Colwill showed signs of recovering to his level at Leeds United in the first half, which has a lot to do with his position being more fixed than last season. However, Liverpool's messy movement up front failed to make the most of the chances he had created on a couple of breakaways, and the Australian was replaced by Warnock in the second half.

The lack of chemistry between Cisse and Baros also appears between Reeser and Colwill.

Full-back Reeser had to get up in a hurry after a long run after the start of the second half and had to get up in a hurry because there was no answer. Seeing this, Benitez waved his hand dissatisfiedly.

Liverpool couldn't break the deadlock, which indirectly gave AK a chance.

Just 10 minutes into the second half, the visitors caused chaos from a corner kick and fired a powerful shot from inside the box into the top left corner of the net.

Seeing this goal, Anfield, who was still noisy just now, suddenly quieted down. The whole stadium echoed with the phrase: "It's nice to have someone to hold, and you still want to ride a horse?" No way! ”

Zhou Haohaotong blushed, and reached out again to pinch Tang Wu's waist.

There's no way, when it comes to professional football knowledge, she can't compare to Tang Wu, who has a strong ability to read games.

After falling behind by one goal, Benitez also sensed the seriousness of the situation and quickly adjusted.

However, no matter how it is adjusted, the midfield with Steven Gerrard at the core still cannot quickly send the ball to the opponent's half, so that AK's defenders can quickly organize the defense.

Now that they are one goal down, Liverpool are even more timid. AK then gained control of the ball through delicate short passes from midfield, forcing the Reds into the defensive.

In the 78th minute, the most dramatic scene of the game was produced.

Offhauser was shown a yellow card for a second foul on Steven Gerrard in the game. However, the Spanish referee seemed to have forgotten that he had also shown a yellow card to the AK captain just 10 minutes earlier, so he was not ejected.

In this way, AK continued to fight with 11 men.

"See? Even God is helping me! Tang Wu smiled proudly at Zhou, and even stretched out his hands to hold his girlfriend on his lap.

"Humph! Don't get complacent! The game isn't over yet! Zhou Hao broke free from her boyfriend's "claws".

Maybe it's Efield's home game, or maybe AK still has a little bit of luck. When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Liverpool was under "heavy pressure" and firmly held on to the 0-1 score until the end.

In this way, the Reds advanced to the Champions League group stage with an aggregate score of 2-1.

Looking at the Red Army players who hugged each other in the field, cheering and celebrating even though they lost, Tang Wu was a little disappointed and said: "Tsk, I thought AK would at least drag the game into overtime!" I didn't expect Liverpool to be so resilient! ”

"Brother Tang, don't you want Liverpool to play in the Champions League?" After the game and betting, Zhou Haohao asked a question he wanted to ask the most.

"Alas! Okay, you don't understand! Tang Wu shook his head and said, "To be honest, I really think it's better for Liverpool not to play in the Champions League this season." ”

"Why?" Zhou Haohao was even more curious, "I heard that the Champions League has surpassed the Europa League in recent years and become the highest level of competition in Europe, if Liverpool can win the Champions League..."

"Okay, be down-to-earth, don't be ambitious!" Tang Wu still shook his head, "The team is the same. ”

"You look at Chelsea last season, Abu bought so many players, he wanted to win the championship, but you see, whether it's the Premier League, the Champions League, or even the FA Cup and the League Cup, he hasn't won a single title!"

"Be careful that the bamboo basket is empty!"

"The Premier League has one cup more than any other league, and it is possible to play on three fronts in domestic competitions alone. Plus a Champions League, not to mention Liverpool, even Manchester United or Arsenal can't afford it! ”

'And this season Owen has also moved, Liverpool have lost their star and leading scorer, and the team is in the same form as Chelsea last season.

"If I join the Reds, Liverpool will be reinvented from head to toe!"

"Rafa Benitez is the new boss again. New coach, new players, new formation, new lineup, Liverpool needs time to run in! ”

"So it's better to keep an eye on the Premier League title from the start and stick to that for a season."

"After we win the Premier League, the depth of the bench next season will be higher, and the players will cooperate tacitly, and then it will not be too late to look at the Champions League!"

After listening to Tang Wu's analysis, Zhou Haohao also nodded ignorantly. Although she doesn't understand the Premier League, FA Cup or something, she still understands the truth of "being greedy and chewing too much".

If Liverpool are going to play on four fronts this season, they will likely not even be able to match last season's Chelsea results.

In this way, Beckon and his Liverpool ushered in their first defeat of the new season, still on their doorstep.

But even if he loses, he still has a reason to be forgiven by the fans, at least Liverpool's expected gain of £400w in the Champions League group stage has been preserved.

After losing, the fans seemed to see the team of the "old era" Houllier. The midfield was poorly controlled, the forwards were in their own hands, there was nothing to do in the face of dense defence, and the opponents were quick to counter-attack and tremble.

Such a Red Army does not have the demeanor of a powerful team at all.

In an interview after the game, he also admitted: "We didn't do well offensively and defensively. It's not a problem with one or two players, it's a problem with the team. Maybe the reason for this is that our players were so nervous, we couldn't control the game, we were even more nervous when we conceded the ball, we couldn't even keep the ball. ”

'In the first half hour of the game, we played very well. But then it seemed like we weren't going to play and the possession was much lower. But the most important thing is that we have qualified, and we have bought ourselves time to adjust and improve. From now on, everyone, including me, must redouble their efforts. ”

However, Bei Bald's performance in this game made fans and the media question, and seeing Liverpool's virtue, fans were very skeptical that the team could qualify from the group.

Faced with this question, Pei Bald put on an expression of ease.

"It's not scary to expose a shortcoming, it's scary to have no way to make up for it. But luckily, I still have the ability and confidence to fill the hole. ”

'Alonso is a good midfield commander and his passing is penetrating.

'Luiz is a world-class wide attacker and he's definitely going to bring something new to the team!'

Everyone knows that Bei Bald still has two trump cards under his hands, which are the two fellows he bought for a total of 1670w pounds.

The duo have not made an appearance at Anfield since joining, so there has been a lot of criticism from fans and the media about his "cronyism" attitude.

But he replied confidently: "Although the defeat in this game will make some fans feel that we are not playing well, I can guarantee that the addition of these two players will definitely change their opinion!" They are exactly what the team needs, and if they play well, they will not be able to finish in the top three of the Premier League this season and even make a difference in the next Champions League. ”

The media were dumbfounded by Bei's "honey confidence", after all, it was a player who had been bought for more than a thousand pounds. And the team has already qualified for the group stage, so no one wants to step up and touch the home team at this time.

Chelsea's example from last season is in front of us, but the media thought that there was nothing wrong with "league runners-up" and "Champions League semi-finals", after all, Liverpool had not touched these two "honours" for many years.

Just when the media racked their brains to dig up more news, a voice suddenly popped up from the audience.

"May I ask Mr. Benitez, I saw in the stands in this game, do Liverpool want to sign the Asian Cup champion before the end of the transfer window this season? If so, is Liverpool going to have a new goalkeeper this season? ”

The reporter's abrupt question immediately put a stop to the noise in the room, and all the media stared straight at Benitez's face and his bare forehead, hoping that the new Liverpool manager could give them a headline news.
