Chapter 224
"Lin chose to pass the ball to Firmino at the front of the penalty area..."

"Firmino didn't turn around by himself but passed the ball back to Lin Yi, and Lin Yi shot directly"

"The ball is here!!! Lin Yi! Lin Yi!! This is a powerful shot! The moment Lin Yi shot, Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart looked so helpless, he took Lin Yi's shot was helpless! Lin successfully broke the messenger of the stalemate in the game, 1-0, Liverpool took the lead!"

At this moment, in far away China, how many people got up from the sand in excitement and accidentally knocked their knees on the coffee table?How many people have woken up their sleeping wives because they made too much noise, which caused their wives to scold them for a while?And how many little fans who secretly watched TV bit their tongues because they didn't dare to scream?
……

beep!
After everyone returned to their respective positions, the referee Ball blew the whistle to restart the game
After the kick-off, Manchester City did not seem overly anxious because of a conceded goal.

As a strong team, they have experienced such adversity. They know that being anxious is of no help. Anyway, there is still a lot of time, so they can slowly look for opportunities!

Three minutes after the restart, Manchester City got a good chance.

After Kompany made a few kicks with his teammates in the backcourt, he drove directly to the right side of the frontcourt with a big kick.

Zekola went to the right to compete for the top. He took the lead in the fight with Johnson, jumped high and swung the ball to the center.

Silva appeared on the ball path, and he stopped and walked towards the penalty area!

As Dzeko pulled to the wing, Liverpool's central defense was also pulled out of a huge gap by him, and Silva just dribbled the ball to the gap.

Royce has been pestering the Spaniard behind him, but he just can't catch up with him!

Seeing that Silva was about to dribble into the penalty area, Royce pulled Silva's right hand and put the Spaniard on the ground.

It's just that Silva is very cunning. He was dragged outside the penalty area, but he persisted for a while, and after two steps forward, he fell into the penalty area!

beep!
The referee's urgent whistle sounded and he rushed into the Liverpool penalty area.
"The referee called Royce a foul, and now we are concerned about whether this is a penalty or a free kick?"

"From our observation just now, Royce's foul should be a little distance outside the penalty area line, but Silva fell in Liverpool's penalty area! Let's see how the referee makes a penalty"

At this time, players from Liverpool and Manchester City also surrounded the referee.
"Referee, it's a penalty and they should be given a red card."

"It's definitely a penalty, that's right!"

Manchester City players all hope that the referee can award a penalty kick, and it is best to give Royce a red card.
"Mr. Referee, the place of the foul is outside the penalty area, this is at most a free kick!"

"That kid is too cunning, he threw it into the penalty area on purpose."

……

The Liverpool fans were signaling to the referee that Royce's foul was outside the penalty area!

The referee only felt a buzzing in his ears, and didn't know what everyone was talking about.

He quickly got away from the siege of the players of the two teams, then took out a yellow card from his pocket and showed it to Royce, and awarded a... direct free kick
"The referee made a correct decision. He gave Manchester City a free kick near the penalty area line instead of a penalty. Of course, a free kick in this position is also very dangerous. Liverpool should be careful!"

Royce was also relieved to see that the referee did not award a penalty kick
The Liverpool fans also had the same idea, but the Manchester City fans didn't agree. They booed the referee violently. In their opinion, this was definitely a penalty.

The referee's penalty has been made, and the players on both sides did not continue to entangle.

Mignolet has directed his teammates to line up a five-man wall in front of the goal, and at the same time adjusted their positions so that the wall can fully block the near corner
For Manchester City, Nasri and Silva stood at the foul spot, and it seems that one of them will take the free kick.

After whispering a few words, the two retreated a certain distance.

At this time, Mignolet also came to the position near the far post with a stern face after commanding the good wall, and at the same time guessed who would take the free kick!

After looking at Nasri, Mignolet shook his head, and finally he locked his eyes on Silva.

Must be him!
At this time, in addition to the goalkeeper, the human wall and the free kick shooter, there are several players from both sides in the penalty area who are also showing their abilities.

Fernandinho tried to squeeze out a gap in the Liverpool team's wall, but it was a pity that Lin Yi and several teammates who lined up the wall firmly stood in their positions and did not give this guy a chance.

Some other Manchester City offensive players are also ready to shoot in the penalty area at any time!

beep~~~
After the referee's whistle sounded, the fans at the scene fell silent.

The Manchester City fans don't want their voices to affect the player who takes the free kick, while the Liverpool fans are saving their strength and preparing to burst out the moment the opponent shoots, so as to interfere with the opponent.

It was Silva who started the run-up first, and the Spaniard stared at the far corner of the goal and rushed towards the ball with strides, as if he was about to make a miracle with his kick. His exaggerated movements also attracted Mignolet's attention.

Not long after Silva started his run-up, Nasri moved too!
Silva stopped suddenly after running a few steps, while Nasri suddenly accelerated, rushed to the ball, and volleyed with his left foot!

Mignolet flew towards the near corner in a hurry
Nasri's simple free kick brushed over the head of the wall, and Mignolet stretched his body in the air with all his strength, but still failed to touch the ball!
This scene shocked the Liverpool fans, and some timid Liverpool fans simply chose to close their eyes.

The Manchester City people have already stood up from their seats and are ready to cheer!
Pellegrini also had his eyes on the ball ready to celebrate.

Seeing that the ball was about to fly into the near corner of the goal, it seemed as if there was a sudden gust of evil wind, the trajectory of the ball changed, and finally brushed the bottom line of the goal near the outside of the post, and directly hit the fans behind the goal body!
"Wow~~~ Nasri's free kick hit the post and missed the goal! The ball was only a few centimeters away. If Nasri shot the ball with a slightly smaller arc, the ball might have gone in! What a pity Already!"

