Chapter 1 Chen Hero Scores

Mario Gomez was the most unconvinced person after Chen Hero scored. He and Chen Hero were of similar height, and it was said that their playing styles should be similar, but in reality, they were completely different.

Chen Hero was much better and more versatile than Gomez.

But Mario Gomez was not convinced; he felt that he was no worse than Chen Hero.

He was also a player who could score more than thirty league goals in a season, and the total number of goals in all competitions was forty or fifty. Why could Chen Hero become a top star, while he could only be considered a first-rate player?

He wanted to prove himself. There was no better way to prove it than scoring in a game against Liverpool.

Last season, in the clashes between the two teams, his away goal gave Bayern Munich the opportunity to advance at home. Back at home, he scored again to open the scoring for the team, opening the door to victory and saving the team.

Now, it was his turn to stand up and save the team once again.

After the game restarted, Mario Gomez kept looking for scoring opportunities.

However, in this game, Pepe and Skrtel put a lot of pressure on him, especially Pepe, who followed him almost every step of the way, making him feel very awkward.

This center-back, who didn't have a good reputation, was very tenacious and indeed defended very well.

He tried his best, but he couldn't get rid of Pepe's close marking. Coupled with Skrtel, the two of them defended him tightly.

Although Mario Gomez failed to score, his desperate pursuit of scoring opportunities attracted Liverpool's attention. The focus of the defense shifted to him, and naturally, they couldn't take care of the other Bayern Munich players.

So, in the thirty-seventh minute, ten minutes after the goal was conceded, Bayern Munich equalized the score. The scorer was Thomas Muller. And the reason he scored was precisely because Liverpool's defense was focused on Mario Gomez, ignoring the defense against Thomas Muller. Muller seized the opportunity to break into the penalty area and completed the goal.

The Allianz Arena finally regained its vitality, and Bayern Munich fans erupted in huge cheers for the goal.

This time, their voices did overwhelm the Liverpool fans, but the Liverpool fans were also smart enough to remain silent at this time. Their throats also needed to rest. They had roared too fiercely before, and now they had to recover.

As for conceding a goal, they were all rational. No one thought that Liverpool could easily defeat Bayern Munich away from home, scoring many goals and not allowing Bayern Munich to score a single goal. If this team was Munich 1860, they might be able to do it.

So, conceding a goal was not a big deal.

Not only them, but even the Liverpool players on the field didn't take it seriously. Conceding a goal was originally within their expectations, and they were mentally prepared, so it wasn't a big deal.

In fact, after Chen Hero scored that away goal, the pressure on the whole team was gone, and they felt relaxed.

In any case, they had an away goal, and they had completed more than half of the task.

When the two teams played against each other last season, wasn't it because Bayern Munich had a psychological advantage because they had a goal away from home? So after returning to the home court, they relaxed and scored a goal as soon as they came up. And Liverpool were a little nervous because they let the opponent have an away goal, which eventually led to tragedy...

Now they had successfully transferred the pressure to Bayern Munich.

They were not in a hurry at all.

※※※

Although most of Liverpool's players were not in a hurry, feeling that most of the task had been completed, Chen Hero didn't see it that way.

He was here for revenge!

What is "revenge"? If you only score one goal, but in the end, you still let the other party retreat completely, what kind of "revenge" is that?

So this game must be won!

From the beginning, he didn't care about away goals at all. As long as he won the opponent, he didn't have to worry about such minor details as away goals!

If Bayern Munich were allowed to go to halftime with a draw, it would be his failure.

Because this draw would increase the opponent's confidence, which would cause the team to encounter stubborn resistance in the second half.

Chen Hero not only wanted revenge but also wanted to win this game at the smallest cost. If he paid an extremely heavy price to win a game, what would be the point?

Chen Hero was not willing to do things like killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of his own.

So, although time was tight, he wanted to completely destroy Bayern Munich in the first half!

Last time at your home, didn't you lead us by two goals in the first half? Now I want you to taste the feeling of being led by others at the end of the first half in your own home!

In the forty-fourth minute, Liverpool got their first free kick of the game, thirty-five meters from the goal, slightly to the left.

Bayern Munich paid great attention to defense in this game, trying not to commit fouls in dangerous areas, because they knew very well that Chen Hero, Bale, and Gerrard were all free-kick masters. And the best way to break through a dense defense was with set pieces.

