Chapter 981 is not a bad draw

The first kick-off in the second half was played by Porto, who were playing at home. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Porto continue their tactics of short pass penetration in the middle and individual assault on the side, due to the harsh penalty scale of the referee Michel, Porto of the technical flow is very comfortable, and Liverpool of the power flow is very passive, because the body contact is a little bigger, it will be blown foul, and Liverpool's players are used to the Premier League's style of play, how can it be so easy to change the habit, so Liverpool's fouls are much more than Porto's, and it also gives Porto a lot of free kick opportunities, but Liverpool's defense in the penalty area is very good, Didn't let Porto turn a free-kick into a goal.

However, such frequent whistled fouls also made Liverpool's players irritable, some were blown too afraid to make moves, while others made bigger moves.

In the 50th minute, Quaresma returned to the right side where he had played at the start of the first half, and Porto's focus immediately shifted to the right.

Quaresma received the ball in the face of Pennant's defense, today's Quaresma was full of confidence, and relied on the referee's strict penalty scale, when Pennant came to steal, he made a gesture to turn back to protect the ball, but suddenly turned around and passed Pennant.

In fact, Pennant still has left-back Riese behind him, even if Rieser can't stop Quaresma, there are also backs and central defenders who can fill the position, Pennant can completely let Quaresma pass, and he can catch up with Rieser before and after.

But Pennant seemed to be in a particularly bad mood today, in the first half because of Quaresma received a yellow card, this time he was played by Quaresma, his anger rose, turned around, Pennant ran a few steps from behind and shoveled Quaresma.

If Quaresma was running wildly, Pennant's back-to-back tackle would mostly be useless, tripping his heel at most, but after Quaresma ran a few steps, Reese caught up, and Quaresma could only slow down and prepare to pass Reese, only to be tackled by Pennant.

Quaresma staggered forward a few steps, grabbed his head on the turf, and then rolled on the ground with his legs on his hands, howling in pain as if his legs had been broken.

The Porto fans in the stands stood up angrily and shouted at Pennant: "Bastard! "Executioner!" "Punish him!"

Porto's players saw their teammates injured and ran towards Pennant.

Liverpool's players, fearing Pennant being beaten, also ran to the scene of the incident.

Referee Michel was worried about a group fight, and while running to the scene of the incident, he asked the linesman to quickly stop the clash between the players on both sides.

Michel arrived at the scene of the incident quickly and decisively, and when he arrived at Pennant's side, he immediately showed a red card, sent Pennant off directly, and asked the linesman to escort Pennant off the field.

But Liverpool's players are not convinced by Michelle's decision, they think that Pennant is sent off without a problem, the problem is that Pennant should not eat a red card, but should eat a yellow card, two yellows to one red, referee Michel directly gave a red card, Liverpool players feel a little excessive, they also took the opportunity to put pressure on Michelle, let him relax the penalty scale, in the current scale, Liverpool is too uncomfortable.

Michel sent off Liverpool's players and didn't have a good voice with the players who came to argue with Liverpool, verbally warned captain Steven Gerrard, and almost gave a yellow card to the team's vice-president Carragher, which angered the Liverpool fans, and after the Porto fans fell silent, they stood up and shouted at the referee, scolding him for being a black whistle.

Fans and players are blaming the referee and fighting with the referee, but the coach can't cure this anger, now Liverpool has one less person, there are at least 40 minutes left in the game, Benitez and the coaching staff must think about how to play these 40 minutes, otherwise what awaits them is likely to be a very bad result.

Benitez is also a man who has experienced a lot of big scenes, and although it was a bit of a surprise to be sent off so early, he still made a rational judgment and decision quickly.

It's very difficult to win again now, for Liverpool, getting a draw is already a very good result, in order to get a draw, Liverpool with one less person can no longer adopt the tactics of attacking Porto, defensive counterattack is inevitable, but defensive counterattack has always been Liverpool's forte, although there is one less, Benitez is still very confident in holding a draw.

In addition to deciding to defend a draw with a defensive counterattack, Benitez also saw the destructiveness of Quaresma, Pennant was completely taken down by Quaresma, and wherever Quaresma moved, Liverpool's defense was in a mess, Benitez decided to let Chen Yu return to the forward position, and the striker only let Kuyt go up. In this way, Chen Yujin can provide ammunition for Kuyt, and retreat can defend Quaresma.

Benitez's decision was very correct, after the game started again, Liverpool was demoralized because of one less player, and even Liverpool fans were not in much of the mood to cheer for their players, while Porto's players were demoralized and played more easily in attack, at this time, Quaresma also tried to create chaos on Liverpool's side again, and Chen Yu limited Quaresma well on the side.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Quaresma tried to break through Reese on the side, but Chen Yu suddenly inserted from behind and stole the ball from Quaresma's feet.

