Chapter 207 Liverpool Robs the Rich and Helps the Poor, Chelsea Is Generous and Kind [Please Subscribe! ]

"The ball is in! Li Ang! In the 13th minute of the first half, Li Ang opened the scoring for Chelsea!

Mourinho scored the first goal of the game in just three minutes after adjusting the offensive tactics! Mourinho's adjustments always work wonders!"

"Hehe... Chelsea should thank Atkinson for his whistle today, which is completely unfavorable to Tottenham's technical style of play.

Chelsea rushed to the center line and the two wings, with a center forward Ibrahimovic and Li Ang, which directly stunned Tottenham's defense."

Zhan Jun and Coach Zhang were very excited to see Li Ang open the scoring again and help Chelsea score.

For Chelsea fans, it is even more worth celebrating to see their team take the lead at White Hart Lane!

White Hart Lane may be a devil's home stadium that is difficult to conquer for other Premier League giants.

But this is not the case for Chelsea.

They have not tasted the taste of failure in this stadium for many years.

So before the game, Terry was full of confidence when encouraging his teammates, and there was a reason for that.

The Chelsea players celebrating at White Hart Lane seemed very excited, and Terry even shouted:

"It feels so good to score in this stadium!"

Of course, the Tottenham fans in the stands couldn't hear what Terry said at the moment.

But seeing his proud face and his constant celebration, Tottenham fans were also furious and booed with all their might!

White Hart Lane, which can only accommodate less than 40,000 spectators, erupted at this moment with a huge momentum that 50,000 or 60,000 fans might not be able to create.

But Terry seemed to have not heard these boos, and was still encouraging his fans and teammates to cheer and celebrate!

The strong atmosphere of opposition and gunpowder instantly spread at the scene.

Even the new players who joined Tottenham this season were indignant in their hearts!

After all, the whole team was humiliated, which was equivalent to humiliating themselves.

Even if it was not for the title of the derby, just to restore their dignity, they had to fight back at home!

This is certainly not good news for Chelsea, but Chelsea's players and Mourinho don't care.

It's just something that will happen sooner or later.

In the games between Chelsea and Tottenham and Arsenal and Tottenham, any factors can be missing, but there will be no lack of confrontation and conflict in the game.

In the subsequent restarted games, Li Ang also felt the drastic changes in the mentality and emotions of his old acquaintances.

After all, they are all professional players. Having a good relationship in private is a private matter. Everyone wants to win in the arena and everyone wants to be the final winner.

Especially when they have all lost to Li Ang before - most people have lost more than once.

So they are more eager to win back.

There may be some strength gap between Tottenham and Chelsea now.

But no matter what, it is much smaller than the gap between their original team and Real Madrid.

If you can see hope, you have to fight harder!

After the game resumed, whether it was Eriksson and Soldado on the offensive end, or Paulinho and Vertonghen who were more invested on the defensive end.

They were more active in their scrambling and running.

Even if they could not immediately grab the ball or run out of offensive opportunities, their positive attitude still caused a lot of trouble for Chelsea's offense and defense.

Seeing this, Li Ang simply retreated to his own half and let Lampard switch positions to the front midfielder position.

The two of them switched positions very naturally, and they didn't feel awkward at all after the switch, after all, they all played back to their old positions.

With more abundant physical strength, Li Ang and Matic directly cleared a vacuum area in Chelsea's half!

Eriksen, who looked a little embarrassed, could only temporarily avoid the sharp edge with Townsend and Sigurdsson, and retreated to reorganize the attack.

And Li Ang, who kicked back to the defensive midfielder, also made many neutral Premier League fans secretly smack their lips!

The double defensive midfielder combination of Li Ang and Matic seemed to be invincible in defense!

Technical and power-based offensive players were not effective in their defense areas.

Lampard, who saved a lot of physical energy, also used his rich experience to organize Chelsea's frontcourt offense in an orderly manner.

Chelsea, who had a one-goal lead, was not in a hurry at the moment, and it seemed that they wanted to use slow fire to attack Tottenham.

Boas stood on the sidelines and rubbed his chin with a headache.

Of course, he knew what his former teacher Mourinho meant.

If the side behind on the field wanted to equalize the score as soon as possible, then without taking risks and making key tactical decisions, they could only pray for the favor of the goddess of luck.

Mourinho was forcing him to make a decision early. Should he increase his offensive power at the risk of a vacant midfield and backcourt defense, or should he seek opportunities in a stable manner?

After a little consideration, Boas did not hesitate too much and gave his answer!

The reason why he parted ways with Mourinho in the past was because Boas wanted to take the path of technical attack.

In other words, at that time, Boas no longer agreed with Mourinho's way of winning.

And Guardiola's subsequent successful model encouraged Boas to go to the Portuguese Super League to verify his tactical ideas.

