Qin Xiong stood in the Stamford Bridge stadium and looked at the Blues team that he had not seen for three years. He really did not have a sense of deja vu.
Of course, seeing Ashley Cole wearing the Blues jersey was more or less a little awkward.
Drogba, Lampard, Terry, Carvalho, Essien. These players from the Blues were the ones who fought fiercely against Arsenal for the title three years ago.
Qin Xiong could not help but think of Mourinho, the special one. He infused the Blues with the spirit of iron and blood, but sadly stepped down in 2006 because he could not bring Abramovich the Premier League or Champions League title for two consecutive years.
Qin Xiong did not think too much about it when he saw the news and heard that he was doing well at Inter Milan.
Qin Xiong's return to the Premier League evoked nightmares for many players, and the Blues players were no exception.
Back then, he and Henry led Arsenal together to make Chelsea runner-up for two consecutive years. To this day, Chelsea still had not won the Premier League title, and the year they came closest to the title was 2005, the season in which the Blues had the highest points record in history. They were also the highest points runner-up in the Premier League so far!
Were the eyes of enemies exceptionally red when they met?
Probably not.
Qin Xiong even hugged Lampard when he shook hands with the generals of the Blue Army.
"This round's finale is also the focus of the big battle. The game between Chelsea and Liverpool is about to start.
Chelsea starts 4-4-3 today.
Goalkeeper: Hilario.
Defenders: Bosingwa, Terry, Carvalho, Ashley Cole.

The match is about to begin. Let's enjoy this great battle between the red and blue teams! "
Liverpool kicked off first today. After the game at Stamford Bridge started, Liverpool first began to pass and interact in the middle and back of the field. They did not suddenly pull up the pace of the game. It was an away game anyway, so they had to give some face to the host.
However, the show of strength came very quickly.
Qin Xiong was originally on the sidelines of the midfield, forming a small passing circle with Alonso, Gerard, and Aurelio. He received, passed, moved, moved, and continued to receive, pass, and move.
In the third minute of the game, he suddenly ran forward from the side of the midfield.
Alonso saw Qin Xiong's sudden acceleration from the back of the midfield and immediately passed the ball diagonally to Qin Xiong.
In order to bypass Ballack and Lampard, who were extremely experienced in positioning themselves, Alonso had no choice but to pass a half-high ball.
The football flew to the sidelines of the dangerous zone in the front field. Bosingwa saw Qin Xiong ready to receive, so he went forward to intercept after Qin Xiong stopped the ball.
The football bounced and flew to Qin Xiong's front. At this time, Qin Xiong received with his back turned, and Bosingwa was just one meter behind him.
Qin Xiong suddenly turned around. Bosingwa was a little surprised. It looked like Qin Xiong was ready to miss the ball. However, if he missed, the ball would be out of bounds!
But just as Qin Xiong turned to sprint from the left side of Bosingwa's body, closer to the outside, his left heel knocked the falling football behind Bosingwa!
A rainbow pass!
The combination of turning and running was done in one go.
Regardless of whether or not Bosingwa knew that Qin Xiong had magic on his heels, he seemed to be stunned.
Qin Xiong, who suddenly started, seemed to explode with amazing power, shocking Bosingwa. By the time Bosingwa reacted and turned around, he was already completely shaken off by Qin Xiong.
When all the Blues fans at Stamford Bridge saw the image of Qin Xiong using his heel to pick the ball past, they unanimously recalled the classic battle that Qin Xiong had once played against Chelsea. In a game, he had used his heel to complete the creation of goals, assists, and goal breakers three times. Qin Xiong had used his heel to complete the goals or assists for all three goals!
It seemed that Qin Xiong was using this method to greet Chelsea: I haven't seen you for three years. Did you miss me? Oh, and my heel!
After all, Chelsea was a team that had been honed on the battlefield and had a big heart. They would not fall into panic because Bosingwa was played by Qin Xiong.
Essien moved into the penalty area, and Terry moved to the edge of the penalty area, ready to block Qin Xiong's forward path at any time. Ballack and Lampard retreated to form a barrier behind their waistline. Chelsea, which was composed of steel and muscle, had a well-deserved reputation for their defensive achievements, and each of their players had unique skills.
However, when faced with Qin Xiong, who did not play by the rules, no one could expect to make Qin Xiong raise his hands and surrender after doing their best by following the rules.
He always brought surprise and shock to his opponents.
After Qin Xiong controlled the ball outside the penalty area and cut two steps in the direction of the penalty area, he suddenly raised his leg to shoot!
Bang!
It was not fancy at all. It was a clean shot!
A powerful volley!
Terry subconsciously wanted to raise his leg to block, but he knew it was useless after he raised his leg!
Because he did not think that Qin Xiong would choose to shoot when there was only about a 30-degree shooting angle!
Wasn't this nonsense?
Did he treat a top striker like Torres as air?
Did Gerard, who was supporting in the middle, also have no temper?
If Chelsea knew what Comain's tactical deployment for this game was, he would not be surprised that Qin Xiong would choose to shoot in such a situation. It was a seemingly selfish and arrogant choice.
Comain, who stood on the sidelines, was calm. The nine consecutive league and Champions League victories made him secure in the manager's position, and at the same time, he was supported by the locker room.
And today, he believed that wealth came from danger. Liverpool could make some adjustments.
Qin Xiong's firing rights rose sharply!
It even surpassed Torres's.
Because Torres and Gerard were in the middle, their environment was bound to be marked by Chelsea.
In the past nine consecutive wins, Qin Xiong most of the time played his organizational talent and acted as an attacking midfielder like Ronaldinho. Although he could also shoot and score, the firing rights were still concentrated in the hands of Torres and Gerard. In terms of the efficiency of converting shots into goals, Torres was far lower than Qin Xiong.
In today's game, Comain wanted Qin Xiong to play to his scoring ability!
To put it bluntly, in the past, Qin Xiong played the role of the side midfielder or winger in the team like Ronaldinho. Today, Qin Xiong wanted to become an inside winger like Ronaldo in Manchester United, and he had the right to fire first!
Therefore, the Liverpool players were not surprised that Qin Xiong would do this.
This was arranged before the game.
Moreover, with Qin Xiong's strength, he had already won over his teammates.
Was a 30-degree shooting angle considered a forced shot?
No, for Qin Xiong, a zero-angle shooting was also allowed. It was not like he had not scored a zero-angle goal before!
Qin Xiong's shot was powerful and heavy. Terry's raised leg could not touch the football at all. Hilario had not warmed up his body when he hurriedly moved in the direction of the near post of the goal. He looked at the football, which was like a meteor, and gritted his teeth to make a save. But his raised palm still could not touch the football.
The ball blasted into the goal from the top of the near post!
The Red Army took the lead at Stamford Bridge!
