Chapter 70: Opening Remarks

"This is, Anfield!"

Even if you're Real Madrid. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's still Anfield, it's still the greatest and most feared home stadium in football.

When the fans sang that you will never walk alone, it was magnificent.

In today's football, there are three directions in the development of the league, and England has developed in the traditional direction to the extreme.

Spain is moving towards entertainment, while the Bundesliga is moving towards institutionalization.

Three leagues, three ways, the difference is only very subtle, and the three leagues, at this stage, represent the highest level.

After the World Cup left the superstar era, it gradually became a little unsightly, and some people even said directly that the World Cup is not as good as the Champions League.

From a competitive point of view, this is wrong, but from an entertainment point of view, it is perhaps true.

When Liverpool meets Real Madrid, it's like France and Germany meet Brazil or Argentina in the World Cup.

Each represents a glorious history and is the best club in the world, at least, the best.

The English media, hoping that Liverpool can get through.

This year, the Premier League has been unprecedentedly strong, and the English media are expecting the Premier League semi-finals to complete the Champions League semi-finals.

This probability is high because there has been a policy of avoiding the same league before the final four.

No one believes that Real Madrid can still compare with Liverpool after the turmoil of the past few years.

Again, Chelsea are still in the thick of the bones, and Manchester United have been strong in the past two years.

Arsenal are not a weak team after having Arshavin.

This kind of public opinion disgusted the Spanish media.

The Spanish media unanimously believes that Real Madrid is the stronger team and should appear in the quarterfinals.

However, Real Madrid have not reached the quarter-finals for some years.

And Liverpool, 0507 respectively reached the final, if according to the odd-numbered year curse, the 0809 season, it happens to be the year that Liverpool should reach the Champions League final again.

On one side is the Sixteen Lang Spell, and on the other side is the odd-numbered miracle, and the two spells meet as if they are going to confirm each other.

"Sneijder is back from injury, Gerrard is also back in the starting lineup, this game, both sides have a neat lineup, very interesting!"

"The game started and the players on both sides seemed to be in high spirits!"

In the opening, Real Madrid, Raul and Ruud van Nistelrooy stood in the center circle, Raul kicked the ball across the halfway line and passed it back to his own half, and Marcello took the ball.

No. 12 Marcello immediately went to the side.

However, in the next second, Gerrard rushed forward, Marcello was unsteady with the ball, and directly touched the ball out of the touchline.

"Gerrard is excited for this game."

In the first two minutes, no one could organize a successful attack.

Real Madrid always play wide, while Liverpool are a little lacking in the middle.

Real Madrid thought very clearly, Liverpool accounted for two and a half of the top five midfielders in Europe, if Gerrard could be counted as half a midfielder.

It's really unwise to go in the middle of the road.

And Alonso, who has been rumored with Real Madrid for a long time, has no intention of letting go of the water, and he wants to show that he is worthy of a big contract in this game.

In the second minute and 47 seconds, Schneider sent the ball forward, and unfortunately, Alonso just turned around and hit the ball head-on.

Perhaps, even Alonso himself did not expect this.

Gerrard scurried forward, quickly controlled the ball, and met Marcello.

Marcello, the black brother, wanted to use his body to suppress Gerrard, but as a result, Gerrard cut cross-cutting to the middle, and Marcello was forced to be helpless and could only lead the defense in front.

Just past half-time, Steven Gerrard slashed at full force towards the left touchline.

Marcello is a left wing-back, and it stands to reason that he has already defended this position, but in this case, he still followed.

Gerrard was getting faster and faster, and Marcello was running with all his might.

Crossing the virtual line twenty meters from the pitch, Gerrard knew his position very well, quickly stepped on the football, and a stoppage of the switchback ran to the ground.

Gerrard looked up and watched Marcelo, unable to slow down, run over his head, then straightened up and sent the ball out with his right foot.

At the moment when the football moved, Wang Zhen, who was entangled with Pepe on the line of the big penalty area, raised his head, looked at the football, and raised his left foot.

Pepe pressed Wang Zhen's left shoulder with both hands, trying to make him unable to exert his strength.

However, Wang Zhen was not ready to turn around to the left side at all, but faced the flying football, raised his left foot, knocked on the football, and then turned directly to the right hand side.

Pepe was dangled straight in place.

"Heel stop the ball and add people, all in one go!"

Wang Zhen, who completed a series of actions, was actually facing the empty goal after turning right, took a long leg, and chased the football after one step, and was directly ready to shoot.

Casillas stood alone on the goal line and could not do much, he could only guess whether Wang Zhen would shoot with his left or right foot, and then pounce.

The moment Wang Zhen raised his left foot, Casillas's heart trembled, but Wang Zhen adjusted a small step, stepped forward with his left foot, and raised his right foot to volley.

The ball flies straight towards the goal and volleys straight into the near corner!

Casillas made a mistake in his judgment, but he still made a save, and was about to pounce on the long goal line on the left-hand side, but at this moment, he forcibly reversed the direction of his upper body, and a flying pounce looked as if Casillas jumped on the spot and landed sideways.

He stretched out his hand, hoping to touch the football.

However, the ball was close to the post, not immaculate, and did not give him a chance to save at all.

“gooooooooooooooooooooooooola――! 2-0 home and away lead! Wang Zhen penetrated Cassie's goal again, wonderful cooperation, an assist from Gerrard! ”

"This is, Liverpool's opening statement!"

Various commentators are also expressing their opinions: "I don't know why Marcello was sent on, Real Madrid has a better option, just three minutes, his mistake caused the team's defense to rupture, Gerrard easily assisted." ”

Don't blame Marcello for this ball, to be honest, Real Madrid's current batch of players, no matter who is replaced to defend Gerrard, Gerrard's impact, plus stopping the ball at high speed, has to be shaken.

It's a reflection of Gerrard's personal ability.

Spanish TV commentator: "Damn, why didn't we buy Wang Zhen last summer?" Why? Can anyone tell me! ”

On the side of the court, Benitez, who was wearing a black tracksuit, threw his fist excitedly and steady.

This is Liverpool's home stadium, it is Anfield, and Real Madrid want to score two goals, which is basically a dream.

Wang Zhen turned his head: "Beautiful, Gerald!" ”

"Alonso's good tackle!"

Alonso smiled in return and gave a thumbs up.

On the other side, Torres was also happy: "This goal, why is it so similar to my style of play?" ”

"Because when you trained, I stole and succeeded."

"Haha, I've got to get a patent."

Stopping the ball with his heel in the opposite direction and shaking off the position with his height, Torres is good at this, although it is not a regular technique.

"Real Madrid were beaten in the face as soon as they started, and it seemed that it was impossible for Real Madrid to win."

"Win? According to the state of Liverpool's performance in this game, several main players are in full condition, and whether Real Madrid can get out of the stadium alive is a question. ”

"You mean, this game is going to be a massacre?"

"Let's wait and see."
