024 Helpless West Bromwich Albion
Qin Lang and his teammates struggled to draw 1-1 at Anfield Stadium by Borussia Dortmund, and Liverpool got another draw, but this time in the Champions League. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's not a strange scene, because Liverpool do have a few draws, which is nothing at all.
It's just that there is also a little unfamiliarity, naturally because the previous draw is usually Liverpool failed to score; This time, Liverpool scored, but the one that was considered the most reliable was defeated.
Qin Lang was naturally the most depressed person, because he originally thought that he was the patron saint of the team, but it didn't look like this; Although he is able to do these things most of the time, it is obvious that Qin Lang is not omnipotent, he can't really not make mistakes at all, and he can't always guarantee not to concede a goal.
That's how the first goal of the new season came and that's the reality; Although Qin Lang didn't want to admit it, he did lose the ball. Regardless of whether there was a little accident in this process, Qin Lang lost the ball anyway.
Qin Lang naturally expected this, and Qin Lang had been mentally prepared for this a long time ago; Qin Lang is indeed no stranger to conceding a goal, although this is indeed his first goal conceded this season, but he has conceded a goal before, not even one or two, this will not affect Qin Lang too much, just get used to it!
Qin Lang also knows very well that even the best goalkeeper cannot always not concede the goal; The current goal conceded is at most a little unhappy for Qin Lang, this is his first goal conceded this season, and it just broke the record of not conceding a goal this season.
Although Liverpool were held to a 1-1 draw by Borussia Dortmund, it will not affect Liverpool's advantage in the Champions League group stage, and they are still likely to be the first to qualify for the group, and they have a chance to top the group.
It's just that such a draw also makes the qualification place in Group F a little more complicated, because now the gap between the teams is very small, and everyone has the possibility of qualifying.
Liverpool have two wins and one draw, Napoli have two wins and one loss, and Borussia Dortmund has one win, one draw and one loss, and looking at the current points of these three teams, they all have a chance to qualify from the group and even win the group. Of course, Marseille doesn't need to think so much, this Ligue 1 team has basically announced that they will play soy sauce in the group stage, and they will not have a chance.
Qin Lang and his teammates believe that Liverpool still has a chance, and they all know that winning the first place in the group is still very sure for Liverpool. At most, that is, they need to continue to entangle, and Liverpool does not have much advantage right now.
Although it was a bit disappointing not to win Borussia Dortmund at home, and although it was a bit disappointing not to almost seal the group qualification earlier, Qin Lang and his teammates were well aware that they needed to move on.
Let's put the Champions League aside for the time being, there are still three rounds of matches; For Qin Lang and his teammates, they are also a little impatient, they are looking forward to the fourth round of the Champions League group stage, and they are looking forward to completing revenge.
Don't be in a hurry, Qin Lang and his teammates will go to the Signa Ituna Park in a week; Although the famous West** Stadium is more famous and historical, the naming rights have been sold, so it is called.
For Qin Lang and his teammates, it must have been a bit disappointing to fail to win against Dortmund at Anfield, but they didn't pay much attention to it. Liverpool have only been forced to draw, and Liverpool have not yet lost; Then when it comes to Dortmund's turf, Liverpool will completely change this draw.
Coming to Anfield, it was a revenge for Dortmund; But the next time we go to Signa Idona Park, it will be a moment of revenge for Liverpool, and it will also be the moment when Liverpool will completely hold the right to qualify for the Champions League group, because Liverpool can't have any more accidents, they must win!
Qin Lang and his team-mates are now starting to focus on the league, they need to start to put away the frustration of being held to a draw in the Champions League, and they need to move on.
For Liverpool, playing on two fronts must take into account the factors of the schedule, and it is obvious that Qin Lang and his teammates will be physically burdened by the intensive schedule, and they will be physically burdened by the continuous travel to the away stadium.
This is quite obvious, Qin Lang and his teammates know that this will be a burden, and this must be taken into account, but it must also be overcome.
The ninth round of the league continues, and Liverpool sit at Anfield to welcome West Bromwich Albion; Liverpool, who sit at the top of the table, is still a little confident against West Bromwich Albion, although West Brom is in twelfth place with two wins, four draws and two losses in eight rounds, which is indeed a good result, but it is really nothing for Liverpool.
Considering that the team needs to prepare for the next Champions League group stage, and considering the fitness of the players, Liverpool have a little rotation in this game.
goalkeeper Qin Lang, Johnson, Skrtel, Saco and Toure on the back line; Midfielders Jordan Henderson, Steven Gerrard, Sissoko and Raheem Sterling, with striker Sturridge partnering Suarez.
Liverpool still have a little bit of squad depth, although compared to some giants Liverpool may be a little lacking in bench depth, but compared to the past two seasons there is still a slight advantage, which is where Liverpool has improved.
The Liverpool players playing at home are still holding their breath in their hearts, they also want to continue to lead the league table at Anfield, and they want to continue to play a high level in the league.
It is necessary to maintain the advantage in the league and the Liverpool players are eager to make a breakthrough in the league; Now that the initiative is in their hands, and now that Liverpool are gaining confidence and initiative, then don't miss it again.
Last season, the team failed to grasp their advantage in leading the table, so they lost the league title in the last minute; And now, Liverpool won't make that mistake again.
The first half began with West Bromwich Albion taking the lead.
Qin Lang, who is sitting in the back line, is very focused in this game, and the record of not conceding a goal for the longest time in the Champions League is unlikely to be won in a short time; But in the league, Qin Lang still maintains a clean sheet, and he wants to make history, so he needs to continue to work hard and maintain a good enough dominance on the defensive end.
