Chapter 225: Playing football with the leader.
Bitter or not, think of the Red Army Liverpool.
It's not bad, look at the Gunners Arsenal.
Liverpool fans have been very bitter in recent years, and their beloved team has always fallen at the critical moment of the championship, and they have also encountered various bizarre objective factors.
Financial reasons hindered the club's development for a while, and it had to sell off a group of key players.
Torres.
Suarez.
Stirling.
One by one, the hopes of winning the championship left, and the huge debt still crushed the Red Army.
Klopp came, still bitter.
Heavy metal rock football will not be able to completely save Anfield in the short term, and the squad will need time to be polished.
In last season's Europa League final, the weak backline was beaten by Sevilla.
In this historical period, Liverpool is the losing king of the strong and the weak, not only hurting the hearts of their own fans, but also harvesting many bettors who are concerned about red.
After many years, when neutral fans talk about the Istanbul miracle, the first thing that comes to mind is not the champion Liverpool, but AC Milan.
Around noon.
The red bus slowly drove towards the Emirates Stadium.
'Our defenders are prone to being out of position, the midfielder doesn't necessarily have the ball! But Arsenal also have a lot of problems. β
"Wenger didn't find the usage of Mr. 200 million so quickly!"
"them!"
Klopp clenched his fists and shouted encouragement to his players.
He was answered by enthusiastic shouts.
After ten months of polishing, the German coach earned the respect of his disciples.
Mane excitedly borrowed a new mobile phone from his team-mates through the car window, only to find that even with the ultra-wide-angle lens, he couldn't fully capture the front of the Emirates Stadium.
His first two seasons for Southampton at Arsenal were nights and he didn't have time to admire the modern stadium.
Residents walking their dogs and running around the stadium did not show race-day passion.
Eight giant murals on the faΓ§ade depict the backs of Arsenal's 32 legendary stars.
"That's the statue of Bergkamp."
"Henry."
"Addams."
"Mane, be quiet! You represent Liverpool now! No other player can do such a stupid thing. β
Arsenal's dressing room seating is arranged like a "saddle".
Assistant coach Boulder is repeating the pre-game deployment.
Wenger called Li Kang aside, holding the small tactical board and said: "It takes time and process to run-in, Liverpool have the best forward combination in Europe, but your main task is not to defend and play according to your own ideas, especially against Moreno's side." β
He is good at pre-war arrangement, but his ability to change formations on the spot is weaker than that of other famous commanders, so he is willing to give Li Kang full freedom.
'You don't have to stick to the way Arsenal trains.
"Don't put too much emphasis on winning or losing the first round."
The Premier League has been hellish in the last two years.
Arsenal and Liverpool are always in a five-to-five situation, and if they are not careful, they will be crushed unilaterally.
Li Kang glanced at the tactical board.
I didn't fully understand the coaching staff's thoughts for a while.
Emirates Stadium.
Tens of thousands of Arsenal fans hold red and white scarves aloft aloft them.
βThe Arsenal~β
βGood old Arsenal~β
βwe are proud to say that name~β
The mascot, Rex, is a green pot-bellied dinosaur with a hat, which can also be said to be a lizard.
It was enthusiastically shaking hands with the young fans in the nearby stands, and it was cute and cute.
The interval between the Premier League stadium and the stands is very short.
βESPNοΌ ESPNοΌ Now for you is the opening match of the first round of the 2016/17 Premier League season! β
"Ah Xian. Arsenal host Liverpool! β
"The gunners against the Red Army, the smoke of gunpowder fills the air!"
"I'm the commentator of this game, Huang Xinggui!"
Player tunnel.
Players from both sides greeted each other cordially.
A lot of them have played for Southampton.
If the commentator has a hot brain, the game can be explained as: "The former Southampton winger passed the former Southampton defender. Crossing into the box, the former Southampton midfielder came to the back post. β
Mane took the initiative to greet Li Kang, and the little boiled egg showed a sincere smile and showed a mouthful of white teeth.
"Lee, I watched your game in the European Championship and was stunned."
The scene is like: when you return to the village for the Chinese New Year, you have a simple childhood friend who has been happily surrounding you.
The experience of his youth made Mane have a deep affection for the Eastern country.
There was no chance to go on with pleasantries.
The queue moved.
Referee Oliver led the players from both sides out of the aisle.
Emirates Stadium.
The singing stopped abruptly and was replaced by frantic cheers.
