With the Champions League quarter-finals just around the corner, fans around the world are shifting their attention from their home league to the Champions League.

In a certain sense, the Champions League is even more important than the league, not only because winning the Champions League is equivalent to stepping on the top of Europe, but also because the Champions League represents a huge benefit.

As long as they can qualify for the Champions League group stage, each team will have an appearance fee of 4o million euros per game in the group stage, so that even in the most extreme case, if they do not win a game and go home after six group games, the team can earn a total of o million euros. o

But that's not all. As the world's highest-level club competition, teams competing in the Champions Cup receive additional income for each draw or win. The prize money for each draw is €3o million, while each win is UU million. In other words, as long as you participate in the group stage, you can earn UUO million euros with six consecutive wins.

But that's not all, because in addition to the team's performance bonuses, UEFA will also give a portion of the broadcast revenue and ticket revenue to the team, and the more games played, the more attractive the team will be, the more points will be achieved, and if you can make it all the way to the Champions League final and win the title, 100 million euros is not much.

No one likes to do famous and beneficial things, especially giants like Barcelona, Manchester United, Bayern, and Inter Milan, money may not be what they value most, but the huge honor of the Champions League is absolutely irresistible to them.

Liverpool is also a special one among the giants, Liverpool does not lack Champions League honors, five Champions League titles make them second only to Real Madrid Milan and proud, Liverpool lacks the league championship, they have not won a league championship since the establishment of the United Kingdom, which is also a shame for the giants.

Even if Liverpool is so hungry for the league title, the Liverpudlians have not put the league above the Champions League, as far as the Champions League quarter-final with Barcelona is concerned, there is a league game between the two Champions League games, but Liverpool has played every game with all the main players and has not neglected any game.

With a 1-1 away win over Barcelona in the first leg, Liverpool had the absolute upper hand in this strong conversation, but Liverpool didn't dare to be careless, and if the boiled duck was allowed to fly, Liverpool would make a big joke.

This game is similar to playing Manchester United in the league, except that the offensive and defensive roles are reversed, playing Manchester United in the league, Liverpool must win, and now, Liverpool can keep a draw, and even a small loss is acceptable, which is much more tactical flexibility for Benitez.

Of course, Benitez will not fail to absorb the lessons of Manchester United and their game丨 Manchester United almost reached their goal in that game, but Chen Yu and luck defeated Manchester United together, and now Barcelona has more talents in the camp than Liverpool, Benitez will certainly not put on a stubborn face, pursuing a draw, defensive counterattack is still Benitez's best choice, only counterattack sharpness can reduce the pressure on the backline, and finally achieve the goal of promotion.

The game was played at 8:45 p.m. on March U, and the game was scheduled at such a point in time in order to allow more fans to watch the game live, but for a strong dialogue between Liverpool and Barcelona, it is no longer a question of what time period to play, even during working hours, Anfield Stadium will definitely be full, Liverpool playing Barcelona is not a good show that can be staged every season, for fans, this is a luxurious feast, and now, the feast has begun, All eyes are on Anfield and waiting to see who will have the last laugh in UU minutes.

“…… Welcome to Anfield, where the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals is on the horizon, where Liverpool beat away from home in the first leg and Liverpool can reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League without conceding by more than two goals in the second leg. Although it is not a surprise to reach the quarter-finals with Liverpool's quality, don't forget who their opponents are, if Barcelona do not reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League, it will be an upset. The game hasn't started yet, let's take a look at the other games that are going on at the same time, Inter Milan and Valencia, Valencia's home stadium, in the first leg, Valencia unexpectedly drew away from the Serie A leaders, and now back at home, the Bats can send Inter home with just an OO. Chelsea Porto, the battle between Mourinho and his old club, obviously away 1 Mourinho is to give the old club a face, with Chelsea's defensive ability, the battle of Stamford Bridge passive Porto has no chance. Fiorentina and Lyon, Chen Yu's old club was forced to draw by Lyon OO at home, which is certainly not a good result, but fortunately, Fiorentina did not give Lyon an away goal, so Fiorentina still has the ability to fight at Lyon's home field...... Oh, the game is about to start, let's take a look at the lineups for this game...... Liverpool): Renafinnan, Carragher, Agger, Abeloa Gerrard, Sissoko, Alonso, Rieser Chenyu, Kuyt; Barcelona -: Valdesturam, Marcos, Puyol, Oleg Xavi, Iniesta, De Co Messi, Eto'o, Ronaldinho ......"

The on-site commentators of Italian TV are very skilled, and they don't even need to look at the computer when they casually talk about the scores of each game, and they don't look at the watch when they introduce the lineups of the two sides, and they beat most of the well-known commentators in China.

However, the on-site commentator He Shiren sent by CCTV Sports Channel is obviously not one of these large, as the top brand of CCTV Sports Channel, He Shishi not only can chant poetry, but his business ability is also very proficient, and it is by no means comparable to the commentator who can only read according to the script.

