Matic immediately picked up the football from the net and ran back to the center circle.
Diego Costa waved his hands wildly towards the stands.
Stamford Bridge is no longer the quiet library!
The young Chelsea fans shouted wildly.
"Chelsea!!!"
"Chelsea!!!"
"Chelsea!!!"
The score was reduced to one goal, rekindling hopes of overtaking!
Leverkusen's defensive players are feeling miserable.
The matchup was crushed and it was impossible to defend against it.
Leno kicked the goalpost hard.
He performed well tonight, but the defense was too fragile. Even Real Madrid's top goalkeeper, Navas, could not escape a disastrous defeat when he returned to the Costa Rica national team.
Van Dyke patiently encouraged Jonathan Tower: "Don't lose your position, learn to retreat!"
Bender and Cramer felt guilty.
Ivanovic was so easily crushed in the dynamic defense.
.....
VIP box.
Abramovich applauded vigorously and laughed and scolded: "Hiddink, wouldn't it be over if he joined Diego Costa earlier? Remy and Pato are only suitable for the secondary league."
The staff nodded quickly: "The Chinese Super League's offer for Remy is 14 million pounds, which will be settled as a one-time payment."
After hearing this, Abu was stunned for two seconds and said in surprise: "Don't they need to use their brains to buy people? They are really stupid and have a lot of money!"
Forget it about Ramirez for 28 million euros.
Can Remy still be worth 100 million yuan?
The staff added: "There is another Chinese Super League club, and they are very interested in Oscar. The initial offer is 58 million..."
His tone could not conceal his excitement.
Chelsea is not only a European powerhouse with zero debt, but its operating conditions are also very healthy.
If Remy and Oscar were packaged and sold to the Chinese Super League, they would have been used for two years, and they would have made a net profit of tens of millions of pounds!
Abu was silent.
After a moment, he said: "Tell Skaya to respect the player's attitude. Chelsea is not short of money."
Oscar is still very young, and even if he leaves Chelsea, he is fully capable of securing a starting position in a powerful team in the five major leagues.
....
Courtside.
Old Man Top urged Calhanoglu and Bellarabi to warm up quickly.
Chelsea's impact at this stage is very strong.
The competition intensity will be very high.
The physical exertion of Leverkusen players will be very intense.
Substitutions must be made within a time period of sixty to seventy minutes.
Dino was very nervous and asked: "Boss, will it be useful to replace them? I suggest replacing Papadopoulos!"
Old Man Top shook his head: "It's hard to hold on, we have to release Li! Play around him!"
The other side.
Hiddink has regained his coaching style.
He sat back on the coaching bench, folded his hands on his chest, and smiled.
There is no command.
As long as this group of Chelsea players perform to their normal level...
Go ahead? Isn’t that a matter of course?
....
The circle reopens during the game.
Kiessling hit the kick and hit Son Heung-min.
The South Korean forward immediately passed the ball back to Lee Kang after receiving the ball.
From God's perspective.
Diego Costa and Oscar started a crazy press.
The "first line of defense" constitutes.
Ivanovic crossed the center circle again.
Echoing William, Oscar, Hazard and Matic.
The “second line of defense” is no longer sandwich cookies.
At this time.
Mikel retreated to fill the defensive gap on the right.
The "third line of defense" moves forward steadily.
The Mosquito is not just for defense.
Chelsea's formation at the moment, with overwhelming momentum, dominated Leverkusen's half.
....
Li Kang runs back and forth in the backcourt. In the gap between passing and receiving, he must also coordinate his teammates who are being pressed and look for opportunities to counterattack.
Want to break through the "second line of defense" of the Muscle Bus.
Need to guide teammates to move.
But the current situation does not meet this condition at all.
Leverkusen's players cannot maintain the triangle space like the Spanish national team in high-pressure situations.
When Chelsea's bus ran over the 40-meter zone.
Changes occur suddenly.
"Oops, Bender's mistake!"
"Oscar easily intercepted the ball!"
"Chelsea's attack is back!"
....
The blue bus suddenly accelerated.
No complex offensive tactics are required.
