Chapter 90

On the 15th, "The Sun" revealed in the newspaper that Chelsea had locked up Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Luka Modric for 20 million pounds.

Also on this day, in Croatian newspapers, a Dinamo Zagreb club executive revealed last night that the team had reached an agreement with Chelsea, and Modric will join Chelsea soon.

After seeing the news, Endrit thought he would drive to the airport to pick him up soon, but Mourinho regretted that Croatia did not release him so early.

"Their team only has Modric who can take the top spot. If he is released now, their ranking will drop a lot this season, but they are short of money." Mourinho paused and said with regret: "We have tried our best. Negotiations were held, but Dinamo Zagreb would rather keep Modric until April for a smaller transfer fee."

"Okay," Endritt nodded a little regretfully, "But that's okay, anyway. There are only more than two months left."

After leaving Mourinho's office, Endrit packed his things and prepared to go home. When he walked to the parking lot, he picked up an unread newspaper and walked away. Look down and take a few glances.

"The Gunners initiate a rare long-term contract for Fabregas?" Endritt read the title and recalled Cesc Fabregas. The latter is a midfielder, and Chelsea are not short of midfielders.

Lampard was out injured for nearly five weeks, and during those five weeks Ballack captained the team to victory.

Before Lampard returned, some outside media believed that the two men's playing styles were too similar and they might not be able to coexist.

But what about the reality? Facts have proved that the media is really blind this time.

In the match against Liverpool, two well-known and powerful midfielders worked together, but failed to assist or score any goals throughout the game - although there were various reasons for this, But there is no way to refute that the cooperation between the two in this game was not as good as expected.

After this game, some fans even asked directly on the forum: Should the team sell Lampard or Ballack now?

Mourinho, who can decide whether these two people stay or go, is very dissatisfied with the views of the media and some fans: Yes, the positions of these two people do overlap a bit, but it is not that they cannot work together. And the most important thing is, given their current situation of extreme shortage of personnel, Chelsea still sell people?

Does Chelsea lack the money to support players? No matter who is sold, what if the remaining player is injured and unable to play? Who will compete then? Are these bad-mouthed media or big-hearted fans?

Besides, poor coordination can be improved. After training in the past few days, Lampard and Ballack's coordination has become much better than before. And Ballack also showed great enthusiasm for partnering with Lampard.

In the interview, Ballack repeatedly emphasized to the reporters who provoked the issue that he would form the strongest midfield combination with Lampard. "Frank is an excellent player and my vice-captain. I need him. I and everyone There is no problem with people's cooperation. Will I have problems with cooperation with an excellent player? Please put your questions under the bed and look forward to our cooperation."

If we talk about the cooperation between Lampard and Ballack now . The media and some arrogant fans are clamoring that they are not favored. The problem of overlapping positions between Ashley Cole and Bridge, who has recovered from his injuries and will be able to play in the next game, is more difficult to deal with.

First of all, excluding Ashley's personal moral issues, with his strength, it is not a problem at all to start the next game directly after recovering from injury. But this involves another player: England international left-back Bridge, like Ashley.

Bridge was suppressed by Ashley when he was in the national team, and he was forced to be a substitute at Chelsea because of Ashley's presence. Bridge was able to start during Ashley's injury. In the recent semi-final match against Everton, Bridge performed very well and received praise from the media after the game.

The "Daily Mail" spoke for Bridge in the newspaper, saying that the 27-year-old defender has always been Chelsea's quietest player, but now he can't help it → Bridge made a request to Mourinho, hoping that He will continue to start the game until he has no major problems. If not, he will leave Chelsea in the summer.

Mourinho did not have much emotion about this matter. After Bridge made this request to him, he only said two sentences: "If you want to leave, then I will not keep you. If you want to stay Then you should train hard and improve your strength."

But Bridge, who had been suppressed by Ashley, was directly dazzled by the news that Ashley would return to start the next game, and the negative emotions that had accumulated for a long time made him listen. After Coach Mourinho's first words, he stood up impulsively and rushed out of the office.

From that day on, Bridge became the second player on this team, no, the first player to skip training without completing training.

