In the FA Cup, except for the final, if the two sides are tied within the regular 90 minutes, there will be no overtime, but an exciting penalty shootout.

This is mainly due to the physical problems of the players during the season. The schedule of the Premier League teams is the densest among the five major leagues. An overtime game is played in the middle of the game, which will inevitably arouse protests from the club.

Speaking of the relationship between the FA and clubs is also very interesting. The reason why the Premier League was able to be established at that time was that the giants united to persuade other teams to leave the FA and form a separate Premier League.

But the Premier League is not completely out of the jurisdiction of the FA, such as the appointment of referees, and the club's desire to obtain Champions League places.

In this case, teams in domestic cup competitions (FA Cup and League Cup) are tied before reaching the final, and the only way to decide the winner is through penalty kicks.

The penalty shootout is very cruel. If the opponent can be resolved within 90 minutes, no player from the two teams will want the game to be dragged to a penalty kick, especially for the goalkeeper!

Given is an Irish national goalkeeper. He is not tall and is an agile goalkeeper. His world-class goalkeeper is Iker Casillas. Although Given can't compare with Cassie, Given has been in the Premier League for many years, and his mentality is actually very stable.

When he saw Lampard standing in front of him, he almost immediately thought of the joke that Li Xian said in the dressing room, which made our goalkeeper have to complain in his heart about his "Little Bread" coach——

What a crow's mouth you are!

He must have a chat with Alan Shearer sometime after the game!Talk about how to make him pay attention to the coach's mouth!

At this moment, Ji Wen is ready and waiting for the rescue.

Lampard in front of him also took a deep breath. Lampard's mentality in the sports game is actually very good, but at this time Chelsea's penalty kick is really hard to explain. Of course he is the one who is responsible and has been criticized by the media. , which made Lampard take a gamble, he was about to score a penalty!

After the referee whistled, Lampard took a few steps to run up, and then swung his calf vigorously to complete this quick volley!

After finishing the shot, his gaze was still fixed on the lower right corner of the goal, which was the direction he was aiming at, but the next moment he hugged his head in frustration, and at that moment, various emotions swept over him.

At the moment Ji Wen hugged the ball, Li Xian's mood rose from the bottom to heaven in an instant, which made him jump up and punch hard. Ozil rushed out and hugged him.

Everyone hugged together and looked at Ji Wen on the field. Ji Wen also raised his hands and shouted!

At this moment Newcastle escaped from death, but it was only a reprieve!

Because they sent off one person now, now 10 against 11!

And their opponent is Chelsea!

Substitution, substitution now!

But what was unexpected was that although he replaced Solano, it was not a defender, but Shearer!Is the magpie going to attack?

But the players obviously don't understand his idea of ​​substitution in this way. This substitution also caused the commentators to talk a lot, because it is very likely that it was a substitution that caused them to lose the ball. Li Xian explained a few words to Shearer. The captain looked at Li Xian with complicated eyes.

You crow mouth!Don't think about defense now, just think about penalties!

How do you know Chelsea will score?

Li Xian smiled at him when he saw the look in his eyes, he couldn't say "I think Robben's state is a little bit wrong today, I checked the eyes, he is someone who wants to explode", right?

He also has his own ideas about the choice of defender. He thinks that Mascherano can solve this problem by retreating. The bus is driving!

After Shearer came on the field, Li Xian asked him to retreat to play the position of the midfielder, and then let Mascherano transform into a deep-back central defender, which barely made up for Babayaro's sent off.

Five minutes later, Newcastle lost a goal in Li Xian's "I knew it" eyes, and Shearer was speechless...

Of course, the cause of conceding the ball was not Shearer, but Robben's rampage on the right. Robben's desire to attack is very strong today. It's not a point, but a goal!

He wants to score!

Robben didn't play until 60 minutes into the second half. He was full of energy and vigorous. Boomsong, who was defending him, had actually tried his best, but Robben used his typical Robben style to cut inside and finished the shot.

