spn The second half of the game started. Everyone saw that there were obvious changes in the scene. Both teams obviously made adjustments to the tactics of the first half. The scene became more heated. The midfielders of both sides stepped up their fights, and the scene was full of people turning on their backs.
, it will appear from time to time that referee Boll becomes the busiest person on the field.
Li Yu received Osman's heel pass. He just turned around and was about to dribble the ball forward. Just as he was about to accelerate, he suddenly felt that his heel was caught by something. He stumbled and failed to control the football well.
The ball was also taken away.
This is West Ham midfielder Parker. The task of defending Li Yu was handed over to him in the second half. He knew that as long as Li Yu accelerated, he would not be able to catch up with boy No. 22. A very subtle little move, following Li Yu's heel.
After a slight pause, Li Yu, who was about to accelerate, lost his center of gravity and lost the ball as expected.
Referee Boll did not blow the whistle, deciding that it was not a foul. It was a bit like Li Yu's foot slipped without holding it firmly!
Parker was not happy for long after getting the ball. He had just taken two steps when he was tackled by Neville close to the turf. The bright spikes were still shining. He quickly jumped up on the spot and avoided the tackle.
, the football was also shoveled off the sideline.[
Captain, this is to help Li Yu regain the situation. If you can't play cleanly, we can too!
However, the ball was still in West Ham's side, and the quick counterattack turned into a positional attack.
Everton is not afraid of West Ham if they come head-on. In less than 2 minutes, the ball returned to Everton's hands.
This time it was Pienaar who broke in from the wing. He was struggling with Deirara all the way, and suddenly the South African gave the ball away.
Albeche in the middle successfully won the ball when no one was marking him. There was an open space in front of him. Everton's fast attack was replaced by another fast forward.
West Ham missed someone, they have been focusing their defensive attention on Li Yu, and Albeche was a bit ignored.
In a hurry, West Ham central defender McCartney used wrestling moves again, using his hands and feet to knock down the Nigerian.
This time referee Boll's whistle sounded undisputed, yellow card! Free kick!
The foul occurred more than 40 meters away from the goal. Everton Arteta came to take the tactical free kick.
Where are people?
None of the West Ham players defending in the penalty area noticed Li Yu, and Everton No. 22 disappeared.
No, when Bol's whistle sounded, the Spaniard did not pass to the penalty area, but moved to the side, and Li Yu's figure appeared behind him.
Everton took a very strange tactical free kick. Li Yu took the ball, took a step forward, and immediately kicked the ball towards the goal. There were people in the penalty area, and anyone who touched it might pose an unexpected threat.
The ball was moving very fast, and the West Ham players subconsciously turned around to block it, while the Everton players deliberately avoided the trajectory of the ball.
It's amazing. There were so many players in the penalty area of both teams, but no one touched the ball. Green's eyes were full of legs, and he didn't see the ball at all. His line of sight was blocked. By the time the ball emerged from the crowd, it was already too late to move.
Contrary to the direction he originally thought, he squatted in front of the goal, and the ball once again entered the goal he was holding.
The two conceding goals are the most annoying way for the goalkeeper to score goals. They can be seen but cannot be saved!
Especially for the second goal, Green furiously smashed the grass with his hands to vent his anger.
At 2:1, Everton once again took the lead. Clever tactical design and a lucky goal resulted in a classic free kick.
Li Yu didn't expect the ball to go in, so he hesitated for a moment before starting to celebrate the goal.[
This time, I didn’t want any more surprises to happen, so I made a more popular celebration.
He was making a heart shape with his hands, raised his hands to his mouth, and raised his hands.
Without words, everyone knew that this was a goal dedicated to his lover.
Seeing this action, Jenny could no longer restrain her emotions, and tears of joy burst into her eyes. What could be more touching than this? I feel your love!
The fans next to me didn’t think so. The beautiful lady cried because West Ham conceded a goal. Damn it, West Ham, fight back to make this beautiful lady happy.
The fan loudly shouted the goal slogan and soon received a response.
All the West Ham fans shouted loudly, "Counterattack, we have to attack!"
Hearing the shouts of the fans at the scene, what else can the West Ham players do?
Attack, attack with all your strength, at this time, you must quickly save the score!
The two teams finally started a real offensive battle. One side is eager to get back at home, and the other side is full of morale and wants to expand the score. Come on, who is afraid of whom?
The rhythm of the game immediately increased by more than one level. Before, the two teams were driving in 3rd gear, but now they immediately shifted to 5th gear and accelerated with all their strength.
The pace quickened, but it was obvious that the West Ham players were a little anxious mentally, or they had no better way to tear apart Everton's defense in the middle. The opportunities they got were all ended with long shots.
