Liverpool's passing is based on the rapid advance of the midfield on the counter-attack, and the maximum direct threat to the opponent's goal.

The attacking tandem up front was done by Coutinho.

To interfere with his threatening dribbling on the edge of the box, Harry Aat will have to keep him close to him.

Harry, who came off the bench in the second half, was full of fitness and would be closely marked by Coutinho whenever he came to the front of the penalty area.

Eddie Howe gave him the order to defend Coutinho at all costs and leave nothing else to worry about.

After his appearance, Coutinho was not as easy up front as he was in the first half.

And when the game time came to 65 minutes, the fitness of the players on both sides began to decline, not to mention Coutinho, who had been using dribbling to get rid of the defense.

At this time, it is not a wise move to fight hard, first pass the ball back, take a breath and then reorganize the attack.

When the ball returned to Liverpool's half, Eddie Howe waved his hands and urged his team to press quickly.

The opponent's technique and ability are many times better than their own, and if they are given a chance to breathe, they will slowly control the tempo and take the initiative.

Bournemouth can't let that happen, they have to take control of the tempo and keep it in their own hands.

Rossi rushed up as soon as he could, not allowing Gerrard to slowly comb the ball at the back.

As he gets older, Gerald's B2B's round-trip and assault capabilities gradually decline.

Seeing the black-haired kid who knocked himself to the ground just now, he was unwilling, but helpless.

If I was a few years younger, I might not know who it was that fell to the ground just now.

Joining Rossi in the grabs were Ryan Fraser and Wilson.

Their task was to press the two centre-backs around Steven Gerrard, forcing the ball back to the goalkeeper or to send it up front.

Gerrard observed, then ran to the unguarded area to receive the ball while passing it back to the goalkeeper.

Rossi didn't say a word, running straight between their passing lanes, and then slowly moving closer to Gerrard.

Liverpool goalkeeper Jones didn't have a good spot on the ball and took the ball forward himself.

After greeting Ryan Frazier, Rossi lunged straight to the goalkeeper and asked his team-mates to help him defend Gerrard.

As soon as Frazier moved, Liverpool centre-back Skrtel had space to get the ball and the goalkeeper quickly passed the ball.

At this point, Rossi swerved towards Skrtel and blocked his line back to the goalkeeper, with Ryan Ferreser also cheating him around the same time.

Although blocking the ground pass, Skrtel can play the ball high and pass it to his teammates.

Once the ball was cleared, Rossi pounced in the direction of the catch.

In short, you can't let your opponent pass the ball easily.

[The Bournemouth team fought fiercely in the front, and did not give Liverpool time to organize calmly, and the players had to divide the ball immediately after they got the ball, otherwise it would be very dangerous. 】

[However, this kind of scramble is very physically exhausting. 】

As the commentator said, this is how Bournemouth steal the rhythm.

Under the pressure of the frontcourt players like "mad dogs", the Liverpool goalkeeper in order to ensure the safety of the back, after receiving the return pass from his teammates, he directly got up and sent the ball to the opponent's half.

Lucas jumped for the top and the ball was headed by Gosling from behind him to Richie, who brought him down.

Drip!

The referee blew for a foul on Gosling behind his back, which drew dissatisfaction and protests from the home team's players.

In order to compete for the ball, Bournemouth can be described as doing their best, and every opportunity is very precious.

After Liverpool's kick-off, Bournemouth started their press again.

What's going on, can these human bodies be infinite?

In the case of falling behind by three goals, there can still be such an aggressive pressing, which is not to score a goal, and vow not to give up.

In the 74th minute, Rodgers replaced Coutinho with Emre Can to strengthen the defence.

At the same time, it also allows the players to rest.

After all, there is a league game with Arsenal at the weekend, and the overall situation of this game has been decided, and it is necessary to save the physical strength of the main players.

Emre's arrival is not only to strengthen Liverpool's midfield passing, but his pace and dribbling can also impact the Bournemouth defence.

In the 78th minute, Wilson's pressing was not followed up in time, allowing Gerrard to take the ball from the back and pass to the left rib area on the weak side.

Emre used a feint to burst into the box from the left side of Gosling, faced Elfik's defence, and after smashing the ball in succession, he pulled out space and volleyed into the near corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Boruc was highly focused, flying and making a sideways save to save the ball off the line.

This shot made the home fans exclaim.

You can't concede any more goals, and if you lose any more goals, you'll be bloodbathed.

Lucas took a tactical corner and it was clear from that that Liverpool wanted to keep the tempo of the game firmly in check.

Can you run again, can you last 90 minutes, and you don't let up at all?

Now it's all hanging with one breath, and if one more goal is scored, Bournemouth will definitely collapse.

In the 80th minute, Bournemouth's high-pressure pressing continued, but it was significantly weaker than before.

The player's legs began to grow heavier and his breathing began to be irregular.

Liverpool took advantage of the gap and launched a surprise attack, Lallana crossed from the flank to the flanked Sterling.

The latter's shot was jammed by Cook and missed the spot, and the ball was confiscated by the goalkeeper.

Boruc strode out with the ball and slashed his foot across the halfcourt.

Although Wilson leaned on Henderson with his body, there were small movements on both hands, and he could not guarantee a steady stop on the ball.

In desperation, Wilson chested the ball to Richie, and the impact was so great that he almost kicked him out of breath.

Richie looked up and saw that Rossi had moved between Gerard and Sacco, a perfect position.

He didn't stop the ball and sent a shot over the top.

At the moment of passing, Rossi started quickly, and in an instant he came to the edge of the penalty area, ready to stop the ball and shoot.

The ball was unloaded perfectly with the instep of his foot, and he took a small step forward so that he could shoot with the momentum.

But a figure suddenly flashed in front of him, and he tackled the ball and knocked it down.

When Rossi fell to the ground, no whistles were heard, only boos from the home fans.

There were no fouls in this tackle and it was very clean.

A large hand reached out to Rossi, and he looked up to see that it was none other than Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, who had knocked him down.

"If you want to shoot, you're still a little tender."

Gerald, whose chest was rising and falling violently, did not mean to provoke, but only out of respect for Rossi.

Tenacious, too tenacious!

In the second half, the Bournemouth team used their running ability to expand the defensive area, forcing them to be a little physically overwhelmed in the second half.

And the intensity of the game is almost the same level as the league, and it can even be compared to the middle and upper teams.

If it weren't for the scoreboard to remind them of a three-goal lead, there would always be a feeling of being overturned at any time.

"Next time, I won't let you tackle."

Gerrard pulled him up and smiled, "Don't talk big, look, the game is almost over." ”
