Chapter 151: Stabbed Again

Abang Lajo ran wild with the ball.

Gaitan chased after him.

Benfica's two central defenders had just run out of the Villa penalty area at this time.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In an instant, Abang Lajo was in front of the Benfica penalty area.

In the face of Oblak, Abonlaho chose to shoot behind the opponent.

The ball went in.

At this moment, the audience was silent.

Abonlaho scored a solo goal, and the Villa team unexpectedly took the lead, and it was Jose who assisted.

To have such a good one-handed opportunity, in addition to Jose's timely kick-off, what is more important is that Benfica pressed too much.

Except for goalkeeper Oblak, all the Benfica players passed the Villa half.

In the Premier League, this is unlikely to happen.

Even if the top team faces the bottom team, when attacking, one or two players will stay in their own half.

Benfica, who won the Portuguese Super League title in advance, obviously didn't take Villa too seriously.

Don't they know that there are no weak teams in the Premier League?

Villa have a one-goal lead away from home, and Benfica will have to chase two goals in a row if they want to advance.

But will José give them that chance?

Of course not.

So, no matter how fierce Benfica's attack is.

Jose is holding the Diaoyutai steadily.

The Europa League final is scheduled for May 14 and Jose has plenty of time to prepare.

Plus you don't have to think about penalty shootouts.

José began to use stunts without hesitation.

In the end, the Villa team eliminated the arrogant Benfica 1-0 away.

When the referee blows the full-time end whistle, in the chat room.

"Haha, that's so cool."

"It turns out that in football, you don't have to watch goals."

"The black shop deserves it."

"I thought I would win a Portuguese Super League championship in advance, and I started to see no one."

"The Premier League is the number one league."

"It's still my car that has accumulated more points for the Premier League, only my car is in the Champions League semi-finals, and the Europa League also relied on my car's goalkeeper to advance to the final."

"Cut"

After the game, the game was widely reported by the media.

"Genius Goalkeeper, One-Man Shooter"

"Who said that the sons and daughters of China can't play football? 》

Who is the world's number one goalkeeper? I vote for José"

All kinds of exaggerated headlines emerge one after another, as if the Villa team really won the championship.

In fact, Villa's chances of winning the title are slim as they will face Serie A giants Juventus in the final.

Juventus under Antonio Conte's leadership won the league title this season earlier than Benfica.

In Serie A, they have only lost two games and drawn three, arguably the team with the best results in the top five leagues.

Their only pursuit now is to win the Europa League at the end of the day.

Although fans always say that Conte is a layman, with Juventus' lineup, even if he is on a leash in the coach's seat, he can win the championship.

José knew in his heart that it wasn't time to celebrate.

Heading into May, this season's Parliamentary League games have been played and Grealish is back from Notts County.

With three league games remaining, Grealish may be able to get a chance to play.

The last time I played with Grealish was two years ago.

3 days later.

May 4th.

The 37th round of the English Premier League continues.

Villa host 15th-placed Hull City.

Hull City now have 37 points, five points clear of 18th-placed Norwich, and with two games remaining, Hull City can be said to have successfully avoided relegation.

Hull City kicked off first, but none of their attacks made their way into the Villa box.

Within a minute, Villa had a good chance to open the scoring.

Villa split the ball at the back and got to the feet of Abonlaho.

Abang Lajo broke down the left and crossed to Albrighton.

On the left side of the Hull penalty area, Albrighton picked up a pass from a team-mate and fired a shot at goal.

Something that made people speechless happened, and he actually kicked it empty.

Thankfully, the ball was still under his control.

It's just that the angle of the shot is gone.

Albrighton opted for a back pass and the ball was at the feet of Westwood.

On the edge of the box, Westwood fired a powerful shot into a streamer of light and flew towards the bottom right corner of the goal.

Hull City Harper was still on the left side of the goal at this time and could not have had time to save.

He could only watch as the ball rolled into the back of the net.

Villa had an early lead over their opponents.

In the 23rd minute, Abang Laho raised his hand to signal that he was injured and could not hold on.

In desperation, Paul Lambert began to make substitutions.

Bauery came off the bench.

Just five minutes later, Bauery scored.

Hull City win a free-kick in front.

The penalty spot is 30 yards away from the goal.

Huddlestone was in charge of handling the free-kick opportunity.

A direct shot?

No, Huddlestone opted to pass the ball straight into the box.

On the left side of the Villa penalty area, Rosseniel, who was in an offside position, received the ball and shot at goal.

If the ball goes in, or is cleared, the Hull free-kick is finished.

However, something that left people speechless happened.

Bauery, who had just come on as a substitute, actually blocked Rosseniel's shot into his own door.

Jose touched the ball without using stunts and it was difficult to block the goal.

