Chapter 243: You can do it yourself

"Liverpool attack, Alonso crosses, give it to Baroshe!"

"Baros shoots!"

"The ball hit Wright's leg and hoisted into the Fulham goal!"

"2-1, Liverpool finally got one back!"

Seeing this goal, Bei Bald shook his hands on the sidelines, looking extremely excited.

Bringing back a dull draw from Athens didn't go as hoped, but after trailing Fulham 2-0 away, Bald began to panic!

God, let's have one more!

As long as I can be flat, I will promise anything!

Fulham are in the midst of disaster: striker Andy Brown. Kerr was suspended, a number of key players were injured, and the team suffered a miserable defeat to promoted side Crystal Palace in the last round.

But it was such a team that was deceived by others that took the lead in putting Liverpool in trouble.

The problem lies first of all with the Red Army itself.

Benitis changed the usual 451 to 442 in the previous rounds, and only two pure defensive players Hamann and Dio were deployed in the midfield position, and Liverpool's attacking organization was quite chaotic.

When Cisse and Baroshe's blind assaults were interrupted again and again, Fulham launched a deadly counterattack.

The first time was when the American crossed down the right side and crossed to Boamott, who scrambled to tackle and shoot into the empty goal; The second time Malbllake crossed from the same position, Boamott scored a brace with a low shot.

Inverted triangle crosses, every goalkeeper's nightmare!

Seeing Tang Wu pinching his waist and shaking his head, the 1,000 Red Army fans who came to watch the away game also sighed again and again.

It's not the goalkeeper's responsibility, our Tom has done his best!

But now, Alonso's second-half substitute came on to give Liverpool's midfield an immediate shot in the arm, and the Reds are alive.

"Alas! I didn't expect Dior to be so useless! Bei Bald sighed from the sidelines.

In the last two away games, Alonso has been a poor penalty when it comes to free-kick handling. In a way, it caused Bei Bald's dissatisfaction, so he was not included in the starting lineup in this game.

But now it seems that Dior's starting line is even more overwhelmed.

In the 24th minute, a careless back-heel flick was followed by an ambushed Malblanc who took the ball away without much effort, and the ensuing counter-attack gave Fulham a 1-0 lead.

He then unnecessarily brought down Malbranque in front of his own penalty area, giving Fulham a chance to demonstrate free-kick tactics.

But now, with Alonso replacing Dio, everything is solved.

In the 71st minute, Alonso showed his true strength.

His pinpoint diagonal run down the left found Garcia hiding in the box, whose deft header set up Baroshe's chance to find the back of the net.

Liverpool drew 2-2 away from home.

After the equaliser, the Reds' luck and momentum were unstoppable.

Five minutes later, Alonso's direct free-kick was also assisted by an opposing player, and Diop, who leaped high, just got the ball into the corner.

At this time, the Fulham players had become deflated balls and had to be slaughtered by the Reds, so much so that substitute Biscayne was not mentally prepared to score another goal for Liverpool.

So far, Liverpool have made a miraculous 4-2 comeback away from home and bitten Chelsea at the top of the table.

Fulham boss Coleman did not attribute luck to the main cause of his team's defeat: "We have to be more united and trusting, we have to create our own 'luck'."

As for the victory, he said: "We have all played well at home, but it has been extremely difficult on the road. I hope the team will be as confident as they are at home in the next away games so that they can have a chance of winning the title. ”

Alonso, the hero of the victory, also said: "Although it feels a little strange to concede two goals in the first half, the important thing is that we won in the end and still came back by a big score, which will be a great stimulus and inspiration for the whole team." ”

When facing the camera, Tang Wu just said softly: "Maybe Alonso is not so good in other aspects, but on the pitch, he has become an indispensable member of Liverpool." To be honest, when he was there, the whole team believed we could score. ”

This game was the 4,000th game in Liverpool's history, and Alonso created a "miracle" for the Reds on the road, and since then he has established his position as the main midfielder.

After this round of games, Tang Wu said goodbye to Liverpool for the time being. Taking advantage of his rest time, he took a flight to the Peace and Friendship Stadium in Kuwait City to challenge Kuwait, the most threatening opponent in Group D of the 06 World Cup Qualifiers Asian Qualifiers.

