Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 274 Let him force him, I have Chen Xiaoliang!
After falling behind by one goal, Liverpool did not seem to panic. In terms of experience in major competitions and the number of appearances in the Champions League, they completely beat the team in front of them, Roma, who have missed the Champions League in the past four seasons.

But Chen Xiaoliang's performance on the field tonight can only be described as a fish in water, the reason is very simple, no one in Liverpool's midfield can limit him.

Experience is experience. For competitive sports, no matter how rich the experience is, there must be a fresh body to carry and play it.

The average age of Liverpool's starting lineup is 27.6 years old, while the average age of the 11 players in Rome is only 24.9 years old, which is almost 3 years younger.

I don't have as much experience as you, but I have something more important that you don't.

vitality.

Facing Chen Xiaoliang and Enzo who were jumping up and down, and because they lost their position and lost a goal just now, Fabinho dragged behind and did not dare to run around.

Elliott's task is more on offense, coupled with his own limited defensive ability and relatively average physical fitness, even the two midfielders approaching Rome will not play much defensive role.

On the contrary, the 37-year-old Milner has become the most desperate one in the midfield, trying to use running to limit Chen Xiaoliang's ball routes.

But after all, he is at this age. Facing Chen Xiaoliang, who is already known for his physical fitness, more often than not, he only shows that he has more than enough energy, but even so, the old captain is still trying his best to support the attack and defense of the England giants.

I don’t know what Henderson, Naby Keita and others who were sitting in their residence in Merseyside watching the game and were unable to travel with the team due to injury were thinking.

Liverpool's ball possession rate has been rising steadily. By 10 minutes, this data has reached 65%, but what about the number of shots?

Embarrassing 0.

In the 9th minute, Milner received a pass from Robertson on the left side of the midfield, and Nunes retreated to respond, wanting to make an unusual wall kick with Milner to mobilize the defensive position of the Roma players.

In the end, I don't know whether Milner's pass was too heavy, or Nunes stopped the ball with too much force, and he stopped the ball 1 meter away with a simple pass.

Nunez himself was also taken aback, and hurried forward to regain control of the ball, but how could Gwadiol, who had been following him out behind him, give him a chance to regain control of the ball and grab it before his feet touched the ball? Flashed out from behind, fell to the ground and poked the ball forward with his left foot.

Chen Xiaoliang, who was originally retreating to help defend, was very satisfied with Gwadiol's decisive and decisive defensive action. He caught the ball destroyed by his new teammate, and just turned around and took a few steps towards the emptyest area in the left front midfield. Ready to push forward and counterattack, Milner rushed over from his right side, released a flying shovel, his feet missed the ball at all, but his body knocked down Chen Xiaoliang's foothold leg and knocked him to the ground.

"Eh! Eh! Eh!"

Mourinho jumped out of his seat like an electric shock and went straight to the sidelines!

You can tolerate not scoring a penalty kick, and you can tolerate losing a goal. Treating your own captain, core, and heart with such actions is absolutely unbearable!
The referee Grande and the fourth official on the sidelines both gave Mourinho a back and quiet gesture, but that was all there was to it. The more than 5 Roma fans in the stadium were dissatisfied and they couldn't help it. stop.

Grande blew the whistle, called Milner back who was about to pretend to be okay and ran away, gave him a warning, and then showed him a yellow card.

Milner shook his head, seemingly dissatisfied with the referee's penalty, but actually frustrated with his slow start.

That's 10 years younger and I haven't...

Forget it, Milner thought of this, and stopped thinking about it.

In the stands, Gerrard didn't have the same idea. If he was 10 years younger, he would be able to face Chen Xiaoliang on the field.

The traces of the years run over everyone mercilessly, and it is fair.

Chen Xiaoliang was pulled up by Enzo and Matic, and gave a thumbs up to the coach to show that he had no problem.

His physique is 15, and his injury is only 2. Once the two attributes are superimposed, even with a slightly larger movement, it is quite difficult for him to get injured now.

Roma took a free kick, still not sticking to the ball, Enzo pushed it to Celik, Celik pushed it to Dybala, and Dybala tried to pass behind Robertson before he came to harass him.

