37. Reckless Lescott

"Flute!" the referee blew his whistle, and the 206th Merseyside Derby officially started.

The first team to kick off was the home team Everton. As soon as the game started, Everton took advantage of their home court to launch a fierce attack.

In the eyes of current Evertonians, there is no gap between them and Liverpool. On the contrary, they also think that Everton is much better than Liverpool. Especially since Liverpool is now in this difficult stage,

At this time, if Everton cannot defeat Liverpool, then what dignity do they have to survive in Merseyside?

Moreover, their Everton team is the father of Liverpool. If Everton had not left, where would Liverpool have been born?

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, Everton must win this game. Otherwise, they will have no face to survive.

At the beginning of the game, Everton launched many threatening attacks. However, Liverpool's defense was very tough, especially in the midfield. Benitez placed Mascherano and Jay on the back line.

The three of Ladd and Sissoko obviously stepped up their defense. After the game started, they did a good job.

At this moment, the Liverpool people seized the opportunity. Everton midfielder Arteta's pass was intercepted by Gerrard who suddenly attacked!

The ball is broken!

Danger!

Gerrard immediately passed the football to Sissoko on the sideline. However, before Sissoko could catch the ball, the football was intercepted by Hibbert who rushed up.

Hibbert, who stole the ball, quickly pushed the ball forward. Everton's core midfielder, Arteta, a young genius from La Masia's youth academy, caught the ball. This was definitely a good opportunity for a counterattack.

This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a counterattack. The moment he caught the ball, Arteta quickly turned around and prepared to rush towards the Liverpool half at high speed.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and made a sliding tackle, scooping the ball away from Arteta's feet. Arteta immediately lowered his head, and he found that the Argentine of Liverpool was about to

lie on the floor.

"Mascherano... it's Mascherano. He appeared at the most critical moment. It was him who killed Everton's counterattack in the cradle," said BBC radio commentator John Mott.

Sen explained in great surprise that he was still shocked that he could destroy the ball at this time.

"Oh oh oh, good job, Mascherano, we support you..." The Liverpool fans at the scene shouted, applauding Mascherano's performance and excited. If all the Liverpool players were

If Mascherano plays like this, they may not lose this game.

Mascherano has not played many games this season, but the guy has been in good condition, which makes Benitez very happy.

Seeing the ball being scooped out, Liverpool's right back Finnan quickly stepped forward to catch the ball. He pushed the ball directly to Gerrard in front of him, and Gerrard had already noticed Jagielka in front of him.

Therefore, he did not stop the ball, but directly kicked it and sent the ball to the side.

The ball quickly rolled past Jagielka and towards Qiu Ze behind him. At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out and stretched out a leg to block the rolling ball. The Liverpool team at the scene

The fans were shocked, no way, we just got the ball, we wouldn't lose it so quickly.

Qiu Ze, who was about to catch the ball, was also stunned. Everton's defensive players were so active. They didn't relax at all. It seemed that they had worked hard today. The Evertonians were very energetic in this game.

I want to win. Originally, Qiu Ze was ready to retreat, but at this moment, Yabo, who rushed out, did not touch the ball. The ball passed a little bit in front of his toes and rolled towards Qiu Ze.

empty!

Everton's defense on the wing was empty, and the consequences of Yabo's hasty save were equivalent to a blow in the penalty area. In an instant, Yabo changed from a hero to a sinner. Originally, Yabo's sudden save was likely to steal the ball.

If he succeeded in intercepting the ball, he would definitely become a hero. However, he failed, and instead Everton's defense on the wing collapsed instantly, leaving too much space for Qiu Ze.

Obviously, Qiu Ze did not expect that the ball would leak, so his reaction was still a bit slow. However, who is Qiu Ze? Is he Chris, who is super fast? Qiu. If, this ball is replaced by someone else

One person would never be able to hold the ball. However, this person was none other than Qiu Ze. Qiu Ze, who started at high speed, stretched out his kick and pushed the ball forward when the ball was about to roll out of the baseline.

go.

"Chris... go, go, go." Seeing Qiu Ze's crazy impact on the wing, the Liverpool fans were all excited and shouted crazily, cheering for Qiu Ze.

There is a smooth road in front of Qiu Ze, and there is a smooth road, so Qiu Ze can gallop freely.

Like lightning, Qiu Ze frantically attacked Everton's defense. In a few breaths, Qiu Ze had already rushed to the edge of Everton's penalty area on the left side, and Everton's center back Lescott immediately rushed towards him.

Come out and block Qiu Ze's path. Seeing Lescott rushing out, Qiu Ze, who was advancing at high speed, suddenly slowed down and faced Lescott at the edge of the penalty area.

