Chapter 768: Pirlo's Free Kick
48_48474 This time of half-time was a rare opportunity for Liverpool and Milan fans to relax, the game was so thrilling, the players were tired, and the fans in the stands were not relaxed at all.
Many people have been clapping, shouting, and jumping since the game even began, their hands are numb, their voices are hoarse, and their feet are sore.
In the game, due to their high mental tension, they did not feel tired, felt sour, when the referee van der blew the whistle at the end of the game, these fans all felt the physical discomfort, they quickly sat down to rest, drink some water to moisten their throats.
However, at this time, there are also many fans who are not willing to be lonely, they think that the players have gone to the locker room to rest, and this time is when they are performing, so these good things in Milan and Liverpool fans began to provoke each other again, spraying trash talk to each other, and under their drive, the situation gradually expanded, and all the fans of Liverpool and Milan were gradually provoked to be angry, and they also began to spray each other, so there was a risk of group fighting.
Greece and the stadium security guards were already injured by the fans of the two teams before the game, and seeing that the fans had a tendency to make a big noise, they immediately entered the barrier between the fans of both sides to prevent the radical 11um of Liverpool and Milan from crossing the barrier to attack each other's fans.
The time of the break passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, fifteen minutes passed, and the players from Liverpool and Milan walked out of the dressing room.
The fans have now rehydrated, made mistakes, gone to the bathroom, and are almost relaxed, just waiting for the game to start.
Seeing the players come out, the scene was immediately a storm of applause and shouts, the fans on both sides wanted to overwhelm the opponent in momentum and momentum, but the number of fans on both sides is not much different, the fans are bound to win the Big Ear Cup, and the heart is in one place, let the fans on both sides applaud desperately, and then shout desperately, in the end it is still equal, and no one can form an absolute suppression of the opponent.
"The players came out of the dressing room, the fifteen minutes of the break passed, there were no substitutions on either side, the fifteen minutes of the break were actually very important, and many times they could even change the trend of the whole game, and here I have to mention the Istanbul miracle two years ago, when the Milanes had a three-goal lead, and even a fool knew that the Milans had won the game.
But after a fifteen-minute break, the Liverpudlians scored three goals in six minutes to erase the gap and eventually use penalties to reverse Milan.
Two years ago, Liverpool and Milan were still standing in the Champions League final, but it was not the Milanese who were ahead, but the Liverpudlians.
Now that the fifteen minutes of the break have passed, will the Milanese who have fallen behind repeat the magic of two years ago? Will Liverpool make the same mistakes that Milanese made two years ago?
β¦β¦ There were no substitutions on either side, but the manager must have explained in the dressing room how to play in the second half, and from a mental point of view, Milan's players were much better than in the first half, but Liverpool's morale was clearly stronger. β
The commentator didn't like Milan more, but he wasn't satisfied with the game and wanted it to change.
Two years ago, Liverpool scored three goals in a row after the break and lost to AC Milan, and now they certainly don't want to repeat the mistakes of the Milanese, so after the drive, the Liverpool players played carefully in the hope of grinding down the Milanese's fighting spirit and dragging the game into a half-time struggle so that they could keep the score until the final break.
Milanese are the lagging side, they know how precious time is to them, after the opening, everyone in Liverpool stepped forward bravely, trying to emulate Liverpool's tactics, and hit Liverpool by surprise at the beginning, but Benitez is also a master tactician, he figured out Milan and Liverpool very thoroughly before the game, and thought of the time that should be thought of, the opening and closing fifteen minutes are what he values the most, after the opening, they shrink the formation, Strengthen the marking and tracking of key Milan players, and do not give Milanes the opportunity to penetrate into their own penalty area.
It can be said that Liverpool did a good job after the start of the second half, did not give the Milan a chance to take advantage of, Milan several consecutive two-on-one and two-by-two cooperation were blocked by Liverpool's defenders, only in the fifth minute to give the Milan player a set-piece opportunity that was not very good.
Pirlo stood in front of the ball, on his left hand side was Kaka, Pirlo waved at Kaka, Kaka came over and said, "Kaka, you shoot or I shoot."
Kaka glanced at the distance and said, "It's not in my range, you can come." β
Pirlo nodded and stood near the penalty spot.
