"Now let me introduce to you today's Liverpool team's starting lineup." Sky Sports commentator Gary Lineker said, "Today Benitez also arranged a 4-2-3-1 formation. The goalkeeper's

The position is Reina."

"In the back four it's Luke Young, Carragher, Skrtel and Joel Luka. In the two-handed position it's Gerrard and Xabi Alonso, and in the three forward positions

On top are Arshavin, Chris Chiu and Kuyt, and at the front is Fernando Torres." Sky Sports commentator Gary Lineker finished in one breath.

"This is the starting lineup of both sides today. It is similar to what everyone guessed. Only some positions have been slightly adjusted. It can be seen that there is nothing unfamiliar to both sides in this game. It will be a straight-forward game.

A game?" Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen asked doubtfully.

"This depends on the specific arrangements made by the head coaches of both sides before the game. However, these two pairs are not strangers at all. In my opinion, there is no need for the two sides to test each other and directly compete with each other." Sky Sports' commentator

Guest Gary Lineker expressed his views.

"Okay, the players from both sides have already appeared, and this season's English FA Cup final is about to begin. Audience friends, are you ready to welcome the birth of the FA Cup champion?" Sky Sports commentator Tim

?Laursen roared with great excitement.

At this time, the players from both sides had already entered the court under the leadership of referee Howard, and the players from both sides had already chosen sides and were waiting for the game to start.

At this time, Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres were standing in the center circle. Fernando Torres stood opposite Qiu Ze with his hands on his hips and one foot on the football. Qiu Ze, however, stood opposite Fernando Torres, but turned his head to look.

Chelsea goal.

Howard, the referee of this game, stood outside the center circle, holding the whistle in his mouth and looking at the watch in his hand.

Beep! Howard puffed his cheeks and blew the whistle to start the game.

"Okay! The final of this season's English FA Cup has started. In ninety minutes, the champion of this season's English FA Cup will be born." Sky Sports commentator Tim Laurson was extremely excited at this time.

Excited, he howled loudly.

Hearing the whistle, Fernando Torres moved the football towards Qiu Ze, and then rushed into the Chelsea half. Chelsea players also rushed into the Liverpool pitch, which marked the official start of the game.

.

Qiu Ze did not let the football stay at his feet for too long. He directly sent the football to the backcourt, and Xavi Alonso caught the football. Qiu Ze himself did not rush into Chelsea's half quickly, but

He looked left and right, then retreated to meet Xavi Alonso.

At this time, Chelsea forward Drogba passed by Qiu Ze like a blue meteor and rushed towards Xabi Alonso who was holding the ball.

Seeing Drogba rushing forward, Xavi Alonso immediately pushed the football forward. The football quickly rolled past Drogba and came to the feet of Qiu Ze, who came back to assist.

As soon as Qiu Ze caught the football, he felt a huge force coming from behind him. He turned his head slightly and saw a dark charcoal head. Damn it, how could Essien be so fast? He was chasing after him right now.

Coming up? Qiu Ze murmured in his heart.

However, Qiu Ze was not slow with the football at his feet. He leaned on Essien and immediately sent the football to the wing. At the same time, Qiu Ze quickly turned around, bypassed Essien, and rushed forward, preparing to fight with the Netherlands on the wing.

Star player Kuyt went one-two.

But Essien was stuck to Qiu Ze like candy, and there was no room for Kuyt to pass the ball. Kuyt, who was originally planning to have a one-on-one with Qiu Ze, saw all this and gave up immediately.

With this idea in mind, he dribbled the ball towards Chelsea's half.

Chelsea's Malouda became a stumbling block for Kuyt. Kuyt's skills at his feet were not flashy, and his playing style was very simple. He did not have the confidence to get past Malouda, so he immediately stopped and pulled the ball back, and then

The football was immediately passed to Joel Luka at the back.

After Giorluka received the ball, he sent the football forward with an overhead kick. At this time, Kuyt quickly turned around and moved forward, having already thrown away Malouda and chasing the football that was flying forward rapidly.

However, Joel Luca's pass seemed to be a little too big, and the ball went directly to Ashley Cole who was rushed out and kicked out of the sideline.

Liverpool's attack was not successful, but fortunately, the ball was not lost.

"Sure enough, as we expected before the game, the two sides started to see red without any testing. However, the Liverpool team was not very anxious. They seemed to be more stable. When there was no good opportunity, they

We will not move forward rashly. This opportunity is actually very good this time. The only pity is that Joel Luca passed the ball a little too wide." Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen immediately said

arrive.

