ball at foot

Nesta's accidental injury made Milan's morale even lower.

Milan's entire second half of the game was a complete mess, with consecutive conceded goals, a decline in morale, and Milan's morale has been getting worse.This also makes this game more and more unpredictable.

Just now, Zhao Yaning’s impact almost overturned Milan by himself. If it weren’t for Nesta’s defensive advantage, Milan might have lost.But now, what they are facing is yet another downsizing.Now Milan has also begun to realize the mood of the Liverpool people during the first half of the game.

"We still have a chance, don't worry." Maldini was moved to the central defender position, but he still greeted everyone in the team, "It's not a bad thing to fight fiercely. As long as they score one more, their morale will also be improved." It's all gone."

Everyone knows this, but scoring goals is easier said than done! [

"The match between Milan and Liverpool has become more and more a comparison of will and physical strength." Martin Taylor said, "Now, it depends on who can score first."

And at this time, both sides of the game were indeed at a stalemate.On Liverpool's offensive line, only Zhao Yaning has enough breakthrough ability, and on the one hand, Milan has arranged a good enough defensive system for him.As for Milan's attack line, although Kaka has been blocked, Shevchenko is now starting to dribble the ball for surprise attacks. Although this is not a small threat to Liverpool, but now that Crespo is replaced , Milan's frontcourt interspersed with one less player, although Thomasson's frontcourt counter-robbing ability can cause a lot of trouble for Liverpool.However, Milan is tantamount to putting all their hopes on Shevchenko.

Thomason's role is not a terminator, but a good troublemaker.With him here, Shevchenko can indeed play a greater role.But doing so is tantamount to putting all the bets on Shevchenko. Whether he can score is Milan's last hope.

But at this time, Liverpool is also resolute and decisive enough defensively.Although Shevchenko launched an offensive several times, in a short period of time, there was no chance of success.

However, until the end of the 90-minute game, such a victory could not be determined.Although both sides have long been psychologically prepared, but when it really came to overtime, they still felt a lot of pressure.

"After entering overtime, don't think of it as an overtime game, think of it as a golden goal game. As long as we score first, we will be able to win." Benitez said to Looking at the crowd, they also started to make arrangements, "Their skills are very good, our defensive task is very heavy, but we can hold it! They are also very tired, as long as we defend a few attacks, Milan will collapse, they There will be nothing left. We did a good job and we can hold on!"

Benitez spoke loudly, his voice was a bit hurried, but he was still talking about tactics, "Their Crespo is off the field, and the high-altitude ball ability in the frontcourt has dropped badly, give me more ground Defense, don't pay attention to the latest chapter of the high-altitude ball wolf rush! Their backcourt is already tired and can't hold it anymore, Joey, can you still run?"

Zhao Yaning nodded.

"Then run for me, you stir up the front and they all have to move, drag their defense and then Steph can have a chance. They're older, less physically fit, you can do it !"

"There are three 10 minutes, three 10 minutes, guys!" Gerrard also roared, "After these three 10 minutes, the championship is ours! We can take that trophy back, and we will never have to return it in this lifetime. !"

Liverpool already has four Champions Leagues, and if they get one more, it will be five Champions Leagues.With five Champions Leagues, a replica can be kept forever, which is why Gerrard shouted that he didn't have to return it.

After a few high-fives, the Liverpool players once again inspired their fighting spirit.At this time, the game started again.

Soon the offense and defense of the two sides began.Milan chose to attack, but at this time, Liverpool did not shrink the defense, and the two sides accelerated together-now, it is time to desperately.

And Liverpool's defense was ahead of schedule, which made Milan's attack go smoothly.The two sides were entangled in the midfield, and because of the fast pace and physical exertion, there was a lot of technical deformation. The rhythm of the offensive and defensive transitions of both sides became extremely fast. The attack that really took shape disappeared without a trace.

It wasn't until almost a hundred minutes later that Kaka sent the ball to the left with a through ball, so that Seedorf, who was plugged in, received the ball and began to rush over quickly.

But with this kick, Seedorf chose to pass directly. Carragher headed the ball out of the bottom line, and at the same time he fell down again.

"Seedorf's pass wasn't a threat... but it seems like Carragher is hurting again."

Martin Taylor also felt that Liverpool was a little too unlucky: the whole team had suffered injuries all over the season. I thought that Carragher was the strongest among them, but who knew that he had a problem in the last game up.

"The groin near the left leg is strained—Jimmy, you must rest." The team doctor looked at his state and couldn't help but said, "Your groin near both legs is injured. In this state, you It's impossible to play any more. You have to rest."[

"I'm going to rest, you play football?" Carragher smiled instead.

