1329 Goal Shootout
Shakhtar Donetsk's offensive in the second half of the game did make Liverpool a little overwhelmed, especially the impact of continuous attacks surprised Liverpool.
In the 52nd minute of the game, Fernandinho launched a fast attack after a successful steal of Merreles in the middle of the field, and he sent the ball to the feet of William with a diagonal pass, Willian cut inside on the left side of the field to shake off Kelly's defense, and then he unexpectedly fired a cold shot.
Reyna made a quick move but made a save, and the ball that was blocked in the opposite direction was saved by Douglas Costa in front of goal and sent it inside the net.
Shakhtar Donetsk's home fans were in a frenzy.
As far as this match is concerned, the score has become 3:1.
There are almost 40 minutes left in the game.
Shakhtar Donetsk only need three more goals to send the game to extra time!
There's still plenty of time.
Coman couldn't sit still at this point.
He called Qin Xiong up and asked Qin Xiong to warm up.
When Qin Xiong went to warm up, the home fans in the nearby stands booed him and Liverpool!
In their opinion, Liverpool did not exert their main force at the beginning, and when the score was behind and the situation was not good, they had to send superstars to play, which was self-inflicted after Toda played!
Who made Liverpool look down on us!
Have the ability to let Qin Xiong, Alonso, Gerrard and others sit on the bench and don't play!
In fact, it is also Shakhtar Donetsk fans who know that if Qin Xiong and others play, then the Ukrainian team will inevitably be eliminated.
There is no suspense in this.
Now the situation is in Shakhtar Donetsk's favor, but I didn't expect Liverpool to deploy troops.
Of course, they will be dissatisfied, and use boos to mock Liverpool's conceit that they are going to play with fire and set themselves on fire, and at the same time, they are also influencing and interfering with Qin Xiong's thinking.
Liverpool were very passive on the pitch, and the counter-attacks gradually began to be unable to play, because Shakhtar Donetsk was also constantly adjusting. In particular, they are more united and have stronger overall strength.
After Qin Xiong warmed up, Coman called him to his side, covered his mouth and whispered to Qin Xiong: "I originally thought that the Donetsk Shakhtars' 6:2 double kill of Rome was an accident, but now it seems that I underestimated the enemy, and they finally killed Rome by hard power." In this stadium that we are not familiar with, you have also seen the fighting power of Shakhtar Donetsk, now we have to let you play, go, help us turn the situation around, we just need to do a good job of switching attack and defense to be able to contain Shakhtar Donetsk, be careful after playing, don't get hurt. ”
Qin Xiong nodded indifferently, and Coman patted him on the shoulder and pushed him to the edge of the midline.
58th minute of the game. Willian blasted the ball into the stands with a long-range shot and Liverpool were given a chance to make a substitution.
The teenager Sterling was substituted, and Qin Xiong appeared!
After Qin Xiong came on the field, Liverpool's formation changed to 4312.
He moves alone in the midfield area, mainly attacking in tandem and feeding the two forwards.
In the 63rd minute of the game, after Liverpool's dense defense at the back, Costa's in-cut breakthrough was successfully tackled by Tiot, and the ball was passed to Qin Xiong's feet with three passes and two downs in the backfield.
Qin Xiong accelerated the ball in front of the court and broke through Miksitaryan, and then came with a long-range shot from 30 yards from the goal!
The soccer ball flew up to the stands about half a meter above the crossbar.
Qin Xiong just tried the feeling.
Three minutes later. When Fernandinho latched in from behind to meet Srna's cross and a volley was blocked by Mascherano with his body, the ball flew towards the centre circle.
Qin Xiong stopped the ball with his back to Miksitarian. Then he turned to the left, and Miksitarian immediately moved, but when he did, he was stunned to find that the ball was still in place.
After Qin Xiong stopped, he flexibly accelerated the ball from the right side and brushed him over.
As he dribbled the ball to the 40-yard area, Srna rushed to defend Qin Xiong, while another full-back, Rattle, rushed forward to act as a barrier at the back.
Qin Xiong ignored the two of them, and used the outside instep to rub out a forward external rotation arc ball over the top and plugged it straight over.
Centre-back Rajitski jumped up as he retreated and tried to clear the ball with a header. But the ball flew over his head with his hair brushed.
He's on top!
Kuyt shoots a header straight forward from the side!
The header was so powerful that it smashed the ball straight into the bottom left corner of the goal.
Goalkeeper Pyatov was completely unprepared, more like he was caught off guard by a bolt from the blue.
Liverpool scored their second goal away!
The faces of the Shakhtars of Donetsk are a little ugly, and their expressions are different.
This goal complicates the game because the score is not as simple as it appears.
3:2
The overall score is 8:4
Liverpool have two away goals.
That said, Shakhtar Donetsk isn't just about tying the score. It takes one more goal than Liverpool to turn the tables around!
They now need to score five goals in a row to pull off the miracle of a super comeback!
This is simply not possible.
Playing Liverpool 5 goals in less than 30 minutes?
Even if Liverpool sent some substitutes to play, it was not the strength of the fish belly team that made Shakhtar Donetsk abuse vegetables!
After collecting their emotions a bit, Shakhtar Donetsk waited for the game to restart and regrouped, they no longer think about reaching the last four of the Champions League, but they have to play their own style at home, play their strengths, and can't let Liverpool leave here too easily, and as winners.
In the 76th minute of the game, Srna crossed from the side, and Adriano unexpectedly did not head the ball in front of the goal, but turned the ball back with a header.
After Judson broke through Mascherano's defense, **** stopped the ball and followed it up with a volley!
Agg, who was in front of him, turned and used his back to block, but the turn was too slow, allowing the football to hit him in the back and refract, and the football that had been flying to the right side of the goal bounced off the bottom left corner of the goal.
Reyna gave up after a reluctant run of two steps in front of the goal line.
Shakhtar Donetsk rewrote the score to 8:5.
At this time, Coman again redeployed his troops and replaced Raul with Baines.
Aurelio pushed on the wing-back, and Baynes played full-back, so that Qin Xiong's offensive ability was activated.
In the 84th minute of the game, Baynes made a direct pass from the backfield, and Aurelio went into the vicinity of the baseline after cooperating with Qin Xiong in the frontcourt.
He knocked the ball horizontally into the penalty area, Qin Xiong stopped the ball under Ishchenko's defense, when Kuyt ran to answer, Qin Xiong pulled the ball back with his back to Ishchenko, the football rolled between Ishchenko's legs, he turned to look and saw Kuyt coming to answer, and Qin Xiong turned to kill from the side, Kuyt shorted the ball to Qin Xiong's feet.
Qin Xiong, who was playing the ball sideways in the penalty area, didn't wait for Miksitarian and Rajitsky to block it, and then he shot out with a blast!
The ball was so close to the goal that it didn't give Pyatov any time to react, and the ball flew into the goal like a meteor in the blink of an eye!
9:5!
Liverpool lock up the Champions League semi-finals! (To be continued.) )
