Chapter 241 Winning Four Goals Doesn't Count as Winning, Li Ang Is Not a Human Being [Please Subscribe, Big Guys! ]

Verratti was a little anxious. He waved his arms and cheered up his teammates.

His desire to win was very strong. Chelsea played very well today, but in Verratti's opinion, the current score could not really reflect the strength of Paris Saint-Germain.

They could have played the game better and created more opportunities.

Even if they were really weaker than Chelsea, they couldn't be so weak. This was not a normal Paris Saint-Germain!

At this moment, some players on the Paris field had similar ideas to Verratti, such as Lucas Jr., Motta, and Silva.

They all felt very unconvinced. Even if they would lose in the end, they would lose to Chelsea in their home court without any resistance in this way. This was a result they absolutely could not accept!

But some players still wanted to fight, and some players were dissatisfied, so naturally some players felt depressed and indifferent.

272 was depressed and upset.

Higuain naturally felt that he was purely implicated in the feud between 272 and Li Ang, and was innocently shot.

And now he can't control the rhythm of the game at all, and the midfield defense was also defeated by Chelsea's two counterattacks.

Higuain is not optimistic about the final result of this game, and he feels a little indifferent.

Other Paris Saint-Germain players want to fight and have the motivation to fight.

Because they have nothing in the Champions League honors, their desire for the Champions League is still very strong.

But Higuain has already won two Champions League titles, and he has completed the defense of the Champions League after the reform with Real Madrid.

In terms of clubs, he has also won six championships. If there is any honor missing, he now only lacks a heavyweight championship trophy at the national team level.

In terms of clubs, the members of Mourinho's Real Madrid in the past two seasons can be said to be big winners in life.

So he is not eager to go further in the Champions League now.

He naturally has professional qualities, and he will do his best to help Paris Saint-Germain after taking this money.

But he will definitely not work hard on the field to lead the reversal miracle.

To put it bluntly, he chose to come to Paris Saint-Germain to get a high salary, enjoy the joy of football, and enjoy a good material life.

If he still wants to continue to fight for honors in the football world, he can choose to go to Juventus, which tried hard to seduce him in the previous summer window.

Or Bayern Munich, which still wanted to continue to upgrade its forward line at that time.

Going to these two teams, no matter how you look at it, can show his ambition more than coming to Paris Saint-Germain.

The little smoker who has won the championship in Real Madrid in the past two seasons has long lost the ambition he had when he transferred to Real Madrid in the past.

Paris Saint-Germain can trust Higuain's stable ability to bully weak players 100% in the French Ligue 1, but forget it in the adverse situation of the Champions League.

Honor hunger is still very important for a player.

Without this desire for honor, and the stimulation of the championship trophy to his nerves, even the most professional players cannot lead the team to create miracles.

Yes, at this point, if Paris Saint-Germain wants to score three goals in a row to turn the tables, they can only pray for a miracle.

However, Blanco, who stood on the sidelines with his hands on his hips and a serious face, did not believe that a miracle would happen to his team.

He could see that his team was a little bit discouraged.

So he called three players to warm up on the sidelines!

Cabaye, Pastore, Mené!

A defensive midfielder, an offensive midfielder, and a striker.

Blanco used this method to directly express his dissatisfaction with the team's offensive and midfield defensive quality.

Although the Paris executives have always required that Higuain and 272 must be used in the starting lineup.

But if he is not satisfied with the performance of these two people during the game, Blanco still has the right to replace them directly.

After scanning the Chelsea players who were celebrating with high fives, the live camera turned around and aimed at 272 and Higuain, who had performed mediocrely before.

Although the stay time was not long, after one or two seconds, it switched to other PSG players.

But this focus order is also very interesting.

After the game started again, 272 finally calmed down.

He did not deliberately avoid Li Ang to play the game. He retreated honestly when he should retreat and helped Verratti share the tactical task of organizing the ball.

And when it was time to advance, he was able to insert in time.

His unpleasant expression showed his mood at the moment, but his compromise also showed that he was still holding back.

He did not want to be replaced directly by Blanco during the halftime break!

Mourinho also made the first tactical adjustment in the first half at this moment, and Chelsea began to shrink the formation and play defensive counterattacks.

The main reason was that Chelsea had been actively defensively pressing PSG before.

Li Ang's physical fitness is very good, but other Chelsea players have also reached the time to slow down and save their energy for the second half of the game.

So Li Ang returned to the position of defensive midfielder, and partnered with Matic to guard the top of their own penalty area.

