Football: The king of midfield, Guardiola is crying with envy

Chapter 248

Just when Saul was about to come up, Chen Chen made his choice.

Chen Chen did not slow down his dribbling speed, but instead had a vague feeling of speeding up.

He was getting closer and closer to Sarr.

This made Sarr very nervous.

Because in his mind, Chen Chen should be in a hurry to give the ball out, instead of continuing to dribble forward.

It was at this time, when Sarr was thinking about it but his body was ready for defense, Chen Chen suddenly pushed the ball to the right.

Sarr hurriedly kicked his legs to follow.

And at this moment, Chen Chen stopped running to the right, pulled the ball back with his right foot, poked the toe, and the ball passed through Sarr's crotch!

Then he passed through the defensive player, that is, Sarr, again!

This was a very humiliating crotch pass!

Seeing this, Rudiger secretly said in his heart that it was not good.

The German defender hurriedly ran over to make up for the defense.

At the same time, Kepa was ready to save the ball as if he was facing a great enemy.

Chen Chen did not hesitate and directly pushed the ball with the outside of his left foot.

Facing the empty goal, Mahrez received the ball and pushed it into the net with a very simple push!

There was no suspense.

There was no goal line rescue!

"Another goal!"

"Manchester City changed the score to 3-1!"

"The goal came from Mahrez! The assist came from Chen Chen!"

"Chen Chen's one-on-one assist this time can be selected as the best assist moment in the League Cup."

"It is worth mentioning that Chen Chen could even make a shot himself at the last moment. But in order to win the game and to increase the success rate of goals, Chen Chen chose to pass horizontally."

"This is selfless dedication!"

"Tuchel knew that Chen Chen was the biggest threat in Manchester City, so he also did a lot of defensive targeting."

"But is this useful? No! Jorginho's defensive failure proves that England's victory is not a matter of luck! The England national team with Chen Chen can compete with any strong team and is not inferior!"

Guardiola and the coaching staff on the sidelines cheered again.

The Blue Moon fans near the corner flag area also cheered together!

This time, Manchester City kicked from the south stand to the north, and the away team's fans area was just below the north stand. Therefore, the polo king who helped the team score a goal directly hooked Chen Chen's shoulder and ran over together.

The Manchester City players on the field cheered and celebrated with the fans!

Some were happy and some were worried.

Tuchel was very helpless and angry.

The Chelsea players on the field were regretful and silent.

Looking at the Manchester City players celebrating in the corner flag area, Kepa sighed and then silently fished the ball out of the net.

After Edouard Mendy joined Chelsea, Kepa was no longer a goalkeeper for Chelsea.

Why did Kepa start this time?

That's because Mendy returned to the Senegal national team to participate in the African Cup, so he got a rare opportunity.

Originally, Kepa had planned to use an excellent performance against Manchester City to gain the trust of coach Tuchel and regain the starting position!

But now, things are unpredictable!

Although Kepa has little responsibility for these goals, it is more due to the mistakes of the defensive players in front.

But will Tuchel take individual actions?

Obviously not.

Therefore, it is foreseeable that when Edouard Mendy comes back, Kepa's dream of starting will definitely be gone.

The celebration of the Blue Moon this time was a bit long.

After Craig ran over to warn, the Manchester City players slowly turned around and walked towards the center circle.

Tuchel began to ask the players to rush forward anxiously!

Chelsea stepped up the attack!

Soon the time came to the 67th minute.

Marcos Alonso participated in the attack in advance and passed the ball to Werner.

Mahrez returned to defense very deep, and he came directly to Werner this time.

The German striker did not entangle with Mahrez too much, and Werner quickly gave a through ball and sent the ball to Lukaku in front!

Rodri and Ruben Dias stepped forward together!

It was called a double team, but in fact, the two of them just ran close to him, stretched their legs slightly to try to steal the ball, and forced him to make a mistake.

Seeing that he couldn't steal the ball, and Lukaku was about to enter the penalty area, Ruben simply tried to steal it.

In this situation, the big guy Lukaku fell down directly!

Although it was a lot of acting, he was indeed tripped.

So, Ruben Dias, who was blocking Lukaku, received a yellow card.

Fei Niao hurried over to remind Ruben,

"Don't give them a chance, kick the ball out as soon as possible."

Ruben nodded heavily.

It was indeed his negligence just now. He should have acted decisively after the double team was completed. At that time, he would have been called for a defensive foul at most and given the opponent a set-piece that was a little further away.

Now it’s troublesome. He gave the opponent a set-piece outside the penalty area line...

Chen Chen, who just returned to defense, heard what Fei Niao said. He nodded and agreed with the old captain.

Seeing that Ruben was a little self-blaming, Chen Chen immediately added,

"It’s okay. It’s not a bad thing to give them a set-piece. Maybe we can counterattack."

Ruben Dias nodded with his hands on his hips.

I hope so.

Ziyech and Werner stood in front of the ball.

If Mount didn’t leave the court, he would have been added.

Manchester City put Mahrez in front, and everyone else came back to defend.

"Beep!"

As soon as the referee blew the whistle, Werner took the lead!

But his foot didn’t kick the football, but slid over the top of the ball.

Ziyech behind him was the real penalty shooter!

"Bang!"

Ziyech's shot was of very good quality and the speed was very fast.

Ederson in front of the goal quickly jumped up to save the ball!

But he missed it.

Because Ziyech's shot was at an ideal height, just flying over his fingertips!

And just when Ederson missed the ball and Manchester City's goal was actually in an unguarded state, the ball hit the crossbar and bounced back!

"Ziyech, come and try."

"Oops! Hit the crossbar!"

"The goal of Stamford Bridge is not on Chelsea's side today!"

"Let's continue to watch, Manchester City has a chance to counterattack."

"De Bruyne! De Bruyne is dribbling the ball on the right."

"Mahrez and Sterling are running forward like crazy! Oh, and Chen Chen, Chen Chen is also running!"

"To whom? To Chen Chen!"

"No more passing, Chen Chen directly kicked it!"

"Long shot! Chen Chen kicked it!"

"Long shot! Kepa didn't save this sudden shot!"

"4-1!"

"In the 68th minute of the game, Manchester City 4-1 Chelsea!"

In the studio, Zhan Jun was very amazed by this.

Obviously, the two teams played back and forth in the first thirty minutes of the first half, why did Manchester City change their formation after changing it?

Chelsea collapsed directly!

No, the anger was gone when they equalized?

Zhang Lu at the side conducted a "self-examination" at the right time,

"Manchester City's tactical interpretation and player level are beyond my judgment. Guardiola's team has a kind of magic that turns decay into magic, and Chen Chen has the strength to support the building without falling!"

"Hehe," Zhang Lu coughed twice to cover up the embarrassment,

"Chen Chen proved Manchester City's offensive strength with a perfect performance. As long as he is there, nothing is impossible!"
