Football Legend No. 13

The first half ended with a 2-1 scoreline.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers' face couldn't help but be a little stiff, and in an interview with the media before the game, he said that he didn't need to do targeted defense for Zheng Lin, because he believed that his players would win the game.

To put it bluntly, but for Zheng Lin, he still has some arrangements, but who would have thought that this so-called arrangement would be of no use in the end, Manchester City's two goals can be involved with him, which is the worst thing he feels at present.

In his opinion, the players cannot be blamed, because each player can contribute so much, and he can't ask people to do what he can't do.

It's a fact that they're already behind in the first half, so all he has to do is encourage his players to cheer up in the second half and not let City easily take three points on them.

The worst thing is to drag the game to a draw.

Think about it, but for the victory that can be won by holding, will Pellegrini just let go and let go?

The answer is clearly no!

What's more, this is the time when he can grab points and narrow down points with Arsenal at the top of the table, and it is also a moment when he can give opponents Liverpool a head-on blow, and he is not willing to waste such a good opportunity!

"If there are no accidents in the second half, they will take the initiative, we have to do a good job of defense, Zheng, you have to do a good job, timely ball, we play counterattack!"

"Yes!"

......

The second half begins.

This is the first round for Manchester City to attack.

Under Pellegrini's advance arrangement, Zheng Lin and others effectively implemented his policy, reduced mistakes, did not give Liverpool the opportunity to fight back, and they had to do a good job of forcing each other to make mistakes, so as to complete the further expansion of the comparison score.

In the face of Suarez and others' upper grab, Zheng Lin carried out parallel transmission balls in an orderly manner, and they did not choose to return the ball at the first time, because after the return pass, it is more likely to have problems.

For Liverpool's pressing, Zheng Lin is vigilant, because Suarez was not simple before, this guy is clever and ruthless.

After passing the ball to David Silva, Zheng Lin directly crossed Coutinho, to be honest, Coutinho's defense is poor, but his attack, running, and passing are not simple, and he should belong to the period of rising balls in this period.

So for his running range, Zheng Lin also observed.

Perhaps his defensive awareness is not good, at this time, Zheng Lin also seized this opportunity, and an acceleration directly got rid of Coutinho's defensive range, which also drove Henderson on the side to move towards Zheng Lin.

"This one made Glenn Johnson lose his center of gravity with a fake real feint, and now there is a vacant seat in front of Zheng Lin!"

"Cross!"

"It's a bit of a pity that Negredo was suppressed by Sacco in the snatch, and the ball was cleared; If Liverpool want to win this game, he must keep an eye on Zheng Lin. "

......

This header did not get a chance, which made Negredo a little chagrin, and as the football was cleared, he gritted his teeth and rushed back, no matter how much to say at this time, it is necessary to ensure Liverpool's attacking rhythm.

Liverpool's players are also very clear that no matter how fast they run, they can't pass the ball as fast.

Starting with Lucas, after a few passes, the football has reached the feet of Coutinho.

Having experienced Serie A and La Liga, Ku Birds know very well that all he has to do is find Suarez and his own shot again.

Because Kompany has taken Suarez very seriously, and he currently has Xavi Garcia, there is still room for him to adjust.

“GO！"

Not far away, Sterling shouted to Ku Bird.

This sentence also told him that it was time to move, and Coutinho also saw Zheng Lin who had returned to defense, and he knew very well what he should do at this time!

Coutinho's deft breakthrough moves bring his aura to the fullest, which is unique to him as a Brazilian player.

This is what Rogers likes more about him.

The football was like a dragon at his feet, and this time broke through Xavi Garcia, and his dexterity combined with his speed caused Javi Garcia a lot of trouble.

With a few players coming back, City's backline must buy enough time for them.

"Shoot!"

"Joe Hart heroically blocked the low shot, Suarez followed, Kompanyka held the position, Joe Hart hugged Suarez before he touched the ball!"

"The quality of the shot was high, but Joe Hart in this game was excellent! Without him, it is estimated that Manchester City may have conceded one or two more goals. "

Yes, Joe Hart's performance at this time is somewhat surprising, and it is more a proof of his strength.

Although there is a legend: when you see Joe Hart and kick it, you may have an unexpected harvest.

It's a meme, and although Joe Hart is really not doing well in this area, he is the one who holds up England's most difficult moments!

Just like the man who supported the lowest point of the German chariot, they are all heroes!

At Pellegrini's advice, Hart did not kick off the ball and threw it to Zabaleta.

The game situation once again came to Manchester City's attack, with the situation of almost conceding the ball a moment ago, Zheng Lin waved on the side to press the rhythm, don't worry, this scene made Rodgers' serious expression undiminished.

