Revive Liverpool

Chapter 135 Suarez Banned 2
Liverpool and Wigan Athletic had a draw and had no choice but to accept a draw.

The gap between Manchester United and Manchester City has widened again. Fortunately, Chelsea, who are chasing behind, faced Tottenham in this round of away games. They also failed to win and did not catch up with Liverpool.

……

Regarding Suarez's suspension, the club and Suarez are discussing. Now Suarez is in the appeal period and can play. The FA's appeal period for Liverpool is until January 1.

Liverpool and Suarez discussed whether to appeal this. If he appeals, Suarez can continue the game, but if the final appeal fails and the relevant disciplinary officials determine that the evidence provided by the Red Army is insufficient, Suarez will be subject to more severe punishment.

So in the end, after discussing with Suarez, the club decided to swallow his anger, "It doesn't matter if he is three feet", but the specific games that Suarez will miss are negotiable.

Next, Liverpool will play against Blackburn at home in the league on December 12 before the New Year.
And the league game against Newcastle United at home on December 12.

After the new year, there will be an away game against Manchester City on January 1,
On the evening of January 1, the third round of the FA Cup at home against Oldham,
On the evening of January 1, the first leg of the League Cup semi-final away game against Manchester City,
On January 1, the league played against Stoke City at home,
On the evening of January 1, the league played away against Bolton,
On the evening of January 1, the League Cup semi-final second leg played against Manchester City at home.
On the evening of January 1, the league played away against Wolves,

On the evening of February 2, the league played against Tottenham at home.

It is very good to make a decision. If you appeal, if you fail, you will suffer a heavier penalty. Besides, the games you will miss after that will all be Premier League games, which will have the greatest impact on Liverpool's league record.

And now 8 games are suspended, including two League Cup games, one FA Cup game, and three domestic cup games, which will minimize the impact of Suarez's absence of 8 games on Liverpool's league record.

Therefore, Liverpool will definitely choose to waive the right to appeal in the third round of the FA Cup at home against Oldham, so as to minimize the impact of Suarez's absence on the league.

And before that, Liverpool still have three league games. Will Suarez miss it?

In the away game against Manchester City, Liverpool's chances of winning were not particularly great. It was a game that could be given up, so Liverpool also gave up strategically in this game.

And before that, Liverpool still have two league games, which is the home game against Blackburn on December 12 before the new year.
And the two games at home against Newcastle United in the league on December 12.

Liverpool is bound to win these two games. Except that they are not facing a strong team, and they are playing at home, they must win. Therefore, in order to ensure the victory of these games, Suarez must not be allowed to miss these two games.

So in the end, Liverpool decided to let Suarez tell the FA that he would accept the FA's 8-game suspension before Liverpool's away game against Manchester City.

The club has also stated that it will not appeal the matter again.

But the club and Suarez will definitely not admit that Suarez is a racist. Such a crime not only has a huge impact on Suarez, but also has a great impact on Liverpool, so killing him cannot be admitted.

In the two games before that, Suarez continued to start and give full play to his strength. I hope he will no longer be affected by off-court factors.

……

Christmas is coming soon, and Liverpool, as a football club, must be inseparable from the support of the fans.

Therefore, in such a major festival as Christmas, Liverpool players must have some interaction with the fans to deepen the connection between the fans and the club.

This year, due to time constraints, the Liverpool players were still training on Christmas morning, so the Liverpool players did not conduct community activities, but just shot a video and gave it to Liverpool fans.

……

12月26日15:00，英超联赛第18轮的比赛利物浦已经迎来圣诞赛程，这轮比赛利物浦坐镇安菲尔德主场迎战布莱克本。

Due to an ankle infection, Gerrard finally had a chance to play in this game. He entered the 18-man list of the game and sat on the bench.

This is probably the best news Liverpool has received for Christmas.

In the second half, the game changed sides and fought again.

In the 53rd minute, Meirelles took a tactical corner kick, and Glenn Johnson came to cooperate. The ball was sent to the back point and was caught by Blackburn's players. The header was cleared. The cleared ball was not far away and was still in the penalty area.

The second point was taken by Lewandowski, and then sent back to the back point, Maxi Rodriguez header from the back point, the ball crashed into the net.

Liverpool rewritten the score to a one-to-one tie.

In the 69th minute, Gerrard finally got a chance to play, he replaced Meireles, this is his first appearance in 2 months.

At this time, the atmosphere at Anfield also reached a climax, and all the fans stood up and applauded the appearance of the team soul.

Less than 1 minute after his debut, Gerrard's first touch of the ball gave people hope.His quick and flat free-kick found Maxi Rodriguez in the middle, but the latter sent the ball high.

In the 80th minute, Gerrard got the ball in the midfield and observed teammate Danny Rose's running route on the left, and then accurately distributed the ball to the left, helping Danny Rose pass in the best position, but Lewandowski, who outflanked the center, was not perfect and missed his head.

In the 83rd minute, Gerrard dribbled the ball in the middle. This time, he distributed the ball to the right. Griezmann on the wing chose to shoot directly, which was taken by Boone, who performed well.

In stoppage time, Liverpool missed the last chance for a lore. Glenn Johnson made a cross, and Lewandowski's header was miraculously resolved by Boone. In the end, the two sides drew one to one.
