There is a dream called football
Chapter 524 Rain Battle and Long Shots
Ballack fired a heavy shot. Van der Sar only thought it was a white dot flying in the rain. This kind of weather was a threat to the goalkeeper. Van der Sar did not dare to hold the ball with his hands, so he could only use his fists.
Hit it out.
Ferguson was also shocked. A long-range shot in this kind of weather, as long as it was within the door frame, would be enough to scare the coach.
The premise is that the ball does not fly away, even if the speed is a little slower, it will be okay.
Manchester United also knew that Cristiano Ronaldo fired from 30 meters away. Cristiano Ronaldo's heavy artillery and the footwork of falling leaves made Cech more uncomfortable than Van der Sar, but when the ball reached the goal, it was no longer powerful.
Cech still turned sideways and saved the ball.
However, this long-range shooting tactic can only be used occasionally, because there are not many opportunities to catch excellent long-range shots. After all, in this level of competition, the opponent's players will basically come forward to interfere when shooting.
.
Therefore, there are not many opportunities to be able to draw an arrow with a bow and swing your legs to volley vigorously.
Soon, Grant discovered something bad. That was Drogba on his side. In the heavy rain, his impact power dropped. The reason was simple: the lawn was slippery.
Big men often need stronger grip when making sudden turns and stops, and obviously this surface is not very friendly to Drogba.
When the ball was given to Drogba, he felt like he was on an ice rink, feeling a little unsteady under his feet. In this case, it would be difficult to forcefully turn around and squeeze in. But Drogba was ready to try, so he half-turned
Prepare to squeeze away Vidic.
But as soon as he turned around, Drogba slipped on himself, and then he fell onto Vidic.
Vidic was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that this guy looked honest, but was actually such a thief. He turned on him.
"Referee, he committed a foul."
Drogba sat on the ground and complained. Vidic was also happy. The referee ran over and signaled Drogba to get up. There was no problem with the ball.
And Drogba chuckled bitterly.
"Your performance is just average." Vidic smiled.
Drogba continued to smile bitterly and said nothing.
Soon, someone at Manchester United was embarrassed by the heavy rain, this time it was Cristiano Ronaldo.
Facing Makelele, he kept making fake moves of pedaling a bicycle, but suddenly the ball disappeared. It turned out that the ball was stopped by the water when the man was moving, so it looked funny.
The whole audience was also happy. This may be the most embarrassing scene in the history of Cristiano Ronaldo riding a bicycle. The person passed, but the ball did not pass.
On the other side, Li Qiao will make some use of the rain. For example, when facing Ashley Cole, Li Qiao will no longer make any fake moves, but will move the ball forward, and then everyone will compete in a 100-meter sprint to see who is faster.
Relatively fast.
The fact is that although Li Qiao is fast, Cole's speed is also not slow. Li Qiao can pass by, but he cannot get away. In other words, it is Li Qiao who gets the ball in the end, but Cole is already in place to block it, so
Li Qiao's little advantage is of little use.
Ferguson still wanted to go to the fourth official and say something.
"This ground is unplayable."
"Sir, this topic is over. The game must go on. You might as well pray that Manchester United can end the fight in the 90th minute."
"Don't worry, I will definitely end this damn game within 90 minutes."
On the other side, Grant didn't even ask for an umbrella and just stood in the heavy rain. He was very nervous because it seemed that the situation was not good. Chelsea's long pass was unable to hit, and there were also problems with the strong attack in the middle.
Of course, the heavy rain is fair, because Manchester United's wing attack basically failed.
What this kind of game requires is a lucky ball.
This is the common thought in the minds of the head coaches of both sides.
Soon, Cole got the ball.
In the match against Sweden in the 2006 World Cup, Cole's extraordinary kick was astonishing to everyone. Now the ball often appears in major football goal highlights. It can be said to be wonderful, and Cole is also very good at Chelsea.
Important player.
He finally got rid of Neville's entanglement on the wing, and then he flicked the ball with the back of his outside foot and passed the ball to Drogba in the penalty area.
This is a position on the ribs. This time Drogba used a little trick, that is, he leaned against Vidic before taking the ball. Usually this is nothing, but this place was different. Vidic was leaned against and the sole of his foot was
slippery.
In this way, Manchester United's defense exposed its softest ribs.
It's like a crocodile showing its white belly. No matter how fierce it is, once the crocodile shows its soft belly, it's over.
This was also the case at this time. Drogba had such a good shooting opportunity in the Manchester United penalty area for the first time in this game.
"Our opportunity has come." Grant had already clenched his fists and was ready to celebrate.
Van der Sar made a save, and Drogba hit the far corner of the goal with his left foot, but...
Drogba failed to score again.
In his early years, Drogba almost became synonymous with World of Warcraft because he never scored a single goal or a penalty kick. Although he could score some incredible goals and crush his opponents, he often couldn't handle the simplest goals well.
But this can only be said that no one is perfect. If Drogba's body can still be as sharp as Inzaghi, he will be invincible.
Missing a good opportunity again, Drogba covered his face, a little regretful, but the opportunity had been missed, Lampard came over and patted him.
"You did a great job."
On the other side, Vidic was explaining to his goalkeeper why he fell because he had tricked Van der Sar with the ball.
And Van der Sar also patted him, "Strictly speaking, the opponent committed a foul this time. I saw a small movement on his hand, so I can't blame you."
The two high-fived each other, and teammates on the defensive line often gave each other their backs to protect each other. It was similar to a survival game, and they had to trust each other absolutely.
After that, Manchester United paid attention when defending Drogba in the penalty area. They did not make any physical contact with the opponent in the first shot, but blocked his forward direction. If the opponent made such a move, the referee would whistle it.
The most important thing is not to have 50/50 physical contact with Drogba, as that will basically result in a 100% loss.
Because no one can use their body to squeeze away the big black tower Drogba.
The game became stalemate again. To be honest, in this case, neither side wanted to play overtime, but it seemed difficult for both sides to avoid it, because there were very few offensive opportunities, and the defenses of both teams were world-class.
.
At this time, the camera showed the UEFA bosses in the stands, and they seemed to be saying, how did you choose the venue for the Champions League final?
This game is played like S.
UEFA bosses also feel helpless. Who knew the weather would turn out like this? They just hope that both sides can work harder in the end.