"It seems that Chris is going to use his skills to break through Lescott's defense, but Yabo is chasing like crazy at this time, and Chris doesn't have much time!" BBC radio commentator Mark Lauren

Sen said nervously.

Seeing Qiu Ze slowing down, Lescott immediately stabilized himself in front of Qiu Ze, lowered his center of gravity and defended tightly. However, at this moment, Qiu Ze suddenly took the ball out and suddenly started Lescott's defense.

He is very experienced and has very strong defensive ability. Lecost's speed is not an advantage, and his turning speed is also a bit slow. Faced with Qiu Zed's sudden acceleration, Lecost really didn't have much to do, so he had to stretch out his hand to pull Qiu Zed.

Ze's jersey. At this time, he didn't care whether it was in the penalty area or not. There was only one idea in his mind, and that was to keep Qiu Ze.

Stretching out his hand, Lescott suddenly grabbed Qiu Ze's jersey. Lescott was slightly startled. He did not expect to catch Qiu Ze's jersey so easily. Logically speaking, Qiu Ze's jersey

With his super speed, he had no chance to grab Qiu Ze's jersey, but how could he grab it now?

Not being able to care anymore, Lescott pulled Qiu Ze back with force, and at the same time, he turned around quickly to catch up with Qiu Ze.

"Bang" Qiu Ze's body suddenly lost his balance and fell into the penalty area. The Everton team members were stunned and did not understand how such a thing could happen? The Liverpool fans at the scene could not care so much.

, they became angry in an instant, he jumped wildly, and they shouted crazily: "Penalty kick... Penalty kick... Penalty kick..."

"Ah... fell down. Chris fell in the penalty area. This is a foul. It is definitely a foul. Lescotta reached out and pulled Qiu Ze's jersey. This is definitely a foul.

Ah!" BBC radio commentator John Mortensen suddenly jumped up and explained excitedly.

"Oh, Everton's Lescott is so reckless, how could he reach out here? Lescott is no longer a young boy, how could he make such a low-level mistake? This is not

Give points to Liverpool? Oh, what a pity..." BBC radio commentator Mark Lawrenson felt that Lescott's foul was not worth it, "However, Chris did a very good job in this regard.

, we can clearly see that when he suddenly started to pass Lescott, there was an obvious deceleration. It seems that he expected Lescott to make such a move. Lescott was fooled.

, I have been fooled by this young boy, Lescott has been living in vain for so many years!"

After reacting, the Everton players were very excited. They quickly surrounded the referee who blew the whistle and ran towards the referee. Of course, the Liverpool players were also equally excited, and he also

They frantically surrounded the referee, and the players from both sides excitedly explained to the referee.

"Mr. Referee, that was a flop. It was obviously a flop. Lescott didn't touch him at all. He was diving. Mr. Referee, you must severely punish this unhealthy trend!"

"Yes, Mr. referee, you must not be soft-hearted, this is a flop!" Everton players surrounded the referee and said.

"Mr. Referee, it's a foul. Lescott made a foul. He stretched out his hand to pull Chris down, and he also moved his feet. Such actions are very dangerous. You must punish him severely!"

"A penalty kick, this is definitely a penalty kick. That damn Lescott committed such a brutal foul. Look, our Chris didn't even get up at this time. Mr. referee, you must make the decision for us!"

The Liverpool players also did not show weakness and surrounded the referee one after another, complaining about Everton's foul.

"I see clearly, how to judge, that is my business, now please get out of the way!" The referee pushed the players of the two teams away expressionlessly, and he quickly rushed into the Everton team's goal

In the penalty area, he first rushed towards Qiu Ze who was lying on the ground. He wanted to see if Qiu Ze was injured. At this moment, Qiu Ze struggled to stand up from the ground. It seemed that there was nothing serious.

"How will the decision be made? I think fans all over the world are staring at the referee attentively at this time. Our referee is really under pressure. Haha, how will he make the decision?" BBC Radio

The narrator John Mortensen explained loudly.

"Oh, a penalty kick, yes, it's a penalty kick. The referee's gesture was very clear, penalty kick, he pointed to the penalty spot!" At this time, BBC radio commentator Mark Lawrenson suddenly roared, scaring everyone.

Jump. "Let's take a look at the slow motion. Indeed, it is true that Lescott reached out and pulled Qiu Ze down. This is a penalty kick. There is no problem. There is no problem with the referee's decision."

"Oh, yellow card. The referee gave Lescott a yellow card. There is nothing wrong with the referee's decision. This is normal." BBC Radio commentator John Mortensen obviously also sided with the referee.

of.

Everton's players are still explaining around the referee, but they also know that it is impossible to change the penalty now, but they are still explaining, it is also good to influence the referee's subsequent penalty.

The referee immediately signaled the players on both sides to exit the penalty area quickly and not to interfere with the players taking the free throw.
