The 85th minute of the home game between Leeds United and Newcastle United at Elland Road Stadium.
Viduka finally got the best chance in today's game.
Newcastle used one of the few good defenses today to steal the ball from Scott Parker.
Gremi suddenly grabbed the ball and abruptly intercepted Parker's ball. In fact, it was Parker who was a little careless and failed to protect the football, which allowed Gremi to grab the ball.
Of course, this act of losing the ball also made George Lee off the court very dissatisfied, and he loudly rebuked the Leeds United players on the court.
After all, the game progressed perfectly, and Leeds United are now far ahead. If a goal is conceded at this time, it would be the greatest disrespect for this game. After all, George Lee and the Leeds United coaching staff have been preparing for this game for a long time.
Among them, there must be "special" reasons.
The first thing Gremi thought of when he got the ball was to counterattack. He saw Martins, who replaced Irving in the second half, running forward, and he had already run a good opportunity.
Without thinking too much, Gremi quickly released the ball and prepared to pass the ball to Martins.
But when the ball was passed to Martins, it was slightly touched by Albuchesson who was chasing back, and the direction changed.
The ball changed direction and suddenly rolled to the feet of Viduka, who was unguarded on the other side.
Because Leeds United's entire defense was focusing on Martins just now, no one took care of Viduka on the right.
Viduka got the ball with his back and started to turn.
Although this turn was not quick, fortunately no one was guarding him, and he finally faced the goal.
"Damn it!" George Li cursed on the sidelines.
Seeing Viduka getting the ball in front of the penalty area and preparing to enter the penalty area, his mood suddenly became unhappy. But who can say anything about a ball like this?
God knows that the ball will be touched by Albuchesson and then change direction. God knows that it will go to Viduka. God knows that there will be no one to defend near Viduka.
In short, now we can only hope that Viduka is out of form and knocks the ball away or hits it too straight and is caught by Van der Sar.
But Viduka on the court didn't think so. He was holding back his anger today. Every time Leeds United scored a goal today, someone would come over and taunt him, and everyone was targeting him. He was not given the ball or a chance to hit the goal. He even felt that today's physical contact was the most in his career.
It's not because of the fierce competition, but because there are always people who come over to touch him or bump into him when they have nothing to do.
Now, he finally got the ball and could have a good, serious attack without those clowns in white jerseys to interfere with him.
Just shoot with all your might and put the ball into the goal of the Dutchman wearing the yellow goalkeeper jersey.
Everything else doesn't matter.
Viduka pushed the ball forward, first pushing the ball into the penalty area, and then preparing to enter the penalty area himself.
After entering the penalty area, he was ready to shoot directly, making sure to penetrate the Leeds United goal.
Just as he was raising his leg to enter the penalty area, he suddenly felt that his supporting foot was tripped by something, and then a force came from his right foot.
This force quickly turned into a feeling of pain. The force and pain made him unable to maintain his balance and could only fall to the ground.
"Du~" the referee's whistle sounded immediately.
Viduka, who fell to the ground, finally realized what had happened.
Someone fouled behind him, and now the pain in his foot is gone, more of the pain of falling.
"mean!"
Viduka looked at his position and was still outside the penalty area. Just now, I pushed the football into the penalty area, but was knocked down before I could get in.
Thinking he was smart, he quickly rolled into the penalty area holding his ankles.
But as soon as I turned over half of my body, I found that I couldn't roll anymore.
Because Van der Sar came to the penalty area line and blocked his progress.
Or the tumbling route.

Red card! ! !
The referee did not make any extra moves and directly showed the red card to Lee Bowyer.
Viduka faced the goal and already had a one-on-one goal. Bowyer put the tackle behind him, and it was a double-leg tackle.
In this case, there is no need to say anything more. The referee will definitely show a red card.
An additional ban may even be imposed on top of the original ban.
Bowyer did not argue with the referee after the foul. He just raised his hands and waited for the referee's decision.
After the red card was shown, he silently began to walk off the court.
When he was about to reach the sidelines, the Elland Road stadium burst into warm applause.
The applause started to get louder and louder, and almost all the home fans started to give them a standing ovation.
After hearing this, Bowyer started to raise his hands to applaud and signal to all the spectators the moment he walked out of the sideline.
The live camera first showed Bowyer, then began to move upward toward the Leeds United fans at the scene, and finally stopped at the scoreboard.
6 to 0. The home team goes first and the away team goes last.
"We saw that Bowyer, who had just played for 6 minutes, committed a tactical foul and knocked down Viduka, who was already alone. The referee decisively showed a red card."
"Generally in this case, the referee will look at the location of the foul. If it is inside the penalty area, it should be a penalty kick plus a yellow card. If it is outside the penalty area, it will be a set kick plus a red card."
"Since it is a red card, there is a high probability that the referee will consider this ball a foul outside the penalty area."
"Sure enough, the referee signaled that it was a foul outside the penalty area."
"The Newcastle players kept signaling to the referee that it should be a penalty kick."
"It's just that the referee insists on his decision. Let's take a look at the replay..."
"..."
"It was indeed a foul outside the penalty area, very decisive."
The BBC commentator was constantly explaining the foul committed by Leeds United just now.
Lee Bowyer, who returned to the bench, received a hero's welcome.
Several young assistant coaches, bench players who did not play, and replaced starters all hugged Bowyer one by one.
Bowyer sat down on the bench and refused the water offered to him by his teammates.
"I've only been up for a few minutes, and I came down before the activity started."
"Haha..." Everyone around laughed.
"Alan should do this job. I was just about to tell him that I wanted to change positions with him. I went to the wing to let him move to the center, and this happened. If I had changed positions earlier, it would have been him who received the red card. "
At this time, Brian Kidd poured cold water on him and said: "That's different. It's okay if you are a substitute who is suspended for a few games. Alan's suspension will have a greater impact."
Although what Kidd said was true, it was still a bit hurtful to say so.
But Bowyer wasn't angry either. If it were him in the past, he would probably have sex with Kidd on the bench.
I have beaten my teammates on the field, and it is not impossible to beat the coach.
"You can't say that. If George had been the head coach instead of you and Eddie, maybe I would have won the Ballon d'Or a long time ago."
The bickering between the two sparked cheers from the Leeds United bench.
"Once the game is over, don't bother everyone with Viduka."
After seeing Viduka knocking the set ball away, George Li also returned to his seat and said to several other people.
Everyone was puzzled and thought this was a good opportunity to add insult to injury to Viduka.
"It's not necessary. I think if I continue to mess with him this time, he will stand up and talk trash next time."
George Li spread his hands.

After the game, Viduka thought about escaping back to the dressing room for fear of being stopped and ridiculed by Leeds United players.
But the generous George Lee ignored the matter and was leading Leeds United players to signal to the home audience.
