Chapter 301 The Second Goal!
When the game between the two teams is intense, as long as you don't pay close attention to a player, it is difficult to see his absence.

That's what Frank Lampard is.

In the match between Chelsea and Liverpool, Lampard is one of the most concerned players, because he is the midfielder of Chelsea, who is responsible for organizing the offense in the middle, and is also the player who is facing Liverpool's core Steven Gerrard. One of the team's main midfielders.

Such an important player will almost certainly be focused on.

But when the game is intense and the cameras are chasing the football, unless there are special circumstances, a midfielder will not receive much attention. There is another reason for Lampard's lack of attention-he has very few touches on the ball.

Since the second half, Lampard has not touched the ball a few times. If Chelsea support the media to explain, they will definitely say that Lampard is not the core player of offense. He has important defensive tasks and touches the ball very few times in offense normal.

But it is not the case.

Anyone who knows Chelsea can see that Lampard's problem is that his running and positioning are a bit too forward.

Whenever Chelsea launches an attack, Lampard will always stand very forward. His tactical theoretical position is on par with Makelele, but every time he has to be 20 meters in front of Makelele, which is equivalent to a full-back attack When the football is in the Liverpool half, his position can even be said to be a striker.

This also made it difficult for teammates to cooperate with Lampard.

In the No.601 minute of the game, the British BBC broadcast commentator noticed Lampard from the screen. It was because Lampard was on the wing and when he did not receive a pass from Robben, he yelled at Robben angrily. Suddenly, the anxious and fierce expression was reflected on the TV screen, and the commentator couldn't help mentioning, "From the second half until now, Lampard hasn't touched the ball much, and his position is a little bit off. Maybe I was too anxious."

----

Lampard wasn't just impatient, and he wasn't just eager to get up front and help Chelsea score.

His problem is physical.

At this time, Lampard was running backwards. He was not running fast. If you pay attention carefully, you can still see the corners of his mouth raised in discomfort.

Lampard was a little annoyed.

At the end of the first half, when he retreated to defend, he sprained his ankle while running.

At that time, he didn't think much of it. During the halftime break, there was no big problem with the inspection. In order not to affect his participation in the game, he didn't even tell the team doctor, only thinking that he could persevere until the end.

But after the start of the second half, the continuous running made the injured ankle more painful.

Lampard knows what that means.

he got hurt.

Although the injury is not serious, it is possible to aggravate the injury if you can continue to participate in the competition.

But how could he quit halfway? !

Among the entire Chelsea team, Lampard is the player who is most looking forward to the team winning the Champions League.

Although Lampard did not come from Chelsea's youth training, but more than four seasons of effectiveness have made him deeply in love with this team. Currently, in Chelsea's main lineup, only captain John Terry, who was born in Chelsea's youth training Oldest than his qualifications.

In many, many fans, as well as in his own heart, he has been labeled as Chelsea, and he is a complete Chelsea man.

When facing the Champions League final, Lampard was very excited and looking forward to the game, but he still couldn't control his excitement when he was on the field. He knew he should keep calm, and his performance in the first half was not bad. But after an ankle injury, he couldn't keep his composure.

Chelsea are one goal behind!
Lampard knows the team too well, and he is also aware of his importance to the team. Knowing that he is off the field now means that it will be difficult for Chelsea to beat Liverpool in the next game.

So he just kept at it.

When the pain in the ankle became more apparent, the more he hoped to help Chelsea score.

As long as Chelsea can score a goal, he can walk off the field without worrying too much.

Lampard is more anxious than any Chelsea player.

He knew there was not much time left.

Most people didn't notice Lampard's abnormality, including Chelsea's teammates and coach Mourinho, so Lampard could stay on the field, but as time passed, Lampard was eager to help The mentality of the team's goals has affected his personal performance and also affected the entire team.

At the beginning of the second half, after Chelsea suppressed Liverpool for a while, the game soon became stalemate again.

