ball at foot

After defeating Villa, Liverpool's next opponent is Reading. The way dominated the trend of the league championship. ) The injuries of Petr Cech and Cudicini were the biggest reason why Chelsea withdrew from the championship early this season, and Reading also became famous early because of this game.

In this game, Liverpool's formation was adjusted again: they changed to play 442, with Dirk Dirk and Milito acting as double forwards, while Zhao Yaning and Gerrard were stretched to the two sides.

The game was not very difficult, less than 10 minutes into the game, after receiving a pass, Dirk Dirk was near the penalty area and scored Liverpool's first goal.

"It's getting better and better!" Zhao Yaning patted Dirk, and Dirk bowed his head a little shyly, "This ball is really fooled..."

Whether it's a trick or not, it's good to enter.Zhao Yaning didn't pay attention to so much anymore, but led the team again and launched a new round of attacks. [

Soon, Liverpool expanded the score. After Zhao Yaning's free kick entered the penalty area, he immediately fell sharply.This kind of falling leaf ball has always been a nightmare for defenders, and this time is no exception.Although the ball didn't hit the goal directly, it was blocked by the defender's panic for the top.

Shortly after the start, Liverpool had a 2-lead.Zhao Yaning did not relax because of this. He continued to try to pass the ball to the double forwards in the penalty area, hoping that the two of them could score more goals.

And such a pass, in the second half, achieved results.Zhao Yaning's kick went straight and passed accurately to Milito's feet, and Milito kicked back and gave the ball to Dirk.

With a shot from close range, Dirk added another goal for himself.

"Diego, you did a great job!" Zhao Yaning was a little surprised at this time, and also joked, "I didn't expect you to pass the ball. Aren't you afraid that he will replace your main shooter?"

"He, take my place?" Milito looked at Kurt and shook his head slightly, "Joy, stop joking, how can he replace me? Is it possible?"

This made Zhao Yaning have something to say.Indeed, No matter how you look at it, there are some pitfalls in Dirk's skills... Although he is also a striker, Milito's technical characteristics and Dirk's technical characteristics are completely different. Unlikely to replace the position of Dirk.Milito was worried at the beginning, but now, he doesn't care at all.

But this situation is the best. The two forwards have no pressure to compete, but they have the idea of ​​cooperation. What else is better than playing like this?

However, just when Liverpool thought that the overall situation of the game was settled, an unexpected situation happened: Sonko collided with Reina during a rush to the top, and the two rolled together.

This made the Liverpool players all rush over-other times Reina fell and everyone would not care very much, but Reading is different from other teams. They have a criminal record, and Cudicini was injured like this.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, there's nothing... really nothing! Don't 'touch' me!" When Reina was supported by his teammates, his footsteps were still a little unsteady, which made Gerrard lift his feet. He raised his hand and directly signaled to apply for a substitution-the goalkeeper's position can't be wrong. Now that he is leading by three goals, this game is not a big problem. He should go down and rest first.

After Reina sent it down, Dudek also replaced it. Looking at everyone's eyes, Dudek directly raised his middle finger, "Come on, I can't bear the injury!"

What he said was categorical, and it was true.In the next game, Liverpool didn't give Reading any more chances--whether it was a chance to score or a chance to foul.After they defended all the way, they played very steadily.

Any strong team that blindly defends will be a very strong team. Since Liverpool does not want to attack, it is naturally able to defend.

After the game ended, the Liverpool players ran back immediately.With the lessons learned from Chelsea, at this time, they are all shadows.

"The injury is not serious, it will be fine after a little rest." Regarding Reina's injury, the team doctor gave a relieved answer, "There is a bump on the head, rest for about ten days will be fine."

"Ten days? Play Arsenal next week!" Garcia said immediately.

"Do you think I don't exist anymore?" Dudek became angry, "I'm still here, what are you afraid of!"

I'm afraid you're in a bad state... No one said that. [

And sure enough, Liverpool is really afraid of something now.In the league match in midweek, a low-level mistake by Dudek made Birmingham seize the opportunity and beat Liverpool 1-, allowing Liverpool to be eliminated from the League Cup.

"Yerzi, didn't we say you, can't you play a little bit better?" After the game, Zhao Yaning, who didn't play, could only sigh at this. Nai, "I will play Arsenal in the next game, but I can't play like this."

If it's for someone else, Liverpool doesn't have to care.Even Manchester United or Chelsea can grit their teeth and play ugly.But Arsenal is different.Their attack is probably the best in England. Playing with them, they always have a lot of chances. If Liverpool want to win, they must let their chances succeed.

And Dudek's biggest problem now is that he hasn't played for too long, and he really can't keep up with his state.

However, at this time, there is no other way.

