1034 Don't be blinded by ideals
His mind was still a little confused, and Agg, who had just been relieved that the referee had only shown him a yellow card, had a puzzled expression when he heard Skrtel's words.
Sending off a striker and paying the price of a penalty and a yellow card.
Earned?
As Bolton's players gathered around the referee to protest the leniency, Skrtel whispered to Agger: "You've taken their most dangerous striker off the pitch and we'll be a lot easier now." ”
Ag looked thoughtfully at Bolton's other striker, Elmand.
Skrtel followed his gaze, and then the corners of his mouth showed a look of contempt, and said: "Don't worry about him, he's just a softass, change his compatriot, the guy who made him a substitute, we may be a little nervous, but he, I can bet you, today he's going to disappear, he's going to regret playing, because after the game people will only criticize him for his inaction." ”
Elmand was the most expensive player to bring in by Bolton Wanderers, costing Bolton £12 million, but scored just five goals last season, just two months before he arrived in the Premier League, and since then, nothing has been achieved until today, and the goal drought has lasted almost a year to this day.
And the man Skrtel said had put Elmand on the national team bench was named Ibrahimovic, and they were both Swedes.
Ag was a lot more sober at this time, and after calming down, he gritted his teeth and said: "But we were already one goal behind, because of my stupid foul, and now we may be about to fall behind by two goals." ”
Skrtel looked at Qin Xiong and Gerrard who walked back to the penalty area, and said nonchalantly: "If I were you, I wouldn't worry about scoring goals." Our main job is to avoid the opposition from scoring. In the past. When Fernando played with Steven, we were able to score at least one goal, and our new partner, the guy known as the Dragon, was hailed as having left the opponent one goal behind as soon as he came on the pitch, so we tied the score, can we win? The opponent is Bolton. It's not the - Manchester United Chelsea, we're going to win, bro, you have to tell yourself that because we're the Reds! ”
Skrtel may be making a big fuss, but Agger understands that his team-mates and his brother at the back who have to work together to do a good job is cheering him on so he doesn't have to dwell on bad performances.
Such arrogant rhetoric worked, and Aager quickly picked himself up, as for Bolton's replacement of striker Barsamu. Ague also had the idea of making him invisible for the rest of the game.
Matthew Taylor took the penalty and smashed the ball into the Liverpool goal.
Cheers from Reebok Stadium resounded in the sky.
Bolton fans are celebrating ahead of the team's possible Reds victory, enjoying every minute and every second of the moment.
Liverpool before the restart. Qin Xiong walked up to Gerrard and said, "You go and tell Fernando that he is too confident today, and he has even overwhelmed his reason, calm down, observe the situation more and pay attention to the position of his teammates, we are a team." ”
Gerald nodded, not feeling that there was anything wrong with Qin Xiong's words.
It has been almost thirty minutes without scoring, not because Liverpool's attack has not been able to create chances, but because everyone is condoning Torres.
Since the start of the new Premier League season, Torres has scored in three consecutive games and firmly occupies the top spot in the scorer charts, which makes him seem to be more hungry for goals.
He had a lot of chances in the game, but they all ended up squandering when he couldn't get up properly.
He's a striker, a striker, and without him Liverpool's attack will drop sharply, so he has the power to squander, and few people will blame him, because there are so many people who love him, and he can't be replaced.
But Qin Xiong won't, as he has cooperated with first-class strikers and even world-class strikers since his debut, he hopes that his teammates can be more mature.
Torres himself said before the new season: I hope that after this season, people will be able to talk about themselves like Cristiano Ronaldo.
But if he is like this, sorry, he can't reach the heights of Cristiano Ronaldo.
This is Qin Xiong's point of view, even if he has reached world-class heights.
But to step into the ranks of superstars, it's not just about hard work.
Ideals can sometimes blind people's eyes.
Gerrard spoke with Torres before kick-off, Torres glanced at Qin Xiong, who looked at him solemnly, and finally, Torres gave Qin Xiong a thumbs up.
Qin Xiong didn't know what that meant, but thinking of Torres, who was usually humble and gentle, he shouldn't make a move that was overt and ironic.
It's best if he can understand.
Bolton's defensive focus is focused on Torres, which is actually a good phenomenon, which means that Qin Xiong can have more room to move, even if he has created a lot of opportunities for Torres before, but since the fatal blow is Torres is initiating, Bolton is naturally to mark the opponent who is the most threatening and most likely to break through their goal.
In the 37th minute of the game, Alonso's through ball from midfield handed the ball to Torres in front of the penalty area, who did not insist on going his own way this time, and quickly passed the ball back to Gerrard, who was ambushed behind.
Bolton, meanwhile, Bolton's focus on defending in the middle has led to a lack of protection for the ribs of the box.
Steven Gerrard picks up a cross on the left side of the penalty area.
Qin Xiongfeng cut into the penalty area, kicked the ball back while stopping the ball, wiped Gary Cahill who rushed back to the defense, and then volleyed the goal into the near corner of the goal from a small angle!
Goalkeeper Jascolenen went to block the near corner, but the ball still flew into the net like lightning from the inside of the post.
The horn of Liverpool's counteroffensive sounded.
Davis's fate hit Bolton Wanderers too hard!
The sordid England striker can create chaos in Liverpool's defence, and finding opportunities in the chaos is what Bolton does best.
However, Elmande, who is very similar to Ibrahimovic, and Bassamu who came on as a substitute, played in a regular manner, and playing honestly could not cause confusion in Liverpool's defence, let alone make waves.
Bolton's attack was successfully defended by Liverpool after a series of wide crosses, and then Liverpool's attack swept away in waves.
In the 43rd minute of the game, Liverpool launched an attack from the right side, Glen Johnson assisted to the front, and after cooperating with Kuyt, he went down to the bottom and passed the ball back to the top of the penalty area, Gerrard met the ball and shot angrily, the football was saved by Jascolainen, but the football still bounced in the penalty area.
Torres was brought to the ground by Gary Cahill, and when Torres was about to raise his hand to complain about the foul in the opponent's penalty area, the football was slammed into Bolton's goal by Qin Xiong!
The score, equalized! (To be continued.) )