Li Xian shook his head and sighed, he also wanted such an SSR-level player with the "Critical Strike" attribute fully activated!

After Robben scored a goal, the mentality of the players may change. Li Xian immediately encouraged the players, and then made a very special gesture——

He pointed to Ji Wen.

Chelsea only conceded 15 goals last season, ranking first in the bottom five leagues, which shows that their defense has reached the extreme!

This season they are still the team with the fewest conceded goals in the five major leagues. Newcastle has achieved the ultimate defense today, but apart from Owen's experience at the beginning of the game, he did not get any decent opportunities.

It is unrealistic to overtake the score again, but now that the time is approaching 80 minutes, there is great hope for defending these 10 minutes!

90 minutes to kick a penalty!They have Irving, they have Shearer, what else is there besides Shearer?

Li Xian made another substitution at this time. He replaced Bumsong with Ramage. He chatted with Bumsong when he was off the court. He didn't blame Bumsong for conceding the ball just now. I don't want to add any more psychological burden to the Frenchman.

Boumsong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, because of his poor performance last season, coupled with Li Xian's obvious preference for Pepe, he has been worried about his future in Newcastle.

But obviously his boss is not a head coach who likes to blame players. On the contrary, Randall can even be called tolerant.

For the mistakes of the players, for example, Baba Yaluo who just sent a red dot package, Li Xian personally sent him to the player channel, and has been comforting him. This is very important to the players. Boumsong thinks that Baba Yaluo will not To make a mistake on purpose, because no one wants to make that kind of mistake against their old club.

Mourinho is also beginning to direct the team to attack at this time, mainly to let Lampard move forward more actively and cooperate with Robben.

His passionate command on the sidelines got him a lot of shots for a while.

Li Xian understood very well, as the saying goes, "I'll kill you while you're sick", whether it's on the battlefield or on the court, this trick is feasible.

But he doesn't want to give Mourinho a chance to kill!He wanted to win, he wanted to get that trophy, not just because of the added bonus it brought, but also because it was something Alan Shearer desperately wanted.

He deserves a trophy like this, he deserves it.

Now it looks like his players are doing well!

"Hahahaha, it's really interesting. Randall put Alan Shearer on the field but he didn't use him as a striker. Now even Irving is back on defense and rarely goes out of his own half. Randall can say that he will The line of defense has been compressed to the extreme, and the technique of driving a bus is quite good..."

This is the first time that Li Xian has placed a bus in the penalty area, wishing that human flesh could block the goal.

Only at this moment did he deeply understand Mourinho's famous saying "They drove the car to my door, so don't blame me for driving the bus into the restricted area."

However, although he did not concede a goal, he felt that there was still room for improvement. Mascherano, who played as a central defender for the first time, was still not stable enough. When he was with Pepe, both of them always wanted to get in.

But it's not incomprehensible. After all, Mascherano is the first time a central defender, but he remembers that Mourinho also seemed to let Pepe play as a midfielder?

Li Xian thinks that in a few days of training games, a guest game can be arranged to let the players relax.

While he was paying attention to the situation on the court, an object flew over him. It was Parker's ball that flew towards him because of refraction when he was fighting for the top with Essien.

If you don't show off at this time, when will you wait?

That's right, Li Xian just wanted to distract the Chelsea players!

He took a step forward and completed unloading the ball almost smoothly, but he did not return the ball directly to the Chelsea players as a gentleman like before, but just like Owen completed the shot with a stop and shoot, with He lifted the ball up with his knee, and the next moment he stretched his body and completed a shocking lob!

Andy Gray was also stunned, and when he reacted, he picked up the microphone and shouted: "GOOOOAL!!!!!! The goal came from Randall Li! Cech made a save, he is a good goalkeeper, But alas, the ball was hoisted into the goal! Of course, I must say, it was a disallowed goal! Oh! Gallagher went to Randall, will he invite him to the stands?"

After the on-duty referee Gallagher communicated with the fourth official, he walked towards Li Xian with a dark face.

