Chapter 210 The Little Lion Is Here to Teach the Young Players Again [Please Subscribe! ]

"I knew it! I knew you would definitely see my movement!"

When being hugged by the sturdy Lukaku, Li Ang had to pat his arm, signaling him not to be so excited.

"Fourth goal of the season?"

Li Ang asked Lukaku. If he remembered correctly, this goal should be Lukaku's fourth goal this season.

"Yes, this is the third goal in the league. I also scored a goal in the last round of the Champions League!"

Lukaku raised his big head with some pride.

He played as a substitute in Chelsea this season, but his goal efficiency was not low at all. It is indeed worthy of pride. After all, he is still a young man who has just turned 20.

At this moment, commentators from various countries are also praising Lukaku's performance.

If you add the goals in the previous two national team games, Lukaku has scored in three consecutive games recently.

Lukaku's efficient performance in the club and the national team, as well as his outstanding performance after the transformation this season, are all worth mentioning.

As for Li Ang's performance of getting another assist, commentators from all countries except China are now very calm.

No commentator still regards Li Ang as a rising star.

When the Premier League was only in the eighth round, Li Ang had already handed in five goals and six assists in three battles.

You know, this is Li Ang's debut season in the Premier League.

Faced with such a data, what else needs to be said?

Li Ang is already a well-deserved midfield superstar in the current football world.

So facing his outstanding performance, whether it is the commentators or the fans of various countries, they are now accustomed to it.

It is normal and necessary for Li Ang to play like this against Cardiff City, which is also in line with his current tactics and reputation as the core of the Blues.

"Don't slack off. Let's try to score a second goal in the first half. Let's run and put more pressure on the opponent. Their defensive ability on the wing is very average..."

After the celebration, Li Ang still warned his teammates as usual.

At this moment, Medel, who was very close to Li Ang, raised his eyebrows. He obviously heard what Li Ang said.

But he didn't do anything extreme in the end.

If he was still in Sevilla, Medel might have to ask Li Ang for an explanation.

But in Cardiff City...

Knowing that he came here for a high salary, Medel had to admit in his heart that what Li Ang said was so right!

The defensive ability of his new teammates was just like shit.

But everyone is for money, so it's not bad to play together for a season or two temporarily.

So Medel pretended not to hear it in the end.

He made sure that he had done his best and fulfilled his duties in the position he was defending.

Do you really have to play football for a club where there is no chance of getting honors?

That costs extra money!

There are many players in Cardiff City who think like Medel.

They certainly have professional qualities, but it is definitely unrealistic to ask them to fight for Cardiff City.

After the defensive strategy of defending the center line failed, the wing could not withstand Chelsea's repeated attacks.

Seeing this, Cardiff City's head coach Mike could only move the two wing forwards forward and change to 4-2-3-1, trying to press forward and attack.

Medel, who is good at attacking and defending, was also directly promoted to the position of central midfielder by Mike.

In this way, Li Ang and Medel were completely out of position.

Li Ang felt very happy about this.

It was not because he felt relieved that he no longer had to face Medel's defense.

But because he was happy to see the gate of Cardiff City's center line wide open.

Now he didn't have to play in person, Oscar could go in and out of Cardiff City's back waistline.

In the 37th minute of the first half, Oscar received Li Ang's advancing pass.

After breaking into the penalty area of ​​Cardiff City, Oscar decisively knocked the ball horizontally and assisted De Bruyne to push the ball near the penalty spot in the penalty area of ​​Cardiff City!

Cardiff City's previous performance bubble was punctured in less than half a game after encountering a real top Premier League team!

Even at the beginning of the second half, Cardiff City assisted midfielder partner Muchi to score a long shot and scored a goal.

But this goal did not help Cardiff City's final defeat.

After Leon and Hazard were replaced in advance, Oscar and Ramires, who came on as substitutes, scored goals for Chelsea.

In the end, Chelsea won a 4-1 victory at Cardiff City's home ground!

The haze of public opinion that Chelsea was tied by Norwich in early October was swept away with this victory.

Some English media who had complained about Mourinho's bold use of rotation before the game chose to shut up after the game.

The controversial rotation suddenly became Mourinho's far-sighted decision.

The main players of Chelsea, who have been more fully rested, will have more physical strength to face Schalke 04 in the next Champions League focus game.

This is definitely bad news for Schalke 04, which was tied by Basel away in the last round of the Champions League group stage.

On October 21, 2013, the entire Chelsea team flew to Germany one day in advance to get a glimpse of the field in advance.

And the German media also warmly "welcomed" Li Ang and Mourinho.

In the past two seasons, Mourinho's Real Madrid ruined all the thoughts of the German football world about the Champions League.

And the German media's most impressive figure in Mourinho's Real Madrid is naturally Mourinho, and the second choice is basically Li Ang and Ronaldo.

It is inappropriate to simply say that the impression brought by this deep impression is hate.

