Xabi Alonso was brought down to the ground, and Gerrard didn't have time to protest to the referee, because the referee was waving his arms, signaling Xabi Alonso to get up quickly!
"No foul!!!"
Leightenkinson in the commentary box jumped up!!
"Kante didn't foul!!! Now it's Luton's counterattack!!!"
Benitez didn't have time to worry about Xabi Alonso being tackled either, he was now gathering and greeting Liverpool's defenders to defend quickly!
Arbeloa didn't go up to assist, he just stood in front of Adam!
Drinkwater's long pass wasn't as accurate as Xabi Alonso's, but he did a very good job considering the large space!
Adam White didn't have to slow down, he directly used the outside of his foot to push the ball forward, and then continued to accelerate forward!
Beautiful!!
Gao Bo praised from the sidelines.
The first time he saw Adam, he was shocked by Adam's ball sense, and at that time he even thought he saw Ronaldinho!
On the football field, many times the handling of the first ball can determine the game situation for the next dozens of seconds.
Adam's stop was very perfect, even though Arbeloa was fully prepared, he was still passed by Adam with a change of direction!
Arbeloa just wanted to reach out and foul, but he immediately thought that he still had a yellow card on him.
Hesitating on the field like this, Arbeloa lost the time to reach out!
Adam rushed into the penalty area!!
"Stop him!!!"
Benitez almost jumped up, and the gold-rimmed glasses he was wearing seemed to be crooked because of this!
Carragher rushed up. When Adam entered the penalty area, he didn't dare to be too far away from him, because if he didn't stick to him, Adam could shoot directly!
Mascherano followed the defense all the way to the penalty area. At this time, there were already two defenders in front of Adam!
Benitez breathed a slight sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to relax.
"Don't have any fear in your heart! Even if the person in front of you is famous!!"
Gao Bo's words echoed in Adam's ears.
Carragher and Mascherano, these are two famous defenders in the Premier League, many people may be frightened by the reputation of these two people.
And Adam still had time to think of what Gao Bo said to him at this time.
His eyes were looking at the center, at this time Vardy and Charlie Austin and the team's captain Kevin Keane all rushed into the penalty area!
Adam raised his right foot, and Carragher moved outward for a while.
"Want to pass the ball? Boy!"
Carragher's eyes were fierce and firm. He didn't look at the football, but stared at Adam White.
This trick is very effective, especially when facing some young players. When Carragher stares at the opponent with such fierce eyes, those young people are often made uncomfortable by this look!
But Adam is not included, his eyes looking at the center are a feint, and the movements under his feet are real!
He directly buckled the ball towards the baseline with his right foot, and then pushed the ball forward with his left foot!
Dribbling past people on the baseline in the penalty area!!
Carragher didn't react in time, and Adam pushed the ball past him all at once.
However, Carragher's outstretched foot was not so easy to take back!
Adam's calf and Carragher's outstretched instep collided, and Adam fell to the ground!!!
"Penalty!!!!!!!!!"
Gao Bo shouted from the sidelines pointing at the penalty area!!
The 40,000 Luton fans on the scene also pointed at the penalty area!
"Dive!!!" Liverpool fans certainly wouldn't think it was a penalty!
Benitez didn't think so either!
"Dive!!! This kid is diving!!!"
Benitez jumped up!
"Damn it,
this team is not thinking about playing football properly!! They are always thinking about profiting by falling down!!!!!"
Gao Bo, who was not far away, was furious: "Are you blind? This is obviously a foul in the penalty area!!!"
The two head coaches were arguing on the sidelines, but whether it was a penalty or not still depended on the referee's decision.
The referee hesitated a bit, because he didn't see the situation in the penalty area clearly. Mascherano blocked his view, and Adam's speed was too fast. At the time of the incident, the referee was still rushing back.
The referee looked at the linesman, who had already raised the flag and was waving it.
The referee then made up his mind, he blew the whistle in his mouth, and pointed to the penalty spot!!!
"Penalty?!?!!?!?!"
