Legendary Godfather

166: Sure enough, greed is the greatest original sin!

Liverpool's players surrounded referee Banks and asked to speak.

Lallana even got furious and almost started fighting with Banks.

Fortunately, the Liverpool players found out and caught him early, otherwise, this guy would have been punished after the game.

Banks looked expressionless and signaled Lallana to leave quickly, and also signaled the Liverpool players to leave quickly.

This game cannot just stagnate. ??

The Liverpool people saw Banks' determination and everyone knew that there was no chance.

And they also saw the fire in Banks's eyes, and he immediately retreated.

They don't want to get two more red cards for something that doesn't happen.

If that were the case, there would be no competition for Liverpool in this game.

Although Klopp was very angry on the sidelines, at this time, he still remained rational and reminded his players to return to their positions quickly and not to worry about it anymore.

After all, Banks has already done the rough work of making penalties, and it is Liverpool who will suffer the consequences.

The Liverpool players then retreated to defend.

Lallana, on the other hand, turned back three times to express his dissatisfaction to the referee Banks.

Banks didn't pay attention to this guy's movements at all, and quietly watched Lallana perform, and then looked down at the watch on his wrist. Anyway, at this time, it is not his time that is wasted, but the Liverpool people's own time.

Black whistle, black whistle, black whistle!

The fans of the visiting team roared wildly and criticized Banks with such voices.

But Banks was expressionless and didn't care.

The fans of Crystal Palace gave Banks applause and thought he did the right thing.

Lallana eventually left the field angrily.

Liverpool fans are very dissatisfied, but this is a fact that cannot be changed.

"It's dangerous, now Liverpool is in danger. Lallana is sent off, and Liverpool will have one less player to fight. And this is Liverpool's away game. Under such circumstances, it will be difficult for Liverpool to play! Mortensen said immediately.

Shhhhhhh!

The Liverpool fans at the scene were still expressing their dissatisfaction.

"This is indeed the case. This situation is very unfavorable for Liverpool. It should be impossible for them to compete for victory! At this time, if I were Klopp, I might ask the whole team to shrink the defense. Just keep this draw. After all, this is not the final result, there is still the second round. I think Liverpool is worth it to get a draw at such a disadvantage." Shearer said at this time It actually gave the Liverpool people a trick, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Mortensen also turned his head and glanced at Shearer, and then immediately said, "That's true. Defending and keeping a draw is indeed Liverpool's own choice now. Being able to get a draw is also a success! But at this time, I think Klo Pu and Liverpool players are

They are reluctant to give up the attack. After all, they went from zero to two to three to two, and they definitely wanted to win this game. Therefore, this is very dangerous for Liverpool. "

It seems that if the attack continues, Liverpool will not only lose one person, but also the physical fitness of the players will decline, and the disadvantage of this missing person will be infinitely magnified. At this time, if they still attack fiercely, there will be a lot of loopholes in the backcourt.

This is an excellent opportunity for Crystal Palace, a team that is extremely good at counterattacking quickly.

Therefore, it would be very fatal for Liverpool to attack at this time.

Be rational, Liverpool should really take it back at this time and hold on to the draw.

Klopp did the same thing on the sidelines. He immediately came to the sidelines, reminded the Liverpool players to recycle, quickly waved their hands to defend, and held on to the draw. Let the victory or defeat be decided directly in the second round. In the second round, Crystal Palace returns to the same starting line. Liverpool's chances are still very good.

It is dangerous and unnecessary to attack Crystal Palace now at such a disadvantage.

Klopp's heroic act of breaking his wrist made people admire his wisdom.

However, the Liverpool players in the stadium felt it was a pity to give up like this, and they couldn't accept it.

They all feel that they can still fight hard, even if there is one less player, they can still threaten the Crystal Palace goal, and they, Liverpool, still have a chance.

At this time, Crystal Palace got a direct free kick in the frontcourt.

De Bruyne stood in front of the football, full of threats.

De Bruyne's free kick skills are also very good. He stood in front of the ball and gave Liverpool fans a lot of pressure. The fans of Liverpool were very nervous, and the players of Liverpool also lined up the wall conscientiously and meticulously.

At this time, De Bruyne did not serve the free kick quickly, but directly handed the opportunity to Asensio.

This was beyond everyone's expectations.

De Bruyne gave such a good free kick opportunity to the young Asensio? Asensio's free kick skills are better than De Bruyne's?

Liverpool players are doubtful!

They all felt that this should be a psychological warfare for the Crystal Palace people.

However, Liverpool was still meticulous in defending free kicks and did not relax just because the Crystal Palace players made substitutions.

Instead, they became more serious.

After all, everyone is more worried and afraid of the unknown.

However, Asensio also hit the world with long-range shots many times in the Crystal Palace. It can be seen that this guy's footwork is still very good. Granted, he also has a very good direct free kick skill, so the Crystal Palace talents will use this

Such a good opportunity was given to the young Asensio.

