65. Unexpected starts
Liga's head coach Pausa is in no hurry at all, they are more than comfortable with a draw, and a penalty shoot-out is the best for him.
This guy Bausa had this consideration before the game, when he put out the lineup of defensive counterattack, he thought about it like this, this tactic mainly emphasizes defense, counterattack, can play the best, it is not a big deal if they can't play, as long as they guard the goal well, do not let Liverpool score.
In the previous training, Liga University had trained to serve penalties, and Bausa was completely ready, so this guy is not worried at all and is full of confidence.
On the pitch, the Liverpool players still seemed to be a little cowering and still slowly probing, which made the Japanese fans at the scene very dissatisfied, they booed the Liverpool team with tsunami-like boos, and used very vicious language to sarcastically and sarcastically curse the Liverpool team.
Those Osaka Gamba fans are very relieved, aren't you Liverpool bullish? I didn't think of it, you also have today, haha.
The Liverpool players on the pitch have not been affected too much by this, they are still following the deployment of the manager before the game, step by step, they are not in a hurry.
The Liverpool players are full of confidence in themselves, they don't feel that they can't win this game, the victory of this game must be theirs, they are not in a hurry.
Liverpool's players began a long trial, and the pace of the game was indeed slow and not very good-looking, which made the fans feel a little drowsy.
And at this time, the Liverpool team suddenly increased the intensity of the attack and increased the pace of the attack.
Neither the Liga players nor the Japanese fans at the scene expected Liverpool to suddenly exert their strength at this time, and they were shocked, and the Liga players immediately concentrated and defended seriously, and they knew that the time had come to test them.
Qiu Ze in the midfield held the football, and Calderon of the University of Liga posted it. Of course, Liga University knows how powerful Qiu Ze is, and before the game, the head coach of Liga University Club, Bausa, specially set the players of Liga University Club to pay attention to defending Qiu Ze and not give Qiu Ze any space.
When attacking, Calderón plays a very important role; Calderón also plays a very important role in the defense, this guy was designated by Bausa as Qiu Ze's follower, Qiu Ze went there, and you Calderon followed me there.
In the early start of the game, Calderon was very idle, because Qiu Ze did not have much time to get the ball, and Liverpool's attack was not fierce, so he was very relaxed. But now it's different, Calderon immediately got busy, clinging to Qiu Ze.
However, just when Calderón posted it, Qiu Ze immediately passed the football out, and the ball was passed very boldly, and Qiu Ze, who received the ball, actually stuffed the ball directly to Fernando 61 Torres in front. You must know that between Qiu Ze and Fernando 61 Torres, there are two backs of Liga University, which is almost passed to the crowd, Qiu Ze is really bold enough.
However, it was precisely because of the dense crowd that the players of the University of Liga obviously did not expect Qiu Ze to be so bold and pass the ball like this, and the football quickly passed through the gap between the bodies of the two back midfielders of the University of Liga and rolled sharply towards the Spanish striker Fernando 61 Torres on the line of the big penalty area.
"Beautiful! A masterful pass! It's a classic! Qiu Ze is really a master of art and bold, and he spreads beautifully. The University of Liga is in danger. Liu Jianhong, the commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, said in surprise.
The fans of the University of Liga at the scene were amazed, the ball was really thrilling, but the effect was surprisingly good.
Qiu Ze was like a peerless swordsman, and he only felt that when he cut the light, he would seal his throat with a sword.
Fernando 61 Torres on the penalty area caught the football, immediately flicked the football to his side, and then turned sharply, and slammed his right leg into the football at his feet.
Turn around and volley directly!
Boom! There was a loud bang, and the football flew like lightning towards the goal of the University of Liga.
Yes! The University of Liga fans and some Japanese fans shouted in horror that the goal would not go in.
In front of the goal, the goalkeeper of the University of Liga, Cevaros, immediately rose to his feet and made a sideways pray.
But the ball was so fast that he didn't touch the ball at all, and the ball flew past his hands, and his heart sank.
"Oops! Almost! Football is a little off, Fernando 61 Torres is unlucky! Liu Jianhong, the commentator of CCTV's sports channel, said loudly.
The Liverpool fans at the scene immediately erupted into a cry of regret, and the football slid out of the door.
"If it had been scored, it would have been a classic. Qiu Ze's pass was really a stroke of genius, but unfortunately Fernando 61 Torres didn't grasp it well and missed a very wonderful goal. Zhang Lu, a guest commentator on CCTV's sports channel, sighed.
Although the goal was not scored, it still scared the players of Liga University, and Liverpool's attacking ability is really strong. However, they were not intimidated, they came for the championship.
Calming down, Liga University goalkeeper Sevaros kicked the ball out.
Bolanos received a goal kick from Cevaros and handed it directly to Resco on the wing. Resco received the ball and quickly dribbled forward. Liverpool's full-back Arshavin pounced first to intercept Resco from the University of Liga.
Instead of tangling with Arshavin, Resco knocked the ball straight to Calderon in the middle and ran forward quickly.
Arshavin was shocked, this was two over one, he immediately turned around, trying to catch up. But by this time, Calderón, who was in the middle, had already handed over the football club to the feet of Resco, who had moved forward.