"If there is a tie between the two teams in the group stage, we will have a better goal difference!" A Chinese coaching staff coach endorsed before the game, "So we must not lose two goals in this game, understand?" ”

In response to everyone's sparse cheering, Tang Wu followed Zhao Junzhe into the court.

QTMD can't lose by two goals, why don't we win?

Tang Wu didn't know what other people thought, but Tang Wu really wanted to win the game.

If this game is won, then there is no suspense about qualifying from the group. Because the national football team has already won 1-0 against Kuwait when playing at home, as long as this game is drawn, it will already be ironclad to qualify, after all, there is only one last home game against Hong Kong in the group stage.

With a stomach full of dissatisfaction, Tang Wu raised his hand and signaled that the referee was ready.

In this game, Zheng Zhi's red card was suspended, Li Datou and Zhang Yaokun partnered in the back, and Sun Xiang and Wei Xin were on both sides. Tang Wu guarded the goal, and the "Three Youths of Guoan" and Zhao Junzhe sat in the midfield; Hao Dacang and Li Dayu combined the front.

One minute after the opening, Shao Jiayi won a free kick on the right side of the penalty area, and Jiayi's curling ball flew out of the corner of the crossbar and post.

In the 3rd minute, under the pressure of Wei Xin, the Kuwaiti defender made a mistake in the header return pass, and the Chinese team got a corner kick opportunity, but did not form an offensive. After the start of the game, the offensive and defensive tempo of both sides was not very fast, Kuwait was relatively stable, and the formation did not press as much as expected.

In the 8th minute, the national football team instigated a very high-quality attack, the left side of the front field broke the ball and quickly crossed, Xu Yunlong returned the ball in front of the penalty area, and Li Dayu's powerful low shot was saved by the Kuwaiti goalkeeper.

In order to attract fans, the Kuwaiti side has developed a "free entry" strategy for this game, so the momentum of the home team's fans is very strong. The midfield blocking of the national football team is relatively good, and it is difficult for Kuwait to find opportunities in the positional battle.

Coupled with Tang Wu's advantage in defending high-altitude balls, in the first half of stoppage time, Kuwait got three corner kicks in a row, but none of them formed an attack.

In the end, the first half was 0-0.

Yibian fought again, and Alihan replaced Hao Cannon with Emperor Li.

But at the beginning of the second half, the scene suddenly made waves.

Kuwait rarely played on the right side in the first half, but in the second half they suddenly made a move on this side, which did not seem to be a matter of chance at all.

In the 47th minute, Sun Xiang's pass was broken, and Kuwait quickly launched a counterattack.

After breaking down the right flank, Bashar fell to the ground and headed back near the line of the six-yard box.

"TMD, Lao Tzu hates inverted triangles the most!"

Tang Wu pouted angrily, and flew out before his head was completely turned.

Sure enough, Juma's stab came as promised.

Without knowing whether it was a high ball or the opposite angle, Tang Wu made a more correct choice - to pounce on the middle and lower lanes.

"Bang!"

The Kuwaiti striker was still unable to find the back of the net despite facing almost an empty goal.

Whether it was Alihan on the sidelines, the Chinese coaching staff, or Liu Yunfei sitting on the bench, they all broke out in a cold sweat.

"Huhuhu! It seems that it would be a wise choice to call Tom back from the UK! ”

After Tang Wu pounced on the ball, the coach and players suddenly reacted - slot, don't attack, defend it, if you hold it, we will almost qualify!

In the end, after holding on to the entire second half, the national football team drew 0-0 with Kuwait away from home.

Seven years ago today, the national football team defeated Kuwait 2-1 away in the 97 Asian Top 10 match, and the goals were scored by Hao Haidong and Gao Feng.

As for the away defeat to Kuwait, it was already eleven years ago.

The audience present today all patted their chests and shouted luck, no matter what, the national football team's qualification is almost a certainty.

After the game, Tang Wu was very angry, found the person in charge of the Chinese coaching staff, and said in an unquestionable tone: "No matter what, I will definitely not go back to the last game against Hong Kong." If we can't even play in Hong Kong, I think even if we enter the World Cup, we will be at the bottom! ”
