Football’s First Defender

"After the substitution was completed! Torres came out of the penalty area to catch the ball again, directly outside the penalty area, stopped the ball and turned around in one go, completing a long shot!"

"Under the restrictions of Yang Feng in this game, Torres didn't have too many opportunities to hit the goal, and he didn't show the demeanor of Liverpool's top scorer!"

"This kick hit the goal. Although Yang Feng didn't follow up to defend, under the influence of Chelsea's midfielder Essien, Torres only completed an anti-aircraft gun!"

"Cech takes the goal kick! Chelsea start to build!"

"After a slow advance, the Chelsea players took the ball to Liverpool's half, but counting the right back Ivanovic, Chelsea only had 6 players in the half!"

"Chelsea's 3 defenders, plus Essien, the most defensive midfielder, are firmly nailed to their own half, not giving Liverpool any chance to easily counterattack!"

"Ivanovic, receive the ball from Ballack in midfield, hold the ball on the right!"

"Anelka is standing in front of Ivanovic at this time! Anelka suddenly accelerated and slanted into Liverpool's penalty area!"

"Ivanovic understood it and made a direct pass to the front of Anelka's running direction!"

"It's just that Liverpool's central defender Carragher reacted very quickly. He handed Drogba over to Skrtel to defend. He rushed forward directly from the penalty area and took the lead in intercepting the pass!"

"After Carragher unloaded the ball, he passed it directly to Lucas who was nearby. In order to facilitate Lucas' counterattack speed, Carragher deliberately added a little advance!"

"Lucas! It slipped!"

"At the critical moment of the game, when Lucas was rushing forward in his own half, his first step slipped a bit, and he half-kneeled on the ground!"

"Carragher's pass was directly picked up by Ballack!"

"Balack kicked a pass directly into the penalty area, looking for Drogba who was entangled with Skrtel!"

"The ball is not offside!"

Drogba rushed forward to the right side of the penalty area, but due to the strong physical confrontation given by Skrtel, and the pass from Ballack was a bit to the right, and Carragher and Aurelio were all leaning here , after Drogba weighed it, he felt that he didn't have the space to unload the ball to complete the goal!

"Drogba! Without waiting for the ball to hit the ground, he knocked the ball directly behind him with one heel! Anelka is moving laterally from the right!"

"Carragher! Returned smartly, stuck Anelka's position, and blocked the ball first!"

"But then we will face Anelka who rushed to grab the ball!"

"Carragher didn't dare to be careless and passed the ball directly to Lucas who retreated to the penalty area line and was only about 3 meters away from him!"

"Lucas wants to stop the ball!"

"Almost fell again, a stagger!"

"Is the field too slippery? Or is there something wrong with Lucas's physical strength? These two catches are a little unstable? Lucas slipped twice in a row, half kneeling on the turf, almost on his own defense line Playing with fire!"

"Fortunately, when he lost his balance this time, Lucas fell to the ground and used his other foot to pass the ball to Alonso nearby!"

"Alonso took the ball himself, pushed forward and counterattacked!"

Alonso himself has Ballack coming in front of him. Alonso, who feels that the opponent is difficult, does not want the team's rare counterattack opportunity to come to a standstill again! Seeing that Dirk Dirk, who is about 10 meters away from the right, is picking up speed, but there is almost no one in front of him, Alonso dribbled the ball forward for 4 or 5 meters, and directly chose to pass the ball! Want to find Dirk, and give Dirk an early lead in front of the run!

"Alonso pass! Mistake!"

Players are human too, especially for players who have run the whole game, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not make mistakes at the last moment of the game, but Alonso, at this moment, the pass error brought destruction to the team sex blow!

"For this ball, Alonso should have been looking for Dirk on the right, but the line of the ball was passed too deep, and the angle of the ball was too large, and it was passed directly to Ballack's feet!"

"The entire Liverpool formation is counterattacking and moving forward. Suddenly, many Liverpool players are unable to turn around and defend due to inertia!"