So they were all very careful.

But no matter how careful they were, it was impossible not to commit a single foul in a game, right? That would mean their defense was too loose.

They could only try to push the location of the foul outwards, as far away from the goal as possible. However, thirty-five meters still couldn't make them feel at ease, because within forty meters was still Chen Hero's effective range.

So when the referee judged Bayern Munich to have committed this foul, the Bayern Munich players were very excited and went forward to argue with the referee. But doing so couldn't change the result of the penalty. Besides expressing their anger, they were just wasting time.

After Chen Hero placed the football, he waited to watch the show.

After wasting a minute, the Bayern Munich wall was finally set up.

Neuer was very nervous, constantly directing the wall in front of the goal, and it had to be built according to his requirements, meticulously, without deviating by a single point, completely blocking the near corner on the left.

Only after the wall was built completely according to his requirements did he return to his position.

Chen Hero did not attack him by surprise but waited for the wall to be fully built and for him to return to his position before turning to look at the referee.

The referee stepped back and blew the whistle in his mouth.

Chen Hero began to run up and then kicked the center-lower part of the football. The football rose into the air and flew towards the wall completely without spin!

This was the signature Chen Hero free kick, at least for now.

"Here it comes! Hero's falling leaf ball!"

The commentator shouted.

The Bayern Munich players who built the wall saw the football flying towards them and quickly jumped up hard, hoping to block the football with their heads.

Especially players like Mario Gomez, who were one meter eighty-nine tall, could increase the difficulty of the opponent taking a free kick by standing there, not to mention that he jumped up with all his strength, unless the football didn't pass by him.

But this time, the football seemed to be coming for him.

Mario Gomez was overjoyed and jumped up with all his strength. He even felt that his vision could be on the same line as the football in the air...

Then he stretched his neck upwards with force, trying to lengthen it as much as possible, hoping to block the football.

At the same time, his vision was only following the football.

When the football flew over, he didn't even blink. He just watched the football get closer and closer to him, almost hitting his face!

He finally couldn't help but close his eyes, and at the same time, his facial muscles tightened, waiting for the impact to come.

But nothing happened. When he opened his eyes again, there was nothing in front of him.

At the same time, huge boos and shouts rang out in the stands.

He looked up and back, but after all, he couldn't completely turn his neck over, otherwise, he would be finished...

Fortunately, his brain reacted quickly enough. If he couldn't look back, then he would turn his head!

He just happened to see the tail of the goal process...

He saw Neuer rising into the air, stretching out his hand, and pouncing toward the football. The whole movement was very stretched and beautiful. Just looking at the movement could make people feel refreshed.

But a scene that destroyed the atmosphere came.

The football flew past his fingertips and plunged into the net.

This was the worst result...

That bastard... scored again!

※※※

"Hero!!!" The English commentator stood up directly from his seat. He knew very well what this goal meant.

Two away goals, leading the score! There was no better first half than this!

The Bayern Munich fans in the stands were silent again, and the voices of the Liverpool fans stubbornly broke through the obstacles and occupied the entire stadium!

"Hero!!!"

"Hero!!!"

"Hero!!!"

"Hero—!!!"

Everyone shouted hoarsely, even if their voices were hoarse.

Chen Hero rushed to the bottom of the stands where the Bayern Munich fans were gathered and waved his fist at them again.

I'm here for revenge, try to stop me if you can!

He was soon drowned by the Liverpool teammates who swarmed in. Everyone surrounded him, patting his shoulders and back hard. They were as excited as the fans in the stands.

"Liverpool took the lead again at the end of the first half! This is a goal worth a thousand gold!"

"It's Chen Hero again! It's him! He scored twice in the game!"

"Liverpool can now enter the locker room with a lead, and Bayern Munich's days will not be easy! They, who are based on defense, conceded two goals in the first half. What will they do in the second half? Attack? Liverpool will seize the opportunity to score more goals. Don't attack? If this score is maintained until the end, Bayern Munich will still lose!"

The TV broadcast gave Bayern Munich coach Magath a close-up shot. The Iron Coach now looked pale.

He now knew very well that this Liverpool was indeed no longer the Liverpool he saw last year...

Bayern Munich, the situation is critical!
