Chapter 301: Legendary Goal
Hearing Zhang Tiehan say that he wanted to take a free kick, Ladd and Alonso were a little dumbfounded, they really didn't know that Zhang Tiehan would take a free kick.
"Are you sure? Sheet? Gerald asked.
Although Zhang Tiehan's shooting skills are good, he trains to shoot directly, but there is no wall in the middle, and it is impossible to kick in if someone blocks the shot.
"Can you do it?" Alonso is also a little skeptical.
"I don't know, but I'd like to try." Zhang Tiehan stood in front of the ball and looked at the direction of the goal to find the feeling, in fact, he has been practicing free kicks, but the effect is not very good, after all, the arc is really difficult to play, but such a long shot, maybe you don't need too much arc, you just need to shoot the ball hard, let the football pass above the human wall, or simply kick a boccia, probably there will be a chance.
He was already preparing for a free throw.
Liverpool's human wall is very loosely arranged, after all, the free kick position is more than 35 meters away from the goal, which is too far, unless Carlos, Mihajlovic and other world-class long-distance free kick masters come, otherwise such a goal is too difficult to score, even if it is a world-class free kick master is difficult to score, after all, there are only a few free kicks that can be scored directly.
They were all a little absent-minded.
Even if they see Zhang Tiehan standing in front of the ball, they have never heard of Zhang Tiehan kicking a free kick, this is probably just a pretense, Liverpool will definitely launch a second attack, not a direct shot.
Everybody thinks so.
Before the football, the three of them were also discussing, Alonso looked at Zhang Tiehan, "Let's help you cover?" ”
Gerald looked over too.
Zhang Tiehan shook his head, "Steven, you go grab some points, you don't need cover." ”
Gerald made an OK gesture. Running slowly, but his eyes couldn't help but say, 'Can you do it?'
……
'Zhang was standing in front of the ball, but I think he was supposed to cover Alonso...... But seriously, he should go to the front to grab points, that's what he's good at. The on-site narrator said.
Sky TV's Alfi agrees, "If it's Zhang Lai's free-kick. I think I'm going to have some expectations but that's basically impossible, he might as well go ahead, Gerrard and John Terry don't have an advantage in contention, I remember last season, when Wigan Athletic played Chelsea, Zhang beat John Terry and scored a goal, and now he should do that, so he might be able to score a second one. ”
Just maybe. Few people think this goal can be scored.
Under the puzzled eyes of many people, Zhang Tiehan put the ball firmly and stepped back, looking at it as if he was going to make a free throw, but everyone only watched, more people were looking at Alonso, and they felt that it should be Alonso who took the free throw.
The Chelsea players thought so and they didn't care.
Alonso didn't stand on the sidelines. He pretended to shoot with a small jump, but this action made it more certain that he was the one who made the free throw. In order to prevent Alonso from curling the ball, one man was added to the right side of the wall - this time it was four.
"I don't know what Liverpool are doing, at such a distance, Alonso just passes the ball, are they wasting time?" Some commentators have this suspicion.
Gerrard was already in his position, and Terry was following him closely. He couldn't get involved in a free-kick.
Cech stood in front of the goal, watching the football from afar, looking at Zhang Tiehan and Alonso in front of the ball, constantly shouting to command Fang Sou, "Pay attention to the movements of the two of them." Farther to the right. 'He knows Alonso is good at taking the ball to the right.
While directing the defence, Cech muttered quietly, "Pay more attention to Alonso, he is dangerous." ”
Zhang Tiehan didn't care too much, and he also felt that it couldn't be Zhang Tiehan's free throws.
Cech is not too worried, the ball is too far away from the goal, and there is a wall to block it, especially Zhang Tiehan, who is good at grabbing points, is in front of the ball, that is, he cannot participate in grabbing points, the opponent either shoots directly, or Gerrard and others come to grab the header, he is not worried about these.
It's too hard to score a goal like that, especially when he's serious about defending.
Petr Cech is confident of that.
He is only 23 years old, but he is already considered the most promising goalkeeper in the Czech Republic in the last 20 years, especially as he has just won the UEFA Goalkeeper of the Year award last season and the Czech Footballer of the Year, which has given Petr Cech more confidence in his abilities.
Such a ball wants to hit the goal of his handle?
It wasn't easy.
……
Zhang Tiehan stood in front of the free kick, and even Benitez was a little surprised, because he didn't know that Zhang Tiehan would take a free kick, why did he suddenly think of taking the penalty?
On a whim, want to try a free kick? But that's a wasted opportunity.
Even Benitez thinks so, and others can imagine it.
……
Under everyone's gaze, Zhang Tiehan stood in front of the ball and prepared to make a free throw.