He and 272 were once again successfully matched.

However, compared to when the game just started, most neutral fans are now not interested in the match between Li Ang and 272.

Since Li Ang scored his second goal in this game, there is no point in forcing a comparison between him and 272.

The difference is clear!

What is there to compare now!

Who lost more ball possession? Who was invisible on the court for a longer time?

Even the fans of Paris Saint-Germain couldn't stand it.

Even if they want to defend 272, they can only use these similar words to avoid the main point:

272 is actually a good player. Compared with most offensive midfielders in football, he can have the upper hand and his data is also good.

Forget about comparing with Li Ang. Li Ang should not be compared with pure offensive midfielders now. This is simply bullying.

Li Ang is now a superstar of another level of strength!

The fans of Paris Saint-Germain have personally felt the powerlessness of many Premier League fans when watching their team play against Chelsea this season.

The French commentator didn't even have much confidence to say "equalize the score".

Chelsea can rest assured to fight back with a huge advantage of temporarily leading by two goals.

But Paris Saint-Germain is enduring the torment of the game.

Fortunately, the referee on duty was very considerate and blew the whistle to end the half-time game within half a minute after the regular game time of the first half.

All the players on the field of Paris Saint-Germain hurriedly returned to the player tunnel.

On the Chelsea side, Li Ang took the lead and encouraged the Chelsea fans on the scene, and then walked back to the locker room slowly with his teammates, hugging and high-fiving.

Mourinho did not steal the limelight from his own players at this time. He and Holland walked into the locker room early and moved the tactical board to the center of the locker room.

After all the starting players of Chelsea returned to the locker room and rested for three or four minutes with laughter, he cleared his throat and roughly explained the changes in tactics in the second half of the game.

Li Ang listened to the tactics explained by Mourinho, and he was relieved when he learned that Mourinho did not require the entire Chelsea team to be conservative and maintain the score of 2-0 in the second half.

"Let's beat them here today! We'll give them another big gift when we return to Stamford Bridge in the second round!"

After Mourinho finished his tactical arrangements, Li Ang stood up, clapping and inciting his teammates to continue to attack actively in the second half and continue to stab Paris Saint-Germain!

Hearing this, Holland smiled and shook his head, while the rest of the Chelsea players were cheering and whistling in unrest!

"Come on! Boys, just like Li Ang said, let's just eliminate all the suspense of promotion today!

Knock over the Parisians! We'll enjoy the fun of the game slowly in the second round!"

Without Terry, Lampard, as the captain, was also shouting loudly to encourage the morale of the whole team again!

Mourinho was completely different from the tyrant image he usually showed to the outside world at this moment.

He just put his hands behind his back and happily watched the passionate shouting of his disciples in the locker room.

Generally at this time, Mourinho likes to step aside and let the players complete the morale mobilization themselves.

Just like at the award ceremony after winning the championship, he would quietly step aside and let the shining stage completely give the players.

The halftime break was over soon, and after getting Li Ang's promise to treat the whole team to a big meal when he returned to London.

Chelsea's main players were all smiling and energetic and stepped onto the court again!

In contrast, the Paris Saint-Germain players on the other side were much more silent.

Their expressions were a little solemn, even serious, but there was not much confidence and determination in their eyes, and the whole team looked a little wrong.

After all, Blanco did not make a direct substitution adjustment during the halftime break. So the 433 formation of Paris Saint-Germain did not change.

This made Mourinho's tactical plan arranged during the halftime break useless, but it was better news for the entire Chelsea team.

After all, if Paris Saint-Germain did not make any tactical or personnel changes.

Then they can continue to use the rhythm of the first half to deal with Paris Saint-Germain, and there is no need to adjust the tactical details.

Even if Paris Saint-Germain makes tactical changes in the future, Chelsea's players on the field believe that their coaching staff will come up with targeted tactical adjustment plans in a short time.

At the beginning of the second half, Li Ang saw that 272 seemed to have really returned to normal. He honestly partnered with Verratti and carefully organized the attack of Paris Saint-Germain. While he was surprised, he also changed positions with Lampard again.

Chelsea will not force the rhythm of the game with Paris Saint-Germain at the beginning of the second half.

But Li Ang's tactical freedom is very high.

Matic and Lampard are responsible for the defense in the midfield.

Li Ang pressed to the vicinity of the midline alone, and continued to interfere with the organization of 272 and Verratti with Hazard and De Bruyne. Of course, there is no problem.

