Chapter 555 Fake Chinese Derby
When the referee Dean blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Chelsea players fell on the turf out of breath, panting heavily, and it was clear that they had put their lives to the test in this game!
But their faces were filled with satisfied smiles.
You must know that Chelsea equalized the score with one less player. It is very satisfying to be able to grab a point at Old Trafford, and it is an invisible enhancement to the morale of the team.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney walked towards Aiello slowly, ready to make a statement, but at this moment, the broadcast at Old Trafford suddenly announced: "The best player of the game is from... Chelsea's Ai!"
Aiello turned around to thank the Chelsea fans who came to the scene, but just in time to see Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney coming side by side, he grinned and walked over.
"Fuck, you bastard, you're stealing my limelight again!" Cristiano Ronaldo punched Aiello directly in the chest.
"Hey..." Ai Luo took a side step in a calm manner, avoiding Cristiano's 'attack', and said with a smile, "Don't forget to promise me..."
"How big is it? Afraid I'll miss you??"
"Brother Shui, what did you promise?" Rooney was confused.
"The adults talk, and the children go..." Aiello and Cristiano Ronaldo said in unison.
"Cut..." Rooney rolled his eyes, "Isn't it just going to PC? Two worthless guys!"
……
But in the end it didn't work out, because two days later they had to play a third-round knockout match of the League Cup at home, so the Chelsea team took a flight back to London after having dinner at the hotel that night.
※※※
The next day, newspapers across England compared Aiello to Cristiano Ronaldo.
Who is stronger?
This is all without a concept, because Chelsea's two goals were directly scored by Aiello, and Manchester United's two goals are also directly related to Cristiano Ronaldo, scoring one goal and assisting one goal.
But strictly speaking, Aiello still has the upper hand. After all, he scored both goals by himself, which is more difficult than one goal and one assist. In addition, Manchester United's defense is one of the best in Europe, especially when Vidic and Evra are gradually able to provoke the mainstay. Except for the lack of ability of the right back, the strength of the entire defense is still very impressive.
Chelsea have the same problem as Manchester United. The right-back Paulo Ferreira, who followed Mourinho to win the European Champions Cup, is no longer as brave as he was then, and his state has declined very obviously.
But a good right back is still hard to find in the current world football.
Since both of them opened gaps on the no longer reliable right back, it can be seen that the heroes of the two teams are also close, but is this really the case?
"In a focus match at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, Manchester United had a 2-3 draw against Chelsea at home. The offensive cores of both teams acted as the saviors of each team. First, Ai used a free kick in the 2rd minute of the game to help the visiting team open the scoring. When everyone thought the game was about to be won by the home team 1:[-], Ai stood up at this time, used a clever man-ball to pass through the crotch, and then directly shot a long-range shot without adjusting.
Daily Mirror headlines.
"...The offensive cores of the two teams have performed extraordinary in this focus battle. They respectively dominated the four goals scored by the two teams, and they still played like this in the strong dialogue. Therefore, it can be seen from the side that the two have become important weapons in their respective teams. If there is no accident, the Premier League championship this season will likely be between Manchester United and Chelsea. The final championship depends on the continuation of the status of the two in their respective teams..."
The Times, a newspaper in London that tends to favor Chelsea, also reported on the game, but they were more inclined to the problems that Chelsea had in this game: "Although Chelsea scored a point in the away game, Chelsea's defensive problems still need to be resolved. Ferreira is no longer suitable for this Chelsea, which has the dream of winning the Champions League. The game against Manchester United's Cristiano Ronaldo is wide open. Then the super-strikes of other giants teams will also have such problems..."
Of course, when criticizing Chelsea's defense, he also praised Aiello, who won back a point for the team: "Counting the two goals in this game, Ai, who moved to Chelsea before the start of the new season, has scored a full nine goals in the Premier League this season, topping the scorer list.

