However, Mourinho's trouble is far from over.

As a passive defensive player, the physical consumption is much greater than that of Crystal Palace, which is actively attacking.

Especially when the game is over, this is becoming more and more obvious.

Less than ten minutes after Crystal Palace equalized the score, Ronaldo dribbled the ball on the left and broke through and passed Baptista and Salgado in succession. Gago, who rushed back to make up for defense, was knocked to the ground and won.

A free kick in the frontcourt.

Although the foul was close to the left line and far and far from Real Madrid's goal, Ronaldo still made sufficient preparations and shot directly with a heavy gun.

The ball drew a graceful arc and quickly turned towards the upper left corner of Real Madrid goal.

Seeing the direction of the ball flying, Casillas quickly moved his footsteps and rushed towards the left post.

But what Casillas did not expect was that the ball suddenly fell when it flew to the middle of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Crystal Palace's high center forward Tony jumped high at this time and grabbed the ball in front of Metzeld.

It was this that the ball immediately changed the direction of the ball flying. The ball that was originally flying to the upper left corner of the Real Madrid goal flew directly into the center of the goal.

At this time, Casillas had already flew out to the left. When he found that the ball changed direction, he was powerless and could only watch the ball fly into the goal he guarded.

“GOAL!”

With Tony's header, Crystal Palace scored two goals in a row within ten minutes, surpassing Real Madrid 2:1.

“Fxxxk!”

On the sidelines, Mourinho, who saw Crystal Palace overtake the score, couldn't help but swear.

He has already set up a bus, but he still can't defend against Crystal Palace's goal. Their personal abilities are really too strong.

Mourinho scratched his head a little. He wanted to strengthen his defense and protect the fruits of victory, but he didn't expect that he could not defend it in the end.

Now the score is behind, should we continue to defend or press forward to the offense again?

For a moment, Mourinho hesitated a little.

Real Madrid's substitution quota has been used up, and the game has entered the end, with little physical fitness left.

With the existing players on the field, Mourinho is really unsure whether he can achieve results.

But he is sure that once the attack is under pressure, Real Madrid's defense loopholes will be exposed more.

Players with reduced physical fitness cannot change defenses and make up defenses in time like they did in the first half, which is likely to allow those forwards of Crystal Palace to seize the opportunity to score again.

After all, it is a knockout match in two rounds. If you only lose one goal, Real Madrid may have a chance of a reversal in the second round.

But if he was two goals behind, Mourinho himself would not be sure to go to Crystal Palace to perform the Yinstanbul miracle.

However, Real Madrid fans will not think so much like Mourinho.

Seeing that the team was behind, but head coach Mourinho did not move for a long time, the players on Real Madrid were still huddled in their half to defend.

Suddenly, more than 80,000 Real Madrid fans at the entire Bernabeu stadium exploded again.

The even more violent booing echoed throughout the court again and soared into the sky.

This time, even Chen Ran felt a little sympathetic to Mourinho. Real Madrid's head coach is really hard to do.

In the end, Mourinho still stood firm and did not change the formation. With all his strength in defense, Crystal Palace made a 2:1 reversal at the Bernabeu Stadium.

While getting the initiative in the battle for the semi-finals, Chen Ran also got a "first-level blood recovery card" from the system.

......

"Haha, this Mourinho is too miserable, right? It's really rare to be booed by fans at his home court."

The match between Crystal Palace and Real Madrid, two Champions League strong teams, naturally attracted the attention of countless fans.

The Crystal Palace fans, who are used to watching games and filling the water in the post bars, expressed cheap sympathy for Mourinho's experience.

"That's it. Isn't it normal to play defensive counterattacks against opponents who are stronger than you? Do these Real Madrid fans understand the ball?"

"Haha, Real Madrid fans want not only wins, but also to win beauty. Have you forgotten that Capello won the La Liga championship last season and was fired for Yuyu?"

"I'll go, it's true. It seems that the Real Madrid head coach's seat is a crater, and most people really can't sit steadily."

