Chapter 118: Get a yellow card at the beginning

'We've got the starting line-ups for both sides. Benitez played his best in this revenge battle, with a 4-4-1-1 formation. The starters in all positions, nothing has changed, and it is the formation that Liverpool has maintained this season. On the other hand, Chelsea, although Mourinho still sent a 4-2-3-1 formation, he made a lot of changes in personnel. It's not the strongest squad, but I don't think Chelsea will give up the Carabao Cup to Liverpool.

Especially Reima, his previous oath has long been circulated in world football, and he will not do this kind of slap in the face. Now it's up to Jose Mourinho to set up his tactics for Chelsea, who just flew back to England from Catalonia three days ago.

In addition, it will be interesting to see if Chelsea can once again break the spell of the South dressing room at the Millennium Stadium. Considering that only Arsenal and Stoke City have done so before that, can Chelsea become a third team? Let's wait and see! Okay, now the players from both sides are playing! ……”

Along with the introduction of the commentator, the players from both sides also lined up on the court and waited for the end of the pre-match ceremony. Because it is the final of the League Cup, the pre-match ceremony is much more complicated and cumbersome than the average league. The music in his ears didn't attract Old Lei's attention, and his eyes were just staring at the championship trophy placed at the entrance of the players' tunnel. While the Carabao Cup title isn't essentially appealing to the current old Ray, today's opponents have changed that. To snatch the title from Liverpool in person, that alone. It's already attractive enough for Lao Lei. In his words, it's as cool as a "slashing enemy".

Just when Lao Lei was about to be unable to suppress the boiling blood in his body. The pre-match ceremony was finally over. You must know that Lao Lei has endured a lot of hard work, and his attention has been completely focused on the upcoming finals. He didn't even remember the name and appearance of the senior FA official who had just shook hands with him, just casually gave it a few perfunctory times. Before the captains of both sides start guessing the coins, the handshake between the two players, which is the usual preceding all matches, is first performed as a sign of friendship, regardless of whether the two sides are sincere or not.

But this scene has fundamentally changed in this final. Except for the players on both sides, who were teammates of the national team, the rest of the players did not extend their hands to shake hands, not even a symbolic touch of hands, and suddenly the smell of gunpowder in the air became thick, and it felt as if the air could spontaneously combust. Such a scenario. Naturally, you can't escape the camera. Even before the official start of the game, it has already aroused the interest and attention of all those who watched the game. Such-for-tat scenes are what they like to see the most, and the happy scenes are only liked by women and children.

Among them, Lao Lei is the most eye-catching. The hottest player in the world in recent days, with his hands behind his back and his eyes staring straight ahead, stood there comfortably. The Liverpool players who passed in front of him seemed to be a cloud of air. Completely unnoticed by him. Looking at this scene, the camera at the scene also found Kayla and Cintia who were sitting in the VIP stand with deep meaning, and their intentions were self-evident.

In front of the camera, Cindia's face was nervous. The concern and worry in his eyes are very obvious. She hugged Miki tightly with one hand and Joseph's big hand with the other. It seems like it's pushing too hard. She grabbed Joseph's hand and it was white and bloodless. But I don't seem to be aware of it. just stared at Lao Lei stunned. Obviously, this ordinary and ordinary mother. Doing what every mother does, worrying about her child.

Although she knew that her son was extraordinarily good at football, she couldn't help but worry. Because she also knew the misery of the game, she couldn't help but worry when she thought of those foul shots on the football field she saw on TV. If she could, she would rather her son be at peace with others than have to ask for it for them. But she knows her son's personality, and since he started playing professionally, she has noticed that her son's personality has changed drastically, and she doesn't know why he has become decisive, determined, and even a little stubborn. After knowing that she couldn't change Lao Lei's mind, she could only come to the scene and cheer for her son Momo.

Next to her, Joseph and Kayla are constantly comforting her, but not very well. Only Xiao Ji didn't feel anything, she was still clenching her little fists, and kept shouting coquettishly: "Brother, beat them flat!" When she was young, she didn't know what danger was brewing in this game, only that her "brother" was protecting her and standing up for her, just like when she was a child. Among them, as the third woman, Kayla is different from them, but quite similar to Joseph's thoughts and looks, although worried, but more expectation, encouragement, pride and pride. "That's my man, and he's going to stand up for me!" Looking at Lao Lei, who was standing straight in the field, Kayla's eyes were full of the sweetness of a little woman.

Just when everyone was still talking about the history of feuds between Lao Ray and Liverpool fans, the game officially began at the referee's whistle. In the first half, Liverpool kicked off first, and as soon as they came up, all the members of Liverpool looked aggressive, and launched a fierce encirclement of Chelsea with all their might. Although they were humiliating defeats in the first two meetings, after a period of excess, they have turned their first two defeats into motivation and are waiting to get back in this dominant final.

