football dynasty

After Rodwell was sent off, the game immediately took a major turning point. Anyone who has played football knows the pain of playing one less player, not to mention Liverpool is a team of players who can run very well.

Li Wei has always advocated that his players should run one more person than the opponent!

How is it that there is one more person running?
Assuming that each Everton player runs 1000 meters per game (just a hypothesis, because the goalkeeper’s running distance cannot be so large), while the average running distance of Liverpool players is 11 meters per game, the total running distance It is 12 meters for Everton and 1000 meters for Liverpool, which is 1000 meters longer than Everton, which is equivalent to one more player!
Of course, if you run 1000 meters more than the opponent, it is equivalent to one more player and you can win the opponent.Soccer games are not just about playing football. You just have to compete with a group of long-distance runners and see who can run better.

But it is undeniable that in modern football, the running distance of players has been paid more and more attention by the head coach.

In the future 2014 World Cup in Brazil, according to the statistics of professional organizations, in the 32 group matches of the World Cup in Brazil, the teams with more running distance per capita achieved [-] wins, [-] draws and [-] losses.

For example, the Costa Rica team, which broke into the quarter-finals, became the biggest dark horse in the Brazil World Cup, relying on running. They ran more than 9 kilometers per capita, surpassing Uruguay and Italy in the group stage.

Among those teams that ran long distances but lost, such as Bosnia and Herzegovina, they ran an average distance of 9794 meters in the game against Argentina, which was more than Argentina's 8983 meters.Although the final loss was due to the personal ability and luck of the opponent's star, he won the honorable evaluation of defeat.

In addition, Spain, the defending champion of the World Cup in Brazil, has become the best negative teaching material. In the first two group matches against the Netherlands and Chile, Spain lagged behind in running distance, especially in the 0-2 loss to Chile. Nearly 1000 meters below the opponent, the slackness of the players is clearly reflected in the data, so there was a big upset that the defending champion was out of the group stage.

When the opponent has one less man, and Liverpool runs one more man than Everton.In the game, Everton was completely passive, as if they had ten people against Liverpool's 12 people.

…………

Moyes could no longer sit comfortably on the coach's bench. He stood on the sidelines, staring at the field, biting his lower lip.

He was thinking hard about countermeasures, but unfortunately he didn't.

Really do not have.

There was one less player to play, not to mention offense, even defending Everton felt difficult, and he didn't know how to adjust.

Is it possible that even Cahill, the only striker, should be replaced?

Do not!
As soon as the thought came to Moyes' mind, he pinched him off.It's not that Moyes still wants to score goals, but that Cahill is still on the court. Even if he doesn't get the ball, his presence can at least contain a lot of energy in Liverpool's defense.If there are no strikers, then Liverpool can really attack Everton wholeheartedly.

Moyes suddenly felt tired.

Could it be that Li Wei is really his nemesis?
Liverpool's state has been so bad recently, it was as fierce as a pair of Everton immediately.

And how can they run so well?It's not ten players from Everton against eleven Liverpool players, but ten players from Everton against eleven animals named Liverpool players!
…………

The initiative of the game was shifted to Liverpool's hands little by little. The Everton players couldn't overwhelm Liverpool for half the time, and they were overwhelmed.

Everton, who was exhausted, was finally torn apart by Liverpool's crazy running.

No. In the 404th minute, Pirlo passed the ball through, Suarez stopped and dribbled, like a slippery loach, it was wiped into the penalty area at once.

Jagielka stretched out his foot to stop Suarez in a hurry, but Suarez stayed, but the football passed slowly.He tripped Suarez inside the penalty area without touching the football.

"Beep!" Atkinson pointed twelve yards decisively.

Don't say that Atkinson has an opinion on Everton because of Rodwell's affairs. Even if he has no opinion, he can see clearly that Jagielka has touched people, but not football.

The Everton players did not give up and protested.

Atkinson said with a cold face: "Push it away, the penalty will not change! And I have shown mercy and did not give Jagielka a yellow card!"

The Everton players did not withdraw, and they did not dare to besiege Atkinson again.

As Atkinson said, he has really been merciful.

Of course, Atkinson can't do without mercy. Jagielka already has a yellow card. If he really shows a yellow card, Jagielka will turn two yellows into one red and go back to the locker room to accompany Rodwell.

And Atkinson's red card just now has caused great dissatisfaction among the Everton fans, booing overwhelmingly, and now that Jagielka is sent off, Everton can face Liverpool with nine players.Atkinson was also a little apprehensive, he was afraid that the game would really get out of control, especially if there was a fan riot.

