Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It is Chen Yu who takes the penalty kick. This is a desperate penalty kicker. Since Chen Yu debuted, the success rate of penalty kicks has exceeded 95%, which means that Chen Yu has taken 20 penalty points.  The ball may only miss one free throw. If Chen Yu's foot style is smoother, he may make dozens of consecutive free throws without making a mistake. Will Howard be one-twentieth of those? No Everton player is optimistic about this.  .  After stepping onto the penalty spot, Chen Yu also showed enough confidence that he didn't even take a run-up and just stood one meter away from the penalty spot.  Goalkeeper Howard was very nervous. He walked back and forth on the goal line and opened his arms and waved from time to time.  The commentator at the scene said helplessly: "Originally, when taking a penalty kick, the striker is nervous, but the goalkeeper is relaxed, because it is normal and the fans can accept it if he can't save the penalty kick, and if he saves the penalty kick, he is a hero, so the psychological pressure on the goalkeeper is minimal.  , and it is normal for a forward to score a penalty kick, but if he fails to score, he will definitely be scolded to death. Their pressure is even higher than a single goal, but today it is the other way around. It shows how much pressure Chen Yu puts on the goalkeeper, but  Chen Yu also pushed a little harder today. If he doesn't run up, he will definitely not be able to volley with great force, and Howard will have one less choice to make. " Press!  As the referee Clattenberg's whistle sounded, Chen Yu took a step forward and pushed his right foot towards the lower right corner of the goal. However, when his foot was about to get close to the ball, Chen Yu paused for a very small amount, and then just swung his leg.  The force pushed the ball to the left side of the goal.  Chen Yu was playing psychological warfare. When a player takes a free throw, the goalkeeper does not save when he sees the player's foot hit the ball. That would be too late, and seeing the direction and spin would be of no use, so the goalkeeper is always ahead of the game.  To react, choose left or right or stand still. Compared with seeing the direction clearly and not being able to pounce at all, choosing a direction in advance has at least a 33% accuracy rate. Every goalkeeper can calculate such mathematical problems very clearly.  .  When Chen Yu started to kick, Howard chose to pounce to the right. If Chen Yu hadn't paused, he would have been wrong. But Chen Yu paused to see where he was pounced, and then hit in the opposite direction.  .  Chen Yu¡¯s shot like this is also dangerous, because once Howard chooses not to move, his shot will be easily saved. The force generated by his legs alone is too small to prevent the goalkeeper from catching it.  Chen Yu¡¯s risk-taking was successful, the ball easily rolled into the left side of the goal, and the score became a 1:1 tie.  After scoring the goal, Chen Yu ran to the net, picked up the ball, ran to the visiting team's stand, and threw the ball towards the fans.  At this time, the Liverpool fans were already going crazy. Chen Yu¡¯s throwing the ball was like throwing a handful of salt into the oil pan. The Liverpool fans in the visiting team¡¯s stands were fighting for it and screaming, as if the pot was exploding.  At this time, the Liverpool players also ran to the stands, threw Chen Yu to the ground, and slapped his body to express their joy.  Benitez on the sidelines just made a fist gesture when he scored, saying something, and then he looked calm.  Benitez was very confident in Chen Yu's penalty kick. When he got the penalty kick, he knew it would be scored. He spent the next time thinking about how to play this game with more shots and less shots in order to maximize profits.  , after all, Derby is not a simple three-point game, but there is also a Champions League group match in the middle of the week.  Moyes, who was standing not far from Benitez, had similar thoughts to Benitez. He did not expect Howard to be brave enough to save Chen Yu's ball. He also thought about how to play the next game.  Liverpool equalized the score, and Everton was missing one player. Is this game an offense or a defense? The offense is definitely useless, but the defense may not be able to defend either. This multiple-choice question is simply a torment for Moyes.  When the game restarted, Moyes finally made a decision: no substitutions!  attack!  