Chapter 663: Follow Su Dong to win the championship
Grunwald, southern suburb of Munich.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!"
From the home theater in the villa's living room, the commentator's extremely excited long sound of the goal was heard.
The Spanish commentator will shout out this long sound when a goal is scored, which is very iconic.
On the 100-inch TV screen, Barcelona midfielder Iniesta, wearing a yellow away jersey, took off his jersey, excitedly rushed out of the stadium, running all the way to celebrate his crucial goal.
One to zero!
In the final moments of the game, Barcelona defeated Chelsea!
In the living room, after seeing Iniesta's goal, Su Dong couldn't help but applaud and cheer for his former little brother.
"This world is so beautiful!"
Teammates including Pepe, Marcelo, Modric, Mascherano, Neuer and Toni Kroos also cheered.
Indeed, Iniesta's world-class shot was really beautiful, and it was a volley, leaving Chelsea goalkeeper Cech with almost no time to react.
"It would have been difficult for me to defend this ball as it came too suddenly and my vision was blocked by the players in the penalty area." Neuer said with conviction after repeatedly watching the entire process of Iniesta's goal on TV.
In fact, as a goalkeeper, there is not much you can do about this kind of world-class goal.
A world-class shot is a bit like a penalty kick. If you save it, it's a highlight; if you don't, it's fate.
"In fact, Chelsea's offense really has problems. Hiddink did strengthen the defense in this game, but the offense was poor. With so many chances, they couldn't score a goal. It's a pity." Modric sighed, obviously surprised by Chelsea's situation.
Even though Barcelona controlled the ball tonight, Mourinho was actually quite conservative.
He did not adopt the 4-3-3 formation that Barcelona is best at, but rather a 4-4-2 formation.
Eto'o and Messi are at the front, with Iniesta, Seydou Keita, Xavi and Yaya Toure in the midfield.
It can be said that Barcelona almost gave up attacking from the flanks and relied more on Abidal and Alves on both sides. But even so, Barcelona only had one shot on target in the entire game.
Yes, it was Iniesta this time! On the other hand, Chelsea had too many chances, and Drogba wasted countless of them.
Speaking of which, this situation is a bit like the second leg of Bayern's match against Manchester United. Robben also kept wasting opportunities, but at the critical moment, Bayern had Su Donglai to make the final decision and secure the victory, while no one on Chelsea's side could stand up.
This is the role of superstars! Chelsea created too many opportunities, but they were unable to score. They lacked a strong explosive point to break the deadlock. Barcelona had the ball, but created few opportunities. Their threatening attacks were not as good as Chelsea's. However, at the critical moment, the cooperation between Messi and Iniesta killed the game.
It is at times like these that superstars show their value!
It's not that Drogba is not a superstar, but that the Ivorian has great tactical value, but as a center forward, he is not strong enough, at least in terms of scoring ability.
"Several fouls are actually debatable. Barcelona took advantage and Chelsea suffered a slight disadvantage. However, this is normal. Barcelona dominated the ball possession. The more they had the ball, the more fouls they suffered. The referee would naturally be biased towards the side that was fouled. This is also normal. There is nothing to say about Pique's handball. It was unintentional."
Just as Pepe finished speaking, Chelsea launched another attack.
At the last moment of the game, Chelsea got a corner kick opportunity, and even Cech rushed into Barcelona's penalty area. Ballack volleyed with his left foot in the penalty area. When Eto'o blocked it sideways, he raised his left hand to block his head. As a result, Ballack's shot hit Eto'o's hand.
The referee did not award a penalty, which immediately aroused anger and dissatisfaction among Chelsea players.
"Haha, this is where Eto'o is cunning." Su Dong laughed.
Everyone laughed and nodded. Who said it wasn't?
Actually, Eto'o's action seems to be fine at first glance. It's like I rushed over to block the ball and saw you were about to shoot. I subconsciously moved sideways to avoid it. It's more like protecting myself. Is there anything wrong with that? But the question is, if you want to avoid it, why do you have to raise your hands? To protect your head? But when you protect your head, your hands are raised above your head.
It depends on how the referee interprets it. You may say that Eto'o turned around and covered his head to protect himself and was accidentally hit by Ballack's shot. This is fine, but you can also say that Eto'o deliberately stretched out his hand and was hit by Ballack's shot.
The key balance lies with the referee.
"So, sometimes you can't be too upright when playing football. When Andre taught me defense, my God, I realized that there are so many secrets hidden on the court. Even Nesta and other model defenders who are known for their elegance and calmness have a lot of disgusting little tricks in secret."
Pepe was looking at Su Dong when he spoke. He always felt that Su Dong played football very honestly.
