Chapter 183: The Transition to the Decisive Battle
"With only about 15 minutes to go until the end of the 90 minutes, it's time to test the courage and experience of both teams. No one would take a risk at such a time, because if you make a mistake, it can mean failure. But if the venture is successful, it can mean victory. Of course, they also have the option to drag the game into extra time or even a penalty shootout. But I don't think either team would want to do that, because at that point, the game will be out of control and anything unexpected will happen. Looking at the anxious situation on the field, Lineker spoke eloquently.
If Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti could have heard him, they would have agreed. At this time, they are all caught in the dilemma of whether to take risks or seek stability. Rao is very experienced in coaching, and they don't dare to make a rash decision at this moment, so they coincidentally give the choice to the core players they trust on the field, and let them decide the future direction of the game with the deepest feelings.
If in AC Milan, this person is Pirlo, then in Chelsea, there is no doubt that this person is the old Thunder. At this moment, their decision to sit down determines the direction of the two teams in the future. And in the end, the two of them made very different choices. If the calm Pirlo chose to be steady, then the young and vigorous old Lei chose to be aggressive.
Although the longer the game drags on, the physical disadvantage of the AC Milan veterans will become more apparent, which will also be beneficial to Chelsea. But compared to this, Lao Lei is more worried that once the game enters extra time or even a penalty shootout, the composure and sophistication of this group of "old guys" are likely to teach the budding Chelsea a hard lesson. Therefore, he is unwilling to give these veterans time to breathe at this time. Defeat them with one blow. At least in his mind, that's the best option for Chelsea.
Based on the choices made by the core of both sides, the game quickly took on this shape, and the more proactive Chelsea began to form a siege against AC Milan. In the 78th minute of the second half, Chelsea were awarded three corners in a row. Thereinto. The first two times were the first to be grabbed by Stamm and Nesta in the penalty area and pushed out of the bottom line.
In the face of the poor effect of the aerial battle in the penalty area, Chelsea began to take the initiative to change. This time, before the corner was issued, Lao Lei found Frank Lampard, who took the main corner, and whispered a few words to him. He then walked to the edge of the penalty area to prepare for the corner. The little muttering between the two caught the attention of the AC Milan players. It's just that at this time, they don't have time to think about it. But just in case, they deliberately let Gattuso follow Lao Lei in case he plays any tricks.
After giving a gesture with his hands raised, Lampard activated the corner kick. Subsequently. The ball drew a wonderful outside arc in the air, and when it was over the penalty area, it began to deviate towards the edge of the big penalty area. "Sure enough!" Gattuso, who was looking at the direction of the football's flight, said secretly in his heart. Before that, he had a premonition that Lao Lei would play some strange tricks this time. Seeing that the football was really heading towards Lao Lei, he was deeply attached to Lao Lei in his heart, and he didn't dare to relax.
Lao Lei, who was firmly stuck in Gattuso's position, still took the lead in stopping the football with his chest, but Gattuso, who was close to him, kept making physical contact with him and did not let him handle the ball properly at all. In such a situation. Old Ray lifted his right leg and pushed the ball with his knee, landing it further away from him than he had planned. Subsequently. He sped up in a big stride, temporarily widening the distance between him and Gattuso.
The advantage of being the first to start allowed Lao Lei to gain a moment of free time to handle the ball. Facing the football that bounced up just after landing, Lao Lei did not make any adjustments this time. After firmly nailing his left foot to the field, he went with his right foot to the ball and came straight to a half-turn volley from the edge of the box. It was a very difficult shot. But at this time, Lao Lei, who was fully committed to the game, was full of confidence. He is confident that his shot will have a good effect, once the game is in the middle of a life or death moment. His self-confidence has always been as inexplicably abundant as it is now, and this is the main reason why he is often able to step up when it matters most.
This is a fluid and continuous set of movements. Let Gattuso not have any chance of destruction. By the time his blockade arrived, the ball was already flying like a cannonball out of the chamber, flying towards the gate guarded by Dida at great speed. Because the ball was so fast, Terry, who was in the way of the football, could only instinctively make a gesture of bowing his head to avoid the dangerous shell.
"Shoot! Oh! Goalpost! Goalpost!! Luck was on the side of the Italians, and the crossbar rejected Reimaa's world wave. In the face of his sudden cold arrow, Dida didn't have time to react, what a pity! This damn beam, I'm going to tear it down after the race! When he saw the ball pop off the line with a "bang", the Chelsea commentator said with frustration.
At this time, there are many Chelsea fans who think the same thing as the commentator. The Chelsea fans, who had just stood up to meet the goal, could only sit down with their heads covered in regret at this moment, and cursed the unknown beam in their hearts. Their sighs of regret echoed over the court like sad arias at this moment, making people feel sad. Even Mourinho, who was on the sidelines, shook his hand angrily at this moment, and couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
On the contrary, it is the joy of AC Milan fans, players and coaches for the rest of their lives. At this time, the frightened Dida couldn't help but jump up and patted the beam, which was still trembling, as if thanking the benefactor who saved his life.