When many teams counterattack, they need their full-backs to step forward quickly to open up space for the team, or simply let the full-backs pass from the side!

Especially the full-backs on the weak side, when the strong side has attracted enough defensive players, they must try their best to advance forward and prepare for the transfer of the ball from their teammates!

When Harvey Alonso pushed the counterattack, he was on the left side of Liverpool, so Arbeloa on the right side naturally ran forward quickly according to the tactics!

At the moment when Alonso passed the ball, Arbeloa even ran across the midfield line!

But now, when Ballack blocked Alonso's pass, the entire right wing of Liverpool, because the right back stepped forward, there was a huge gap!

"Balack only took two steps with the ball, and then passed the ball before Alonso ran over and wanted to foul!"

"A pass to the huge gap in Liverpool's right-wing defense, but because Chelsea players are still gathered in the middle, for this ball, Ballack did not choose a through ball deep into the penalty area, but just passed the ball. Stuffed to the right of the restricted area line!"

"Drogba! When Ballack completed the steal, Drogba hurried back from the offside position, and at the same time moved from the center to his left, Liverpool's right-hand side!"

When the Liverpool players saw Drogba receiving the ball, they all signaled offside, but the actual situation is that Drogba saw Liverpool left-back Aurelio in the far left position, dragged to the end, and kept The horizontal Liverpool central defender combination is about 1 meter behind the horizontal distance!

So in the eyes of Skrtel and Carragher, Drogba was indeed behind him just now, but in fact, Drogba was not in an offside position! The linesman is also discerning and has not been interfered by the Liverpool players!

"Drogba received the ball on the penalty area line and dribbled it straight into Liverpool's penalty area!"

"Skrtel and Lucas, who was also nearby, chased after Drogba!"

"Drogba didn't choose to lead the ball to the middle to give the Liverpool players a chance to catch up with the defense. He kept going to the bottom and made moves to pass the ball to the middle!"

"Skrtel saw that Drogba was about to pass the ball directly, and he slid forward directly on Drogba's side, trying to block it. This ball should have the hope of blocking the pass! But Drogba's ball, the previous one The passing action was a fake action. Seeing that Skrtel fell to the ground to block directly, Drogba continued to move forward and successfully avoided Skrtel's tackle. Then, almost unguarded, Got the ball closer to the baseline!"

At this time Chelsea is inside the Liverpool penalty area, Anelka and Lampard are both rushing towards the goal quickly, ready to respond to Drogba's pass, just outflank and hit the goal!

And Carragher is in Anelka, who may be a greater main defensive threat, and Lampard has to be emptied by Carragher and handed over to other teammates to make up the defense! It's just that Lampard's nearest defender is Liverpool left-back Aurelio. Aurelio has just rushed over from Liverpool's left. At this time, there is still a short distance behind Lampard, and he has not caught up with Lampard at all. Duc's plug in speed!

"This ball, Drogba's pass is almost rolling forward against the small penalty area line, before the goal!"

"Anelka, who was at the front, took his defender Carragher and ran to the goal at the moment Drogba passed the ball. The ball was passed directly behind the two of them, and neither of them could catch the ball! "

"But Lampard's movement from behind! Just right!"

"Facing this comfortable pass, Lampard directly pushed and shot! Aurelio was still behind him. When Lampard hit the goal, he didn't form an effective defense at all!"

"Lampard hit the ball from close range to the center. Goalkeeper Reina was still affected by Anelka and Carragher's running position and did not return to his position!"

"GOAL!"

"Goal! Lampard! Lampard, scored the third goal of the game for Chelsea!"

"Chelsea, in the case of two goals behind, directly completed a 3-goal reversal in the second half. The score of this game was rewritten to 3 to 2, and the total score of the two rounds was rewritten to 6 to 3!"

