The defensive attention of the Manchester United players was too focused on the defense of Aiello, so Essien, who inserted himself on the right, had no one to defend him.
Evra had to run back to the left of his defense from the center, and was blocked.
Essien's superb technique caught the moment he shifted his center of gravity and slammed the ball to the left, which is the opposite direction of Evra.
Evra had to stop and turn suddenly, but this time was enough for Essien to make a breakthrough.
Changing the angle, he directly raised his left foot and took a stance to shoot.
At this moment, Aiello, who was jogging slowly at the top of the arc of Manchester United's penalty area, suddenly accelerated and ran towards the left rib of Manchester United's defense.
This scared Rio Ferdinand and Vidic.
If Essien, who was swinging his left foot, passed instead of shooting, it would be quite dangerous.
Therefore, the two did not say hello and chased Ai Luo one after another.
What they didn't notice, however, was Lampard driving forward from the center towards the far end of the goal.
At the same time, Essien's left foot firmly hit the football It turns out that his raised left foot was not covering Aiello's movement, but actually shooting.
In the final analysis, he was eager to make a contribution because Cristiano Ronaldo caught his distraction and scored the ball three minutes ago.
Mourinho watched from the sidelines and kept shaking his head.
Although Aiello's forward penetration opened up the defense of Rio Ferdinand and Vidic, and opened up a shooting space, it was a very correct choice to shoot directly from a long distance, but the ball was passed directly to the left rib of Manchester United's defense.
Aiello will be more of a threat.
But what Mourinho never expected was that there would be a term in the world called accident.
This is the saying that a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise.
Essien's eagerness to achieve success did not allow him to use 100% of his long-range shooting skills.
The instep of his left foot did not hit the ideal position of the middle and lower part of the football, but firmly kicked the middle and upper part of the football.
Such a kicking method Only very fast ground balls can be kicked.
Vidic, who was chasing behind Aiello, subconsciously stretched his right foot to make a clearance, but the football moved forward too fast.
The football that was originally shot in the direction of the goal unexpectedly rolled towards Aiello. on the route.
This change almost frightened Rio Ferdinand and Vidic.
The former did not care that Aiello had already entered the penalty area and took the initiative to stick to Aiello who accidentally got the ball.
"Don't give him a chance to kick off" Standing in the near corner of the goal, Van der Sar nervously reminded Rio Ferdinand, who was guarding Aiello, for fear that he would be swayed by Aiello's fake move and the goal would be lost.
Therefore, all Manchester United players on the field subconsciously focused their attention on Aiello.
At this moment, Aiello stretched out his left arm to resist Rio Ferdinand, who was about to step forward.
He touched the ball behind him with the outer instep of his right foot, and the football rolled from the direction of Manchester United's defensive left rib to the penalty spot. direction.
At this moment, all Manchester United defensive players had to focus on the high-speed rolling football.
Especially the blue shirt players who appear in the field of vision.
And this sight also scared their own little hearts, because the rolling route of the football is completely consistent with Lampard's running route.
As long as there are no accidents, then one person and one ball will be rounded near the penalty spot.
"Lampard is unmarked" The director of the Luzhniki Stadium turned the camera to the wing position as the football rolled.
Lampard appeared in the camera and was unmarked.
Sky TV commentator Andy Gray subconsciously shouted.
Van der Sar's head didn't even have time to think at this time.
He relied more on his body's instinctive lateral movement, moving from the near corner of the goal to the center.
Vidic, who had no time to return to his position, had to make a loud noise, hoping to disturb Lampard.
But how could a star of Lampard's level be easily disturbed and miss most of the empty goals?
Plus, he still has plenty of time to look up and observe.
Lampard took a bow and shot without any hesitation, pushing the ball to the far corner with the arch of his right foot.
Due to the limitation of space, Van der Sar's lateral movement to dive to the right became useless.
Lampard's shot hit a ten-corner ball, which is the lower left corner of the goal.
After scoring the goal, Lampard was very excited.
He twisted his waist while running and made gestures to celebrate the goal with his teammates.

Then he ran to the corner flag on the left side of the team's offense before stopping, and Raise your arms high and point your index finger to the sky.
It's a celebration that Lampard has stuck with since his mother's death.
Aiello ran very fast and ran behind Lampard in the blink of an eye, jumped directly on his back, and then waved his fist at the Manchester United fans in the stands.
Their response was, of course, huge boos.
