Although he couldn't put the ball in the goal, Iroh didn't feel remorseful, and it is normal to push the ball off the post in a soccer game, because it is impossible to score a goal every time you attack, otherwise the football game will have to kick the score of a basketball game.

Arrow's header was a wake-up call for the Liverpool backline.

As it turned out, Liverpool's backline simply couldn't withstand the repeated devastation of Chelsea's attacking line, neither Arbeloa on the flanks nor Carragher or Aager in the middle could resist the attacks of Didier Drogba and Elo.

Especially when Iroh poured into the penalty area, neither Carragher nor Ag dared to get too close to Iro, because his starting speed was too fast, but if they were not close, their prediction and bounce were not as good as Iro, so the defense in the penalty area was quite passive.

As the match progressed, Benitez changed the strategy of the game and began to intensify the attack.

Abeloa is also allowed to participate in the attack, but only if he can defend in place, otherwise he will not be involved in the attack, and the destructive power caused by Aillo's speed and skill when counterattacking is no joke.

Sure enough, it turned out that only the attack was suitable for Liverpool to play at home.

In the 16th minute, Gerrard feigned a long pass from about 30 yards from the Chelsea goal in the middle to find Abeloa who was inserted at high speed on the right, only to take advantage of the ankle change to suddenly pass straight into the gap between Makelele and Mikel, and consciously hit Benhaim's side.

The experienced Torres had a feint to catch the ball forward, and at the same time, Ben Haim suddenly turned with the football, and took advantage of his quick start to get stuck in front of Ben Haim, and then shot the ball into the far corner of the goal from 11 yards in front of goal.

The ball hits the inside of the far post and rolls into the net.

The scene immediately erupted into a suffocating cheer, which resounded throughout the Anfield stadium.

The long-haired Torres smiled and pointed his finger at Gerrard, who provided him with a crucial assist, and the two met on the line of the penalty area, and then Gerrard jumped up excitedly, Torres knowingly held Gerrard's hips with both hands.

Benitez is a rare person to raise his arms and chant from the sidelines!

He knew that not sending Mascherano on the pitch was the right choice!

※※※

Mourinho was very annoyed by the goal conceded, and Ben Haim's ability to defend alone is Ben Haim's strength, and he should have been close to Torres in a situation like the one he had just made, rather than suddenly wandering in the middle of the game.

At the end of the day, Benhaim is new to the game and doesn't fit in with the team's overall defence.

In other words, the ability has not yet reached the level of serving the giants.

What Ben Haim didn't know was that his defensive table had already left a bad impression on Mourinho's mind.

Lost the ball in the backfield, then it is naturally the players in the front court who are responsible for chasing it back, and Iroh stood at the kick-off of the center circle for the second time since the opening, feeling a little unhappy, but it was not unhappy with the defense, but the laughter that broke out in the stands.

As if laughing at him.

When the game restarted, the loud boos of the fans in the stands had long been forgotten by Iro, and the 99 game input would have allowed him to pay 100% attention after the referee blew the whistle.

The home fans in the stands were enthusiastic, and the Liverpool players on the pitch were also quite excited, and the one-goal lead made them feel a lot less pressure.

Chelsea took advantage of the kick-off to quickly attack Liverpool's half-pitched hinterland.

Due to the dense number of defenders on the right side of Liverpool, Lampard passed the ball to the right, that is, the side of French international Malouda, and used a wide cross to create a crisis, but with the previous situation where Elo's header was off the post, Gerrard, who had relatively good header ability, ran into the box to assist Carragher to defend Elo.

Temporarily defuse the danger.

In the minutes that followed, both sides exchanged attacks and defenses, but there was no real threat.

Thirty minutes in the blink of an eye.

This time it was still Chelsea who had the ball, Lampard took the ball in the middle and observed the wings, it was obvious that there were too many people on the side of defending Iro, the distance between Reese and Arbeloa was maintained very well, and passing to the left was not a good option, but Malouda on the right had also been targeted by Finnen, and passing it was not a good option, so he could only pass the ball back.

Mourinho shook his head, with the addition of Airo does make the attacking ability up a notch, but at the same time it also weakens the playmaking ability in the middle, Lampard's scheduling and long passing ability is good, but his advantage is in the forward step.

Needless to say, Makelele is a top blue-collar masterpiece.

As for Mikel, his awareness is indeed good, but his ability needs to be improved, and he is also quite dangerous with the occasional through ball, but he is also not a playmaker.

Joe Cole, a playmaker, is a good choice, but his physical condition is not very good, and he is a bit different from Mourinho's emphasis on muscular hunks, so Aimar, who moved to Chelsea last season, is not in high demand.

At the end of the day, it's still easy to get hurt.

It seems that before the end of the summer transfer window, it will be urgent to sign a midfielder who can both organise and assist defence, otherwise it will be a problem to wait until the Champions League.

