Tyrant of green giants, signed Guardiola at the beginning

Liverpool, who were lagging behind, were like an enraged beast.

The two full-backs, Finnan and Riise, took turns to move forward to exert stronger offensive pressure on Leeds United in the frontcourt.

Gerrard reduced the organization's tasks in the middle, but expanded the running range, trying to meet the advancement of the wing inside.

He can get away from Guardiola, and he can also keep Jamie Redknapp's defense passive in key confrontations and movements.

But when Finnan and Riise tried to pass the ball to him one after another, Gerrard was sniped by Simeone or Redondo.

As the game approached 40 minutes, Gerrard led the ball in front of Redondo and moved toward the center, using faster speed to widen the distance from Redondo.

But seeing Simeone's interception coming in front of him, Gerrard instinctively spiked the ball and rushed forward.

He collided with Simeone and fell to the ground.

The football had been cut off by DeBoer before he fell to the ground.

The referee did not blow the whistle.

Leeds United launched a fast break on the spot.

Gerrard got up from the ground and looked at De Boer, who was close at hand, and decisively stepped forward to press.

At the same time, Neil Mellor and Pangler also put pressure on DeBoer from both sides.

However, De Boer was caught in a trap but was brave enough to twist on the spot and adjust his direction, accurately passing the ball to the feet of Jamie Redknapp. Then Gerrard and the three of them surrounded and suppressed him completely. surrounded.

Liverpool's fast break once again moved forward quickly.

Jamie Redknapp crossed the ball into the middle as Finnan turned back to defend and press closer.

Guardiola followed up with a quick pass from the center to continue the attack.

Lennon cut from the right to the front area of ​​​​the penalty area, forcing Traore to step forward for close marking.

Gerrard ran back and kept narrowing the gap between him and Guardiola.

But when Guardiola reached the forward area of ​​Liverpool's penalty area with the ball, Hamann and Gerrard were about to complete their back-and-forth attack.

Guardiola, however, passed the ball across the ball like a leisurely pace.

Everyone's eyes turned and they looked at Redondo's sudden attack with some disbelief!

Lennon turned around from the outside to fight offside and passed Traore. Traore retreated and pulled Lennon.

At this time, Redondo calmly sent the ball straight into the center of the penalty area after stopping the ball.

Batistuta was marked by Carragher, but he suddenly turned around and ran when Redondo passed the ball.

Carragher turned to pursue, but was unable to prevent Batistuta from touching the ball first.

Dudek decisively attacked Batistuta, but the latter moved the ball with his right foot and rushed forward to the right at the moment he touched the ball.

He and Dudek just passed each other with a distance of one meter and then immediately pushed!

Dudek braked suddenly and turned around to save, but before he hit the ground, the ball had already rolled into the Liverpool goal against the inside of the right post!

Countless Liverpool fans at Anfield were stunned and dumbfounded.

"Batti! Scored twice! We are two goals ahead of Liverpool at Anfield!"

"Liverpool kop, tell me loudly, who is the prey?"

Batistuta continued his passionate celebration amidst the wild cheers of Leeds United fans, knelt down on the sidelines and fired with a gun!

Shen Hao gritted his teeth and punched his fist, his expression becoming even colder.

There was even a bit of cruelty in his eyes.

Benitez was terrified at this moment.

Is this the strength of the British Championship?

This horse is definitely a tough nut to crack even in the Premier League!

In his eyes, Leeds United's technical and tactical value is inferior to that of most teams in the Premier League.

Methodical fast break, skilled and delicate teamwork, excellent foot skills and imaginative creativity.

I would like to ask, how many defenders in the Premier League can calmly play the ball forward when faced with pressure like De Boer?

How many midfielders can pass the ball without completing the containment?

Redondo is a defensive midfielder, but his through ball just now, Batistuta's movement in the penalty area to escape and the calmness of changing direction to break through the goalkeeper.

How many people in the Premier League can do it?

Benitez glanced at Shen Hao with complicated eyes.

The young Chinese marshal did not just rely on his remaining power as a star to dominate the British Championship.

They can be combined into a team, showing an overall combat effectiveness that is almost free of flaws and disconnections.

This is the real horror!

Gerrard looked at the Leeds United players on the field, feeling a little powerless in his heart.

At his peak, he had only one thought at this moment: he couldn't carry him!

If Liverpool, Hyypia, Alonso, Cisse, Kewell, including the newly joined Morientes, appear together.