So at the beginning of the game, the players on both sides directly launched a white-hot white-knives battle, especially near the midfield, a fierce rhythm battle, and the intensity of the physical confrontation was very large. You come and go, without the slightest concession. Under such a physical confrontation, the emotions and anger of the players on both sides are naturally difficult to control and suppress. In the 3rd minute after the opening, the first clash of the game took place on the field.

Robben, who had just returned from injury in this game, first retreated to near midfield to help the team fight for the ball. At this point, he uses a larger sliding shovel movement. Leaving the football at Garcia's feet also made the Spaniard fall to the grass in a daze. But. Before Robben could get up and take control of the football, he himself fell to the ground as well. At this time. Gerrard ran over like a 100-meter sprint, slamming his shoulder into Robben and about to break the ball at Robben's feet.

At this time, Garcia had not yet gotten up, and with Robben, two people fell to the ground. Soon after, Gerald became the third person to fall to the ground. When he was about to step on the football, Lao Lei returned the favor with a tooth for a tooth and rushed forward with all his might. Collided directly with him. With mental arithmetic or not, Gerald was like being hit by a car, and after flying slightly, he fell backwards on the grass.

This series of intense physical confrontations, like sparks, suddenly detonated the Millennium Stadium like a powder keg, whether it was on the field, on the sidelines, or in the south stand. It was still the North Stand, and the air seemed to burn like it was burning in an instant. At this moment, fans on both sides were pulling their throats and booing desperately. Although they booed not with one person. But the sound does not distinguish between friend and foe, and the voices of the two sides are sandwiched together, almost like the sound of a sonic boom of a supersonic aircraft. Irritation of a person's eardrum.

And on the field, the scene was just as chaotic. The players on both sides are the same. Qi Qi quickly gathered to the scene of the incident, blaming and scolding each other. Among them is the hot-tempered Carragher and Terry. It's even been a push by Xiao Cheng dΓΉ. In an instant, without any preparation, the referee became the busiest person on the field, just like a firefighter, fighting fires everywhere. At this moment, even the security personnel and police at the scene were nervous, for fear that the fans on both sides would not be able to control their feelings and start making trouble.

Among them, Lao Lei has naturally become the focus of criticism from Liverpool players. Although there are many teammates around him who are covering for him, there are still many Liverpool players who want to find him a theory. The surroundings of Lao Lei have become the strongest place on the field with the smell of gunpowder, and there is a tendency to detonate. In this intense atmosphere and crowd, Lao Lei, as the protagonist, is the most relaxed and relaxed in expression and mood.

He didn't have the patience to talk to the Liverpool players and didn't think of moving his position. He was like a nail, nailed in place, no matter how chaotic the surroundings were, he stood still. There was a reason for this, because the place where he was standing now was the best place to see Gerald, who was lying on the ground and being treated by the team doctor. For the sake of this, he would never want to move this.

As if there was nothing around, he just craned his neck and smiled coldly, as if he were watching animals in a zoo. Seeing that Gerald didn't seem to have much of a problem and was already able to get up, he also slurped his mouth a few times, as if he was not satisfied with it, and the corners of his mouth were tilted down to show his dissatisfaction.

And his remarks made Liverpool extremely dissatisfied. Hyypia even rushed in front of him and scolded angrily: "Boy, do you want to die?!" Raised by the cousin, do you want to die of a soft egg?! ”

Hyypia's words finally made Lao Lei react. He raised his chin slightly, glancing disdainfully at the furious Hyypia. And without giving in, he arched forward, and with his chest he pushed Hypia out of the way.

Looking at Hyypia, who was knocked away by himself by half a step, Lao Lei suddenly pointed at his nose and scolded angrily: "Do you want to hit me?!" Sissy, come here! Call here!! If you're still a man, just call!! Yes!!!!

If you don't have the guts, don't me off! Otherwise, I promise you'll regret it!

I promise!! ”

Hyypia, who came to find the theory of old thunder, instead of asking for any bargains, was suppressed by old thunder like a beast. Looking at Old Ray's cold eyes like beasts, Hyypia instinctively flinched, and at this moment he even had the illusion that he was about to be killed, and he suddenly seemed to be frozen and motionless.

Lao Lei, who saw this qiΔ“ in his eyes, shook his head without concealing it, and his disdain and contempt were overflowing.

However, Lao Lei, who shocked Hyypia, did not escape the referee's punishment after all, a resolute yellow card.

"Chelsea's No. 13, pay attention to your movements and feelings, don't try to challenge my penalty line." As he spoke, the referee suddenly realized that Lao Lei didn't pay attention to his words at all, and he was doing something else.

He kept looking at Gerrard, who seemed to be safe on the sidelines, and when Gerrard looked at him as well, he suddenly raised his right hand and moved five fingers to give Gerrard a provocative greeting.

During this time, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, a cold and dangerous smile.

Then, he moved his mouth and made a mouth shape.

"This is just the beginning, friend!" (To be continued......)
