The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 1426
1426 Still Lost to a Mistake
One to zero!
In the thirty-ninth minute of the first half, Chelsea broke through Leeds United’s goal and took the lead!
The Chelsea fans howled excitedly as if they had won the championship.
The atmosphere was so intense that the Chelsea players had gone crazy.
On the sidelines, Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti was so excited that he jumped on the back of assistant coach Paul Clement and waved his fist excitedly.
At this moment Carlo Ancelotti suddenly looked twenty or thirty years younger.
The Chelsea men celebrated wildly, while the Leeds United man was secretly saddened.
Who is to blame for this goal?
No one blamed, only Didier Drogba for being so weird!
Who would have thought that this fierce and valiant fellow would have such a delicate side? Everyone was deceived by this guy’s performance image.
Of course, Didier’s Roja also evolved.
This guy was a real rough guy before, stopping and dribbling was unbearable. However, this fellow is much better now, and can still have this kind of performance, it has to be said that Didier Drogba is very much improved.
Now that Didier Drogba is more comprehensive, this guy will be even more terrifying.
Zhong Cheng stared at Didier Drogba. This fellow truly had the feeling of an African magical beast now. This fellow had grown up. In the future, this fellow would be one of the biggest enemies of Leeds United.
Didier Drogba was really impressive today.
Zhong Cheng turned his head to look at the big screen. It was now six or seven minutes before the end of the first half. This was still the result of injury time.
There’s not much time left for Leeds United to level the score!
Zhong Chengshi immediately reminded the Leeds United players to hurry up and attack, trying to level the score before the end of the first half. Otherwise, Leeds United would have been even more fortunate in the second half.
The Leeds United players were also a bit unconvinced. Why did they fall behind?
Overall, they threatened the goal more in the first half. Why did the Chelsea team lead in the end?
When the Leeds United players saw Zhong Cheng’s gesture, they immediately attacked crazily in an attempt to score a goal in the first half.
With a bang, Patrick Aver, a midfielder, passed the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo in front of him with a long, diagonal pass.
Cristiano Ronaldo immediately jumped up and blocked the ball against Mesut Özil in the middle. Mesut Özil did not stop the ball but instead took advantage of the situation to sweep the ball to the left of the Chelsea box rib position.
Gareth Bale rushed up and chased after the football.
“Beautiful crossover, Mesut Özil has delivered a wonderful pass, opportunity, Gareth Bale opportunity!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
Petr Cech quickly moved sideways in front of the goal, blocking Gareth Bale’s shot.
Unexpectedly, Gareth Bale swung his leg as a fake and suddenly crossed the ball in the middle.
Football quickly rolled towards Levandovsky and Edison Cavani in the middle and the faces of the Chelsea fans changed drastically.
“Aiya! What a pity! Lewandowski and Edison Cavani are both a little too anxious. It’s such a pity that this ball actually passed. It’s such a pity!” Eddie Gray doesn’t know what to say.
Yes, this is a really good opportunity.
If the two of them were to reach the foot point, they would face the big empty door. With a light stretch of their legs, they would be able to push the football into the empty door.
Unfortunately, the two of them ran past, and the football rolled behind them, directly rolling out of the other side of the sideline.
Cristiano Ronaldo rushed forward but still failed to save the football.
The Leeds United fans shook their heads in pity. What a good opportunity. Leeds had actually missed it. This was truly terrible.
Zhong Cheng also found it inconceivable. How could there be such a mistake?
The route from Gareth Bale on the side is not problematic and should be the best route. Better than the one Levandovsky and Edison Cavani were desperately trying to grab.
However, Levandovsky and Edison Cavani both rushed to the same line.
Leeds United did not have a sense of hierarchy in the middle of the line-up, and there was a bit of a problem with their selection, which led them to miss out on such a good opportunity.
Levandovsky and Edison Cavani made a slight mistake in this goal.
The two of them shouldn’t be snatching a line together. They should make Leeds United’s attack more three-dimensional.
Unfortunately, this was truly a great pity.
Zhong Cheng came to the sidelines to remind Levandovsky and Edison Cavani to have more communication between them and not to kick himself.
Levandovsky and Edison Cavani nodded slightly to show that they understood.
Chelsea are not in a hurry to get the ball. They are in control of the football in the back and they want to keep the lead until the end of the midfield. At this time, they weren’t in a hurry, they were just wasting time.
In fact, it could be said that they were attracting Leeds United players, wanting to attract Leeds United players out. Then the rear of Leeds United was empty, and they could take advantage of it.
