Chapter 463 A Draw Can Advance ([-])

Liverpool changed the conservative strategy of the first two games, so Arsenal's players were a little overwhelmed for a while.

They have been preparing in Liverpool for the past few days, and this effect cannot be compared with the recovery effect after returning to North London.

The state of Arsenal's players can only be said to be average. Except for the two players Bergkamp and Pires, everyone else basically started the game and played these key games.

The days of fighting have greatly challenged their physical fitness.

And Shao Bo's relatively conservative strategy of "not boldly using new players in key battles" has also attracted criticism from many media.

But they talk casually and don't have to bear any responsibility.

If he lost the game, then Shao Bo would have nothing to say, and if he won the game, the media would immediately change their tone and praise Shao Bo for his maturity and prudence.

But if he takes the risk of recruiting new people, maybe the media will criticize him for being too reckless.

Anyway, mouths grow on people's faces, so they can say whatever they want.

Shao Bo had no choice.

However, although he has no way to let the media say that he likes to hear it, he can guide these unscrupulous reporters to say flattering words.

There is only one way, and that is to win the game!
After winning, even if they don't want to, they can only praise Arsenal. This is the privilege of the winner!

Utilitarianism is very uncomfortable, but without victory, pure ideal football is also very painful.

Shao Bo believes that he has not yet reached that ideal state, so he can only try to get as close as possible to the ideal football while pursuing victory.

Of course, the most important thing in this game is to win or draw!

Because as long as there is a tie, Arsenal can also qualify for the promotion by virtue of a goal advantage in the last round!
"Come on, Arsenal."

“Old and great Arsenal!”

"Türkiye, Istanbul are waiting for us!"

The thousands of Arsenal fans in the stands were divided into several larger fan groups, and they joined together to sing a little tune to cheer for the team.

Fan songs are mainly easy to understand, easy to learn and easy to sing. The tune is simple, and the lyrics are just a few sentences, so everyone can learn it.

However, at this time, tens of thousands of other Liverpool fans in Anfield began to sing the more famous song that has spread all over the world. Publicly released songs inspire players.

Charge towards the honor!
"When you walk through a storm, hold your head high, don't be afraid of the dark, at the end of that storm, there is a golden sky... But go forward with the hope in your heart, you will never walk alone..."

"you'll never Walk Alone……"

"you'll never Walk Alone……"

Hearing this song sounded on the court, Shao Bo couldn't help being shocked.

At the beginning of the game, there was heavy rain, and Liverpool fans sang this song in unison in accordance with the tradition of Anfield for more than 40 years. However, Shao Bo was playing with the coaching staff at that time. He was busy Then confirm the final information with the referees.

As for the "Here is Anfield" sign hanging above the entrance of the Liverpool players' tunnel, he has seen it many times.

For so many years when he played Liverpool home games, he would see this sign, and now he is no stranger to it. At most, he complained twice that the corridors in this ancient stadium are too narrow, and it needs to be renovated and rebuilt!
But now that the rain is much less, the song sung by Liverpool fans is more penetrating.

The song wafted over the pitch and soon silenced thousands of Arsenal fans.

Judging from the solidarity outside the field, Liverpool has the upper hand!
The rain was much less, but it was still falling. The raindrops flowed down the hair, fell to the ground on the forehead and the tip of the nose, and flowed from the cheeks to the chin to the neck, soaking the clothes.

Shao Bo was standing on the edge of the court, arranging his tactics loudly.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of a dead ball, Arsenal need to change the unfavorable situation at this time!
After speaking to Pires for a while, he returned to the coach's bench and took a dry towel from Pat Rice.

Wiping his face and wiping away the few tears shed because he was moved, Shao Bo suddenly grinned—this is an opponent worthy of respect, and he should go all out to defeat him!
There is still a lot of game time in the first half. Today's Arsenal should not be so purely defensive. Although they can advance to the next level in this game, but blindly defending is not Arsenal's game style.

This game is destined to be a wonderful battle!
"Friends in the audience, there are less than 5 minutes left in the second half of the game... well, the fourth official on the sidelines just raised a sign, and there is 1 minute of stoppage time in the first half. Probably because the game went smoothly, there is nothing else That’s why the stoppage time is so short?”

