Chapter 1253 The horn of counterattack

Naturally, Cech didn't know that Gao Xiaodong was a systematic man. He thought that he was tall and had long arms, and he had thoroughly studied Gao Xiaodong's skills, so it was not a big problem to prevent this free kick.

Cech stood ready and stared at Gao Xiaodong's feet.

Gao Xiaodong ran up to the ball and pumped the inner instep of his right foot toward the lower right side of the ball. The ball flew out like a cannonball.

Cech could clearly see that this was a banana ball, and the shooting position must be in the upper left corner. He moved quickly and flew toward the upper left corner.

As one of the best goalkeepers in the world, Cech judged Gao Xiaodong's shooting footwork and direction very accurately and reacted quickly.

However, Gao Xiaodong's free kick was too fast and the angle was too tricky.

After the ball crossed the wall, it flew into the net close to the angle between the uprights and the crossbar.

Cech tried his best, but he could only watch the ball and sigh.

3:1

Gao Xiaodong won the direct dialogue with Cech and got a goal back for Manchester United.

After scoring the goal, Gao Xiaodong stood proudly on the court, raised his arms and shouted, showing his dominance as the world's number one player.

Cech lay on the ground shaking his head and being speechless. He had tried his best. The only blame was that the ball was too fast and accurate.

"Beautiful" on-site commentator Zola sighed: "This is a perfect arc. The strength and angle are just right. It cannot be played more perfectly."

Ferguson has great confidence in Gao Xiaodong on the sidelines, and he has long been ready to celebrate.

As soon as the ball hit the net, Ferguson ran out with clenched fists and shouted toward the court: "Well done!"

Boas has been nervous

After Gao Xiaodong scored, he ran to the sidelines and shouted at the players: "Shrink your defense and don't give your opponents a chance. The important thing now is not to score goals, but not to concede the ball."

Gao Xiaodong sounded the clarion call for a counterattack. Ferguson, an extremely aggressive old guy, was sure to add fuel to the fire. He immediately made substitution adjustments. The fast little Pea Hernandez came on and replaced Ashe. Li Yang, continue to increase the offense.

Hernandez is fast and flexible. After he came on, he faced Chelsea defender Ivanovic.

Ivanovic is tall and strong. If Chelsea is the attacking side, Hernandez will definitely suffer.

Now that Manchester United controls the ball and dominates the offense, Ivanovic seems too slow and stupid to defend Hernandez.

After Hernandez came on the court, he continued to use his quickness and flexibility to create opportunities for Rooney.

Once Hernandez made a move, Gao Xiaodong moved to distract the defense. Hernandez passed a cross kick to Rooney, who directly missed the goal.

In the 50th minute, Hernandez cut inside and dunked Ivanovic, and played a one-two with Rooney at the front of the penalty area. Rooney entered the penalty area and stabbed.

The angle of Rooney's shot was too small, and Cech stood still. The shot was blocked by Cech.

Hernandez continued to create murderous opportunities, but Villas-Boas did not make substitution adjustments and still chose to trust his starting players.

In the 55th minute of the game, Gao Xiaodong picked up the ball on the left side of the Chelsea penalty area. He saw two players rushing to double-team him and quickly made a long pass across the court to find Hernandez.

When Gao Xiaodong got the ball on the left, Chelsea's formation tilted to the left. Ivanovic was still in the penalty area, which gave Hernandez a lot of space to get the ball.

After Hernandez stopped the ball with his chest, he saw Rooney inserting into the penalty area and quickly crossed to the penalty area to find Rooney.

Ivanovic also saw Rooney's intervention, and he rushed over to grab the passing spot.

Rooney reached half a step ahead and stopped the ball forward. Ivanovic couldn't stop the car and bumped into Rooney, knocking Rooney to the ground.

Referee Weber thought Ivanovic had committed a foul, blew the whistle, and pointed to the penalty spot.

It's okay if Manchester United pulls back a goal. If it pulls another goal back, it will be dangerous.

Ivanovic got up and asked Webber to defend himself, saying that he and Rooney had collided and he had not committed a foul.

Chelsea players also ran to Webber to explain and plead with him.

Weber ignored the Chelsea players' explanation. He firmly signaled the Chelsea players to leave and showed Ivanovic a yellow card.

Villas-Boas on the sidelines was so angry that he rushed into the court and shouted at Webber.

This was an obvious violation. The fourth official and staff hurriedly entered the field and pulled Villas out. Villas was a bit brain-burning and still shouted outside the stadium that this was a wrong decision.

Manchester United's first penalty kicker is Gao Xiaodong.

After Weber awarded the penalty kick, everyone was waiting for Gao Xiaodong to take the penalty kick.

But Gao Xiaodong did not go to the penalty area, but came to Rooney and said: "Wayne, come on."

"Why?" Rooney was caught off guard.

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "You made this penalty kick, I have already scored one."

Of course Rooney also wanted to score at Stamford Bridge. He happily hugged Gao Xiaodong and walked to the penalty spot.

Ferguson on the sidelines looked surprised. He didn't know why Gao Xiaodong gave the penalty kick to Rooney.

In Ferguson's view, now is the time to chase points, and Gao Xiaodong's penalty must be the safest.

At this time, Manchester United's press officer came over and said to Ferguson: "Boss, something has happened."

Ferguson was stunned: "What's going on?"

The press officer said: "During halftime, Rooney gave the Chelsea fans the middle finger and was photographed by reporters."

"This idiot" Ferguson was very angry and would definitely be banned. Rooney has just returned and was suspended, especially at a critical moment in the League and Champions League, which will have a great impact on Manchester United.

In an instant, Ferguson understood Gao Xiaodong's intention of letting Rooney take a penalty kick. This was to relieve Rooney of some pressure.

"People are so irritating." Ferguson shook his head and sighed, feeling even more that appointing Gao Xiaodong as captain was a wise choice.

On the field, Rooney had already completed his run-up, pushed the arch of his right foot, and shot the ball into the upper left corner of the goal.

Cech misjudged the direction and pounced on the right side of the goal, only to watch the ball fly into the net again.

3:2

Rooney used a penalty kick to get another goal back.

After scoring the goal, Rooney ran towards Gao Xiaodong with open arms and hugged Gao Xiaodong tightly.

In just 56 minutes, Manchester United pulled back two goals. The cooked duck is likely to fly away. This is a huge blow to Chelsea fans.

The Stamford Bridge stadium was silent, and the faces of Chelsea fans showed disappointment and uneasiness.

On-site commentator Zola severely criticized Boas: "This goal was Ivanovic's mistake, but Boas did not help Ivanovic when he was in trouble. If Hernandez When he came on the field, Villas-Boas made adjustments and there might not have been a penalty kick."

Villas-Boas may have realized that his response was a little slow. He quickly asked defensive midfielder Romeu to go out to warm up and prepare to adjust the personnel on the field.
