The strongest winger

Chapter 540 A dragon?

Although he failed to head the ball into the goal, Ai Luo did not feel regretful. It is normal for the ball to be pushed out of the post in a football game, because it is impossible to score every attack, otherwise the football game would have to score the basketball game.

Aiello's header was a wake-up call for Liverpool's defense.

Facts have proved that Liverpool's defense line cannot withstand the repeated devastation of Chelsea's offensive line. Neither Arbeloa on the wing nor Carragher or Agger in the center can resist the attacks of Drogba and Aiello.

Especially when Ai Luo flooded into the penalty area, neither Carragher nor Agger dared to get too close to Ai Luo, because his starting speed was too fast, but if he was not close, their anticipation and bounce were not as good as Ai Luo, so the defense in the penalty area was quite passive.

As the game progressed, Benitez changed his game strategy and began to strengthen his offense.

At the same time, Arbeloa is also allowed to participate in the offense, but the premise is that he must be able to defend in place, otherwise he should not participate in the offense. The destructive power caused by Ailuo's speed and technology in counterattacks is no joke.

Sure enough, it turns out that only offense is suitable for Liverpool, who play at home.

In the 16th minute, Gerrard pretended to pass a long pass about 30 meters away from Chelsea's goal in the middle to find Arbeloa who was plugging in at high speed from the right. In the end, he used the change in his ankle to suddenly pass directly to the gap between Makelele and Mikel, consciously hitting Ben Haim's side.

The experienced Torres made a fake move forward to catch the ball. While Ben Haim was tricked forward, he suddenly turned around with the football, and took advantage of his quick start to get stuck in front of Ben Haim, and then shot the ball from 11 yards in front of the goal.

The football hits the inside of the far post and rolls into the net.

A burst of suffocating cheers erupted at the scene, resounding throughout the entire Anfield stadium.

Torres, with long hair fluttering, smiled and pointed to Gerrard who gave him a key assist. The two met on the penalty area line, and then Gerrard jumped up excitedly. Torres knowingly supported Gerrard's hips with both hands.

Rarely, Benitez raised his arms and shouted from the sidelines!

He knew that it was the right choice not to play Mascherano in this game!

※※※

For this conceded goal, Mourinho was very annoyed. Originally, individual defensive ability was Ben Haim's strong point. In the situation just now, he should stick close to Torres, instead of suddenly being distracted halfway through.

In the final analysis, it was Ben Haim who had just arrived and was out of tune with the team's overall defense.

In other words, the ability has not yet reached the level of playing for the giants.

What Ben Haim didn't know was that his defensive performance just now had left a bad impression in Mourinho's mind.

If the ball is lost in the backcourt, the players in the frontcourt will be responsible for recovering it. For the second time since the start, Ai Luo stood at the kick-off in the middle circle. He felt a little uncomfortable, but it was not because of his displeasure with the defense, but because of the burst of laughter from the stands.

As if mocking him.

The game restarted, and the loud boos from the fans in the stands had long been forgotten by Ai Luo. The game investment of up to 99 allowed him to devote 100% of his attention after the referee whistled.

The home fans in the stands were full of enthusiasm, and the Liverpool players on the field were also very excited. A goal lead reduced their pressure a lot.

Chelsea took advantage of the kick-off to quickly attack the center of Liverpool's half.

Due to the dense defensive personnel on the right side of Liverpool, Lampard passed the ball to the right side, that is, to the side of French international Malouda. He adopted a cross from the side to create a crisis.

Temporarily resolve the danger.

In the next few minutes, the two sides exchanged offense and defense, but there was no actual threat.

The game time came to 10 minutes in the blink of an eye.

This time it was still Chelsea who had the ball. Lampard took the ball in the middle to observe the two wings. Obviously, there were too many people on the defensive side of Aiello. The distance between Riise and Arbeloa was kept very good. Passing to the left was not a good choice, but Malouda on the right had also been watched by Finnan.

Mourinho shook his head. The addition of Aiello has indeed improved his offensive ability to a higher level, but at the same time it has weakened his organizational offensive ability in the middle. Lampard's dispatching and long-passing abilities are good, but his advantage lies in the forward pass.

Needless to say, Makelele is a top blue-collar masterpiece.

As for Mikel, his consciousness is indeed good, but his ability needs to be strengthened. The occasional through pass is quite threatening, but he is also not a playmaker.

Joe Cole, an organizational player, is a good choice, but his physical condition is not outstanding, and he is a bit different from the muscular macho emphasized by Mourinho, so Aimar, who moved to Chelsea last season, is not reused.

After all, it is still easy to get hurt.

It seems that before the end of the summer transfer window, it is urgent to sign a midfielder who can organize offense and assist defense, otherwise it will be troublesome to wait until the Champions League.

