In this game, Qiu Ze's state was really hot to the extreme. Within 10 minutes of the first half, Qiu Ze performed a hat-trick.This guy really made up for the previous round, which made the Liverpool fans excited.

Before the second half of the game started, Benitez replaced Qiu Ze, Gerrard and Fernando Torres, because next week Liverpool will have a double match in a week, and their opponents are still Fiorentina and Chelsea.

Therefore, at this time, the Liverpool team must prepare for next week's game.At this time, the Liverpool team had already won the game and there was no need to expend too much energy for this game, so Qiu Ze and others were replaced.

After Qiu Ze and others were replaced, Liverpool's offense still did not stop.At the beginning of the second half of the game, Arshavin rode through the barrier alone and broke through the goal of the Hull City team with a push, [-]-[-].

Then, after Glenn Johnson and Arshavin cooperated again on the wing, Glenn Johnson sent a cross. Huntelaar, who rushed up at high speed in the middle, blocked the football into the Hull City goal with his chest. Five to zero lead.

After leading by five goals, the Liverpool team relaxed a little, which allowed Hull City to seize the opportunity.The opponent used a quick counterattack to score a goal, saving some face.However, before the end of the game, Hull City gave Liverpool's Maxi Rodriguez another knife, and the guy was far away.

In the end, Liverpool beat Hull City [-]-[-] at home, which not only withstood the pressure, but also widened the gap between them and Chelsea.In this round of competition, they have three more goal difference than Chelsea.

Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City all scored [-] points, splitting four to six places.

By this time, the gap between Liverpool and Arsenal began to widen. They are now six points ahead of Arsenal.The league has only started seven rounds, and the strength of Liverpool and Chelsea can be seen.

Everyone has expected that the Liverpool team can have such a performance, because the strength of the Liverpool team in the past few seasons has been very good, and this season they have basically retained the team from the previous seasons, and there are also strong supplements. , they should behave like this.

However, Chelsea's performance surprised everyone, and Chelsea did not spend much money on signings this season.They also brought in Ivanovic and spent about [-] million yuan, so they didn't sign much.

Moreover, they have changed coaches this season. They did not expect that they would have such an amazing performance, which was simply beyond everyone's expectations.

At this time, the chairman of Chelsea, the rich Russian Abramovich, is very happy at this time. It seems that this time he has done a very correct thing.The introduction of Carno Ancelotti, the results of this guy leading the team is good.

In the league, he has won seven consecutive victories. This is something that Abramovich did not expect. It is really good and great.And in the League Cup, Chelsea also performed very well in the first round, passed and advanced to the next round.

Yes, before this round of competition, England's League Cup this season has already reached the round of joining the Premier League's strong teams.In this round of competition, Liverpool naturally also used a rotation lineup. Their opponent was the former Premier League team, Leeds United, known as the Young Guards.

However, the current Leeds United is no longer the Leeds United of the year. Liverpool's rotation easily defeated the opponent with a score of [-]-[-] and advanced to the next round of the game.

Now, the Liverpool team has to think about the next Champions League and the weekend's top battle against Chelsea.

In this round of the UEFA Champions League, Liverpool will go away to challenge Fiorentina in Italy.Fiorentina is a strong team in Serie A, and their strength should not be underestimated.At this time, Liverpool coach Benitez had a difficult time.

Should the Liverpool team go all out to get rid of Fiorentina in the middle of the week, or should they stay focused on dealing with Chelsea on the weekend and completely kill Chelsea?Yes, at this time, Liverpool's head coach Benitez is having a difficult time.

In the middle of this week, Chelsea naturally also have the task of the UEFA Champions League, and they will also go to the away game.But their opponent APOEL is not very strong, Chelsea will definitely save their strength for the weekend's league dragon and tiger battle.

At this time, Benitez began to have difficulties.After thinking about it for a long time, Benitez still decided to fight for both games. Of course, the game against Fiorentina should be a little more aggressive. After all, this is an away game, and there are many uncertain factors. They may not win if they go all out. , After all, they are going to Italy.

Therefore, at this time, Benitez's heart involuntarily turned to the league game with Chelsea on the weekend.In Benitez's view, it only takes [-] points to qualify from the UEFA Champions League group stage, so it is also feasible to give up one or two games.

Of course, at this time, he did not give up on the match against Fiorentina, they were also going to compete for victory.Only at this time, Benitez put Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres on the bench.

At the beginning of the game, Liverpool's performance was not at a disadvantage, and they even had an advantage, which reassured Benitez a lot.It seems that even the Liverpool team that stays strong can beat Fiorentina. It seems that I was overwhelmed before.

However, the game changed suddenly in the 10 minutes of the first half. Fiorentina scored two goals in the next 3 minutes, quickly leading Liverpool [-]-[-].This made Benitez dumbfounded. He never thought that the game would turn out like this in the end. He was stunned.

The Liverpool fans who came with the team to the away game were also stunned by this result. Really, they did not expect that Fiorentina would be so amazing. They took advantage of two quick counterattacks to break through the goal of the Liverpool team. Liverpool were two goals behind, which left them dumbfounded.

At the start of the second half, Benitez immediately replaced Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres. It could be seen that Benitez still wanted to win the game.However, after Qiu Ze and Fernando Torres came on the field, although they performed very hard and were in good condition, Liverpool's teammates were helpless. In the end, Liverpool encountered Waterloo in Florence and ushered in the first defeat of the new season.

Losing this game, Benitez felt very uncomfortable. Really, he never thought that he would lose to Fiorentina. Now, if Liverpool can't win the game on the weekend, he can't win against Liverpool. The fans of the team explained.

In the other game of this round, the Lyon team was unceremonious in the away game. They beat Hungary's Debrecen team [-]-[-] and ranked first in the group with a record of two wins, while Fiorentina ranked first with a goal difference advantage. The group is second, Liverpool is third, and Debrecen, who lost both rounds, ranks at the end of the group.

After two rounds, Liverpool ranked third, which no one thought of before.Liverpool's performance in Europe is in sharp contrast to their performance in the league, making many people unable to understand what is going on with Liverpool.

At this time, Benitez didn't have the energy to think about it. He has already started to think about the game against Chelsea on the weekend.
