Chapter 683 Normal Level
In the first half, they achieved a huge advantage of four goals, allowing Liverpool to completely control the situation under their feet.

The players of Dortmund obviously became impetuous. Weidenfeller received a meaningless yellow card for protesting against the referee at the end of stoppage time.

After more than ten minutes of commercials, Zhan Tianjun reappeared in the camera:

"4-0, such a score may be unacceptable to Dortmund fans, but if the tactical arrangements of the two sides are considered, it may be a reasonable result."

Zhang Lu’s analysis is more detailed:
"From my personal point of view, Tuchel made two mistakes in the starting XI:

The first is that the defensive midfielder Bender should not be changed to a central defender. In the 45 minutes of the first half, we all saw very clearly that he had almost no advantage under the suppression and confrontation of Benteke.

The second is the chain reaction. Since there is no Bender to intercept in the midfield, Tuchel has to use Durm and Weigl who are full-backs to deal with Longshut. Obviously, they all failed! "

Zhan Tianjun raised his eyebrows:

"The second half is about to start, and the players have already returned to the field... Oh? We saw that the coaches of both sides have adjusted the lineup..."
-
On Liverpool's side, Milner replaced Henderson, who had a slight leg injury, and continued to strengthen the defensive strength of the midfielder.

Perhaps after hearing the commentator's analysis, Tuchel directly replaced Durm, who was playing as a midfielder, and let Bender return to his post, and let Greek defenders Papastathopoulos and Hummels sit behind him. Defend.

The defenders will deal with the forwards, and the defensive midfielders will deal with the midfielders. Only then can Tuchel rectify the chaos and get back on track.

Having said that...

But Rogers must be able to understand why Tuchel didn't use Papa in the first half, because the defender was born on the wing and his height is only 183-not as good as Bender who was 185 before.

From a tactical point of view, there was nothing profound about this substitution, but in terms of results, it had an immediate effect...

In the 48th minute, Royce took a tactical corner kick. Mkhitaryan directly passed the ball after receiving the ball from the side. Hummels overpowered Lallana with a header and rewritten the score to 1-4.

"..."

At the moment of losing the ball, Long Shute was a little confused.

As the captain of Dortmund and the highest point on the field, Hummels is obviously an important figure when fighting for headers, but...why would Hummels of 192 be handed over to Lallana of 173 to defend?
Lallana felt bitter:
Who let the two defenders, Sakho and Lovren, be Aubameyang, and they are not in their positions at all!

Long Shute suddenly felt relieved for no reason.

This is the normal level of our Liverpool defense! -
Long Shute, who was relieved, could finally display his offensive power normally, and Sven Bender, who returned to the midfield, suffered another bad luck.

This is a very normal thing to do:

In the two seasons of 2011-12 and 2012-13, when Dortmund was at its peak, Bender and his teammates couldn't stop the young Long Shute. After two seasons of downturn and the turmoil of coaching changes, Bender himself can no longer get back to the state he was three or four years ago. Wanting to fight against a killer like Long Shute... is simply asking for a dead end!
In the 54th minute, Long Shute threw away Sven Bender with a seemingly ordinary emergency stop, and then assisted Lallana to complete the shot, rewriting the lead again, 5-1!

Lallana excitedly rushed to the sidelines and hugged Henderson, who was already off the field, to celebrate, but Long Shute noticed that Bender, who had just defended himself, fell to the ground clutching his ankles with annoyed expression...

Tuchel couldn't help pulling out a strand of hair from his already somewhat bald head.

The only defensive midfielder who is good at defense is injured...is this a joke? !
-
"Bender's injury hit Dortmund again," Zhan Tianjun glanced at the substitute list, "Tuchel doesn't have too many options, and the only players he can deploy are Shinji Kagawa, Shaheen, Laettner, and the 17-year-old. The American teenager Puliqiqi......"

Long Shute hopes that Kagawa can play, so that he can ravage this Japanese core.

But Tuchel has not gone crazy yet, he sent the midfielder Shaheen.

Shaheen...he is definitely another tragic figure.

He is one of the key core figures in Dortmund's re-emergence, and he was the best player in the entire Bundesliga that season, but he couldn't wait to join Real Madrid with a transfer fee of 1000 million euros. He has Ronaldo, Kaka, Ozil, Di Maria, Alonso, Khedira, Diarra, Callejon, Granero's Galacticos, the Bundesliga MVP made 8 appearances in one season (4 in the league, 4 in the cup) and lay in bed Won the La Liga championship in the 11-12 season...

After that, he was briefly loaned to Liverpool. The then head coach Dalglish gave him more than 10 appearances in half a season, but he didn't leave much to shine after a long absence.

In 2013, Shaheen, who had been drifting away for two years, chose to return to Dortmund. In the first season, he was almost seamlessly connected with his old club, 34 league games, 9 Champions League games, Bundesliga runner-up, Champions League quarter-finals, Bundesliga best team... a lot People thought he was about to regain his former peak.

Then he slipped quickly, playing only 14 times in the 15-9 season, continuous injuries kept him away from the court for a long time, even in the 15-16 season, he failed to fully recover.

Even Shaheen at his peak was not a meat grinder known for his defense, not to mention he is almost half disabled now!
Such a midfielder...you are going to lose your mind if you expect him to stop Long Shute, Tuchel! -
The song "You'll Never Walk Alone" is still flying over the West Stadium, but at this moment, the song seems very sad.

In the singing, some scattered boos can be heard faintly.

Tuchel's face was full of unwillingness, and then became helpless.

He saw a smiling gentleman from the British Empire walking over reservedly, and stretched out his right hand towards him.

Ah... I really want to punch his big round face!
-
"Drip, drip, drip!"

As soon as the three whistles fell, Zhan Tianjun's voice sounded:

"The game is over, the score is 7-2! Liverpool, who dominated the game, won a convincing victory in the away game of the world-famous Devil! Long Shute even dominated with a double hat-trick of goals and assists The whole game!"

Zhang Lu felt a little regretful:
"If Origi hadn't stretched his foot to touch that shot, he would have scored four goals, but the difference seems to be small, hehe, hehe..."
-
Three goals and three passes is indeed a perfect performance for any player, but Long Shute is not satisfied.

Because in the last half hour, Dortmund still did not give up.

Tuchel's last substitution spot was used on the American teenager Puli Qiqi. This 17-year-old boy can be said to be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He upset Liverpool's entire defense line by himself!
To make matters worse, Sacco and Lovren's plug-ins expired at the same time, and the two guards were almost scrambling to make mistakes in a row. If it weren't for their brave performance in the first half, Long Shute would definitely suspect that they were undercover agents sent by the opponent!
In order to stabilize the defense, Long Shute had to retreat again, leading Milner and Emrejan to teach the American children not to be so arrogant.

Only in this way, his chances of attacking will be greatly reduced, and he can barely complete a hat-trick...

The 7-2 score has almost allowed Liverpool to advance to the semi-finals. What is the difference between going through the motions in the second round a week later?
Captain Long can practice the substitute lineup at Anfield again!
