Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 1038 A Dish
Tottenham visited Anfield Stadium, and Situ Yunbing was waiting for him.

Pochettino also seems to have the awareness of a famous coach, which made him understand that when fighting against Liverpool, no matter whether he can win or not, first of all, he cannot lose in momentum!

The tone before the game was tough, and I don't know if I really forgot the painful lessons of the past few years or if I got carried away after bleeding Manchester United in the last round.

Situ Yunbing had no intention of bullying Pochettino anymore, since the opponent was already defeated.

At home, he took the initiative to shake hands with Pochettino before the game, and then returned to the coach of the home team to sit down. He remained calm and waited for the start of the game.

Tottenham also worked hard in the second half of the league last season, and finally reached the top four, which gave Guardiola the most painful season.

This season seems to have a similar trajectory, at least the victory over Manchester United at home in the last round is very convincing.

But in the eyes of Situ Yunbing, it was just a strong performance in the civil war between the four groups. If they want to take advantage of the Premier League championship group, I am afraid they need not only their current strength, but also a lot of luck. OK.

Liverpool played their best at home, and Tottenham also put on the strongest lineup.

Amidst the loud cheers at Anfield, the focus battle between Liverpool and Tottenham officially began.

After the start of the game, Liverpool attacked on the right. Situ Yunbing will use Mbappe to focus on Tottenham left-back Trippier today.

Tottenham's offense naturally relies on counterattacks. The power of the trident led by Alli, Son Xingmin and Kane is getting better, but after Liverpool frantically strangled their midfield and perfectly cut their formation, Tottenham's counterattack can only be Let it go.

Mbappe received the offensive support of the whole team and frequently attacked Trippier's defense on the right. After being penetrated several times, the latter's mentality tended to explode, and his defensive actions also increased.

In the 31st minute of the game, when Mbappe received Casemiro's pass from the right, he pulled the ball and changed direction to avoid Trippier's interception. And with a flick of his arm to get rid of, Trippier didn't dare to foul too obviously, which made it too late for him to chase after Mbappe broke through and got rid of!

Mbappe quickly crossed the ball into the penalty area and then faced Vertonghen's spike and changed direction to the outside line before sending a diagonal pass.

Lewandowski made a diagonal run to the top right corner of the small penalty area and poked the ball into the near corner of the goal like a superficial touch!
Goalkeeper Lloris bears some responsibility for this conceded goal. The near corner was pierced, and the goalkeeper can't escape the responsibility.

When Lewandowski rushed to the sidelines to celebrate, the Red Army fans burst into wild cheers!
"OMG! Lewandowski received an assist from Mbappe and scored!

This is his 25th league goal this season!
This goal shows the strong tacit understanding and team spirit of the Liverpool team!
Why do you say that?

Because before this game, Mbappe and Lewandowski led the Premier League scorer list at the same time, and both scored 24 goals.

But we just witnessed Mbappe break through from the right and enter the penalty area and then take the initiative to play the ball for Lewandowski!
It is enough to see that Mbappe never cared about scoring goals by himself!

This is healthy competition within the Liverpool team!
Tottenham fell behind by one goal at Anfield, and the situation is very unfavorable to them, especially in the context of their almost no counterattack threat, it is difficult for us to see Tottenham taking away hope of victory at Anfield!
Of course, most people who come to Anfield now may not even think about being able to take away the victory from here.

Situ Yunbing has led Liverpool to remain unbeaten at home for more than five and a half years!
And Situ Yunbing's personal coaching career has been unbeaten at home for nearly ten years!

He lost only one home game in his personal coaching career. The opponent was Gourcuff Sr., which was also his coaching career debut.

Looking back now, I think old Gourcuff can proudly tell others that he beat Situ Yunbing in an away game! "

Tottenham fell behind in the away score, and Pochettino looked dignified, but there was nothing good to do.

Liverpool continued to launch a strong attack on Tottenham according to the tactics formulated before the game.

It's still on the right, and it's still about Trippier.

Although Liverpool failed to expand their lead at the end of the first half, Mbappe gave Trippier a yellow card.

Situ Yunbing did not make tactical adjustments in the midfield, and Tottenham did not bring him any surprises.

It's ridiculous to think about it.

The three teams in the first group, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Arsenal are all teams that insist on attacking and pressing in most games!
But the four teams, Chelsea, Tottenham, and Manchester United are all very conservative and rely on counterattacks and quick breaks to score goals most of the time!
If this is not enough to prove that conservative tactics are outdated, maybe the coaches of the four groups should really reflect on it.

