Chapter 187: They are scared (Third update, please vote for me)

"Aguero Aguero scored a beautiful goal. This is Aguero's third league goal this season. He challenged Chen Yingxiong on the scorer list. In the previous two seasons, it was Chen Yingxiong and Robin van Persie. This season it is a turn. Are you coming to Aguero to challenge the hero’s supremacy?”

"As expected of Aguero, Manchester City's most popular player in the past two seasons, he has once again proven his ability."

"So far in the new season, no team has ever been able to make Liverpool fall behind first. Liverpool has always scored first... Now Aguero has done it and Manchester City has done it. The battle between these mortal enemies has really climaxed one after another, and it is very interesting to watch."

Seeing Aguero's goal, Mancini also jumped up from his seat. He raised his arms and shouted, celebrating the goal wildly with the people around him. His mood was the same as the Manchester City players on the field.

Liverpool have bullied us for too long. New and old scores must be settled together. We must avenge ourselves.

Now this is a good opportunity. The day when Manchester City will be proud in front of Liverpool is coming

Could he not be excited?

But next door, even though he lost the ball, Liverpool's head coach Martin O'Neill didn't look very angry or frustrated.

The core of Liverpool's tactics is to score first and take the lead. In this way, you will take the initiative, thereby pulling your opponent into your own rhythm of the game, so that the opponent can only follow you.

The commentator is right, Liverpool has never conceded first in the league this season.

Counting other games, Liverpool has only fallen behind first in the European Super Cup against Real Madrid.

This is not a completely bad thing for Liverpool, but a good thing for Liverpool, because it allows Liverpool players to accumulate experience by constantly encountering such situations.

For this team that is constantly adding new players and needs to be constantly adjusted, experience is the most valuable.

It's a pity that because Liverpool is too strong in the domestic league, there are not many such opportunities. I finally encountered it today, so naturally I have to study hard and accumulate experience in dealing with such situations.

Therefore, seeing the team lose the ball, Martin O'Neal did not show any frustration at all.

This disappointed those who were waiting to see the Liverpool joke.

After conceding a goal, Liverpool experienced a brief panic, but quickly calmed down again under the leadership of captain Gerrard and Chen Yingxiong.

Gerrard stabilized his players through his words and leadership qualities.

Chen Yingxiong used his actual actions.

He fired a long shot from outside the penalty area, forcing Joe Hart to make a wonderful save, and the Manchester City fans in the stands were so shocked that they forgot to boo again.

Although Chen Yingxiong's shot missed, it gave the Liverpool players two reminders. The first one is that we still have a hero. With him here, what else do we have to worry about? The second one is a long shot. Yes, long shot. It’s raining today and the field is slippery. Long shot is the best way to score.

Let's all take a long shot.

After Chen Yingxiong's long shot, Gerrard quickly followed up with a kick.

Both of these people are masters of long-range shooting.

※ ※ ※

Martin O'Neill was sitting on the coach's bench with his legs crossed. He seemed particularly relaxed and did not look like the head coach of a lagging team at all.

He made up his mind. This situation in this game is a rare test opportunity for Liverpool.

He wants to see how his players deal with this situation. Therefore, he will not make any adjustments in the first half, nor will he exercise his power as head coach.

If he can't handle his opponent in the first half, he will make adjustments during the halftime break.

He hopes this group of players won't keep him waiting too long.

※ ※ ※

Martin O'Neill did not wait too long.

After determining the long-range shooting strategy, Chen Yingxiong withdrew and formed a fort with Gerrard, constantly bombarding Manchester City's goal.

I have to say that this is indeed very effective and very threatening.

This is a bit like Liverpool's tactics against Manchester United. Chen Yingxiong withdrew and Suarez stepped forward. If Manchester City players come to defend Chen Yingxiong, is Suarez a vegetarian? If they are afraid of Suarez's ability and dare not step forward, then Chen Yingxiong's long-range shot is not in vain.

what to do? This makes them very confused.

Later they got entangled - who got the ball first and who was the biggest threat. If Chen Yingxiong got the ball, then he should defend Chen Yingxiong. If Suarez got the ball, then he should defend Suarez.

But there is always a gap in every hundred secrets.

In the 36th minute, Gerrard got the ball in front of the penalty area and was about to shoot from a long distance. Manchester City defenders swarmed to block it, but he gave the ball to Chen Yingxiong on the right.

Chen Yingxiong took a long shot without stopping the ball.

The football rushed towards the goal against the turf.

Joe Hart makes another world-class save

He rubbed it with his fingertips, and the football hit the goalpost, then bounced out from behind him and flew to the other side.

Just when the Manchester City fans were about to cheer for Joe Hart's wonderful performance, another figure wearing a red jersey appeared in their field of vision.

"Suarez——" As the commentator roared, the Uruguayan striker easily pushed the football into the empty goal.

