Chapter 897 Club World Cup

The UEFA Champions League group stage has ended, and Liverpool has no suspense to reach the knockout stage with the first place in the group stage.

Leverkusen reversed Valencia in the last round and had the last laugh.

Valencia, who was the first to smile, went to the Europa League with a bitter face. There have been reports in Spain that Valencia's head coach Unai Bameri has encountered a crisis of getting out of class.

The list of other UEFA Champions League qualifying teams is also freshly released.

The first qualifying team in the group: Bayern, Inter Milan, Benfica, Real Madrid, Arsenal, APOEL, Barcelona.

The second qualifying team in the group: Naples, CSKA Moscow, Basel, Lyon, Marseille, Zenit, AC Milan.

According to UEFA's lottery rules, after entering the top [-], opponents in the league of the same country and in the same group before will avoid.According to this principle, Liverpool has the opportunity to touch all teams except Leverkusen.

When Li Wei saw the name of the AC Milan team, he had a very strong feeling that the bastards of UEFA might let Liverpool and AC Milan play together again, because the topic is too strong!

What did you say?Didn't Liverpool draw with AC Milan last year?Will UEFA continue to stir up cold rice?
Then you underestimate the shamelessness of UEFA, such as Arsenal vs. Barcelona, ​​Arsenal vs. Bayern Munich, etc. How many times have these happened?
But everything is hard to say, at least the opponent is really determined, and it will be known after the UEFA Champions League draw ceremony ten days later.

…………

Back in the league, Liverpool hosts the newly promoted Queens Park Rangers. This is the first time the two sides have met in 15 years.

In terms of record, Liverpool and Queens Park Rangers have only lost one of the last ten encounters. In the other nine games, they have seven wins and two draws, completely overwhelming Queens Park Rangers in terms of record.In terms of home games, Liverpool has four wins and one draw in the past five home games.

The last time Queens Park Rangers won Liverpool was in 1994, and the last time they won at Anfield dates back to 1991, when the Premier League had not yet been established.

Not to mention that there is a big gap in strength between the two sides now. Liverpool is the defending champion, while Queens Park Rangers are just newly promoted.

At the beginning of the game, Queens Park Rangers put up an iron bucket formation. This is also the only way for a weak team to play against a strong team. In fact, no team in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League dares to play against Liverpool.

Li Wei has been prepared for a long time, and this game will play three backs to strengthen the control of the midfield.

In the fifth midfield, captain Steven Gerrard finally recovered and returned to football.He partnered with Vidal and Nainggolan to form a three-back midfielder.The two wingers are Lallana and Thomas Muller, who act as wingers.

On the front line, the tall Benteke partnered with the ghostly Suarez.

In the first half, Liverpool attacked Queens Park Rangers violently, but failed to score.

This made Queens Park Rangers seem to see the hope of taking a point from Anfield, but just after the second half, Liverpool broke the fantasy of Queens Park Rangers.

No.407 minutes, Vidal passed Wright Phillips from the left and made a pass. Benteke made a decisive move forward, attracting the attention of many QPR defenders, but they forgot that Suarez was not decoration.

The football fell to Suarez, who was unguarded, and the Uruguayan striker headed the ball past the edge of the penalty area.

Liverpool 1:0 Queens Park Rangers.

After taking the lead, Liverpool played more patiently, but Queens Park Rangers were confused, and they began to waver.Is it good to attack?Or defend well?
Before they could decide, Liverpool scored again in 9 minutes.

This time it was a typical English long pass. Thomas Müller made a pass from the bottom and Benteke jumped high and scored with a header.

No. 708 minutes, Gerrard announced his return with a ground-breaking long shot.Rewrite the score to 3:0. At this time, although there are still [-] minutes of regular time and a few minutes of stoppage time before the end of the game, the game is actually over.

Queens Park Rangers didn't want to equalize the score anymore, they just wanted to not lose so badly, and decisively played defensively and counterattacked.

Liverpool also don't want to capsize in the gutter. Although it is impossible to be reversed by Queens Park Rangers, it is not a happy thing to concede the ball before the end of the game.

Liverpool's reduced investment in offensive numbers naturally also greatly reduced offensive power.

At the end of the game, Liverpool won the newly promoted Queens Park Rangers without bloodshed.

…………

After the Queen's Park Rangers game, the Liverpool team rushed to the airport the next afternoon and took the club's private jet to Yokohama, Japan.

They will take part in the 2011 Club World Cup.

There are four rounds of the Club World Cup, which are qualifying rounds, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals.

Of course, if Liverpool are really allowed to play four games, Levi will definitely not do it.

As the champions of the Champions League, Liverpool started to participate in the competition directly from the semi-finals.

In fact, even so, Li Wei did not want to participate in this Club World Cup.

Liverpool's schedule is already intensive, but the Club World Cup schedule is even more intensive, and they have to fly to Tokyo, Japan, the other end of the world, to compete.

The reason why Liverpool flew to Japan the day after the game against Queens Park Rangers was not only because of time constraints, but also because of Liverpool's jet lag.

The time difference between Japan and England is eight hours, which is equivalent to 22 o'clock in the evening when Liverpool arrives in Tokyo. This is the time when Levi asked Liverpool players to sleep, but in England on the other side of the world, the time is only two o'clock in the afternoon , You can also drink an English afternoon tea.

But Li Wei has no choice. The World Cup is hosted by FIFA and recognized by the football federations of other big states. In other words, if Liverpool does not participate, it will not only offend FIFA, but also UEFA. .

Fortunately, the Club World Cup prize money is still good.

Winning the championship can get 500 million U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to 310 million pounds, which is relatively high.Because Liverpool need to play two games, which is equivalent to 150 million pounds for one game.

…………

On December [-]th, in the semi-final of the Club World Cup, Liverpool played against AFC Champions Al Sadd. There is no doubt that although the Qatari team dominates Asia, they were immediately blown up against Liverpool.

The final score was 4:0. Suarez scored twice, Neymar shot and passed, and central defender Varane also scored a goal with a corner kick.

After playing this game, Liverpool's attention shifted from the World Cup to Nyon, Switzerland in Europe.

On December [-], the UEFA Champions League round of [-] draw ceremony will be held today!

The time of the lottery ceremony was twelve o'clock in the local area, but when it came to Tokyo, it became nineteen o'clock in the evening.
