Chapter 478 Is Not the Shevchenko I Was Back then
Crespo didn't take off.
Because under Carvalho's close marking, it is easier to lose the center of gravity when taking off to catch the ball, and it will become more difficult to control the ball...
Fortunately, in Newcastle, due to the existence of a head coach who often comes up with various inexplicable ideas for training, it is much faster and easier to establish a tacit understanding between players.
And in the past 30 minutes, Podolski, who passed the ball from the wing, already knew what kind of pass Crespo needed after several attempts. Therefore, Prince Porti's pass happened to be able to get the ball without the Argentine center taking off...
Crespo's excellent positioning and anticipation allowed him to block the Portuguese central defender Carvalho well behind him while standing on the ground. Then, he did not give the opponent a second chance to react, and immediately played the ball...
This is an extremely simple horizontal call!
It looks more like a pass error, because the football is rolling slowly like a tortoise crawling. It seems that as long as Carvalho turns around, or John Terry not far away takes two steps forward, the football can be kicked out of the danger zone without any suspense...
However, the crowd of more than 60000 Chelsea fans who were cheering a moment ago at Stamford Bridge screamed uncontrollably as if they had seen the most terrifying thing in the whole world...
On the court, Carvalho and John Terry, the two world-class central defenders, cannot give them the slightest sense of security!
All this, just because of the appearance of one person——
Andrei Shevchenko!
[Ukrainian nuclear warhead] Just like Zhao Zilong, the invincible "General Changsheng" with a white horse and a silver gun on Changbanpo, he slapped his horse out of the chaos and rushed towards the football with lightning speed. When everyone discovered Crespo's intention to pass the ball, time seemed to be too late...
In the penalty area, less than 20 meters away from the goal, as long as the football is kicked, with Shevchenko's powerful shooting posture, Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech wants to make a successful save. First, I have to recall whether I have looked at the almanac when I was guarding the goal today...
At this critical moment, Chelsea needs someone to stand up and turn the tide!
John Terry believes that he is the hero that everyone is looking forward to!
He erupted with incomparable strength in an instant, kicked a large piece of grass on the ground, and swished his whole body to slide the shovel towards the lawn...
"Want to shoot in front of me? You couldn't do it in training before, but now in games...don't even think about it!!"
Since the start of the competition three years ago, Terry has had an absolute advantage. Three years ago, he successfully drove his opponent out of Stamford Bridge and out of this piece of grass that he alone has the final say on. Now, with his strong self-esteem and self-confidence, he will never allow Shevchenko to take away his style here...
This is a ground slide!
While making the movement, Terry tried his best to straighten his right leg. On the premise of not showing the studs on the sole of his foot, he wanted to dare to extend his leg to the football before Shevchenko shot. Dangerous tackles cannot be used in the penalty area, but such blocking methods will not be sentenced to death...
Terry is going to block Shevchenko's shot path in a way that has made him a team hero countless times in previous games
10 cm...
7 cm...
3 cm...
After 90.00 seconds, Terry was ecstatic because he clearly saw that his feet had reached in front of the football, blocking almost [-]% of the shooting routes...
but……
Terry's imaginary leg-football collision didn't happen!
Next, Terry, who understood everything, showed a terrified panic in his eyes!
Because Shevchenko’s right foot, which was swung up suddenly and pulled out with all its strength, had an incredible light pause the moment it touched the football, and then changed from a shot to a challenge. The football did not fly out in the most violent way. Instead, like a naughty little kangaroo, it lightly jumped over Terry’s horizontal leg...
Shevchenko then provoked!
Seeing that the opponent was about to jump over him to get a single-handed shot, Terry was quick to use his wits and was about to raise his leg and lightly rub Shevchenko's leg to disturb the opponent's balance, so as to create a chance for goalkeeper Petr Cech...
However, at the moment when his leg was about to be lifted, Terry was surprised to find that Shevchenko's leg came to the door on his own initiative...
"This is... bad, he wants to cheat a penalty..."
Waiting for the captain of the blue army to react, it was too late to retract his legs, the toes of [Nuclear Warhead] lightly hung on his legs, and then the whole person fell to the ground in a 'crash' like an airplane hit by an anti-aircraft gun...
"force--"
The referee's whistle sounded instantly, and Howard Webb, who was less than 6 meters away from the incident, didn't need to think about it or consult the assistant referee, and ran directly to the penalty area. The direction his finger was pointing was the penalty spot!
