Chapter 375: An Away Battle at Stamford Bridge (Part 2)

During the intermission, Rodgers was only emphasizing one point, that is offense.

"We are only one goal behind, there are still opportunities."

"We have to step up our attack, as long as we score one goal, we can tie the total score and win on away goals."

With Chelsea already scoring, extra time is out of the question for this game.

In the next second half of the game, as long as Liverpool can not lose at the end of the game, they can eliminate Chelsea.

Although Chelsea temporarily leads the score, they will never dare to draw.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Chelsea was still in their slow pace control style.

Currently leading the score, they must of course focus on stability.

Now Chelsea's first priority is not to concede the ball, not to let Liverpool get an away goal, this is what Mourinho has repeatedly emphasized during the halftime break.

In order to win away goals, Liverpool naturally has to strengthen their offensive.

So the opening three strikes in the second half were made by Liverpool first.

In the 47th minute, Moreno assisted and made a cross from the front. Lee Chenglong grabbed a point in the penalty area, but under the interference of Terry, the ball turned into a skyrocket.

In the 52nd minute, Sterling dribbled the ball and sent an inverted triangle back pass. Li Chenglong's low shot from the top of the penalty area was insufficient and the ball was confiscated by Courtois.

Liverpool launched a continuous offensive, which made Stamford Bridge lively again.

The fans at the scene were cheering for their team, and the two head coaches on the sidelines were also very nervous.

Mourinho kept yelling and directing the team's defense. This is Liverpool's counterattack time. After this period, it will be much better next time.

Rogers walked back and forth anxiously clenching his hands, hoping that his players could score goals as soon as possible.

Chelsea's defense is indeed very good. Their continuous interception, pressing, and blocking finally slowed down Liverpool's offensive a little bit.

But seeing that Liverpool's offensive was about to pass, an accident happened on the court at this time.

In the 59th minute,

Liverpool hit the frontcourt again.

At this time, Gerrard was holding the ball on the right. Seeing that he didn't have any good chances, he raised his hand to signal his teammates, and then kicked up a 45-degree diagonal pass to make a gambling attempt.

This kind of more random attempt is also a no-brainer.

The moment Li Chenglong saw Gerrard's gesture, he immediately rushed forward and rushed into the penalty area.

Kanter, who was defending against Jackie Lee, also reacted quickly, and immediately followed the pace of Jackie Lee.

Li Chenglong rushed into the penalty area and took a step, when Gerrard's pass arrived.

So Li Chenglong made an emergency stop and slowed down, allowing Kanter, who was following the defense, to rush over due to inertia. However, when Li Chenglong made an emergency stop and his center of gravity was unstable, he successfully stretched his right foot over to meet the ball in the air.

Li Chenglong's right foot paused and pulled in the air, like a spoon, firmly caught the ball, and then pulled it back in front of him.

"Gerrard~~~his cross."

"Bruce~~~ He accelerated and rushed into the penalty area!!"

"Beautiful~~~Bruce~~~Beautiful unloading!!"

Liverpool's attack this time also made the commentators all over the world exclaim.

Facing a top star like Lee Jackie Chan, Mourinho certainly wouldn't just arrange for Kanter to mark him.

The moment Li Chenglong pulled the ball back in front of him, Terry had already defended him.

But Li Chenglong adjusted the ball with his feet, and immediately raised his right foot to hit the goal.

Terry immediately fell to the ground with a shovel, trying to block the shot.

But Li Chenglong made a fake shot and dunked the ball to his left foot.

After deceiving Terry, Jackie Lee had time to deal with the ball properly, so he came for real this time.

Swing your legs sideways, raise your left foot high, pull it down hard, and volley with the instep of your left foot.

The ball immediately lifted into the air, flew over Terry, who was about to get up, quickly passed in front of Courtois, and flew into the upper right corner of Chelsea's goal.

"Goooooooooooooal~~~~~~~~~" The commentators from all over the world hissed and shouted.

"Bruce Lee~~~~~Beautiful goal~~~ He broke Chelsea's goal!!"

"Liverpool took the lead in attacking in the second half. After more than ten minutes of continuous attacking, Bruce Lee stood up and helped Liverpool equalize the score!!"

"This is a very skillful goal. Lee unloaded the ball, adjusted, smashed the ball, and hit the goal. The series of movements were very smooth and full of artistic sense."

"Now Liverpool have equalized on aggregate and have the advantage on away goals."

"If Chelsea can't take the lead again, after 90 minutes of the game, Liverpool will eliminate Chelsea by virtue of away goals and advance to the semi-finals of this season's Champions League."

After Li Chenglong scored a goal, he immediately pulled his legs and rushed to the sidelines, and rushed to the corner flagpole to complete a long sliding kneel.

This goal is too important for Liverpool, this is an extremely critical away goal.

Soon, Gerrard, Henderson and other teammates rushed over, and the whole pair embraced excitedly on the sidelines and celebrated passionately.

The Chelsea fans in the stands were booing as much as possible, but they couldn't affect Liverpool's cheers at all.

Rogers on the sidelines was also pumping his fists vigorously to express his excitement.

Liverpool celebrated for a few minutes, and it was finally over when Serbian referee Marzic intervened.

After the game restarted, Mourinho immediately commanded the team from the sidelines and asked his team to strengthen their offense.

Now the situation is not very favorable for Chelsea, they must score again in order to eliminate Liverpool.

But taking advantage of the morale bonus of the goal just now, Liverpool continued to occupy the initiative on the field.

In the 65th minute, Jackie Chan sent a cross from the side. Sturridge completed a beautiful header in the penalty area, but Courtois single-handedly lifted the ball out of the crossbar.

The fans at the scene breathed a sigh of relief. If the header was scored again, Chelsea would basically have no chance.

Liverpool attacked twice, but failed to expand the score again, so Chelsea began to take the ball.

At this time, the two teams also began to change players one after another, and they had to fight for the last 30 minutes.

Chelsea have replaced French striker Remy, Colombian midfielder Cuadrado and Serbian midfielder Matic.

Liverpool replaced Glenn Johnson and Kolo Toure in order to strengthen their defense.

In the following time, Chelsea will basically attack and Liverpool will defend.

Especially in the last few minutes of the game, Liverpool basically retreated to the penalty area and played bus defense.

In stoppage time, Eden Hazard hit Kolo Touré's thigh with a long-range shot, which was the most dangerous moment.

To play bravely in Mignolet, when he fell to the ground in the wrong direction, he pawned the ball with his calf.

In this way, although the defense was a bit difficult and a bit embarrassing, Liverpool still successfully defended the score of 1:1.
