Aiello's wonderful free kick less than two minutes into the game knocked on the door of Reading, making Hunter and Coppell, who had made bold remarks before the game, immediately feel ashamed, but fortunately the camera was not pointed at them at this time.
Otherwise it will be one of the highlights after the game.
Of course, it wasn’t just Reading’s Hunter and head coach Koppell who felt humiliated at this moment.
The faces of the Korean reporters in the press area of Medjeski Stadium also had a burning face, as if they had been slapped in the face.
Like, burning pain.
Before the game, South Korean player Seol Qi-hyun, who was considered to be the main force in the game, only appeared in the 18-man roster and was not expected to start the game.
As for the so-called East Asia Derby, it is even more impossible to talk about, plus Ai, who has been repeatedly slandered by them.
Lowe took advantage of a free kick less than two minutes into the game and knocked on Reading's door.
The Korean media, who were still aggressive before the game, completely shut their mouths at this moment.
The game restarted, and Reading wanted to take advantage of their home court to quickly equalize the score.
However, Chelsea, who had been coached by Mourinho for three seasons, could be easily defeated by a team of Reading's level.
For the goal?
The answer is naturally no.
As the game time passed, the eagerness of the Reading players was also reflected in their own actions.
I don’t know if Mourinho’s words at the regular press conference before the game were helpful.
The referee Webber on duty would give a warning whenever he saw a Reading player moving slightly too much, and when it came to threats, All actions that involve player safety are subject to a yellow card warning.
Therefore, in less than thirty minutes, the Reading team had already received three yellow cards.
So there is a situation where Reading players who play at home must play at home.
And their changes also allowed Chelsea players to find greater attacking space.
Aiello has proven from the past two official games that he is Chelsea's most threatening player, and this game is no exception.
Faced with Aiello's speed and skills, Reading scored three goals in the first 30 minutes.
Two of the yellow cards were used on him, so Reading's defensive players were particularly cautious in the face of Aiello's changing breakthrough skills.
But sometimes this is the case, the more careful you are, the easier it is to make mistakes.
In the 36th minute, Aiello broke through to the baseline on the left, and then suddenly passed an inverted triangle pass.
Currently, the player with the best ability to insert from behind in the world The strong Lampard moved just right and sent the football to the far corner of the goal with a push, which was beyond Hahnemann's reach.
The score on the big screen in the stadium instantly changed to 0:2, with the home team in front and the visiting team in back.
If Chelsea can score two goals in the first half, it will be difficult for Reading to equalize the score in the second half.
Sure enough, Chelsea consciously tightened its defense at the beginning of the second half and did not give Reading's goal much space to attack, because there was still a life-threatening battle four days later.
Regarding Chelsea's defense, the Reading team did not dare to invest too much force because they were afraid of Ai Luo's super individual combat ability.
Therefore, no one scored in the second half.
In the end, Chelsea played away from home 2: 0 defeated Reading at home.
It is worth mentioning that in another focus battle at the same time, the defending champion Manchester United faced Portsmouth, one of the favorites for relegation this season, and did not seem to have a good way to score in the away game.
In the end, they drew 1:1 with the home team. , and the team's offensive core Cristiano Ronaldo was sent off with a direct red card by the referee because he could not control his emotions before the end of the game.
In other words, the defending champion Manchester United, which has achieved two consecutive draws, is already four points behind Chelsea, which has achieved two consecutive victories.
However, Ferguson said in an interview with the media after the game: "The league is a long cycle.
We should not worry about not playing well in two or even three games at the beginning of the season, because we are Manchester United players who are still adjusting.
I believe that as the league progresses, our condition will get better and better.
We will use our results to tell everyone that Manchester United is still the strongest contender in the league."
Since Arsenal and Liverpool, the other strong contenders for the championship who won the first round, both have the first leg of the third round of the Champions League qualifying round, the second round of the league was postponed, which means that after two consecutive victories, Chelsea topped the list. .
After the second round of the league, what is surprising is that the Manchester City team played by Sun Hai ranked second with two consecutive wins.
After Manchester City's Chinese international Sun Hai missed the first round of the league due to injury, he played the entire game against Derby County in the second round and his performance throughout the game was remarkable.
Coupled with the outstanding performance of Charlton player Zheng Zhi in the English Championship, which helped the team win the league, this made the Korean media collectively lose face again.
Because Chelsea’s Aiello, Manchester City’s Son Hai and Charlton’s Zheng Zhi all performed well and helped the team win the league.
Among them, Manchester United’s Park Ji-sung, Tottenham’s Lee Young-pyo and Reading’s Seol Qi-hyun Except for Lee Young-pyo who got stable playing opportunities, Park Ji-sung and Seol Qi-hyun did not have many playing opportunities in the first two rounds of the league.
