Chapter 188: A Historic Moment
AC Milan led Liverpool 3-0 in the first half, and more than nine out of ten fans around the world thought that Liverpool had little chance.
There is no precedent in the history of the Champions League to be tied by three goals.
Will this one be special?
No.
Everyone is sure that AC Milan are the strong side, they overpower Liverpool with an absolute advantage, Liverpool not to mention the equalizer, it was lucky to score a goal in the second half, and with AC Milan's huge advantage, it is not surprising that they continued to score goals in the second half.
There is only one person who supports AC Milan and he is a special one in the whole world.
That's publicity!
At half-time, when commenting on the game, Zhang Yang spoke about the 'spirit of the Reds' and emphasised, "If AC Milan want to win the game, they can't be careless, three goals don't guarantee a victory. ”
Lineker rolled his eyes.
Not to mention the fans in front of the TV, they were expecting Zhang Yang to bring a wonderful commentary, but they didn't expect this young man to support Liverpool so much, almost with a 'fanatical' attitude, but I haven't heard that he is a Liverpool fan?
Most fans agree that Zhang Yang is a Chelsea fan because he always gives absolute support when it comes to commenting on Chelsea games.
Why now?
Fans don't think Liverpool still has a chance, and Liverpool, who are three goals behind, will not be able to beat AC Milan even if God comes.
Liverpool fans see it that way, too.
Some Liverpool fans are going to turn off the TV because they don't want to see the team finish the game, and that process is just too cruel.
But in the live TV program, there is still a flamboyant voice, "Liverpool is three goals behind, this is the moment to show the 'Red Army spirit', don't underestimate this spirit, few teams can be behind three goals, still maintain high morale and the spirit of not admitting defeat, Liverpool is one of the ......"
Hearing these remarks, Liverpool fans were secretly relieved.
In the case that the whole world is not optimistic about Liverpool, this BBC guest thinks that Liverpool still has hope, and they can't help but be full of affection for Zhang Yang.
"This Chinese seems to be the manager of Millwall, and when he leads the team to Anfield next season, he will barely target him!"
Some Liverpool fans thought.
At Anfield, Liverpool fans will put a lot of pressure on the visitors with their shouts, and it's also one of England's most fearsome away games. Liverpool fans believe that even if they are supportive, they will not be able to support their opponents at Anfield.
Perhaps the only people who are comfortable are the Liverpool fans.
Other fans feel that Zhang Yang's support for Liverpool is no longer within the line of reason, but a spiritual fanaticism.
Now that it's clear that Liverpool can't win again, what's the point of continuing to say support?
The column group thinks so too.
Harris kept reminding Zhang Yang with his eyes, saying less about the so-called 'Red Army spirit', and Lineker was also reminding Zhang Yang that he wanted to stagger the topic.
can be unmoved.
"I think the second half will belong to Liverpool, but whether they have a chance to catch up is up to AC Milan, if AC Milan can continue to play well, Liverpool don't have much chance, on the contrary, if AC Milan is underweight because of a three-goal lead, Liverpool may catch up."
'The second half will be more exciting, the time is almost up and we can already start looking forward to ......'
Lineker rolled his eyes.
It's nothing to say these words, but if Liverpool didn't play the so-called 'Red Army spirit' in the second half, wouldn't it all be empty talk?
For the smooth progress of the show, in order to have more praise after the game, Lineker took the initiative to stagger the topic and talked about the absolute advantage of AC Milan.
That's what the fans want to hear.
As for Liverpool?
"It's good for Liverpool to score in the second half and save face, but it's a ......miracle in itself that they've come this far."
Zhang Yang just smiled.
Lineker began to take the initiative to stagger the topic, and he didn't say much, and the next game will prove everything.
————
Zhang Yang's statement of 'optimistic about Liverpool' has a great impact.
His Weibo was bombed.
There have been more than 10,000 comments on Weibo in Europe and the United States, half of which belong to Liverpool fans, who thank Zhang Yang for his support of Liverpool in this way, but they are not optimistic that the team can catch up.
