given up attacking and has only one purpose, and that is: chaos!

Let Chelsea get messy, let things get chaotic.

"Understood," Sarri said to Zola, "I know what this guy is going to do, I know how he is going to do it, but there is nothing we can do."

"This is the way a gangster plays." Zola said angrily.

………………

In the end, at the end of the first half, neither side was able to score again, and the score was temporarily fixed at 1:2, with the home team Chelsea 1:2 the visiting team Manchester United.

"Manchester United played very smart, Mourinho is very smart." Martin Taylor praised Manchester United while drinking water in the commentary box. "Let's not talk about their two goals. Let's just talk about Mourinho after leading 2:1. Rinho immediately asked the team to change their tactics and suddenly stepped up the fight. This made Chelsea, who had played well in the first half, very uncomfortable. "

"In my opinion, Mourinho is one of the current active coaches who is best at on-the-spot scheduling and adjustments." Andy Gray also praised, "And one thing is very interesting, as a coach who has coached Chelsea twice , Mourinho seems to have a very good idea of ​​how to play Chelsea.”

Chelsea's players exited the field quickly, and this was arguably their best half of the game against Mourinho's Manchester United. The half-time score of 1:2 is not unacceptable. But considering the special significance of this game, this puts Chelsea players under great pressure, like a big stone in their hearts.

The Manchester United players left chatting and laughing.

Mourinho was waiting on the sidelines. He high-fived and hugged every player who left the field, smiling like flowers.

"Well done!" Mourinho and Bruno high-fived.

Not only that, the two walked at the end and chatted while walking. Mainly Mourinho was talking and Bruno was listening and nodding.