This complex emotion contains more helplessness and pain of the German media.

Whether it is the double kill of Bayern in the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2012, or the four-way pressure on Dortmund in the 2012-2013 season, and the final restraint of Bayern to win the championship.

Mourinho's tactical design, Ronaldo's difficulty in limiting, and Li Ang's suppression of the midfield of the two teams of Bayern and Dortmund...

The German media can still clearly tell every detail.

And just when they were suffering this summer and were still thinking about revenge on Mourinho's Real Madrid, Mourinho's Real Madrid disbanded itself.

This dramatic result made many German media and fans feel very complicated.

Finally, they don't have to face the big devil team in the Champions League anymore.

But unfortunately, this big devil team was not defeated by any foreign enemy, and they will not give their defeated opponents the opportunity to challenge them again.

This regretful and fortunate mentality tortured the German media for several months.

Until today, Mourinho and Li Ang came to North Rhine-Westphalia again.

Schalke 04 cannot represent the current peak level of German football, and Li Ang and Mourinho cannot be the representatives of the former Mourinho Real Madrid.

But in this familiar area, the German media quickly boiled up when they saw the German team facing Mourinho and Li Ang's team again.

For Mourinho and Li Ang, they also felt a lot of familiarity in their hearts when they came to North Rhine-Westphalia again.

This familiarity did not emerge because of Schalke 04.

It was simply because of Schalke 04's good neighbor, the Hornets Dortmund, who caused a lot of trouble for Real Madrid's Champions League defense last season.

When Li Ang went to Schalke to visit the stadium that afternoon, he could even see a few Hornets fans waving Dortmund scarves on both sides of the street, cheering for the bus they were sitting on.

Li Ang couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene, and he felt very strange.

Before coming to Germany, he never thought that Dortmund fans would cheer for him.

You know, when he was a guest at the Westfalen Stadium last season, he was the most disgusting person among the Hornets fans.

It seems that the theory of "flexible and friendly" among the three countries of China, Japan and South Korea in East Asia is very applicable all over the world~

The players in the Chelsea team did not feel much nervous about the upcoming match against Schalke 04.

First, because Schalke 04's current performance in the Bundesliga is relatively average, and second, because Schalke 04 was tied by Basel with all its main players.

Everything is afraid of comparison. Chelsea almost capsized against Basel before, and that was because they used a rotation lineup.

Later, Mourinho replaced Li Ang, and Basel was no longer magical.

Of course, in terms of strength evaluation, Chelsea's players still think that Schalke 04 will be stronger than Basel, but not by a level.

So they don't have to worry about not being able to beat Schalke 04.

It is of course a good thing to have such confidence. When holding a tactical meeting in the hotel where they stayed, Mourinho also instilled the belief that they must win this battle to all the players.

So the next day, when they made full preparations and went to Schalke, the whole Chelsea team was full of confidence and fighting spirit!

But Li Ang, who is familiar with Mourinho, knows that there will definitely be a turning point.

Because Mourinho always looks arrogant when facing the media.

But when preparing for the game and pre-match training, he wants all his disciples to be vigilant to face the opponent.

After the pre-match warm-up that night, Mourinho suddenly launched a storm in the locker room as expected.

All kinds of ridicules against the young players in Chelsea have blinded their own eyes with their self-confidence.

Hazard, De Bruyne and Bertrand, who had not had more experience working with Mourinho before, were all confused.

Mourinho was very happy to praise them for their confidence and momentum last night, so why did he suddenly turn against them before today's game?

Based on Mourinho's dominance on the training ground and in the locker room in the past, all the young Chelsea players felt a little aggrieved, but they did not talk back.

Most of the young Chelsea players could not hear the warning mixed in Mourinho's ridicule at this moment.

But obviously, the idea of ​​looking down on Schalke 04 in their hearts also disappeared in an instant.

Li Ang and the Chelsea veterans, who were used to this kind of scene, put on a serious and serious look on their faces, but they had already laughed in their hearts.

They all went through this at the beginning.

To put it bluntly, Mourinho's face is completely like a dog, changing at any time.

But the effect is also quite good.

Maybe for a while, the young players will feel aggrieved and confused about Mourinho's intentions.

But this emotional awkwardness is far better than the regret and pain after suffering from underestimating the enemy.

And 5 minutes later, the Schalke 04 players inexplicably took on the anger from the young Chelsea players.

Mourinho pua them, they don't know who to pua, so naturally they can only find Schalke 04 players to practice hard!

Among them, Hazard and De Bruyne were the worst!

The Belgian wingers showed an extremely strong desire to attack as soon as they came on the court today.

I don't know if it was the blessing of the Bundesliga.

De Bruyne, who has been more threatening with passing in the Premier League this season, seems to have turned into a dribbling demon in this game.

Even Li Ang didn't expect that De Bruyne, who was not very good at dribbling, could still perform so well in terms of passing.

