Chapter 524: The Real Lore!
Liverpool were cheering for the goal, which equalised the score, and everyone, the players, the coaches, the fans were excited.
At this moment, many Liverpudders thought of the Champions League in 05, when they were tied 3:3, although this is only the league, but the game is not easy to play like this, they are very excited, thinking of that game, they think that the victory must belong to Liverpool.
The same goes for the Liverpool players, who know it won't be easy to equalise and the way the game is playing out the way it is, and they all believe the team will come back and win.
When the game restarted, they all started fighting for it.
So in the next game, Liverpool's attack was more violent, but at the same time the whole Chelsea team was also working hard, they were not willing to be equalized by Liverpool, at this time, Zhang Tiehan became the most active person in the field, when Chelsea attacked, he kept running in the front, creating various threats to the Liverpool defense, and the game reached the final stage, many players were physically unable to keep up, but it was difficult to see this in Zhang Tiehan, although he was already soaked in sweat, but still active on the field, I didn't see any sense of physical decline at all, but he was relatively more active.
He kept running!
He is constantly cooperating with his teammates!
He's always on the lookout for opportunities!
Zhang Tiehan could be seen everywhere throughout the stadium, which made the Liverpool players feel that the game was difficult because they had to face Zhang Tiehan's threat at any time.
Zhang Tiehan is looking for opportunities with almost all his ability, he is not willing to end the game like this, he is not willing to get a draw at Anfield, so he has been working hard and doing his best.
Soon the situation of the game was changed by Zhang Tiehan - Liverpool and Chelsea were attacking and defending each other, but now it is Chelsea attacking all the time. Liverpool defended passively.
Liverpool are suppressed!
Anyone who sees the current situation on the field will think that Chelsea is superior in strength, but in fact, only those who watched the game just now know that this is completely caused by one player on the field, that is, Chelsea's No. 9 - Zhang Tiehan.
Zhang Tiehan is too active. Liverpool had to keep an eye on his defence, and as a result, the attack was a little unable to keep up, so they were suppressed in the situation.
The situation on the pitch of both teams did not reflect the mentality of both sides.
In fact, in the final period, both sides wanted to break into a goal to decide the outcome of the game, neither side wanted to end in a draw, but now the mentality of the Liverpool players has changed, they think that scoring a goal is good, but in this case, not being scored is good news, and it is difficult to seek goals again. As a result, they slowly began to think that keeping the goal was a victory.
I have to say that this kind of mentality is unacceptable.
It's like in distant China, the Football Association always talks about 'this draw is a victory', in fact, it is, maybe they are telling the truth, but it is very dangerous to play with this mentality, and if you don't have a draw, you will face a defeat.
Liverpool probably haven't gotten to that point yet. At least their defence is solid, and time is running out.
Little by little, the game passed.
There wasn't much time left after Liverpool's goal. Soon the fourth official had already raised the stoppage time card, which read '3', meaning three minutes of stoppage time.
A minute passed.
Two minutes passed.
There was only enough time to complete one attack, and it was still Liverpool who attacked, but perhaps Gerrard was a little out of fitness, and his dribbling in the middle of the midfield was cut off. As a result, the ball for this last attack was in the hands of Chelsea.
By the time Arjen Robben was dribbling on the flank, the referee was already looking down at his watch.
Arjen Robben also noticed that he was trying to break through to the bottom line to complete a pass, but Liverpool retreated to defend very quickly, and he couldn't get rid of it in the first place. This also means that he will kill some time, but now time is very precious, and he can't afford to spend it, so he chose to pass the ball to Zhang Tiehan next to him.
Zhang Tiehan got the ball.
Now it is too dangerous for Zhang Tiehan to get the ball at this time, almost immediately two Liverpool players rushed over to wrap up, because this was a sudden ball counterattack, other Chelsea teammates have not yet followed, Zhang Tiehan wants to pass the ball can only pass back, but the referee is likely to blow the whistle at the end of the game.
He can't bet.
And the return pass is useless except for controlling the ball, at this moment, Zhang Tiehan glanced at the direction of the Liverpool goal, Reina was standing there calmly, and there were two Liverpool players in front of him, the pass was not good, he could only carry the ball himself, but if he wanted to break through the two Liverpool players, let alone whether he could do it, even if he could do it, it would take some time.
These thoughts passed through Zhang Tiehan's mind, and there was only one choice left, which was to shoot directly!
Zhang Tiehan had a choice
Everyone in the audience looked at the ball.
