This player is not professional

Chapter 295
Royce passed the football to him. When he received the ball, he was originally facing the offensive direction, but there was no good chance to pass the ball. At the same time, Monchengladbach players also pressed forward, so Lin Yixu He flicked the ball, turned the football behind him, and turned around to protect the ball, intending to look for opportunities to pass the ball again.

At this time, Xhaka came up from behind.

Lin Yi also realized that he might be stuck by the opponent's players, and letting the football stay at his feet would only increase the risk, so he decided to pass the football out.

Royce was right next to him, and Lin Yi raised his foot and swept the football towards him.

Just when he passed the football, Xhaka rushed up from behind and with a sliding tackle, Lin Yi, who had already passed the football, was knocked to the ground!
Lin Yi fell to the ground, and the Anfield stadium was filled with deafening boos.

"Oops!" He Wei from the studio behind couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw Lin Yi being shoveled to the ground. "This foul by Xhaka is very bad! This is a shovel from behind!"

With Liverpool constantly suffering from injuries, the most sensitive thing for Chinese fans is Lin Yi's health. After all, this is the only Chinese player in Europe and the hope of the whole village!

Every foul made by an opposing player against Lin Yi can arouse the tension and anger of Chinese fans.

Almost at the same time, countless curses flooded the screen on Chinese social networks.

"You son of a bitch Borussia player! This kind of shoveling from behind is just to destroy Lin Yi!"

"Damn it, this is a flagrant foul, it's not unfair to get a straight red card!"

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! Does that stupid big man from Borussia Monchenga know how to play football? Can he tackle someone from behind like this?"

……

Lin Yi, who was shoveled to the ground from behind, clutched his ankle after falling to the ground. He did not get up immediately, but lay on the ground with a painful expression.

It's very disturbing to watch.

Just when Lin Yi fell to the ground, Royce didn't even catch the ball and ran up to Xhaka.

Of course he didn't take action, but put his hands behind his back and roared: "What the hell are you doing?!"

Xhaka seemed to want to signal that Lin Yi was diving, but after being yelled at by Royce, he did not dare to say the words...

The referee immediately blew the whistle and rushed forward.

First, Royce and Xhaka were separated, and then he quickly took out the yellow card from his pocket.

This means to play a card, and just 1 minute ago, Xhaka just received a yellow card...

Seeing this posture, the players of Monchengladbach became excited. They surrounded the referee one after another, hoping to make the referee change his mind.

But how can they defend Xhaka?

Xhaka tackled Lin Yi from behind. This was something that everyone could see clearly. They couldn't open their eyes and tell lies like Xhaka. It must be said that Lin Yi fell, right?

This is too unconscionable...

They could only yell: "He didn't mean it, Lin slipped and fell..."

But this kind of unfounded argument was of no use. The referee quickly showed Xhaka a yellow card, then took out the red card from his butt pocket, showed the red card with his right hand, and pointed to the field with his left hand, signaling for him to get off the field.

"Ah! Red card! Xhaka was sent off! Within 2 minutes, he received two yellow cards in a row! The first foul was actually very unnecessary, and the second time was even more stupid. It was obviously impossible. Even after he kicked the ball, he still tackled Lin Yi from behind. I really don’t know what Xhaka was thinking at the time... After the game, reporters can ask him this question..."

This time, Xhaka no longer took the referee's decision seriously as he did one minute ago.

When he saw the red card, he did not end the game obediently. Instead, he ran to the referee again to defend and protest.

He insisted that his action was unintentional and could not be regarded as an intentional foul.

But I’m afraid even he himself doesn’t believe what he said...

Naturally, the referee didn't believe it even more.

Still pointing to the sidelines, he motioned for him to get off the field quickly and not waste everyone's time here.

Some Liverpool players also came up to remind the referee not to let Monchengladbach use this opportunity to delay the game. After all, Liverpool is still lagging behind...

