Football King Bale

Chapter 137: Sticking to the Ground

Liverpool's right-back Glenn Johnson is a player with a strong assist ability, has a certain foot skills, and more importantly, he has outstanding physical fitness, explosive power and speed. He once became an important player in Liverpool's offense last season. arms. But Johnson's weakness is also more obvious, that is defense. On the one hand, he has a large range of offensive pressure, and it is easy for the opponent to use the gap behind him when he switches from offense to defense. On the other hand, he still lacks the sense of position and the awareness of assisting defense and protection. rest assured.

This time, Glenn Johnson exposed his problems in defending Bell. He was completely attracted by Evra and forgot that there was a more dangerous Bell. By the time he found that Bell had made a breakthrough and went after him, it was too late.

Bell galloped freely on the open left, and the defensive players could only follow him to eat ashes. Seeing that Liverpool's defense was retreating hastily, he chose to cut inside without hesitation, preparing to shoot after approaching the penalty area.

However, he soon met his opponent, Liverpool's vice-captain Carragher. Carragher is an excellent central defender who defends with his brain. He knows when to stare at the opponent and when to hold the gap. He fully understands the basic principles of defense, and his speed is not slow. Wait until Bell cuts to the edge of the penalty area Carragher had already blocked most of the angles of Bell's shot with his body, and with Reina waiting for him at the near post, Bell found that shooting by himself was no longer a good choice.

With this understanding, Bell did not hesitate to pass the ball in an inverted triangle to the top of the penalty area. Scholes appeared there, and his long shot would be a good opportunity.

Bell's pass was not bad, and he was ready to find Scholes. Jiangtou caught the ball, and when he stretched his legs to hit the goal, he felt like he almost flew up. He was tackled from the side and rear!

There is no doubt that this is a foul, even a very dangerous behind-the-back tackle, and it is normal for the offender to receive a red card. However, referee Webber did not show Gerrard a red card for shoveling Scholes, only gave him a yellow card.

The Manchester United players quit. Captain Vidic, Rooney and others immediately gathered around Webber to put pressure on him. The home fans also booed everywhere, very dissatisfied with Weber's penalty.

But this did not prompt Weber to change the judgment. Under normal circumstances, once the referee makes a decision, it is basically impossible to change it. What's more, just a few minutes ago, Manchester United had a similar foul, and he didn't even get a red card, so naturally it won't happen this time.

Of course, the two fouls are still different. The previous O'Shea threw Torres down with a hug, which was less dangerous, but O'Shea was the last defensive player of Manchester United; Dangerous move, but he's not the last defender.

………………

Manchester United only got a free kick in the end, but the position was not bad, it was also directly in front of the goal, but it was farther than the free kick that Liverpool got just now, about 30 yards from the goal.

Bell walked to the ball without hesitation. After killing the Glasgow Rangers with a free kick in the middle of the week, Ferguson has officially made it clear that as long as Bell is on the field, he is the team's first choice for free kicks.

Thirty yards away, in the middle, and still in the state of Ronaldo's possession, this is undoubtedly a good chance to score.

Liverpool's understanding of Bell is obviously better than that of Glasgow Rangers. When they saw Bell walking in front of the ball, they looked very nervous.

Although the ball was eight yards farther than the one that Gerrard broke through the Manchester United goal just now, Reina, like Van der Sar just now, also directed his players to discharge the wall of seven, almost blocking the entire goal Front shot angle. Bell wants to score, only by letting the ball go around the top of the wall.

Bell looked at the human wall in front of him and suddenly had an idea.

He put the ball on the point solemnly, as if he was looking for the valve core. Then, he started to step back step by step, looking for a step. That action was very similar to Ronaldo's preparation for kicking the elevator ball.

The Liverpool players became even more nervous, because they remembered very clearly that just four days ago, Bale scored a very beautiful elevator goal in the Champions League match against Glasgow Rangers.

Both Gerrard and Carragher also noticed the nervousness of their teammates. They looked at each other, and Gerrard said: "Guys, relax. Everyone pay attention to Webber's movements for a while, as long as he makes a blow. With the whistle, we jumped immediately. I believe that with the height and width of our wall, plus Pepe (Reina) in front of the goal, it is almost impossible for that kid to break through our goal!"

When the Liverpool players heard this, they were immediately relieved. Gerrard is very prestigious in the team. Over the years, he has convinced all his teammates with his performance.