Van Dijk, who is currently worth 5000 million euros, was also a candidate for the "World First Guard". Facing such an obvious pass and the loss of Cesko's anti-offside just now, he directly kicked the ball Destroyed the sideline ahead of time.

The head coaches on both sides are applauding.

Klopp is naturally encouraging his players, hoping that successful defenses will revive their morale.

And Mourinho expressed his approval for the players to strictly follow the tactical arrangement and play simple and fast football.

He firmly believes that with such a penetrating through ball and counter-offside, Liverpool can defend 1 or 2 times, but certainly not 10 or 20 times.

If you're lucky, Sesco's goal post just after the opening, the score at this time is already 2 to 0.

Liverpool slowly advanced to the frontcourt. Salah, Firmino and Elliott continued to make small-scale passes at the front of the penalty area, trying to use the defense back and forth to create a space for their teammates to advance forward.

But in the face of Rome, which only left Dybala and Cesko wandering in front, and the other 8 people all returned to defense, the agile Mane left in the summer, which still greatly reduced the creativity of this offensive line.

Passed back and forth, no one can run a lethal route, and no one can immediately send a through ball that is not offside.

Mourinho sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. This scene was really comfortable.

For the defensive counterattack team, the most fearful thing is that the opponent does not press up. If the opponent does not press up, it means that there is no large space behind the opponent, which means that even if the ball is exchanged, it may not be able to penetrate the opponent's defense immediately.

And in a game like this one where they are leading at the beginning, Liverpool will definitely not be willing to accept the result of an away loss, so Mourinho, who has set up a defensive line in the midfield, only needs to wait for the opponent to take the initiative to attack again and again, and then look at his disciples They quickly played back to the opponent's half after defending successfully again and again.

He didn't even let Cesco and Dybala put pressure on the opponent's defenders, allowing Van Dijk, Robertson and others to advance and play the ball steadily.

It also arranged for Kwa to retreat to participate in the defense on the left. First, there is Salah on the left, and it is not enough to rely on Malaysia's defense alone. Enzo and Kwa have to join in.

On the other hand, Kwa's active retreat can allow Arnold to advance more unscrupulously to participate in Liverpool's attack on the right, so that Kwa will have more space behind him to use when counterattacking.

In the 14th minute, Milner had nothing to do with Matic's marking on the left. He chose a wide range of crosses and transferred to Salah on the right. However, the ball passed a little stronger, and Salah ran to the sideline. , still failed to head the ball back into bounds.

Malaysia immediately asked for the ball from the caddy and threw it to Kwa, who was closest to him.

Arnold, who was returning to defense after Kowa received the ball, happened to pass by him and immediately stretched out his foot to interfere. Kowa didn't stick to the ball and chose to pass it back to Enzo safely. Enzo kicked the ball to Chen Xiaoliang in the middle.

Chen Xiaoliang, who came towards the left side of the field to catch the ball, looked up and swept the ball before it rolled in front of him, then pushed forward with his right foot against the rolling ball with the outside of his foot, and the ball immediately flew in a straight line. Flew to the front field!

The ball passed over Fabinho's head, and then over Gomez's head. Neither of them realized what happened. They only heard the exclamation from all the Roma fans. When they turned their heads, they saw the ball going forward. Cesko and Van Dijk were fighting close to each other, squeezing each other, confronting each other and running forward.

In the second year, Chen Xiaoliang and Cesko almost did not see each other for a day.

Run together in the morning, have lunch together, practice together, watch the game together, and play football games together. Fortunately, both of them are male and female, and there is Helena who is always "watching" at home. In Europe, where tens of thousands of people hold rainbow flags and parade naked in the city center in support of gays, it is not surprising that something really happened.

It's a pity that the tacit understanding value of the system is only 4 gears, but this is enough for Chen Xiaoliang, who has passed 18, to describe almost every pass to Sesco as being perfect.

This ball Cesco was on the left outside, and Van Dijk, who discovered that Cesco was going to be offside in advance, hit the inside on the right, and Chen Xiaoliang's pass fell on the left front of Cesco in the penalty area.