"... Shevchenko fell in the penalty area... Is it a flop? Let's see what the referee decides? Oh, a penalty kick? It was really a penalty kick? The game turned around. Chelsea, who were playing at home, had already controlled the game, but Newcastle was lucky to win a penalty kick..."
MacDonald sees everything that's happening on the field.
But it is precisely because he can see clearly that he is extremely depressed. Newcastle's penalty kick is completely in line with the rules. Shevchenko's fall under such circumstances is definitely not a flop.
Although Mike Donald has always wanted to surpass "England's No. [-] mouth" Sester in the field of commentary, he does not have the courage of Sester to blatantly 'distort' the facts in the game commentary, and cover up his favorite team and players...
……
On the field.
Chelsea players surrounded the referee one after another, trying to explain that this was not an action serious enough to be awarded a penalty kick...
However, the scene just happened was too obvious, there was no luck at all. Even if the referee Howard Webb wanted to carry out the 'home call' to the end and help Chelsea evade one or two, he was afraid that it would be impossible to escape under the satellite live broadcast. He could only signal the Chelsea players Eastern Europe to back away...
His mind went blank, and John Terry, who was regretful and angry, was called aside by Howard Webb. According to the rules of the football field, such a foul would not be an exaggeration even if he directly showed a red card...
Terry quickly apologized and explained that he didn't mean it, but what surprised him was that Howard Webb didn't mean to draw his cards, but just warned him with a serious face, and then walked away...
In an instant, Stamford Bridge Stadium was in an uproar!
The Chelsea fans selectively remained silent. Such a penalty was considered a disaster for them. The noise was less than 3000 Newcastle fans. They booed frantically. The performance of the referee in the first 30 minutes has proved that he is on the side of the opponent. The Newcastle fans will not show any mercy for this bald referee...
But soon, louder boos rang out. The boos made by the Newcastle fans with all their lovemaking strength were like the gurgling of a brook meeting the raging waves of the sea, disappearing without a trace in an instant...
Chelsea fans also joined the ranks of boos!
Because on the court, Newcastle is ready to start taking penalties!
Everyone exited the penalty area, and the person standing in front of the white football and goalkeeper Petr Cech was the [Ukrainian nuclear warhead] Shevchenko who created this penalty!
Chelsea fans booed desperately, just like what they have done to their own Shevchenko in the past three years. Today, they will use even more crazy and bursting boos to scare the "enemy Shevchenko" into fear, frighten his feet, and kick a penalty kick...
"force--"
The whistle sounded, and Shevchenko stepped back slowly, not as aggressive as when he broke through Buffon's goal in the Champions League final, nor as flashy as when facing Dudek in the Istanbul night...
At this moment, his eyes are calm!
Opposite Shevchenko, on Chelsea's goal line, Cech made a move that surprised everyone. He twisted his buttocks and made several quick moves from left to right and right to left...
The Czech gibbon is imitating the movements of Liverpool goalkeeper Dudek!
This is a very obvious psychological tactic. The smart Cech understands how unforgettable Dudek's strange action left in the hearts of the Milanese at that stop, so he wanted to use this action to interfere with Shevchenko's psychology, because the last [nuclear warhead] who played that year faced Dudek and missed a penalty kick, ruining Milan's last hope for a comeback...
Shevchenko has been watching Cech's movements, even if the opponent made the set of movements that he will never forget, [Nuclear Warhead]'s eyes dodged in the slightest...
Taking one last look at the position of the goal, then down at the ball, Shevchenko starts a run-up, slow to fast, and finally a run...
Cech is trying to judge the direction of the opponent's shot!
Finally, he pounced on the right side of the goal, because he saw Shevchenko's eyes finally glanced there when he looked at the goal for the last time, and stayed there for a moment...
but……
boom!
The football turned into a straight white lightning, flew directly from the middle, and rushed into the goal!
"Since you dare to do Dudek's goalkeeping action, you should know that my shot back then was right in the middle of the goal..."
Shevchenko stood quietly on the penalty spot after shooting the goal, without the slightest excitement on his face. He was not angry with Cech for exposing his scars, but he wanted to tell Cech——
"You are not the Dudek of the past, and I am no longer the Shevchenko of the past..."
Behind Shevchenko's back is the noisy Stamford Bridge! ——
