Chapter 675: Costa! (Ask for a commuter pass)
Gareth. Bell made a gesture to break through, but he kicked his foot and knocked it with his heel.
Deft and hidden heel knock and the ball was passed to Ballack.
The German veteran did not hesitate at all, and directly passed diagonally to Deisler.
In this matter, Liverpool's left side was a large vacancy, and Deisler advanced directly with the ball, and when he approached the penalty area, he made a gesture to cut inside.
Konchesky, who has been 'fighting and retreating' to defend Deisler and does not dare to blindly kick out, has no way to retreat, and if he does not intercept, Deisler will enter the penalty area.
Konchesky made a smug interception.
The moment he kicked out, Deisler threw his foot and the ball rolled past Konchesky's feet.
Konchesky was shocked and turned to chase after him, but he happened to collide with Skrtel, who was filling in the position, and the two fell to the ground together.
Shevchenko had just received the ball and was thinking about how to get past Skrtel and dodge the angle of the shot, when he saw two Liverpool defenders crash into each other and go down.
He was startled, but his movements were not slow, he directly wiped the ball, dodged the two men, and then when Liverpool goalkeeper Reina was still a little confused, he fired a volley to the goal.
In the fifteenth minute of the game, Aston Villa scored through Andriy Shevchenko as they gave Liverpool a 1-0 lead away from home.
Shevchenko and Deisler high-fived the goalscorer, and more Aston Villa players gathered around to cheer and celebrate.
Aston Villa players celebrate on the pitch.
Fang Jue also raised his hands and jumped happily like a monkey off the field.
Not far away, Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson is iron-faced.
Losing a goal is something he doesn't want to see, especially the way he concedes a goal by a mistake.
Hodgson could clearly see that Shevchenko would not have had such a good unguarded shot if it hadn't been for Koncheski's scrambling knockdown of team-mate Skrtel.
This is a gift package from yourself!
Hodgson's heart is uncomfortable, Konchesky was his favorite general when he was in Fulham, he came to Liverpool to coach, and the first reinforcement was to poach Konchesky, which is his descendant, and he was pitted by the person he liked the most, Hodgson...... Already used to:
This isn't the first time Koncheski has had such a poor run this season.
"Mistake! Koncheski made a mistake as he brought down Skrtel, Shevchenko scored and Aston Villa laughed at Liverpool's mistake package. ”
"This goal, Liverpool's own mistakes are one of the reasons, however, we also have to see that Aston Villa's counterattack is wonderful, the attack is launched from the left side, Bale's breakthrough alone attracted three Liverpool players, his heel knock is the highlight, Ballack quickly split the ball, Deisler's breakthrough pass, Shevchenko's shot, the whole counterattack process is very clear, very fast!"
After taking a 1-0 lead, Aston Villa attacked even more fiercely.
First, Shevchenko played the ball back to Ronaldo, and the Brazilian veteran followed up with a direct long-range shot, and the ball was lifted off the crossbar by Reina.
Aston Villa's corner.
Deisler then headed in a corner, Shevchenko nodded it back, Ballack then flicked his header at the goal, and the ball was blocked by Reina.
Ronaldo half-volleyed and the ball smashed into the arm of Koncheski, who was standing on the goal line.
The Aston Villa players are all raising their hands to signal for Koncheski's handball.
However, the referee didn't seem to see it clearly because of the angle, so he ignored it.
Fang Jue was thunderous on the sidelines, he pointed to the direction of the penalty spot, and made a gesture of raising his arm to block the football for the referee to see.
At this time, inside the stadium, the game was still going on.
The referee 'ignored' Koncheski's handball, who kicked the ball out with a big kick, but the ball was not far away.
Outside the box, Ballack pushes the ball back.
Shevchenko was huddled in the box, he jumped up to head the ball, and as soon as he lifted the ball up, he was punched in the cheek and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Oh, God!"
"Reina made a mistake in hitting the ball, he didn't hit the football, he punched Shevchenko."
Reina was also terrified, he crouched down to check on Shevchenko, and here, without the players on the pitch shouting, the Aston Villa team doctor rushed onto the pitch.