He has seen the coach show off on the sidelines, but he has never seen such a show from Li Xian!

Li Xian blinked innocently at Gallagher, who was coming aggressively, but he didn't try to defend himself.

But Gallagher obviously didn't like him. The guy in front of him was not innocent at all. He almost said to him angrily: "Randall! Please don't disturb the order. If you want to score goals on the field, Shoot, I suggest you register a player and put yourself on the field, the rules allow you to do this, but I don’t allow you to disturb the order of the field like this on the sidelines! This is a warning, if there is a second time, I will send you on Grandstand!"

Li Xian knew that his actions just now might cause some trouble. He thought he would be invited to the stands. At this moment, he smiled from the bottom of his heart, and raised his hands like a "good boy" to assure: "Of course!" , there will be no next time, I promise."

Gallagher glanced at him again before returning to the court with a dark face.

As mentioned before, the FA Cup is the cornucopia of the FA. In order to increase the ratings and attendance of the FA Cup, when they make the schedule, they often put the FA Cup on Sunday and the league on Sunday. in the middle of the week.

Li Xian's show just now did make Gallagher feel that the game was disturbed, but if he was directly sent to the stands, it might cause controversy, and it would not be easy to state it in the game report after the game.

So Gallagher gave a verbal warning and decided to extend the stoppage time by 2 minutes.

let you show!

When Li Xian was arguing with the referee, all the players on the Newcastle field looked sympathetically at Petr Cech, especially Shay!

Ji Wen is really glad that he is a player under Randall's command, at least he doesn't have to worry about suddenly being on the background board in this way!

And Cech?Twice today!

From the sidelines of Li Xian's away coach's bench to the goal guarded by Cech, the distance has exceeded 60 meters!

This is destined to be a game that will often appear on major TV stations and be counted repeatedly, and Cech, who is the background board, is actually very innocent——

This ball was more difficult than Beckham's mid-circle lob shot back then, and Li Xian's shot was unexpected. When Cech reacted, he had already judged the right direction, but the trajectory of the ball in the air was very erratic. It's a bit far from Cech's judgment...

This affected the rhythm of the game to some extent. Mourinho now looked at Li Xian with anger in his eyes. He thought Gallagher should send him to the stands!

There is not much time left in the game. In the last few minutes, Chelsea pressed heavily. This is almost their most turbulent game this season except against Middlesbrough.

They felt very aggrieved, 11 to 10, and it was fine if they couldn't score a goal in the end, and they were robbed of all the limelight by the opposite head coach...

In the last few minutes, Chelsea got two corner kick opportunities one after another, which also made the hearts of Newcastle fans tremble. Their high-altitude defense dropped to another level after Boomson stepped down. It is really worrying!

Chelsea didn't take their chances and had to settle for a penalty shoot-out with Newcastle after a lengthy six-minute stoppage time.

Although all the Newcastle players have persisted until this moment, they still have mixed feelings at this moment——

If it weren't for Robben's goal, they would have been able to advance directly now, what kind of penalty shootout would they use to test their hearts?It's all Randall's fault!

Crow mouth!Definitely a crow's mouth!Their coach is a big crow!

What about penalty shootouts, now penalty shootouts are finally here!

The rule of the penalty shootout is that the two sides guess first and take turns to shoot at the penalty spot twelve yards in front of the goal.There are 5 players in each round. If there is no winner in the first round, then 5 players who did not participate will be selected to continue shooting each other.

Both Li Xian and Mourinho had a few minutes to count the players' shot order.

When Li Xian asked the players, he found that he had received a cold reception, and Shearer complained directly to him: "Randall! It's all your mouth, we really want to kick a penalty!"

Li Xian smiled, he didn't want to, he just made the worst plan so that the players could play football with peace of mind.

He blinked and looked at Shearer innocently, "Did I say something wrong? Don't you dare to compete with them for penalties?"

"This kind of aggressive method is useless to me, but they are really weak!" Hiller muttered, and said decisively: "I am the first!"