Resco won the ball and continued to run along the touchline at high speed, but it was then Liverpool full-back Aveloa who appeared in front of the ball. As soon as Resco saw that Aveloa was in front of the ball, he had a few flower arrangements at his feet, and he wanted to shake Aveloa.
It was clear that he underestimated Liverpool's full-backs, and Aveloa didn't care about his movements, just holding the ball at his feet. Resco sighed in his heart, worthy of being a member of the European champion, and his strength is good. Seeing that he couldn't pass the Liverpool defender in front of him. He immediately swung his leg and passed the ball to Calderón in the middle.
Seeing Resco pass the ball to the middle, Aveloa's center of gravity quickly shifted towards Calderón. However, at this moment, he realized that there was no football in his sight!
Oops, scammed!
Aveloa turned in horror, and as soon as he turned around, he saw that Resco had already rushed forward with the ball.
In fact, when Resco swung his leg to pass the ball, his foot did not touch the ball, but slashed over it. It's a feint, and it's clear that Aveloa was fooled.
Seeing that Aveloa's centre of gravity had been lost, Resco immediately slammed the ball to the touchline with the outside of his foot, and then he quickly caught up with the ball and dribbled it down.
The scene immediately burst into a scorching round of applause, and gave it to Resco, whose pass was simply wonderful.
Seeing that he had been deceived, Aveloa gritted his teeth and chased after Resco frantically. Resco went down and crossed the ball, but the ball smashed into the Liverpool defender who came out to fill in and then bounced off the line.
Liverpool fans immediately breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Gerrard's defense was timely, otherwise it would have been hanging.
And the fans of Riga University feel very sorry, Riga University finally had such a very haode offensive opportunity, but unfortunately did not grasp it.
Seeing the football roll out of the sideline, Aveloa breathed a sigh of relief. The goal was really dangerous, and if it was to concede it, it would be entirely his responsibility for Aveloa. It's okay, it's good that Gerrard made up the defense in time.
Aveloa immediately walked over to Gerrard and thanked Gerrard for his reinforcements. Gerrard signaled no, he better hurry up and defend, this time he can't make another mistake.
This time Aveloa caught up in time, and he didn't want to let them break through his own defenses again.
Resco quickly tossed the ball to Calderón. Calderon leaned his body against Arshavin to catch the ball. Then, as soon as he casually turned around, he passed past Arshavin.
Calderon shook off Arshavin and quickly dribbled towards Liverpool's penalty area. After only taking a step or two, Calderón suddenly pulled out his leg and shot from distance. Like a meteor crashing in the night, the football rubbed against the air and flew towards the goal with a strong sound of breaking through the air.
Calderon's shot was so unexpected, no one thought that this guy would suddenly shoot with his feet, which surprised everyone on the scene, even Liverpool's goalkeeper Reina was also shocked and did not react.
"Sudden cold arrow!" Liu Jianhong, a CCTV sports channel commentator, roared loudly.
In the penalty area, Liverpool's Spanish goalkeeper Reyna reacted quickly, and when the ball just broke away from Calderon's foot, he reacted immediately, immediately moved and made a save.
With a thud, the ball slammed into Reina's hand and flew out of the box.
The cheers of Liverpool fans rang out, but the cheers came to an abrupt halt.
Because the football that was kicked out of the penalty area flew directly to the feet of Manso outside the penalty area, Liverpool fans suddenly became frightened again.
As soon as he saw the ball coming, Manso didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground, but swung his right leg and shot the ball into the far corner of the Liverpool goal - because he knew that Reina was still lying in the near corner!
The ball raced into the box, past the nervous defenders, and into the far corner of the Liverpool goal.
Manso quickly raised his hands, he was celebrating! He believed that the goal would go in, because at this time Liverpool's goalkeeper Reyna had no chance!
On the sidelines, Bausa also bounced off the coach's bench and watched the trajectory of the ball very carefully with an expectant expression. Next to him, next to him were his assistants, his substitutes, all watching the flying ball with anticipation.
Of course, Liverpool's side reacted in the same way, but Liverpool's substitutes were anxious.
And then there are the fans on the field, they are all watching the trajectory of the ball with their eyes open, they have been attracted by the ball, some are praying for a goal, some are praying for a goal, and their attention is all on this goal anyway.
Some of the Liga Universitatea and neutral fans were already raising their hands in celebration of the game. The commentators on the scene were also ready to broadcast the goal, and the referee and linesman on the scene also looked at the ball intently.
It's as if football has flown over half a century with the expectations of fans and players......
Swish! The sound of the football and the net rubbing was clearly heard, and the fans of the University of Liga at the scene instantly boiled.
"In the twenty-second minute of the first half, in the twenty-second minute, the University of Riga scored a goal in the back of Manso, and the University of Liga team led Liverpool 1:0! Great goal...... GOOOOOOOOOOOOO......" Liu Jianhong, the commentator of CCTV's sports channel, shouted loudly.
Yes! At the moment of the goal, Bausa roared quickly and waved his hands into fists with excitement. And the substitutes and assistant coaches of the Liga University team around him hugged each other one after another, as if at this moment, the Liga University team won the championship!
"The ball went in...... University of Liga Team ...... Universitaria Mansotiliga scored the first goal...... In the 22nd minute of the first half, the Liga University team led Liverpool 1-0! What a surprise! No one thought of this opening? Liverpool are in trouble! Liu Jianhong said slowly in the Beijing studio.
