European Reversal King!
After Liverpool reversed Arsenal [-]-[-], they won unanimous praise from the media all over Europe.

Head coach Benitez was absent due to surgery and was unable to command on the spot. The midfielder Javier Mascherano was absent due to a cold, and it was another strong dialogue against Arsenal in the away game.

So far this season, Liverpool has played many reversals, and it can be called the veritable reversal king in Europe.

After the game, Sky Sports immediately commented that Yang Yang's brace helped Liverpool reverse Arsenal.

"In the absence of the head coach and the instability of the defense, Yang Yang stepped forward at the critical moment and scored twice, leading Liverpool to a [-]-[-] away game against Arsenal."

"This is not just as simple as a three-pointer. More importantly, this is the first time Yang Yang has scored twice in the Christmas schedule since he joined the Premier League three years ago. And judging from his performance in this game, he is in a very brave state."

Sky Sports believes that the brace against Arsenal helped Yang Yang overcome another hurdle in his career.

"In the past two years, the Christmas and winter break schedules have always been Yang Yang's nightmare. At the end of the year and winter, his performance has declined, and he even fell into a scoring drought for a long time. But this time, he seems to be fully prepared."

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray also said that Yang Yang seemed to have stepped out of the shadow of the Christmas Devil's schedule.

"In this game, his double score not only helped Liverpool get a valuable three points, but also made people see his true superstar strength. Breaking this level will be a huge boost to his overall self-confidence and strength."

As a former professional football star, Andy Gray obviously has a good grasp of Yang Yang's psychology.

Yang Yang also said in an interview with Sky TV after the game that although he was happy with the two goals, the most important thing was to gain confidence and confidence. This game made him more confident that he could break the three-year resistance to the Christmas devil's schedule.

"I think I'm ready!"

……

Yang Yang received overwhelming praise, but Liverpool's performance was no less surprising.

The Times wrote a commentary that after Liverpool beat Arsenal, they will become the number one favorite to win the Premier League this season.

"As we all know, the small cycle of the Premier League is hailed as a major signal for winning the championship. The reason why Chelsea is not favored by the outside world this season is that the Blues' performance in the small cycle is a mess."

"But so far this season, Liverpool has won all the games against the other three in the small round of the semi-finals, and they have performed very well. So far, they have recorded [-] wins, one draw and one loss in [-] games."

The Times believes that in the past seasons, Liverpool's performance in the small cycle has been unsatisfactory. Even in the first few years of Benitez's coaching, Liverpool's performance in the strong dialogue is still not good enough.

But since Yang Yang joined, he has brought stable goals to the team, greatly improved Liverpool's offense, and completely changed this situation. Liverpool has performed very well in the small cycle in the last three seasons.

"After the small cycle of results, Liverpool's results in the league are also quite outstanding. One league runner-up, one league championship, and this season is the favorite for the league championship."

The Times believes that Liverpool's outstanding performance so far is inseparable from Yang Yang's outbreak, and looking at the entire European football world, Liverpool's performance is also second to none.

"The only one that can compete with Liverpool is Barcelona in La Liga."

"Pep Guardiola's team has maintained an impressive record of all four victories in the last four direct contests with its competitors, keeping pace with Liverpool, and this La Liga giant is also making great strides in La Liga."

"Although the Serie A league is said to be the only one of Inter Milan, although the Nerazzurri have a lot of points, they do not have the upper hand in the direct contest with their competitors, and even lost to AC Milan."

The Times finally concluded that in today's European football, the only teams with real top strength are Barcelona and Liverpool, and these two teams will also become the biggest highlights of this season's UEFA Champions League.

……

After Liverpool beat Arsenal, the draw ceremony for the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-] was also held at UEFA headquarters.

Liverpool qualified as the first in the group, and the potential opponents of the draw are the seven teams second in the group except Atletico Madrid. However, since Arsenal and Chelsea only got second in the group, strictly speaking, there are only five potential opponents.

Chelsea lost to Roma in the same group competition, and Arsenal lost to Porto.

The remaining five teams, Inter Milan lost to Panathinaikos, second in the group, Sporting Lisbon in the Portuguese Super League, Villarreal in La Liga, Lyon in Ligue [-], and Real Madrid in La Liga.

Liverpool's attitude towards the draw is relatively relaxed, because no matter who they encounter among these teams, the Red Army has enough confidence and chance of winning.

In the end, Liverpool drew Real Madrid.

As soon as the results of the draw came out, the whole of Madrid fell into a wail.

