Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 29
At the beginning of the second half, it was still a situation where Villa besieged and Tranmere defended hard, giving people a sense of sight that was repeated in the first half.

"Ten minutes into the second half, Tranmere is still struggling, it seems that Villa may score the goal in the next second..."

The on-site commentator is neutral, but he is obviously not optimistic that Tranmere can withstand Villa's offensive throughout the game.

……

"Twenty and ten minutes into the second half, Tranmere miraculously persisted for a while. The absence of powerful forward Benteke due to injury left Villa with a lack of a final striker in the frontcourt. We don't know how long it will take. Tranmere's goals are scored..."

After another ten minutes, the field is still stalemate, and the commentator can only justify himself.

"Senderos' long pass was pushed out of the penalty area by the defender again and flew to the center circle arc. Villa's trailing central defender Vlaar received the ball and passed it to Senderos again to prepare a diagonal pass to the penalty area. Tranmere's No. 26 Zhang Mai rushed towards Senderos and kicked the ball ahead of time... Oh! Tranmere's No. 26 did not make a big-footed clearance this time, but took the ball to Villa's backcourt by himself..."

The commentator's voice suddenly became high-pitched.

Senderos spent the entire game comfortably on the right side of the center circle. He found that as long as he didn't break forward, Tranmere's players would not come up to press, so he didn't actively respond to the pass but stayed in place and waited. When a white shadow rushed over, he took the first kick and stabbed the ball behind him.

Danger!The experienced Senderos reached out to hold his opponent, but only caught a handful of air...

Zhang Mai never went up to Senderos, just to let him relax his vigilance.

Seeing that the time was almost up, and the opponent was still playing lazily, Zhang Mai suddenly stepped up to accept a big gift with a smile.

Wiping Senderos, Villa's backcourt was flat, and between Zhang Mai and the goal more than 40 meters away were Villa's goalkeeper and No. 3 Bennett.

Bennett quickly returned to defense from the middle, and had already blocked Zhang Mai's forward line at the front of the penalty area.

Zhang Mai's speed did not slow down, and he dribbled the ball straight to Bennett, pulling Senderos, who was chasing madly behind him, farther and farther.

Bennett was a little apprehensive of Zhang Mai who was rushing at high speed, and quickly put on a posture to prevent collisions, but unexpectedly, Zhang Mai who rushed in front of him did not slow down, but his body swayed from side to side.

Huh!Why is this movement so familiar, is it left or right?
The good thing is the left side. Bennett wanted to turn back his right-leaning body, but found that he fell to the ground involuntarily when his knee hurt. He could only watch the white figure passing by on the left.

Aston Villa's goalkeeper, Guzan, had limited vision. He didn't see how Zhang Mai excelled. He saw Bennett swayed to the ground and Zhang Mai rushed over with the ball.

"Shit!"

Unable to guard the goal line anymore, Gu Zan braced himself and rushed out, and threw himself at Zhang Mai viciously, and was naturally knocked down by the pendulum...

After Zhang Mai passed two people in a row, he easily pushed the ball in the face of an empty goal.

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooool! No. 26 Zhang Mai scored the ball and gave Tranmere the lead in the 72nd minute of the game. Goals don't matter at this moment, look what we saw? Two consecutive pendulums, oh my god It is the first time we have seen such a wonderful pendulum after Ronaldo retired...Twice in a row, let us cheer for Zhang Mai! Cheer for the Eastern Ronaldo in England!"

The commentator was shouting crazily, his voice was so delirious that people forgot that he called Zhang Mai a "new defensive midfielder".

The red and white fans in the stands erupted instantly, the cheers were deafening, and the entire Wembley Stadium was boiling.

Although the Villa fans were very sad, they still generously applauded the opponent's wonderful "pendulum".

Excited, Zhang Mai ran all the way with his teammates, rushed to the front of the stands of the red and white fans, and lined up in a row. They all put on the "30°C back" posture and roared at the sky, which attracted a lot of wild shouts.

