Steven Gerrard's shot at the post clearly took a toll on Liverpool's morale. AC Milan, who escaped and had just recovered a goal, were in high spirits.

As the game entered the final minutes, AC Milan launched several waves of threatening attacks!

They first played a wonderful combination on the right side, Ambrosini cut off Gerrard's side ball to Chen Xi and then dribbled forward, and when Chen Xi chased back, he stuffed the ball to Seedorf in front!

Seedorf leaned on Reese behind him, did not stop the ball, and passed the ball horizontally to Pirlo in the middle!

Gerrard was next to Pirlo, but Pirlo didn't give Gerrard a chance to break the ball and stuffed it back to the right. It turns out that Seedorf is already plugged in on the side again!

Seedorf did not continue to dribble the ball after catching up with the ball, but directly knocked the ball sideways again.

This time it was Kaka who showed up on the ball, and Kaka received the ball and went in the direction of the penalty area to shoot from distance.

Xavi Alonso was the first to make up for it and was ready to block the Brazilian's shot. However, he didn't expect Kaka's powerful long-range shot to kick it off, only to see Kaka cleverly retract his right foot and slam the ball behind him with his backheel.

Pirlo, who has long hair, meets Kaka's pass and shoots directly from distance!

Despite being on the move, Pirlo's long-range shot still had the effect of a defoliating ball, and after the ball went over the heads of the crowd in the box, it had a noticeable drop in front of the goal!

Dudek looked nervous and moved two steps to his right side, then rose up and flew towards the ball!

Although the Polish goalkeeper spread his body with all his might in the air, he still couldn't touch the ball.

Just as the Milan fans in the stands left their seats to cheer, the ball in the air suddenly made a slight turn, and then flew out of the bottom line with a thud on the outer edge of the post!

Oh~~~ There was an unbelievable sigh from the stands from the AC Milan fans.

"Just a little bit! Pirlo's long-range shot from a leaf shot had a little arc, and it was because of this arc that the ball ended up deflecting wide of the goal. It's a pity, this goal is definitely a world wave! ”

Calm Gopielo couldn't calm down this time, and he had a look of chagrin on his face. He thought to himself, if it had been a set-piece, it would have gone in. It's a pity that the ball is moving, which makes his footwork slightly deviate, and it is this deviation that makes him pass by the goal!

Dudek, who got up from the turf, was still in shock, and Benitez on the sidelines was also relieved!

It's just that there was soon another scene on the field that made the Liverpudlian people not easy, Gerrard was shaken by the Dutch when defending Seedorf, and he subconsciously stretched out his leg to put Seedorf and gave AC Milan a direct free kick opportunity of about 30 meters!

If you give Pirlo a close-up at this time, you will find a smile flashing on his perennially unfazed face. He was still looking for a set-piece opportunity. I didn't expect his wish to come true so soon!

He was the first to show up at the place of the foul, first pulling up Seedorf on the ground, and then preparing to swing the ball for a free kick.

Andrea Pirlo has been practising free-kicks in private, and he is only showing his skills in Serie A, and everyone knows that he has a free-kick kung fu, but he is not yet a well-known free-kick master. However, Liverpool tasted the Italian free-kick in the first leg. That's why everyone is very nervous when they see Gerrard foul.

In addition to Pirlo, there is also Seedorf standing in front of the ball, so that a long-range shot of about 30 meters can not only use the conventional free kick footwork, but Seedorf's heavy artillery is also very threatening!

At this point, Dudek needs to make a judgment in front of goal. Will Pirlo fight or Seedorf fight?

At this time, Chen Xi, who was standing in the human wall, was also in a very complicated mood, from the perspective of his own personal safety, he preferred Pirlo to shoot, after all, Seedorf's foot strength was quite terrifying, and it was not pleasant to be kicked by him. But for the sake of the team, he didn't want Andrea Pirlo to hit the shot. As a traverser, he celebrates the horror of Pirlo's free-kicks more than his teammates!

After the whistle blew, Pirlo started running straight away, while Seedorf, another guy standing in front of the ball, didn't even run.

After a run-up, Pirlo's right foot slammed into the bottom of the ball.

Although Chen Xi and his teammates in the human wall jumped high one by one, they still failed to block the ball.

As soon as the ball went over the wall, it began to fall towards the left side of the goal!

Pirlo was more prepared from the set-piece than he was last time from distance, but Dudek was also more prepared! Dudek had already made his judgment and had already pounced.

Dudek in the air could only stretch his right hand to catch the ball, but the strange arc of the ball in the air made it difficult for him to judge.

Just as the ball flew in front of the goal, Dudek thought he was going to block it, but the ball fell again. Dudek panicked and quickly adjusted, swinging his right arm down.

Suddenly, he felt himself touch the ball, and he was delighted. Based on his many years of experience, he knows that he has almost completely covered the entire goal when he is fully extended in the air, and that it is enough for him to fish the ball out of the range of the goal.

Sure enough, after rubbing against Dudek's fingertips, the ball changed direction and flew out of the goal once again grazing the outside edge of the post!

"Oh~~~~ It's just a little bit close! Only this time, it was Dudek who made a world-class save! ”

The AC Milan fans sighed regretfully again, while the Liverpool fans immediately gave Dudek a round of applause and cheers after being nervous!

Pirlo, who had once again missed the goal, stood on the spot, his face full of helplessness.

Dudek, on the other hand, was treated like a hero, getting up from the turf and being hugged by his teammates. He didn't forget to pat his chest in celebration.

Andrea Pirlo's two high-quality long-range shots in quick succession came close to the goal, leaving the AC Milan man feeling out of luck.