This is actually understandable, because Guardiola and the Barcelona he led were indeed the most watched coaches and teams in world football at that time.

The passing and controlling style of play was also popular all over the world at that time.

But few people would have thought that Mourinho would later lead an old revenge army to defeat Barcelona in person and return to the top of Europe!

When Mourinho left for Real Madrid and personally created the Mourinho Real Madrid dynasty, the ambitious Villas-Boas was experiencing the failure of transforming Chelsea and the pain of being kicked out.

Since then, Boas has grown a lot and has walked a long way on the road of self-reflection.

However, after self-reflection and apologizing to Mourinho, Boas also understood the football path he wanted to take and the tactical concept he wanted to implement.

Technology and passion!

This is his way!

When Boas stood on the sidelines and firmly made tactical instructions to press forward, the Tottenham fans at the White Hart Lane Stadium were also excited!

Yes, no matter how much hostility they received from opponents in London, no matter how much they were ridiculed by opponents in the same league in today's era.

The genes of advocating offense in the blood of Tottenham will never change!

Mourinho smiled with relief.

Even if the answer given by Boas is not the most perfect in Mourinho's mind.

But Mourinho knows that his disciple has embarked on his own football path!

The offensive power of Tottenham under full attack should not be underestimated.

Even though Soldado doesn't seem to be very adaptable to the rhythm of the Premier League, his smart running still helps other Tottenham attacking players to open up space.

After getting enough ball possession and attacking opportunities, Eriksen shined brightly in the front midfielder position.

However, it was not Tottenham who scored again, but Chelsea who had already resolutely played a fast counterattack!

With the interception and sweep of Leon and Matic, the chances of Tottenham's two wings to break into Chelsea's rib area are very few.

And when Leon, Lampard, and even Matic have an excellent long pass, the big Ibrahimovic who is nailed in Tottenham's half has become the death warrant of Tottenham's defense!

Today, Mourinho has used the tactics of the uncle in Milan.

In the counterattack, he didn't look for the two wings first, but tried to pass the ball to Ibrahimovic, and then let Ibrahimovic be the axis to radiate the entire offensive system.

Ibrahimovic is not selfish at all outside the penalty area, and he has a wide field of vision and excellent passing skills.

So as long as Hazard and Ramirez can get in place, Ibrahimovic's pass can always give the right amount of lead!

And no matter who Paulinho or Dembele is behind, they can't limit Ibrahimovic's stable ball possession and pass in one-on-one.

So Chelsea's counterattacks are more concise and efficient.

In the 37th minute of the first half, it was Ibrahimovic who protected the ball. He passed the ball to Hazard who was advancing from the bottom.

And after Leon and Ramirez covered him, Lampard who broke into the Tottenham penalty area became the most deadly point-grabbing person!

Lampard received Hazard's ground pass and pushed the ball into the goal lightly, successfully expanding Chelsea's lead to two goals!

But the most exciting thing came less than three minutes after all Chelsea players celebrated.

Tottenham relied on Eriksen's super high-quality free kick to tenaciously pull back a city!

Eriksen's free kick was an absolute 10-pointer, leaving Cech helpless.

The morale of the Tottenham players, which had been declining, was stubbornly raised again by this sudden goal!

As the first half was coming to an end, the situation on the field suddenly changed!

The emotions of the fans of Chelsea and Tottenham were like a roller coaster, and the neutral fans felt very satisfied watching it.

Boas excitedly and nervously slapped the ceiling of his bench and cheered for Eriksen's free kick.

At this moment, Mourinho also frowned slightly, signaling his players to return to the half-court to shrink their formation and maintain the lead until the end of the half.

Mourinho's slightly conservative attitude naturally once again met with dissatisfaction from many neutral fans.

Seeing his players' morale soar and ending the first half of the game in the siege of Chelsea, Boas was quite satisfied.

After returning to the locker room, Boas quickly made his tactical judgment.

He believed that Mourinho would first consolidate the defense in the middle in the second half, and then try to use the leading goal to continue counterattacking.

So he took the lead in making substitutions, replacing Townsend, who performed very mediocrely today, with Lamela.

The purpose was of course very clear, that is, to strengthen the offensive on the right side of his side at the beginning of the second half!

But what Villas-Boas or all the fans did not expect was that Mourinho also chose to make substitutions at the beginning of the second half.

And he directly replaced two players!

Bertrand replaced Ashley Cole, and De Bruyne replaced Ramires!

The intention of such substitutions was also very obvious, that is, Mourinho would not play defense and counterattack in the second half, he wanted to fight against Tottenham!

So Tottenham, who were planning to attack Chelsea's two wings, were quickly counterattacked by Chelsea!

Bertrand and De Bruyne, who came up in the second half, rushed very vigorously from the left and right!

In addition, at this moment, he and Lampard completed another position change, and Li Ang, who was almost promoted to the second striker position, was almost replaced.

