Chapter 257 The final sprint ([-])

The elimination of Juventus was unexpected by everyone, whether it was Liverpool fans, Bianconeri fans, or other fans.Everyone believes that although Liverpool is very strong, at most it will only bring some troubles to Juventus. It is impossible to beat Juventus unless it is luck.

However, Liverpool's tenacity told everyone that our Liverpool team is also a strong team. No matter how strong you are, if you underestimate us, you will pay an unbearable price.Juventus, in particular, paid a huge price for their arrogance, which was to end the Champions League schedule prematurely.

This situation made the Juventus executives very angry. You must know that participating in the Champions League is just for the championship, and more importantly, every time you advance to a game, the Juventus club can get a lot of broadcast fees.Now that Juventus was eliminated by Liverpool in the first round like this, how can you say that the senior management of Juventus is not angry.

But the fact is that no one can change it.With Liverpool's successful elimination of Juventus, all the rich and powerful teams aiming at the Champions League immediately included Liverpool as their competitors. After all, being able to eliminate the mighty Bianconeri, no matter how lucky it is, is itself a manifestation of strength.

Just like the Chinese national team, if you play against Juventus, as long as you are not a fool, you will know who wins and who loses.You seem to challenge others, but you also have to see if you have the qualifications.

As the major giants listed Liverpool as their competitors, they began to study Liverpool's games, especially how Liverpool eliminated Juventus' games.Immediately, all the rich and powerful teams realized that Liverpool had no luck in knocking out Juventus. If they insisted on finding a reason, it would be that Liverpool is suitable for tough battles.

This conclusion immediately made all the giants feel lucky, because Juventus' premature exit told them all that Liverpool should not be underestimated.All the head coaches of the giants feel very fortunate. Fortunately, they regarded Liverpool as their competitors prematurely and began to understand Liverpool.Otherwise, when my team meets Liverpool, I am afraid it will be like Juventus, dying for no reason.

But not everyone is lucky, at least Dortmund's head coach feels very depressed, because Dortmund has successfully defeated its opponent and advanced smoothly, which means that Dortmund's next opponent is Liverpool.Although I know that Liverpool is currently very strong, not easy to mess with, and their quick attack tactics are very sharp, but God did not leave Dortmund with too much preparation time, because the time for the match between Liverpool and Dortmund has quietly arrived.

Liverpool is also having a hard time. Although the powerful Bianconeri have been eliminated, the strength of Juventus is still clearly placed there. Although Liverpool was lucky and successfully advanced, the players consumed too much physical energy during the game, which made Liverpool encounter various difficulties in the Premier League.

George, Irving, Kewell and others have consumed too much physical energy and have already started running in the league. Similarly, Liverpool's midfield and backcourt players are not having a good time.

If it wasn't at this time that Husky started to explode, showing his demeanor as the number one center forward in the UK, and kicking his head with his head, I'm afraid Liverpool really can't guarantee that they can continue to stay at the top of the rankings.

At this time, every time he saw Heskey's assists and goals, Lao Bei couldn't help sighing. Fortunately, Heskey was not sent away in the winter transfer market. Otherwise, I am afraid that Liverpool will start to collapse at the last moment of the league as usual.

Seeing the exhausted main players and the substitute players, regardless of their game experience or their own strength, Lao Bei couldn't help sighing. It seems that after the league is over, it's time to buy some players to increase the team's substitute strength.

You have to know how many Premier League games, among the substitute players, if it wasn't for goalkeeper Kirkland's high jump to resist, if it wasn't for Yepes sitting in the defense line, if it wasn't for veteran Smicer's organization of offense, if it wasn't for Heskey's drug-like outbreak, I am afraid that Liverpool would really collapse.

Although Dortmund, like all Bundesliga powerhouses, is in a very embarrassing situation, that is, to become a talent training base for the Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich, but Dortmund's strength is still very strong. At least whoever meets Dortmund will not regard Dortmund as a master who is easy to bully.

Dortmund's main defender Warnes is still Dortmund's anchor. It can be said that Dortmund was able to successfully defeat CSKA Moscow, especially in the away game, and Warnes contributed a lot.

At the same time, beside Warnes, there is Metzelder, who is known as Germany's future star. This is Dortmund's key training. Warnes' successor, relying on his strong body, has gradually become another Dortmund's pinnacle.

