Chapter 220 Sudden Arrival
"We've been watching your wins and we're so proud and we're crying out loud, we love you Leeds! Leeds! Leeds! We've been going forward together, we've shared the ups and downs together, and we'll always be with you till the end Doomsday and the Earth stops spinning!"
Although it was an away game, when the players from both sides entered the field, facing the thunderous singing of the Liverpool fans, the Leeds United fans, represented by the boys from the service gang, sang their own songs without showing any weakness .But at this time, the players on both sides had no time to take care of this scene, because with the referee Ball's whistle, the game officially started!
The FA also attached great importance to this game, as can be seen from the fact that the referee of this game is Ball, one of the most famous referees in the Premier League. He has already started his law enforcement career in 1980 and has been a referee for 20 years, and he was one of the referees when the Premier League was first established.Therefore, the experienced man has not only enforced many international competitions, but also presided over many focus matches in the league. It can be said that if there is no accident, otherwise there will be no mistakes.
But sometimes the development of things is not what people can expect, because there are no mistakes but it does not mean that there are no penalties.In the second minute of the game, the experienced referee Ball directly showed a red card to Leeds United's main defender Woodgate and awarded a penalty kick!At the moment, most of the commentators are still introducing the starting rosters of the two teams to the audience. Even Kenny, who is on the court, never expected such a situation to happen!He only felt that there were only two passes after the opening, and then the referee Ball's whistle sounded.
However, such doubts and puzzles will not last long, because when the entire Anfield was quickly shrouded in a tsunami of boos from Leeds United fans after a short period of silence, the major TV commentators finally returned. God came, and they all expressed their opinions and views on this.And when the TV replays were played repeatedly at this moment, the truth of what happened just now finally came to light.
It turned out that after the start of the game, the Liverpool players took advantage of Leeds United's unstable foothold and suddenly launched a lightning attack. The ball passed by Bamby was passed by Gerrard and then directly found the chasing wind with a long pass. Young Owen!As the most popular candidate for the Golden Globe Award at the moment, Irving demonstrated his strong dominance at the beginning of the game. After catching the ball, he started at full speed. His speed is no less than that of Kenny at the moment, and even faster And nothing less!With just one kick, he passed the out-of-track full-back Hart and broke into the Leeds United penalty area.Faced with such an unexpected situation and the threat of Owen approaching at an extremely fast speed, Woodgate, who was closest to him, had no time to think about it and directly blocked it, and everything that happened after that happened.
You must know that the opening time is only 2 minutes, but Leeds United is already facing such a disadvantage. No one expected such a bad situation before the game, which almost disrupted all of O'Reilly's arrangements.At the same time, the players of Leeds United immediately surrounded the referee Ball after a short period of distraction, and tried to excuse Woodgate. Another central defender, Ferdinand, made referee Ball hesitant the most.
"Sir, if you really want to insist on your penalty, we have no opinion! But, this game is over, you know!" And the other Leeds United players saw Ferdinand said The expression on the referee Boll's face when he said these words also hinted that there was a chance, so he immediately added fuel to the conversation.
"Yes, Mr. Referee, Wood just went for the ball. He didn't intend to hurt Irving at all. This is a situation often seen in professional games!"
"There's nothing wrong with this move, look! Owen's exaggerated performance, what a coward he is!"
At the same time, even the Leeds United coach O'Reilly on the sidelines was furious. While he spread his hands in disbelief, he paced back and forth, and complained to the fourth official while muttering words.
But obviously the Liverpool players are not fools. They immediately put pressure on the referee when they saw this situation. Owen also quickly held the ball and put it on the penalty spot. It is almost impossible to change his penalty. After all, the consequence of doing so is that every penalty he makes throughout the game will attract dissatisfaction from both players, so in the end Ball insisted on his penalty after being slightly loose.
Therefore, in desperation, Woodgate could only walk towards the sidelines angrily and dejectedly. The young man even had tears in his eyes.You must know that since the trial of the beating incident has been held many times, his state has been fluctuating greatly. Although the coach O'Reilly and his teammates have repeatedly supported him, the pressure of public opinion has almost overwhelmed him.Facing the opportunity to prove himself, which was finally obtained, he can only end in such a hasty way and bring such a big disadvantage to the team. How can this make him feel at ease?
However, the Leeds United fans applauded him at the right time at this time, which made him feel a little better.
Seeing this scene, coach O'Reilly could only pat Woodgate on the shoulder to show encouragement after protesting to no avail, but he didn't have time to have a good chat with Wood, because now he has to think about the next thing immediately.
"We saw that referee Ball upheld his original decision after a heated argument, he quickly signaled Woodgate to leave the field, and pointed his finger at the penalty spot again! I think the next Leeds United players should Focus on how to carry out the next game, and not pay too much attention to the result of the penalty kick and penalty.”
"Owen stood on the penalty spot. He will take the penalty kick that he personally caused. Facing the players of the national team, can he complete the fatal blow? The referee Ball blew his whistle, and Owen quickly Run up, hit the goal! All in one go! The goal is in! Liverpool took the lead with a penalty kick at the beginning of the first half, and it was the golden boy Owen who scored the goal! No, maybe we can already call ahead He is Mr. Ballon d'Or! Liverpool's five-time crown last season not only provided him with great help, but during the beginning of this season, Owen's performance also firmly suppressed other strong competitors. !"