Endrit tried to get close to Bridge and explained, telling him that as long as you perform well enough, coach Mourinho will use you. But Bridge didn't want to pay attention to Endrit at all. Instead of saying bad words to Endrit, he just glared at Endrit. This was the result of Bridge's efforts to suppress himself.

"Ronaldo broke the rules and was heavily fined by Ferguson?!"

After reading the newspaper section about Arsenal's efforts to retain Ronaldinho on a long-term contract, Endritt turned the page and saw a new headline at a glance. One made him suspect that he had read it wrong. news headlines.

"Have you been severely punished by your coach?" The first thing Endritt did after driving home was to call Ronaldinho, "You have directly hit Coach Ferguson's gun."

Manchester United has been in poor condition recently. After a loss and a drop in points, Arsenal snatched the second place. Then Ferguson made up his mind to rectify the team's style. Restricting the use of mobile phones in the club is the latest team rule announced by Ferguson.

Just yesterday, Ronaldinho sent four text messages on his mobile phone during training, and was directly fined 8,000 pounds by Ferguson.

"I don't want to talk." Ronaldinho's feeble voice rang on the other end of the phone, "I'm very sad, Ritter, coach, how could he treat me like this? It doesn't matter whether it's money or not, I just sent four text messages. "

You're just trying to scare the monkeys," Endrit couldn't help but laugh, "I guess even Coach Ferguson didn't expect someone to jump out so quickly, and you are the most famous and powerful coach in the team. If you are directly punished heavily, won't other players know that Coach Ferguson is really trying to improve the discipline of your team this time? "

"But, Ritter..."

Endrit put his hand on his eyebrows and interrupted. Xiao Luo's words, "Let's not talk about these things for now, they are not important. The main reason I called here is to ask who you are texting? Girlfriend? No wonder you are not in good condition recently."

"I, I'm not..."

"If you don't want Coach Ferguson to impose more team rules, just give me a good training! When you get older, you won't find friends to play with, right?"

Xiao Luo was silent for a second. Just now, he was lying on the sofa with a look of dejection. Now He just sat up on the ground, and every strand of his hair was telling his anger, "You called me just to say this, right?"

That day, when Endrit drove out to pick up Man, Xiao Luo said very angrily: If you are afraid that I will break your clean sheet record, just give me good training!

Now, Endrit finally found the opportunity to return this sentence.

"Hahahahaha..."

Endrit didn't answer, just held the phone and laughed. Xiao Luo rolled his eyes, very annoyed, "What do you mean? I am your idol!"

"There is a saying in our hometown, a crow does not think a pig is black."

"What do you mean?!" Xiao Luo was confused, " And there are black pigs? Aren't all pigs white? "

"Of course there are black pigs. Our, um...the native pigs in China are black pigs, and they taste better."

"Have you ever tasted them ? ? "Does it really taste better?"

"Of course, but it shouldn't be available in England. When we have the opportunity... Well, we should go to the Olympics this summer, and we can treat you to it then..." Endrit paused. , took a deep breath, "You kid, change the subject for me, right?"

...

On February 16, Chelsea will usher in the top 16 of the FA Cup. They will face the English League One team Harders at Stamford Bridge. field.

In this game, Ashley Cole officially returned, but Bridge, whose recent training attitude has not been correct enough, was not even included in the team's substitute list. He disappeared directly from the team list.

The Daily Mail, which spoke for Bridge not long ago and had high hopes for Bridge, did not mention Bridge at all after the game. Instead, it used a lot of pen and ink to discuss Lampard and Ballack. and Ashley.

[Barack has repeatedly emphasized in previous interviews that he and Lampard would be the best midfield partner, but before today's game, people did not believe this statement. Some extreme fans even believed that the team should play in Lampard. Choose between Padre and Barak. But in today's game, the cooperation between Ballack and Lampard produced a very magical chemical reaction. In the 17th and 60th minutes after the game started, Lampard successfully sent the football into the goal. Desfield's goal. 】

【Forward Kalou's first game after returning from the African Cup, he successfully scored in the 70th minute after the opening! ]

[Ashley, who returned from injury, actively ran in his first game back and completed two difficult blocks on the opposing players. 】

As for Bridge? Sorry, what is that?

