Now is the time to start guarding against it, this is not the time to be reckless. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the football field, it is very realistic, win or lose; Winning is three points, and maybe it can bring the championship and promotion. But losing is zero points, and there is nothing that is still glorious despite defeat, which is very realistic.
Qin Lang knows this very well, just look at the passive situation that the team is in now; Schalke is now on the rise, and he can't let those people play rhythm, and he already has experience in fighting, which naturally means knowing how many points the opponent has.
It still had some effect, although the morale of Schalke's players was very high, and they did quickly grasp the initiative of the game after the game started. But when Qin Lang commanded Liverpool's players to start arranging the defensive line, those guys immediately crashed headlong into the thick city wall.
It's hard to talk about the bleeding of the head now, but it's definitely not easy; Even if he gathered heavy troops, he just failed to achieve more.
Qin Lang stared at the front court with burning eyes, he didn't need to worry too much about it now; The team's midfield defensive ability is indeed average, but with the addition of crowd tactics, it is really difficult for Schalke players to get more chances, and it is difficult for them to find more opportunities before entering.
This naturally made Qin Lang a little fancy, although Schalke goalkeeper Onnastahl seemed to have learned the experience of the first leg and kept shrinking in the penalty area, but Qin Lang found that Schalke's formation was constantly pressing forward.
Don't expect to score in this game, Qin Lang is not so greedy; However, the opposition is a bit up front, and if they continue to attract their opponents to invest in the attacking end, they may really be able to create some good counter-attacking opportunities.
This is really some of Qin Lang's careful thinking, and it is true that this may put the team under a lot of pressure on the defensive end. It's just that Qin Lang also knows very well that this may be the way to break the enemy; is also because Qin Lang knows very well that this is not just a decision that Liverpool can make unilaterally, it is a choice that has to be made according to the situation on the field.
To put it simply, Schalke are very aggressive in attack right now, and these people are constantly attacking Liverpool's defence. If the Reds can't contain Schalke in some counterattacks, those guys will definitely get bigger and fiercer.
Counter-attacking is also an effective strategy, and defending is a very passive thing after all, which is not much to argue. Qin Lang is now looking for an opportunity, if he can have a chance to disrupt the opponent's position in the counterattack, then Qin Lang will naturally not be polite.
The opportunity that Qin Lang was looking for soon came, thanks to the Schalke players for their desire for revenge is too strong, and thanks to the opponent for being so invested in the offensive end now.
Schalke, who was pressed on all fronts, suffered a great blow, and even silenced the originally boiling Feltings Arena for a while.
Qin Lang was dispatched, in the eighteenth minute of the game; Shouting and shouting Skrtel to return to the ball, seeing Qin Lang quickly rushing out of the small penalty area, Schalke's players seemed to understand something, and some bad memories flashed instantly.
They ran and chased hard, but where there was a flying ball fast; Seeing Qin Lang round his legs and pumping the ball vigorously, watching the ball go straight to the frontcourt, Schalke's players were really a little flustered.
Raheem Sterling's header was ferried, and Suarez forced Schalke defender Matip into the penalty area to form a one-on-one knife; For a moment, Schalke was left with only exclamations at home, because it was not only Suarez who was a lone man who posed a threat, but also Raheem Sterling, who followed up with a flank, who was a sufficient threat.
Suarez was forced to go outside by the chasing Hwedes, but his clever push caught Hwedes off guard; It was a dangerous shot, and the earnest Sterling came out with a scramble in front of the six-yard box; Onnastahl, who was facing the attack, raised his foot and made a slight block, which made Onnastahl completely panic as the ball went straight to the far corner.
It can't be said that Sterling took the credit, because his appearance was timely, otherwise Onnastahl would really have blocked Suarez's shot; It's just that the defenders of Onnastahl and Schalke were almost all attracted to Suarez, so the clever youngster made a timely strike to completely disrupt the opponent's rhythm.
