Volume 1 Chapter 60 The Guardian Knight (II)

Anfield was shining brightly at night, and in a match in the second round of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool fell behind Marseille 0-1 at home for almost 80 minutes, and if they held on for more than ten minutes, Marseille could win two in a row and take the lead in the group qualifiers.

The introduction of Lucas and Mackin did not immediately help Liverpool equalise, and the one-goal lead made them more relaxed and fully defenced.

After Mackin passed a cross on the right side that almost cost Marseille's life, Marseille immediately paid attention to him and no longer gave him easy space to take the ball and pass, and then Liverpool became more and more impatient, using long passes several times and easily losing the ball.

It's really hard to do without Alonso in midfield!

Benitez walked anxiously around the sidelines, shouting loudly from time to time: "Be patient, be patient", but the clear 0-1 on the scoreboard, the deafening shouts of the home team, and the stimulating Liverpool players' brains were not clear.

In home games, there is a huge encouragement and a huge pressure, just like children who perform in front of their parents, they are always more afraid of acting in front of their parents.

Mackin has not received the ball a few times since then, in addition to the tight defense, Liverpool's lack of patience to advance at the layers is also one of the reasons, after Marseille strengthened the marking to cut off Mackqin's receiving route, the backfield did not easily pass the ball to him.

'Liverpool are in such a hurry,' commented McManaman, 'that 'time is running out, but the chances of an equaliser are even slimmer'

Peterson also commented: "Marseille's strategy today was too successful and they had good luck to score the only shot in the game that hit the woodwork"

As he spoke, Benayoun's cross was pushed over, Liverpool pressed too high, and Cisse received the ball when only Mascherano and Carragher were left at the back.

He had just been substituted on 70 minutes, and he was fit, and he and Cendon easily passed Mascherano in a one-two, and Liverpool's half was only left with the rushing Cisse and Carragher who tried to squeeze Cisse on the way back as he retreated.

And one more!

Mackqin, who frantically defended on the right side, when he just got the cross pushed out, he predicted that the second drop point would be controlled by Marseille, and even Skrtel was pressed on his side, and the back was simply flat.

Needless to say, he's not as fast as Cisse, it's faster than Cisse, he's on the right side, Cisse is on the left, and he can't reach it.

Mackin went directly to his own goal, so one more person could be alone.

Cisse was sold in the summer, he didn't want to, he was holding back his energy as soon as he came on the pitch, he wanted to prove himself at Anfield.

"Marseille's counterattack, let's look at this ball, Cisse rushed forward with the ball, only Carragher was left", Duan Xuan said.

Zhang Lu explained the tactics: "It's a counterattack again, Marseille estimated that he had specially practiced the routine before the game, and he played very clearly."

The camera was firmly on Cice, who slid into the box on the left flank, Carragher blocked his shot from the flank, and Reyna struck early to block the near corner.

The hearts of Liverpool fans were in their throats, it was too dangerous, Cisse did not drag the mud and water after entering the penalty area, accelerated to dodge an angle, and shot the ball into the far corner from under Carragher's outstretched blocking leg.

Reyna stretched his legs hard, and could only watch the ball pass by his feet in despair, Cisse saw the ball cross Reina's block and go straight to the far corner of the goal, and before the ball entered the goal, he turned around excitedly and took off his shirt and rushed to the sidelines.

The biggest joke of the game is born!

Mackin had already run into the penalty area when Cisse shot and went straight to the far corner that Cisse might choose, and if he played the near corner, he couldn't do anything to see Reina's luck, but Reina was lucky.

At the moment when the ball was about to cross the goal line, a pair of scissor legs stretched out, and Mackin rarely fell to the ground to tackle the ball on the field, this time he threw himself whole, reaching the ball with his toes and touching it lightly in the direction of the ball's roll.

"Cisse shoots! The ball goes ......, huh? Makqin! Makqin! Makqin! Duan Xuan was surprised to see that Ma Qin actually saved the ball, "Who knows when he will come back?" He saved Liverpool! ”

Maika jumped up and almost ripped off her headset, "Mark, he's done a meritorious service!" He made Cisse's celebration a joke at the last minute! ”

Cisse was destined to be sad, he was still shouting frantically on the sidelines, as if to vent his grievances, who knew that the Liverpool fans were still booing him, but suddenly raised their arms and shouted, laughed, and then booed him with even greater ridicule!

What's the situation? Are you collectively insane?

He subconsciously looked back, only to see that his teammates who were going to run to celebrate stopped halfway with their hands in their hands, and the Liverpool players were instead surrounding in the penalty area, as if celebrating?

Fault it!

After Reina got up, he frantically rushed to Makqin who was rolling on the ground, "Mark, you are amazing!" Awesome! He put his head on his forehead and shouted fiercely, only in this way can he overwhelm the volcanic noise in the stadium!

One teammate after another rushed towards him, and they were all desperate, but with a slight flick from Ma Qin, the ball that was supposed to roll into the door grazed the post and went out of the bottom line!

In Anfield, how can you go wild so easily!

Ma Qin snorted and panted, the sprint of more than 70 meters made his legs weak now, but he was extremely happy, many people came over and shouted and touched his head, he just laughed.

Cisse looked at the big screen, dumbfounded, he couldn't accept how this could be! It's a must-score! It was supposed to be a glorious moment for me! And now it's a laughing stock in this damn place again! I'm not reconciled!