Seeing that the two wingers of his team had suppressed Schalke 04 not long after the start of the game.

Li Ang was also happy to be free, constantly distributing the ball to Hazard and De Bruyne.

Because Ramires was his partner in the central midfielder position today, Chelsea's central interception ability was stronger than usual.

Lost the ball? Then just get it back!

Li Ang had already got the ball back twice in the first 10 minutes of today's game, and contributed a wonderful defensive interception!

Boateng, who transferred from AC Milan to Schalke 04 as a center forward this summer.

At this moment, he had to retreat to the midfield to help his midfield brothers transfer the ball.

He was afraid that Li Ang would continue to steal the ball unscrupulously.

His younger brother Max Meyer and Draxler, who just tried to go to the middle but was severely punished by Li Ang, will have psychological trauma.

Before the game, Li Ang, Ibrahimovic and Boateng were still talking and laughing, high-fiving and hugging.

As a result, during the game, Li Ang was the first to turn his face and ignore him. This time, he kicked hard and looked at Boateng with twitching eyes.

Compared with the previous seasons, the strength of Schalke 04 has not declined much, but the experience of playing important games has declined a lot.

The reason is actually the same as Chelsea.

A group of young players in the frontcourt have emerged and replaced the original veterans. Naturally, the experience and performance of fighting hard battles are not as good as before.

This is also one of the important reasons why Li Ang is more willing to consolidate the defense in the middle today.

He likes to teach football newcomers a lesson the most~

Whether you are a so-called outstanding newcomer in La Liga, Premier League or Bundesliga, as long as you meet Li Ang, you will definitely be taught a lesson first.

Clemens and Maxmaier, the two young guys, learned their lesson after suffering several losses.

They were not Li Ang's opponents in one-on-one matches, so they just went around him. After all, the game was a team-to-team match, not a solo match between individuals.

It was normal that they could not beat Li Ang for the time being, just keep a calm mind.

As a result, their friend Draxler was not convinced, just like Kovacic at the beginning, he was a fool and wanted to fight Li Ang with the ball!

In the 15th minute of the first half, it was because of Draxler's reckless duel that Li Ang easily penetrated Schalke 04's midfield defense after intercepting the ball on the right side of the midfield!

After pushing all the way to the hinterland of Schalke 04's defensive third zone, Li Ang passed the ball to De Bruyne who raised his hand on the right side.

Schalke 04 midfielder Neustadt, who had been beaten by De Bruyne twice before, subconsciously stepped back two steps and stared at De Bruyne's next move.

As a result, he didn't expect that it was his retreat that allowed De Bruyne to adjust his kick calmly and send a long arc pass to the Schalke 04 penalty area!

Ibrahimovic, who was actively running, saw the opportunity and had already shaken off Hevedes and rushed to the landing point of the football.

However, Matip, who was also tall, was the first to block his position at this moment, making it impossible for Ibrahimovic to compete for the header calmly.

"Zlatan!"

A familiar roar appeared in Ibrahimovic's ears.

It was also this roar that made Ibrahimovic change his idea of ​​forcing a header without any thought.

After tightening his waist and abdomen, Ibrahimovic headed the lob that De Bruyne sent into the penalty area against Matip's defensive interference, and headed it directly outside the penalty area!

The football jumped again after landing in the arc area of ​​Schalke 04's penalty area.

And a blue figure wearing No. 10 also entered the eyes of all the fans who were paying attention to this game!

He drew his bow and arrow, and his whole body tilted slightly to the right, looking very relaxed.

His strong core and flexibility allowed him to stabilize his body, and then he suddenly exerted force with his left calf, and his tense left foot instep kicked the football diagonally!

The moment the instep touched the football, the huge force changed the direction of the football again.

The football, which was almost not rotating, whistled and flew straight to the upper left corner of the Schalke 04 goal!

The 34-year-old German goalkeeper Hildebrand inevitably reacted a little slower.

His save action seemed to be in slow motion in front of the flying speed of the football.

The Schalke 04 fans at the scene did not see the flight trajectory of the football.

A huge sound first reached their ears, vibrating their minds and bringing a very bad sense of tension to their brains.

Then, in the Schalke stadium, the almost crazy cheers of nearly 10,000 Chelsea fans swept the whole stadium!

The football, which had turned into a residual image before, now bounced quietly into the goal of Schalke 04!

And as Hildebrand landed in a slightly embarrassed posture.

Tens of thousands of Schalke 04 fans at the scene couldn't help but look at the figure of the Chelsea player who had opened his arms and ran towards the corner flag area with a roar!

That was Chelsea's No. 10.

That was Leon!

The other Chelsea players also rushed forward excitedly!

Leon's high spirits formed a sharp contrast with Draxler who was looking at him with his hands on his hips in frustration.

When countless fans saw this scene, they suddenly had the same thought in their hearts:

The little lion is here to teach the young players again!
