Chapter 129: The Final Sprint (5)

"!" George got up from the ground, looked at Sigan who had put it on him, and cursed.

The game has reached the third minute of the second half, neither side has scored, a sudden heavy rain has caused a lot of trouble for both sides, making both players tired one by one, if it is not for the importance of this game, I am afraid that there are really few people who will fight hard in this situation.

'Oji was put in by Sigan and Liverpool got a free-kick from around 24 yards, which was a good opportunity for Liverpool.

Indeed, a free kick about 24 meters away from the goal, this distance is the best shooting distance for a free kick master, and if you can't break the opponent's goal in a sports battle, then a set-piece is undoubtedly the best way.

"Hopefully Liverpool can seize this opportunity, because there is not much time left in the game, and if the two sides draw, I am afraid that this result will not be acceptable to either side."

The commentator was chattering about his opinions, while the players of Liverpool and Arsenal stood on the pitch one by one panting, and began to prepare for the attack and defense of this free kick.

At this time, the players on both sides were already exhausted, and even George was put by Sigan, if he had been put before, he would definitely yell at Sigan and even make a move. But George didn't do this, and his tired body made George lose his anger at this time, and just mechanically jumped up on the pitch to head the goal.

Equally. Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira, tormented by heavy rain. At this time, there is no temper at all. Because everyone is very tired now, even if they want to fire, they don't have the strength, it's better to be honest and save a little physical energy.

Murphy and Colwill stood in front of the goal, calmly watching the Arsenal players line up one by one. Delaying time, in the 21st minute of the second half, Lao Bei replaced Smitchell, who was already unable to run, with Murphy.

However, Colwill and Murphy have no problem either, and if you Arsenal want to delay a little time, then we can also take the opportunity to rest.

However, no matter how Arsenal grinded, the human wall was finally lined up under the command of the referee. Seeing that everything was ready, the referee blew the final whistle.

"Are you coming or am I coming?" Stand in front of the ball. Murphy asked Cowell beside him.

"I'd better forget it. I don't have any strength now. It's better for you to come. Murphy asked. Cowell said with a tired look on his face.

Saw Colwill give up the ball to himself. Murphy didn't say anything either. Just nodded in understanding. With the referee's whistle. Murphy smacked up. Send the ball towards the penalty area.

That's right. Murphy's free-kick was not a direct goal. Instead, he chose to pass. Although it was a very well-placed free kick. But due to the rain. The ball was also slippery and heavy. Murphy also knew he couldn't accurately control the angle and power of his shots. The shot was basically a waste of a good set-piece opportunity. Murphy is not stupid. He was not sure that he would be able to breach the Earth Gate of He-Man's handle. So Murphy went straight to passing.

The height of the ball is not very high. But the degree is fast. Go down to the far corner of the goal.!! Dietmar. A great header. Finally rewrote the game on the field. Liverpool lead 1-0. At this time. The title is so close to Liverpool. ”

At the moment of Murphy's pass. Hamann after determining where the ball landed. Shake off the ground mines beside you. Rush to the far corner of the goal and wait for the rabbit. You don't even have to jump. Directly and lightly topped. Sent the ball into Seaman to guard the Earth goal.

"This is a valuable goal, this goal can not only give Liverpool the lead in the game, or it can be said that this goal can ensure Liverpool win this game, if you look a little further, this goal can help Liverpool win the English championship that they haven't won for 12 years, so this goal is worth a thousand gold."

"Goal!" Seeing the ball lying in the goal, Hamann was also at a loss, the game had been played for so long, no matter how much he kicked and how he couldn't score, could he have scored a goal with a light top, and Liverpool took the lead.

Finally, the narrator's words woke up the stunned Harman, who didn't know where the strength came from, and began to roar towards the bench.

On the side of the court, Hamann took off his jersey directly, threw it aside, and began to celebrate wildly with head coach Lao Bei.

With Hamann's goal, the Liverpool fans, who had been silent for a long time, burst into loud cheers, just like the players, who were very tired from the heavy rain. Unbeknownst to everyone, Liverpool finally broke the deadlock on the pitch and took the lead.

You must know that Liverpool had many better chances before and did not change the game on the field, so when it came time to win a free-kick, the tired Liverpool fans did not have much hope. But now it was different, Hamann scored and Liverpool took the lead, leaving the more than 70,000 Liverpool fans in attendance as if they had just entered Anfield, full of energy and celebrating wildly.

