Football’s First Defender

Chapter 188: Goal opportunities for both sides!

Leading from 2 to 0, to a 2 to 2 draw now. The Liverpool people experienced a sweet first half. At the end of the first half, Liverpool were only one goal away from completing a stunning reversal at Stamford Bridge!

But now, just 15 minutes into the second half, Chelsea, who was playing at home, gave Liverpool a blow, declaring that this is Stamford Bridge, the invincible home of the Blues!

Drogba’s shot from a small angle and Alex’s direct free kick. Although there is a certain element of luck, it is undeniable that Chelsea, who is fighting at home, is still one of the best in Europe today, even if it relies on offensive firepower alone. The strong team!

"Will Liverpool, who have scored 2 goals in a row, be defeated in the second half? Will the suspense of this game just disappear?"

"Although they only need to win another two goals, Liverpool can advance with the advantage of away goals, but with the current defensive state of Liverpool, in addition to offensive, they may still have to worry about not being successfully countered by Chelsea again!"

The two sides reached a tie in about 60 minutes of the match. Liverpool are now at an absolute disadvantage in momentum. However, in the history of the Premier League, they will never admit defeat. One is the Red Devils Manchester United under Ferguson and the other. One is the Red Army Liverpool in this game!

In a game where these two teams are participating, even if the team is behind by two goals or three goals in the game, miracles can happen at any time!

This is in the history of the Champions League, why the Nou Camp miracle was born, and why the Istanbul miracle was born!

For other teams, it may not be acceptable to be equalized by two goals in a row. But the Liverpool players immediately adjusted their mentality. They still have 30 minutes to fight and they think they still have a chance! They are still in the game!

"Liverpool suddenly shifted the offensive line to the right!"

"Liverpool, which has always used the left as the main attack point before, suddenly changed its offensive line, which did have some impact on Chelsea's defense!"

"Kuyt, received a cross pass from Alonso on the right and dribbled forward!"

"After Malouda's mark came up, Kuyt looked at the timing and smashed the ball!"

"Lucas, who had been waiting for a long-range shot in front of the penalty area before, suddenly chose to enter Chelsea's penalty area in this attack!"

"People just entered the penalty area! Kuyt's precise through stop has been passed!"

"Alex hurriedly stepped forward to block Lucas' shooting route and prevent him from directly hitting the goal!"

"Lucas is indeed not a good shooter. Under Alex's strict defense, Lucas had to dribble a few steps horizontally in the penalty area, looking for an angle to hit the goal!"

"But as soon as Alex's physical confrontation was applied, Lucas, who was still slightly thin, was almost pushed by Alex and drove the ball out of the penalty area on the right!"

"When he was about to leave the penalty area, Lucas didn't stick the ball on his own, but moved the ball back!"

Just now Liverpool assembled a large number of offensive personnel on the right side! When Kuyt took the ball, Torres actually came to the right, but Kuyt just scored the ball and chose to pass the ball forward to Lucas, instead of already on the right, ahead of him. Torres!

Torres just opened Ashley Cole's defense just now to set off Lucas's forward penetration!

However, when Lucas was in a dilemma that he could not directly hit the door, Torres immediately moved across the penalty area line to respond!

"Short backward pass! Torres takes the ball!"

At the moment Torres received the ball, Ashley Cole, who defended him on the right, formed a double-team with Barack, who was defending before returning to the penalty area. Lucas’ previous pass was What happened in a hurry is a bit of a heel for Torres, and Torres has no way to finish the shot directly!

The situation on the court is changing rapidly, and Torres cannot afford to think about too many things. Seeing that the double-teaming is about to be completed, Torres, who has no time and space to hit the goal, directly hit the back heel and continued to pass the ball back!

"After receiving the ball, Torres went straight to the heel and continued to pass back!"

"Harvey Alonso!"

"Keep up! Go straight and hit the door!"

