I brush achievements in football

Although the two sides have only scored one goal so far, and it was a penalty kick, the excitement of this game is still guaranteed.

Players from both sides are constantly attacking back and forth on the field, which in itself proves their level and strength. In such a peak battle, they both showed a level worthy of it.

Of course, this is only 10 minutes after the start of the game.

In the back and forth attacks during this period, Southampton gradually began to gain the upper hand.

This is not because their strength is better, but in such entanglements, willpower is more important.

At the same time, they know that this is the time to grit their teeth and support.

The awareness of Liverpool's players in this regard seems to be a little worse.

So when they needed to carry it hard, they didn't stand up.

Southampton finally took control of the situation in the midfield, and then began to attack continuously.

Their offensive rhythm is not fast, Du Yue keeps running in the penalty area, and then others pass the ball outside, and pass the ball to Du Yue when they find an opportunity.

This is a seemingly simple tactic, but it can achieve extremely good results. With Du Yue's personal deterrence, it can cause so much trouble.

At the same time, this is something that Liverpool did not expect at all before the game. Du Yue's style of play has always been wide-ranging and has many places to hold the ball, but when he is waiting for his teammates to pass the ball in the penalty area, he can also bring such Big pressure!

Klopp remembered in a trance that during the two years when Du Yuecai was loaned to Leicester City and the first two seasons when he returned to Southampton, he appeared in the eyes of others as an opportunistic shooter !

It's just that he became more and more comprehensive later on, making people forget that he was once a pie eater.

Now, he started to concentrate on eating pie, what kind of lethality will it bring?

When Klopp thought of this, Southampton launched another beautiful attack on the field!

De Bruyne took the ball after changing position to the right. He first pretended to break through towards the bottom line, but then passed the ball to Sancho who was cross-cutting. Sancho did not force a cross-cutting shot. The ball was passed back to Cancelo, who was following up from the right. The Portuguese kicked his right foot without stopping the ball, and a beautiful curved ball flew into the penalty area!

Du Yue ran sideways, threw off Matip's defense, and then took off when the ball began to fall, and hit the goal with a beautiful head shake, pushing the ball out!

The ball quickly changed direction and flew into the far corner of the goal in front of Alisson's hand!

The crazy shouts of Southampton fans sounded from the stands!

After landing, Du Yue turned his head to look at the ball bouncing in the goal, and then ran to the stands, enjoying the warm cheers of the Southampton fans.

He scored this goal very smoothly. Matip couldn't guard him at all during the run. As long as he can seize one opportunity, it is enough...

Now, he seized such an opportunity.

Klopp shook his head. He didn't expect Du Yue's change, but such a change may not always work. He only needs to make a small response.

"Go and stare at him." Klopp made a gesture to Van Dijk from a distance off the court.

Van Dijk nodded. He didn't mark Du Yue before mainly because he wanted to organize the entire defense line. Now it seems that Du Yue's threat is so great that he must go up by himself.

"Substitute for marking? Then we can play more flexibly." Ji Ya thought in his heart.

This is actually Southampton's advantage. The midfielder has enough advantages, so it is easier for them to play against Liverpool with a relatively simple tactic.

This is also the key to why Liverpool suffers a lot when they encounter Manchester City in the league. Once their fast pace cannot be played, they will struggle against teams with excellent ball control.

Being able to double-kill Southampton in the league is only because of Southampton's state problems in those two games.

After the start of the game, the two sides continued to entangle on the field and began to continuously create threats.

However, the defensive lines and goalkeepers of both sides performed quite steadily in the next period of time.

Facing the passing of the Southampton midfielder after possession of the ball, Liverpool's defense was very stable. Van Dijk followed Du Yue's side tightly. Although he was tall, he moved very fast with his feet. He can control Du Yue's ball and shooting to a large extent.

After doing this, Southampton's offense appeared to be less threatening.

However, Liverpool's fast offense is useless in the face of the overall coordination of Southampton's defense. Liverpool's trident, most of the goals were scored by Salah and Mane, and after the two of them broke through, whether it was a shot or a goal. Passing is a great threat, but this kind of attack requires a certain gap. Southampton controls the midfield very tightly and does not give the opponent many opportunities to counterattack quickly. Under such circumstances, Southampton The defensive line can be considered to be able to deal with the opponent's attack with ease.

Facing a line of defense that is ready for battle, no matter how good Salah and Mane's breakthrough ability is, no matter how strong Firmino's response ability is, they will be greatly affected under such circumstances.

In the situation where the two sides are entangled, the fans of both sides in the stands have no opinion. In such a stalemate, it is time for them to show their enthusiasm!

The shouts of fans from both sides in the stands were louder and louder, and the confrontation between Southampton and Liverpool gradually heated up.

Steady on the one hand, anxious on the other.

What is stable is to stabilize the midfield and constantly pass the ball to find opportunities, but once they have an opportunity, they will immediately attack, and they are also in a hurry when they are stable.

On the other side, although they want to play as fast as possible, when they see that they are not playing fast, they will also control the ball, find a good opportunity, and then launch an attack. They are anxious and steady.

This is the case with football games. It does not mean that you must play well in the environment you are used to. For the top teams, they must also perform normally when they are not suitable for them to be able to win more. victory.

Ji Ya looked carefully at the field. Now this kind of stalemate is what he wants to see. After all, in terms of midfield, Liverpool is indeed the worst link. Although their money is spent on Alisson this summer In addition, it is spent in the midfield, but the construction of the midfield cannot be effective without spending money. Except for Fabinho, the other midfielders are old players, Henderson and Werner Erdum, Keita and others are useless, so although their goalkeeper position has been strengthened, the midfielder is still their weaker link.

The state of stalemate is to let Southampton's better midfield link to deal with the opponent's weaker midfield link. If it continues like this, it will always take advantage.
