Chapter 652 4 Crowns!
"..." Martin Taylor rolled his eyes and thought to himself, I won't argue with you, a boss, so just let it be what you say!
One minute later, the newly arrived Robben quickly ran through the Manchester United team. Bridge passed the ball on the left, and Robben leaned back and headed the ball towards the goal.
"Robben is really a huge threat. He has been lying in bed most of the season. If he returns to the team early, maybe Chelsea will not be so miserable."
Robben's arrival seems to have inspired Cristiano Ronaldo. The two have been competing for the honor of the world's number one winger. Currently, Cristiano Ronaldo is temporarily sitting in the position of number one winger because of his better performance this season. He received a call from Edwin van der Sar. After passing the ball, he ventured forward and accelerated.
Lampard and Mikel were stunned for a moment, what the hell, just passed between them?
Fortunately, Makelele came.
It was just a move of Ronaldo's right foot, which happened to pass by Makelele! Changed to the right. Rooney understood and rushed to the left, while Dong Fangzhuo still attracted the defensive firepower of Terry and Essien in the middle.
Bridge, who was extremely active in this game, did not dare to rush forward again. He just walked forward with small steps, ready to rush forward with Ronaldo at any time.
His idea was correct, Ronaldo did continue to dominate! Bridge didn't dare to hesitate, he stretched out his foot and poked the ball over. This move was very risky. If it failed, it might be a yellow card. Even if it didn't, it would let Ronaldo reach the bottom line. But he succeeded. Ronaldo worked hard. Dribbling the ball from the backcourt, he failed to pose a threat in the end.
"It would have been better to pass the ball earlier. Cristiano Ronaldo sometimes delays the opportunity. When his mind is clear, he is still very team-minded, but he obviously didn't do it well just now. He could have given the ball to Dong, or passed to Rooney at the far end, but..."
2 minutes later, Scholes made a precise long diagonal pass. It was Rooney's turn to get a chance. He volleyed directly with his left foot from 9 meters on the left!
Phew, the ball went high.
"Why are these two guys so unreliable at the critical moment?"
Not only did Lineker sigh, but the Manchester United fans in the stands also looked disappointed. We can't rely on Dong Fangzhuo to solve the problem in every game.
It's impossible to seize such a good opportunity. Ronaldo is quite reliable most of the time, but Rooney is simply invincible.
Usually you don't see much when you play against a weak team. After all, there are many opportunities, and you will always seize the opportunity to score. But when you play against a strong team, it is exposed. If you miss one or two opportunities, it will feel like a waste.
Rooney also covered his face in frustration. He knew what his plane meant.
The two teams are now in a stalemate, and any opportunity can quickly change the situation and even bring victory.
Wasting this opportunity, Chelsea immediately got a free kick in the frontcourt. Scholes kicked Lampard directly on the left side of the backcourt and was given a yellow card.
Drogba took the free kick. He bounced the ball and shot directly into the near corner. The ball hit the outside of the post and bounced out of the baseline.
Mourinho made an exaggerated 180-degree turn on the sidelines, but Chelsea's offensive had not stopped yet. Then, Robben made three consecutive breakthroughs on the left side, but the response in the middle was poor and he failed to pose a direct threat.
After Chelsea missed these threats, it was Manchester United's turn to show off their prestige. In the 65th minute, Dong Fangzhuo took the ball on the left and used the outside instep of his left foot to force Essien into the penalty area. Essien did not dare to make a random move. Fortunately, Terry Arriving in time, Cech struck out to win the ball from Dong Fangzhuo under Terry's interference.
In the 70th minute, Carrick passed the ball behind him. Ronaldo countered offside and waited on the right to pass. Essien quickly chased back and kicked the ball out of the baseline.
Dong Fangzhuo wanted to rush into the penalty area to respond, but was blocked outside the penalty area by Makelele, and eventually fell to the turf, but the referee ignored him.
"Such an obvious blockage, no foul?"
"The only thing left for Makelele is to turn into stone to block Dong. He can't stop him at all."
Modric took a tactical corner kick and Carrick made a cross from the right, but Terry pushed the ball away steadily.
In the next 10 minutes, the game reached a deadlock again.
"At this point, Ferguson still hasn't made any substitution adjustments. Is he thinking of dragging the game into overtime?"
Manchester United's last chance came in the 85th minute. Dong Fangzhuo pulled to the right to get the ball. He swung Bridge away with an ox's tail and then passed directly to the center. However, Ronaldo, who was facing the ball and shooting furiously, shot the ball towards Corner flag direction...
beep,
beep,
beep,
The referee called the game ruthlessly.
