There is a dream called football
Chapter 235 The Second Round
Before the game, Mourinho was asked many questions about him and Robben. The madman said that he and Robben have a very good relationship and there is no problem.
But he still put Robben on the bench during the game. The madman's explanation for this was tactical considerations.
At Anfield, Chelsea behaved very conservatively from the beginning. They did not attack quickly, but lingered in the midfield.
The focus is still on possession of the ball. After all, the opponent's strength in the last game gave Chelsea a headache. Liverpool and the Liverpool in the league are completely different.
But a mistake caused ripples in the game. This was a mistake by Dudek. Chelsea made a pass from the wing. It was a simple chance to pick up the ball from the sideline, but Dudek took it away. This shocked the home fans into a cold sweat.
.
Fortunately, Hyypia, who returned to defense, arrived in time and kicked the ball out of the sideline.
Dudek patted Hyypia and said, "Thank you, but it's all thanks to you."
"Haha, be careful, this is the semi-finals."
If Chelsea doesn't attack, it will be difficult for Liverpool to attack. When the ball reaches Li Qiao, Chelsea's defensive players immediately surround him, forcing Li Qiao to pass the ball back.
However, Liverpool still regarded Li Qiao as the focus of their offense, and the ball still came here again and again.
This finally made the Chelsea players angry. Someone made a big move and hit Li Qiao with an elbow. He was Thiago.
The two had played against each other when they were still in Portugal, when Thiago was in Benfica and Li Qiao was in Porto.
This immediately caused Li Qiao to fall to the ground, and the players above almost started fighting.
Gerrard was the first to rush forward.
"You should be sent off."
"People like you should not be on the court anymore."
The Liverpool players were very excited. This was a bit deliberately hurtful and must be a red card, but Thiago's original intention was to block it.
Li Qiao was about to cut across. He just wanted to block Li Qiao's route and had no other intention at all.
Chelsea players are very experienced. They first protected Thiago, and then waited for the referee to come. Captain Terry negotiated with the referee.
The referee motioned for everyone to go away and the captain came over.
After final negotiation, he gave Thiago a yellow card. During the whole process, Mourinho did not say a word because he was also worried about Thiago going down.
This kind of ball completely depends on the referee. If the referee gives a red card, there is nothing to say, because the action is really big. Fortunately, the referee was merciful this time, but all the Liverpool fans gave up and they issued a
Crazy boos.
Anfield seemed to have turned into a battlefield, especially when Thiago took the ball again, the boos were even louder, and it could even be said that it sounded like it echoed through the sky.
Everything stems from the nervousness of both sides about the game. After all, for Liverpool, 0-0 is enough, but for Chelsea, 1-0 can actually ensure that they enter the final, so in fact, both sides are only one step away from the final promotion.
.
Soon, Chelsea got a corner kick opportunity. For the corner kick, Mourinho had carefully designed it. This was also a lesson from Liverpool's tactics last time. The reason why Chelsea was equalized in the end was because of Liverpool's very exquisite free kick tactics.
Therefore, Chelsea's set-piece tactics were also specially rehearsed this time.
Lampard pretended to go to the corner flag area to take the kick, but in fact he did not kick into the penalty area, but made a transition and gave the ball to Joe Cole in the corner of the penalty area. The latter was the real cross or pass.
The one who shoots the ball.
Here Hamann immediately pressed out. He wanted to block it and must not let his opponent cross the ball like this.
But what I didn't expect was that Chelsea's tactics were very sophisticated this time. Joe Cole was not the final passer. He continued to pass the ball and passed it back to Lampard again. It was Lampard who passed the ball, and his footwork was
Use your kicking skills to shoot hard.
This is one of the most popular passing methods in Europe now. Liverpool was also nervous in the penalty area, and there might be an own goal.
The ball hit someone's foot, and then flew high. Later, watching the slow motion, I found out that it hit Garcia's foot, and he jumped up very instinctively. He also knew that the ball was decisive.
You cannot stay in the restricted area any longer.
Benitez found that Chelsea started to attack, and he was like a shark hungry for food.
Mourinho needs to take a gamble. After all, his team needs goals more, and Benitez will leave Li Qiao, Baros, and Garcia in front, and will completely beat Chelsea to death as long as there is a chance.
The opportunity came quickly. Gerrard passed the ball to Li Qiao in the midfield, and at the same time, Baros and Garcia also started.
One of the two men is running diagonally, and the other is running straight. At this time, Li Qiao's passing talent is tested.
He passed the ball straight to Baros in front. After the Czech got the ball, Li Qiao ran to the middle and formed a triangle with Garcia and Baros. This was a very exquisite movement and a duel between experts.
Baros immediately returned the call to Li Qiao. By now Mourinho's heart was already pounding because Liverpool's offense was fully open.
Li Qiao has two points where he can choose to pass the ball, Garcia on the left or Baros on the other side.
But Li Qiao chose the most unexpected way to shoot the ball himself.
Li Qiao aimed at the upper corner of the goal and fired a volley. Even Cech was helpless with this shot, because he did not expect that Li Qiao would shoot directly, because it would have been a better option to pass the ball to the left to Garcia.
When Cech stepped back, it was already too late and the ball flew into the net.
The ball went in!!!
Got in!!
Anfield began to rejoice, because Liverpool's lead meant that they were close to victory. If Chelsea wanted to move back, they would need at least 2 goals.
Under Liverpool's crazy celebrations, Mourinho's lonely figure was seen. When Li Qiao completed the pass and run, he knew that something was likely to happen, but he was helpless. Even if something happened, there was nothing he could do. Li Qiao's
The running position is very flexible, unless it is a black foot.
Chelsea players are also very frustrated. After two goals, scoring two more goals at Anfield is not easy!
Mourinho was also very aggressive. He asked his offensive players to get up and warm up. One was Kežman and the other was Robben. If it didn't work in the end, he would probably play four forwards. Mourinho did this kind of thing in the league.
I have done it before, and the effect is pretty good.
When Benitez saw the players on the Chelsea bench getting up to warm up, he was a little worried at first, but then he smiled and Jose became anxious.
He is very happy to make Mourinho anxious, and now it seems that Liverpool is the more likely team to advance, there is no doubt about it.
