Chapter 606: Chelsea Picks Up a Big Bargain
"Mistake? This ......"
BBC commentator Lineker blurted out that he was immediately drawn to the football on the big screen, and with his years of professional experience, it was definitely not a mistake, but a conscious ...... Hanging doors! Thinking of the various wonderful goals in Iello's career, he is even more looking forward to the next scene......
“…… Ball, ball...... The ball went past Reina's right finger and crashed into the empty net behind him!! The ball went in!!! ”
Lineker stood up from his seat with a hoarse voice, raised his arms and shouted!
"-Iroh!" Huang Jianxiang clenched his fists and shouted excitedly: "The ball is in!" A highly concealed left-footed lob !! It's so exciting! Everyone had the impression that Iroh was fine enough to play a small guitar with his right foot, but now he told everyone that his left foot could also play a small guitar! It was a goal that showed his excellent footwork and unique way of shooting......"
"Hat-trick, hat-trick!! In the 78th minute, Ai's hat-trick helped Chelsea take the score to 3-1 on the road!! If the game were to be finished with this scoreline, the second leg of the Champions League semi-final at Stamford Bridge would be a garbage game, as Jose Mourinho has been unbeaten in all home games since Jose Mourinho took charge of Porto!! ”
'Chelsea can't afford to make a fatal mistake in the second leg! Because they have the best players and the best managers in the world at the moment!!! ”
Sky TV commentator Andy Gray ignores his identity at this moment, he is no longer a neutral commentator, but has become a fan of Ielloh! Chant to your heart's content.
Reina, who was scored a hat-trick by Iro, now feels shameless to face the home fans again, conceding three goals in one game......
One is more humiliating than the other!
The first goal conceded was a burst shot from Iroh, the second was a single shot, and the third was a lob shot......
He lay quietly on the turf in front of the goal line, his hands covering his face.
At this moment, there are also Mascherano, Ag, and Carragher who have similar expressions to Reina...... Even captain Steven Gerrard lost faith in the outcome of the game at this moment.
The team lost again against a team with Elo, a hat-trick ...... Hat-trick at Anfield.
On the contrary, the head coach Benitez was quite calm at this time, and the whole person didn't even have the previous sense of anxiety, just put his hands in his trouser pockets, and kept shaking his head as he watched the score on the big screen in the southeast of the stadium, he already knew that Liverpool left the Champions League final this season with half a foot.
Even if he doesn't want to admit it.
Mourinho, who was standing in front of the visitors' command area, clenched his fists sharply and swung them back and forth the moment he scored, and after a few seconds, he seemed to feel that he was not enough to vent the passion in his heart, and played the way he celebrated his fame - a sliding rail celebration.
A way to celebrate a goal that is meant to be celebrated by a player.
※※※
After the goal, Iello was stunned in place for a second, then was brought back to reality by a chant from the distance, and then turned around excitedly, all the way around his team-mates who were about to hug and celebrate, and ran towards the blue stands at Anfield.
Iello has only picked up one yellow card in the Champions League this season, and it was in the group stage, so he can celebrate.
When Iello ran to the stands where the Chelsea fans were, he jerked off his shirt, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it at the excited blue stands.
Then it's time to show off the domineering tattoo on his back!
In order to let the fans in the stands see more clearly, Iroh clenched his fists, his arms exerted force, and the ink unicorn tattoo on his back seemed to come to life, his hideous expression was exposed to the air as if adding a sabre-rattling domineering, and his forelimbs seemed to be about to step through the sky and travel in space, and the whole person became bigger and more powerful under the background of the tattoo......
Although the director of Anfield Stadium was very unhappy that Iroh was so arrogant in this stadium, he was helpless because of his professionalism, so he switched to a camera that could turn his back to Iroh at the first time, so that the fans in front of the TV could watch Iro's celebration up close.
In this moment, the Blues loyalist, who was unable to be there to cheer for Chelsea, sat in front of the TV and kept growling, using foul language to express the excitement in his heart.
If nothing else, Chelsea will make history by reaching next month's Champions League final at the Luzhniki Stadium!
It didn't take long for Iello to drown in the crowd of his teammates, one pressing the other, quite excited, especially captain John Terry and vice-captain Frank Lampard, no one more eager to win the Champions League, even if it was only the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals!
