Chapter 569: Battle of revenge, Manchester City fights Chelsea again

In the 31st round of the Premier League, Manchester City ushered in a very important game - an away game against Chelsea.

Due to the great unpleasantness between the two teams in the previous match at the Etihad Stadium, the hatred between the two teams has accumulated deep.

Manchester City now hates Chelsea even more than their city rivals Manchester United.

Therefore, for this game, Manchester City is working hard and vowing to avenge its shame!

Chelsea is the current leader of the Premier League and the favorite to win the Premier League.

Although Manchester City's record has declined somewhat this season, the outside world still highly recognizes their strength.

In particular, the entire Manchester City team came with full anger, which made many people optimistic that Manchester City could get revenge in the away game.

But once Manchester City really defeats Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, it will definitely crush Chelsea's dream of winning the championship.

It will also bring new suspense to the ownership of the Premier League championship this season!

Currently in the standings, the closest to Chelsea is this season's dark horse team Tottenham.

Tottenham is currently only 7 points behind Chelsea. If Tottenham wins and Chelsea loses this round, the point difference will be reduced to 4 points.

With 7 rounds left in the league, 4 points is still very suspenseful.

Therefore, the outside world is paying great attention to this game. Whether they are fans of these two teams or not, they are paying close attention to the progress of this game.

Before the game officially started, the entire Chelsea team looked very serious.

They felt that the opponent was unkind and today's game was destined to not be easy.

Fortunately, good news came from another game. Tottenham's opponent tonight, Swansea, scored shortly after the opening and currently leads Tottenham 1:0.

If this score remains until the end, that is good news for Chelsea. Even if they fail to win Manchester City at home, the point difference between them and Tottenham will not narrow.

However, this is their home court, and Chelsea still hopes to win their opponents at home.

In the past five years, Chelsea has never beaten Manchester City twice. The last game they won was a fluke and even a bit disgraceful. So this time, they want to defeat Manchester City in an upright manner and let the doubts from the outside world disappear completely!

Both teams were in very good shape today. After the game started, the two teams were back and forth and the game was in full swing.

Only 10 minutes into the game, the first goal was scored.

Chelsea's full-back, Spanish international Azpilicueta, made a pass from the bottom. Hazard received the ball and shot home. Chelsea took the lead in scoring.

Warm applause broke out at Stamford Bridge, and even Abramovich, who was sitting in the stands, stood up and applauded Hazard for scoring.

Hazard's performance this season is really good!

Under Conte's guidance, Hazard changed from last year's sluggish state and not only returned to the top, but even went one step further and has one foot on the threshold of the super giant!

As long as he can continue to improve like this, Abramovich believes that sooner or later he will become Chelsea's super giant!

Abramovich has always wanted to bring a super giant to Chelsea, but unfortunately the number of super giants is too small, they are expensive but not marketable, and it cannot be solved with money.

But fortunately, Chelsea can still cultivate superstars themselves, and it is far more fulfilling to cultivate them yourself than to buy people at high prices from outside!

When he thought of this, Abu felt how much he liked Azar!

After the Chelsea people finished celebrating, everyone looked very proud.

Didn’t you, Manchester City, say that we defeated you by relying on off-court moves?

So what do you say now?

Chelsea scored in just 10 minutes, which gave many Chelsea fans the illusion that they would beat Manchester City at home!

However, the Chelsea people did not seem to notice that Manchester City did not show any panic after falling behind, but instead seemed particularly calm.

The players' fighting spirit and confidence have not been affected in any way, and even their playing style has not changed much.

This group of players from Manchester City have experienced too many games. What kind of scenes have they not seen?

It's just a goal behind at the beginning. It's a small scene. There's nothing to be nervous about!

With the strength of our Manchester City, it won’t be a matter of minutes to recover?

Manchester City is really not bragging!

In the 18th minute, Manchester City launched a quick counterattack. Sane dribbled the ball down and knocked it horizontally in front of the goal. Lin Quan, who was on the near end, threw his body out, but still missed the ball by a little.

But Aguero, who was outflanking from behind, succeeded. He used a shovel shot from the ground to help the team equalize the score.

At this time, less than 10 minutes had passed since Chelsea scored.