Shockingly, Bauery scored an own goal within five minutes of playing.

Relying on Bauerry's own goal, Hull City equalised.

In the 41st minute, Villa won a corner.

Delph takes a corner.

On the edge of the six-yard box, Baker heads home.

As a result, Jelavic barely blocked it.

The ball that was blocked flew in the direction of Baker.

Baker's header goes over again.

It hit the beam.

The ball bounced off the framework.

Jelavic wants a header cleared.

It didn't turn out.

The ball fell on Weimann's head.

From close range, Weimann headed home.

The ball finally flew into the goal of Hull City.

Villa are leading again.

First half stoppage time.

Bauery crosses from the left.

The ball went over Weimann's head.

From 10 yards out, Weimann headed home.

The ball went in again.

Bauery, who came off the bench, scored a goal and an assist, which made people feel angry and funny.

With Hull City not wanting much to attack, and Villa already leading by two goals, the second half became garbage time.

Jose made just two saves in this game.

Because the opponent only had two shots on goal.

Compared to the game a few days ago, it was too easy.

After 37 rounds, the fourth-place Arsenal has 76 points, which can be regarded as a qualifying ticket for the Champions League.

Of course, they won the championship at halftime, but they still lost the championship in the end.

Villa, on the other hand, completely lost hope of finishing in the top four.

Paul Lambert decided to start giving some young players a chance to play in the final two games.

May 7th.

A replay in the Premier League was played at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester City host Villa.

In this game, if Manchester City wins, they will overtake Liverpool by 2 points and thus take the lead.

If it's just a draw, Manchester City will be in first place on goal difference.

So, for Manchester City, it's a title race.

The starting line-ups for both sides were announced before the start of the game.

For Villa, Bauery got the chance to start, and Paul Lambert put on a back five formation, the specific list is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Jose.

Defenders: Bertrand, Clark, Nathan Baker, Vlaar, Lowton.

Midfielders: Delph, Westwood, Ahmadi.

Forwards: Weimann, Bauerry.

In addition, Bacuna, Robinson, Grealish were on the bench.

Robinson and Grealish have both fought with Jose in the youth team, I wonder if there is a chance to play together in this game?

As for Manchester City, Sergio Aguero is out through injury and takes his place with David Silva.

The specific list is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart.

Defenders: Kolarov, Demichelis, Kompany, Zabaleta.

Defenders: Yaya Toure, Xavi Garcia.

Defenders: Nasri, David Silva, James Milner.

Striker: Dzeko.

Manchester City's starting line-up is extremely luxurious, and their bench is filled with the likes of Jovetic, Fernandinho and Negredo.

Originally, this was just an ordinary make-up game, but because of the championship factor, there were unusually many fans who paid attention to this game.

Mr. Zhan and Coach Zhang sat in the live broadcast room early, analyzing the situation of the players of the two teams and the current situation of the Premier League championship for the fans.

In the live chat room, message boards flashed rapidly.

"Come on, my city, this season's treble will be on this one." It's Manchester City fans.

"If you want to eat fart, the FA cup has been eliminated, and the thermos cup is from my factory." This is an Arsenal fan.

"Come on, cousin, you must not let the toilet win the championship." Obviously, this is a Manchester United fan.

'Come on Villa, we must stop City from winning.' This could be a Liverpool fan.

"Come on, José, love you." This is Jose's female fan.

In fact, in this game, the Villa team is the side that has no desire.

Jose has kept 21 clean sheets this season and has already won the Golden Glove award.

Winning the Golden Glove award for two consecutive seasons will guarantee a place in the main team when he returns to Chelsea?

Originally, it was possible.

But not long ago, Jose learned that Courtois also won the Golden Glove award at Atletico Madrid.

You must know that Atletico Madrid's opponents have two cosmic teams.

In addition, Courtois's Atletico Madrid eliminated Jose Mourinho's Chelsea and entered the finals.

If in the final, Atletico Madrid beat Real Madrid, then everything is difficult to say.

Local time.

19:45.

With the referee's whistle blowing.

The competition has officially begun.

Villa kick off first.

It's just that the attack of the Villa team can't even get through the midfield.

Under pressure from the Manchester City players, Villa conceded a goal in midfield.

Manchester City organized a counter-attack on the spot.

Various passes, the ball reached Nasri's feet.

From outside the box, Nasri's shot was also unsuccessful to threaten Jose.

'After the opening kick-off, Manchester City were in a lot of momentum and you could see that they wanted to win this game. Teacher Zhan said.

2nd minute.

City's second wave of attacks has arrived.

On the left edge of the Villa penalty area.

David Silva breaks through with the ball.

Westwood defended it.

Just as David Silva burst into the box and was about to continue his run inside, he fell.

Westwood foul point?