Two minutes later, Quaresma held the ball again to face Chen Yu, Quaresma couldn't even fool Chen Yu with a few feints, he tried to eat with speed after changing direction, but Chen Yu was not deceived by Quaresma's feints, and then squeezed away Quaresma with his speed and body to steal the ball again, and Quaresma was angry and tried to snatch the ball back but was fouled by Chen Yu.

Quaresma's two deflated made Porto's offensive momentum blocked, and the original high morale was also low, and before Chen Yu did not perform much except for scoring, he was robbed of the limelight by Quaresma, and now seeing such a performance against Quaresma, Liverpool's players are in high spirits and full of confidence in the next game.

Quaresma is behind Chen Yu in all aspects of technology, body and speed, he did not dare to go head-to-head with Chen Yu again, trying to break through from the side with a short pass, but Liverpool resolutely defended the cross and put the inside cut, so that Quaresma, who was not good at cutting inside, had no choice but to give up the side attack and go to the middle to develop.

However, it is not easy for Porto to open the gap from Liverpool's middle, the back Mascherano covers a large area, Gerrard can also come back to assist, once from attack to defense, Chen Yu and Babel will also shrink to the middle, Porto can do a match in Liverpool's 30-meter area, but it is very difficult to penetrate into the penalty area.

Benitez saw that the middle was a bit struggling, and immediately made a substitution adjustment, Sissoko came on and replaced Babel to strengthen the protection of the penalty area, and at the same time to free Chen Yu and Gerrard, so that they have the energy to launch a counterattack.

Benitez's substitution decision not only strengthened the defensive line, but also because Chen Yu and Gerrard were able to attack, Porto's defenders did not dare to press casually, which was equivalent to reducing the pressure on the backline.

Liverpool let Chen Yu come back to play in the midfield, replaced Sissoko, and the strategy of shrinking the defense made up for his numerical disadvantage, although he could not have the upper hand, but at least ensured that his penalty area was safe, Porto had empty possession, but could not really threaten Liverpool's goal.

This situation is certainly not what Porto want, when Liverpool are in order, Porto are thinking about taking three points, and now Liverpool have been sent off, it is a godsend for them, how can they accept the result of a point.

Ferreira quickly made a substitution and brought on two players in one go, 19-Farinas for 17-Secodioi, which was a counter-change, both with wingers and then No. 11 Mariano. Gonzalez replaced 16-Merreles, a striker for a midfielder, and it was clear that Ferreira was going to do whatever it took to win Liverpool.

In the face of Porto's gambling-like style of play with four forwards, Benitez was unmoved, letting his players insist on defensive counterattacks, not attacking easily, only playing the opponent's counterattack, and never letting the opponent play his own counterattack.

Benitez's approach may have been a bit conservative, but Liverpool were unable to gain the upper hand when they were in full force before, and now that they have one man less, his conservative tactics are acceptable to the fans.

Liverpool's rats are not out of the hole, and Chen Yu, a star with super personal ability and speed, Porto is very difficult to play, although it is still a long time, but they have attacked for more than ten minutes but have never been able to really threaten Liverpool's goal, and the only few shots on goal are also long-range shots in the area of 25 meters away, this kind of long-range shot is not any threat to a world-class goalkeeper like Reina.

In the 75th minute of the game, Porto's defenders saw that Liverpool could not threaten their goal at all, and they were a little breathless, and greatly pushed the defense line to the front, originally two full-backs pressed, and then even the central defenders took turns to step forward to grab points, hoping to increase the threat of side crosses.

Porto's adventurous behaviour soon ran into trouble, and in the 77th minute of the game, Sissoko used his body to fight for the ball, Gerrard passed diagonally to Chen Yu, who dribbled the ball at high speed to break through the interception of the Porto midfielder and kill from his own half to Porto's half.

Porto's defenders were frightened, and everyone ran back desperately, but they could only block the middle, and no one on the side could keep up with Chen Yu.

After Chen Yu reached the side of the penalty area, Kuyt was the only one who flanked in the middle, he did not pass the ball, cut inside a few steps, and kicked a curling ball into the far corner of the goal before the Porto player blocked.

Chen Yu's shot was spinning and tricky, and the Porto goalkeeper showed great courage to lift the ball over the crossbar with one hand in the retreat, preventing Porto from being overtaken by Liverpool at this crucial time.

After being beaten by Chen Yu for this counterattack, Porto's backline was much more honest, and the midfielders had to devote their energy to pay attention to Chen Yu's movements, which made Porto unable to put all their strength into the attack, and finally had to shake hands with Liverpool at home.