At the same time, Metzelder's good buddy, Kyle, the defensive core of the midfield, is also an important player for Dortmund, because Kyle can not only become Dortmund's first line of defense in the first place, but also is very threatening when attacking.

Of course, when it comes to the core of Dortmund's midfield attack, it is definitely the Czech Rosicky. His outstanding footwork and gorgeous dribbling make Rosicky the core of Dortmund's offensive.

At the same time, at the top is Kohler, the Czech who is currently the highest in world football and has the title of "dinosaur".Although the height of 2 meters makes Kohler very slow, it also gives Kohler a strong body and excellent header ability.Sometimes Kohler doesn't even have to jump, he can use his strong body to grab a lower point and head the ball into the goal, which shows Kohler's lethality in the penalty area.

But Dortmund is just Dortmund after all, not Bayern Munich. Although it is very strong, it is nothing to Liverpool.No matter how strong Dortmund is, it is not as strong as Juventus. Playing Dortmund is better than playing Juventus.

In this case, George came to Germany again with the team, and came to Dortmund's home stadium, Westfalenstadion.More than 5000 seats have been slowly filled by fans. All Dortmund fans want to see at home how their team abused Liverpool from afar.

The match between Liverpool and Dortmund also attracted the attention of many people. Compared with other Champions League matches, the match between Liverpool and Dortmund, two teams of equal strength, obviously attracted more attention.After all, as long as they are fans, they like to see a close game, not a one-sided game like other games where the rich and the weak meet.

Although Dortmund's strength is not as good as Juventus, Dortmund still brought a lot of trouble to Liverpool, especially the tactics set by Dortmund due to the characteristics of its internal players, which made Liverpool players' heads bigger.

Just after the start of the game, Dortmund gave Liverpool a blow and told Liverpool that it is not an easy task to beat us.

In the 4th minute of the game, Rosicky dribbled the ball to Kohler in the penalty area. Although Hyypia was already desperate, Hypia had no choice but to push Kohler because of the physical gap.

After receiving the pass from Rosicky, Kohler headed directly to the goal, but the power of the ball was not very strong, so Dudek got it easily.

Afterwards, Liverpool stepped up their defense against Rosicky. If you can't defend against Kohler, I'll just guard against you, the passing head office. I don't believe that Kohler really ran outside the penalty area to catch the ball, and then played with his feet to break through and shoot.

Liverpool crucified Rosicky, at this time, Kyle stood up again.With outstanding foot skills and a precise long pass, Kyle's ball finds Kohler, the lighthouse in the penalty area, every time, and Kohler grabs a lower header every time.If it weren't for Hypia's hard work, I'm afraid Kohler would have been able to score a goal.

Liverpool's defense was depressed, and the offense was also uncomfortable. Relying on his strong body, Metzelder kept sprinting left and right, like a madman, arresting whoever gets the ball.Not to mention, Metzelder's stalking defense really made George and Owen suffer.Passing? It seems that I can break through Metzelder. I really chose to break through and found out that Metzelder, who is tall in stature, is not slow to shoot.

But even if he breaks through Metzelder, behind Metzelder, there is still a very experienced Warnes in ambush.It seems like Metzelder's firefighters, as long as Metzelder doesn't defend anyone, Warnes is the first to rush to make amends.

Fortunately, the core of Dortmund's offense was initiated with Kohler as the center. Although Liverpool could not score a goal, it did not give Dortmund any chance.

Hypia defended Kohler, and Carragher on the side was ready to help at any time. In this case, Kohler had no choice. After all, Kohler is the most traditional post center in the world. Under the care of Hypia and Carragher, Kohler felt that it was so difficult to score a goal for the first time.

You must know that playing football is not only about having a body, otherwise, Kohler, who is 2 meters 02, will probably smash the ball into the goal every game with his body, which is the tallest in the world football.This is of course impossible, which shows that headers also require technology.

This is like the little man Gerd Muller who created an era for Bayern Munich. He was very short in stature, but he was indeed the most terrifying header player in world football at that time. Even Klinsmann also called him his idol. I was able to have such excellent heading skills because of the influence of Gerd Muller.

