Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 479

When Jose Mourinho, who attended the press conference later, heard Stewart say that he wanted to beat Chelsea by 2 goals.

He frowned and showed a puzzled expression.

To be honest.

Jose Mourinho didn't understand why Stewart was so confident. Manchester City didn't even beat Manchester United by 2 goals this season, and they tied with Arsenal.

What's the matter.

Do you really not treat us Chelsea as human beings?

After the interview last week, he calmed down and thought that Stewart was just pretending to be cool with the media last time.

But now it seems.

Stewart really has a kind of mysterious self-confidence. Could it be that he really has a secret weapon? !

The achievements before coming to the Premier League and the success of his first season as Chelsea coach made Mourinho confident and arrogant.

But the double defeat in the league and the Champions League last season made Mourinho more cautious.

People are like this.

After encountering failure, it is easy to start reflecting and doubting oneself.

Stewart didn't expect it.

The words he said at the pre-match press conference successfully achieved the effect of "psychological warfare", making Mourinho calm on the surface but worried in his heart and return to the locker room.

..........................................................

Both head coaches gave passionate pre-match mobilization speeches in the locker room.

Stewart brought out the big win in the Community Shield to boost the confidence of the players.

"Last season, Chelsea was indeed our biggest and most difficult competitor."

"But this season, Chelsea is no longer a threat."

"Last time, I didn't ask much of you. We didn't need to win 5:1 like last time. Just win 2 goals."

Speaking of this, Stewart himself felt a little guilty.

Fortunately, the morale of the team today is very good after a week of rest.

The players' feedback is very positive.

Knight even patted his chest to make a promise.

"Don't worry, boss, leave it to us, there will be no problem."

Hearing this,

Stuart subconsciously looked at Su Fei, and Su Fei scratched the back of his head.

Damn it.

Isn't this what Su Fei said before he came on the field in the last game.

In the end, Manchester City was defeated 0:2 by Villa.

Hearing this, Stuart was a little scared.

On the other side.

Jose Mourinho's speech was more direct and straightforward, and the Portuguese slapped the tactical board.

"Remember the last time we were defeated by Manchester City 5:1?"

"I believe no one has forgotten that shameful game!"

"Only victory can wash away the shame!"

The Blues soldiers united as one, put their palms together, and shouted in unison.

"Chelsea!"

"Must win!!"

Drogba, Terry and others looked at each other with fiery eyes. Just as the head coach said, Chelsea needed a victory to wash away the several failures against Manchester City.

.................................................................

At 5:30 pm, Stamford Bridge was packed with people. The game was about to start, and our two old friends had already arrived at the commentary desk at the stadium.

"ESPN Sports Satellite TV!"

"ESPN Sports Satellite TV!"

"Welcome to watch the 17th round of the 2006-07 Premier League, Chelsea vs. Manchester City live broadcast!"

"I am the commentator Zhan Jun!"

"Hello, I am Wang Tao!"

"Today's game is destined to be exciting, a strong dialogue between Manchester City and Chelsea!"

"The two teams ranked first and third in the Premier League this season, and both qualified as the first in the group stage of the Champions League!"

"Although Manchester City won a big victory with a score of 5:1 in the last Community Shield, the situation was one-sided."

"But I believe , under Mourinho's leadership, Chelsea will surely show us a completely different look in today's game! "

"The entrance ceremony is in progress!"

"The game is about to start!"

"First, let me introduce you to the starting lineups of both sides!"

"Playing at home, wearing blue jerseys, the Blues Chelsea!"

"Starting goalkeeper: Petr Cech!"

"Defenders: Ashley Cole on the left, Ricardo Carvalho and John Terry in the middle, Paulo Ferreira on the right!"

"Defensive midfielder: Michael Essien!"

"Left and right midfielders: Arjen Robben, Ballack"

"Attacking midfielder: Lampard!"

"Double strikers: Didier DeRozan,Ba, Shevchenko!"

"I believe that last season, fans were impressed by Chelsea's 4-3-3 double defensive midfielder and two wings."

"But this season Mourinho has been constantly adjusting the formation according to the new players. This 4-4-2 formation has also become Chelsea's mainstream starting lineup."

"On the other side."

"Playing away, wearing retro pink jerseys, Blue Moon Manchester City!"

"Starting goalkeeper: James!"

"Defenders: Zambrotta, Cannavaro, Dunn, Sun Jihai!"

"Defensive midfielder: Javi Martinez!"

"Left and right midfielders: Modric, Knight!"

"Three forwards: Cassano, Su Fei, Podolski!"

"On Manchester City's side, all players start in 4-3-3!"

"Beep!"

"With the referee's whistle, the game officially begins!"

"Manchester City has the ball! ”

...............................................................

The change of each dynasty means war and bloodshed, and the same is true between Manchester City and Chelsea.

Before the Chelsea dynasty was established, it was pulled off the throne by the rising Manchester City.

But Manchester City's rule is not stable. Although Chelsea was expelled from the city, it is still the biggest threat to Manchester City's rule.

On the court, amid the boos of more than 40,000 Blues fans at Stamford Bridge, Manchester City launched the first attack.

Su Fei kicked the ball to Modric behind him.

The two had a tacit understanding.

It was a wall-to-wall match.

Facing Drogba's steal, Modric used a curved ground pass to send the ball back to Su Fei's feet.

Lampard was waiting in the backcourt.

Immediately came to Su Fei and blocked him.

After a series of failures last season, Lampard, the "magic lamp", has become more mature.

His defensive positioning and awareness have been significantly improved.

Lampard did not choose to stick close Instead of rushing up, Su Fei left space and was ready to meet Su Fei's breakthrough at any time.

After Su Fei stopped the ball for a moment, he noticed Cassano advancing on the right, and made a long diagonal pass, sending the ball accurately.

Cassano, who had the ball, faced Arjen Robben.

Continuously performed bicycle kicks with his left and right feet.

Suddenly, he moved the ball forward, trying to squeeze past Robben along the sideline and pass the ball.

But Robben's reaction was also very fast.

Turned around quickly.

He used his body to block Cassano's burst, and then Michael Essien, who came to assist in defense, successfully hugged the ball to his feet.

The ball was exchanged!

Manchester City's first attack ended hastily.

Michael Essien, who got the ball, did not waste time and made a horizontal pass.

He gave the ball to his teammate Lampard in the middle.

Lampard did not stop the ball and made another transfer, passing it horizontally to his teammate Ballack on the right.

Ballack accelerated after dribbling the ball.

Chelsea launched a counterattack!