"Well done, Dietmar, I knew you kid could do it!" Lao Bei was also excited at this time, what this goal meant, Lao Bei probably knows better than anyone else.

Thinking that he was able to help Liverpool win the league title after a 12-year absence, Lao Bei felt that this feeling was really great to be able to help Valencia win the La Liga title after a long absence. Liverpool, who came to England in another place, was also able to lead Liverpool to win the long-awaited English championship in his first season.

Lao Bei knows very well that he relies on these two wonderful coaching seasons and his own credit like a savior. I can definitely become the best coach in the world.

Of course, all of this is built on Liverpool winning the English title this season. So Lao Bei knows very well that he does have to thank Hamann, the scorer.

Hamann's goal stunned not only Liverpool fans, but also Liverpool players and Arsenal players. When the players on both sides reacted, the Liverpool players suddenly chased Hamann like they had taken medicine. I don't look tired at all. The Arsenal players lost their eyes one by one, and Hamandi's goal not only gave Liverpool the lead, but also dealt a serious blow to the morale of the Arsenal players.

Both sides, who were already exhausted, were fighting for the championship and for one breath. Now Hamann has scored and Liverpool are ahead. The breath that the Arsenal players were holding in their hearts suddenly vented, making all the Arsenal players feel very frustrated and tired, and the fighting spirit was instantaneous, and Wenger on the Arsenal bench was also pale, looking at Hamann who was celebrating with blank eyes, and muttered.

Arsene Wenger knew very well that Hamann's goal would give Liverpool the lead. It was a serious blow to the morale of Arsenal's players. This made the morale of the Arsenal players, who were not good at rain battles, completely demoralized, and it was basically impossible to equalize the score in such a situation.

The game started again, but by this time Arsenal were demoralized. Coupled with the exhaustion of one by one, there was not the slightest idea of counter-attacking and equalizing. Even if the ball gets in front of Liverpool's penalty area, whether it's Thierry Henry or Bergkamp. Both Hyypia and Yepes would take good care of both.

Similarly, Liverpool after taking the lead. He was also exhausted, and he didn't have the heart to prepare for the lead again. On the contrary, they all shrank in their own half, looking like they were defending with all their might and delaying time. Lao Bei even replaced Colwill who couldn't run with Traore, and played a back five formation, and it was clear that Lao Bei was ready to defend the one-goal advantage.

Lao Bei's thoughts naturally can't be hidden from the old fox Wenger, but he knows it, but Wenger has nothing to do with Lao Bei. I can only watch Liverpool start to defend with all their might, time is losing little by little, and they are in a hurry on the sidelines.

At this time, Wenger is eager to lead the players to attack himself, but this is only Wenger's personal opinion.

In this way, the pace of the game slowed down all of a sudden, and the game suddenly became very boring. Under normal circumstances, fans would probably be booed because of dissatisfaction, after all, fans come to the stadium to watch the game, they just want to see a good game, and they don't like to see a negative game.

But this time it was different, more than 70,000 Liverpool fans were stunned and did not mean to be dissatisfied, and even cheered when they saw Lao Bei replacing Colwill with Traore, ready to start defending with all their might.

At this time, Liverpool fans don't care too much, as long as their team can lead Arsenal, as long as they delay the last few minutes until full-time, that's fine.

The Liverpool fans all got up from their seats, began to put their shoulders on each other's shoulders with the fans they didn't know next to them, and began to sing the Liverpool team song together. The fans want to support the team with their singing so that the team can safely get through the last few minutes.

Looking at Liverpool, who were ready to defend to the death, the Arsenal players, who were already demoralized, had no idea of attacking to equalize. But not everyone thinks so, at least the arrogant Henry hasn't given up at this time, dragging his tired body and constantly running in front of Liverpool's penalty area to reach for the ball.

Although he is an opponent, Henry's spirit of never giving up has won the appreciation of Liverpool fans, although the ball was cut off by Carragher and Traore again and again, but Liverpool fans still gave Henry a round of applause.

"Henry's shot, Ao is really a pity, it seems that Henry is now out of fitness, this shot actually missed and fell to the ground, but in any case, Henry's never-say-die spirit is still worthy of our encouragement."

In the 44th minute of the second half, Henry received a pass from Ljungberg and opened a gap to shoot, but because the field was very slippery, Henry didn't even kick the ball, but fell to the ground because of this, seeing Henry so desperate. Some moved and some helplessly shook their heads and waved their big hands. Replace Thierry Henry with a substitute striker.

