Chapter 289
No. 60 In the second minute, Juventus launched an offensive and hit Liverpool's 30-meter area.

Mandzukic took the ball in the middle, and he naturally attracted the attention of Liverpool's defense to the middle.

But at this time, Mandzukic suddenly passed the football diagonally to the right, where Pogba was.

The talented boy received the ball in the corner of the penalty area.

Liverpool's left back Johnson quickly moved up and blocked Pogba, preventing him from having a chance to break through or cross.

The distance between the two people is very close. If Pogba wants to pass with his legs, Johnson can either directly extend his feet to poke the football away, or he can raise his legs to block the pass.

But this kind of defense couldn't stop Pogba. He showed his genius - no run-up, no obvious leg swing, just a slight lift of his leg, and then he suddenly picked up the football and passed it towards the goal. forward!

The cross was so sudden that Johnson, who was standing in front of Pogba, didn't even react. He just watched the football fly over his head. He quickly turned to look, only to see Morata jumping. Fight for the top with Skrtel in the air.

He got stuck in position and squeezed the Greek center back behind him, but he also paid the price for it. When he jumped up, he had to use more strength to fight against Skrtel behind him. Under the interference of the latter, , he can hardly stand up to football...

But when he was heading the ball, he caught a glimpse of a figure wearing a red and white jersey in front of the goal. He couldn't see clearly who it was, but this figure was like a beacon in the dark, letting him know where to go. Where to push the football.

So he tried his best to push the football in that direction. As for what happened next, he was powerless and could only leave it to God...

God did not disappoint him.

As the football flew toward the goal, Cuadrado made a smart move and got in front of Salah, who was focused on watching the ball but ignored the people around him. Then he jumped in front of Salah and made a header!
He hit the football.

Less than three meters away from the goal, he hit the top of the football and smashed it to the ground.

Even though Mignolet made a save for the approaching summit, he was powerless - he did not touch the football and could only watch the football fly into the goal he was guarding...

"This ball... the ball has been scored!!" the Italian commentator shouted excitedly. "Cuadrado! This is Juventus's first shot in this game, and Cuadrado equalized the score for the team! This is his official goal for Juventus since he joined last season. His No. 12 goals, he has scored ten goals in the past three months, which is already equivalent to the total number of goals in his career in the previous three seasons!"

"There was something wrong with Liverpool's defense. Salah wasn't marking people tightly, and Cuadrado got stuck in front of the goal. This is really terrible..."

He Wei was a little surprised: "When Liverpool had the advantage before, who would have thought that it was Juventus who scored the goal? Did the players become a little too relaxed because Liverpool had the advantage? It's better now... The score was equalized and the two sides returned to the same starting line... No, Juventus may still be half a body ahead. This game is definitely acceptable to Juventus as a guest, so they can continue after equalizing the score. Play steadily and slowly grind against Liverpool. But Liverpool can't afford it. If they want to win this game, they have to press forward and attack. This will naturally widen the space behind them. Juventus can also take the opportunity to counterattack. I'm afraid when the time comes There was a tremor in front of Liverpool's goal... Just one goal caused a subtle reversal in the situation of the game..."

Having said this, He Wei sighed softly.

Before, he thought Liverpool was in a very good situation, not a small one, but a great one. It was a great situation.

As a result, in just ten seconds, the situation changed like this.

Will Liverpool players become impatient and confused after losing the ball?
He Wei is not sure, but he is sure that the Juventus players will be inspired by this goal. No matter whether they are going to attack or defend next, they will try their best to cause trouble for the Liverpool players.

This is football. A team is forced to play for more than 60 minutes. The first shot of the game can score a goal, thus reversing the situation of the game.

Such things were not made up, but actually happened before his eyes...

The Juventus players celebrated excitedly after the goal. They certainly deserved to be so happy to score and equalize the score in such an unfavorable situation.

Now that we have equalized the score, should the next step be a reversal?

After the game restarted, Juventus' morale was high. They didn't just shrink their defense. They began to try more attacks, hoping to score another goal in a short time and completely take the initiative.

In the 604th minute, Morata made a pass from the left. Cuadrado stopped the football with his chest at the back point. At the same time, he dodged Johnson who rushed to defend him, and then eight meters in front of the goal. Half volley shot!
Fortunately, Mignolet played steadily and well, and his shot went over the bottom line!

Juventus was awarded a corner kick.

The corner kick was taken by Sturaro, and it was Juventus center Morata who jumped high in front of the goal and hit the football!

He was about seven meters in front of the goal and made a powerful shot to the top!

Goalkeeper Mignolet rushed over desperately, but he didn't know whether he could definitely save the football.

Fortunately, Liverpool midfielder Lovren was still guarding the goal post. He took the first kick and kicked the football out!
And it wasn't until he kicked the football away that Mignolet's hand arrived - without Lovren's kick, the ball might have really gone into the goal...

It’s really scary to think about it!
The Liverpool fans in the stands also let out a burst of exclamations.

Morata held his head in his hands, feeling very sorry.

"Lovren has made a meritorious service!" He Weiwei shouted. "His clearance on the line of the penalty area is really crucial! Cuadrado's goal just now was due to Morata's header, and now Morata almost scored directly...Liverpool can't be careless..."

And just when everyone was still feeling lucky to have escaped, Liverpool's head coach Klopp had already made his decision to adjust.

He asked the assistant coach to call a warm-up player back.

The name he gave was: "Jordan Abby." He did not choose Milner, who had to be outstanding, but chose the young guy in 95.

