"We can take a serious look at Mr. Simeone's defence, it would be a good textbook!" Henry laughed.

"They're defending density! and tenacious!" Carragher said with a laugh.

'But they act as a single team, which is very difficult for a normal team to do!' Henry pointed out.

This is true, who wouldn't defend intensively?! But who can ensure that the players work together as a whole, not every coach can do it, and of course, no matter how good a team is, it is impossible to behave as a whole all the time in a game, but their loopholes are not caught by the opponent.

Atletico Madrid also made a mistake today and almost made a big mistake, so they are not invulnerable.

"Thierry, what do you think of Liverpool and Zhang Yuan's performance in the first half?!" Carragher continued.

"Liverpool haven't actually put enough into attack, they've basically kept the balance in attack and defence, and I think they're doing a decent job, but I guess Jurgen Klopp must be reluctant to go into extra-time, right?! so I have reason to believe that in the second half, Klopp needs to be more involved in attack!" Henry guessed with a laugh.

"As for Zhang Yuan, I think his performance is good enough, but today Atletico still greatly limits his space for movement, he should be a little more active on the pitch, sometimes he lacks variety, he needs a little variation!" Henry commented.

Well, this can be regarded as a kind of politeness! Carragher slandered in his heart, Carragher thought that Zhang Yuan still needed a little momentum, and today he always regarded himself as the usual offensive organizer, and he needed to dare to fight!

"Zhang Yuan, you are missing something!" Klopp called Zhang Yuan in the locker room and said, "Do you understand?!Sometimes you can't organize away from the opponent's penalty area, this kind of work should be more for Felipe, I need you to rush in!Don't worry about conceding the ball, there are N'Golo behind them to protect you, sometimes the captain also needs to abandon some responsibilities, and need the courage to move forward!

Klopp said that he kept comparing his hands, and Liverpool's players began to think that Klopp was expressing dissatisfaction with Zhang Yuan, but gradually listened to Klopp's expression to Zhang Yuan about how to impact the opponent, and everyone knew that Klopp wanted Zhang Yuan to be used as a pure winger, and it was time to use his impact.

This is the deviation between the tactical Zhang Yuan understands and Klopp's thoughts, Klopp today made it clear that he wants to focus on the right side and despise the left side, Lallana on the left side has a level, but he is not the kind of top breakthrough player, but the attitude is active and hard-working, he can help contain, and the real main attack is still the right side.

Zhang Yuan has done too much on the pitch, far away from the core area, too far away from the goal, and more inclined to keep passing, trying to tear apart the opponent's defense, so he lamented that the team is not completely invested in the attack, because there are few points of forward passing.

Klopp said this Zhang Yuan understood, okay, since you said so, then what am I afraid of, I believe in your arrangement.

"Remember, sometimes don't be too strong, Chakel's scale is still quite strict, if you can find a good set-piece opportunity at the edge of the penalty area, I think you can have a good space to play!" Klopp pulled Zhang Yuan and whispered.

Zhang Yuanming, Klopp's meaning is very clear, don't be afraid of the opponent closing the door, blocking, rushing in, it is also good to be able to cheat the opportunity of set pieces.

Zhang Yuan pondered carefully, this idea is actually good, Atletico Madrid's defense is difficult to overcome, set-pieces are a good way, Liverpool won a few set-pieces in the first half, but the opponent is very smart, the foul is far away, and there is no threat to their door, plus Liverpool sees the turtle shell, and rarely rushes inside.

At the end of the break, the players on both sides returned to the pitch again, neither team made substitutions, Klopp's tactical arrangement in the midfield focused not on attack but defense, the problem of the two full-backs, he also discovered, he reminded the two wings to be especially careful behind them, Griezmann and Torres are actually relatively large, which requires the attention of Liverpool's players, and the defenders on both sides must choose the right timing to insert.

Simeone, on the other hand, did not make any adjustments to the team's tactics, he was more verbal to motivate the team, and when it comes to experience, Atletico Madrid actually has more experience than Liverpool, they have reached the Champions League final, but lost to their rivals Real Madrid, and they are now eager to get back to their old stadium and win the Champions League trophy.

As soon as Chuckle's whistle blew, the second half of the game between the two teams officially began, and Atletico Madrid began a period of high pressing after kick-off in the second half, and it is estimated that Simeone meant to take advantage of the start of the second half to give Liverpool a little color to see.

The Liverpool midfielder was unstable with the ball, and there were several passing errors, which led to Atletico Madrid almost getting the opportunity to score first, Klopp was in a hurry, and kept yelling on the sidelines, signaling the team not to follow the style of play that wanted to control the ball, but to sacrifice a long pass to hang it, Zhang Yuan and Firmino were very close.

Neither Atletico Madrid's two centre-backs, Gimenez and Godin, are the kind of tall centre-backs, and Roberto Firmino and Zhang Yuan won't suffer against them.

Coutinho is also not far from these two, Liverpool began to play a simple English style of play, Atletico Madrid turned out to be a little uncomfortable, high pressing means personnel pressure, meaning that the central defenders have to face the impact of Liverpool strikers directly.

In the 57th minute, Zhang Yuan and Godin competed for the top, took the upper hand, and returned the ball to Coutinho, who sent a through pass, and Firmino successfully formed a single knife against offside.

The fans at Anfield Stadium were excited again, and Qian Huan couldn't help but stand up!

Obarak attacked, he was in the right position, the pace was not slow, Coutinho's through ball was a little more powerful, Firmino was close to Obarak after taking the ball, in this situation, Firmino wanted to score too much, he tried to get past Obarak.

But Obarak reacted really quickly, a side pounce, and the ball was firmly blocked with his hands, and Firmino was tripped by him and fell to the ground.

Gimenez, who returned to the defense, followed up and cleared the ball with a big kick!

Zhang Yuan raised his hands and said loudly to Chuckle: "Foul, foul, penalty, penalty!"

Liverpool fans, after being disappointed, also shouted loudly that it was a penalty, and Obarak tripped Firmino, a sure penalty!

Chakel didn't do anything, signaling the game to continue, not listening to Zhang Yuan's roar at all, and Atletico also took the opportunity to launch an attack.

"Is there any mistake, this is not a penalty?!He obviously tripped Firmino's foot first!" When Liverpool got the goalball, several Liverpool players under Zhang Yuan put pressure on Chakel.

"I could see very clearly, it wasn't a penalty, their goalkeeper touched the ball first!" Chuck explained patiently with a shake of his fingers.

"You guys are really shameless, this goal is obviously not a penalty!Ha, if you can't kick it, you can find a penalty?!" Atletico Madrid's defender Godin also surrounded him and said in Zhang Yuan's ear.

Zhang Yuanli also ignored him, the players on both sides insisted on their own words, Chakel had to warn, this is not a penalty, no one is allowed to argue, if you say more, then don't blame me for being polite.

Liverpool's players retreated in a huff, but this threat gave Simeone a wake-up call, after all, the opponent is a Premier League team, and the players are a variety of N Nations Alliance, but the long pass is the same as the Italian team will defend, naturally, if he continues to insist on high pressing, he will be used by Liverpool in the backfield.

So Simeone's strategy is also very simple, giving up high pressing, the team's formation is recycled again, Liverpool has regained the initiative on the field, and the organization of the midfield has been much smoother, of course, the problem waiting for them is still how to break through Atletico Madrid's re-dense defense.

Thinking about the single knife just now, Zhang Yuan felt that it was a pity, on the stage of the Champions League, it is not easy to seize the opportunity for the opponent to make mistakes, but today Liverpool wasted two great opportunities!
