Chapter 202: The Beginning of the Consecutive Goals (Second Shift Monthly Pass)
Chen Yingying's unreasonable and domineering goal sounded the horn of Liverpool's attack, and while breaking through Valencia's stubborn defense, it also loosened the determination and fighting spirit of Valencia's players who couldn't defend - they are all behind, is it necessary to hold on?
In Valencia's manager's view Unai Emery, it is necessary to continue to hold on. Because in the case of the two teams with the same points, the win-loss relationship between the two teams is first compared, and in the case of the same win-loss relationship, the goal difference of the two teams is compared. At the moment, Valencia have a goal difference and Liverpool have lost one.
Valencia still has the upper hand.
But his players are clearly not as far-sighted as the manager. As soon as I saw that my team was lagging behind, I began to wonder if there was any hope for holding on like this.
As a result, the psychological defense line has been loosened, and it is impossible to go all out when defending. They always wonder if they should attack. Maybe the offense can equalize? If we had been in attack, maybe Liverpool wouldn't have been so arrogant, they would have dropped back and we would have had more shots......
() and so on.
So in order for them not to be so entangled.
Liverpool scored another goal just before half-time to discourage them and Unai Emery.
In the 37th minute, Gerrard fired a long-range shot past goalkeeper Alves for the second time.
A 2-0 lead gave Liverpool the upper hand, and they also equalled Valencia on goal difference. If there is a draw in the win-loss relationship and the goal difference of the match, it depends on the number of away goals scored against the match. Liverpool have one away goal, Valencia have none. Therefore, if the score is at this level, Valencia has no chance to compete with Liverpool. With the same points, they are certainly below Liverpool.
At half-time, Unai Emery told the frustrated players: "Okay, let go of the illusions. Let's play this game first, gentlemen. First of all, we can't just be shaved by them, we have to score. Secondly, the defense must not be messed up. We have to defend and counterattack, and we can't press too hard because we are in a hurry to score. You've all seen Liverpool's attacking power, if we are caught by the opponent because we are in a hurry to score goals, we will only have a heavy defeat! ”
Emery is reflecting on his strategy. On the other side Martin. O'Neill also made his own demands for the second half – and now he has time and opportunity to explain to his players how to break down Valencia's dense defence: "Valencia will definitely attack in the second half, but they won't give up defending because they don't want to lose too ugly – and they want to compare goal difference with other teams. They'll definitely use defensive counter-attacking ...... Pay attention to their offensive and defensive transitions, they switch between attack and defense quickly, and if you are not careful, you may be hit by them in well-known areas......"
How the team defends against the opponent is this tactical arrangement. Chen Yingying generally doesn't listen because it has nothing to do with him. He just needs to score goals. As a player, Chen Yingying's task is the easiest, but it can also be the hardest......
※※※
At the start of the second half, Valencia steadied themselves and began a counter-attack against Liverpool.
Liverpool already knew how Valencia would deal with them, so the back line did not press and was cautious when attacking. First of all, make sure that the defense line will not be messed up.
Although Valencia is a counterattack, it is also afraid of Liverpool's attack, so the back line does not dare to press forward.
If both teams are like this, the pace of the game will slow down.
The second half was obviously not as good as the first.
It's not pretty, but Martin. O'Neill didn't care. As long as you can win.
Valencia was careful not to press up, and he didn't bother to press out to attack, and it was better not to concede a goal than anything else.
Martin. O'Neill is satisfied, but Chen Yingying may not be satisfied.
He's only scored seven goals...... Pay attention to the word "cai". Change to another player. Seven goals have been scored in four Champions League group games, but I am afraid that my mouth will be crooked, and I can be woken up by laughter in my dreams. But Chen Yingying was not satisfied. What is seven balls? Messi also scored five goals in the three Champions League group games, and the two sides were only two apart......
He was looking for an opportunity, but the tempo of both sides slowed down in the second half. Valencia was forced, Liverpool took the initiative. As a result, there will naturally be less support for Chen Yingying, and there will be fewer opportunities for him to shoot on goal.
He didn't get back on the net until the end of the game.
Neither side scored in the game.
The final score was that Liverpool defeated Valencia 2-0 at home, which was revenge for Valencia's 3-1 defeat at home.
After the game (). Chen Yingying was slightly depressed. In Barcelona's Champions League match on the same day, Messi also scored again, and the gap between the two sides was only one goal.
Perhaps it was Chen Yingying's performance that stimulated Messi, who is also in very good form on the field this season, especially in the Champions League. Six goals have been scored in four group games, which is also a very terrifying goal efficiency.