1-0, Liverpool fell into passivity at the beginning and then reversed the hosts, withstanding the pressure and taking the lead in breaking the deadlock without dominating the field.
It was teenager Raheem Sterling who scored the goal and Suarez who provided the assist, and the two are now celebrating wildly, and they have indeed grabbed almost all of their attention.
But Qin Lang in front of the goal was smiling and applauding, because this counterattack was instigated by him; This made Qin Lang feel very cool and fulfilled, and this time he satisfied some of his sullen thoughts.
It is obvious that Qin Lang is not just strategizing on the defensive end, as long as he wants to, he can also do such things on the offensive end; He can use his excellent observation to deliver a fatal blow to his opponent, even if it is only an occasional 'flash of inspiration', even if it is only an occasional display of such grandeur, but it is enough to make people feel a sense of accomplishment.
Qin Lang really likes this feeling, and the feeling of hiding in a dark corner and putting a cold gun like this is really good.
Scoring goals, taking the lead, now you can naturally start to wave; Since the initiative is now in the hands of Liverpool, then at this time, it is natural to completely follow its own tactics.
Qin Lang is very proud, the Schalke players are really driven crazy now; This can be regarded as two consecutive overturns in the gutter, and the goals conceded at home and away are all related to Qin Lang, which really drove Schalke's players crazy.
At Anfield Stadium, Schalke originally occupied some advantages and initiatives, but Qin Lang's god foot crossed the entire stadium to complete the stunner. Now I am fighting at home, and I was actually instigated by a goalkeeper to complete a counterattack, and now I am behind again, and I feel the threat of defeat, and I want to cry without tears.
Schalke now have to start a frantic comeback, and there is no escape for this team; A defeat at home could well be third in the group for the time being, although there are still two remaining rounds of the group stage to try and turn the tables, but the pressure is high.
Qin Lang can now help the team to arrange the defense with peace of mind, and now he continues to defend strictly, and now he has to put on a super bus strategy. Qin Lang really doesn't have any thoughts, and Liverpool's players don't have too many thoughts now.
Because Schalke's players are really in good shape, and those guys are really impactful and aggressive; The last time at Anfield Stadium Liverpool was suppressed, and now at the Battlens Arena, Liverpool are still suppressed for a while, which really puts a lot of pressure on the players.
didn't care about the boos and abuse in the Feltings Arena at all, Qin Lang now began to arrange the defense line again and again, picking up the gaps again and again; What about the boos from the audience, it was really rewarding to see the Schalke players being beaten back again and again, and that team is now honestly thinking about how to clean up the mess, maybe their mind is to try to turn the tables in the remaining two rounds of the group stage.
At the end of the first half, the Liverpool players returned to the visiting dressing room with smiles and relaxed faces; What about the scolding, being able to get three points at home away from home is the biggest win.
Brendan Rodgers is also very happy, he has really been under a lot of pressure to come to Liverpool this season; Because Liverpool's starting point is relatively high, if Liverpool can't make some breakthroughs in the new season, then he Rodgers will have to carry the black pot, there is no doubt about it.
But now Rodgers doesn't have to worry too much, he doesn't have a very impressive resume, but it's a temporary success for now. Because his team has become the league leader, and the first place in the Champions League group stage is basically in his hands.
Rogers was genuinely accomplished, there's no doubt about that; I'm also very grateful for the players I have at my hands now, the players at Liverpool are really good, maybe the overall strength of the team is not particularly good, but this is a very united team, this is also a particularly complementary team, so the team is so effective now.
Continuing to defend to the death, Qin Lang and his teammates now know exactly what to do next; There is no need to fight hard, because they can see that Schalke's players are almost driven crazy, and Liverpool's players don't have too much thought, the main thing is that they have to start saving energy, and it is too tiring to play games in a row, running home and away.
It is precisely because he can see that there is a big problem with the team's physical fitness that Qin Lang will shamelessly ask his teammates to retract into the half of the court for all kinds of defenses, which is undoubtedly a thing, this is running for 1-0.
