Volume 1: When a Hero Appears, People Pay Attention. Chapter 46: This Is the Merseyside Derby!
Chapter 46 This is the Merseyside Derby! (Second update, please vote for me!)
When Liverpool players did not appear for a long time, both Everton players and fans were speculating about what happened.
There are many guesses, but the one everyone is most willing to guess is this - "Liverpool must have lost because we gave us two goals in the first half and were scolded by Martin O'Neill at halftime." Fighting spirit, passive avoidance, unwilling to participate in the second half of the game!"
In this case, let's just let the referee declare the game to end early, and let Everton win!
Liverpool cowards!
So not long after the start of the second half, the shouts of Everton fans started again. They shouted at the Liverpool players: "You are a group of cowards! You should just stay in the locker room." Never come out again!!"
The shouting was so loud that even fans who didn't go to the scene could hear it clearly through the television broadcast.
But they didn't shout for long because they were soon forced to shut up.
Chen Yingxiong received a pass from his teammates 378 meters away from the goal. Whether it was from the center or the wing, his teammates were all running, but Chen Yingxiong did not raise his head and did not look at his teammates. position, but directly moved the football forward, followed by a powerful long-range shot!
"Hero shot straight away!"
the narrator yelled in surprise.
Amidst the shouts of "You are all cowards", the football drew a straight line in the air, almost without turning at all, and flew towards the goal!
With such a long shot, few people believe it will pose any threat to the goalkeeper.
So Everton fans continued to chant and taunt Liverpool without feeling the slightest concern. Until the football hit the crossbar hard!
There was a "bang" sound!
All the jeers and boos stopped abruptly.
Hitting the football on the crossbar, Chen Yingxiong almost hit the football into the goal! But he didn't look annoyed at all for missing an opportunity. He raised his right hand, raised his index finger, put it to his mouth, and made a "shut up" gesture to the Everton fans!
※※※
"Hero! ... What a danger! I almost went in!" Everton's commentator exclaimed and then let out a sigh of relief.
"Ah! Ah! Hero! Hero! What a pity!" Liverpool's commentator put his head in his hands, looking even more upset than Chen Yingxiong.
"Thirty-eight meters long shot! The hero almost equalized the score for the team! The second half has just begun, and Liverpool created a murderous opportunity! And this is their most threatening shot so far in the game. !”
"Liverpool's performance seems to be different from the first half... What happened during the halftime break? Martin O'Neill came out quickly. I'm afraid this change was not brought about by him..."
The commentators cheered and regretted Chen Yingxiong's stunning long-range shot. If you walk into it, this is a wonderful world!
※※※
When the football hit the beam and bounced out, the hearts of many Everton fans stopped.
They almost meant football was in the goal...
Many people who survived the disaster forgot to continue to boo or curse in response to Chen Yingxiong's provocation. However, they still have a way to make up for it - as long as Chen Yingxiong takes the ball, huge boos will be heard in the stands of Goodison Park.
But in fact, everyone knows that booing is no longer effective for Chen Yingxiong. They are just venting their dissatisfaction and they are so crazy! You are still two goals behind! What's the point of being able to shoot the football over the crossbar other than that you are really unlucky? ! In other words, being able to hit the football on the beam is considered good luck. Then the good luck ran out. Aren't you two goals behind us?
※※※
Liverpool quickly told Everton fans with practical actions whether they were lucky or unlucky...
"Suarez!! He drives in! He gets out of the way... passes! Hero - gooooooooooooal!!!"
With his roar, Chen Yingxiong leaned against Distin in the penalty area. Under Distin's pull, he still stubbornly swept the football into the goal.
"The ball has gone in! The ball has gone in!! The hero has pulled one back for Liverpool!"
"Suarez's breakthrough and the hero's goal attack are in perfect harmony! Now Liverpool is only one goal behind! For Liverpool, this is no longer a queen at all!"
"Chen Yingxiong finally found his shooting boots and changed them during the halftime break. When the hero is normal, Liverpool will have no worries!"
"I'm not surprised at all that the hero will score a goal. Look at his long shot just after the second half... that was a signal!"
After scoring the goal, Chen Yingxiong did not celebrate wantonly. Instead, he got up from the ground, rushed to the goal, got in front of goalkeeper Howard, picked up the football, turned around and ran towards the center circle.
As he ran, he shook his fist at his teammates.
Although there is still a lot of time, Chen Yingxiong wants to tell everyone to equalize the score as soon as possible and then we will counterattack!
This match cannot be understood as simply as an equalizer!
It's the Merseyside derby!
※※※
Everton fans finally felt threatened. The evidence is that when the game restarts, as long as a Liverpool player gets the ball, crazy boos will be heard in the stands of Goodison Park.
