"The two teams fought fiercely at the beginning, only a few minutes, the football has changed hands I don't know how many times, not as many media thought before the game, Liverpool fought very hard at Anfield Stadium, Chelsea did not take advantage of a little advantage!"

"In terms of strength, Inter Milan is obviously better than Liverpool, but I didn't see it in the game, Liverpool played very tough......"

The commentator is commenting on the first 10 minutes of the game to the fans in front of the television.

The game only lasted ten minutes, but many fans had already entered the state, the game on the field was very intense, the commentator talked about this, they found that it was only ten minutes, the game had just begun, but the game itself was really intense, so fierce that many people forgot the time.

Unfortunately, neither team has had many good chances so far.

On the pitch, both teams are still fighting, neither has the upper hand, and when it comes to advantages, Liverpool still have some small advantages, such as their possession rate is five percentage points higher than Chelsea, and another example is that they have one shot on goal and Chelsea have none.

This situation is surprising.

Before the game, many people analyzed the lineup and state of the two teams, and they all thought that Chelsea would have an active advantage, they would control the home field, Liverpool would definitely play a little passive, not the strength or anything, the style of play of the two teams is almost the same, in terms of lineup and strength, Chelsea's technology and cooperation can play better, Liverpool has no advantage in comparison, and comprehensive suppression is also possible.

But until now, it was Liverpool who had some upper hand.

It's weird.

'Chelsea didn't have any form today,' the London commentator began to excuse Chelsea, but it seemed that he still had a lot of confidence in Chelsea, "The game has only just started, there is still a lot ......of time, as long as Chelsea can find their form." Then the game will go into Chelsea time. ”

It's a pity that another ten minutes have passed, and the game is still like that, and even Liverpool has a greater advantage.

From the very beginning of the game, Zhang Tiehan hovered in the midfield, a little bit forward to Gerrard, sometimes in order to defend. In order to grab the ball, he will take the initiative to retreat some, or even retreat to the position of the defender, so he is almost running all over the field, this kind of running is generally considered useless, but many people find that as long as the football is located, Zhang Tiehan will appear nearby.

"Liverpool's No. 13 Zhang seems to be crazy today......"

After seeing Zhang Tiehan cut off Lampard's ball with one kick, the London commentator was a little helpless. 'It's the third time we've cut off three goals from Frank Lampard in 20 minutes.'

And that's just on the defensive.

Zhang Tiehan's contribution to the attack is still very large, he and Gerrard continue to cooperate, running before and after the middle line, making it difficult for Chelsea to defend him effectively, and the running in the front court has also made Chelsea's formation a little messed up, and some players don't know whether to follow Zhang Tiehan or leave.

Carvalho is one of them.

Ricardo Carvalho follows Mourinho's success in Porto. He went on to become the most sought-after defender in the summer of 2004. He turned down Real Madrid's call to join Chelsea for £19.85 million. He quickly adapted to the highly confrontational Premier League and proved Mourinho's vision with the quality of a world-class defender.

Carvalho, unlike many other stars, started out at a low-level club and quickly established himself in Porto when he moved to the giants Porto and spent two seasons on loan. Jose Mourinho's arrival was a real change in him. Under the guidance of veteran Jorge Costa, Carvalho's positioning and defensive awareness have been perfected, and he has an excellent judgment of the landing point of high-altitude balls, and he is not lagging behind in the Premier League's fierce center forward.

Taking over the flag from Couto in the national team, Carvalho has been on a par with super-first-class centre-backs such as Nesta and Ferdinand.

In 2004 they won the Champions Cup in Porto. Carvalho was named Defender of the Year by UEFA.

Last season, Carvalho's combination with John Terry made the Chelsea defence solid, filling the void left by Desailly's departure and forcing Gallas to full-back.

Now he has to defend Zhang Tiehan.

This is the task given to him by Mourinho, not alone, Terry will also assist in defense, defending a tall center, Carvalho still has a lot of experience, he knows that Zhang Tiehan is not so easy to defend, but he is ready to follow Zhang Tiehan all over the field.

When he did, he quickly gave up.

At the beginning of this game, Zhang Tiehan was not in the front line at all, he had been running near the middle line, so Carvalho in the front position could not keep up at all, and when Zhang Tiehan arrived in the front court, it was not easy for Carvalho to defend, because Zhang Tiehan's running was still very much, and many times he kept up, and Zhang Tiehan had even made a pass and catch with his teammates.

With such a fast and frequent run, there is no way to fully defend it, and even Carvalho can't just stop Zhang Tiehan and his teammates from passing and receiving the ball - his explosiveness can't catch up with Zhang Tiehan, and he can't keep up with it all the time.

"Is this really Zhang?"

Carvalho was a little confused, and now he felt terrible defending, and the guy he was defending seemed to be like the big guy in the video who always ran poorly in the game.

Carvalho even had the feeling that he was defending Ronaldinho.

He clearly remembers the feeling when he played against Barcelona, the Brazilian couldn't prevent it at all, even if he was one step ahead of the main position, but the opponent broke out and ran two steps ahead, and he didn't pay attention, and the opponent could even throw himself off directly after receiving the ball. That feeling was terrible.

Now he realized it again.

"Zhang, catch the ball! Oh...... He crashed into Carvalho......"

After Zhang Tiehan received the ball in the front court, in the face of Carvalho's defense, he directly rushed forward with the ball, and Carvalho couldn't stop it if he wanted to, which was a reasonable collision.

When Zhang Tiehan rushed over, Carvalho got up from the grass, with a wry smile on his face, and he was sure of one thing in his heart - this is different from defending Ronaldinho, who generally uses technique to get past himself, while this guy is better at using his body, more savage, and more rough.

