Chapter 971

Chapter 971
On December [-]th, what the media called the "Battle of Focus" finally came.

The Manchester City Stadium was packed, and Manchester City fans took the game very seriously.

If Manchester City can beat Chelsea at home, then in the case of one game less, Manchester City will lead Chelsea by four points.

With this four-point advantage, Manchester City will have a slightly easier time in the upcoming Christmas fixtures.

Even if a game is not won by accident, it will not be overtaken by Chelsea.

Rong Guang felt that this game was normal, but that was just his opinion. In fact, most people agreed with the media's point of view-this is a strong dialogue, a battle of focus, and a decision on the league seat.

This time when Chelsea faced Manchester City, they did not shrink and defend. Although Ancelotti's team played a defensive counterattack in the away game, the defensive counterattack and the shrinking defense of giving up offense are completely different.

Facing such a strong home team at home in Manchester City, there is no problem in choosing a defensive counterattack.

The most important thing is that the team has a counterattack.

Last season, Hiddink completely gave up offense.

After the start of the game, Manchester City, playing at home, took the initiative. They launched a fierce offensive towards Chelsea's goal, hoping to score first at home and take the lead.

And Chelsea can only threaten Manchester City's goal by counterattacking.

Even the commentator John Mortensen said that "Manchester City suppressed Chelsea".

But the first goal was not Manchester City, but... Chelsea.

But the player who scored the goal was not a Chelsea player, but a Manchester City player...

"Drogba——! Joe Hart threw the football, but the ball still rolled to the goal line tenaciously! Kompany returned to the goal line, and he made a big kick!"

This was a counterattack from Chelsea, with three passes and two falls, the football fell to Drogba's feet, the Ivorian center kicked an angry shot, and the football flew to the goal against the turf.

Joe Hart threw the football hard, but the football still rolled towards the goal.

The Manchester City fans in the stands were all screaming. Kompany slapped the horse and made a big-footed clearance!
Everyone thinks the crisis is over.

But at this moment, the football kicked by Kompany hit David Silva who was returning to the defense!

"David Silva - oh no! Goal! Goal!"

John Mortensen's tone was full of twists and turns, and the mood of Manchester City fans was like a roller coaster.

"Own goal! David Silva scored an own goal!"

Drogba, who made the own goal with a shot, turned and rushed to his teammates, hugging and celebrating the goal with them.

And David Silva stood blankly in front of the goal. In this game, he finally won the chance to start. He thought it was his chance.

As a result, he scored an own goal in less than 10 minutes of playing the game!

What the hell!
In order to be able to express himself as best as possible, he is not only very active in offense, but also actively returns to defense when defending.As a result, it seems that it is wrong for him to come back and participate in the defense so actively...

In Chelsea's counterattack just now, he has been returning to Manchester City's penalty area from the position of the avant-garde line.Then he saw Drogba's shot was saved by Joe Hart, but the football was still rolling towards the goal. He accelerated and rushed back, hoping to be a hero on the goal line and clear the football on the goal line.

But if he didn't rush over, maybe it would be fine.

He rushed up very actively, but Kompany kicked the football on him and bounced into the goal...

How unlucky!
David Silva looked back at the cheering and celebrating Chelsea players, crying without tears!
※※※

"Silva is really unlucky. This game replaced Robinho in the starting lineup, but he scored an own goal at the beginning of the game. I hope this goal will not affect his mood and state..."

"We made a lot of predictions before the game, and we also thought about Chelsea scoring first, but we never thought that Chelsea would take the lead in this way..."

"David Silva was very active from the beginning of the game, whether he was attacking or defending, he could be seen from every corner. But I must point out that this activity and activity is not a good thing. He is a little too excited..."

"David Silva is still too young..."

If David Silva could hear the comments of the commentators, he would probably vomit blood-he was so active, and he didn't get a good deal!

But if David Silva has heard a Chinese idiom called "haste makes waste", he will probably know where he is wrong...

※※※

Chelsea fans in the stands were cheering for their lead.

"It seems that this goal was an accident, but I think Chelsea had a sign before the goal. Ancelotti's tactics are correct, and the defensive counterattack is effective. If you continue to play like this, even if this goal is not scored, Chelsea will score sooner or later!"

The announcer on Chelsea Radio spoke excitedly.

And those Chelsea fans who couldn't follow the team to the away game cheered in front of the TV and radio.

"That's right! Sooner or later we will score!"

"Victory in this game will definitely belong to Chelsea!"

