This was definitely a fantastic start. Seeing the referee pointing his hand at the penalty spot, the Liverpool fans who came to watch the game jumped up and cheered excitedly, while Charlton fans protested to the referee with a shocking boo. This article was started by...

The court was in chaos at this moment. Some of Liverpool players rushed to help Chen Yu, some questioned Traore who was injured, some of Charlton's players went to plead with the referee, some of them went to see if Chen Yu was injured, and some of them went to protect Traore. The players from both sides squeezed together, and it seemed like they were going to fight.

The Charlton commentator at the scene also said with some dissatisfaction: "This is a foul. Traore raised his foot too high and touched Chen Yu's face. However, Traore was aimed at someone and he did not mean to hurt people. Charlton was originally much weaker than Liverpool. If you award a penalty, isn't this directly helping Liverpool win?"

The referee looked at Chen Yu's injury. It was not a big deal. He had two blood marks on one side of his chin. However, the referee did not take care of Charlton. His judgment was very decisive. The penalty kick remained unchanged, Traore's yellow card remained unchanged, and he almost gave Charlton's forward Hasselbainke a yellow card.

The penalty result is unchanged, Charlton's players can only retreat, and the remaining Liverpool players are discussing who will punish this penalty.

In Liverpool, the penalty kick was mainly Gerald and Alonso, but today is a bit special because this penalty kick was obtained by Chen Yu, and today is Chen Yu's first start. Out of respect for the second place in the Golden Ball Awards, Gerald and Alonso both gave the penalty kick to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was not polite either. He needed to score a goal earlier to announce his return to the king. Moreover, the penalty kick was not just a gift. There were many superstars who did not score a penalty kick, and there were also many superstars who did not dare to give a penalty kick. This also required courage, luck and a sense of responsibility.

Standing in front of the goal was Charlton's substitute goalkeeper Meer. Because the main goalkeeper Carson turned out to be a Liverpool man, he was loaned to Charlton this season, but there was a restriction at that time. Carson could not play when playing against Liverpool, so Meer served as the starter in this game.

Facing Chen Yu, who never missed penalty kicks, Norway's No. 1 national goalkeeper Mel was very nervous. He kept jumping at the goalkeeper, not knowing whether he wanted to relieve his tension or put pressure on Chen Yu.

Facing this 33-year-old goalkeeper, Chen Yu obviously wanted to put more pressure on him. He deliberately pulled the distance of the run outside the penalty area. After the referee's whistle, Chen Yu ran slowly. He did not start to accelerate until three meters in front of the ball, and directly shot the goal in the middle.

This was an unexpected shot from goalkeeper Mel. The experienced Mel thought Chen Yu would shoot to both sides, so he chose to pounce on the right side because Chen Yu was injured with his right foot. As a result, after he saved it, the ball flew into the net from where he stood.

In an instant, the Valley Stadium became a world of ice and fire. Liverpool fans began to cheer, but Charlton fans stood in their seats.

The goal was scored in four minutes of the start. Although it was just a penalty kick, Chen Yu rushed to the stands and dedicated the goal to Liverpool fans who supported him.

"Chen!Chen!Chen..."

The Liverpool fans shouted in unison, full of gratitude and trust. Chen Yu, who had just played in five games and scored 6 goals, has won their trust and love.

The penalty kick in the opening 4 minutes set the tone for the Battle of the Valley. Then the weak Charlton had to continue attacking, and the three Liverpool strikers gained enough space in the frontcourt.

In the 7th minute, Liverpool almost expanded the score. Finnan made a long pass. Bellamy successfully broke into the right side of the penalty area by offside. The Welshman did not pass the ball to Chen Yu in the middle. After he drifted past Calcurry and Merry, he pushed the empty goal from the right side of the small penalty area, but was relieved by Luke Yang, who returned to defense.

Charlton then also got a chance. Holland made a long pass to the right, Reed broke into the right side of the penalty area and shot at a low angle with his left foot and was saved by Liverpool goalkeeper Renner. The unguarded Hasselbaink faced the empty goal on the left edge of the small penalty area but missed the ball.

As the saying goes, if God does not win, he will be punished. Two minutes later, Alonso passed Charlton's penalty area for a long time, and Chen Yu rushed from the side to the left of the penalty area and shot directly in the air. The ball flew straight to the near corner of the goal.

Charlton goalkeeper Mel had no response to the shot, but just watched the ball fly into the goal net.

2:0

In the 12th minute of the game, Chen Yu helped Liverpool expand the score with a wonderful volley.

