Chapter 108: Bad Start

Tottenham played this time in the front, Harry. Kane, Son Heung-min, Higuain.

Harry. Kane has been in great form since his comeback, completely unaffected by surgery, which has also been a relief to Tottenham fans.

After all, Torres's fate was put there, and they were afraid that an operation would put Harry in the first place. Kane was ruined.

But there are also many people who say that Harry. Kane was able to regain his form so quickly because of Yile's non-stop feeding and curtailing Harry as soon as possible. This gap in Kane's absence from the field.

Of course, whether it's Yile or Harry. Kane is a big part of the Tottenham team, so the tacit cooperation between the two is also something that Tottenham fans are happy to see.

It's just that this game has Tottenham fans worried.

Two seasons ago, Tottenham were really efficient up front, thanks to Harry. Kane's individual ability has boosted Tottenham's impact to the greatest extent.

But you know, since Yile arrived at Tottenham, the core of this team has shifted towards the midfield.

Harry. Kane has also slowly changed from an all-round center forward to a scooper who can only shout 'Daddy feed me bread'.

This is a source of embarrassment for Tottenham fans, and the arrival of Yile has indeed raised Tottenham's impact by several notches, but at the same time, it has also raised the impact of Tottenham Hotspur. Kane complained and obliterated Harry. Kane's functionality as a striker.

Of course, Harry. Kane complained and complained, but he still made quite achievements on the way to eating cakes, which was a little worse than Ronaldo.

Therefore, after changing the style of play, whether Tottenham's forward line can support the team's attack is a key question.

......

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Liverpool kicked off the ball first, with Roberto Firmino passing the ball to Lucas, who passed it back to Lovren, and at the same time penetrated the pitch.

Tottenham's strikers were also the first to enter the Liverpool half.

Both sides are attacking line-ups, and clashes are inevitable.

Harry. Kane, Son Heung-min and Gonzalo Higuain were aggressive up front, and this pressing put a certain amount of pressure on the Liverpool players.

In the face of Tottenham's pressing, they did not dare to reverse the ball at the back, after all, they did not have a super midfielder to help them stabilize the rhythm of the midfield.

Of course, Tottenham don't have it now.

In this game, Tottenham put N'Golo Kante and Eric in the midfield. Dale, Moussa. Sissoko's three-beast waist combination, these three men have only one mission, to disrupt Liverpool's offensive.

N'Golo Kante's interception ability, Eric Brown. Dyer's blocking ability as well as Moussa. Sissoko's strength and pace can cause Liverpool some problems.

Another point is that Tottenham's backline is not too strong, barely qualified, but in the face of strong teams such as Liverpool, many times this shortcoming will be infinitely expanded.

Tottenham's backline is far from being a defensive gate, so Villas-Boas has set up a buffer in midfield, and from the point of view, it is not bad.

Of course, without the midfield commander of Yile, Tottenham's impact is much less, which gives Liverpool enough time to sort out their rhythm.

The Liverpool players knew that if the Chinese were on the pitch, they would certainly not play so easily.

That sudden change of pace can be a nightmare for Liverpudlians!

And that Chinese won't let them pour the ball so easily.

"N'Golo Kante, play too conservatively, this ball can be passed forward!"

"What is Dale doing? Press forward! ”

"And Sissoko, what kind of movement is he? Not even aware of this? ”

Dele. Ali sat next to Yi Le, chattering non-stop, and he was about to become a commentator.

"Yi, look at Sissoko, his running awareness is too poor!" Dele. Ali said with some anger that he was very unhappy with the fact that he was pressed to the bench.

Yi Le turned his head to look at Dele. Ali, secretly said: You can't run well!

"Huh? What kind of eyes do you have? ”

Yi Le smiled innocently, turned his head and continued to look at the arena.

Dele. Alli was right, Tottenham's midfield was too conservative.

Without Yile on the pitch, the midfield task was handed over to N'Golo Kante.

N'Golo Kante played well at Leicester City, but when he arrived at Tottenham, he was tasked with assisting Yile and he never put himself at the heart of midfield.

And Tottenham's midfield performance is obvious to all, so this game will be a lot of pressure for Kante.

Yile and Kante will always be compared by those who have a heart.

Of course, N'Golo Kante is not bad enough to really have a mental breakdown and thus a technical deformation.

But he won't, just because others won't!

Musa. Sissoko, the French national team midfielder used to belong to Magpies Newcastle, but this season Newcastle were relegated, resulting in Moussa Anderson. Sissoko left the club to join Tottenham.

When he first arrived at Tottenham, Moussa Hotspur. Sissoko came with a certain vision.

Tottenham have a super midfielder of Yile and a crazy recruitment in the summer window last year, which has made him see Tottenham's ambitions, and he feels that a move to Tottenham is a good choice.

And he is willing to assist Yile as a super midfielder, for which he has also imagined the future.

But the truth is often brutal in Musa. The day after Sissoko joined Tottenham, Tottenham officially announced the signing of Kante, and the two clashed positions, and compared to Kante, who shone last season, Moussa. Sissoko thinks he's inferior.

As he thought, N'Golo Kante and Yile form a super midfield duo that dominates the Premier League.

And he is depressed, he has been pressed on the bench, and many times he can't even get into the squad.

Musa. Sissoko is 28 years old and time is running out for him to get his chance to play.

After half a season, against Liverpool, Moussa . Sissoko finally got his chance to start.

This time, he wants to show himself and prove that he is no worse than N'Golo Kante.

But perhaps it was this anxious mentality that caused him to make frequent mistakes and not find the feeling he had in training.

Musa at this time. Sissoko's mind was messy.

Suddenly, he heard someone shouting to himself, and subconsciously looked up, only to see the football flying towards him.

Musa. Sissoko immediately stopped the ball, but the ball was not stopped, hit the inside foot and flew out, and happened to land in front of Liverpool player winger Mane.

Musa. Sissoko's eyes widened immediately, and he suddenly felt that his life was gray.

......

"Mistake!! Blunder!! Sissoko's huge blunder! He passed the ball to Mane! Liverpool's on-site commentary was not happy, no one expected that Tottenham would have a two-five boy.

There was a burst of exclamations from Tottenham's bench!

Dele. Ali and Yi Le both slammed their heads against the roof, but they were still staring at the pitch with a hint of anxiety in their eyes.

Boas was also dumbfounded, and jumped to his feet in anger.

The whole Tottenham stands gasped.

Duan Xuan and the others also got up anxiously, they were completely integrated into the Tottenham fans at this time, and there was a burst of urgency in their hearts.

All eyes were on Mane.

Mane is also excited to see football, the ball is simply too comfortable, and there is a amount of advance.

The most important thing is the opponent's pass, and even if Mane receives it, it is not offside.

Mane didn't say a word, he ran forward.

N'Golo Kante and Alderved wanted to get up for a foul, but they got off to a late start and couldn't keep up with Sadio Mane.

They desperately want Sadio Mane to break into the penalty area.

Goalkeeper Lloris stepped forward to block and Mane calmly fired a shot that went past Lloris and into the Tottenham goal.

In the 32nd minute of the first half, Liverpool scored first, and the score was 1:0.