Zhang Tiehan has not taken a free kick before, and he has not done relevant training in training, so Liverpool teammates don't know how to cooperate with him, they know that Zhang Tiehan is good at long-range shooting, but his long-range shot is a straight ball, not a ball with an arc, the two are completely different, and Zhang Tiehan's high-hanging passing ability ...... No Liverpool player has seen him pass the ball like that, because he's a striker and he usually goes to grab points rather than pass the ball.
So Gerald and the others didn't give up hope for grabbing points.
Zhang Tiehan came to make a free throw, and it was basically a shot.
If he knew what Gerrard and others thought, Zhang Tiehan would definitely sigh that he was actually 'seen through', he really didn't plan to pass the ball or anything, standing here he just wanted to shoot directly.
He did not take a free-kick at Liverpool, but it was within walking distance of his training shots, and although he was blocked by a wall, he himself was unguarded.
He didn't have much pressure.
The only thing to consider is how to fool the wall.
The referee blew his whistle and the crisp sound echoed through Anfield, the scene was a little quieter, and all eyes were on the football.
Before football, Zhang Tiehan began to sprint and run.
One step, two steps, three steps, Zhang Tiehan slowly took steps, only three steps to the ball, the last step his left foot firmly stepped on the left side of the football, the right foot picked up hard, and the instep of the foot hit the football fiercely.
"Bang!!"
The ball took to the air and sprinted towards the Chelsea goal.
……
When Zhang Tiehan helped to run, the eyes of the Chelsea players were more focused on Alonso, they thought that it would be Alonso who shot the goal, but when they saw Zhang Tiehan's movements, they felt that something was wrong, and when he picked up his right foot, the Chelsea players knew that Zhang Tiehan was going to take the penalty.
They got nervous!
"Hold on! Block the ball with your body! Captain Terry shouted, and jumped up hard, and the others followed with their eyes closed, but their reactions were a little slower, and-
This ball is also scared to death!
In Carvalho's eyes next to him, it was only a matter of a moment, the football flew in front of his eyes, rushed over the head of the Chelsea wall, and then the Chelsea teammates jumped, of course, it was useless for them to jump at this time, the football had already flown over, and they did useless work.
Carvalho subconsciously looked back.
The soccer ball rushed to the goal!
Cech stood steadily in front of the door, he looked quite composed, but he was inexplicably surprised...... He didn't expect it to be Zhang Tiehan to take the penalty, this ball was too fast, only a moment of football in front of him, Cechrburn hoped that the human wall could block it, but the human wall was useless except to block his initial vision.
By the time he was ready to make a save, the ball had already flown into the goal from his side. When the ball hits the net, the commentators don't even react.
You can see how fast football is!
This is a ball shot by Zhang Tiehan with all his strength! It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a thunderous blow!
When the ball was shot, Zhang Tiehan didn't have time to see the result at all, he was driven by his own strength to turn in place for more than half a circle, and almost fell to the ground, staggered and fell to the left several steps before stabilizing his body.
In just two seconds, the football had already passed from Zhang Tiehan's feet and into the door of the Petr Cech's handle.
It's not easy for Cech to make a save.
This proves his ability as a world-class goalkeeper, and the on-site commentators and fans will not say that it is Cech's problem, but can only say that the ball is too good, which can be regarded as the fans' recognition of Cech's appearance...... Apparently not enjoying the recognition, Cech lay on the ground and looked back at the still rolling football, his face dazed and helpless.
The door of his handle was broken again...... Second!
……
Finally, after more than a second of silence at Anfield Stadium and all the televisions, it suddenly erupted like a volcanic eruption.
"Unbelievable!"
"Incredible!"
"God!"
"Zhang's free-kick?"
"It's unbelievable! Liverpool were two goals ahead of Chelsea at home, and just now, Zhang scored the second goal and he scored twice...... But it doesn't matter, what matters is that Zhang scored a free kick, a direct free kick from 35 meters away, who can tell me, it wasn't Robert Carlos who shot just now......"
"It's the same as Carlos' powerful long-range shot...... No, more power than Carlos' shot! ”
In today's football, there are not many players who can shoot the ball from 35 meters away, if you count it, Real Madrid defender Robert Carlos is definitely one of the best, his long-distance free kicks can be remembered by many people, and Zhang Tiehan's kick is more powerful and faster than Carlos.
The narrators didn't know how to describe it for a while, and some of them didn't even believe what they saw.
Zhang Tiehan can score a free kick, which is a small miracle, and his free kick is perfect to the extreme...... It's a miracle!
The two miracles combined, just like Sky TV commentator Alfi said-
"It was a legendary ...... goal" (to be continued......
