Football’s First Defender

Chapter 588: Liverpool Blitz

   The devil is halfway through the schedule. After facing Barcelona and Chelsea one after another, Liverpool only has mid-week remaining in the three games, the most critical game, the home game against Barcelona.

  The bad news is that Liverpool’s entire defense line has gone through two high-intensity battles, and many people have been exhausted.

   The good news is, after all, Liverpool's two games are mainly defensive.

   Offensive players are basically on standby on the bench. Now they have plenty of physical energy and can contribute their strength in the second round against Barcelona.

   Regardless of the result of the first round away game against the Nou Camp, after playing the "grandson" twice, they finally returned to Liverpool at Anfield Stadium. Naturally, they have to use offense to regain the face lost in the two away games.

   One goal behind in the first leg and no away goal is Liverpool's biggest disadvantage at this time.

   Either the same 1-0 score, in return for Barcelona, ​​the two sides entered a more brutal overtime game, or even a penalty shootout.

   Either Liverpool strives to win the advantage of more than two goals, and then directly advance within 90 minutes.

   Since you can defeat Universe Ren at home, it is not an impossible task to continue to work hard at the terrifying Anfield home court to defeat Universe Sa.

   After 541 in two consecutive games, returning to Anfield Stadium, Liverpool finally came up with the most commonly used offensive formation this season, 433!

   Sturridge, Sterling, Coutinho lead Liverpool's offensive line.

   In the midfield, Henderson, Lallana, and Emre Can are all very energetic young talents. They can use active running to form good effects on both ends of the offense and defense.

   There were assists from Flanagan and Moreno on both sides.

   For Liverpool, attacking must be the first priority in their home court.

   They must fight hard, defeat Barcelona directly, and get the right to advance.

   "This is Anfield!"

   When Liverpool face their opponents on this field, they will be fearless.

Even if there is no away goal, even with a goal behind, but when the game began, when Liverpool began to attack, they had forgotten all the disadvantages. There was only one thought in their mind, that is, to beat the front. Opponents, defeat them and complete the promotion.

   "Liverpool changed the defensive style of the last two games and launched an aggressive offense at the beginning of today's game!"

   "We can see that Liverpool, at home, used Sterling's speed forcibly at the beginning of the game to find a break from the side."

   "Sirling's personal strength has grown rapidly. Now facing many world-class defensive players, he also appears to be comfortable on the offensive end, and he can achieve quite an offensive effect."

   This time, in the face of Alba's defense, Sterling succeeded, directly relying on his good physical ability to fight, ran over half of his body, and got the opportunity to make a pass on the right.

   "Cross!"

   "It is Sturridge who followed up in the middle!"

   "Header!"

   "Blocked by Ter Stegen!"

   In the first wave of offensive, Liverpool completed the goal.

   Sturridge, who followed up in the middle, used his own move without the ball, slant forward, Pique took a step first, reached the point where Sterling passed the ball, and completed this header rush.

   It’s just that Ter Stegen’s response was quick. In his position, he had already considered the situation that Sturridge might complete the shot. This time the save was a bit thrilling, but there was no real threat.

   However, what Liverpool, who sits at home, wants to show is not just the offensive in the opening game, but the continuous attack to show his determination to reverse the promotion in this game.

   It is not only Sterling who exerts his strength alone, but the entire Liverpool offensive team has invested a lot of energy and physical strength in the attack.

   is to break the deadlock early and get the score back first.

   Wide players break through and create a passing threat, while a group of players in the center can either deliver passes to forward players or create a certain offensive threat by themselves.

  Especially the peripheral long shots, can also play a deterrent effect.

   "Henderson's long-range shot! It's a minute!"

   "Henderson's long-range shot took a strong inswing arc and almost flew out of the bottom line against the post. Ter Stegen, who had not made a save action, must feel scared now."

  …………

   "It's Sterling again, a strong jump on the right, an emergency stop, and he shook Alba, who was following him."

   Sterling is strong in his speed advantage, and his outstanding speed makes him have the potential to become a world-class side laner.

   But he is not only satisfied with the pinnacle of a wide player, he also uses the most hard training to strengthen his all-round ability and strive to become better.

   On the basis of exerting his own speed, enhancing his ability to combine the ball is the one that Sterling consulted Coutinho the most and also trained the most in private training.

In this kind of flank, open the posture and advance at full speed, and then make a sudden stop, shake Alba, the strength of the footsteps, the angle of the body tilt, how to make movements faster and better, and to avoid injuries, Sterling It took countless trainings to reach the point where it is now easy to complete such an offense.

   "Take the ball into the Barcelona penalty area!"

   "Pique makes up for it."

  " Sterling passed the ball in a reverse triangle~lightnovelpub.net~ Lallana followed in the middle."

   "A dexterous smash, avoiding Busquets' defense, and then a horizontal pull, after swinging a larger shot angle, the left foot completes the volley!"

   Sterling and Lallana's pass cooperated. After receiving the ball, Lallana jumped up a beautiful waltz within the penalty area of ​​Barcelona.

   And with the final kick, Lallana has achieved his best.

   Ter Stegen flew to save, but facing Lallana this time, with excellent angle and strength, Ter Stegen was still unable to defend the goal that was several meters wide.

   While he was still in the air and stretched his body, the ball had rubbed the left post and flew into the goal.

   "GOAL!!!"

   "The ball is in!"

   "Lallana!"

   "Help Liverpool get a 1-0 lead!"

   "and helped Liverpool tie the big score!"

   Liverpool’s continuous offensive has achieved very good results.

   After only 16 minutes of the game, Lallana scored for Liverpool.

   The fast-paced and unreasonable offensive style of the Premier League. With continuous attacking attacks, Liverpool finally broke Barcelona's defense and scored directly relying on Lallana's wonderful performance.
