However, the story didn't end there, as Schal brought down Raheem Sterling in the box and Steven Gerrard scored twice from the penalty spot, giving Liverpool a 5-1 win over Basel at home to break through from the group and advance to the last 16 of the Champions League.

"Congratulations, Zhang Yuan, your performance today deserves to be promoted!" Former Inter Milan teammate Samuel, who never got a chance to play, generously sent his blessings to Zhang Yuan after the game.

"Thank you, Walter!" Zhang Yuan gave Samuel a big hug, and then stopped discussing the game and asked Samuel about his retirement plan with concern, because Zhang Yuan heard that Samuel had the idea of retiring not long ago.

"Where did I hear the gossip, I didn't say I was going to retire this season!" Samuel laughed, and then added: "Ho, I'm old after all! Maybe this season, maybe next season!"

"It's a loss for the fans not to see you!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile, which is a compliment.

"Hehe, what am I?!I'm just trying to do my job, well, it's also my own interest!Time flies so fast, I'm already 36, it's time to say goodbye at some point!You're not too young, cherish the days of playing football!" Samuel patted Zhang Yuan's shoulder and sighed.

Say goodbye to Samuel, maybe they won't meet again on the Champions League stage!

Zhang Yuan's mood after saying goodbye is still excited, today's game is a result he didn't expect, Liverpool withstood a severe test at a critical moment, and he couldn't suppress such happiness in the post-game interview, always with a smile on his face, and the expression of entering the locker room in the first half was like two people.

"A great game! We finished an amazing game, and I am proud of ourselves to be able to come back and advance with one less man!" is Zhang Yuan's summary of the match.

"Zhang, do you think Coutinho's red card was the right decision?!" the reporter asked.

"Of course not, I think Felipe was unintentional, he didn't deserve a red card!

"The fact that you didn't play well when you were 11 men and you played better after Coutinho came off was what you thought influenced your performance?!" a reporter asked.

Zhang Yuan's face was even brighter when he heard this question, he really wanted to laugh in his heart, when he was 11 people, especially in the second half, Liverpool played well, but there was only one goal, Zhang Yuan attributed this problem to luck, and fate was destined to be like this.

"No, we were fine with 11 players, but we lacked some luck! We were much more lucky later! Of course, Felipe's fate also made us angry, and we wanted to prove to everyone that we are a good team capable of doing some impossible tasks!" Zhang Yuan replied with a smile, and the meaning of accusing the referee was obvious.

Not only Zhang Yuan was so sarcastic about Kupels, Liverpool's interim manager Hyypia also criticized referee Kupels at the post-match press conference.

'It was a very bad decision and I was very disappointed with the referee. Felipe apparently just raised his arm and touched it slightly, and I'm not sure if the referee saw the whole thing clearly. ”

Speaking for the facts, replays showed that Coutinho, with his arm raised, had minimal contact with Basel Sahaca, who fell to the ground in an exaggerated manner, and that Kuppers really shouldn't have pulled out a red card.

However, some mistakes can be covered up, for example, today's big win, quite magical, the focus of media attention is not on the red card itself, but on the fact that Liverpool completed the comeback with one less man, even if Kupels wants to find scolding, it is estimated that the referee will not comment too much on this game after the game.

When he saw Coutinho again, Coutinho smiled like a flower, hugged Zhang Yuan and Gerrard tightly, Gerrard rubbed the little Coutinho's head with a doting face, Zhang Yuan said to Coutinho in a daze: "How about it, Scoot! I fulfilled my promise to you, you see we got a big win, we will show ourselves on the stage of the Champions League in the second half of the season, well, although you may not have a chance to show yourself in the first leg, but I dare say you will definitely have a chance to show yourself!"

"Cool Bird?!" Coutinho was very confused by the name of this bird! This is the first time Zhang Yuan has called him like this, and he used to be called Felipe.

"Haha, I gave you a new nickname!" Zhang Yuan said proudly, "Haha, you have a lot of fans in China, and everyone likes you! Neo's pronunciation is the pronunciation of birds in Chinese, so everyone likes to call you Ku Bird! Oh, I changed it without permission, you are a cool bird!"

The players around him laughed, this title is actually not bad, Coutinho is small but has a lot of energy, just as interesting as the former Zhang Yuan's former teammate Giovinco called the atomic ant.

After coming to England, the game time of the Premier League is different from that of Serie A, and the players will have dinner and eat after the general game in Serie A, but in England because the time is relatively early, well, the afternoon tea time is mostly the same, and the food is relatively simple, of course, the nutritional problem is indispensable.

Today's game time is in the evening, everyone has to go out to eat together, replenish energy, and have a turnaround battle, like the excited and elated fans, the players are also very happy, the conversation is very strong, and it is rare to go to a bar to play for a while.

When Zhang Yuan returned home, the children had already fallen asleep, and his sister and brother-in-law had also rested, and he hummed a song and opened his social platform to post a group photo in the locker room after today's game to celebrate the victory.

Zhang Yuan has a lot of fans, many times fans will circle him to ask him some questions, today the photo just sent out, a fan immediately liked him, and circled him, congratulating Zhang Yuan on bringing Liverpool to win the Champions League, and then asked Zhang Yuan how much Liverpool won at the weekend's double red meeting.

Zhang Yuan's excited head immediately thought of the upcoming Double Red Club, to be honest, the Double Red Club is very important, but when preparing for the final round of the Champions League, Liverpool can only leave this enemy deeply behind, and everyone wants to fight for the Champions League and qualify, who has the leisure to think about what will happen in a week.

Zhang Yuanxu took out a pen and paper to write and draw on the notebook, the first physical fitness, Manchester United did not even qualify for the Europa League last season, this season only has domestic competition, they have more time than Liverpool this week, there is plenty of rest, they must have possession.

Zhang Yuan wrote Manchester United on the paper, and then wrote one below!

The second state is how, Manchester United has recently won 5 consecutive wins in the Premier League, after a not-so-wonderful start at the beginning of the season, Van Gaal's Manchester United seems to be on the regular, their morale should be very good, Liverpool is a little stumbling, always makes people feel uneasy, but this Champions League reversal is really timely, Zhang Yuan can feel that the atmosphere in the team is very good, and it will not be weaker than Manchester United's desire to fight.

Well, maybe we have the upper hand in this one, and Liverpool has one underneath!

In terms of the third technical and tactical aspects, well, Zhang Yuan has to admit that because of time constraints, Liverpool has not considered Manchester United at all, because Basel is more important, so Zhang Yuan has to write another one below Manchester United.

The fourth comparison of the strength of the players, this is not easy to say, Zhang Yuan finally has some confidence in the team now, but conceding goals is already an old habit, and Manchester United doesn't seem to be very good.

After all, it seems that Manchester United has a greater advantage, because Zhang Yuan is a footballer, and he knows that maybe the real game does not need such a calculation, but if each coach has enough time, he will carefully collect the opponent's situation and formulate a targeted approach, especially such a strong dialogue, who is more prepared and who will have a greater advantage, which is a fact that cannot be ignored.