The Leeds United fans were very anxious. They immediately roared wildly and cheered for the Leeds United players. He was also cursing the damned Chelsea man like crazy. The guy Chelsea were facing was really trash. It was such a waste of time.
The Leeds United players attacked and pounced on the Chelsea players.
The Chelsea players are not attacking immediately but are avoiding Leeds United. Pass the football down quickly and let the Leeds United players get closer, preferably in a disjointed spot.
On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng naturally saw through the Chelsea man’s intentions.
Zhong Chengshi immediately shouted loudly, reminding the Leeds United players not to be too anxious. Although we need goals, we don’t have to pay the price for conceding. The first half was one goal behind, and the second half could still be played, but if it was two goals behind, the second half would be dangerous.
Levandovsky rushed madly towards John Terry, who was holding the ball.
John Terry turned around with a pull and quickly passed the ball back to goalkeeper Peter Cech. Seeing Levandovsky rush forward, Peter Cech quickly tilted the ball to the side, where Ashley Cole received the ball.
Ashley Cole pushed the ball forward and it rolled under Malouda’s feet.
Malouda had just taken the ball when the Leeds United full-back rushed over. He was not in a hurry but immediately turned around and passed the ball back to the full-back.
Ink, that’s how Chelsea spend their time.
Kyle Walker was still young and anxious. He rushed out and lunged madly at Ashley Cole, who was holding the ball, ignoring Malouda’s defence.
Ashley Cole saw an opportunity, but he didn’t act immediately. Instead, it attracted Kyle Walker to continue putting it on. Just as Kyle Walker was about to arrive in front of him, he suddenly passed the football directly to Malouda, who was behind Kyle Walker.
Kyle Walker was shocked, “Damn it, I was fooled!”
Yes, Kyle Walker had reacted. He was a little rash. He gave the other party an opportunity to take advantage of it. This was truly dangerous.
On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng frowned. This time, he was about to collapse.
Because Leeds United’s formation has been pulled apart by Chelsea, a bit scattered. The defensive line is not compact, the gap is relatively large. More importantly, the Chelsea man waited for such a counterattack, and his attacker suddenly came closer.
Seeing the opportunity come, they were pushing forward in a swarm. In that period of time, their offensive numbers were even greater than Leeds United’s defensive numbers.
All Leeds United fans exclaimed, “Danger!”
It’s really dangerous, Leeds United’s defensive line is empty and Chelsea’s attack is coming.
This should be the last attack in the first half. If Chelsea really scored, it would be a very, very bad thing for Leeds United, no less than a thunderclap.
Malouda, who was on the winger’s side, picked up the ball and rushed towards Leeds United’s penalty area with a ferocious momentum.
Zhong Cheng was on the sidelines reminding the Leeds United players not to panic. It is not impossible to defend against more with less, as long as the Leeds United players do not mess up, the Chelsea man will not be able to break Leeds United’s goal so easily.
However, the Leeds United players are a little bit panicked right now.
The first half was coming to an end, but the Chelsea man had such a good opportunity to attack and the pressure on the Leeds United players could be imagined.
Leeds United centre-back David Louis went forward to intercept Malouda.
Malouda did not have any ink with David Louis at all. Instead, the ball was suddenly sent back to the front of the restricted area by the inverted triangle. Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard rushed up and headed for football.
The hearts of the Leeds United players trembled. This fellow had a very beautiful long-range shot. He definitely couldn’t be allowed to shoot long-range, at least he couldn’t be allowed to shoot long-range comfortably.
Compani had no other choice but to charge out and charge madly towards Frank Lampard, who was prepared to use his body to block the football.
David Louis and Patrick Aver, on the edge of the road, moved quickly toward the center and outward. This was meant to create an offside trap and force Frank Lampard to shoot long shots instead of passing.
If that was the case, then at least Compani would be able to help them in the middle.
However, if the opponent were to pass the ball behind Kompani, he would really have to go to the meeting on his own. Therefore, they were heading towards the middle while heading outwards.
But at this moment, Frank Lampard suddenly swung his leg and pushed the football into the restricted area. The football rolled directly at Drogba’s feet.
David Louis and Patrick Aver immediately raised their hands to signal that Drogba was offside.
But referee Martin Atkinson ignored it, and Drogba’s reputation stopped as he shot the ball into Leeds United’s goal from close range.
At the same time, Martin Atkinson also blew the whistle at the end of the first half.
Chelsea widened their lead 2-0 at the end of the first half.
