Chapter 415 The Problem of the Human Wall

"This is Luis Garcia's seventh goal of the season and Liverpool's first in this game. Liverpool is really a strange team. The bigger the competition, the better they play. It was Zhao Yaning who played well against strong opponents, and Garcia also played extremely well against strong opponents in the Champions League, even far exceeding his usual league performance.” Martin Taylor couldn’t help but look at Liverpool’s celebration. Zhu laughed, "Andy, did you expect to see Liverpool like this before the game?"

"Wretched stealing chicken, defensive counterattack? No." Andy Gray was not a Liverpool fan at first, and he spoke very directly, "I thought they would attack. When they played against Arsenal and Chelsea, they didn't Show weakness, since you won't show weakness against such a strong team, there is no reason to retreat against Leverkusen. But... I miscalculated them again."

"Yes, in this game, I don't think anyone would have guessed that they will return to the old way of defensive counterattack." Martin Taylor said, "They all played well against strong teams, and the head coach also played well. He is a Spaniard. Coaches in mainland China are generally not overly conservative, especially in Spain. I thought they would have a beautiful confrontation with their opponents, even if they die, they will die standing up. Playing football in such a wretched way..."

"Benitez's choice is often based on the actual situation of the team." Andy Gray said, "He is still a very conservative person in his bones, not an offensive person. Against Arsenal and Chelsea When he was playing, he dared to fight because the pressure of performance was not high, but when he faced Leverkusen, the pressure was high, and he didn't have a number plate in his hand, so he returned to a conservative state. After all, In the Champions League, he suffered a big loss from Inter Milan - the number of shots was 27-3 but he still lost. It was Toldo who made it, and Benitez who ruined his reputation."

Andy Gray's words were a little harsh, but they were telling the truth.Benitez is indeed not the kind of person who would rather die standing than live on his knees.Although he is a Spaniard, and he was born in Real Madrid, Castilla youth training, Bosque assistant coach Mei Linger's roots are young, but his command style is closer to the Italians. Who uses what to play? Fa, will never be full, and fight against each other for the sake of honor and dignity. [

In the cup match, using defensive counterattack is still the most reliable thing.Especially when the two main defensive midfielders are unable to play, Liverpool's midfielder does not have the ability to quickly switch from defense to offense. Such a team cannot play a sturdy and fast offense, and retreating and counterattacking are naturally their only There is a way out.

This is a very simple reason, just because Benitez has always shown excellent tactical strength, people can't help but feel that he is a coach who is very keen on attacking, but at this time, his choice makes people watching Everyone can't laugh or cry.

What a pragmatic team.

After falling behind by one goal, Leverkusen also reacted to the opponent's counterattack tactics. After a short midfield adjustment, they launched an attack again.

After all, Leverkusen still has a certain strength, at least their frontcourt coordination ability is absolutely excellent.Berbatov was at the time when he was gaining fame at this time, and he worked very hard when he kicked the ball, and his attack also made Liverpool feel a lot of pressure.

In the 17th minute, Leverkusen, who was one goal behind, attacked. Berbatov raised his foot and shot 25 meters away from the goal. The ball was very powerful, but the angle was too straight. Dudek could not take advantage of it. , can only block the ball with both fists, and relying on Carragher's response, this opportunity was not used by the opponent.

But this also made Benitez frown - Dudek couldn't catch the opponent's strong shot, and there were two such shots in less than 10 minutes. If this continues, there will always be opportunities.

But the problem is that Liverpool really have no other choice.

Leverkusen's attack continued. In the 209th minute, they got another excellent opportunity-Fryer on the right kicked the front of the penalty area and gave the ball to Berbatov, Berba Tove kicked back, and Krzynovic who received the ball gave the ball to Ponte at the top of the penalty area. At this time, Ponte had already attracted the hopes of Carragher and Harman, but he was at the front of the penalty area. Passed the ball with his foot and gave it to Berbatov who inserted into the penalty area.

Dudek rushed out immediately, but Berbatov evaded Dudek's save with a smash and kicked the ball towards the empty goal!

Hyypia, who returned to the defense in time, blocked the ball with a kick on the goal line, but this time, Dudek hugged the ball and did not allow the opponent to attack again.

The dangers continued, making the Liverpool fans shout louder, surrounded by the loud and clear never walk alone singing.This is Anfield, and here, the fans will not let the efforts of Liverpool players not be heard.

And soon, Liverpool launched an attack. Riise kicked a pass from the left and sent the ball to Zhao Yaning.Then, Zhao Yaning sent a corner kick, and Berbatov, who was defending back, pushed out of the penalty area. Riise grabbed the first point, but his vigorous blast missed the goal again.

The offense was not very smooth, but Riise found Zhao Yaning, "There is a flaw in their way of playing, have you seen it?"

