Early the next morning, Tang Wu came to Melwood early and immediately received the latest news.

Gerrard didn't want to be reimbursed for half of the season, so in order to get back on the field as soon as possible, he volunteered to ask the team doctor for surgery.

If he recovers well after surgery, the captain of the Red Army can at least regain his combat effectiveness by Christmas.

In Gerrard's words, the sooner you recover, the sooner you can get back on the pitch. Liverpool in the new season can't do without the captain!

However, the injury of the Jay team can be said to have brought a "good start", and Liverpool has been injured during this time.

"Walter? Cowell is injured again? In the gym, seeing Colwill being carried out by his teammates, Tang Wu was a little surprised.

"It's just a thigh strain." Alonso shrugged, "It doesn't look serious. ”

"Isn't it serious? Will you come with us to Athens? ”

"Well, it looks like it can't!" Hearing the words "Athens", Alonso finally sighed.

This is already Liverpool's third injury this week.

Yesterday, Nunez, who had just returned from injury in his first training session, actually tore his ligament in his second training session with the Reds. As part of Owen's transfer, Bei Bald originally planned to develop Nunez as a main player.

However, the Spaniard is not compelling, and this time he will be out for about six weeks.

However, Bei Bald is Bei Bald, and the injuries of the three "main forces of the plan" at the same time did not disrupt his plan.

On September 29, Benitez arrived in Athens with his 4411.

From Liverpool to Athens, across Europe, the media likened Liverpool's expedition to a "marathon".

But the British may have forgotten that just a month ago, British long-distance runner Radcliffe was born in Cheshire, not far from Liverpool, when she ran a marathon in Athens.

This is Liverpool's fourth visit to Greece, with their first three unbeaten with two wins and one draw, with Olympiacos drawing in the first three.

A 3-0 home win over Monaco in the last group stage saw Liverpool draw a perfect end to their 100th Champions League game.

Facing a new reincarnation, Bei Vulture is desperate for the team to maintain this good momentum on the road. In the eyes of the Spanish coach, Olympiacos has an enemy who can make the whole Liverpool team fight 120 points.

That's right, that person is the former World Footballer of the Year, Rivaldo.

Rivaldo was keen to move to the Premier League as a free agent this summer, with Liverpool at the Reds at the time his favourite.

But considering the Brazilian's age of 32 and £80,000 a week, Liverpool turned down Rivaldo's olive branch.

The Brazilian came close to joining Bolton Wanderers in the Premier League, but the reason why he eventually gave up his favourite Premier League in favor of Olympiacos in Greece was because the latter had the opportunity to play in the Champions League.

For his part, he was also very familiar with Rivaldo.

"I know Rivaldo very well and I remember vividly that he scored a hat-trick in the last minute of the last game before the end of the season to beat Valencia and qualify for the 2001 Champions League. I was still coaching at Tenerife at the time, and that's Rivaldo's quality. ”

"Rivaldo and Giovanni both had good possession of the ball and worked well together. Although Rivaldo is not what he used to be, he still has a lot of quality, especially from set-pieces. ”

Bebald's prediction was correct, and Rivaldo started the game as the heart of Olympiacos' attack.

Just two minutes into the game, he took the lead with a free-kick in front of him, only to shoot over the crossbar.

In the 17th minute, Rivaldo took another free kick. This time he didn't choose to shoot, but instead used his famous left foot to make a perfect curling ball and pass it to a team-mate at the far end.

Stoltidis leaped high against Hyypia and headed the ball towards the goal from nine yards.

At this time, the center of gravity of Tang Wu's body was on the other side, and the sudden attack made him jump up in place and stretch out his fingers with all his might.

The price of desperately fighting inertia was that Tang Wu couldn't get up at all after falling to the ground, let alone trying to get a carp to fight hard.

However, Tang Wu's fingertip save still made a difference, and Josemi grabbed the ball out of the box before his opponent could make a follow-up shot.

The same attack came and went, and Olympiacos was not the slightest bit of fear against Liverpool.

Before the game, Olympiacos coach Bajevic made a bold statement: "We can beat any strong opponent, why can't it be the famous Liverpool?"

What's more, this is their home stadium, and Liverpool is the famous "away bug".

Before the end of the first half, Kafez's header went over the crossbar again, and this time even Tang Wu broke out in a cold sweat. The bald referee Collina's whistle finally came as a relief to the Reds, who were looking forward to regrouping.

In the second half, even with timely substitutions, Rivaldo's control in central midfield was undiminished, and there was no one to stop him from attacking.

In the 74th minute, Rivaldo wore a crotch past Hyypia and won strong cheers from the home fans. But his cross was wasted by Yeogatos' anti-aircraft gun and Liverpool escaped.

But just one minute later, the home team made a comeback. This time, Rivaldo's personal shot hit Tang Wu's arms, and the latter firmly held the ball.

By this point, the three substitutions had been exhausted. The whole team retreated sharply under the command of Tang Wu, who was shouting from Bei Bald, and Liverpool intended to use the method of compressing the formation to get a point from the away side.

In this way, the home team's offensive is more fierce.

In the 83rd minute, Tang Wu's clearance ball almost gave a big gift. His clearance from the six-yard line was too high for Yeogatos to hook the ball into the six-yard box, but the ball hit team-mate Orcas and went just wide of the post.

Everyone can see that Liverpool, who is fighting on two fronts, has reached the end of its strong crossbow. The home side may be able to grit their teeth and undo the Reds' entire defensive effort.

In the 87th minute, the home team had the best chance of the game.

Rivaldo's pass caught Hyypia and Riser at a loss, and Yeogiadis successfully countered offside and slotted into the Liverpool penalty area.

Amid the cries of the fans, Tang Wu rushed to the feet of Yeogiadis, who hesitated to shoot and pass, only to find that the ball had been firmly held by Tang Wu.

With both ears shielding the dissatisfaction of the home team's fans, Tang Wu held the ball until the last second, then stood up and drove the ball out slowly.

As a goalkeeper, Tang Wu used this way to buy the Reds at least three minutes or more in the second half.

In this way, Liverpool took a valuable point from the visitors with a "solid" defence.
