The fans on the scene have been waiting for it for a long time.

The halftime break was only fifteen minutes, but for most fans, five minutes was enough to solve everything, waiting in their seats for the game to begin.

Finally, the players of both teams reappeared on the court.

As time passed, the referee team also walked out of the temporary lounge. The referee walked to the center circle position, signaling the players of the two teams to stand in place, and kept looking at the watch. When the second hand pointed to the twelve, he blew the whistle to restart the game.

The second half begins.

When the football came out, Chelsea pressed again, maintaining the suppression of Millsburg's halftime. Every player was serious in the offense to find opportunities to break through the Middlesbrough defense.

Middlesbrough thought Chelsea's offense would be more restrained in the second half. After all, Chelsea was the lead and it was the Riverside Stadium. But in fact, Chelsea did not do this. They still maintained the offensive intensity and did not give Middlesbrough a chance to breathe.

Zhang Tiehan is still attacking on the wing, and his dribbling, passing and outspread have always been the focus of the whole game, even now.

However, Zhang Tiehan's playing style has changed a bit, and he is trying to keep cutting inward to find an opportunity to shoot.

In the position of the wing forward, he has more opportunities to get the ball, but most of the time, he does not have a direct shot. If he breaks through to the bottom line, his only option is to pass the ball, but if he has the chance to cut in the middle, he can make a cold shot.

This is his idea.

Compared to his teammates, Zhang Tiehan still believes in his shot more.

But Zhang Tiehan did not do well after two times. He found a chance to shoot twice in a row. The first time he was not in good position, he couldn't play the force, and the second time he was directly wrong.

However, Zhang Tiehan was not discouraged, he had already found some feelings.

This time, it was still dribbling the ball from the side. After shaking the opponent's player with a horizontal dock, between two and three steps, Zhang Tiehan ran horizontally along the penalty area line. The Middlesbrough player failed to keep up at the first time. As a result, Zhang Tiehan thought of what Robben said, "I have to shoot at the first time," and immediately took a kick to the goal.

He shot while driving the ball quickly, so the football rotated very well when it flew towards the goal. It was difficult for goalkeeper Schwarzer to judge the direction of the football. It was a pity that the shot deviated from the post and flew out of the baseline, which attracted a pity from Chelsea fans.

Once again, Zhang Tiehan started again.

The same dribble, the same shot. The Middlesbrough players still couldn't keep up. After these few times, Zhang Tiehan found that the sudden horizontal dribble was indeed easy to throw away the opponent, turn 90 degrees to dribble the ball, and then turn 90 degrees to shoot. In this way, it will be difficult for the opponent's defensive players to keep up with his movements even if they predict in advance.

This time he found another shot.

Unfortunately, the ball was kicked very well, and the football plunged into goalkeeper Schwarg's arms. Zhang Tiehan could only sigh and shake his head. In such a fast dribbling, it was very difficult to shoot the ball to a dead corner, and the position and direction of each shot would not be exactly the same. Even he had difficulty grasping the strength. If he really did what Robben did, he needed more practice.

...

Although Zhang Tiehan felt that these two times were a waste of opportunities, others did not think so.

The standards of both sides are different.

In Zhang Tiehan's opinion, as long as he doesn't score a goal, it's a waste of opportunities, but others think it's good to create a threat. Zhang Tiehan shot twice, once he flew to the bottom line while rubbing the post, and once he plunged into the goalkeeper's arms. Whether it was the former or the latter, it posed a great threat to the Middlesbrough goal.

Two shots made Middlesbrough sweat from the top and bottom.

They didn't expect that Zhang Tiehan would cut in and shoot in continuously. More importantly, they found it difficult to limit Zhang Tiehan to do so.

He dribbled the ball directly at a 90-degree angle. Zhang Tiehan relied on his speed, body and technology. His advantages in this aspect were too obvious. Because his body was quite flexible, his dribbling skills were also very good. Even if two people followed him, he could still cut into the center line and then shoot.

This is almost a threat to yourself, and you can score a goal as long as you are lucky.

Middlesbrough's defense was a little panicked. Middlesbrough players who were responsible for paying attention to Zhang Tiehan's defense failed to have much impact on Zhang Tiehan for several consecutive times. This made other Middlesbrough players complain a few times. In any case, Zhang Tiehan let go of dribbling and shooting like this, which poses too great a threat to the team.

But in fact, they don’t have many ways to deal with Zhang Tiehan.

Others also know that this is not a defensive problem, it is entirely because Zhang Tiehan's personal ability is too outstanding, and they were unable to block the penalty area line at the first time. However, after all, the penalty area line is very long, and it is unlikely to completely block it. Zhang Tiehan's speed is very fast. They want to completely defend unless more than a dozen people are standing on the penalty area line, there will always be gaps between three and four players.

This is what Middlesbrough players have no choice.

They remembered what head coach Southgate said in the locker room during the halftime break. At that time, Southgate said that the opponent's two goals were all based on Zhang Tiehan's personal ability and outstanding performance. He could not maintain this performance throughout the game. But now they found that what the coach said was not necessarily correct. At least Zhang Tiehan is very capable of threatening Middlesbrough players - just using ordinary performance!

This is not a flash of inspiration. It is such a big threat. If it is a flash of inspiration, they will definitely not be able to defend themselves.

And the "light of inspiration" seems very simple for this guy. As long as the football shoots more tricky, it will almost certainly be a goal.

Middlesbrough was kicked a little unconfident.

They don’t know how to survive the next half hour. Now, let alone attacking to tie the score, it’s good to try to defend the goal. They dare not fight, but there is still a lot of time for the game, and it’s not time to fight hard yet.