※※※

Conceding a goal at the beginning of the game, no one wants to encounter such a thing, let alone conceding an own goal.

It was really demoralizing.

Players can't even complain, they can't publicly accuse David Silva, can they?

They hold their breath but have nowhere to vent.

It's so unconvinced to lose the ball like this!

As the captain of the team, Rong Guang didn't say anything to encourage his teammates, nor did he stand up and do anything.

He just stood in the middle circle with Berbatov, waiting for the game to restart.

"Hey……"

Berbatov on the opposite side suddenly sighed, and Rong Guang looked up at him.

"I feel that the Spaniard's mood is not right since yesterday. He shared a room with me yesterday, but he was very excited. I was tossed by him until twelve o'clock before I fell asleep. Now he is too excited..." Berbatov explained to Rongguang. "Still too young..."

He shook his head.

At this moment, the Chelsea players participating in the celebration all ran back to their own half.

The game is about to restart.

When Ballack ran past Rongguang, he turned and winked at him: "Own goal, even God is on our side. This time it's our turn to win!"

Rong Guang replied to him in German: "Dream!"

Berbatov, who had played in the Bundesliga for many years, understood the conversation between the two of them. He glanced at Rong Guang and then at Ballack.

Barack ran away backwards, laughing exaggeratedly.

※※※

After the game restarted, David Silva was not as active as before. He seemed to be worried that his good intentions would not help, and another thing like an own goal would happen.

He obediently stayed within the scope of activities that Benitez had set for him, and never crossed the threshold.

After getting the ball, I also pass the football as soon as possible to my teammates, but I am not very willing to take responsibility.

After scoring an own goal, his emotions fluctuated a lot. At this time, he still doesn't know how to face the next game.

It seems that the offense on his side has basically been abolished.

"Now I can only watch Rong's!"

That's what the narrators say.

Chelsea also shifted the focus of defense to Rong Guang.

As long as Rong Guang takes the ball, there will be at least two Chelsea players around him.

Rong Guang originally got the ball in the middle, but was forced all the way to the side by Chelsea's defenders.

The Chelsea fans in front of the TV cheered as the team completed a successful defense.

It looked like there was no escape for Glory.

But Rong Guang still wanted to break through, so he dribbled the ball and rushed into the penalty area.

The players in Chelsea's entire defense line were almost attracted by him, and everyone's eyes and attention fell on him together.

"Rong forced a breakthrough! But there are too many people in front of him, this is not a good choice!"

shouted John Mortensen.

In the eyes of outsiders, Rongguang is surrounded by Chelsea players. They surround Rongguang, and Rongguang is almost invisible.

It is absolutely impossible for Rong Guang to break through successfully. Even if he gets into the penalty area by chance, such dense defense will not even give him a chance to shoot!
But at this moment, the football suddenly rolled out of the encirclement!
Berbatov, who didn't respond, was a little bigger, and went straight to the back point!

The football passed behind Berbatov.

"The pass is too big..."

But before John Mortensen finished speaking, he saw a person rushing up from behind!

"David Silva!" Alan Hansen exclaimed.

Amidst his shouts, David Silva, who scored an own goal, shot at the ball!

The football rushed straight to the goal like a fired shell.

Cech, who was originally defending at the front point, hastily shifted to the back point at this time, and it was too late to make a save. When the football had hit the net behind him, he made the move.

"David Silva! He equalized! He will make up for it!"

"Everyone in Chelsea was attracted by Rong, and completely forgot about David Silva who is not very active!"

※※※

After scoring the goal, David Silva froze for a moment, then he ran towards Rongguang.

The ball was an opportunity created by Rongguang. If it wasn't for Rongguang's forceful breakthrough, which attracted Chelsea's defensive attention, how could he rush to the back so easily to shoot?

This goal allowed him to let go of his previous mental burden all at once.

Liberated him from the shadow of own goals.

Some people may think that the glory is passed on, but David Silva knows that the glory was passed on to himself on purpose!
He is trying to help himself!
David Silva rushed forward and hugged Rong Guang.

"Thank you!" He shouted in Rong Guang's ear.

Rong Guang patted him on the back: "Good shot!"

More Manchester City players rushed up and surrounded them.

The score was equalized before the first half was over, which is really good news.

And David Silva's goal also gave them a reassurance, and they were a little impatient after losing the ball.

Don't worry now, we are back on the same starting line with them!

"Nice job, David!"

Everyone patted David Silva on the shoulders and head, and praised him loudly.