After enjoying the thrill of the goal, Mourinho quickly shouted at his assistant Villas-Boas to tell Sidwell and Joe Cole to warm up.
The camera explained very clearly, and after successively giving the key players of the home and away teams, it was given to the Chelsea players in the warm-up area.
※※※
The studio commentators were still unsatisfied, especially Huang Jianxiang, who was as excited as China won the right to host the 2008 Olympics: "Elo's hat-trick not only helped Chelsea to make it 3-1, but also brought his personal Champions League goal tally this season to 17, which has equalled his record of 17 goals in 12 Champions League games last season. That means he will likely continue to break his record of 21 goals in a single Champions League season set last season......"
Thinking of this, Huang Jianxiang became even more excited: "Last season's Valencia reached the final because of Elo's efficient goal, and he helped the team score four goals in a row in the final to win last season's Champions League, and this season's Chelsea is like Valencia last season...... They are just one step away from qualifying for this season's Champions League final...... If nothing else, then this season's Chelsea will win the historic Champions League under Iroh! And...... Chelsea will have a good chance of winning the unprecedented quadruple! Because they have already won the Carabao Cup, the FA Cup final is against Portsmouth, and Chelsea should have no problem at the moment, while the Premier League is three points ahead of second-placed Manchester United with only three games remaining, and it is worth mentioning that there will be a direct battle between the two teams in the next round, when the time comes......"
After talking for nearly a minute in a row, Huang Jianxiang was also a little overwhelmed, so he paused and felt a little more comfortable in his throat before continuing: "That is to say, if Chelsea do not lose to Manchester United in the league at home this weekend, then they will have a 95% chance of winning the quadruple this season!! ”
Although it was already more than four o'clock in the morning at this time, none of the fans felt sleepy, on the contrary, they were quite excited, once upon a time...... Such a bullish player who went abroad in China? In Europe's top league, the UEFA Champions League, it is very exciting to think about.
The camera returns to Anfield.
It was 80 minutes into the game, meaning Liverpool had only 10 minutes left to play, and they would have to score at least two goals in the remaining time if they were to keep their hopes of qualifying for this season's Champions League final......
Of course, it's okay to score more than two goals.
It's just that this possibility is almost zero.
Why?
Because the away coach is Jose Mourinho!
One of the most defensive-minded coaches in football today.
This, combined with a 3-1 deficit at home to Chelsea, also hit the Liverpool players hard, and the mentality at this time completely returned to the form before the end of the first half, and they lost confidence in the game.
Even if there is a chance to restart, it is difficult to create a chance.
Two minutes later, Chelsea made another change, replacing Didier Drogba with Sidwell and strengthening the central defence.
Liverpool also made personnel changes, replacing full-back Arberoa with Pennant to strengthen the attack on the wings.
It's just that the fighting spirit of the current Liverpool players has fallen to the bottom, but Chelsea's attack is playing vigorously, and it seems that they hope to take advantage of the Liverpool players' loss of confidence in the game to directly solve the two-legged Champions League semi-final game.
In Liverpool's most difficult moments, Reina, who had conceded three goals in the game, stepped up and made a series of high saves to save the shots of Iroh and Frank Lampard.
In order to avoid a net loss of three goals at home, Benitez had to make a third change to the defence, with Skrtel coming on for Ager.
This substitution signal also basically means that Benitez has given up on the game.
Mourinho also accepted it as soon as he saw it, and played the rest of the game with Liverpool very tacitly.
In the end, Chelsea won 3-1 away at Liverpool thanks to three brilliant goals from Elo, thus gaining the first chance to enter the Luzhniki Stadium.
As soon as the whistle blew at the end of the game, reporters at Anfield Stadium swarmed around Iello, and all kinds of problems arose.
However, Iroh was in a very good mood and basically satisfied the reporters who asked.
Of course, better connected Chinese journalists and local Valencian journalists are preferred.
The next day, the mainstream media in Europe was all about Elo, as he was the man of the match in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final last night, and he scored a hat-trick in such a crucial game that helped Chelsea win 3-1 at Liverpool.
In the words of Valencia Sport: "Chelsea, who spent £60 million at the start of the season, is really a bargain!" The first leg of the Champions League semi-final was a victory for Ai alone, as it was entirely his own performance that led to the three goals, otherwise it is unclear whether Chelsea would have been able to return the game at Anfield......
The headlines of the day were: Chelsea picked up a big bargain......
