ball at foot

Martin Taylor was a little surprised to find that there were no strikers on the list.Because Chelsea played very smoothly in the first few games, and Drogba's physical fitness is really strong, no one thought that there would be an injury, and it was precisely because of this, but when Drogba fell, he still Many people discovered that Mourinho probably believed that Drogba would not be injured, which led to the fact that there was not even a striker in the substitute list.

If Kerman is added to the substitute list, this kind of problem will not appear now.This small mistake messed up Chelsea's plans.

At this time, Mourinho's possible substitutions have also become a point of contention.

"It should be Thiago. After all, there is no striker and he can't attack for a long time. It is safer to go to the midfielder. Zhao Yaning was too smooth when he got the ball in the midfield. If Thiago is added, it should be Much better." Andy Gray made a judgment.

But Martin Taylor doesn't think so, "I think Mourinho is not such a person who admits defeat so easily..."[

Sure enough, Mourinho's substitution was Joe Cole.

Mourinho still wants to attack.Although Drogba's accidental injury has disrupted his tactical deployment, he has no intention of admitting defeat at all.After replacing Joe Cole, Chelsea is equivalent to having two attacking midfielders. Such a style of play is indeed a gamble.

But this time the substitution had a good effect.Chelsea has the advantage of the home court and already has the upper hand. Now that they have added one more player, the control of the midfield has become even better.It's just that there is only one striker left now. Although the control power has greatly increased, the question of when and who should step in has become unclear, which also makes Liverpool a little confused.

In the 41st minute, Ferreira made a pass from the right. Lampard, who was in a defensive position, was in the middle. He jumped to the top with a header 11 yards away from the goal, and there was nothing to stop him.And not only that, in the 45th minute, Joko made a long pass from the midfield to the left, Finnan made a mistake in the top, Duff received the ball and made a pass from the left, but this time, it was even more surprising that, Lampard from 6 yards in front of the goal and Smeding from the back point failed to tackle the ball, and Kirkland hugged the ball into his arms.

The continuous danger made the Liverpool players break out in a cold sweat.A series of mistakes made them almost lose their lead in the first half.Fortunately, at this time, the whistle for the end of the first half sounded.

Fortunately, no ball was conceded.Everyone who entered the locker room had the same idea.

"The time for the half-time break is really timely. Liverpool need time to adjust their defense, and Chelsea also need time to organize their offense. Presumably in the second half, the game will be even more exciting."

Martin Taylor made his prediction, and the second half of the game turned out to be as intense as he had imagined.

At the beginning of the second half, Liverpool chose a fierce midfield fight and attack.Although Chelsea had the advantage, they were not able to win immediately.The offensive and defensive rhythms of the two sides suddenly accelerated a lot, and they became entangled in the midfield.

In reality, Gallas cleverly broke through the left and made a pass. Just after the midfield, Gremi headed back to Gudjohnsen, who was full of strength. She swept the ball towards the goal.But Liverpool's left-back Traore stopped in front of him and blocked his pass.Immediately afterwards, Ferreira fouled Baros in the midfield. After Zhao Yaning took a free kick, Alonso grabbed the spot and kicked hard 7 yards from the goal in the middle, but it was judged Petr Cech fell to the ground and made a successful save.After that, Lampard broke through from the left to near the bottom line on the left side of the penalty area and passed back. Gudjohnsen swayed Hyypia, who was watching him, from 25 yards in front of the goal, and found an angle shot, but the ball missed. The crossbar flew out.Then Gudjohnsen made a direct pass to Joe Cole. Cole did not choose to pass back to the defense on the left side of the penalty area. Facing Gremi who was empty, he came directly. His direct shot from a small angle was pushed out of the baseline by Kirkland , missed the best opportunity.In the 14th minute, Finnan made a cross from the right, and Zhao Yaning shot again, but was successfully blocked by Cech again.

Chelsea's defensive ability is indeed beyond Liverpool.Not to mention anything else, Cech's outstanding performance this season is enough to make Chelsea's defense line solid and will not be easily broken.

"The offensive and defensive rhythms of the two sides are so fast that it is dizzying. This kind of game is a truly high-level game!" Watching the constant competition between the two sides, Martin Taylor also shouted happily.Different from the boring rhythm of the game at the beginning, this style of play is the rhythm that the Premier League should have. This offensive and defensive rhythm seems to be enjoyable enough.

But the situation on the court is gradually tilting towards Chelsea.After all, Chelsea is stronger, and Liverpool's fight in the midfield cannot be withstood for a long time.

In the 51st minute, Chelsea got a chance to threaten Liverpool. Ferreira made a direct pass to the right rib of the penalty area. Joe Cole inserted from the middle at high speed. Although Carragher and Hyypia pressed at the same time, he still Found a chance to shoot from a small angle, but unfortunately it just hit the side netting.