Yes, today the head coaches of both sides did not make any false arrangements before the game. They are very familiar with this opponent. They have played against each other many times this season. Look at how many times they have met in the league and the Champions League.

If you are not familiar with it, you are really stupid.

Therefore, the tactics of the head coaches of both teams today were straightforward. Both head coaches chose to attack, but Liverpool seemed a little more rational. Their mentality seemed to be more peaceful, and they played without arrogance or impatience.

But Chelsea seems to be too fierce. Their momentum seems to be that they are going to KO the opponent as soon as they come up. They attack very fiercely. Especially in the midfield, Chelsea's attack is particularly fierce. They seem to want to use this as a place.

Main battlefield, keep the football away from their penalty area.

Chelsea's defensive strength in the midfield is indeed very powerful, as if it is a meat grinder. Essien has almost no offensive tasks today. His only task is to stick to Qiu Ze and prevent Qiu Ze from threatening him.

Chelsea goal.

From the beginning of the game, Essien did very well. Qiu Ze was closely followed by Essien. Qiu Ze rarely got the ball, which invisibly weakened Liverpool's offensive strength.

Therefore, Chelsea took the initiative not long after the game started, and the football stayed at their feet for more time.

However, to be honest, Essien felt very hard at this time. He felt that his physical energy was consumed very quickly, which may be twice the usual physical energy consumption in other games. Because Qiu Ze is very strong, here

At one point, Essien has almost no advantage.

In addition, Qiu Ze is also very fast, and Essien sometimes has to grit his teeth to be able to keep up with Qiu Ze. This consumes too much physical energy, and Essien is really worried that he will not be able to last the whole game.

He was more worried about being beaten by Qiu Ze in the second half of the game.

At this time, Essien's only hope is that his teammates can score more goals and gain a safer lead while he is still able to keep up with Qiu Ze. In this case, Essien will

Don't worry, you will think that the victory of this game belongs to them.

Essien worked hard, but it was worth it. Because under Essien's restrictions, Liverpool's offense could not be played, and Liverpool's players seemed a little uncomfortable. At this time, Chelsea took advantage of the opportunity and firmly

He controlled the football at his feet and gradually took control of the rhythm of the game.

In the eleventh minute of the first half, Chelsea intercepted a long pass from Liverpool midfielder Xavi Alonso to Fernando Torres in the midfield. Because Qiu Ze was restricted, Xavi?

Alonso has become Liverpool's offensive organizer. He often uses his precise long passes to directly find Fernando Torres in front.

However, this time, Chelsea's Deco was well prepared. After Xabi Alonso passed the football, this guy directly intercepted the football in the middle. After intercepting the football, Deco immediately dribbled the ball in.

Liverpool's half.

Qiu Ze immediately pressed forward, but he was blocked by Essien, the buffalo. Deco entered Liverpool's half safely. Then, before Gerrard pounced on him, he passed the football to the wing with a long diagonal pass.

, Malouda on the wing rushed forward quickly, chasing the football.

Cioluca resisted Malouda desperately, trying to slow down this guy. However, Malouda was very fast, and he couldn't restrain this guy at all. Therefore, this guy deserves a gambling defense.

He immediately withdrew his strength and let Malouda go forward. He turned around quickly, jumped up high, and pushed away the flying football with a header.

Bang bang bang! The Liverpool fans at the scene immediately gave Joel Luca thunderous applause.

Joel Luca's gamble-style defense was successful this time. He successfully pushed the football and let Malouda run away in vain.

However, this time Joelluka's clearance was not complete, and the football he pushed out fell directly to the feet of Ashley Cole who rushed up.

For this ball, Cioluka's safest way was to push the football out of the sideline, but Cioluka didn't do that. Now, the football fell directly to Ashley Cole, who was rushing up.

Underfoot.

Ashley Cole, who rushed up, looked up and glanced at Liverpool's approach, and then unexpectedly drove the football directly into Liverpool's penalty area from a 45-degree position on the wing.

The football flew out from Ashley Cole's feet quickly, drawing an arc and flying into Liverpool's penalty area.

Drogba rushed in from outside the penalty area like an African lion, surpassed Liverpool's defensive player Carragher, jumped high, shook his head rapidly, and slammed the flying football towards Liverpool.

's goal.

"Header bomb!" Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen roared excitedly.
