Chapter 1221 "The Hulk" VS "The Giant Bear of the North"
Chen Yingxiong’s reminder to old Hutcheson was valid. When Chelsea played Liverpool at their home stadium, Stamford Bridge, they were like they’d all taken steroids, their fighting power simply off the charts.
Ten minutes into the game, Liverpool hadn’t found any decent shooting opportunities, and could only fire potshots from outside the box.
Chen Yingxiong was even more surrounded.
Not only that, but they conceded a goal in the fourteenth minute!
“Hulk—Hulk!!! The Hulk!!! He’s so strong!”
The commentator shouted at the top of his lungs.
“He forcibly shrugged off Pepe, who was defending him, and shot the football into Liverpool’s goal!!”
“It seems that Chelsea transforms into Liverpool’s nemesis at Stamford Bridge… They must be thinking, wouldn’t it be great if every game was played at Stamford Bridge!”
“Liverpool is always good at scoring first in games, good at taking the lead, and then dragging their opponents into their familiar rhythm… But this time, Chelsea scored first! Now Liverpool is getting a taste of being behind!”
“Poor Pepe, his physical qualities are already excellent, but when he met Hulk, he couldn’t hold his ground and was directly squeezed away from behind by Hulk!”
Pepe once again became the object of reporters’ jokes. In this conceded goal, he really became the green leaf that set off Hulk's red flower.
This made him angry and unwilling.
With Pepe’s temper, this was a sign that he was about to explode. Maybe in the next game, he would explode directly.
But at this moment, someone patted him on the shoulder.
Chen Yingxiong’s face came close to his, and he snorted coldly, “Don’t worry, Pepe. I’ll get revenge for you!”
Pepe was a little unaccustomed—last season they were deadly rivals, but now Chen Yingxiong was going to get revenge for him.
By the time he came back to his senses, Chen Yingxiong had already left.
His central defender partner next to him, Skrtel, grinned. “Chelsea is going to be in trouble.”
Pepe turned to look at Skrtel, not understanding why Skrtel said that.
Seeing that Pepe was curious, Skrtel explained to him, “Physical fitness is what Hero is most proud of, but Hulk dares to provoke him on this, so he will definitely defeat Hulk in this aspect and prove that he is stronger than Hulk! In fact, a Hero who can score goals isn’t scary, what’s scary is an unreasonable Hero. In Russia, he was the nightmare of all defenders, because at that time he didn’t know anything other than his body. Now he’s much more restrained.”
Pepe thought that if he was considered restrained now, how terrifying was he before?
Whether it was when this Chen Yingxiong was at Real Madrid, or after he transferred to Liverpool, he felt very difficult to deal with. Could there be an even more powerful form?
Skrtel patted Pepe on the shoulder. “Just wait and see the show.”

Actually, if Hulk had scored the goal in any other way, Chen Yingxiong wouldn’t have reacted so strongly. But Hulk chose the way he was best at, and he knew how much the commentators would praise Hulk at this time.
This made him very unhappy.
In terms of physical fitness, I am obviously the best in the world. Sure enough, if I don't show off, you won't know who I am.
Besides, he and Hulk had some old grudges—who was the direct culprit of Carragher’s retirement? It was Hulk!
Last season, Liverpool played Chelsea at home, and Hulk relied on his body to beat Carragher and score. This goal directly led to Carragher’s decision to retire.
Then it was still this Hulk who elbowed Carragher while fighting for a header in the second half, causing Carragher to bleed on the spot, and he himself was sent off with a red card.
Carragher retired because of him, and he was also smashed and bloodied by him. Chen Yingxiong had to settle these scores with Hulk.

Taking advantage of their lead, Chelsea launched a fierce attack on Liverpool’s goal. Chelsea fans in the stands at Stamford Bridge also cheered loudly, cheering for every Chelsea attack. In their huge cheers, Liverpool’s goal seemed to be on the verge of being breached at any time.
The Chelsea fans got excited, and so did the commentators.
They praised Chelsea's performance one after another.
Little Hutcheson sat in front of the TV watching the game, thinking that Chen Yingxiong was right. Fortunately, his father didn’t watch the game, otherwise his heart would really be in danger.
Tonight, his younger sister, Vivian, went to the hospital to accompany their father, while he rested at home. He happened to watch the game at home.
He was a person with a normal heart, and after watching the game for twenty minutes, he felt his heart beating fast and felt a little overwhelmed.
Not to mention his father…
He now trusted Chen Yingxiong more and more, and was even more grateful to Chen Yingxiong.
This was really considering his father's safety… and he had no contact with his father before, but he was more concerned than himself, the son.