"But... the future is long."

"For me, there is no such thing as a bright future. We have only made it to the final once in 20 years, and it may not be when the next time will be. This game is all I have." Carragher shook his head, "On How, let’s talk after this game.”

Carragher re-entered the field, in exchange for a burst of applause.Both of his legs were already injured. At this time, he was still able to play football, and he was already desperate.

"Carragher continued to play. He has both legs injured now, but he still insisted on participating in the game. Regardless of success or failure, he is the hero of this game."

Soon, Milan's offensive came again.

This time, after the corner kick was taken, he was pushed out of the penalty area.Kaka received the ball and passed it to Shevchenko. Shevchenko rushed up with the ball himself. After passing Haman in a change of direction, facing Carragher's defense, he kicked again. He smashed the ball, and then facing Traore, who was filling in, he passed the ball to Thomason who was plugging in on the right. Thomasson didn't choose to shoot, but waited for Kaka from behind to plug in. He passed back with his foot and gave the ball to Kaka.

Less than five yards away, Kaka immediately took a shot.But in front of him, Carragher immediately made a tackle.

The feet of the two collided, the ball was tackled out of the baseline, and Kaka also fell in the penalty area.When the referee came up, he pointed to the penalty spot without hesitation.

"Penalty kick, the referee whistled a penalty kick! In the 101st minute of overtime, Milan won a penalty kick that could directly kill the game!"

The Milan fans immediately cheered. Shevchenko walked towards the penalty spot with a smile on his face. Winning a penalty at this time suddenly boosted Milan's morale a lot.It also convinced him that Milan would definitely win.

"Give Milan a penalty at this time, it's a bit..." Martin Taylor didn't know what to say.Now it is overtime. The game between the two sides has been ups and downs, which has been testing people's psychological endurance. When it comes to overtime, it has become a competition of willpower and physical strength. At this time, a penalty kick is awarded , Basically, the game that lasted half an hour was concentrated in this moment.

If Milan scores this goal, then Liverpool's will to resist will be exhausted.But if Milan misses a free throw...then it will definitely be Milan that collapsed.

Both sides are now playing football relying on their will, it depends on whose will collapses first.Playing football in overtime can be said to be a double test of physical strength and willpower, but now, this penalty kick is tantamount to throwing everything aside and making a desperate gamble.

"Carragher looked very excited... In the slow-motion, Kaka did push the ball away when Carragher made a tackle. This kick first touched Kaka's foot, and then touched the ball. Indeed. It's a clear penalty kick." Martin Taylor was a little embarrassed.If Carragher hadn't been injured, maybe there would be no problem. However, who can say for sure about such a thing?There are no rules in football games.

Gerrard stepped forward and pulled Carragher away.At this time, it is useless to say that.Although the penalty penalty has affected the situation, it is still fair and there is no problem.Now there is only one problem: how to save the ball.

Dudek's performance in this game is really not very good.Lost three in the half, and in the second half, it was Traore and Carragher's rescue twice to ensure that the goal was not lost.His performance, no matter how you look at it, can only be said to be poor.

The referee stepped aside, before blowing his whistle, and Shevchenko stood on the penalty spot, ready to take a free throw.Milan's players are also preparing to shoot from outside the penalty area.And Shevchenko raised his head at this time, but saw Dudek there, and started preparations.

Rather than saying it was preparation, it was better to say it was a trick: first he jumped twice like doing gymnastics, swung his arms a few times, kicked his thighs, and then stood on the spot, his whole body twisted like noodles.

This action stunned everyone.

"What is he doing?" Gerrard asked outside the restricted area.

"Don't ask me, I don't know him." Reese replied firmly, "Maybe he's insane..."[

But at this time, the referee's whistle has already sounded.

Shevchenko, who was taken aback by Dudek's dance, didn't have too much time to think. He could only run and kick the ball out with one kick.But after he kicked the ball, he noticed that he kicked a penalty kick that went straight to the middle.

What a stupid shot!How can you play in the middle at this time!Dudek hugged the ball directly into his arms, ran up in strides, and Liverpool launched a fast break.

"Dudek did a great job for Liverpool! He saved Shevchenko's penalty!" Martin Taylor shouted happily, "If you only look at the performance in the first eight and 10 minutes, Dudek was shot for a reason Yes. But seeing his current performance, we must say that it is right to let him live!"

Shevchenko, who didn't score a goal, was also stunned, and his heart was blank.It can be said that Liverpool's defense was good when the shot was not scored just now, but now it is his own problem.

I was bewildered by Dudek's dance in front of the goal, and missed an excellent opportunity.

Could it be that God bless Liverpool?

ps: There are changes.