Arsenal this season seems to be playing better than last season and indeed it should be better. Last season, their main defender Senderos was molested by Drogba time and time again, and this season, plus La and Touré would not have made such a mistake.And their biggest gain this season is that their little geniuses are all one year older, their bodies are even better, and their strength is naturally even better.

Although they let go of Campbell and Pires this season, and Bergkamp retired at the same time, they were mostly young people. At this time, the growth of young people is more important than the retention of veterans.

This season, Fabrega's position has started to advance. His physical fitness has been strengthened, and his technique has also improved. After his position has been advanced a bit, his way of playing football has also become more advanced. , This approach made him even more eye-catching, and in addition to winning the Golden Boy Award, and being considered the world's number one central midfielder in various games in the future, he has also received great praise now.

This season, the issue of whether Henry will stay with the team has become more and more controversial.He is already 28 years old. According to Wenger's theory, or Arsenal's tradition, players over the age of 28 should be considered veterans. Since they are veterans, they may decline at any time. Therefore, it should be a year. Once the contract is signed.Bergkamp agreed to this approach, but for Henry, it was a bit difficult to accept.Although it is also a team that has achieved great success in Arsenal, Henry does have his own grievances: when he was young, every time he was selected for the Ballon d'Or, he was still young, and so on.At the age of 28, when others were still at their peak, he became a veteran again, and had to accept the one-year signing. Of course, Henry would not accept it easily.

But Arsenal are also very tough now.Although Henry was outside Highbury, now that the Gunners are sitting on the children's version of the 'world's number one central midfielder', they naturally did not give Henry enough respect when negotiating.Especially this season, Henry was injured on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was divorcing his wife and fighting for custody of his daughter, so he was unable to play for a long time. This made his performance drop a lot and made Arsenal even tougher. .

And Arsenal's approach also gave Henry the idea of ​​leaving Arsenal, that is, after Wiltord and Pires, Arsenal's lineup of leaving without renewing the contract seems to really have a big name.What's more, the termination of the contract between Xia Tian and Campbell can be said to have added to this process.Seeing that Campbell, who was named a traitor in order to join Arsenal, was terminated, Henry was still a little bit sad.

However, that is a matter of the future, at least, Henry is still on the field in this game.As long as Henry is on the court, no one dares to ignore his existence.

In this game, Arsenal's arrangement is quite strange: their backcourt goalkeeper is still Lehmann, while the back line is the French teenager Clichy, Gallas, Toure and Eboue. The midfielder is equipped with Flamini's midfielder, the front is Fabregas and Hleb as two midfielders, and the frontcourt is equipped with three forwards: Henry, Adebayor and Van Persie.

Such a lineup, if it is only from a tactical point of view, there is not much problem: Henry can indeed play left winger.But given Henry's stature and ability, it's a bit odd to put him on the wing.Moreover, such a strong team is facing off with a single midfielder, which is even more strange: but the midfielder's style of play is already a non-mainstream style of play.Apart from Barcelona still insisting on a single midfielder, where else is the team playing like this?Moreover, Barcelona play a single defensive midfielder because the frontcourt players are willing to actively fight back. Deco's defense investment in every game is no less than offense, and Harvey is also very keen on defense.And this group of Arsenal players... Zhao Yaning doesn't know others, he still knows his temper towards Adebayor like the back of his hand.

What is Arsenal trying to do?

At the beginning of the game, Zhao Yaning was still worried about whether they had some tricks, but after trying it out, he immediately felt that his thoughts were redundant: no matter what the trick was, there was no doubt that such a big loophole in the back line that's it.What kind of trick can make up for such a loophole?

Soon, he launched an attack.After trying to pass with Gerrard and distracting Flamini's attention, Zhao Yaning directly cut in and rushed to the front of the penalty area. Without saying a word, he just kicked and shot!

The ball hit the crossbar and returned to the penalty area. Before Zhao Yaning had time to swear, he saw Lehman hugging the ball and throwing it out.

After receiving the ball, Cesc Fabregas gave the ball to Hleb without hesitation, made a pass, and after shaking off Gerrard's counter-robber, he didn't wait for Mascherano to come over. Kick the ball into the penalty area.

Adebayor grabbed the header, he stopped the ball inside the penalty area, and stepped on the ball under his feet.Fortunately, he is not Drogba. He is much less explosive, and he can't turn around and shoot at all, so Hypia is not too worried, but at this time, Henry is on the side, but Hypia Pia's face changed.

Carragher caught up to block Henry, and at this time, Adebayor also passed the ball.However, the route of his pass was not Henry, but Van Persie.

Van Persie received the ball and shot without stopping the ball, but it was higher than the goal frame! [

"Van Persie's shot was just a little bit short!"

It turned out that this was Wenger's idea.Zhao Yaning suddenly understood.
