Football: Banned for life, forced to travel to Europe

Chapter 528 Direct Free Kick

Many people are very puzzled by Mourinho's substitutions. According to their thinking, now that Chelsea is playing one less player, and the game is less than 10 minutes away, there must be a bus in front of the goal, and it will be delayed until overtime or even points. It's common sense for a decisive ball game.

This is the idea of ​​the game. The morale of the players in the game is determined before the game. As long as the morale of the players is all green before the game, even if they fall behind in the game, their morale will not fluctuate too much.

But in a real game, the morale of the players may change several times, or even a dozen times, in each game.

Take this game as an example, they conceded a goal first, Chelsea's morale was low, and they made a wish to equalize the score, and then overtook, and their morale rose again.

Then Oscar was sent off, morale was low again, he conceded an own goal, scored again, and was kicked around for [-] minutes. The morale of the Chelsea players is almost down now.

They are only supported by the inertia brought about by the excellent results in previous games and the spirit of some players.For example, to make a wish, he has now withdrawn to the vicinity of the central circle, frequently harassing the two central defenders of Sevilla.

In the eyes of the fans, it is a good choice to take the bus, but in Mourinho's view, even if it is delayed to overtime, Chelsea's hope of winning is very slim.

The physical strength and morale of the players are both problems. Moreover, Chelsea did not practice penalty kicks at all before the game. Mourinho's winning percentage in the penalty shootout is also extremely low...

The most important point is that if Chelsea drags the bus to a penalty shootout and then loses the game, the blow to the morale of the team will be fatal, and it may affect the next Premier League and Champions League.

That's why Mourinho chose to replace William, trying to rely on the personal abilities of several players in the frontcourt to steal one at the end.

Personal heroism is needed at this time!

Even if Chelsea can't win the game in the end, the loss can be attributed to the lack of one person, at least they died standing up, and the morale of the team can still be stabilized.

Some people may have to ask, isn't losing the six championships a bigger blow to the team?

That's right, but even with the bus, it may not necessarily win the game. Mourinho is going to take a gamble and resolve the battle within 10 minutes.

However, after William came on the field, he did not achieve results in a short period of time. Chelsea still played very passively. He had to take over the task of Cesc Fabregas and continue to defend at the front of the penalty area.

Fortunately, William's tactical execution is relatively strong, and there are no mistakes for the time being.

Of course, Sevilla has nothing to say. They played one more player and their morale is high. They must also want to end the battle within 10 minutes, and they don't want to drag it into overtime.

They continued to attack Chelsea's goal fiercely.

No.807 minutes, the Sevilla player made a series of quick passes at the front of Chelsea's penalty area, creating a chance for Banega to shoot from a long distance.

It's a pity that the football went slightly wide of the goal...

No.809 minutes, Sevilla continued to launch an offensive. When Gameiro turned around and shot in the penalty area, he was interfered by Stones. As a result, the football was higher than the crossbar.

No. In the 90th minute, there was a loophole in Chelsea's defense. Stones rushed forward and was smashed by Immobile. After breaking into the penalty area, the Italian striker made a diagonal pass to the right. The football was hugged by Courtois, which scared all Chelsea fans into a cold sweat.

After that, Sevilla never got a better chance to shoot than this, and Chelsea didn't get the chance to counterattack that Mourinho expected.

When the game reached the stoppage time period, Sevilla was still besieging, but at this time, they also made a mistake.

Sevilla's central defender Kryhoviak suddenly dribbled the ball forward, and Sevilla formed a local numerical advantage, but when he passed the ball, he did not control his footwork well, and he passed the ball and was still retreating. Matic.

Matic froze for a moment, and immediately kicked the ball to the right with a big foot.

Di Maria forcibly took a breath, urged the highest speed, and took the first step to control the ball.

Seeing this, Salah, Wishing and William rushed forward immediately. For them, this may be the last chance to attack in this game.

But Di Maria still had problems with his physical strength. He found that he couldn't pass Sevilla left-back Tremolinas, but his golf quotient was extremely high. The ball swept to the middle, and then Di Maria was also pulled to the ground.

Just as the referee Colum was about to blow his whistle, he saw William, who was full of energy, jump in at high speed and received the ball.

Colum immediately raised his hands horizontally, which is advantageous for the attack!

Rami immediately slowed down. He was the only one left in Sevilla's defense line, and it was meaningless to retreat any further. William, Salah and Wishing three-on-one, no matter how they defended, they couldn't defend.

Lamy already had an idea in his mind. He was optimistic about the position of Wishing and Salah, and he grabbed it instantly when William advanced.

William was about to pass the ball, but Rami was faster, Wishing and Salah were directly in the offside position, now pass the ball, and Chelsea's counterattack is over.

William's reaction was quick, the raised foot did not hit the football, but circled around the football, and then chose to explode, he wanted to pass!

Lamy's reaction was also very fast. Seeing that he might be passed by William, he directly reached out and knocked William down. Anyway, he hadn't entered the penalty area yet, so it was just a free kick.

Sure enough, William couldn't pass the ball, and was blocked for passing, so he had no choice but to fall to the ground.

Colum gave Rami a yellow card and at the same time gave Chelsea a direct free kick from around 30 meters from the goal.

Emery applauded frequently on the sidelines. He was very satisfied with Rami's response. A yellow card blocked Chelsea's counterattack and only gave the opponent a free kick so far. This is the best result.

As long as you defend this free kick, even if you enter overtime, the advantage is still on your side.

Wishing stood in front of the football without hesitation, and the Sevilla players also knew that Wishing had a free kick, so they attached great importance to it. Even at such a long distance, they still formed a wall of six people.

And what about the Chelsea players?

Except for Di Maria, William and Salah who were about to shoot in the penalty area, Van Dijk and Stones had no idea of ​​coming up to compete for the top.

Everyone knows that the wish is to shoot directly, and the two of them will not be able to come back after they go up, and maybe they will leave space for Sevilla to counterattack.

The crisp whistle sounded, and the scene was completely silent.

Everyone has an idea in mind, the goal is scored, Chelsea wins!If the goal is not scored, Sevilla has a high probability of winning the cup.

Everyone is focusing on making a wish, and one can imagine how much pressure there will be on making a wish.

But there was no expression on the wishing face. As usual, he took six steps back calmly, then bent down and began to sprint forward.

One step, two steps, five steps, six steps... The pace of the wishing sprint coincided with his backward pace. In the last step, his left foot was firmly on the left side of the football, and his right foot swung up, straightening the instep Hit the football hard!

bang!

The football soared into the air, carrying grass clippings, and flew towards Sevilla's goal.

The wishing shot was so fast that most fans couldn't see the trajectory of the football, nor did the players.

In Mentor's eyes, it was almost an instant, and football suddenly became bigger from a young age!

He jumped up reflexively and made a save, but the football had already flown into the goal from his side!
