A Shocking Comeback

The Reds fans in The Kop stand behind the goal all rose to their feet.

Even Klopp at the sidelines leaned forward, fists clenched, ready to celebrate a goal.

Chen Anno did not hesitate. He swung his right foot to shoot!

At that critical moment...

Gary Cahill suddenly stretched out a foot from behind and to the side, trying to poke the ball away!

But Cahill had clearly overestimated himself.

His foot did not even touch the ball and instead kicked Chen Anno's supporting leg directly!

"Ah..."

Chen Anno cried out in pain and fell to the ground.

Beep...!

Michael Oliver's whistle sounded at the same time.

His finger pointed toward the penalty spot!

"Penalty!!"

"The referee has awarded a penalty!!"

The stands immediately descended into chaos.

Some pointed at Cahill and cursed, some regretted that Chen Anno had not managed to get his shot away, while others cheered for the penalty.

Chelsea's players swarmed over and surrounded Michael Oliver in protest.

"Sir, I didn't touch him! He dove!" Cahill was the first to rush over, gesturing excitedly. "I didn't touch him at all! He fell by himself!"

"Referee, look at him!" Fabregas also rushed over. "He's clearly acting!"

Chelsea's players all spoke at once, pressuring Michael Oliver and trying to make him change his decision.

The second half had only just begun, yet Liverpool's attacks had come in wave after wave, sharply increasing Chelsea's defensive pressure.

If they conceded a penalty now and let Liverpool equalize, the rest of the match would become very difficult for them.

While Chelsea surrounded the referee, Liverpool's players helped Michael Oliver maintain order, separating him from the Chelsea players.

Meanwhile, Chen Anno sat on the ground and unhurriedly adjusted his socks.

His expression was calm.

No one knew better than he did that