As long as Li Ang feels it is necessary and can play an effective defensive pressure, Mourinho will not have any objection at all.

Because the whole team is not pressing high at this moment, Li Ang increased his running sweep range to continue to put pressure on the two midfield organizers of Paris Saint-Germain.

Hazard and De Bruyne can only play a defensive role to assist him in double-teaming.

The defensive pressure and investment of the two of them were not very great.

It was basically Li Ang who was running at all costs, trying his best to delay the midfielder's passing and offensive rhythm of Paris Saint-Germain.

Such a single-player defense mode naturally could not create too many steals and effective interception data very intuitively.

But all the fans who watched this game had to admit that Li Ang did use his running interference to successfully slow down Paris Saint-Germain's offense.

After the 60th minute of the second half, Blanco saw that the speed of the attack still could not be raised, and he immediately became anxious.

He started to make the first substitution adjustment of the game!

272 and Higuain did not leave the field. Blanco chose to replace the defensive midfielder Motta, who was a serious defensive midfielder in Paris Saint-Germain, with striker Mené!

As soon as he made this substitution adjustment, all the fans and commentators knew that Paris Saint-Germain was going to go all the way on the offensive end!

As expected, Menez went straight to the front line and formed a double striker with Higuain after he came on the court, and Paris Saint-Germain also changed the formation to 424!

Normally speaking, it might be better to change to 442 at this time.

The two wingers of Paris Saint-Germain can not only break through and cross, but also retreat to protect the midfielder whose defense is becoming increasingly weak after Motta leaves the court.

However, Lavezzi and Lucas Jr. are still quite close to Chelsea's penalty area, and there is no intention to change to play as wing forwards.

Blanco's desperate spirit won Mourinho's respect.

So Mourinho also made his own substitutions accordingly.

Essien, who had not started for a long time, finished warming up at this moment and was sent on by Mourinho to replace Lampard.

Of course, he will continue to play as a defensive midfielder when he comes on the court, and Chelsea's defensive ability in the midfield and backfield has been further strengthened.

Li Ang still nailed in front of the two organizing midfielders of Paris Saint-Germain, even though the offensive style of Paris Saint-Germain has become simple and clear at this time, and the ball can be smoothly given to the wing even if it does not pass through the midfield.

But Li Ang still has no idea of ​​retreating, he is nailed to the center line, as if Chelsea's backcourt defense no longer needs him.

But in fact, Paris Saint-Germain's offensive is still quite fierce at this moment, and the striker Mené has a very good ability to make the ball.

So even if 272 can't make a threatening pass in time, Mené, who received the pass from his teammates on the wing, can also be used as a small front midfielder, and his presence can also help Higuain open up space for running.

In the past two seasons, Higuain has slowly climbed to the peak of his career. Don't look at the fact that the little smoker has been slowly robbed of his starting position by Ben Ma in Real Madrid in the past two seasons.

But if he is given enough firing rights and tactics are designed around him, his excellent running and superb shooting skills are enough to make him a threat that all defenders in the current football world must be afraid of!

After Blanco changed his formation, Higuain had three chances to shoot in just ten minutes!

Two of the shots hit the Chelsea goal frame, which was quite threatening and directly tested Cech!

Higuain's three shots made many Chelsea fans in front of the TV nervous.

But when the game reached the 70th minute of the second half. When Kalas attacked and intercepted the cross pass pushed by Menez to Higuain, Chelsea fans were excited again!

Kalas did not delay in handling the ball by himself. He knocked the ball forward to Matic who raised his hand to signal.

And Matic also quickly took the ball and turned around, and then passed the ball to Essien who had already started to move forward!

Essien's familiar figure dribbling the ball made countless Chelsea fans recall the peak years when African buffaloes dominated the Premier League.

Essien now naturally no longer has the strength of his peak period.

But when he came on as a substitute for 30 minutes in the second half and faced a group of opponents with severely depleted energy, Essien's advance seemed quite threatening!

His speed is not as fast as when he was young, but his confrontation ability is still at the top level in football.

At least at this moment, facing Verratti's interception, Essien still managed to avoid losing the ball relatively easily, and steadily passed the ball to Li Ang's feet in the Paris half.

Compared with the first half, Paris Saint-Germain, whose midfield interception ability was further weakened at this moment, was directly beaten by Chelsea's counterattack!

Li Ang, who received the ball, almost faced the Paris Saint-Germain's back line!

Although there was a 272 following him, everyone knew his defensive ability.

Even the most optimistic Paris fans did not expect 272 to be able to stop Li Ang in a one-on-one situation.