Of course, the teams competing for the fourth group did not have the capital to take the initiative to attack the first group of teams, but they did not show surprising styles and arrangements in terms of tactics.

It is also a science to play a good counterattack. The impact that Mourinho brought to European football more than ten years ago was that a lot of psychology was added to the defensive counterattack, and the counterattack after exhausting the opponent's patience was tried and tested.

But now it is also a bit outdated.

Because the intensity of the competition is different, the improvement of technical gold content is also different.

In the past, people criticized the Premier League as rough. Although it is still not comparable to the technically delicate La Liga as a whole, if it is only compared with the Premier League ten years ago, the technical level of the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League is now obvious. promote.

Against this background, defensive counterattack tactics seem to have stagnated, at least those traditional representatives did not show distinctive changes and developments.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Liverpool's offensive pressure on the right still made Tottenham overwhelmed.

Trippier still failed to gain a foothold in the game after the break.

In the 58th minute of the game, Arnold and Mbappe teamed up to penetrate his defense. Arnold went down the right and then cut the ball into the penalty area and passed back to the inverted triangle area. Eriksson followed up and volleyed the ball directly. The bottom right corner of the goal!

Once again penetrated the goalkeeper's close-angle defense!
Situ Yunbing sat on the coach's bench smiling and applauding. At this time, Pochettino's expression was a little ugly.

The rhetoric before the game was so vulnerable in the game.

After all, Tottenham can't figure out their own positioning.

The team that impressed Situ Yunbing this season is actually Newcastle United. Their tactics when facing Liverpool are correct, but their mentality is not sure. After being equalized by Liverpool, the mentality was out of balance.

On the other hand, Tottenham lacks the determination and fighting spirit to do everything possible to grab points.

They want to win, this is a common mentality, but when they put it into action, they don't have the ferocity of biting their opponents like crazy!

The Trident is waiting for the ball in the midfield. What kind of situation does this put the defense in?
If Situ Yunbing was Pochettino, he would definitely not have the confidence to block such a crazy offensive from his opponent.

What Tottenham are waiting for is the opportunity to counterattack, but they don't have detailed counterattack tactics and specific ideas to create opportunities.

This is a big problem.

Because playing most teams, they'll have a chance.

But facing the first group, they probably won't have many chances.

After all, Trippier failed to survive the 70th minute of the game and received a second yellow card!
When Mbappe pulled the ball in front of him and evaded his counter-grab, he turned and shoveled Mbappe.

Although he prevented a threatening attack from Liverpool, he also let himself end in red.

Tottenham, who played one less player, were in a more difficult situation at Anfield.

Situ Yunbing began to make substitutions, using up the substitutions one after another to replenish new blood.

In the 78th minute of the game, although Liverpool's corner kick was cleared by Tottenham, Robertson made another pass from outside the penalty area and gave Griezmann an assist.

Griezmann grabs a shot from behind the goal and completes the goal!
This goal has nothing to do with the goalkeeper, and Lloris is powerless.

Liverpool beat Tottenham 3-0 at home!

Situ Yunbing was a little disappointed with Pochettino, feeling that the other party was just talking loudly.

Pochettino never imagined that he had just defeated Manchester United in the last round. He thought that the team's morale was high and they came to the away game to have a fight with Liverpool, but they were abruptly abused by Liverpool!

When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, Situ Yunbing stood up and took the initiative to walk towards Pochettino. After shaking hands with the opponent, he turned and walked into the player channel.

In an interview after the game, he was asked by reporters what he thought of Tottenham's performance.

He Situ Yunbing smiled and said: "I still maintain my previous point of view, Tottenham have not clearly defined their position, if they regard themselves as a relegation team, then they will have a better performance than today.

If you think I'm humiliating Tottenham, that's completely missing the point of my point!

Tottenham have a good lineup, but if they regard themselves as a strong team to face the game, they can win some games, but there will also be many games that are expected to win but end up losing points.

But if they regard themselves as a relegation team, then they may win more games than expected.

In any case, basically Tottenham's goal this season is to compete for the fourth place in the league, and there is no need for me to comment on Tottenham.

My task now is to lead Liverpool to continue to strive for victory in every game. Today's 3 points are crucial to us. I am satisfied with the overall performance of the team, but the moment to test us will be the next schedule, the European champions The knockout round of the league is about to start, and we still have the task of the FA Cup. I hope the team can allocate their physical fitness well. "
