Football’s First Defender

Chapter 492: Liverpool's scum defense

Yang Feng's header at the end of the game helped Liverpool directly equalize the score.

The 2 to 2 draw was absolutely unacceptable for Chelsea, who led most of the game.

Mourinho was also helpless. The team did nothing wrong in defense. Although David Luiz was a little bit reckless in his attack, it did not matter if someone stepped forward to block him temporarily.

At Yang Feng, there was still someone marking the defense, and there was no leakage in the defense.

However, I didn't expect that Cahill actually occupied an absolute disadvantage in the 1v1 duel with Yang Feng, and was completely defeated by Yang Feng in this attack.

Moreover, Yang Feng not only defeated Cahill directly, but the beautiful header that followed was successfully passed Chelsea’s defensive defense, which is the most stable Cech. A small parabola directly fell into the dead corner of the goal. There is no way for Cech.

After Liverpool evened the score, Chelsea also thought about seizing the last bit of time to achieve an offensive effect, but Liverpool used a more fierce press to show that they still have expectations of a reversal.

In the end, the two sides fought fiercely in the midfield in the last few minutes, and no one was able to create a threatening attack. The score of 2 to 2 was maintained until halftime.

In this game, Yang Feng, who returned to his old club as a guest, gave the old club a "double gun" gift, and Chelsea suffered another blow from the old minister.

Although Liverpool’s two consecutive games after Christmas were just a draw.

But everyone's expectations for Liverpool's championship this season have not diminished, and even increased.

You know, within 3 days, two consecutive away games, facing the third and fourth in the Premier League respectively, and Liverpool's two tie record, in such an away giants civil war, is quite good.

Although the lead in the standings has been further reduced, Liverpool still retains the leading position after two fierce battles at the end of the month. It can be said that Liverpool has completed its year-end goal.

After the rest of the game, Liverpool is fighting for victory when facing some weaker opponents, while waiting for other teammates to start making mistakes.

In the first battle of the new year, Liverpool, who had been trained for 3 days, faced the visiting city of Hull.

Hull City's record this season ranked mid-range and belonged to a worry-free team. In the face of Liverpool, which desperately needed points to "stop the decadence", Hull City surrendered in the away game quite interestingly.

Liverpool scored a long-range shot by Coutinho early, and after a walk of a group of Hull City players, Liverpool relied on Suarez and Henderson's counterattack goals to close the game early 3-0.

However, after this game, Rogers was not too happy.

"How is Yang Feng's injury?"

"As judged in the game, it is not a ligament and Achilles tendon problem, but a laceration of the thigh muscle. It should be caused by fatigue from multiple consecutive games. To be safe, you should rest for 4 to 6 weeks."

"4-6 weeks? The team cannot do without Yang Feng..."

In the battle against Hull City, Yang Feng was directly replaced when the first half of the game lasted more than 30 minutes.

In a counterattack against Hull City, Yang Feng activated it and felt the discomfort of his thigh muscles. Although enduring the pain, he forced the ball out, but afterwards, Yang Feng fell to the ground and waited for the team doctor's examination.

Fortunately, it was just a muscle tear in the end. Even after one and a half months of training, for Liverpool, it is better than Yang Feng's direct season reimbursement.

In the month and a half of the schedule, Liverpool did not have any strong opponents, and until Yang Feng returned, Rogers only hoped that the team's offensive during this period can be strong.

In the FA Cup game that started after the New Year, Liverpool faced Oldham, the English second team, and sent a youth team plus substitute players to get a 2-0 victory to advance to the next round.

For Rogers, the FA Cup victory does not make him too concerned. Anyway, Rogers will not send the main players and rotation players at this time to waste the players' physical energy in such "useless" matches.

After the New Year, Liverpool’s main players took a full two weeks of rest before they had a game that needed them to play.

In the 21st round of the league, Liverpool challenged Stoke City away.

Although the reform of Stoke's team's tactical style is not successful, some of them are not like four, but they have lost the charm of the "city in the sky".

But Stoke's home record is pretty good.

It is true that not many games have been won, but 10 home games are just a loss.

Its strong home court defeated Chelsea 3-2, drew Manchester City 0-0, and drew Everton 1-1, who now ranks fifth in the league. It can be said that when the home game was against the giants, Stoke City Can be offensive and defensive, has always performed quite well.

Faced with Liverpool, which is full of wounded soldiers, Stoke City has no idea of ​​giving Liverpool a victory.

Not only did Yang Feng have been added to Liverpool’s injury list, Flanagan also had muscle strains during training two days before the game. So today, Liverpool’s defense can only send Sissoko and Glenn. Johnson partnered with the left and right full backs, while the center back was Colo Touré partnered by Scotter.

It can only be said that Liverpool's defense line, after the lack of Yang Feng, visually felt that the defense is going to drop by a level.

The midfielder returned due to Gerrard's injury and replaced Joe Allen. The rest of the starters remained unchanged from previous games.

Although Sturridge reported to be returning from injury before the game, he did not appear on the squad in the end of the game.

Although Liverpool's defense line lacks Yang Feng, many people will definitely worry about it, but Liverpool's offense is the first to bear fruit~lightnovelpub.net~ can make many Red Army fans hopeful for the victory of the game.

In the 4th minute of the game, Sterling crossed from the right and was cleared by the home team center back with a header.

Sissoko, who was outside the penalty area, faced the ball and directly completed a volley.

The ball hits the defensive player in the home team's penalty area and directly completes the change.

The shot that hit the right, flew to the left after the broken line, and the goalkeeper who had already made a save was thrown out.

With the opponent's own goal, Liverpool took the lead away.

Stoke City, which is playing at home, naturally won't catch it all. The team attacked and wanted to find a place at home.

For Liverpool, due to Yang Feng's injury, the team had to increase their defensive investment.

Although somewhat unlike the recent style, Liverpool can only play a more secure defensive counterattack.

The counterattack was indeed effective. In the 32nd minute, Suarez received a long pass from Gerrard's backcourt and dunked the Stoke City defender. The goalkeeper wicket succeeded and extended the score to 2-0 for Liverpool. .

Just when many people thought that this would be the end of a big victory for Liverpool, Liverpool lacked Yang Feng, and the scum on the field began to dig holes for the team.

In the last stage of the first half, Crouch, the "high guy", was emptied near the penalty spot by Kolo Toure, received a cross from the side, and finished the header.

Then it was Charlie Adam. In the last minute of the half-time game, Crouch got the ball in the penalty area and completed a low shot from the penalty area line, which penetrated Mignole's ten fingers.

2 to 2!

Liverpool lost two goals in 5 minutes and lost Yang Feng. Liverpool's scum defense instantly ruined his lead.
