Liverpool are helpless.

In professional football, every red card shown by the referee will make the side receiving the punishment very dissatisfied, and the red card means that they are directly sent off and can no longer replace other players, so they have to fight with one less person.

One less, no joke.

In modern football games, the tactical play is very detailed, the more top-level clubs, the more detailed the tactics will be, every player on the field is a part of the tactical framework, one less part, the overall operation will be seriously affected.

When there are only 10 men on the field, the lack of supplemental offense can affect the defense.

Anyway, too.

Therefore, the appearance of every red card represents the emergence of controversy, there will be huge controversy on the field, the head coach and club outside the field will also express dissatisfaction, even after the game, there will be a lot of media, the red card process will be analyzed, the penalty will be studied in depth and detail, if the penalty is controversial, it will affect the referee on duty.

But......

Mascherano was shown a yellow card, and Liverpool were a little speechless, and none of the Liverpool teammates on the pitch could tell because they didn't know what to tell.

The facts are right in front of you.

The referee's decision was not serious or not serious, but they all felt that Mascherano should have been sent off, deliberately kicked the ball to 'attack' the referee, and was caught in the process of attacking, what else can be said?

The referee can not only have a red card, but also report the case after the game, suspecting that Mascherano is suspected of murder?

Of course.

That's a bit serious!

With most people thinking this way, Liverpool naturally have no objection to the red card, they don't know what to say if they want to argue.

When Mascherano walked down the field depressed, Benitez greeted him and asked him the first question, "Do you have a grudge against Weber?" ”

"How is that possible!"

Mascherano was so sad that even the manager didn't believe him, but explained, "I really don't know how I got to him......

"Strange!"

"I wanted to pass to the left, no, it's the right, I didn't think about it anyway ......"

Mascherano was a bit confused, and his explanations were incoherent.

Benitez listened and nodded, whether he took it to heart or not, his expression could be seen.

Then he could only think about the game.

Mascherano was substituted, and Carragher could only be asked to limit Zhen Shaolong, but thinking about the last round, can Carragher really do it?

————

on the field.

Carragher was also skeptical about whether he could restrain Zhen Shaolong.

In the last leg, Liverpool and Newcastle United played at St James' Park, when Zhen Shaolong was extremely good, scoring three goals in both halves.

It's pretty much the same now.

In the first half of the game, Zhen Shaolong scored two goals, and Mascherano's defense can be said to be a failure.

Carragher has a hard time understanding Mascherano, he knows how difficult it is to keep Zhen Shaolong, it feels almost impossible to do, no matter how hard he tries, because the opponent's running position is not routine at all, rich experience has no effect, and the opponent can occasionally score very amazing goals, and even score directly from zero angles.

How can such a striker be limited?

Now Liverpool are in trouble, and he's going to go on the.

The game continued.

The intensity of the game on the pitch did not affect the mentality of the spectators, and there were many fans and media in the stands, talking about Mascherano, talking about the red card that Webb had just shown, talking about why Mascherano did that.

Of course.

No matter how much they talk about it and how they analyze it, there is nothing they can do to change the outcome.

The players on the pitch didn't have time to think about anything else, everyone was back into the game.

Newcastle United are just one goal ahead and won't be safe to win, while Liverpool will be hoping for a quick equaliser and will be hoping for a win with one man down.

The confrontation between the two sides was very intense, but it also became very exciting.

Ten minutes passed.

Neither Liverpool nor Newcastle United scored, but the situation was clear for ten minutes, and Liverpool could only barely play an equal game with Newcastle United with one man less, with the two sides having equal possession and attacking the same number of attacks, but Newcastle United played a higher threat.

That's where the gap lies.

Liverpool used continuous attacks to make up for the lack of numbers, but the sacrifice must be the defense, Carragher position premises, they have one less central defender, Newcastle United is easier to play the ball into the penalty area, and the defense in front of the goal will become weak.

Newcastle United took advantage of this and threatened the Liverpool goal in succession.

In the 79th minute of the game, the belated goal finally appeared.

It was striker Martins who scored the goal!

Martins received a pass from Milner on the edge of the area and slotted the ball into the back of the net with an accurate shot.