Not to mention other fans.
The center of the discussion among fans is 'Zhang Yang's judgment of the game is finally wrong', this is a big topic, Zhang Yang has always judged the game accurately, many fans regard Zhang Yang as 'the person who knows the football game best', and now the myth is about to be shattered--
"Zhang Yang must have said something wrong this time! Liverpool can't catch up! ”
"Liverpool's chances of winning are too slim!"
"I don't know why Zhang Yang said that, is he a Liverpool fan?"
"I don't understand this fanatical idea, it's crazy!"
'I finally knew that Zhang Yang was not a Chelsea fan, but a pure Liverpool supporter.
"I won't ignore him in the future, fanatical beliefs can affect a person's judgment......"
“……”
In the discussion of the fans, the second half of the game officially began.
Lineker first mentioned Liverpool's substitution, "Benitez replaced Finnan with veteran Hamann, Hamann is an excellent midfield veteran, Liverpool is probably going to step up the attack, but the defense on the right side needs to be taken care of by other players." ”
"It's supposed to be Carragher." Zhang Yang added, "Liverpool gave up on the right side to strengthen the attack, there is no way to do it, they have to strengthen the attack. ”
During the discussion between the two, the game became intense.
AC Milan are still looking to press the whole game, but Liverpool have also improved and they are constantly looking to counter-attack.
In the 50th minute, there was a crisis for Liverpool fans, AC Milan's cross hit the knee of goalkeeper Dudek, striker Crespo got the ball back, and full-back veteran Cafu won the ball and shot, and the football was blocked off the line.
The offensive left the Liverpudlians in a cold sweat.
Alonso then fired a powerful right-footed volley from the edge of the box as a counter-attack, but it was AC Milan's turn to attack, and they also won a free-kick from 25 meters on the left, and after a delicate combination, Liverpool goalkeeper Dudek made a brilliant save on the back of the net.
After this wave of attacks, there are even fewer fans who will think that Liverpool have a chance.
Seven minutes into the second half, AC Milan still had the absolute advantage.
When Lineker talked about the situation, Zhang Yang also spoke, "A lot of times, the situation of the game can't be proven, one side has an advantage, it doesn't necessarily mean to score, and one side is at a disadvantage, and it doesn't necessarily concede goals. ”
This is considered by the fans to be a 'dead duck's mouth', the second half of the game has been played for almost ten minutes, Liverpool is still at an absolute disadvantage, they are still three goals behind, what chance can there be?
Lineker was smiling helplessly.
Just when everyone was complaining about the 'fanaticism' of supporting Liverpool, the next minute, Liverpool completed the goal.
It was a surprising goal.
After Liverpool grabbed the ball, he immediately shifted wide on the right side, Reese took the ball on the left and was blocked by Cafu, he won the ball and then crossed high into the box, Gerrard headed the ball ten meters in front of the goal, the angle was extremely tricky, the ball fell past goalkeeper Dida into the far corner.
1 to 3!
Liverpool caught up with a goal!
Linekerton yelled, "The ball is in!" Steven Gerrard helped Liverpool get a goal back! Brilliant header on goal, so that Dida has no choice! ”
After talking about the goal, Lineker couldn't help but ask Xiang Zhang Yang what he thought of Liverpool's ability to recover a goal, "What do you think of this goal?" ”
Zhang Yang smiled, "I have been emphasizing the 'Red Army spirit', and I am sure many people dismiss it, but I believe that now is the time for Liverpool to show the Red Army spirit!" ”
"It's the first goal, but it won't be the last!"
Zhang Yang was also a little excited.
In my previous life, I watched this classic battle, and I was extremely impressed in my mind, but I only watched the game through the video, and I didn't feel the frenzied atmosphere of the scene.
Now, he's on the spot!
The historic 'Magic Six Minutes' is about to be presented before our eyes.
In some excitement, Zhang Yang couldn't help but continue, "After a goal, often one side will think that it is safe for a short time, and now AC Milan has this kind of crisis. ”
"I'm sure Liverpool will seize the time and take every opportunity!"