Relying on the personal abilities of the midfielders and frontcourt players, Leverkusen's defense can be smashed to pieces!
Kramer, who came to help defend, decisively counterattacked.
Oscar's release angle was blocked.
Raise your right foot and knock the ball behind you.
Matic comes forward with the ball.
He possesses delicate skills that belie his size.
There are no fancy cross-pass scheduling transfers, and there is no need to look for any gaps in the defense.
A sweep of the thigh.
The football hit the Leverkusen backcourt!
Because, there is Diego Costa!
....
"Having a strong top center makes it much easier for the passer."
"That's why Hiddink removed Cesc Fabregas."
"To deal with Leverkusen's defense, you don't need too high passing accuracy."
"Diego Costa is a guarantee of impact!"
Stamford Bridge, Chelsea's team anthem sounds!
The football fell near the top of the penalty area.
Bounce high.
Van Dijk cannot retreat.
He later observed that there were no other Chelsea reinforcements.
While blocking Diego Costa's position, he raised his hand to direct Jonathan Tower, who was closest to the football, to clear the ball quickly!
A perfect defensive strategy.
But.
The Dutch central defender faced the Blues striker at his peak.
Chelsea's last reliable striker since Drogba retired!
The beastly man who made European defenses fearful.
Diego Costa!
...
With shouts from Stamford Bridge.
Van Dyke fell to the turf in despair.
Yonata Tower's explosive speed was very slow. He rushed to the ball and was about to make a clearance when he saw the red-eyed Diego Costa.
A physical contest without any suspense.
Chelsea's striker has agile steps that go against his strong physique. He reaches out with his right leg and firmly controls the ball.
Ignore the obstruction of the black central defender.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Launch a rush!
Leverkusen's defense at this time was turned upside down!
Old Man Top was dumbfounded.
Dino opened his mouth wide.
Hiddink was trembling all over.
"Too powerful!"
"This is the striker that many teams dream of!"
"good chance!"
"You can open the door now!"
Diego Costa's shooting action is very concealed, making it difficult for the goalkeeper to judge the direction of the save.
But it is different from Li Kang.
His leg swing is very small, but he can unleash extremely domineering explosive shots.
After all, he is the killer who competed with Melo for the Golden Boot.
Snapped!
It's not a blast that echoes across the sky.
The moment Diego Costa completed the shot, he poked the football with one of his toes.
The football flew out of the baseline.
Like a kite with its string broken.
Stamford Bridge, sighs are endless.
Tens of thousands of Chelsea fans lamented the missed opportunity.
Diego Costa was confused: Is this okay?
Wait until you see the number on the opponent's jersey.
Feeling relieved.
He couldn't help but patted Li Kang's butt and gave a thumbs up.
"Oops! Can this also fly? It's not Diego Costa's normal level. His shooting skills..."
"Let's see the slow motion replay..."
"It's so exciting! Li Kang's left foot affected the ball-touching part of the opponent's shot!"
"A battle between two Spanish teammates."
“Incredible!”
"Only historical-level defenders like Maldini and Nesta can do this, right?"
"Such a god-level midfielder is so rare! The closest model to him in history may be Gullit?"
Duan Xuan and He Wei tried very hard to maintain an objective stance.
On the one hand, I marveled at Li Kang's miraculous performance on both offense and defense.
On the one hand, I feel sorry for his hard-working way of being both a father and a mother.
....
Li Kang has never been so tired as tonight.
In the field of vision, the phantom of Nesta still refused to retreat.
"Red and Black Soul" amplifies the second personality of the Super Divine Guard.
arrogant.
sensitive.
Brutal.
Nesta is not as "elegant" as described in the news media, he has a bad temper.
....
Courtside.
Old Man Top did not have the joy of remaining alive after his death, and sighed: "Every time he returns to the penalty area, he gives up a lot of things..."
Dino nodded vigorously in agreement and added: "Li seems to have discovered a flaw in Chelsea's forward pressing offensive. It's a pity that his teammates can't provide support for counterattacks..."
"If the defense can solve the problem independently and complete the counterattack transition, Li can completely play in the frontcourt..."
The other side.
