There is a dream called football

Chapter 181 Two key penalties

Dudek's kick usually has three possibilities.

Scooping the ball, miraculous rescue.

Unable to tackle, Drogba hit an empty goal.

Tackle Drogba's legs, then a penalty kick plus a yellow card (it was not a red dot package in those days)

But Dudek didn't think too much when he tackled the ball, he just kicked it up.

And it's ruthless.

"It's a penalty kick."

Mourinho was about to jump up, and Drogba fell to the ground in pain, but the referee's gesture was strange. He did not point to the spot of the ball, but motioned for Drogba to get up, while holding a yellow card in his hand.

"What?"

"Drogba dived?"

Mourinho pointed to his eyes, meaning did the referee see clearly?

This time the referee really saw it clearly, because Drogba's diving skills were indeed not up to standard and he jumped forward.

Li Qiao remembered watching an issue of World Football, which introduced various dives, including Gao Lin's anti-gravity dive, which was a bit contrary to common sense.

Drogba was just going with the flow, but he didn't expect it to happen. He sat on the ground and was happy.

Benitez looked at his watch and saw that time was running out. Will Liverpool really lose three games in a row?

What happens after three consecutive losses?

This is not a game. In reality, if a strong team loses three games in a row, the media will be under great pressure.

Li Qiao knew that this game was over for him, Mourinho knew him too well, and Makelele was very good at marking him, so even if Riise played in this game, Liverpool still couldn't get open on the wing.

The person who once understood Li Qiao best has now become the person who can restrict Li Qiao the most. This is very helpless.

Benitez gestured for Li Qiao to come over.

Mourinho speculated whether Benitez was going to make a substitution. He would replace Li Qiao and bring on a midfielder to hold on to the 1-2 score. At least he would not leave Stamford Bridge in such disgrace.

Benitez talked for a while, and then patted Li Qiao. To Mourinho's surprise, Li Qiao not only did not end the game, but also stood on the forward line, forming a two-forward style of play with Baros.

"Haha, interesting."

Mourinho admitted that Benitez has a lot of personality, but personality cannot be eaten, so he will beat you 3 to 1 and completely destroy Liverpool's offensive attempts.

However, the players on the field couldn't move anymore, so Chelsea players just wanted to maintain their 2-1 advantage.

The last Chelsea team was in the league plus the Champions League, and the player consumption was also very high, right at the last moment of the game.

Liverpool launched a quick attack, and the ball fell to Li Qiao's feet in three passes and two. He took advantage of the situation and passed Makelele, but Makelele was not thrown away.

This is the power of Makelele. Even if he is passed, he can follow closely and harass him from behind.

Li Qiao couldn't shoot like this. He accelerated once, but Makelele also accelerated, and he slowed down again, but it still didn't work.

At this moment, Makelele took a look and saw that he was about to enter the penalty area. He then stretched out his foot to steal the ball, but his foot collided with Li Qiao's.

Carvalho took the ball, and just as he was about to take the kick, the referee ran over and pointed at the spot.

Makelele and Carvalho were shocked, "What, a penalty kick? That's right."

The referee said he was not mistaken, it was a penalty kick.

Mourinho was angry, "If Drogba just dived, then Li Qiao dived even more this time."

Makelele said to Li Qiao: "I didn't tackle you, and it was outside the penalty area."

Li Qiao sat on the ground adjusting his socks and did not have any conflicts with his opponents. At this time, his teammates came over to protect Li Qiao. Gerrard was the first one to come over. He stood in front of Li Qiao and said, "If you have anything to do with me,

Come."

"Okay, you judge, is this a penalty kick?"

"I respect the referee." Gerrard smiled.

This ball caused an uproar both during the game and after the game, because the ball was indeed controversial, not because of Makelele's kick, but because the ball was first struck outside the penalty area, that is,

Even if Makelele fouled, it was still a free kick outside the penalty area.

But at that time, the referee decided that it was a penalty kick.

The fans in the audience began to yell and curse crazily, and thunderous boos erupted from Stamford Bridge.

The Chelsea players were also very uncooperative. They were unwilling to disperse for a long time, and Cech was also deliberately stalling for time.

Everything is creating pressure on Gerrard, who is taking the penalty. Yes, Liverpool's first penalty kicker must be Gerrard. Others are not qualified to take penalty kicks at this time.

There is a lot of pressure on Gerrard. He is the captain and he has to kick the ball in.

Cech moved repeatedly in front of the goal, but Gerrard just glanced at him, then backed away. He started to run up and hit the ball with his kick.

Under heavy pressure, Gerrard chose the burst shot, which is also the shooting method with the deepest muscle memory.

Faced with such a blast, any goalkeeper was helpless. One kick determined the outcome and the ball went in.

Red Liverpool is celebrating, like a drop of red ink dripping into the ocean.

The audience was silent, and no one heard Liverpool's celebration, but Mourinho suddenly became furious because he saw someone on the Liverpool bench provoking.

Benitez didn't know what was going on and saw Mourinho pointing at his team doctor and talking non-stop.

"This is so disrespectful, so disrespectful."

However, the conflict between the two parties quickly subsided. After learning the whole story, Benitez apologized to Mourinho.

At the end of the game, it was maintained at 2-2, and Liverpool managed to get a draw in the away game.

However, after the game, the friendship between the two sides could be said to be gone. No one exchanged jerseys after the game, and the coaches of both sides did not shake hands. The audience was booed loudly, and Chelsea fans were shouting slogans: Liverpool are thieves.

"Liverpool are thieves."

"Liverpool stole the win from us."

Of course the fans were referring to the penalty kick. Benitez did not attend the press conference after the game. The explanation given by the head coach was to listen to what the fans were shouting. Liverpool did not want to do it in a place that disrespected itself.

Staying too much.

This is the atmosphere of the Premier League, it is indeed very intense and violent.

Liverpool left Chelsea's territory overnight, but before the matter was over, the media began to hype the goal after the game.

It is very clear from the slow playback that Makelele's tackle was outside the penalty area, so the London media felt that Liverpool had indeed stolen Chelsea's victory, and that Benitez's failure to attend the press conference was also against the rules.

Afterwards, Benitez received a fine from the FA, and Chelsea also received a fine for the fans' rude remarks.