"Overtime,"
"The game shall not go into overtime."
"Both sides had to face the pain of overtime. Of course, this was even more detrimental to Manchester United. Their lineup was going to play in the Champions League final, while Chelsea was actually waiting to work. Many of them were not in the final They started one league game and they had one more day off than Manchester United. Of course, Mourinho didn’t want that because he had so few players available.”
"Chance,"
"We have to seize the opportunity like crazy,"
"Be calmer when shooting!"
Ferguson gritted his teeth in the player's ear and said that he had actually been angry for a long time. Although Manchester United did not have as many opportunities as Chelsea, they also missed several opportunities to score goals.
"Dong, try more shots, and don't be so precise with your coordination."
Then he whispered into Dong Fangzhuo's ear, "Shoot from far away."
Then he ran to explain to Rooney and Ronaldo. Both Rooney and Ronaldo lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Although Ferguson said it in a low voice, the two of them were probably embarrassed...
In the first minute of overtime, Rooney came up and successfully broke through Ferreira, but it was a pity that Essien replaced the ball and destroyed the ball. Manchester United got a corner kick opportunity. Dong Fangzhuo and Ferdinand came up and were closely guarded in Chelsea's penalty area. The height of Chelsea players was no worse than that of Manchester United players. As a result, the corner kick did not threaten Chelsea's goal.
Fans from both sides could not sit still, they all stood and watched the game. Everyone hoped that their team could score a goal. The anxious scene also made them anxious, and the head coaches of both sides also kept shouting loudly on the sidelines, for fear of stopping. If you come down even for a minute, you will be met with bad luck.
Ferguson finally made a move and Giggs replaced Scholes. Subsequently, Mourinho continued to make adjustments to the forward line and replaced Wright Phillips with Kalou. The substitutions of both sides were somewhat similar. They still wanted to score goals and did not want to drag the game into a penalty shootout.
But the defense of both sides is still the focus. In the 102nd minute, Giggs made a pass from the left. Dong Fangzhuo took the ball with his back in front of the goal and was pulled by Terry. His body lost his balance. Essien immediately stepped in and kicked the ball away. The referee did not seem to see this action, and his view was blocked by Rooney.
No one protested at this time, and attention was focused on the confrontation. Lineker, on the other hand, muttered something: "It seems that Mourinho's psychological warfare before the game was successful. The referee may be biased towards Chelsea."
"That's not necessarily true. The referee may not have seen it. This action may or may not be judged."
"I'm almost down, how can I still not judge?" Lineker smiled...
Two minutes later, Robben's midfielder's cross was intercepted by Carrick, who passed it to Ronaldo. Ronaldo took the ball for two steps and then handed it to Dong Fangzhuo who advanced forward. Dong Fangzhuo immediately passed the ball low to the left side of the goal. Rooney passed the ball at high speed Rushed past Ferreira and shot with a sliding shovel from 4 meters!
"ah!!!!"
There was a scream in the stands. Everyone thought Rooney was going to score, but Cech held the ball in front of the goal line!
Immediately afterwards, Giggs did not stop and directly bumped into Cech. Cech rolled the ball into the goal...
Of course, it is impossible for the referee to rule that the goal is valid. This is a collision with the goalkeeper.
"Rooney..."
Ferguson couldn't bear it anymore and immediately replaced Rooney with Rossi!
"This ball didn't even hit the goal. Rooney must be celebrating the league championship every day and has forgotten how to kick the ball. His legs are too weak. Are these Rooney's legs?"
Missing this opportunity, Chelsea immediately had the same good opportunity in the 105th minute. Robben passed the ball from the right, Heinze headed the ball to the far end, and the tall Drogba suddenly flashed a header from a small angle at the back point. Attack the goal, but he also misses!
"Drogba also lost his shooting boots, and both forwards were infected with the virus of not scoring goals."
In the first half of overtime, it was still difficult for both sides to break the deadlock.
105 minutes passed like this, and the two sides directly exchanged halves.
In the 107th minute, Dong Fangzhuo received a pass from Ronaldo and hit the goal 20 meters away from the left rib. However, Essien jumped up, blocked the shot with his body, and kicked the ball to the feet of Robben, who took the ball. Flying up, he was about to ride alone for thousands of miles, but Giggs stretched out his right foot and kicked Robben directly in the calf. Robben immediately fell down.
Then, tragedy happened at Chelsea, and Robben couldn't get up again.
