When the first half ended with Liverpool leading Arsenal 3-0, Arsene Wenger may still be making an impassioned speech in the dressing room, or he may be in full swing to make a comeback plan for the second half.

But after the two sides changed sides in the second half, he suddenly found that Liverpool had made a substitution!

Qin Xiong was replaced!

The fans were shocked!

"Liverpool actually chose to make a substitution at halftime, and it was Qin Xiong who scored a hat trick in the first half!

It's hard to imagine, is there something unknowable going on in the dressing room?

However, seeing Qin Xiong sitting on the bench was very relaxed, and there was no negative emotion written on his face.

What's going on?

Wait, Gerrard was replaced too!

What the hell is Koman doing! ”

It was Tiott and Lucas who were substituted!

Liverpool's formation in the second half was unchanged, it was still 451.

But the striker at the top became Kuyt.

Cabaye moved to the midfield position, and the back line lined up with three defensive midfielders.

Tiot, Mascherano, Lucas.

Alonso sits in central midfield, and Cabaye plays back and forth to control the midfield.

Arsene Wenger was a little confused.

He turned his head to look at Koeman, who was standing on the sidelines parallel to him.

What does that mean?

Looking down on Arsenal?

Or do you arrogantly think that you have a chance to win?

Koeman, on the other hand, stood calmly on the sidelines and watched the situation inside the pitch.

He really didn't look down on Arsenal or think that the big picture was decided.

The pressure on Liverpool is not in this single game, but in the combined pressure of entering the second half of the season.

He has to think about the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.

That game is more important than this league!

No doubt.

Because of this, he wants to retain his strength, replace Qin Xiong and Gerrard with a three-goal lead, and let the two attack the team in the second leg of the Champions League 1/8 final in a few days.

Liverpool's steel midfielder went all out to stop Arsenal's attack, and then Cabaye and Alonso fed Kuyt.

Van Persie, who has been on the rise of late, is particularly helpless up front, surrounded by Liverpool players, and whether he drops back or not, the situation is much the same.

He can't drop back into midfield, can he?

Arsenal were much more fluid in the second half, but Liverpool's defence was still difficult to break.

It's hard to even be in danger on the scene.

On the contrary, Arsenal pressed after 70 minutes of the second half due to anxiety, creating a lot of space for Liverpool to counterattack.

Unfortunately, Kuyt's form is not what it was then, and today he missed two great chances, and Cabaye also had a brilliant long-range shot from outside the box beautifully saved by Szczesny.

When the full-time whistle blew, Arsene Wenger looked at the score on the big screen and felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

3:0！

Liverpool beat Arsenal at home seemingly without much effort.

Liverpool really can't take Arsenal too seriously, and maybe some pragmatic teams in the lower middle are more dangerous than Arsenal, because Liverpool have dropped the most points on the middle and lower teams this season!

Commenting on the scoreline, Koeman said: "We didn't give it our all, but we were 100 per cent into the game, our seriousness and hard work paid off, and it was a good result to be able to win, which will motivate us to keep going and be more confident in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals to come." ”

Arsene Wenger was speechless after the game, not knowing how to explain the situation.

The more opponents Arsenal wants to beat, the more completely Arsenal loses!

Because Arsenal's defense is so bad, the opponent can catch Arsenal off guard as long as they play fast attacks and counter-attacks.

The hardest hit was the defeat to Arsenal's leading striker Robin van Persie.

In his opinion, Arsenal's competitiveness in England seems to have slipped to unbearable levels.

In the face of Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal seems to have become helpless.

This does not seem to be directly related to the individual differences of the players, but from the comprehensive technical and tactical encounters, and on-the-spot decision-making.

After Liverpool beat Arsenal, Liverpool continue to lead the Premier League table.

After 27 rounds.

Liverpool 64 points.

Manchester City 63 points.

Manchester United 60 points.

Tottenham 53 points.

Chelsea 46 points.

Arsenal 46 points.

Newcastle United 43 points

Liverpool's form has picked up significantly ahead of AC Milan's visit to Anfield through a series of changes following the defeat to San Siro in mid-February.

The Reds fans spontaneously cheered for the Champions League 1/8 finals before the Champions League 1/8 final, and they had to unify their steps to create a hellish home atmosphere at Anfield during the game!

On the evening of 8 March, Anfield was lit up and Reds fans filled the stadium with spectacular singing before the game.

The song "You Never Walk Alone" echoed around the court.

When Liverpool and AC Milan were in the tunnel of the players, the Liverpool players could clearly hear the singing in the stadium, which made their inner excitement quickly mobilized.

In the players' tunnel, AC Milan's number one striker Ibrahimovic glanced at Qin Xiong, who was full of fighting spirit, and when he and Qin Xiong stepped on different fields from Ajax, the two of them were their own masters.

Ibrahimovic has only won once, in the first leg of the last leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Today, if AC Milan were to knock out Liverpool at Anfield, the sensation they created would shock the entire European football world!

Liverpool are the European champions for the second year in a row!

Under the leadership of the referee team, the players of the two teams walked into the stadium together.

The Anfield stadium turned into a boiling hustle and bustle.

The Reds fans cheered wildly from the stands, holding banners and shouting loudly, and the fans in the nearby stands kept shouting "I'm going to blow you up today" at the AC Milan players!

They are putting pressure on AC Milan and motivating the Reds to Liverpool!

The kick-off ceremony took place and the Champions League theme song sounded in the stadium.

The camera pans over every player on the pitch.

For AC Milan, today may be able to play the role of the monarch to create a miracle, but for Liverpool, today is a crucial battle to defend the throne!

Whether we can continue the glory of the past two years in the European arena depends on whether we can break through AC Milan today and suppress the "rebellion" of the Rossoneri!

Qin Xiong kept his eyes closed during the kick-off ceremony, as if in deep thought.

As a superstar who has broken many records, including many of his own, there are always many records that will still be in front of him.

It doesn't matter, Qin Xiong has the ambition to break them one by one!

If he can win the Champions League this year, he will equal the number of Champions League titles won by Gento!

At the end of the Champions League theme song, he opened his eyes, and his fierce eyes were full of ambition and fighting spirit! (To be continued.) )