Manchester City's quick equalizer made Chelsea people feel very angry, because they were happy for nothing before!

After both sides returned to the same starting line, the competition became more intense.

At this time, the two teams have already tested each other's true and false, and both have understood the other's tactics.

Chelsea did not choose a defensive counterattack at their home court, but chose offensive tactics.

Manchester City was not timid when playing away games and also chose to attack.

Since they all chose to attack tacitly, let's compete to see whose knife is sharper!

In the 19th minute, Gundogan suddenly shot a long shot. Chelsea's goalkeeper made a key save and lifted the ball over the crossbar.

In the 21st minute, Manchester City's offense once again hit Chelsea's penalty area. After Lin Quan broke through, he attracted a double-team from two defenders of the opponent, but he successfully passed the ball out before the opponent completed the double-team.

After receiving the ball, Aguero directly shot towards the goal, but unfortunately his close shot was saved by the goalkeeper. Manchester City missed an excellent opportunity to change the score.

In the 28th minute, Sane got a semi-lone chance, but his feet were mixed and he fell in the penalty area.

Sane was very unconvinced after falling and felt that the Chelsea defender had pushed him, otherwise he would not have fallen.

But the referee didn't say anything. The replay on the big screen showed that Chelsea's defender did make some moves on his hands, but it was obvious that Sane tripped himself. It was hard to tell whether he tripped himself or was pushed down.

After Manchester City's offense took off, Chelsea was once tightly suppressed in its own half, unable to take a step beyond its reach.

But Chelsea is a team that is very good at defensive counterattacks. Just when Blues fans were worried that their team would be overwhelmed by Manchester City's stormy offense, Chelsea launched a new round of counterattacks.

In the 34th minute, Chelsea's counterattack hit the penalty area. When Pedro was dribbling the ball in the penalty area, he was tripped by the Manchester City player defending him.

The referee pointed to the penalty spot and awarded Chelsea a crucial penalty kick.

After seeing this penalty, the expressions on the faces of Blues fans instantly turned from cloudy to clear, and many people even celebrated happily.

What's the use of Manchester City attacking so fiercely?

In the end, wasn’t it Chelsea who scored first?

It seemed that the fans were so happy that they were so sad. When Hazard took the penalty kick, Navas judged the right direction and saved it.

The joy on the faces of Chelsea fans solidified!

But this guy Hazard made up for it quickly!

After the corner kick was taken, Chelsea's players grabbed the spot, but the ball they pushed hit the post and bounced back.

The ball bounced back just in front of Hazard. Without thinking, Hazard swept the ball into the net with a sweep.

2:1, Chelsea took the lead again.

Chelsea fans, who were in high and low moods, waited cautiously until the referee confirmed that the goal was valid and the score on the big screen was completely fixed before they dared to start celebrating.

But Chelsea fans couldn't be happy for long. In the 39th minute, Lin Quan used an incredible S-shaped free kick to directly penetrate Chelsea's goal and once again equalized the score.

Seeing the opponent's No. 10, even the most staunch Chelsea fans couldn't help but shudder.

This guy is simply a killer for the Blues. Every time he comes to Stamford Bridge, he will definitely score!

This has simply become an ironclad rule!

After Lin Quan scored this goal, there was not much time left in the first half. The two sides failed to score further, and the score of 2:2 remained until the end of the half.

This score is not unacceptable to Chelsea people, especially when they learned that Tottenham was still lagging behind Swansea, they felt even more relieved.

In view of Manchester City's ferocious offensive firepower, Conte had to be pragmatic and chose to play defensive counterattack in the second half.

He could see that Chelsea could not create as many opportunities as Manchester City in a positional battle.

Although Hazard's breakthrough is very strong, there is a stronger Lin Quan on the opposite side.

Moreover, Lin Quan is not only strong in breakthrough ability, but also has strong abilities in passing, shooting and other aspects.

In addition, this guy also has a variety of free kicks, which is hard to guard against.

Passing and controlling is Manchester City's specialty. If they continue to play against each other, the ball will be in the opponent's hands most of the time, making it difficult for Chelsea to get opportunities, which is very disadvantageous for Chelsea.

So choose a defensive counterattack that is more efficient and does not rely on ball possession!

The fifteen-minute break ended quickly, and the two sides returned to the court to continue the game.

