Chapter 56: Controversial Penalty
"Coming on as a substitute in the first minute, Borini helped Sunderland to take the lead for the first time, 4-3, and Borini's header was very likely to be a stunning goal!" Zhan Jun didn't seem to expect that Nan Xiao's last-minute substitution could have such a miraculous effect, although his beloved Liverpool team fell behind, but he still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Liverpool looked a little dazed after Bolini's goal, only to react when Jurgen Klopp waved his arms vigorously and shouted for them to get into place.
Borini's celebration was frenzied, he jumped over the billboard to the visitors' fan zone to hug excitedly, and even used the time to sign a fan before returning to the pitch at the cost of a yellow card from Clattenburg.
Liverpool launched the final onslaught after the restart, and there were about three minutes left in the game, and if the three minutes were usually placed in the blink of an eye, but in the stadium at Anfield today, both home and away fans feel that these three minutes are very long, and perhaps for the away fans this feeling is even stronger, they want Clattenburg to blow the damn final whistle right away every second.
'Henderson's long-range shot from outside the box! Unfortunately, the ball flew slightly over the crossbar and did not pose a threat to Mannone as a threat. ”
"Liverpool organised the attack again, Coutinho gave the book to Moreno on the wing, crossed! Origi! Although it was the landing point, due to the interference of the opposing defenders, Origi's header did not hit the goal, and was easily obtained by Sunderland's goalkeeper Manone. ”
'Now that Sunderland's players are all back within the 30 zone, there is little way for Liverpool to penetrate the opposition penalty area with short balls, and the ball is handed to Coutinho, do you want to shoot from distance? No, Coutinho shifted the ball to the other side and Mane, facing Van Aanholt's defence, went in! Colo Toure's defense, penalty! Are there any penalties? ”
As Zhan Jun's voice suddenly raised, the broadcast camera quickly gave the picture to Clattenberg, only to see Clattenberg blow the whistle in his hand and walk to the scene of the incident, and take out a yellow card from his chest pocket.
'The referee awarded Mane a fake fall and showed him a yellow card.
"Let's see if the slow-motion replay Kolo Toure trips Mane." You Lu said.
"Judging from the slow-motion replay, Kolo Toure did have a foul! Clattenburg should have been a misjudgement, and now Liverpool's players are all around, and captain Jordan Henderson is reasoning with the referee. Zhan Jun commented.
Klopp was clearly unhappy with Clattenburg's decision on the sidelines, and he approached the fourth official on the side and reasoned with the fourth official with an angry face.
Nan Xiao was also standing on the sidelines at this time, he turned around and waved his hand to Zhang Xiuwei, signaling him to prepare to play, and then continued to observe what was happening in the team's penalty area.
In the end, Clattenburg insisted on his own decision, and at the same time added a yellow card to Emre Jan, who stepped forward to theorize.
"The Sunderland team still needs to make substitutions on the sidelines, and this time it should be Nan Xiao's obvious tactical substitution, through this substitution, on the one hand, it wastes some injury time, and on the other hand, it continues to put psychological pressure on Liverpool's players."
Zhang Xiuwei came on as a substitute for the Brazilian teenager Carlos, who scored twice in this game.
After the miscalculation, Liverpool were clearly not as energetic as they had been a few minutes ago, so after a few not-so-perfect passes, Clattenburg finally blew the whistle for the end of the game.
'After 90 minutes, Sunderland eventually won a hard-fought victory over a mighty Liverpool side thanks to Carlos, Murphy and Borini, with some surprise three points from Anfield; Although Clattenburg blew away a penalty that Liverpool deserved, Nan Xiao still fully deserved the victory, and the Chinese boss continued his good form, picking up 12 league points after this game and temporarily sitting sixth in the table. ”
As the referee's whistle remembered, Klopp also had a courtesy hug with Nan Xiao for the first time, Nan Xiao could feel Klopp's dissatisfaction, but this is also something he can't control, football games are sometimes like this, it is not like basketball games that there will be courtside referees, and the judgment can be changed according to the replay; It's not like tennis where you have a few opportunities to apply for the Eagle Eye in each game, that's football, full of unpredictable, irreversible games, and it's because of these that football games become so attractive and so attractive.
"May I ask Mr. Nan Xiao, what do you think of the decision to take a suspected penalty at the end of this game?" The questions of media reporters have always been very direct, and there is no habit of going around in circles.
"First of all, I respect the referee's decision because he is closer to the scene of the incident than I am on the pitch, so I should have seen it more clearly; Secondly, even if the referee makes a mistake, it is an inevitable situation in football, it is part of the football game, whether we are the beneficiary side or not, I will focus more on the next thing, and not too much dwelling on the game that has ended. ”
"How do you think Coach Klopp would react when he heard your answer?"
'I think Jurgen Klopp is a very good coach and he should be able to understand me.
As Nanshaw returned to the Sunderland dressing room after the interview, the players were celebrating enthusiastically and you could clearly see the happy smiles on everyone's faces, and they were proud of their victory over a mighty Liverpool side at Anfield.
With the addition of Nan Xiao, the Sunderland players also played the recent popular dummy challenge, Nan Xiao and all the Sunderland players stood still, some of them were naked, some of them held their hands high, and some made funny expressions, but Nan Xiao shrewdly posed a handsome pose.
"Dizi, I didn't expect you to really have the courage to fight against Liverpool, awesome!"
Back in the hotel room, Shen Chao gave Nan Xiao a thumbs up.
"It's not that simple, if I play against Liverpool from the start, I have to be a hornet's nest."
"So you've been preparing for the second half by shrinking the line in the first half?" Chen Mingshuo asked.
"That's right." Nan Xiao smiled and nodded.
"I'm wondering, we watched football together when we were kids, how did you become a master tactician now?" Shen Chao rubbed his nose and said.
"This is called a specialization in the art industry, and we have studied together since childhood, so why didn't I get admitted to university?"
"You don't like to learn." Chen Mingshuo said.
"No matter what the reason, in short, the result is that I didn't get in."
"Your consequentialist thinking is not right." Chen Mingshuo objected.
"Stop, it doesn't matter if it's right or not." Nan Xiao made a pause gesture, "By the way, Superman, you and Mingshuo can also take a coaching certificate, so maybe you can coach a club by yourself in the future?" ”
"Hey, you have a good idea." Shen Chao suddenly jumped three feet high when he heard this, "Mingshuo, what do you think?" ”
"I don't care." Chen Mingshuo didn't seem to be much interested, but Shen Chao couldn't see it.
"Then it's decided, the two of us will study hard from tomorrow, and work hard to get the same certificate as Dizi!"