Li Xian immediately looked at their top card, Owen.

Owen raised his eyebrows, "I am fifth."

Generally, the first and last finale of a penalty shootout is the most psychologically stressful. Now the captain and the top card have arranged the first and last one, and then the vice-captain Parker stood up and said, "I am second."

"Boss, I want a third," Modric said.

"Then I'm fourth," Nzobia said.

So their order is Shearer, Parker, Modric, Nzobia and Owen.

Very good, these are also the 5 most stable penalty shooters in Li Xian's mind. Li Xian encouraged them, looked at Ji Wen, gave him his thumb and said, "Shay, they say I'm a crow's mouth, But I think you're going to make a great jump today, just like that one."

Mourinho also finished counting the order of penalty shooters at this time, but his face was very gloomy. As everyone knows, Chelsea's penalty kicks have always given him a headache!

To buy someone, you must buy someone, Mourinho thought bitterly.

He has never won the FA Cup. He thought they would be a double champion this season, but now everything has changed!

He has always believed that they have been treated unfairly in penalty kicks, and the penalties awarded to them are far less than Manchester United, Arsenal, and Liverpool, but when the penalties meet the standards in his heart, the mentality of the players is simply impressive. Headache.

Based on the fact that Lampard missed a shot today, the rest of the players also gave the vice-captain a lot of face. Before it was his turn, he signed up for all 5 places.

Of course, it is also understandable that everyone does not want Lampard to get another chance to take the penalty.

Their order is Terry, Drogba, Robben, Ferreira and Carvalho.

Well, no Lampard, but Terry's penalty...

Mourinho can only pin all his hopes on Drogba!

This is the most exciting and exciting moment in the football world, and it is also the moment that tests the players' mentality the most.

This time Alan Shearer lost to John Terry, so it was Chelsea who shot first, then it was Newcastle's turn.

Hiller raised his eyebrows and watched Ji Wen start to prepare.

Shay saved Lampard's penalty in the game, which is of great help to a goalkeeper's mental state!

Generally speaking, players who take free throws will choose the lower left corner or the lower right corner when shooting. Of course, there are also those who are more skilled and will choose the two upper corners. There are also some players with strong enough psychological quality who will choose to shoot in the middle.

When the goalkeeper saves a penalty kick, he basically chooses to block the left and right directions with a mentality of anticipation and gamble, so that the center will be vacant. Of course, there are many examples of playing off.

Terry stood in front of the penalty spot and looked at Shay.

Shay is prepped and ready to launch now!

The referee blew his whistle, and a few seconds later the entire Stamford Bridge was filled with sighs.

The sighs of tens of thousands of people are grouped together. If you are not watching the game at the scene, it may be difficult to imagine what kind of pressure it is.

Then there was Shearer standing in front of the penalty spot, and his opponent was Petr Cech.

I said before that Cech conceded very few goals this season. He is an excellent goalkeeper. At this time, he has not encountered the biggest crisis in his career: headshot.

He is still one of the best goalkeepers in the world!

But his opponent is none other than Alan Shearer!

If you want to choose a penalty kick king in the history of England, this person must be Shearer!

Shearer is a player who hits two dead corners in the top corner when shooting. His mentality is very stable and his shooting skills are superb. Basically, he shoots directly to the dead corner, making it difficult for the goalkeeper to judge the direction. save...

Shearer's shooting speed is also very fast. The time from the moment he shoots to the goal line is 0.05 seconds faster than the average of other players.

Although it is only 0.05 seconds, for the goalkeeper, it may be the difference between saving and not being able to save.

The Blues fans were making noise almost desperately at this moment. They hoped to put pressure on Shearer. They all knew how strong and stable the former captain of the national team was before the penalty kick.

After the referee blew his whistle, Shearer started his run-up, and then it was his iconic explosive shot!

No doubts!The ball hit the upper right corner firmly and bounced in the net!