Li Kang starts.
The debut of Arsenal's new No.10!
He looked around the Emirates Stadium.
The system prompt sounded quietly.
[Ding, mission trigger: Premier League debut!] γ
[Mission Description: This is an offensive drama, your new coach will not assign you any defensive tasks, Klopp is the nemesis of passing, it is difficult for your club teammates to support a long period of passing and falling feet, don't fantasize about controlling the rhythm, can you beat this Liverpool team? ] Only a crazier offense than them! γ
[Reward: Liverpool Legends: Golden Chest.] γ
"Arsenal in red and white home shirts!"
"Liverpool are wearing this season's black away kit!"
"Look at the formation of both sides."
"Wow, it's a life-fighting style on both sides!"
"Arsene Wenger made a 4-1-3-2!"
'Goalkeeper: Cech.
"Defenders: Monreal, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Bellerin!"
"Single midfielder: Cazorla!"
"Central midfielders: Walcott, Lee Kang, Sanchez!"
'Strikers: Olivier Giroud, Alvaro Morata!'
The live broadcast room blew up.
-
[This isn't a cup game, is it? How Wenger is alive, Liverpool's firepower is so fierce, let Cazorla play a single midfielder. γ
-
[Our factory has collapsed. γ
-
[What is the collapse? The match between Arsenal and Liverpool was a 2-2, 3-3 draw. γ
-
[I didn't let Li Mingdeng kick the back, a little incomprehensible. γ
-
[This formation is actually a four-striker, don't you want midfield control? ] γ
-
[Rest assured, Arsene Wenger will only be in the cup.] It won't be messy in the league, it should be to fully revolve around Li Minglan to attack, and maybe the professor can unlock a new tactical reform achievement. γ
'Liverpool have a 4-3-3 formation.
"Goalkeeper: Karius!"
"Guards: Klein, Lovren, Clavan, Moreno!"
"Single midfielder: Jordan Henderson!"
"Central midfielders: Wijnaldum, Lallana!"
'Forwards: Coutinho, Firmino, Mane!'
-
[Mane and Karius have made their Reds debuts with many new signings! ] γ
-
[It's also a desperate way to play!] Counting Wijnaldum's attacking attributes, it's actually a quadruple striker again! γ
-
[Liverpool's forward line can be said to be European T0, right? ] Only under MSN and BBC. γ
-
[Not necessarily, it depends on the run-in between Mane and his teammates.] γ
-
[It's all stars produced by Southampton, but it's a pity that Liverpool doesn't have enough money in this summer window, otherwise it would be perfect to bring Van Dijk over. γ
Beep!
Accompanied by a whistle from the referee.
The competition is officially on!
Arsenal possession.
Morata kicks off with a backfoot and passes back to Cazorla.
The latter touched the ball with one foot and stuffed it diagonally to Li Kang.
The gunner formation advanced rapidly.
After a few simple passes.
The football crossed the center circle line and returned to Li Kang's feet again.
A black-clad figure quickly approached.
Firmino!
Liverpool Shield.
Defensive center.
Didn't kick out immediately.
He kept a certain distance and waited for Wijnaldum's support.
"Liverpool are starting to press back on the centre line!"
"The distribution of the players' runs cuts the link between the three lines of Arsenal!"
"Jurgen Klopp's signature 'crazy run' tactic."
"Li Kang's situation is a bit difficult, one to two, and the newcomers have to slowly adapt to the Premier League"
"Wow!"
Li Kang enjoyed watching Liverpool's game footage during this time.
Take the ball on the outside of your left foot.
The whole person rushed past Firmino's side.
Without the Star Module and the foal, the explosion will not be fast.
Firmino's face was black.
That's all for the European Champions midfield?
He was decisive.
The timing is very accurate.
Syllable.
The moment you are about to poke the ball.
The whole person was bounced away by a huge force!
Wijnaldum, who came to help the defense, was also blocked by his teammates to block the space for the scramble!
The audience was in an uproar.
They all looked up at the LED screen in mid-air to see the moment of slow-motion replay.
"Exceptional!"
"Extraordinary!"
"Violence!"
"One trip and one rush, squeezing two people away!"
"Li Kang used a very Premier League way to resolve Liverpool's pressing!"
"It's not five seconds!"
"Nope!"
"He's going to pass the ball?"
Liverpool's "five-second rule" during this period had not yet been thoroughly perfected.
