Chapter 490: Take us to the Champions League once!

In April 20th, Liverpool, small to moderate rain.

Before the game, it was already misty, and the rain became heavier during the game. [Search for the latest updates at

But the rain couldn't stop the almost crazy enthusiasm of the KOPs in the stands of Anfield Stadium.

Mourinho continued his Mourinho style, and the game was as dull as ever. Chelsea continued their meat grinder-style tactics. The difference is that Mourinho played in several positions. After the rotation, Tiago, Gremi, Mutu and other players all got the opportunity to start.

From the perspective of platoon formation, it is difficult to say whether Mourinho has given up this matchup, but from the actual combat effect, the Blues really cannot compare with Liverpool with strong morale, they can only passively Unfold defensive tactics.

In just 7 minutes of the opening, Liverpool took advantage of a foul caused by Ashavin ’s breakthrough on the right and got a chance to set the ball in the frontcourt. The Russian Czar personally took the free kick. Vidic nodded a header to break the field for Liverpool. Deadlock.

Afterwards, the Reds continued to pursue Chelsea in a fierce pursuit. The Blues organized an effective defense in their hinterland. Although they did not do a good job on offense, they still performed well in defense. Coupled with the wet grass on rainy days, Liverpool's own mistakes are also many, the first half ended in 1: 0.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides, and Liverpool continued to maintain the offensive pressure on Chelsea, especially Larson, who frequently created threats in Chelsea's penalty area, or hit his own goal, or passed the ball to his teammates. The Swedish striker was very eye-catching. And, in the 62nd minute, he went to the next city and expanded the score to 2: 0.

After conceding two goals in a row, Mourinho replaced Robert Muthu with a mediocre performance, further strengthening the back line, Liverpool also made substitution adjustments, and Kuyt replaced Larsson. , Leiden Barnes replaced Lisse, and Ara Diarra replaced Gerrard.

After consecutive substitutions, neither side continued to further strengthen the offensive trend, coupled with the rain getting bigger and bigger, the final score was locked to 2: 0, Liverpool successfully reduced the points gap with Chelsea to 2 points, and also completed A feat of killing Chelsea five times a season.

Yang Cheng was standing on the side of the field, under the rain. He did not have the joy of five Chelsea kills. On the contrary, he was somewhat worried.

"He made it clear that he had given up this game!" Benitez said with a frown.

Although Mourinho did not say it, anyone with eyes can see that at least he did not do his best in this game.

Yang Cheng nodded, "He is preparing to play against Manchester United in 2 days!"

That can be said to be the last roadblock in front of Chelsea. The remaining few teams, it is difficult to stop the Blues.

Mourinho's abacus is not bad. My main lineup has been in a double-line battle for a month. I have been tired for a long time. I used to die for the cup, but now I have a 5 point advantage in the league. In hand, losing one, I still have 2 points, as long as I win Manchester United and the remaining few games, I will still win the championship.

In this game, even if Chelsea did their best to play, the odds of victory are still very small. After all, four kills in a season, the psychological shadow is definitely there, and it is very large. The fifth encounter, the Blues are also in a disadvantageous situation.

Since the odds are not great, I might as well choose a bigger way to win the championship.

Between the 34th and 35th rounds of the league, there was a difference of 2 days, so Mourinho chose the last part of the bench, leaving the core force to play Manchester United, and strive to win other games. From this point of view, his fight Crown strategy is wise.

Yang Cheng and Benitez glanced at each other and couldn't help but shook their heads bitterly.

The league champion is getting farther and farther from Liverpool!

At present, Chelsea have 79 points and Liverpool have 77 points. If both sides finally score the remaining 5 games, then there is no doubt that Chelsea will accumulate 94 points, breaking the Premier League points record, and Liverpool will also become the most tragic Premier League. The runner-up in the league, because of their score of 92 points, has been put into other seasons, and it has already won the championship score.

Moreover, the number of goals scored by Liverpool this season is likely to break the record of the Premier League, which will undoubtedly make Liverpool ’s sadness more intense, but Chelsea ’s defense is destined to break the record, counting Liverpool ’s game in this game. With two goals, Chelsea have conceded 15 goals this season, the lowest in Premier League history.

I have to admit that this Chelsea is really a headache!

"We should adjust the center of gravity!" Yang Cheng said.

Since the chances of winning the league are small, Liverpool should choose the wise choice rather than continue to struggle.

Of course, bias does not mean giving up. With Yang Cheng's character, he will definitely chase Chelsea poorly, and it is impossible to give up in advance.

What he said is that after playing Crystal Palace in London on the 23rd, he will go away to challenge AC Milan on the 26th, and Liverpool have been in a week of double matches for more than a month. Even if Yang Cheng ’s rotation is going well, in order to ensure Results, the physical fitness of some key players have almost reached the limit.

In this situation (the latest chapter of the martial universe, www.81zw.com), he should consider resting some players in the league.

