In the 36th minute, Ronaldo was "brought down" by Terry again in front of the penalty area. This time, he skillfully set the ball and pointed the valve core at himself.

The boos from the Blues fans in the stands grew louder.

It was Ronaldo's fourth free-kick in the first half, the fourth free-kick won in a position similar to "diving".

The young Portuguese seems to enjoy the sport of 'diving', and every time he uses his strong body to beat a Blues defender, he becomes vulnerable by a step above the opposition.

The Blues defenders are also helpless, if they don't use force, they can't defend the opponent, and if they use force, the opponent will "fall down at the touch".

Everyone was holding their breath, but they didn't know that they couldn't mess around.

This time, it was a banana ball that crossed the human wall again, and although Tang Wu flew out this time, everyone could see that his body was not fully stretched.

"Fack!" Tang Wu and Ronaldo scolded at the same time.

For Cristiano Ronaldo, two free-kicks are a lot of touches. Now he's played four times, but it's always a little bit off.

But Tang Wu was scolding himself for not being angry!

Of these four balls, none of them were in place!

The two of them didn't react after taking a step, one didn't stretch his body, and the other stood still and didn't move.

In other words, if Ronaldo's free kick hits the goal frame, Tang Wu can only watch the opponent score!

I expected it but couldn't stop it, this feeling is terrible!

"HEY, TOM, GIVE YOU THE BALL! Don't forget to kick it into the opponent's goal! "The caddie behind the goal is very diligent.

Every time he took a goal kick, he would shout Tang Wu's name and then send his only blessing.

But Tang Wu was annoyed because he had a problem.

When Xiao Xiaoluo took a free kick, Tang Wu did not have any reaction, but often made two opposite instructions in his brain in a row.

One is to pounce on the ball, the other is to judge from the ball path and spin that the ball has gone beyond the goal frame, and then give the body a stop.

But Xiao Xiaoluo's feet would always make an arc of the ball in the air, over the human wall, around the door post, and then spin again into the door frame.

The goalpost has saved Chelsea twice, but it can't be saved every time, right?

"Alas! I'm still a little too tender! ”

Anovan once said that the growth of a goalkeeper is the process of training people into machines.

Humans make mistakes, but machines don't.

It is for this reason that goalkeepers need to do a lot of boring training day after day, repeatedly. The aim is to eliminate some of the psychology of the goalkeeper as a human being, to make the save smoother, closer to the instinctive reaction of the muscles.

When a goalkeeper strikes and has to use his brain to think about what to do with the ball, it's just too low!

The real duel with the opponent is that when two people are in a certain place and a certain point in time, the bodies of both parties will automatically judge what to do next according to the situation.

Those with experience will be more "smart", and those with less experience will often fall into passivity!

Tang Wu is like that now.

Every free kick kicked by Xiao Xiaoluo will make Tang Wu's "reason" defeat "instinct".

Both men knew that perhaps the next free-kick would be the moment the Reds scored.

Tang Wu's face gradually became grim.

If it's not new, it just works!

The Reds have grown accustomed to threatening the Chelsea door with such 'shameless' tactics, with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy and Forlan regularly tumbling in front of the Blues box in an attempt to win a free-kick.

Such a "rogue" move by the Red Devils caused a series of boos from the Blues fans.

But so what?

In the age of utilitarian football, winning is the only pursuit!

The Blues players also saw the clues of their opponents, and naturally they could not let the opponents bully their "little teammates" like this.

England's midfielders, in particular, used every attack to launch a fierce attack on the Red Devils' goal.

In the 42nd minute, Mutu won the ball in front, leaned on Ferdinand with his body, and sent a through kick.

"Huh?! Joe Cole single-handedly! Huang Jianxiang was slightly surprised

The red-blue battle is like crossing a single-plank bridge, and every wrong step may lead to falling into the abyss.

When Joe Cole appeared in front of Howard with the ball, all the fans held their breath.

The £660W West Ham captain switched to the Blues this summer but struggled to play a regular role under the Pull-up account.

The "flashy" evaluation has always been a problem for Joe Cole.

