Chapter 315: A dribble that amazed the whole audience!
"Eight minutes into the second half, the score was 2:1 and Porto was temporarily leading. No one had expected this score before the game, and their performance was worthy of this score. It seems that Chelsea needs to work harder to win the game."
At this time, Mr. Small, the commentator of BBC TV, changed the subject and said, "...Oh my God, the fourth official signaled for a substitution. No. 21 young player Alan Wong came on and Damien Duff was replaced. There is no doubt that Mr. Mourinho let Alan play to score goals. The goal efficiency of this young player is too terrifying. However, in the remaining time, can he still equalize the score for Chelsea or even overtake? I hope so."
"... So, Mr. Lineker, what do you think of young player Alan Wang's performance this season?"
At this time, the special guest, legendary striker Mr. Lineker, also picked up the microphone and began to talk: "His performance was perfect. Even when I was at my peak, my goal efficiency was not higher than his. However, the most important thing is that he can continue this performance and this goal efficiency. I hope he can do this. In this way, the England team will have a better chance to compete for the trophy. That is the biggest regret of my life, and I can only count on these little guys."
"So Mr. Lineker, do you think Alan Wang can score goals in the remaining game time? How many goals can he score?"
Lineker thought for a moment and said, "Based on his past performance, it will be no problem for him to score a goal. Chelsea may very well equalize the score in this game, but it will be very difficult to overtake."
“…Let’s wait and see.”
Wang Li stood on the sidelines with an excited look on his face. He had been sitting on the bench for more than an hour. How could this not make him depressed? He was eager to go to the court to stretch.
After a while, Damien Duff walked out of the field, and the two clapped their hands to each other. At the wave of the linesman, Wang Li ran into the field.
At this time, the Porto players were still celebrating the goal, but when Wang Li ran into the stadium, almost everyone's eyes were on him. A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Wang Li's performance this season is really shocking. Whenever he meets Chelsea, every opponent has to study him. But even so, he still maintains an extremely high efficiency of 2 goals per game. How can this not make the Porto players tremble?
This time, more than a thousand Chelsea fans in a corner of the stadium suddenly cheered and sang the song "Blue is the colour" together to cheer for the team.
Due to the influence of Wang Li's appearance, many Porto fans fell silent. This sudden singing even drowned out the sound of Porto celebrating the goal for a while. After the other team reacted, they immediately made a collective "boo" sound to fight back. But were these "boos" directed at Wang Li, "boo" the Chelsea fans, or to express their cowardice?
In fact, even though Porto was defeated at Stamford Bridge and Wang Li's performance was horrific, Chelsea did not win any honors, and Wang Li had no honors to show for himself. Even if he performed well, it would not affect the thoughts of most Porto fans. But this is Portugal, which had just hosted the 2004 European Cup.
The European Cup undoubtedly made Rooney and Wang Li famous, but Wang Li's influence is even deeper. Many Porto fans have seen the classic England-Portugal battle in which Wang Li came on as a substitute and forced the Portuguese team to retreat and defend. Although England lost the game, the name 'Alan Wang' is firmly remembered in the hearts of these Portuguese fans.
Seeing the black-haired boy on the field again, they thought of the footwork that was more gorgeous than Portugal's, the goal efficiency that frightened the opponents, and the powerful and domineering long-range shots.
Alan Wang represents so much, and these are things that are deeply remembered by these Portuguese fans.
However, Wang Like didn't care what these fans thought. He knew very well that Mr. Mourinho asked him to play in the game to score goals. The purpose was very clear. Now, Porto was the opponent, and all he needed to consider was how to help Chelsea score goals.
………
“Beep…”
With a light whistle from the referee, the game resumed. Drogba kicked the ball to Wang Li and ran forward. Wang Li kicked the ball with his left foot and the ball rolled backwards. He also slowly ran into Porto's half.
