Chapter 444: FIFA virus

Three consecutive victories!

Liverpool's victory in this double red match at the opening stage of the Premier League further proved the team's ability to fight tough battles.

Even without Suarez, this Liverpool is a top strong team in the Premier League.

And what makes Liverpool most happy is that after this round of competition, Liverpool, which has won three consecutive victories, can already lead the standings alone.

This season, although the recruitment of several major teams is very impressive, but due to their internal problems, at the beginning of the season, except for Liverpool, other major teams have lost certain points.

Manchester United lost the meritorious coach Ferguson, the team is still the same team, but the coach Moyes coaching ability, as well as his control of the locker room, judging from the results of the two tough battles with Chelsea and Liverpool at the beginning of the game, It seems that they are all short of Ferguson. Manchester United lost 5 points in 2 games. It really doesn't look like a defending champion should have the state.

For Tottenham, after losing Bale this summer, although the team has introduced many players, the number of players on the field is limited after all. The original offensive system of the team is not as rich as the traditional Premier League giants. With such a hot spot player with super personal ability like Bell, the team's offense has a clear gap compared with last season.

Only scored 3 goals in 3 games and barely achieved a record of 2 wins and 1 loss, but unlike Liverpool, which defended the game for the sake of defense, Tottenham’s tactics are more of their own offensive unsatisfactory. , Resulting in delays in expanding the score.

Arsenal and Manchester City both capsized in the gutter before the start.

Arsenal lost 1 to 3 at home to Villa in the first round of the game, exposing many weaknesses in their defense, while Manchester City lost 2 to 3 away to Cardiff in the second round, which was also attacked by their opponents. Beat up with a counterattack.

Now the second place in the league is Chelsea, led by Mourinho, who has just returned to the Premier League. However, in the previous red and blue wars, Manchester United was drawn away and lost two points. They were able to score 3 points steadily against the underdogs. , Showed a good competitive state.

However, the dressing room under Mourinho’s control is a big problem. Many Chelsea players are already complaining about Mourinho’s training methods and the “bus tactics”. If they can’t solve the players’ personalities well, The problem is that Chelsea is very likely to collapse when the hearts of the team are uneven.

As far as the opening stage of the Premier League is concerned, Liverpool is definitely the strong, in perfect form and the most championship-like team.

It's just that Liverpool's three-game winning streak in the Premier League was interrupted by the national team's match day.

After the national team match day, the FIFA virus struck, and most of Liverpool's starters were exhausted by the two national team games.

In the fourth round of the Premier League, in the away game against Swansea, most of the main players were due to the two matches of the national team, which caused serious problems with the players’ physical fitness and was recharged by the Swansea players. We directly used running to form suppression.

Swansea uses pass control and actively runs at home. Most of the time, he takes the initiative on the field. Liverpool players who are not in the best form have no way to limit the opponent's attack.

Liverpool, who had not conceded a goal in the previous three league games, were scored twice in this game under Swansea's continuous attack. This is the case when Yang Feng and Mignolet have dedicated a very good defensive performance.

It's just helpless, Liverpool's defensive loopholes in the front field in this game are really too many. No matter how strong Yang Feng and Mignolet are, it is impossible to control all the empty positions in the stadium and in front of the goal.

In just 3 minutes of the opening, Liverpool was beaten by the old player Shelvey.

After Schervey intercepted the ball in midfield, his long-range long-range shot made a great contribution to Swansea's opening lead.

In the subsequent game, although Liverpool wanted to launch an offense, it was suppressed by Swansea at home.

In the 33rd minute of the first half, Michu, who came from Swansea's low-priced "Taobao", used his off-the-ball running, interspersed into the penalty area, and directly received a through ball from his teammate. West expanded the score.

Liverpool, which was behind by two goals, just woke up after a half-time break and began to want to use its offensive system in the game to seek suppression.

In the opening phase of the second half, Sturridge seized the chance of a missed pass by Shervey, single-handedly entered the penalty area, pushed successfully, and scored a goal for the team.

And Sturridge, who has scored four consecutive games, has also become the first player in Liverpool's Premier League era to score four consecutive games during the opening season.

After that, Liverpool's attack was stubbornly blocked by Swansea, unable to create further opportunities.

Fortunately, Rogers’ substitution was timely, and Moses, who was loaned from Chelsea, replaced Henderson, who had not performed well in this game.

This substitution was considered Rogers' excellent adjustment ability after the game.

Compared with the Swansea players who rely on the close defense of the lineup and the personal athletic ability is not good enough, Moses, a player who relies solely on his personal ability to occupy a place in the football, has a strong personal breakthrough ability.

Although Moses's solo style of play is a kind of destruction to the team's overall offensive tactics, for Liverpool, what is needed at this time is immediate combat power and offensive players who can create threats.

Moses relied on his personal ability ~lightnovelpub.net~ to break through on the right to create a very good offensive effect. Relying on Moses' personal breakthrough, Liverpool's wing attack came alive.

With Moses' breakthrough, a single-point blast on the field was completed, and Liverpool successfully created an opportunity on the right.

After Moses completed the wing alone, he forced a breakthrough into the penalty area and completed a kick before the Swansea player could fill up the defense.

Although this kind of pure personal hero ball does not conform to Liverpool's current offensive philosophy, the goal that can equalize the score is more important than anything when falling behind.

The final score was fixed at 2 to 2, Liverpool's away game scored 1 point, still occupying the top spot in the Premier League.

Fortunately, the Liverpool players have excellent adjustment ability. After being tied by Swansea in the away game, Rogers also specially gave the players a day of vacation, so that the players can have a good rest and let the players relax for a day. In order to relieve the physical and mental fatigue of the national team after the game.

And the task of Liverpool's game in the middle of the week, of course, is the start of the new UEFA Champions League season.

Suarez, who was banned within the British competition, was finally able to play in the Champions League this season to complete his season debut.
