Entering the locker room at halftime, Ancelotti was a little helpless. Cech was already the strongest defender he could rely on, but there were still mistakes in the first half.
"Didier! Come on in the second half."
Ancelotti said to Drogba.
"Yeah! Follow the coach's arrangements."
Drogba also answered in the affirmative.
"Okay, let's do this in the second half... like this... again like this..."
Ancelotti also arranged the tactics for the second half for the players.
Tottenham, on the other hand, are enjoying themselves. They are leading and have a greater chance of winning.
In the second half, the Blues and Chelsea made substitution adjustments, with Drogba replacing Mikel.
In the 47th minute, Tottenham intercepted the ball in the frontcourt and counterattacked, passing the ball continuously from the right. Defoe took Lennon's pass and volleyed from outside the penalty area. The ball missed the post and flew out of the baseline.
In the 52nd minute, Drogba got the ball outside the penalty area and dodged the defense and volleyed vigorously. The ball was blocked by Gomez.
In the 55th minute, Malouda passed a diagonal pass in front of the goal from the right. Palacios headed the ball backwards and the ball flew towards his own door. Fortunately, Gomez responded in time and blocked the ball.
In the 59th minute, Tottenham made substitution adjustments and Crouch replaced Defoe.
As for Chelsea, Ancelotti looked back at Xiao Yu and said with a smile: "Xiao! Warm up!"
In the 61st minute, Bell got the ball from the right and used his speed to cut to the middle and shoot 27 meters from the door. The ball went wide.
In the 65th minute, Essien had a chance to counterattack and hit the opponent's frontcourt with a long shot 28 meters away from the goal. The ball was blocked by Dawson.
In the 68th minute, Chelsea made a substitution adjustment and replaced Kalu with Xiao Yu.
In the 69th minute, Modric passed the ball to Bell. Bell accelerated and passed Malouda, and then prepared to pass Ivanovic again.
But Ivanovic relied on experience to force Bell to the wing.
Seeing that there was no hope of a breakthrough, Bell had no choice but to retreat and hand the ball to Modric again.
Modric met the ball with a long shot.
Fortunately, Cech concentrated and tried his best to win the ball.
Cech also looked towards the frontcourt, raised his arms high, Cech also raised the corners of his mouth, and then drove the football in that direction with a big foot.
Because it was Tottenham's opportunity to attack and their formation was still pressing forward, Cech's kick just flew over everyone's heads from the sky.
A blue figure appeared not far from Michael Dawson.
He seemed to be chasing the football.
Then, under everyone's gaze, the blue figure opened a visible distance from Dawson in an instant.
The next breath, the football had begun to fall, and the blue figure arrived almost at the same time.
Gomez in front of the goal has also attacked, and the football fell. Judging from its position, it will be under Gomez's control after it bounces next time.
However, Gomez no longer has this opportunity.
The Blues player had already raised his right foot to touch the football, and then the football passed over Gomez's head.
Although Gomez encountered football with all his strength, he was unable to change the trajectory of football.
The football drew a perfect parabola in the air and accurately fell into Tottenham's goal.
"Ah! The ball went in! Xiao Yu, he caught Cech's big foot, and then made a wonderful lob, scoring a key goal for Chelsea and helping the team equalize the score!" Zhan Jun shouted, Full of excitement.
"Xiao Yu is really born to score goals! This is his first shot after coming on the field, and once again successfully helped the Blues reverse the situation!" Zhang Lu couldn't hold back her excitement, and her blood boiled.
"Xiao Yu's speed is really difficult to defend. Gomez's attack was fast enough, but it was still a step too slow."
"It's not just about speed, it also requires excellent skills and enough courage."
"1:1, Chelsea equalized the score, now it depends on how Tottenham responds."
After Xiao Yu scored this goal, he was actually a little embarrassed. In order to avoid colliding with Gomez, he had to use the power of the shot to fall to the other side.
Before landing, he rolled around and finally lay on the lawn.
Still, he didn't hesitate to get up and celebrate.
Because this goal did not use a sure-shot card, but relied entirely on his personal ability.
Therefore, his celebration was even more unbridled and filled with the joy of victory.
However, a player standing in the midfield took a few deep breaths. His face resembled that of the Monkey King in the animated movie "The Return of the Monkey King."
Looking back on the past at Tottenham, and even in the Premier League, he was synonymous with speed, and no one could match him.
But now, facing the Blues' newcomer named Xiao, his speed advantage has been seriously questioned.
Now he actually helped the Blues equalize the score.
No, he should be the hero of White Hart Lane, the one who should be praised. He shook his head and glared at the celebrating boy.
The anger in his heart was hard to calm down, and he was full of determination to challenge Xiao Yu unwillingly.
In the 73rd minute, Modric broke through with the ball, and Essien knocked him down with a perfect position.
Referee Dean immediately blew the whistle and showed Essien a yellow card.
Essien looked at the referee in disbelief. He wanted to explain that it was a reasonable collision and it was Modric who was not standing firmly.
Modric was also a little embarrassed. He knew in his heart that it was because of his thin body that Essien's blocking position caused him to lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground.
Ancelotti on the sidelines also roared at the fourth official. This was obviously a reasonable collision, how could he be shown a yellow card.
However, when the referee raised his hand, Modric quickly took the free kick. Unfortunately, Palacios did not realize what he meant. He was stunned and stopped the ball like the national football team. Two meters away.
Van Dyke immediately stepped forward and passed the ball to Xiao Yu in the frontcourt.
Xiao Yu leaned against Lennon and faced the football. He turned around without stopping when the ball came. The football passed straight through Lennon's side. Xiao Yu took the ball forward with big strides.
Lennon wanted to chase, but found that it was beyond his capabilities.
However, a young man in white clothes on the right also rushed up, and he rushed diagonally towards Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu did not look to the right. At this time, he only had the goal in his eyes. His next plan was to get rid of Sebastian Basson. As for Michael Dawson, Drogba had to control him.
However, at the moment when he was about to break through the defense line, a white figure suddenly flew out from the side. Bell's flying shovel was precise and swift, appearing in Xiao Yu's sight without warning.
Xiao Yu only had time to catch a glimpse of Bell's shimmering soles before he felt his ankle being knocked down by a huge force.
His body lost balance and flew backwards like a hit cannonball.
The ground spun quickly before his eyes, and the grass brushed against his cheek, leaving a stinging scratch.