Cesco can catch the ball with the trend, and Van Dijk has to go down and stretch his feet to tackle if he wants to destroy it.

Seeing that the two ran 7 or 8 meters side by side, Van Dijk still failed to push Cesco away, and Klopp was also surprised.

The two core assistants behind him, Lindes and Kravitz, also looked bad.

A 31-year-old UEFA best player, best team defender, and Premier League player of the season is evenly matched with a 19-year-old young center forward in physical confrontation. Is this a distortion of training or a loss of transfer?
But the surprise is the surprise. At this moment, Cesko knows best that when the ball is defended by Van Dyke, most of his strength is used to maintain his body balance, even if Chen Xiaoliang passes it to him The ball was so good that he didn't have the space and strength to complete an accurate shot after catching the ball, at most he was stunned.

This kind of oppressive feeling from the former Shi Yiwei was something he had never experienced before!
Cesco stretched his right leg and got the ball with his right foot. He wanted to force it into it. He didn't have any pressure. He was not Shi Yifeng, and he was not even the number one striker in Serie A. He lost to Fan Dai in the one-on-one confrontation He is not ashamed, so he can do whatever he wants without burden.

However, just after he hit the ball with his right foot and lifted his left foot, he and Van Dijk twisted their limbs at the same time and fell to the ground together!
Alisson, who was guarding the near corner, received the ball. Seeing that the referee Grande did not say anything, he immediately threw the ball to Gomez outside the penalty area.

Van Dijk got up and returned to the offense, Cesko still fell to the ground, covering his left foot.

Due to the distance, Chen Xiaoliang suddenly passed a through ball, and Shui didn't see clearly what happened between Sesco and Van Dijk.

Kewa and Dybala raised their hands high and signaled to the referee to stop the game. Chen Xiaoliang hurriedly retreated to defend, but he also knew in his heart that Sesco, a stunned young man, would not deliberately fall to the ground like this. It must have happened. What, either Van Dijk fouled, or he was really injured.

Fabinho received the pass from Gomez and passed it directly to Salah who was plugging in. Fortunately, Patricio attacked early and hugged the ball on the edge of the penalty area.

At this time, Cesko was still lying in the penalty area.

"Beep!"

Grande blew his whistle and ran back toward Sesko.

Alisson on the side walked up to Sesko and said something in his mouth. He didn't know whether to ask him about his situation, or to tell him to stop pretending and get up quickly.

Mourinho and Klopp on the sidelines also looked confused. It was already far away. In addition, the Olympic Stadium in Rome is a comprehensive stadium. There is a standard 400-meter runway around the stadium. The nearest stand on the sidelines The fans on the Internet didn't see why two people fell to the ground in a flash, and one got up as if nothing had happened, but the other refused to get up.

Not to mention the fans in the high-level stands.

When everyone was looking at each other and asking each other "what's the matter?", Grande had already come to Cesko and looked down at him.

In the next second, the Spanish referee made an unexpected move. He turned and walked to the sidelines, and at the same time made a square gesture with both hands!

Lou Yichen: "Let's watch! After an attack passed, the referee made a gesture to watch VAR!"

Liu Yue: "It seems that the video referee team reminded the referee what really happened in the confrontation between Van Dyke and Sesco after watching the replay just now."

Lou Yichen: "Normal matters will not allow the referee to make such a decision. The game is only 15 minutes and 50 seconds away. Will there be another penalty kick?"

Liu Yue: "This ball can only be judged by Grande himself."

Lou Yichen: "The referee walked to the sidelines, and Klopp came over and lowered his head to ask, but Grande didn't say anything. If two penalties are awarded in a row, the pressure on Uncle Zha will be great in this game. "

The fans at the scene were restless, whether it was Roma or Liverpool fans, they were all waiting for the referee's final penalty.

But the fans in front of the screen have already seen the picture synchronized with VAR.

Lou Yichen: "I stepped on my foot! I stepped on my foot!"

Liu Yue: "If you look at it through this lens, it is definitely going to be a sentence. Sesco hit the ball first, and then Van Dijk stepped on the instep of his right foot."