Although it may seem a bit risky, there is no doubt about it, because such a score is quite unsafe. It's just that Qin Lang is very confident, he will be very confident not to concede the goal, and he will believe that Liverpool will win the final victory in this game; The first place in the group, Liverpool is decided!
In the 63rd minute, Schalke's first shot of the second half was on goal; seized the loophole of Liverpool's midfielder conceding the ball, and also because of the lack of Liverpool's defensive ability, quickly pushed through the midfield to form a counterattack; Holterby took the ball straight and Huntelaar adjusted to the left side of the penalty area to aim for a left-footed volley into the far corner.
This adjustment is to give Qin Lang a chance, and there is nothing to hesitate about; Qin Lang was full of confidence, although Huntelaar had adjusted and was still aiming, Qin Lang could already move quickly. Going straight to the far corner, Qin Lang, who rose into the air, stretched his body, moved chicly, and blocked the ball with one palm, it was that simple.
Schalke fans are sad at this time, they have too many sad memories in this moment.
When Qin Lang was at Bayern, Schalke was deflated many times in the team that Qin Lang played for; Whether it is the league or the Champions League, it is difficult for Schalke to score on Qin Lang, and now such a situation has appeared again, and it is still impossible to score.
also because I thought of Qin Lang, I naturally thought of their former Schalke excellent goalkeeper Neuer; It's a pity that Neuer is now at Bayern, and although the current Onnastahl is strong, there is still a big gap with Neuer. Looking at Qin Lang's performance again, let's not talk about any instigated counterattacks, these defenses alone prove Qin Lang's value.
There's no drama at all, and I don't have any ideas at all; Qin Lang's defense is not airy, not to mention Qin Lang's excellent saves, just his command and dispatch on the defensive end is already desperate, because Schalke is difficult to penetrate Liverpool's defense, as for the ten finger pass that threatens the big boss Qin Lang after breaking through the defense, that is the real impossible task.
With a 1-0 away victory, Schalke now has to say that they have swallowed the bitter fruit of defeat; Liverpool, on the other hand, can now get down to the ground as they have won all four of their first four games in the group stage, and they have now won four straight games in the group stage to get 12 points, and they are now completely locked in the top spot in the group.
Top of the league, top of the group, this is a real super perfect start for Liverpool, Liverpool at the beginning of the new season is perfect, strong, this is a real perfect dream start, this is the beginning of Liverpool's super revival.
The fourth round ended, and the group stage performance was in full swing. The group stage entered the second half, and the game suddenly became fierce; After this round, Liverpool, Manchester United, Malaga and Porto have already secured their tickets to the round of 16.
Qin Lang really doesn't care about how other teams are performing now, he knows that many teams are actually under a lot of pressure in the group stage, and they may not be able to decide the promotion place until the last round, and they may always insist on the huge pressure of multi-front operations.
But there's nothing to worry about at all, the Liverpool players are down to earth and they can now enjoy the win in peace. The league is Liverpool's next task, and the remaining two rounds of the group stage can go to various soy sauces.
can return to Liverpool with a relaxed mentality, Qin Lang really has no more extravagance for the team's record during this time, because he knows that this is already the limit of what Liverpool can do, and this is even the best performance that Qin Lang expects the team to achieve.
The combination of the top teams in the league, Manchester and Chelsea, is not easy at all, and being able to stand out from these teams has proven Liverpool's quality.
And the first place in the Champions League group stage can also say a lot, although the strength of several other teams in this group is really average, but Liverpool did not make any mistakes and won all four games, such a stable performance is very satisfying, this is a manifestation of Liverpool's strength, this is the proof of Liverpool's strength.
To be sure, the Red Army performed strongly; Now they are in the limelight, maybe before the start of the season everyone did not think that Liverpool is the most championship-looking team, but now both fans and the media have to admit that Liverpool must now be considered for the championship!