The reason why the "Daily Mail" expressed sympathy for Bridge in the newspaper is because Bridge has performed well on the court recently. The "Daily Mail" believes that Bridge can compete with Ashley for position. Bridge could put Mourinho in a difficult position.

But when the "Daily Mail" discovered that Bridge could no longer appear on stage and was not even on the substitute list, they completely threw away their sympathy from the previous few days.

What? Did they write the report? Oh, the person who wrote that report was an intern, and he has just been fired~

Chelsea 3:0 Huddersfield, a clean and tidy end to the FA Cup round of 16 and promotion, I thought I would be criticized by reporters after the game Bridge, who appeared at Stamford Bridge for the interview, returned home with a disappointed look on his face and received a call from his agent.

The agent told him that the Liverpool team, which had previously wanted to contact Chelsea to get Bridge, had recently given up the idea because they wanted to introduce younger defenders.

"What did you say?" Bridge suddenly stood up, "This is impossible! My performance..."

"What is your performance? Let's not talk about the team's training. How many times have you been photographed by the media in recent times? Didn't I tell you to calm down during this time? Do you think you are like Rooney? Do you think you can be praised by the media with your eyes closed when the news of prostitution is everywhere like him? He can score goals on the court, what about you?"

Bridge squeezed the phone hard, his eyes slightly red with anger.

"Okay, during this period you should train hard first and try to gain the trust of coach Mourinho before playing the game. Without Liverpool, there would still be Manchester City..."

"I want to go to Liverpool..."

"You have chosen it now?"

The agent's words caused Brees to fall silent again. After hanging up the phone, he sat blankly on the sofa alone, his vision gradually blurring.

At this point in time, Manchester City was almost overwhelmed by fellow city rivals Manchester United. This summer Berbatov was determined to move to the giant Manchester United. Manchester City offered 35 million pounds to sign Berbatov. After Tottenham happily agreed, they wanted to sign with Manchester City but could not find Berbatov. Mrs. Tuo.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Berbatov had already flown to Manchester United. Coach Ferguson personally picked him up from the plane for a medical examination, and finally re-quoted Tottenham at 30.75 million pounds. Prior to this, Manchester United's offer for Berbatov had always been 22 million pounds.

If it weren't for Berbatov's poor form and poor performance in the following seasons, Tottenham would have become mortal enemies with Manchester United.

"Don't want to be teammates with Berbatov?" Mourinho raised his head from a pile of documents and glanced at Endrit, "What's the reason?"

"Because I think his playing style is a bit similar to Kalu's," Endrit gave his own reason, "I'm a little worried that if he transfers, he will encounter the same dilemma as Brees and Ashley."

Mourinho gave a slight hum to indicate that he understood.

"Coach?" Endritt approached Mourinho. "When I called Berbatov before, he didn't seem to be very optimistic about our Chelsea. Coach, you also said before that you don't need to talk to him about a transfer. This matter, but I saw in the newspaper that you quoted 20 million pounds for Tottenham..."

"Help raise the price," Mourinho smiled calmly, "We don't want it. If other teams want it, help raise the price. The transfer fee is limited. If you buy this, you can't buy anyone else."

"Huh?"

Mourinho was not impatient, nor did he say that Endritt was worrying. "I'm a little busy now. I'll give it to you when I have time. Let’s talk about this. The transfer market is not as simple as you think. It is not the kind where all players are clearly priced and traded in the transfer market. The national football federations also stipulate that they cannot be traded during the transfer period. We contacted the players privately before it even started, but do you think any team has complied with this rule? "

"Okay," Mourinho waved his hand, "You go ahead and play."

He stood up and was about to leave . Derit stopped and said, "Going to play?"

"What, do you want to go back to training?" Mourinho had already lowered his head and started busy with his own business. "Aren't you going to leave directly?"

Endrit Putting his hands in his pockets, he slowly raised his chin, "Yeah, I'm just going to play~"

Mourinho raised his head and stared at Endrit with an expressionless expression, and Endrit burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha Coach, was that a provocation just now? Coach, you are deliberately provoking me..."

