Chapter 129: The Competition for the Best Shooter (Second Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass!) )

The main content of Chen Yingxing's brush copy is actually very boring (). After entering the dungeon, I first warmed up for half an hour, and then began to repeat the boring practice of stopping the ball.

The person who passed the ball to him was not Basten, Basten was responsible for watching from the side, if Chen Yingying didn't stop well, he would blow the whistle to stop, and then analyze with Chen Yingying why his ball didn't stop well, what the problem was, and how to improve ().

The person who passed the ball to him was ...... Maradona.

Because he is always at odds with Chen Yingying, you can imagine the situation Chen Yingying is facing. None of the passes Maradona gave him were easy to catch!

He didn't stop the first time, and then he was laughed at by Maradona.

Chen Yingying glared at him fiercely.

"What are you doing? Stare at me? I'm telling you, it's no use staring at me! Maradona said as he spun the light and kicked the ball again.

Of course, Chen Yingying stopped losing again this time......

In this way, because of the relationship between the two people, Maradona's passing never gave Chen Yingying face, and it was all according to the standard of "how difficult it is to stop and how to pass".

And because of the relationship between the two people, Maradona's deliberate difficulty aroused Chen Yingying's fighting spirit - Lao Tzu can't lose to anyone!

So he practiced desperately, fighting with Maradona while practicing hard.

Perhaps he didn't realize that in the process of competing with Maradona, it would be of great benefit to his ability to stop the ball.

For the purpose of this exercise, in fact, he doesn't care anymore, he wants to compete with Maradona now.

Of course, Basten knew that Chen Yingying was competing with Maradona, which is why he wanted Maradona to pair with Chen Yingying to practice. He knew that Chen Yingying was a person who became stronger and stronger, and if the opponent did not deal with him, then he would have more motivation to improve himself and step on the opponent, so that he would not have to worry about his slow progress.

Chen scored two goals against Newcastle United to increase his tally to 27 in the Premier League this season.

But he still hasn't been able to get past Van Persie, who has scored 30 goals so far, and the gap between Chen Yingying and him is still three.

With seven rounds left in the league, the battle between the two goalscorers has also entered a white-hot stage.

Liverpool finally came out on 7 April when they returned to home to win as they beat Aston Villa 3-1 at Anfield. Johnson scored one goal each.

Van Persie also scored in the other game that ended earlier, as Arsenal drew 2-2 at home to Manchester City.

City are now three points behind Manchester United in the race for the league title, and this season Manchester City and Manchester United have both been eliminated in the Champions League and Europa League, allowing them to put all their energy into the league. As a result, the competition for the league championship is becoming more and more hot.

In the 33rd round, Liverpool challenged Blackburn Rovers away.

Chen Yingying scored again. As everyone thinks, once Chen Yingying breaks the goal drought, the next step will definitely be a steady stream of goals. However, he also scored those two free kicks, and the next two goals were scored with his feet, one was a long-range shot, and the other was a pass from Suarez in the penalty area and easily pushed the empty goal.

Dalglish was completely relieved. In fact, Chen Yingying has the ability to score goals with his feet, but he needs to go through a change in thinking before, and he has to abandon the original habit, and once the habit is formed, it is not possible to change it in a short time.

Now that he sees Chen Yingying's performance, he thinks that Chen Yingying has corrected his habits. At least now he really rarely fights for headers in games. Even when he jumps, he uses his chest to stop the ball – the Brazilian centre-backs prefer to do that, and when there is a ball in the air, they will definitely choose to jump up and stop the ball with their chest without using their heads, and then hand it over to their feet to solve the problem ().

Now Chen Yingying is doing the same, but not out of habit, but out of helplessness.

Although you can score goals with your feet, you can't use your headers, which still affects Liverpool's results. For example, this time the hero's goal did not bring Liverpool a victory, and they drew again. Drawn away from Blackburn, Liverpool's results have been very inconsistent and exposed a lot of problems.

One of them is mainly due to the discomfort caused by adjusting the tactics that everyone has been accustomed to for most of the season.

Chen Yingxing's state has recovered, but Liverpool has not recovered......

But Dalglish doesn't care anymore, Champions League? He can't think about it now, he led the team to win the Champions League, and he will not stay in the team next season to continue to lead the team to play in the Champions League. Now that his goal of playing in Europe next season has been achieved, he is now focused on correcting his team's tactical thinking, no longer playing high, but focusing more on ground attacks and more ground passing.

And it's not just a matter of the team's tactics that need to be re-adapted.

There is also the issue of player allocation. In the past, the team's player configuration was based on the tactical idea of lifting high and playing high, but now it has suddenly changed, and many players are not as good as before. Coupled with frequent injuries, Dalglish is also overstretched when arranging the lineup, and it is very good to be able to discharge eleven opponents, as for the matter of discharging the strongest lineup, it is not considered at all......

