Chapter 130: How Can Jose Rank?
The ball immediately rolled towards the bottom right corner of the goal.
Liverpool's link was fluid, with Henderson's back-heel pass being brilliant and Sturridge's shot just eight yards away.
The whole process went smoothly and Villa's defenders were exhausted.
"Ahh Villa fans have covered their faces.
And Liverpool fans are ready to cheer.
Under normal circumstances, shots from 8 yards away are rarely blocked unless they are the top goalkeepers in the world.
José is only 18 years old today.
So, no one thought Jose would be able to block Sturridge's shot.
If Jose didn't have a plug-in, there really wouldn't be much certainty that he would have completed this block.
What no one expected was that Jose had a super plug-in.
So, when people saw Jose turn into a shadow and crush Sturridge's shot under him, they were stunned.
"Shit." Sturridge couldn't help but explode.
But it still can't change the fact that his shot was saved.
In the end, the Villa team ended the first half with a two-goal advantage.
Intermission, live chat room.
"What do you think Jose can rank among the goalkeepers in the world?" Suddenly, someone asked.
'I'll count, Neuer, Gianluigi Buffon, Cech, Courtois, the top 10 should be fine.'
"I think the top three are fine."
"The top three are over, the top five are over."
"I really envy the goalkeeper reserve of the bus." A fan said quietly.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Brendan Rodgers made the first substitution.
He replaced Coutinho with Lucas.
Coutinho had a mediocre performance in this game, and after the game, he was the second lowest scorer outside of Mignolet.
Lucas came on and Liverpool changed to a 433 formation.
Rodgers is clearly stepping up his offense.
In the 47th minute, Sterling cut the ball.
The ball went to Suarez.
On the left side of the box, Suarez shoots into the far corner.
Jose struck decisively.
On the path of the ball, José took it down with both hands.
In the 53rd minute, Liverpool got a free kick opportunity.
Suarez volleys straight into the far corner.
Jose flew again to pounce.
In the 57th minute, Raheem Sterling passed.
From 20 yards out, Sturridge fired low.
Jose bends over to confiscate the ball.
In the 60th minute, Villa counterattacked.
Benteke passes the ball to Delph.
On the edge of HLD, Delph volleyed into the right side of the goal from 25 yards.
Unfortunately, his shot grazed the post and went off the line.
In the 64th minute, Glenn Johnson passed.
Suarez volleys from the edge of the box.
Jose jumped on the spot and took the ball straight away.
In the 65th minute, Liverpool had a good chance.
Suarez and Sturridge combined with successive passes.
Villa's backline is completely confused by the duo.
Facing a muddyed backline, Jose had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, Villa's players only focused on defending two, and ended up missing Henderson, who quietly entered the box.
Suarez crosses into the six-yard box.
Unmarked, Henderson came out first.
In the six-yard box, Henderson stabbed the ball into the bottom right corner of the goal.
"Time and space pause."
Jose didn't hesitate, the opponent's shot was too close.
If you don't use stunts, there is a high probability that the ball will cross the goal line when it does.
After a one-second pause in the stunt, Jose took two steps to the right side of the goal, then stretched out his left foot to completely block the ball's rolling path.
Jose single-handedly blocked Henderson's shot.
“Oh,My God。” Seeing Jose actually block his shot with his foot, Henderson held his head to the sky and roared.
In the 66th minute, Brendan Rodgers was forced to make a substitution.
Lucas, who came off the bench, went off injured.
Joe Allen came off the bench.
A minute later, Raheem Sterling broke down the wing.
Near the bottom line on the right side of the Villa penalty area, Raheem Sterling crosses with a big foot.
The ball goes over in front of the goal.
Jose calculated that if he attacked by himself, there was a 50% chance that he would take the ball directly.
But if he fails, Henderson from far post will surely score with a header.
Jose decisively took a half-step back and turned to look at Henderson in the distance.
However, Henderson didn't get on target, instead heading the ball into the middle.
Suarez killed.
From five yards out in front of the penalty area, Suarez completed a header.
The ball flies towards the top right corner of the goal.
Dangerous, very dangerous.
If there are no special circumstances, Suarez's header will be a must-have goal.
However, special circumstances arose.
The man who guarded the door was José.
Another plane pause was thrown out.
Although it was only one second, it was enough to move Jose from the center of the goal to the right side of the goal.
Jose once again blocked Suarez's must-have goal.
“Oh shit.” Seeing Jose holding the ball in both hands, Suarez couldn't help but explode.
The game continues.
Liverpool stepped up their attack on Villa.
Suarez, Sturridge, Raheem Sterling, Gerrard and others worked together like a cloud.
Villa's players can only stop their advance by constantly fouling them.
In the 77th minute, Liverpool got another free kick opportunity.
Suarez is in charge of handling.
The penalty spot is about 30 yards from the goal.
Jose just lined up a two-person wall.
Because of this distance, the role of the human wall is no longer significant.
What Jose needs to guard against more is that Suarez passes the ball to the middle.
Because then the threat would be greater.
However, Suarez did not and opted for a direct and powerful volley.
The ball immediately turned into a white light, easily crossed the wall, and then flew towards the top left corner of the goal.
José tried his best to leap towards the top left corner of the goal and extended his right hand at the same time.
Suarez's free-kick was beautiful.
However, Jose's save was even more impressive.
"You say Jose is 10th among goalkeepers in the world? Why do I think he is stronger than everyone else? ”
"Well, I think so too, the save in this game is just leaky."
"Anyway, as long as there is a game in the future, the draw will be won."
"You're exaggerating, it's just a goalkeeper, Yashin can't save all the shots and win the game."
Liverpool couldn't attack for a long time, and some players began to be agitated.
For example, Sturridge directly pushed Bakuna down in the scramble with Bacuna.
However, the referee did not say anything and instead showed a yellow card to Bacuna.
The reason was that the referee thought Bakuna was stalling for time.
Before you know it, the game is in the 90th minute.
Steven Gerrard played a long ball from the flanks and the ball went straight to the left side of the box.
Suarez burst into the box and took the first step to control the ball.
At this point, Suarez was completely in a one-handed position.
Jose knew that he couldn't let the other party get close, so he decisively chose to attack.
On the left side of the Villa penalty area, Jose flew to the ball at Suarez's feet.
Just as José was about to get closer, Suarez suddenly fell to the ground.
"Beep, beep" the referee blew the whistle.
The referee decided that it was Jose who knocked Suarez down.
