Chapter 385 Turning Against the Wind (Part 1)

Immediately after the start of the game, Liverpool launched an offensive at the Bernabeu.

Liverpool is currently behind in the score, and if they want to advance, they must attack.

And the importance of conceding goals is not high for Liverpool for the time being.

With the current score, Liverpool must score at least two goals to talk about a reversal.

If you score two goals without conceding a goal, you will win 2:0, and you will be able to directly eliminate your opponent and advance.

If a goal is conceded, it will be a 2:1 win. The total score and away goals of the two rounds are all tied, and the two sides will play in overtime.

Therefore, Liverpool's current situation is that it is necessary to score two goals, and it is acceptable to concede one goal. Of course, it is necessary to attack with all its strength.

Rogers made this point clear to everyone in the locker room before the game.

In the 4th minute of the opening, Li Chenglong sent an inverted triangle back pass from the right. Gerrard met the ball from the front of the penalty area and took a long shot, but failed to make a threat.

Two minutes later, Real Madrid immediately responded. Ronaldo sent a pick pass in a similar position, and Benzema headed the goal in the penalty area, which was also not threatening.

The performance of the two teams in the opening few minutes basically set the tone for this game. Liverpool attacked with all their strength, while Real Madrid responded with their best defensive counterattack.

In the 9th minute, Liverpool missed a good opportunity. Coutinho sent a cross from the left. Lee Chenglong faced the incoming ball with a smart miss, allowing Sterling near the penalty spot in the middle to pass without interference. hit the door.

But the guy went a little too far and kicked the ball into the stands.

"Bastard!!" Missing this opportunity, Rogers on the sidelines also cursed angrily.

In a stadium like the Bernabeu, facing a giant like Real Madrid, every opportunity is hard-won and needs to be seized as much as possible.

"Boy, don't be too nervous." Feeling that Sterling seemed a little too nervous, Li Chenglong even went over to touch his tight head.

But three minutes after this wasted opportunity, Rodgers began to cheer for him.

In the 12th minute, Sterling received a pass from Lallana in the frontcourt and dribbled past Varane with the ball.

Finished the goal in the penalty area.

The quality of this kick is quite high, and it basically goes to the dead corner of the lower left corner of the left goal.

Casillas, however, made a fine save, flying over and flicking the ball out with his fingertips.

But the ball pulled out by the fingertip did not fly directly out of the baseline, but rolled slowly along the baseline towards the corner flag area.

At this time, Li Chenglong rushed to the horse, rushed to the bottom line to get the ball, and directly kicked the goal, a tiptoe shot.

The ball flew past the side of Marcelo who was rushing to block, passed over the head of Casillas who was getting up, flew directly into the end of the far post, and hit the side netting.

"Goooooooooooal~~~~~~~~~~~" England commentator shouted a long roar.

"Bruce~~~~Super Bruce~~~~ He scored a goal!!!"

"It was a beautiful goal, a lob shot from almost zero angle, and Bruce took the opportunity."

"Sterling's breakthrough shot caused chaos in Real Madrid's defense, and then Bruce actively rushed to get the ball near the bottom line. He made the most correct choice and scored with a light shot. He opened the scoring for Liverpool."

"Also, this is Bruce's 10th goal in the Champions League this season. He has climbed to the top of the Champions League scorer list and tied for first place with Messi."

After Jackie Lee scored a goal, a small number of away Liverpool fans in the stands cheered excitedly, and Rodgers also threw his fists in celebration.

The goal was scored in the opening 12 minutes. This was a perfect start, giving Liverpool the hope of a comeback.

However, Li Chenglong, who scored the goal, did not celebrate, but rushed into the goal, picked up the ball and ran back.

At present, although Liverpool has tied the total score of the two rounds to a 2:2 tie, Real Madrid still has an away goal advantage.

If the score is maintained until the end, then Real Madrid will advance and Liverpool will be eliminated, so Lee Chenglong must hurry up and try to score more goals.

When running back with the ball in his arms, Lee Chenglong put his arms around Sterling's head and kissed him and said, "Just play like this, don't be afraid of them."

"As long as we kill them, all of us will be famous all over the world tomorrow."

Liverpool did not celebrate after their goal, so the game was restarted soon after.

Although Jackie Lee broke the goal, the current situation is still on the side of Real Madrid, so they are not in a hurry, they are still taking their time and focusing on a solid defense.

In the 21st minute, Henderson's long-range shot from the front court was blocked by Kroos. Li Chenglong followed up and hit again, but Pepe blocked the ball out of the baseline.

In the 27th minute, after Liverpool passed consecutively in the frontcourt, Emre Can sent a 45-degree oblique pass, and Sterling's header in the penalty area was higher than the crossbar.

Liverpool played in full swing on the field, but in fact there were not many real threats.

As for Real Madrid, the quality of their counterattack is not high, because Bell, who has the fastest counterattack, is still the same as the previous game, and he is not very good.

In the 37th minute, Isco sent a cross from the left, and Ronaldo dived to the top of the penalty area. This was Real Madrid's most threatening attack in the half.

But Mignolet reacted quickly and lifted the ball over the crossbar with a single palm.

In this way, until the end of the first half, the score on the field was still 0:1. Liverpool temporarily led the away game by one goal, but this score was not enough to help Liverpool reverse and advance.

Although he has not been able to reverse the score, Rogers is very satisfied with the current situation. He praised the team's performance during the intermission and asked everyone to continue to strengthen their offense in the second half.

It's a pity that soon after the start of the second half of the game, Rogers began to scold his mother.

In the 53rd minute, Real Madrid took advantage of Liverpool's opportunity to grab the start in the second half and played a threatening counterattack. Ronaldo drove the ball into the penalty area. Skrtel raised his arm while defending Ronaldo.

So the Colombian fell into the penalty area, and the Swedish referee Eriksson blew his whistle and decisively awarded a penalty.

"No, that's not a penalty."

"That guy was flopping."

Liverpool players all stepped forward to protest, but it had no effect at all, and only got a nonsense explanation from the Swedes.

For the ball just now, I can only blame Skrtel for raising his hand. With this movement, the opposing player fell to the ground in time, which indeed gave the referee a reason to award a penalty kick.

Cristiano Ronaldo took the penalty himself, and easily scored the ball into the upper right corner of the goal.

Real Madrid equalized while leading 3-2 on aggregate.

"This is Ronaldo's 10th Champions League goal this season. He has also caught up with Bruce Lee and Messi. All three are tied for the top spot with 10 Champions League goals."

"At the same time, this is also Ronaldo's 77th total goal in the Champions League. He also caught up with Messi and tied for the top spot together..."

This goal made the Spanish commentary cheer and shout, and at the same time made the England commentary a little silent.

But on the court, Li Chenglong was not so pessimistic, he called the whole team together and said loudly.

"Don't worry, everyone, let's stabilize our mentality. This is just an expected goal."

"The head coach told us before the game that we can have a room for error in conceding goals in this game."

"Now that Real Madrid scored, they just got the goals that belonged to them. It doesn't affect us much."

"As long as we score one more goal, we can equalize the total score and drag the game into overtime. We still have a chance. Don't be discouraged!"

Li Chenglong tried his best to encourage the whole team, hoping to minimize the impact of Ronaldo's goal.

Otherwise, if the whole team is discouraged, the next game will really be lost.