The fans, reporters and commentators at the scene were shocked when they saw that Moyes did not make a substitution after full-back Hibbert was sent off, and directly continued the game with three defenders. Everton faced an invincible team in the world.  Liverpool, in their hands, actually play a three-back formation. Is Moyes crazy?  The commentator at the scene couldn't help complaining: "I don't know what is going on in Moyes's genius mind. Shouldn't he replace a forward and replace him with a defender at this time? Does he hope to usher in a big game at home?"  A disastrous defeat? It's really hard for mortals to understand the thinking of geniuses." Chinese commentator Duan Xuan understood Moyes's thoughts slightly and said: "It's really weird that Moyes doesn't change players. Maybe Moyes thinks so, sir.  If you lose someone, you will lose anyway. It is better to lose more and maybe win a reputation that is honorable even if you lose." Duan Xuan's statement was not far off, but when the ball kicked off again, Everton turned out to be true.  There was no shrinking back to counterattack, nor was there a big iron barrel formation, but they attacked.    Everton's offense in this situation was beyond Liverpool's expectations. They thought that after being sent off one man, Everton would continue to shrink and fight back to maintain a draw. This is also rational.  Choice, after all, there is a gap in strength between the two teams. After one player is missing, the gap will even widen by two levels. Unexpectedly, Everton attacked them at the kick-off. Liverpool's players were in a hurry and almost succeeded in a sneak attack by Everton.  .  However, the strength gap between the two teams was there. Even if they were not well prepared, Liverpool still defused Everton's surprise attack and quickly stabilized their position and regained the ball.  At this moment, nearly sixty minutes of the game had passed. Only then did Benitez relax. He waved his hands to ask his players to press forward and take the lead as soon as possible. It could not drag on for too long. If it reached eighty minutes,  Benitez estimates that Everton will no longer play against Liverpool and will probably defend to the death. Now he dares not to defend, probably because he cannot defend.  Liverpool's players are stronger than Everton, and they have more players than Everton, but they were suppressed by Everton for almost ten minutes. This made them very depressed. Even if Benitez didn't say it, they would definitely do it.  Call me back, otherwise I won¡¯t be able to save my face.  Liverpool's offense still looks for Chen Yu. The ball is constantly passed to Chen Yu, and others are supporting Chen Yu. With Chen Yu as the core, an offensive area is formed at the front of Everton's penalty area.  Everton's players are helpless against Liverpool's tactic. If Chen Yu is double-teamed, Chen Yu will pass the ball out, and other players in Liverpool will have a one-on-one opportunity. With Liverpool's personal ability, one-on-one.  It is difficult for Fulton's players to defend without fouling, but if they do, Chen Yu, Alonso, and Riise's free kicks are very threatening.  There is no way to do this. Compared with a strong team, a weak team is much different in terms of teamwork and individual ability. It is normal for a weak team to be helpless when fighting, but it is abnormal for a weak team to play smoothly.  In the 63rd minute of the game, Chen Yu passed the ball out under everyone's double-team. Benayoun dribbled the ball into the penalty area and passed it back to Riise. Riese fired an angry shot from twenty yards, and the ball flew past the goal post.  out.  Although this attack failed to break through Everton's gate, it kicked off the climax of Liverpool's attack. Afterwards, Liverpool occupied an absolute advantage on the field. Everton had no choice but to defend, and they were suppressed by Liverpool in their own half.  The ball couldn't pass Liverpool's penalty area.  Liverpool's wings flew together, with Riise and Finnan all pressing to both sides of Everton's penalty area. The offensive formation was wide open, making full use of the width of Goodison Park. At this time, Everton could no longer care about their own sides.  Road, they can only shrink their troops tightly around the penalty area, allowing Liverpool to pass from the wing.  In the 68th minute of the game, Finnan made a pass from the wing. Kuyt headed the ball in the crowd. Chen Yu had his back to the goal and hooked upside down. The ball hit the defender and bounced out of the baseline.  Although the goal was not scored, Chen Yu's extended upside-down golden hook still won the applause of the whole room.  