The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 553
553 A Soccer Game That Has Gone off Course
Du!
With a whistle, the second half of the match between the two sides began.
In midfield, there was no substitution between the two sides, continuing the line-up that lasted until the end of the first half. After a period of recuperation, the physical fitness of the players from both sides had returned. In the second half of the match, there was a fierce competition.
However, the direction of the battle seemed to be a little off.
The players on both sides put more energy into the battle for the midfield. They were often thrown backwards in the midfield battle. The players on both sides moved more and more, and players often fell to the ground for treatment.
At this moment, midfielder Javier Mascherano suddenly pulled the ball away from Drogba’s shovel. However, before he could stand firmly, he was knocked out and fell on the court.
“Butcher, you damn butcher, you are murder. This should be a red card, a red card action. Send him down, send him down!” The Leeds United fans at the scene shouted crazily, cursing loudly, “Butcher, you damn butcher, you are murder!”
On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng was also very dissatisfied. He shouted loudly, “This action is a bit too much. This is too dangerous. This should be a red card. The red card will punish him!”
Zhong Cheng was even more worried about Mascherano’s condition. If he was injured, it would be very dangerous.
Sure enough, Mascherano fell to the ground with a painful expression. It seemed that he could not hold on any longer.
Having been in this business for so long, Zhong Cheng could naturally tell that Mascherano was not pretending this time. Instead, he was in great pain. It seemed that the situation was very serious.
Leeds United’s team doctor, Mark Piercy, rushed forward and examined it carefully. After checking for a while, Mark Piercy immediately turned to Zhong Cheng and indicated that Mascherano could not hold on.
“Holy shit!” Zhong Cheng cursed angrily, then turned around and signaled for Yaya Touré to warm up and prepare to go on the bench.
On the pitch, the referee only gave the perpetrator Salomon Kalou a yellow card.
This caused the Leeds United players and fans to be very dissatisfied. They were loudly attacking the referee of this match, especially the fans. They were about to greet the referee’s ancestor, the eighteen generations.
The situation on the court was also out of control, and the referee had no choice but to pull out a second yellow card to maintain the situation. The referee gave the second yellow card to Gary Cahill, who was especially excited. Gary Cahill was very angry and in a very bad mood.
If not for Compani, Gary Cahill would have been sent off with another yellow card, two yellow cards and one red card.
This scene was barely under the control of the referee’s yellow card, but the anger of the Leeds United players had already risen. The referee was also worried when he saw this. This match seemed to be about to collapse.
After the game started again, the Leeds United players acted even more aggressively. They were extremely ferocious. How could they be like a group of players? They were even more like a group of butchers.
The Chelsea players were also very tough, and they were all enraged. Their movements also became bigger. Immediately, the stadium was filled with sudden changes in the wind and clouds. People were thrown upside down. It was simply an ancient battlefield. The two sides were fighting each other head-on.
The referee’s eyebrows furrowed. This match is going to be over.
Dududududu, the pitch was full of his whistles. The match was going on intermittently. The team doctors had entered the pitch more and more often. The fans on both sides were furious. Was it right to go crazy during the match? At the same time, they also cursed the referee. It was really difficult for the referee to do it today.
At this moment, the referee showed a yellow card to Chelsea center Didier Drogba, who had just scored a ferocious tackle on Yaya Touré, who had just been substituted by Leeds United. Yaya Touré ‘s expression was also very painful, and his expression was very ugly.
Zhong Cheng’s brows furrowed, and the anger in his heart almost burned his entire body.
Inside the stadium, Mark Piercy helplessly turned around again and made a change to Zhong Cheng. Yaya Touré couldn’t hold on any longer. Less than ten minutes into Yaya Touré ‘s substitute appearance, the Chelsea man had already ruthlessly beaten him.
Leeds United fans and players were furious as they cursed at Chelsea’s trash players. The anger in their hearts was so great that many people shouted out, “Fuck off, fuck off, fuck off, fuck off, fuck off the damned Chelsea man.”
Zhong Cheng had no choice but to change people. He had used up all of today’s substitution spots and replaced Yaya Touré with Alexander Song. Zhong Cheng’s mood was really terrible.
Zhong Cheng turned to Mark Piercy and asked, “Mark, how are the two of them? Is their situation serious?”
Mark Piercy shook his head and said, “The situation is not particularly serious. Mascherano can rest for a week or two at most, but Yaya Touré ‘s injuries seem to be lighter. He just can’t continue to play today. He should be fully recovered after four or five days of rest!”