On the other side, Lin Yi had been pulled up by his teammates. He moved his ankles, but there was no problem. Although Xhaka tackled him from behind, Lin Yi also made evasive movements and jumped up in time.If his supporting foot is caught between Xhaka's legs and pressed underneath him, it might be over...

Of course, just because Lin Yi escaped, it does not mean that Zhaka is innocent.How to deal with it or how to deal with it.

This can only show that Lin Yi is lucky.For a world-class player, luck is also a very important part. If he is always injured, even a talented player will not be able to become the world's top player in the end.

Think about how the former German genius Deisler fell?
Seeing Lin Yi stand up without any problem, Xhaka seemed to have more reason. He pointed at Lin Yi and said to the referee: "Look, he's not injured! He must be diving!"

The two were not far apart, so Lin Yi naturally heard what Zhaka said. He curled his lips and smiled, then shook his head and did not respond directly to Zhaka.

But Xhaka is like a drowning man, desperately trying to grab anything that can save him, even a straw...

He continued to shout: "He is still laughing, so he must have fallen!"

However, the referee did not listen to his nonsense and insisted on letting him leave the field, otherwise he would consider writing his behavior into the post-match game report and then impose additional penalties.

In this case, no matter how unwilling Xhaka is, he will have no choice but to end the game.

When he left the field, he was still mumbling, looking very unwilling.

Monchengladbach was faced with one less player at the 70th minute of the game.

Many Liverpool fans are very excited and think that Liverpool's opportunity has come.Some people even praised Lin Yi for his "smartness". Since Lin Yi was not injured, they tended to believe that Lin Yi must have used an exaggerated performance to cause Xhaka to be sent off, giving Liverpool a numerical advantage...

But professionals don't think so.

"Although Monchengladbach is missing one person, it may not be a good thing for Liverpool, it can even be said to be a bad thing - before this unexpected incident, it can be seen that Monchengladbach is not willing to be suppressed by Liverpool. As they continue to play, they also want to score another goal for Liverpool in the subsequent games and expand the lead to two goals again. This is easy to understand, because after all, a one-goal lead is not as safe as a two-goal lead... But with one less After the game, Monchengladbach, which is still leading by one goal, may immediately adjust its tactics and change its strategy from wanting to attack to shrinking its defense. With 10 minutes left in the game, it will try to hold on to this goal. Advantage. Once they start doing this, it will become difficult for Liverpool to score goals. Maybe they will let Monchengladbach hold on to this goal lead?"

He Wei also expressed the same concern: "The next game will be a difficult positional battle, but unfortunately there is not much time left for Liverpool. In the second 10 minutes, they had to score two goals - just equalizing the score is not enough Yes, although we already have three points in hand, this is a group of death after all, and any accidents may occur. A draw is very unwilling for the Liverpool players..."

After the game resumed, the situation on the field did change as the commentators said.

Favre made the first adjustment, replacing Johnson with midfielder Andre Hahn.

This is to strengthen the defense.

Subsequently, all Monchengladbach players returned to their own half to participate in defense, and most of them were concentrated in the 30-meter area inside and outside the penalty area.

Liverpool fought back with all their might.

So for a while, the game almost showed a "half-court attack and defense" state-Liverpool was playing against Monchengladbach, but Monchengladbach couldn't even get past half-time.

And the situation that the commentators were worried about also appeared on the field, that is, facing the densely defensive Borussia Monchengladbach, Liverpool actually did not have a good way to score goals. It was either a cross from the wing, a grab in the middle, or a long shot from the outside. .

But the first method requires a very good center in the middle. This center must not only be able to grab points, but also have excellent physical fitness, be strong enough, tall enough, and have good bounce.It's a pity that neither Firmino nor Lin Yi belong to such players.Once Monchengladbach's men retract into the penalty area and let people everywhere in front of the goal, Liverpool's shortcomings will be reflected when they need to attack.

The second method is to shoot from a long distance, but long shooting has never been an offensive method with a high success rate. In many cases, progress in scoring depends on luck.

