Villa were awarded a penalty.

"He faked a fall, and I didn't touch him." Jose was the first to explain, but the referee insisted on his decision.

In fact, video replays from the scene show that José did not touch Suarez at all.

", shameless, fake fall."

"The splash was very small, and the referee gave 10 points."

"It's a perfect jump, and this year's diving award will definitely belong to Yasu."

"Nima, do you want to be awarded a penalty every time you face Liverpool."

"Professor Bu has changed everything, and this product has never been a ball in his life."

Fans complained.

Including this time, Jose has faced Liverpool a total of four times, three of which have been awarded penalties.

You don't even dare to write like this when writing a book, do you?

Since the referee insisted on awarding a penalty, Jose stopped arguing.

Arguing with the referee on the pitch is never a wise thing to do.

Needless to say, it was Gerrard who was still in charge of the penalty.

The first two penalties against Steven Gerrard were saved by Jose.

Now facing Gerrard for the third time, Jose has a faint feeling in his heart that something is not good.

Jose is well aware that the plug-in given to him by the system is indeed extremely powerful, but not to the point of invincibility, at least Lampard has successfully scored a penalty.

In addition, the statistics show that Gerrard's last five penalties have all hit, and the last time Gerrard missed a penalty was last season.

"In that case, let's do it." José stood on the goal line, moved his body, and let out a soft snort.

"Beep."

The whistle blew and Gerrard slowly ran towards the penalty spot.

Without a pause, he opted to volley straight into the bottom right corner.

The ball was very fast, and the shooting line was close to the bottom right corner.

Such a penalty, for the average goalkeeper, even if he judges the right direction, may not be able to get it.

"Time and space pause."

Within a second of pause, Jose flew to the right side of the goal.

He was tall and long, and in full view of everyone, saved Gerrard's penalty.

"Whoa." The Villa fans burst into applause from the stands.

"Haha, God has eyes, it's not yours after all."

"That's right."

José didn't celebrate as the Villa fans cheered, but quickly got up from the ground as he needed to prevent a second shot.

Sure enough, as if he knew that his penalty would be saved, Gerrard immediately flew towards the saved ball.

On the right side of the small penalty area, Gerrard made a second shot.

This time he opted to pick up the left side of the goal.

Jose had just finished his stunt and was on the right side of the goal, making it impossible to make a second save on the left side of the goal.

What to do?

José's brain is racing.

"Fight."

José suddenly leaped high in front of the goal.

He wanted to intercept Gerrard's second shot halfway through.

It's football, after all, and Gerrard's volley is only 3 metres high.

With Jose's bounce power, it can still be done, the question is whether it can be in time.

"No, it's a little bit closer."

Jose tried his best, but the ball still passed over his head little by little.

"I'm not reconciled." José wailed.

Jose was unable to keep the ball out of mid-air and could only watch as it flew towards the left side of the goal.

Eventually, the ball flew into the goal from the top left corner.

Liverpool pull a goal back.

"Alas, it's a pity."

"It's okay, even if Lily recovers a goal, Villa still have a goal ahead."

Steven Gerrard's goal gave Liverpool hope of equalising, and in the final three minutes, they launched an even more fierce attack.

However, Jose never let the other side find any chances.

"Beep, beep, beep~"

In the 96th minute, the referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game.

"Oh yes, my husband won." A barrage with oversized font emerges.

“？？？”

After this campaign, Villa have won four consecutive league games and moved up to fifth place in the league standings.

With an early exit from the FA Cup, Villa's game was much easier.

By the time the game started again, it was already 10 days away, and Villa hosted West Bromwich Albion.

At that time, the transfer period of the winter window will come to an end.

Villa haven't brought in too many players, but Bertrand's loan move has improved Villa's backline.

January 29, 19:45 local time.

At Villa Park Stadium, it suddenly rained heavily in the sky, and the temperature was only 0~3 degrees.

Villa's clash with West Brom is about to begin.

West Brom were given the first kick-off.

Just four minutes into the game, West Brom had a good chance to open the scoring.

Ridgewell passes the ball at the back and the ball reaches Brent.

From 25 yards outside the Villa box, Brent swooped in with a cold arrow.

The ball turned into a white light, flew through the rain curtain, and flew towards the top right corner of the goal.

Originally, Brent's shot could not pose a threat to Jose at all.

It's just that the lawn on a rainy day is unusually slippery.

José slipped on the sole of his foot as he moved to the right side of the goal.

There was no way, Jose used the first stunt of the game.

In this way, the opponent was given a corner kick opportunity.

The cold rain and the slippery grass made Jose understand that this game would be a big challenge for the goalkeeper.

In the 9th minute, West Brom won a free kick.

The penalty spot was far from the goal, and Jose was not worried that the opponent would shoot straight at goal.

Brent took a free-kick and he did not choose to shoot, but instead passed to the left side of the Villa penalty area.

James Morrison takes the ball on the left side of the box.

Morrison shook off Lowton's interception and then crossed into the box in front of goal.

Jose was about to attack, but stopped when he saw a number of teammates in the box.

None of West Bromwich Albion's players could touch the ball.

The first to touch the ball was Delph.

However, in the panic, Delph actually kicked the ball towards his own goal.

José didn't expect that it was his teammates who stabbed him.

In this way, West Brom led by one goal.

"Own goal, Jose is so wronged."

"Baker, who used to like own goals the most, didn't play, but now he has more Delph?"

…

"I'm sorry." Delph said apologetically to Jose.

"You can just pay me for the clean sheet." José pretended to be serious.

"Uh, this—" Delphton felt pain.

The £40,000 clean sheet bonus is equivalent to two-thirds of his salary.

"In this game, if you can score another goal against the other party, I don't want to compensate you." José said again.

"Okay." Delph nodded.

The game continues.

…

In the 12th minute, Brent's shot went straight into Jose's arms.

After a shot at the front of the field, Jose chose to kick off the goal kick quickly as soon as possible.

With a "bang", the ball was kicked into the ribs of the opponent's half by Jose.

Unfortunately, Villa's players couldn't get in touch with Jose and the first goal kick was headed over by West Bromwich Albion defender Lugano.

Lugano opted for the first header to clear.

Then, something unexpected happened.
