Defeating Real Madrid home and away is the best affirmation of Liverpool's strength; The score was not high, the process was not particularly exciting, but Liverpool had the last laugh, which can explain a lot.

It's not just a team like Real Madrid that is happy, it's true that Real Madrid is the top giant, but there are a lot of giants who have suffered from Liverpool this season.

Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, these teams did not take advantage of Liverpool, but most of the time they were disgraced.

The double defeat of Real Madrid is not necessarily a gratifying achievement, for the Liverpool players, the biggest gain from the victory over Real Madrid is to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals, which is indeed the reason why the Liverpool players are extremely excited and excited now.

With such excitement and excitement, Liverpool embarked on their new journey; This time the goal is the league, and when there are some small breakthroughs in the Champions League, you must not ignore some games in the league, which are also some games that Liverpool cannot afford to lose.

In the 33rd round of the league, Liverpool visited Madjeski Stadium to challenge the vice-squad leader Reading team; The Reds will be aiming for a win away from home and they will be in the race for the three points.

Regardless of whether Manchester United will continue to make mistakes and lose in this round of games, Liverpool will need to make sure they make as few mistakes as possible if they want to compete for the title.

Mistakes have already been made in the previous round, and Liverpool cannot afford to make mistakes again at this time; So even though the team has just finished a big game, the Liverpool players are still quite serious and hard to prepare.

Traveling a hundred miles and a half ninety, whether it is in the league or in the Champions League, Liverpool is this kind of situation where one step forward may be the sea and the sky; But if they make a mistake, they fall from the clouds to hell.

This is a kind of pressure, but fortunately, Qin Lang didn't feel too much pressure; It's not just Qin Lang who doesn't feel the pressure, Qin Lang and his teammates are not terrified because of their current situation, they are now the type who are eager to try under heavy pressure, and they want more!

There is no adjustment, Liverpool is just such a set of lineups, and even the core lineup cannot be changed, at most it is a small repair.

It's very helpless, which is a great drain on the players' physical energy; But that's what Liverpool's squad is, and the team's bench depth is simply not something to look forward to. There is no way, naturally the core and main forces have to work hard, play hard at this critical moment, and then seize the time to recover.

As long as you can win the championship, it is an honor and achievement, and you can endure more hardships for the championship; Wait until you win the championship to enjoy the wonderful vacation.

It's a time to work hard and give it your all.

Before the game, both sides observed a moment of silence for the Liverpool fans killed in the Hillsborough tragedy; It was a sad but joyful moment for Liverpool fans, who had been suffering for a long time, as Liverpool lost 96 fans to the tragic tragedy.

Fortunately, the truth now seems to be slowly coming, which is certainly good news for Liverpool; Although the final results have not yet been announced, a re-investigation into the tragedy has begun, and more and more information can confirm that Liverpool were discredited in the first place.

Good news for Liverpool because some things from the past have weighed too heavily for them.

Fortunately, Liverpool qualified for the semi-finals of the Champions League, which can bring some comfort to those fans; This is good news for Liverpool as they are not slumped and they will push on through those pains.

Undoubtedly, the biggest event in Britain in recent times is the death of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, although the Iron Lady is inextricably linked to English football, but not many people in the football circle take care of her.

Normally, before the start of the Premier League, clubs will arrange a minute's silence ceremony, but in the previous game, the Manchester duo chose to ignore it, indifferent to Margaret Thatcher's death.

At that time, the British media expressed dissatisfaction with the behavior of the Manchester duo, and then the Premier League responded, they did not ask the club to observe a moment of silence for Margaret Thatcher, in fact, to put it bluntly, the Premier League did not care about Margaret Thatcher's death at all, which is also the consensus of the British football circle.

It doesn't matter if Thatcher is the best leader in England's history, or whether she is a very good politician; On a football level, many fans in England don't like the Iron Lady, especially those in Liverpool City, and after the death of the Iron Lady, almost the entire city celebrated, even extending to the whole of Merseyside.

Liverpool fans hate Thatcher so much, because of the Heysel tragedy, the Iron Lady ruined Liverpool and Everton with a European ban, and then the Hillsborough tragedy, with the "acquiescence" of Mrs. Thatcher, including the British government and the British media openly smeared Liverpool fans, the 96 Liverpool fans killed in the tragedy did not clear their grievances until 2012, 23 years later, and the incumbent British Prime Minister Cameron apologized to the families of the victims on behalf of the government.

Margaret Thatcher's death was very close to the 24th anniversary of the Hillsborough tragedy, so before Liverpool's game at Reading, Reds fans were busy mourning the fans killed in the Hillsborough tragedy while celebrating Margaret Thatcher's death.

Yes, celebrate!

Just before the game, the British media broke the news that Reds fans would put up slogans celebrating Margaret Thatcher's death in Liverpool's match against Reading; In fact, it is not a celebration, but for the Iron Lady Thatcher, it is certainly not a good thing.

If you don't care when you're lying, then we won't care if you live or die......

Well, it's not a celebration, it can only be said to be some dissatisfaction with the English government at the time; Qin Lang and his teammates saw these banners, and naturally they didn't say anything, it was better not to mix more with such things, otherwise it would definitely cause an uproar.

There are some things that the fans can do, and when the players do it, it's a big deal, and it's going to be criticized and blamed by almost everyone.

So at such a sensitive point in time, it is better for Qin Lang and his teammates to be honest, at least they really can't make a blind statement on this matter.