But apart from these two methods, Liverpool has no better way.

There is no space in the penalty area and there is no way to pass the ball into it.

Lin Yi also tried to break through, but there were people in the penalty area. How could it be so easy to break through?
In the 704th minute, he broke through with the ball and fell in the penalty area, which also caused a burst of boos in the stands - Liverpool fans thought this should be a penalty kick, but the referee had no comment. Players also came up and angrily accused Lin Yi of diving.

Of course, judging from the slow-motion replay, Lin Yi is indeed suspected of falling. At least his falling action was too exaggerated...

There is nothing to say about this, it is what it is. Lin Yi may be too eager to create scoring opportunities for the team.It's probably his luck that he wasn't given a yellow card for diving this time...

Continuous bombardment gave Liverpool a corner kick in the 707th minute.

In order to defend this corner kick, Monchengladbach was naturally well prepared. Their people were everywhere in the penalty area, making it airtight.

Lin Yi did not go directly to the penalty area. Looking at the dense crowd of people in the penalty area, Lin Yi knew that he would not get anything good if he went up there.

He chose to retreat outside the penalty area and wait for the opportunity to get the second shot.

Lin Yi has always had a natural sensitivity when it comes to judging form.

When the referee blew the whistle, the corner kick was taken by Royce. He kicked the football towards the goal, trying to find the two high points of Skrtel and Lovren.

But Monchengladbach's defenders are not fools. How could they not take strict precautions against the two of them?Lovren and Skrtel were surrounded by Monchengladbach players. After Royce took the ball, he was naturally pushed out by the Monchengladbach players.

While the football was still flying in the air, Lin Yi found the second landing point and ran up to it.

When the football was pushed out, Lin Yi just arrived at the second landing point. He grasped the timing very well. He raised his right leg in front of the football. He did not stop the ball to adjust, but directly volleyed!
"Lin Yi——!"

Bang!
The football rushed towards the dense crowd in the penalty area, as if trying to penetrate the sunlight through the thick dark clouds.

In the crowd, Monchengladbach player Dahoud put his hands behind his back, trying to block the football with his body.

He touched the football, but not from the front of his body, but from the side of his knee.

The football jumped on the outside of his knee, changed direction slightly and went straight to the lower left corner of the goal!

Faced with this deflection ball, Sommer was powerless...

His body was stiff and he could only watch the football fly into the goal he was guarding...

"Lin Yi! Good shot! 2:2! Liverpool came back! Now both sides are back on the same starting line!"

"In the 707th minute, Liverpool finally equalized the score, but now there is not much time left for them! With more than ten minutes left, they must score another goal! Is it possible?"

After Lin Yi scored, he first rushed to the goal to get the ball, but someone moved faster than him. The one closest to the goal was Lovren. He rushed into the goal, picked up the football, turned around and ran out.

Lin Yi saw this and stopped running towards the goal. He turned around and ran back to his own half.

"Lin Yi scored twice in this game! He almost saved Liverpool by himself..." Lin Yi's goal just now was played on the TV screen. He Wei was not sure, "But this goal is Lin Yi's goal." Or was it Dahoud’s own goal?”

Soon, the result of this goal was played on the TV broadcast-it was in Lin Yi's name!

After Lin Yi scored, the Liverpool coaching bench was filled with joy, and everyone jumped up and cheered.

The latest score was displayed on the big screen, and below the score were the names of the scoring players of both sides. Lin Yi's name was followed by two times, which were the time periods when the goals were scored.

Lin Yi scored twice and scored two goals.

After Liverpool equalized the score, Monchengladbach now faces a question - how will they play in the next ten minutes of the game?
Should we go all out on offense or continue to shrink on defense?
Liverpool cannot accept a draw, but Borussia Monchengladbach can. After all, this is the strongest opponent in the group. It is definitely acceptable to get a point from Liverpool. Even someone as strong as Juventus cannot get a point from Liverpool.
