Chapter 1308 Because of Heroes
Aston Villa is indeed going to be unlucky.

When the players of the Liverpool reserve team adjusted their mentality and found the goal of struggle again, they were full of confidence in the next game.What about Aston Villa?What about Premier League teams?Wasn't it beaten 5-0 by our first team at home?Even if we are not as strong as the assistants of the first team, it is not too much for us to beat you 2:1 at home, right?

But the Aston Villa players are still looking at their opponent with old eyes, thinking that Chen Yingxiong's goal was just an accident.

There were even troubles for Aston Villa players to run to the referee after losing the ball. They thought that Chen Yingxiong made a foul when he broke through Peters.

Seeing this scene, the Chinese reporters in the media seats laughed, and a sense of superiority in IQ emerged spontaneously.

These reporters who have followed Chen Yingxiong to Russia, Italy, and England since his debut, are very clear that Chen Yingxiong's move to get rid of the close-fitting defense was when he was still playing for Zenit St. Petersburg. It happens from time to time, this is not a foul at all, it is a reasonable use of the rules, a reasonable physical collision!
It's just that in recent years, with the gradual improvement of Chen Yingxiong's skills at his feet, and as he has more and more weapons to turn around and get rid of the defense, he has rarely used this purely physical movement because there is no technical content.

But rarely using it doesn't mean he doesn't use it at all, or that he won't use it.Some weapons are always there, but most of the time they won't be used.The biggest function of this weapon is to deter, deter the opponent, and deter the enemy.

Chen Yingxiong's body is actually a deterrent force!
He rarely uses it now, but everyone should know that his body is actually the most terrifying weapon.It's a pity that many people have forgotten now, it seems that Chen Yingxiong, who has improved his skills, should abandon his body.

The reaction of the Aston Villa players is a good illustration of this point.

Of course, the referee ignored the protests and complaints of the Aston Villa players. He upheld the original verdict and insisted that Chen Yingxiong's goal was valid.

When the game restarted, the Aston Villa players hadn't recovered from the accident of losing the ball, and the Liverpool players had taken advantage of the situation to launch a more violent offensive.

At this time, everyone realized that this Liverpool team was completely different from the previous performance!
It's like they suddenly changed ten people...

No one is quite sure why Liverpool's reserve team, which had previously looked so unmotivated, has undergone such a change.

Is it just because of Chen Yingxiong's goal?
Martin O'Neill probably knows best why these players have changed like this. He saw that after Chen Yingxiong scored a goal, he gathered all the players and formed a circle.It must be something Chen Yingxiong said to them that made them change like this?

What will he say?

Martin O'Neill couldn't have imagined this.

But looking at it now, according to this momentum, it is possible for Liverpool to win the game in one go...

He knows his team best. Even the reserve team has some things in common.

Once they raise their aura, they will be unstoppable.

And this is still Liverpool's home game, and their combat effectiveness can be doubled.

※ ※ ※

Everything was as expected by Martin O'Neill. In the next game, the morale-boosted Liverpool reserve team firmly grasped the situation on the field, and their offensives were wave after wave.

And Aston Villa's front door was jittery, as if another goal might be lost at any time.

The Aston Villa players were terrified, not knowing why it happened like this.

During the intermission, they were still in a relaxed and happy mood, thinking that winning the game would not be a problem, and they were still dreaming of giving Liverpool a two-game losing streak.

Who would have thought that it would be completely upside down now...

In Liverpool's offensive, they can only barely support it, and don't even think about counterattacking.

In fact, they were completely stunned by Liverpool's rapid offensive, and they underestimated the enemy, which led to such embarrassment.As long as they are given a little time to recover and calm down, with their strength, they can still suppress the Liverpool reserve team.

But god... no, Chen Yingxiong didn't give them time to calm down.

Just 4 minutes after he scored, Chen Yingxiong scored again.

"Hero - scored twice! Beautiful!"

Harry Levy stood up from his seat, raised his arms and shouted.

"Liverpool has overtaken the score! Liverpool has completed the reversal!"

"This time it was a hero's header. Aston Villa's defenders were like a group of dwarfs in front of him. They were powerless to stop Liverpool's air attack!"

Chen Yingxiong, who landed on the ground, could finally celebrate this time. He opened his arms and rushed directly to the left back Jack Robinson who assisted him, and then gave the young teammate a strong hug.