"Although I have to admit that Chelsea still take the initiative in the competition for the championship, but we will not give up. All my players and I have experienced a difficult season. We finally came to this day and we will insist In the end, we will take all the remaining games and wait for Chelsea to make mistakes. "

At the press conference after the game, Yang Cheng frankly expressed his thoughts.

For this, Mourinho has a different view.

"I don't think we have the initiative in winning the championship. We just experienced a nightmarish schedule and then ushered in Manchester United again. This is simply the devil. This is a great test of our will. Everyone must be Players are awakening the spirit of 120,000 points, and go all out to make it possible to break a blood. "

It can be seen that after experiencing the nightmare of five killings by Liverpool, Mourinho was afraid to continue his madman's character for at least a short period of time. After all, after experiencing this round of nightmare, Chelsea's energy was inevitably weakened. Many, if you continue to do this, it is very likely to cause the team to morale.

When asked about the reporters, when he thought of Yang Cheng and Liverpool, Mourinho praised a few expressions politely, but his coffin face did not look like it was boasting, expressionless, Very mechanical.

It's no wonder that Yang Cheng and Liverpool were killed five times in a season, even if they won the championship, I'm afraid it might not be mentioned.

On the contrary, it was Yang Cheng. When asked about the upcoming game against AC Milan, the Liverpool coach said with a smile that he was confident that he could lead the team to the final.

"Ancelotti and I are old acquaintances, I believe this should help us beat AC Milan!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

Many reporters are unspoken, because in Serie A, Yang Cheng was already a nightmare in Ancelotti ’s heart. Now that he has come to the Premier League, the coaching team has changed from Inter Milan to AC Milan. Continue to beat Ancelotti, this is the focus of everyone's attention.

And what is interesting is that AC Milan eliminated the blue and black dynasty created by Yang Cheng, which made many Inter Milan fans hope that Yang Cheng could avenge their hatred and kill AC Milan.

But it's easy to talk about, but it's not easy to do.

AC Milan played well this season, and it looks very balanced. The combination of Carraze, Maldini, Stam and Cafu on the back line is both offensive and defensive. Gattuso, Ambrosini and Rui Kos The combination of Tower, Kaka and Seedorf, plus a nuclear bomb in front of Shevchenko.

This lineup is indeed very strong and balanced. Without Pirlo of the previous life, Rui Costa retreated to the deeper midfield area to play his organizational ability, and Kaka was charged in the front waist position. Shevchenko is responsible for attacking the city, Seedorf is more like a lubricant, and Gattuso and Ambrosini are responsible for defense and protection.

So although this season's Nerazzurri lags behind Juventus and Inter Milan in Serie A, their play is highly respected by fans.

In the face of such a lineup, Liverpool really has no advantage at all. There are many talented stars in the future, but that is the future. Now Ronaldinho and Robben are temporarily unable to compete with Seedorf, Shevchenko and others. The latter is more experienced.

In the Champions League game, the more to the end, the more crucial moments, the more important the experience.

This is why so many people say that the Champions League final is a game that is completely independent of the season, because the atmosphere, the tension, the suffocating pressure are enough to let any team The team collapsed, especially the young team with little experience.

Yang Cheng will coach in this area, but Liverpool players are too young and inexperienced. The more they go forward, the more they will be exposed, especially when they encounter the experienced Serie A teams such as AC Milan and Juventus. .

…………

Walking out of the press conference hall, the fans at Anfield Stadium have already ended.

When passing through the passage, I saw the staff sorting the turf and carrying out post-match maintenance work.

The maintenance of a modern stadium is very important. It must be very professional. In this respect, the Premier League has done better than other leagues, because the home management and maintenance of the Premier League is the most advanced in Europe.

Perhaps this is because their home courts are all private property belonging to the club.

But when Yang Cheng was about to go to the office to find Rick Parry, he saw Gerrard leaning over and sitting on the stands of the Anfield Stadium, with his legs on the front seats, eyes Looked at the busy staff in a daze ahead.

"It's late, are you ready to go back?" Yang Cheng came out of the passage with a smile.

Gerrard looked up, saw Yang Cheng, and immediately smiled, "Wait a second."

Yang Cheng came to him and sat down across the aisle.

The empty Anfield stadium stands with only two of them left. Below is the motion made by the busy stadium administrator. The music on the stadium's radio has been turned off. It is quiet, don't have a taste.

"We used to dream about going to Anfield Stadium to watch football, especially in European events. Many people are going crazy for a ticket. At that time, only the championship team can participate in the Champions League." Gerrard laughed Said.

He was talking about the Champions League before the restructuring, especially in the 1980s, which was Liverpool's most glorious era.

"This is the closest team to the Champions League since I was sensible!" Gerrard sighed deeply, looking excited, "Boss, take us to the Champions League!"

"Is it difficult?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.

Gerald couldn't help laughing when he thought of his boss having three Champions League hands, but soon became serious again, "For many and many of our KOPs, it is our lifetime to get a Champions League pursue!"

Yang Cheng understands that many Liverpool fans are still eager to recover the glory and dominance of the Liverpool dynasty.