You must know that Muller created one history after another in the Bundesliga. The record of attacking 40 goals in a season has not been broken so far. 427 Bundesliga games, scoring 365 goals, how terrifying is this efficiency. (Of course, I'm talking about the little guy Gerter Müller, not Andres Müller, although both are very good. But the former is a striker, the latter is the core of the midfield.)
In the end, thanks to Irving's successful one-handed goal against offside in the 19th minute of the second half, Liverpool finally fought hard at Dortmund's home court for 10 minutes and gained a one-goal lead.

With a one-goal lead, Liverpool successfully returned to Anfield. When they ushered in Dortmund at home, Liverpool did not give Dortmund any chance. Dortmund finally understood why the Premier League team would call Anfield the home of the devil.That's because Liverpool can fully explode at [-]% combat effectiveness at Anfield, and this season, Liverpool's record at home is definitely the first in the Premier League.

In the end, Liverpool sent Dortmund back home with a total score of 3:0 by virtue of Owen and Kewell's two goals.

At this time, the quarter-finals of the Champions League have been produced. In the next round, Real Madrid will play against Liverpool, AC Milan will play against Arsenal, Barcelona will play against Bayern Munich, and Inter Milan will play against Manchester United.

It can be said that this time the Premier League has won a complete victory, and there will always be three more teams entering the quarter-finals, while La Liga, the duo that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, is proud of the Champions League.It can be said that apart from Juventus, which was eliminated by Liverpool, the teams that entered the quarterfinals basically have no problems, after all, their strength lies there.

However, Serie A fans still think that Liverpool was lucky and eliminated Juventus through shit luck. Otherwise, the current top eight situation must be that Serie A has three teams, while the Premier League has only two teams.

But when Lao Bei heard the report from the Italian media, he curled his lips in disdain, luck, don't you know that luck is also a very important part of the game.Lao Bei understands that this is the Serie A fans looking for reasons for themselves, and they still want to maintain the Serie A league that was once known as the number one in Europe.

Your Serie A used to be the best league in the world, with a large number of stars. The team in Serie A is also very strong, and it has the title of a small world.But it is different now, the world is developing, Serie A has declined, and now it has entered a situation where heroes are fighting for hegemony. Who will cry and who will laugh depends on our own means.

Thinking of this, Lao Bei couldn't help looking at the scenery outside the window, and his mind couldn't help but fly to Arsenal, Liverpool's last competitor on the way to the championship the day after tomorrow.

"Hey~George, the game against Arsenal is the day after tomorrow. You know, it's the first time in so many years that I'm so close to the Premier League champion." On Liverpool's training ground, the Liverpool players who were a little tired from training were sitting on the lawn and chatting boredly.

"Hehe, brother Carragher, don't worry, all of us will not be soft-footed. You must know that we are also Liverpool players, and you are not the only one who wants to win the championship!"

Hearing what Carragher said, George couldn't help laughing. Obviously, Carragher attached great importance to the match against Arsenal the day after tomorrow.In fact, it is right to think about it. In the game between Liverpool and Arsenal, if Liverpool loses, then Arsenal will take the initiative. As long as there is no disappointment in the last few games, then the Premier League champion this season will belong to Arsenal.

The same is true for Liverpool. If they beat Arsenal, then Liverpool will be able to close the gap with Arsenal. After Manchester United has completely lost the data to compete for the championship, Liverpool and Arsenal are left.

As long as they get rid of Arsenal, the gap between Liverpool and Arsenal will be five points. Although the gap of five points is not very big, for Liverpool, it can basically be said that one hand has already touched the championship.

To put it bluntly, the coaching between Arsenal and Liverpool is a six-point game. If Liverpool loses, they will lose the initiative to compete for the championship. We also need to look at Arsenal's face and pray that Arsenal will make mistakes in the league and be upset by their opponents and draw. However, this situation is basically impossible.

If Liverpool wins, it means that Liverpool has firmly grasped the initiative, and it can even severely damage the morale of the entire Arsenal team, making Arsenal completely lose the idea of ​​​​competing for the championship.In this way, it is even more secure for Liverpool to win the championship that they have not tasted for more than ten years.

"Yes, George is right, Carragher, don't worry, all of us want to win the championship. In short, in the game the day after tomorrow, we must teach Arsenal a good lesson. If we kill Arsenal, we will be the champions." Seated as the captain, Hyypia saw that everyone's interest was very high at this time, and immediately waved his fist and shouted in encouragement.

"Kill Arsenal, we are the champions!" Encouraged by Hyypia, everyone couldn't help standing up and shouting.