"What?" Zhao Yaning was a little puzzled.

"When they defend free kicks, the wall hardly jumps," Riise said. "We should try to find opportunities with set kicks."

Set ball?Zhao Yaning thought for a while and nodded.

Soon, Kewell and Biscayne completed a series of cooperation on the left and entered the edge of the penalty area, but when he sent the ball into the penalty area again, he was swept out of the penalty area by Junior.Riise, who was fighting for a header, was brought down by Krzynovic, giving Liverpool a free kick in the frontcourt.

"Remember, their walls don't jump." Riise was beside Zhao Yaning, and said again, "It's a bet this time, we have the advantage of scoring goals." [

Such a gamble is indeed a bit big.After all, free kick free kick, if the wall does not jump, it is almost a fixed target, not simply 01:30.

Generally speaking, when a free kick is taken, the height space for the opponent's wall to take off will be reserved.For a player like Zhao Yaning who likes to score goals with fallen leaves, such prediction and arc control are not a small difficulty.But if it is true that the opponent does not jump over the wall, then wouldn't his free throws be very simple?

It stands to reason that such a mistake should not have happened in such a big game.But Zhao Yaning also had the same impression as Riise, as if they really didn't jump up.Is it a trap, or is it really a loophole?Zhao Yaning didn’t know.But thinking about it, this kind of trap is meaningless, it should be a flaw.

Regardless of him, just try it.

Step back, take aim, and shoot!

The football passed directly over Berbatov's head. Not only did Berbatov not take off, but he squatted for a moment.The football went straight to the goal behind him, stuck to the lower left corner, and got into the goal.

"gooool!!!!!! Liverpool's second goal!!! Zhao Yaning!!!! Direct free kick to the lower left corner!!! Liverpool 2-0!!! The hope of promotion is greatly increased!!! "

Zhao Yaning clenched his fists and hugged Riise fiercely.This opportunity is definitely due to Riise. Being able to score a goal should definitely be regarded as more than half of Riise's credit book.

There was a burst of cheers in the stands for a while. One goal is not considered insurance, but with the advantage of two goals, Liverpool's possibility of winning has been greatly improved.

Gerrard in the stands also jumped up suddenly at this time. He was suspended for this game, but this kind of game is enough to make people happy!

"In this way, Liverpool's advantage will be even greater." Andy Gray didn't know what to say, "It seems that in this game, God favors Liverpool. After 40 minutes, Liverpool was almost beaten. A sneak attack goal, a set-piece goal, and such a kick can win, it can only be said that Liverpool is really lucky."

"You can't say that." Martin Taylor said, "Liverpool's defense has always been very good, and their back line has almost no problems. In this regard, only Chelsea in the Premier League is at the same level as them. Arsenal's inexperience, Manchester United's... Manchester United's defense is outrageous, who knows what they rely on to not concede the ball. Liverpool's defense is very good, they will not concede the ball easily, this is indeed their advantage, and the Liverpool people also made good use of this, their victory was prepared by themselves."

"Furthermore, they have focused on defense for so many years. Even if Benitez is changing the team's style of play, it is not so easy to change. Defense is already something in Liverpool's bones. This style of play makes them play more easily. " Martin Taylor smiled mockingly, "This is Liverpool, no matter what the coach is, he can force you to only want to play defensive counterattacks..."

After scoring a goal again, Leverkusen's players were also disappointed.I conceded one goal, and it was okay to equalize, but I conceded two goals, and it was still in an away game like Anfield, so it would be difficult to get it back.

This damned wretched chicken-stealing tactic!

Until the end of the first half, Leverkusen failed to change the situation.In the second half of the game, they started to attack again. In the No.408 minute, Leverkusen also got a free kick in the frontcourt, but this time, Leverkusen's Schneider was too impatient, and he took it out. A free kick from the goal flew out of bounds.

This ball made the fans in the stands burst into laughter.

"I bet what he is thinking now is that he would rather boo than laugh." Martin Taylor said with a smile.

While the game continued, both sides slowed down in the second half. It was not until the No. 701 minute when Liverpool once again got a free kick in an excellent position at the front of the penalty area that both sides began to get excited.

"We have Zhao Yaning, he is good at scoring and assisting everything!"

The song written by the fans to Zhao Yaning rang again in the stands. Zhao Yaning smiled bitterly, but didn’t know what to do.

Do you continue to bet that they won't take off?Or should we be more careful? [

Regardless of him, there are already two balls in hand anyway.

Zhao Yaning took a step back and kicked the ball up with one kick!

"gooool!!!!!! Zhao Yaning's free kick scored twice!!! Liverpool 3-0!!! Advancement is in sight!!!!"

Looking at Zhao Yaning celebrating the goal, Berbatov looked unhappy: I provoked you, and two free kicks flew off my head?

How do you know that I will definitely get out of the way?
