Chapter 1408 Free Kick Offensive [Part [-]]
Gerrard didn't step over the football, he swung his right foot and the football flew up.
Because the wall does not jump high, Gerrard's free kick easily bypassed the wall and flew into the penalty area.
"Danger!"
Alan Pardew exclaimed from the sidelines.
But his cry was more symbolic than practical.
Not to mention that he is far away from the penalty area, even if the Newcastle United players are nearby, they may not be interested in listening to what he has to say. The Newcastle United players have to face a dilemma at this time.
Because of the five-person wall, striker Ameobi was cruising around the center circle to see if there was a chance to counterattack, so Newcastle United only had four players in the penalty area!
But these four Newcastle United defensive players had to face as many as six Liverpool players who advanced forward.
In fact, there were not so many offensive players. Liverpool only arranged four tall players in the penalty area at the beginning. Other players, such as Stefan Lichtsteiner, Hazard and Sterling, were Cruising on the perimeter, however, when Gerrard started his run-up, Hazard and Stefan Lichtsteiner on the perimeter suddenly rushed into the penalty area, resulting in a six-on-four situation.
Facing Liverpool's six-man attack, Newcastle United's players panicked. Williamson jumped high, trying to destroy the football ahead of time, but fell to the top.
Pogba also provoked immediately, but he also took the lead.
The Newcastle United fans in the stands were ready to breathe a sigh of relief as the football was about to cross the baseline without anyone touching it.
But Newcastle United fans are doomed to be disappointed.
At [-] meters behind, Manolas suddenly appeared here, sweeping with his left foot. In fact, his shot has no skill at all. It is purely a sweep towards the football, regardless of strength and angle.
But five meters in front of the goal, what is needed is a simple and direct shot!
Coupled with the previous fall of Williamson and Pogba, it attracted Newcastle United goalkeeper Krul's attention to the front point. As a result, when Krul reacted, the football had already flown into the net.
…………
"The ball went in! Goed in! Goed in!! In the scuffle... (pause, watching the replay)...it was Manolas! He swept the football into the gate of Newcastle United!" Andy Gray passionate Roaring in all directions.
"Now the score is 1:1! Liverpool's set-piece attack worked!"
Li Wei, who was on the sidelines, could finally vent his grievances and celebrate the goal on the sidelines.
Manolas, who scored the goal, hadn't figured out how to celebrate the goal, and he was overwhelmed by his teammates who flew over.
The Newcastle United players were very frustrated, they didn't know what to say, they tried their best, and the goddess of luck was on their side before this goal, but their defense still collapsed under Liverpool's strong attack.
The Newcastle United players were upset.
Levi captured this keenly. He took advantage of the Liverpool players walking towards his own half after celebrating. He yelled and attracted the attention of the players. After that, Levi made a gesture to strengthen the attack. .
It is advisable to use the remaining brave to chase the poor bandits, and not to be called the Overlord of Learning!
…………
Li Wei thought that the goal would appear soon, but Li Wei did not expect the goal to come so suddenly!
Just 2 minutes later, it was almost the same position, the difference was that the player who was fouled was not Pogba, but Klose who was attacking with the ball.
Referee Dodd once again gave Liverpool a set-piece.
Gerrard again!
Another free kick assist!
Another break in the back!
The difference is that it was not Manolas who broke the goal this time, but Klose!
After the goal, Klose celebrated with a passionate somersault. Gerrard was also very happy, and he scored twice with an assist.
The most important thing is not just a goal, but Liverpool overtake the score in a flash!
For a team like Newcastle United, the worst-case scenario for Liverpool is to let the opponent lead.How many giants faced the relegation team because they let the opponent miraculously lead, which eventually led to an upset loss!
When Liverpool led by two goals, Newcastle United's morale changed dramatically.
Those Newcastle United players who proudly believed that Liverpool were also afraid of themselves before had fallen into great fear at this time.How can we win against such a strong Liverpool?
Alan Pardew kept encouraging his disciples on the sidelines, but the effect was not great.
Levi made decisive adjustments. Now that the team is leading, there is no need to continue to attack Newcastle United.Liverpool began to shrink, strengthened the possession of the ball in the midfield, and played a ball possession tactic close to the defensive counterattack.
That is to say, the team controls the ball and attacks in the midfield area, advances layer by layer, but retreats decisively when encountering a little stronger resistance.If Newcastle United presses up, Liverpool will decisively fight back.
Liverpool has Klose as a fulcrum in the middle to ferry the header, and there are two fast horses, Sterling and Griezmann, on the wing.
Newcastle United wanted to attack, but were more afraid of being scored again by Liverpool.
At St. James' Park, the Newcastle United team has begun to appear chaotic. The players' offense is more like attacking for the sake of offense without thinking about whether this is the right time to attack.
In the 607th minute of the game, there was another turning point.
Ameobi went to force Pogba, Pogba held the ball behind his back and held the opponent, Ameobi stretched his foot behind his back to kick the ball, but the football did not reach, and instead kicked Pogba a few times.
Pogba screamed and fell to the ground.
The referee Dodd's whistle sounded immediately, calling Ameobi for a foul.
This was originally an ordinary foul, but Ameobi spoke rudely to the referee Dodd who came over. "He's flopping! Didn't you see it? Even if you don't give him a yellow card, you should give me a free kick!"
The referee Dodd raised his finger and pointed to his eyes, and said coldly: "I can see clearly, you made a foul!"
"This is a black whistle!" Ameobi said indignantly.
Ameobi's words successfully stimulated the referee Dodd. Dodd showed Ameobi a yellow card angrily, and then showed a red card. Sent off, spoiled child!"
The Newcastle United players were stunned.
Who would have thought that at this critical point in time, Ameobi would be foolish and clash with the referee Dodd. How far would his IQ drop to make such a low-level mistake!
Ameobi hadn't left the field yet, he argued with the referee Dodd angrily, waited for his teammates to run over, pulled him away, and persuaded him to leave the field, then Ameobi turned and left cursing.
Ameobi is gone, but what he left for the rest of Newcastle United is a huge hole!