Lou Yichen: "This is what we mentioned before. Cesco is tall and has long legs. His two long legs are really fast. Gomez's side is often lost by him. target, and then can only rely on Van Dijk to defend, and once Cesko rushes up, Van Dijk can only interfere with the opponent's movements with his own physical impact."

At this time, the referee Grande turned his head and muttered into the microphone as he walked, seemingly telling the entire referee team his decision.

Both Mourinho and Klopp stood on both sides of the inner side of the coach's command area, watching Grande's every move.

"Beep!"

Grande blew a whistle, and then made a VAR gesture with both hands again.

"Beep!"

At the second whistle, he pointed to Liverpool's penalty area!

"yeah!!!"

All Roma fans immediately raised their hands and cheered!
Lou Yichen: "The house leak happened to be raining overnight! Only 17 minutes into the game, Liverpool were awarded two penalties!"

"And Grande, who returned to the field, also showed a yellow card to Van Dijk!"

Liu Yue: "The last defender, although he made a foul, made a small move and gave a yellow dot package."

Cesko stood up by this time.

Klopp hated it very much, but there was nothing he could do.

Is this a 19-year-old player?Who taught him to emphasize to the referee team that a foul occurred in the penalty area by insisting on falling to the ground?
Ordinary players have already gotten up and chased the referee, yelled and complained non-stop, but that would strengthen the referee's sense of resistance and reduce the possibility of making a penalty.

As long as someone is lying down on the field, the referee must stop the game. Did Mourinho give refereeing lessons in Rome?
Klopp thought in his heart, with mixed feelings.

But he guessed it right, Mourinho really often tells players some unpopular football rules that can be effectively used at certain times.

In addition to Cesco's trick of falling to the ground, forcing the referee to stop the game and allowing the video referee team time to look at the replays, the former Chelsea captain Terry also said in an interview that Mourinho once asked him to stop the game. At the end of the game, Cahill and Cahill can take the method of falling to the ground at the same time to delay time.

Because according to the rules, when a player is injured and falls to the ground, the team doctor can enter the field for simple treatment, but the referee will not allow too long to interrupt the game, and will let the player go to the sidelines for treatment or wait until the game resumes. Return to the court when the ball is dead.

But according to the rules, once two central defenders are injured and fall to the ground at the same time, the referee cannot let them leave the field at the same time to continue the game, because this will cause great unfairness to this side.

Once Terry saw Cahill fell in the penalty area after colliding with an opponent, and he fell immediately. The referee came over and asked him to leave the field for treatment. Terry told the referee, "You can't do this, the rules don't allow it. If you don’t believe me, ask the assistant referee”, but the referee really asked, and came back later and told Terry, “You are right”.

Just like the ball just now, if the game is postponed, the video referee team will not have enough time to review what happened at that time carefully, and once the time of the incident is far away from the game time, if there is still time to If a new foul or even a goal occurs, it is very inappropriate and will cause a lot of controversy to go back to the past through VAR.

So resolutely falling to the ground and forcing the referee to stop the game is the best way to give everyone a breathing space.

At this time, Chen Xiaoliang and Dybala came up again, and they signaled Cesco to continue to take the penalty kick, but Cesco felt that the kick just stepped on by Van Dijk was really serious, and he himself A penalty kick has already been conceded by the captain, and this ball cannot be taken again.

Chen Xiaoliang looked at Dybala: "Then you come."

Faced with such a good thing, Dybala of course accepted it with a smile.

Seeing Dybala pick up the ball and put it on the penalty spot, Gwadiol in the backcourt was dumbfounded again.

What's the matter with this captain?How do you feel that asking him to kick a penalty is like telling him to step on a landmine?For fear of avoiding it, give it all to others.

I remember that there is a goal bonus in the contract of this club. One goal is not a lot. Does the captain have a "penalty kick bonus" in his contract?
The players of both sides stood still, and the referee Grande whistled again!
"Crack! Crack!"

Before Dybala could run up, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson bent down and clapped his hands vigorously, trying to interfere with Dybala's emotions and thoughts.

