Chapter 596: Count the seconds and break the spell
Gao Xiaodong was like a hanging, high to resist, almost all Chelsea's shots were blocked, and the very few shots that escaped Gao Xiaodong's clutches were blocked by the goalpost. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Seeing that the 90-minute game was about to pass, the on-site commentator Reka was relieved, and he sighed: "Although we don't know what Orlandoni will be like when he plays, I believe that he will never do better than Gao Xiaodong, in a sense, Gao Xiaodong plays better than Cesar."
Because Gao Xiaodong's range of activity is very broad, almost 30 meters of dangerous areas are his range of activity, of course, this is because Gao Xiaodong is short, he must take the initiative to reduce the number of opponents' shots, but this kind of goalkeeper play is groundbreaking, I hope Xiaodong will start and finish well, hold the last few minutes, and leave the last little spark for Inter Milan's promotion. ā
Sky TV commentator Mazzola looked at the fourth official holding up the sign with three minutes of stoppage time, and he said with great regret: " It is estimated that the final score will not change much, Inter Milan played one less, and it was lucky to be able to keep a draw, Xiaodong's performance was decisive, but Inter Milan's 45-year history of not winning against Premier League teams continues, and the embarrassment of not winning in the knockout round for three years is also continuing, which will have a huge impact on the psychology of Inter Milan players, we have hoped to break this curse, but Cesar's car accident has ruined Inter Milan's hope of winning at home. ā
On the sidelines, Carlo Ancelotti was waving forward to keep his players on the offensive and see if he could score another goal.
Mourinho is also waving forward, allowing his players to spread out and press the opposition without shrinking around the box.
The more you need to defend, the more you have to go out and press, which is Mourinho's characteristic.
The madman knows very well that in the final moments, the defenders are prone to nervousness, and at this time, the more they let the ball away from the penalty area, the safer it is, and if they are lucky, they may be able to complete the steal counterattack.
In the first minute of stoppage time, Malouda cut across to the edge of the box and suddenly got up with a cold shot, but the ball was blocked by Lucio's outstretched foot.
Stankovic followed up with a long pass to Samuel Eto'o and cut forward quickly.
Samuel Eto'o used his pace to break through from the flank, but when he tried to cross, he found Stankovic alone.
Samuel Eto'o had no choice but to go it alone with the ball, but the ball was disrupted by his former team-mate Belletti.
Inter Milan were awarded a corner.
When McCone came over to take a corner, Eto'o angrily yelled at Cambiasso and Muntari: "You two should come up with at least one, do you want a draw?" ā
Cambiasso and Muntari were silent by Eto'o, they had just been conservative.
However, there are not conservative at this time, looking at the time of just over two minutes, Gao Xiaodong let the honest man Zanetti drag behind, and he rushed to the edge of the Chelsea penalty area to look for long-range shots and opportunities to rush to the top.
When it is necessary to score, the goalkeeper goes to the opponent's penalty area at the last moment to compete for a header, because the goalkeeper is often tall and has a lot of opportunities to grab the header, but Gao Xiaodong is only 1.73 meters tall, and he still makes his teammates very worried when he comes to compete for the header.
Although it is extremely unlikely that the goalkeeper will score, there are many fans who are good at it, and they are all there to chant: "Go one! high!"
After fifty or sixty minutes of relaxation, the Chelsea people finally got nervous, with just over two minutes left, and at this point basically whoever concedes the goal loses, whether you have more or fewer people.
Hilario loudly instructed his teammates to stand and not give the opponent the slightest chance of scoring.
McConn takes a corner kick and the ball arcs into the box.
The situation in the penalty area has become more chaotic, and everyone is desperately fighting for positions while staring up at the ball and calculating the landing point.
Gao Xiaodong quickly rushed to the penalty area, trying to grab the landing point, but Chelsea's defense was very tight, and even did not let go of Gao Xiaodong, the original attacking player, when Gao Xiaodong rushed to the front of the penalty area, Lampard suddenly flashed out in front of Gao Xiaodong to prevent Gao Xiaodong from rushing into the penalty area.
The battle for the top of the corner kick is a matter of an instant, Gao Xiaodong saw that the front position was stuck, and knew that there was no chance to fight for the top, he did not forget that he was the goalkeeper, and no matter who grabbed the landing point, he turned around decisively, turned his head and ran back.