Only then will it be possible to gain an advantage in front of this Leeds United team.

With him and Luis Garcia alone, and the support of the two full-backs, rushing forward is just digging your own grave!

This is Leeds United.

Incredibly strong!

The halftime game ended quickly.

The Leeds United crowd will march to the tunnel with pride.

For those past stars, the clash with Liverpool allowed them to regain a long-lost sense of satisfaction.

If you can win, the sense of accomplishment will also be a huge stimulus.

At this time, Liverpool fans will definitely be intimidated when they look at Leeds United's great team!

If they can maintain today's combat effectiveness and return to the Premier League, I dare not say that they can shake the Premier League championship pattern.

But the battle for fourth place will definitely be more brutal!

On the other hand, many Liverpool generals looked worried, and they were beaten disgraced in the first half.

More important is the blow to confidence.

I thought that no matter how strong Leeds United was, they would still be a piece of fish, allowing them to slaughter them at will.

But now it is discovered that Leeds United are the hunters!

After Shen Hao returned to the locker room, he clapped his hands and everyone quickly fell silent.

"With a two-goal lead, we have established a good advantage and we must not waste it!"

"The situation in this game is very simple. If we limit Liverpool's most threatening player, we will definitely win."

"Gerrard will definitely use his long-range shots in the second half. We didn't give him space or opportunities in the first half. It's the same in the second half. Jamie, I need you to invest more in defense in the second half and assist Diego to completely suppress Gerrard." !”

Jamie Redknapp immediately nodded to Shen Hao and said loudly: "No problem, boss."

Shen Hao then said to Kelly: "You did a good job of freezing Luis Garcia in the first half. Keep it in the second half and foul if necessary, because in the final stage of the game, Fernando's physical fitness may be tested."

Redondo wiped his sweat and did not protest.

Almost 36 years old.

There is no need to show off in this regard.

Kelly puffed out his chest and said loudly: "Promise to complete the task!"

"Riise's long shot will be a potential threat, so it is necessary to strengthen the sweep in the midfield. Pep, do your best. When your physical strength reaches the critical point, I will replace you. Gregan is on standby. Stay safe." The bench observes the situation on the field."

Guardiola immediately replied: "Understood, boss."

Shen Hao finally said: "Benitez will definitely make substitutions before the start of the second half, or before 60 minutes. Of their substitute list today, the only one who can bring an impact to the situation is Baros. If he comes on the field, the defense will Increase your defensive aggression now!"

Radebe, DeBoer, Kilgallon and Kelly replied in unison: "Understood!"

After Shen Hao finished his lecture, he said: "Have a good rest now, and I will bury Liverpool directly in the second half."

After saying that, he turned and left.

The Leeds United players looked at each other with excitement and fighting spirit.

Returning to the field in the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Shen Hao continued to stand aside and supervise the battle.

Liverpool made a substitution before kick-off.

Baros came on as a substitute for Neil Mellor.

This substitution made all Leeds United players couldn't help but glance at Shen Hao on the sidelines.

Accurate prediction!

In fact, it is not difficult.

Shen Hao will not be complacent.

Because Liverpool’s room for adjustment in terms of personnel is clear at a glance.

Benitez's personnel adjustments can be predicted by thinking through it.

Unless he doesn't want to make a comeback.

After the start of the second half of the game, Leeds United's positional warfare offensive did not work satisfactorily.

Jamie Redknapp's position retreated and the offense became cautious, causing Leeds United's offensive changes in the frontcourt to naturally decline.

Liverpool's Gerrard and Riise took long-range shots one after another, but they were all missed by Leeds United's prepared interceptions and interference.

Guardiola consciously slowed down the pace at this time and frequently passed the ball diagonally back to the two full-backs.

Liverpool, who were two goals behind, were forced to increase their aggressiveness in the counter-attack, and their formation naturally pressed much harder.

Baros's appearance did not bring a threat that made Shen Hao nervous.

The Czech forward, who was very popular in the European Cup, came to Liverpool and his performance in the Premier League was lackluster to say the least.

To put it realistically, all the expectations of winning the European Cup highlights were lost in the Premier League.

Otherwise, Liverpool would not have to recruit Morientes during the winter break, and Benitez would ask Shen Hao about Lennon.

After Kewell was injured, Liverpool's right-side attack was not much different from paralysis.

In the 62nd minute of the game, Luis Garcia was restrained from the left, and Riise moved forward. The former scored the ball, and the latter stopped and went to the outside line and then made a pass.