The commentator didn't take a break, and dutifully explained the game.

The heavy rain had some impact on the camera, and some cameramen leaning on the sidelines were also exposed to the rain, but the commentators and guests did not have these problems.

Sitting in the warm and comfortable studio, while explaining this game, they also thought about the Premier League at the weekend.

After this game is over, you can rest for two days, but the Premier League games are still so intensive.

In addition, although Arsenal have left the FA Cup, Liverpool and Manchester United are still fighting, and they each have an FA Cup semi-final that they have not played yet.

Now the top four in the Premier League have only two fronts.

Chelsea and Arsenal are the Premier League and the Champions League, Manchester United is the FA Cup and the Premier League, and Liverpool is the most special. They have basically lost hope of winning the Premier League, but this season, no matter whether it is the League Cup, the FA Cup and the Champions League, All have the potential to win.

It's a pity that they lost to Chelsea in a penalty shootout in the League Cup final, and now only the FA Cup, which reached the semi-finals, and the Champions League, which is about to reach the semi-finals, are left.

In recent years, the league honors have been lacking, but the championship trophies in the cups have not been missed. Liverpool's title of "King of Cups" is still very reasonable.

However, Arsenal gained an advantage in the last home game, forcing Liverpool's players to take the initiative to play and strive for goals.

Otherwise, it is not impossible for both sides to waste 45 minutes each. Shao Bo is more willing to do that and ensure that the players will not consume too much energy.

In the next few games, one is more important than the other. Shao Bo doesn't want his players to lose the championship due to some small accidents at the last moment!
In the last few games, Shao Bo's goal is to win a complete victory, otherwise how can he catch up with the two teams in front.

Arsenal and Chelsea have yet to play a game, if they win that confrontation, they will definitely be able to surpass Chelsea.

However, their match with Manchester United is over, and there is no chance to play against each other this season. If Manchester United wins all the last four Premier League games, Shao Bo will have nothing to say.

In the first half, neither side scored a goal, and each got a yellow card. Lauren's yellow cards are also accumulated enough. If Arsenal can advance to the semi-finals, he will not be able to participate in the next game.

However, the most important thing today is to win this game, otherwise all Arsenal players will leave the Champions League with Lauren.

"Friends in the audience, let's take a short break and come back in 15 minutes."

In the last few minutes, Liverpool's players launched an extremely violent attack. Perhaps they knew that if they did not win this game, they would definitely have no chance of advancing.

In the second half, no one can tell what kind of substitutions and adjustments the head coach Benitez will make. It is better to play as hard as possible while still on the court, lest the second half not be too long. was replaced.

The team's performance is not very good. Now at a critical moment, Liverpool's players have a sense of crisis in their hearts.

Even Baros, the top scorer in the team, is the same. He shined in the European Cup, but after returning to the Premier League, he was silent for a long time.

Maybe it's because he used up his talents when he was in the national team. At this time, returning to the club game needs to accumulate slowly.

At the club, however, the fans don't have that much patience.

In the winter, there were rumors that Benitez would buy a new striker to replace Baros, but it was not confirmed in the end.

Fortunately, since the second half of the season, Baros is in pretty good form.

Although unable to compete for the top scorer, it is clear that his rediscovered form in January has also redeemed some of the bad impressions of coach Benitez.

Baros, who has a serious sense of crisis, is now thinking of staying in the team, enjoying a high salary and an enviable status.

At this point, really need to fight!
In the last attack of the first half, Barosz broke through after receiving a pass from Gerrard.

However, in the end this time the shot was not completed, the ball was stopped by Kolo Touré and handed over to a teammate.

And just when the Arsenal players were about to take the opportunity to launch a counterattack, the referee blew his whistle at the right time.

At this time, there is still a period of time before the stoppage time ends, but the referee has always been free to decide the end time of the game, as long as it is within a reasonable range.

Seeing that neither side had any chances in the first half, he ended the first half cleanly.

Now, he can go back to the referee's lounge to rest for a while.

The heavy rain not only drenched the players and coaches, but the referees didn't like such ghostly weather either!