However, there was one person who was very different from them, and that was Gattuso. Just released the cruel words of not letting Lao Lei score a goal, and let Lao Lei get a shot that hit the crossbar right under his nose, which made the Italian titan's face a little hot at this moment. Then his shame quickly escalated into shame, when he heard the words of Lao Lei on the side, "Hey, so you are here." Where did you just go?! I can't even find you. ”
Looking at the innocent old Lei in front of him, Gattuso almost couldn't help but wave his casserole-sized fist. The naked, undisguised mockery in Lao Lei's eyes pierced his heart like a sharp arrow, and stimulated his self-esteem. In order not to control yourself. Gattuso turned and walked away, out of sight and out of mind. But the burning anger in his eyes showed that the story between him and Lao Lei was not over yet.
After the resumption of the game, the morale-boosting Chelsea were encouraged by the crossbar shot by Lao Lei, and the morale of Chelsea began to gradually increase again. In the 81st minute of the second half. They are making a comeback again. This time, after attracting the attention of AC Milan's multi-player defenders, Lao Lei immediately shifted the football to Robben's feet, acting as a decoy. Against Cafu, Robben once again made a strong bottom. It's a pity. Drogba, who received his cross, was not quite on top of his power under Nesta's interference. And this is what led to zhì, although the football was pushed to the far corner, Dida still held the football in his arms without danger.
Then, despite a number of missed chances, Chelsea could feel that they were only a layer away from breaking through the door of AC Milan. Because of this, instead of feeling frustrated at this time, they launched a more violent attack on the AC Milan defense as excitedly as if they had beaten chicken blood. In such a situation. AC Milan's counter-attacks were all strongly suppressed.
During this time, Chelsea, who were already gaining momentum, blocked two threatening counter-attacks from AC Milan at the cost of aggressive counter-attacks and two yellow cards. Then. AC's counterattack is no longer a threat. In such a situation, Chelsea also launched a siege against AC Milan with more brazenness. Lineker was shocked to comment: "Chelsea are crazy! They must be crazy!! At this time, they are simply a bunch of crazy people, how dare they launch such an attack at such a moment. ”
In fact. Not only him, but even the Chelsea fans. Even Jose Mourinho was terrified by Chelsea's fierce attack at the moment. But. They can't do anything at the moment but pray for the players on the field. In such a situation, Mourinho cannot make an order to retract such a demoralization blow. He clenched his fists nervously while secretly scolding in his heart: "Stinky boy! If it's not successful, see how I clean you up!! ”
However, the elder Ray and the other Chelsea players on the pitch were unaware of the nervousness of the onlookers, who were already fully engaged in the game. At this time, I don't have any thoughts in my mind except for goals and victories.
In the 85th minute of the second half, Lao Lei took the ball again in front of the court to face Gattuso. When Seedorf no longer dared to rush up, he resolutely chose to go it alone. A stunning flick of the bull's tail made Gattuso reluctantly choose a tactical foul again, this time he stretched out his foot and tripped Lao Lei.
In the end, the referee did not choose to show a yellow card despite the Chelsea players' agitated complaints, and Gattuso was lucky to escape again. Thankfully, there was a free-kick from around 23 metres in excellent front, otherwise Chelsea might not have had a hard time accepting the decision.
"23 meters free kick! This is already within the range of Reima, can he still turn the tide?! Can you still be the one who stands up?!! Just like before. ......" With the commentator's words, everyone looked at Lao Lei standing in front of the ball. If the gaze is weighty, according to Lao Lei, he would already be burdened by now.
At this moment, the stadium is dead, the fans are dead, and the whole world is dead!
At the same time, the breath is heavy, the air is heavy, and the whole world is heavy!!
In the dead silence and heaviness, only the narrator's voice is transmitting and echoing!
"Reima! Shot!! Oh, AC Milan's wall blocks his direct attack! After the ball bounced back, it fell to the feet of Reima again to see what he would do with it. Pour... Barb shot?! Barb shot!! Barb shot!! al!!! What happened?! What's going on?!! I don't believe it! I don't believe it!! I don't believe it!!! 23-meter barb shot! How can it be?! How could there be such a goal?! How could there be such a goal?!! ……”
At this point, if the narrator had the ability to read minds, he would have discovered that he was not the only one who had such thoughts.
At this moment, everyone was shocked, except for the blue number 13 who was looking crazy!
When he got up, he turned his head and saw Gattuso, who was about to come to guard again.
In such a situation, he didn't go to celebrate wantonly, but just came to Gattuso and showed a hideous face at him!
"Where are you?! Where are you?!! Where are you?!!! ”
"Where are you !!?"
"I can't see it!!!"
Under the stunned gaze of the red and black figure in front of him, his face was fierce and hideous, his deformed face, his flushed face, his exposed green tendons, and his open mouth......
Like a mad beast! Crazy!! (To be continued) R466