Of course, Su Dong is strong enough to be upright.
But Pepe has always believed that if Su Dong plays more cunningly and insidiously, he will cause more headaches for his opponents.
Everyone who has played football understands what Pepe said.
To be honest, football is known as a war without the smoke of gunpowder. Players are like soldiers on the battlefield. Everyone has only one goal, which is to do everything possible within the scope permitted by the rules to kill the opponent and save their own lives.
If you are already on the battlefield, and you still talk to the other side about unnecessary emotions, ethics, morality, etc., aren't you playing with your own life? Some people have higher moral standards, and there are some behaviors on the court that deserve people's respect, but including diving and other things, as long as they are within the scope allowed by the rules, there is nothing wrong with it.
To be honest, they also want to win! Just like Eto'o's handball, cunning, right?
But just now, didn't Drogba also trip in the penalty area, just got up, and suddenly screamed and fell to the ground, why? To put it bluntly, it's all for winning.
This victory involves direct and potential benefits of tens of millions of euros, which would be hundreds of millions if converted into RMB.
My God, human life is nothing compared to hundreds of millions, let alone the so-called morality?
So, when Mourinho was coaching Chelsea, he would criticize Barcelona for all kinds of things, but when he coached Barcelona, he would criticize Hiddink for playing destructive football, because all his remarks were made from his standpoint.
Double standards?
Are you kidding? As long as we can win the game, who cares about your double standards? Strength and victory are the kingly way on the football field.
…
Barcelona defeated Chelsea 1-0 away. With Iniesta's lore at a crucial moment, Barcelona once again reached the Champions League final, and they also reached the King's Cup final.
With La Liga already in hand, Barcelona is expected to win the treble this season.
"Mourinho can be said to be proud tonight. He eliminated Chelsea with his own hands and felt relieved!" Pepe said with a smile.
When in the Portuguese Super League, Su Dong, Pepe and others had competed with Mourinho and they all knew each other.
"Next, we decided to play against Barcelona, which will be difficult to play against," Toni Kroos said worriedly.
"Chelsea is more difficult to play against, Hiddink's defense is tighter. On the other hand, Barcelona seems to have more opportunities." Marcelo smiled expectantly.
This is his second Champions League final.
How many professional players cannot play a single game in their entire life, but he is only 20 years old and is already playing his second game.
I have to say, it’s great to follow Su Dong! This is also the voice of many Bayern players, because they all know that without Su Dong, it would be difficult for Bayern to reach the Champions League final. Even if it is possible, it will never be like now, reaching the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons.
"Mourinho will adopt this style of play against Chelsea. I guess he will be more cautious in the final. He is still quite conservative in his bones." Su Dong guessed.
"That's right." Modric nodded. "Let's put all the chances Drogba got in this game on Su. Guess how many goals he can score tonight?"
Everyone couldn't help but smile, and looked at Su Dong with admiration in their eyes.
Not to mention other things, Drogba failed to seize many opportunities and even failed to make a shot. But if it was Su Dong who played instead, Barcelona would probably be in big trouble tonight and would be beaten 5-0 in a matter of minutes.
Su Dong felt flattered by the looks from his teammates, but he always maintained a humble smile.
He is well aware that his teammates' admiration comes from his performance on the court and his strength.
"The upcoming schedule will be interesting. Barcelona will play in the King's Cup and we will play in the German Cup. We have basically won the league as well. If both teams win the cup, we will both be aiming for the treble." Thomas Muller was quite excited.
He is now also a substitute player for the first team. If the team wins the treble again, he will definitely be on the medal list. For a young player like him, his career is like a cheat code.
Is there anyone who can win the triple crown right after debuting?
Toni Kroos and Thomas Muller are! Of course, in comparison, they are still slightly inferior to Messi.
There is no way, it is hard not to have honor when you are standing by the towering tree of Su Dong!
Sometimes I think about it, it is really surprising. This is Su Dong's fourth Champions League final, and he won the championship in the first three times. So this time facing Barcelona, his old club, can he continue the tradition of winning the championship in the final? Su Dong suddenly remembered another interesting thing.
He still remembered that Messi once said that he had a friend who disliked Su Dong, so Messi asked Su Dong to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson, and this friend was Pique.
Thinking of this, Su Dong suddenly took out his mobile phone with a sense of mischief and sent a text message to Messi.
"Do you remember the friend you asked me to teach you a lesson?"
"Don't worry, I'll teach him a lesson for you in the Champions League final. I promise I'll beat him so hard that even his father won't be able to recognize who he is!"
After saying this, Su Dong couldn't help but burst into laughter.
He seemed to have guessed what Messi's expression would be when he received this text message after the game?
