Chapter 687: One Goal Lead In The First Half!
🕑 Added 2025-04-22 14:09:06 +0000 UTCHe wanted to compete with Chiellini—whether his defense was faster, or Su Luo's shot was faster.
As it turned out, the nickname had the last laugh.
His thunderous long-range shot was like a cannonball, tearing through the opponent's goal with unstoppable force.
3:2.
Chelsea, playing at home, once again took the lead.
After Su Luo scored,
the referee immediately blew the whistle to signal the end of the first half.
Overall,
Chelsea’s performance was quite solid.
Although Juventus had once equalized during the first half,
fortunately, Su Luo stepped up at the crucial moment.
Su Luo’s performance was beyond doubt.
Whether it was shooting, dribbling, or linking up the entire team’s attack,
Su Luo always found a way to step up and solve problems as soon as they appeared.
So, when the first half ended, tens of thousands of Chelsea fans in the Stamford Bridge stands were shouting Su Luo’s name hysterically.
Just from tonight’s performance—
Su Luo was the God of London.
Halftime.
Juventus head coach Allegri was furious.
He couldn’t accept that his defense had been broken through so easily by Su Luo.
It was a complete humiliation.
So, for the full 15-minute break, Allegri reworked his defensive strategy.
He demanded that every Juventus player give 120% when facing Su Luo’s breakthroughs.
The second half began.
Chelsea were the first to make a move.
On the flank,
the ball was passed to Hazard’s feet.
To be honest, based on his first-half performance, Hazard had not played well.
But now, as the second half began,
Chelsea’s "King of the Wing" was finally ready to show his true strength.
Hazard received a pass from Su Luo and chose to attack from the wing.
At first, Juventus didn’t defend Hazard very tightly.
After all, he’d been paddling in the first half—barely a threat.
The Juventus players had almost forgotten Hazard was even on the pitch.
So, even after he received the ball on the wing,
they didn’t pressure him right away.
But—
as Hazard quietly dribbled deep into their half,
the experienced Allegri immediately sensed danger.
He roared at the defenders on the field:
“What are you doing?! Hurry up and stop Hazard’s run!”
“Don’t give him any chance to shoot!”
“Defend! Defend! Get in position now!!”
Despite the Juventus coach’s shouting—
it was already too late.
Hazard didn’t give the defenders any chance to react.
Like a flash,
he slipped inside from the left flank with a perfectly timed cut.
Facing Benatia and Asamoah,
Hazard didn’t choose to shoot directly.
Instead, he feinted, then tapped the ball with finesse,
passing it sharply into the center—right to Cesc Fàbregas.
This sequence from Hazard completely threw Juventus' defense into disarray.
No one could keep up with him.
