Chapter 674: It’S West Ham United’S Turn To Attack! Anau Continues To Header!
🕑 Added 2025-04-15 10:04:07 +0000 UTCThere’s no doubt that Joe Hart’s brilliant save boosted the confidence of the West Ham United players.
In the following minutes,
West Ham United began looking for offensive opportunities.
It was clear—they didn’t want to lose the match just like that.
As the team’s head coach,
David Moyes was visibly excited.
He could feel it.
The West Ham players had regained their morale. If they pushed just a little harder, they might be able to break through Chelsea’s defense.
During this period,
Chelsea started defending more proactively—just as coach Conte had instructed.
As an experienced manager,
Conte quickly realized the gravity of the situation.
He knew very well that West Ham United had found their rhythm. Based on Chelsea’s current condition, it would be unwise to face them head-on.
The most important thing now was to focus on the defensive end and stabilize the back line.
Unfortunately—
Chelsea’s defense was still a step too slow.
Three minutes later,
West Ham United launched an attack that truly threatened Chelsea’s goal.
In the center of midfield,
Zabaleta delivered a sharp pass to Joao Mario.
Joao Mario had been in good form tonight.
Not only had he been active in his defensive runs,
but he also contributed significantly to West Ham's offense.
Now—
After receiving the ball, Joao Mario immediately displayed his impressive attacking skills.
Despite being pressured by both Fabregas and Kante,
Joao Mario used quick changes in rhythm and continuous step-over techniques to break past Fabregas on the right.
The whole sequence happened in a flash.
But just as Joao Mario was about to surge forward—
Chelsea’s star player Su Luo suddenly appeared in front of him.
It was clear that West Ham United were pressing hard during this phase.
So Su Luo had dropped deep to help in defense.
And this time, Su Luo succeeded.
Using his superior physical strength,
he managed to hold off Joao Mario, who was ready to accelerate.
Just as Su Luo was about to steal the ball,
Joao Mario showed great awareness.
In the blink of an eye—!!
He passed the ball to Edimilson Fernandes on the left wing.
At that moment,
Edimilson Fernandes began to show his attacking flair.
After receiving the ball, he didn’t hesitate.
Instead, he sprinted with everything he had.
Undeniably, this player was lightning-fast.
In the blink of an eye,
Edimilson Fernandes was already near the byline.
The defender tasked with stopping him was Rudiger.
Despite being tall and strong, Rudiger lacked the pace! (Ji Jiqi)
In this one-on-one situation,
Edimilson Fernandes used a sudden burst of speed.
In an instant,
he successfully shook off Rudiger’s pressure.
Just as the ball was about to roll out of play near the byline,
Edimilson Fernandes delivered a perfect cross.
The ball curved beautifully through the air—
landing right on Anautovic’s head.
There was no doubt—
It was a golden opportunity for Anautovic to score with a header...
