Chapter 222 The Intercepted Counterattack
Under the watchful eyes of all the fans, Fowler hesitated for a moment and did not choose to pass the ball, but continued to rush forward. With a strong right foot, he broke into the penalty area of Leeds United.
Seeing this scene, Owen, who had already run out of space, looked at his current partner and former idol in disbelief. While gradually slowing down, he spread his hands and pointed to the open space in front of him, signaling that he has good opportunity.At this time, Owen couldn't understand why Fowler was unwilling to pass the ball to himself. Since his debut in Liverpool, Fowler, who became famous before him, has always played the role of a mentor and helpful friend, which also made him feel uncomfortable with this scene. It is completely incomprehensible, because this position has no chance for Fowler!
But what Owen doesn’t know is that every family has hard-to-read scriptures. God Fowler, who still seems to be sought after by fans, has gradually lost the trust of coach Houllier. How long can Houllier, a counter-attacking forward, continue to use Fowler. After all, Houllier has always given people a strong side since he took over Liverpool.What is the love of fans under such circumstances?
So under the amazed eyes of the commentators and fans, Fowler faced Ferdinand's defense and continued to break through unsuccessfully. After failing to break through, Fowler shot the ball straight to the left of the goal.Although the shot was indeed beautiful, this time it failed to break through the goal guarded by Martin and missed an excellent chance to score again.
"Oh, a wonderful attempt! A beautiful rubbing shot! It's a pity that Neil Martin made a hard pounce and knocked the ball into the air, disintegrating Liverpool's attack!"
"Unfortunately, if this goal is scored, then Liverpool will have a great advantage in the first half. You must know that with a two-goal advantage, it will be even more difficult for Leeds United to regain the situation. Already!"
"Through the slow-motion replay, we can see that before Fowler's second breakthrough, Owen, the teammate on the other side, has already run out of space with his own speed! And Fowler also saw this scene, but he did not choose to pass the ball! This Not a good decision!"
While the commentators on the commentary booth were still commenting on the ball, the Leeds United players seized this opportunity and set off a wave of counterattacks. Mateo grabbed the ball saved by Martin and passed it To Bowyer in front of him.After a few attacks before, the Leeds United had discovered Liverpool's offensive and defensive focus at this time, so Bowyer directly chose to interpolate towards the middle in an attempt to avoid Liverpool on a diagonal line discharged by Houllier. A midfielder, but this time he kicked right on the iron plate.
Because standing in front of him is Nick Bumby, a player who transferred to Liverpool for 2000 million pounds in 600, and this Nick Bumby is not a simple character. He is not only the first player to join Liverpool since 1959. The Everton player of the rival Liverpool is even more famous for his tough defense and midfield interception ability.Facing Bowyer's interpolation dribble, Bambi rushed up quickly, and this move showed the momentum of thunder. For a while, Bowyer felt the great danger, so he didn't dare to trust Bowyer Immediately distributed the ball to Duckett.
However, the moment Duckett took the ball, several Liverpool players moved at the same time. Duckett, who had just stabilized the ball, shrank his eyes when he saw this scene. He knew he was in trouble.It turns out that not only Leeds United, but their opponent Liverpool is certainly not a fool. They know very well that the core player in the Leeds United team is Duckett in front of them. Scattered around Dakot waiting for this moment.
"Leeds United midfielder Dacourt was caught in a double team, incredible this player showed his excellent individual ability at the moment, he passed Murphy and Gerrard left and right! It was a wonderful small area. Personal show!"
"If one more player is passed by Dacourt, then Liverpool's midfield defense will be useless! This will be a fatal blow to Houllier's prestige and tactical system! You must know that at the beginning of Houllier's entry into Liverpool They completely abandoned the traditional Red Army style of play based on possession of the ball, and replaced it with more sturdy defensive midfielders to strengthen midfield interceptions and then quickly counterattack with direct passes."
"Both the titan Bambi and the second-timer Daniel Murphy were all summoned by Houllier against all odds, but none of them can stop Ducket's advance at this moment! ?Jamie Redknapp, the former favorite of Liverpool, stood up brazenly at this time, he uprooted Dacourt and prevented Leeds United from counterattack! But this move naturally caused Out of the anger of the Leeds United players, Bowyer rushed up and pushed Redknapp away! Obviously he was already angry in his heart!"
"But what is shocking is that Bowyer's move intensified the Liverpool players. Gerrard and other young teammates were also not to be outdone. For a while, the two sides fell into pushing and shoving! This is not a good sign!"
"Duckett looks very painful. It seems that he should be seriously injured! From Gerrard's chattering words, we can guess that he is signaling to the referee that Duckett is diving! But from Judging from Dacourt’s performance in the past, he is a typical tough guy in the Premier League. Such a situation should not happen! Ah? Ferdinand! He should learn to control himself. The current core of Leeds United’s defense should not be so fierce You must know that Leeds United has one less player now!"
As the commentator said, while Gerrard was still chattering on the field, Ferdinand suddenly rushed up and grabbed Gerrard by the collar and shouted at him angrily: "You Damn Liverpool boy, see clearly, Olivier is a real warrior, not vulnerable like you, far from being a man!"
At this time, other Liverpool players who were surrounding the referee Poll and kept explaining also discovered the situation and they rushed up immediately, but just when the conflict was about to intensify further, the referee Pole made a decision immediately at this moment.He first blew the whistle in his mouth and gave Redknapp a yellow card, then turned around to separate the emotional Ferdinand from Gerrard and gave Ferdinand a warning.
