"goooooooa1! The ball has been scored! It was Frank Lampard who scored the goal!" Andy Gray yelled in disbelief in the live broadcast room. Obviously, the ace commentator on Sky TV felt quite incredible about Chelsea's equalizer at the last moment - when was the last time Tottenham failed to win the final victory when leading by two goals? Already? I'm afraid that was back when Levy and Joe Lewis were in charge of White Hart Lane, right?
While Andy Gray was rummaging around and using all the words he could think of to praise the indomitable Chelsea, the Chelsea players celebrated excitedly on the court - just like Andy Gray, they did not expect that they could really do it. Come this far!
Seeing Lampard score the equalizer at the last minute, Mourinho couldn't hide his excitement and hugged the coaching staff on the sidelines! Just looking at the expression on the madman's face, someone who didn't know it might mistakenly think that Chelsea had won a victory at White Hart Lane!
"Lampard's long-range shot is indeed very beautiful, but in fact, Ibrahimovic is the biggest contributor to Chelsea's equalizer." At the same time, Martin Taylor began to analyze Chelsea's move in the live broadcast room. "The Swede first pulled a point back for Chelsea with a wonderful turn-around shot in the 75th minute, and then calmly faced Vidic and Mascherano in stoppage time. After a flanking attack, he finally cleverly assisted Lampard, who was inserted in the back row, to score... So, the credit for Chelsea's escape from White Hart Lane today is none other than Ibrahimovic!"
"But having said that, Tottenham had the opportunity to kill the suspense of the game. Unfortunately, Drogba failed to seize that excellent opportunity, thus giving Chelsea a breathing space." Andy Gray in Said with a very regretful tone. As a Tottenham fan, he naturally felt quite regretful about this result.
Andy Gray's words were not unfounded. Indeed, if Drogba hadn't missed the single shot before, Tottenham could have expanded the score to three to one. In this way, even if Lampard scores another goal in stoppage time, it will not have any impact on the overall situation of the game!
It is precisely because of this realization that when the Chelsea players celebrated the goal, Drogba's mood seemed quite low: "Captain, it's all my fault. If I could have scored that single goal before..."
"Stop it, Didier (Drogba). No one here is stingy enough to blame you for this draw. If you say so, we are still the same team without guarding Ibrahimovic. One of the main culprits for being tied by Chelsea in this game." Ledley King waved his hand to stop Drogba from making an apology. "No one can never miss, even if they are great like Robert Baggio. Like Platini, didn’t we also miss key penalties? The important thing is that we learn from experience and try to eliminate the possibility of making the same mistakes again.”
"Okay, captain, I will definitely remember the lessons learned this time!" Hearing Ledley King's words, Drogba's originally depressed mood finally felt better. The Cote d'Ivoire World of Warcraft secretly made up his mind that he would practice shooting after every team training in the future, and he would never let such a thing happen to him again!
If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good. Drogba's success in his previous life was certainly due to his incredible physical fitness, but the Ivorian's mental toughness and good habit of correcting his mistakes are the most important reasons for his success!
The most typical negative example is Inter Milan's Adriano. The Brazilian center, who was dubbed the new King of Meazza by Inter Milan fans after Vieri aged out, also has extremely excellent physical fitness. However, after becoming famous, the King of Inter Milan surrendered and immersed himself in the feasting and feasting of the fashionable capital. Among them, the competitive status dropped again and again, and finally had to bid farewell to European football early and stay away from the mainstream football circle.
Although the Chelsea players' celebration was forcibly terminated due to Webber's intervention, the three minutes of injury time had actually passed. Therefore, after the game restarted, Tottenham players did not even organize a wave of offense, and Webber blew the whistle to announce the end of the game!
In this way, after ninety minutes of fierce competition, Tottenham Hotspur, who once led by two goals in the game, lost a good game and were equalized by Lampard at the last moment. They finally shook hands with Chelsea and missed a chance. A perfect opportunity to extend your lead in the standings!
"Congratulations to Chelsea, we were able to equalize the score at the last moment. I'm very happy," George said at the press conference after the game. "Zlatan Ibrahimovic Qi is a very good young player, and over time, he will definitely become another top center forward. Chelsea can take away a draw from White Hart Lane today, and they should thank Ibrahimovic for his outstanding performance in this game."
Hearing that George had such a high opinion of Ibrahimovic, the reporters were all excited and writing furiously off the court. After all, there are not many young players who can be so praised by George. Even Dean Ashton, who was loaned out by them and regarded by the English media as the next Alan Shearer, has not received this level of praise.
In addition, some sharp-minded reporters also heard another meaning in George's words. That is, without Ibrahimovic's savior, Chelsea would have been torn apart by Tottenham in this game. How could they have a chance to escape unscathed?
"Coach Nelson's words do make sense. Chelsea is indeed lucky to have an outstanding center like Zlatan (Ibrahimovic)." Mourinho also heard the implications of George's words, and naturally wanted to To refute, "However, I also envy Coach Nelson. Robben's pass and shot in the first half made us 0-2 behind early. If the Dutchman hadn't been replaced by Franck Ribery later due to exhaustion, we would have It’s really not necessarily possible to equalize the score.”
Seeing Mourinho talking about Robben, even if George was still unconvinced, he could only choose to end the topic. Although the specific situations of Robben and Ibrahimovic are not the same, in terms of results, there is really no difference between the two people who also scored a goal and assisted once in this game.
However, a piece of news then came from another venue, and Tottenham, who was regretting the draw, immediately swept away the haze. That is, although the table battle between Tottenham and Chelsea ended in a draw, third-ranked Arsenal failed to take the opportunity to close the gap-the Gunners visiting the Reebok Stadium faced Bolton led by Allardyce. After suffering a lot, Giannakopoulos scored the only goal of the game before the end of the first half, and finally walked out of the Reebok Stadium with a 0-1 defeat!
Arsenal's unexpected away defeat meant that although Tottenham failed to achieve their goal of leading Chelsea by four points after the draw, they further expanded their points advantage over third place!
