The sea of blue in the stands at Stamford Bridge seemed to be boiling with fire!
The Blues fans enthusiastically cheered for Lampard. The star player, who came to Chelsea from West Ham United to become the world's number one midfielder, had become a banner for the Blues.
His goal at the crucial moment calmed the fans down!
Wenger wiped his sweat on the sidelines and felt a little helpless.
The depletion in the league four days ago must have had a great impact on Arsenal. Arsenal received the reward of returning to the top of the league, but the drawbacks in this game became obvious. When there was a flaw in the defensive line, Chelsea's counterattack looked sharper than before. It was not that Chelsea had become stronger, but that Arsenal's stamina and rhythm could not keep up with Chelsea's lightning-fast counterattack speed.
"Chelsea scored the third goal of the game! Lampard's long-range shot on the penalty area line was brilliant! Decisive, ruthless, and a fatal blow! He did not give Lehmann any chance. The angle of the shot was tricky, and the football was as fast as lightning! Chelsea leads Arsenal by 3: 1, with a total score of 5: 4. "
Mourinho directly made a substitution on the sidelines. Huth went into the field and replaced the full-back, Johnson. Mourinho had to readjust the defensive arrangement to make Chelsea's defense foolproof. At the same time, he would not give up the threat of counterattack from the flank, which would actually take a greater risk.
As he walked to the backfield, Qin Xiong went to Ashley Cole's side and told him about the change in the offensive method of the assists to the front field.
Ashley Cole listened seriously to Qin Xiong's advice and nodded solemnly before the two men separated.
There were only about 20 minutes left in the game. Arsenal had to score, even if they knew that the full-back's assist would give the opponent a better space to counterattack. Arsenal had no choice but to attack!
Chelsea began to stall for time. The current score gave them a psychological advantage, and it was not as superficial as a one-goal lead.
Arsenal did not panic in this situation. When Chelsea contracted the defensive line as a whole, Qin Xiong methodically controlled the situation in the midfield. He needed to let his teammates breathe and assess the situation. Before organizing a threatening offensive, he needed to ensure that the players at all points were in a favorable attacking position and had to be mentally and physically prepared to meet Chelsea's intensive defense.
Ashley Cole continued to press forward to assist. He and Pires seemed to have moved forward a notch. Pires became a winger, and Ashley Cole became a side midfielder.
In the 82nd minute of the game, Qin Xiong saw that Vieira was ready to make a move. Ljungberg's position on the flank tore apart the width of Chelsea's defensive line. Pires was always ready to plug in from the gap between Huth and Terry. Henry occupied a key position in front of the defensive line, and at the same time, Terry and Carvalho had to focus their attention on him.
It was at this time that Qin Xiong launched a carefully prepared threatening offensive.
He moved to the left side of the midfield, attracted Duff's attention, and reduced the pressure for Ashley Cole to plug in. Then he immediately passed the ball to Ashley Cole.
It looked like a very ordinary offensive picture, but Ashley Cole did not burst out with acceleration when he dribbled the ball forward. He remembered what Qin Xiong had just told him. His focus was not on Chelsea's defensive line, but on the midfield line!
He needed to create chaos in the midfield line!
So, after coming to the area near the attacking midfielder area, Ashley Cole dribbled the ball directly and moved horizontally.
His dribbling change made Makelele very uncomfortable. On the one hand, he was still afraid of the threat that Pires could create in the flank of the penalty area. On the other hand, if he left Ashley Cole alone, who could guarantee that England's best full-back would do something that Chelsea would regret?
It was under the influence of this kind of thinking that Makelele just moved two steps in front of Ashley Cole, trying to block Ashley Cole's sudden burst of forward acceleration.
But when Ashley Cole saw that Makelele was restrained by him, he immediately passed the ball across the field. Qin Xiong was closely marked by Lampard like a shadow.
But when the football rolled over, Qin Xiong kept on using his left heel to return the ball while engaging in a physical confrontation with Lampard!
Lampard hesitated at that moment. After all, defending against the opponent still had to pay attention to the trajectory of the football!
Qin Xiong leisurely returned the ball with his heel. This chic and unrestrained temperament on the field was enviable. At the same time, it would also create a temporary distraction for the opponent. It was absolutely subconscious.
Lampard just turned his head to look in the direction of the return ball and became alert. But Qin Xiong had already left him behind by a body length and sprinted forward.
The football that rolled back to the back fell at the feet of Vieira. Vieira stopped the ball and made a straight pass. The football rolled diagonally from less than two meters away from Lampard to Qin Xiong's running route.
Qin Xiong had completely shaken off Lampard, but he could not slow down. Once he stopped the ball and adjusted in place, Lampard was bound to harass or intercept behind him.
Qin Xiong took the football from behind and moved forward. In front of him, Tiago was ready to intercept as if he was facing a formidable enemy. With the ball already in motion, Qin Xiong smoothly and quickly made a bicycle move in front of Tiago.
Tiago thought that Qin Xiong would make a feint and immediately change direction like he did when he scored the goal in the penalty area.
But he was wrong!
Qin Xiong was getting closer and closer to Tiago as he moved forward. His right foot made a half-circle in front of the football, followed by his left foot, then his right foot, and then his left foot!
Two complete bicycles, dazzling the onlookers!
He was like a masculine and fearless teenager on a bicycle!
In fact, in this confrontation, Qin Xiong calmly stared at Tiago as he made his technical moves.
Tiago was dizzy from Qin Xiong's movements. The pressure was unimaginable. Finally, when his body had the tendency to extend his leg forward to intercept, Qin Xiong's eyes focused slightly and the direction of the explosion appeared!
Tiago's right foot intercepted the left side. He thought this was the choice with the highest success rate.
But in fact, Qin Xiong did not have an anticipated breakthrough route in advance. He was just waiting!
Waiting for Tiago to make the first move!
As long as Tiago intercepted, he would immediately change direction and break through in the direction of the exposed gap!
When he brushed past Tiago and succeeded in the breakthrough, Tiago felt as if his whole proud heart was shattered!
It meant that the midfield defense that Chelsea was proud of was defeated by Arsenal!
Qin Xiong faced Carvalho after his successful breakthrough. At this time, the situation in front of Qin Xiong suddenly became clear.
Henry played a trick. He ran diagonally to the gap between Terry and Carvalho when Qin Xiong had just succeeded in the breakthrough.
After running only one step, Terry wanted to close in on this side of the gap and close in on Carvalho's direction.
But Henry immediately ran to the other side. Just after the change in his running position, Qin Xiong's pass came as scheduled!
Terry gritted his teeth and stopped to give chase. He did not realize that he was already two beats behind Henry's rhythm!
He had just turned back to defend when Henry faced the rolling football and dribbled in the opposite direction in front of Terry again!
Terry was confused by Henry's running position once and was shaken off by Henry in the process of stopping to give chase!
Terry was drenched in cold sweat and his heart was full of panic.
Henry already had a wide angle to shoot!
The King of Highbury did not hesitate at all. He stopped and dribbled while swinging out an angle to shoot. His next move was to shoot.
He pulled out his leg and shot. Čech only took a step forward to block the angle and stopped. The football flew into Chelsea's goal!
How could Henry miss such an opportunity?
