Chapter 321 The pie is really falling from the sky

   Terry, who found that the situation was not good, immediately rushed over to block Messi.

   In the face of Terry, who is tall and big, Messi unexpectedly did not choose to be outstanding, but knocked the ball with his heel to Cristiano Ronaldo, who was closely behind him.

  Cristiano Ronaldo didn't have any pause. Before everyone could react, the ball was a furious shot.

"boom!"

  The ball was fast and fast, and flew directly to the upper right corner of the Chelsea goal.

   Goalkeeper Cudicini threw himself sideways and tried his best to get the ball, so he could only watch the ball fly into the goal he was guarding.

   "GOAL!"

   With the sharp cooperation of the counter-attack trio, Cristiano Ronaldo finally helped Crystal Palace lead Chelsea 1:0.

   "Crystal Palace's counterattack is really powerful. Whether it's Cristiano Ronaldo, Ribery or Messi, each is a player with fast speed, good technology and strong breakthrough ability. Chelsea's defenders are very difficult to defend."

   "It's no wonder that the Chinese people adopted the tactics of defensive counterattacks. With these three people attacking in front, it is completely enough, and there is no need to invest more troops."

   "Ancelotti is in big trouble now. Once this game loses to Crystal Palace again, then Chelsea's points gap will reach nine points. With the strength of Crystal Palace, it is almost impossible for Chelsea to catch up."

   Not only was the match commentator worried for Ancelotti, but Ancelotti himself also frowned.

  Without Kaka and Tony's Crystal Palace, the attack power has not only not decreased, but has become more difficult to defend, which is far beyond Ancelotti's expectations.

   However, things have come to this point, and he has no regrets to take. Now only bite the bullet and continue the onslaught, trying to get the score back as soon as possible.

   Ancelotti, who was very aware of his current situation, immediately went to the sidelines to cheer up his players. After the restart, Chelsea again launched a ferocious offensive.

   On the Crystal Palace side, they took the lead early in the first half of the game, allowing Chen Ran to continue to execute defensive counterattacks according to the established plan.

  Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Ribery's three-person counter-attack combination still pokes Chelsea's vitals from time to time. Although no more goals were scored, it also made Chelsea's formation not dare to push too hard, greatly reducing the pressure on Crystal Palace's backline.

   Until the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the score remained at 1:0 without any change.

   During the intermission, the favorable game situation for Crystal Palace also prevented Chen Ran from making any personnel adjustments.

   On the Chelsea side, the game was delayed and Ancelotti had to make personnel adjustments in advance.

   He replaced Makelele with Joe Cole, then let Joe Cole play the attacking midfielder, and Ballack stepped back to play the midfielder, continuing to strengthen Chelsea's attacking strength.

   At the beginning of the second half, Southgate, who saw Chelsea's substitution, immediately turned his head to Guardiola and Simeone sitting next to him and said proudly:

   "Look, that Ancelotti is in a hurry? I said that this guy will definitely fall into the trap dug for him by the boss."

   "Ahem, this Ancelotti has no choice. If we can't win this game, then Chelsea will basically bid farewell to the Premier League champions ahead of schedule. He will definitely fight."

   Guardiola was relatively objective and explained it for Ancelotti.

   "Actually, Chelsea is not without opportunities at all. After losing Vidic, the stability of our back line has declined. Chelsea are full of first-class stars, and someone may suddenly burst into extraordinary performance."

  Simeone is not as optimistic as Southgate, but rather worried.

   "E Diego, are you too pessimistic? In order to make up for the hidden dangers left by Vidic's absence, the boss also deliberately added a defensive midfielder. It's not easy for Chelsea to penetrate our defense."

   As the saying goes, a good spirit is not a bad spirit.

   Just when Guardiola and the three of them were still discussing whether Simeone was too cautious, Chelsea suddenly scored a goal.

  Left-back Ashley Cole broke through Maicon's defense and made a cross from the bottom. Drogba in the penalty area beat Pepe to score a goal.

  Cech flew and saved the ball. Just before Shevchenko wanted to make a shot, Thiago Silva stabbed the ball first.

