Chapter 90

When Zola's free kick came out, George felt suffocated.As if his heart had stopped, he clenched his fists and looked at the ball nervously.Not only George, but Evan Sawyer, Karl Pater and everyone on the Burnley bench watched nervously.

All the players on the Chelsea bench involuntarily stood on the sidelines and watched Zola's goal.

And the nearly [-] fans in the entire Wembley Stadium held their breath, watching the football flying in the air.

Zola's free kick bypassed the five-person wall consisting of Ballack, Daniel, Klose, Holland and Lennon, and flew towards the dead corner of the goal.

The ball is about to go in?

All the fans watching this game, including fans at Wembley Stadium and fans in front of the TV, did not dare to look away.

"Boom!!!" The football hit the junction of the beam and column.

In the silent Wembley Stadium, this voice is so clear and loud.Everyone heard the voice, and Jasklainin looked at the shaking door frame with lingering fear.

George breathed a sigh of relief for a moment, and touched his heart, which was beating very fast just now.It was so fast that George thought his heart was going to explode, but the sound of "Boom!" was so refreshing.

Unlike the reactions of George and Burnley fans, Chelsea players and fans sighed at the same time.In a stadium as big as Wembley, even the huge sighs of Chelsea fans can be clearly heard.Seeing that the ball didn't go in, Zola hugged her head in annoyance.

"Zola...the ball was very fast, and it went around the wall...Oh! What a pity." Mortensen sighed in the broadcast room.Since Zola came to England, he has left a very good impression in English football.

Zola, who just moved to Chelsea last season, quickly became the darling of Chelsea fans after a period of adaptation.It has also become the most classic transfer among Chelsea.

"The game was not interrupted, Ballack got the ball!" Before Mortensen had time to sigh properly, he concentrated his energy on the court again.

It turned out that everyone was sighing that the ball did not go in, but the game was not interrupted.After the ball was ejected, it came to Ballack's feet.Wise came to grab the ball quickly, but Ballack was strong.Nearly 1.9 meters tall, with a strong body, leaned against Wise.

The physical difference was immediately apparent. After Ballack leaned on Wise, Wise couldn't grab Ballack's ball.Ballack looked up and looked ahead, and then made a long pass to the left.

Almost in the same position Ljungberg and Clarke started at the same time, Steve Clarke is the best right-back in Chelsea's history.But now he is almost 35 years old, and he is not at the same level as Ljungberg in terms of explosive power and speed.

Although started at the same time, Ljungberg's speed is amazing.After just a few steps, Clark was already several meters away.However, Clark can still serve as Chelsea's main right back at his current age, relying on his rich experience.Soon Leboeuf in the middle came to defend Ljungberg and prevent Ljungberg from directly inserting into the penalty area.Because of the sudden counterattack, Klose, the only striker, was still in his penalty area.

At the same time, Clark went to fill the gap in the middle, and Ljungberg saw that Leboeuf was in a stable position.So instead of cutting inside and rushing directly into the penalty area as before, he went outside.When he saw that Camoranesi had already entered the small penalty area, he swayed left and right, and when Leboeuf showed a little gap, he passed directly.

After all, Camoranesi is not Klose. He was flanked by Clark and Le Saux and failed to reach the ball.Although Clark and Le Saux are not central defenders, they cooperate with each other tacitly.Le Saux keeps a close eye on Camoranesi, while Clark jumps to head the ball over.

"Oh, it would be great if it was Klose at this time." Mortensen said regretfully.The headers of Clark and Le Saux are not the best. If it was Klose just now, he might have a chance to hit that ball.

The ball was pushed out by Clark, but the entire center was still very empty.

"Barack! Ballack rushed up!" Several people were trying to grab the ball, and the oncoming Ballack was in the best position.

Seeing Ballack, Ljungberg and Camoranesi reappeared and started running, ready to run out of space.

But at this time, Ballack didn't see anyone else at all, and he didn't think about the situation on the field.Ballack's eyes were only on the kicked football, and Ballack also ran up to meet the ball.

When he was less than two meters away from the football, Ballack stepped hard on his left foot and swung his right foot.Ballack began to tighten his muscles, put all his strength on his right foot, and slammed it hard against the ball.

The ball just pushed out by Clark was volleyed by Ballack, like a cannonball, whistling and flying towards Chelsea's goal.

Clark, who was habitually rushing out to grab the ball, had dilated eyes and felt a gust of wind whizzing past his face.

Including Le Saux at the back, without any reaction, the football flashed past his eyes and flew past.