However, it was such a coincidence, Gao Xiaodong didn't run a few steps, and the ball was quickly attacked by goalkeeper Hilario, and his fists hit the penalty area, which happened to hit Gao Xiaodong's back.
Gao Xiaodong was smashed and exclaimed, he turned his head to see that the ball really bounced to the side of his body, and the players in the penalty area were running towards him in a swarm.
If it is a real goalkeeper, he will definitely kick it out of the sideline and run back to his penalty area quickly.
And Gao Xiaodong is an all-attribute player, at this moment, the thoughts in his mind are all shots, shots, and shots.
The ball was more than 30 meters away from the goal, which was a little farther than Gao Xiaodong's range, but at this time, where would Gao Xiaodong still consider the range, he half-turned and ran two steps sideways, and at the moment when the ball hit the ground and bounced, he rounded his right leg and kicked the ball hard.
The ball was like a missile out of the chamber, and like a sharp arrow off the string, it rose from the ground and flew to the upper right of the goal with a roar.
Originally, after Chelsea goalkeeper Hilario hit the ball out, the fans in the stands felt that the game was almost over, and many people had already stood up and were ready to leave, when they suddenly saw the ball hit Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong turned around and caught up with the ball and shot directly.
The fans were amazed, excited and nervous, holding their breath and their eyes moving quickly with the ball.
The players were also stunned, except for Drogba, who was closest to the ball, who jumped in vain, and everyone else could only watch the two goalkeepers talk directly.
Mourinho, who was on the sidelines, closed his eyes when Gao Xiaodong shot the goal, drew a cross on his chest with his hand, and prayed for God to bless.
Ancelotti stared blankly at the flying ball, her mind blank.
When Gao Xiaodong shot the goal, goalkeeper Hilario just got up after hitting the ball out, and when he saw Gao Xiaodong shoot directly, he was so frightened that he quickly moved to the left and flew to the ball.
Ill-prepared and inaccurate in judging the speed, spin and trajectory of the ball, he jumped to the top, stretched out his arms and threw all his strength into the ball, but it was still a little short, and the ball flew past his fingertips and flew into the net against the post.
2:1
In the last minute of stoppage time, goalkeeper Gao Xiaodong broke through the gate guarded by Hilario with a shocking long-range shot from 35 meters away.
After scoring the goal, Gao Xiaodong took off his jersey and ran frantically to the stands, at this time, everyone found that Gao Xiaodong had a line of words written in front of him and behind him, "Die, curse!" "Victory belongs to Inter Milan!"
"High!"
"High!"
"God high!"
The fans in blue and black jerseys in the stands cheered and jumped, as if the silent sea woke up, rushing and roaring, and vented the depression that had been suppressed for 45 years.
45 years! We've finally broken the spell!
Moratti in the VIP box burst into tears.
45 years have passed in a snap of a finger, and the second young master who sat next to his father and cheered for the team is now in his old age. He hasn't waited for a Champions League title yet, but he's at least waiting for a knockout win against a Premier League side.
Mourinho opened his eyes after hearing the cheers like a tsunami, and he didn't need to look at the scoreboard to know that Gao Xiaodong's long-range shot had scored, which meant that Inter Milan had won, breaking the curse of not being able to win a Premier League team for 45 years.
Playing one less and defeating opponents stronger than himself, Mourinho understands what it means, whether he can win the championship in the end or not, the snake queen of the big international era of the year, she has awakened!
The on-site commentator Reka was roaring, and there was already a cry in his roar, "Goal! Goal! Gao Xiaodong scored! The goalkeeper scored! The last minute! No! The last second! Inter Milan counts the second! Forty-five years later, Inter Milan finally ushered in the first knockout victory against the Premier League team! The biggest benefit of victory is to eliminate the loser's fear of defeat! The curse of Inter Milan is gone, they are like snake elves who have been freed from bondage, and they will surely shock the world. ā
Everyone's Chelsea people were dumbfounded, they couldn't figure out why a game that was supposed to be a big win over Inter Milan turned into a loss, is this fate? Is it the fate of the Premier League team to suppress Inter Milan for 45 years?
