Chapter 236 Chapter 【043】Liverpool's Counterattack【For Subscription, Monthly Pass】
Before the game restarted, one of the two sides received a yellow card. The speed of the referee's cards was simply too fast. The game had only started less than [-] minutes before he showed two yellow cards, which was simply amazing.However, Liverpool's head coach Benitez didn't think about this at this time. What he thinks now is to score goals as soon as possible.He quickly walked to the sidelines and shouted loudly into the court: "Fernando, go up, go up, you are a center, a center, you understand?"
After receiving the head coach's prompt, Spanish golden boy Fernando Torres immediately rushed into Manchester City's half and rushed to Manchester City's penalty area.Seeing Fernando Torres rushing into his half, Manchester City's Kompany didn't dare to be careless. The handsome Spanish kid in front of him has a good reputation and good strength.Moreover, Kompany's only task as a free man today is to freeze Fernando Torres, so he closely followed Fernando Torres.
At this time, after the Liverpool team steals the ball from the backcourt, Mascherano directly makes a long pass to the top of Fernando Torres.Fernando Torres used his body to block Kompany behind him. Although Kompany's body was strong enough, his position was stuck. He could only occasionally see Fernando Torres jumping high, shaking his head, and throwing the ball to Gerrard who was following up.Gerrard, who was plugged in at high speed, quickly crossed the half-court and caught the ball that Fernando Torres swayed.Manchester City's defender Garrido quickly blocked it, and Gerrard, who was the attacking midfielder, quickly waded the ball to the side, changing direction and using his speed to throw off the opponent.
Garrido rushed up as Manchester City's full-back, so Gerrard dared to throw the ball to the wing without any scruples.Although he didn't directly throw off the opponent's defense, Gerrard won a little space.Gerrard, who succeeded in getting to the bottom, did not continue to entangle with the opponent, and directly kicked the ball from the wing.The ball flashed quickly and flew into the penalty area.
In the penalty area, Manchester City's goalkeeper Joe Hart kept his eyes on the ball because the pass was outspinned and far away from his body.Therefore, instead of rushing to get the ball, he lowered his center of gravity and focused on the ball's trajectory.The moment the ball flew, Fernando Torres and Kompany of Manchester City rushed into the penalty area like a hurricane.The eyes of both of them were fixed on the flying ball, suddenly, the two of them kicked their legs, and their bodies shot up like rockets! !
"Ah!!" Fans from both sides in the Manchester City Stadium were tightly in the penalty area of Manchester City, and there was a burst of exclamation.
"Go in!!!" Binites didn't have the elegance of before at this time, he didn't look like a head coach at all, but more like a very emotional fan.
"Bang!!" There was a muffled sound, and Fernando Torres overwhelmed Kompany, the free man of Manchester City, and smashed the flying ball towards the goal with his head.
Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart's body flew up like a roc, with his hands stretched out straight, he miraculously prevented the ball from flying like lightning.The ball slammed into Joe Hart's hand, and then flew out of the penalty area! !
"Hey! Damn God!!" The Liverpool fans let out a heavy sigh! !
"Whoa...Superstar - Joe Hart...Joe...Hart..." Manchester City fans chanted their hero's name frantically, and there was only room for one name in their hearts at this moment.
The ball flew out of the penalty area quickly, but did not fly far.At this time, Liverpool's midfielder Spaniard Alonso rushed up quickly, wanting to volley against the ball.At this time, the joy on the faces of Manchester City fans suddenly froze.
Suddenly, a blue figure rushed up like lightning, quickly stretched out his hand and pulled Alonso, who had been plugged in, to the ground.Seeing this, Manchester City fans breathed a sigh of relief.However, at this moment, the referee's sharp whistle sounded on the court.The fans of Manchester City quickly turned their eyes to the front of the penalty area, and suddenly the hearts of all Manchester City fans contracted suddenly.Because it was Xu Zhou who fouled, yes, it was Xu Zhou who scored the goal, yes, it was Xu Zhou who got the yellow card!
He has a yellow card?The Manchester City fans at the scene stared at the referee nervously, the Liverpool fans were putting pressure on the referee, and the Liverpool players also stepped forward to put pressure on the referee.The person involved, Xu Zhou, had his hands on his hips and stared at the referee with a relaxed face. Almost at this moment, everyone on the scene stared at the referee with relish.
Seeing such a battle, the referee smiled bitterly in his heart, and then awarded Liverpool a direct free kick to the front, but did not show any sign to Xu Zhou, and the Manchester City fans at the scene were relieved.
The scene gradually quieted down, and Gerrard stood quietly in front of the ball with his hands on his hips.In Manchester City's penalty area, Manchester City's goalkeeper Joe Hart shouted loudly and set up a human wall.Joe Hart is very aware of Gerrard's style, heavy artillery, but so what?This kid's heavy artillery is simply too scary, so Joe Hart is very cautious.