From No. 60 minutes to No. 605 minutes, Liverpool once countered and came back, attacking around Chelsea's half for a long time. Chelsea players were secretly anxious, but they counterattacked twice in a row, but they failed to create a threat, and Liverpool played smoothly. , The players cooperate with each other very skillfully, making Chelsea's defense full of crises.

The fence in front of the stands on the east side of the stadium.

Peter Kenyon observed Lampard for a long time, he turned his head in doubt and said, "There is something wrong with Frank, is he injured?"

Shen Yang shrugged, "I just think he's not in good shape."

He didn't answer directly, which was a bit sensational, but he could clearly see Lampard's situation by using the "supernatural power: eye of heaven" brought by the "SPT Doctor Sports Expert" system——
Character: Frank Lampard

Health Status: 79 (81)

Evaluation: A very strong human being, whose health has declined due to minimal trauma to the ankle.

Lampard has an ankle injury!
Peter Kenyon was still not sure that Lampard was injured. He only guessed through observation, but Shen Yang had the exact answer. He also passed the information to Benitez's ears through the intercom.

Although Shen Yang was not on the field, Liverpool still had electronic equipment that allowed the assistant coach off the field to transmit some information. Benitez was surprised to receive the news.

"Lampard injured?"

Benitez looked at Sammy Lee in surprise, wanting him to make sure it was true.

Sammy Lee was very surprised.

He didn't know why Benitez said so suddenly, "Injured? Shouldn't he? If he's injured, why doesn't he end?"

"Shen said it."

"Shen?"

Sammy Lee frowned. He wasn't sure if the news was accurate, but since the young Chinese said so, there must be some basis for it.

Benitez did not make any instructions or adjustments, but in the following time, he began to observe Lampard seriously.

Peter Kenyon didn't know what Shen Yang was doing, but if his guess was correct, it would be very bad news for Chelsea, but thinking of the Portuguese, he felt that there was no need to pass the news on, and Lampard didn't end, Maybe there are his own reasons. In addition, it is very important that Lampard is too important to Chelsea.

Now that Chelsea is one goal behind, if Lampard is off the field, it will be even more difficult to tie the score.

But it didn't take long for Peter Kenyon to regret it.

----

Benitez is a very competent coach, his ability is beyond doubt.

When he got the news from Shen Yang, he began to observe Lampard carefully, and within 3 minutes, he made a decision-although he could not confirm whether Lampard was injured, it was obvious that Lampard was not in good condition of.

Then it's pretty obvious what to do next.

Taking advantage of a throw-in opportunity, Benitez called Gerrard, "Steven, pay attention to Lampard's points, and find a breakthrough from him if you have the opportunity."

"Frack?"

Gerald was very surprised.

Among Chinese fans, Gerrard and Lampard are called England's "double virtues". They have equal status in the England team. Although they don't play for the same team, they have a very good personal relationship and have always been rivals. , are also very familiar with each other.

Gerrard is very aware of Lampard's strength.

Normally speaking, looking for a breakthrough from Lampard is definitely a very bad choice, because Lampard's defensive ability is too strong, his body is very strong, and his defensive skills are quite good. The average player wants to shake Lampard away. Germany is very difficult, coupled with Chelsea's strong midfield ability, Lampard can calmly cooperate with his teammates to block the attacking player's route, making defense more difficult.

"Are you sure?" Gerald asked.

"Of course." Benitez said, "Do as I tell you."

"Okay, I'll try."

After returning to the game, Gerrard was still a little puzzled and didn't understand why the coach asked to play against Lampard's points, but Gerrard still trusted Benitez very much.

When receiving the pass again, Gerrard deliberately looked at Lampard's position. In fact, he didn't need to pay close attention. Lampard has always paid attention to the defense of Gerrard. The confrontation between the two has always been a lot. Most of the time, Lampard intends to block Gerrard's point and prevent him from receiving the pass easily. However, from the game to now, there is very little confrontation between one side with the ball. When the two encounter defense, most of them will choose to pass. Pass the ball to a teammate.

This time is different.