After Wang Li came on the pitch, without the head coach's command, the three fronts automatically moved forward a little. Scott Parker's position moved forward to play as a left midfielder. He was responsible for assisting the team in scoring goals on the left side, passing the ball, and occasionally moving forward to stand parallel to Drogba to look for scoring opportunities. He should be said to be a shadow striker.
In this way, Chelsea's formation automatically became 4-3-1-2, and Wang Li was the '1' connecting the midfield and the frontcourt.
In fact, in the real game, the division is not so obvious, because Scott Parker and Wang Li have similar jobs on the court. Although their sense of position is not very obvious, they are still one on the left and one on the right. This formation can also be said to be 4-3-2-1. In the midfield, Thiago Mendes is more focused on defense, and Bridge is of course the same. In this way, Wang Li, Scott Parker and Lampard actually constitute Chelsea's three-line attack.
On the football field, players' individual skills vary, and the formation can only be kept roughly and changed according to the actual situation. This is also the difficulty for Mr. Mourinho to "shape the entire team into a non-stop machine."
Back on the field, after the game resumed, Chelsea's first attack did not achieve any effect. On the wing, Thiago Mendes was dribbling the ball but was directly intercepted by the opponent's full-back Areias. After that, Porto launched a quick counterattack, and the Brazilian teenager Fabiano completed a long shot, which was caught by goalkeeper Thomas.
Thomas threw the ball to start the attack, and after the ball fell several times under the feet of Chelsea players, it reached Frank Lampard's feet. Lampard dribbled the ball across the center line, and when the opponent's young player Diego came up to grab the ball, he passed the ball to the direction of Wang Li on the right. This was a semi-high ball, and the speed of the ball was a bit fast, which would make the person receiving the ball quite uncomfortable. After passing the ball, Lampard waved in the direction of Wang Li, smiled embarrassedly, and indicated that it was a mistake.
At this time, Costinha, who was not far from Wang Li, immediately rushed up fiercely. The Portuguese was very fast and moved like a cheetah. It seemed that he was planning to steal the ball when Wang Li was not yet stable after receiving it.
In the audience seats of the Dragon Stadium, more than 30,000 fans were staring at this scene, and the cameras of all the media were aimed at the black-haired boy on the field, filming Wang Li's first touch of the ball in the whole game.
Facing the football flying from behind, Wang Li frowned, took two steps forward, raised his right leg from behind and turned his head at the same time, and saw out of the corner of his eye that the football hit his heel and bounced directly into the air.
Seeing this scene, almost everyone in the stadium thought that Wang Li had made a mistake, and even many Porto fans couldn't help but laugh out loud. For them, there was nothing more satisfying than seeing Chelsea's ace make a mistake in receiving the ball.
But the next moment, the football "luckily" passed over the head of Costinha who came to grab the ball. At the same time, Wang Li followed the movement of his body, took a strange step, and directly dodged Costinha, while stretching out his right foot, ready to stop the ball.
But at this time, the danger was not over. Porto players obviously attached great importance to Wang Li who had just come on the court. Sitaridis had followed up. When Wang Li passed the former, Sitaridis was about one meter away from him. Just when Wang Li was about to stop the ball with his right foot, he suddenly rushed over to steal the ball. Undoubtedly, this was a very good steal opportunity, and ordinary players would not be able to react at all.
But of course the football hit Wang Li's right foot. He caught a glimpse of the Greek player who was trying to steal the ball and reacted. At that moment, he suddenly used his internal force to make the ball hit his right foot directly. In this way, the football hit Wang Li's right foot and bounced forward directly. Sitaridis naturally missed the opportunity to steal the ball. At the same time, Wang Li chased after the ball with light steps.
Man-ball split
Passed two people
Stunning audience
At the same time, the Dragon Stadium was filled with boos.
The big screen at the scene also timely followed the blue figure with '21' printed on his back. The dazzling red light under the setting sun made his temperament suddenly become taller.
