Chapter 165 When will the Crystal Palace attack?

At 17:30, the focus of this round of the league officially began.

Liverpool kick off.

Mane passed Firmino back, and Firmino passed the ball to the left flank with a beautiful direct pass to Guedes, Guedes took the ball forward.

At this time, the teenager Russell, who made his debut for the first time, went up to defend against Guedes.Guedes was unmoved. In his opinion, this is a milk baby. What can he do? Do you still want to get the ball from my feet?

childish!

There was a "snap", the sound of the ball hitting the meat.

Then Gerdes suddenly felt light on his feet.Looking down, the ball is gone!
Russell and Guedes just met and snatched the ball from Guedes.Russell completely listened to the words of the head coach Wu Haowen, and easily broke the ball from the world-class midfielder Guedes, which further confirmed his confidence in following in the footsteps of the great head coach Wu Haowen.

After Russell steals the ball, he makes a long pass to Streeter in front of him.After Street stopped the ball with his left foot, he immediately made a left pass to Zaha.At this moment, Zaha received the ball from Liverpool's left penalty area into an offensive position, and then shot with his left foot.

Liverpool goalkeeper Becker easily resolved the crisis, holding the ball in his arms with both hands.

this!Crystal Palace feels a little different!
Southgate was a little surprised. Only 17 seconds into the game, Crystal Palace launched a frontal attack.Although no goals were scored, the difference can still be felt.It seems that the desire to win is even stronger!

Arnold leaned over and smiled at Zaha.

"Hey! Zaha, did you drink last night? It feels like your feet are boring."

Zaha glared at him. At this time, captain Milivojevic patted Zaha on the shoulder to remind him to pay attention, this is in the game.

"Calm down! This is the opponent's tactic, don't be provoked!"

Zaha nodded and looked at Arnold with complicated eyes. He really wanted to prove himself and use goals.But he remembered Wu Haowen's advice: stabilize the first half first, and the goals will come back naturally.

As the game time passed, Liverpool chairman Trippier in the VIP room felt a little restless.This is at Anfield Stadium. We are facing a team that is about to be relegated. A team that has not won 6 consecutive games has played for more than 30 minutes without any advantage.

Trippier's expression naturally did not escape the eyes of England coach Southgate, he asked with a smile: "Chairman Trippier, do you think it is more interesting?"

Trippier still smiled and replied: "What we want is victory, and we don't care about the stalemate for a while. I think Coach Klopp knows what he is doing. Let's wait and see!"

Trippier handed Chairman Clark a cigar with a confident smile on his face, but he was already very angry inside.

Why didn't the damn German score a goal? You have to know that there are important guests here tonight.

……

In the 40th minute of the game, a goal finally broke the dull game.

But it was Crystal Palace who scored.

Bissaka threw a throw-in to Russell, and Liverpool's Henderson pushed up, trying to get the ball back from the feet of this seemingly young, but in fact, 18-year-old who performed very well tonight.

Russell turned his back to Henderson, but he still passed the ball very easily to his teammate Streeter behind him.Henderson felt that tonight's game was weird.

Because Russell didn't even turn his head to look at his teammates behind him, and passed the ball from under his own gear, and his teammates also accurately received this elusive pass.

Henderson can only classify these as luck.

But soon, 'luck' helped Crystal Palace break the deadlock.

Street ran the ball from the penalty area on the right to the middle of the goal, met Gomez and Van Dijk to help defend, had no chance, so he chose to pass the ball to Watson in the penalty area.

After all, it was the first time to represent Crystal Palace. Watson was a little nervous. In the case of a bad position, Watson still chose to take a shot. Arnold, who was marking Zaha, blocked it with his body.

The ball bounced, and Zaha hurried to chase the ball in the penalty area. He felt that this was an opportunity.

Zaha caught up with the ball and passed it back to Bisaka, who passed back to Zaha again. Zaha saw that Watson had a good chance in front of the goal, and he was not watched dead, so he immediately passed the ball with his right foot.

