Chapter 172 The Power of the Star

Watching Chen Xiao with the ball continue to move forward, Benitez on the sidelines yelled anxiously at the Liverpool players on the field. Gerrard and Hypia knew that Chen Xiao could no longer be taken down, and Chen Xiao would have more options. So Gerrard gave up on Lampard, who was defending him, and prepared to join hands with Hyypia to block Chen Xiao's breakthrough route. Gerrard's frontal defense, Chen Xiao's continuous cycling and then suddenly connected to the Marseille gyration, this series of technical moves made Gerrard pass at once. In fact, it was not because of Gerrard's poor defense, but because he did not expect that Chen Xiao would choose to break through him at all, so he focused his defense on Chen Xiao's pass.

After the continuous change of direction, Chen Xiao made a very concealed cross pass and gave the ball to Lampard who had been running with him. After handing over the ball, Chen Xiao immediately went forward into the penalty area.

1 to 0, in stoppage time in the first half, Chelsea took advantage of Chen Xiao's goal to take the lead.

After scoring the goal, Chen Xiao ran directly under the stands of the home fans, raised his index finger and put it on his mouth. This action immediately made the Liverpool fans very angry. In an instant, a lot of debris floated down from the stands.

The black-faced referee ran directly to Chen Xiao's side. Although he really wanted to take out a yellow card, he thought that this kid is now the most popular fried chicken in the Premier League, hey!Endure it!

"Hey, don't do these actions to provoke the fans again, OK? Otherwise, I can only tell you to calm down." The referee warned Chen Xiao seriously.

"OK! OK!" Chen Xiao smiled indifferently and said to the referee.

The noise made by the home fans throughout the first half made Chen Xiao a little annoyed. Chen Xiao also really understood why Anfield Stadium is known as one of the scariest stadiums in Europe. Chen Xiao did not experience this kind of away pressure in the Bundesliga. The Liverpool fans in the stands have been greeting the Chelsea players with the most ugly words since the beginning. Especially Chen Xiao, who is Asian, has always been the focus of Liverpool fans.

Regardless of the debris thrown from the stands, Chen Xiao turned around and hugged his teammates to celebrate the goal. Chen Xiao ignored his actions and made the fans in the stands even more angry. Many fans would have rushed into the stadium to tear Chen Xiao apart if it weren't for the extremely strong security forces at Anfield.

Mourinho on the sidelines celebrated Chen Xiao's goal even more unrestrainedly. A sliding knee made people even have the illusion that this is not an ordinary league game, but an important final.

The referee stopped Chelsea's celebration after protests from the Liverpool players.

The game restarted and Liverpool kicked off.

But to the disappointment of the home fans, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half after kick-off.

The Chelsea team returned to the locker room with a one-goal lead. There was only half a game left. This one-goal lead gave Mourinho more options for tactics. For Liverpool, which was behind, there was no other way to go. Only offense was the only option, just like the words that Liverpool fans often say, "This is Anfield."

The 15-minute break passed quickly. During the intermission, the coaches of both teams chose to make substitutions at the same time.

Chelsea replaced Makelele with Echin.

On the Liverpool side, Morientes replaced Traore, and Riise returned to the left-back position. Liverpool changed from a 4231 defensive counterattack formation to a 4132 offensive formation. Gerrard was mentioned by Benitez as an avant-garde position.

From this tactical arrangement, we can see Liverpool's offensive determination.

At the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially began.

After the start, Liverpool crazily launched an attack on Chelsea's defense amid the cheers of all the home fans at the scene. The intensity of the attack was very high. Even if Mourinho had expected this during the intermission and made arrangements, Chelsea's defense still looked precarious, giving people a feeling that it might be broken at any time.

But this is exactly this feeling that makes Liverpool's offense even more crazy, and the formation has unknowingly pressed near the middle circle.

If you want to take what you want, you must give it first. Some Liverpool players above did not realize that they were in a dangerous situation. Benitez on the sidelines felt that something was wrong, because Chelsea’s defense line, which seemed to be shaky all the time, remained in this state. It's like fishing.

However, it will take some time for the players to understand the intentions of the coach on the sidelines during the game, not to mention that Liverpool's players are a bit superior. In desperation, Benitez can only choose to make adjustments, but when the substitute players are warming up, Chelsea finally found the best time to pick up the fishing rod.

In the 73rd minute of the game, Chen Xiao and Thiago teamed up to steal the ball at Alonso's feet near the center circle. After Chen Xiao handed the ball to Thiago, he went straight to the frontcourt.

Liverpool's defense had already been overwhelmed near the center circle. After the steal, Thiago didn't even dribble the ball, so he passed it to Chen Xiao with a straight kick.

The moment Chen Xiao received the ball was basically level with Liverpool's defense line. Chen Xiao slammed the ball vigorously and directly accelerated his speed to the highest. No one in Liverpool's defense line could stop Chen Xiao. Now all Liverpool people pin their hopes on Reina, but will Chen Xiao let this happen?

Chen Xiao directly passed Reina with his pendulum on the penalty area line, and then pushed the ball into the empty goal.

2 to 0, this goal allowed Chelsea to basically win the victory.