"Are yours going to be murdered?" Fang Jue yelled at Hodgson.
Slow motion shows Ballack pushing the ball into the penalty area, Reina chooses to abandon the goal, he punches the ball in the air, but, there is an unexpected situation, Shevchenko takes a step ahead of him to push the ball up, and Reina's fist hits Shevchenko directly in the face.
"This punch is scary to look at." He Wei said nervously, "I hope Shevchenko is okay." ”
Aston Villa's team doctor was checking on Shevchenko's condition, and after a minute or so, Aston Villa 7 regained some consciousness.
The team doctor was holding up his fingers for Shevchenko to count.
The stretcher also entered the field, lifted Shevchenko onto the stretcher and pulled him to the sidelines.
"How?" Fang Jue asked with concern.
"It's okay, the consciousness is still clear, it's not a big problem, it's just that it's better to do a test to rule out the possibility of a concussion." "You can stay on the field, but it's better to take a break, the decision is yours, boss." ”
Fang Jue nodded, he patted Shevchenko on the shoulder, comforted two words for the sake of your health, and then asked Diego on the bench. Costa hurried up to warm up.
Fang Jue was actually a little angry, he cursed in his heart, Koulibaly had suffered a similar situation in the game before, and now Shevchenko has also been hit, and Aston Villa has been a little unlucky recently.
Hodgson felt even more unlucky, watching the referee point to the penalty spot and showing a straight red card to Liverpool goalkeeper Reina.
"It was an accident, the goalkeeper didn't mean it! Not on purpose! Hodgson shouted loudly from the sidelines.
On the field, Liverpool players including Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard are also interceding for Reina.
The referee ignored this completely, and he signaled the Liverpudlians not to make trouble and disperse, otherwise he would go berserk.
Hodgson's face was grim, the score was 1-0, and now that the goalkeeper had been sent off and a penalty, his confidence in the game was quickly eroding.
Liverpool's young back-up goalkeeper, Hungarian goalkeeper Pete Brown. Galaxie didn't even have time to warm up before coming off the bench.
He replaced Argentine veteran Maxi on the offensive end. Rodriguez.
'It was the 20-year-old Hungarian goalkeeper's first-team debut for Liverpool, and he had to stand in front of 12 yards on his first substitute appearance, which was a big test for the youngster.
Milner stood at the penalty spot with a football in his arms.
This is the penalty taker designated by Fang Jue.
Fang Jue's order of penalty takers for the team is Shevchenko, Diego. Costa, Deisler and Milner.
Among them, Deisler and Milner are not in fixed order, and the two can discuss.
Milner has been a very low-key and hard-working character at Aston Villa.
But if it's his turn to take a free-kick or a penalty, it's no ambiguity.
During training, Aston Villa also practiced penalty, and everyone noticed that Milner's penalty was so solid.
Milner's penalty kick is a characteristic, that is, the power and angle control are very good, the left volley, the right bottom push, basically all low into the net; Occasionally, there is a burst of shots, all of which are of high quality, enough for the goalkeeper to drink a pot.
Of course, penalty kick technique is not the key, but the mental quality is strong.
So, in general, when Shevchenko and Costa are not on the pitch, Deisler will take the initiative to give the penalty to Milner.
The referee's whistle blows.
Milner runs.
Volley into the bottom left corner of the goal.
Liverpool's young goalkeeper Galaxi, who had just come on the pitch, misjudged the direction and the football drilled into the net! ”
"Two to zero! Milner scores the penalty created by Shevchenko! Aston Villa are 2-0 up away. ”
The Aston Villa players were celebrating their goal with joy, while Liverpool were in a solemn mood, with captain Steven Gerrard clapping his hands and shouting in hopes of boosting the morale of the team.
At this moment, in the stands at Anfield, in the unfavorable situation of the team falling behind 0-2 and playing with one less man, the Liverpool fans did not boo, and no one cheered.
First, the KOP stands resounded with singing, and finally the singing swept through the stands.
More than 50,000 Liverpool fans all stood up, raising their arms, opening their mouths and chanting in unison, the song 'You'll Never Walk Alone' resounding across the pitch.
