Klopp sat next to Rodri at this time. Rodri sat close to Lin Chen, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.
"I have to apologize to you, Rodri." Klopp made an unusual statement, wanting the head coach to apologize to the players, which is rare.
"You trained very hard and you performed very well in the third round of the EFL Cup, but I still didn't give you a chance to start in the Champions League."
"If things go well, I will replace you around the 80th minute of the second half, and you will have about ten minutes of performance time."
After Klopp finished speaking, he patted Rodri on the shoulder and left.
Upon hearing the news, Rodri was obviously very happy, his eyes lit up instantly. Lin Chen on the side looked at Rodri and smiled.
"Give you ten minutes, how would you prove yourself?"
Rodri thought for a moment and replied: "Do what I should do in these ten minutes."
Lin Chen nodded, he knew he didn't need to be reminded of anything else.
He was worried that Rodri would overdo it, frequently asking for the ball or taking long shots after coming on the pitch, or trying to make passes that seemed to be imaginative but might actually cause the team to pay the price of a counterattack.
Excessive performance will actually reduce your performance, but Rodri's words made Lin Chen understand that this guy is just a calm defensive midfielder.
Such a person should play as a single defensive midfielder, and he will definitely be able to play as a single defensive midfielder well!
The second half of the game resumed.
"The confrontation was intense, Bernat pulled down Mane and received a yellow card."
"One on one with Mane, it's hard for him to defend!"
"Corner kick from the left side goes to the front point! Thiago Silva clears the ball with a header!"
"Sharp defensive sense!"
……
"Neymar received the ball in the midfield, one of the few chances for Paris."
“The right side is running!”
"From behind, Mbappe and Robertson compete in speed!"
"Mbappe is still a little faster, keep dribbling the ball into the penalty area!"
"Van Dijk's flying tackle! Bold defense!"
"The second half of the game has reached the 60th minute. Liverpool still has the advantage in creating opportunities, and Paris can occasionally get some opportunities."
"But they rely more on individual roles on the wing. Facing Liverpool, who have now built a solid defense, it is difficult to create goals with such tactics."
Fans’ comments in the live broadcast room.
"I just want to ask, is there anyone who can break our defense?!"
"Van Dijk has the potential to become the world's best defender in the future. I have never seen a newcomer integrate into the team so quickly!"
"Mbappe runs too fast, he looks like Bale back then."
The fans enjoyed the game very much, and Liverpool fans enjoyed it even more.
So far this season, every game of Liverpool has been a feast and a visual enjoyment for them.
In the 67th minute of the game, Paris made the first substitution on the sidelines.
"PSG substitution."
"Draxler comes on as a substitute for Di Maria."
"It should be a position change, with Neymar playing as attacking midfielder and Draxler as left winger."
At this time Klopp also made a substitution adjustment. Rodri's name was called and the latter was obviously stunned, because Klopp had originally told him that he would be substituted in the 80th minute of the game.
"I want you to stay at the back of the middle after you come on the court and use your anticipation."
"Whether it's passing or intercepting, I believe you can help us stabilize the backcourt. Remember, defending Neymar requires not only ability but also courage!"
Klopp wants Rodri to play to defend Neymar who has switched to attacking midfielder!
Rodri tucked his jersey into his pants, kept the tactics in mind, his face full of anticipation. Laura in the stands shouted her boyfriend's name and applauded him.
Lin Chen deliberately waited for the position where Rodri came on the field. Wijnaldum was substituted, then he reached out and high-fived Rodri and gave him a look of affirmation.
As the game continued, Neymar, who changed to play as a front midfielder, began to make more breakthroughs in the midfield, and it was Rodri who was defending him!
The 70th minute of the game!
"Rabiot's pass changed the target, found Neymar, got the ball and turned around, one-on-one with Rodri!"
Facing Rodri, Neymar first feinted to the left, deceived Rodri's center of gravity, then quickly pulled the ball to the right, cleverly getting rid of it on the spot!
He didn't even touch the ball, he just changed his body's center of gravity to get past Rodri!
But Lin Chen arrived immediately and knocked Neymar away with a side collision. Before being knocked away, Neymar stretched out his right foot and miraculously kept the ball under his feet, then turned to face Lin Chen one-on-one.
He still tried to feint with his left foot and then pulled the ball.
But Lin Chen was not fooled the first time. He deliberately let out the left side of his body, and waited until Neymar tried to break through with the ball before suddenly rushing forward, cutting off the connection between Neymar and the ball that had been pulled out, and completing the steal!
Liverpool fans applauded and Rodri witnessed it all.
Standard teaching is happening right in front of you!
He got it!
Rodri decided to imitate Lin Chen and change his defensive posture!
