Brother Ou, if this ball were me, I would rather be passed than hesitate to retreat. ”

"It's already too late. At this time, you must either stick firmly to the goal line or bury your head in the end. ”

"But now he hesitates and starts to retreat halfway through the attack, so he will definitely be seized by the opponent repeatedly."

"If you take 10,000 steps back, your momentum will be much weaker, and when you roar in front of him, it will be a sign of weakness!"

On 7 January, the third round of the English FA Cup was played out in succession, with Liverpool away from home against this season's Championship promoted side Luton Town.

According to the previous agreement, Reina started instead of Tang Wu. Reese, Alonso and Cisse were also replaced by Traore, Hamann and Poigele respectively, with new signing Cromkamp in the winter transfer window being placed on the bench.

Since Ou Chuliang couldn't come to the field with the team, Tang Wu came to the bottom of the stands and held a small blackboard to communicate with Ou Chuliang.

A game of this level in the FA Cup is enough for Qu Chuliang to digest and absorb, and don't look at Luton's current bottom few in the Championship, the national football team may not be able to win against each other when it comes.

In the 16th minute, the Reds took the lead.

Cisse crossed from the right, and Crouch stopped the ball from 12 yards down the middle and tried to shoot but had no chance, only to pass back to Cisse. The Frenchman deliberately slipped the ball out of the way to Gerrard behind him, and the Reds captain curled a right-footed shot from 24 yards out on the right that curled the ball into the far corner.

And just now, Luton Town equalised.

Steven. Robinson's through ball from the middle was met by Howard, who was successfully countered offside and shook off Reina, before firing into the empty net from 10 yards out on the right side of the penalty area.

"I see." Ou Chuliang nodded, looked at the player position map drawn by Tang Wu on the small blackboard, and fell into deep thought.

After a while, Ou Chuliang drew a circle on it with a pen, "If Reina was in this position just now, he wouldn't have lost this ball easily." Because even if the opponent is offside, he will destroy the ball in time. ”

"That's right." Tang Wu nodded towards Ou Chuliang.

Seeing Tang Wu's encouraging eyes, Ou Chuliang was not dissatisfied and proud because he was Tang Wu's senior, but continued to humbly say, "On the contrary, if he is in this position, he will also become very safe." ”

As he spoke, Ou Chuliang nodded in front of the goal line.

"That's right, too!" Tang Wu continued to nod.

"If he retreats to the goal line, he can hold on to the goal. And at such a distance, Carragher in this position will definitely return to the defense in place, and even if he can't break the ball, it will cause interference to the opponent. ”

In other words, outside of these two lines, whether he is in front or behind, there will be a correspondingly greater chance to keep the goal safe. And within these two lines, Reyna will be in a dilemma. ”

Ou Chuliang said, drawing two lines in front of and behind the Liverpool penalty area.

Tang Wu looked at the position of the two lines and nodded in agreement.

"Xiao Tang, what would you do if it were you?" Ou Chuliang continued to ask.

"Look at the guards." Tang Wu replied directly.

'When I'm on the pitch, the distance between the centre-backs and me is almost fixed. When they don't have time to see where I am, I give in to them. Goalkeepers and centre-backs complement each other, not that centre-backs have to listen to goalkeepers. ”

"If it had been me, Carragher and Riser would have been standing here. Even if they were in the same position as when they were on the court, I wouldn't be in the same position as Reina, I should be further back. ”

"So I'm going to drop back immediately, wait for my team-mates to come back, and then wait for an opportunity."

After Tang Wu's series of explanations, Ou Chuliang looked at the forbidden area that was almost full of paintings, and fell into deep thought.

Tang Wu's words are not profound, coupled with the example just now and the layout on the small blackboard, Ou Chuliang can easily draw inferences.

What really made him think was whether Tang Wu's set was suitable for the National Olympics. In other words, whether the players of the National Olympic Games have the ability to play such a cooperation between goalkeepers, if so, how to cooperate, and if not, how to change and adjust.

Seeing that Ou Chuliang was silent, Tang Wu also closed his mouth. At this moment, Luton Town actually let the score take the lead.

Edwards crosses from the right, Steven. Robinson stopped the ball on the right side of the penalty area and easily got rid of Carragher with a twist of his body and fired a low shot into the far corner from 12 yards out. Reyna made a save, but he couldn't reach the ball.

After entering the second half with a score of 1-2, Tang Wu still stood at the foot of the wall, communicating with Ou Chuliang in Chinese.

Although Bei Bald also brought him to the scene, he had no intention of replacing Tang Wu at all.

Just like Chelsea, who abandoned the League Cup early in the season, as long as Reina is not injured in this game, even if Luton scores another goal, Bei Bald will not replace Tang Wu.

It's all about the league!

But God may have deliberately tried to make some trouble for the Reds, and a few minutes later, Luton Town turned the score up again.

In the 53rd minute, Hyypia was tackled at the back, and Pooh burst into the middle of the box with the ball and was tripped by the attacking Reina. The latter was only booked, but Liverpool was sentenced to death. Luton captain Nicolos converted the penalty and slotted it into the bottom left-hand corner.

"Don Jr., the situation in Liverpool is not good, either you go back first, and delay things here, what if Mr. Benitez comes to you to warm up?"