Liverpool took a corner kick, and this time even the two central defenders came to Everton's penalty area to fight for it. Everton's penalty area was overcrowded for a while.  Alonso took a corner kick. There were too many people in the penalty area but he didn't hit it. The ball flew outside the penalty area and was caught by full-back Riise. Riise stopped the ball with his chest and whipped the ball directly towards the goal from a small angle.  At this moment, goalkeeper Howard had followed the ball to the near corner, and Riise's shot was blocked by his fists.  There are still Liverpool players on the wing. Waiting here is Liverpool midfielder Benayoun. Benayoun, who has excellent skills, saw that goalkeeper Howard had reached the goal post. He directly raised his foot and hoisted the ball to the back corner of the goal.  .  Goalkeeper Howard definitely couldn't get back, but Everton had many defensive players in the penalty area. When the ball was about to fall into the goal, Everton's center back Yabo jumped high and pushed the ball out of the penalty area.  At this moment, there were more Liverpool players than Everton players on the outside of the penalty area. Mascherano did not wait for the ball to land and volleyed sideways. Liverpool forward Kuyt, who was standing in the penalty area, did not dodge, and the ball hit him.  The bottom line popped up.  In these few minutes, Everton was out of breath. The surrounding Everton fans were watching in fear. Finally, they had a chance to take a breath. The ball boy picking up the ball next to him knew the ball king. He knew that the current  Everton needed to stabilize. He picked up the ball slowly, as if in slow motion.  With great difficulty, the ball was handed over to goalkeeper Howard, who also took his time to place the ball in the corner of the small penalty area. After putting it away, he picked it up and stepped on the turf, as if the uneven turf would affect his kick-off.  At this time, the Liverpool players protested, believing that Howard should be given a yellow card for delaying the game, but the referee Clattenburg ignored it.  American goalkeeper HowardA very smart goalkeeper, he knew that after the corner kick was taken, most of it would be taken by Liverpool players. He waved his teammates to run to the side, and drove the ball to the side with his big foot.  This is a tricky method. If teammates can get such a ball, it is of course the best. If they can't get it, it may fly out of the baseline. In this way, Liverpool will serve again on the sidelines and consume a few seconds.  Liverpool's players also knew that Everton wanted to break their offensive rhythm. They tried their best to get the ball from the wing, but Howard deliberately didn't want them to get it. The ball was kicked high and floating, and the players from both sides fought for it.  Grabbing it, the ball flew directly out of the sideline.  Liverpool players quickly served the ball from the sideline. After the ball was released, Hyypia drove the ball towards Everton's penalty area and continued to put pressure on Everton's goal.  Of course, such a pass is not a threat, but Liverpool does not hope that such a pass can create a threat. Their purpose is to pass the ball and then attack Everton's goal near the penalty area. As long as the ball is in control  In his own hands, as long as the offense can be sustained, it is only a matter of time before he breaks through Everton's goal.  The ball was pushed out in the penalty area, but there was no suspense. The ball fell to the feet of Liverpool player Pennant again. Pennant dribbled the ball and the ball was intercepted by Everton's player, but Liverpool's  There were also many players. As soon as the ball was intercepted by an Everton player, Chen Yu immediately snatched the ball back.  At this moment, Chen Yu was also very aggressive. He dribbled the ball and buckled directly towards Everton's penalty area.  It may be that the Everton players did not expect that Chen Yu would dare to dribble the ball towards the siege. They did not have time to commit a foul outside the penalty area, and Chen Yu dribbled the ball into the penalty area.  Once a player enters the penalty area, he is safe. No one dares to foul him and can only double-team him.  When Chen Yu broke into the penalty area, the ball stuck to his feet. There were people around him, including those from Everton and Liverpool. Chen Yu had no time to adjust, so he had no way to shoot and could only go to the baseline.  Everton¡¯s players just want to drive Chen Yu towards the bottom line. The deeper Chen Yu goes to the bottom line, the smaller the shooting angle will be, and the easier it will be for them to defend.  