Hoffenheim's goal pushed Chelsea into a dead end - then again, since the first round, did they not go on the dead end?

Now Chelsea not only needs to score goals, but also score more than two in order to offset away goals while also putting the total score ahead.

After a brief disappointment, Chelsea players launched a fierce attack on Hoffenheim. As before, frequent insertions on both sides were the feature of their offense.

Chu Zhongtian also immediately adjusted. In response to this, he frequently used his long passes to hit behind the two full-backs, which made Chelsea players feel very uncomfortable. The two full-backs wanted to push but dared not push up.

But no matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to fight at this time. Chelsea’s countermeasure is to put more pressure on Hoffenheim and prevent them from easily fighting back. If possible, it is best to make them unable to even get the half.

So Chelsea's offensive hit Hoffenheim's goal like a tide.

Chelsea also used this move at home. They scored two goals at that time, and Hoffenheim was in a very embarrassing position.

But this time it was different. After all, Hoffenheim returned to the home court, and this is the most familiar venue. As long as you step on it, you can gain immense confidence and courage. Coupled with the cheers of the home team fans in the stands, every sound can stimulate the fighting spirit of Hoffenheim players.

Chelsea encountered very serious resistance at home. Not only did they not suppress Hoffenheim, but they also made Hoffenheim's counterattack play so well. Several times it made Chelsea's goal dangerous. If Cech hadn't performed well, they would have been behind two goals long ago.

The difference between home and away games is so obvious.

In the 66th minute, during such a good time, Hoffenheim launched a counterattack again.

Lampard came up to press the ball when Chu Zhongtian just got the ball, pulling it on his hands and tripping it under his feet.

Chu Zhongtian relied on his body to suppress Lampard, and he was not afraid of any opponent in physical confrontation. After protecting the football, he quickly passed the football out.

After passing the ball, he ran forward as usual and was ready to respond at any time.

The one who received the ball was Sana next to him. This time Salihovic and Quaresmadura were relatively sidelined, so they did not pass it directly, and the risk of passing it over was very high.

Sana received the ball and led it forward, and Chu Zhongtian followed him. Sana faced Essin who came up to grab his ball and distributed the football to Chu Zhongtian.

Lampard has been following Chu Zhongtian. He knew that this man was the core of Hoffenheim. Any successful attack cannot be separated from him. As long as he can be frozen, Hoffenheim's attack will not be afraid.

He watched Sana pass the ball to Chu Zhongtian, and then rushed over, intending to intercept the ball when Chu Zhongtian received the ball.

Unexpectedly, Chu Zhongtian didn't stop the ball at all, so he directly knocked the ball to the side with his heel.

The full-back Serner, who was inserted in the back, received a pass from Chu Zhongtian, and a cheer broke out in the stands. This was the Hoffenheim fans cheering for Chu Zhongtian's wonderful performance. They like to watch Chu Zhongtian's exquisite passing art.

Barcelona has two midfield masters, Xavi and Iniesta, which makes many team fans and head coaches envious. Any of these two people is a core figure in other teams, but they are all in Barcelona. But Hoffenheim fans do not envy Barcelona, ​​because they are not at all lost to Xavi and Iniesta Chu Zhongtian.

The only active player who can be called "free men" is our Chu Zhongtian!

He passed the football to Serna with his heel. Chu Zhongtian did not stop, but continued to run forward, but this time he was closer to Serna and deliberately slowed down. He did not run in front of Serna, but followed Serna's hand.

Soon Serner dribbled forward and encountered resistance. He had to pass the ball back, and Chu Zhongtian happened to receive it.

Chu Zhongtian, who received the ball, did not continue to lead forward, but suddenly kicked his feet and passed the ball to the other side of the court. Because the attacks just now were on the left side of Chelsea and Hoffenheim on the right side, there was a blank area on the left side of Chelsea on the right side of Hoffenheim on the left side.

Chelsea full-back Ivanovic jumped high and wanted to push the ball out, but he had some deviation in his judgment, and the football flew over against his scalp.

Salihovic, who was behind him, received the football. He did not break through immediately, but slowly moved forward, attracting the attention of the Chelsea defenders.

Then when he successfully attracted two Chelsea players, he suddenly passed the football sideways. The person who received the ball was Chu Zhongtian who had just passed it to him!

At this time, Chu Zhongtian had moved from that side road.

His superb running ability and reading game ability ensure that he can pass through the court within seconds and reach the most critical position.

After passing the ball, Salihovic immediately cut in the diagonal line and ran into the penalty area. His run attracted the attention of Chelsea full-back Ivanovic and central defender Aless. Ivanovic immediately followed, and Aless also took a step back.

Chu Zhongtian did not pass the football over, but instead used his left foot to push the football sideways. He found that he had been deceived and rushed up and returned to his defense line.