※※※

Iello felt that he couldn't stand on the left flank, which would not only hinder full-back Ashley Cole's set, but also affect the team's overall attack, so he made eye contact with Ashley Cole, and then there was a small switch between the two positions.

At the same time, Claude Makelele's position is slightly tilted to the left, which will prevent Liverpool from filling in the gaps of Ashley Cole in the first place when they counter-attack.

Attacking to protect the football, defending to protect the space.

This is what a top-level defensive midfielder should do.

Ashley Cole's forward position allowed Arbeloa to retract a bit, so much so that he and Reese were widened to around five metres, and he was afraid that Lampard would suddenly have a long ball behind him.

Aberloa's speed is not as fast as Ashley Cole's sprint, plus one of the two is sprinting forward, and the other is starting to accelerate on the spot, which means that if Lampard plays a long pass, Aberloa has an extra start time, so Ashley Cole must be recycled when he is on the wing.

Now that Iroh had conceded the left to Ashley Cole, he was close to Frank Lampard's parallel position before stopping.

Meanwhile, Lampard played the ball over and then pulled it away horizontally, feigning to pick up Arlo to bring defender Xavi Alonso away.

This is the space that Chelsea have created for Elo's personal breakthrough.

※※※

According to Benitez's arrangement before the game, as long as Iroh was within 30 meters of the goal, Reese could choose to follow or not, and given Iro's useless route in the first half hour, he did not choose to follow.

It wasn't until Iroh got the football that he hesitated a little and ran up to defend Iroh in a high position.

At the same time, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole moved to the left and right of Iello respectively, creating space for Iroh to break through.

So there was a small gap behind Reeser.

Iroh took the ball forward and started to make movements about two meters away from Reese, his left shoulder sank and his left foot swiped quickly above the football, looking like he was about to force a breakthrough from the left, but Reese did not eat this feint, but chose to step back in small steps.

At this moment, the ball was pulled to the left with the sole of Eyro's right foot, and his left foot also took a big step forward, coupled with the large inclination of his upper body, which made Reese's body subconsciously move to the right side of his body.

"The beautiful upper body is shaking, and the emergency stop changes direction!" Watching Iroh in the camera trick Reeser to move, and then his body froze, his right ankle rotated flexibly, and the outside instep slammed the ball to the right, Andy Gray suddenly shouted for Iroh's wonderful breakthrough.

Reese kicked his right foot and tried to force his weight to catch up with Iroh, but it was too late, so he had to choose to foul.

Because under normal circumstances, the referee will not give a card to a foul in this position.

But he overlooked his second reaction.

As Ielo flicked the ball to the right, he thought that Reese would be dying, so he jumped up after the pluck, just to avoid Reese's tackle, and then slid the ball with the outside of his right foot to the open space in front of him.

Xavi Alonso was keeping an eye on Frank Lampard, so the onus of defending was handed over to captain Steven Gerrard.

After Iroh defeated Reese, he met Gerald.

Gerrard pressed his elbow to his upper body as he ran, and he was ready to show Iroh what a Premier League confrontation is!!

He is 1.86m tall and weighs 82kg.

Although Iroh's height is not much different from him, his weight is only 76kg, which means that the weight gap between the two sides is 6kg, plus Gerrard has been mixed in the Premier League all year round, and the strength of the collision is very accurate, and the Premier League emphasizes physical confrontation, in the case of elbows, players collide with each other, and the referee will not blow the whistle.

"Iroh is going to go head-to-head with Gerald!" Zhan Jun's voice was clearly involved in personal feelings.

Gerrard, who was ready to collide, ignored the most crucial point.

That is, Iroh will look for change on his own...... Sudden acceleration!

He added a boost to the ball he had previously struck and then flashed to the left, a change that made all of Gerrard's previous expectations useless, and he also lost his center of gravity because he was too hard, and his left hand subconsciously tried to pull on Iroh's jersey, but he only caught a cloud of air, and then fell on the turf.

There was a noticeable burst of laughter from the Blues fans in the stands, but it was quickly drowned out by boos from the home fans.

Iroh was only 25 metres away from goal when he suddenly accelerated past Gerrard, and he had thought about shooting directly from distance, but he gave up on the talent of a long-range shooter who only increased his shooting rate by 10%, because the closer he got to the goal, the greater the threat.

Didier Drogba stepped forward smartly and Denmark international Agger followed, while another centre-back, Carragher, could only move forward passively as both centre-backs were out of his defensive position and he had to step up and hold his position.

In the face of Carragher, who had stepped forward in a hurry, Iroh shook him to the ground with a quick bicycle movement, and then flicked the ball forward with the outside of his right foot and stepped into the top line of the penalty area.

Lineker, who was a guest guest commentator on the BBC, exclaimed: "Do you want a dragon?" ”