To Chen Yingxiong, this was a cry of despair, and he especially liked hearing it.
Because every time you hear such a sound, it means that your opponent is not far away from collapse.
Just push harder, push harder!
So, shush, shush! Because you are just like the grasshoppers after autumn, you can’t jump around for a few days!
※※※
This is the fact. When Liverpool returns to normal and starts to pay attention to its opponents, this Liverpool is really not something Everton can compete with, even at their own home court...
As the game continued, Liverpool completely dominated. Everton could only shrink into half-court and hold on.
Moyes also quickly made adjustments, and the adjustment was to strengthen defense. Everton is currently one goal ahead of Liverpool. As long as it can maintain this lead, Everton will still win.
Of course Liverpool won't let them succeed.
Everton thought that they had shrunk their defense and huddled in the thirty-meter area, and if they did not give Liverpool players enough time and space, Liverpool would be unable to do anything to them.
In a general sense, this strategy and thinking are correct.
But the opponent they faced was Liverpool, and Liverpool had Chen Yingxiong.
Chen Yingxiong is a powerful siege weapon, specially designed to break through dense defenses!
In the 66th minute of the game, Liverpool made a cross from the wing. Originally, the Everton defender could easily clear the ball, but Chen Yingxiong rushed over like a giant bear and stabbed the football away with one kick!
The football he poked happened to fall at the feet of Adam Johnson. Adam Johnson shot directly without any politeness!
His shot was very tricky, and Howard fought hard to save it, but there was nothing he could do to stop the football from flying into the goal...
※※※
"The second one! Liverpool chased two goals in ten minutes! They did it!"
"Beautiful! Adam Johnson! He scored!!"
"It's incredible! Liverpool equalized the score after falling behind by two goals! It only took them ten minutes! Liverpool in the second half was indeed a completely different team compared to the first half!"
"Everton's two-goal lead was wiped out in an instant! What a shame! They fell short!"
Amidst the shouts of the commentator, Adam Johnson was planning to pounce on Chen Yingxiong. Regardless of whether Chen Yingxiong did it intentionally or unintentionally, he stabbed the ball to himself, which was considered an assist.
But when he turned around, he didn't see Chen Yingxiong.
Looking at the goal again, he was shocked - Chen Yingxiong had already rushed to the goal and was chatting with Everton goalkeeper Howard!
The two of them are fighting for the ball!
Howard held the football in his arms and protected the football firmly with both hands. Chen Yingxiong went up and grabbed the football with his hands, trying to steal the football - evening the score did not satisfy him, he wanted to win!
How could Howard defeat Chen Yingxiong?
Seeing that the football in his arms was about to be snatched away by Chen Yingxiong, Distin rushed forward to help. He pushed Chen Yingxiong!
One look at Chen Yingxiong's one-on-one match, he's going to suffer! Adam Johnson didn't care about celebrating the goal and rushed over to help.
Suddenly, players from both sides seemed to be attracted by Chen Yingxiong and the others, rushing up from all directions.
There were loud boos in the stands!
"Oh! There was a conflict between the hero and Everton's goalkeeper Howard... Players from both sides quickly intervened and pushed each other. It seems that the conflict is showing signs of expanding!"
"The hero wanted to serve quickly, and Howard stopped him... It seems that Chen Yingxiong was not satisfied with a draw, although it was a miracle that Liverpool could get a point when they were two goals behind..."
The referee blew his whistle and rushed forward, and the sharp whistle sounded on the court.
During the conflict, someone was injured and fell to the ground - Charlie Adam was pushed to the ground by Distin, and simply covered his face and could not get up.
After the referee intervened, the players from both sides did not continue to use their hands, but instead used their words.
They all pointed at each other's noses and yelled at each other for being despicable and shameless.
"You deliberately delayed the game!"
"It was your people who took action first!"
"Look at Adam! He was pushed down by your people!"
"That was a flop! I definitely didn't touch his face!"
In the chaos, Chen Yingxiong had already squeezed Howard away and grabbed the football in his arms.
Although there is no point in asking for this now...
But if the game is suspended because of this... the time will be counted into injury time. And celebrating a goal won’t waste time... So no matter what, Liverpool still made money this time. The premise is that Chen Yingxiong will not be sent off with a red card. But he didn't hit anyone. According to the usual practice, at most he would get a yellow card.
Sure enough, the referee showed a yellow card to Chen Yingxiong who provoked the trouble, and also showed a yellow card to goalkeeper Howard who tried to deliberately delay the game time, and then to Everton defender Dis who pushed Adam Johnson down. Ting showed a yellow card, which suppressed the emotions of the players on both sides.
The commentator was very excited: "This is the most popular Merseyside Derby in England!" (To be continued)
