Football’s First Defender

Chapter 560: Poor "foot hair" into the top 8

Defeated Tottenham in the league and continued to compete with Chelsea for the league title this season.

Also this season, the "greedy" Liverpool, the Champions League, which was listed as the goal of the championship, also started as scheduled.

Although the team is only the second line of the group, but thanks to the luck that Liverpool has accumulated over the years, they play at the critical moment.

In the match against the top sixteen, Liverpool was lucky enough to drew the "big gift package" recognized as the first in the group-the "black shop" Porto of the Portuguese Super League. Porto has always been pursuing the cultivation of youth demon and semi-finished players, and then relying on the players’ data in the league, or the players’ impressive performance in the Champions League, to sell players and recover. Financial return.

As for the pursuit of performance, Porto's performance in the Champions League is not so much for honor, as for the team to achieve better results, with more bonuses.

Due to the early strategic abandonment in the FA Cup, Liverpool was given a week of rest after a battle with Tottenham to recover their physical fitness and prepare for the home game against Porto. Facts have proved that in the group stage, Porto relied on the hard power of the players in the team, as well as a correct attitude to the game, still able to kill the Quartet and qualify for promotion.

But in the knockout stage, when they directly encountered European giants, Porto's mercenary-like nature restricted them and their room for further development.

The team does not have a stable lineup all the year round, relying on the combat power formed by the accumulation of talents, in dealing with the Portuguese Super League, or the Champions League group stage, there is still a battle.

But when it comes to a tough battle, especially in the away game, Porto's strength will become extremely limited.

Just like this game against Liverpool, who are in good shape these days. In the away game, Porto has no power at all.

Liverpool fully demonstrated their recent outstanding offensive firepower at Anfield.

Especially Sturridge, who had just returned from injury, quickly entered the game state and seamlessly connected with this Liverpool midfielder. At the beginning of the game, relying on his excellent personal strength to score an extremely strong goal. Ball, announcing his return.

Sturridge was on the right side of the penalty area. After receiving a pass from Coutinho, after unloading the ball, he immediately took a volley and shot a wonderful kick before the kop stand. Unparalleled hitting the door.

The Porto goalkeeper was caught off guard, so Sturridge blasted the goal in less than 5 minutes at the beginning of the game.

The game after that was more like a show of Liverpool's offensive ability.

A guest came to Porto at Anfield and wanted to organize a certain counterattack. However, with Liverpool's frontcourt oppressing and pressing, there was no good attacking opportunity at all.

Rarely organized offense, the Porto forwards who rely on the weak team in the league and brush out scoring data directly exposed the essence when facing Yang Feng's defense.

For these famous forwards who are not in the top five leagues, Yang Feng is very easy to defend. To deal with such a simple and tall forward, but has not yet developed enough flexibility, Yang Feng's experience in the Premier League has been very effective.

Worry-free from the rear, allowing Liverpool to devote more energy to the attack.

The tight schedule makes Liverpool have no idea of ​​seeking stability after taking the lead. Liverpool's goal is very simple, striving to completely secure the victory in the first leg at Anfield, so as to retain strength for the tight schedule later.

You know, although the previous victory over Tottenham, the "civil war" between the six Premier League giants has never been so easy to win.

The schedule after Liverpool will not only play against Tottenham in the English League Cup final, compete for the championship trophy, but also face the old rival Manchester City in the league that follows.

These games are not to be missed for Liverpool, who is eager for honor, so if the suspense of the series with Porto can be resolved in one round, then it will be extremely beneficial for Liverpool's physical distribution and multi-line combat. of.

Therefore, Liverpool's aggressive attack is still going on. Porto, in the case of unsuccessful offensive attempts, wants to rely on defense to bring the suspense of the game back to its own Dragon Stadium.

It's just that Liverpool's offensive wave after wave, especially in Liverpool, the degree of confrontation in the Premier League makes the Porto players who are used to playing the relaxed pace of the Portuguese Super League very uncomfortable.

The continuous impact, especially the wing on the right side of Sterling and Flanagan's continuous sprint attack mode, finally smashed Porto, which was not a good defense, directly.

Sterling and Flanagan's wing 2v2, when Sterling has already sprinted for a wave, when Flanagan reconnected, the opponent's follow-up speed was obviously slower.

Sterling's through ball passed accurately in front of Flanagan, allowing Flanagan to sprint at full speed, and when he got the ball, he already had an advantage in position.

After that, a pass from the moving wing, Flanagan passed the ball accurately into the small penalty area of ​​Porto.

Sturridge attracted the opponent's defensive attention at the front point, while Henderson's fast forward thrust, took off directly, and after following up in the middle, forced the defensive player to swing his head to attack the goal.

Helped Liverpool expand the score in the 27th minute of the game.

And Liverpool, which became more relaxed, continued to invest a lot of force on the offensive end to launch the siege of Porto.

Although the Porto goalkeeper, in the subsequent game, resisted, helped Porto to keep the 0-2 score barely until the halftime ~lightnovelpub.net~ But as soon as the second half of the game began, Liverpool's offense gained another reward Great results.

Liverpool's first corner kick in the second half.

Yang Feng took advantage of his teammate's first start to attract the attention of his opponent, and then took control, 1v1 forcibly got rid of the Porto defender who was marking him, and got the opportunity to take off and attack in the penalty area.

Coutinho's passing is very accurate, and Yang Feng's own head swing attack, the angle of the goal is also very well controlled.

3 to 0!

With Yang Feng's header, Liverpool continued to expand the score.

The outcome of this game has lost its suspense, and even the two rounds of the game seem to have lost its suspense.

However, when other players think that the three-goal lead is stable enough, Yang Feng, who has seen various Champions League reversals in later generations, dare not care.

It's just 3 goals, it's still not safe enough.

Although other Liverpool offensive players have begun to relax, Yang Feng himself is still extremely tight.

Today, Liverpool’s huge repressive force in the frontcourt provides Yang Feng with many opportunities to participate in the attack.

In the 78th minute of the game, there was another free kick opportunity for Liverpool in the front court. Yang Feng, who participated in the attack, took the lead after Gerrard delivered the ball and took the lead in the outside road, tacitly chasing the back point of Gerrard's pass. .

Then the headed goal during the marching, the ball was pushed into the near post.

4 to 0! Yang Feng even scored twice with a header in the Champions League knockout.

Yang Feng, who played well in the offensive end, led Liverpool to a 4-0 home victory over visiting Porto. It can be said that he is only one foot away from the "feather" of the foot and he has entered the Champions League quarter-finals...