Watson also understood Zaha's meaning, facing the ball, he kicked the ball towards the goal, but unfortunately, he was unlucky and was bounced back to the field by the right post.

The goal post made a contribution and kept Liverpool's goal.

Robertson quickly ran towards the ball, trying to clear the siege with his big foot. At this moment, his back foot tripped suddenly and he fell out.

While flying in mid-air, Robertson was still in a happy mood: It seemed that the opponent made an offensive foul, and maybe he would let the opponent get a card.

But when he turned around to confirm which unlucky ghost it was, he saw Arnold with a frightened face.

Do not……!
There was a scuffle in front of the goal, a scuffle belonging to Liverpool people.

It turned out that Watson missed a goal just now. Seeing the ball bounce back, Arnold instinctively fell to the ground and shoveled, trying to shovel the ball out of the penalty area and destroy the bottom line.Unexpectedly, his teammate Robert Song was brought down.

Forget it, the key is that this fall hindered Gomez's save route, hindered goalkeeper Becker's save route, and hindered Liverpool's self-rescue.

There is only one ball and one Zaha on the right side in front of the goal.Naturally, Zaha would not give up this opportunity and quickly caught up with his right foot to score.

A bunch of Liverpool people in front of the door stared wide-eyed.

Crystal Palace 1:0 Liverpool.

Instead of celebrating his goal, Zaha found the goal and stretched his left hand to Arnold on the ground.

"Hey! Boy, do you need help?"

Zaha grinned and smiled wantonly.

Arnold turned away angrily, and then slowly got up by himself.

Zaha didn't take it seriously, and then glided to the side of the stands where the Crystal Palace fans were on the sidelines, and waved.

The fans in the stands were stunned, and Trippier in the VIP room was stunned, thinking it was an illusion.You know, this is Anfield Stadium, and there are more than 5 Liverpool fans at the scene with the team flag in their hands.

It is unbelievable that there are less than 2000 Crystal Palace fans who are excitedly waving small flags at this moment.

Coach Southgate looked back at Trippier meaningfully, meaning 'are you okay'.

Trippier said awkwardly to the FA chairman Clarke: "Crystal Palace was so lucky this time that they caught a chance. I think I should thank God for giving them a chance."

In fact, I feel uneasy:

When will Crystal Palace attack?Shouldn't they be actively defending and waiting for us to attack?The series of cooperation just now is not as bad as before. Is this coach really so amazing?

But as a veteran team, it is natural not to doubt the strength of its players.He lit a cigar and said confidently, "It won't be long. I think our boys know what to do next."

……

In the 43rd minute, Liverpool scored a throw-in.

Robertson threw the ball to Keita, but Watson saw the timing and headed it from halfway.Van Dijk didn't give Crystal Palace a chance, quickly retreated to catch up with the ball, and passed it to the left again to Robertson.

Robertson took the ball and attacked along the left sideline. When he was about to reach the corner flag, he poked hard with his left foot and the ball flew to the area in front of the goal.

At this moment, Salah, who was near the corner of the right goal, jumped up and headed towards the left goal.

The goalkeeper of the Crystal Palace Austrian national team goalkeeper Strebinger made a brave save. Unfortunately, he only touched the ball with his fingertips, but he could not change the strength and angle of the ball.

With a "bang", it drilled into the lower left corner.

Liverpool equalized the score.

The whole place is boiling.

At this time, the Liverpool team anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone" was suddenly sung.Wu Haowen is in awe, this is part of the culture, and it is exactly what Chinese football lacks.

……

Trippier waved his arms excitedly and said to Southgate: "Look! What I just said. Oh my God! I really love this goal. Salah is good."

Clark was calmer, smiling at Trippier.

"Chairman Trippier, when did a goal make you so excited? It's too late to accept it. I don't even see the passion of scoring goals."

Southgate turned around and looked at Trippier, and said with a smile: "Chairman Trippier, I'm really worried about your team now!"