Chelsea can be said to have sounded the clarion call for an offensive charge on all three fronts!

The defensive end was of course handed over to Matic and Lampard who assisted him in the defense.

In order to avoid Lampard's poor performance due to a serious decline in physical strength later.

Mourinho asked Essien to warm up on the sidelines early.

Chelsea's bold tactical adjustment completely caught Tottenham off guard.

With Soldado's average performance and almost no threat to Chelsea's defense, Tottenham's offense seemed to have a sense of gaining the upper hand but not scoring.

If the players who were partnering with Tottenham's striker at this time were still Berga and Adebayor.

Then Mourinho would never have made such a bold choice to play against Tottenham.

It's a pity that Tottenham spent 30 million to buy Soldado, who is not very suitable for the Premier League.

Then let these Tottenham players pass the ball to the Spanish center forward.

Under the rotation of Terry and David Luiz, this technical center forward who scored 30 goals last season now has difficulty in getting a chance to kick.

Mourinho is actually a little confused.

Spend 30 million?

Benteke from Aston Villa can be directly dug up in the Premier League.

This young Belgian center forward, last season, which was also his first Premier League season, handed over 23 goals and 6 assists in Aston Villa!

Looking at the league alone, he also scored 19 goals.

With 30 million, isn't it good to buy this young, black and hard center forward who has adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League and proved himself?

If Mourinho hadn't directly leveraged the corner of Paris Saint-Germain to buy Ibrahimovic in the summer window, he might really have taken action against Benteke.

Soldado is good and has good skills, but his body is still too disadvantageous in the Premier League.

After sighing for a while, Mourinho once again signaled his disciples to work harder and break through Tottenham's defense as soon as possible.

So Villas-Boas could only watch.

When both sides created similar opportunities, their forwards repeatedly wasted good shooting opportunities, while Chelsea's attackers repeatedly threatened Lori's goal.

At this moment, Tottenham was really in a difficult situation. If they adjusted their tactics, Tottenham's players might lose their spirits first.

Villas-Boas had no choice but to scan the bench and finally let the young players Harry Kane and Defoe, who looked a little thin, go to the sidelines to warm up.

With Adebayor injured and almost having to rest for three months, Villas-Boas only had these two center forwards available without Soldado.

On the Chelsea side, Ibrahimovic successfully scored his third goal.

Boas then let Defoe and Kane, who had finished warming up, play together, replacing Sigurdsson and Soldado.

Defoe, who was almost excluded from the new season team building plan by Boas because of his age, used his rich experience in the penalty area to quickly help Tottenham to score a goal on the offensive end!

But just when Boas was overjoyed and wanted to encourage the Tottenham players on the field to fight for the final equalizer.

Li Ang stood up again!

In the 78th minute of the second half, Li Ang chased back and intercepted the ball at Harry Kane's feet, and turned around and started the attack mode.

After running for 40 meters with Eriksen who was chasing back, Li Ang finally seized the opportunity. Taking advantage of Michael Dawson's attack on defense, he sent a fatal through ball!

De Bruyne, who broke into the Tottenham penalty area, deceived Lori with his eyes when there was almost no one guarding him, and calmly pushed the ball into the near corner of the goal!

When the ball crossed the line again, De Bruyne, who had completely killed the game, took off his jersey excitedly and rushed towards Mourinho on the sidelines!

Vertonghen, who had just returned to his own penalty area, also had his legs softened and fell directly on the grass.

It's not his fault. After all, the team needs offensive personnel. The two midfielders are almost inserted into Chelsea's penalty area as forwards.

He can only press across the center line and play a guest role as a midfielder.

Boas looked at his disciples on the field who had tried their best, and could only smile bitterly and shook his head repeatedly.

There was no way. He and Levy had both made a mistake in this summer window. They bought the wrong striker and couldn't score!

There were no fewer offensive opportunities, but Tottenham, who were weak in finishing, could only swallow the bitter fruit of 2-4 at home.

The whole Chelsea team naturally celebrated fiercely.

However, such a tough battle was won through fierce confrontation and attack.

For Chelsea, who now has many veterans in the team, the sequelae are quite large.

Three days later, in the Champions League, the Chelsea team, which traveled to Romania, fought for 90 minutes before completely defeating Steaua Bucharest, who had parked the bus in an attempt to defend, 2-0.

Three days later, Chelsea was successfully sniped by the Canaries at Carrow Road in their away game against Norwich!

Looking at the final score of 1-1 and the Norwich fans celebrating wildly at Carrow Road, Chelsea's players could only shake their heads helplessly.

At the same time, the news that Liverpool lost to Southampton at home spread throughout the English football world.

The fans of the two teams, who were in the same boat, instantly had a common topic.

Liverpool robs the rich to help the poor, while Chelsea is kind and generous.

My form is finally back tonight!

I will continue to write, and I will post the first update at noon tomorrow!