What’s interesting is that a report in the Guardian the next day made the Korean media dumbfounded: “According to the first two rounds of surveys in the league, a very interesting situation was discovered, that is, the Premier League teams with Korean players have no winning record, while those with Chinese players It is a mysterious thing for a player's team to all win the game, but sometimes we have to come together, just like some coaches are superstitious about dressing up."

After the second round of the league ended, the London media and the Liverpool media simultaneously began to prepare for the start of the next league.
The Times gave the next game a title that was very consistent with the specifications of the game: Red and blue battle, who will win?
That's right, in the third round of the 2007-2008 Premier League season, there was a league match that the whole of Europe was watching: Chelsea vs.
Liverpool.
The two teams will start the first leg of the new season at Anfield.
Of course, the local media in Manchester also started to report thunderously at this moment, but what they focused on was not the focus of the battle between Chelsea and Liverpool, but their own Manchester derby.
Compared to the Manchester derby, which has a huge disparity in strength, it is the evenly matched match between Liverpool and Chelsea at home that attracts more public attention.
Liverpool is one of the most successful clubs in the world, having won a total of 18 English top league championships, 7 English FA Cup championships, and 8 English League Cup championships.
In the European arena, Liverpool is the most successful club in England, with 5 The European Champions Cup and the UEFA Cup three times set English records.
It is worth mentioning that except for the top league and the English FA Cup, all other records are the highest in the English league.
They completely dominated the top league in England from the 1960s to the 1980s.
It can be said that they have all the glory in history.
Imprinted on the red badge.
Since Chelsea was acquired by Russian tycoon Abramovich in 2003, rubles have been everywhere to buy powerful players and stars, and they have used gold dollars to win two Premier League championships.
Therefore, the local media in Liverpool look down on Chelsea, thinking that they are nouveau riche, they reek of copper, which is disgusting, and they have no rich background at all.
The pro-Chelsea London media believes that Liverpool is unwilling to make progress and is completely out of touch with the international community.
This is the fundamental reason why Liverpool has not won the Premier League championship since the establishment of the Premier League.
The media from both sides dislike each other, and the two teams naturally dislike each other.
As for the hatred between Liverpool and Chelsea, it started in the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League in the 2004-2005 season, and the two teams were drawn together in the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 2005-2006 season for special reasons.
Of course, the biggest reason is that Liverpool led by Benitez has the title of king of cup competitions.
Chelsea coached by Mourinho will basically be killed when they encounter Liverpool in cup competitions, but they can easily win against their opponents in the league.
Therefore Mourinho is very unhappy with Benitez.
Naturally, the two of them despised each other at the same time.
In addition, Valencia, where Aiello played for last season, defeated Liverpool in the semi-finals and disrespected the plaque of the sacred Anfield stadium, so the local media in Liverpool naturally combined old and new hatreds.
"This weekend will usher in the first strong dialogue since the start of the 2007-2008 Premier League season.
Yes, the Red Army Liverpool will face the Blue Army Chelsea at Anfield Stadium, and this contest is also the absolute focus of this round.
Liverpool and Chelsea this season.
All have strong reinforcements, including Chelsea’s signings Astonishingly, 60 million pounds was spent to introduce last season's La Liga triple crown Valencia star Ai, and Liverpool was not far behind.
They bought Atletico Madrid captain Torres for 21.5 million pounds, a club record for Luis Garcia, and then They also introduced Dutch super star Babel for more than 10 million pounds."
Originally, Aiello wanted to slowly train with the team and then fully integrate into the team's tactical system, but he did not expect to be dragged into it by the media.
Fernando Torres, who recently joined Liverpool and has performed well, was at the Melwood training base.
When being interviewed by reporters, he also took the initiative to talk about Ai Luo, which made him very speechless.
"Ai is a very good player, and we have a very good relationship.
His teammates often talked about him during the national team training.
We played against each other for two and a half seasons in La Liga, and we even exchanged jerseys at that time.
But this game It was played at Anfield, our home stadium, and I firmly believe that the victory must belong to us, Liverpool."
Listening to the words of the 23-year-old Spanish international, the local media in Liverpool were very satisfied.
In their minds, Liverpool's players are the best.
At the same time, before the game starts, you should also overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum.
Just a nouveau riche, a piece of cake Aiello is Chelsea's all-time top scorer, while Torres is Liverpool's all-time top scorer.
The Times, an influential English newspaper in Europe, titled this game "The Battle between Red and Blue, Who Will Win?"
and focused on Aiello and Torres, the two stars who moved from La Liga to the Premier League, giving this game another attraction.
Title: "The Battle for the King":