In Manchester City's penalty area, players from both sides crowded together, their eyes fixed on Gerrard in front of the ball, as if they were waiting for his serve.At this time, the referee looked at Gerrard, and Gerrard immediately raised his hand to the referee to indicate that he was ready.
"Flute..." The referee's whistle suddenly sounded in the stadium, and the players in the penalty area of the Manchester City team surged together, advancing, running backwards, and crowded.In front of the ball, Gerrard accelerated sharply and quickly ran up.Manchester City's goalkeeper, Joe Hart, has his eyes on Gerrard, and the Manchester City wall has his eyes on Gerrard.
"Bang..." With a muffled sound, Gerrard hit the ball hard with his right foot.The ball flew out quickly as if being hit by a heavy hammer.
The Manchester City team's human wall has already taken off, but after they have already taken off, looking at the trajectory of the ball, their expressions have changed.Because the ball clung to the turf like lightning, passed under his feet, and flew straight to the goal behind them.At this time, the Manchester City fans and the wall players all showed horror.
Manchester City's goalkeeper Joe Hart immediately made a sideways save the moment the ball flew out. His body fell rapidly and he threw himself on the field, his hands desperately stretched out.However, the ball still passed through his fingertips.There was an uproar at the scene...
"Dang..." A crisp sound exploded in the Manchester City Stadium, like a deafening thunder.
The ball hit the post on the left side of the goal hard, and then was suddenly ejected from the baseline. Manchester City escaped unharmed! !
"Hmm..." the Liverpool fans at the scene exclaimed, their disappointment palpable.Such a goal did not go right, and they all felt that God should reflect on himself.
"Huh..." The fans of the Manchester City team let out a big breath with lingering fear.However, the danger of Gerrard was exposed at once.
"Bang..." Seeing that the ball didn't go in, Gerrard squatted down suddenly, and then slammed his fist hard on the turf of the field.The goal was not scored, and Gerrard was very annoyed. If the volley with the back of his right foot was a little bit more powerful, or the part that touched the ball was a little bit backward, then the ball would definitely be scored.Gerald was very excited, and roared to the sky, as if he was roaring why the sky was unfair.
"Hey..." Benitez on the sidelines had already raised his hands to celebrate, but he didn't expect such an ending. He sighed and shook his arm violently.
"A very beautiful free kick from the outer corner, with excellent speed, arc and strength. It was a very high-quality shot, but our luck seemed to be unlucky. The ball hit the goal post. This ball has already fooled everyone at Wigan Athletic, but it has not fooled God!! Hey..." BBC TV commentator John Mortensen also revealed deep regret in his words.
After stabilizing the rhythm, Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart kicked the ball out.The ball quickly flew across the half-court, but flew straight to Mascherano's chest. Mascherano stopped the ball with his chest and he successfully intercepted the ball.
After successfully stealing the ball, Mascherano immediately passed the ball to Gerrard in front of him. After catching the ball, Gerrard started a quick counterattack, but Garrido chased him like a mad dog, and the full-back Garrido rushed forward like a mad dog.Moreover, Garrido's speed is already fast, so Gerrard has no advantage in this regard, and Gerrard quickly took the ball to the center.
Seeing that Gerrard took the ball to the center, Manchester City's full-back Garrido also rushed to the center.However, Garrido's speed is much slower, and he is not the kind of person who only has anger in his head.He won't just release the wing, he is preventing Gerrard from passing the ball to the wing!
Manchester City's red defender Dunn has come up, and Gerrard's speed has completely dropped.Garrido, who was slowly following up, was not in a hurry at all. He wanted to find the right time, a fatal blow, to completely break the opponent's ball and resolve the crisis.
Seeing that Gerrard had slowed down, Garrido suddenly started and rushed towards the ball at Gerrard's feet.
"Ah..." All the Liverpool fans exclaimed, such a good opportunity is about to disappear.The pain in their hearts, if they can seize the opportunity, then they will be able to tie the score! !
Seeing that Garrido's foot was about to touch the ball under Gerrard's feet, Gerrard reacted suddenly, flicked his ankle quickly, and passed the ball to the left.Because when Gerrard got the ball, Garrido had already rushed out, so Manchester City's right side was absolutely neutral.
The ball flew behind Manchester City's defenders on the right and Garrido turned around immediately.However, as soon as they turned around, a red shadow passed by them and rushed into the restricted area.
It's dangerous! !Chelsea is in danger! !
At this time, Garrido was so angry that he yelled fiercely and crazily rushed towards Dirk, who was catching the ball.Because of the unfavorable offense, the two of them frequently switched positions, so it was Kurit who rushed up.
Although Garrido rushed forward howling crazily, the high-speed plugged-in Dirk Didier was not affected in any way. He seized this rare opportunity and quickly volleyed.
