Chapter 170: Hanging Door

Shepchenko could never have imagined that he would be hot-headed and cut off the ball in front of the court to cause such a dangerous situation.

Chelsea's attack just now was very high, and even central defender John Terry stepped in to assist, but he was left behind by Morris.

Manchester City launched a quick counter-attack!

Morris kicked the ball to Ivan Crewe and ran forward quickly, Ivan Crewe stopped the ball and then passed it back hard, after which Morris went straight over the halfway line to get the ball.

Suddenly, the scene became very tense.

There are only three players at the back who can limit the Chelsea defence – Carvalho, Ballack and Bridges on the wing.

Carvalho is a Chelsea centre-back, partnered with John Terry, who stepped in to assist, and he kept pulling back and not coming forward; Ballack ran back a few steps after a wave of attacks, seeing that the formation was too far forward, and the German captain's awareness was still very good; Bridge, on the other hand, was on the flank, keeping an eye out for Downing as the defense rushed up.

On Manchester City's side, Morris is rushing forward with the ball, and it is Anelka who is standing higher than him, Anelka has run to Carvalho's side, the two are standing flush, and there is Downing who follows up on the side, but Downing is defended by Bridge, and it is not easy to find opportunities in the middle.

Chelsea defended three, and Manchester City attacked with three, forming a 3-on-3 situation up front.

At this point, almost all cameras point to Morris with the ball.

"Maurice! He's rushing forward! ”

"Good opportunity for Manchester City! Maurice: He's still moving forward! He's very fast, Barack went up."

Amid the shouts of the commentators, everyone in the audience stared at the clash between Morris and Ballack.

Ballack was ready to stop Morris, the German captain was experienced defensively, he first watched Morris's run, and then when he saw Morris once again forward the ball, he picked up his right foot.

He's going to get the ball out of the way!

But at this moment, Morris's right leg kicked the ground, and his body rushed forward a little. That was enough for him to poke the ball out before Ballack.

Morris kicked the ball with his toes before Ballack, Ballack swung his right foot and hit Morris's toes, and suddenly both of them were unstable in their center of gravity, crowded together, Morris did not fall to the ground, he knew that this was a good opportunity, so he carried Ballack hard to adjust his body balance, and then squeezed his body back, Ballack failed to kick the ball and was already unstable, and was squeezed like this again. He almost fell to the ground, but at the same time Morris steadied himself, he took two steps in a row ahead of him, and then adjusted his rhythm to chase the ball.

The stadium radio was followed by an incredible shout, "Maurice, Morris, he shook off Ballack!" ”

"Dangerous"

Everyone in the audience was a little nervous.

Wan Sheng looked at Morris's dribbling, his face was a little nervous, but also a little excited and expectant.

Morris can be said to have been cultivated by Wan Sheng, and in his previous life, Morris could only mix in the lower leagues until he retired, but now he has become the main core of Manchester City. also entered the England team, these are the changes brought about by Wan Sheng.

In the previous two seasons, whether it was Derby County or Manchester City, Morris was the core of the team. But his performance is more about organizing the attack than playing his personal strength.

Now it's different.

Morris's reverence for Wan Sheng increased again, and after he was granted the privilege of being a president-level member in the players' union, his personal abilities increased in all aspects. In addition, after Wan Sheng used 'potential development' on Morris, he spent more than three weeks preparing for the fight. It has also improved the technical breakthrough in two-point dribbling, and now Morris already has the strength of a superstar, but the strength may not be able to be brought into play, and Morris's habitual style of play is also biased towards the team.

Wansheng is looking forward to Morris to play his strength and see what it looks like.

Now is your chance!

"Maurice! He shook off Barak! He's still moving forward quickly! ”

When Morris chased the ball, he was quick to start again.

At this time, it was a difficult test for Carvalho, the situation of 3v3 at halftime, as a defensive side, was originally very passive, but Carvalho never expected that the experienced Ballack would be directly passed by Morris, and at this moment, he will have to face the choice of whether to continue to defend Anelka or fill in to defend Morris.

Wing Bridge certainly can't count on it, and he can only make his own choice.

Morris was still leading forward, his pace slowing down, but he was already on the edge of the penalty area, and if he let him rush past like this, he could face goalkeeper Petr Cech.

That's when Carvalho's wealth of defensive experience came into play.

He didn't panic, and started to run backwards, which made more space for Anelka, because he would not be offside any further, but at this time, Carvalho suddenly started to rush towards Morris, Anelka was suddenly left behind, in an offside position, at this time Morris could not pass the ball at the first time, and after Anelka retreated a few steps, Carvalho happened to stop between Anelka and Morris, which gave Carvalho the opportunity to defend.

Carvalho rushed up from the flank, but he didn't dare to defend directly head-on because he had to take care of Anelka.

He knew he was stalling.

As long as they can delay for a moment and wait for Ballack to catch up, the two may successfully complete the defense one after the other, otherwise if Morris finds space to pass, Anelka will have a chance to face the goalkeeper, and the ball will basically be scored.

At this time, Morris, who was dribbling the ball quickly, suddenly lowered his body and moved his center of gravity forward, making a forward rush action, which seemed to be about to accelerate and run.

Carvalho panicked and hurried to stop him.

If Morris had rushed straight through, his previous defense would have been meaningless.

The next moment, however, Morris flicked the ball to the left to deflect Carvalho's interception, by which point he had moved the space to pass to Anelka, while he glanced in front of goal and swung his left leg.

"Morris is going to pass the ball"

"Danger!"

'Anelka receives the ball and faces goalkeeper Cech!'