As Gerrard said, this wall of people in Liverpool is abnormal. Seven people almost blocked all of Bale's shooting angles, and the height is also desperate: Skrtel at 1.91 meters, Skrtel at 1.91 meters. Ngog, Torres at 1.87m, Carragher at 1.87m, Gerrard at 1.86m, Didier Dirk at 1.84m and Johnson at 1.84m, with an average height of 1.8m seven!

Therefore, this gave Liverpool players a lot of confidence.

………………

Weber confirmed that the two parties were ready, put the whistle in his mouth, took a deep breath, and blew the whistle.

At that moment, Bale started, and he accelerated towards the ball.

At that moment, amid Gerrard's "three, two, one" countdown, Liverpool's entire human wall jumped up, and every player closed their eyes and jumped desperately high. They didn't dare to open their eyes, for fear that the ball kicked by Bell would hit their faces, and it would be really miserable. However, the iron blood in their hearts made them unable to dodge, so they could only close their eyes and grit their teeth to jump desperately, vowing to stop the ball from flying over their heads!

Soon, cheers rang out in the ears of these Liverpool players. They knew that Manchester United must have scored.

And now there is only one possibility to score a goal, and that is that Bell's free kick directly broke their goal.

But how is this possible? Their human wall is so wide and high, and there is Reina guarding the door behind them, how could Bell directly break through the door?

They turned their heads to look at the goal, wanting to find the answer.

Then, they saw that the ball was indeed in the goal, and the goalkeeper Reina was bending over to catch the ball. The players of Manchester United chased after Bell and went straight to the corner flag area.

That kid really kicked the ball into his own goal? !

………………

If the Liverpool players lining the wall hadn't closed their eyes, they might have understood how the ball flew into their goal.

The moment Webb blew the whistle and they took off, Bell was indeed accelerating, but when he ran to the ball, there was a pause. This pause caused a fundamental change in the way he hit the ball. Then, instead of flying high, the ball flew along the turf and flew towards Liverpool's goal.

What Bell kicked was not an elevator ball at all, but a ground cut!

After discovering that Liverpool's human wall almost blocked all shooting angles, and almost blocked shots from the upper and lower spaces, Bell no longer planned to use the elevator ball. Because in this case, the elevator ball will either hit the wall, or it will fly out of the crossbar after going around the wall and not falling enough.

Of course, it is also possible to fully fall after crossing the human wall, but the probability is very small.

Bell thought of a better way to break the goal, which is to mislead the Liverpool wall to jump desperately, and then score with a low shot!

This needs to be completely fooled by the wall, otherwise they will not jump, and his plan will go bankrupt.

Therefore, before the free throw, Bell completely made the gesture of taking the elevator ball, and even deliberately imitated Ronaldo's movements to induce the Liverpool wall to jump desperately at the first time, but he kicked a low ball , Going straight from the bottom of the human wall to the dead corner near the goal post.

In front of Liverpool's goal, because Reina was blocked by the wall, he did not see the change of Bell's free throw. He stood in the middle of the goal, slightly on the side of the far post, and was ready to fly to save the upper corner of the far post.

However, at the next moment, he found that the ball came from under the wall and went into the goal through the near post.

During the whole process, Reina could only watch helplessly, and he didn't even have time to make a save.

Bell's low shot was very powerful, and the speed definitely exceeded 100 kilometers per hour. The space from the penalty spot to the goal was less than 30 meters, and it didn't even take a second to cross. Even if Reina is not deceived, he may not be able to complete the save, let alone he has been completely deceived.

During the whole process of scoring the ball, Reina in the eyes of outsiders just turned his head and looked at it, and then waved his hand symbolically, as if he was greeting the ball.

………………

4:2!

Old Trafford was boiling, and the fans shouted with joy.

"Down with Liverpool!"

"Good job, Bell!"

"Isn't it just a chicken thief, who wouldn't?"

...

Not long after Gerrard scored Liverpool's second goal with a direct free kick, allowing Liverpool to see the hope of equalizing or even overtaking, Bell also scored with a direct free kick, extending the lead to two goals, which is simply too encouraging !

In particular, Bell's ball completely deceived Liverpool's human wall and goalkeeper, making their defense almost useless. It is similar to the Liverpool players' demolition of the human wall just now. A feeling of relief.

A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye!