Looking at the lineups of both sides, He Shishi joked: "Before the game, Barcelona people have been waiting for many years in Rijkaard.4 But this game is still the same as Benitez predicted, 34 did not appear, Barcelona is still their most familiar 43 and teammates and coaches have contradictions Eto'o finally came to the field, Rijkaard still attaches great importance to this game, he would rather lose face in front of Benitez than dare to risk using a very risky 343 formation...... Liverpool's manager Benitez is very superstitious, in the last game Abelloa said that he could prevent Xiao Luo, he gave Abelloa a chance, Abelloa is also very good, this game Abelloa is on the field again, can he still limit Xiao Luo today? It's only three things, even if it's a fat Xiao Luo, I'm afraid it won't explode...... Chen Yu is naturally thunderous, but his partner is not Bellamy and Crouch, but Kuyt, what does this mean? It should be to use Kuyt's strong body to make a ball for Chen Yu, in fact, since Liverpool is sure to defend, it is better to go to Chen Yu alone and play 451. ”

Benitez standing on the sidelines was not complacent because he guessed correctly, his expression became more heavy, he is too familiar with Barcelona, this is a team that regards art and offense as life, if they can resist not taking risks under the disadvantage of the round, this is what Benitez did not expect, he felt that the Barcelona team in front of him seemed to have become a little strange, fortunately, the advantage of away from home is too great, Benitez can still sit still.

Seeing Liverpool's lineup, Barcelona coach Rijkaard was not in a good mood, he originally thought that Liverpool would defend the half to play his own counterattack, but now it seems that Liverpool does not intend to defend to the death, the back trio, except for Sissoko has no attacking power, Alonso and Gerrard are both good players who have both offense and defense, if there are holes in the Barcelona backline, these two people are people who can attack in an instant.

For the first time in three months, Rijkaard discharged the forward trident Messi, Eto'o and Ronaldo, who was once hailed by the Spanish media as the world's strongest attacking trio will face the unbeaten Liverpool backline of 31 games at home.

In the VIP stands, Liverpool's two bosses, Gillette and Hicks, came to the scene, after a crazy 16-game winning streak, the two bosses were a little fascinated by the atmosphere of Liverpool, listening to the song "You Will Never Walk Alone", watching Chen Yu perform, enjoying the joy of victory, which is simply happier than making money.

Compared with Liverpool's two owners, Barcelona's president Rabulta is obviously depressed, after shaking hands with the two Yankees, Labulta sat on the sand and stayed, in fact, Labulta has been thinking, if this game is lost, Barcelona is eliminated, and Rijkaard can continue to coach next season, if Rijkaard is fired, who else can replace Rijkaard?

The game did not start, and at the moment the fans of both sides in the stands were also talking.

"Barcelona is a bit conservative, but with Barcelona's attacking power, even if it is conservative, it is better than Liverpool, at the Camp Nou, if it wasn't for Valdés' mistake, Barcelona should have won 41, not lost"

"There is still hope for Barcelona in this game, although no team other than Ajax has been able to reverse the team away from home to lose, but Liverpool have never won against Barcelona at Anfield, which is a good historical number."

“…… Don't believe too much that history repeats itself, rules are always used to break. ”

"The Barcelona trident has reappeared, and I believe that the defense line of Finnan, Carragher, Ag, and Arbeloa will definitely not be able to withstand the Barcelona trident. Barcelona had beaten Anfield in the Champions League group stage in O1, and if they could have played the same scoreline this time, Barcelona would have come back from behind. ”

"But can Barcelona's backline stop Chen Yu?"

Not to mention the various yy in the stands, on the field, Puyol and Gerrard have already prepared various rituals, and the players from both sides have taken a group photo and then stood in their own half of the court, waiting for the game to start.

The referee of this match is Merck, a dentist from Germany, who is also a referee that UEFA focuses on training, and many people are optimistic that he will become the second Corina in the refereeing world.

Merck looked at his watch, 45 minutes, and when the time was up, he immediately blew the whistle for the start of the first half.

“…… The game began with the start of the match, which today is the second leg of the quarterfinals of the UUO7 Champions League season, with the red shirt worn by the Reds Liverpool and the yellow shirt worn by Barcelona, due to the surprise 1 win over Barcelona away from home in the round meeting two weeks ago. Barcelona will have to win by two goals to qualify for this tournament, having conquered Anfield once and have been knocked out by England five times in their history. There are opportunities, but the dangers are greater...... Rijkaard made four changes to the squad for this game, with Deco and Thuram, both of whom were left out of the league last weekend, and Andres Iniesta also getting a chance. Saviola returned to the bench for the second time since Sato'o last November

The commentator was introducing the background of the game, and the fans were watching the game intently.

The first kick-off was the away team Barcelona, although Barcelona urgently needed to score, and needed to score early, but after the game started, they did not speed up the tempo, but patiently reversed their feet, hoping to find Liverpool's loopholes through guò backwards, and then took advantage of the change of rhythm to suddenly start a fast attack.

