"Hey, Natalie!"

After the four of them sat down, a middle-aged man not far away smiled and waved at Natalie.

"Hello, Andrea!" Natalie responded politely. The other party was the initiator of the Holy Spirit Knights and Yang Cheng's most loyal fan. He also knew each other and recognized her at a glance.[]

"What are these three?" Andrea looked at Avril and the other two.

"Uncle Cheng's friend, Avril Lavini, her two friends." Natalie introduced.

"Oh, the sound of freedom, a song I love so much!" Andrea said with a smile.

"Thank you!" Avril nodded, not even she knew. Is Andrea liked this song because she sang it well? Or is it because it was a song written by Yang Cheng?

"Do you often watch football games?" After sitting down, Avril pulled Natalie beside her and asked.

"It's not often. Sometimes I have to watch live TV when I'm not free." Natalie is actually quite quiet in front of outsiders and doesn't talk much, but today she has a little idea of ​​greeting her friends for Yang Cheng, so she looked around and said something extra, "Chelsea fans are crazy today. The atmosphere created is too depressing and almost suffocating!"

Avril didn't understand what this meant, but she could vaguely hear that Natalie was worried about Yang Cheng.

What is their relationship?

"It's okay, Natalie, Caesar will definitely be able to handle it!" Andrea said with a smile.

Natalie nodded, staring at the exit with her eyes, waiting for Yang Cheng and Liverpool to come out.

"Welcome to Stamford Bridge Stadium, everyone!"

"This is the 8th round of the Premier League. The leader Chelsea faces Liverpool, the third in the league. At the same time, this is also a highly anticipated key battle. It has been crowned by countless media as a battle between the old and new European kings. The former king Yang Cheng faces the challenge of the new champion coach Mourinho."

"With Jose Mourinho's joining this season, Chelsea's performance has changed dramatically compared to before. They have now created a seven-game winning streak in the league. Mourinho's Blues has not lost in the Premier League, and the limelight is strong, which has also made the outside world's assessment of the Blues this season continue to improve."

"As the defending champion last season, Liverpool's start is not bad, with 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. This result is worthy of pride at any time. However, Chelsea and Arsenal have adjusted their condition better this season, especially Chelsea, which is the best in Europe."

"From the personnel configuration, both teams are very strong. Chelsea defends and Liverpool attacks. This is also an embodiment of the coaching style of the two head coaches. Now it depends on whether Liverpool's offense is better or Chelsea's defense is stronger in this offensive confrontation."

"We have already obtained the starting lineup of both sides."

"The starting lineup of Chelsea has not changed at all. The goalkeeper is Cech, the defense is Galas, Carvalho, Terry and Ferreira, the three midfielders are Lampard, Marklele and Thiago, and the three forwards are Joe Cole, Crespo and Goodjohansen. It seems that Mourinho has no idea of ​​adjustment."

"The starting lineup of Liverpool is not too unexpected. The goalkeeper is Reina, the defense is Riser, Heipia, Carragher and Glen Johnson, the three midfielders are Essin, Carrick and Gerald, and the three forwards are still Robben, Larson and Ronaldo."

"From this lineup, the arrangements of both sides have put their strongest main lineup into play, without much change or adjustment, nor too unexpected variables. The key is to look at the head coaches of both sides in the game and the players' performance in the 90-minute game."

These two points are actually very important. It can even be said that if both sides enter the field and the odds of winning and losing account for half, then these two points are the key to determining the outcome of a game.

Of course, some teams are at a disadvantage when entering the court, but with these two points of performance, they can still win the game. This is the role of the head coach and the star.

"Okay, spectators, we can see that players from both sides walked into the stadium one after another!"

"Liverpool announced the replacement of the team's captain yesterday. According to the reliable information we received before, this time it was Sammy Hypia who took the initiative to change the captain, not the outside world speculated. Yang Cheng's actions to keep Gerald, so we can see that the one who walked in front was Gerald, who started as a captain for the first time!"

The entire Stamford Bridge Stadium was in an uproar, and it was hard to tell whether it was booing or cheering, but it was just a mess anyway.

Players from both sides walked out of the player channel, and Yang Cheng followed the player out and walked in front of his coach's seat.

He was waiting for Mourinho to come and say hello to him. After all, the Portuguese are the masters, so I'm embarrassed to come.

"He seems to be pretending not to know this rule!" Paul Bayer knew Yang Cheng's tricks best.

Yang Cheng laughed, "Then I don't mind turning against you!"

But Mourinho obviously was not going to give him such a chance. He came over soon, but Yang Cheng kept pretending to talk to Benitez, with his back facing the Portuguese.

Mourinho's face was not good-looking, because no one would like to see someone's back, but for the sake of demeanor, he still walked over, but walked a little slowly.

Yang Cheng was also judging that when he approached, he suddenly turned around.

"Ha, hello, Jose!" It looked very intimate, just like a good friend I haven't seen for many years.

*** hypocrisy!

Mourinho scolded in his heart, but on the surface he also pretended to be smiling, "Hello, Yang Cheng, we finally meet again!"

"Yes, we were busy celebrating the last time we met, and we didn't have the chance to chat with you!"

Yang Cheng's smile made Mourinho feel the urge to vomit, but the guy had to pretend to not hear his ridicule clearly. Because the last time he met, Inter Milan beat Porto up. Mourinho could never forget the humiliation that game brought him.