"Mr. Mourinho is really unlucky. He was forced by Chen Ran to stay at Chelsea and ran to Real Madrid. He thought he was holding a golden thigh, but he didn't expect that his enemy was narrow and was knocked on by Chen Ran again.

A slap."

"Hehe, it's really like what is said upstairs. Mourinho left England and ran to Spain, but he couldn't avoid Chen Ran. It seems that the two of them are really a bad relationship."

"If you want me to say, Mourinho and Chen Ran are simply the football version of Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang. 'Why did you give birth to Yu, why did you give birth to Liang'."

......

After playing against Real Madrid, Chen Ran flew back to England overnight with the team.

Because three days later, the 33rd round of the Premier League will begin again, Crystal Palace will go to Liverpool to challenge Everton away this time.

In these seasons, Everton, coached by Moyes, has always been at the forefront of the Premier League, second only to Crystal Palace, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal, and is a regular visitor to the European Championship.

Although there are no big-name stars in the team, they also have powerful players such as Arteta, Yakub, Cahill, Van der Mead, Phil Neville and Lai Scott. Their combat power cannot be underestimated.

A tough hard bone.

Moreover, Pepe was still suspended in this game, and Chen Ran had to let Mascherano continue to play a guest role as a central defender.

With two headers from Yakub and Cahill, Everton tied Crystal Palace 2:2 at home, revealing the biggest upset in the Premier League in this round.

In other matches in this round of Premier League, Manchester United defeated Middlesbrough 3:2 away, while Chelsea defeated Manchester City 2:0 away.

With the help of Everton, Manchester United and Chelsea took the opportunity to narrow the points gap with Crystal Palace.

Now they are three-pointers and four-pointers behind Crystal Palace respectively, and with five rounds left in the league, they have rekindled the already very slim hope of winning the championship.

What's worse is that the continuous high-intensity game also caused veteran Vieira to suffer a muscle strain. Although it was not particularly serious, it was still absent for about a month.

Even if the recovery goes well, Vieira is probably only able to catch up with the last round of the Premier League and the Champions League final.

The injury of Vieira, the absolute main player and captain of the Crystal Palace midfielder, immediately attracted strong attention from the English media.

In addition, in this game, Crystal Palace was tied by Everton, and for a moment, the voice of Crystal Palace was once again revealed.

"Crystal Palace has been unfavorable for the years. After the season was reimbursed by many main players, Vieira, the captain and midfielder core, was also on the list of wounded soldiers."

"In the final sprint stage of this season, Crystal Palace has continuously lost the generals, which casts a shadow on their way to defend their title."

"The game was tied by Everton, and the injury of captain Vieira, Crystal Palace has allowed Manchester United and Chelsea to catch up, and the ownership of the Premier League championship this season has also rekindled the suspense."

"In the previous seasons, only a few players in Crystal Palace were troubled by injuries, which is also an important reason why they were able to win many championships. Now, how to win the championship under severe injuries is for the Chinese to have a Chinese

It's a real test."

"According to the latest data from Spinach, as Crystal Palace continues to suffer injuries and absent, the gap in the odds of winning the championship between them and Manchester United and Chelsea is also narrowing."

......

Chen Ran has no time to deal with the public opinion trend now. Because three days later, Crystal Palace will face the second round of the Champions League eight-to-fourth.

Like Chen Ran's itinerary, Mourinho took Real Madrid back to London he was familiar with the second day after playing in the weekend's La Liga.

As soon as he landed, he received "good news" about Vieira's injury, and for this he opened a bottle of red wine to celebrate it.

And for Chen Ran's side, the list of available players who are increasingly stretched out makes him frown.

It’s not that we can’t line up a starting lineup, but if this continues, fewer and fewer players can rotate, and many players have to fight continuously.

As we all know, continuing to play in a state of fatigue is the most likely situation to cause injuries.