Knights in Anfield? Guardian is always there!

"Mark ~ Mark ~ Mark ~", this is the treatment he never received when he broke the record for the youngest player to score a goal in the Premier League last time, this is the acceptance and recognition of the hearts of red fans! The audience automatically called his name in unison, over and over again.

In addition to competition, Liverpool is also home, is sustenance!

Every Liverpudian will take the initiative to protect it!

McManaman commented: "Today I am very happy that I have seen the next generation of Liverpudlians, a real Liverpudlian"

Mark was greeted by the applause of the audience and was cheered up by Caragra, "Good boy, you saved the whole team!" He was very moved, he didn't expect that one of his unintentional actions would be so recognized by the fans, you have no reason not to fight to the death for these people!

Charlie looked blankly at Makqin who was cheered by the fans, a little incredible, Isabella looked happy, he was always so different and eye-catching. (Macrokin: I'm low-key, right?) You are a lover's eyes! )

Mark cheering group shouted the slogan even more excitedly, if Ai Ming is a man, it is estimated that he will show his chest, she is more excited than Mark Qin, if Mark Qin is here, it can be seen at a glance that she is pretending, how can she be so passionate about football? It's purely for his brother to attract fans!

At this time, the feelings of domestic fans are far from catching up with Liverpool's die-hard fans, and in the eyes of domestic fans, Mackin is also a diligence that does not give up and succeeds in defense. But in the eyes of the Red Army's hardcore, he is desperate for this jersey on his body and the team emblem on his chest!

He's doing his best to preserve its dignity!

People who like you laugh for you, and people who love you shed blood and tears for you!

Marseille's morale was clearly a bit low, they were still one side ahead, but the unthinkability affected them, and the next corner was not threatening!

Ejere looked sorry for the game and couldn't kill the game, but he still reminded his players loudly to concentrate that the final moments of the game were the most dangerous, especially at Anfield.

Liverpool seems to have been completely enraged, and after re-attacking, it became more ferocious, but ~ and then it didn't happen!

Don't be in a hurry, comrades! While trying to respond, Mackin watched his teammates force their way into the Marseille penalty area again and again, although they were cleared again and again.

Marseille has given up attacking, that is, sticking to the penalty area, leaving Cisse to harass in front, Cisse has obviously been hit, and his running enthusiasm is much worse than before.

"Gerrard, long shot! It was blocked, and in the past few minutes Liverpool have been bombarding the Marseille penalty area, and there are too many people in the penalty area."

"Benayoun took the ball, Enrique came up, cross~, a bit big, and, Mark got the ball on the wing~"

"Mark dribbles the ball and tries to break through, Bonner tackles, Liverpool get a corner, Liver's chance to seize the set-piece~"

Time is running out and the assistant referee has already raised the sign for stoppage time, 'four minutes of stoppage time', Peterson continued, 'There is not much time left for Liverpool'

McManaman said: "Benitez and Liverpool fans will be very disappointed if they lose, while Marseille will have a huge advantage in qualifying early"

Benayoun ran over to take a corner, but now there was little point in playing tactical coordination, and Mackin ran to the outside of the box to control the second spot.

Benayoun's corner was of good quality, Skrtel and Givet fought hard, neither of them was on target, the ball rubbed their scalp, and they didn't know who it hit on their heads, and there was chaos in the penalty area.

In the end, I don't know who kicked the ball out of the penalty area, didn't kick it far, just ran to Lucas, Lucas dialed the ball and prepared to shoot from a distance, Marseille's block had already come up, and he had to dial it again.

"A free-kick, Liverpool got a free-kick in front of the box and it was probably their last chance to attack"

'Sherou blocked and tripped Lucas, the free-kick was about 25 metres from goal, and it was from this position that Gerrard scored a free-kick in the first round.

Marseille is still arguing around the referee, they are very experienced, both to put pressure on the referee and to delay time, it is estimated that after the free kick, the extra time will be over.

Gerrard, Benayoun and Mackin stood in front of the football, usually on the field is Gerrard, Alonso, Benayoun in front of the ball, Gerrard and Alonso both have a good free kick, Benayoun is to do the coordination.

Now that Alonso was not there, everyone in the team knew that Mackin was a good free-kick, and Gerrard summoned him, and the three of them gathered around to discuss.

"Josie, Mark, this is probably our last chance"

"There's a lot of people in the wall, Steven, you're going to shoot straight at goal?"

"Well, I'm worried that a dozen cooperation, the referee won't give us time, I'll dial it and shoot again, Jossi, you help me step on the ball, Mark, you prepare in the back, in case I hit the human wall, you shoot directly from a distance when the time comes, don't hesitate"

"Got it", Makqin nodded in understanding.

"What are the three of them discussing, is it to cooperate? Time is running out, let's see how they are going to take this free-kick."

Mandanda looked nervous, constantly moving left and right to observe the gaps in the human wall, directing the angle of the human wall.

The crowd and all the fans watching the live stream were watching Gerrard stand up and prepare for the penalty kick to see if he could turn the tide.

If it is drawn, although Liverpool's group ranking is still not ideal, the gap between the front and back is only two points, and the game will come back, and the situation is relatively better.

"Toot", the referee gestured for Gerrard to prepare a free throw.

Gerrard glanced at Mandanda's position, took a deep breath, began to run and swing his legs, and pumped into the middle and lower part of the ball~