※※※

Aiello felt that standing on the left side was not an option. This would not only hinder the full-back Ashley Cole's set-up, but also affect the team's overall offense. So he made eye contact with Ashley Cole, and then there was a small exchange of positions between the two.

At the same time, Makelele's position is slightly inclined to the left, which can prevent Liverpool from making up for Ashley Cole in the first place when they counterattack.

Attack protects the ball, defense protects space.

This is what a top defensive midfielder should do.

Ashley Cole's move forward made Arbeloa's position slightly retracted, so that the position between him and Riise was extended to about five meters. He was afraid that Lampard would suddenly pass a long pass behind him.

Arbeloa's speed is simply not as fast as Ashley Cole's sprinting speed. In addition, one of the two is sprinting forward, while the other starts to accelerate on the spot. That is to say, if Lampard hits a long pass behind him, Arbeloa will have one more start time, so Ashley Cole must recover when he is on the wing.

Now that Aiello has given up the left to Ashley Cole, he will only stop when he is close to the parallel position of Lampard.

At the same time, Lampard passed the ball over, then pulled away laterally, pretending to respond to Aiello and taking the defender Xavi Alonso away.

This is the space Chelsea have created for Aiello's personal breakthrough.

※※※

According to Benitez's arrangement before the game, as long as Ai Luo leaves the goal within 30 meters, Riise can choose to follow or not. Since Ai Luo's running route in the first half hour was useless, he did not choose to follow.

It wasn't until Ai Luo got the football that he hesitated a little, and ran up to defend Ai Luo in a high position.

At the same time, Lampard and Ashley Cole moved to Aiello's left and right front respectively, creating space for Aiello to break through.

So there was a small space behind Riise.

Ai Luo took the ball forward and started to move about two meters away from Riise. His left shoulder sank, and at the same time, his left foot quickly slid across the football, as if he wanted to force a breakthrough from the left, but Riise did not take this fake move, but chose to step back in small steps.

At this moment, Ai Luo's right foot pulled the ball to the left, and his left foot also took a big step forward. In addition, the upper body tilted greatly, which made Riise's body subconsciously move to the right side of the body.

"Beautiful upper body swaying, suddenly stop and change direction!" Watching Ai Luo in the camera trick Riise to move, then his body froze, his right ankle flexibly turned, and the outer instep slammed the ball to the right. Andy Gray immediately shouted for Ai Luo's wonderful breakthrough.

Riise kicked his right foot, trying to forcibly turn around and catch up with Ai Luo, but it was too late, so he could only choose to foul.

Because under normal circumstances, the referee will not give cards for fouls in this position.

But he overestimated his second reaction.

When Ai Luo pushed the ball to the right, he thought that Riise would be dying, so after the ball was thrown, he jumped up and just avoided Riise's tackle, and then the outer instep of his right foot slammed the ball into the open space in front of him.

Xavi Alonso was man-marking Lampard, so it was up to captain Steven Gerrard to step forward and defend.

After Ai Luo passed Riise, he encountered Gerald.

Gerrard pressed his elbows tightly to his upper body during the run, and he was going to show Aiello what a Premier League confrontation is! !

His height is 1M and his weight is 86KG.

Although Ai Luo's height is not much different from his, but the weight is only 76KG, that is to say, the weight difference between the two sides is 6KG. In addition, Gerrard has been in the Premier League all year round, so he is very accurate in the strength of the collision. Moreover, the Premier League emphasizes physical confrontation. When the elbow is retracted, the referee will not blow the whistle when players collide with each other.

"Ai Luo is going to fight Gerrard one-on-one!" Zhan Jun's voice obviously involved his personal emotions.

Gerrard, who was ready to collide, ignored the most crucial point.

That is, Ai Luo will look for changes on his own...Suddenly accelerate!
He added more force to the kick he had kicked before, and then his body swayed to the left. This change made all of Gerrard's previous guesses useless. At the same time, he lost his center of gravity because of his excessive force. His left hand subconsciously wanted to pull Ai Luo's jersey, but he only caught a ball of air, and then fell on the turf.

There was a clear burst of laughter from the Blues fans in the stands, but it was quickly covered up by boos from the home fans.

When Ai Luo suddenly accelerated past Gerrard, he was only 25 meters away from the goal. He thought about shooting directly from a long distance, but thought of the talent of a long-range shooting master who only increased his shooting rate by 10%, so he gave up, because the closer to the goal, the greater the threat.

Drogba moved forward alertly, Danish international Agger followed up, and the other central defender Carragher could only move forward passively, because the two central midfielders were not in his defensive position, so he had to step up and hold his position.

Facing Carragher who was rushing forward, Ai Luo directly used the action of stepping on the bicycle quickly to knock him to the ground, and then pushed the ball forward with the outer instep of his right foot, stepping into the top line of the penalty area.

Lineker, who was a special guest commentator for the BBC, exclaimed fiercely: "Is there going to be a dragon?"