"Go away!" Mourinho waved his hand in annoyance, "Go and play!"

Endrit smiled. After leaving Coach Mourinho's office, he received a text message from the latter not long after he walked out.

[You'd better ensure that your current smart state can continue forever. I think even you don't want to lose your No. 1 jersey, right? ]

Endrit stopped and lowered his head and quickly replied to the text message: [Yes, yes, coach! I will definitely work hard not to disappoint you! 】

After putting down the phone, Endrit only had one sentence lingering in his mind: If the provocation method fails, will he change the threat? Why does the coach's set of procedures seem like he is trying to pull himself off?

...

The day after the FA Cup ended, Bridge came to the team early to start training when other players began to take vacation.

In the next few days, Bridge trained like crazy to make up for the missed training, which was even more exaggerated than Endrit at the time.

But other team members did not feel anxious because of Bridge's crazy training. Ballack even talked to Bridge and told him not to train for such a long time.

"You have been lazy for so long. If you are too tired from training all at once, you are very likely to get injured." Barak reached out and patted Bridge on the shoulder, "Let's stop here today."

Bridge lowered his head and responded. But he still trained like crazy the next day. His teammates knew what he wanted, so they didn't try to persuade him.

Finally, the time came to February 20th.

Chelsea will face Greek team Olympiakos in the Champions League round of 16.

Before the game, Mourinho showed the players the starting list and substitute list for the next day's game.

Goalkeeper: 1-

Endrit Defender : 35-Beletti, 6-Carvalho, 33-Alex, 3-Ashley

Midfielder: 5-Essien, 4-Makelele, 13-Barack

Forwards: 15-Malouda, 11-Drogba, 10-Cole

Substitute list: 23-Cudicini, 8-Lampard, 12-Mikel, 21-Kalou, 24-Wright- Phillips, 39-Anelka

As soon as Mourinho posted the Champions League roster, Bridge, who had been training hard for three days, was stunned. He knows that he will definitely not be put on the starting list by coach Mourinho, but now, can he not even be put on the substitute list?

No, coach Mourinho didn't put him on the substitute list during the last game!

Bridge covered his face with his hands, the regret in his heart was about to turn into a sea and swallow him directly.

Maybe before playing the game, he vaguely understood that he was wrong. He remembered that when he skipped training and went to the pub to play, his heart could not calm down because he knew it was wrong, but at that time he couldn't stop at all. Come down.

He knew in his heart that it was wrong, but he kept saying that the coach was wrong and drank a lot of beer.

It only takes a few hours to destroy his image in the eyes of coach Mourinho, but if he wants to make coach Mourinho trust him again and put him back on the team's substitute list, I'm afraid he needs to do it again. Been working hard for a long time.

Bridge was a little uncomfortable when he saw the substitute list and was a little uncomfortable that he was not on the substitute list. Lampard was a little uncomfortable when he saw the substitute list and was actually on the substitute list. He scored twice in the last game! Now in the Champions League, why did the coach put him on the bench? Does this mean you don't believe him?

Lampard had ten thousand words in his mind that he wanted to say in an instant, and he immediately followed Mourinho as soon as he left the dressing room.

"What's wrong?" Mourinho stopped, turned his head to look at Lampard, frowned, "Do you have any questions?"

"Coach," Lampard pursed his dry lips, "Tomorrow "The Champions League game, why did I..."

"Try tactics," Mourinho interrupted Lampard directly, "You start the next game and Ballack is the substitute. It has nothing to do with the Champions League or not. Do you understand?

" , I’ve finished explaining, do you have any questions?”

Lampard actually still doesn’t understand why coach Mourinho, who had always asked him to cooperate with Ballack, now lets the two start separately, but when Mourinho When Coach Rinho frowned and asked again, he nodded quickly to show that he understood, "I understand coach, I don't have any other questions."

Returning to the locker room again, seeing the substitute list, Lampard Still couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong? Didn't you ask?" Endrit asked, "Didn't the coach say anything?"

