Looking at Lei Yu celebrating wantonly behind the baseline, Villas-Boas was also a little confused.
Faced with such a wonderful passing goal, it is difficult for him to say that Lei Yu is a player who focuses on defense.
Just like Ashley Cole and Santos in this game, these two people are born to attack, so letting them focus on defense is simply overkill.
"Did I really use it wrong?"
"If Ray was placed in a more advanced position last season, would he have scored more goals?"
The turmoil coming from Stamford Bridge reminded Villas-Boas of what Lei Yu said to him before the game.
"This kid really shocked Stamford Bridge!"
The score changed again, and with it, the mentality of the players and fans.
This is at Stamford Bridge. Ever since Abramovich took over at Chelsea, Arsenal has long been ignored by the Blues.
Before the game, everyone felt that it was quite a blessing for the Gunners to take away a point at Stamford Bridge this season.
Now that the score is overtaking, the first one who does not accept the status quo is naturally the Blues fans.
At this moment, smoke was burning in the sky above Stamford Bridge. The fans sang the team anthem loudly and cheered for the team with their loud voices.
For a time, the Blues' momentum surged.
"There are still more than thirty minutes left before the end of the game, and there is still a chance for both teams."
"Now that the home team is lagging behind, the fans obviously can't accept it."
"You have to know that the last time Arsenal scored three goals at Stamford Bridge was in 1996, when Kanu completed a hat-trick."
"Arsenal is no better than before. They played very well in the first ten minutes of the second half."
"For Arsenal, they must defend well now."
"The other one, like Lei Yu's two goals, Arsenal must seize any similar offensive opportunities!"
After all is said and done, Zhan Jun still wants Arsenal to pay attention to the control on the defensive end.
However, the big opening and closing on the court once again denied Zhan Jun's point of view.
In the 58th minute, Arsenal's long pass hit the frontcourt, and Arshavin's furious shot missed;
In the 60th minute, Chelsea's long ball was lobbed into the Gunners penalty area, but Szczesny struck out in time to break out of the penalty area;
Two minutes later, the Blues struck again, and Lampard's long shot was blocked by Koscielny.
In just ten minutes, the two sides fought three back-and-forth attacks, and the scene was extremely fierce.
In the 66th minute, Tsar Arshavin finally gave out.
He was often "lost" in the frontcourt and was finally replaced by the disappointed Wenger. His replacement was veteran Rosicky.
This season, with Cesc Fabregas and Nasri leaving the team one after another, Rosicky decided to stay with the team. The Czech's attitude won praise from all Gunners fans.
Rosicky provided strong support to the Gunners' frontcourt as soon as he came on the field.
He resisted Terry to receive Lei Yu's pass, and then saw the right opportunity to push the ball back to Lei Yu's front.
Lei Yu, who was accelerating his sprint, took advantage of a teammate's collision with the wall to break through the defense of three people and break into the opponent's penalty area.
Because a teammate touched the ball midway, Lei Yu's scoring rate did not accumulate.
When he stopped the ball in front of the baseline, Ivanovic was stuck behind him.
This time, all the cameras focused on Lei Yu, whose toes were hot.
Since he began to actively move forward to outflank and participate in the offense in the penalty area, the cameras began to frequently focus on him.
Facing Ivanovic's close defense, Lei Yu stopped the ball and turned around, seemingly wanting to take the ball out of the penalty area and then reorganize.
Seeing this, Ivanovic quickly moved to keep up, but at this moment, Lei Yu kicked his heel inward, and the ball was pushed to the baseline by him again.
Ivanovic never expected that Lei Yu could continue to take the ball towards the baseline in this situation, and Lei Yu turned his back to him and tapped his heel, and the ball almost slipped away under his nose.
But even so, he still didn't react.
When he stretched out his hand to pull Lei Yu's jersey, Lei Yu had already run out of position in the opposite direction.
Cool!
Ivanovic fell to the ground subconsciously and used his last strength to reach the ball at Lei Yu's feet.
But Lei Yu was faster and quickly moved the ball in front of him, avoiding the opponent's tackle.
In front of the vertical line of the small penalty area, facing Cech rushing towards him, Lei Yu directly launched a kick, betting that the goal rate was only 40%.
puff!!!
The helmeted man opened his arms and blocked Lei Yu's shot with his chest.
There was a sigh from the visiting team's stands.
Lei Yu's shot made Stamford Bridge tremble again.
Fortunately, the bridge is still standing.
"Oops, Lei Yu can't pass the ball!" Zhan Jun also couldn't understand whether Lei Yu was passing or shooting. From this angle, he could even shoot.
"It's too difficult. Cech's attack was too timely!"
"Arsenal must pay attention to strengthening their defense at this time to prevent Chelsea's fast break!"
The pace of the game is so fast. Cech just blocked the ball here, and in less than five seconds the ball reached the Arsenal half.
Fortunately, Mertesacker was tall and used his body to squeeze Torres, and Szczesny easily got the ball.
The camera flashed over Torres, and Zhan Jun took the opportunity to say: "Torres didn't have many opportunities to perform in this game."
Although it is just a short sentence, it has its own comparison in the hearts of fans.
Torres didn't play much, but what about our Lei Yu?
Haha, make a decisive decision!
Of course, the coach will not judge whether a player is qualified based on his performance in a game, but fans will not.
As Lei Yu takes more and more shots in the frontcourt, the status of Lampard, John Terry, Torres, and Ashley Cole in the hearts of fans has plummeted.
Isn’t it true that Arsenal is poorer, has poor average strength, and has too many injuries?
So what?
As long as Lei Yu is here, Arsenal will be invincible!
In the 65th minute of the game, Sturridge, who wasted many opportunities, was also replaced by Malouda.
Both sides replaced a forward with strong physical strength and continued to strengthen their offense.
Both teams attacked very fiercely and the offensive rhythm was also very fast.
In this high-quality offensive match, there were not many fouls, and there was not much excitement between the two sides.
Just like masters cherish each other, even if there are a few fouls occasionally, the players on both sides will focus on how to use the foul to assist their teammates to score, instead of just uttering curse words, complaining about the referee and insulting the opponent.
So even though the referee has shown three yellow cards so far in the game, the overall rhythm of the game has not been disrupted.
The two sides have reached this point, and no one wants to disrupt their own rhythm because of a meaningless quarrel.
For Chelsea, of course they hope to equalize the score as soon as possible, but for Arsenal, who told you that we can't win at Stamford Bridge?
If we score another goal, who of you will dare to say that we can't win!
At this stage, the Gunners' desire to win has also increased.
