Chapter 1104 Ginger Is Still Old and Spicy
Chen Yingxiong's goal is analyzed from a purely aesthetic point of view. It is not beautiful, but it is of great significance if it cannot be held up!
It was the equalizer goal for Liverpool.

It prevented Liverpool from encountering a defeat at home, even if they only lose the first goal, it is still a loss!
So after Chen Yingxiong scored a goal, all the commentators were very excited.

Old Hutson even stood up, waved his arms vigorously, and shouted loudly.

※ ※ ※

After scoring the goal, Chen Yingxiong did not celebrate the goal. He rushed directly into the goal, snatched the football from Iker Casillas, then held the football in his arms, turned and ran towards the center circle.

His action reminded everyone.

It was only then that everyone realized that even if Chen Yingxiong scored a goal, Liverpool would still be tied by Real Madrid at home. A draw is not too far from failure for them...

Liverpool people really have nothing to be happy about.

Thinking of this, the cheers at Anfield became much smaller.

The Liverpool players originally planned to celebrate the goal with Chen Yingxiong, but seeing Chen Yingxiong like this, they were no longer in the mood to celebrate.

Yes, a draw is considered a failure for Liverpool.

If you can't score another goal in the next 10 minutes or less...

※ ※ ※

This can also be seen from the performance of the Real Madrid players. After they lost the ball, they were not too frustrated. Except for Casillas who was a little unwilling to lose the ball, everyone else accepted the result calmly .For them, having an away goal is mission accomplished and a draw is not bad.

If the game ends here, it will definitely not affect their mood.

Even Mourinho didn't say anything about the conceded goal.

※ ※ ※

But can it be said that this ball is meaningless?

No.

Without this ball, Liverpool's game in the second leg would be even more difficult, and because of this game.In the second leg, as long as Liverpool scored first, they could lead Real Madrid on aggregate.

And it seems useless now, but who knows whether Chen Yingxiong's side will play a vital role in the end?
※ ※ ※

In the next game, Liverpool tried their best to attack, while Mourinho started to make substitutions. He replaced three players in the midfield, and his intention to strengthen the defense was obvious.

In his opinion, the result of 1:1 has made him very satisfied.

Liverpool bombarded Real Madrid's penalty area for more than ten minutes, but failed to finally break through Real Madrid's goal.Now this Real Madrid, under the leadership of Mourinho, has made great progress in defense. Compared with other Spanish teams, they are more disciplined in defense and easier to hold their breath.

When the full-time whistle blew, Real Madrid's players cheered with arms raised, while Liverpool's players hung their heads in dismay at the result.

Real Madrid fans also cheered in the stands.They have a reason to do so, one away goal, one draw, judging from the strength comparison between Real Madrid and Liverpool, the result of this first round can almost guarantee that they will advance to the semi-finals.

But the Liverpool fans sang from the stands, too, and didn't show much frustration.They sang Liverpool's team anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone".

This point makes the Real Madrid fans a little bit incomprehensible-if this game was played at the Bernabeu, the result was exactly the same, and the Real Madrid fans would have given Real Madrid face by not waving white handkerchiefs, and they might have already booed everywhere- Behaving so badly, are you embarrassed to let us cheer for you? !

In England, however, this does not seem to be the case.

Liverpool's performance was not outstanding, but Liverpool fans did not blame them.

※ ※ ※

"Damn it!" Until the end of the game, Chen Yingxiong couldn't score another goal, so he spat on the ground in displeasure.

Gerrard came up to comfort him: "Don't worry about it, hero. When the game is over, don't think about the game that is over. Go and thank the fans." He pointed to the stands.

Liverpool's performance in this game was mediocre, but the performance of Liverpool fans was world-class, and they should be thanked.

Chen Yingxiong followed his teammates to the sidelines, walked around the field, and thanked the fans who supported them unyieldingly in the face of difficulties.Without the support of these fans, Liverpool might not even have a draw, and would have lost at home directly...

Looking at those lovely fans, Chen Yingxiong swears in his heart.

In the next round, even if it's a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, I'll break into it for you to see!

Liverpool was tied by Real Madrid at home, and there were many people who gloated after the game.

Ferguson expressed his opinion on the first one: "I think Martin O'Neill intends to deliberately give up the match against Real Madrid so that he can focus on the league. He knows that it is impossible for Liverpool to eliminate Real Madrid..."

