Chapter 1315 Weakness (V)

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Both sides had new ideas, so they both seemed very confident.In the second half, it was Manchester City who took the initiative to attack. They already had a psychological preparation to die and survive, so they started to attack as soon as they came up.

No. In the 406th minute, Silva and Yaya Toure made a cross from the left after colliding with Yaya Toure. Aguero hit the goal with a barb in the middle of the penalty area. Although it looked good, the actual effect was mediocre.However, Manchester City made a comeback after 1 minute, but this time Silva counterattacked with too much direct pass and Cech got it.

No. In the 409th minute, Chelsea launched a counterattack. Ai Huan and Mata crossed positions. The two passed the ball to each other and quickly passed the midfield. Just when Manchester City was in chaos, Ai Huan suddenly made a pass, and the football rushed into the penalty area like lightning. , Lukaku directly pushed up, but he didn't shoot at the first time but wanted to adjust the angle. It was this short space that gave the opponent a chance. Nastasic tackled Lukaku from behind in the penalty area. Kaku, the referee did not hesitate to impose the death penalty and directly showed a red card to send off Nastasic. This time Manchester City really appeared in the situation that Mourinho had predicted before.

Mourinho continued to celebrate with punches on the sidelines. Now that Chelsea has the advantage, the next step should be a smooth road.Lampard, who had already missed a penalty in the first half, still stood on the penalty spot. He still hoped to save his face with a penalty. This time, he shot directly to the lower left corner, but he did not expect Joe Hart actually judged the right direction again this time. His save was very exciting, and he threw the football directly into his arms. Lampard looked incredible, and the Manchester City generals ran over to fight Harry. Te hugged and celebrated, this is the second penalty missed in the game, it seems that luck has returned to the direction of Manchester City.

Although Manchester City has lost one player, they seem to have found an opportunity again. Instead, they played more fiercely than before. In the second minute, Yaya Toure scored the ball and Rodwell fell to the left side of the penalty area. Terry blocks.At this time, Mancini finally made the decision to kill the net. He made the first substitution of the game, but what is interesting is that he replaced Rodwell, who performed well in the game, with Carlos Tevez. Appearing on the field, this substitution also verified Mourinho's second thought, that the opponent is going desperate.

He immediately made a pressing gesture on the sidelines, and Chelsea, who had been waiting for this moment for a long time, finally started their own full-scale counterattack like a sophisticated offensive machine Since you want to go all out, then come on , Let's see who can crush who first.

De Bruyne passed the ball from the left rib, and Mata's left-footed arc ball from the top of the penalty area slightly missed the left post.Less than 1 minute later, De Bruyne successfully intercepted the ball in the midfield. He immediately turned around and passed the ball. Lukaku broke into the left side of the penalty area but did not pass it to Ai Huan on the other side. Instead, he hit it with his left foot. The door was blocked by Joe Hart, and before the football flew out, he rushed up and pressed the football firmly under him.

In 5 minutes, the football came to Ai Huan's feet. Ai Huan suddenly accelerated to get rid of the opposing player who wanted to foul and made another pass.Then De Bruyne's shot from outside the penalty area was blocked and changed, and the opponent made a counterattack from the goal line. Tevez broke into the penalty area and shot from the left side and was blocked by Petr Cech.

Manchester City and Chelsea were a little out of breath, but seeing Omancini kept yelling to attack on the sidelines, he felt a little bit more in his heart, and all of them made the decision to give up defense at once, so their offense was just as good. There was a sense of determination.

In 8 minutes, Silva made a long pass from the midfielder. Aguero headed a little in the penalty area. After 1 minute, Milner made a straight pass in the midfield, Aguero started to get rid of the defense at high speed, and the shot from the right side of the penalty area was slightly higher than the crossbar.

No. In 601 minutes, Tevez singled out Mikel from the left and was blocked. Chelsea counterattacked on the spot. Wanting to make a slight adjustment, this time it was Kolo Touré who immediately came to defend, and the two collided and both fell in the penalty area, but this time the referee ignored it.

And Manchester City also launched a counterattack. Silva passed back from the left side of the penalty area. Yaya Toure cut along the penalty area line at high speed and then pushed the lower right corner of the goal. Petr Cech could only look at the ball and sigh. Under the circumstances, the score was evened.

Yaya Toure ran directly to the die-hard fan area, the fans were all crazy, they poured all their enthusiasm here, the fans howled and roared, at this moment they equalized the score enough to make them feel boundless happiness It is a miracle that the score can be evened under such circumstances.

Mancini also ran wildly on the sidelines until he slid out of a fan stand closest to him. This move immediately attracted the cheers of those fans. At this moment, the whole Manchester City was boiling.

Mourinho just frowned slightly at this. He didn't expect Manchester City to score a goal at this time. It seems that he also underestimated the opponent. It's not the same, not to mention that they have already won the championship once, such a team is no longer a loose sand.

"Oscar, you go on the field." He suddenly turned his head and called out to the players behind him, "It's still like what I said in the midfield, try to control the ball as much as possible, and give it to Ai Huan to handle the game when there is a chance." He paused before saying, "Let Ai Huan find a position at will, you kick the front midfielder, and Matara goes sideways."

"Who do I replace?"

"Lukaku!" Mourinho said without hesitation.

"Huh? So who will play the striker?"

"Can't score without a striker? Just follow what I said." Mourinho said firmly.

This substitution was indeed unexpected. Lukaku's performance in this game was mediocre. It was his mistakes that caused Chelsea to be passive for a while. Now it is normal to be replaced. There is no preparation for a substitute striker, so now it can only be like this.

But after Lukaku left the field, Chelsea seemed to play more smoothly. No. 605 minutes, De Bruyne made a pass from the left. Oscar, who had just played, scored a header from eight meters in front of the goal, but he did not use his strength. Joe Hart lifted the crossbar.
