Chapter 732: Liverpool's Counterattack (Part I)

Chapter 73

Watching Mourinho's crazy show, Chelsea fans and players celebrated wildly, as if they had won, Liverpool's players were extremely depressed and angry, they resisted stubbornly for more than 60 minutes under Chelsea's shameless foul tactics, but in the end they were broken by Chelsea, which is almost entirely a reflection of Drogba's personal ability, but the Liverpudlians are not convinced, because in the Liverpool lineup, Gerrard and Chen Yu's personal ability is not inferior to Drogba, But today's referee Merck was clearly biased in favour of Chelsea, with Chelsea being unscrupulous when breaking and Liverpool's players having a lot of scruples when they broke through, and Chelsea's stars were even better.

Benitez saw that the players' feelings were a little low and frustrated, at this time they fought for fighting spirit and perseverance, and if the feelings were not high, it was easy to be defeated by the opponent, this is a two-legged knockout match, and it is really nothing to lose away from home, and there is a great hope of returning to the home court, and it will be dangerous if you lose the ball again.

"If you lose a goal, you can't lose it, there is still time, there are still 30 minutes, this is only the first round, you have to pick yourself up, use a tougher attitude, be in the best shape to deal with the next game, you must not concede a second goal......

Benitez ran to the pitch to warn the Liverpool players, and the face-to-face lecture was appropriate, but he was soon called out by UEFA officials, but Gerrard and Chen Yu played the role of coaches on the field, and the two of them actively encouraged their teammates, so that their teammates should not be impatient, not lose confidence, and under the appeasement of the team's spiritual leader and attacking core, the Liverpool players finally calmed down a little.

The Chelsea players were less anxious after scoring and celebrated for a long time before continuing the game.

Chelsea and Jose Mourinho are both extremely utilitarian, and the average team will retreat after scoring a goal, but at least they have to make a transition and gradually find the rhythm from attacking to defending, but Chelsea have gone straight from onslaught to dense defence, returning to their own half for Liverpool to attack.

This is Mourinho's cleverness, the game is changing rapidly, a goal can be scored in a few seconds, and now the referee Merck's penalty scale is looser, which is conducive to defense, and Chelsea's defense Mourinho is full of confidence, he must shrink back to defend and keep the fruits of O's victory.

Liverpool and Chelsea have played more than a dozen times since Mourinho took charge, and all Liverpudlians know Mourinho's filthiness, which they are not surprised, but because of this, the Liverpool players' desire to win is even stronger, and they can't look at the villain's smug face after Mourinho's victory.

Chelsea's contraction is not good for Liverpool, because Benitez has just replaced the tallest Crouch and put on Bellamy, who plays fast counterattacks, and now Bellamy can also use it when breaking through on the side, but there is no height in the middle of the grab, Chen Yu's bounce is very strong, and the header is also good, but the absolute height is there, and he is definitely inferior to Crouch in the control of the high-altitude ball.

After playing for a few minutes, Benitez saw that Chen Yu was fighting too hard between a group of muscles in Chelsea, constantly being knocked over, and the referee Merck gave a free kick at most, and even didn't bother to get a yellow card, which made Liverpool's offensive lethality drop by one-third.

In this case, Benitez could only make substitutions, and in the 7o minute, Dutch midfielder Cendon went down, Dutch striker Kuyt came up, and Benitez sent a 433 formation to attack with all his might.

Kuyt came on and settled in the middle, while Chen Yu did not go to the wing, his position retreated, and captain Gerrard came to the wing.

In fact, Chen Yu is faster, and it is more suitable to play on the wing, but now Liverpool is behind the score, and Liverpool urgently needs to score, if Chen Yu pulls to the side and stays away from the goal, his ability to score is weakened, in order to maintain Chen Yu's deterrence on the goal, so Benitez can only wronged Gerrard to play on the right side.

Chen Yu has a muscle in front of him and entangles with Chelsea's defenders, Chen Yu is much easier, although there are not many people who defend him, but Kuyt is wandering around at the front of the penalty area, and Chelsea's players dare not defend Kuyt, so whether Kuyt takes the ball to Chen Yu to make the ball, or Chen Yu attracts the bag to Kuyt to make the ball, the threat to Chelsea's goal is not small.

In the 75th minute of the game, Liverpool attacked on the left side, Bellamy took advantage of Chelsea's right-back Ferreira, Ferreira is Chelsea's biggest shortcoming, he did not keep up with Bellamy, reached out and did not pull, Joe Cole did not return to the defense in place, and was burst to the bottom line by Bellamy to form a cross.

