Chapter 323
After the start of the second half, the on-site commentators began to comfort the Liverpool fans present.

He said: "Although it seems that the situation is not good for Liverpool now, I think this is just an illusion. It was the illusion brought to people after Klopp was sent off. In fact, as long as you calm down, you can find that Liverpool still have two goals. Leading, the advantage can be said to be quite large. As long as Liverpool does not mess up their position, it will be difficult for Leicester City to threaten Liverpool's goal. Although there is no Klopp, Liverpool only need to follow their pre-match arrangements, so If you keep kicking it, it should be fine..."

Less than 5 minutes after the on-site commentator said these words, Leicester City organized an attack on the right and hit Liverpool's 30-meter area. Then Drinkwater played a wonderful game with his teammates on the right. A one-two match, and after the breakthrough, he passed the football low to the goal.

However, Lovren, who has always played a stable central defender, did not know whether his mentality was affected. During the return to defense, he grabbed the tackle before Leicester City player Vardy, intending to destroy the football.

But he didn't expect that the football would be shoveled into his own goal in the end!
Mignolet, who was prepared to prepare carefully, could not have imagined that Lovren would score an own goal. His attention was focused on Vardy, and he had no ability to react to Lovren's ghostly own goal. I could only watch helplessly as the football flew into the goal from the near corner...

When Lovren shoveled the football into the Liverpool goal, the TV commentator exclaimed: "Oh my God - an own goal! Lovren scored an own goal! This is simply too bad for Liverpool!"

He quickly reacted: "Did I say the same thing before? It's okay, this time it's worse than last time!"

The on-site commentator was also very surprised. He just said before that as long as nothing unexpected happens, Liverpool will not have a big problem if they continue to play according to the established plan.As a result, not long after he finished speaking, reality gave him a loud slap in the face...

Didn't this accident just happen?
In the first 2 minutes, Reiva left the field with a serious injury. Before the end of the first half, Klopp was ejected from the field with a red card for protesting against the referee. Now there is another own goal - all the bad situations that a team can encounter are actually here. I did it all in the six to ten minutes of the game...

On the Chinese Internet, fans also expressed their opinions on this matter: "Who is Liverpool provoking? It is rare in the world to be so unlucky..."

"I think Liverpool won the league championship and the Champions League last season, which must have overdrawn their good luck for the next ten years. Now it's time to pay off the debt..."

"Maybe the previous games were too smooth, and God couldn't stand it anymore."

"It's so sad, I almost cried. Liverpool is so unlucky..."

"What I'm most afraid of right now is that Lin Yi is also injured. Actually, I don't care about Liverpool's results. I'm just a fan of Lin Yi. I just want Lin Yi to be safe and healthy..."

……

Seeing Lovren shovel the football into the goal guarded by Mignolet, Leicester City coach Ranieri jumped up on the sidelines and waved his fist vigorously - God is on our side!We can definitely turn this game around!

He then issued instructions to the players, asking them to continue their high-pressure offensive and strive to score another goal in a short period of time.

Now Liverpool will definitely be affected by this own goal, just to take advantage of their illness and kill them!
Lovren's own goal did have a very negative impact on Liverpool.

Everyone was shocked when the head coach was sent to the stands, and nothing positive happened during the halftime break. Everyone entered the second half with the same disappointment as in the first half.As a result, Lovren scored an own goal only 10 minutes into the second half, and the two-goal lead suddenly turned into a one-goal lead.

If there is anything that can comfort them before this, it is the 2:0 score, which is their only advantage.

As a result, the advantage is now gone instantly.

A two-goal lead is a completely different feeling than a one-goal lead.

A two-goal lead can make people feel safe, but a one-goal lead can only make people feel a crisis.

After the mentality changed, Liverpool was suddenly unable to resist the desperate play of Leicester City players.

Seeing that his team was on the offensive during this period and was just short of scoring a goal, Ranieri made a decisive substitution.

He replaced forward Bo Jose Ulloa with Japanese forward Shinji Okazaki.