Gerrard also came to the position just entering the penalty area in order to score.

However, Riise's cross was cleared by Radebe first.

Pangler and Baros grabbed the spot and grabbed a lonely spot.

Gerrard immediately turned around and retreated.

Shen Hao couldn't help but frown at his energetic appearance.

The comprehensive strength of the Premier League's top stars is indeed admirable.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that most of the top stars in the Premier League are physical monsters.

The football released by Radebe was controlled by Hamann in front of the center circle. Since Gerrard had not retreated in place, Hamann passed the ball to the left wing under the pressure of Lennon and Batistuta.

Luis Garcia was blocked by a long leg just as he was about to stop the ball!

Redondo!

Redondo got stuck to steal the ball, took one step forward and then quickly passed the ball straight ahead.

Lennon turned around and sprinted. The football rolled from behind and he advanced forward.

Batistuta quickly ran forward along the middle, and Lennon dribbled faster and faster.

Benitez secretly clenched his fists on the sidelines.

His eyes became a little gloomy!

This speed!

Even the Premier League giants must be jealous!

Lennon had just reached the front area of ​​the penalty area with the ball, and Traore, who could no longer retreat, rushed towards him and launched a frontal interception.

Lennon passed the ball diagonally to the middle and then rushed past Traore and continued to move forward.

Batistuta kicked the ball under Carragher's pressure.

He completed a simple pass and cut to Lennon.

Lennon crossed the ball into the right rib area of ​​the penalty area, received Batistuta's pass and continued to dribble forward, seemingly adjusting to prepare for a shot.

Dudek was forced to abandon the door.

Liverpool fans have their hearts in their throats!

Seeing that Lennon and Dudek were about to fight hand to hand, everyone was watching to see whether Lennon would deliver the fatal blow or Dudek would resolve the blow alone.

But at the critical moment, Lennon suddenly passed the ball back in an inverted triangle.

Everyone turned their attention and saw Guardiola rushing to the top right area of ​​the penalty area. Hamann was near him, but he was unable to intercept and destroy it immediately.

Guardiola met Lennon's back pass and shot directly.

The football that was shot with the inside of the instep drew a slight outer arc above the Liverpool penalty area and fell into the goal near the lower left corner.

The vast majority of Liverpool fans at Anfield couldn't help but hold their heads in their hands with dull faces!

"Guardiola! What a light shot, a pleasing arc, a gentle fatal blow! In white, leading Liverpool 3:0!"

"White clothes, everyone stand up! Celebrate our victory over the Premier League giants tonight!"

"Hahaha, Brother Hao taught Benitez a good lesson today!"

Shen Hao finally showed a smile on the sidelines, turned around and walked up to the three assistant coaches with a smile. He raised his right hand and slapped it, bang bang bang!

Three hits at a time with the outstretched hand of three assistants.

Benitez turned and looked at Shen Hao again, and this time Shen Hao happened to see him after finishing the high-five.

Their eyes looked at each other from afar.

Shen Hao is not only full of confidence, but also a bit domineering and provocative!

As if silently saying to Benitez: Come on!As long as Liverpool dares to attack, Leeds United will dare to drain Liverpool's blood today!

Dye the Anfield turf blood red!

Benitez was the first to retract his gaze, but his heart was chilling and his spine was cold!

He finally realized that Leeds were more than prepared.

And it has absolute strength!

A hunt for Liverpool at Anfield!

Leading Liverpool 3:0.

Leeds United officially refreshed the mainstream fans' impression of this team in England in this game!

Don't look at the number of Leeds United fans.

But the number of Premier League fans is the main force of local fans.

And most of their attention to the English Championship teams must be reported by the news media.

Kudos to Fleet Street for always talking bad about Leeds United.

To a certain extent, Premier League teams and fans simply did not pay enough attention to Leeds United.

Don't look at the great reputations of Leeds United's great team.

But if he is really that strong, how could he possibly be hired by Leeds United?

But the current situation has already made Liverpool regret it.

Why not strong?

A group of max-level numbers are just a bit inferior in equipment, but they are still better than Liverpool's lineup without all the main players on the field!

Moreover, Leeds United played from the back with premeditation.

Smooth, delicate and efficient organization, swift counterattack speed, and cold-blooded fatal blow.

Coupled with a strong and tight defense.

Benitez knew the game was a dead end.

And it was definitely a complete defeat!

If Liverpool refuses to give in, they may lose even more miserably!