Now Ferguson's performance is completely different from the previous low-key image of "not fighting back when scolding or hitting back".

What happened to Liverpool in the past has nothing to do with him.Even if the media ran to ask him, he still had an expression of "I'm not Liverpool's father, you come to ask me what I do".

For a long time, he was virtually invisible in the media and his voice was rarely heard.It's as if he really no longer loves the football world, and plans to leave after the end of the season.

But now he is uncharacteristically high-profile, as long as it is related to Liverpool, he will jump out and point fingers.To remind everyone that he and Liverpool are real rivals, the undying kind.

In fact, this situation is normal...

And Ferguson makes Martin O'Neill feel bad every time he targets Liverpool.

Take the fact that Liverpool was tied by Real Madrid at home this time as an example. He jumped out and told everyone that the main reason why Liverpool can be tied by Real Madrid at home is that Liverpool has already planned to give up the Champions League and focus on the league.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with this sentence, and maybe it is helping Martin O'Neill to speak and relieve him of pressure. Even if the team is really eliminated, he can tell everyone that he has been prepared for a long time...

But it's precisely here that the problem arises.It's not taking the pressure off, it's putting the pressure on Martin O'Neill.

Why doesn't Martin O'Neill dare to give up the Champions League publicly?All he worries about is the impact on morale and the difficulty of explaining to the fans.

Now it's good, Ferguson gave him a shit bowl.

No matter what he said, everyone would preconceivedly believe what Ferguson said, thinking that O'Neill was just explaining and perfunctory.

So he can only show it with actions.

What action?

In the UEFA Champions League, he desperately defeated Real Madrid, eliminated them, and entered the Champions League semi-finals.Only in this way can I prove to everyone that I, Martin O'Neill, did not joke about Liverpool's Champions League honors, that bastard Ferguson is talking nonsense!

Of course, doing so can slap Ferguson in the face.But at the same time, Liverpool was also cornered.

Apart from trying their best to beat Real Madrid, they have no other way to go.Here comes the problem, human energy is limited, if Liverpool do their best in the Champions League, they will naturally not be able to do their best in the domestic league.In this way, it will provide Manchester United with an opportunity to catch up with them in the league.

Ferguson's purpose is with this.Use the power of public opinion to force Liverpool to choose between the Champions League and the league, and they can only choose the Champions League and give up the league.In this way, Ferguson can beat Liverpool, complete a great comeback, and be crowned the Premier League champion again.

And being overtaken by Manchester United in the league will inevitably distract Liverpool from both sides. They can neither give up the Champions League nor want to give up the league.Both sides want to work hard, but the result is that neither side can work hard. At that time, the league championship will be gone, and the Champions League championship will not be won.It's really nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket.

Liverpool's such a strong performance this season, if nothing is obtained in the end, it must be a heavy blow to the Liverpool team.

What's so hot about Ferguson's move is that even if Martin O'Neill sees through his trick, he has no way to deal with it, except to continue acting according to Ferguson's script.This is exactly the manifestation of Ferguson's scheming. People don't play tricks, they play tricks with you openly, and it doesn't help if you guess and confirm.

In the end, you can only go the way that others want you to go.

Ginger is still old and spicy!

Ferguson is an old ginger!

In addition to Ferguson, there are others who also expressed happiness at Liverpool's draw.It seems that with the rise of Liverpool, their popularity in English football has gradually become less popular...

In Spain, there are also many people who are very happy to see that Liverpool did not win.

They were all irritated by Chen Yingxiong's statement before the game that "it is easy to win the championship in a team like Real Madrid and Barcelona".

Now they are very happy to see Liverpool suffering and Chen Yingxiong being unlucky. All kinds of gloating voices are used to Chen Yingxiong, and they are endless.

Even the media in Barcelona sided with Real Madrid this time, helping the Real Madrid people laugh at Chen Yingxiong.

They don't do it for the silly reason that "everyone is from the same country, so we should all fight against each other".They were purely because they were also shot - in Chen Yingxiong's words, it wasn't just Real Madrid who were named by him...

In the league, they were closely pursued by Manchester United. In the Champions League, they finally had a chance for home court advantage, and Real Madrid scored an away goal in the away game, forcing a draw.

The only advantage was ruined like this.In the second round, when they go to Real Madrid's home court, can they still have a chance to turn around?
There is almost no suspense, Liverpool must be out!
Beat Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, something no team has done this season.