Seeing that the football is still at Chu Zhongtian's feet, Chelsea's defenders are very conflicted. They are not willing to let Chu Zhongtian control the ball like this, but they dare not ask the above to grab it. What if the space behind them is used by the opponent? No one can guarantee that they can break the football off before the opponent passes the ball. This is unsure, and doing such a thing requires betting.

But Chelsea are a little unbearable now. They have already lost a goal. If they lose a goal, the game will be completely finished... The central defenders dare not come up, of course, only the midfielder will come to grab the ball. Chu Zhongtian made a move to shoot, forcing Essin, who came up to grab the ball, to block the shot. As a result, this was a fake shot, but the left foot fell but did nothing. Chu Zhongtian immediately pushed the ball away with his right foot. When Essin found out that he had been deceived, he could no longer catch up with Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian took the football from the right side of the Chelsea penalty area to the middle, and made several fake moves and passed several defensive players. No one knows what he was going to do so far.

However, Hoffenheim players were still cooperating with their captain, constantly running and making various counter-attacks in front of Chelsea's goal. Salihovic stepped diagonally on the side and ran back and made a counter-attack near the sideline. Quaresma firmly suppressed full-back Ashley Cole on the other side, making him afraid to easily reclaim the inside.

At the same time, Ibisevic and Van Nistruei withstood the two central defenders and looked like they had to catch the ball at any time, which also led to Chelsea's central defenders not daring to push up.

Essin was shaken by, so it was Mikel's turn.

At the same time, Lampard also chased after him from behind and waited for an opportunity to intercept the ball.

Mikel did not come up to intercept the ball, but instead stood in front of Chu Zhongtian and made a blocking gesture. If he wanted to pass the ball, he could block his forward pass route. If he wanted to break through, he would be a wall in front of him. As long as the midfielder defense stood at his position and forced the opponent to pass the football back or transfer it to the side, the defense in the middle was successful.

Besides, there is another Lampard behind Chu Zhongtian. If you leave the ball to him, don’t go up, so he won’t take the opportunity to pass both of them.

Lampard rushed up from behind and hit Chu Zhongtian, hoping to make him lose control of the football, but he didn't expect that he didn't knock Chu Zhongtian down at all, nor did he lose control of the football.

It caused Mikel to suddenly rob!

When Mikel saw Lampard crashing into Chu Zhongtian, he thought that no matter whether he could succeed or not, this was his only chance to intercept the ball!

He ran forward and stretched out his feet to poke the ball.

Unexpectedly, Chu Zhongtian's movements were faster than him. He gently poked the football with his toes, which made Mikel's feet empty.

Then Chu Zhongtian was injured and gently pushed Mikel to the ground, and although he did not completely avoid Lampard's back, he just staggered, but the center of gravity did not fall. He jumped up and over the two people who fell to the ground and caught up with the football.

"oh!!"

The commentator saw Chu Zhongtian suddenly exerting force and Mikel and Lampard shouting suddenly. What did they have premonitions... There was also Chelsea captain John Terry. He threw down Van Nistruy who had been pestering him and rushed up with great strides.

How could Chu Zhongtian wait until he comes to disturb him?

He caught up with the football with his left foot, stepped beside him, and then he swung his right foot and shot from the top of the penalty area!

Cech almost flew sideways while Chu Zhongtian shot, stretched out his arms and rushed towards the football.

He did jump to the football, he felt his fingertips touching the football, but the feeling was fleeting, and before he could land, he heard the huge cheer from the Hoffenheim fans behind him.

“2:0!!”

“chuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu—goooooooooooal!!!”

"Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic goal!! He teased Chelsea's entire defense line, he shot, he scored!!"

After the shot, Chu Zhongtian collided with Terry who rushed up to block the goal. Chu Zhongtian stretched his hands and pushed Terry away, hugged the balance, and then rushed to the home team fans behind the Chelsea goal.

"This is Chu Zhongtian's eighth goal in this Champions League! He now surpasses Messi and tied for the top scorer list with Etoo, both of them scored eight goals! However, Inter Milan where Etoo is located has stopped in the quarterfinals. In other words, as long as Chu Zhongtian scores continuously, he is likely to win the best scorer in the Champions League!!" He Ping was very excited when he said this - the Champions League Golden Boot Award will be won by a Chinese player, which is unprecedented!

In fact, it is not only Chu Zhongtian ranked first in the scorer list, but he also ranked first with six assists in the assist list. Behind him are Lennon who plays for Tottenham Hotspur and Carlos Martins who plays for Benfica, both of whom are five times. However, the teams where these two people are both eliminated and cannot pose a threat to Chu Zhongtian's status. The only one who survives on the assist list is Ozil who works for Real Madrid, who has four assists.

The atmosphere at Rhine Neka Stadium was completely ignited at the moment when Chu Zhongtian scored. When Van Nistrui scored, the atmosphere was not so warm because the fans were still worried that it was not safe to lead with one goal. But after Chu Zhongtian scored, everyone's nervousness was relieved. They knew that this game could not be run.