Unlike Cesco, who is right-footed, Dybala's penalty with left foot is to run up from the right back of the ball.

Lou Yichen: "Dybala... run-up... hit the goal!"

"Eh!!!"

"Shoot again! Hit high!"

"Alisson turned the tide! Saved Dybala's penalty to the left of the goal! Then Kvaratsheria came up to volley and it was high!"

Liu Yue: "Half-high ball, Dybala's kick should be to hit the upper corner but he didn't get the right part. According to his level, he shouldn't kick the goalkeeper's favorite half-high ball in the penalty kick. This is the best side kick. Areas that can be easily stretched and covered."

Lou Yichen: "I don't know if Alisson's pounce will be a turning point in the game!"

Kwa's supplementary shot flew directly out of the baseline, and Dybala sighed in the sky, not for his own data, but for wasting the team's opportunity to expand the lead.

In a game, two penalties in the opening 17 minutes, and the Champions League is facing a top club like Liverpool. Where can I find a second round of such a golden start?

As he walked back, Dybala touched his head, feeling embarrassed and showing regret.

Inspired by this goal, Liverpool seemed to have received a shot in the arm, and played the most threatening attacks since the start in the next 10 minutes.

In the 22nd minute, Enzo tripped over Salah, who was retreating to catch the ball while defending on the left. Grande awarded a free kick. Arnold took the penalty from a long distance and shot directly. The ball was slightly higher than the crossbar.

In the 25th minute, Arnold, Elliott, and Fabinho hit the wall consecutively and cooperated with each other. When they came to the ribs of the penalty area on the right, Arnold pretended to catch the ball and pass it from the bottom, but Elliott took advantage of the defensive attention. When the power was taken away, he suddenly sent a through ball to Salah with a small forward swing.

Salah took the ball with his back in the penalty area, and Gwadior immediately greeted him. The Egyptian pharaoh first swayed his body to the left to make a fake turn, trying to deceive Gwadior's center of gravity, and then suddenly turned left. Pump the ball towards the goal with your main foot and left foot!

Gwadiol dare not blindly stretch his legs to block in this position. The speed is too fast and the time is too short. If it happens well, it will be a block to the outside of the penalty area.

However, he is confident that his body has blocked Salah's most threatening shooting space. With this kick, he turned around and volleyed, and the only place he could hit was the far corner of the goal!
Although the 34-year-old Patricio is inevitably going downhill from his personal peak years, for a goalkeeper, this age is still the tail of the golden age when experience and body can be combined.

Well-maintained goalkeepers, such as Van der Sar, Neuer, Kahn, etc., can still perform well when they play around 36 or 37 in giants.

Not to mention that there is another Buffon who left the giants after 40 years old and is still playing in Serie B in Parma at the age of 44.

Gwadiol's position has long allowed Patricio to make a judgment. Although it cannot be completely ruled out that Salah turned around and hit the dead corner for the sky, it is impossible for the goalkeeper in this case. Stop and think over and over again before making a decision. You can only make a subconscious first judgment by relying on the muscle memory and conditioned reflex formed by countless training and competitions.

Sure enough, the ball flew from the left side of the penalty area to the upper right side of the goal, and because the shot was turned around, the force was not strong enough, and the speed was not fast. Patricio did not rush sideways too hard, and hugged the ball firmly with both hands.

This is also Liverpool's first shot in the range of the goal frame in this game, and it also alerted the players in Rome.

However, Liverpool's attack, which seemed to be about to start, suddenly stopped.

The reason is also very simple. He played on the right side twice in a row, mainly attacking the line of Arnold, Elliott and Salah, so that Chen Xiaoliang, who was in charge of intercepting in the middle of the midfield, consciously moved to his left side to join the attack. Line defense.

On the other side, for nearly 30 minutes, Milner, who was trying to cover the midfield and kept running, was a bit struggling. In addition, Firmino frequently moved in the center to echo Salah's attack on the right. The defensive pressure on this side is not great.

