Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 513 Crash?

In the two days before the arrival of the midweek game, Liverpool had two heavy rains, and it turned to rain on the night of the game day.

Anfield has been managing the turf in recent days to avoid affecting the quality of the game.

In the cold wind and rain, the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals kicked off at Anfield.

Situ Yunbing walked into the stadium about 15 minutes earlier.

Many fans cheered for him. An old lady caught his attention. She was wearing a Liverpool jersey and kept waving to Situ Yunbing. Go up to the stands and come to her.

The old lady looked energetic and excitedly said to Situ Yunbing: "Son, I just want to tell you face to face, as a fan who has supported Liverpool for more than 50 years, I now fully support your work 100%, you are not one of those who have achieved A guy who gets cocky after some victories, I can see that, go for it!
I can also tell you that Liverpool fans like me will support you! "

Situ Yunbing nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you very much, you are the one who made me truly feel the greatness of this club."

The old lady saw that Situ Yunbing did not perfunctory her, so she said even more excitedly: "Liverpool is indeed a great club, but we haven't tasted the taste of the championship for a long time, I mean the real champion, which can make the fans happy The champion of the whole summer, now your appearance gives us hope!

It's good to see that Liverpool are winning all the time, whether it's good or bad, good or bad, we're winning.

But I also have to be honest, I am more afraid than excited now in my heart!
Ferguson may be a jerk against Liverpool but he has to admit he is a great manager because of him Man Utd are the different team and my friends and I have been chatting lately worrying about our expectations It ended up being a disappointment.

I don't want to put pressure on you, I just expressed my true feelings. We can see your efforts, the changes you have brought, and your determination to reshape Liverpool's image. No matter what the result is, we will continue to support it you! "

Situ Yunbing has mixed feelings in his heart. This is a real fan who will come to watch the team's games regardless of the wind and rain. Maybe she is not the most eye-catching one in the flag-waving, maybe she doesn't take Liverpool every day. Talking about it, but the years have proven her love for Liverpool.

Situ Yunbing stepped forward to hug her and smiled at her: "Believe me, no team, no one can stop Liverpool!"

After saying that, Situ Yunbing waved to the surrounding fans, and walked out of the stands to the sidelines amidst cheers.

In fact, he is also afraid in his heart, and he also worries about gains and losses.

But he can never, never show it!
In Liverpool, when the sky is falling, he has to go up!
It is not only the responsibility to this club, but also the defense of my own life!

After the starting players of the two teams entered the field, many Liverpool fans in the stands looked dignified.

Liverpool's determination to fight for the championship is fully reflected in the formation of troops.

There are a lot of main players, and Liverpool obviously does not intend to let Benfica retreat from Anfield!

But the consumption of rainy days and the physical impact of continuous combat are incalculable.

Situ Yunbing is taking risks and gambling!
This is also reasonable, Situ Yunbing has never been an absolutely conservative coach in style.

Benfica still has a certain strength, with veteran Cardoso on the front line, new star Andre Gomez, veteran Aimar in the midfield, and Garay on the back line.

However, the rainy venue affected the technical performance of both sides, causing them to make many mistakes in the delicate passing and cutting cooperation, which affected the enjoyment and excitement of the game.

Situ Yunbing stood on the sidelines and watched the two teams perform poorly in the rain match. Time passed by. After 30 minutes of the game, Situ Yunbing shook his head slightly on the sidelines.

If this fight continues, not only will Liverpool have no absolute chance of winning, but I am afraid there is still the possibility of losing.

Due to the expansion of uncontrollable factors, Liverpool is also facing a situation where they may lose the ball at any time.

So Situ Yunbing gestured to the players on the sidelines to ask them to change their tactics.

Suarez is left on the front line, Gareth Bale and Mahrez, Gerrard and Eriksson focus on strengthening long shots!
The advantage of this is that it can turn the unfavorable factors of the rain battle into relative advantages.

The slippery field has a certain negative impact on the goalkeeper's long-range saves!
After Situ Yunbing's tactical adjustments, Liverpool's long-range bombing gradually showed its power.

In the 44th minute of the game, Benfica had turned to defense and wanted to end the first half smoothly.

But Eriksson caught Benfica goalkeeper Moras by surprise with a long shot after receiving Mahrez's pass!
After the football bounced off the ground in front of the small penalty area, there was a change in the speed of friction and acceleration. At the same time, the strength of the rebound was different from that of the normal field. Moras fought hard to save, but in the end he only touched the football with the lower half of his palm. The football still flew after pressing down. Into the goal!
Liverpool took a one-goal lead in the first half thanks to Eriksen's long-range shot.