However, Chen Yu is indeed a marksman, with skills and courage. When he was about to bring the ball to the baseline, he suddenly pushed the arch of his foot and shot goalkeeper Howard, who was standing in the near corner, between the legs of the goalkeeper.  This shot was not sudden for goalkeeper Howard. He was always standing in the near corner waiting for Chen Yu to shoot, but the distance was too close. No matter how well prepared he was, it was useless. In an emergency, he pinched his legs and the ball was caught.  For a moment, but without clamping, it slowly rolled towards the goal.  It seemed that the ball was hopeless, and there was no one behind Howard, but Howard suddenly had an idea. He sat back and just put the ball under his butt.  Seeing Howard blocking the ball in this magical way, the entire stadium was in an uproar, including the Liverpool fans who couldn't help laughing.  Duan Xuan, the Chinese commentator at the scene, said helplessly: "It's amazing! I only know people who use their butts to score goals, but today I saw people who use their butts to save the ball It's really a stroke of genius, but this is because Chen Yu can't use his strength. If he can  If he exerted force, the ball flew directly through the two doors and flew into the net. At this time, Everton owners Kenwright and Earl in the box couldn't help but laugh after being frightened and stunned. Kenwright said:  "Howard's reaction was world-class.  Earl smiled and said: "He is our American football superstar. If it hadn't been for his brave performance today, we would have fallen behind now. He is not to blame for that goal."  " Kenwright said: "There are not many people in the world who can guard against Chen Yu's penalty kick.  It would be nice to get a draw today.  " In another box, Gillette felt sorry for Chen Yu and praised Howard: "Howard's reaction speed was too fast. Today he is world-class.  " Hicks smiled and said, "Maybe he knows that four American bosses are coming to watch his game today.  " Gillette sighed: "If Howard didn't make stupid mistakes, he would be world-class. I don't know how many times he can block Chen Yu's shots today.  " Hicks said: "I guess it can't be stopped. No one can stop Chen Yu. I hope it's faster and doesn't drag it to the end. It will be hanging at the end.  " Benitez on the sidelines did not smile. He only felt regretful that he failed to score despite such a good opportunity. Howard must be excited next. It is not a good thing for a goalkeeper to be excited. A good goalkeeper is equivalent to half the team. Howard  He is also the kind of excited player who reacts quickly and can save any ball when he goes crazy. Otherwise, Ferguson would not have been chosen to replace French goalkeeper Barthes. Benitez's worries are not unreasonable. Many times the goalkeeper will.  It can also determine the outcome of the game.??If the goalkeeper can save four or five must-goals in a game, the forward's psychology will collapse. At this time, Benitez can only pray that Howard will not be so perverted.  But Benitez soon discovered that his worries had become true. After saving Chen Yu's crotch-piercing shot, Howard went crazy. Then he saved Chen Yu and Kuyt in succession.  , Riise made three threatening shots. The most amazing thing was in the 75th minute, Chen Yu broke into the penalty area and passed back. Benayoun's push shot five meters away from the goal was also blocked by Howard with his legs.  At this moment, Liverpool had the absolute advantage on the field. Everton's defense was riddled with holes, but in the end they were still unable to break through Howard's ten fingers.  In the 77th minute of the game, Riise made a powerful pass from the wing. The ball was fast and spinning. Chen Yu jumped up high and headed into the dead center of the goal less than ten meters away. This was a must-goal for Liverpool.  The fans stood up and applauded, but Howard actually hit the ball with his fingertips and bounced it out.  Seeing this scene, all Evertonians were cheering for Howard. The commentator on the scene also believed that if Everton can maintain a draw today, Howard will become Everton's savior.  Benitez finally couldn't bear it anymore at this time. He replaced two players at once. Forward Crouch replaced defender Hyypia, and forward Wolenin replaced Mascherano, using four forwards for the end.  Give it a try, if he can't score again, he won't have any tricks left.  At this time, Moyes also saw the hope of keeping the tie. He gave up the attack, replaced Anichebe with Baines, and replaced Yakub with McFadden, and started a no-forward strategy.
