The referee's whistle sounded, and Iroh didn't run immediately, but looked up at the direction of the goal.

No one noticed that Valdés felt extremely nervous at this moment, his feet trembled unnaturally, and his forehead and back were in a cold sweat.

Iroh's run was different from the past, because the distance was farther than his effective range, in order to give himself a better feel for the power, his three steps were all on tiptoe, and the last step was the same as before, the step was extraordinarily large, his left leg was fiercely pierced about 30 centimeters behind the left side of the football, and then the instep of his right foot slammed into the middle and lower part of the football like a whip.

Boom~~~

The crisp sound was loud in the relative silence of Stamford Bridge.

"- Ai Ai Ai !!"

Iro, who completed the set-piece shot, did not quickly close his foot after the kick, but continued to stand on tiptoe with his left foot to drive the entire waist hub, and then gathered the strength of his body to the arch of his right foot, adding a little more power to the shot.

The ball quickly broke away from gravity and flew into the air, and the three-man wall Messi, Xavi and Iniesta were more like decorations.

Looking at the football in mid-air without a trace of spinning, the players on both sides who were surging forward frantically slowed down at this moment, and in their judgment, it was completely certain that Elo's set-piece was a shot rather than a pass, and the height of the football was not something they could withstand.

But that doesn't stop them from looking up and watching the football move.

Messi, who became a human wall, quickly turned around and looked at the football in mid-air, from his vision, the football was flying straight to the goal, like a precise cruise missile, and suddenly, he seemed to hear his heart 'pop', and instinctively thought: "Should it be ......?" ”

Goalkeeper Valdés was so nervous that his first instinct was that it would be high over the crossbar when he watched the ball in mid-air, but due to his own anticipation of dangerous balls, it was impossible for Elo's set-piece to be too high over the crossbar.

Really!

When the soccer ball flies parallel to the penalty spot in mid-air, there is a very obvious falling trajectory, just like the elevator ball that is usually called, which is also completely in line with the characteristics of Iello's free kick!

When Valdés wanted to make a save, he was surprised to find that his feet couldn't move even a single step, as if he was plunging into the dirt, he just instinctively stretched out his left arm to pounce, but in fact the ball was still nearly two arms away from his arm.

The ball flew into the goal almost grazing the junction of the goal post and the crossbar on the right.

Half a second later, there was a huge cheer over Stamford Bridge, and the fans in the stands turned into a sea of joy, chanting wave after wave.

The cheers made the fans from Barcelona feel very uncomfortable, and they didn't know if it was because of physical or psychological reasons, and they had difficulty breathing until they leaned back in their chairs.

"The ball went in!!!! Entered, entered!! Huang Jianxiang plunged into the snow-white net with the football, stood up from the seat and raised his arms and shouted.

BBC commentator Lineker then chanted: "It's the superstar who plays the most obvious role when it matters most, and in the 19th minute of the game, Ai used a set-piece opportunity to help Chelsea equalise the scoreline, as long as they maintain that score until the end of the game, then it will be Chelsea who will advance to the final!!" ”

"Incredible direct free-kick goal, Cristiano Ronaldo had a direct free-kick over 40 meters at this time yesterday, and a day later at Stamford Bridge Ai also hit a direct free-kick of about 35 meters, and from the power and angle of the shot, Ai's free kick was even more exciting! The angles are also more tricky! Because Valdés didn't react in the shredd!! ”

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray raised his arms and shouted.

Interestingly, Cristiano Ronaldo, who watched the Sky TV game, pouted, obviously very dissatisfied with Andy Gray's commentary, what does it mean that power and angle are more exciting? Your uncle and I were further away from the set-piece last night, so it was naturally more exciting! All right?

How can a corrected set-piece be more exciting?

Rooney, who was sitting on the side, looked more normal, but looked at Cristiano Ronaldo, who had a stinky face, with great interest, and smiled secretly.

Jose Mourinho hugged Villas-Boas and Faria and the rest of the coaching staff, while the players on the bench stood up to cheer for Elloh's goal.

After the goal, Iello did not celebrate, but stood on the spot and picked up his right leg pants, exposing the strong right thigh muscle, which immediately caused the female fans in the stands to scream, and the decibels of the sound were almost overwhelming the male fans in the stadium.

Of course, the female fans in front of the TV are already full of spring water, and they can't wait to be insulted by Eloline on the screen immediately.

