I brush achievements in football

For Southampton's possible counterattack, Liverpool did not fail to pay attention. At least, at this time, Van Dijk's attention was all on Du Yue.

Now that Liverpool is attacking, even if Southampton is attacking, it is just a counterattack, so he can focus all his attention on Du Yue.

However, such attention will greatly affect Liverpool's offense, because many of Liverpool's offenses were initiated by Van Dijk. In Liverpool, Van Dijk's value is not only defensive, but also offensive.

Under such circumstances, Van Dijk did not relax his defense against Du Yue-this guy has already scored two goals, whether it is Matip marking him or himself marking him, he has scored a goal. If he seizes a chance, Liverpool will really have no chance at all!

There are only ten minutes left in the game, Liverpool has been attacking, the more at this time, the more attention and care should be paid to Du Yue's explosion.

Of course, Van Dijk's caution towards Du Yue was not without reason. In fact, Southampton's counterattacks have always been quite fierce, and they never planned to rely on defense alone to withstand this last moment.

When the game progressed to No. 80 minutes, Southampton finally seized a chance and came back with a counterattack!

Liverpool's offense was destroyed by Maguire, De Bruyne took the lead to poke the ball to Rodri, and Rodri immediately passed the ball straight to the frontcourt B fee!

B Fei took the ball and turned around. In front of him, Du Yue was on the left and Sancho was on the right. It had already started!

Fei B didn't hesitate, but passed the ball directly to Du Yue.

At this time, Du Yue took the ball, and Van Dijk intercepted him in front of him.

Du Yue chuckled, if it was in the penalty area, Van Dijk's marking is really a headache, but now, it is in Liverpool's half, and there is enough space for me to use.

Van Dijk is also aware of this. Although his movements are also very agile and his speed is not slow, he is a central defender over 1.9 meters after all. Compared with the dexterous Du Yue, his turning and chasing speed seem very slow .

So he left enough gaps to give himself enough opportunities to react.

Du Yue didn't give him such a chance, but took the ball directly and rushed towards Liverpool's penalty area.

Van Dijk can only fight and retreat.

He didn't dare to entangle him immediately, because in that situation, once he was freed, he would never have a chance to catch up with Du Yue, so he could only choose to foul, but a red card is indispensable for a foul in such a situation, and one less If there is no one, Liverpool will not have any chance to equalize the score again!

So he can only fight and retreat, waiting for his teammates to retreat.

Du Yue's forward speed is very fast, and Van Dijk's speed is not slow. With enough space, he can still keep up with Du Yue's forward speed. However, Du Yue did not directly enter the penalty area, but When approaching the penalty area and knowing that Van Dijk would not retreat again, he chose to pass the ball!

The ball drew an arc in the air and flew straight to the right side of the penalty area.

Sancho, who jumped in at that position at high speed, was about to catch the ball, and another central defender Matip who returned to the defense immediately rushed over.

The other players are almost back on defense, all they need to do is block them for a moment...

Sancho didn't stop the ball, but raised his foot in the air and knocked the ball hard towards the middle!

B Fei, who had been rushing forward after scoring the ball, met the ball knocked by Sancho, and also did not stop the ball. He kicked the instep of his left foot while running, and it was a powerful ejection!

The ball roared and flew out, then flew past Alisson's hand, and plunged into the dead corner of the goal!

Three to one!Through a sharp counterattack, Southampton once again extended its lead!

At this time, Ji Ya opened his arms and rushed out from the coach's bench.

There will be no more suspense!

It is really not safe to lead by only one goal, but leading by two goals is enough!

Excessive focus on Du Yue is the root cause of Liverpool's goal loss.

From this point of view, Liverpool is also very miserable. Let Matip mark Du Yue, and Du Yue scores. When Van Dijk marks Du Yue, he is distracted to organize the defense. Du Yue still scores. At that time, Du Yue passed the ball to make a goal...

He gave up the chance of a hat-trick, but let Southampton get the crucial third goal!

From this perspective, Liverpool's loss is not wronged.

After leading by two goals, Ji Ya started to make substitutions, Valverde came on to replace Sancho, Phillips came on to replace B Fei, Southampton strengthened the midfield defense, and continued to concentrate on preparing for the counterattack.

Du Yue is the only one left in the frontcourt. Under such circumstances, one person is enough to contain the opponent's defender.

After the game restarted, Liverpool was not discouraged from top to bottom, but Southampton's defense became stronger.

Klopp replaced Matip with Shaqiri and launched a final violent attack.

In the constant impact, Liverpool finally recovered a point in the No.808 minute!

In the corner kick melee, Van Dijk shot from a small angle and was blocked by Maguire with his body. The ball fell to Mane's feet. When the Southampton players rushed over, Mane passed the ball to the back point Origi, the Belgian teenager took the first shot and the ball flew into the far corner of the goal. Mendy didn't respond to the close-range shot.

Two to three, Liverpool recovered one point!

This goal also gave Liverpool fans hope, but Southampton did not give them any hope.

After the kick-off, Southampton began to continuously control and pass the ball in the midfield. Under Liverpool's frenzied pressing, they still relied on constant passing to avoid the opponent's pressing, and even launched two attacks to force Liverpool had to fully return to defense.

After Liverpool returned to the defense, they began to pass back again, and began to fall near the center circle.

This obvious way of delaying time is quite effective.

Relying on superior ball handling ability, Southampton made the last few minutes of the game without any waves.

Although they failed to score again, they also killed Liverpool's final chance to counterattack!

There were a full 4 minutes of stoppage time, but in the last few minutes, Southampton didn't even give Liverpool a chance to get the ball!

This is a rather brutal approach, but being able to keep the ball out of reach in such a game is a huge achievement in itself!

The Southampton players have accomplished such an achievement. When the referee looked at his watch and then blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Southampton fans gave a huge cheer!

Three to two, an extremely thrilling score, but it was still Southampton who had the last laugh!