Lampard couldn't help but sigh again, "It's about team tactics."

"What tactics? We Do you want to change it again? "

Lampard shook his head, "I don't know, the coach didn't say it."

Endrit said quietly, "I'll ask you when I go back.

" The coach probably didn't think about it himself. He didn't even arrange for us to train specifically." Lampard didn't have any expectations for Endritt's ideas. "I guess it will be arranged after the game."

Early the next morning, um. De Liter pulled Lampa aside and talked about Coach Mourinho's thoughts.

"You two are both good and strong, but before, before you two were injured, the coach asked you to rotate with each other. Ballack was not happy, and you were not happy. Ballack was absent because of his ankle. You have been starting the game for four months, and your performance has made the coach feel that this team must not be without you."

Lampard blinked, "Is that what the coach said?"

"What the coach said is even more disgusting than this. ," Endritt waved his hands with a look of disgust, "He was too embarrassed to say it, but I was a little embarrassed to relay it~"

Lampard wanted to say something else, but Endritt had already quickly moved on to the next topic, "And During the time when you were injured, both the media and the fans spoke highly of the captain. He can lead the team to victory just like you on the court. "

This is simply a sweet burden. The coach doesn't want it!" Let the two of you rotate with each other again like before, but before that, he wants to determine your two playing styles through actual combat," Endrit couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, " Then, think of a way to make the two of you cooperate completely, and coach Mourinho has already thought of a way. "

After the 3:0 end of the last game, the media started to brag about the cooperation between Lampard and Ballack. Why? ? Because Lampard scored two goals. But the two goals Lampard scored were entirely based on his personal ability and had nothing to do with Ballack. Even if there was no Ballack standing on the court at the time, Lampard could have scored the goal.

Both of them are very good and powerful, but the effect of combining them together is not very good from the beginning. Not only can 1+1 not be greater than 2, but it is directly less than 1.

Chelsea fans watch the cooperation between these two people just like the cooperation between Lampard and Gerrard of the national team.

Then why can't we cooperate? Because these three people are all midfield leaders, they are all used to a style of play in which they lead and direct independently in the middle. When these two people want to cooperate, it is equivalent to one body having two brains at the same time. Who should be listened to and who should not be listened to?

These two are now young, injury-free players at the peak of their careers. Who is willing to be directly overwhelmed by the other?

And if this problem is not resolved for a long time, then it will not only be the media and some fans who feel that one of them should leave Chelsea.

"Really?" Lampard was very surprised, "What is the solution?"

Endrit covered his face and sighed again, "Listen to me."

"Huh?" Lampard was a little confused, "Listen. Do you want to listen?"

Endrit nodded silently, "But the coach said we still have to watch a few more games."

... A game will be played here at Kaliskakis Stadium

on February 20th . "Viewers! Viewers! This is Sky Sports. What you are watching is a UEFA Champions League 1/8 match, the first leg of the Greek Olympiacos vs. Chelsea at home."

"I am your favorite commentator Nicole, welcome to watch today's live game."

"I am commentator Clyde. Compared with other top 16 games, the overall strength of Chelsea's opponent Olympiacos in this game is Weaker. Compared with other Premier League teams, Chelsea's luck in this round is quite good. "

Liverpool's opponent in the top 16 is Inter Milan, Arsenal's opponent is AC Milan, and Manchester United's opponent is Lyon.

There are only four Premier League teams in the top 16 of this year's Champions League, and among these four teams, only Chelsea's opponent is unknown. Fans of other Premier League teams are drooling with envy.

"Of course, Chelsea's luck has always been good." Nicole added with a smile, "If the luck was not good enough, Endritt would not be at Chelsea."

"God, you reminded me. Yes, TV Friends in the audience, please believe us, there is no luckier team in the world than Chelsea!”

“Let’s talk about today’s game. Chelsea and Olympiacos have never had any previous competition in the history of the three major European Cups! This game is also the first time that the two teams have met in the three major cup competitions, so every minute from now on, both teams are creating new history. "

There is news that Chelsea's number one forward DeRo. Ba will return in this game, and Alneca, who has newly joined Chelsea, will come on as a substitute in this game. "

"..."