   However, in a hurry, Thiago Silva failed to exert his full force. Although the ball was stabbed out of the penalty area of ​​Crystal Palace, it did not kick far, but just flew to Lampard's position.

   Such a good opportunity to hit the goal is of course impossible to miss for Lampard, who is good at long-range shots.

   Without any hesitation, Lampard rushed up to meet the ball with a volley.

   At the same time, Mascherano, who noticed Lampard's intention to hit the goal, slipped a shovel on the ground and wanted to fly to block the hole.

"boom!"

  Unfortunately, Mascherano failed to completely block Lampard's shot.

  The ball rubbed against Mascherano's outstretched calf and turned into a weird parabola.

  Cech, who had already moved in the direction of Lampard's original long-range shot, was caught off guard, but it was too late to turn around. In the end, he could only watch the ball fly from his side into the Crystal Palace's net.

   With Lampard's bizarre shot, Chelsea tied the score at 1:1.

   "hiss"

   Lampard just scored a goal, and Guardiola and Southgate on the sidelines turned their heads to look at Simeone next to him. This guy is really a crow's mouth.

   "It's none of my business, I'm just."

  Simeone had not finished speaking when Southgate covered his mouth.

   "Okay, Diego, we know it's none of your business. But until the game is over, don't talk anymore."

"I think so."

   Guardiola made a smack.

  Although Chelsea equalized the score, Guardiola and the three of them were not very worried.

   After following Chen Ran for the past few years, they have built super confidence in Chen Ran.

  In the hearts of the three of them, this temporary difficulty was nothing at all.

   On Chen Ran's side, for Lampard's somewhat lucky goal, he couldn't say anything other than shaking his head and sighing.

   However, the game is still to be won. So Chen Ran turned around and called Guardiola from the bench to his side.

   "Josep, now tell Kaka and Evra to warm up and replace Ribery and Pepe with them later."

   "The team's formation became 442, Ronaldo and Messi partnered as a double forward, Kaka was the attacking midfielder, Evra played the left back, and Chiellini replaced Pepe as the center back and was responsible for marking Drogba."

   "Okay, boss."

   Soon, Ancelotti's heart tightened when he saw Crystal Palace's substitution and adjustment. He turned his head and glanced at the Crystal Palace bench not far away. That Chinese man was about to launch a general attack.

   However, what surprised Ancelotti was that Crystal Palace still maintained the previous defensive counterattack tactics.

   However, the current three-person team of counterattacks has changed from Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, and Ribery to the more powerful Kaka, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi.

As soon as   Kaka came on the field, he gave Chelsea's back line a dismay.

  Cech held Drogba's header firmly in his arms, then got up quickly, and a strong hand tossed the ball to Yaya Toure.

  Yaya Toure used his strong body to push away Joe Cole who wanted to harass him, and then a through ball passed the ball to Kaka who was about to start.

   Seeing that Crystal Palace was about to launch a counterattack again, Chelsea's midfielder Ballack rushed up to intercept Kaka.

   Kaka, who had already sensed Barack's intentions, stabbed lightly in the direction the ball was rolling, and played a personal ball, leaving Barack behind.

   At this time, as Kaka's former teammate, Pirlo knew that Kaka must not be allowed to rush up with the ball, so no one could stop him.

  So, Pirlo rushed directly to Kaka, intending to fight a foul to stop Kaka from starting.

   What Pirlo didn't expect was that Kaka didn't choose to continue to break through with the ball this time, but took the lead and passed the ball out.

   Kaka's right foot straight outside the instep has just the right weight, not only bypassing Chelsea's left back Ashley Cole, but also just appearing on the line of Messi's high-speed forward insertion.

   So much so that Messi didn't need to excel, and at the moment of receiving the ball, he blocked Ashley Cole behind him and drove the ball straight to Chelsea's penalty area.

   Seeing that there was a huge gap in the left defense of his own side, Chelsea's central defender Terry had to run over from the middle to make up for the defense.

   Facing the tall and tall Terry, Messi flicked the ball and rushed towards the bottom line in a corner.

  As soon as Messi changed direction, Terry had to change direction.

   Seeing Messi making a move to pass, Terry hurried a sliding tackle to block Messi's passing route.