Hiddink looked at the time and became increasingly impatient.
Damn it, I still have to score two goals!
....
VIP box.
Abu frowned and kept chattering:
"Leverkusen's coaching team doesn't know as much about football as I do!"
"How can they let a genius like Lee return to the back line?"
"With the development of modern football to this day, within the same timeline, if you let the midfielder do the defensive work, you will inevitably lose a good opportunity to counterattack!"
"They actually let Lee play such ugly football. He was eating Eskimo ice cream with a silver spoon!"
The staff members echoed this.
I can't help but wonder: If Li really joins Chelsea, how should we build a team around him?
...
The game time passes minute by minute.
Everyone in the audience became increasingly nervous.
Chelsea's offensive method was simple and crude, ravaging Leverkusen's delicate defense like crazy.
Van Dijk led the team to retreat into the penalty area.
Li Kang was active in front of the penalty area, constantly rushing back and forth to cover up defense, and repeatedly resolved critical and dangerous situations.
From God's perspective.
Chelsea's high defensive line has flaws very frequently.
But he was unable to create counterattack opportunities during changes of possession and fierce confrontations.
Just because Mikel, Matic, and Ivanovic counterattacked too intensively.
The task of Leverkusen's counterattack was handed over to Calhanoglu who came on the bench.
It's a pity that the core midfielder lost his passing accuracy when he was interfered with.
Fierce fighting.
The extremely fierce intensity of the game caused the physical strength of all Leverkusen teammates to drain away rapidly.
Even Li Kang himself, his movements gradually couldn't keep up with his brain.
"A shaky defense."
"In positional battles, the physical exertion of defensive players will be greater."
"Chelsea was just one breath away from scoring a goal."
"Every clearance Li Kang makes is crucial, but it consumes a lot of energy. He is like a moving shield..."
"The game is still full of suspense!"
.....
Studio.
The audience was extremely anxious.
-[Is Chelsea still fighting? It’s almost 80 minutes, the score is now 1:2, can they still score two goals to eliminate Leverkusen?]
- [I really hate this kind of scene. If Li Mingdeng continues to defend like this, the Chelsea players will collapse, lose morale, and give up the game... This is only reasonable. I will not watch his games in the future!]
- [Are you stupid after reading novels? What kind of ancient routine can you still say silly words like "losing morale"? Professional players are paid to work, and the whole world is watching! Try to be lazy? 】
...
The 84th minute of the game.
Bellarabi, who came on as a substitute, defended Hazard!
It's just a defense with your hands!
The left side of the front edge of the penalty area.
Facing the unstoppable English superman, the black striker couldn't help but put his hands around his opponent's waist.
After Azar fell to the ground.
Beep!
The referee blows the whistle.
"Chelsea get a perfectly placed free kick!"
"The tidal wave of offensive finally paid off!"
"Rabbi Bella received a yellow card for pulling."
"Hope remains at Stamford Bridge!"
....
Courtside.
Old Man Top covered his eyes nervously.
Dino's expression was tangled: "If William were to take the penalty... this position would be no different from a penalty kick."
The coaching staff carefully studied the characteristics of Chelsea's set pieces before the game.
You don’t know if you don’t see it.
I was shocked when I saw it.
William's free kick shooting percentage so far this season is as high as 22%!
The other side.
Hiddink couldn't sit still and walked to the command area excitedly.
Looking lovingly at the wall of people lined up.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is still a chance!
How could Leverkusen stop us!
...
Stamford Bridge fell into silence.
Leno stood in the far corner of the goal, directing the wall.
After William and Oscar covered their mouths to communicate, they stood on both sides of the football.
Beep!
Accompanied by the referee's whistle.
William moved.
He is the freshest free kick master this season.
Four out of five free throws in the Champions League.
The hit rate is as high as 80%.
Take the free kick as a penalty kick.
I would not dare to write a novel like this.
Boom!
After three steps of approach.
The inner instep of the Samba genius' right foot hit the bottom of the football hard!
In an instant.
Leverkusen players jumped to their feet!
The football was sticking to the turf and was about to pass under the wall!
Li Kang didn't jump.
