Chapter 151

When the game progressed to injury time, Cheetah Eto'o's goal helped Anzhi take the lead, and then the game did not continue, and the referee directly blew the half-time whistle. Therefore, at the end of the first half, Liverpool entered the intermission with a score of 0-1 behind.

"Liverpool's entire team did not perform at their level in the first half. This may have been caused by the cold weather in Moscow. On the contrary, Anzhi, who played at home, showed amazing combat effectiveness from the beginning of the game. They not only led Liverpool on the back of the shot, but also became more threatening every time. Eto'o's goal at the end of the first half made Liverpool pay for their poor half-time performance. I hope Rodgers and his players can take advantage of the intermission time to summarize and adjust. In the second half There is still a chance to equalize or even overtake the score.” Martin Taylor used the intermission time to give a brief summary of the two teams, and then the famous England commentator did not forget to express his encouragement to Liverpool. In the European competition, of course, all the fans unanimously supported the club of their own country, there is no doubt about it.

"That's right, the midfield needs to be adjusted. Liverpool still have 45 minutes in the second half. The final result of this game is still uncertain. Of course, we must also affirm the excellent performance of Anzhi Club in the first half. Although Hiddink has been far away from the Premier League, he still has his own experience against former opponents. At the same time, I must also praise Eto'o. His performance in the first half can be said to be excellent, especially the final goal. This is a typical Eto'o-style goal. The 31-year-old Cameroonian When he is strong, the high salary offered by the Anzhi club is very correct." Gary Neville also expressed his views after his partner finished speaking.

"Speaking of 31 years old, don't forget that Liverpool also has a player who just turned 31 today." Martin Taylor joked to Gary Neville.

Of course, Gary Neville knew who his partner was talking about. He smiled and said, "Of course, I still know who the birthday person is today. I hope he can score in the second half and strive for a special meaningful birthday gift for himself on his birthday. The birthday person's luck should not be too bad."

After a short break at halftime, the match between Liverpool and Anzhi entered the second half, and the two sides changed sides to fight again.Liverpool kicked off in midfield, Lin Tian kicked the ball to Suarez, Suarez passed it back to Henderson behind him, Traore stepped forward to press, Henderson poured the ball to Joe Cole on the side, Joe Cole dribbled the ball to Anzhi's frontcourt, under the defense of Anzhi's two midfielders, Joe Cole passed the ball to Lin Tian who was in the open space in front, kicked the ball in front of him with just enough strength, Lin Tian touched the ball with his right foot while running forward and continued to break forward along the ball.

Lin Tian’s threat on the wing also made Anzhi quickly form a three-person encirclement. Obviously, Hiddink had already made a defensive arrangement against Liverpool’s three strikers before the game. In the Premier League, the three players who can kill the Quartet are enough for Hiddink to pay such attention. Everyone except Eto'o has to participate in the defense, and only in this way can we ensure that more defenses are aimed at the Liverpool strikers who are also in an offensive state.

Lin Tian was not in a hurry to transfer the ball to the teammates behind him for the double-teaming of the three opponents. You Xilei took the lead in destroying Lin Tian's dribbling route. You Xi Lei tried to destroy the ball at Lin Tian's right foot. Unfortunately, Lin Tian was not so easy to be cut off. He gently pulled the ball back with his right foot while Yu Xi Lei kicked out, and then stopped the ball and easily avoided Yu Xi Lei's kick.

After Youssile, Lin Tian continued to move forward. This time, it was Anzhi defender Rogashoff. Rogashoff didn’t think too much about Lin Tian.

Rogashoff friendly pulled up Lin Tian, ​​who he had shoveled down, and Lin Tian patted Rogashoff's thigh as he got up to express his understanding.After the Anzhi wall was lined up, the referee blew his whistle to indicate that the game would continue. At a position about 40 meters away from the goal, Henderson kicked the ball into Anzhi’s penalty area with his thigh force. Joe Cole, who had good consciousness, judged the impact of Henderson’s ball in the penalty area.

"Damn it!" Seeing that the ball almost went in, Joe Cole vented annoyed loudly. Rodgers also held his head on the coach's bench to express his regret that the attack failed to score.Fortunately, the rhythm of the second half was slowly taken over by Liverpool after Joe Cole's goal that was able to equalize the score by a slight margin. Obviously, Rodgers' adjustments to Liverpool's poor situation in the first half during the intermission played a role. There is also the birthday star Joe Cole who continues to have no luck.

In 9 minutes, Coates made a long pass from the backcourt and found Sterling near the middle circle. Sterling dribbled the ball for a distance and then passed the ball straight to Suarez. If Suarez's through pass is successful, then Joe Cole is a pretty good one-handed ball in the middle of the penalty area. Unfortunately, Tajibekov, who was staring at Suarez and retreating back to the goal, accidentally stretched his foot and hit Suarez's through ball. Joe Cole got it, so after a period of confusion, Joe Cole came to the penalty area with the ball. Although it was not a single shot, Joe Cole still got a relatively good chance to hit the goal.

After that, Rodgers replaced Lin Tian and Sterling one after another in the remaining time. Downing, who scored against Anzhi last time, also came off the bench. However, Liverpool repeatedly missed the chance to equalize the score in the remaining time.