On 16 April, the FA Cup semi-finals began. Liverpool meet a resurgence of form against Chelsea in the semi-finals.

It was a pretty miserable game.

Meireles, who played for Liverpool and was sold to Chelsea by Liverpool this summer, was sent off for accumulating two yellow cards in the game.

And Liverpool's midfielder Charlie. Adam and post-90s teenager Martin. Kelly was injured during the game. Among them Martin. Kelly's injury is slightly lighter and there is hope to make it back in time for the weekend's league game. And Charlie. Adam's injury is a bit of a no-brainer, with the result of the examination being that he needs surgery and will miss the remainder of the season.

This result made Dalglish very helpless, and the team has been like an evil this season, with frequent injuries, and all of them are serious injuries. Gerrard has not had a good time, and now it is even more reimbursed for the season, and just as unlucky as him is Lucas, Suarez has been out of action for more than three months after the season was interrupted, and now another midfielder Charlie. Adam was injured again, and he really didn't know what to do with the players.

And Liverpool, who paid such a heavy price, finally lost to Chelsea 2-3 away and missed the FA Cup final. Hopes of winning a cup grand slam this season have been dashed......

Chen Yingying did not score in this FA Cup game, but he did have an assist for the first time.

In the 34th round of the league, Liverpool hosts Fulham.

The hero scored twice again and also helped Liverpool beat Fulham 3-0 at their home turf.

Liverpool, who have gradually adapted to the new tactics, have also improved, at least on their home turf.

Although the away performance is still a little inconsistent......

But given the team's current situation, there is really no way to ask for more.

Liverpool have basically lost their chance of finishing in the top four this season, although they have just overtaken Newcastle to become seventh in the league with a win in this game. However, they are nine points clear of fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur. There are four rounds left in the league, and as long as they lose one, the season will be out of play.

Even if they win the next four league games, they still have two teams ahead of them. Besides, as long as Tottenham Hotspur wins in the next round of the league, then no matter what the result is on Liverpool's side, there will be no play. In the next three rounds, even if they chase the same score, it will be difficult to fight for goal difference.

Therefore, Liverpool only have one task left this season, and that is to help the team's top scorer Chen Yingying win a top scorer ().

It's a personal honour and it's great for the team.

After all, it is a very honorable thing for the league golden boot to be in your own team.

The team is now dominated by ground attack, and Suarez's performance has suddenly become active, before everything was in the air, Suarez has not used a header for a hundred years, can only get to the side to cross, or be responsible for controlling the second drop.

His performance can be imagined.

Now, after the ground offensive, Suarez's most formidable weapon has the most expansive use – his dribbling and breaking.

Suarez is a good dribbling player and his footwork is already top of the game in the Premier League.

So Dalglish gave Suarez the task of using his dribbling to disrupt the opponent's defense and then give Chen Yingying an assist.

This will inevitably sacrifice Suarez's goal count, and if it had been six months ago, Suarez would definitely not have agreed. Maybe how to make Chen Yingying bad.

But now, he nodded and agreed without saying a word.

He is not a selfish man, otherwise he would not have been able to complete 14 assists in one season and be elected Ajax's assist leader that season.

In the 35th round of the league, Liverpool host West Bromwich Albion, a team in the middle and bottom of the table, with no relegation and no hope of European competition, but that doesn't mean they will be desperate. You must know that the distribution of TV bonuses at the end of a season is based on the team's final ranking for the season, and the higher the ranking, the more money you will have, so as long as there is hope, everyone wants to go further.

Prior to this game, there were only two goals between Chen Yingxing and Van Persie - Chen Yingying scored twice in the last round of the league and Van Persie scored only one goal ().

The gap between the two people has been narrowed.

Chen Yingying felt the benefits of dungeon training in the game, although he had just started training, he had already heard some balls better than before.

Maradona's pass is tricky, awkward, and difficult to stop, but in the game, who deliberately passed the ball to Chen Yingying like this? So most of the time the passes of teammates are better than Maradona's balls.

He also deeply understood Basten's saying that "the ball stops well, not the opportunity is the chance".

He felt it personally in the game against West Bromwich Albion.

At that time Adam. Johnson's pass to himself hit the opposing defender, there was a line change, and there was a strong spin, and the ball was not easy to stop.

Thanks to Maradona's deliberate difficulty, Chen Yingying had a flash of inspiration at that moment, bent his knee joint, and used his calf and thigh to make a double stop, the football hit the calf first, and was pressed down by the thigh when it bounced up, and the football, which was difficult to stop, fell to the ground obediently and stopped very steadily.

Then Chen Yingying took a shot with his feet, and the football flew into the opponent's goal.

He's scoring again!

The game relied on goals from Chen Yingying and Bellamy, and Liverpool beat West Bromwich Albion 2-0 at home.

There was good news from the other pitch – Arsenal lost at home to Chelsea and Robin van Persie failed to score.

Now the two are only one goal difference of one!

Chen Yingying, he chased after him!