"Ai thighs are awesome!" After Huang Jianxiang excitedly commented on the first moment of the goal, he teased: "It is worthy of the thigh!" ”

The celebration didn't last long, and after half a minute, he returned to his own half of the court to wait for kick-off.

In the next few minutes, the live studio commentators were still discussing Elo's brilliant free-kick, while the home fans in the stands cheered on their team, who were so used to winning at home that a draw would not be satisfied.

They are convinced that Iroh will be able to help the team win the game at home!

Frank Lampard, who was in control of the Chelsea midfield, also had his own idea, which was to take advantage of the momentum of the team's equaliser to overtake the score in one fell swoop!

They all play very confidently, whether it is facing Barcelona's high pressing at the back or being caught in the front, they are quite calm, and when defending it feels as if they are limited by some kind of constraints, they dare not foul when they should be fouled......

Although the referee's decision seems to be biased in Barcelona's favour, who can guess which time the referee will blow for a foul?

What if Iello took advantage of set-pieces again to take the lead?

No one dares to take risks!

It can be said that most of Barcelona's players are stuck in their own predicament, only the tenacious Messi seems to be more normal, but his positivity is more like a headless fly, because he seems to be out of tune with most of the players, even Andres Iniesta, who often trains together.

Sometimes there will be sticky balls, even if you bring the ball into a dead end, you still stubbornly continue to carry the ball, and the final result is only the ball is broken.

However, it is good that Barcelona did not concede a goal in such a passive situation.

With his arms around his chest, Pep Guardiola was very unhappy with the situation on the pitch, and he even had the idea of wanting to make a substitution, Cameroonian Samuel Eto'o showed obvious signs of a decline in form after winning the Champions League in the 2005-2006 season, and the team struggled at Stamford Bridge, but Eto'o gave the impression that he was not part of the team.

When Messi was desperately breaking through for the team's attack, he didn't even bother to step forward as a cover.

Thierry Henry, despite his poor form, knows how to use his fitness to press the ball-handling Chelsea players, which is also a contribution in the eyes of Guardiola!

It wasn't until the 38th minute that Pep Guardiola unexpectedly made the first substitution, replacing the inactive Samuel Eto'o with Sergio Busquets.

"Wouldn't it? Barcelona made the first substitution of the game before the end of the first half? Oh, my God...... Incredible! Let's see who is replaced? Eto'o?? The neutral commentators were surprised.

Even the Catalan commentator was surprised: "Oh? Guardiola chose to make substitutions during this time period, will it be a bit inappropriate? Samuel Eto'o is a veteran of the team, so will it cause chaos in the dressing room if he is replaced at this time? ”

In the 38th minute of the game, Barcelona took the lead in making personnel changes, replacing No. 9 Eto'o with No. 28 Busquets, but ...... No.28 Sergio Busquets is a defensive midfielder, and Eto'o is a veritable attacking centre-forward, replacing a striker with a midfielder when Barcelona is at a disadvantage. ”

As the referee pointed to the sidelines, the camera also switched to the sidelines, where the fourth official was holding up the electronic card for substitutions, and many commentators gave their own opinions.

Barcelona fans who watched the live TV broadcast were even more puzzled, replacing Eto'o with Sergio Busquets? Is this really good?

Then there was a scene that worried Barcelona fans, Eto'o found out that he was replaced, and walked straight off the field with a straight face, without hugging and encouraging Busquets at all, let alone clapping his hands with manager Pep Guardiola.

Eto'o directly ignored the youngster Sergio Busquets, and did not signal to manager Pep Guardiola, and then think of Eto'o, who was inactive for nearly 40 minutes in the first half, could it be that there was a problem in Barcelona's dressing room? Otherwise, Eto'o would not have been replaced so early! ”

Huang Jianxiang gave his own guess about Barcelona's substitution adjustments.

But then again, Busquets' introduction and Yaya Toure formed a two-man midfield combination, completely freeing Xavi and Iniesta, and Busquets is very good at reading the game, always bringing football to the safest place, bringing defensive hardness and possession to the team.

The core of Tiki-Taka's tactics is to possess the ball, and Barcelona with football at its feet is the real Barcelona!

The slow increase in ball control also made Messi's power begin to increase greatly, whether it is a personal breakthrough shot or a breakthrough ball, it is extremely powerful!