Once you enter the dead cycle of fatigue combat → injury → more fatigue combat → more injuries, then those who wait for Crystal Palace will definitely be the result of a collapse.

After counting the only two "first-level blood recovery cards" left in the system inventory, Chen Ran couldn't be happy.

Because although the "first-level blood recovery card" can enable a player to have sufficient physical fitness during the game, it cannot reduce the player's fatigue.

It’s like drinking a can of Red Bull when you’re sleepy. You can refresh yourself at that time, but you still have to sleep and rest afterwards, otherwise you will only be more sleepy.

However, the game against Real Madrid is right in front of you, and Chen Ran doesn't care about so much now. He will send Mourinho home first.

Mourinho, who only wins one way, once again showed his crazy side to the world, which was completely contrary to the complete contraction of defense and bus at the Bernabeu Stadium. This time, when he came to the home court of Crystal Palace, Real Madrid instead pushed forward the attack.

Mourinho sent four forwards to bombard the defense line around the Crystal Palace.

Chen Ran was not showing any weakness. He knew that Crystal Palace's defense line was now seriously short of people, and even if he set up a bus, he might not be able to defend it.

So, Chen Ran also arranged an attack lineup for Crystal Palace, preparing to use attack instead of defense.

In this way, the two teams staged a crazy goal battle at home at Crystal Palace.

With the goals of Tony, Ronaldo, Kaka and Thiago Silva, Crystal Palace played against Real Madrid at home to 4:4.

In the end, with a small win in the first round, Crystal Palace narrowly eliminated Real Madrid with a total score of 6:5 and successfully advanced to the Champions League semi-finals.

In other UEFA Champions League matches, in addition to Crystal Palace, Chelsea, Barcelona and Inter Milan each grabbed three other places in the Champions League semi-finals.

Although he successfully advanced to the Champions League semi-finals, Chen Ran was completely unhappy.

Because in this match against Real Madrid, when Crystal Palace was trailing 3:4, Thiago Silva jumped to the top without hesitation, helping the team equalize the score.

But after he hit the ball, he couldn't stop the car and hit the post, and he was bleeding from the spot.

The team doctor urgently treated him on the court and sewed eight stitches. Fortunately, there was no problem with the bones, and the diagnosis resulted in a mild concussion sent to the hospital.

However, for the sake of the players' health, Chen Ran does not plan to play Thiago Silva again in the last two games.

This time, Crystal Miyamoto's lack of people in the defense line made it worse.

Vidic, Chiellini, Thiago Silva, and Vieira, the four midfielders and backcourt players were absent at the same time, not only gave Chen Ran a headache, but also made Crystal Palace's championship rival laugh.

Lost your mind.

At Manchester United Club, in Ferguson's office, CEO Ed Woodward once again smiled and sat in front of Ferguson with a bottle of red wine.

"Sir Ferguson, as you expected, the injury situation at Crystal Palace is getting worse and worse. I believe it is not far from the time of the collapse you predicted. Should we have a drink to celebrate in advance?"

"Haha, Ed, don't worry. It's better to wait until the Crystal Palace really collapses, it's not too late for us to celebrate again. Otherwise, if you get over by that Chinese, you will feel sorry for your good wine again."

Ferguson looked calm and said slowly to Ed Woodward.

"Uh...haha, how could that happen? The Crystal Palace's defense line is almost no longer available. Even though Pepe lifted the ban in time, it's just his substitute who is often hot-headed, plus Mascherano

How could the central defender defense line composed of temporary cameos be able to hold on?"

Although he is an outsider, after joining Manchester United club, Ed Woodward also put in some effort to make up for his football knowledge. Now he is very knowledgeable about football.

"Well, Ed, you are becoming more and more proficient in football now. However, that Chinese boy is very cunning. Maybe he can really get through this difficulty. So, we can't be too happy now.

Do you understand?"

Although he was saying that he should not be happy too early, the smile on the corner of Ferguson's mouth could not be concealed.