"Okay, after the game, come to my office to drink. If you are still in the mood at that time!" Mourinho smiled and suggested that this is a not very written rule in the Premier League. Generally, if the relationship is slightly better, they will drink together after the game, and sometimes even the coaching team will call him.

There are many examples of opponents on the court and friends on the court.

"Okay, I've always been in a good mood. I'm afraid you won't be able to come up with the wine then. I heard you don't drink much!" Yang Cheng smiled and choked him, but it seemed like he was joking.

Mourinho's office does not have red wine, but at this time, how can he be stage frightened?

"No problem, I have such a drink like this, anytime, anywhere!" I secretly said, we have won 7 games this season, and I still care about your game?

"My requirements are relatively high. If you invite others to drink, I may not be used to drinking it!" Yang Cheng replied with a smile.

"Don't worry, I guarantee that I will satisfy you!" Mourinho said with a smile.

"Let's see!" Yang Cheng raised his eyebrows.

It was only at this time that the two of them started to pretend to be sparks.

Andy Gray's live footage was pointed at the sidelines, "What the hell are they talking about?"

This should be everyone's question.

Just after seeing the two shook hands, Mourinho walked back to his position.

The competition has begun!

…………

…………

Wow~~huh~~

The stands at the entire Stamford Bridge were very interesting, shocking.

Unlike Natalie Portman's pretty expression with frowning, Avril shouted out directly.

"Does this group of Chelsea players play people or football?"

Just because she saw Lampard directly tackle Carrick who was holding the ball once, shoveled England's midfielder to the ground, and then kindly walked over to pull him up. After all, they were all former teammates of West Ham United, but who knew that Carrick directly slapped his hand and looked very unhappy.

He is too cruel!

If Carrick hadn't avoided it, this kick might have hit him directly on the ankle. Everyone knows the severity!

"Natalie, don't you need to give cards to this kind of person-hitting action?" Avril asked. Stimulation is stimulation, but it is based on the premise that she bullies people.

Nowadays, Avril treats himself as a Liverpool fan, and of course he feels that being bullied like this is a card.

"This is a tactic, scaring people!" Natalie said calmly, but she had to admit it in her heart that it was very useful.

Many players are frightened by this and perform incorrectly.

Destructive tactics are not common in the Premier League. Keane and Vieira are all loyal fans of this tactic. Many people are often frightened by this and are trembling throughout the game. How can they play well if they are still scared?

And in this way, you can also try the depth of the referee on duty and see how his law enforcement standards are.

Now it seems that the referee should be relatively neutral. He called Lampard over and warned him seriously. It seems that he should give the cards directly if he does this next time.

This foul gave Liverpool a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt. After the Reds took it, Glenn Johnson made a raid on the right and hit the right side of the Chelsea penalty area. After being intercepted, he passed the cross to Gerald who was inserted into the front, who dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

Terry had already blocked the front and stretched out his foot to intercept Gerald tripped over with the ball.

"From the slow motion, it was indeed a foul, but it was only 2 minutes into the game, and Willy did not give a penalty easily!" Andy Gray looked at the slow motion, and Terry did not touch the ball and tripped Gerald directly. It was just that from Willy's perspective, it was indeed a bit blurry, and it was not partial.

But soon, Liverpool launched another attack, with Riser directly passing Robben from the left. The Dutch broke through Ferreira on the left and made a cross. Carvalho headed the ball to clear, resolving a Liverpool attack.

"After the opening, Liverpool seemed to be more proactive in playing, while Chelsea has always adhered to its tactics since this season. All the players on the three lines launched high-intensity pressing, completely setting their own half into a high-pressure minefield, and doing everything possible to prevent Liverpool from facing their own goal directly."

Originally, there was a very fast Duff in Mourinho's counterattack weapon, but Duff was injured. He started with Joe Cole in this game and Wright Phillips sat on the bench, which would greatly affect Chelsea's counterattack.

However, Liverpool also suffered a loss. Drogba was away and lost a fulcrum in the frontcourt.

Looking at the few games Liverpool has won this season, without exception, never encountered a team that is strictly guarded like Chelsea. The only game he encountered was against Bolton, and Liverpool lost.

Now it seems that Mourinho plans to keep the defense to the end.

…………

…………

"Carrick!" Paul Bayer came to the sidelines and made a retreat towards Carrick.

When the English midfielder heard this, he immediately understood the head coach's thoughts.

After 10 minutes of the game, Liverpool took the initiative, and Chelsea simply shrank in the middle of the team to defend and let you attack.

"He seems to understand his advantages very well!" Benitez shook his head and smiled bitterly.

The powerful midfield and backcourt ensures that Chelsea has enough strength to completely turn the half-court into a high-pressure zone. Any ball entering this area will be ruthlessly destroyed. They will do everything possible to prevent you from sending the ball into the 32-meter area that can create a threat.

You should know that almost most goals appear in this area. If you can't get in, the threat will be weakened.

Chelsea's offense this season is very poor. Baros originally fits Mourinho's defensive counterattack, but for some reason, the Portuguese has never reused him. Crespo himself is an offensive center, which is the kind of broken and dense. It is useful to meet a team with good defense, but it is counterattacking...
To be continued...