Hoffenheim fans in the stands began to cheer collectively: "Fourth!Fourth! Let's go to the semi-finals!!"

What directed them to cheer with rhythm was Chu Zhongtian's arms that kept waving below.

Every time he waved, the shouts of "Fourths!" sounded from above, until he was completely drowned by his teammates who were swarming in, and those shouts turned into cheers and applause.

"Hoffenheim leads Chelsea with a total score of 4:2! It is not easy to lose the game at their home court! Does Chelsea still have hope?!"

"Chelsea is finished! They are two goals behind the score, and the opponent has two away goals..."

But the English commentator doesn't think so: "As long as Chelsea can equalize the score, they can drag the game into overtime. By then Hoffenheim will definitely be affected by the equalization of the score and cannot perform normally. Then Chelsea's hope of winning is very high!"

With twenty-four minutes of regular game time left, three more minutes of injury stoppage time, there are twenty-seven minutes left, and nearly half an hour, it is still possible to score two goals.

The problem is that he did not consider it, or automatically blocked Hoffenheim's offensive ability. Since they have the ability to score two goals at their home court, what is the difference between two goals and three goals?

Chelsea suddenly had the ability to score two goals in a row, but while they were pressing the attack, they also exposed all the loopholes in the defense line to Hoffenheim, or to Chu Zhongtian. You should know that Chu Zhongtian is a midfield organizer who is very good at seizing opportunities and taking advantage of opportunities.

So of course Chelsea can score goals, but they can't stop Hoffenheim from scoring.

Chelsea players all know how far this game has reached. Of course they don’t want to give up, they still want to fight for it, although the hope is extremely slim.

Ancelotti quickly called Jerkov on the bench and asked him to warm up. At this time, in this case, he had to change to the striker and give a try.

※※※Rangnick almost fell to the ground excitedly when he saw Chu Zhongtian shoot the football into Chelsea's goal. Fortunately, the assistant coach next to him held him and did not make a fool of himself. But this did not affect his mood. He clenched his fists and shouted at Caidler: "We are going to Wembley!!"

This "professor" who usually looks gentle can't help but swear. Although Wembley is still two semi-finals away, Rangnick has only considered the finals.

What he has never dared to think about in his coaching Hoffenheim for so many years is becoming a reality step by step. How can he not be excited?

At the beginning, Hoffenheim was just a small rural team that hangs out in the German amateur league. He used the home court of 5,000 people, the training base and the bullpen to accompany him. When he came here, did he expect that today?

Hope in the stands also had his eyes wet. He wiped his wet corners, then continued to hold up his scarf and sang with the people around him: "We come from the countryside, we have nothing! We are extremely strong, we advocate freedom! We are country bumpkins, but we are full of pursuits! We will eventually win, the cup is full of beer! Attack!! The blood of the offensive will always flow! We - is - Hoffenheim! Let you taste - our football!!"

After singing, he clapped and cheered with the fans.

The Rhine-Neca Stadium, which can only accommodate 30,000 people, was completely in full bloom. English fans were famous for being able to create an atmosphere on the scene, but their voices are completely drowned.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian and his teammates celebrated the goal and ran back to his half. He had not forgotten to continue inciting the fans to get up and cheer. He waved his arms while running, and the fans in the stands responded to his movements and shouted.

This scene made the reporters present marvel.

"Chu Zhongtian is simply the king of Rhine-Neka Arena!" He Ping said excitedly. "He is the commander-in-chief of the world's most crowded choir. 30,000 fans only listen to him!"

※※※After the game restarted, the cheers at the scene became smaller little by little. After all, the game was nearly thirty minutes away, so it was too early to celebrate the victory now.

Hoffenheim fans suppressed their ecstasy and waited for the game to end in a few seconds.

Chelsea launched a crazy counterattack, and they didn't care about how many loopholes there were.

Chu Zhongtian didn't go up, just in the backcourt. As long as the ball was cut and handed over to him, he would pass it directly on the spot, with one shot and one accurate one.

Just like the precise guided missile on the destroyer, it doesn't have to move at all, and just sends the football to the opponent's space. Some of the balls can be caught by their own teammates, while others cannot be caught. But it doesn't matter, it basically poses a very big threat to catch them. Cech has saved Hoffenheim twice and has shot one-on-one balls.

But Chelsea did not mean to retreat. At this time, it was a joke. As long as you work harder, you might be able to score a goal.

Chu Zhongtian didn't go up in the backcourt and only relied on long passes to launch a counterattack because he needed to invest more in defense.

Hoffenheim scored a goal in the last round and held a score of 2:2. That was because after Chu Zhongtian scored, but that time was because Chu Zhongtian scored, leaving only ten minutes for Chelsea. This time Chelsea has nearly thirty minutes left. Can they hold on?

Chu Zhongtian used his behavior of colliding with Lampard directly and the two of them collapsed to the ground at the same time to tell everyone that they have the confidence to keep it!
Chapter completed!