The assistant coach was stunned for a moment. He thought it would be Milner or Can, but Klopp chose Jordan Abby instead. You know this is the Champions League, so let a young man play like this?He couldn't understand Klopp's decision at first, but after he got rid of this emotion, he quickly understood why Klopp made this choice.

So he turned around and ran towards the warm-up area.

Liverpool's most precious time now cannot afford to waste a second.

Jordan Abby, who has been warming up on the sidelines, did not expect that the head coach would think of him first when the team was in trouble.

"Me?" He poked himself with his thumb and asked the assistant coach for confirmation.

"Of course it's you!"

So Abby followed the assistant coach and ran back to the coaching bench.

This move was also captured by the live broadcast camera and released for everyone to see - Klopp will be the first to make adjustments.

When Abby appeared on camera, many people reacted the same way as Buvac did at first - surprised.

Everyone couldn't imagine that when the team encountered difficulties, Klopp would choose a young youth training player.

Is this going to give up the game?

"Why not Milner?" "Why not Emre Can?"

The commentators all asked similar questions.

When everyone was surprised by Klopp's choice, Abby was already standing in front of Klopp.

Generally, when making substitutions, the assistant coach will explain the tasks and arrangements to the players after playing. The head coach is not responsible for this specific matter.

But this time, it was Klopp who stood in front of Abby.

Klopp asked him in English: "Do you know why I chose you?"

Abby shook her head.

He glanced at Abby who was eager to try and said.

"If you are asked to play at this time, you will be under a lot of pressure and face huge resistance. These pressures and resistance will make you perform abnormally. But now Liverpool does not have time for you to grow, and you must prove that you are worthy. Joining this team, if you can't handle the pressure, leave the team as soon as possible, I will tell you now what to do when you get on the field..."

When Abby was being coached by the coach off the court, Lin Yi also noticed this change on the court.

Klopp actually chose Abby?
Lin Yi set his sights on the head coach.

Lin Yi felt that this choice was not something Klopp just randomly named on the list of substitute players. It must have Klopp's special meaning in it.

So why did Klopp choose Abby?
Lin Yi glanced at the big screen.

The whole game lasted 607 minutes, and the score was 1:1.

Since Juventus equalized the score, their offensive has been very fierce, and they almost scored again just now.In comparison, Liverpool was a bit depressed during this period.

Under such circumstances, replacing a young and impactful player seems to be a good choice...

Lin Yi understands why Klopp chose Abby. In comparison, Xiao Heizi's momentum is really suitable for the moment.

After Abby patiently listened to the tasks assigned to him by the coach, he went to the sidelines to wait for his appearance.

No matter how everyone thinks of Klopp's substitution adjustment, it cannot change the fact that Jordan Abby is about to play.

When some Liverpool fans saw Abby standing on the sidelines, they couldn't help but put their heads in their hands and lamented: "Isn't it? Why is he a youth training player? Is our head coach lost his mind? It's over, we are going to die. Got it!"

When Abby replaced Henderson, there wasn't much cheering in the stands.

"Abby came on for Henderson... Klopp's substitution was very... well, bold."

Replacing a famous star with a new player will put a lot of pressure on both Klopp and Abby.If Abby performs poorly, people will definitely question Klopp after the game whether such a substitution was appropriate.

"I don't know why Klopp made such substitution adjustments, but now it seems that the situation is gradually becoming favorable to us..." The Italian commentator was a little confused, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

Henderson is a famous star after all. Although he wasted several opportunities in this game, as long as he is on the court, he will always pose a threat to Juventus' goal.

Now, Klopp has replaced this threat with a newbie, which will certainly make Juventus supporters sigh.

Despite everyone's unfriendly and sarcastic looks, Abby ran onto the court with her head held high.

After replacing Henderson, he had no adjustment instructions arranged by the head coach to convey to his teammates.

He just walked across the field and appeared in his position.

When the game resumed, everyone's attention on Abby quickly passed.

After all, the game is what attracts the most attention.

How can Liverpool get out of its current predicament?

This is what everyone is most concerned about. As for how Abby is doing, that doesn't matter.

However, as soon as Abby came on the court, he actively participated in the game, making it impossible for people to ignore him.

In the 609th minute, Royce passed a diagonal pass. Abby ran hard into the empty space, stretched out his feet to pad the ball passed by Royce, and passed the football to Salah in front.

Then Salah turned and shot, and the ball flew into the goal past Buffon, who had his arms raised high.

The Liverpool fans roared with cheers.But soon, their cheers came to an abrupt end because they all saw the referee's raised arm - this meant offside!
Who is offside! ?
The slow motion showed that Salah was not offside, but when Royce passed the ball, Abby was offside. Although it was only half a body, it was offside after all.Because he passed the football to Salah in an offside position, even if Salah was not offside, the goal could only be disallowed.

"As expected, young people can't be trusted at this time!"

Some fans complained.

They felt that if Abby did not touch the ball, Salah would have no problem catching the ball.

But if Abby doesn't touch the ball, they don't care much about whether Salah can still catch the ball...

In their view, Abby is very active, but also very reckless, so they would rather Abby not be so active, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble will be caused... Then it will be like this time, and Liverpool's The goal was messed up, and they would never let him go!
Especially after seeing that Abby did not apologize at all for being offside this time, many people became even more dissatisfied with him.

But there are people who disagree with them.

"Hey, Abby!" Lin Yi shouted Abby's name loudly on the court. When Abby turned to look at him, he gave the opponent a thumbs up. "Just run! Be positive!"

Lin Yi used words and body language to encourage the youth training boys who were promoted to the first team this year.

He didn't know if Abby would be affected by this offside, but he didn't want Abby to have any scruples about it.

Encouraged by the core of the team, Abby grinned.