"Okay, the starting lineups of both teams have been announced. The home team Olympiakos coach Lemonis. The 451 lineup was put out for this game."

The player list of the home team Olympiacos appeared below the TV.

Goalkeeper: 71-Nikopolidis

Defender : 14-Zhulakov, 5-Julio Cesar, 18-Anchas, 30-Pantos

Midfielder: 28-Ledesma, 35-Torosidis, 6-Stoltidis, 7-Galletti, 11-Djordjevic

Forward: 9-Kovacevic

Substitute: 87-Sifakis, 2-Pa Chazoglu, 4-Leonardo, 10-Nunez, 22-Mitroglu, 25-Beluschi, 77-Cisic

"Chelsea actually held Lampard down in this game. On the bench, is this for the League Cup final between Chelsea and Tottenham this weekend? Mourinho does not want to take risks with the two main midfielders. After all, if both of them are injured, it will be difficult to play against Tottenham. "Kicked."

"The referee of today's game is Plauz from Austria. He often referees the Austrian Football League."

With the whistle of the referee Plauz, the game officially started.

Chelsea kicks off.

Chelsea players in yellow jerseys advance slowly.

"Alex gave the football to Essien. Essien received the ball and shot forward... from a long distance! Can this goal be scored?!"

"A long shot in the first minute of the opening minute. This goal is very threatening.

" Threatened, but didn't go in.

Essien looked up at the football at the feet of Olympiacos player Ledesma, who was wearing a red and white arrow-striped jersey, and was very eager to get the ball to his feet again.

The Olympiacos players continued to push forward, and midfielder Ledesma passed the ball to Kovacevic, who had advanced into the Chelsea half.

Kavacevic dribbled the ball and tried to break through from the right. Makelele rushed up and intercepted the football.

"Makelele made a long pass! The football went to Malouda on the left, Malouda - Malouda knocked back to Ballack! Ballack created a corner kick!"

"Chelsea was in very good shape, 3 minutes into the game I got a corner kick, can this goal be scored?"

After a little preparation, Ballack took the corner kick directly, but the corner kick flew out and was directly pushed out by the Olympiakos player, leaving no trace in the sky.

The ball went to Olympiacos, who began to counterattack Chelsea.

"Galletti! He shot! Long shot with his right foot! Endritt struck out... Oops! The ball went too far. Olympiacos midfielder Galetti didn't seem to be good at long shots. He was completely wasted. A wonderful save from our Ritter!"

"Ritter almost jumped up, but the ball went straight away."

The game restarted and Galetti tried to break through again after taking the ball. This time, he used his left foot to pass the ball, but his strength seemed to be too much. After the football flew to the center, it still did not stop. It flew directly out of the baseline in one breath - yes, the football had not landed yet, it was still in the air. By then it was already at the bottom line.

The commentator was speechless for a moment, "This... maybe he hasn't played in the Champions League for too long, so he is still a little uncomfortable with it?"

"It's very possible, after all, this is the first time that Olympiacos has entered the Champions League 16 in nine years. The Olympiacos fans at the scene can understand their excitement. Listen, the fans are cheering for Olympiacos. "

After the football flew out of the baseline, the ball went to Chelsea's feet. But on its way to the frontcourt from the center, the football was directly stopped halfway by Olympiacos forward Kovacevic.

"Data shows that Olympiacos forward Kovacevic is very good at heading the ball, and this advantage allows Olympiacos' offensive route to usually pass from the side... through the ball!"

The football flew straight towards the goal, and was caught by Ende Ritter bent down and hugged him.

"Kovacevic's through ball, but unfortunately it did not pose any threat to the goal."

"We said before that Chelsea's luck this year is very good. And similarly, Olympiacos' luck this year is very bad. Although Olympiacos may also face other strong teams, but only Endritt stands in front of Chelsea's goal. As we all know, our Ritter will not let any ball rush into the goal he guards. "

"If Olympiacos faces. For other teams, they are very likely to perform a dark horse miracle. But when they face Chelsea, this hope is very slim. "

It can even be said that

Sky Sports is a channel of Sky TV and is broadcast in the UK and Ireland. " pay satellite TV channels. Although the match between Liverpool and Inter Milan will be broadcast live at the same time today, almost all commentators are rushing to commentate on the Chelsea match.