Kuyt moved to the left side of the penalty area when Bellamy broke through, ready to grab the front point, and also gave Chen Yu space to dodge forward, which was also one of the tactics developed by Benitez before the game.

Kuyt's running took away Chelsea's midfielder Mikel, in this case of defense, Makelele is definitely not as effective as Mikel, but the middle of the Makelele can not keep up with the forward Chen Yu, the running without the ball Chen Yu is very flexible, Makelele ten years ago was almost able to keep up, now he can only get stuck in the middle, forcing Chen Yu to step forward from one side.

In Makellele's view, there are two central defenders in the middle, as long as the key points in the middle are protected, Chen Yu does not have to worry about inserting from the left or right ribs, Carvalho and Terry are experienced and will never let Chen Yu succeed.

Chen Yu bypassed Makelele and quickly scored from the left rib, he did not avoid Terry's side of attacking Carvalho, comparatively speaking, Terry's height and strength are more aggressive, Chen Yu's attack on Carvalho is actually a better choice, his choice of Terry to die is incomprehensible.

Although Terry was a little annoyed, he didn't dare to despise Chen Yu, he had fought with Chen Yu more than once, he knew how powerful Chen Yu was, don't look at Chen Yu who was 7 cm shorter than himself, but Chen Yu's bounce was very good, and his strength was not weak, and now he rushed up again, with a degree of advantage, if he just jumped up and competed for the top, he might not be able to snatch Chen Yu.

At this time, Terry steadily chose to move forward, and he couldn't top it and didn't let Chen Yu hit it.

This is undoubtedly a solid choice, and although Terry can't clear the siege, Chen Yu can't grab this point.

However, Terry glanced at the side out of the corner of his eye when he greeted him, and immediately realized that he had been fooled, because Gerrard had actually cut from the side to the box, and Ashley on the wing. Cole didn't even keep up, and was thrown off more than a position by Gerald, who was not as good as him.

At this time, all Chelsea people understood why Chen Yu knocked Terry hard, it turned out that Chen Yu just made a false shot, and did not intend to compete with Terry for the header, he was actually covering Gerrard, and it was Gerrard who was really responsible for the final blow.

The reason why Liverpool's tactics have deceived Chelsea's players is because Chen Yu has always been the terminator of Liverpool's attack, and it is others who cover Chen Yu again, and now Liverpool suddenly does the opposite, and it is normal for Chelsea to not imagine it.

“…… Danger Gerrard is unguarded by Ashley. Kerr started late and didn't keep up with the Liverpool captain...... The Chelsea goalkeeper is moving towards the post, but he seems to be a little late......

Gerrard jumped up almost unguarded to strike from a tight angle, saying almost, because Ashley was behind him. Cole was still following closely, he couldn't make a real deal of trouble with Gerrard's attack, but he was able to put pressure on Gerrard psychologically, Gerrard rushed too quickly, jumped up a little early to head the ball, he jumped to the top of the ball before it arrived, and when he started to fall, the ball flew right above his head, and the ball went over the crossbar like a defender clearance.

It was a false alarm that gave Chelsea fans and players a sigh of relief, they were all terrified that if Gerrard's header was the same as his long-range shot, Chelsea would have conceded this time.

This attack is a reminder to Chelsea, their opponent is not an ordinary team, this is a giant who has won five titles in the Champions League, they have the world's best goalscorer Chen, and one of the best midfielders Gerrard, even if they defend intensively, they may not be able to guarantee that the opponent will not be able to break, they want to keep the score, not only tactically opposed, the players must also give 120 per cent effort.

Mourinho's attack furioused Mourinho and he rushed to the sidelines and yelled at his backline, "Pay attention, remember how you lost last time, we have to beat them this time".

Liverpool's beautiful attack did not score, but it greatly boosted the confidence and morale of the players, Chelsea's iron bucket formation is notoriously difficult to break, Mourinho once bragged like this: if Chelsea don't score, then the game is a draw, if Chelsea scores, then Chelsea can win the game, which shows Mourinho's confidence in his own defense. Chelsea's defence proved to be solid, with the big three never winning by more than two goals against Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal.

It can be said that the whole England has little confidence in breaking Chelsea's defense, this time Liverpool can get an unguarded scoring opportunity, which shows that Chelsea's defense is porous, as long as Liverpool's ability to grasp the opportunity is stronger, or Gerrard, who just shot the goal, is replaced by Chen Yu, it is estimated that Liverpool will score.