Looking back at the Everton team, the overall advantages are gradually revealed, the players have a tacit understanding and the passing accuracy is high!
Each attack becomes more threatening.
West Ham makes substitutions, Solano comes off Swedish star Ljungberg comes on, Dyer comes off and forward Ashton comes on!
This is a desperate game at home, replacing two players in a row, all attacking players, and replacing Dyer with a forward, changing to a three-forward tactic.
Everton is really not afraid of opponents. Who is in front of them? Li Yu, the league's top goal scorer, can kill you with a counterattack.
Under the command of captain Neville, Everton pulled their formation back and launched a defensive counterattack.
West Ham couldn't care about that much at this time. Even though they knew there was danger, they still had to attack and they had to attack. The head coach was using substitutions to tell the players on the field to attack with all their might!
The tactic of accumulating offensive players still had a certain effect at first. West Ham pressed through the midfield and attacked for a while. They still had few options in front of the penalty area. Everton's defensive replacement was very timely, and the effect of kicking the ball on both sides was also good.
Not very good. Everton was not distracted in the first half. It would be difficult and dangerous for West Ham to score a goal from Everton who were united as one.
Li Yu doesn't play a big role in defense. It just means that he can't defend head-on. There are still opportunities to quickly start intercepting passes.
In the 65th minute, Li Yu observed West Ham's ball distribution route for a long time, and finally he waited for the opportunity and suddenly started to steal the ball successfully.[
The football seemed to be glued to his feet. Following the rhythm of his ankle movements, it swung obediently from left to right, and flew from right to left again. The series of movements were dizzying.
Central defender Gabidon, who didn't even bother to look and still wanted to use the old method of fouling to stop the ball, was about to make a move when Li Yu turned his body in front of him.
“Slalom de Marseille!”
French star Zidane's signature moves.
He tried to commit a foul but failed. There were no West Ham players behind Gabiton. In fact, there was goalkeeper Green squatting in front of the goal!
The stands were filled with cries, and everyone's eyes were focused on the flying Everton No. 22. The home team fans were praying for a miracle, but the Everton fans were holding their breath and preparing to celebrate.
Arriving in front of the penalty area, Li Yu suddenly stopped. Green had already calculated the timing and pounced in front of him. Green was also thankful that this kid gave him a rare opportunity to save his team.
The ball was about to be pounced on, but the man didn't move, but the ball hit him horizontally.
"Hell, I knew there was no such good thing!" Green then noticed that there were other players following him, how he wished they were one of his own.
Albert scored an empty goal, 3:1. Who would have thought that Li Yu would still choose to pass the ball at this time. He could have done it alone, but he found that his forward teammates followed up in time, and this Nigerian could
Barely keeping up with his speed, the next thing is simple: trick the goalkeeper into falling to the ground and pass the ball to assist.
Moyes jumped up and waved his fists in the air. His team had already entered the semi-finals with one foot!
Johnson, who had been warming up on the sidelines, waved his arms to signal the Everton fans in the stands behind him, "Everton Everton oooh!"
Everton fans made loud noises from the Upton Park stadium, and some of the home fans began to leave early in disappointment.
The game restarted, and the West Ham players had not given up their last hope. They were still attacking crazily. At this time, their formation, just like their mentality, was seriously unbalanced and disjointed.
All the offensive players rushed to the front of Everton's penalty area, and there was a huge vacuum zone between the defenders and them. It was really a deadlock!
Corner kick!
Ljungberg was the first to rush over and put the football at the corner kick, buying time and trying to take a quick corner kick.
The Swedes were soon rewarded.
When he took a corner kick in the penalty area, Carlton Cole jumped high and touched it. When the ball reached the back point, another West Ham forward Boa Moute, who was almost invisible in the whole game, stretched out his foot to touch it.
, the football flew into the net, 2:3!
West Ham narrowed the score gap to one goal.
There were still 5 minutes left before the end of the game, and the score changed again.
Boamote picked up the ball, turned around and ran back to the center circle. He was also fighting for the last time.
Substitution, Everton used this time to waste a little more time, Jagielka replaced Albeche!
After completing the substitution, West Ham had just seen hope, but their hope was shattered. Captain Upson kicked down Arteta during the interception and received a second yellow card. Two yellows turned into one red and he was sent off.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Everton Pienaar quickly issued a free kick, and Osman cut forward from the wing, instantly forming a single opportunity. The humble Osman can always step forward at critical moments, 4:2,
Single goal scored!
This was also the final score of the game. Everton successfully eliminated West Ham United and advanced to the League Cup semi-finals!