Conte's training of Chelsea was very successful. After Chelsea switched to defensive counterattack, Manchester City's offensive difficulty increased greatly, and the number of shots in the second half was much less than in the first half.

It was also very uncomfortable for Chelsea. The opponent's ball possession rate was too high, and the ball was almost completely in the hands of Manchester City. They wanted to counterattack, but they had no chance at all.

After finally finding two opportunities, Manchester City learned the lesson from the first half and used two tactical fouls to destroy their offense early.

Although this cost Manchester City two yellow cards, Gundogan and Clichy, who received cards, were replaced in the 67th and 73rd minutes of the second half respectively.

It is difficult for Chelsea to do anything with these two yellow cards!

The game was a bit stagnant for a while, and neither side could change the score for a while.

Seeing that the score on the field would not change in a short time, Conte returned to the coaching bench and asked the assistant about the situation at Tottenham.

"The score at Tottenham is still 1:0?"

"No, Tottenham just scored, and now it's 1:1!"

The assistant coach's face looked a little ugly. The Tottenham game was about to end, but in the 88th minute, Tottenham scored.

This is really unacceptable, Swansea, couldn't you have held on for a few more minutes?

Are you a relegation team?

Don’t you know how important these 3 points are to you?

It's time for everyone to retreat to the restricted area, set up the ultimate bus, and defend to the end. Isn't it good?

"It's 1:2, Eriksen also scored!"

Just when they were sighing, Tottenham actually reversed the game.

At this moment, everyone on the Chelsea bench fell silent.

"Damn Swansea, the mud really can't hold up the wall, there's no hope!"

It's too outrageous. It's only been a few minutes and two goals have been scored. Is your defense made of tofu?

"Well, the latest news, the score over there has become 1:3, and Kane also scored."

The assistant coach was still faithfully reporting Tottenham's game report, but he didn't know that his words sounded like the whispers of a devil to his colleagues, making them feel uncomfortable and want to cry.

These beasts from Tottenham are so fierce. They fucked the opponent three times in a few minutes. Isn't this a fucking fight?

In fact, the reason why Tottenham is so fierce has a lot to do with Chelsea's anxious score.

Tottenham fans who were traveling with the team, after learning the score at Stamford Bridge, shouted in unison in the away game and told the players on the field the score.

After learning that Chelsea had been tied and might even lose, Tottenham's players seemed to have exploded into a small universe. They transformed into Super Saiyans one by one, pinning opponents who had previously been unable to beat to the ground and blasting hammers in minutes. Over and over again.

Chelsea wants this title, Tottenham want it even more than they do!

The last time Tottenham won the championship dates back to 1961, which is 56 years ago!

Liverpool and Arsenal have not had a league title in more than ten or twenty years, and they are so anxious. Who knows the hardships of Tottenham?

A whole 56 years!

Tottenham fans don’t even know how they and the team survived!

This year is Tottenham's best opportunity. If they can't seize it, they may have to wait for so long!

The news of Tottenham's victory on the field quickly spread on the Internet.

Among them, the spontaneous actions of Tottenham fans in the away game have become a hot topic on the Internet.

Manchester City fans who were traveling with the team suddenly thought after seeing this news:

Can we follow the example of Tottenham fans and tell the players on the field the score of Tottenham?

Isn't Chelsea competing with Tottenham for the championship?

Then when they learned the news of Tottenham's comeback victory, their mentality would definitely be affected more or less!

Although I'm not sure how effective it will be, it doesn't take much effort anyway. You'll know if it works or not after you give it a try.

The number of Manchester City fans is not large, only about 3,000.

Surrounded by tens of thousands of Blues fans, he seemed inconspicuous!

But when they discussed it in front of 3,000 people and shouted it out together, it still aroused the attention of the whole audience.

"Tottenham won, Swansea lost!"

"Tottenham won, Swansea lost!"

"..."

As if worried that the other party could not hear clearly, the Manchester City fans even shouted three times in unison.

The Chelsea players on the field could not cover their ears, so they soon heard the shouts of the Manchester City fans.

When they learned that Tottenham had reversed the game, an indescribable sense of urgency immediately surged into their hearts, making the Chelsea players become irritable!