  Who knew that Messi was a fake facsimile button, he swayed Terry all of a sudden, and rushed straight to Chelsea's goal along the bottom line.

   found that Terry had been passed, and Chelsea's goalkeeper Cudicini quickly moved to the near post, completely blocking Messi's shooting angle.

   And in the middle, Ronaldo is sprinting from outside the penalty area to the penalty area at high speed, ready to grab a shot. At this time, another Chelsea defender Carvalho also noticed his grape

   fellow Ya, a stride blocked C Ronaldo's line in front of him.

   Outside Chelsea's penalty area, according to Chen Ran's tactical arrangement, Kaka, who was in charge of waiting for a long shot here, was also ready to receive Messi's inverted triangle pass.

   However, Ancelotti was well prepared for Chen Ran's tactic.

   Lampard appeared next to Kaka in a very timely manner, and would never leave Kaka a chance to kick the door.

   At this time, Messi, who was dribbling the ball along the baseline, took time to take a look at the middle, only to find that two of his teammates were surrounded by Chelsea players.

   Without any hesitation, Messi played a "overlord hard bow", directly raised his right foot, aimed at Chelsea goalkeeper Cudicini's legs and kicked it.

"boom!"

   At such a close distance, Cudicini had no time to react.

   Even though he found that the ball was flying between his legs, he wanted to close his legs to block the ball, but he was still a step behind.

  The ball first hit Cudicini's right calf and then deflected into Chelsea's net.

   "GOAL!"

   With Messi's unreasonable shot, Crystal Palace led Chelsea 2:1 again.

   "Refraction, refraction! After Chelsea tied the game with refraction, Crystal Palace also relied on refraction to take the lead again. It seems that both teams have good luck today."

   "Crystal Palace's counterattack ability is really too strong. After the Chinese replaced Ribery with Kaka, not only did the counterattack ability not decrease, but it became sharper."

   "Crystal Palace has been focusing on attacking football for the past two years, so many people forget that they actually started with defensive counter-attack tactics."

   "Those who questioned Crystal Palace's decision to let Ibrahimovic go can now shut up. Facts have proved that as long as the Chinese is there, Crystal Palace can win without anyone."

On the sidelines, Ancelotti, who saw Crystal Palace take the lead again, immediately called up from the bench the right back Belletti, who had just joined from Barcelona this season, with better assist ability, and then replaced Essien with him. , continue to strengthen the attack.

   Ancelotti is very clear that he has no retreat now, only attack, attack, attack again.

   As it turns out, God still takes good care of this guy Ancelotti.

   Not long after he replaced Belletti, Chiellini lost his foot when he landed while fighting for a header with Drogba.

   When Chen Ran saw the team doctor make a substitution gesture to the sidelines, he immediately swears.

  What is being afraid of, what is coming, and what is a house leak when it rains overnight, he now has a deep understanding of it.

   The key is that Pepe has been substituted, and Crystal Palace now has no central defender on the bench.

  Fortunately, Crystal Palace still has one substitution place left, so they will not be forced to play one less person as before.

   Without time to hesitate, Chen Ran immediately turned around and called Guardiola to his side.

   "Josep, you immediately tell Cesc Fabregas to warm up. After he comes on, he will play the midfielder, and then let Mascherano play the central defender."

   "Tell Thiago Silva again, he will now mark Drogba, and Mascherano will be in charge of Shevchenko."

   "Boss, can Thiago Silva's physical condition be able to withstand Drogba? Mascherano might have a bit of a hard time staring at Shevchenko, right?"

   For Chen Ran's arrangement, Guardiola couldn't help but be a little worried.

   "Do you have a better way now? If not, don't talk nonsense, just do as I say!"

  Chen Ran glared at Guardiola angrily. Can he not know what he said?

   Just in the face of the current situation, I can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

   "Oh, okay, I see."

   Seeing that Chen Ran's face was not good, Guardiola quickly flashed his wit.

   On the Chelsea side, Ancelotti was overjoyed to see that the pie really fell from the sky.

   This guy immediately flushed red, walked to the sidelines with a look of excitement, and shouted for the Chelsea players to press the attack.