In the field of vision, Nesta's phantom was manic and restless, and Bergkamp's phantom struggled out!
Barrier stops the ball!
...
It was beyond everyone's expectation.
Leverkusen No. 10 stepped out with his right leg and stopped the passing football!
Not a rescue!
It's a stop!
The football cleverly landed fifty centimeters in front of him!
The players on both sides didn’t react at all!
"Super God Cutoff?"
"horrible!"
"Chelsea's ground-breaking attack came to an abrupt end!"
"Li Kang!"
William held his afro, his eyes dull.
What the hell kind of reaction is this? De Gea can’t do it, can he?
Dino pried open Old Man Top's fingers.
Hiddink's face was ashen.
Abu was stunned.
The tens of thousands of spectators at Stamford Bridge were stunned.
....
From God's perspective.
Chelsea's backcourt is like an empty aristocratic garden.
Snapped!
Li Kang moved the ball and started to accelerate!
Fight back?
Counterattack from the front of your own penalty area to the opponent's penalty area?
is it possible?
possible!
Rabbi Bella was the first to react.
He ran wildly and quickly surpassed Li Kang who was advancing with the ball.
Mbappe's one-goal success with Monaco in Ligue 1 is not over yet.
In the speed rating of the five major leagues: Bella Rabbi is the fastest black man!
Fourth in the world!
35.27 km/h running speed without the ball!!!
....
"Chelsea put all their forces into the set-piece attack!"
"Li Kang is very fast!"
"There's also Bella Rabbi at the frontcourt reception point!"
"The only opponent for the two of them is Terry, who is dragging him at the back of the formation!"
"Oh! William is catching up!"
The Leverkusen fans who went with the army were shouting like crazy!
The whole second half was painful.
As the game comes to an end, I finally see hope again!
....
William's professional attitude is very upright.
It didn't last long.
Then he tried his best to catch up with Li Kang.
Even if you commit a foul, you must stop the North Rhine genius from counterattacking!
He stretched out his hand and barely grasped the hem of the No. 10 jersey.
Snapped!
The football has left Li Kang's left foot.
Like an arrow.
Swift as the wind.
Passed behind Terry!
The Chelsea central defender immediately turned around, only to see the black man in white robe passing by!
"Rabbi Bella!"
"Single sword!"
"Courtois strikes!"
....
Tear!
William was stunned in place, with a piece of white cloth on the palm of his right hand.
He failed to stop Li Kang from running wildly!
Lens extended!
Chelsea half-time.
Only three people can be seen!
Rabbi Bella, one against two!
....
Thirty meters area.
The moment Bellarabi touches the ball.
The speed slowed down suddenly.
Facing the oncoming Courtois.
He is very nervous.
Terry was still chasing closely behind him.
How can a T2.5 forward fight two T0 defenders?
There is no space for lob shots and side shots.
His physical fitness is great, but his vision and awareness are the most criticized.
The brain is blank.
I can't see clearly what the environment is.
Expression dull.
Courtois is about to destroy the ball!
...
The little braised egg with exaggeratedly receding hairline reflects the spotlight of Stamford Bridge.
A flash of inspiration.
A certain scene flashed by!
right!
I want to learn Cazorla!
Although you can’t see it!
But Li can definitely catch up!
...
In the eyes of everyone present.
The long black legs grabbed the ball in front of Courtois's Nike sneakers!
"Oblique pass?"
"Don't you want to deduct it?"
"Waste...beautiful! What kind of vision and football intelligence does Bella Rabbi have?"
"Li Kang!"
....
Football is not given much power.
But Chelsea's defense had no options left.
In the lens.
The sight of No. 10 in white made all Chelsea fans despair.
It was an undisturbed location.
It’s just an empty-net long-range shooting practice on the training ground!
Old Man Top's eyes were red with excitement.
Dino looked stunned.
Hiddink kept raising his glasses and refused to put his hands down for a long time.
....
Li Kang welcomes football.
There was no longer any shadow of the legendary star in his field of vision.
All negative emotions dissipate.
The shadow cast by the brain shrunk into a black dot.
No more strength.
This time the finishing blow.