The cheers at Stamford Bridge were so loud that they could lift the roof, making people who heard the sound mistakenly think that Chelsea had scored another goal, but they hadn’t. However, Chelsea fans felt that they were very close to scoring. Previously, Chelsea had three consecutive shots within two minutes, two of which were quite threatening.
These three shots ignited the enthusiasm of the Chelsea fans, making them very satisfied with the team’s performance. At the same time, their loud cheers also created psychological pressure for Liverpool, making it seem like their goal would be lost at any time…
At the same time, the third shot also earned Chelsea a corner kick.
Set pieces are an important means of scoring, how could Chelsea fans not know this?
In fact, Liverpool players were indeed under psychological pressure now. They used to overwhelm their opponents, and they hadn’t experienced being overwhelmed by their opponents for a long time.
Chelsea’s storm-like offensive just now made it difficult for them to breathe. If it lasted a little longer, Liverpool would have suffocated to death…
Now, while waiting for Chelsea to take the corner kick, many Liverpool players were gasping for breath. The game had only started for twenty-one minutes, but they felt tired. It could be seen how much pressure Chelsea had put on them.
“Liverpool is under a lot of pressure now, even Chen Yingxiong has run back to participate in defending this corner kick…”
The commentator also made a fuss, making a fuss about everything.
The camera did show Chen Yingxiong running back to defend in the penalty area.
However, it was not uncommon for Chen Yingxiong to run back to participate in defense. However, appearing at this time seemed to be evidence of the huge pressure on the entire Liverpool team.
In fact, Chen Yingxiong took the initiative to run back to defend the corner kick, not to help the team defend, but to make trouble for someone.
Gerrard shouted at Chen Yingxiong in the penalty area, “Hero, Hero! Go forward! We need to attack!”
He meant to launch a counterattack.
But Chen Yingxiong acted as if he didn’t hear it, constantly squeezing through the crowd towards the place he was staring at.
His target was Chelsea forward Hulk.
I’m here to make trouble for you today!
Chen Yingxiong wasn’t afraid that he was looking for Hulk, but Chelsea’s corner kick wouldn’t be kicked towards Hulk. Chelsea must have designed corner kick tactics specifically for Hulk’s physical fitness and heading ability. He just scored a goal, his condition was good, and Chelsea’s players weren’t blind, how could they not see this? So the football would definitely be kicked towards Hulk.
He turned a deaf ear to Gerrard’s shouts, and then leaned next to Hulk.
Hulk suddenly felt a shadow beside him. He turned his head and took a look, and found that it was Chen Yingxiong. He immediately perked up—I was just about to go find you! How nice of you to come to my door!
Chen Yingxiong was unhappy with Hulk, how could Hulk not have any opinions about Chen Yingxiong? He also wanted to let Chen Yingxiong see who was the strongest person!
※※※
Amidst the cheers of the fans, Belgian genius Hazard kicked the football out. Sure enough, he was looking for Hulk’s spot!
Hulk shouted in his heart, “Here it comes!” and jumped up directly.
At the same time, Chen Yingxiong next to him also jumped up on the spot.
Then the two people collided in mid-air!
There was only one landing point. If Hulk wanted to head the ball, he had to squeeze Chen Yingxiong away, so he wasn’t in a hurry to head the ball in mid-air, but instead arm-wrestled with Chen Yingxiong in mid-air.
This was originally his purpose. If he could squeeze Chen Yingxiong down in the air and then head the ball in, he could shatter the myth that Chen Yingxiong was invincible in the air!
When the football flew over, he twisted his body hard, heading towards the football, while his shoulders and body crashed into Chen Yingxiong, who was stuck in the inside lane.
He thought that this would knock Chen Yingxiong to the ground, and then watch the football fly into the goal.
But things didn’t go as planned. Chen Yingxiong didn’t fall to the ground, but he himself lost his balance…
He felt like he had crashed into a thick, sturdy concrete wall.
Under the push of the reaction force, he fell down crookedly.
At the same time, he also saw the football being headed out by Chen Yingxiong, who was high above…
The cheers of the Chelsea fans stopped abruptly.
It was like someone had grabbed them by the throat.
Hulk slumped to the ground, staring blankly at Chen Yingxiong.
Chen Yingxiong also landed, looking down at Hulk. He didn’t say anything, but from his eyes, Hulk felt a chill.
Chen Yingxiong glanced at Hulk and ran out of the penalty area.
While running, he also made a gesture of spreading his hands and shaking his head.
Obviously, he thought Hulk’s performance was too unbearable.
It should be known that Hulk took the initiative to crash into him, and he didn’t do anything in the air. He just jumped up on the spot, like a wall standing in front of Hulk, that’s all. Hulk didn’t even shake him.
The gap between the two was very obvious!