The rivalry between the two super shooters is getting fiercer......

After playing the match with Valencia, Chen Yingying is about to devote himself to the league game again.
In the twelfth round of the league, Liverpool hosts promoted Maxi Bromwich Albion.
There is no suspense in such a game. Liverpool play at home and are unlikely to lose to West Bromwich Albion.
In fact, there was really no suspense, Chen Yingying scored a goal in the game to help the team beat West Bromwich Albion 4-0 at home, although he only scored one goal and was not the protagonist of the game. However, it was his third consecutive goal. He is steadily moving towards the goals of his mission.
Whether it's Chen Yingying, or the former Ruud van Nistelrooy, and Liverpool's legendary goalscorer John Brown. Aldridge's record for consecutive goals has been set across seasons, with Van Nistelrooy scoring in a maximum of eight consecutive games in a single season and Aldridge scoring in a maximum of nine games in a single season.
Chen Yingxing's craziest season. It was only at the end of the season that he scored in eight consecutive rounds.
Ten goals in a row in a single season has never been achieved in the history of the English top flight, let alone fourteen in a row...... Chen Yingying really wants to challenge a limit this time!
But so far, no one knows what Chen Yingying is going to do, and he has not told anyone. It's a task to prove that he can do what Liverpool can trust, and he doesn't want to tell anyone that he doesn't want to rely on his team-mates because that would make him feel that it's not Liverpool who depend on him, but Liverpool himself. He wanted to do it single-handedly, without the help of any external force.
Of course. He doesn't mind normal passing assists or anything. He just doesn't want to become like last season's 30 goals in the Europa League, where the whole team is overwhelmingly supporting him or even sacrificing himself to help him.
In this way, even if you complete the task, those media and sluts will probably still have something to say.
Since it is going to be done. Then make an indisputable achievement, so that everyone who is interested in picking bones in the egg is completely speechless!

Liverpool were knocked out in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup, and Chen Yingxing was unable to start this time, as he scored twice after coming off the bench, but it was too late.
In the end, Liverpool were eliminated 4-2 away from Tottenham Hotspur.
Losing the League Cup, Chen Yingying was very unwilling. O'Neill, however, seemed indifferent. His goal this season is to make a big breakthrough in the league, and the Carabao Cup is a game that is a place to be abandoned. So he played in the second team in this game, if it weren't for Chen Yingying's constant requests to play on the sidelines. He may not let Chen Yingying come off the bench in the end.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yingying, who came on as a substitute, scored two goals like crazy...... It's a pity that because the gap was too big before, Chen Yingying alone was powerless to change this result.
Losing the Carabao Cup allowed O'Neill to lead the team to the league in peace – he even gave up on the FA Cup.
Liverpool has won a lot of domestic competitions such as the League Cup and the FA Cup, otherwise how can people say that Liverpool is the "king of the cup"? The term is sometimes a mockery and mockery of Liverpool's poor record in the league.
So O'Neill is more focused on the league.
Chen Yingxing's thinking is different from O'Neill's, of course he also values the league, but he feels that the League Cup and FA Cup are also important. I want to take it, too. After all, he is in dire need of championship honours right now......
If he can make a decision, he doesn't want to give up on any front, and he can win the championship in any competition...... But he also knew it was his own delusion. Even if you don't have a problem with your physical fitness, you can't stand the physical fitness of other teammates and can't last that long.
Therefore, he lost the League Cup, and he was only a little depressed in his heart, and he didn't run to make a big fuss with O'Neill.
※※※
The League Cup is gone, although Chen Yingying scored two goals. None of them were able to save the fate of the team. He had no choice but to vent his anger to the league against the injury.
On November 15, in the first match of the thirteenth round of the league, Liverpool challenged Bolton Wanderers away.
Chen Yingying played well in the game and scored a hat-trick!
"Hat! Hat! Hat-trick! Hero's second hat-trick of the season! ”
"A powerful long-range shot!"
'It was his eighteenth league goal of the season! What a horrible statistic! It's only been thirteen rounds in this league, and he's already scored eighteen goals! It seems that he started the season saying that he wanted to defend his top scorer in the league. It's not bragging......"
"The hero after the goal held his head high, with a look of disdain and arrogance. But just look at his goal stats...... People are really qualified to be arrogant! ”
Teammates flocked to hug Chen, who had completed his hat-trick.
In Liverpool's 4-0 home win over West Bromwich Albion in the last game, Chen Yingying only scored one goal and was not the protagonist. He stole all the limelight in this game!
That's what Liverpool's number one star looks like!。