But he had no choice but to keep up.

Zhang Tiehan shook off Carvalho, but Chelsea's backfield formation was solid. He could only pass the ball back to Gerrard, and he ran to the right, and after Gerrard took the ball and Alonso made a combination, he finally found Zhang Tiehan's point, and Zhang Tiehan caught a glimpse of Garcia, who was receiving him not far to his left.

He was going to pass the ball straight to Garcia and run towards the penalty area himself. It's much easier than getting into the box with the ball on your own.????

So he raised his right foot and kicked the ball over, while also looking at Garcia.

Carvalho rushed up from behind, and wanted to break the ball, but he didn't get to Zhang Tiehan before he passed the ball again, and his head was a little cloudy - didn't the coach say that this guy rarely passes the ball? Why is it that in the game, he keeps passing the ball and passing the ball, so he still has to defend?

Carvalho was still in a daze, and Zhang Tiehan had already shaken him off and ran towards the penalty area.

But Garcia was in trouble. He was entangled by Ferreira on the opponent's side, so he could only pass the ball back to Gerrard, who wanted to hang the ball into the penalty area after Gerrard took the ball, and then he saw that Zhang Tiehan had run out of the penalty area, and he hesitated and passed the ball over.

These passes came very quickly, and it also showed the tacit understanding of Liverpool's attacking coordination, all Chelsea fans watched with fear, and Liverpool fans cheered one after another.

Wait for Zhang Tiehan to get the ball again. Carvalho was thrown away by him, and there was no one around him to defend him.

He turned his head to look at the goal. He was about to complete a long-range shot, but he saw Terry following him. Zhang Tiehan hesitated, and wanted to shake off Terry and shoot again, but this hesitation went wrong, Terry was quite experienced in defense, and he rushed over and directly destroyed the ball out of the sideline.

"Whew......" Many Chelsea fans let out a long exhale. Liverpool's attack is finally over.

Liverpool fans also feel regretful.

"It's a pity, Zhang was a little hesitant in the face of Terry."

"He should have been more decisive."

'But it's understandable that John Terry is the backbone of the England backline against such a world-class defender. Zhang's mistake is understandable...... "The English media like to praise their country's players.

Zhang Tiehan was also annoyed by the attack.

He was thinking about getting past Terry just now, but he didn't expect Terry to be so decisive, he knew the impact of this positional transformation, just now he was thinking about whether he would dribble or pass, if he didn't have to think about it before, he would go on his own, but now he thinks more.

"Be decisive and don't rely too much on passing." Zhang Tiehan remembered this lesson.

……

Chelsea fans were expecting John Terry's break to stop Liverpool's attack and give the team back the initiative, but in reality, the shape of the game didn't change with a single break.

Liverpool still have the initiative on the pitch.

When Steven Gerrard attacked again, Liverpool played another series of combinations in the middle, and finally the football was at the feet of Zhang Tiehan again.

Carvalho caught up.

Zhang Tiehan was dribbling forward, he seemed to be intending to go forward, Carvalho thought so, but he didn't expect that at the moment when the two clashed, Zhang Tiehan passed the ball, and he gave the ball to the side - it was Alonso!

The Spaniard ran out of gear.

This time it was Carvalho's turn to hesitate, he didn't know whether to give up Zhang Tiehan to make up for Alonso, or keep following Zhang Tiehan and give up defending Alonso.

Just when he hesitated, Zhang Tiehan had already bypassed him and rushed forward.

At the same time, Alonso's ball was passed back again.

"Two over one! Pretty! The Anfield commentator couldn't help but be surprised, he really didn't expect that under such a dense defense in front of the penalty area, Zhang Tiehan and Alonso could complete the passing and receiving cooperation so calmly.

Especially Zhang Tiehan!

Not to mention the commentator, many people on the scene didn't expect it, after all, Zhang Tiehan gave the impression of a center forward with rough skills but an unusually strong body, not the kind of technical player who brushed flowers at his feet, but Zhang Tiehan did it, he and Alonso cooperated very tacitly, and the passing of only a few meters was quite accurate, making it difficult for Chelsea players to defend.

Zhang Tiehan burst into the penalty area with the ball!

The Chelsea players tried their best to defend, but Zhang Tiehan would not let go of this opportunity lightly, he only took a step towards the penalty area, and picked up his right foot to shoot vigorously!

It's a shot he has to do a lot of times every day in training.

No suspense!

The ball flew up on the grass and flew into the goal like a cannonball.

Goalkeeper Petr Cech was on the defensive, but his body couldn't react, and even when the ball flew in from the left, Cech didn't have time to make any moves, the only thing he could do was shrug his shoulders at his team-mates.

That means, "I can't help it." ”

……

“Gooooooooooooooooal！！！！！！”

The moment the football flew into the goal, the Anfield stadium immediately boiled, and the on-site commentator shouted excitedly in the highest tone he could make, "The ball is in!" The ball is in! Sheet! Sheet! It was a wonderful attack! ”

'We can't tell how many times Liverpool have combined before, the Chelsea defenders can only watch Zhang burst into the box and can do nothing, and in the face of Zhang's shot from more than ten yards, Cech may have to pray to God...... It's just that God is not on his side, or maybe even God can't do anything about Zhang's shot. ”

"One to zero! Zhang's goal gives Liverpool the lead! ”

After the thrill of the goal, the Anfield commentator quipped, "Mourinho wants to win, maybe he should pray that Zhang will lose his head today, I have a hunch that Zhang will score more than one goal" (to be continued............