"I will do everything in my power to help you achieve this wish!"

Gerrard nodded. He knew Yang Cheng's character and knew Yang Cheng's personality, so he didn't doubt it at all. "I will do everything I can to fight alongside you, not just me, I believe all All Liverpool people will do this! "

After a pause, Gerrard looked up and looked at the ceiling of Anfield Stadium, which had been largely extinguished. His mouth was more like muttering, "This year is different from previous years!"

As long as they are Liverpool fans, they all know why they are different.

In 1985, the Heather tragedy case, since then, Liverpool disappeared in the Champions League final, now in 2005, which happens to be the 20th anniversary of the Heather tragedy case. If Liverpool can reach the final, the opponent happens to be Juventus. Sri Lanka.

This is like a reincarnation, a reincarnation after 20 years of vicissitudes, 20 years of suffering, 20 years of torture, and 20 years of anticipation.

"Relax, we will appear in Istanbul and face our opponent Juventus directly!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

Gerrard nodded, "That must be awesome, I will try my best to kill them, I must let them pay the painful price for the debt of that year, and ask them to repay their blood!"

This should be the expectation of all Liverpool people.

Yang Cheng just smiled slightly, "Don't think about the finals first, when you play against the Crystal Palace, you rest, take good care of AC Milan, be careful, you can't get a yellow card anymore!

Gerald has already received three yellow cards in the group stage and has been suspended. Then he won a yellow card in the knockout. As long as he gets one more, it is a suspension.

As Yang Cheng said before, Gerrard is of extraordinary importance to Liverpool. He can bring stability to Liverpool ’s midfield. He is also the team captain and the team ’s spiritual pillar. He exists. Only when Yang Cheng plays AC Milan will he be more confident.

"Relax, boss, I have always been careful!" Gerrard replied with a smile.

"That's good!" Yang Cheng said with a smile. "Go back and get a good night's sleep. Think about how to get to Juventus in Istanbul!"

"Can you choose a penalty shootout?" Gerrard asked with a smile.

Juventus killed Liverpool only with Pratini ’s penalty, and then Pratini celebrated after scoring. There was no sympathy at the time of the Heather tragedy. It is also the reason why countless KOP hate him.

Many fans who don't understand the situation (the latest chapter of the martial arts chapter www.81zw.com) find it strange that Liverpool are defending themselves. Otherwise, why are the two major tragedies related to Liverpool?

As everyone knows, the two times are actually related.

Football hooligans, this is impossible for any team to put an end to it. Who dares to say that there are no football hooligans?

But at the time of the game in Heather, UEFA did not completely separate the Juventus and Liverpool fans in the neutral stand area. It is conceivable that when these two groups of enemies are mixed together, the result will be How is it?

This can be compared with the fact that all the teams at home are now close to the enemy, and the fans of the two teams can be compared. Whose mistake is this?

UEFA shirked responsibility to football hooligans and Liverpool, creating the impression that football hooligans triggered the Heather tragedy. Then the British government began a series of measures and rectifications, including the establishment of barbed wire on the stadium Wait, at the same time, they also regard the fans as internal enemies, and among the British fans, Liverpool fans are the most fanatical, because Liverpool's economy was depressed and there were many unemployed people, but football was at its peak and became The symbol of the city of Liverpool, coupled with the unique atmosphere of the city, so Liverpool fans are particularly prone to disputes.

Therefore, in the Hillsborough massacre, the stadium entrance was closed early, and many Liverpool fans with tickets were unable to enter. They did not reopen until the game began. At this time, the game had already begun, and fans were anxious to enter. But no one guided and organized them.

Whose responsibility is this? Is it a fan?

It can be said that if there is no Heather tragedy, the Hillsborough tragedy will not happen.

Of course, it is precisely because of these two **** tragedies that people from all walks of life are paying attention to the safety of the stadium. This has led to improvements in full seats and stadium security. This is a positive aspect.

But for Liverpool, they have taken on too many sins that they should not have borne.

With this understanding, Yang Cheng told Gerrard that he wanted Juventus to take a penalty shootout.

"Think about it!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

Gerrard also laughed.

"Let's go, it's late, go back and rest early!" Yang Cheng stood up.

Gerald also stood up with him, and he was very convinced of Yang Cheng.

But Yang Cheng said so, but in fact he knows better than anyone. It is difficult to beat AC Milan to the finals. Once in the finals, it is more difficult to defeat Juventus.

In the final analysis, Liverpool's strength has not reached the point of seeing who will destroy who, especially considering the lack of team experience, coupled with the overall younger and younger, which will put Liverpool in a very disadvantageous position in dealing with this major game. position.

Really don't say, it was really guessed by Yang Cheng.

After a 0-1 away victory over Crystal Palace, Liverpool went to the San Siro stadium to challenge AC Milan, but they brought back a 0: 1 defeat from Italy.

The reason for conceding the ball was that a low-level mistake by Reina directly buried the away draw.