"Forget it, even if you lose, you won't replace me!" Tang Wu waved his hand, for Liverpool, who had already won the FA Cup last season, the trophy did not appeal to the Reds this season.

However, Ou Chuliang spoke politely, but the fans in the surrounding stands were not so friendly.

These are all Luton fans, and they have long gathered around Ou Chuliang and shouted at Tang Wu.

Seeing Luton pull the score up again, they shouted even more happily.

"HEY, TOM, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? You and your Liverpool have both scored three goals from us, are you going to be a shrunken turtle here? ”

"HAHA, TOM, WE'RE ALREADY TWO GOALS AHEAD. I'll tell you, even if you play now, there's no way to stop us from qualifying! ”

"Champions League winners? Hahaha, we beat the Champions League winners! ”

All kinds of provocative voices were endless, and even Ou Chuliang's face in the stands was full of embarrassment.

"Brother Ou, this is not good? Don't we have one in China? Tang Wu smiled, "What else can this kind of jumping clown do besides making noise?" We can't control his mouth, just let him talk! There is no need to deal with such people. When they say they are tired, they will know how small they are! ”

"Okay, Xiao Tang, I didn't expect you to be more open than Brother Ou in this regard!"

"Of course! Who are we? We are Liverpool! Tang Wu straightened his chest and gave a thumbs up to Ou Chuliang.

After falling behind by two goals, Liverpool finally played 120 points and began to fight back.

In the 62nd minute, Gerrard made a direct pass in the middle, and Pongler successfully broke into the right side of the penalty area and scored with a low shot from 16 yards to equalize the score at 2-3.

Less than seven minutes later, Liverpool scored again to level the scores. Alonso fired a shot from 30 yards down the middle and the ball was hoisted past Beresfort and into the net.

In the 74th minute, Liverpool, who played hotly, finally reversed the score. Finnan's cross from the right was met by a header from 10 yards out in the middle of the centre that went into the near corner for a brace.

Just before the break, after clearing the home corner, Alonso fired a left-footed shot into the empty net from central midfield. The opposing goalkeeper didn't have time to run to the goal, and could only watch the ball go into the net.

In the end, Liverpool won 5-3 away from home to advance to the round of 32.

The FA Cup match has benefited Au Chuliang a lot.

Although Tang Wu did not play, Tang Wu would explain his position, judgment, and choice of different places with Reina at any time, and interpret them.

Ou Chuliang also often asks questions, knows what it is, knows why it is so. Tang Wu is also a fish and a fisher.

On 11 January, Wigan Athletic visited Anfield in the first leg of the English League Cup semi-finals.

Similar to last year's FA Cup, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool have all reached the semi-finals this year. It's just that Liverpool was lucky, and met the fourth "fish belly" Wigan Athletic, and the Gunners could only fight the Red Devils for a place in the final.

Tang Wu stood under the stands again and analyzed the situation on the field for Ou Chuliang.

After 90 minutes, Liverpool, who were only semi-main, did not show as much as they did in the FA Cup a few days ago. In the end, the two teams exchanged blanks, which was a passing result for Reina.

If Liverpool can win the next game, then Benitez will even decide whether to continue to start him in the final based on his form.

Although he knows that his chances of playing in the final are not high, but since this pie has been drawn, Reina has to work hard to bite it.

On the evening after the game, Tang Wu was in Liverpool's John. Lennon Airport, send Ou Chuliang away.

"Brother Ou, have a good trip! Don't forget to give us a call when you return home! ”

"Okay, Xiao Tang, you can go back first. It's so late, it's not safe to drive, and I'm still waiting for you at home! ”

Seeing Ou Chuliang walk into the security check, Tang Wu walked towards the parking lot.

In just a few days of getting along, Ou Chuliang learned a lot of goalkeeping skills and knowledge of "goalkeepers in the new era" here in Tang Wu; And Tang Wu learned a lot of experience and principles of life from this old-timer.

Au Chuliang's all-round ability in all aspects of sports also surprised everyone and left a deep impression on the whole Liverpool team.

......

"Tang Tang, what are you thinking?" Before going to bed at night, Zhou Hao lay in Tang Wu's arms and drew circles on Tang Wu's chest with his index finger.

"I'm thinking that Brother Ou is really powerful, sports are almost all-round! When my teammates learned that he was leaving, they were all so sad! They are really cheap, they are so miserable and happy to be abused every day! Tang Wu showed an expression of hatred.

"Brother Ou is powerful, Tang Tang, you are not bad, it's just that your strengths are not in other ball games." The empathetic Zhou Hao comforted Tang Wu while rubbing his hands on Tang Wu's chest.

"Tang Tang, you promised me Christmas! It's been more than half a month, shouldn't you..."

Tang Wu hugged his girlfriend and grabbed the other party's hand. "Don't move, you'll have to wait, wait until the game against Manchester United is over!"

"Hmph, I know!" Zhou pouted and stuck his head in Tang Wu's arms.

Of course she knows how important the Double Red Club is. For the sake of the England national derby, Zhou Haohao could only force himself to close his eyes, greedily sniff a few mouthfuls of his boyfriend's body, and forcibly fell asleep in Tang Wu's arms.

That night, Tang Wu had a dream in which he dreamed that he had crossed over.