"Shinji Okazaki is on the court. This Japanese striker only moved to Leicester City this season. This player has been playing for Mainz before. I believe Lin Yi must be familiar with him..." said the on-site commentary.

But who would have thought that just 2 minutes after Shinji Okazaki came on, Leicester City once again played a smooth cooperation on the right. Drinkwater sent another accurate cross from the right, and the football went straight to the front goal. .

Shinji Okazaki suddenly made a forward move and flicked the header back!
The football flew past Mignolet's hands and into the back corner of the goal!

"Ahhh! Leicester City equalized the score -!" the TV commentator exclaimed. "This game is so dramatic! Shinji Okazaki only played for 2 minutes, and this was only his second touch of the ball in the game! Could Liverpool's luck be any worse!?"

"This ball is dangerous... Oops!" the on-site commentator sighed, "No one was watching Shinji Okazaki when he drove forward... But he was able to push the ball in this way. It is indeed... such luck..."

In the blink of an eye, Liverpool's great situation disappeared... No, not only disappeared, but also fell from the clouds of heaven into the quagmire of hell!

The morale of the Liverpool players, who had been chasing two goals in a row, had almost hit rock bottom. At this time, they would naturally look to the coaching bench, waiting for Klopp's latest instructions.But when they looked over, they could only see the helpless assistant coach, not Klopp.

At this time, everyone remembered that their head coach and backbone was sent to the stands before the end of the first half and did not even enter the locker room...

If the head coach is away, what should you do in such a situation?
Many people's hearts are sinking and they have no idea at all.

Over there, the morale of the Leicester City players, who were chasing two goals in a row, was high. They didn't even celebrate the goal. After Shinji Okazaki scored, Vardy rushed into the goal and fished out the football, and then Turn around and run towards the center circle.

It's only the 604th minute now, and there are nearly three and 10 minutes until the end of the game. With this momentum, they have every chance to create a miracle. After falling behind by two goals, they finally chased three goals in a row and came back to win the game.

Take three points from the hellish Underfield Stadium and return triumphantly!

Not many teams can do such a thing!
"It's too bad, it's too bad..." The TV broadcast was showing close-ups of Liverpool players one by one. Every Liverpool player who appeared in the camera had a look of frustration and pain, and the TV commentator kept mumbling and repeating this sentence.

But when Lin Yi appeared in the camera, the style of his painting suddenly changed.

The camera did not capture his expression because he was covering his mouth while talking to Salah.

Although you can't see his mouth, you can still see something...positive from between his eyebrows.

"Lin Yi seems to be giving instructions to Salah..." the TV commentator guessed.

He guessed right.

Lin Yi was indeed giving Salah instructions.

He didn't have time to pose and show his sadness and pain.

"They have equalized the score now. Did you see them running back with the ball?" Lin Yi asked Salah.

Salah nodded.

"This shows that they are absolutely unwilling to get a point in the away game. They still want to win." Salah curled his lips: "The ambition is not small. Beat us at our home court? How is it possible!"

"What's impossible? Football is round." Lin Yi covered his mouth and said. "They must feel good now, and it is indeed their opportunity. But it is also our opportunity..."

Salah guessed Lin Yi's thoughts: "You mean counterattack?"

Lin Yi nodded: "Yes. If they want to create a miracle, how can they achieve it if they don't go all out to attack?"

There was no need for Lin Yi to say anything else, Salah understood it all.This kind of thing has happened many times since he came to Liverpool.

He is also very good at counterattacks. He has strong speed and individual combat ability. He is indeed a good counterattacker.

"Don't stick to one position, run wherever there is space." After Lin Yi said this, he motioned for Salah to go outside the center circle.

Next, Lin Yi turned around and shouted to his other teammates: "Hey! Hey! The game is not over yet! This is our home court!"

Many teammates were attracted by Lin Yi's voice. They looked up and looked at Lin Yi. Lin Yi waved to them, signaling them to come up and prepare to kick off.