This goal has nothing to do with Zhen Shaolong, but Zhen Shaolong's role is very large, he attracts most of the defensive attention, Martins has almost no defense around him, so he can calmly grab points and find opportunities.

When the TV was playing back in slow motion, the fans could clearly see that Zhen Shaolong was surrounded by three players, Carragher, Gerrard, including Reese, and the commentator couldn't help but laugh and said, "Liverpool's defense of Zhen Shaolong is too tight, the three players surround him in a circle, if they each hold hands together, Zhen Shaolong won't want to get out of the circle......"

"This shows how much Liverpool values Zhen Shaolong, in the last leg, Zhen Shaolong scored three goals, two in the first half, and before Martins' goal, he swept all the goals against Liverpool."

"So we can know that Liverpool have so much to ......

Liverpool's attention played a role.

In the next game time, Zhen Shaolong didn't get a chance, his only feeling was that there was no way, he was sandwiched by two people in front, it was very difficult to get the ball, and without "Must Kill", it was impossible to score goals.

Zhen Shaolong felt for the first time that he could still be restrained.

If the future teams are like Liverpool, even if they can use "Kill" in every game, it will be difficult to help the team complete the goal.

"Alas......"

At the end of the game, Zhen Shaolong could only let out a long sigh.

Life is always full of helplessness!

Of course.

Newcastle United are in a good mood as they beat Liverpool away and can easily enjoy their post-match leisure time and gossip along the way.

For example, Mascherano.

After the game, everyone was talking about Mascherano, Liverpool's defeat to Newcastle United, and the results of other Premier League games seemed to become unimportant, and the topic of everyone's discussion was Mascherano, "kicking the referee", "hatred", "Webb", etc., all became the key words after the game.

Some big media even made the process into a short film, with funny voices and words on it--

"The race has finally begun!"

"My name is Javier Mascherano and my target for this match is Webb, the referee!"

"Look! I managed to scare Zhen Shaolong, huh? Webber is actually behind Zhen Shaolong, a good opportunity! I'm kicking! ”

"Well done! Zhen, good cooperation! ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Webb, I'm scared stupid...... Although my target was you, I just wanted to try and didn't realize I could hit ...... accurately."

“……”

"Ahh Another opportunity! ”

"Webb, this guy has his back to me? One more kick! I'm kicking! Kick hard! ”

"Webb turned back!"

"Hahaha, he was hit in the face! First-Blood！ "Beautiful!"

"Of course, Mr. Referee, I didn't mean to, are you okay?"

“……”

"Now it's the second half, I don't know if there's a chance, huh!?"

"Here comes the opportunity again......"

"Look at my kick! Can you get a second drop of blood...... How did Mr. Referee jump away? He actually saw it...... I didn't mean to! ”

"Webb! Top dog! Eldest brother! Uncle Webb, I really didn't mean to......"

"Please, let me go!"

This short video swept the entire British network, and soon spread to Germany, France, Spain and other countries, and soon became popular in distant China, with more than one million views in a short period of time, and the follow-up is still increasing rapidly.

Zhen Shaolong also saw the video.

The whole Newcastle United squad has seen it, and they are directly involved in the process and will definitely be more interested.

Zhen Shaolong burst out laughing when he saw it, he was very silent and did not speak, and prayed for Mascherano in his heart, "Bless him not to be affected, and he can still keep his heart healthy!" ”

"A-men!"

"God-Emperor!"

"Jesus!"

"Come on, gods, bless!"

Newcastle United had a very good mood and there was more than just good news from their win over Liverpool, as Chelsea beat Manchester United 2-1 at home in the highlight of the game.

Newcastle United had already had two points more than Manchester United before, and after this round, they have five more points than Manchester United, and with only four rounds of the league remaining, it can be said that Newcastle United has held the league championship trophy with one hand.

And then.

On the morning of the next training day, with all the players assembled, manager Sam Allardyce was finally able to speak with confidence.

"That's right!"

"Everybody knows!"

"Actually, from the beginning of the season, I set a goal of winning the league!"

"Now we are close to achieving our goal......"
