Three days after their win over Wigan Athletic, Liverpool returned to action in the Champions League.

Liverpool's opponent this time is Ligue [-] defending champion Montpellier, who has no hope of advancing.

Although there is no hope of advancing to the Champions League final, Montpellier did not give up the game. They still want to fight to see if they can get third in the group stage and go to the Europa League to continue their European career.

Although the Europa League is very tasteless in the eyes of many wealthy teams, in fact it is also very tasteless. The income of a game is not as much as the income of the league. The bonus obtained by winning a Europa League champion may not be worth it. The team at the bottom of the UEFA Champions League group stage has more bonuses.

Some media have studied that if a team also wins the Europa League group stage and wins the championship, then they can get a bonus of up to 90 million euros.However, the 32 teams participating in the Champions League main match have a guaranteed bonus of 860 million euros. If they win a Champions League group match, they can get 100 million euros, and if they tie a game, they can get 50 euros.Assuming that a team gets one win, one draw or three draws in six games in the Champions League group stage, then he will get a bonus of 150 million euros plus 860 million euros, a total of [-] million euros in bonuses.

However, for a small team like Montpellier, the Europa League is quite attractive. Their net transfer fee for a season is often negative, even if it is positive, it is only two or three million euros.

Therefore, in this game, Montpellier defended with all its strength, preparing to score zero against Liverpool, and get a bonus of 50 euros for a draw.It would be great if Liverpool steal one or two goals through defensive counterattacks to win the game on the basis of zero concedes.

Dreams are full, but reality is skinny.

Montpellier's idea is very good, and Liverpool also seems to have secured the place to qualify for the top [-] of the Champions League. Instead of playing with all the main players, they have carried out a small amount of rotation. Wei tried to use the double forward of Klose and Sturridge.

But after Liverpool replaced Suarez in the second half, the Uruguayan striker immediately broke Montpellier's fantasy with a long-range shot with a powerful arc.

Montpellier, who fell behind by one goal, tried to counterattack in the last 10 minutes of the game, hoping to equalize the score.

As a result, the score was not equalized. Instead, Liverpool seized the opportunity to play Montpellier's counterattack. Hazard broke through Montpellier's goal in the counterattack.

This goal also made Montpellier extinguish the desire to counterattack, and they continued to fight honestly.

Li Wei is also not going to attack Montpellier's iron barrel formation. After all, the two sides have no deep hatred, so why bother to kill them all?What's more, even if Liverpool continues to attack, they may not be able to break through the gate of Montpellier, or they will be countered by Montpellier to get a goal back.

In the end, Liverpool 2:0 Montpellier, winning five consecutive victories in the Champions League group stage. This victory also allowed Liverpool to completely secure the first place in the Champions League group stage.No matter what happens to Olympiacos and Schalke 04 in another Champions League group match, even if Olympiacos can 100-0 Schalke 04, it will not change the fact that Liverpool is first in the group stage.

In the end, due to stoppage time, the result of another UEFA Champions League group match, which ended a few minutes later than Liverpool, came, and Liverpool fans could completely ignore Olympiacos, who was second in the group match.

The Greek giants lost 0:1 away to Schalke 04.

Schalke 04 overtook Olympiacos and ranked second with seven points.

Olympiacos is clinging to the back with six points.With one round left in the group stage, no one can guarantee that there will be changes in the final round.

As for Montpellier, they have fully recognized the reality. Their participation in the Champions League this time is just a tour of the group stage.

…………

In the 13th round of the Premier League, Liverpool challenged Swansea away.

Liverpool played very depressed in this game. Suarez was in poor form and was shown a yellow card by the referee for diving.Klose and Sterling hit the goal post again and again, and finally tied Swansea 0:0.

Four days later against Tottenham Hotspur, this season without Bale Tottenham Hotspur's performance has declined a lot.

Li Wei also lined up one and a half main lineups, Suarez was suspended for one game due to accumulated yellow cards, and Li Wei lined up three forwards.

Sturridge is in the center, Bell and Rodriguez are separated from the left and right wingers.

Behind them are Hazard, Modric and Pirlo.

Left back Danny Rose took a break, and Levi made Vidal a guest at left back.

What is worse is that goalkeeper Neuer was accidentally injured in a training session the day before the game, his thumb was swollen, and he was sidelined for at least a week. He has definitely missed the match between Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton.Even playing in the Champions League game against Olympiacos has to be marked with a question mark.

Before the start of the Premier League, Levi regretted letting Mattia Palin go. Compared with Mattia Palin, Danny Ward is undoubtedly much younger.

But now it is impossible for Levi to call Mattia Palin. He can only play the 19-year-old Danny Ward. I hope the central defender can be more powerful and reduce the Welsh goalkeeper Danny Ward to face Totna. The opportunity for Hotspur to attack the group.
