Indeed, when Colwill fell to the ground in pain, Benitez had already called the Czech veteran Smitchell from the bench and asked him to warm up. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After a check-up by the team doctor determined that Colwill would not be able to continue playing, Benitez was forced to use up the first substitution!

Colwill walked off the field with the help of the team doctor, and his face was full of frustration!

On a big stage like the Champions League final, for how many professional players may rarely meet once in a lifetime?

He finally caught up, but it ended early!

What made Colwell even more depressed was that he finally got a chance to directly confront Chen Xi. He also wanted to use this opportunity to prove himself.

Who knew that this opportunity actually referred to such a short period of time!

Looking at Colwill's depressed expression, Gerrard, as the captain, also came over to comfort him: "You go down to recuperate, the game is over, let's celebrate the championship together!" ”

Steven Gerrard said this with confidence, Liverpool now have the lead and Inter Milan have no good chances. He believes that as long as the team is united, the victory will be theirs.

After listening to Gerald's words, Colwell also nodded, but the expression on his face was still very frustrated. This frustration may not dissipate until the team wins the championship!

Looking at Colwill who was helped off the field, Chen Xi also sighed.

He knows that the biggest fear of a player is injury, and it must be even more frustrating to get injured early in such an important final.

He has the impression that Colwill, a player who used to be full of spirit, seems to have become mediocre because of frequent injuries.

'Mitchell replaced Colwill, so Smitchell would be in the right midfield position and Luis Garcia would probably be in the midfield position!' Karachi analyzed.

Because Chen Xi took the initiative to kick the ball out of the sideline just now, the Liverpool team sent a throw-in and kicked the ball back to the Inter Milan team. It's just that Chen Xi had already successfully broken through from the side just now. Now, the only way to do this is to reorganize the attack.

However, the subsequent attack by Inter Milan was still extremely threatening.

Chen Xi advanced with the ball along the right side, and after attracting the bag, he passed the ball to Stankovic who was inserted in the middle!

After receiving the ball, Stankovic stuffed it to Adriano, who was retreating in the box.

Adriano faced the incoming ball and did not choose to stop the ball, but took the opportunity to do it in the penalty area!

Chen Xi, who had just finished passing the ball, appeared on the route of the ball, and after he caught up with the ball, he took the opportunity to go forward, used his speed to forcibly shake off Carragher who was blocked from the side, and then shot directly into the far corner from a small angle!

This series of cooperation can be said to be done in one go, but because Chen Xi's shooting angle is very small, it also gives Dudek a chance to judge.

He fell directly to the ground and pounced on the ball, and the ball bounced back into the middle of the penalty area!

When Vieri was about to make a stop-up shot, Hyypia forced the ball off the line with a sliding tackle.

"Oh my God! Vieri's stoppage shot was half a beat slower, otherwise Inter would have equalised!! ”

Vieri also hugged his head with a depressed face. As if regretting why he didn't just fly and shovel just now?

Mourinho on the sidelines was also very helpless, he knew that if it was Vieri at his peak, this goal would definitely be there.

After all, Vieri is over 30 years old, and both his physical fitness and reflexes have declined a little.

Compared with Inter Milan's continuous attack, Liverpool's attack is much shabby.

More often than not, they can only threaten Toldo's goal with the occasional long-range shot from the counter-attack.

Of course, this must be Benitez's pre-match arrangement, that is, after taking the lead, don't invest too much in the attack, and shoot decisively when you have the opportunity!

In the 28th minute, Steven Gerrard made a good long-range shot from a counter-attack. However, the ball was eventually blocked by Toldo. And Baros's goalmouth shot was also slightly slower by half a beat.

When the TV broadcast screen switches to the sidelines, it can be found that Benitez has already sat back in the coach's box, and from time to time he writes something in his notebook.

It's also a habit of Benitez to record based on the problems found on the field, and then he will make adjustments to the surname according to the problems of those records at half-time.

Such an approach may seem stupid, but it is also a style.

In contrast, Mourinho, who is in front of the other coach's box, is a little more personable. It's not that he doesn't notice the problems on the field, but he chooses to remember them in his head rather than write them down on paper!

The two of them are like two different students in a college classroom.

Some students are very hardworking, but their memory may be mediocre, so they can only keep taking notes.

