Chapter 51

Chapter 51

"Good evening, dear audience friends, this is the seventh round of the Premier League. The game you are watching is Manchester United vs. Chelsea at home. I am Bale, the commentator of this game."

"I'm Bartlett, the narrator."

"I have got the starting lineups of both teams. Coach Ferguson arranged a 442 formation for this game, with goalkeeper Van der Sar as the starting goalkeeper, Rooney and Tevez as the starting forwards, Scholes, Giggs, Carrick and Ronaldo as the midfielders, and Brown, Vidic, Evra and Ferdinand as the starting defenders."

"Due to Rooney's absence at the beginning of the season, Manchester United has three wins, two draws and one loss, with 11 points, and is currently ranked fifth in the standings. Chelsea has four wins and two draws, with 14 points, and is currently ranked second."

But this ranking is actually not accurate enough, because Manchester City, which is ranked third, has completed seven games, so Manchester United's more accurate ranking should be fourth - but it seems that there is no difference, judging from the results on paper, Manchester United is not as good as Chelsea.

But in fact, or the general public, the betting companies all believe that Manchester United has a greater chance of winning. If the players were not unable to participate in the betting, otherwise, if they bought the odds of Chelsea winning this game, Endrit would have spent a lot of money to bet on them to draw.

"Mourinho used a 451 formation for Chelsea, with Sheva starting as the forward, Mikel, Malouda, Joe Cole, Makelele and Essien in the midfield, and Ashley, Paul, John and Ben Haim as the defenders."

"And the starting goalkeeper for this game is Cech. Yes, our Iron-faced Superman didn't start this game, but in the previous six games, our England goalkeeper's performance was no worse than Cech. As Mourinho's most valued disciple at the moment, he seems to have no reason not to let Ritter start in this game."

"Mourinho rarely uses a 451 formation, and he still lets Sheva start. I have to suspect that Mourinho's lineup in this game was affected by off-field factors."

"oh?"

"You know, Chelsea's chairman Abramovich came to the game in person."

Commentators Bale and Bartlet stopped there, leaving the rest to the media. They could even imagine how the media would interpret the game after the match, and were ready to criticize the Russians for their short-sightedness if Cech started the game but failed to keep a clean sheet like Endrit did.

Yes, although Endrit is of mixed blood, his current technical ability plus the household registration book he received at birth give Endrit a very thick shield in the Premier League.

As long as Endrit performs well, the media will praise him without thinking, and will even help Endrit to criticize those players who they think have hindered Endrit's development - no matter how much honor this player has brought to England, they only recognize their own people.

"The game is about to start. Let's guess who will score the first goal?"

…

The referee stepped back from midfield and Manchester United kicked off.

Chelsea has won the Premier League title many times in the past few years. This year, seeing the massive loss of Chelsea players and frequent injuries, every team that faces Chelsea wants to dampen the limelight of this former Premier League champion.

Although Chelsea has a goalkeeper this year who claims to be able to keep opponents completely scoreless - how is this possible? It must be that the previous team was careless (too bad), if it were them, they would never have allowed a shutout.

Before the start of this game, after knowing that Ronaldinho had a good relationship with a certain goalkeeper who kept shutouts, Rooney planned to teach Endrit a lesson to let him know that there are always people better than you - it was definitely not because Endrit had been too popular recently and had snatched the traffic from him, the golden boy, absolutely not!

But Rooney, who was so excited to welcome Chelsea, soon became less excited because the goalkeeper Endrit, whom he had been looking forward to for almost a week, did not play in this game and was instead a substitute!

"He must be afraid of me, afraid that I will break his clean sheet record." Rooney turned to Tevez and said, "But that's useless. I will definitely be the first person to kick the ball into the Chelsea goal this season."

Tevez nodded perfunctorily. Ronaldinho, who was walking behind the two of them, curled his lips and thought, you are dreaming. Do you really think that Ritter's title of Iron-faced Superman is for nothing? When he first met Endrit, Ronaldinho could still shoot the ball into the goal defended by Endrit.

But the last time the two of them practiced together during the holiday, he had difficulty kicking the ball into the goal, and the last few goals that were scored were obviously due to Endritt letting the ball go. You asked him why he knew that, of course it was because those last few balls didn’t hit Endrit’s face but went straight into the goal!

"When Endrit comes on the field, I will definitely score a goal in front of him."

Ronaldinho still didn't say anything, but once the game started he was extremely active, reaching out for the ball many times, preparing to break through Cech's goal as quickly as possible, and then let Mourinho replace Endrit.

"Ronaldo is reaching for the ball, is there a chance?"