Seeing Pirlo take the free-kick, Ancelotti stood on the sidelines with mixed feelings, he understood that there may be no one who wants to sneak up on Liverpool, this team that has always liked to sneak up on others will not give himself a chance to sneak up on them, and now the only thing he can hope for is this free kick opportunity.
The free-kick was won by Kaka in a hopeless penetration with a personal breakthrough, the position was not very good, the distance was not close, the Liverpool player fouled decisively, Kaka just burst into the 30-meter area, Gerrard reached out from behind to pull Kaka, referee Van Deer gave Gerrard a yellow card and awarded a direct free kick.
Twenty-seven or eight meters, if it weren't for a free kick master like Pirlo, Ancelotti would not have had much hope, but now coach Ancelotti still hopes that Pirlo can create a miracle.
Pirlo stood in front of the ball, most of Milan's other players ran to the penalty area to grab points, such a distance, Pirlo's pass is more likely than his direct shot, even if Pirlo shoots, the running position of the player who grabs the point is also to disturb the judgment of the opponent's goalkeeper.
Pirlo saw his team-mate in position, and he took a few steps back, measuring the distance and waiting for referee Vandel's whistle.
For this free kick, Liverpool from the coach to the fans, to the players, did not care too much, such a position, direct shooting is not much threat to the goalkeeper, with the words, Liverpool's players Liverpool's players are taller, better at headers, Tamim does not believe that Milan can take much advantage.
ββ¦β¦ The free kick is 278 meters away, there is a certain threat, but I am afraid that it is not much of a threat to the Liverpudlians who are good at aerial work, although this free kick has not yet been kicked, but it can be concluded that Milan's tactics at the beginning of the second half did not work......"
As the referee's whistle blew, Pirlo strode to where the ball was standing, picked up his thighs, and pumped the ball vigorously, and at the moment when his foot touched the ball, Pirlo rubbed the ball hard with the inside of his foot.
Like a spinning top whipped by a leather whip, the ball spun violently and rose from the ground, drawing an arc towards the goal.
Pirlo's free-kick skills are among the best in world football, and Liverpool goalkeeper Reina also made a detailed study before the game, so in the first half, the Milanese had several free kick opportunities, Pirlo was not able to break through Reina's ten fingers.
Seeing Pirlo kick out a very beautiful arc of the ball with the inside of his foot, Reina was relieved, don't look at the ball flying so flickering in the air, it looks like it is going to fly to the upper right corner of the goal, in fact, after crossing the human wall, the ball will quickly fall and fall to the lower right corner of the goal, Pirlo saved one of these in the first half.
Unsurprisingly, the ball flew over the wall and towards the top right corner of the goal, where Reina took a decisive step backwards and pounced on the right side of the goal.
When Reyna jumped, the ball flew over the wall and began to descend violently, slamming into the small penalty area.
Reina secretly screamed badly, knowing that he had been fooled, Pirlo actually hit a free kick, but at this moment their bodies had already saved, and it was impossible to change again, so they could only watch the ball bounce off the ground and cross the br>Andrea Pirlo's free-kick equalised for Milan just five minutes into the second half.
Such a free kick is just a moment's work, but at the moment when the ball landed, most of the fans had a premonition, and at the same time, all the Mulan people jumped up excitedly.
βaiaiaiβ
The applause thundered and reminded that all the Milanese were chanting Pirlo's name, and at this moment, the name had a magical power and directly brought hope to Milan.
Ancelotti couldn't help but close his eyes and swung his fist hard, and at this moment, the depression and anxiety of the half were swept away, and Ancelotti had a premonition that the scene in Istanbul seemed to be repeated.
Just as the Milanese had a premonition of a goal, the Liverpudlians also had a premonition of a goal, and then they saw the goal conceded, and all the Liverpool fans covered their faces in pain and sat down in their seats.
After a season of hard work, they finally reached the final, in which they worked hard for half a game to take a one-goal lead, and they didn't expect to be equalized by a light blow from Pirlo in the second half, how could this get the Liverpool players off.
He Hui, the Chinese commentator at the scene, said: "Beautiful! The beautiful Andrea Pirlo performed his trick of 100 steps to finally break through Reina's 10-finger barrier, and now the two sides are back on the same page, let's see who can restrain the opponent and continue to score."
Benitez also saw Pirlo's goal at this time, he looked up to the sky and sighed, a master like Pirlo, you can never let her play the whole game, it is already very good now, and Pirlo thinks that Liverpool needs to change
