ball at foot

Although they beat their opponents 4-1 at home, which basically sealed the victory, but after the away game, Liverpool still did not choose to hold on.

After all, three years ago, it was also against Leverkusen. Liverpool was eliminated by Ballack's long-range goal because of the last time.This time, they were also unwilling to fight for a tie with a deadly defense.

Moreover, at home, it is shameful to have to shrink the defense because the lineup is not neat enough. Two rounds of wretched defense, such a style of play is too lacking in the demeanor of a wealthy family.Now that Gerrard is back and the team's midfield is thicker, it's okay to fight hard.

Anyway, with the advantage of three goals in hand, Liverpool is also afraid.

And in this game, Gerrard made his comeback again. Although Kewell faced another injury and missed the game, but after all, with Gerrard, Liverpool's midfield has hardened. The confidence to attack the opponent.What's more, after he has already played sloppy defense at home, the opponent will definitely not expect that Liverpool will press out to play in the away game. This kind of kick may have a very good surprise effect. [

And in this game, both Ponte and Fryer were suspended, and Liverpool still has a great advantage in this game.

Liverpool still adopted the 451 formation, and Traore was also injured at the left back position. Therefore, Warnock topped the left back position, and Riise continued to play as a full-back.

On the forward line, it is still Milito.Although he is now suspended in the league, he is still the only striker Liverpool can rely on in the Champions League.

However, the game went extremely smoothly: Gerrard used a long pass to create a good chance to score in just 1 minute of the opening. Just scored a goal for Liverpool.

"Diego Milito! Beautiful shot!" Martin Taylor applauded for this goal. After all, after scoring this goal, Liverpool also wiped out the opponent's advantage in away goals. In the following games, If Leverkusen wants to advance, they must score at least four goals.

Liverpool may not be able to do anything else, but they definitely don't concede many goals.Losing four in one game is absolutely impossible.

"Milito has proved his strength with his performance. Now in the league, he has lost the main position. Benitez prefers to use the Spaniard Morientes, and Milito's position is precarious. Now he is working hard. Trying to regain his place and we believe that if he can play like this, it will be a matter of time."

When he said this, Liverpool launched another attack.Garcia made a cross from the right, and Milito succeeded in grabbing the point again, but this time, his shot failed to break the goal.He hit it so squarely that Bout hugged the football.

"He can definitely be the main force!"

The problem of Liverpool's two strikers is now also a problem: Liverpool play a single striker and do not play together.And even if it is a double forward, there is no reason for two high center forwards to start together.Milito and Morientes can only play one, and who will play the main force will become a big problem.

Morientes is more valued by Benitez, and the relationship with Zhao Yaning is also better.When he is on the court, he can help Zhao Yaning play the best role, but Milito has played well in several key games and has received more and more recognition. Which of them can play the main force has become a big problem .

As the game progressed, Liverpool's offensive also began to converge a little.After all, it is an away game, and they are not as good as Leverkusen.

No. At 17 minutes, Leverkusen had a good chance.Their corner kick tactics achieved good results, Berbatov's header was ferried, but this time, Franza kicked the ball high when he was defending.

"It's not bad this time, Berbatov has learned to use his own header," Martin Taylor still did not forget to tease a few words.In the last game, Berbatov achieved Liverpool's big victory, and it is still the butt of people's laughing stock.

As the game progressed, Liverpool also began to gradually grasp some initiative.Although losing Alonso, Liverpool's rhythm control has dropped by a notch, but Harman's defense is also considered good, and the team they met was Bundesliga players. Compared with Serie A and La Liga players, they played well. It is more open and does not require high rhythm control. Now that Liverpool has Gerrard, the midfielder has made up for a shortcoming. It is not a disadvantage to fight against Leverkusen.

After the initial discomfort passed, they gained the upper hand.

No. In 201 minutes, when Zhao Yaning’s pass went to the penalty area, Milito still ran out of the opportunity, but this time, he fell suddenly in the penalty area, which also made the referee run over.

But the referee did not award a penalty, but a flop.Milito has received a yellow card.

"Diego, don't be so anxious." Zhao Yaning patted him, "We are ahead."

Milito nodded, he also felt a little ashamed.But he still hopes to make more contributions.After all, to be able to contribute to the team, after all, his current position is too unstable.

"Diego, play well, there will always be opportunities. Morrow is not a narrow-minded person, as long as you can play well, there will always be opportunities."

Seeing Milito's thoughts, Zhao Yaning said a few more words before running away.Milito is not stupid, but also full of tenacity. He believes that Milito can play and understand.