However, the boos did not last long and were suppressed by the cheers of Blues fans and neutral fans in the audience.
Mourinho's reaction was quite enthusiastic.
He once thought that the score on the field would be 1:1 and entered the locker room.
What he did not expect was that just after the regular time of the first half, the score went ahead.
This is a big surprise Going into the locker room with a lead is much better than going into the locker room with a draw.
So he hugged his assistant Boas excitedly.
Ferguson, who was not far away, had a completely opposite expression.
The first time he lost the ball, he was so angry that he kicked the water bottle at his feet far away to vent his dissatisfaction.
Entering the locker room with the mentality of equalizing the score before the end of the first half would definitely have a positive impact on the second half, but the team conceded the goal just before injury time.
Giving Chelsea the lead again was a huge blow to the morale of his team.
Indeed, it was a huge blow.
This is true whether it is the Manchester United players on the pitch or the Manchester United fans in the stands, their expressions are quite confused.
"Oh God, Lampard's goal came so unexpectedly.
It seems that God also wants Chelsea to take the lead before the end of the first half.
Vidic was eager to make a contribution, and subconsciously stretched his legs to directly miss Essien's long shot.
The Axe accidentally blocked Ai's running route, otherwise Rio Ferdinand and Vidic would not have surrounded Ai.
Therefore, Lampard, who was alert and forward, got a chance to face the empty goal."
BBC commentator Lineker said eloquently.
Chelsea TV commentator Clive Walker watched the second slow-motion replay and subconsciously asked: "From this angle, Ai can't see what's going on behind him at all.
How on earth does he know Lampard is behind him?"
Plug in at high speed” In fact, Lampard, who was almost celebrating, also put his arms around Aiello's neck and asked: "How did you know I was behind you?"
Ai Luo said mysteriously: "Secret" The commentators who supported Manchester United always explained Chelsea's goals in one breath.
It was not until they saw the third slow-motion replay that they found the topic.
"The responsibility for conceding the goal this time lies entirely with the right back Brown.
He did not return to the center when Chelsea forward Ai diagonally penetrated to defend the left rib space.
This is an obvious defensive distraction."
The game restarted, and the referee Michel gave a symbolic minute of injury time.
When the time is up, a long whistle announces the end of the first half.
At the same time, the stadium director gave Aiello and Cristiano Ronaldo a close-up shot respectively.
Immediately, the commentator in the stands began to discuss this meaningful broadcast shot.
"With the referee Michel's whistle, the first half was declared over.
During the forty-five minutes of the first half, the core players of Chelsea and Manchester United performed very well.
Ai was in the first half.
He contributed one goal and one assist per game, and Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo also contributed a goal.
Overall, Ai’s actual data is better than Cristiano Ronaldo’s.”
"At the end of the first half, Manchester United trailed Chelsea 1:2.
As for the entire first half, Manchester United still took the initiative slightly, but they were helpless due to Chelsea's incredible luck."
"The expression in the camera is Ai Luo's very natural expression.
He is obviously extremely satisfied with the team's score exceeding the score before the end of the first half.
The goal before the end of the first half came from his magical assist.
If I were to rate it, , Ai Luo, who assisted, scored a full 90 points, because Lampard, who was outflanking, only needed to push the ball gently."

Players from both sides enter the locker room.
The Chelsea players on the leading side were obviously in a much better mood, while the Manchester United players were a bit absent-minded.
Especially Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney.
The two discussed countermeasures countless times before this final, thinking that with their tacit understanding, they could regain the league's lost championship.
What they didn't expect was that God's calculations were not as good as those of man.
They struggled to equalize the score, but fell behind again before the end of the first half due to luck.
This score is completely incomparable with the effort.
Thinking about it makes me very angry.
The Manchester United players who entered the locker room basically lowered their heads, especially Vidic, the background figure who conceded twice in the final.
Although the second goal was due to Brown's defensive distraction and not shrinking to the middle, it was actually because of Vidic's subconscious stretching of his feet that Essien's shot was passed to Aiello's feet.
Of course, there are always surprises.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney both raised their heads high.
They were not dissatisfied with their performance in the first half, on the contrary, they were very satisfied.
The atmosphere in Chelsea's dressing room was quite lively.
Mourinho rarely joked with the players when he entered the locker room.
But enough is enough.
It is okay to relax the players appropriately, but if they continue to relax, it will definitely affect the players' fighting spirit in the second half.
There will be no place to cry then