De Huye was already very depressed in this game, so he has been very focused all the time.When Ballack swung his foot, he was ready to save.When the ball had entered the penalty area, De Houye jumped into the air.

But as the ball whizzed by, a very scary thought came to the experienced De Hooyer's mind.

"Oops……"

As if to confirm De Hooye's terrible idea, before De Hooyer's hands and feet were fully stretched out, the ball had already flown in from De Hooyer's side.

The moment the goal was scored, Wembley Stadium was silent.Even the Burnley fans were stunned, and Ballack, who scored the goal, stood in the middle of the pitch and looked straight at Chelsea's goal.

The professional commentator was the first to respond.

"Barack! Ballack! Wow, man, what a beautiful goal. The ball really went in, the stats came out. 34 meters away, it's a super long-range shot, must be the league of the year Best goal in the Cup."

"John, no. It is definitely one of the most beautiful goals in the history of the League Cup! From a distance of more than 30 meters, Ballack can still shoot such a wonderful shot, definitely..." Alan Hansen was also very excited.Speech is even a little incoherent.

"Barack's future is limitless. This game is perfect and impeccable no matter whether he is defending or counterattacking!"

"John, I have already said that. Ballack will definitely become the core of the German national team in the future."

"Alan, look at Vogts' expression."

"Vogts' goal has been achieved. Ballack performed very well in this game. This ball will definitely take Ballack to France." After Ballack scored, the German national team coach Fogg watched the game Ci clapped with a smile on his face.He was also talking to the assistant coach next to him.

It wasn't until this time that Burnley fans reacted. More than 3 Burnley fans raised their hands high, and cheers like a volcanic eruption filled Wembley Stadium.This goal can be said to be the one that sealed the victory. The game has reached the eighth and 10th minute of the game.

Chelsea almost besieged for 10 minutes without scoring a single goal.Now Burnley leads [-]-[-], which makes the Burnley fans excited.

"Champions, champions! We are champions!!!" Burnley fans couldn't wait to shout the slogan of the championship.

Only at this time did George react.Burnley are now leading two to zero, and George was just about to celebrate when he was hugged from behind by Karl Parter and Evan Sawyer.

"George, we must be champions, we must be champions!" Carl was a little crazy.He even picked up George and turned around a few times on the spot.

Ballack just froze for a moment, then threw off the celebrating teammates and came to George's side.Snatch George straight from Carl and give George a bear hug. "Thank you head!" Ballack, who was still in the German amateur league three years ago, expressed his gratitude to George from the bottom of his heart.

Who would have thought that Ballack would score such a wonderful goal in the final of the England Cup just three years later.

"Michael, you deserve all the applause. Do you know? Vogts is watching your game on the stage! Perform well. I hope to see you in France this summer." George patted higher than himself A head of barak shoulders.

Ballack nodded, Vogts was at Wembley, and Ballack had heard about it at half-time.

"Go ahead, Michael. In 10 minutes, we'll celebrate the championship."

Seeing Ballack running towards George, the Burnley players all stopped.But after Ballack returned to the field, the Burnley players celebrated again.However, the Chelsea players did not interfere, and they are now deeply disappointed.With only 10 minutes left, they really don't have the confidence to move back.

Even Vialli was a little dazed, only Wise was not angry, and he raised his hands to cheer up the Chelsea players.Then complained to the referee that the Burnley players delayed too long.

It was only after the referee's intervention that the Burnley players stopped celebrating.

Leading two to zero, George immediately replaced Klose with Robbie Keane, then Camoranesi with Coyd.George hoarded Barack, Neil Lennon, Holland, and Coyd in the midfield, which can be said to be completely defensive.

Leaving Ljungberg and replacing Robbie Keane is to prepare for a counterattack.In terms of personal ability to fight alone, Ljungberg and Robbie Keane can completely contain Chelsea's defense.

But at this time, Chelsea can't care about those anymore. Anyway, the result of losing two or three is the same.So still don't let go, attack with all your strength.

"Robbie Keane... he outpaced LeBoeuf. De Goueyer hit, Keane picked it up... oops, what a pity... the ball went through the net... but it was for Chelsea too, Borussia Enli is not without the ability to fight back."

Although Robbie Keane didn't score the goal, Chelsea was in a cold sweat.Let Chelsea's offense be a little bit tied, the offense can't go up, and the defense can only lose.

Wembley has become a stage for Burnley fans, and Chelsea fans can only sit there in silence.