Obviously, for Qin Lang and his teammates, there is a way to prove that they have always missed those fans who have suffered misfortunes; Aside from a small moment of silence before the Liverpool and Reading game, this was certainly not to cater to the supporters of Margaret Thatcher.

Before the game, the official website of the Reading team was announced, and the two sides held a silent ceremony to mourn the 96 Liverpool fans who died in the Hillsborough tragedy.

In addition to the silent ceremony, Liverpool fans need to prove their resolve with football on the pitch, which is the easiest and most effective way to remember.

Think about the current state of the team, think about the current morale of Liverpool, and win the vice-captain Reading away is still very confident and certain.

Liverpool's recent record has been a bit of a bump, but overall Liverpool's record is quite good, and the Reds are still quite strong, winning one opponent after another, and they are clenching Manchester United in the table and beating Real Madrid in the Champions League to reach the semi-finals.

These are of course the best proof that Liverpool are strong and in good shape, as well as full of morale and self-confidence; In such a situation, it seems that the team should win the game away from home.

Qin Lang thinks so, he thinks that the victory in this game must belong to Liverpool, and there is no reason why the team should not win this game.

Because there is a need to comfort the dead fans, because there is a need to continue to keep up with Manchester United in the league standings, because the opponent's strength is very average, etc.; There are so many reasons why Liverpool must get the three points on the road.

Qin Lang is obviously not the only player who thinks like this, in fact, almost all Liverpool players think this way; Because they know there are so many reasons for the team to win, and as for the surprise of not being able to get all three points, that's the reason why it can't happen.

After the start of the game, the Reds players proved their determination with their performances, and the Reds players who were playing away from home began to work hard to win the game.

During this period, the schedule is relatively intensive, and the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals will begin; It doesn't matter, the Liverpool players are not sparing their fitness at the moment, the Liverpool players will give their all every game because they know very well that the team has no chance to keep their fitness and Liverpool have to give it their all every game.

Whether in the league or in the Champions League, Liverpool need to be at their best and they can't afford to take any hits.

In the first ten minutes, Liverpool struggled to control the tempo of the game, and also because Reading was constantly defending tenaciously; So it's normal for the game to be a little dull, although it's not so easy for Liverpool to pick up the tempo.

Although the Reading players are trying hard to defend, they are facing Liverpool, who are stronger overall, and they are facing the Reds who are very tactically clear.

In such a situation, according to the strength of the vice-squad leader, it is really difficult to cause too much trouble to Liverpool, because Liverpool is really good.

Qin Lang has already appeared in front of the penalty area, because Reading's strength is very average, and it is difficult for them to threaten Liverpool's defense; So at this time, Qin Lang appeared outside the penalty area and began to do what he could to help the team do something on the offensive end, even if his contribution was very limited, but he could work hard to fight for something.

For example, take more goal kicks or control the rhythm, such as standing farther forward and shouting farther, etc.; These are all places where Qin Lang may be able to help the team, and this is where Qin Lang now also hopes to help the team.

Reading's players have worked hard, but their overall quality is just not as good as Liverpool, so even if they work hard, it's just that when Liverpool find the rhythm of the game, when the Reds control the situation on the field, this is Liverpool's performance.

In the fourteenth minute, Liverpool had a good chance to score, Coutinho slanted, Sturridge missed the ball, Suarez faced Reading goalkeeper McCarthy on the right side of the penalty area and chose to shoot, if it weren't for Reading fullback Gaunt's header on the goal line, Liverpool would have scored.

It was disappointing that a brilliant goal was denied, but Liverpool are back in the back and they are still controlling the tempo and they are still trying to get Reading into trouble.

In the 21st minute, Suarez went straight to the goal, and Sturridge's shot from the left side of the small penalty area was cleared by McCarthy. Liverpool organised the attack again and Coutinho's low shot from the top of the box was saved by McCarthy again. Steven Gerrard whipped in a corner from the right and Carragher nodded wide of the back post.

Liverpool are not in a hurry in attack, because Liverpool really don't need to be in a hurry now; They need to control the tempo, not just for this game, but also because Liverpool simply can't fight too hard, and they need to prepare for the next Champions League semi-final.

You can also choose a tepid way to control the tempo, Liverpool can play a slow positional battle instead of all kinds of beautiful breakthroughs and constant running; For Liverpool, it is better to have reservations, and try not to fight as hard as the situation allows, and Liverpool really can't afford to fight.

Qin Lang is still standing happily in front of the goal, because although the team has not scored, it has suppressed the Reading team, and Liverpool may score at any time, because the Reading team is really a little difficult to parry.

In the 34th minute, Reading made a mistake in the backfield pass, Sturridge chose to plug through after breaking the ball, Suarez's powerful shot from the right side of the penalty spot was saved by McCarthy, and Gerrard's volley in the hinterland of the penalty area was blocked by the defender.

Well, Liverpool missed another chance; However, it is not too difficult for Liverpool to create such chances, and the Reds can still continue to threaten Reading's goal, and the opportunity to open the scoring is just around the corner for Liverpool, as long as they can take it.

The first half was 0-0, with Liverpool repeatedly creating good chances on goal, leaving Reading goalkeeper McCarthy scrambling and the Reading back line on the verge of collapse. Unfortunately, Liverpool were a little short of scoring, and they didn't take advantage of their chances.

Qin Lang is not in a hurry, and the players in Liverpool are not in a hurry, because the team will definitely make persistent efforts in the second half of the game; By the way, in the first half, Qin Lang didn't make a single save, and he was completely watching the play, which also shows that Liverpool suppressed Reading inhumanely!
