Chapter 150 The Old and Strong "Cheetah"

"beep……."

In the long whistle of the referee, the Europa League focus match between Liverpool and Anzhi officially began.

The right to kick off in the first half was on Anzhi's side. Traore kicked the ball to Eto'o from the center circle, and Eto'o passed the ball back to his teammate Youssier. Coach Guus Hiddink's big killer in the midfield. As for Eto'o, he is responsible for scoring goals.

After Yossie took the football past the middle circle, he didn't continue to break through Liverpool's dense defense. Yussley stopped the ball for a while and then gave the ball to Zhirkov on his right. Under Kefu's feet, he maintained absolute concentration.

"It seems that Zhirkov has no way to get rid of the kid in front of him for the time being. Maybe he will be helpless under the defense of Liverpool teenager Cody today." Gary Neville, who was in charge of the game commentary, said in the studio. As a former England international, Neville affirmed his young juniors.

"Haha, old man, the game has just started, let's watch it." As a partner, Martin Taylor replied to Neville with a smile, which is his usual commentary style.

After several rounds of offensive and defensive transitions, the time came to 7 minutes. Anzhi was on the offensive side, Zhirkov was holding the ball on the field, and Coady was in charge of following him.After several unsuccessful attempts, Liverpool had Henderson come up to help defend. Zhirkov could only choose to pass the ball back to Youssire behind him. Youssire did not stick too much after getting the ball.

These quick transfers of the ball were between Henderson’s help defense and his return to his position. When Henderson helped Coady defend Zhirkov, it was Joe Cole who filled his position.

Eto'o's transfer of the ball left teammate Boussofa with the only "obstacle" on the right side of the road. Jose Enrique quickly dribbled the ball to the front of Liverpool's penalty area. Facing the defensive Jose Enrique, Boussofa did not continue to dribble into the penalty area. This is not a skill that Moroccan midfielders are good at. The defenders who pressed Liverpool hit the ball, but unfortunately Traore's forehead was too hard, and the ball finally went above the crossbar and flew out of bounds.

"Damn it, it was just a little short!" After landing, Traore clapped his hands and was very dissatisfied with his header. The Anzhi fans at the scene cried out that it was a pity when they saw the ball fly out of bounds, while Liverpool was frightened.

……

"The cold and snowy night in Moscow seems to have kept Liverpool in a slow heat. On the contrary, Anzhi's side has become more and more aggressive on the offensive end. In Anzhi's frontcourt, Eto'o continued to create a lot of trouble for Liverpool's defense." As time went by, Martin Taylor, who was the commentator, was also analyzing the situation on the field.

"It's true. It's been half an hour since the game. Liverpool had one or two good shots on offense, but this is really abnormal for their striker. Lin Tian, ​​Suarez and Sterling seem to be still lost in the snow in Moscow. I hope they can find their status as soon as possible." Gary Neville then analyzed the current situation of Liverpool on the topic of partners.

As analyzed by the two commentators in the studio in England, Liverpool's downturn was in stark contrast to Anzhi's excitement, which also made Liverpool coach Rodgers stand up early and keep shouting at the field.

On the coaching bench on the other side, Anzhi's head coach Hiddink sat on the chair calmly. He is quite satisfied with the current situation on the court, although the team has not yet taken the lead.

Hiddink's satisfaction is mainly due to Eto'o's performance on the court. Like Joe Cole, Eto'o, who is also 31 years old this year, can be said to be old and strong on the court.

Although the Cameroon superstar has reached the end of his career, his speed advantage is still very good, and the nickname of the African Cheetah is still well-known.In addition, the advantage of being old and strong is super rich experience. His off-ball running is even better now. As long as there is space, the African cheetah is still so superior, and it is still the super killer that makes defenders fearful.

Ahmedov was injured and replaced by Casella Gonzalez in the No.209 minute. As the time passed, the first half time also came to the stoppage time stage, and the fourth official also raised the 3-minute stoppage time electronic card to inform the audience.

In the first minute of stoppage time, Anzhi sent a throw-in in the backcourt. Gonzales, who came off the bench, received the throw-in and then made a long pass to Zhirkov on the sidewalk. Zhirkov and Youssire's collision with the wall made Cody helpless. Zhirkov continued to dribble the ball back to his feet, and then a curved kick from the outside of the penalty area was hit by Jones. Zhi is in hand.

Traore gave the ball diagonally to Bossofa on the side. Facing Henderson who came to steal, Bossofa sent a through pass from Henderson's left side. Eto'o's early running allowed him to easily receive Bossofa's through ball.

Eto'o dribbled forward quickly, and Coates and Carragher on Liverpool's defense went forward to "close the door" on the Cameroon superstar, while the frequency of the African cheetah's feet continued to accelerate. When the three were about to meet, Eto'o swayed a fried ball with both feet and passed between Coates and Carragher!

Eto'o passed!That's it!
There is only goalkeeper Jones in the penalty area!
Eto'o, who had countless experience facing the goalkeeper, calmly and easily shot the ball to the far corner of the goal with his right foot. Jones, who fell to the ground trying to block the ball's route, could only look back at the ball rolling from his left side into his snow-white net.

1-0!

Eto'o's goal!

A healthy African cheetah!