The Liverpool players, who escaped the catastrophe, were unable to pose much of a threat in the closing stages of the first half, with the score remaining 1-1 until the end of the first half.

When Chen Xi passed by the players' tunnel on his way back to the locker room, some AC Milan fans did not forget to boo him, and some radical fans even threw a firework down. Fortunately, the fireworks did not fall on Chen Xi's body. Even so, chaos erupted in the stadium.

Stadium security guards were guarding Chen Xi's side, while Liverpool fans in the stands were booing their displeasure. Chen Xi is their favorite player now, and they can't allow Chen Xi to be hurt in any way!

Chen Xi, who returned to the players' tunnel, was also relieved, the open gun was easy to dodge and the dark arrow was difficult to prevent, if he was hit by the fireworks just now, it would not be a joke!

This special way of welcoming AC Milan fans also aroused the anger in Chen Xi's heart, and if he had a chance in the second half, he would definitely not mind giving these guys a little color!

In the dressing room, Benitez was largely happy with the first half. However, he kept reminding the players that the game was not over yet, and the 1-1 score was not yet time for the players to relax. He hopes the players can continue to cause problems for AC Milan on the pitch in the second half. He didn't just want a draw!

In the other dressing room, Carlo Ancelotti also made some adjustments to the tactics of the second half. However, he did not make any substitutions. In his opinion, the team's Christmas tree formation performed well in the first half, but it lacked some luck!

After the break, when Chen Xi walked out of the tunnel again, the AC Milan fans above booed them again. However, after the warning from the security guards in the middle of the field, no one threw anything into the stadium again.

Chen Xi didn't look back in the face of this situation, shhhhh

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and it was Liverpool who served.

Huskey and Owen sent the ball back behind them after sending the ball in the centre circle.

After a simple two-foot pass, the ball found its way to the feet of Xavi Alonso. The Spaniard hoisted a long ball straight to the left!

It turned out that after serving, Chen Xi was already plugged in at high speed.

After judging the landing point, Chen Xi stuck Ambrosini behind him, and then stopped the ball to his left side with his right chest against the incoming ball, and then turned around directly, caught up with the ball, and got rid of Ambrosini's defense!

After passing Ambrosini, Chen Xi did not return to the side but went directly to the front of the penalty area.

He shook off Pirlo, who was chasing back, and without waiting for Gattuso to get closer, Chen Xi directly picked up his right foot and slammed the ball towards the goal.

Chen Xi's shot roared away like a cannonball!

Dida in front of the door was already in good spirits, and then came a sideways flutter, and his height reached 1.95 meters, and his coverage was very wide when he stretched out.

Therefore, even though Chen Xi's shot angle was more tricky, he was still held out of the bottom line by Dida with one hand.

I have to admit that this Brazilian goalkeeper is still quite terrifying when he is fully focused!

Chen Xi covered his face depressedly, he felt very good at the shot just now, he originally thought that there was this ball!

The Liverpool fans in the stands and Benitez on the sidelines also had a look of regret.

Chen Xi shook his head and ran towards the corner flag area on the right, the ball was blocked by Dida just now, and the Liverpool team got a corner kick opportunity!

A corner kick was awarded at the beginning, and Liverpool's big men also came to the AC Milan penalty area.

There were only two players left at the back of Liverpool, and even midfielder Xavi Alonso was on the edge of the box and ready to shoot from distance if he had the chance!

In the face of so many big players in the Liverpool team, the air defense alarm was instantly sounded in the AC Milan penalty area.

The AC Milan players could only use their bodies to push the Liverpool players out of the way and try to keep them out of danger. However, the Liverpudlians will not let them succeed. They made a special trip from the middle and back courts, how could they be sent away so easily?

So, before the corner kick started, the players on both sides in the penalty area were already wrestling, and some players were even about to scuffle.

Seeing this situation, the referee, who had already withdrawn from the penalty area, could only return to the penalty area, separated Riser and Kaladze, who had just been entangled, and warned the two to pay attention to their hand movements!

Both Reeser and Karazek honestly raised their hands in understanding, but as soon as the referee walked away, they hugged each other again.

The referee looked at the performance of the two and was a little helpless, but at least the actions of the two were not as exaggerated as just now. After confirming that there was no problem, the referee blew the whistle.

After a dashing run, Chen Xi drove the ball out!

However, the players of the two teams who grabbed the turf in the penalty area had a feeling of being fooled after seeing the trajectory of the ball in the air!

It turned out that Chen Xi's corner kick was not passed to the penalty area, but directly passed a half-high ball to the front of the penalty area!

On the path of the ball, there was only Xavi Alonso in the white Liverpool away shirt.

When everyone focused on the battle in the penalty area just now, Chen Xi and Alonso had already completed an "eyebrow flirtation" between the two.

With no obvious gaps in the penalty area, Chen Xi is ready to take advantage of Xavi Alonso's long-range shooting ability!

Chen Xi's pass flew directly in front of Xavi Alonso, and the height of the ball was also very moderate, which made the Spaniard feel comfortable.

At the same time, Xavi Alonso did not rest on his feet, and when there were no defenders around, he calmly picked up his right foot, turned slightly sideways and directly pumped the ball in the air with the top of his foot!

The ball twisted visibly at that moment, and then it whistled towards the far corner of the goal!

Xavi Alonso's shot was pumped tightly, so it was fast, and because it was a volley, it also had a certain height, and the ball went straight past the crowd in front of the goal and went straight to the top left corner of the goal!

Dida was visibly disrupted in front of goal, and although he made a save, it was useless in the face of Xavi Alonso's impeccable speed and angle!

Hmm~~~ The ball flew past Dida's fingertips and into the goal, and the net behind him let out a painful wail!
