Ancelotti also saw the clues on the court, and he called Xiao Yu to the sidelines to explain the new tactics.
In the 85th minute, Xiao Yu retreated to the midfield to get the ball, passed Lennon and Palacios all the way, and then had to complete the pass along the left.
But when he tried to pass Alan Horton with a fried meatball, Horton held his arm firmly, and Xiao Yu had no choice but to stop.
Faced with such a defensive move, referee Dean had no choice but to blow his whistle and award Chelsea a free kick from the wing, but he still did not take the card.
The free kick was still taken by Lampard. Perhaps because the previous one did not go through the wall, he sent the ball directly into the stands.
After missing the opportunity, "Magic Lamp" also waved his arms with regret.
In the 88th minute, Tottenham made another personnel adjustment, Redknapp replaced Palacios with Sandro.
Then the time immediately came to the 90th minute, and the fourth official on the sidelines held up a sign to announce 4 minutes of additional time.
In the 91st minute, Xiao Yu once again completed a breakthrough. He had found a way to stay away from the opponent's harsh kicks. He tried his best to retreat to get the ball, and then rushed towards the side. In this way, he could also take advantage of his own speed.
This time Xiao Yu did not choose to break through Horton's defense. Before meeting Horton, he passed the ball diagonally into the penalty area.
Drogba received the football, Dawson and Basson immediately followed him, and he was unable to complete the turn for a while.
He had no choice but to pick the ball up and pass it to Toni Kroos who came in from behind.
Cross was ready to go, raising his left foot to stop the ball and prepare for the next shot.
However, fate doesn't seem to be on his side. Two arms had blocked all his possibilities.
"ah!"
Toni Kroos goes down in the Tottenham penalty area.
"Penalty kick! This is definitely a penalty kick." Zhan Jun's voice was full of excitement, and he immediately made a conclusion for this sudden situation.
Zhang Lu also followed closely and said firmly: "If this is not a penalty kick, it would really be unjustifiable."
"Oops! Dean pointed to the twelve yard point, and Chelsea finally got a penalty kick. This was an excellent opportunity for them to overtake the score." Zhan Jun said with a hint of excitement in his tone.
"Hehe! The referee finally took the card and showed Tottenham goalkeeper Gomez a yellow card warning." Zhang Lu said with a smile.
"This action caused Kroos to fall quite hard. A red card is not too much." Zhan Jun was obviously dissatisfied that Gomez only received a yellow card.
"It's good to be able to play cards. Xiao Yu was violated so seriously just now. The referee didn't even take out the cards. It's really hard to say." Zhang Lu couldn't help but sarcastically said.
The penalty kick was taken by Drogba. Drogba stood in front of the penalty spot, his eyes were determined and profound.
His body leaned forward slightly, his feet close to the ground, ready to start at any time.
The ball trembled slightly at his feet, like a bomb about to explode.
He took a deep breath and then stared at the goal tightly, as if he wanted to pin the eyes of Tottenham goalkeeper Gomez to the goal post.
Drogba took two steps and then kicked off suddenly.
The ball streaked across the penalty area like a shooting star and headed towards the goal.
Gomez leaned slightly to one side, then lunged forward.
He opened his hands and blocked the ball like a cattail fan.
Seeing that his penalty kick was saved, Drogba's eyes instantly became empty and lost.
His body seemed to have lost its strength and he slowly fell to his knees on the ground.
His eyes were full of unwillingness and regret, as if all hope was shattered at this moment.
He silently raised his head and looked at Gomez's figure on the goal, his eyes shining with challenge.
He knew that this game was not over yet and they still had a chance.
"What a pity! Drogba failed to hit the penalty kick, causing Chelsea to miss a golden opportunity to overtake the score." Zhan Jun said regretfully.
"This ball is indeed too much pressure for Drogba, but the game is not over yet. I believe Chelsea will seize the remaining time and continue to actively attack." Zhang Lu gave Chelsea encouragement and support.
Tottenham took a goal kick. Robbie Keane, who had just debuted, received a pass from Bell from the wing and shot a volley that was saved by Cech.
Spurs get a corner kick.
A corner kick was taken, and Van Dijk overwhelmed everyone and pushed the ball out of the penalty area.
Outside the penalty area, Drogba once again headed the ball to Toni Kroos, who had already rushed out of the penalty area.
Cross raised his head and looked at the field. Xiao Yu and Anelka had already spread their legs and rushed forward.
He immediately prepared a powerful long pass to pass the ball forward.
But Modric suddenly appeared, which forced Toni Kroos to dunk the ball again and gave up the opportunity to pass the ball directly.
At this time, Toni Kroos did not know that the thin opponent in front of him was the golden partner with him in his previous life to create Real Madrid's super record of four crowns in five years.
At this moment, all he could think about was why he was so difficult to deal with.
Toni Kroos had to shake several times in succession. After finally getting rid of Modric, he made a powerful long pass.
However, the moment the ball flew out.
Cross shouted in his heart: Oh no!
The football flew high and diagonally towards the right side of the field, and this kick was probably going to go out of bounds...
Anelka in the frontcourt looked at the football flying high and slowed down, choosing to take a breath before engaging in the next scramble for the throw-in.
However, Xiao Yu did not give up. He quickly ran towards the right border.
Although Ekoto didn't understand why Xiao Yu wanted to pursue him, he followed him.
Xiao Yu looked back at the flying football while running.
At the same time, I also glanced at the big screen in the stadium. The score was 1:1, 93 minutes.
He planned in his mind that Chelsea wanted to win and this was an opportunity.
Finally, he rushed to the edge a little early.
Then Xiao Yu jumped up high, and Cross' pass had already arrived.
Everyone watched helplessly as Xiao Yu tipped the ball with his head. He wanted to save the ball back into the court.
Even Tottenham players are thinking, is this height and this save really necessary?
When the football bounces back to the court in a parabola that never sees far, Ekotto has already arrived. As long as the football lands, it will enter Ekotto's control.
Xiao Yu can naturally see it.
At this moment, he had a sudden idea. After landing, he immediately bounced up again, facing the ball that was about to fall, he raised his right leg and kicked it.
"The shot must go in!" Xiao Yu roared in his heart.
Bang! ~
Everyone was amazed by the explosion.
"Is this? Xiao Yu's handling of the ball is really confusing." Zhan Jun looked at Xiao Yu, who had just successfully recovered the ball, handling the ball in a seemingly self-destructive way. It was really hard to understand. .
This action looks like an act of self-sabotage and destruction.