What is Klopp's five-second rule? It is suitable for running and pressing in the opening game and counter-tackling after losing possession.
Grab with all your strength in five seconds, and reshape the defensive formation if you can't grab it.
Klopp looked at Arsenal's No.10 on the pitch, a little confused.
Not to push forward?
Nor is it a short pass infiltration?
But just get a big foot?
Is there a pick-up point in the front court? Giroud and Morata were both defended.
Emirates Stadium.
The soccer ball leaves Li Kang's left foot.
A graceful trajectory was suddenly outlined in mid-air.
Straight down the right side.
A red and white figure swept by!
Bellerin!
La Masia's youth academy is a fast horse on the wing!
It was as if no one had noticed when he exploded.
"Li Kang's ball pass point is not passed!"
"Klein turned around very quickly!"
"It's like he's in a track and field race with Bellerin!"
"Oops!"
"How did you get overtaken by a position!"
"When the ball hits the ground, it bounces back on the spot! Cross's signature - gravity waves! β
In the cheers of the audience.
Bellerin touched the ball first.
I couldn't help but secretly sigh in my heart: this kind of passing is too comfortable.
Klein is not a vegetable, and he is also solid in defense as a striker, and now he has suffered a loss of local speed competition.
Syllable!
The Liverpool full-backs didn't have time to block!
Bellerin has completed his kick-to-kick cross!
The football crashed into the Liverpool penalty area.
The fans at the scene were a little unresponsive: is this still Arsenal's beautiful football?
Pitchside.
Assistant coach Boulder shouted with a fist waving.
"Boss, Li's long fax is direct!"
"Tearing up Liverpool's wide defence in one fell swoop."
Arsene Wenger subconsciously touched the zipper, only to find that he was passing a button-down shirt today.
There was a hint of confusion on his face: "I let Li not have to stick to the midfield transition, but I didn't expect him to pass directly." β
The other side.
Klopp stood in the command area and roared wildly.
Right.
The Liverpool boss is starting to get into shape.
Inside the large restricted area.
Olivier Giroud and Lovren jumped at the same time and couldn't get the first point.
"Rear point!"
"Morata!"
A tall figure occupies everyone's attention.
Terrifying take-off height.
Incredible body coordination.
The audience couldn't help but open their mouths wide: 50 million euros, it's worth it!
Morata completely crushed Clavan.
Fight for football!
Goalkeeper Karius quickly adjusted his position, he was bitter in his heart, he met the young Li Kang in the Bundesliga, and met the evolved version of Li Kang in his debut at Liverpool after coming to the Premier League!
"Oops? Morata doesn't shoot at all? β
"He gave the ball to Walcott, who was in a better position!"
"Cannon!"
"The little tiger can't get up!"
Walcott didn't have a chance to shoot.
Henderson fills the gap in time!
Although his strength on paper at this period is far from touching the T0 threshold, as soon as he puts on the Liverpool shirt, he can transform into a particularly formidable English midfielder.
There was no grappling.
The Arsenal tiger gave the ball to Alexis Sanchez, who stepped forward.
"It's too complicated!"
"Morata can go straight to the goal from that point."
"Why do you pass so many feet!"
"There's too much to talk about."
The stocky and stout Chilean was quickly intercepted by Moreno!
Right!
Although Liverpool's wing-back is easy to lose position, he has an excellent sense of filling in the position!
Sanchez's thighs, ready to move.
He was ready to come on his own.
Get ready to eat Moreno raw and blast the far corner!
Electrifying moments.
Li Kang's figure appeared in his sight.
The words that Arsene Wenger had spoken at the training ground rang in his ears.
Damn it.
This kid's running position, why is it so good.
Syllable!
Arsenal, who likes to play alone, passed the ball in the thigh!
"And the pass? Too much to spare."
"I'm not playing with the leader!"
"Wow, this is beautiful football!"
No one was staring at Li Kang.
The complicated and redundant offensive pass actually gave him enough time to run from the middle circle to the front of the big penalty area.
The director cut to a close-up.
The red and white jerseys are blown by the wind and hunted!
The body is slightly tilted.
Swing arm.
Kicker.
Li Kang pulled Arsenal's trigger.
In the field of vision, Ronaldinho's phantom gradually drifted away.
Bang!
It's not a sky-high explosion!
The ball arced in an exaggerated arc over the Liverpool penalty area.
Violent maneuver!
Unpredictable!
It seems to be a powerful shot, but it is light and agile.
