Chapter 708 Yokohama is a blessed land
Behind the goal guarded by Reina is the famous KOP stand at Anfield, where the most loyal Liverpool fans are located. Therefore, the noise here is always the loudest in every home game, but this time they saw the vice-captain Carragher's goal.
Even they themselves didn't know what the reason was, they just kept their mouths half open.
The faces of those fans who have dedicated their lives to Liverpool turned pale in an instant.
For fans of Ai Luo's personal ability, as a sworn enemy, it is more clear.
"Oh! Ai!!" BBC commentator Lineker couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and immediately shouted: "Crotch wearing again!!!"
Equally excited was Premier League commentator Zhan Jun from CCTV-5. He raised his arms and shouted passionately: "Carragher, the mainstay of Liverpool's defense, was pierced through the crotch by Aiello's light ankle change, single-handed!!!"
Another central defender, Skrtel, rushed to make up the defense, but obviously, for Ai Luo's speed... His speed of making up the defense was too slow, so goalkeeper Reina had to abandon the goal from the small penalty area line.
He knew that he was just waiting to die in front of the door, so he might as well go out and fight.
Roar!
Before attacking, he yelled to embolden himself.
At this moment, Ai Luo, who was waving the ball to the penalty area line, suddenly swung his right foot, Reina's body paused subconsciously, and Skrtel skipped a long distance regardless of the distance between the two, and shoveled from the side, trying to interfere with Ai Luo who was shooting.
But... Ai Luo didn't plan to shoot by himself this time, but quickly lowered his swung right foot at high speed, and then passed the ball with the outside of his foot to Drogba, who is now unmarked.
For Ai Luo, who has the highest hit rate in one-handed handling, no one thought that he would pass the ball at a critical time.
Drogba also didn't expect it, but his solid basic skills and his sense of smell response in front of the goal are very strong, and he can easily send the ball into the empty goal with no one to handle.
Even though Reina jumped sideways, but because of the distance, he could only look at the ball and sigh.
Mourinho, who was standing off the field, shook his fist vigorously and scored first in the away game, so it is not a big problem to win the game!
Drogba, who scored the goal, was very excited. He hadn't scored a goal for several rounds. Just now Ai Luo gave himself the chance of a one-handed goal. From this, it is easy to see Ai Luo's support for him.
As the team's top center forward, when Chelsea are facing strong teams, Aiello is always responsible for scoring goals. This also makes Drogba often criticized by the media, saying that he is bullying and afraid of hard work.
But now that he has scored a goal, it means that the rumors of bullying and fearing hard will be broken without attacking.
Therefore, Drogba was very excited, turned around and pointed to Aiello who passed the ball.
Aiello jumped on Drogba's body with a smile, and then punched the Liverpool fans in the stands to show his strength.
Without any surprises, they were booed all over the sky.
But for the leading Chelsea, there are only three words - but it's not an egg.
Mascherano is the one responsible for the conceded goal, so looking at the Chelsea players who were celebrating wildly, he who was already full of confidence at this time became worried about gains and losses. He began to doubt whether he had enough ability to challenge the current No.1 in football...
※※※
Although Chelsea broke the deadlock on the field before the end of the first half, the Liverpool fans in the stands were still full of hope for the team they supported.
"I have to say that Liverpool fans are one of the most loyal fans in the world. When the team loses their goals, they use singing to lead the team on the right track!" As a former Liverpool fan, Zhan Jun once again heard the singing from the stands at Anfield Stadium.
With captain Gerrard's long-range shot missed by a hair, the referee Riley blew the whistle to end the first half.
In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Benitez stood on the field with a serious face and watched the team's performance, while Mourinho sat calmly on the coach's bench with his legs crossed, leisurely.
The on-site director gave the shots to the two people one after another meaningfully.
"From this lens, we can easily see the current situation of both sides of the game. Mourinho's calmness and Benitez's sadness are like Liverpool, who kicked off first in the second half, trying to use all means to equalize the score on the field, while Chelsea's defensive system is very solid. There is no need to deliberately defend at all. As long as they play normally, the problem can be easily solved..."
Chelsea TV commentator Clive Walker said relaxedly.
In fact, the same is true on the field.
Chelsea with Aiello is like having a nuclear weapon. Even if he does not directly participate in the offense, he will partially limit Liverpool's defenders.
Liverpool, on the other hand, has no talents in this area. Torres is more inclined to be a super shooter with the last shot, not a player like Aiello who can solve the entire defense line by relying on his personal ability.