Klopp also found out, but he has no good solution. He can't get Mane back from Bayern again, not to mention that he is determined not to break the salary structure in the team and not to renew the contract with a higher salary for Mane. Agreed and finalized.

No way, Liverpool's total salary expenditure is already the second largest in the Premier League. Unlike Manchester United's high basic salary, Liverpool's salary structure is low salary and high bonus. In the case of good performance in recent years, their bonus expenditure is amazing.

But as he gets older, when the 30-year-old Mane is facing the last big contract of his career, he definitely hopes that the basic salary can be higher, so that he can have stability when the team's performance declines and injuries prevent him from playing. income and security.

Mane's current weekly salary is about 18 pounds, and the amount he asked to renew his contract is 36 pounds. Liverpool can't afford this figure, but Bayern can give it.

It would be fine if it was only Mane, but the contracts of Salah, Firmino, Henderson, Naby Keita, Thiago, Matip and others will expire in the summer of 2023 or 24 .

Now that Mane's weekly salary is doubled, what should the others do?If they all do this, then Liverpool's total salary will explode in situ.

So they would rather let Mane go for 4000 million euros, buy another Nunes with a total transfer of 1 million, and try their best to maintain the salary structure.

Furthermore, in the whole year of 2021, the number of jersey sales worldwide is about 120 million for Messi, 105 million for Ronaldo, and 97 for Lewandowski. What may surprise many people is that Salah ranks first. 4. About 81.6 pieces, surpassing the 5 pieces of No. 79.9 Mbappe.

Neymar ranked 10th, with only 54.7 pieces.

Liverpool will sell 2021 million jerseys in 245, and Salah alone will account for one-third, while Mane only ranks 8th in terms of jersey sales in the team...

Therefore, in addition to salary, Mane's request to have the same status as Salah in the club can only be rejected by the Liverpool board of directors.

No way, in the final analysis, professional football cannot survive without the market and capital. Salah has a huge influence in the Arab world, which is unmatched by pure black African players represented by Mane.

People who shout about political correctness, equality of color, and equality of race will not actually pay for it.

Klopp and the board of directors were originally confident that Mane's departure would not have much impact on the club's mature system and stable player team.

But now there is no regret medicine, and whenever a reporter asks this question, Klopp will say that Mane left with love for Liverpool.

The assistant coach Lindes behind him looked at the statistics. The left back Robertson has played a total of 18 passes so far, and 16 of them are cross passes or return passes.

The full-backs couldn't launch an attack, and the midfielder couldn't support it. The left winger Firmino couldn't get support from the midfielder, so he had to retract to find more opportunities.

Liverpool stared at the right side and fought hard, and Roma naturally stared at the left side.

There is no strong support from the midfield, and there are many defensive players on the side. In the end, we can only rely on Arnold's strong attack and Salah's dribbling to create opportunities.

Can this work?

Just look at Mourinho, who is sitting on the bench in a calm mood, and you will know that this kind of style of play that clings to a winger and has no supernatural personal ability is impossible to be effective.

Salah is indeed very strong, but he is not strong enough to defeat Malaysia, Enzo, and Chen Xiaoliang who is behind him in defense.

What's more, in order to defend against Salah today, Malaysia basically never left its own half, and all the offense on the left was handed over to Kwa.

In the 28th minute, Salah got the ball from Arnold again. Facing the encirclement of Enzo and Malaysia, he took the ball with his left foot and wanted to pick it for Arnold who was inward from the wing and wanted to go to the center.

How can such a good opportunity be missed, Chen Xiaoliang made a stride, jumped up and headed the ball back, and gave the ball to Matic behind him.

[Superstar mission: 5 times when Salah played the ball to complete the block or steal]

[Task progress: 1/5]

As soon as Matic got the ball, he saw a red figure in front of the right rushing forward, still waving to himself. Such a veteran, or a veteran who has driven the bus of three clubs with Mourinho, would not notice it. To this rare counterattack opportunity.

He sent the ball directly with a long pass with his left foot!

It's Dybala!

