Chapter 167 The Great Victory
But for Newcastle, the calm in front of them is the calm before the storm designed by Mourinho. The slow-paced game slowly made Newcastle relax their vigilance, while Chelsea slowly showed their fangs in places that Newcastle could not see.

In the 19th minute of the game, Robben, Chen Xiao and Thiago in the frontcourt suddenly stepped forward and tried to steal the opponent's kick. This immediately disrupted the opponent's passing coordination. In the panic, Newcastle's central defender Ramaji made a big-footed clearance and passed the ball directly to Lampard's feet near the center circle.

Faced with such an opportunity, how could Chelsea miss it? After holding the ball steadily, Lampard and Thiago directly hit the wall with a two-for-one and directly threw away Emre, who was trying to steal. Newcastle's defense has problems.

And at the critical moment, when Chen Xiao was still interspersed, he suddenly ran sideways and Thiago made a crossover, which made Newcastle's defense completely messed up. Lampard passed the Newcastle defense with a through ball before Ramaji stepped forward to intercept.

Chen Xiao, that is, Chen Xiao, formed a cross position with Thiago. Chen Xiao threw away Boumsong who was marking him, and Lampard's pass was exactly what he was looking for. Chen Xiao, who successfully broke through the crowd, got the ball easily, and then faced Ji Wen's defense, he pushed the ball accurately and sent it into the far corner of the goal.

After seeing the football rolled into the goal, Chen Xiao ran towards Mourinho immediately. As his first goal in the Premier League, Chen Xiao had to share it with Mourinho. It was Mourinho's appreciation that allowed him to quickly gain a foothold in Chelsea.

1-0, Chelsea used Chen Xiao's goal to take the lead at home in the 21st minute of the game.

When Chen Xiao and Mourinho embraced, many on-site media cameras also focused on the pair of master and apprentice, and the home fans also stood up and applauded this wonderful goal.

Newcastle's head coach Graeme Souness sat on the coach's bench holding his face in remorse. He knew he had been tricked. Chelsea's performance after the opening game was confusing himself. After ten minutes of the game, his players lost their vigilance.

The referee stopped the Chelsea players from celebrating and after his intervention, the game was restarted.

After the kick-off, the Newcastle players found that the Chelsea players who had been waiting slowly for them to turn their feet before, suddenly sped up the rhythm. The players in the frontcourt and midfield were pressing like crazy, which completely stunned Newcastle.The frontcourt was chaotic. Although Chelsea did not move their formation forward, the frenzied pressing of the frontcourt players and the accelerated passing speed forced Newcastle, who likes to play steadily, to speed up their pace, and the space was compressed. Very small.Such a fast pace is Mourinho's arrangement after leading, because as long as there is one piece, the inevitable mistakes will increase. This kind of backcourt mistakes is fatal to any team.

Sure enough, only 7 minutes after the first goal, the game progressed to the 29th minute. Chelsea, who were actively pressing, once again exposed the opponent's fatal flaw. Under the joint pressure of Chen Xiao and Thiago, Newcastle midfielder Solano made a mistake in returning the ball and was directly intercepted by Robben in the middle.Robben, who got the ball, accelerated and pushed forward along the wing. The Newcastle full-back Baba Yaluo, who had switched from defense to offense, was seriously ill-prepared to face Robben's impact, and was directly passed by Robben like a wooden stake.

Robben, who had been hitting the bottom line, suddenly stopped when he was about to reach the bottom line, causing Brambo, who was defending him, to lose his center of gravity. Afterwards, Robben even had time to look up and observe the positioning of his teammates, and then directly kicked a pass.

Thiago, who followed up at the previous point, feinted a shot, which caused Shayve to make a serious mistake in his judgment. Shevchenko in the middle directly shot a header, and the football was smashed into the goal like a cannonball.

2-0, Chelsea extended their lead on the field in the 31st minute of the game.

The two players who just joined the team this summer scored goals in their first league games, which is a good thing for the whole Chelsea team.

The Chelsea fans at the scene sang and danced in the stands to celebrate the team expanding their lead.

They are happy at this moment. For the fans, there is nothing that can compare to the team they support firmly suppressing their opponents at home, whether it is the score or the scene.

After the resumption of the game, the two-goal lead made Chelsea more comfortable on the scene, and the entire game rhythm Newcastle was firmly led by Chelsea's nose.

But for Chen Xiao and other Chelsea players, two goals are not enough.

The game is in the second half.

In the 59th minute, Thiago's breakthrough in the frontcourt was directly brought down by Newcastle's players. He took a direct free kick about 26 meters away from the goal. Chen Xiao will not waste such an opportunity again. He kicked the iconic round moon scimitar, which reminded the fans at the scene of the No. 7 player of his arch-rival team.

3 to 0, the victory has been firmly grasped by Chelsea in their own hands.

In the 74th minute of the game, after Chen Xiao made continuous breakthroughs from the wing, he found Robben in the back with a cross, and Robben volleyed from a small angle and hit again.

4 to 0, this ball is also the last goal of both Chelsea and Newcastle in this game.

In the end, Chelsea won the opening game of the new season with a score of 4-0 at home, taking all three points.

After the game, Chen Xiao was also elected the best player of the game with 2 goals and 1 assist, and got his first bottle of champagne in the Premier League. Chen Xiao did not choose to share this bottle of champagne with his teammates, but chose to take it home for collection. This is of great significance to Chen Xiao's career.