At this moment, the Magpies fans who came with the team cheered!They are chanting Shearer's name, their old captain is Wen! ! !

After Shearer took the shot, he made his signature celebration move, which is the rustic right arm that everyone knows, and Li Xian applauded for this move.

In one and a half months, this season will end, and Shearer's farewell game will come.When Shearer hangs up his boots and wants to see such a celebration on the court, it can only be in a charity game or a senior game.

Watch and cherish!

The score of 0:1 made Mourinho look very ugly, he frowned and looked at Drogba intently.

Warcraft from Côte d'Ivoire walked to twelve yards with the ball in his arms. He looked at it very calmly, and his emotions could not be seen from his face. When the camera moved away from his face in disappointment, it turned into a wide-angle shot, Warcraft Already shot!

It was an equally decisive shot, but instead of chasing angles, Drogba hit the bottom right corner and the ball sailed over the line.

Only then did Drogba pat his chest, responding to the fans' cheers.

1: 1!

Now standing in front of the penalty spot is the Magpies' vice-captain, Parker, a character who makes the Blues fans a little silent.

Parker used to be their player. If there was anything wrong with him when he was in the Blues, there was nothing wrong with him. At most, he dribbled too much.

To say that he is strong, they love Lampard, Essien and Makelele's partners more now.

Faced with this kind of ex, everyone can bless him when he leaves, but when he returns to Lanqiao, it seems... still to boo him!

During the booing, Parker calmly placed the ball and looked at Cech.

After the whistle blew, he also decisively sent the ball into the goal!

1: 2!

Cech's face was a little ugly at this moment, he took a deep breath to adjust his mentality.

Parker did not celebrate as passionately as Shearer after scoring the goal. He still walked to the side in the same way as before the shot, waiting for Robben to play.

Peter Pan from the Netherlands, the thirty-year-old man in everyone's eyes, pushed the ball into the net very calmly.

At this time the score is already 2:2, but Newcastle has not yet penalized in the third round.

Modric held the ball and walked to the penalty spot. The Magpies fans were shouting desperately for Luka, and the home fans were booing desperately, but Modric turned a deaf ear to everything. He only had the ball in front of him. and his opponents.

Cech!

Two seconds later, Cech shook his head slightly. The Croatian in front of him was very stable and confident in his shooting skills. He actually hit the upper corner...

With a score of 2:3, everyone's eyes were focused on Ferreira, who played fourth.

Ji Wen stared at Ferreira, and when he took a shot, he jumped to the right, because he thought Ferreira looked in that direction twice, and he was right!

The cheers of the Newcastle fans lasted less than 1 minute, and Enzobia's shot was saved by Petr Cech!

The score remained unchanged, but it was the turn of the fifth player to play——

Owen, Carvalho!

Now all the pressure is concentrated on the Portuguese central defender!

Mourinho looked at Carvalho, his direct descendant. Carvalho scored and Owen missed. They will return to the same starting line and start the next round of penalty shootouts. But if Owen scores, everything will be over. suspense.

In the anticipation of tens of thousands of fans at Stamford Bridge, Carvalho steadily sent the ball into the net, but the fans did not celebrate, they just looked at Owen with mixed feelings.

Owen's penalty kick was unstable for a while, what about this time?

Owen stood in front of the penalty spot with the ball in one hand, and he looked at Cech.

After the whistle, he didn't prepare to shoot immediately, but suddenly smiled at Cech, and the next moment he started running and accelerating!

Cech slowed down a little bit, he wanted to judge the ball first, but he found that he was wrong!This is a clever shot!

Owen did not shoot to the two upper corners, but to the middle.

That's not a "spoon penalty kick" showing off skills, it's just a shot with no arc but fast enough!

At the moment of scoring, Irving opened his arms and began to "fly".

He enjoys being Mr. Key!His teammates rushed forward, and in Cech's loneliness and Mourinho's frustration, they happily piled up a mountain of people!

Although their leader is a crow mouth!

But he still got the ending right!

For that, forgive him!