This goal was the most beautiful goal Chen Yu has scored since his comeback. After the goal, Chen Yu was excited to make several somersaults, using his excellent flexibility to announce his whistling return to the fans.

The second time there was a cheer like tsunami, and the commentator on the scene was amazed, "...so beautiful! So beautiful! This is a great world wave! The ball can be suppressed and the force is fierce. The goalkeeper has no way to attack such a shot. Not to mention Mel, if it is replaced by Buffon, he can only watch."

Charlton coach Doy didn't expect Chen Yu to score at first, because the defensive player was very close to the ball landing point. As soon as Chen Yu stopped the ball, the player could immediately block Chen Yu's shooting line. But he didn't expect Chen Yu to shoot directly and the ball went in. Doy was disheartened and fell behind 0:2. No matter how confident he was, he knew that Charlton had no chance, and he would win if he lost less.

After this goal, the outcome of the game has been basically determined, but Charlton's players did not want to surrender at their home court. They then launched a fierce attack on Liverpool and sent two defenders to defend Chen Yu, who served as center. However, Chen Yu's running position was very erratic. He was not limited to the penalty area. Not only did he retreat, but he would also switch positions with Kuyt Bellamy on the wing, making Charlton's players unable to defend.

In the 18th minute of the game, Charlton made a big attack, but Darren Bent's pass was cut off by Gerald. Liverpool captain gave Alonso, and Alonso passed it to Bellamy on the wing. The Welsh used his speed to throw away all the defenders and rushed to the bottom line.

This time Bellamy did not shoot himself again. When he saw Chen Yu in the middle followed closely, he passed the ball across the middle.

At this moment, Chen Yu also shook off the two central defenders who were following him. He jumped high and rushed into Charlton's gate like a bomber.

3:0

In just 15 minutes, Chen Yu kicked his head and staged his first hat trick since joining Liverpool.

This goal shocked all Liverpool fans and Charlton fans. Seeing Chen Yu take off his shirt and waving to the stands, even Charlton fans couldn't help but applaud Chen Yu.

The commentator at the scene shouted, "Ah! Chen Chen! Chen scored again! The third goal! Hat trick! A hat trick in 15 minutes! God! Great Chinese! This is the fastest hat trick in Liverpool's history. Chen is really incredible. You must know that this is his first starter after he recovered from injury. Now Chen Yu has scored 8 goals, which is only 2 goals away from Drogba. If Drogba wants to win the best scorer, Chen Yu still needs to agree..."

Benitez was stunned on the sidelines. He knew that Chen Yu had the strength, otherwise he would not agree to the club buying Chen Yu when he was injured. However, he did not expect that Chen Yu was so awesome. Facing Charlton, who repeatedly defeated Liverpool here, he scored a hat trick in 15 minutes. It can be said that Rush, the best scorer in Liverpool history, is much inferior to Chen Yu. Benitez is as happy as a child, waving his arms and shouting at the stadium.

Chen Yu's goal completely defeated Charlton's fighting spirit. In the subsequent games in the first half, Charlton did not organize a good offensive. Because Chen Yu took off his clothes and received a yellow card, Charlton's players' defensive actions against Chen Yu were too big. Benitez was worried that Chen Yu could not suppress his anger and retaliated against his opponent and won the next game. In the fifth minute of the second half, Crouch replaced Chen Yu with Crouch.

When Chen Yu left the court, all Liverpool fans and some Charlton fans stood up to applaud Chen Yu. Liverpool coach Benitez also came here to put a coat on Chen Yu, and his love for Chen Yu was beyond words.

Even though Chen Yu was not in Charlton in the second half, he did not recover. They could not attack or defend. In the end, Bellamy scored another goal and lost 0:4 at home. Liverpool also won the first five consecutive win of the season.

After the game, Charlton coach Doy said helplessly, "When encountering a striker like Chen Yu, no one can win. His goal efficiency is too high. We can't tie him with a chain."

Benitez was full of energy. He proudly declared that "Liverpool has the foundation for the championship, and it is only a world-class striker. Chen Yu made up for this shortcoming. With him, we dared to attack the championship even if we were 14 points behind. Didn't we win 10 consecutive league wins from this time last year? If we can have another 10 consecutive wins this season, everything will be possible."

What made Liverpool fans most happy in the 18th round was not Chen Yu's hat-trick or Liverpool's five consecutive wins, but the leader Manchester United's horse was in a missed. He had been unbeaten in 12 games and lost only one game in 18 games. Manchester United challenged West Ham away in this game. Before the game, no one thought West Ham could score. However, Manchester United did not bring shooting boots today. They made 24 shots in the game. If they finally lost to West Ham, they could not blame others.