Henderson, the midfield barrier, needs to run, and he needs to block West Bromwich Albion attacks at any time; As for Liverpool's defenders, under the command of Qin Lang, they maintain a unified pace, and while blocking West Brom's offensive tightly, Liverpool is also constantly compressing West Brom's activity space.
This is certainly good news for Liverpool, and the atmosphere at Anfield is naturally getting hotter and hotter, and the Reds fans can see that the team is starting to take the initiative in the game, and as long as the team continues to play like this and be aggressive, then it seems that the victory in this game is a matter of course.
To be honest, Liverpool fans are no stranger to this scene, so they are more confident.
Qin Lang knows very well that although sometimes he can win the opponent in one go in the game; But more often than not, they still slowly occupy some initiative on the court, which will be more sustainable, so that it will be easier to win the game.
In the seventh minute, Suarez had the first shot of the game from either side, and his long-range shot from outside the box went wide of the right post. A minute later, Gerrard's long-range shot failed to threaten.
Liverpool began to take the initiative more and more obviously, and Liverpool began to attack the opponent's defence after having a certain advantage, and began to make West Brom feel threatened.
Qin Lang is already standing outside the penalty area, not only because he is directing the team's defense, but also because the current West Brom has no offensive ability at all, they really have no chance of breaking through Liverpool's defense, Qin Lang is now in the state of spectators on the field, and now it is time to watch his teammates play bravely, Qin Lang is now waiting for the team to score.
Sure enough, in the twelfth minute, Liverpool opened the scoring.
It wasn't a good chance, Liverpool just slowly pushed to the front; However, Suarez had the chance to face the goalkeeper directly after a pair of players from just outside the box, and a cool push past West Brom goalkeeper McHill gave Liverpool a 1-0 lead at home.
The atmosphere at Anfield exploded all of a sudden, because Liverpool scored a goal, and the team was very sure to win the opponent and continue to lead the standings; Of course, it is also because Suarez's goal is really beautiful, and the return of Suarez can bring too much help to the team, and he has not been overshadowed by Sturridge's crazy outburst this season.
Qin Lang originally thought that the West Brom players might fight back, and thought that the Liverpool players would relax after scoring a goal, but Liverpool did not relax, they still maintained enough hard work and aggression, and they wanted to kill the suspense of the game in one go.
Liverpool, who continued to maintain enough aggressiveness, made West Brom breathless at all, Liverpool's defense still maintained enough pressure, and it was difficult for West Brom players to easily push the ball through the half, as for threatening Qin Lang's goal, it was even more rare, it was almost impossible.
Liverpool are still looking for the back of the net as they keep attacking West Bromwich Albion's goal.
In the seventeenth minute, Suarez combined with Sissoko on the left, Suarez received Sissoko's cross on the penalty line and scored the goal, and Liverpool extended the score to 2-0!
This time, Liverpool fans are completely down-to-earth, and they are all 2-0, so don't expect West Brom to equalize; Qin Lang may concede a goal, but the fans of the Reds absolutely do not believe that West Brom can penetrate the goal guarded by Qin Lang twice, and Qin Lang will not let the accident happen twice in a row.
It doesn't matter if West Brom have the world's No. 1 talented striker Anelka in cumulative transfer value up front; Because Anelka is no longer at his peak, the continuous frequent transfers have prevented the talented striker from maximizing his potential, he is no longer the super striker who scares the goalkeepers, this is just a veteran who is looking for opportunities!
Qin Lang didn't feel relaxed because the team was now 2-0, of course he knew that Liverpool would win this game; But for Qin Lang, the battle has just begun, because Qin Lang's goal is to keep not conceding a goal, he doesn't want to concede a goal in the league after conceding his first goal in the Champions League, and he also wants to break the league's record for the longest time without conceding a goal!
Therefore, even if the team is now 2-0, Qin Lang still needs to maintain enough concentration; Even at this point he needs to be more focused because he is worried that the team will relax after 2-0.
Such fears have really arisen, because there was a precedent for Liverpool in the past, because Liverpool's players were really not as focused as before after leading by two goals, and Liverpool players seem to have started to get ready for the Champions League and Dortmund games.
West Brom struggled to push the ball to the front, Sessegnon got up and hoisted the ball into the penalty area, but Qin Lang jumped high and slapped the pass to defuse it; West Brom defender Olsen smashed his header wide and he walked back in frustration.
Half an hour into the game, West Brom didn't have a shot on goal yet to do so, which was frustrating indeed.
Qin Lang still maintained enough focus and asked his teammates to continue to stay focused on the defensive end; Liverpool's players are now more or less aware that Qin Lang wants to create a record of not conceding a goal, because Qin Lang really has a chance to do this, and he still holds the record of not conceding a goal, and it is now the ninth round of the league.
The West Brom players were still struggling, and in the final moments of the first half, a long ball smashed through the Liverpool defence; The veteran Anelka got a one-on-one chance, and at this moment he burst into the style of a once top striker.
It's just that Qin Lang killed violently, although Anelka tried his best, but Qin Lang's desperate sliding shovel made Anelka powerless, and in order to avoid being shoveled down by Qin Lang, he jumped over Qin Lang's body.
It was 2-0 in the first half, almost overwhelming West Bromwich Albion; But Liverpool didn't let go of the break and continued to score goals shortly after the start of the second half.
Steven Gerrard headed in a free-kick and Suarez nodded home to extend Liverpool's advantage to 3-0 and Suarez scored his first hat-trick of the season.
As for West Bromwich Albion, although Henderson's handball in the box in the 65th minute gave West Brom a penalty opportunity, the West Brom players were almost desperate.
Qin Lang struggled to save Anelka's penalty, Qin Lang continued to maintain the record of not conceding a penalty, Qin Lang continued to maintain the state of not conceding a goal in the league, West Brom could not do anything!