"With just over 10 minutes left in the game, Chelsea led by three goals and almost secured a place in the Champions League semi-finals! Last season in the Champions League final, on a rainy night in Moscow, Chelsea narrowly lost to Manchester United in a penalty shootout. This time , Once again reached the semi-finals of the Champions League, will Chelsea have a chance to enter the final again and hit the Big Ears Cup again?"

"After scoring the goal, Lampard waved to the live broadcast camera. The whole Chelsea team celebrated wildly on the field. They were under too much pressure in the first half, and now the pressure has been taken by the players. They were unleashed, converted to the ecstasy of regaining a huge lead!"

"The fans at the scene, like the players of their home team, are also celebrating with obsession! The blue flag is flying, and the whole Stamford Bridge is full of voices. The home team fans can't wait for the end of the game. They want to celebrate this round in advance. Series win!"

After being reminded by the referee, the Chelsea players slowly ended their goal carnival, and reluctantly walked back to their own half, ready to restart the game!

"If you want to complete a three-goal comeback at Stamford Bridge, it is still within a short ten minutes. Even Liverpool players who are known for their tenacity and tenacity should probably give up at this time!"

"But the Liverpool players are still attacking! They are still trying their best to score goals!"

"Riera has the ball on the left, break through!"

"After Riera replaced Mascherano, Benayoun's position was closer to the center, playing a midfield position, and sometimes even more forward, as a shadow striker behind Torres!"

"And Riera, who is obviously more energetic, continues to attack Chelsea's right back Ivanovic's defense on the left!"

"Ivanovic, who is under defensive pressure in normal games, now looks like he has completed his own defensive tasks well!"

"Ivanovic only needs to stick to it for another 10 minutes, and he can successfully complete the task assigned to him by the head coach!"

"Riera's breakthrough from the left this time opened up the space for passing the ball, but the pass from the side did not pose enough threat to Chelsea! Yang Feng, who was in the penalty area, accurately judged the landing point. In Torres' aerial fight, beat Torres and head the ball over Chelsea's players outside the penalty area!"

"Chelsea's chance to fight back!"

"Essien! This time he dribbled the ball forward!"

"Liverpool players, switch to defensive mode directly in the frontcourt, Bayonne is the first one who wants to stop Essien!"

"But Essien used his body to resist directly and move on!"

"It's just that in the confrontation with Bayonne just now, Essien was still affected a little bit, and Essien failed to get up to full speed for this ball!"

"Facing Harvey Alonso who stood in front of him again, Essien did not choose to be reckless, but gave the ball to Ivanovic on his right!"

"And Ivanovic was in a relatively open position, had plenty of time to adjust, and passed the ball long to Drogba at the front!"

"Facing Drogba's high ball again, Carragher once again lost a little in the physical confrontation, and finally lost a foul!"

"Another excellent free kick opportunity in front of the penalty area. At the last moment of the game, Liverpool became more and more reckless on the defensive end due to the score being too far behind!"

"This time, Chelsea let Ballack take the free kick!"

"There are too many free kick players in the Chelsea team. Almost everyone got a chance to show their free kick skills in this game!"

"Now, it is Ballack who played well on the defensive end of this game, but on the offensive end, his personal offense is somewhat unsatisfactory. Can he use this free kick to complete his goal in this game?"

"Run-up! Hit the door!"

"Barack slammed the door hard!"

"It's a flat ball! But it's powerful and fast!"

"After flying over the human wall, there was a slight drop. Although the drop was not large, it was enough to ensure that this kick would not be higher than the beam!"

"It's just! It's a pity! The height of this free kick directly hitting the goal is well controlled, but in terms of angle, it's still a little bit worse!"

"A little bit to the right, the ball flew directly out of the baseline, and the distance to the right post of the goal may be less than 20 centimeters!"

"Reina just faced this extremely fast kick. In fact, he has given up resistance. It's just that Ballack doesn't seem to have the luck to score today!"

With Ballack's goal kick, the live game time has reached 80 minutes, entering the last 10 minutes of regular time. For Liverpool, they may only taste the bitter fruit of failure in the away game!
