In the next second, after Su Luo dribbled past several defenders, he suddenly accelerated!
This was Su Luo's strength—his personal ability that no one could stop.
In a flash, Su Luo lined up for the shot. The football rocketed off his foot like a cannonball, heading straight for the goal.
At the same moment, Arsenal's goalkeeper, Petr Cech, reacted with lightning speed, diving to make the save. But Su Luo's shot was too fast—Cech simply couldn't reach it in time.
The ball slipped through his fingers and into the back of the net.
Just three minutes into the match, the home team had already scored, and the pressure now shifted heavily onto Arsenal.
In the stands, Chelsea fans went wild with excitement. Even though most of them believed their team would win, nobody expected a goal to come this quickly.
"Su Luo's shot has given Chelsea the lead!" the commentator, Zhan Jun, exclaimed.
"The score is 1-0, and Su Luo strikes first for Chelsea!" he added, clearly thrilled.
Director Zhang chimed in just as enthusiastically, "That was a killer shot by Su Luo! He's so sharp that every time he shoots, there's a nine out of ten chance it'll hit the net. It's terrifying how effective he is."
"Arsenal's defense at the top of the box was just too weak. They couldn't stop Su Luo, and now it looks like Chelsea might be heading for a big win tonight!"
After the restart, Arsenal's head coach, Arsène Wenger, was visibly frustrated with his players' performance.
From Wenger's perspective, Arsenal's current squad should have been more than capable of stopping Chelsea's attacks. He rushed to the touchline, shouting urgently at his players:
"Focus on defense! How many times have I told you to stay on Su Luo? Don't let him get a shot off!"
Despite Wenger's orders, Chelsea continued to apply pressure, pushing toward Arsenal's goal.
It was clear that every Chelsea player was hungry for a dominant victory at home.
Soon, Cesc Fabregas showcased his own offensive prowess.
A midfield maestro, Fabregas always looked to distribute the ball as soon as he got it.
With the ball at his feet in midfield, Fabregas faced pressure from both Xhaka and Ramsey, but he remained calm.
Suddenly, he threaded a perfectly timed through ball, slicing through Arsenal's defense like a knife.
In one simple, yet brilliant moment, the ball split the defense wide open.
Fabregas had a long history with Arsenal, and there was no denying the emotional weight of playing against his former team. After all, it was under Wenger's guidance that Fabregas had developed into the player he was today. If not for Wenger, Fabregas might never have realized his potential, or become Arsenal's youngest-ever captain.
That history made Wenger's respect and admiration for Fabregas all the more clear.