Then, Riise blocked the goal with a kick from the left side of the penalty area, and Zhao Yaning made a supplementary shot, which was held in Boot's arms again.

In the 27th minute, Gerrard's powerful shot from 25 meters in the front field was blocked by Bute, and Liverpool also got a valuable corner kick.

Bout is indeed a very good defensive goalkeeper Germany goalkeeper, this is true.Although the Italians always mocked that German goalkeepers don't know what positioning is, and they are not at the same level as Italian goalkeepers, at least German goalkeepers can arouse the interest of Italians to laugh at them, which is not bad, like England Goalkeeper, I'm afraid the Italians are not interested in ridiculing...

Zhao Yaning's corner kick was destroyed by Placente, but Franza who received the ball was successfully intercepted by Gerrard.Taking advantage of the confusion caused by the corner kick, Gerrard slammed the ball straight into the penalty area. Garcia outflanked the front point and sent the ball into the goal with a poke shot.

In less than three and 10 minutes, Liverpool's overall score was already 6-1 ahead. There was no suspense in this round of the game.

In the No. 303 minute, Liverpool once again extended the score.It was still Zhao Yaning’s corner kick. This time, it was Harman’s ferry that went to Gerrard’s feet, but Gerrard’s shot was saved by Bout again, but this time, it was Garcia again. The shot was successful.

"In the last game, Zhao Yaning scored twice from a free kick and allowed him to score two goals, but now, in this round of the game, Garcia's goal has surpassed him." Martin Taylor looked at it. Looking at the game, I also felt a little emotional, "German football is really dead. Werder Bremen was slaughtered by Lyon, and Leverkusen was almost killed by Liverpool. German football has really entered a low ebb now. And Liverpool’s frontcourt... Will they die if they play the league seriously? Every time they focus on the Champions League.”

It's not wrong to say this: after German football enters the new century, the stars that can still be played are Kahn, who is old but not aging, and Ballack, who is in his prime.The lack of talents and the lack of attractiveness of the league have caused the current level of the Bundesliga to decline rapidly, and even have a tendency to fall out of the top four.

The decline of German football has made the Bundesliga's competitiveness indeed decline.In contrast, Bayern still has Kahn and Ballack, and can still maintain the strength of the forefront of Europe. Werder Bremen relies on Micoud and Klose, and their strength is about to fall a level, while Leverku Compared with Sen, they are actually worse. Even a crippled Liverpool can be killed in two rounds. They have no temper, so you can know their strength.

In the 52nd minute of the second half, Garcia almost scored a hat-trick.Riise's cross was delivered to Garcia's feet, but Garcia's close shot went wide.

In the 58th minute, Liverpool also began to make substitutions: Biscayne replaced Harman. The total score of 7-1 has already made Liverpool very satisfied.

But just after the substitution, Liverpool's situation was immediately in danger.Berbatov sprinted into the box and was brought down by Hyypia, which earned Leverkusen a penalty.

And it was Leverkusen goalkeeper Bout who came up to take a penalty kick.

"Leverkusen's penalty shooter is their goalkeeper Bout... This is also a rare thing, after all, it is rare for a goalkeeper to come to the frontcourt."

Bout is indeed a very good penalty shooter, but this situation actually illustrates the predicament of German football: Germany, which once claimed to never lose a penalty kick, is now in a strong Champions League team. There is no one in the frontcourt who dares to take a penalty kick.

Bout took two steps back and kicked the ball towards the fans.But the ball that he was determined to win was firmly held in his arms by the flying Dudek!Bout was stunned for a moment and immediately ran towards the backcourt, but at this time, Dudek also threw the ball out, and the person he threw to was Zhao Yaning, who was the fastest.

Bout's running is not slow... But at this time, Zhao Yaning was not interested in running against his opponent. He looked at the position of the goal, and he was still in the backcourt, so he slammed the goal and kicked the ball out!

Such a distance, such a shot...Junior, who stayed in the backcourt to defend, seemed to have thought about the final result of the ball.

The football flew halfway across the field, clung to the crossbar of the goal, and got into the net. [

"gooool!!!!!! Incredible goal!!!! Zhao Yaning lobbed Leverkusen's goal at halftime and succeeded!!!!!! Beautiful goal, perfect goal!!!!"

Zhao Yaning also ran to Dudek in the backcourt at this time, and hugged him to celebrate the goal. At this moment, there is no problem for Liverpool to advance.