Some students are very smart and have excellent memory, so they will choose to follow what the teacher says, understand the surname memory, and rarely record anything.

There is no such thing as a superior or inferior student, the former may not seem to be as talented as the latter, but they have a solid foundation and a solid foundation.

The latter are more flexible, and their ability to change on the spot may be stronger.

Four minutes later, Inter responded with a long-range shot!

After Chen Xi switched to the left side, he crossed to the middle of the penalty area, and was blocked out of the penalty area by Hyypia with his legs.

Adriano followed the path of the ball and retreated to the outside of the box, then came a sideways volley!

The shot was powerful and heavy, but it ended up deflecting wide of the far post!

Even so, the kick sent a burst of exclamations from the Liverpool fans in the stands!

The Inter fans let out a sigh of regret...... In the ensuing attack, Liverpool fired another long-range shot, this time from range at their left-back Reese.

The Norwegian does have an excellent long-range shot, and he's had plenty of great long-range shots in his career.

In the first few seasons of joining Liverpool, as a full-back, he scored more than six goals in several seasons, and this situation was not suppressed until Chen Xi came to Liverpool and almost took over the task of attacking on the left side.

No, this season, he often plays as a left midfielder, and the number of goals in all competitions has reached 8!

This time, however, his shot was a patronizing effort and he smashed the ball into the stands.

The Inter fans also booed the Norwegian. In their opinion, if it weren't for the Norwegian's sneak attack at the beginning, Liverpool would not have had that free-kick opportunity, and Inter Milan would not have conceded a goal!

Before you know it, the first half of the game is in the final minutes.

However, neither the players on the pitch nor the fans on the sidelines were relieved that the game was about to end.

Especially for the Liverpool team, Chen Xi, as a Liverpool player last season, scored key goals in the last five minutes of the second half many times!

The Liverpool players on the field, as Chen Xi's teammates, naturally understand his "hidden surname". Therefore, at the last moment of the first half of the game, although their physical consumption was a little large, they still gritted their teeth and strictly defended Chen Xi.

Similarly, the Inter Milan fans in the stands have seen Chen Xi score a stunner at the end of the half more than once, and they are expecting Chen Xi to help Inter Milan equalize before half-time!

It's a pity that under the strict defense of the Liverpool team, Chen Xi does not have a good chance.

In fact, the reason why Chen Xi scored more goals in the last five minutes of the second half was to take advantage of the player's habit of being too relaxed or overly nervous in these two time periods.

The Liverpool team has long been prepared, so naturally Chen Xi will not succeed.

It's just that in the 44th minute of the first half of the game, Chen Xi used the opportunity to attract a number of defenders to create a killing opportunity for his teammates!

With Alonso, Reese and Traore in the middle, he still calmly protected the ball at his feet and kept shaking.

After a series of shaking, he caught a glimpse of Vieri and cleverly picked the ball into the box with the outside instep.

Vieri followed up and fired a right-footed volley.

However, when it came to the crucial moment of his shot, Hyypia was very experienced and bumped into Vieri from behind.

The timing was so good that Vieri's center of gravity was unstable, and the ball eventually grazed the crossbar!

However, Hyypia obviously angered Vieri, who was not much better tempered, and after he fell to the ground, he did not go to the referee to take a point, but got up directly and pushed Hyypia with his hand!

Hyypia is not a good-natured person, and when he was pushed by Vieri like this, he also became angry, and immediately rushed over and pushed Vieri again.

Seeing that the two were about to scuffle, Chen Xi, who was not far from them, immediately made up for it and stopped between the two big men.

"Calm down, old folks. It's time for the intermission, so don't make a fuss! Chen Xi said this to Vieri and Hyypia at the same time.

These two people have a good relationship with Chen Xi in private, so they also sold him face.

Of course, Chen Xi's words played more of a role in extinguishing the fire.

After all, neither man wants to be sent off on such an important pitch as the Champions League final. Chen Xi's words can be said to have woken them up. Let them calm down.

Seeing that there was no further physical conflict between the two, the referee Gonzalez only came over to warn the two verbally, and did not take out the cards.

Not long after such a tidbit, the first half of the game was over.

Inter Milan could only get into the dressing room with a score of 0-1 at half-time.
