ps, July 3rd, asking for guaranteed monthly tickets~~!!

※※※

No one expected that Liverpool, not the home team Real Madrid, would score first at the Bernabéu.

Even more unexpected was that the goal came from a cross from the wing, which many had previously considered harmless, and a header in the center…

So when Chen Hero headed the ball into Real Madrid's goal, the first reaction of the Real Madrid fans was—foul! That bastard Chen Hero committed a foul by pushing! The referee will definitely blow his whistle to indicate that the goal is invalid, so we have nothing to panic about.

But the referee did not blow his whistle to indicate that the goal was invalid, nor did he give Chen Hero another yellow card, as they had expected.

He did blow the whistle, but he turned and pointed to the center circle.

This is the gesture for a valid goal!

The Real Madrid fans were all dumbfounded…

Liverpool had indeed scored! They took the lead in the away game, taking the lead on aggregate!

※※※

"Hero! Hero! Hero—goooooooooooooooooooooooAL!!!"

The commentator's roar came from the TV, and Liverpool fans in front of the TV jumped up and cheered.

At this moment, half of Liverpool was plunged into the ecstasy after Chen Hero's goal.

"Long live Hero!!"

"Hero is great!"

"What is Real Madrid? We have Hero!!"

On the TV screen, Chen Hero, who scored the goal, raised his arms and roared to the sky. This action made the fans in front of the TV even more excited and passionate.

※※※

When Bale pulled to the wing to cross, Martin O'Neill had already leaned out of his seat, lifted his butt, and stared at the pitch without blinking.

When Chen Hero jumped up, his fists couldn't help but clench tightly.

When Chen Hero overpowered Pepe and smashed the ball into the opponent's goal, all his accumulated emotions were released. He and his teammates rushed out of the coaching bench, waving their arms vigorously on the sidelines and cheering as much as they wanted.

As the head coach, he knew exactly how important Chen Hero's goal was.

It's not just that they lead Real Madrid on aggregate, nor is it just an away goal.

This goal shakes Real Madrid's confidence!

For two years, whether it was the domestic league, the Copa del Rey, or the Champions League, Real Madrid had not lost a game at this stadium.

This game was originally considered foolproof by Real Madrid—playing at home, with an advantage in away goals, and a psychological advantage. How could they lose the game?

Who would have thought that Chen Hero would almost score in the first minute of the game, and now he has removed the word "almost."

Just imagine what kind of shock his goal would bring to Real Madrid? Wouldn't they think in their hearts that they might lose the game?

As long as they have this idea, then Liverpool will have a chance to take advantage of it in this game.

Chen Hero's goal is like a heavy blow to the psychological barrier of Real Madrid players. Maybe you can't see any traces at first glance, but when the hammer is taken away, there are already tiny cracks in the place where it was hammered.

This is just a sign. Hammer it again, and maybe these tiny cracks will get a little bigger. As long as you keep hammering like this, you will always make this seemingly solid and heavy barrier collapse…

This is the greatest significance of Chen Hero's goal—he fired the first shot for everyone, signaling the first shot of Real Madrid's death!

Its significance is no less than the shot in Nanchang City at Lexington…

※※※

Sure enough, after the game restarted, the Real Madrid players who lost the ball seemed very flustered and didn't know how to play.

If they want to attack and equalize the score, they are afraid that their defense will be pierced by Chen Hero first. If they want to defend to the end of the first half, there are still twenty-five minutes left, and it makes them very unwilling to start defending now. In addition, this is their home stadium. If they lose a goal at their home stadium and still defend without attacking, where will they put their faces?

The Real Madrid players are very contradictory, but Liverpool is not ambiguous.

In the following game, they launched a frantic bombardment of Real Madrid's goal, and there were several times when it looked like they were about to score.

If it weren't for Casillas's outstanding performance, Liverpool would have completely ended the suspense of this game…

When the cheers of "Saint Iker" rang out in the stands again and again, it was actually the shame of other Real Madrid players. Because this shows that their performance is too bad, which will directly expose Casillas to the opponent's powerful firepower…

In the first twenty minutes, Mourinho was still writing something in his notebook, but after that, he had already put away the notebook and pen, and then frowned at the pitch.

"Mourinho must be very dissatisfied with Real Madrid's performance during this period…" the commentator said when he saw this.

