In the pre-match tactical lesson, the players on the field knew that Xavi Alonso's long pass accuracy was the most accurate in the Liverpool team, so they had to defend, and at this moment, they all followed Liverpool's forward players to retreat into the penalty area.

But how could defenders, who are accustomed to Liverpool's slow pace, guess the direction of Liverpool's attack in the first place?

Kuyt's sudden inward cut brought Ielo inside, and Del Horno's attention was also on Kuyt, who had seen first-hand the strength of the Dutchman in the past ten minutes or so.

However, Xavi Alonso's right foot was not a long pass with a big foot, but a short pass to full-back Finnan who leaked out of the gap on the right, and Del Horno hurriedly stepped forward to defend, but Finnan immediately crossed it.

Due to the sudden insertion of four Liverpool players in the past, there was a vacuum in the front of Valencia's penalty area, Gerrard used his explosiveness and speed advantage to grab the football before Ballack, and shot directly from a distance, deceived one of the ground and blocked, and directly shook the ball behind him with the outside of his right foot.

Xavi Alonso!

No one expected Gerrard, who had space to shoot, to pass the ball back and Xavi Alonso picked up the ball from about 26 yards from goal.

Ballack fell to the ground to block Gerrard's shot, so Xavi Alonso got the ball unmarked!

Baraja, who was closest to Xavi Alonso, hurriedly stepped forward to defend, but there was also a distance of about two meters, and at this moment, Xavi Alonso suddenly picked up his right foot and shot!?

No!

When Baraja made a natural block, Xavi Alonso picked the ball directly into the box.

Moretti, who was standing last in the defensive position, subconsciously raised his right arm high, because Kuyt, who was standing there, was already in an offside position.

However, Kuyt didn't seem to have the idea of taking the ball, but turned to look at the assistant referee, did nothing, and signaled that he was not moving.

According to the offside rule introduced the year before last, as long as the offside player does not participate in the attack, it is not offside.

Kuyt didn't get the ball, so ...... Who did Xavi Alonso pass to?

Could it be ......?

Moretti hurriedly turned around and wanted to clear the ball, but suddenly a red figure appeared in his field of vision, and he immediately realized that it was the opposing player's back-insertion to participate in the attack!

The moment he stretched out his foot, he immediately realized that it was in the box, and if he tripped it, it would be a 100% penalty! And he still has a yellow card on his back, if he takes another penalty + red card, he will become the team's sinner for the ages!

Even if Liverpool's attack scored the ball, the overall score was still flat, then at least there was extra time to fight, if he was sent off, then 9 to 11, and also sent a penalty, then the team was basically eliminated!

So after Moretti reacted, he quickly retracted his outstretched foot.

Finnan looked up and half-turned his head to observe the ball, then moved the ball forward for a stop.

Originally, he was going to pick up his right foot and hit the goal directly, but the moment he picked up his right foot, he found that his center of gravity was completely lost, and the person fell to the ground, and the football under his feet was gone, so he instinctively raised his right arm to signal the opponent to foul in the penalty area.

But the imaginary whistle didn't sound, and the referee gestured at him, and an angry Finnan slapped Anfield's turf in dissatisfaction.

It wasn't until a chance to die that the big screen of the stadium showed the slow motion of Finnan falling into the penalty area.

At that time, it was the decisive attack of the opponent's goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei, and then at the moment when Fennan stopped the ball, he directly fell to the ground and pounced sideways, blocking the ball in his arms, as for Fennan being knocked to the ground all because of Wang Xiaolei's inertia after pounced on the ball.

At the same time, the commentator in the studio once again gave all the praises to Wang Xiaolei, who had a wonderful performance.

Seeing that the time was about to enter the injury time of the game, Liverpool had not yet scored and began to panic.

If they end the game with this scoreline, then they will be eliminated from the competition, which is undoubtedly a very difficult fact for Liverpool to accept at home.

So the offensive went up again, and Valencia's defense was clearly feeling a lot of pressure.

"Keep it up and make it to the finals!"

Moretti fell to the ground to block Gerrard's long-range shot, and Baraja, who was on the track, drove the ball straight out of the touchline, taking advantage of the spare time, as the captain of the field, he clapped his palms and shouted at his teammates who had been on the defensive for most of the second half.

The players, who had significantly reduced their physical fitness, were immediately full of strength when they heard Baraha's roar.

Injury time is coming soon, and if you hold on to this score, you can advance to the final!

Two minutes later, the fourth official on the sidelines raised the electronic card with seven minutes of stoppage time.

Flores was so unhappy with the long stoppage time that he had to complain to the fourth official.