Everyone has no doubts about the strength of Liverpool, and now that Real Madrid has drawn Liverpool, the possibility of advancing from the top [-] is very slim. If they stop in the top [-] again, Real Madrid will lose face.

This is the number of years in a row that Galaxy Battleship has stopped in the top [-] of the UEFA Champions League, and people gave it the nickname UEFA Champions League Sixteen Lang.

Manchester United drew Inter Milan, Arsenal drew Roma and Chelsea drew Juventus.

The opponents encountered by the top four in the Premier League are not weak. If you want to advance, you have to show your true skills.

However, with the current strength of the Premier League, as long as they play steadily, it is not difficult to advance.

…………

…………

On the afternoon of December 26th, Liverpool Anfield Stadium.

On the first day after Christmas, the Premier League ushered in the focus of the No.19 round. Liverpool played against Bolton at home.

According to Premier League statistics, Liverpool and Bolton met on Boxing Day only once in history, and that was in [-], when Bolton won [-]-[-] at Anfield.

Time has passed and the two teams met again on Boxing Day after a century of absence, and it was still at Anfield, which made Liverpool fans very excited.

Benitez is still resting at home for this game, Mascherano is still absent due to a cold, and Yesterdan is in charge of directing the game. At the same time, the team has made adjustments for the No. 20 round of the Premier League the day after tomorrow.

In the eyes of Liverpool, playing Newcastle away is the key game.

After the start of the game, Liverpool played very actively. Whether it was Yang Yang and Gareth Bale on the left, or Benayoun and Glenn Johnson on the right, they all performed very well, frequently creating crises, and Liverpool also got corner kicks one after another.

No. In the 206th minute, Gerrard took a corner kick from the right, and Dirk Dirk made a poke shot before scoring, opening the scoring for Liverpool.

Then Liverpool continued to firmly control the situation on the field.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Gerrard sent a through ball in the counterattack. Yang Yang dribbled the ball into the penalty area with his left rib and hit a volley with his left foot from ten meters away, giving Liverpool another victory.

This is also Yang Yang's two consecutive league goals!
The whole Anfield stadium was cheering wildly for him.

In the past two years, everyone felt that Yang Yang had never been able to perform during Christmas and winter breaks. Even after he won the European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year, many people still questioned him.

This makes Liverpool fans feel very depressed.

Who would want their favorite star to leave such an obvious short version and weakness?

Well now, after Yang Yang entered December this season, instead of declining, his state has been rising steadily.

You know, so far this year he has won the best of the month in the Premier League in September, October and November. With his current performance and state, it is not impossible to win another December.

……

Amidst the cheers of more than 4 Liverpool fans, Yang Yang was also constantly boosting the morale of the team.

Subsequently, Yang Yang made a pass from the left, and Dirk Didier headed the goal, but failed to hit the right position.

With just five minutes to go before the last goal, Bolton tried a long ball into the Liverpool penalty area, but goalkeeper Reina struck decisively and got the ball out of the air before everyone else.

After the Spanish goalkeeper got the ball, he quickly moved forward, threw the ball with one hand, and threw the ball to Xavi Alonso, launching a counterattack quickly.

Xavi Alonso got the ball and rushed forward, quickly dribbled the ball across the halfway line, and split it to the left.

Gareth Bale sprinted forward along the left line at the fastest speed, and Welsh Flying Wing seemed to be flying. The speed was so fast that no one could catch up to him.

After chasing the ball, Gareth Bell stepped forward with his big feet, and sent the ball low and flat to the front of the penalty area.

Yang Yang has been lying in ambush near Bolton's defenders. He quickly advanced and got ahead of everyone. He pushed with his right foot and sent the ball into Bolton's goal again!

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!"

"5 minutes! Liverpool scored two goals in just 5 minutes!"

"Yang Yang scored twice again! This is his second consecutive match!"

"This Christmas, this winter break, Yang Yang ushered in a big outbreak of state."

"Gareth Bale performed very well in this attack. His speed on the left wing is really too fast."

"And Liverpool's attack, from Reina throwing the ball to Harvey Alonso to Gareth Bale, and finally to Yang Yang's final decision, the whole process only experienced four passes."

After Yang Yang scored the goal, he couldn't care about anything else. He rushed directly to Gareth Bale, hugged the Welshman hard, and thanked him for such a wonderful assist.

And Liverpool's other players also swarmed to celebrate the team's goal.

Three to zero, Liverpool is sure to win!