Liverpool attaches great importance to it and is firmly supporting Asensio.

All the fans in the audience were tightly supporting Asensio. They all wanted to see how good Asensio's free kick skills were?

beep!

At this moment, Banks blew the whistle for the free throw.

In front of the football, Asensio took a deep breath quickly and then accelerated towards the football.

Everyone held their breath and stared closely at Asensio, who was running up. Everyone thought he would complete the free kick. Liverpool was fully prepared, waiting for the football to fly out.

Unexpectedly, Asensio didn't kick the football at all, but ran past the football quickly and quickly ran into Liverpool's penalty area.

The Liverpool players were shocked. It was not Asensio who started the game. He was deceived.

After being shaken, they immediately regained their spirits and quickly looked in front of the football.

At this time, De Bruyne rushed forward quickly, and the Liverpool players suddenly understood. It turns out that De Bruyne was the one who shot the ball. They were really deceived by people like Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace people are so cunning!

Liverpool's players were staring at De Bruyne as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

They all thought De Bruyne would hit a perfect curve ball and the wall was ready to take off.

Unexpectedly, De Bruyne, who rushed up, pushed the ball directly and quickly pushed the football into Liverpool's penalty area.

And the football just rolled to the feet of Asensio who rushed into the penalty area!

Liverpool's defensive players were all focused on De Bruyne, but they didn't notice Asensio.

Therefore, Asensio received the football easily, with only Liverpool goalkeeper Mendy in front of him.

Went to the meeting alone!

Crystal Palace's free kick cooperation was really unexpected, at least the Liverpool people didn't expect it. At this time, it was too late for Liverpool's defensive players to pounce to intercept Asensio. They could only pin their hopes on goalkeeper Mendy.

Seeing Mendy rushing out, Asensio pushed the football lightly into the far corner.

With such a close-range push, even if Mendy was an octopus, he still couldn't hit the football.

The football rolled past Mendy's stretched-out toes and quickly rolled into the far lower corner of the goal.

The ball went in!

With a beautiful free kick, Crystal Palace broke through Liverpool's goal.

Four to three!

Crystal Palace finally exceeded the score again, Crystal Palace took the lead over Liverpool.

Liverpool's players raised their hands to signal that Asensio was offside. This was an offside kick and the ball could not be counted. All the Liverpool fans at the scene also reacted

, they all raised their hands to indicate offside.

However, referee Banks and the linesmen did not signal offside. This was a good goal.

And it can be seen from the slow-motion replay that the ball was indeed not offside. Crystal Palace's free kick was beyond the expectations of Liverpool's defensive players. Therefore, Asensio was given the opportunity to directly face the goalkeeper. Mendy's chance.

And Mendy had no choice. No one might be able to save such a close shot.

Therefore, this goal is that the Crystal Palace people performed too well and has nothing to do with their Liverpool team.

This is the strength of the Crystal Palace people.

Seeing this, Klopp was very speechless.

He also said that he would recycle and maintain the tie result. Now that I have been overtaken, what should I do? Should we accept this defeat, or should we go all out and create a miracle?

After struggling for a while, Klopp made a decision.

give up!

Losing only one goal is actually acceptable. After all, there is still a second round match between the two sides. The difference of one goal is not big. There is a great chance to defeat Crystal Palace when they return to their home court. If you don't concede the ball at this time, it means victory. In this case, there is still a chance in the second round.

If we attack at this time and are scored by Crystal Palace, the chance will be very small if we are two goals behind.

It is very likely that the second round of the game will become garbage time!

After all, at this time, Liverpool is missing one person, and their physical fitness has dropped significantly. At this time, rushing out and attacking fiercely is not asking for death?

To be on the safe side, Klopp gritted his teeth and gave up.

After all, if they lose at this time, they still have a chance in the second round.

Klopp immediately came to the sidelines to remind the players in the stadium to continue to defend, maintain the score on the spot, and not to concede any more goals. But obviously, the Liverpool players on the court could not accept such an ending. Originally, they should have won this game, but now they couldn't even get a draw. Naturally, they felt uncomfortable.

Therefore, after the game restarted, Liverpool's players actually attacked.

Seeing this, Klopp's face darkened.

However, his players made such a choice, and it was not easy for him to explode on the spot.

Moreover, he also has a sense of luck in his heart. What if Liverpool really equalizes the score?

Facts have proved that Klopp thought too much.

Just a minute later, Crystal Palace midfielder Casemiro stole the ball. Then Llorente found Ibrahimovic in the frontcourt with a long pass. Ibrahimovic jumped high to head the ball, and De Bruyne, who rushed up, didn't wait for the football to land. He met the ball with a volley, and the football was swiped into the Liverpool goal.

Crystal Palace expanded the score to five to three.

Crystal Palace defeated Liverpool at home.