Luckily, both of them weren’t seriously injured. If the two of them were seriously injured again, it would really add insult to injury.
At this moment, Zhong Chengzhen was too angry, these Chelsea guys were too inhuman.
And that damn referee, such a vicious move is actually just a yellow card move. Don’t you have a red card?
Zhong Cheng also signaled for the Leeds United players to be bigger.
On the pitch, the Leeds United players moved even bigger and more ferociously. The referee’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this. Zhong Cheng, this fellow, was commanding his army!
At this moment, after Drogba took the ball, Alexander Song slid over from a distance and threw Drogba to the ground.
Drogba rolled his feet on the turf in pain.
The Chelsea fans exploded, cursing Leeds United players, throwing hard objects into the field and signaling the referee to send Alexander Song off with a red card.
At this point, they have selectively forgotten what their Chelsea players did before. Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard were much more ruthless than that, but they were only booked. Alexander Song, how could this be a red card?
To tell the truth, the referee really wanted to show a red card to warn the players on both sides. But now it was the Leeds players who fouled and he didn’t dare to play anymore. If he showed a red card, it was obvious that there were different standards of punishment. Not only would he receive a lot of criticism after the match, he would also be investigated and even cause more serious consequences.
The referee really regretted it. He should have played the red card at the beginning, and this match would not have turned out like this.
No matter how angry he was, he still had to endure it.
Yellow card, the referee only wanted to foul Alexander Song to show a yellow card.
This time, the referee made the fans on both sides unhappy.
The referee sternly warned the players on both sides to play well and not cause any trouble!
However, it was clear that the match had gone out of control. The players on both sides were getting angry and couldn’t hold on any longer.
Michael Ballack couldn’t hold back from shoveling Watkin from behind and shovelled Watkin over. All of the Leeds United players screamed in horror. This action was truly too vicious. This was simply murder.
After making this move, Michael Ballack regretted it. Just now, his action was a little brainless, which was why he made a big mistake. He immediately stood up and walked towards Hua Jin, wanting to apologize to Hua Jin. However, before he could take two steps out, he was directly punished by the referee’s red card.
Finally, he showed a red card. If he didn’t show a red card, the match would be over completely.
At this time, the players from both sides were gathered together, and they seemed to want to fight. The referee and linesman immediately rushed over, separating the players from each other. Only then did the situation not develop further and stabilize the situation slightly.
Hua Jin wasn’t seriously injured, which reduced the smell of gunpowder on both sides. If Hua Jin was seriously injured or reimbursed this time, this scene would definitely explode.
The referee heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, God was here and didn’t let things go to the worst.
Michael Ballack was sent off and José Mourinho immediately switched players. He used Michael Essien to replace Arjen Robben in the front court. The formation had changed to 4-3-2. There was no other way. At this time, José Mourinho still want to maintain the full configuration of the three midfielders.
The match started again. The smell of gunpowder between the two sides was still very strong. Fouls appeared endlessly. The match was also intermittent. This match made people very angry.
Zhong Cheng frowned as he stood at the side of the arena. He was a little scared. But he’s not afraid of losing, he’s afraid of his players getting hurt in this game. If they hurt a few more players, what about their Leeds United game?
Zhong Cheng came to the sidelines to signal the Leeds United players to protect themselves and not get injured in this match. However, the players of Leeds United were furious, and their movements were still very big.
The Chelsea side also refused to accept it, and they fought fiercely. At this point in the game, it seemed to have changed. The players on both sides were more focused on fighting for the midfield than on winning the damn game.
Of course, they are also keen to score goals, but it is difficult to get past midfield.
At this moment, the players on both sides were also a little afraid of getting injured. Injuries were their natural enemies. If they were to start over again, they would most likely have to reimburse their careers. Therefore, although their actions were very big, they were very careful to protect themselves. They would not joke about their careers.
At this point in the match, it was extremely dull. The fans on both sides of the field were cursing crazily. It seemed that their minds were no longer focused on the match. They were cursing crazily and fighting.
Yes, even some of the more radical fans wanted to rush over and knock on the door.
However, the security personnel were standing very tightly and did not give these people who wanted to cause trouble a chance.
Zhong Cheng felt uncomfortable in his heart. This football match had actually turned out like this. This was truly the sadness of football matches. The referee’s level was too low. This kind of game is not right, football should still be returned to football itself.
The players on both sides were tired from playing in the game, and none of them had any intention of attacking.
By the time the match was over, it was almost time for it to be over.
Sure enough, not long after, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the match. He didn’t even give him any time to recover from his injuries. In the end, the two sides were tied 0-0 in this match!
