Chapter 484 Chasing the Wind
This is Anfield, home of Liverpool.
Irving is familiar with this place, but his teammates are not.
When the deafening cheers sounded from the stands, even Irving felt a little strange.
These cheers do not belong to him.
In the 32nd minute, Garcia made a cross from the right.After receiving the ball, Gao Lao Crouch knocked it to Gerrard who started at a high speed. After breaking through the defense of the two, the captain of the Red Army followed up with a strong shot. The ball flew through Shay's defense and flew into the net.
Seeing Gerrard scoring a goal, for a moment, Owen also wanted to run forward and embrace warmly with his old friends.
When he reacted, he found that he had already put on a black and white jersey.
That Anfield boy no longer belongs to Anfield.
Anfield is loud, what better way to boost morale than the captain's head start?
In the history of the Premier League, Newcastle was once a smash hit.But as a veteran giant, more and more young people have forgotten the glory of the Magpies.
If it weren't for Tang Wu and Xingye's "Fame with One Goal" movie that used Newcastle as the home team, even many small domestic fans would never know that Newcastle was a team that could once rival Manchester United and Liverpool.
In the past few years, the magpie has been working hard to earn four, but has rarely succeeded.
When entering the top four in the league is an extravagant hope, the heritage of this team is also slowly being consumed.
Because of the dissuasion of his friends, Shearer planned to postpone his retirement for one year.
So far, Shearer has scored 199 goals for the Magpies, one short of becoming Newcastle's top scorer.For him with half the season left, this is not a difficult task.
What he has to do now is to thoroughly train Owen, the golden boy of England, into a pillar of Newcastle.
After Keane left Manchester United for the Soviet Super League, Shearer's retirement became a matter of time.
A legend of the old era, there is no stadium that can accommodate him in the new era.
"Michael, don't worry, it's just a ball."
The 35-year-old Shearer wiped the rain from his face, but the 25-year-old Owen's face was full of hesitation.
"Captain, I." Owen lowered his head, wanting to say something, but still didn't know how to express it.
"It's okay, we still have time, we still have a chance."
Looking at the crowded KOP stand, Irving was filled with bitterness.
As the former owner here, he naturally knows how terrible Anfield is as the home of the devil in the Premier League.
Although Liverpool's past league record is not particularly outstanding, the Red Army is recognized as the "king of cup games" and "king of home games".Now that Liverpool is leading by one goal at Anfield, if the Magpies want to equalize or even overtake, it will take at least twice or three times more effort and a little bit of luck.
After falling behind by one goal, the Magpies wanted to increase their offensive, but the Liverpool people did not give their opponents the slightest chance at all.
In the case of the home fans becoming the 12th man, even with a goal lead, the ball has been controlled by the Red Army, looking for Newcastle's gap to attack.
In the 39th minute, Garcia broke through the front of the penalty area and made a free kick. Gerrard shot directly and was saved by Shay.Morientes plugged in for a supplementary shot, and Newcastle defender Bleible blocked it with his foot.
In the 42nd minute, Gerrard made a pass from the left. Garcia chose to volley the goal with no defense in front of the goal. The shot missed the spot of the ball and flew directly out of the baseline without posing a threat.
In the 45th minute, Kewell took a corner kick. Hyypia shook his head from a long distance and hit the goal very powerfully. Unfortunately, the angle was too straight, and Ji Wen firmly held the ball. One minute later, Kewell tried to break through again from the left, and Owen, who returned to the defense in time, resolved the Red Army's attack.
In the second half, they changed sides and fought again, and the coaches of both sides did not make substitutions.
However, just 2 minutes into the game, Liverpool expanded the score again.
Morientes points the ball to the left, and Kewell follows and passes.The three red figures in front of the goal rose higher and higher. In the end, the tall guy Crouch grabbed the highest nod and scored the goal. Shay pounced and the ball slowly rolled towards the goal.Ji Wen, who got up in a hurry, quickly chased back, stretched out his hand to hook, and fished the ball out of the goal line.
But at this time the linesman has ruled that the goal is valid and Liverpool lead 2-0 at home.
The big screen above the head continuously replays the scene of Shay catching the ball. No matter from which angle you look at it, the ball has completely crossed the goal line.
This is an impeccable goal!
After falling behind by two goals, Newcastle finally saw the situation clearly.
In the drizzle, the magpie drew back its wings and gathered its defenses.
The Premier League is a long-term game. If it is not a deadly enemy, there is no need to fight to the death in a league.
Newcastle and Liverpool were only rivals earning four in the past. Now Liverpool's goal is to win the championship, but Newcastle is still obsessed with earning four.The echelons of the two teams are already different, so naturally there is no need to continue fighting.
In the 64th minute, Alan Shearer was replaced and the captain's armband was worn on Owen's shoulder.In Newcastle's frontcourt, only Owen was left alone.
"There is nothing to watch in this game. Since TOM took over Liverpool, he has never been equalized by the opponent when he was behind by two goals!" The KOPs in the stands were in a good mood. The record made them completely relieved.
In this stormy sky, it was difficult for Newcastle's long pass to cross the midfield.Even if it flies by occasionally, it will be caught by Tang Wu who attacks in time.
Tang Wu perfectly interpreted the phrase "life lies in sports". Standing motionless in front of the door in such rain and being drenched for 90 minutes will definitely make you seriously ill after the game.
Time passed by, the head coaches of both sides began to replace the main players to preserve their strength, and all Newcastle players were slowly losing their fighting spirit.
In the 87th minute, when the KOPs stood in a row and sang praises, there was a gust of evil wind on the Anfield stadium.
"Huhuhu~~~"
The wind howled past, and many Liverpool offensive players subconsciously covered their faces.Even Cisse, who had just come on, kept rubbing his eyes because the rain had blown into them.
Taking advantage of the light wind, Alonso wanted to push the ball to his teammate on the wing, but was surprised to find that the ball was no longer under his feet.
"Where's the ball?"
The Spaniard was startled, and quickly turned his head and stretched his feet to reach the ball that was scraped away.But Babayaro, with his back to the wind and rain, stepped forward faster, and rushed forward, rushing between Alonso and the ball.
Alonso reached out subconsciously, trying to grab Babayaro's jersey.However, Babayaro didn't intend to take the ball forward. After getting the ball, he swung his left foot violently with the help of the wind and kicked the ball hard forward.
"Eh?! Alonso made a mistake!"
"Baba Yaro long pass!"
"Carragher"
"Carragher has fallen!"
Amid Zhan Jun's exclamation, Carragher, who miscalculated the wind and rain, jumped hastily, but the ball flew over his head.
"not good!"
Carragher was startled. Before he landed, a black and white figure suddenly rushed to his side.In just an instant, he rushed behind him.
Owen!
The wind is blowing, and the boy chasing the wind is chasing the wind away!