"Because Alonso has Kuyt in front of him, he has been accelerating into the penalty area, taking away a lot of Chelsea defenders' attention. Harvey Alonso's kick is basically unmarked. status!"

"A long shot!"

"This ball! There was a drop in the air, flying to the lower left corner of the goal!"

"Cech! Quickly move to the side of your right hand, take off, lower your weight, and fly to save!"

"This ball! Let go again! Cech's game state today is really a bit bad!"

Although the angle of the ball is still tricky, but because the distance is too far, plus Harvey Alonso's force is not too great, Cech has had enough time to prepare and has already fallen to the ground. , Your hands are in place successfully, you can catch the ball!

But in the end, this ball was only blocked by Cech, instead of being caught directly or pressed to the ground!

"Benayoun! Inserted to the left of the penalty area before waiting for the opportunity!"

"Now the ball is blocked by Cech directly to Benayoun's feet, and Benayoun is just a fill shot to keep up!"

"A low-powered lob shot in a hurry!"

"Yang Feng jumped directly out of bounds!"

"With this kick, Benayoun obviously didn't anticipate Cech's drop. When facing the rebounding ball, he was a little surprised. Although he made a kick, he made a light lob. Yang Feng, who was directly defended back to the goal, directly pushed out of the sideline! Out-of-bounds ball!"

After Yang Feng cleared the siege, he looked at Cech who had just stood up from the ground, very helpless! Today, Cech received the ball. Thanks to Hiddink's immediate change of game tactics, Chelsea stabilized the situation by attacking. Otherwise, in the second half, it is hard to say whether it can defend Liverpool's attack!

Anyway, in Yang Feng's own experience, if the goalkeeper can't control most of such a big goal, then no matter how good the defense is, it will be useless. Liverpool will seize the opportunity sooner or later!

"When Liverpool was serving a throw-in, the broadcast was still showing Cech. Perhaps the live director wanted to understand why Cech, who has always performed well and stable, was struggling in this game!"

In the end, this wave of Liverpool's threatening attack was stopped by Lucas's long shot into the stands!

And Chelsea, who once again held a two-goal lead, is no longer as it was at the beginning of the game, shrinking defense, being passively beaten, and looking forward to counterattack. But on the offensive end, Chelsea has obviously begun to be conservative, pursuing control of the ball and making fewer mistakes to ensure that all players can return to their defenses!

Chelsea did not place the bus in front of the goal, but activated the bus and let it start in the midfield! After using the excellent defensive ability of his players and Anelka also returned to defense, the team's number advantage in the midfield! Chelsea cut Liverpool's offensive formation almost completely within a period of time!

"The game has unknowingly entered the 75th minute! Wave after wave of Liverpool's offensive have been successfully resolved by the Chelsea players in the midfield, and the few chances of crosses from the wing were also taken by Chelsea defender Yang Feng I've got a point of contention!"

"Perhaps some regrets for Chelsea is that Ashley Cole had a bit of excessive hand movement during the entanglement with Kuyt on the wing defense just now, which caused the referee to show a yellow card. If Chelsea can enter the semifinals If so, Ashley Cole will be suspended in the first round of the semifinals due to accumulated yellow cards!"

"There is not much time left for Liverpool!"

Although they have a two-goal lead, Chelsea don't want to capsize in the gutter at the last moment and be reversed by Liverpool with two goals!

The Chelsea generals intend to be stable, do their own defense, have a good opportunity to fight back, and accept the game safely at their home court!

"Liverpool started to choose some very simple tactics in the final stage of the game, hoping to open up the situation!"

"Xavi Alonso, directly in the midfield, made a long pass to Chelsea's penalty area! The ball was for Bayonne on the left side of the penalty area!"

"But Benayoun was still moving across the penalty zone line when Alonso passed the ball and didn't move forward!"

"There is no tacit understanding between the Liverpool players"

"Yang Feng, within the penalty area, he directly jumped the header without pressure and gave the ball to his teammate outside the penalty area!"