The managers of both teams were already standing on the sidelines. Benitez looked at Zhang Tiehan who got the ball, and his heart was a little uplifted, but seeing that the team's defense was very solid, and Zhang Tiehan's position was too far away from the goal, he also put his mind at ease, thinking that the game would end like this.
3:3。
Not winning, not perfect, but acceptable for Liverpool.
It was a tough draw and the results were acceptable, the fans were acceptable, and the team showed a lot in this game, and that was enough.
He thought about these things and turned his head to pay attention to the referee.
Villas-Boas is also standing on the sidelines, Benitez can accept a draw, Villas-Boas can actually accept it, for him, this game is a test, the victory is of course the best, but the game is like this, Chelsea played quite well, Zhang Tiehan scored two goals personally, Drogba also scored a goal, Chelsea's forward duo played a powerful role, just took over the team, he was able to lead the team to a draw at Anfield Stadium, without letting the team slide, plus the first few wins, There will be much less pressure from the media.
He thought so. Also look at the referee.
At this moment, the referee almost half of the people's eyes, and the other half of the people focused on Zhang Tiehan, because Zhang Tiehan was in possession of the ball, but even the fans who had great confidence in Zhang Tiehan did not expect that they would see such a scene next - at a distance of forty meters from the goal. Zhang Tiehan kicked the ball to the left, and immediately caught up and shot directly!
Liverpool fans didn't think of it, Chelsea fans didn't think of it, Chelsea teammates didn't think of it, the managers of both teams didn't think of it, the Liverpool players didn't think of it, and neither did Pennant and Carragher, who defended Zhang Tiehan.
So when Zhang Tiehan shot the goal, both of them were a little stunned.
But if they don't, they can't stop it at all, because Zhang Tiehan's action is too sudden. It is about forty meters away from the goal, at an angle of 60 degrees to the goal, this position is about the same as the center line and the big penalty area, it is too far, they can't imagine that someone will start here, especially Zhang Tiehan has to face the defense of the two.
Just shoot like that?
Or is the opponent just going to make a symbolic shot to announce the end of the game?
They believe in the latter more.
At the same time, many people think so, but others think differently. That's Liverpool's goalkeeper Reina!
Reyna was not different from what the Liverpool player thought, and in fact he didn't expect Zhang Tiehan to choose to shoot directly. But when the football rushes over, it doesn't matter what you think, the most important thing as a goalkeeper is to hold the goal, seeing the football rushing over, Reina's spirit immediately tensed, fortunately, this shot is far enough away. It allows him to react and make a save.
But that's all
When Reyna flew to make a save, he realized that the angle of the ball was too tricky, and the ball went straight to the bottom left corner of the goal, almost flying past his hand against the post, and he judged the right position. But he still couldn't save the ball, and he almost watched the football fly into the goal.
At this moment, Reina was a little desperate.
It's the last time
The game was about to end, but in the end it was Chelsea who scored a goal, what it meant was self-evident, Liverpool would not even have a chance, when Reina was in the air, what flowed through his mind was the scene of training with Zhang Tiehan, when Zhang Tiehan was constantly practicing long-range shooting, and he was continuing to save as a goalkeeper, that experience was very important to him, this time last year, he was not very famous, although he came to Liverpool as the future No. 1 goalkeeper, succeeding Dudek, but compared to those world-class goalkeepers, he is still a little too young and immature.
It was the time he spent training with Zhang Tiehan that made him grow up very quickly.
Now competing with Zhang Tiehan on the same stage, two goals have been scored, and just now it was another one, that is, Zhang Tiehan faced him again and completed a hat trick.
The last goal also decided the outcome of the game.
The failure of his save also meant that Liverpool lost the game, they tried the whole game and the result was still a failure, and he felt very guilty, very guilty.
So when he fell on the grass, Reina knelt there with his head in his hands, full of grief.
It's the same with other Liverpool players, when they see the football flying into the goal, they don't know what they think, a whole game of hard work, in exchange for failure, they don't want to face failure, but now they have to face it.
Their faces were all very regretful.
Lose
They were no strangers to it, but the loss was very sad for them because they fought the whole game, and a few seconds ago, the score was 3-3 and the game was about to end.
"Lore!"
Sky TV commentator Alfer shouted out the title!
A real lore!
The goal in the final minute of the game was enough to make the two teams look different......
Chelsea were ecstatic, everyone on the bench rushed out, shouting frantically in celebration, and the Chelsea fans in the stands also stood up one by one, excited and unable to extricate themselves; Liverpool, on the other hand, were gloomy, including the players on the pitch, the tens of thousands of Liverpool fans in the stands, and their manager Rafael Benitez.