Although Gerrard also has the ability to kill the game, he is restricted by the national team teammate Lampard, and it is difficult to get long-range shots.
They are very familiar with each other, so to speak...the two limit each other.
As the core of Liverpool's frontcourt attack, Gerrard is restricted, which has a great restraint effect on the smooth development of Liverpool's offense.
But Chelsea is different. As long as the ball is successfully passed to Aiello's feet, the offense will pose a threat. Taking the ball anywhere will make Liverpool's defense feel shaky.
Therefore, in the No. 15 minute of the second half, Chelsea expanded the score in the away game.
The frontcourt playmaker Gerrard made a fatal mistake, and the ball passed to Torres was accidentally sent to Terry's feet. The latter did not hesitate, but quickly handed the ball to Ballack.
Ballack directly made a long pass to find Aiello, who opened up the space, while Mascherano, who was defending him, was already thrown away nine blocks away.
Aiello dribbled the ball until 30 meters away from the goal. Carragher had to use foul tactics when defending frontally in order to avoid a single-handed situation again. Therefore, he received his second yellow card of the game and was sent off. At the same time, he also gave Chelsea a free kick in an excellent position.
"The flying snow at the beginning of the year shot the white deer in the sky, and today's Anfield broke the Red Army! Beautiful!!!"
At the moment of scoring, Zhan Jun shouted.
Aiello didn't waste this free kick opportunity and broke through the goal guarded by Reina.
This goal was also his seventh direct free kick this season.
Standing off the field, Benitez shook his head subconsciously. If there was still a chance when he was one goal behind, then the current two-goal lag means there is no chance. As a deadly enemy, he is quite familiar with Mourinho's coaching style. With a two-goal lead, he will definitely strengthen the team's defense and will not leave himself any chance.
really!
Five minutes later, Chelsea made personnel adjustments, replacing two offensive players, Modric and Malouda, with Essien and Mikel, and then pushed Aiello to the second forward position to ensure that there would be no problems in the transition between offense and defense.
"Mourinho's substitution adjustment signal is very obvious, that is, to maintain the advantage of the two goals until the end of the game." BBC commentator Lineker nodded and said: "Leading by two goals in the away game, there is nothing wrong with making such an adjustment. After all, winning the game at the least cost is the kingly way."
Seeing this substitution, Benitez already knew he had no chance.
Chelsea's current midfield four are all muscular hunks. Except for Gerrard who can fight against them, the bodies of Xavi Alonso and Mascherano are completely at a disadvantage.
In addition, Chelsea's lineup is not a purely defensive formation, but an anti-reverse formation that compresses counterattacks to the extreme. Therefore, Liverpool dare not go all out. The home team is too familiar with Aiello's personal ability.
As long as Ai Luo is present, it is equivalent to a sharp knife stabbing Liverpool's heart, making them dare not act rashly.
最终，切尔西在客场2：0击败主队利物浦，从而实现从2007-2008赛季到2008-2009赛季的六连杀！再次刷新两队交战的新历史。
……
The next day, the "Liverpool Echo" broke the news that Liverpool executives gave Benitez an ultimatum.
Because the points gap between the league and Chelsea at the top of the list has been widened to 13 points, the club means to shift their focus to European competitions, which means that if Benitez fails to win the Champions League this season, he will be fired.
However, these are not what Ai Luo cares about. What he cares about is that the World Cup qualifier will be a guest in Yokohama, Japan ten days later.
The previous Chinese national team may not be as good as the Japanese national team, but the current Chinese national team can definitely wrestle wrists.
For example, in the 2006 World Cup, the Australian team, which was able to torture the Japanese team to death, would be at a disadvantage against the Chinese team. Therefore, many Chinese media paid special attention to this game. Seeing the increase in the number of overseas players, they also feel elated.
There will be a head-to-head confrontation with the Japanese team in the near future, which is extremely important for every Chinese player!
At 3:0 p.m. local time on the 11th in the UK, Chelsea played against the newly promoted Hull City at home. With Aiello's one pass and two shots, the team helped the team win the opponent [-]-[-] at home and stabilized the scoring lead at [-] points.
At 12 o'clock that night, Ai Luo boarded a direct flight from London to Tokyo, and then transferred to Yokohama for a round with the national team, preparing for the World Cup qualifier against Japan on the [-]th.
For the city of Yokohama, Ai Luo still has a lot of feelings. At the end of last year, he won the Club World Cup at the Yokohama International Arena.
In other words... this is a blessed land.