Karius had been educated by Li Kang's heavy artillery.
He subconsciously chose his position for the first time, ready to fight hard and show a highlight performance in his debut.
But I didn't expect the opponent to hit an instep curve ball!
The Liverpool goalkeeper was stunned.
Stupidly watching the football fall into the net!
"Wow!"
"Amazing!"
"Top!"
"Excellent!"
"Devil's Arc! Hang on to the dead end! β
"Arsenal's new No. 10 Li Kang! The perfect Premier League debut! β
"He's the lethal finisher of the last pass in beautiful football!"
Live room.
The barrage is crazy about swiping the screen.
-
[What is this?] Li Mingdeng is too awesome! γ
-
[He made Arsenal's attack more three-dimensional!] γ
-
[Karius is like a fool, don't you say it's a talented goalkeeper in the Bundesliga? γ
-
[He is not stupid, the position selection is great, it is a mistake in prediction, it can only be said that Xiao Lizi's arc shot is blowing up the sky! ] γ
-
[A little bit of Messi, right?] γ
-
[No, it's Xiao Luo's taste, Messi's shooting action seems to be light, but in fact, the ball speed and strength are very explosive, and the shooting characteristics of the two are opposite. γ
-
[Don't worry, Liverpool is very good at playing against the wind! ] Their offense is awesome. γ
Emirates Stadium.
The bowl-shaped stands shook off a red and white wave like a crashing wave.
The cheers were endless.
Mr. 200 million helped the team open up the situation.
βLeeοΌοΌοΌβ
βCome on you gunnersοΌοΌοΌβ
The team-mates quickly surrounded the scorer.
It's too easy to play football with Li Kang!
The farthest goalkeeper, Petr Cech, suddenly experienced De Gea's happiness.
Sanchez hesitated, then laughed and cut through the crowd.
He doesn't like to go it alone, and he doesn't like to slow down the team's attacking tempo.
It's just that the former Premier League assist king, the speed of the ball has not fully integrated with the running rhythm of the Chileans.
It seems that this season is not so far away from the championship trophy.
Morata patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Well done you kid, the America's Cup winner and the European Cup winner!"
"What did the coach say? It's like playing football with him, try to attack around Lee as much as possible. β
The crowd laughed.
One side rejoices.
One side is sad.
Henderson hugged Karius' head and then picked the ball out to Coutinho.
"Cheer up! The race has just begun! β
'Arsenal's defence is just as fragile in front of us!'
Mane looked at Li Kang's back, inexplicably excited and excited.
Pitchside.
Boulder specifically mimicked Klopp's celebration: a quick punch into the air!
Arsene Wenger clapped his palms happily.
Lee's goal made him happy.
Sanchez's pass was also a relief for him.
glanced at the bench and couldn't help but sigh: With Lee, Arsenal can play a lot of cards.
"There is no need to make any changes."
"Let Lee focus on the offense."
'Liverpool's defence is a serious problem, especially on Moreno's side.
The other side.
Klopp roared angrily.
Syllable!
I accidentally threw my glasses on the turf.
He hurriedly beckoned Wijnaldum and said, "I told you many times before the game. Why didn't you keep an eye on Lee! β
"How simple his attack was at Arsenal, with long passes from the centre circle behind the wings and no passes to play to Bellerin's speed and thus indirectly exploit Morata's high air advantage. Notice Lee's gesture? It's only changed twice! β
"The next few passes from Arsenal up front were all for him alone."
"I'm waiting for him to interject."
"How can this tactic that violates the law of attack break our goal?"
Wijnaldum is a top student at Ajax and can certainly understand.
But the little black egg still maintained a helpless and bitter expression: Kante can't keep an eye on Lee, how can he keep an eye on a midfielder with full attacking attributes?
That kid is like a man with eyes all over his body, omniscient and omniscient on the field, always one step ahead of him.
The lap was reopened.
Firmino kicks off and passes back to Henderson.
Liverpool's midfield formation immediately spread out.
It was as if there was a black torrent, frantically devouring the red and white halves.
You can underestimate Liverpool's defence, but you can never underestimate their attack.
I'll watch the game together after I'm done. It's intermittent, otherwise I won't be able to remember what I watched today tomorrow, so it's good to watch it continuously.
Zhan Jun's commentary is actually difficult to write well, so this game is written by Mr. Huang, which is simple and brainless, and there are a lot of words missing when you change it back and forth.
