Chapter 57: My Heart Belongs to Liverpool (Part II)

"There it is!" Feeling his fingers touching the ball, Niemi couldn't help but think of it with secret joy. Sure enough, Niemi's finger finally touched the ball, and it was just a light touch, and the original beautiful long-range shot changed direction because of this touch, grazing the post and flying out of the bottom line.

"Ao~ It's a pity, it's almost a goal to score. The Southampton goalkeeper made a good save although I didn't like it. ”

"!" Seeing that his shot did not score, Gerrard couldn't help but curse. You must know that when he just shot at the goal, Gerrard relied on his feeling and believed that this shot was very likely to score, because at the moment when his foot touched the ball, Gerrard only felt that whether it was the angle or the power, he shot very accurately and powerfully, but he didn't expect that Southampton's goalkeeper was not ambiguous, and he was stunned to save the ball from the bottom line.

Although the fans still gave Gerrard a warm applause, Gerrard always felt bad in his heart, and it would be nice if this goal could be scored.

"Okay, it's okay, anyway, the game has just started, we have a chance, we have a corner, go up and grab a point!" Seeing Gerard standing in place with a lost face, George naturally knew what Gerard was thinking now, and couldn't help but comfort Gerard, and then rushed to the penalty area by himself, ready to start grabbing points.

"yes, it's just the start of the game, and I still have a chance." Gerrard, who finally came to his senses, immediately ran into the penalty area and quietly lurked in the crowd. Given the chance, Gerrard will surely turn into a bloodthirsty beast and send the ball into Southampton's net.

Murphy looked at the crowded forbidden area, and suddenly found the figures of George and Hyypia, no way, who called the two of them are quite tall now, not to mention that George is currently 1.82 meters, Hyypia's 1.92 meter block is placed in the crowded restricted area, it is like a lighthouse in the dark, very bright.

As the referee blew the whistle, Murphy also played the ball high into the box, and the target was Hyypia. No way, who called Hyypia is tall and can be very strong in heading.

Hyypia is great, but Southampton's two tall centre-backs are not placed there for decoration. The 1.90-meter-tall Lundekwan and the 1.88-meter-tall Svensson were sticking to Hyypia's side. When Murphy's corner kick approached Hyypia, when Hyypia jumped up to scramble for a header, Lundkwan and Svensson also jumped up, and under the defense of the two big men, Hyypia finally did not grab the first point, and the ball was grabbed by Rundkwan to the first point and pushed out of the penalty area.

After Anders Svensson got the ball, Masan turned around and rushed towards Liverpool's penalty area, and in the face of Hamann's defence, Svensson finally showed the strength of the Swedish midfield, juggling a back-heel change of direction, breaking through Hamann's defense and starting to run wildly with the ball.

Since the Liverpool players have just gone to the Southampton penalty area to compete for corners, there is no one at the back now, only Genkz and Carragher are left to stand in the backfield, and goalkeeper Dudek forms the last line of defense for Liverpool.

"I'll go up, you cover." Carragher said to Henkerz on the side, turned around and rushed towards Svensson, and Henkz was not idle, and followed Carragher less than five meters behind, in short, this distance was enough for Svensson to pass Carragher, and he couldn't pass Henkez.

Svensson was running with the ball at high speed, and at this moment he looked at Carragher, who was also rushing up quickly, and there was no time for Svensson to think about what way to choose to get past Carragher, so he could only subconsciously poke the ball, and then wanted to bypass Carragher to catch up with the ball.

But Carragher is not easy to deal with, if any person comes to face Carragher, just say it, then Carragher will definitely not become the main defender that Liverpool Ray can't beat.

Seeing that Svensson hurt the ball, and the ball suddenly accelerated before he could react in time, it had already flown behind him, Carragher knew that Svensson wanted to play the ball pass. Since Svensson was still running at high speed, there was no time for Carragher to think about how to deal with the situation. But at this moment experience began to make the best choice for Carragher, and almost without hesitation, Carragher took a step forward, just in the way of Svensson's progress.

Svensson didn't expect Carragher to react so quickly, and suddenly collided with Carragher, although Svensson deviated in time, but the shoulders of the two couldn't help bumping, which also greatly slowed down Svensson's speed.

And at this time, Henkz, who was ambushed behind Carragher, had already got the ball and passed it to the feet of Reese, who rushed back from the side, and Reeser passed the ball to Hamann, and Liverpool attacked again.

"." Svensson couldn't help but curse when he saw the failure of this quick counterattack. I don't know if Svensson is scolding Henkz and Carragher who stopped his ball, or complaining that Southampton don't have a fast attacking player to pick up.

When Svensson just turned around and was about to return to the defense, he suddenly saw that Liverpool's attack had hit the Southampton penalty area, Colwill crossed from the bottom line, George jumped high and met the flying ball in mid-air.

"Damn, there's no such evil!" Seeing Liverpool's goal, Svensson suddenly realized that there was probably no one who could stop George's header at the moment, thinking of this, Svensson couldn't help but think to himself.

Unfortunately, things turned out just as Svensson feared, and in the face of Colwill's pass, George did not waste this good opportunity and smashed the ball into the goal.

At a distance of about five meters, goalkeeper Niemi could only watch the ball fly into the goal except for subconsciously standing in place and waving his hand.

“Cooooooooooooooooal!!! George! A great header on goal, this time it showed Liverpool's teamwork and overall quality. Whether it was from the duo of Carragher and Henkz to cut off the opposition's attack, or from the pass and Colwill's breakthrough cross, until finally George's header. Everything shows how strong and different Liverpool are. You must know that this goal is a team goal, and the speed of the goal is very fast, from the break to the goal, it is less than 20 seconds, the great Liverpool, the terrifying attacking speed. ”

Less than five minutes into the game, Liverpool took the lead with George's header, and while the whole Anfield stadium was in a frenzied celebration, George also rushed to the sideline with a fierce face, shouting loudly with his hands high in the air, like a wounded beast roaring.

George knew he could score in today's game when he first started the game, because from the moment the game started, George felt his whole body tremble, which was obviously a state of excitement. But George could never have imagined that his goal would come so quickly.

"Long live Liverpool! Long live Liverpool! Long live Liverpool! George rushed to a camera and yelled at the camera as he pointed to the Liverpool crest on his shirt.

And this picture and what George said were immediately broadcast on the big screen at the scene. When the Liverpool fans heard George roaring something, they immediately roared wildly with George. Suddenly, the entire Anfield stadium resounded with rhythmic shouts, and there was only one sound, and that was long live Liverpool!