For some reason, when they saw Lin Yi's calm and calm look, their sinking hearts were suddenly held up by something and stopped falling.

By the way, isn't Lin Yi still there?
With him here, what are you afraid of?

Many people will have such an idea involuntarily.

Although he is now tied by the opponent, Lin Yi always has a way, doesn't he?

The TV broadcast cut to Klopp's face in the stands. The head coach, whose face had been gloomy for most of the game, finally smiled again.

"Lin Yi is encouraging his teammates. At this time, someone really needs to stand up!" The on-site commentator was excited. "As the core of the team and the new king of Liverpool, Lin Yi has to show his attitude of 'who else would he give me?'"

When the game restarted, Leicester City launched a fierce offensive against Liverpool's goal. They just hoped to take advantage of the momentum of the equalizer to score another goal and completely take the initiative of the game into their own hands. .

Faced with Leicester City's aggressive offensive, Liverpool shrunk its defense.

This is a normal adjustment and nothing unusual.

But while on defense, Lin Yi kept turning his head and looking around to observe the situation on the court.

He keeps everything that happens on the court in mind, constantly updating data and analyzing it.

Looking for the best opportunity to counterattack.

The reason why he is so cautious is because Lin Yi does not want to alert the enemy - if Leicester City realizes that their attack will result in conceding goals, then he is likely to shrink the defense.By then Liverpool had lost its best scoring opportunity.

For Leicester City, this is an away game. Even if they don't win in the end, getting a point is not unacceptable.

But Liverpool can't accept it, they have to win, they can only win.

When the mentality of both parties changes, the initiative will fall into the hands of Leicester City again.

Therefore, Lin Yi must be cautious to ensure the success rate.

Originally, if he was pressed by his opponent, he would have fewer opportunities to attack, and he didn't have many opportunities to squander it.

Besides, Salah cannot be at the front waiting for the opportunity to counterattack. As a winger, he not only has to attack, but also shoulders the heavy responsibility of returning to defense.When Leicester City's offensive was at its peak, the entire Liverpool team had to return to defense. Otherwise, it was hard to say whether the goal would be able to keep the ball away. How could he stay in front alone?
As a result, Liverpool's counterattack opportunities will naturally be reduced, and they cannot afford to waste them.

Lin Yi was looking for an opportunity to counterattack, and Salah was also looking for it.

He is also very aware of the current situation - others are defending from behind, and he wants Lin Yi to directly send the football behind the opponent's defense with a long pass, and then he reverses offside to get the ball, dribbles the ball into the opponent's penalty area, and directly faces the opponent's penalty area. Against the goalkeeper, it is almost impossible to score the ball easily into the goal.

If he rushes too far forward, the team's defensive formation will be incomplete, and it will also arouse the opponent's vigilance.

So he could only maintain the status quo, defending in the backcourt while waiting for opportunities to counterattack.

In this case, I'm afraid he will have to dribble the ball through a few people.

Salah doesn't find it difficult. Breaking through with the ball is like eating and drinking. It is normal for him. He is best at doing this.

What is needed now is opportunity.

He is waiting for his opportunity.

In the 705th minute, Leicester City launched an attack. This attack went all the way to Liverpool's goal, but their cross was picked directly from the air by Mignolet.

When he landed, he caught a glimpse of Lin Yi.

The tacit understanding of playing football together for almost two years allowed him to throw the football directly to Lin Yi outside the penalty area without waiting for a signal from Lin Yi.

Lin Yi used his chest to cushion the football and completed his turn at the same time.

Then he raised his foot and bounced the falling football directly out of the air, landing at the feet of Lovren next to him.

After passing the ball, he ran forward quickly and opened the angle to respond.

Lovren also immediately passed the football back.

Lin Yi received the ball and immediately became the focus of everyone on the court, especially the Leicester City players.

There is no need to go into details about Lin Yi's greatness.

As soon as he got the ball, Leicester City players immediately came up to block Lin Yi's ball.