Other players also swarmed up and surrounded the two to celebrate the goal.

At this time, everyone didn't think about whether Liverpool would have their own share if Liverpool entered the semi-finals, but simply enjoyed the game.

"It seems that Aston Villa is going to die... I see the shadow of the Liverpool first team..." A commentator has already sentenced Aston Villa to death in advance.

"Aston Villa underestimated their opponents in the first half, they thought they could easily beat a reserve team. They did have chances, they had a lot of chances in the first half to end the game early .But they squandered it all, and now it's their turn to be punished!"

The Aston Villa players in the TV picture lowered their heads one by one, looking helpless and frustrated.

"In fact, being led by Liverpool is far from the end of the world for Aston Villa, and it is not the end of the game. But if the hero is allowed to fully play out, Aston Villa will be unlucky... It is very difficult now. Obviously, the state of the hero has been fully activated! He can handle the entire Aston Villa by himself!"

Martin O'Neill saw Chen Yingxiong celebrating a goal with his reserve team teammates on the sidelines, and he knew that he should think about how to prepare for the semi-finals of the FA Cup, then reach the final and win the championship trophy. ...

※ ※ ※

In the end, Liverpool defeated Aston Villa 2:1 at home and entered the semi-finals.

Liverpool relied on the reserve team and Chen Yingxiong to get through all the way and reached the semi-finals.

This approach not only exercises the players of the reserve team, but also allows the players of the first team to get enough rest.

But such an approach does not meet the conditions for dissemination and promotion. Everyone has a reserve team, and some teams' reserve teams may be stronger than Liverpool's reserve team.

But the problem is that these teams don't have Chen Yingxiong...

Chen Yingxiong is the biggest contributor to this team being the most popular in the two cups and reaching the semi-finals, which is the key to the problem.

If Liverpool did not have Chen Yingxiong, their reserve team tactics would not be able to work.

Therefore, it is impossible for other teams to copy Martin O'Neill's tactics.

In the post-match press conference, reporters also asked Martin O'Neill about the tactics of the reserve team.

"Did you ever imagine in the beginning that this team could reach the semi-finals of both cups, Mr. O'Neill?"

Martin O'Neill nodded honestly: "To be honest, I was really surprised..."

"So do you agree that the main reason why this team can reach the semi-finals in both cups is because you have Chen Yingxiong?"

This time Martin O'Neill didn't honestly nod his head.

He is not stupid. How could he follow the opponent's wishes to sow dissension and destroy the team's internal unity?Although he actually agrees with the reporter's view in his heart - without Chen Yingxiong, there would be no such victories, and this game is even more typical.Of course, there should still be differences between him and the reporter. For example, the reporter believes that Chen Yingxiong’s role is mainly reflected in scoring goals, but Martin O’Neill disagrees. Chen Yingxiong’s support and help for the team is all-round, not only It is a goal, he is still a very qualified and excellent captain in the reserve team...

But he couldn't say that in his mouth, he shook his head and said: "No, that's not the case. Every boy in our reserve team is very good. Being able to reach the final is a victory for Liverpool as a whole, whether it is the reserve team or the first team. They all have one name in common - Liverpool!"

How hypocritical!

A reporter snorted disdainfully in his heart.

If he really thinks that the reserve team players are also very good, why didn't he let the reserve team players continue to start in the League Cup semi-finals instead of mobilizing more than half of the first team players?You must know that in the league rankings, their opponent Blackburn in the League Cup semi-finals is not as high as today's Aston Villa...

To put it bluntly, I still feel uneasy and unconfident about the reserve team players. I feel that these people are useless, and I am unwilling to continue to trust them in important games.

In fact, this is the role of Chen Yingxiong!Without Chen Yingxiong, this team might not even reach the fifth round of the FA Cup.Everyone knew what would happen without Chen Yingxiong and this group of reserve teams.Last season, Chen Yingxiong and the reserve team participated in the FA Cup together. Later, the schedule was intensive and Liverpool was under great pressure. O'Neill did not let Chen Yingxiong participate in the FA Cup to waste energy. As a result, Liverpool, who played with the reserve team, was eliminated.

Without Chen Yingxiong, it would be Aston Villa's head coach Tony Pulis sitting here today with a happy face!