"Beautiful and wonderful pass"
Seeing Wang Li's dribbling past the defense, BBC special guest Lineker couldn't help but talk about it: "Alan's skills are so brilliant. Perhaps you can only think that his movements are very smooth and very entertaining, but looking back on the whole process, you can find that in fact, Allen only touched the ball twice. It takes only two touches to complete two passes. This is quite difficult. Even on the training ground, few players can complete such a coherent movement, not to mention in a tense game..."
"You know, in a contest with an opponent, reaction ability plays a big role. Just now..."
Seeing this gorgeous pass, Mr. Lineker started to talk nonstop with an 'I'm a professional' look on his face, forcing the commentator Mr. Small to listen carefully and nod continuously, but in his heart he wondered 'was it a mistake to invite him?'
However, Lineker's words did not last long, because while he was talking, Chelsea's attack had already threatened Porto's goal.
After Wang Li passed two opposing defenders in succession, he continued to dribble the ball from the right, but the Porto players all unconsciously moved to the right to defend, which made the defensive players gather more densely. Frowning, Wang Li had no choice but to kick the ball to Scott Parker who was in the middle, and then he passed the defensive player and kept moving to find a suitable position to receive the ball.
Scott Parker obviously cherished this hard-earned chance to start. After getting the ball, he steadily made a one-two cooperation with Bridge on the wing, then when he found an opportunity, he passed the ball directly to Wang Li. Parker knew very well that only by giving the ball to the black-haired boy of the team could the goal efficiency be higher.
Perhaps because he was afraid of being intercepted, Parker passed the ball with great force, and it arrived at Wang Li's feet almost in the blink of an eye. At this moment, Wang Li glanced towards the penalty area out of the corner of his eye, and at the same time did not choose to stop the ball but pushed the ball with the inside of his right foot---
The ball changes direction and goes straight into the penalty area
The pass was too sudden and the Porto players were unable to react at all. The same went for Drogba. He only reacted when the ball was almost at his feet. He stopped in a hurry, turned around and shot, but he failed to kick with enough force and the ball was kicked out of the goal by the opponent's goalkeeper Nuno and flew back into the penalty area.
However, the danger is not over.
Just when the Porto supporters breathed a sigh of relief, a blue figure appeared in front of the ball.
Scott Parker
Just after passing the ball to Wang Li, he ran directly into the penalty area to look for opportunities. Success always favors those who work hard. Facing this hard-earned chance to shoot, Parker was a little excited. He kicked the bottom of the football with all his strength. The ball was about 5 meters away from the goal. The ball went straight into the dead corner without any obstruction. Goalkeeper Nuno could only sigh.
"Goooooooooooooooal, the ball goes in!" At the same time, the commentator Mr. Small immediately shouted---
"Chelsea's No. 19, Scott Parker, has done a great job. This goal equalized the score for Chelsea and now the score is 2:2. Undoubtedly, after Allen came on the court, Chelsea's offense became smoother. This offense was completely led by Allen. He has become an indispensable member of Chelsea's goal scoring team."
"Scott Parker's last shot was also very exciting. This English player is getting better and better. With this kind of performance, the Swede will probably be very excited. I wish him a chance to join the England team."
Seeing Chelsea score, Mourinho also stood up from the coaching seat happily and hugged the assistant coach to celebrate. After the celebration, Mourinho looked at the blue number 19 on the field and thought to himself, "Should I give him more opportunities in the future?"
On the court, Scott Parker was obviously very excited after the attack. He excitedly ran over and gave Drogba a long hug, then excitedly clapped his hands with Wang Li, and then was directly pressed down by the Chelsea players who came over to celebrate.
This is also Scott Parker's first goal in the UEFA Champions League. You know, he only scored one goal in 11 appearances for Chelsea last season. This goal is really important to him. Although he is not a pure striker, scoring goals is still very important to consolidate his position in Chelsea.
PS: I have some personal matters to deal with recently, and I was so busy that the quality and efficiency may be a little poor.
We are very sorry. We will resume updating from tomorrow. Thank you all for your support.
