Chapter 139: What Rhythm Is This?

Simon? After Grayson came to Liverpool with the "Young Guards", they were besieged by local journalists, the relationship between the two clubs is okay, but there are no fans to besiege the team, but these reporters are also as annoying as buzzing flies, one by one with long guns and short guns to catch Leeds players for interviews.

Simon in the end? Grayson had to lodge a solemn protest against the hotel where he was staying, claiming that he wanted to expose the accommodation environment of this hotel, which forced the hotel to block the entire Leeds United floor, and the "Young Guard" was considered to be peaceful.

The next morning, Simon? Grayson gave his team a good rest, and it wasn't until after lunch that he had a pre-game meeting, which was really not much to say, just to boost the team's morale.

The tactics of the "Young Guard" have taken shape, Simon? Grayson has set two sets of tactics for the team, one is the team's most commonly used tactics with Shaq as the core, attacking and defending around him, and the other is a 4-1-3-2 tactic, which is actually the evolution of replacing Shaq with a forward and a back in the case of reducing a central defender.

It's just that after trying, it turns out that the "Young Guard" is still playing the tactics with Shaq as the core to be more combative, and when the team divides Shaq's tasks to the front and back, Leeds United can only be regarded as a strong team, and there is a big gap compared to the first-class strong team when Shaq is present.

This time against the "Reds" Liverpool, Leeds United is of course going to give all their strength to fight, Simon? Grayson also completely used the same lineup that he used to beat West Brom 3-0 in the first round.

Leeds United still has a bit of a psychological advantage against Liverpool, although this season's "Reds" are much stronger than last season, but Leeds United is not without improvement.

In the afternoon, Brendan Rodgers announced the Reds' starting line-up at his pre-match press conference at Anfield. Liverpool lined up a 4-2-3-1 formation for this game, with Suarez playing as a lone striker, and behind him was Hamshik, Gerrard and Torge lined up from left to right.

In the arrangement of the double back, Rodgers used Lucas? Reva and Bryce? Teddy Ma.

How much does this arrangement still make Simon? Grayson was a bit of a surprise because both of them were players who tended to play playfully. Neither of them is very good defensively, and this time Rodgers arranged it like this, is he worried that his midfield will lose his playmaking ability because he can't withstand Shaq's pressing?

On the back line, Jose? Enrique, Kyle? Walker guards the left and right wings, but the two central defenders are a pair of Ukrainian national team combinations, and the new Liverpool Ukrainian player Yaroslav? Leksky provided the "Reds" with a solid defense in the last Europa League game, and he was partnered with Dmytro, who had a very tacit understanding with the Ukrainian national team? Zyglinski, this time Rodgers found another way to make a Ukrainian center-back combination, which also made this season's "Reds" more interesting.

Goalkeeper position. is still the Spanish door god Reina.

At 15:30 in the afternoon, in the home team dressing room at Anfield Stadium, Rodgers was still emphasizing again and again: "Reva, Bryce, you two must remember, when we are defending, one of you must keep an eye on Shaq, this kid is too dangerous, must not relax!" When we were on the offensive. The one of the two of you who is far away from Shaq is going to organize the team's attack, and that's something to remember! ”

"Understood!"

"Yes!"

Brazilian defender Lucas replied cheerfully. He's seen how amazing Shaq was last season, and that kind of performance really seems to have surpassed the limits of human beings, and this season he will become more mature, and naturally...... More terrifying!

New French signing Blake? Matedi replied a little reluctantly, the 26-year-old black player was once a French talent on the same level as "duck" Nasri, and they used to be good partners in the French U19 and U21 national teams. It was only then that Nasri quickly rose to prominence at Arsenal and became a superstar, while Blake? Teddy only landed in the world's No. 1 league this season, and he also came for fame and fortune, but now he is more mature than Nasri.

It's just that after two years of playing at Paris Saint-Germain. Black? Martedi is already very confident, although he respects the manager's tactical arrangement, but he still feels that it is a bit too much of a fuss, a twenty-year-old kid, even if he is a genius, how powerful can he be?

Black? Matedi's contempt for Shaq was completely put away just a minute into the game.

After kicking off the first shot, Leeds United sent the ball to the back and then attacked from the right, where Pivkowski cut inside and then sent the ball to the left with a long ball.

Leeds United's biggest reliance on the "Leeds Three" attacking system on the left was at full capacity in an instant......

Johnny? Hausen received the ball and rushed forward along the touchline, Kyle? Walker had to step back, and Ben? Parker's quick follow-up made Torge, who was unable to retreat in time, scramble, but the Leeds captain's return pass was just right.

Root? Parker was originally a fast assist-type fullback, and his crossing skills are getting better and better. Teddy had to leave Shaq behind and run over to stop Ben? Parker.

"Smack!"

Bryce over here? As soon as Matedi left, his partner Lucas hadn't made up for it yet. Parker's pass came first, Bryce? Teddy stopped, turned around and tried to prevent Shaq, but it was too late!

"Smack!"

Shaq's right foot stopped the ball into his control......

"Tom!"

Just one step forward, Shaq's left foot slammed into the ball!

"Whoosh!"

Ball in Blythe? Teddy flew over in a flash......

Bryce? Matedi was horrified to find that Shaq, who had been repeatedly mentioned by his head coach and valued by his new teammates, was still full of power and the ball was spinning rapidly in such a fast, even hasty situation. There seems to be a "sizzle" sound breaking the air!

This...... It's horrible!

And...... The position of this kick is still six or seven meters away from the big penalty area line!

"Bang!"