Li Ang naturally would not be polite to 272. He did not even make a fake move. After receiving Essien's pass, he just accelerated with a lying ball!

In the penalty area of ​​Paris Saint-Germain, Alex and Diego Silva were still retreating.

Maxwell's assists were very large before, and he was still desperately chasing back.

Only Van der Wiel was able to get back to the edge of his own penalty area, but he was also restrained by Hazard, so he did not dare to directly withdraw to defend.

So Leon was fearless.

Seeing that he was about to enter the firing range again, Silva sighed in his heart and could only attack in advance to intercept his old teammate in the Milan period!

And Leon was waiting for this moment. When he saw Silva step out of the penalty area line, Leon stopped and passed the football under his feet directly into the penalty area of ​​​​Paris Saint-Germain!

Alex is a very strong central defender, but he is still at a disadvantage in the one-on-one card with Ibrahimovic.

And Ibrahimovic does not need to completely defeat him in strength, he only needs a chance to receive the ball.

And now, that opportunity has come!

Leon's lob pass speed is not fast, but it is not slow either, which gives Ibrahimovic enough time to think and adjust his receiving posture.

Alex had already pushed Ibrahimovic to the right side of the penalty area, a relatively remote position.

But after Ibrahimovic used the outside of his foot to unload the ball, he still leaned on Alex very confidently, and then swung his long legs directly and shot a powerful volley on the spot!

Perhaps because the push shot that showed his superb shooting skills in the first half did not score, Ibrahimovic chose a more direct and unreasonable shooting method this time!

The football flew straight to the upper left side of the Paris Saint-Germain goal like a cannonball!

Ibrahimovic shot a long corner kick, and Sirigu predicted the direction correctly this time and made a correct and timely save.

But his bounce speed was not enough, far from enough!

Just like in the first half, when he saved Li Ang's long shot outside the penalty area, the save direction was correct, but his ability was inferior.

And Ibrahimovic's shot was just like Li Ang's shot at that time, directly crossing the goal line and hitting the net!

This is basically the final goal!

At the Parc des Princes, Ibrahimovic did not choose to celebrate.

He pursed his lips and raised his hands slightly.

But Li Ang didn't care so much. He rushed to Ibrahimovic with Hazard, hugged him and went to the corner flag area to celebrate!

Mourinho couldn't sit still anymore, rushed to the sidelines and threw three punches!

Now he was completely relieved, and waved his hand, asking several players on the bench to warm up on the sidelines.

Next to him, Blanco was slumped in the coach's seat at this moment, looking at the field and shaking his head.

They were completely beaten in this game!

He also knew that the two-round knockout game was basically like this, and it was too difficult to go to Stamford Bridge to complete a reversal in the second round.

So the only thing he wanted to see now was that his players could score a face-saving goal at the last moment of the game.

But he didn't wait for this scene to come.

Paris Saint-Germain played a bit chaotically in the last ten minutes of regular game time.

They also lacked a center forward, and in such adverse circumstances, they also lacked a powerful weapon to open the gap in Chelsea's defense.

Whether it was Higuain or Mené, they were not the kind of center forwards who were particularly good at heading.

They needed space and opportunities to advance, but at this moment, the Chelsea penalty area was almost crowded with defenders, which made their skills almost useless.

So Blanco was waiting for only one unsuccessful attack again and again.

And in the last stoppage time, Lukaku, who replaced Ibrahimovic, bullied Maxwell on the wing, and after a burst, he made a triangle pass to help Hazard score Chelsea's fourth goal of the game, which was a devastating ending!

Paris Saint-Germain was defeated!

Chelsea completely eliminated the suspense of the two-round game in one battle!

And the sharp counterattack they showed in the game once again made the other European powerhouses fearful.

Li Ang made some shocking remarks in an interview after the game.

"We won the first round, but there is still the second round. I don't think we have already entered the quarterfinals of this season's Champions League. The questions you asked are very disrespectful to Paris Saint-Germain."

Listening to Li Ang's unreliable answer, the reporters on the sidelines were stunned.

"Do you think Paris Saint-Germain still has a chance to turn the tables after losing 4 goals in the first round?"

"Why not? Never say impossible in the football world!"

"This is really a bit..."

"We attach great importance to Paris Saint-Germain, so..."

When he said this, Li Ang looked serious, as if Chelsea had lost the first round.

"We will continue to be on guard at Stamford Bridge and strike hard!"

Damn, I fell asleep on the sofa halfway through typing!