"Liverpool equalized"

"Oh oh oh Suarez Suarez, he cleverly made a follow-up shot. Joe Hart made a very wonderful save for the first time, but this time he was too late. He was still lying on the ground and didn't get up... He could save He won Manchester City once, twice, and three times, but he can't be Manchester City's savior every time."

※ ※ ※

Seeing Suarez score, Martin O'Neill had a smile on his face.

This is the Liverpool he wants to see. No matter what situation they face, they must maintain enough confidence and calmness.

This is a necessary quality for wealthy families. Wealthy families have experienced great storms, so how can they be frightened and panicked by any scene? That's not a wealthy family, that's a nouveau riche.

The team conceded a goal, and Manchester City coach Mancini was a little upset.

The lead he had finally gained was just gone. Could he not be upset?

He also hopes to rely on this lead to win Liverpool.

If the team can beat Liverpool at home, he can take the opportunity to break the layers of shackles that have accumulated on the hearts of Manchester City players.

But looking at this momentum... something is not good.

Mancini will never admit or realize that he, like the players, already has a psychological shadow on Liverpool. Even at his home court, he lacks confidence and is always afraid of losing.

Feeling that the momentum was wrong, Mancini made the first adjustment. He asked the players not to attack aggressively for the time being, but to switch to defensive counterattacks.

As long as you don't keep conceding the ball, that's fine. Anyway, it was less than ten minutes before the end of the first half. After these ten minutes, if there was anything that needed to be adjusted, he would arrange it again during the intermission.

As long as they don't continue to concede goals, the team's morale will not fade.

※ ※ ※

Chen Yingxiong could clearly feel Manchester City's recycling during the game.

Taking advantage of the dead ball, Chen Yingxiong said to Gerrard: "Did you see that, Steve? They are afraid of us. They are obviously afraid of us."

Gerrard smiled: "You score four goals in one game and five goals in another game. Normal people would be afraid."

Chen Yingxiong also laughed: "Since they give me such face, how can I let them down?"

"what are you planning to do?"

"Of course it keeps them scared."

※ ※ ※

Aguero was dissatisfied with the team's tactical adjustments. According to his idea, the team should catch up immediately after being equalized, score another goal, and tell Liverpool that their equalizer was just a fluke. In terms of strength, we, Manchester City, are better and want to win at our home court. ? dream

Unexpectedly, Mancini chose a conservative tactic. Doesn't this clearly tell the other side, "We are afraid of you, so you must not attack us"?

The most important thing is that the team's tactics are said to be defensive counterattacks, but in fact they are defense. There is nothing wrong with counterattacks. He is useless, running up and down the frontcourt, accomplishing nothing but wasting energy.

He waved to his teammates behind him in the frontcourt, telling them to press forward when they attacked and provide him with sufficient support. Otherwise, what use would he and David Silva have...

※ ※ ※

The first half was about to end, and Manchester City seemed particularly cautious. They were cautious when defending, trying not to miss anyone. At the same time, he also pays attention to his movements at the front of the penalty area and does not foul easily.

Because they know that Liverpool has several guys who are good at taking free kicks. They didn't want to give Liverpool another chance to score at the end of the first half.

As the saying goes - the more you fear something, the more likely it will come.

All the Manchester City players were nervous and even a little nervous. When they didn't want to foul, they still fouled...

Thirty-three meters away from the goal and slightly to the right, Lescott went around to defend and bumped into Sanchez who was cutting inside.

It's hard to say whether Sanchez dived. Anyway, Lescott seemed very excited after hearing the whistle. He kept signaling to the referee that Sanchez had dived.

The Manchester City players and coaches off the court also loudly protested to the referee. Head coach Mancini, in particular, seemed very excited. He pulled the fourth official to complain about Sanchez's diving behavior.

Liverpool definitely wanted to protect their teammates and naturally refused to give in. They believed that Lescott had indeed fouled Sanchez.

So was there a foul? TV slow play gave the answer. Lescott did commit a foul, but Sanchez's fall was a bit exaggerated...

But no matter what, there is no problem with this free kick. Sanchez's exaggerated performance will at best make everyone debate whether to give Lescott a yellow card or not.

The referee did not give a yellow card.

So there is nothing to argue about.

However, the Manchester City players and coaches refused to give up, with a posture of "If you don't change our backcourt free kick, I will never finish with you."

Of course the referee will not make this change.

※ ※ ※

While they were besieging the referee, Chen Yingxiong had already arranged the football with his teammates.

Then just watch.

All he saw on the faces of these excited Manchester City players was panic.

Since you have given me so much face, how can I bear to disappoint you?

I'm so satisfied with you, otherwise wouldn't your worry be in vain? The most painful and cruel thing in life must be this, right?

Don't worry, I, Chen Yingxiong, will never disappoint people. Since you are so afraid, I will naturally go all out to fulfill your wishes.
