Benitez was satisfied with the first half, the team didn't make any mistakes, and the game against Manchester United was evenly matched, but the home game was also a failure without scoring, Benitez did not express any satisfaction, he just summed up the first half of the game.

There are still a lot of problems.

For example, in attack, the two wings really rarely provide support to the middle, and the team's wide flanks have always been a problem, but Benitez is not happy with the lack of action on the wings, so he criticised this, "You should increase the number of crosses, not just defend", he said.

The two wing-backs who started the game, Garcia and Reese, were also a little depressed at the mention of this, no one received criticism, just the two of them were criticized, 'you can't just defend', doesn't that mean that they are completely useless in attack?

"I want to pass the ball to Zhang more!" Then Benitez talked about the attack, "Zhang, your position should be further forward, and then forward!" It's up to someone else at halftime! ”

"Yes, sir." Zhang Tiehan responded.

He was going to do the same in the second half, it was hard to get a chance to win the ball in midfield, and he liked to fight hard with the Manchester United defenders - he was ready to say that Lao Tzu was already hungry, come on, Manchester United little girls!

He stood in the crowd and looked in good spirits!

Garcia and Reese were not in a good mood and neither liked to be criticized, so they remembered Benitez's words and decided to pass the ball forward in the second half - don't you think you should pass more balls to Zhang Tiehan? Then we'll keep passing and see if he can withstand the pressure and score the ball!

The two of them are a little bit of a rivalry.

Although Zhang Tiehan is a special one for Manchester United - his goals and individual ability are really a bit excessive, putting a lot of pressure on others, players in the same position don't even have the heart to compete, because they know that they can't compete with others. Including Garcia and Reese, they also think that Zhang Tiehan is a special guy on the field, he is always taken care of, and he can always score goals.

But even so, they are also professional players and Liverpool's starters!

Can't be so far behind!

The two of them have this mentality. You can imagine what the situation will be in the second half, the two of them will almost cross when they get the ball, Liverpool is not very good on the side, and the support on the side has increased greatly, but they are all long passes, but the two are not Beckham-type players, and the quality of the cross is not required.

Garcia and Reese also knew this, but now they were not angry in their hearts, and they wanted to vent their anger when they had a breath.

Good. You gave us a cross, we did it, what else?

That's what they think.

So the two pursued quantity more than quality, but I have to say that Zhang Tiehan's chances have increased a lot, before he could wait for a ball for a long time, and now football can always fly from the air. Although the quality was not very good, he didn't care at all at first. He also thought that Manchester United was too close to his defense, who knew that Garcia and Reese, the technical level was like this.

There are many of them, and there are good passes among them, or Zhang Tiehan grabbed a good position and hit the ball, but the ball landed a little crookedly. As a result, when Zhang Tiehan rushed over and jumped up with a header, it was impossible to score at all, but he didn't complain about anything, but gave a thumbs up to Reese, who passed the ball.

He's thanking Reeser for his crosses again and again!

It really kind of made him feel like he was at the heart of the absolute attack at Roma.

Reese was a little dazed. He knows his pass, if Gerrard and others go to catch this kind of ball, let alone a thumbs-up, it is estimated that he will yell when he turns around, "pass on time", Zhang Tiehan actually praised him...... Aren't they playing on the same planet?

But Reese knows what to do, since he said yes, he will keep passing the ball, see if this special guy can really score a goal, and then he will have an assist!

Assists...... That's great!

Reese thought.

A player like him has always been between the team's main force and the substitute, sometimes he can start when he has a good opportunity, and sometimes he will be replaced by Finnan, Cendon and others Although the latter two are not pure right midfielders at all, Reese knows that he can't attack long passes or something, and rarely he can have an assist opportunity, let alone score a goal or something, which is what Reese never wants to participate in the game.

In turn, Garcia on the other side also saw Zhang Tiehan's thumb, he didn't understand it at all, the pass just now was really ...... To explain, ordinary people can't put the ball in even if no one defends, and such a ball is actually praised?

He was a little confused.

But he also has a little concept in his heart - it seems that Zhang Tiehan likes to pass the ball over as long as he is within his range, no need to be too demanding, when he can score, he will naturally have the credit of passing, and it is not his reason to not be able to score - it is Zhang who failed to score!

Thinking about it this way, Garcia also knew what to do.

Next, Liverpool's two wings simply dominated the team's attack, Garcia and Reese were no longer stingy with passes, but the quality of these passes was getting worse and worse, the only advantage was that the football would rush to Zhang Tiehan's side, some were low balls, some were high balls, and there were passes to the waist......

In the face of these many opportunities, Zhang Tiehan immediately became much more energetic.

It's a challenge!

Until now, he can also see that Garcia and Reese's passes are really not good, but the opportunities have indeed changed, and the quantity can sometimes make up for the quality, no matter how one or two passes are good in ten balls, he has more opportunities, and the more opportunities he has on the table, this is indeed a challenge, he is like training headers, his training purpose is how to put the not very good headers in, training, opportunities again and again!

Zhang Tiehan has become the absolute focus of the audience!

"Zhang! He squeezed Ferdinand's header away! ”

"Ah, it's a pity it's off!"

"It's Zhang again! He rushed into the penalty area! ”

"Garcia's kick might have been more accurate......"

"Zhang! He was squeezed in the middle by Rio Ferdinand and O'Shea, but he still managed to grab the ball, but there was little chance in that position. ”

"Zhang! Sheet! It's Zhang again! ”

"Zhang is very powerful today, it seems that he will not be willing to give up if he does not score!"