Although he started a beat earlier, he and Robertson did not have an advantage in fighting speed!
But Dybala never thought of breaking through the last full-day defense by himself. After catching the ball, he took a few steps. After being caught up by Robertson, he immediately stepped on the ball and pulled it inside, and then moved forward with his left foot. Send a straight plug!

Cesco started to the right in front, and ran towards the right side of the penalty area with Van Dijk who was following him on this half of the field!

After the ball, Dybala did not stop, but chased after Sesco and was ready to respond at any time. At the same time, he also attracted the defensive attention of Fabinho, Milner and others who returned to defend.

After all, in Rome, Chen Xiaoliang is the most famous now, and after Chen Xiaoliang performed a contract renewal soap opera with Juventus in the summer, he joined Rome's Dybala with a high profile.

Carrying a yellow card, Van Dijk, who had already suffered a loss from Cesko, couldn't figure it out. Why didn't Cesko directly fight with himself this time, but ran outside to avoid him on purpose?

Generally speaking, when encountering a central defender like himself who has already had a yellow card, the most common way for a striker is to make a close-up bunt to force the central defender to foul again, or dare not make moves because of a yellow card. The opponent occupies an advantageous position.

But no matter how powerful Van Dijk is, he can only see the space in front of him during high-speed pursuit and marking, and cannot see what is happening behind him.

Sesco rushed to the right side of the penalty area and took a few more steps, slowed down slightly at a 45° angle to the goal, and immediately raised his legs!
Van Dijk stepped forward and stretched his legs to block the shooting route, and this is what Sesco wanted!

He dunked with his right foot and passed back in an inverted triangle!
At that moment, Van Dyke's heart turned cold!He can only pray that the right center back Gomez and right back Arnold behind him can keep an eye on the Roma player who was passed.

Arnold, who was preparing to cooperate with Salah outside the penalty area in Rome just now, saw the Roma striker who had already run to his own half, and knew that even if he got in the car and stepped on the accelerator, it would be too late to run back to his right, so he simply didn't Returning to defense, at this moment, he just slowly ran back to the center line.

And Gomez once again showed Klopp and the majority of Liverpool fans his "good" defensive awareness and "excellent" competitive state.

He was the same as the previous two defenses, but he was retreating quickly all the way, his eyes were on Sesco and Van Dijk who was defending Cesco, and he thought that there were no Roman players around him.

Suddenly, Kewa's figure inserted from his left rear, received Cesco's inverted triangle at the penalty spot and shot into the goal!
Fortunately, Van Dijk didn't see it, Gomes couldn't see it, and Arnold didn't want to see it, but Alisson, who was facing the front, saw everything.

He immediately attacked and rushed towards Kewa!

It was this pounce that made Kewa fail to shoot the goal immediately, but took a step forward and adjusted it!
Lou Yichen: "Shoot!"

"Ball...Van Dyke!!!"

"Van Dijk will pay for it! Run back from Cesko and block Kvaratsheria's shot on the goal line!"

Liu Yue: "This ball still showed Van Dijk's ability and experience. After seeing Cesko's fake shot and real pass, he turned his head and ran to the goal line immediately, filling the space behind Alisson who was hitting. "

Lou Yichen: "Rome, oh Rome, you wasted two great chances to score!"

"Kvaratsheria played the ball too well!"

In the face of Kwa, who had a painful expression, his eyebrows pressed tightly, and a face of regret, and Cesko, who was panting because he failed to score a goal, Chen Xiaoliang came up to comfort them.

He patted Cesko on the back: "Damn it, fake shot is real, you kid imitated me again..."

Cesko: "It's a pity I didn't enter, Ryoko..."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xiaoliang pulled the two of them back, but turned around and gave them both a look.

At this time, the time went to 30 minutes.

The score was still 1-0.

Although Liverpool has most of the possession, anyone can see that Roma is completely in control of the game. If there is no problem with the goal, this game is already 3-0.

But against a team like Liverpool, there is always something unsettling about squandering chances repeatedly, despite their woes.

In front of the goal, Alisson took the goal kick and passed it to the right center back Gomez.

This decision will also make him completely regret it.

The moment he hit the ball, the three of Chen Xiaoliang who were running back immediately turned their heads and launched a high-position press forward.

