Chapter 598 Rhythm Change
Manchester City attacked, Li Feng sent a good pass again, Aguero put on a wonderful performance, he first got rid of the entanglement of Ashley Cole and rushed into the penalty area.

Then he swayed in the penalty area to cover Ivanovic, but it is a pity that Aguero's shot ended up hitting the side net. People who didn't even see it clearly went to pay back a Manchester City goal.

However, this situation only lasted for a few seconds, because Aguero was lying on the lawn in the penalty area with a face of annoyance at the moment. Obviously, Aguero's reaction was the most intuitive expression of this shot.

Manchester City's attack scared Chelsea into a cold sweat. Villas-Boas even rushed to the sidelines and roared at Romeu. Romeu didn't even step forward to block Li Feng's pass just now.

For Romeu, Boas trusts very much, but Romeu's performance is a bit disappointing to Boas' trust. As of now, in fact, the worst performance of Chelsea's three midfielders is Romeu.

Boas’s decision is understandable. Boas wants to cultivate a loyal confidant, which is true for everyone. In Manchester City, Li Feng is Van Basten’s confidant, and Aguero is also considered. It is also understandable why the relationship between Aguero and Li Feng is so good.

But Boas is obviously a little too anxious. Chelsea is not Manchester City.

The current situation of Boas is completely different from that of Mourinho. You know, Boas is not even standing firm now, and he can't pick anyone. You know, Lampard, one of the big shots, is still sitting off the court.

Of course~~~ The most important thing is that the Russian oligarch, the owner of Chelsea, is not a patient boss, otherwise Chelsea would not have changed so many head coaches in the past few years.

Then, the first controversial penalty of the game appeared. Li Feng, Silva, Aguero and Balotelli played a frontcourt quartet, and the four passed consecutively to cooperate with the torn Chelsea defense.

Chelsea entered the Chelsea penalty area, Balotelli kicked a diagonal pass, but Ramirez's quick return finally tripped Silva with his leg, but the referee did not award a penalty.

Manchester City is naturally dissatisfied with this penalty, but it is hard to say whether a penalty will be awarded or not from the perspective of slow motion. It is estimated that only the two parties Silva and Ramirez know about this kind of thing.

What's more, at this moment, Manchester City has no time to complain. The ball was pushed out of the penalty area by Terry's big foot. Mata received Terry's pass, but before he could take any action, De Jong immediately shot out from the diagonal.

In this case, Mata could only pass the ball forward, Sturridge took the ball, and then waded past Boas with his big feet, trying to rush into the Manchester City penalty area, but was cut off by Richards who shot diagonally.

Both were Manchester City youth trainees, the two had fought for the same dream, but on the road to growth, they chose two different paths, Richards chose to stay at Manchester City, while Sturridge came to London.

Looking at Richards' back, at this moment Sturridge couldn't help thinking that if he hadn't left Manchester City at that time, then he might not be worse than Richards now.

You know, Richards' performance this season has been unanimously praised by England, and his rise has cheered the whole of England.

Of course, Richards didn't know what was going on in Sturridge's mind at this moment. After the break, Richards directly launched an impact on Chelsea's half.

If it wasn't for Meireles' decisive foul, Richards is likely to directly stage the drama of going straight to Huanglong. Most of Chelsea's defense is almost entirely on Manchester City's offensive players.

The free kick was naturally taken by Li Feng, but Li Feng's free kick was a bit substandard. Even after he finished kicking, he couldn't help but look embarrassed, and the ball went directly away from the goal and flew out of the baseline.

Seeing that Manchester City's offensive became stronger and stronger, and even wanted to take over the rhythm of the game, Boas stood up again, and then called Mata and Meireles to his side.

Then the game resumed, and Manchester City immediately felt the difference in Chelsea. Under the control of Mata and Meireles, Chelsea actually slowed down the offensive.

I have to say that Boas's adjustment is quite good. You must know that Manchester City is already playing crazy at the moment, and in terms of offense, Manchester City has never been afraid. Just look at their goals this season.

Obviously, Boas collected information on Manchester City, but this is also normal. Boas was originally from this background. When he was Mourinho's assistant, Boas was responsible for collecting opponent information and tactical analysis. Although Mourinho's sentence "Without Villas, I can do nothing" is a bit exaggerated, but this sentence is not the best proof of Boas' ability.

In the next period of time, the two teams wrestled again, but it was not about offense, but about the rhythm of the two teams. Manchester City wanted to pull up the rhythm, while Chelsea tried to slow down the rhythm.

"Well, although the rhythm has changed too fast, I believe that the excitement of the next game will definitely not change." The commentator said with a depressed face. It was enjoyable to watch the fast-paced offense and defense of the two teams just now, but after a shot, the rhythm of the game has completely changed.

The fact is that, although the rhythm of the game has slowed down, the shots of the two teams have not decreased too much, or Chelsea's offensive success rate has been greatly improved.

No. In 205 minutes, Mata was once again blocked from attacking with the ball, but he still passed the ball. Sturridge was intercepted by Richards and made a diagonal pass. Drogba shot directly from the left penalty area and missed it.

Three minutes later, Chelsea made a comeback, and it was Mata's pass, but this time he found Drogba directly, who took a few steps from the crossbar outside the penalty area and then kicked hard.

The ball was not within the goal frame, but it is worth mentioning that Drogba sat directly on the lawn after finishing the shot. It turned out that Drogba used too much force when he shot just now, which may have caused the recurrence of the old injury.

As a player, it is normal to be injured on the court. In this regard, Li Feng is still very lucky. The system gave Li Feng the best body, and with the help of two talents, Li Feng avoided black feet. This is the reason why Li Feng was not injured on the court.

Then Chelsea's team doctor came in under the referee's instructions, and Villas-Boas asked Torres to warm up. However, after the team doctor's inspection, Chelsea was relieved because Drogba had already walked back to the pitch, which meant that Chelsea did not need to make substitutions.