As a midfielder, Chelsea have no spare place for Joe Cole. Even Veron has to spend a long time on the bench, so you can imagine that Joe Cole is in a difficult situation this season.

This is a righteous goal!

Joe Cole made up his mind, and the frequency of his feet suddenly increased.

He's going to shake Howard down and then push the empty goal.

Only in this way can you prove yourself!

Swing legs, fake shots, a wipe, a buckle.

Joe Cole shook Howard away with ease.

Just as he shook the goalkeeper with "superfluous movements", a leather foot appeared at his feet, and even the man tackled the ball to the ground.

Beep!

In the midst of the noise, the Blues were awarded a penalty at home!

"Hey, referee, he faked a fall, I touched the ball! It's a ball! ”

Roy Keane got up and ran towards the referee, shouting in defense.

He completely forgot that a few minutes earlier, the Blues had shouted at the referee in the same language, but it didn't have half an effect.

Joe Cole lay on the ground and did not get up in the first place. His feet didn't hurt, but it hurt his heart.

"If only that ball had been shot straight away!" When Joe Cole calmed down, he covered his face with his hands.

"Joe, how are you?" Frank Lampard was the first to walk up to Joe Cole and extend his hand to his team-mate.

"Oh! It's okay, Frank, I'm okay! Joe Cole freed up his left hand to shake Lampard and was pulled off the ground by the opponent.

"Joe, do you want to try it?" Frank Lampard politely slipped the ball into Jocole's hands, after all, the penalty was made by Joe Cole.

"Uh, Frank, I thought, um... I, I think, I can try, this, this..."Joe Cole was a little incoherent.

This is the Red Devil!

Looking at the red in the stands of the visiting team, Joe Cole made the same mistake again.

Indecisive and indecisive. Jiang Lang is talented, flashy and unrealistic.

This is what the media said about Joe Cole.

The importance of this game is clear to every Blues.

If I could play in it, would the coach be very fond of me?

Looking at the ball in front of him, Joe Cole was a little nervous.

He was about to nod, but he closed his mouth again.

But what if you can't kick in?

Howard is already gearing up, and the referee's decision can't be changed anyway.

If you can't score, what awaits you may be a longer bench career!

Duff, Veron, Claude Makelele and Frank Lampard are firmly in the starting midfield, and even if they score, they will not necessarily be more important in the hearts of the four than they are.

In that case, it's better to...

Looking at Frank Lampard in front of him, Joe Cole suddenly had a strange thought.

If Frank Lampard can't score...

Joe Cole shook his head, stopping himself from thinking any further.

He and Frank Lampard are team-mates not only for the club but also for the national team. As England's "golden generation", Joe Cole did not allow himself to have such "shady" thoughts.

"Okay Joe, I got it!" Lampard tapped Joe Cole on the shoulder and took the ball back from his hands.

Not everyone is going to have an indomitable momentum, and Joe Cole may have thought of scoring goals by using the goalkeeper when he was alone, but when it's all over, hindsight will make him hesitate.

"Frank, I—" Joe Cole retracted in the middle of his words.

Looking at his empty hands, he knew that a person who was in a dilemma between kicking or not kicking couldn't kick a penalty!

"Good! The referee had cleared the unrelated personnel out of the box and Chelsea's no.8 Frank Lampard stood in front of the ball. Huang Jianxiang explained slowly.

'Frank Lampard has featured in every Chelsea game this season except the Carabao Cup and has developed into an indispensable midfield for the Blues.

"I wonder if he can withstand the pressure?"

"You know, there are more than 40,000 fans in the stadium who have their eyes on him."

"Frank Lampard runs..."

"Shoot!"

"The ball is in! Frank Lampard withstood the pressure! Under Huang Jianxiang's uncontrollable joy, the entire Blue Bridge fell into a boil.

Frank Lampard swooped out like a glider and swooped down towards the sidelines.

Crespo, Mutu, Geremi and others followed suit as they celebrated the Blues' lead.

Joe Cole followed at the end of the line, clapping as he ran, a smile on his face a little reluctant.

He knows that under the pinch account, the bench career in the future may have to be extended.