Liverpool did not dare to relax in the slightest, but in the 67th minute, Chelsea still ushered in an excellent opportunity.Lampard took a right corner kick, Hyypia headed the ball not far away, and Joe Cole from the outside of the penalty area grabbed the first spot. Before the ball landed, he volleyed vigorously on the left edge of the penalty area. Klander flew to block and missed, but the ball still flew straight to the goal. Hyypia, who turned around to save the ball, stretched his leg on the penalty area line to block the ball, saving Liverpool's fate again.

"Being besieged by Chelsea again and again, but there is nothing to do, it also puts more and more pressure on the Liverpool players.

In the 74th minute, Chelsea still scored a goal to break the deadlock.

Smeding was fouled by Diao on the breakthrough, and he won a free kick on the right side of the front field.In the penalty area, players such as Terry and Gallas attracted the defensive attention of most Liverpool players at the back point, but Lampard, who was serving, cleverly chose to flatten the ball and sent the ball to the middle of the penalty area. Joe Cole promptly He broke out and succeeded in grabbing a point outside the penalty area. Taking advantage of the chaos of the crowd, he directly hooked his right foot and shot the near corner, and the ball went straight to the bottom of the net.

"Chelsea's equalizer! Joe Cole! In great shape!! I don't understand why such a player sits on the bench, he is the most valuable person for Chelsea!"[

Joe Cole, who scored the goal, also ran back and forth proudly, shouting at the fans.This also makes Chelsea fans even happier.Loud shouts and roars echoed throughout the Stamford Bridge Stadium, and goals from local players always made people happier.

Everyone in Liverpool also has mixed feelings at this time.Although it is normal to be surrounded by people and lose the ball, Liverpool is not strong enough, and it is indeed difficult to win, but it is really unpleasant to really watch the victory and slip away.

"The current situation is quite unfavorable to Liverpool. Their midfield has completely fallen after the fierce confrontation. If they can't attack their opponents, then for the rest of the time, they should only have to retreat..."

After this goal, Chelsea's offensive became more violent.But at this time, their attacks also began to have problems.

After scoring the goal, Chelsea's attack became even more rampant.In the 79th minute, Gudjohnsen made a direct pass to the left side of the penalty area. Duff stepped in and did not choose to pass back to Lampard who had already reached the front point. He observed that the goal was empty after Kirkland attacked, so A light kick was given to Joe Cole in front of the empty goal. Faced with this good opportunity to score twice, Joe Cole did not immediately choose a quick she to score the goal. He kicked the challenger who played fancy kicks She kicked the ball into the air.This choice allowed Carragher to feel in time, and he headed the ball over the goal line to make a successful clearance for the team.

But even so, this opportunity still received applause from the fans.

"I now understand why he can only sit on the bench. This mentality determines that he really can't play the main force. Xiao Qiao is not young. If he doesn't know self-control like this, sooner or later his career will be delayed."

Martin Taylor complained about Joe Cole's wasted opportunity, but he didn't pay attention to something more important.

Liverpool still have a chance...Chelsea is starting to be proud!

Benitez, who had judged the situation, made decisive adjustments in the 82nd minute.He replaced Finnan with Milito, reduced a defender and replaced him with a striker, hoping to regain the disadvantage for the team.But his arrangement has not yet taken effect. In the 84th minute, Lampard made a tactical corner kick and made a cross, which almost forced Carragher to score an own goal.Immediately afterwards, Chelsea took a right corner kick, Hyypia failed to clear the siege, Terry headed back and gave the ball to his teammate, but Gudjohnsen, who ran forward to grab the point, was stopped by his teammate who fell to the ground. Pulling and tripping, another missed opportunity.

It seems that Chelsea is indeed proud of many consecutive attack mistakes.Taking advantage of this time, Zhao Yaning finally launched an attack.

In the 87th minute, when Zhao Yaning got the ball, he turned around and gave the ball to Xavi Alonso, and then ran forward immediately.Alonso took a look at Chelsea's position, and immediately judged the proper course of the ball based on the positions of Zhao Yaning and Makelele, and based on their speed.He cleverly kicked the ball to the left. The positions of Makelele and Zhao Yaning were not much different, but Zhao Yaning ran faster. Relying on his speed advantage, Makelele grabbed the spot in one step. Then, without the slightest hesitation, he pulled the ball and turned around. While turning around, he also picked up the ball, then kicked the ball violently, crossed the ball, and sent the ball to the goal!

Chelsea's defense line was too far forward. At this time, no one returned to the defense line in time.Milito was 10 yards in front of the goal, guarded by people, he headed the ball and smashed the ball towards the goal.Cech flew up to stop the ball, but the speed of the ball was too fast, and it still touched his fingertips and flew into the goal!

"Gooool!!!... The referee's whistle blew. The ball was an offside goal." The moment Milito was not offside! It was a misjudgment! With Ferreira trailing behind, the ball should not have been ruled offside, the ball was a misjudgment!"
