The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 49 Win the championship!

All it took was a look between Leo and Berbatov to pass the ball over the top to the right side of the penalty area.

His passing was really bold, and if he wasn't careful, it would turn into a missed pass that gave the ball to the opponent.

But Leo was keenly aware of the loopholes in the opponent's defense, and Berba also appeared in the receiving position in time.

Seeing that Brother Xiaosha could help the team expand the lead with a shot in the penalty area, an accident happened.

Chelsea full-back Bridge blocked the ball with his hands in the penalty area!
  Handball foul, the referee will directly impose the death penalty!

This was an undisputed penalty, but the Blues players still tried to express their protest, and the referee Halsey didn't want to pay attention to it at all.

Berbatov deceived goalkeeper Cech and easily converted the penalty kick into the lower left corner of the goal!
  Two to zero! Tottenham, who was not optimistic before the game, led Chelsea by two goals in the first half!
  This time the Lily Legion's celebration was even crazier than the previous goal, and Berbatov even wanted to lift Leo up.

Although Leo, who is still growing, has not intentionally gained weight to strengthen his confrontation, under the training of the Premier League team, he is still much stronger than when he first joined the team.

Beiba could barely lift Leo and the two of them fell down together.

"Um, I didn't use my strength just now."

Brother Xiaosha smiled awkwardly, but the small flaws did not affect the elegance of the goal he just scored.

The excited Tottenham fans still gave him warm applause.

Tottenham, which did not have high hopes for the championship at the beginning, seemed to be within easy reach of the trophy.

Unfortunately, too much excitement may not be a good thing. Less than three minutes after Tottenham scored the second goal, Janas fouled Drogba in front of the penalty area and was given a yellow card by the referee.

Then Drogba took a free kick from the center and shot directly into the net from the right side of the goal!
  One to two! Chelsea got a goal back!
  The game is not over yet, they still have a chance to equalize the score!

In the 39th minute, Leo made a direct pass. Robbie Keane leaned on the defender in the penalty area and turned and volleyed too straight. Cech got the ball.

In the 43rd minute, Robbie Keane went straight into the penalty area. Berbatov fell in the penalty area. The referee did not give a penalty kick.

Tottenham still took the initiative in the final stage of the first half, but their continuous attacks failed to score again.

At the end of the first half, Tottenham temporarily led 2-1!

"The game is not over yet. If we keep working hard in the second half, we are not far away from the championship trophy!"

Back in the locker room, head coach Ramos wanted to encourage the team, but not many of his Spanish-speaking team could understand it.

Assistant coach Poyet acted as a translator and translated what he said into English.

How can I put it, this wastes a lot of time, and forget it in normal times. Time is very tight during important games.

Leo thought about it and it seemed that most foreign coaches who coached in the Premier League also spoke English. From the looks of it, this guy probably wouldn't last long at Tottenham.

"We were ahead and the situation was in our favor. When the second half started..."

Tottenham Hotspur adopted a defensive strategy in the second half, shrinking their defense and waiting for opportunities to counterattack.

Chelsea clearly knows what Tottenham's plan is, but they are now behind and forced to attack. This is a conspiracy.

Lampard made a direct pass to find Anelka on the left side of the penalty area, and Ledley King made a tackle.

Leo sent a long pass to the frontcourt, and Bell's left-footed low shot in the counterattack was blocked by the Chelsea goalkeeper.

Tottenham's corner kick was also cleared by Terry's header, posing no threat.

Faced with the attacks of Drogba and Anelka, Ledley King also made mistakes.

King's return pass to Robinson lacked power and Wright-Phillips almost got a chance.

Under the intensive defense of the Lily Legion, it was difficult for the Blues to find scoring opportunities. In the 72nd minute, Chelsea took the lead in making substitution adjustments. Grant replaced Essien with Ballack.

Maybe they wanted to take advantage of the German's excellent long-range shooting ability to rewrite the score.

Drogba got the ball and turned away from Woodgate. His shot in the penalty area was blocked by the Tottenham goalkeeper.

Lampard took a corner kick, but Robinson hit the ball out of the penalty area with both fists.

England's goalkeeper was also in excellent form today, and there were no more unnecessary mistakes like Butter Hand's.

Drogba turned his back to play the ball in the penalty area, and Anelka made a mistake in stopping the ball and missed a good scoring opportunity.

Time passed by, and there was not much time left for Chelsea.

Therefore, the mentality of the Blues soldiers on the field also began to change and became a little anxious.

At the top of the penalty area, Ballack received a pass from his teammate and hit the goal with a heavy kick!
  Still playing too straight, Robinson, who was guarding the goal, steadily pounced the ball under him.

Tottenham's counterattack!
  Like a tiger emerging from its cage, the members of the Lily Legion, who were cowering in front of the goal a second ago, instantly dispersed their formation and pressed forward into the opponent's half.

This sudden change made the Blues, who had besieged Tottenham for almost half an hour, unable to react.

Leo and Bell's collision with the wall broke through Belletti's defense with a one-two, and Leo got the ball near the baseline.

Facing Carvalho who was rushing forward, Leo stopped the ball and turned around, swiping the ball horizontally and cutting it from outside the baseline.

During the entire passing process, Leo's body rotated more than 360 degrees, as if he was dancing on the green field.

The gorgeous gyrations are deeply engraved in the hearts of every audience.

Then he gently passed the ball to the center, and Robbie Keane easily pushed the ball in front of the penalty area and scored!
  Three to one!

Tottenham sealed the victory!

Ramos replaced goal hero Robbie Keane and replaced Hoddlestone.

With a two-goal lead and less than ten minutes left in the game, holding on until the end shouldn't be a big problem.

Kalu and Joe Cole came off the bench one after another, and Chelsea was still trying to strengthen its offense in the final stages of the game.

In the end, Tottenham Hotspur defeated Chelsea 3-1 at Wembley Stadium and won the fourth League Cup trophy in the team's history!

"This is also the first trophy in my career!"

Enjoying the cheers of the audience, Leo and other Tottenham players, led by captain Ledley King, expressed their gratitude to the fans in the stands.

The excited White Lily supporters sang "We Are the Champions" in unison. They had expectations, but when this moment actually came, the excitement in their hearts was still hard to describe.

The camera showed Levi, and the Jews could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Although Levi was scolded a lot recently due to the dismissal of Martin Jol just after reaching the finals, the team's successful victory in the championship still made him look better after all.

If he ultimately loses to Chelsea and loses this championship, then he will really become a complete clown.

Standing on the podium, Ledley King held up the League Cup championship trophy as captain. Amid cheers, Wembley Stadium ribbons fell from the sky.

The last time such a scene happened, Leo was on the sidelines as a spectator, and today he was already in it.

It turns out that this is the feeling of winning the championship, it’s so good...

The bright fireworks were accompanied by the singing of the fans, and Leo was filled with emotions.