The ball flew out from the feet of Manchester United backcourt player Vidic. Giggs received the ball and broke through. After meeting Chelsea midfielder Malouda, he quickly turned his back and held Malouda with his back. Then he turned sideways and skillfully nudged Malouda with his elbow. Malouda was unmoved. Giggs quickly retreated and Malouda immediately caught up.

Ronaldinho reached out for the ball again, Giggs used his body to block Malouda who was pressing him, and after slightly adjusting the direction, he kicked the ball in front of Ronaldinho.

The football rolled towards the baseline, and Ronaldinho and Chelsea's Mikel chased it at the same time.

On the field, Ronaldinho's fans screamed. Amid the shouts, Ronaldinho quickened his pace to catch up with the football and rushed straight into the penalty area from the left. Malouda stepped forward to block him. Ronaldinho's body swayed towards the middle and lightly tapped the football with his heel. The football flew diagonally from behind him and in front of Malouda to outside the small penalty area.

Carrick, who was closest to the football in a straight line, quickly moved forward and caught the football.

"Carrick received the ball! Is he going to shoot directly? Chelsea's defenders have returned to their defensive positions, and he still has a chance... to shoot! It's a close angle... No! It's a pass! Ronaldinho! Ronaldinho received the ball outside the small penalty area and volleyed it!"

"The ball goes in! GOALLLL!!!"

It turned out that after Ronaldinho passed the ball diagonally to the front and Carrick received the ball, he did not stop there, but rushed to the small penalty area on the left to prepare for a follow-up shot: if Carrick missed the shot, he would complete the follow-up shot, but he never expected that Carrick would actually fake a shot and pass the ball!

"Good brother, that's very nice!"

Ronaldinho happily hugged Carrick, then strode to the sidelines where he was closest to Endrit, waved his hands vigorously to attract his attention, then made a waving gesture to Endrit, then raised his finger and pointed at the goal, with a determined smile on his face.

In the live broadcast room, the two commentators who were originally preparing to replay the goal and find an angle to praise or criticize their partners were stunned by the scene in front of them. "Is this a provocation?"

All right

Endrit had a hunch that Ronaldinho simply wanted to play on the same field with him, but the others - specifically Cech - seemed to have misunderstood something. He was extremely focused in the rest of the first half, jumping high and falling down from time to time, and blocking several very threatening shots.

"beep……"

At the end of the first half, in the locker room, Cech was breathing heavily to calm his pounding heart, his eyes fixed on Endrit. After his breathing had calmed down a little, he asked, "You play in the second half?"

Endrit nodded, silently unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to Cech.

"Then you should pay attention in the second half. Ronaldinho on the opposite side was in very good form in this game. He shot as soon as he got the chance. I don't know when he got so much energy."

It's not like Cech had played on the same field with Cristiano Ronaldo before, but he had never been as tired as he was today. He even suspected that this guy had secretly taken stimulants and had endless energy.

Endrit smiled and nodded, but for some reason, he felt a little guilty. But he changed his mind and thought that this had nothing to do with him, so he straightened his chest and nodded vigorously, "I will!"

Ten minutes passed in a flash, and Endrit put on his jersey and followed his teammates into the player tunnel. Ronaldinho saw Endrit preparing to play at a glance, so he quietly changed positions with his teammates and walked side by side with Endrit.

"Well, am I nice enough? Do you think your coach will let you play if I do this?"

Endrit: ? ? ? ?

"No, don't talk nonsense." Endrit quickly reached out and covered Ronaldinho's mouth. "I was scheduled to play in the second half a long time ago. It has nothing to do with what you said!"

“Wuwuwu…”

Ronaldinho blinked desperately, and Endrit snorted, "I promise to shut you out and not let you score a single goal!"

Ronaldinho pushed Endrit's arm away and raised his chin high, "I have learned a new shooting technique recently!"

"Really? So you wanted to score twice today? But to be honest, that's a bit difficult, after all, you were facing me in the second half."

The two had already walked out of the player tunnel while they were talking, so they stopped talking and went on the court waiting for the referee to blow the whistle to start the second half.

Everything was fine, except that Endritt always felt that the opposing players and his teammates looked at him strangely.

"You and that crybaby are really friends? I thought the media made it up to guarantee sales." Ashley couldn't help but turned around and said this quickly before the game officially started.

Endrit: ? ? ? ?

"What did you say? What crybaby? ..."

Did the audio recording he made that day get leaked? No, he didn’t record anything when Xiao Xiao Luo was crying that day!

“Beep, beep, beep…”

Endrit shook his head and threw aside the unfinished words, looking forward with a firm gaze: The second half of the game has begun!