Arsene Wenger already knew at this time that it was basically impossible for Arsenal to equalise, and it could be said that after a few minutes, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and Arsenal could be said to be the same as Manchester United. The fight for the championship was completely lost.

It's all been like this, and Wenger won't do anything useless to keep Thierry Henry on the pitch, and if he gets injured, it will undoubtedly be worse news for Arsenal. The league title is gone, but at least there's still the Champions League. It's hard to win the title, but at least there's a chance. Thinking of this, Arsene Wenger replaced Henry, ready to protect Henry and avoid Henry's injury, so that he could compete for the Champions League with all his might.

The song "You'll Never Walk Alone" kept wafting around the Anfield stadium and everyone was looking forward to it. Expect the referee to blow the whistle for the end of the game.

The referee on duty was also very face-saving, seeing that the game had entered stoppage time, and the Arsenal players had completely given up, and they couldn't even see the slightest idea of attacking. See this happens. The referee was also unceremonious, and directly blew the whistle for the complete end of the game.

"Wow!" When the referee blew the whistle for the whole game. The entire Anfield stadium was in a frenzy, with more than 70,000 Liverpool fans celebrating wildly. Because all Liverpool fans know that Liverpool's biggest rival on the road to the title has been beaten by themselves. Then Liverpool are getting closer and closer to the title.

Looking at the opponents that Liverpool will face in the remaining few games, all of them are not very good teams, and in this case, Liverpool can be said to have touched the championship trophy with one hand.

Not only in Anfield, but also outside the stadium, there were also tens of thousands of Liverpool fans who did not have tickets to enter the stadium, and at the same time as the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, they began to celebrate wildly, and at this moment, Liverpool City suddenly fell into a sea of madness.

And the Liverpool soldiers, when they heard the whistle at the end of the game, all felt that their strength disappeared, and they all fell to the ground weakly, and the most tired George and Hyypia even fell directly on the field and began to sleep.

George was because he kept running to compete with the opposing defenders, and then jumped up to grab the header and hit the goal, which exhausted his physical energy, while Hyypia was highly concentrated in the whole game, and he didn't dare to relax at all, so that his mental power was overdepleted. When the whistle blew at the end of the game, the two of them could finally put their hearts at ease, and because they had no attachment, they suddenly fell to the ground and fell asleep.

This scene made Lao Bei also frightened, and hurriedly rushed over with the team doctor and staff, and was relieved after learning that the two were tired.

"It's okay, it's just because I'm tired, it's not that there's something wrong. You know, Liverpool can't do without the two of you at the moment! Lao Bei looked at the two who were already asleep, waved his hand with a touched face, and asked the staff to carry the two down on stretchers to rest. You must know that the two are the team's top scorers, one is the team's defensive core, although the next opponent is not good, but Lao Bei does not dare to be careless, after all, Liverpool likes to play a big collapse at the last moment.

The news of Liverpool's victory over Arsenal at home suddenly spread from Liverpool City to the whole of England and even the whole of Europe in a few degrees.

At this moment, no one will doubt that in this case, there will be suspense about the ownership of the English championship, of course, unless Liverpool can't think of it and doesn't want the championship, but this is obviously impossible.

For the result of this game, the whole of the United Kingdom has a different speech, the pro-Liverpool media did not hesitate to praise their own praise, crazy praise of the whole Liverpool team, even the substitute players have said it over and over again, and always believe that this is the signal of Liverpool's rise, the real Red Devils will eventually become the hegemony of England again.

The pro-Arsenal media believe that Liverpool's victory was due to complete luck, and a heavy rain deprived Arsenal of their best ground attack, otherwise it would have been Arsenal who won.

However, those media seem to have given up, and it is not only Arsenal that has been affected by this heavy rain, but also Liverpool, who have also lost their best fast attack because of this heavy rain.

The neutral media studied all the factors of the game on both sides very objectively and calmly, and then began to brag about their own opinions rationally without pleasing either side. However, there is one thing that the neutral media will not doubt, that is, as long as Liverpool does not make mistakes themselves, then this season's English championship is none other than Liverpool.

Just when the outside media was arguing, at this time, the Liverpool players were tired and sleeping on their favorite beds, not knowing that the outside world had already quarreled on the Internet at this time.