That's what a lot of people think, including the media, the fans, the coaches of both sides, including Carvalho in defence, including Anelka, of course. There was also goalkeeper Petr Cech, who had already struck a few metres and immediately moved two steps in the direction of Anelka when he saw Morris's movements.

At the same time, Morris's left foot made contact with the ball.

Everyone thought it would be a pass, but in fact, Morris touched the ball with his toe first, and then the surface of his foot rubbed against the bottom of the ball, and the ball spun quickly into the air, but it was not in the direction of Anelka at all. It's the goal!

Everyone in the audience stared at the ball, and many people's heads didn't react for a while.

Didn't you say passing?

How does the football fly in that direction? Still so high?

When they reacted, they saw that the football had risen to the highest point, and then fell directly towards the goal!

It's a shot!

It is only then that many people realize the danger!

Petr Cech had already come out to defend and the others were too late to stop, Carvalho, Ballack and others all stopped their movements, and almost all of them watched the football crash into the goal.

When the football crashed across the goal line, the Stamford Bridge stadium, which filled 50,000 people, fell silent!

One second

Two seconds

I don't know how many seconds later, the whole audience became noisy. It turned to boil, and at the same time, the commentators also reacted and exclaimed, "The ball is in!" It's a hanging door! ”

"Maurice! Maurice! He shook off Barak. Buy against Carvalho's defense and calmly choose to shoot! Goalkeeper Petr Cech was deceived into guarding the wrong direction and Carvalho couldn't stop him! ”

"The ball is in! Maurice! ”

“Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!”

When the call for a goal sounded, all Manchester City supporters were in a state of flux.

In the eyes of fans. It was a beautiful goal, and from the counter-attack to the end, it was almost Morris's individual performance. He combined with Ivan Crewe to launch a counter-attack, and then single-handedly shook off German captain Michael Ballack, deceived Carvalho and goalkeeper Petr Cech, and slotted home with a brilliant outside curl lob.

This shot alone is very technical, not to mention the previous two passes!

"Maurice! Maurice! It was a goal that showed his superb individual skills! He tricked the goalkeeper into scoring the ball with two people in a row! And these two are Barak and Carvalho."

'He beat half of Chelsea's defence!'

"It's wonderful! It's so exciting! unimaginable! Maurice! He got rid of Ballack directly, and then bought Carvalho's defense without panicking at all, he deceived Carvalho and Cech in one move! No, I dare say everyone was fooled by his actions, and I thought he was going to pass the ball to Anelka because it would have been considered the best option, but he didn't! No! He opted for a direct shot! Who would have thought? This is crazy! He scored the ball! ”

"It was the first goal! 0:1! Morris scored a goal for Manchester City at Stamford Bridge, which was the first goal for Manchester City at the start of the 2006-2007 season, which was very meaningful! ”

"0:1, but we have to applaud the wonderful goal"

“”

From the beginning of the goal, the mouths of the various commentators could not stop, they kept talking about the goal from all angles, praising Morris's performance everywhere, and at the same time, the excited shouts were also sprayed with passion and blood.

As they said, the goal was so beautiful that even when the football crashed into the goal, the Stamford Bridge stadium, which had been full of hustle and bustle, suddenly became silent, neither Chelsea fans nor Manchester City fans expected to see such a surprising wonderful goal, and then they reacted, Chelsea fans were annoyed by the team for conceding the goal, but at the same time they were surprised by the goal, and Manchester City fans celebrated the goal with impunity.

Wan Sheng was looking in the direction of the Chelsea goal.

Just now he saw the whole goal process, and at the same time his heart became extremely excited, he can even be said to be the most excited one, because Morris was cultivated by him, and now seeing Morris really show the strength of the world's top superstar, he is also surrounded by a huge sense of achievement.

Wan Sheng clenched his fists tightly, the muscles on his face tensed, and he struggled to keep a peaceful smile, but in the end he couldn't hold it back, so he let go and hugged Pierce next to him.

"Haha, do you see? Stewart! Morris's goal! What a pretty! Well done! Wan Sheng kept shouting.

Pierce was also pleased.

But he still doesn't quite understand why Wan Sheng is so excited, even if it is a very meaningful goal on weekdays, he will behave very peacefully.

Was it because of City's first goal of the new season, or was it because of Morris's brilliant performance?

If it's the latter, it can only be said that Morris played well, past Ballack, deceived Carvalho and Cech, it's really exciting, but even if the scoring process is exciting, it's actually just a goal, why don't you need it? And Morris, who watched the goals on the field, was not so excited.

'Well, it must have been because of the first goal.' Pierce thought.

The first goal of the new season is really exciting, especially the away goal against Chelsea, with which the rest of the game will be much better

Pierce couldn't understand why Wan Sheng was excited, but the City fans didn't think about it at all, and they knew that Morris had scored a brilliant goal to give his side the lead.

That's exciting enough!

So less than 5,000 Manchester City fans let out a huge cheer to celebrate the team!

Their numbers are much smaller than those of Chelsea fans, but their neat shouts still have a place in the stadium for a while, even if some Chelsea fans want these outsiders to know whose home stadium it is, but they are in a low mood, and their shouts are not as good as Manchester City fans.

Morris ignited the passion of Manchester City fans with his goal!

Chelsea fans, on the other hand, have mixed feelings.

Before the game began, they had every reason to believe that the team would win at home, but now that Manchester City had scored such a brilliant goal, they didn't know what to think.

Is Chelsea too weak?

No! They have a whole bunch of stars, all of whom are unquestionable!

But did the other side pass Barak and deceive Carvalho and Cech Barak weakly? That's Captain Germany! Carvalho and Cech? That's also the team's absolute main centre-back and goalkeeper!

So it's not that Chelsea is too weak, it can only be said that the other party is really TMD too good! (To be continued.) )