Shaq's long-range shot penetrated Liverpool's entire defense, but failed to penetrate Reina, and the Spanish goalkeeper's attention was very focused, and he was already on guard against Shaq's long-range shot early in the morning, and he knocked the ball out with both fists. It was a dismantling of Leeds United's attack.

A minute later, Bryce? Matedy once again realized how strong Shaq really is, the only real midfielder of Leeds United, has been withdrawn to his big penalty area in an instant, and he will put Liverpool left-back No. 3 Jose? Enrique's cross is headed over.

Bryce? Teddy couldn't help but mutter, "How can there be such a monster!?" ”

In the next few minutes, the "Reds" Liverpool at home carefully tried to attack, even if it was at their home stadium Anfield, they still did not dare to underestimate the "Young Guards", last season's league runners-up.

Leeds United failed to create any real chances, and "Leeds time" was out of action in front of a defending-focused Liverpool.

Until 10 minutes into the game. The situation on the pitch has changed dramatically............

Johnny? After receiving a pass from Shaq on the left side of the Liverpool penalty area, Howson cut inside with the ball, but he broke through Kyle with the ball? Walker, but the opponent stopped the ball with his left leg.

Looking at Kyle? Walker took control of the ball as soon as he turned around, and the Leeds captain was in a hurry to make a backtackle directly in the opponent's big penalty area. Walker fell to the ground, but the referee's whistle sounded............

"Cards out! The cards must be played! Johnny? The foul was too obvious. It's so rampant! He dared to tackle in our big penalty area! ”

There was boos at Anfield Stadium as the KOPs said to Jonny? Hausen was quite dissatisfied with this action. Johnny? Haosen also got up and hurriedly went to pull up Kyle? Walker, he did lose his cool for a moment just now, and quickly slapped Kyle with a smile? Walker's shoulder, and then when he turned his head, he couldn't laugh............

"Oh――――――"

There were cheers at Anfield and the commentator shouted wildly: "Red card! It turned out to be a red card! Referee Mike? Jones gave Captain Leeds a red card! The penalty ...... Kindness. It seems that the penalty scale for today's game is very harsh! ”

Johnny? Haosen was stunned and looked at the red card in front of him, his head was buzzing, and he didn't know how to think, how could it be...... How can it be?

The place of the foul was in the opponent's penalty area, and there was no tactical foul at all, but it was just a counter-tackle in a hurry. And I've already closed my feet, how can it still be a red card!?

This red card made the "Young Guard" all shocked and inexplicable. Parker, Tevez and others also stepped forward to ask the referee for an explanation, and if it was a yellow card, it would have been counted, but ...... Red?

That's a bit too much, isn't it!?

"Nope! There was nothing wrong with my decision, he tackled with both feet! ”

Mike? Jones's explanation is this, but it is still difficult to convince the public, and the players of Leeds United are quite unhappy, but no one can do anything.

"Shaq, everything...... It's up to you! ”

After giving the captain's armband to Shaq, Jonny? Hausen drooped his head and walked out of the pitch with a weak breath......

Conspiracy!

That's the conspiracy!

Simon? Grayson clenched his fists tightly, but didn't say much, he had a hunch that his team must have been calculated this time, but he still made adjustments to the team, he let Pivkowski go to the left, and then let "The Beast" Tevez move to the right, and only Nelson was left on the front line? Oliveira alone.

Liverpool coach Brendan Rodgers showed a relaxed expression on his face, and the players and KOPs of the "Reds" also saw the team's real 11-on-10 advantage. Grayson also had a premonition that his team was in trouble, but none of them could have predicted the outcome of the game...... Because there's a guy on this pitch who already has the ability to change the game on his own.

With 15 minutes played, Leeds United sent a throw-in from the left and rushed to Madias, who was in the opponent's penalty area? Caruzo sent the ball back to the feet of Shaq, who stood on the left side of the Liverpool penalty area and slashed his leg to shoot, and the ball flew to the top right corner of Liverpool's goal with a "bang", and Reina reacted quickly to lift the ball out...... Corner kick!

Leeds United took a tactical corner, and "The Beast" Tevez made a match with his fellow countryman, Madias? Caruzo fired a shot into the corner of the six-yard box on the right, and the ball flew off the left baseline after being blocked by Suarez...... Corner kick!

There has already been a tactical corner, this time Ben? Parker kicked the ball directly to the back of the right, and Shaq was standing in that position, although there was Bryce in front of him? Teddy Ma, Jose? Enrique is flanked by two people, but Ben? Parker kicked the ball over anyway.

"Whoosh!"

The ball flew into the small penalty area on the right side of Liverpool, and it was fast and ...... high Not low!

At the very least, Jose? Enrique, Bryce? Neither of them could touch the ball after they jumped!

Everyone thought that the ball was going to fly out of the other sideline, even Reina thought so, but suddenly Reina saw a backward head appear next to the ball, and then rushed forward and hit the ball!

"Boom!"

The ball flew towards the Liverpool goal......

"Shaq! Shaq got the ball? It's so high! ”

Although Reina is thirty years old, his reaction is still very fast, and he pounces on a fish leap to the left, but the ball smashed by Shaq bounced on the lawn first, and then flew over, his body is sinking, but the ball is rising upwards, Reina's palm "snapped" and swept the ball, but finally failed to stop the ball......

The ball flew into the Liverpool goal!

The ball went in!?

There was a dead silence at Anfield Stadium, and everyone couldn't believe what they were seeing, and the "Young Guards", who were playing away from home and had one less player, turned over to the first goal!?

This...... What's going on!?

Is this the rhythm that Leeds United are going against the sky on the road!?

Yesterday 10+1 made it +5, and there were 7 chapters a day, and today ...... How much will it be? (To be continued......)