Oh~~~~~ The regrettable sighs of the Manchester City fans also burst out in the stands.

At this time, Pellegrini looked like a child whose toy had been robbed, with a look of disappointment on his face!

The Liverpool people felt relieved.

Especially Royce who fouled just now, after the ball flew out of the baseline, he felt that the price he paid for the yellow card just now was worth it.
The Spaniard created a free-kick and after the restart, he was extremely active, and at the same time, he was no longer just active on the right, but began to make some cross positions with Nasri.

In the second minute of No.30, after Silva changed position to the left, he dribbled the ball forward. After changing direction continuously, he suddenly made a trip to the middle and took a long shot from 30 meters away.
Silva's leg swing was very subtle and seemed very sudden, but the force was not small. The ball was like a cloud-piercing arrow, passing through a group of people inside and outside the penalty area, and rushed directly to the near corner of the goal!

Mignolet's line of sight was slightly disturbed by the players in front of him, so his reaction was a bit slower.

What's more terrible is that when the ball flew near the small penalty area, there was an obvious drop, and it bounced off the ground.
This surprised Mignolet, who had already made a save. He could only open his arms and expand the defensive area as much as possible.

Finally, when he fell to the ground, the left hand above caught the ball.

After the ball fell in front of him, Mignolet immediately pounced forward and held the ball tightly in his arms, as if it was his long-lost child!
"Oh~~~ Silva showed his powerful ability to cut inside the goal. The quality of the long shot just now was excellent, but Mignolet also made an accurate judgment and tried to keep the goal. "

After the ball was caught by Mignolet, Silva hugged his head in frustration.

Seeing Manchester City's continuous offense, Liverpool is not prepared to sit still.

Three minutes later, Liverpool launched a counterattack!
After Johnson on the left intercepted Yaya Toure's pass to Silva, he directly sent a through ball to the left of the frontcourt!

This pass uses the footwork of drawing the ball hard, so the speed is very fast. The pass is obviously too big. Lin Yi didn't get the ball at the first time, and the ball went directly behind Nasri!
Looking at Nasri's old-fashioned way of getting stuck in his position and running towards the ball, no one thought that Liverpool could get the ball back.

However, Lin Yi quickly proved with his actual actions that he is such a person who is good at turning the impossible into possible. It only took two steps, and Lin Yi, who was speeding up, stuck to Nasri.

Lin Yi bumped violently with his body, and Nasri's not-so-strong body was staggered by Lin Yi.

Nasri was bumped and staggered, but Lin Yi seemed to be okay, speeding up again, took the opportunity to block the outside line, and then used his speed to overtake Nasri and catch up with the ball!
"Wow~~~ Lin took advantage of his body to bully Nasri unceremoniously! The hit just now... I think Nasri might even be knocked out of his lunch right now."

Indeed, Nasri, who was hit hard by Lin Yi just now, didn't recover for a while.

But Lin Yi had already caught up with the ball and headed towards the middle to kill it!
The Liverpool fans couldn't help applauding and shouting for the collision full of violent aesthetics just now.

After Lin Yi broke through Nasri, Fernandinho, who had been struggling to chase back, bravely defended him.

Lin Yi also knew that this guy was difficult to deal with, so he didn't plan to continue to break through, but lightly picked the ball to the penalty area!

The ball bypassed Sterling in the front and Fimi in the middle, and came to the back post!

"Lin Chuanzhong... Has the biography grown?"

"No! Royce appeared on the path of the ball, this is an excellent opportunity!"

Facing Lin Yi's cross, the German midfielder shot directly at the ball, and the ball flew to the near corner of the ball with a thunderous momentum. The moment the ball was hit by the foot, Royce thought it was the ball!
However, Joe Hart in front of the goal let Royce down!
He was still at the front post, but after taking two steps towards the back post, he flew sideways and blocked Royce's shot!

After a bang, the ball was punched out of the baseline by his double fists.

"Unbelievable save! Joe Hart saves Manchester City again, I have to say this guy is definitely one of the best goalkeepers on the planet"

This time, it was the Liverpool fans' turn to sigh.

The Manchester City fans gave their goalkeeper a round of applause.

Royce, who missed the opportunity, held his face regretfully, and Klopp waved helplessly on the sidelines.

With the subsequent corner kick, Liverpool did not cause too much trouble for Manchester City.

The game has entered the last few minutes of the first half without knowing it. After the previous confrontation, the physical fitness of both sides has been affected to a certain extent.

But everyone is gritting their teeth and insisting, hoping to score a goal at the last moment of the first half.

The Liverpool team hopes to expand the score, and a two-goal lead can reassure them a little bit.The Manchester City team wanted to equalize the score in the first half, so as not to be passive in the second half.

However, the goal at the Etihad Stadium seemed to have been closed to the two teams after Lin Yi's long shot.

At the end of the first half, even though both teams created a lot of opportunities, they failed to score. o The score was held at halftime to 1.

When the players and coaches go back to the locker room to rest and prepare for the second half.The fans in the stands took over the baton of the show~!

Fans on both sides worked hard to "play the song".

When La Ge pulled to the emotional point, everyone even wanted to "get in touch".

Fortunately, the Etihad Stadium has a very rich police force today. At the junction of some fans of the two teams, there are police there as a "isolation zone". This prevents the fans of this pair from directly fighting in the stands.

15 minutes is just the time for a few songs.

After the fans of the two teams finished singing a few representative songs of the teams, when they were about to turn the "tape" to side b, the players of the two teams had already returned to the court one after another.

"Judging from the players who have returned to the field, the coaches of both teams have not asked for substitutions..."

beep~~~
With referee Ball's whistle, the game restarted.

After the addition and adjustment of the midfield, the players of the two teams returned to the anger they had in the first half of the first half.