Lampard also thought that Gerrard would pass the ball, so he didn't care, but tentatively pasted it, forcing Gerrard to pass the ball, but Gerrard didn't pass the ball, but continued to move forward.

Lampard immediately rushed to stop it.

Gerrard protected the ball and continued to move forward. He noticed Lampard's movement, as if facing other opponents, he still focused on controlling the ball at his feet.

The moment he got close, Lampard felt a pain in his ankle. This pain did not affect his big movements, but it still made his steps messy.

Gerrard is very experienced, saw this opportunity, and rushed forward immediately.

It's too late for Lampard to catch up!
"Gerrard! Gerrard! He broke through Lampard! In this double-due confrontation, Gerrard won again!"

This is the second time Gerrard has broken through Lampard.

Once in the first half, Gerrard threw off Lampard's defense, and now there is another time, the commentators from all walks of life are excited about it, and the Liverpool fans have shouted.

With the loud shouts of the fans, Gerrard continued to rush forward with the ball. About 15 meters away from the penalty area, he passed the ball to Smicer. Captain John Terry blocked and Liverpool missed their chance.

A failed attack is no big deal, and soon as Chelsea's counterattack ended, Liverpool regrouped, and a second wave of offensive came again.

This time Gerrard faced Lampard again.

The breakthrough just now made Gerrard feel very puzzled. He didn't think Lampard should make such a mistake, but that was the fact, and he didn't think much about it.

Now Gerrard wants to try again.

Lampard stuck to it, he stared carefully at the ball under Gerrard's feet, and this time Gerrard didn't continue to engage in a psychological confrontation with Lampard, he was just turned around to protect the ball, and then suddenly turned forward, With a strong explosive power, he intends to shake off Lampard.

When facing the world's top midfielder like Lampard, this kind of action is difficult to achieve the desired effect, and it can only take a few steps forward, and the opponent will hardly be thrown away.

Gerrard also just wanted to find a passing space.

But he didn't expect that Lampard's movement was half a beat slow. As soon as he rushed up, Lampard was pulled away. When he wanted to pass the ball, he realized that Lampard hadn't kept up. .

"what happened?"

Gerrard felt baffled, Lampard didn't catch up, and he didn't need to pass the ball anymore, the position of his teammates was not as good as him.

A lot of other people took notice too, wondering at Lampard's poor form.

On the coaching bench of Chelsea, Mourinho frowned. Lampard was passed by just now, and he only regarded it as an accident. After all, it is impossible for any player not to make mistakes.

What about this time?

Benitez laughed.

"Lampard must be injured." He said to Sami Lee without turning his head, "Otherwise he would not have been thrown away so easily."

"Yeah, Lampard's performance is a bit strange. But this is a good opportunity!"

Sammy Lee got a little excited.

All the Liverpool fans cheered after Gerrard's run
!

A football game is a team of 22 and [-] players.

One person seems to have little power, but in fact, in professional football and the gap between the two sides is not big, one person's role is quite large, just like a team that has been sent off, it is difficult to defeat the opponent. Without one person, there is a loophole in the tactical framework, and it is easy for the opponent to seize the opportunity.

Lampard wasn't sent off, but it was the same for him being dangled.

When Lampard's point does not play a role, Makelele will go to make up, and other Chelsea players will go to make up Makelele's position. Once the defensive frame is missing a link, it will play a chain role. Chelsea's defense will immediately It became flustered, and the whole front was full of mistakes and omissions.

Gerrard took his chance!

When Makelele came from one side, Gerrard immediately passed the ball to Riise, who kicked the ball towards the front of the penalty area.

Smicer, who had been defended by Makelele before, ran out of space, and it was too late for Terry to step forward to defend.

Smicer gets rid of the ball and volleys directly!

"Oh!"

After a muffled sound, the football rushed to the goal against Terry's legs and the turf.

Goalkeeper Petr Cech has been paying attention, but Smicer's shooting angle is too tricky. When he reacts, it is too late to save, and he can only watch the football fly into the goal.
