Football: What Happened To Going To The Nightclub? I Have To Score-Chapter 408 The Game Is Heating Up, And The Time To Test The Stars Is Coming!
Chapter 408 - 408 The Game Is Heating Up, And The Time To Test The Stars Is Coming!
Lukaku first turned to praise Fabregas for the assist, then faced the home crowd, shaking his fists triumphantly at the Chelsea fans.
The Stamford Bridge stands erupted with cheers.
"Lukaku!"
Zhan Jun's voice boomed in the webcast room.
Zhan Jun: "What a performance! His physical strength is absolutely incredible. He completely dominated the United defenders in that confrontation!"
Zhang: "Chelsea take the lead again! CE! As expected, playing at home gives Chelsea an edge. Their sheer strength is undeniable."
However, Director Zhang offered a different perspective.
Director Zhang: "Chelsea's attack has been sharp, no doubt. Scoring 24 goals in the league so far is impressive. But we shouldn't overlook Manchester United's defensive organization."
Zhan Jun: "Oh? So, you're saying United's defense isn't at fault here?"
Director Zhang: "Exactly. These goals are largely a result of Chelsea players' individual brilliance. When it comes to tactical execution, Manchester United might actually have the upper hand."
After the restart, the pressure shifted back to Manchester United.
The deafening cheers from the Stamford Bridge crowd hung over them like a storm cloud. Each United player felt the immense weight of the moment.
The clock ticked into the 30th minute, with fifteen minutes remaining in the first half.
On the sidelines, José Mourinho remained uncharacteristically composed. His usual animated demeanor had been replaced with a calm, calculating presence.
Mourinho had spotted a flaw in Chelsea's defense.
Manchester United's chance came soon after.
In midfield, Ander Herrera took control of the ball. Known for his organizational skills, Herrera was poised to launch an attack.
But Chelsea's midfield duo had other plans.
First came Zappacosta, sprinting forward at high speed.
Zappacosta's rise to Chelsea's starting XI in recent matches was no coincidence. His relentless energy and defensive tenacity had earned him Conte's trust.
Now, in the heat of battle, Zappacosta gave everything he had.
He closed in on Herrera with precision, engaging in a physical duel without hesitation. Using his superior strength, Zappacosta pressed hard, forcing Herrera off balance.
It was textbook defense.
The disruption bought time for N'Golo Kanté to close in as well.
With both Zappacosta and Kanté marking him, Herrera had no clear options. The pressure was suffocating.
In the end, Herrera had no choice but to pass the ball backward, retreating to Manchester United's defensive line.
The ball found Chris Smalling, who wasted no time launching a long pass upfield.
Moment of brilliance!
The ball soared past the halfway line and landed perfectly at Marcus Rashford's feet.
Rashford immediately showcased his speed.
Azpilicueta was already in position to defend, but Rashford didn't hesitate. A quick tap forward, and he darted past Azpilicueta with ease.
It was vintage Rashford. His pace was unmatched.
Cutting inside with surgical precision, Rashford broke into Chelsea's penalty area.
This was his moment.
His raw talent and individual ability were on full display. The Stamford Bridge crowd held its breath.