Without him, with Endrit on the court, as long as they give Endrit a little more footage during the game, the fans will be completely reluctant to change channels.

"Essien was called for a foul by referee Plauts when he was fighting for a header. Let's take a look at the replay of the game just now..."

Why do we need to watch the replay for fouls? Because there was nothing wrong with the calm situation on the court just now, the director's camera directly showed Endritt in front of the goal, who was staring at the football seriously.

Olympiakos midfielder Stortidi tried to lob the ball to Kovacevic in the middle, but failed. Ballack scrambled to grab the ball.

"The score has not changed in the first 10 minutes. But what we can see is that when Chelsea players start to press in the frontcourt, it will be very difficult for Olympiacos to pass and receive the ball."

Ballack passed the football After receiving the ball, Drogba rushed straight into the penalty area. Just as he was about to raise his foot to shoot, the opponent rushed out and knocked him over.

"Plautz called a foul. If there had been no foul just now, Drogba would have probably scored from this angle."

"Plautz's penalty was a bit loose. The foul just now was completely worthy of a yellow card!"

The game restarted. Olympiacos, who successfully stole the ball, began to counterattack. Olympiacos player Torosidis made a pass and the football was directly hit by Carvalho. Pushed out.

The two commentators were a little regretful. If Carvalho failed to push the football out, would they have been able to see Endrit's save? Although this must be a scene that coach Mourinho does not want to see, but - this is a scene that their commentator really wants to see!

If only Mourinho could arrange his troops as he did in the first game of this year's Champions League, then the ratings of the game explained by the two of them must be very high!

"The latest news! In the ongoing match between Roma and Real Madrid, Roma is trailing Real Madrid 0:1 at home!"

"This is very amazing. In my impression, Real Madrid will perform well as long as they play away at the Stadio Olimpico. If Real Madrid's record this year is still not good, maybe they can consider using the Olympic Stadium as their home team."

In the 15th minute of the opening, Drogba made a pass from the left, and Malouda received the ball and volleyed with his right foot. It was a pity that the goal was. He was so upright that he was hugged by the opposing goalkeeper Nicopolidis.

In the 20th minute, Belletti took a free kick.

The free kick was taken, Drogba covered it, and Carvalho attacked!

"Carvalho!"

The football flying towards the goal was suppressed by Nicopolidis.

"What a pity. This goal is Chelsea's best chance so far in the first half! But the goal still failed to score. What's wrong with Chelsea? They couldn't win it cleanly against Olympiacos. A win? "

Four minutes later, Olympiacos was awarded a free kick.

"Endrit! He directly predicted the direction of Kovacevic's shot! The free kick was easily collected by Endrit!"

In the 26th minute, Chelsea's attack on the right made a passing and receiving error. In another game at this time, Roma team David Pizarro scored to equalize the score with Real Madrid.

Only Chelsea, the current score is still at 0:0.

In the 28th minute, Chelsea made another major mistake. Drogba took the ball from the center to the right baseline, but he was in place but no player came to respond. The ball was intercepted directly by the opposite player.

Olympiacos immediately launched a counterattack, but they seemed to be good at only one offensive line: midfielder Galletti passed the ball from the right, and the football hit Carvalho directly and flew out of the baseline.

The commentator's voice was much softer than before, and he had something in his mind that he didn't know whether to say or not: This is not like a match between Chelsea and a weak team. This is just a game between novices!

The ball came to Chelsea. Malouda made a pass from the right. After receiving the ball, Essien headed the ball from the center. The angle was too high and the football flew over the crossbar.

In the 30th minute of the game, Olympiacos launched a counterattack again. It was still Galetti from the right who kicked the ball. The football was still stopped by the defender before it could fly to Endrit.

"There were boos at the scene, and the fans were a little impatient."

"Chelsea has found its form, and maybe they can break the deadlock soon."