After 30 minutes, Roma, who didn't even want to control the ball, came suddenly, and Gomez, who was still in shock when he almost lost the ball, was stunned after receiving the ball!
In a panic, he saw a white teammate and passed forward, and then Kwa kicked him off!
Dybala, who had retreated halfway to the center line, saw it, and quickly plugged it in again!

Even the few Liverpool players who were panting while preparing to reorganize their offense began to retreat urgently.

Kwa took it to the left side of the penalty area, Chen Xiaoliang was outside the penalty area, Kwa faced Arnold, and Gomez behind Arnold began to dribble and test in small steps.

The passion in his heart told him that he wanted to pass this 7000 million euro worth right back to prove himself, but the rationality on the other side told him that in a small space with many people defending, he should not act so recklessly alone.

After taking a few tentative steps, he pushed the outside instep of his right foot to Chen Xiaoliang on the penalty area line.

Chen Xiaoliang caught the ball and put his body directly in front of the goal, making an attacking posture.

Want a long shot? !

In Liverpool, Klopp's coaching team has as many as 20 people. It is no exaggeration to say that the level and meticulousness of the coaching staff can crush any big club in Serie A. The Premier League team is far ahead in terms of profitability The other four leagues also invested the most in related behind-the-scenes resources.

Their pre-match analysis of the Roma players was as meticulous as they have done in the past few seasons.

But all the coach can do is teach, and the execution depends on the players. How well they execute, the coach standing on the sidelines can only resign himself to fate.

As soon as Chen Xiaoliang received the ball, Gomez and Arnold immediately blocked Chen Xiaoliang. It is said that his shooting ability outside the penalty area was passed down from Gerrard's mantle, and it was the soul of the Red Army who taught him in Glasgow.

Thinking of this, the two dared not neglect, but Chen Xiaoliang lightly passed the ball, and the ball rolled past the junction of the two, and Kwa, who was confronted with the two just now, ran up to catch the ball against Alisson. One-on-one situation.

Alisson, who was still in the middle of the goal to deal with Chen Xiaoliang's long-range shot, ran to his right at this moment, and Van Dijk once again wanted to make up for the goal line to block the shot.

Kwa, who missed a chance to score a goal, would not waste a second time. He hit the bottom of the ball with his right foot and directly blasted the upper corner of the near corner from close range!
Alisson hasn't arrived yet, even if he makes a saving posture, it won't help.

Lou Yichen: "2 to 0!"

"Winger Kvaratsheria from Georgia didn't waste any more chances and fired an angry shot from the near corner to help Roma open the score!"

"Up to now, the game has only lasted 31 minutes! And Liverpool have had enough chances to concede the ball 4 times! If it weren't for Alisson's high pick-up and resistance, it would have been a tragedy now!"

Liu Yue: "It's hard to imagine that he has just been in the team for more than two months. The support he has received on the left, whether it is Enzo or Chen Xiaoliang, the balls passed to him are very tacit, as if they have cooperated for a long time."

"Coupled with flexible running positions and excellent one-on-one dribbling breakthrough ability, last season Abraham, Pellegrini, Zaniolo, Zalewski, even Shalawi, Spinazzola The left wing, which has been tried in turn but failed, has completely survived."

"The state of Arnold and Gomez today is also unacceptable. They have been watching the ball but not the people, or not watching people at all."

Lou Yichen: "A fan left a message in the live broadcast room, he forced him to be strong, I have Kevara!"

Liu Yue: "Hahahaha, the version I saw before was that he forced him to be strong, and I have Chen Xiaoliang."

Lou Yichen: "Anyway, this game is based on the current situation. I believe the fans will have a lot of confidence in Roma's performance in the Champions League this season. You must know that they are facing Liverpool, the double runner-up in the Champions League and Premier League last season! "

Liu Yue: "Mourinho on the sidelines didn't celebrate much, but Klopp's disappointment is beyond words. The next step is to see if he has a way to adjust. Otherwise, with the current defensive posture, the remaining With more than 60 minutes in the game, Roma will definitely score again, and there will not be only one."