During the intermission, Situ Yunbing readjusted his technical and tactical style of play, shooting long shots if there is no space, and creating opportunities for Suarez if there is space!
The two teams changed sides and fought again in the second half after adjustments in the midfield. Benfica tried to speed up the game, but today's venue and weather conditions greatly restricted the technical performance of both sides.

"Joker" Aimar, as Messi's idol, must have strong technical strength, but his performance today is very bad, because too much reliance on technology has formed resistance due to site conditions.

He was tackled frequently by Casemiro, Benfica's rising star Gomez was in a similar situation, and Liverpool improvised on the pitch.

In the 58th minute of the game, Gerrard's long-range shot from outside the penalty area caused the goalkeeper to make a save. Although Suarez took the lead in possession of the ball in the penalty area, he was still caught in the encirclement. Under normal circumstances, Suarez would have to choose Trying to get rid of the breakthrough in a small range, but at this time he hit the ball across the right rib of the penalty area.

In the next step, Mahrez, who followed up and cut into the right rib of the penalty area, blasted a volley with his left foot and sent the ball into the upper left corner of the goal!

Liverpool lead by two goals at home!

Benfica fell behind by two goals, but they were a little discouraged. It probably felt that the combat environment today was bad and they could not show their strength.

In fact, Liverpool's strength has not been fully utilized. Although it is undeniable to have the advantage of home court, the weather and venue conditions also restrict the characteristics of Liverpool.

Seeing that it was difficult for Liverpool to create opportunities for Suarez, they simply continued to shoot long shots.

In the 77th minute of the game, Casemiro received a return pass from Suarez from outside the penalty area and shocked everyone with a long shot. About 30 yards from the goal, the football fell into the Benfica goal through a parabola, shocking the audience !
Excited Reds fans in the stands at Anfield!
Now they no longer worry about whether Liverpool's overall championship will turn into a full-scale collapse!
At least this game allowed them to see that Liverpool did not show signs of collapse, which is good!
With a three-goal lead, Situ Yunbi began to withdraw his troops, and gradually passed the time by substituting players and lowering the tempo.

Benfica has already retreated, so they don't have the energy to counterattack again, but they don't know if they still have the confidence to complete the comeback against Liverpool at this score!
When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, Situ Yunbing breathed a sigh of relief, and then went to shake hands with the opposing coach after the game.

The big advantage of 3:0 makes Situ Yunbing consider rotating in the second round of confrontation!
Liverpool sits at Anfield on the weekend against the Hammers to help West Ham United.

Although the weather was fine for Liverpool, the team's state failed to recover. It seemed that the midweek game had really affected them too much, resulting in the failure to release their combat strength at home.

West Ham United defended with all their strength in the away game, only relying on counterattacks to threaten Liverpool, with little effect.

At this stage, West Ham actually has nothing they want. As long as they don't collapse in the last 6 rounds of the league, they can't be relegated, but if they want to qualify for the European war, there is no hope.

But now many teams want to attack Liverpool even if they have no desires!
The image that Situ Yunbing created to the outside world this season is actually very hated. Even though he seldom looks complacent after victory, he still seems to have an aura of natural dislike.

Liverpool kept changing their style of play, deploying troops, but just couldn't break through West Ham United's goal. Gareth Bale hit the crossbar with a shot and Gerrard missed a golden opportunity in the penalty area.

Liverpool finally ended in a 0-0 draw with West Ham United at Anfield!

The Liverpool fans in the stands were full of worries, and even Situ Yunbing felt a little short of breath immediately after the game.

Faint scalp numbness!

If Manchester United win this round, then the gap between the two teams will become 5 points!
There are still 6 rounds in the league, and Liverpool's championship is really hanging!
But in an interview after the game, Situ Yunbing could not show any worries, but took the initiative to put pressure on Manchester United.

"Our performance today cannot be said to be bad, but it is definitely not worthy of praise. It is a pity that we failed to beat West Ham United. The opponent's strict defense took them away from here. One point.

We have now scored 80 points, Manchester United is 72 points, if Manchester United beat Manchester City at home in tomorrow's game, then Manchester United will close the gap with us.

I think it's up to Manchester United now to see if they take their chances, and even if they win, it won't be the end for Liverpool, we're still ahead of them! "

After the post-match interview, Situ Yunbing stood in the player tunnel with his back against the wall and took deep breaths repeatedly to adjust his state.

The pressure of leading the team in England is something he has never felt in Monaco or Hamburg!
Because Liverpool is a giant, because of the horror schedule of the Premier League, because of the influence of public opinion from the media, etc.
He lowered his head slightly and muttered to himself.

"You can't get discouraged, you can't lose, you can beat everything!"

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!
