It had to be said—Su Luo's reaction was incredibly fast, not giving the defenders any chance to stop him.
In the blink of an eye,
Su Luo broke into the opponent's penalty area!!
After glancing at the goalkeeper's position,
Su Luo made a quick decision and took the shot.
Although Juventus defender Chiellini still tried to tug Su Luo's jersey in desperation—
It was already too late.
Su Luo had already pulled the trigger.
Buffon had no way to react.
His speed simply couldn't keep up.
By the time Buffon dove for the ball,
the football had already flown into the net.
Just like that—750.
In the final minutes of the first half,
Chelsea, fighting on their home turf, successfully extended the lead to 2–1.
Su Luo scored again.
In the Stamford Bridge stands,
almost every fan was screaming Su Luo's name hysterically.
He was a genius.
Once again,
he had proven his strength.
As for the Juventus players—
They had just poured every ounce of effort into that defensive sequence.
But unfortunately,
they were still one step too late.
As long as Su Luo charges forward,
no Juventus defender can react fast enough to stop him.
That truth stung.
Even though Juventus had worked incredibly hard—
the gap in physical strength and technical ability was simply too large.
No amount of effort could bridge it.
Now, only one second remained before the end of the first half.
This would be Juventus' last chance to respond.
On the sidelines,
head coach Allegri was still yelling instructions frantically, urging his players to push forward.
He didn't want the suspense of the match to end so early.
Moreover, Allegri knew his team well.
He believed that as long as the players took the game seriously, they'd still have a chance to perform miracles.
After the kickoff,
forward Higuaín quickly passed the ball to Cuadrado.
Cuadrado received the ball cleanly.
His speed immediately came into play.
He accelerated down the right flank,
preparing to tear open Chelsea's defense.
But just as Cuadrado began to sprint—
A Chelsea defender was already in position.
His name was Marcos Alonso.
Tonight, Marcos Alonso had performed exceptionally well.
At the very least,
his attitude throughout the match was incredibly positive.
Whether on defense or offense,
Marcos Alonso made himself visible on every part of the pitch.
And this time was no different.
Just as Cuadrado was about to break through with the ball—
Marcos Alonso stepped in to meet him head-on.
With years of defensive experience under his belt,
he didn't waste time with any fancy footwork.
Instead,
he went straight into a physical challenge.
It was a smart move.
Because Cuadrado isn't physically strong—
His strength lies in his speed and wing play.
Once he's dragged into a physical confrontation—
It immediately slows down his momentum and breaks his rhythm.
As expected—
Cuadrado was completely shut down.
He saw no space to break through at all.
And so—
Cuadrado had no choice but to pass the ball.
