Football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Chapter 377 Never Walk Alone
The Liverpool team anthem infected the lost Liverpool players on the pitch.

If it is said that "Midfield Wine" has inspired the enthusiasm of the Sporting Lisbon players, allowing them to overcome the physical crisis and burst out with strength beyond the norm.

So at this moment, the melody of "Never Walk Alone" is like an ancient battle song, making Liverpool players feel the power of all players and stars in team history.

They are not alone!

They are not alone!

The camera panned across the stands, and the current England coach and former Liverpool legend Kevin Keegan also stood up and sang Never Walk Alone.

At this moment, the souls of superstars such as Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush, Kenny Dalglish, etc., Liverpool players quickly lined up, ready to kick off with a heavy heart, to welcome this season against them Talk about the most important last few minutes!

The showers have gradually stopped and the clouds have dispersed, which seems to mean that the haze of Liverpool has passed.

A whistle blows and the game restarts.

All Sporting Lisbon players, including Ibrahimovic, returned to their own half.

Deng Kai directed every teammate to defend and did not give Liverpool any chance.

Such behavior should have ushered in the boos of the fans.

But no boos.

Only Liverpool's team song came from around, which was endless and trembling.

Soon the regular game time is over.

The fourth official on the sidelines played a 5-minute stoppage time card.

Because more goals were scored in the second half, there was such a long stoppage time.

Triguera immediately complained to the fourth referee that the stoppage time was too long, but it was obviously in vain.

In the second minute of stoppage time, Owen caught the ball and directly ate Bento raw after retreating, and was brought down by Bento.

Bento has received a yellow card.

Deng Kai and Gerrard looked at Bento at the same time, and then paid attention to each other.

Alarm bells rang in Deng Kai's heart.

Bento's mobility is worse than that of Deschamps, and his defensive prediction, positional sense, and football intelligence are not as good as Deschamps. Liverpool stares at Bento, and it is easy to play opportunities.

"Mateus, lean towards Bento, and I'll be in charge of this side." Deng Kai adjusted his position and strengthened the protection behind Bento.

But at the same time, Gerrard is also communicating with his teammates.

In the 4th minute of stoppage time, Liverpool was away from their first cup treble in team history.

However, Gerrard, who has never been good at breakthroughs, even directly challenged Portuguese defensive midfielder Paulo Bento through dribbling under his feet.

boom!
Gerrard's feint failed to fool Bento, but he didn't count on it either.

He flicked the ball directly, and then ran away, relying on his speed to eat Bento.

Bento pulled and tugged, but Gerrard led him over.

boom!
Before Gerrard, who passed Bento, could make other moves, he flew into the air.

Beep beep!

The referee blew his whistle crazily.

He pointed to Mateus who was shoveling.

The Liverpool players surrounded them emotionally.

"Mateus! This is a key defense. Mateus brought Gerrard down. Otherwise, Gerrard can shoot from a long distance and find Owen and Fowler in front... But Mateus this time It’s definitely going to be a card.”

"The referee stopped the conflict between the two sides. He called Mateus. This is a card!"

"Red card! Sure enough! Mateus is indeed a red card action! The referee's penalty is no problem!"

"Mateus' decision-making ability is really strong, he has no hesitation, but if he is half a second slower, Gerrard will be really unstoppable."

"Although the price of a red card is heavy, considering the rest of the game, Matthaus is likely to have contributed a textbook-level foul defense!"

"The fans of Sporting Lisbon applauded Mr. Ballon d'Or."

"Liverpool fans are abusing, it seems that they also know that it is Liverpool who have suffered more."

"Liverpool got a free kick in a good position, but it was a little far away... Who will take this free kick?"

"Gerald! Surprisingly, it's Gerald!"

Sporting Lisbon is lining up the wall.

They didn't know anything about Gerrard's penalty habits, because Liverpool didn't have Gerrard in the top three free kicks in the team.

This is a temporary decision.

But soon, Irving also stood behind the football.

This is a two-person free kick tactic, and Gerrard has a high probability of playing a screen role.

Everyone thinks so.

beep!

A whistle sounded.

boom!
Just as the whistle sounded, Gerrard, who was closer to the football, kicked the football to the right of the wall with his legs on the spot.

This kick was too sudden!
Irving, one of the top ten footballers in the world, hadn't even made a move yet, and a little Gerrard directly took a free kick. This...

boom!
On the right side of the human wall, Ronaldo rushed towards the football with quick eyesight and quick hands.

Gerrard's kick is not a direct hit, but a pass.

boom!
However, Robbie Fowler was faster with his left foot and shot the football with one kick.

Swish!
Blocked by the field of vision of the defensive players, Schmeichel did not see the football at all.

The football went straight into the net.

Liverpool's players rushed to the corner flag like crazy.

"Come in! Go in! Go in! Liverpool! Liverpool that never walks alone!"

"It's really in! Oh cake seller!"

"It's amazing! This game is really amazing!"

"In the 4th minute of stoppage time, Liverpool tied the opponent with a free kick! Four to four equalized the score!"

"If Deng Kai's direct goal from a corner kick is the most direct manifestation of Sporting Lisbon's youth storm, then Gerrard's handling of this free kick is also a flash of genius!"

"Gerrard, one pass and one shot, he is the Beckham of Liverpool!"

"Of course, the most important thing is Fowler! Fowler's shot is steady and fast! It's hard to imagine what the story would be like if it was Husky who shot the goal!"

"Robbie Fowler! This is God's genius killer! He reminds people of Manchester United's substitute killer Babyface Solskjaer, but he is much better than that babyface!"

"Houllier's arrangement is impeccable. Replacing Gerrard and Fowler is the most correct decision he made! This is a generation of famous coaches!"

"In this way, the game is likely to enter overtime."

"This is bad news for Sporting Lisbon, because they will only play with ten men in extra time. Even if they still have the last substitution spot, the physical depletion of most of their players cannot be reversed."

"The players of Sporting Lisbon played a perfect second half with willpower, but it is impossible for them to play a quality extra time."

"On the contrary, Liverpool has a complete lineup and the players' physical condition is slightly better. Once it enters overtime, UEFA can really send them the championship trophy directly!"