"This...Robben just came back from injury and came on as a substitute in the second half. Now he is going to go down again..." Ashley Cole had to go into battle.
"When will Robben's glass body last?"
"Another spot was wasted."
"Mourinho's head must be on fire right now..."
Robben's injury affected Chelsea's morale to a certain extent. Lampard, who was somewhat inactive in this game, knocked the ball back into the backcourt, but Terry started the attack with a long pass and went directly to Drogba. It's just that Drogba was unable to grab the ball under the double-teaming of Vidic and Ferdinand.
The ball fell at the feet of Scholes. Scholes launched a precise long pass from 60 meters away, teaching Terry how to kick a precise long pass in a timely and appropriate manner!
"Ronaldo!"
"Ronaldo!"
Ronaldo succeeded in countering offside. He raised his right foot high and tried to get rid of the ball. It's a pity that the ball bounced on his calf, and he didn't judge the right spot! Instead, the ball bounced in front of Cech and was firmly pressed by Cech.
"Tsk, tsk, there's a collective epidemic."
"The turf at Wembley Stadium must have just been sprayed with a drowsy pesticide, otherwise why would the players be in such bad shape that they wouldn't even stop the ball."
Ronaldo ran back very annoyed and caught up with Kalu. In anger, he directly tackled Kalu from the backcourt.
Beep!
The referee hated this kind of player and gave Ronaldo a yellow card. But there is not much time left, and I believe it will have no impact on Ronaldo.
Time was running out and it looked like the game was about to end and then go into a penalty shootout.
Lampard took a free kick, and Kalou volleyed with his right foot while running. The ball almost knocked down the natural satellite.
"If you don't have this footwork, don't waste your money! It's not easy to get a good opportunity."
"You can definitely stop the ball. Of course, everyone is very anxious now and it is impossible to calm down."
The ball hadn't even flown out of the baseline. Van der Sar picked up this outrageous ball near the baseline and immediately threw it to Modric in the center. The Chelsea players hadn't reacted yet. Maybe they really thought the ball had crossed the baseline, but No!
The referee did not stop the game and the game continued.
Only Makelele was focused enough, but when he shouted, Modric had already picked a pass from the middle. Rossi ran over to respond and passed it directly to Ronaldo on the right. The latter then knocked back to the middle and the ball circled around The parabola flew towards Dong Fangzhuo who was rushing up!
A smooth flow of cooperation! Only Dong Fangzhuo was left to face Cech alone, while Terry and Essien were both five meters away from Dong Fangzhuo.
Cech rushed out like a crazy leopard, trying to clear the ball before Dong Fangzhuo. Dong Fangzhuo was also scrambling for time. He didn't even intend to wait for the ball to land. He quickly jumped into the air, stretched his right foot forward, and Cech Still half a beat too slow!
The ball passed Cech, flew into the goal leisurely, and succeeded in the empty goal!
"goooooooooooooooal!"
"goooooooooooooooooooooooooal!"
“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”
His total personal goals this season reached 55.
"Dong, he killed the game!"
"1:0, 116th minute."
"Manchester United leads Chelsea 1:0."
The Manchester United fans in Wembley Stadium were excited. Everyone hugged each other tightly, waiting for this goal. They waited for a full 116 minutes. The game was about to be dragged into a penalty shootout, but the Manchester United captain still stood up. .
Although all the credit for this goal cannot be attributed to Dong Fangzhuo. Many people have contributed to Manchester United's smooth attack, but it was still Dong Fangzhuo who scored the goal!
"It's not easy!"
"This is the most difficult domestic game Manchester United has played this season!"
In the final stage, Kalu and Ferreira turned yellow one after another. In stoppage time, Kalu's long shot missed directly.
beep,
beep,
Beep!
In the end, Manchester United defeated Chelsea 1:0 in overtime and won the 2006/07 FA Cup championship trophy, and received a championship bonus of 1 million pounds.
"Four Crowns!"
"Manchester United wins another title!"
"The only thing left for them is the Champions League!"
Manchester United's coaching bench and bench had already rushed into the stadium to celebrate their fourth championship this season.
The crazy Manchester United fans jumped over the billboards and rushed to the stadium crazily, and surrounded the Manchester United players, carving them up completely.
Dong Fangzhuo was not spared. In an instant, all his clothes were stripped off, leaving only a pair of white underwear to cover up his appearance. The scene instantly became messy...
"Hey, what a scary scene..."
"Crazy Manchester United, crazy Manchester United fans..."
