Chapter 81
On the sidelines, Mourinho and Pearson were watching the game.
Mourinho was full of confidence, and he had no doubt that his team could win.
Pearson, on the other hand, seemed a little nervous.
He frowned and kept staring at the direction of the pitch.
Mourinho's assistant whispered a few words in his ear, and then pointed at Pearson on the sidelines.
Mourinho smiled.
At the end of the day, he was a coach from the Championship, so it was inevitable that he was a little nervous.
But it was just the start, what was there to be nervous about?
But soon, he knew why...
The referee whistles and the game began!

"He is still controlling the ball in place, and Chelsea's defense begins to tilt towards the right side!
"Mahrez half turnes, and it seemes that he is going to pass it back...
"A long pass!
"He passes the ball directly to the left side!
"The ball is passed to Xia's feet!

"This game was considered one-sided by many fans.
"But they didn't expect that the first goal would be scored by the team they didn't favour!
"Leicester City scored first, this game is going to be interesting!"
On tthe pitch, the Leicester City players cheered excitedly!
Vardy was surrounded by his teammates and who began to pile up on him inhumanely.
Vardy was heard shouting from below.
"Be gentle!"
"You're killing me!"
"Can't you come one by one!"
"With so many people coming, I can't handle it!"
"Ah!!! "
Leicester City players enjoyed it and trampled on Vardy who scored the goal.
On the sidelines, Pearson punched hard!
So damn nice!
Shakespeare next to him also jumped a few times with excitement!
"Just now in the locker room, Xia and Mahrez discussed wanting to rush the start. I thought it was a bit hasty at the time. Now it seems that I was conservative! These little guys are awesome!"
Pearson finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was very nervous when the game just started.
He knew very well that this kind of behavior of rushing an attacking start at the beginning was very risky.
Once the opponent counterattacked, the possibility of losing the ball was very high.
But Pearson still agreed.
He thought the success rate was not high, but it would be good to deter the opponent and make the opponent's attack less presumptuous.
He really didn't expect that the tactic of attacking at the opening was really successful!
The team is leading, So the next game becomes easier!
Listening to the cheers of the away fans, Mourinho frowned slightly in front of the home team coaching seat.
He really didn't expect such a start.
He knew that Leicester City was good at counterattacks.
But he didn't expect such a high efficiency of counterattacks.
This group of young people from the English Championship are really good.
Although they lost the ball, Mourinho was not panicked.
Why rush? There are still 90 minutes.
As a world-class coach, Mourinho has seen big battles. A goal lost at the beginning can't knock him down.
It is even more impossible to knock down Chelsea players.
After the restart, Chelsea quickly recovered.
After the goal loss, they were briefly surprised, but soon stabilized their emotions.
This is the mentality of a wealthy team.
The game resumed, and Chelsea still maintained the momentum of attacking.
The loss of the ball just now did not have much impact on them.
Anyway, today's tactics are also offensive.
Chelsea's midfielder controls the ball, and Lampard is in the back.
In this game, Lampard's position is relatively backward, and he gave more opportunities to the young players to advance.
Oscar rushed up to cooperate with the striker to create scoring opportunities.
And beside Lampard, Matic is his guard.
As one of Mourinho's favorite players, Matic has always been loved by the Portuguese.
His tough style of play and desperate style make him the iron gate of this Chelsea midfield.
Seeing Lampard in control of the ball, Andy King just rushed to steal the ball, and Lampard knocked the ball out.
Ashley Cole received the ball on the left!
As Chelsea's most active left-wing offensive line, Ashley Cole's offensive ability is obvious to all.
Sprinting with the ball, using speed to break through Mahrez's pressing!
Although Mahrez has strong offensive ability, his defensive level is average.
Ashley Cole knocked the ball horizontally!
Oscar passed the ball diagonally without stopping the ball!
The ball was passed to Hazard in the frontfield!
Hazard pulled the ball and passed Moore in front of him!
And then inserted with the ball diagonally into the penalty area and volleyed it!
The ball went straight towards the far corner of the goal!
Schmeichel flew to save the ball and punched it out with both fists!
Leicester City escaped!
But soon, Chelsea's attack came again!
This time from the right side!
Oscar cruised to the right and wanted to rush up along the side!
Xia Xing blocked in front and cut off the forward route!
No matter what method Oscar used, he couldn't get rid of this opponent!
He had to knock the ball sideways!
Lampard inserted from the back row to receive the ball !
He then Paused for a moment, waiting for his teammates to run...
Before releasing a Pass diagonally to the right front!
Schurrle received the ball steadily!
Facing De Laet's defense, he didn't go in anymore!
He decisively volleyed the ball on the penalty area line! The ball hit the outside of the net!
The Leicester City fans exclaimed, and when they saw that there was no goal, they calmed down a little.
Chelsea's attack continued.
This time Lampard drove the ball straight to the middle of the field from the backcourt!
Veteran Eto'o received the ball with his back to the goalkeeper in the penalty area!
Under Morgan's defense, Eto'o turned and shot!
The ball hit the goal post and flew out of the bottom line!
Just a little bit!
The Leicester City fans in the stands exclaimed again!
The continuous attacks made the Leicester City goal shaky!
Pearson on the side of the court was like a wooden sculpture, and he didn't move for a long time.
Shakespeare also rubbed his hands repeatedly.
"This opponent is really a world-class opponent..."