※※※

Fortunately, Casillas's performance was good enough to keep the score at 0:1 until the end of the first half, preventing Liverpool from continuing to expand their lead.

Obviously, the performance of the Real Madrid players not only failed to satisfy Mourinho, but also made the Real Madrid fans in the stands very dissatisfied.

They originally planned to come here to watch an easy game, eat delicious food, chat with friends, and then cheer for every goal of Real Madrid.

Who would have thought that they would see such a bad first half. It's okay to lose a goal, but the key is the performance of the players after losing the goal, it's like they haven't woken up yet!

When the Real Madrid players walked off the pitch, they heard boos from the stands—these boos were not for the opponents, but for them.

Real Madrid fans cannot tolerate a grain of sand in their eyes. As long as their team does not perform well, they will boo and wave white handkerchiefs mercilessly. Therefore, playing at the Bernabéu is both a motivation and a pressure for Real Madrid players.

In contrast to them, the Liverpool players were all excited when they left the field.

They originally thought they would be in a tough battle at the Bernabéu, but who would have thought that Chen Hero's goal in the twentieth minute made everything simple.

They even had several chances in the first half. Although they didn't seize them, they weren't too annoyed. They all felt that Real Madrid was scared out of their wits by them, and it was only a matter of time before they continued to lose goals. The opportunities missed in the first half will definitely appear in the second half. As long as they seize one, they can push Real Madrid into the abyss!

They walked into the player tunnel while talking and laughing.

※※※

The Real Madrid players sat on the benches in the locker room, facing Mourinho.

The Portuguese coach was furious.

"Your performance in the first half was a disgrace! A fucking disgrace!" he roared at the players, waving his arms.

"Isn't it just losing a goal? What's the big deal? Look at your prospects… This is our home stadium, we are the masters here, we are familiar with every plant and tree here, here, you have the support of 70,000 home fans… I really can't figure out how you can perform as if you have already lost the game after losing a goal? Are you still Real Madrid players?!"

Mourinho was extremely angry. He can tolerate losing the game, but he will never accept losing the game in this way!

"In the second half, I don't want to see your sissy performance again! You have to be tough for me! Remember, this is your home stadium! You are the masters here. Whoever dares to be arrogant in front of you, just slap them hard! You don't have to be responsible for killing them! Here, we are the masters, we are the law and justice! Anyone who dares to infringe on us must die! You must tell those damn Liverpool people in the second half—the reason why we haven't lost a game at the Bernabéu in two years is because we are Real Madrid! What is Real Madrid? Real Madrid is a spirit of never giving up! What if we are one goal behind? What if we don't have an advantage in away goals? Score a goal, equalize the score, and then score another goal and we will fucking overtake them! Away goals are only useful in a draw, we will not give them a chance to compare away goals!"

Mourinho was very excited, because this game is related to his future. He doesn't want his great plan to be ruined by Liverpool.

Moreover, Mourinho has an old feud with Liverpool. When he led Chelsea, he was once very close to the Champions League final. He could have been the first coach to lead Chelsea into the Champions League final, but in the semi-final his Chelsea were "killed on penalties" by Liverpool…

He will not let Liverpool step on his corpse to enter the semi-finals again!

※※※

When Mourinho was roaring in the locker room, Martin O'Neill was kindly praising his players, forming a sharp contrast with the hysterical Mourinho.

"You guys did a great job! You can also see from the first half—the opponent is already at a loss. What we have to do in the second half is to add fuel to the fire under their asses and let them collapse completely! Home court means a huge advantage for them, but it also means huge pressure. Now they are suffering from the pressure. Did you notice the boos from the fans in the stands at the end of the first half? Those were not aimed at us, but at the Real Madrid players… In the second half, we will stick to our own style of play and continue to use this method to deal with Real Madrid. Spanish teams are afraid of this simple and crude approach. As long as we can continue to put pressure on them, not too much, they will be crushed by the huge pressure of the home court…"

Martin O'Neill was very satisfied with the progress of the game and things.

He seemed to have seen the semi-final spot beckoning to him.

The semi-finals! This will be the best result in the Champions League in his coaching career.

This is a tempting prospect…

"In the last forty-five minutes, let us end their myth of being unbeaten at home!"

He waved his hand heroically, with a feeling of pointing out the country.