Li Wei also knew Atkinson's concerns. Although he yelled a few words on the sidelines, he didn't get entangled with Atkinson.

Originally, the captain Pirlo should have taken the penalty kick, but Li Wei decided to reward Suarez. The foul on Rodwell, Suarez did so beautifully.He signaled Pirlo to hand over the football to Suarez and let the Uruguayan striker take the penalty.

There is no trouble with Paris Saint-Germain, Pirlo is not a striker, he has no pressure to compete for the Golden Boot, in fact Pirlo has never been a contender for the No.1 scorer list.Coupled with Li Wei's authority in the Liverpool team, the title of a king is enough to explain everything.

Suarez happily took the football and stood in front of the penalty spot.

He pushed the lower right corner, but this time Everton goalkeeper Howard was so brave that he predicted the direction of Suarez's shot and flew to save the penalty.

"Wonderful save! Howard saved Everton!" The commentator also praised Howard's performance.

Suarez knelt on the ground with a look of remorse.

Pirlo went up to comfort the opponent. The penalty kick just has a relatively high success rate, but it doesn't mean that the penalty kick will definitely be scored.Of course, in addition to the BUG of Bashen, so far Balotelli has taken a total of 100 penalty kicks, with a 2013% scoring rate. It was not until September 9, 23 in the game against Naples. His penalty was blocked by Reina for the first time, but even so, Li Wei remembered that before he crossed, Balotelli seemed to have missed such a penalty, and his penalty success rate was 90.00%. Above!
…………

When the game restarted, it was already in the stoppage time period of the first half. The 3 minutes of stoppage time passed quickly, and neither Liverpool nor Everton were able to create another chance to score.

When Suarez left the field, Li Wei hugged him and comforted him: "It doesn't matter, it's just a penalty kick."

The Everton fans on the sidelines didn't sell it. They didn't show mercy because of Li Wei's tenderness. They sang a song they made up temporarily.

"Penalty kick! Penalty kick! Suarez came to take the penalty! We are relieved! Levi cried! We are happy!"

Very crude tune, very crude lyrics, but they succeeded in irritating Levi.

He waved his fist towards the stands, but what attracted the triumphant smiles of the Everton fans, they successfully angered the bastard Levi!

…………

Back in the locker room, although Liverpool came back with a score of 0:0, Li Wei did not ask the players to do better. He praised the performance of the whole team, but he did not focus on who performed better. good.

This is Levi's characteristic. He rarely praises a certain player by name in the locker room, unless he does a really good job.

After praising the players to a limited extent, Levi made demands on them in the second half.

"Run! Still run! In the second half, I want everyone to run, take the Everton players to run, force them to run, run until they can't keep up with our rhythm, Everton will collapse soon! We We must wear them down mercilessly! You must have such self-confidence, in the whole of England, no team can run better than us in nine 10 minutes of game time!"

"I want all Everton players to have the illusion that we are playing twelve Liverpool players!"

…………

Compared with the relaxed atmosphere on Liverpool's side, the situation on Everton's side is much more troublesome.

Because Moyes didn't know what he should do well.

It stands to reason that after Rodwell was sent off, Moyes should make substitution adjustments during the intermission, replacing an offensive player with a defensive midfielder.

But looking at Everton's current lineup, you know that there is no need to change defensive players at all.Needless to say, Phil Neville and Fellaini in the midfield are all players with good defensive capabilities, especially Fellaini, who is 194cm tall. He can be used as a center forward and a central defender when he retreats.

Osman, one of the two full-backs, is characterized by his inability to run to death. He is commonly known as a midfielder. His contribution in offense is not as great as in defense.Another full-back Coleman, although he is now playing the position of a full-back, he actually made his debut as a right-back in Everton, and was only recently transformed into a right-back by Moyes.This is another defensive player pretending to be an offensive player.

So Everton have no attacking players?

Have!
Forward Cahill, but the reason for not replacing Cahill has been mentioned above, so I won't repeat it here.

Moyes finally found that he could only dryly feed his disciples chicken soup for the soul.

"This is our home court, we absolutely cannot allow Liverpool players to be presumptuous in our home court! The second half will continue to play the same way as the first half, and if we keep the current score, we will win!"

"They just have one more player than us! It's nothing. We strengthened our running in the second half. We can prove that even if there is one less player in the game, Everton is still the best!"