"Malouda, recovered from the left to the middle position, received Yang Feng's out-of-bounds header! Push forward by yourself!"

"Passed! Malouda! After two steps, I saw Drogba running forward on the right side of the court!"

"Malouda directly chose a half-high on the outside of the instep and passed it to the huge gap on the right half of Liverpool!"

"Malouda passed the ball on the outside of the instep. It was fast and precise. It pierced through the entire defense of Liverpool and flew directly in front of Drogba to land!"

"Drogba! Start on the right side! Liverpool was on the offensive before, and now only two defending by Scott and Aurelio in the half!"

"Aurelio is fighting Drogba for speed!"

"Although Drogba has the opportunity to start and has the advantage of being closer to the ball, Aurelio still relied on speed to catch up!"

"But! Drogba is dribbling the ball forward at full speed, diagonally into Liverpool's penalty area, Aurelio is small and thin, and Drogba looks more than an order of magnitude difference!"

"Don't worry about that much! Aurelio bravely went to find a physical confrontation from the left, hoping to slow down Drogba and buy time for his teammates to chase back!"

"But! Drogba! The horizontal force in the process of running, the swing of the arm, the rebounding force of the body's resistance, and the power of Drogba's swing of the arm, turned Aurelio like a little chicken. Pulled to the side!"

"Drogba's single chance!"

The reason why Aurelio chose to fight physically at that time instead of the sliding shovel directly to the rear was because Drogba had already stepped into the penalty area just one step away. Under the fast sprint, Aurei Leo is worried that his tackle is very likely to be caused by Drogba a penalty!

In Aurelio’s vision, although he took the initiative to bump into Drogba, it felt like he was hitting a rock with a pebble, but Drogba would definitely be disturbed by his own impact. It’s best to lose his balance, and it will slow down no matter how bad he is. , To create an opportunity for Scott, who has entered the restricted area, to make up defense!

But Drogba's body is really too strong, and the impact is indeed there, but it is just that his feet are not solid. After his legs are stretched, he returns to normal!

It's just a fast forward, resulting in a single shot, but the angle of the goal may be a bit small!

However, there is still nearly a 45-degree shot space, which may be enough for a shooter at the level of Drogba!

"Scott! Coming desperately to Drogba! He hopes to stop Drogba from hitting the goal, or help the goalkeeper Renner to block some angles!"

"Drogba swings his legs!"

"Passed!"

"Drogba did not choose to hit the goal at the last moment~www.readwn.com~ but passed the ball back to the penalty spot, Drogba did not greedy attack!"

"Barack!"

"Follow a push!"

"Damn!"

"Barack's kick hit the goal because of the long-distance running, he obviously hasn't stepped on the step point. Although the ball is full of power, it has not opened the angle!"

"The kick was really right. Reina stood still and blocked the kick! Chelsea missed the opportunity to continue to expand the lead!"

"After Ballack hit the goal, maybe he had anticipated such a situation and jumped up very excitedly! But there was no use at this time. Ballack missed the opportunity to completely kill the game for the team!"

Maybe it’s that the physical energy consumed on the defensive end is too great. Ballack’s kick is really lacking. As a German with a big heart, Ballack has never been in the past games. Soft feet!

But this kick shot so positively, but it also blinded Drogba's selfless pass. Now think about it, maybe Drogba hit it directly by himself, maybe it will get a different result!

"Barack ran back to his own half of the game at full speed. Perhaps for him, after missing such an important shot opportunity, he can only make up for it by continuing to make his own contribution on the defensive end!"

"Reina's big-footed pass was directly kicked out of the sideline by Ballack, who was back in place. Ballack, did his job defensively!"

"On this side, Liverpool is ready to substitute!"

"Spain international left winger Riella came off the bench and replaced the team's defensive midfielder Mascherano!"

"Use a striker to replace the midfielder, Benitez, ready to go all out in the final ten minutes of the game, no matter what!"
