As a goalkeeper, carry the team forward

Chapter 100
The ball is in.

Villa 1 to 0.

Jose jumped out of his seat on the spot.

"Beautiful, that's how it should be, back down the bus."

"It's good to score first, but can you defend it?"

...

Benteke's goal instantly aroused the morale of the Villa players, and they began to frequently attack Chelsea's half.

One minute later, Benteke took the ball in the opponent's rib, ready to break into the penalty area again.

At this time, Ramirez followed closely behind him, and was about to be freed by Benteke. Ramirez decisively chose to use a tactical foul on Benteke.

yellow card!

Ramirez received his second yellow card of the match, Chelsea's first.

At the same time, the Villa team got a free kick in the frontcourt.

The penalty spot is a bit far from the goal, and it is not realistic to shoot directly.

Westwood took the free kick.

Drive directly to the middle of the restricted area.

Baker reached the first point and the header flew to the left.

The second spot was taken by Delph.

25 yards from the left outside the penalty area, Delph volleyed the upper left corner of the goal.

It's a pity that it's a little bit high.

Villa missed the opportunity to expand the score.

Watching his teammates struggle on the field, Jose felt even more nervous than himself on the field.

Before you know it, the game has progressed to the 23rd minute.

Uncle Mata took the ball in midfield and took aim at Demba Ba who was about to go forward.

With a direct pass behind the ball, Demba Ba successfully reversed offside.

Single-handedly, Demba Ba got a single-handed chance.

In front of the small penalty area, facing Demba Ba's single-handed attack, Guzan shouted loudly and was about to pounce on Demba Ba.

Demba Ba was slammed by Guzan, and he hurriedly shot, but failed to pass Guzan.

"Villa is stable, and the second door is not bad."

"Although Guzan's number is 22, he was originally the main goalkeeper."

The game continues.

As the Chelsea players slowly entered the state, the rhythm of the game began to be mastered by them.

But Guzan's performance today, so far, is pretty good.

In a blink of an eye, half an hour had passed since the game.

Chelsea once again got a free kick in the front court, and the penalty point was about 30 yards away from the goal.

Lampard takes the penalty.

Gu Zan seized the time to set up the human wall.

Lampard's free kick was taken, and he chose to shoot directly from long range.

The ball went through the wall and flew towards the right of the goal.

Guzan leaps to save Lampard's free kick.

The ball didn't roll very far.

Moses took the lead and made a follow-up shot before the Villa players arrived.

Unfortunately, Moses' supplementary shot hit the right post and the ball bounced off again.

It was still the blue shirt player who made a supplementary shot.

This time it was Hazard.

It's a pity that his supplementary shot was blocked by Guzan out of the bottom line.

Chelsea wins a corner.

Uncle Mata took care of the corner.

Driving directly to the middle road, the threat was not great, and was directly confiscated by Guzan.

After stabilizing the situation a bit, Guzan slowly kicked the goal kick. His game experience is still very sufficient.

The ball was passed to the midfield position, causing another battle between the two sides.

In a ball fight, Benteke hit Azpilicueta with an elbow.

Yellow card.

Benteke picked up the third topaz card of the game.

The referee's law enforcement scale is very tightly controlled.

However, because this game is very important to both sides, the game is still extremely fierce.

In the 41st minute, the two sides had another dispute.

Villa gets a right corner.

Weiman took a corner kick, and the big foot passed to the back point.

On the left side of Chelsea's penalty area, Baker grabbed the first spot, headed straight to the top, and the ball flew towards the goal near the post.

At this time, Cech was still in the center of the penalty area, and was also blocked from the attack route.

Seeing that the ball is about to cross the goal line and fly into the net.

Suddenly, a blue figure flew over.

That's Chelsea centre-back Cahill.

He blocked Baker's header with his body.

"Clatter!" Chelsea fans burst into applause from the stands.

Just when the fans thought the matter was over, Villa's players surrounded the referee Lee Mason.

It turned out that when Cahill blocked Baker's header, his arm touched the ball.

This should be a handball in the penalty area.

However, the referee ignored the complaints of the Villa players. He believed that Cahill's hands did not leave his body, so it was not a handball.

"The chief referee is good, my car can be taken care of by the chief referee."

"What are you talking about? This is a fair judgment."

"Upstairs is right."

Helpless, the game continued.

The first half of the game has come to the final stage.

In the 42nd minute, Ramirez had the ball in the backcourt.

Suddenly, Silas came and snatched the ball from Ramirez's feet, and formed a quick counterattack on the spot.

In desperation, Terry could only fly to uproot Sira.

Terry got his fourth topaz card of the game.

The referee fully demonstrated his presence.

In stoppage time at halftime, Chelsea suffered a thunderbolt.

Abanglaho has the ball in Chelsea's half and Ramires tackles it with his foot a little high.

yellow card!

The referee again showed Ramirez a yellow card.

Originally, Ramirez had already got a topaz card, and now he got another one.

Two yellows turn one red.

Ramirez was sent off by the referee.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Chelsea fans booed the sky.

Historical data show that 10-man Chelsea have never reversed and won in the Premier League era.

"What did the referee do? One goal behind, one less player, the bus is over."

During the intermission, the Villa players finally showed satisfied smiles on their faces.

Jose sat quietly in the locker room. For some reason, he always felt uneasy.

In the second half, Benitez took the lead in making a substitution, and Luiz replaced Moses.

Playing at home and playing one more player, Villa has a lot more confidence.

In the 47th minute, Abang Lahuo broke through the left side of the penalty area, but unfortunately his shot was blocked by Cahill's flying shovel.

In the 52nd minute, Weiman shot from the right side of the penalty area and missed.

Mata cleared the siege immediately, but was cut off by Villa players.

Sila volleyed from the right side of the penalty area, but unfortunately the shot was high.

Then Benteke passed the ball, and Abang Lahuo's shot from the left side of the penalty area went wide of the near corner.

In the 55th minute, Abanglahor knocked back, and Bennett's shot from the left side of the penalty area was blocked by Azpilicueta again with his body.

The ball went over the baseline from the other side of the goal.

The corner kick was taken, and the first point was topped by Chelsea players.

It's a pity that Chelsea's clearance was not far enough, and Delph got it in front of the penalty area.

Unfortunately, Delph's shot went wide again.

Villa's indiscriminate bombing did not score a goal.

In the 58th minute, the referee once again became the focus of the audience.

Benteke raised his leg too high and kicked Terry, who was shown a second yellow card by the referee.

He also accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off.

The presence of both sides reached a balance again.

"There is one more game and the season is over. They sent off with a red card. Can they just go on vacation?"

"Yes."

Seeing Benteke sent off with a red card, Jose finally knew the reason for his uneasiness.

It was Chelsea's turn to fight back.

Hazard crossed the ball from the right and the ball went to Lampard's feet.

On the edge of the penalty area, Lampard flashed Baker and shot with his left foot.