But the fourth official could only say that this was according to the instructions of the referee on the field, and he had no right to change it, so Flores could only pin his hopes on the players on the field.

In fact, the most nervous is Liverpool's manager Benitez, who coaches Liverpool this season, except for the Champions League, he can't win any domestic title.

This is his last fig leaf and has to fight for it!

So, Benitez waved his hand, and the 32-year-old veteran Fowler replaced right wing-back Finnan.

After injury time, both the home and away fans chose to remain silent at this moment, not because they didn't have the strength to continue cheering for the team, but because they were afraid that their voices would affect the team they supported.

If it is really affected, it will only cry to death......

"The clock has come to the third minute of stoppage time, which means that there are only four minutes left in the game, come on! Liverpool!! We still have hope of qualifying!! ”

Kenny Dalglish clenched his fists.

"Yes, just keep at it! Think of our Champions League final in the 2004-2005 UEFA Champions League, and it must be our great Liverpool who qualified for the final!! ”

The guest commentator picked up Kenny Dalglish.

The Liverpool players on the field are no longer as patient as before, but directly on the two wings of the frequent ball, even Agger, Carragher at this time has been to the Valencia penalty area, counting Crouch, Fowler and Kuyt, there are already 5 Liverpool attacking players in the Valencia penalty area.

During this time, Valencia's goal was shaky, but the accurate judgment of Ailo's header and Wang Xiaolei's excellent form kept the goal safe.

As a player, Flores was a defender, so he wanted to go up and play when the team was in crisis.

Benitez, who was not far away, kept signaling his players to press forward.

At this point, to hell with the defenses!

Horizontal and vertical are dead!

Time passed by second, and Liverpool was slow to score the ball, which indirectly caused their confidence to gradually evaporate, in the 95th minute, Wang Xiaolei attacked Xavi Alonso's corner kick firmly in his arms, and then threw the ball forward with a hand, Mascherano in order to prevent Iroh from counterattacking, near the center circle directly to the latter deliberate foul, so he also received the second yellow card of the game, two yellows turned into one red, and was sent off.

It was only then that a wave of boos erupted in the stands.

It is clear that the home team fans are very dissatisfied with the referee's decision, and in their cognition, it is obvious that the damn Chinese is faking a fall!

But in any case, the referee's decision has been given and cannot be changed.

Although Liverpool was sent off before full-time, Liverpool's tactics remained unchanged, which was to seize the last time to overtake the score and drag the game into extra time!

But with the Valencia players in the driver's seat, how difficult is it to score the ball?

In addition, Wang Xiaolei, who has a super god play in this game, how can he score a goal?

※※※

The clock quickly went to the 96th minute of the game, which meant that there was only one minute left for Liverpool.

"Maybe this is Liverpool's last chance, my God, goalkeeper Reina has also gone up, it seems that he is ready to make a last ditch!"

Taking advantage of the corner kick, even Reina rushed forward.

At this moment, not only the players on the court became nervous, but the fans in the stands also held their breath again, and even the commentators from various countries in the live studio chose to be silent at this time.

The 20 players from both sides of the game basically poured into the box.

At the same time, this is also the time to test the level of the referee on duty, because at this time, both the attacker and the defender are fighting for the position.

After Reyna rushed into the box, the referee on duty stopped the game at least three times due to the tugging of players from both sides, and by the time Xavi Alonso was ready to take a corner, the game was in the 98th minute.

It was more than seven minutes of stoppage time, and Flores had already complained to the fourth official on more than one occasion.

Just then, Xavi Alonso whipped a corner away, flat and fast, presumably between the line of the six-yard box and the penalty spot.

Albiol, Moretti, Ague and Crouch at the front point were not on top, and the ball slipped through and flew to where it should have been.

Because there were people everywhere in front of the goal, Wang Xiaolei's attack was directly blocked, so for the sake of insurance, he chose to stand conservatively on the goal line.

The front point was not reached, so both players focused their attention on the middle, and Gerrard, Carragher, and Ayala were all ready to fight for it, but a figure suddenly popped up in front of them and pushed the ball out.

Reese, who was waiting at the edge of the penalty area, saw the football flying over, and subconsciously picked up his left foot to shoot, but the effect was not ideal, and he shot directly into the stands.

The referee then blew the final whistle for the game.

"In the 99th minute of the game, the referee on duty blew the whistle for two short and one long!" Huang Jianxiang raised his arms and shouted at this moment: "The game is over, the game is over, Valencia drew 1:1 with Liverpool away, and the aggregate score is 3:2 to take the lead in this season's Champions League final!" ”