"Luton got a penalty!!!!!"
Leightenkinson in the commentary box was full of surprise, and Little Redknapp next to him was also full of disbelief.
"If this penalty is scored, Luton will lead by two to zero!!!!!"
Carragher in the penalty area was full of disbelief. He was just about to come up and argue when he saw that the referee had already taken out a yellow card!
Carragher held his head, he almost couldn't believe the scene in front of him.
Liverpool players surrounded the referee, while Luton players were watching the excitement outside at this time.
Some Liverpool players were preparing to come and make trouble for Adam, but at this time Adam had been protected behind by Luton players.
Kevin Keane stood in front of the penalty spot holding the football. Skrtel was in the penalty area. He took advantage of the chaos in the penalty area to grind back and forth on the penalty spot with his feet.
He was preparing to dig a hole for Luton's penalty taker.
Gao Bo on the sidelines clapped vigorously.
"Beautiful!!!"
The coaching staff behind him also rushed out raising their arms!
"Liverpool is in trouble! Who would have thought that the plot of this FA Cup final would be like this?"
Leightenkinson calmed down a little, because this was just a penalty after all, the climax was when the penalty was taken!
Kevin Keane stood in front of the penalty spot holding the ball. Some Liverpool players tried to come and interfere with him, but Vardy and others surrounded Kevin Keane, and any Liverpool players who wanted to come over were pushed away by them.
Before taking a penalty, the players must first ensure that the penalty taker has time to adjust their breathing and state.
Under the protection of his teammates, Kevin Keane was not interfered with in any way, and the referee quickly drove the other players out of the penalty area. After ensuring that only the goalkeeper and himself were left in the penalty area, Kevin Keane put the ball on the penalty spot.
He quickly discovered the big pit on the penalty spot, but he didn't care. Wembley Stadium had been watered before the game, so the field was a bit soft now. Kevin Keane rubbed the ball on the penalty spot, smoothing out the big pit that Skrtel had made.
Then he put the ball on the penalty spot, stood up, took a deep breath and started to retreat.
He now has the best chance to help the team extend the score!!
All he needs to do is to defeat the person in front of him!
Liverpool's goalkeeper, Reina!
Kevin Keane has not played in the Premier League, he has experience in the Championship, and he has also played in League One for a few years. As Luton was relegated to League Two, Kevin Keane did not go their separate ways like other players, but chose to stay at Luton.
Kevin Keane was born in Luton. He grew up in Luton's simple youth training academy since he was a child, and then represented Luton's first team at the age of sixteen - he is the holder of Luton's youngest goal record.
He has gone from being in his prime to being a veteran in his thirties. In his more than ten years of professional career at Luton, Kevin Keane is already preparing to spend his entire professional career here!
One person, one team...
Such perseverance does not only appear on those big teams. In many small teams like Luton, they also have their own heroes.
Kevin Keane is Luton's hero. No matter how well Adam performs, no matter how well Vardy performs, Kevin Keane's position is unshakable - he is the team's captain, he is the leader, and he has dedicated his entire professional career to this small city team located around London.
If Kevin Keane's choice to stay was out of love for the team at that moment, then now, Kevin Keane is completely pursuing the peak of his professional career!
What could be more exciting than winning the FA Cup?
In front of the penalty spot, Kevin Keane thought a lot, but in the end he still put all the distracting thoughts out of his mind.
Kevin Keane took a deep breath, and when the referee's whistle sounded, he immediately ran up!
He didn't look at Reina's tricks on the goal line to try to interfere with him, he had already thought about which side to kick it to!
Taking a penalty is actually a psychological game!
Kevin Keane rushed to the penalty spot, and then directly shot with force!
Few people would choose this way of taking a penalty, but Kevin Keane did it anyway.
This is Kevin's personality.
Simple!
Direct!!
A blast from the penalty spot, the football rushed into the net from the upper right corner without any suspense!
Reina didn't even have time to react!
When the football was bouncing on the goal, the scene seemed to have not reacted yet.
One second later, cheers rang out...
