Football’s First Defender

Chapter 358: Double Red Club for another year

Before the Double Reds, Liverpool will also go to France for the team's first Champions League game of the season.

In the UEFA Champions League group draw for the new season, Liverpool definitely drew a good draw.

Schalke 04 of the Bundesliga team, Montpellier of the French Ligue 1 and Olympiacos of the Greek team are not traditional European powerhouses. Many people are still very optimistic about Liverpool's prospects for qualifying for the knockout rounds.

Although in the new Premier League season, Liverpool suffered a nightmare unfavorable start, but in the Champions League, facing the serious "blood loss" of last season’s Ligue 1 champion Montpellier, Liverpool finally has an object to vent their anger. Up.

Although Liverpool's own pass and control style is still not as smooth as imagined, in the face of poor Montpellier, Liverpool players can still use their outstanding personal ability to make up for the lack of tactical coordination.

The team firmly occupies the advantage on the field, and finally can play the advantage of passing and controlling football that Rogers wants to see in the official game.

Super high ball possession rate, more than 2 times the number of passes, and the same number of multiple shots, shooting positive numbers, this game definitely let Rogers, who has been in the dark for a long time, see the light.

In the end, the score of 2 to 0, although not a big victory, was indeed Liverpool’s first victory of the season. For the first time there were zero seals. It can be said that this victory gave everyone greater expectations and made the Liverpool players too. Regained confidence.

Flying back to Liverpool in England the next day, the task for the next few days is to quickly recover the players' form, prepare for the weekend league, the double red club of the new season, and it is also a game where Rogers needs to prove his coaching level.

…………

There is not much rubbish.

For Rogers, the pre-match press conference has always been in a polite state.

There is no ridicule of opponents, and no pre-match declaration that is too arrogant. For Rogers, the press conference has always been a brief introduction to the preparations, and will never have too much intersection with others.

Unlike last season, Dalglish and Ferguson were as intense as sparks hit the earth in their pre-match press releases. The Double Red Club this season did not show enough gunpowder at the beginning. .

But as the game is about to begin, the calm before the game will eventually be broken. This is the third home game played at Anfield this season. The previous home game was captured by Manchester City and tied by Arsenal. Many kops hope that the team can defeat their rivals Manchester United to get their first home win, as well as the league. First win.

Anfield is definitely full of seats in the big scene of the Double Reds.

Tens of thousands of fans cheered for the home team Liverpool, and the singing "You will never walk alone" naturally filled the entire Anfield Stadium.

Regardless of the state of the team's previous game, in the fierce competition of the Double Reds, in their home court, the Liverpool players must do their best to win.

Rogers chose the players who thought he was in the best condition and sent 11 people into the starting lineup.

The front line and the back line remained unchanged. Even if Borini had no obvious role, in order to build the tactical system, Rogers still let him start this game.

The change in the midfield is what Liverpool fans have been looking forward to. They hope to see a more mature and stable midfield.

In the final midfielder selection, Rogers was a little surprised by his boldness.

Needless to say, Joe Allen and Gerrard are hard to beat. In the other two positions, Rogers sent a very young Stirling starter and the same young midfielder Shelway.

Rogers wants to join Sterling as the hot spot of the team's wing in addition to passing control, to better create offensive opportunities.

Manchester United, the visiting team, was affected by Rooney's injury and changed to 451 in this game.

Van Persie, who moved to Manchester United this season, has played a leading role as a single striker.

Last season, Van Persie, who was restricted by Yang Feng at Arsenal, had already stated in a high-profile manner in an interview before this game that he wanted to defeat Yang Feng’s defense in this double red club and win for Manchester United. Goal and win.

"Last season’s teammates gave me insufficient support, making it impossible for me to exert all my offensive strength when facing Yang Feng. But this season, my teammates can provide me with more help, even in In the away Double Reds match, I also have the confidence to score!"

Van Persie's wild words before the game made Scott a bit angry, but Yang Feng just laughed at it.

Psychological warfare does not interfere with Yang Feng so much, and in this game, the object of the defense of Skrtel is Van Persie, and Yang Feng has a more important task in this game.

Since the team lacks an orthodox defensive midfielder, Yang Feng can only use more ground grabs in the game to assume the responsibilities of a central defender, but also a small part of the midfielder responsibilities to contribute more to the team’s defense. Much power.

The Double Reds game does not require too much temptation. From the beginning of the game, it is a big deal.

The previous Champions League victory obviously made the Liverpool players more confident, playing pass-control football on the field, and more relaxed.

At home, Liverpool played very smoothly in the opening three strikes, creating 2 good offensive opportunities and threatening Manchester United's defense.

It's just that Ferdinand is always strong, and his excellent defensive performance proves that he still has to continue to compete with the opposite Yang Feng for the title of the Premier League's first central defender.

It's just a pity that Liverpool's offensive posture has not been maintained for a long time~www.readwn.com~ Compared with the young Rogers' drastic reforms, there are also changes in tactics.

Ferguson has a mature and successful tactical system established over the years as a support. He only needs to fill in the best football talents according to the needs of the team.

Under the condition that the team's general environment remains unchanged, even if individual fresh blood joins, with the support of the old players, they will quickly adapt to the team's tactics and form a certain cooperative understanding.

The midfielder Shinji Kagawa and Van Persie on the front line are new aids, but they adapt to Manchester United's tactics very quickly in the new season. There is no problem with the performance of this game.

Manchester United, which is more stable, seized Liverpool’s pass-and-control play and the problematic gaps. In the middle of the first half, they began to use the defensive counterattack, as well as the opportunity to catch the opponent's mistakes, and successfully reversed the game format to Manchester United. .

However, the score has remained unchanged from 0 to 0. Yang Feng also performed well in defense, dedicating several wonderful interceptions, as well as tackle destruction, which echoed the successful defense of the opposite Ferdinand.

It's just that the seemingly peaceful situation was suddenly broken at the end of the first half.

The appearance of a red card directly disrupted Liverpool's layout and caused a serious tilt in the balance of victory.