Three days later, Chelsea started the new season's League Cup at home at Stamford Bridge. Because they are the defending champions, they started playing in the third round. Their opponent was Bolton.
Chelsea did not send a main lineup in this game, but a starting lineup composed of youth team players, substitute players and individual main players. In the first half, Bolton led the home team Chelsea 1-0, but 10 minutes into the second half, Mourinho began to dispatch troops. He sent Aiello, Ballack and Didier Drogba one after another.
Another three days later, Chelsea ushered in their opponents Fulham in the eighth round of the league at home. This pair of former West London derby opponents is no longer what it used to be.
However, Mourinho needs to take into account the second round of this season's Champions League group stage at home in Eindhoven in the middle of next week. There is also a rotation in this league. In this week, Aiello, Ballack and Drogba who came off the bench in the League Cup appeared in the starting lineup and played against Fulham with a semi-main lineup.
But this lineup is enough to overwhelm Fulham. There is no difference between the team with Aiello and the main lineup. The battle was resolved in the first half.
First, Aiello used his breakthrough ability to assist Ballack to score Chelsea's first goal in the 8th minute, and then used his ability to score a goal in the penalty area to rewrite the score to 2:0.
In the end, the game also ended with this score. Chelsea continued to top the list with 8 wins and 7 tie in 1 rounds with 22 points.

After the end of the league, Chelsea's focus has also shifted from the league to the second round of the Champions League group stage. They will go to Eindhoven, the fourth largest industrial city in the Netherlands, to challenge PSV Eindhoven.
Although PSV Eindhoven has won three consecutive championships in the Eredivisie, and they also have a high chance of winning the Eredivisie in the 2007-2008 season, they are not very competitive in the Champions League.
The London media even couldn't wait to announce that Chelsea beat the home team PSV Eindhoven in the second round of the UEFA Champions League group match at the Philips Stadium.
However, before the game, Koeman, the head coach of PSV Eindhoven, did not admit that the game had been sentenced to death in advance, and they strived to win their first victory at home.
What's interesting is that when Mourinho set off for Eindhoven, in an interview with reporters, he expressed the strength of PSV Eindhoven, and he could not underestimate any opponent, especially the Champions League, otherwise he would be swallowed by the opponent without even bones left.
Many media agree with Mourinho's caution. The opponents in the Champions League are not simple, otherwise it cannot be called the most exciting event on earth.
When Chelsea arrived in Eindhoven and just arrived at the exit gate, Aiello was surrounded by a large number of Chinese reporters, and the topics he asked made him quite speechless...
"What do you think of this so-called 'China Derby' of the Champions League in China?"
"Sun Xiang is a left back, and you often appear on the right side of the attack, which means that you may have a direct dialogue. Will you give the international Sun Xiang face?"
"This is your third season of the UEFA Champions League. In the past two seasons, you have played well in the first game, but this season you have failed in the first game. What kind of mentality will you use to treat this game?"
……
Facing domestic reporters, although Ai Luo himself felt quite speechless, he still answered patiently, looking very close to the people.
……
PSV Eindhoven's home game against Chelsea is on matchday two of the second round of the Champions League group stage, at 08:30 on Wednesday night.
Facts have proved that this so-called "Chinese derby" in the Champions League at the Philips Stadium was nothing more than wishful thinking by the Chinese media. Sun Xiang spent the entire game on the bench, while Aiello scored twice in the first half and scored another goal in the second half. He personally scored three of the team's four goals, helping Chelsea beat PSV Eindhoven 4-0 away and won their first victory in the UEFA Champions League this season.
Although the Chinese 'Champions League Derby' that attracted the attention of Chinese fans and media did not happen, Aiello went to PSV Eindhoven's bench after the game to find Chinese international Sun Xiang.
Since this was the first communication between the two, the older Sun Xiang seemed a little abrupt. In his impression, a player like Ai Luo who has been promoted to the top football star in the world would not take care of himself too much, but in fact... He is very amiable, and he respects the big brothers in China.