Without any assistance.
His heart was as calm as water.
Boom!
A mediocre instep shot!
There are no exaggerated arcs.
There is no overwhelming momentum.
There is no stunning ball speed.
The football just stuck to the turf and rolled towards the gate of Stamford Bridge.
Courtois had no time to chase back.
He turned around.
Watching Chelsea's proud concrete defense.
It was penetrated by an ordinary shot.
...
The football quietly passed over the goal line, lifting up the white net.
Stamford Bridge was silent.
All hopes were completely shattered.
It's like a dream again.
Chelsea fans find it difficult to accept the reality of what is happening.
Hiddink didn't know when he sat on the turf.
Abu in the VIP box is filled with sorrow and joy.
1:3!!!
"An arrow pierces the heart!"
"No problem!"
"In the 87th minute of the game, Li Kang killed the game!"
"According to the principle of favorable away goals, Chelsea must score three more goals to advance!"
"Will there be another miracle at Stamford Bridge?"
"Tonight, Li Kang himself is a miracle!"
"Leverkusen, if we persist in the last few minutes, we can break into the semi-finals of the Champions League again!"
"He is North Rhine's strongest barrier and its sharpest blade!"
"Two shots, one pass, three goals."
"Li Kang has carried Bayer Leverkusen here, and he can go further!"
....
Studio.
Barrage flying.
-【What a surprise!】
-[Chelsea was actually breached by Li Kang using Ballack and Lampard’s method!]
-[What Pjanic, Pogba aside, I would like to call Li Kang the strongest midfielder of the new generation.]
- [Crying, why did Chelsea have to draw Leverkusen! Can’t they draw Barcelona! 】
...
Courtside.
Old Man Top and the players on the bench hugged each other tightly.
Dino wiped his eyes: "Boss, there is so much sand in London..."
The other side.
Hiddink sat on the turf, his eyes dull.
No matter what others shout.
He didn't want to get up either.
wrong.
It is my fault.
The proud Dutch coach was filled with guilt.
.....
VIP box.
The staff were silent.
Abu didn't get angry like before.
"There is no shame in losing."
"It's not as bad as you think."
"Let Hiddink focus on returning to the Premier League."
...
Rabbi Bella excitedly put his arms around Li Kang's shoulders.
"Li, I have observed your position a long time ago!"
"We both thought of going together!"
Teammates gathered around him one after another.
Leno ran all the way and rushed to the celebration place.
Apart from carnival.
Everyone seems to be dreaming.
Even many teammates never imagined that they would be so close to the semi-finals of the Champions League...
....
Final stage.
Chelsea didn't give up.
They are still attacking Leverkusen's gate frantically.
No one is counting how many goals are needed to advance.
In the 95th minute of the game, the last minute of injury time.
Willian kicked a long shot from the arc of the penalty area, blasting open Leverkusen's door.
2:3!!!
No celebration.
Stamford Bridge is like a quiet library.
Beep! Beep beep~
last moment.
The referee blew the whistle to end the game.
Someone is happy.
Someone is sad.
...
"Leverkusen advances, Chelsea is eliminated."
"This is a result that most fans did not expect before the game."
"That's what football is like. The joy of one side sets off the sadness of the other. The extreme emotions of human beings are fully reflected and released at this moment."
"Willian's face was stained with tears, Courtois buried his head deeply into his knees, Hazard took the burger from the staff, and Cahill gently stroked Azpilicueta's cheek.
Beautiful hair.”
"No matter whether your favorite team wins or loses, as long as you feel what it showed on the field, this game will not be in vain."
"Li Kang and his friends continue their journey in this Champions League. They may go to the Bernabeu, Etihad, Camp Nou, Calderon, Turin, Munich..."
"Bless them and this fledgling talented midfielder. I hope he can reach the top of the Champions League in his best years and touch the big-eared trophy that countless players dream of!"
He Wei prepared two manuscripts early.
I thought that Xiao Lizi would be eliminated, but he planned to stir up excitement.
Duan Xuan was a little annoyed and couldn't get a word in.
....
Li Kang was completely exhausted and lay on his back on the turf.