At this time, in Villa's penalty area, Bennett and goalkeeper Guzan, who got up from the ground one after another, looked at each other with wry smiles. They didn't feel the resentment and unwillingness after conceding the goal in their hearts. Nima fell on the perfect "pendulum". Nothing to be ashamed of.

Villa's head coach Sherwood couldn't sit still, the bronze that was agreed suddenly became the king, and the siege that was agreed was torn apart by "the pendulum".

There was not much time left, and Sherwood hurriedly rearranged: continue to strengthen the offense, and resolutely prevent Tranmere's No. 26 from having a 1vs1 chance to hold the ball in the frontcourt.

The game restarted, and Villa's players bombarded the Tranmere gate desperately, and stopped talking about midfield cooperation, and hung the ball in the center of the penalty area.

The Tranmere players who were united as one did not hesitate to block it. Coupled with several consecutive saves by goalkeeper Williams and the blocking of the goal post, Villa's hope of breaking the goal seems to be getting slimmer...

"Taking advantage of your illness will kill you!"

Zhang Mai dribbled near the arc of the middle circle and was brought down by Senderos. Tranmere won a free kick in the backcourt.

Zhang Mai stood in front of the ball and whispered to Powell, then gestured to Donnacien on the left, sent the ball to Powell behind him, and then rushed towards Villa's right backcourt, taking Vila away. Pull the two defenders.

Powell did not hesitate after receiving the ball, and flew to Villa's backcourt with a long pass...

"After more than ten minutes of Villa's frenzied attack to no avail, the players became impatient. Senderos put down No. 26 teenager Zhang Mai with a flying shovel...Tranmere started to counterattack, Zhang Mai advanced to the right at high speed, Tranmere's No. 10 Powell made a long pass... No, the ball did not pass to Zhang Mai, but flew to the empty right back field of Aston Villa... No! Not empty, the left back of Tranmere is more than No. [-] Nacien rushed to the ball like a bolt of white lightning."

The commentator's voice became excited.

Donnacien chased the ball when he was almost at the bottom line. Before Villa's full-back blocked it, he made a left-footed inward pass to the center. The ball was half a meter above the ground. It's not easy to handle.

It was difficult for Stockton, who followed in the middle, to catch the ball well under the close defense of Senderos, so he stretched out his foot and missed it, and at the same time shook Senderos beside him.

The ball continued to fly to the right, just at the feet of Zhang Mai, who had thrown off the defender. There was still a shout of "shooting boots", and a direct volley without stopping the ball. The ball flew towards the gate like a sharp arrow .

Villa goalkeeper Guzan had a good line of sight this time. When Zhang Mai kicked his feet, he jumped up and held the ball that was shot to the upper right corner of the goal.

With a sound of "touch", the ball hit the right post and bounced back to the center of the penalty area, causing a commotion in the small penalty area. In the end, Bell Badger, who rushed into the penalty area behind Stockton, won out of the chaos. Poked the ball into the goal.

Steady!In the 88th minute, Tranmere led Villa 2-0.

Overjoyed, Bell Badger took off his jersey, went straight to the red and white stands, and danced hip-hop in front of nearly [-] spectators.

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooool! Another successful counterattack, and finally Tranmere No. 18 Bell Badger scored the ball. It has been 88 minutes. Tranmere has a 99% chance of making history at Wembley Stadium and becoming The first League Two team to break into the FA Cup final in the new century!"

The victory and defeat have been divided, and the commentator will naturally brag about the winner.

The Villa players who were hit hard again seemed to lose their energy all of a sudden, and fell down on the lawn dejectedly.

After the referee awarded a yellow card to Bell Badger, who was excited and undressed, the game continued. The excited Tranmere players turned from defense to offense and began to completely suppress Villa.

In the end, the referee saw that the Villa team, which was behind 0:2, had no fighting spirit, and hurriedly blew the final whistle after 2 minutes of stoppage time.

Zhang Mai still declined the request to attend the press conference with Edwards, but stayed in the locker room to celebrate the victory with his teammates.