Although Liverpool played a defensive counterattack today, but supported by the away victory, they played with confidence, not conservative at all, and launched a quick rush to Barcelona at the beginning, Barcelona's players obviously did not have this psychological preparation, the ball passed wrong under Liverpool's steal, and went directly out of the sideline.

Liverpool had the chance to possess the ball, and they were much faster than Barcelona, and Gerrard, who was in possession, didn't care if his team-mates behind him could keep up, and he dribbled high to Barca's bottom line.

Kuyt was on the top of the middle as a lighthouse, Chen Yu's position was very flexible, and when he saw that Gerrard was going to go down, he did not grab a point in the middle, but moved to the side to pick up Gerrard.

Obviously, today's Barcelona has long been prepared for a quick counterattack against Liverpool, although Gerrard's attack on Oleg's side is Barcelona's weakness, but Deco and Messi have come back to help defend, and Gerrard alone cannot break through the defense laid by these three players.

Gerrard is not only domineering in football, he is also very flexible, and when he saw that it was not good, he immediately passed the ball out and looked for Chen Yu to answer him.

After the ball passed, Gerrard continued to run to the baseline, hoping that Chen Yu would give him a reverse cut, although Chen Yu did not think that the captain could be faster than Messi, but he still rubbed the ball over the top and gave it to Gerrard.

Although Chen Yu is a striker today, Benitez's task today is very clear, the attack is not the most important, the most important thing is to limit Barcelona's attack, with this premise, then any player has a defensive task, whether it is Chen Yu or Kuyt. Therefore, Chen Yu did not bind himself to a shooter-type striker, but bound Piero's consciousness, who can score, organize, and control the ball.

Chen Yu's pass to Gerrard is very accurate, in terms of small skills, Chen Yu, who has Piero's awareness, is absolutely just right, Gerrard just ran to two meters before the bottom line to get it, as long as he adjusts it, he can cross.

However, Gerrard stopped the ball, took a step forward, and was just about to cross, but he didn't expect Messi to rush out from behind and snatch the ball with one kick at this time.

Gerrard was taken aback, and he immediately stepped down to counter-attack, trying to snatch the ball back before Messi adjusted, or destroy it, to prevent Barcelona from counterattacking quickly.

Because Gerrard was only two meters away from the bottom line, he felt that he was nine out of ten in that steal, but he didn't expect that Messi could actually make a move to turn the ball in a space of two meters, and directly shook Gerrard over.

However, Messi had just turned around and was about to bring the ball forward, when suddenly it appeared that Chen Yu was about to kill.

In this position, the most reasonable way to deal with the ball is naturally to pass the ball or open it with a big foot, because there is no point in passing people in this position, once it is stealed, it will be a big trouble, but Messi is young and vigorous, and he is bold, so he actually smashed the ball again and wanted to pass Chen Yu.

If there is no star system, Chen Yu thinks that Messi is a child and may be passed by him because of the light enemy, but in the star system, Chen Yu shows that Messi's level is actually a top superstar, and he is only one step away from the king of the ball.

Messi's buckle did not deceive Chen Yu, Chen Yu moved sideways, and then stepped down to steal.

Chen Yu felt that he had grasped the timing well, but he didn't expect Messi's action rate to be much faster than he imagined, and Messi flicked the ball again, allowing Chen Yu to grab a void again.

But at this time, Gerrard also turned around, he hit Messi from behind, knocked Messi into a stumble, and wanted to take the opportunity to grab the ball, but Messi's control of the ball was simply superb, the ball was like sticking to the soles of his feet, and Gerrard's steal was again in vain.

But Gerrard's body collision still played a role, Messi's center of gravity has been almost destroyed, when Chen Yu grabbed again, Messi couldn't make a move, and wanted to protect the ball, but the body was very different from Chen Yu, and Chen Yu squeezed down and stole the ball.

Messi had just shown his wonderful delicate skills in the sandwich between Chen Yu and Gerrard, but it was too dangerous to control the ball near his corner flag, Rijkaard was so anxious that he almost jumped up, and when he saw Chen Yu snatch the ball away, he was so anxious that he yelled on the sidelines for the player to fill in the position.

The commentator He Shishi greatly admired Messi's skills, "Great, this ball is a big thing, if you think about it, Messi will definitely become a big weapon, but it is really a bit risky to control the ball here, and there is even a suspicion of getting an axe in the class." Chen Yu's skills are no worse than him. ”

After all, He Shishi is Chinese, and his speech must be biased towards Chen Yu, although Chen Yu and Gerrard both defended Messi, but they still relied on a suspected foul physical contact to take the ball.

However, Chen Yu did not embarrass He Shishi, just like the long eyes behind his back, Chen Yu made a passing action, but he deducted the ball and deceived Iniesta, who pounced, and then steadily passed the ball to the goal to find Kuyt.