Sheet! It's all Zhang!

There are almost no other players' names left in the mouths of the various commentators, and Zhang Tiehan is mentioned again and again, causing countless problems for the United defence. In Liverpool's attack, he won the ball again and again, looked for opportunities again and again, and the entire vicinity of Manchester United's penalty area was almost his territory.

At this point, there were no more 'boos' from Manchester United fans.

They didn't have that mind anymore, watching Zhang Tiehan hit his own goal again and again. It was so scary, they were very worried that the goal would be blown away in the blink of an eye, and their hearts were in their throats.

Liverpool fans are shouting Zhang Tiehan's name, they are quite excited to see Zhang Tiehan's crazy expression, and they hope that cheering will make Zhang Tiehan actually score a goal.

Zhang Tiehan didn't care so much, in his eyes, there was no Riser and Garcia who passed the ball, and there were not even other teammates, let alone fans or anything, in his eyes. Apart from the football that has been flying over, there are only a few defensive players for Manchester United, especially Rio Ferdinand and O'Shea.

The combination of the two, playing against Manchester United in Rome, he has already learned it.

Ferdinand is almost 1.9 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms, making him an absolute heavyweight opponent, and O'Shea is also huge. And more experienced.

The defense of these two has a big impact on him.

Especially Ferdinand, he is the main force in the confrontation with Zhang Tiehan. He constantly harassed Zhang Tiehan, all kinds of body collisions and small movements were also used non-stop, the problem was that while fighting with Ferdinand, Zhang Tiehan also had to pay attention to O'Shea, O'Shea was too experienced, as long as there was a little opportunity. He will affect Zhang Tiehan.

Two of the world's top central defenders, this kind of defensive intensity is not something that ordinary people can handle.

These two top central defenders defended Zhang Tiehan too tightly, in fact, their goal in this game was to defend Zhang Tiehan, whether it was the coach's arrangement or their own will. That's what they both thought and did.

Last season, Roma and Manchester United met in the Champions League, Zhang Tiehan scored three goals in two games, and the defenders of Zhang Tiehan were Ferdinand and O'Shea, Zhang Tiehan's three goals proved that the defense of the two was a failure, and after the game, Ferguson also angrily reprimanded the two, although they are both veterans, but in the eyes of the old Jazz, they are just immature young people.

After the two became famous, they were praised for many years and rarely reprimanded, so they remembered how they felt at the time.

Now that they met Zhang Tiehan in the game, they naturally gave their best to defend.

……

Zhang Tiehan failed again and again.

There are passing reasons and his own reasons, but the biggest reason is Rio Ferdinand and O'Shea's defense, both of whom are too entangled, but he is learning from his failures.

Zhang Tiehan has already figured out the defensive mode of the two, that is, Ferdinand and him are fighting hard head-on, and O'Shea is on the side.

Even if he wins against Rio Ferdinand in the confrontation, he still has to face O'Shea, as long as there is one person who affects him, he will not want to shoot calmly, so if he wants to score, he must get rid of these two, otherwise it will depend on luck.

Zhang Tiehan never pinned his hopes on luck!

When he found out again and again that without a good pass, it was really difficult for him to score, he shouted at his teammates, "Pass the ball to the middle", he pointed to the middle of the penalty area, where there was no one, it was an offside position at all, but Zhang Tiehan didn't care so much, he just shouted.

The rest of Liverpool heard it, so they started passing the ball towards the middle of the box, and they knew what Zhang Tiehan was going to do, which was to use his speed and explosiveness to counter offside.

Manchester United knows it, too.

So Ferdinand and Zhang Tiehan's 'top cow' is more frequent, as long as Liverpool has a passing posture, the two immediately start a physical confrontation, Ferdinand tried his best not to let Zhang Tiehan pass, O'Shea is to prevent Zhang Tiehan from suddenly starting when passing.

But there's a big difference between having the ball and not having the ball.

In the case of no ball, if you want to resist Zhang Tiehan and not let him pass, that is a difficult challenge, although Ferdinand is very strong, but there is still a gap with Zhang Tiehan, after this time Riser got up and passed, Zhang Tiehan suddenly broke out and squeezed Ferdinand forward, Ferdinand did not react, and was squeezed to the ground without standing firm.

This kind of ball is usually an offensive foul, but now it's a derby!

England's first derby!

After more than an hour of fighting, Zhang Tiehan has already grasped the referee's penalty scale, and this kind of direct 'top cow' referee simply turned a blind eye.

Sure enough, the referee didn't react.

Zhang Tiehan rushed forward easily, breaking out at the fastest speed, O'Shea wanted to defend but couldn't keep up at all, but when Zhang Tiehan ran into the penalty area, there was no one around him at all, but the football also fell from the sky, right in front of him.

Zhang Tiehan gritted his teeth and stepped forward fiercely.

One step, two steps, three steps.

He stretched his foot with all his might, and finally put his foot under before the ball fell, the football hit the surface of his foot, bounced forward, Zhang Tiehan didn't have a chance to exert his strength, just thinking about changing the direction of the ball.

The ball rushes towards the goal.

The speed of the ball is not fast, but because it smashed on Zhang Tiehan's feet, the angle is still very tricky, Van der Sar originally thought that Zhang Tiehan would not be able to chase the ball, he didn't even attack, he didn't even think that Zhang Tiehan could chase the ball, and in a rather surprised expression, he watched the football fly over the goal line from the right side.