Fang Jue looked at the red stands, he turned to Ceballos and said, "This is the headache of this stadium." ”
At Anfield, no matter how bad the situation is, as long as the song is played, the Liverpool players are often like chicken blood, super difficult to handle.
In this singing voice, Aston Villa made a substitution, and Fang Jue's number one unconventional horse boy Diego. Costa came off the bench to replace the injured Shevchenko! ”
"Steven. Gerrard! Gerrard! Gerrard! Gerrard! Our captain, one to two! Only one goal behind! This is Liverpool, this is Anfield! ”
Outside the pitch at Anfield, the radio of a police car was heard with the frantic screams of a Liverpool local radio announcer.
"0-2 is nothing, in Turkey we can turn the tables 0-3 and stand on the top of Europe, at Anfield, 0-2 is just a piece of cake, 1-2! Well done, Captain! ”
Thirty-three minutes into the game, Liverpool took advantage of a free-kick and their captain Steven Gerrard blasted a shot back of the net against Friedel.
"Well done, Captain!" The young officer even honked his horn excitedly.
Five minutes later, the game was thirty-eighth minute.
"Danger! Costa! He shoots and the ball goes in! ”
'Costa got on Bale's pass, half-turned and tackled, and the ball flew off Gallaxi's left-hand side into the net and we were 3-1 down.
"This ball, Costa fouled!" The Liverpool radio commentator complained: "He fouled Carragher before Costa turned around, but the referee ignored it. ”
"Damn the referee!" In the police car, there was invective.
On the commentary bench, Lineker watched the goal replay and said, "Before Costa shot and Carraghe was in the position, Carragher was pushed away and fell to the ground, it is difficult to say whether Costa has committed a foul, he is such a player, even if it is a foul, it is difficult for you to catch direct evidence." ”
"No fouls! Carragher couldn't fight Costa, and he just collided reasonably. Radio Birmingham's ass was naturally on Aston Villa's side, and the tone was firm.
Costa was very excited after the goal, he shook his fists, shouted and beat his chest.
On the sidelines, Fang Jue also applauded happily and raised his arms.
The team has Shevchenko and Ronaldo, as well as Costa and Abonlaho, and he is extremely reassuring in attack.
Especially Costa, this kid can be said to have exploded suddenly this season.
It can't be said that Costa's performance last season was not good enough, but this season's performance is even more brilliant, as if he has been opened to the second pulse of Rendu, and he is in great shape.
Fang Jue was very satisfied with Costa's state.
However, Rao didn't expect that Costa, who came on as a temporary substitute today, was simply full of firepower and swept everything.
In the 43rd minute of the game, Liverpool's attack, Kuyt spelled a chance in front, he broke the ball successfully and passed, Torres entered the box, and faced the attacking goalkeeper Friedel, he scored with a light pick.
Liverpool 2-3 Aston Villa!
The Anfield stadium roared with cheers.
With the starting goalkeeper sent off and one man less, it was able to pull another goal back, and it was so beautiful, it really made the home fans excited.
Two to three!
The first half of the game was only one goal behind, then, in the second half of the game there is still a fight.
It was at this point that Aston Villa scored a goal and gave the home shirt a chisel blow.
It was Ballack's long-range shot from outside the box that caused the goalkeeper to save the ball and Ronaldo's follow-up shot was blocked by defender Carragher with his body.
Aston Villa get a corner.
Bale's free-kick goes into the box.
Diego. Costa slipped out of the gap and hit the ball in the back of his head.
The ball jumped up and went right past the hands of Liverpool goalkeeper Galaxi, pressed against the lower edge of the crossbar, and hung into the net! ”
"Diego. Costa! Costa! Costa! He came off the bench and scored twice in the first half! Four to two! Costa helped Aston Villa pull the score to two goals again before the end of the first half! ”
"Crazy Costa! Beautiful header loaf! He scored twice as a substitute, both of which came when Liverpool had just narrowed the scores, and I would like to praise Costa for the crucial goals. ”
There was a boil in the commentary seat.