Apparently he also noticed this move, which means that Pellegrini gave the young man the right to play on the field, which obviously treated him as a core.

In particular, Pei Gong has been arranging for Zheng Lin to play the position of the front waist, which requires him to help the team in attack.

Obviously, this is also to release Zheng Lin's offensive talent, although he is back to defense, but this position can do defense as much as he is in the midfield or back, in reducing his defensive tasks, increasing Zheng Lin's dribbling attack, in this area, it is enough to see how good Zheng Lin's performance is.

"Zheng Lin broke through Henderson with the ball, and at this moment his delicate technique was displayed, and he also showed his speed!"

"He passed, it was a straight kick and this guy was a bit surprising!"

"The football went straight through Lucas, straight to David Silva, it was the connection between the two of them."

The connection between the two of them is currently one of Manchester City's biggest killers, and the tacit understanding and creativity that the two of them can form is amazing, and they are also at this moment!

"David Silvara dangled the ball away from Sacco and shot from near corner!"

"The ball went in!"

"Manchester City scored again in the 67th minute! At this point, the score has come to 3-1! "

With the start of this goal, the whole Etihad began to sing, which made the Liverpool fans who traveled with the team very dissatisfied, and they also began to chant, loudly, but suffering from numerical disadvantage.

Although the singing could not be heard, the players also noticed the small group of fans in the stands, which greatly encouraged the players on the field.

For them, this is their best support!

You'll never go it alone!

This song made the fighting spirit of Liverpool players start to rise.

The game resumes.

This time the morale of the Liverpool players is very high, and for them, the game is not over, that is, there is still a chance to equalise.

Wasn't that what happened on the miracle night back then?

At this time, after Liverpool's kick-off.

Suarez's running became even more enchanting, and he attracted Kompany to keep an eye on him.

And Coutinho behind him, etc., in the cross-position, which led to a certain confusion in Manchester City's defensive area, but as a professional player, it is necessary to correct in time after the change, and Manchester City at this time is also in this situation.

But Liverpool don't give you much time, they need to equalise two goals.

Time is of the essence for them, so they choose to speed up their offensive pace.

This is also for Manchester City to keep an eye on Philippe Coutinho faster.

'Philippe Coutinho received a direct ball from Henderson, which was a bit negligent by Manchester City, so easily allowing Coutinho to receive a well-placed pass.

"Coutinho shot a fake shot, a straight kick, Suarez..." The

narrator's voice seemed to be stuck, and there was no follow-up.

The reason is that Kompany protected his position with excellent physical confrontation and speed, which allowed Suarez to lose this time.

"Kompany's defence has really increased hugely for Manchester City, and without him, I guess Manchester City would have lost this goal!"

"It's a bit desperate for Liverpool, but fortunately there are still ten minutes to go, which is still a chance for Liverpool!"

Yes, in terms of time, Liverpool still have a chance, but it depends on whether they can grab the football from the feet of Manchester City!

Otherwise, you can only lose away from home and give up your second place.

This is unacceptable for Liverpool, who aim to win the title!

After City's goal, Suarez took the lead in fighting for possession, which allowed the City defender to start a quick shot.

"Konarov kicked a long pass, this is looking for Zheng Lin in front! Zheng Lin jumped high and returned the ball to the top.

"Sterling got it before Fernandinho!"

'Liverpool's last chance, they press the rhythm, they can't rush, the more anxious the easier it is to make mistakes.

After Sterling snatched the football, he knocked it to Coutinho, for Sterling he can't do anything, but you let him do the finish, it's not a big problem!

After receiving the pass, Coutinho knew better, after experiencing the previous "fight" in the midfield, which also made them not have enough time, and they had to start a goal before they could think about the next step!

At this moment, Coutinho showed his spirituality, but Zheng Lin, who came back behind him, would not give such an opportunity!

Coutinho shook Javi Garcia's center of gravity with a fancy move, which allowed him to continue to break through, but Zheng Lin behind him had already sprinted back into place, and he was stuck on the right side of Ku Bird, which made him very uncomfortable.

Time is passing, Ku Bird wants to break free from Zheng Lin's defense, both sides have hand movements, but Zheng Lin has a relatively excellent physical condition, he does not lose position, which also causes Ku Bird to be in the inferior position in the confrontation.

"Shovel!"

"Zheng Lin's sudden falling tackles made Liverpool lose this opportunity, and Xavi Garcia got the football that was tackled by Zheng Lin."

This tackle also declared Liverpool's defeat.

In the time that followed, Manchester City played steadily, making extremely safe passes, and in the face of such a situation, Liverpool could only swallow this defeat!

Manchester City also moved to second place, and this is the closest they have come to the top!
