Chapter 366: The Ambition of the Eagles

Early morning. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Beach villas.
After washing, Li Tongfan had just finished cooking phone porridge with Wang Qinghe with a hippie smile, and then opened the Hummer go-book laptop with a smile, and inadvertently clicked on the team's [lineup] page, and suddenly found another small button at the bottom of the page - [Teaching Assistant Suggestions]!
Li Tongfan's heart moved, and after clicking [Assistant Coach Suggestion], two option buttons popped up on the screen - [Team Report].
[Team Lecture Report].
…… Three minutes later, Li Tongfan looked at the Hummer go-book and was stunned!
The [Team Report] page shows the strongest player in Newcastle's three lines at this stage, the striker is actually the fat Ronaldo who is still losing weight, the midfielder is also a veteran - Makelele, and the backline is Steven Taylor...... Lao Li pondered in his heart, it is estimated that the system has added the invisible ability of game experience to the forbidden area, otherwise just looking at the data Makelele's body is a scum in the [speed] and [explosive power]!
The veteran is mighty!
Lee Tong Fan thinks it is necessary for him to re-acquaint himself with the important surname of competition experience!
In addition to player evaluations, the FM2009 system scored the team's tacit cooperation, and now the Newcastle team has 25 points, and the system comments - "The players are like a group of blind people on the field......
Li Tongfan checked the [tacit understanding] of other Premier League teams with a comparative mentality - Chelsea 89 points!
Manchester United 93 points!
Arsenal 99 points!
Liverpool 89 points!
...... "Uncle's! Forget it, don't look at it, it's too hurtful to ...... self-esteem."
After looking at more than a dozen clubs, Li Tongfan was shocked to find that except for Manchester City's 49, there was no team with a [tacit understanding] below 50...... In other words, Newcastle's ability to cooperate with each other is systematically rated as the bottom of the Premier League!
Li Tongfan played the spirit of Ah Q to forget the team's disadvantages, and clicked [Continue Game] with the mouse...... Three seconds later.
The fiery red morning sun poured in from the floor-to-ceiling window, and Li Tongfan, who was only wearing a pair of flat-legged underwear, let out a lamentation - "Say, I'm really fucking cheap, I can actually punish a system task when I get up early in the morning and open the system, is our Lao Li's character no longer strong?" ”
On the LCD screen of the computer, a system reminder box popped up - "Ding Dong, gamer Li Tongfan, you have triggered the Maverick-level system task [Team Run-in], requiring you to increase the team's tacit understanding to more than 80 before Christmas!" If you refuse this task, you will deduct 50 [Character Points], and if you fail the task, you will deduct [Character Points] 35 points, and you can get [Character Points] 60 points by completing the task! ”
Another system mission!
Luckily, it's at the Maverick level, so it doesn't look too difficult!
[Team Coordination Tacit Understanding] This thing seems to be a new term added to the FM2009 system, at least Li Tongfan has not heard it in the previous FM2007 and FM2008, as the name suggests, it is the cooperation proficiency between first-team players on the green field!
At this stage, Newcastle's [team cooperation tacit understanding] is 25, and if it is increased to 80, it will take 55 data differences!
As for how to improve?
The system did not give a clear answer, so he could only rely on Li Tongfan to slowly explore it step by step. Luckily, it's only September, and Christmas is still nearly 120 days away, so there's still a lot of time!
Bang!
Li Tongfan hatefully closed the Hummer go-book laptop, took a sip of juice, and for a while thought of countless ways to enhance the mutual understanding and combat effectiveness of the hammers in his heart!
Having a banquet?
Hold a birthday party?
Or do you talk to each other?
Every idea seems like, and at least at this stage, it seems that only playing more games is king. After the hammers have a preliminary understanding through the game, the next step is to start with life...... However, being able to win consecutive games should also be one of the ways to enhance the team's cooperation, right?
However, the problem at the moment is that it will be difficult for Newcastle to win without an abnormal archive!
Although they have won three in a row since the start of the 08-09 season, that doesn't mean Newcastle are invincible. The team's lack of in-flinching weaknesses was evident in the first three games – against Manchester City, in the first half against Fulham...... It's all very tough!
In the long season, there are stronger and tougher opponents waiting for the new Newcastle to challenge. If you can't have the absolute upper hand against some second-rate teams, then trying to go further on three fronts is tantamount to talking in a dream!
Moreover, what others don't know is that in order to win the first two games, Li Tongfan has actually used 4 abnormal saves, and if the next games are still consumed at this rate, Li Tongfan will now have less than 150 [character points] left after the system upgrade is not enough to plug his teeth...... You must know that 80% of the 24 members of the first team after the big change are newcomers, from different countries, with different languages, different surnames and hobbies...... All in all, this is a bunch of guys who don't seem out of place except football, at least at this stage!
It is necessary to come up with a way to solve this problem as soon as possible!
…… Entering September, the summer finally came to an end.
After the transfer market was closed, the major teams finally put all their energy into the league competition! In particular, the clubs that were hoping to win the trophy at the end of the 08-09 season were working hard to win in the hope of getting a head start at the start of the season!
The same is true for Newcastle's goals.
But soon, the new Newcastle team, which has only reached 25 in the [tacit understanding], will welcome the first heavyweight opponent of the 08-09 Premier League - the Red Army Liverpool!
According to the FA's schedule for the 08-09 season, Newcastle will go to Anfield on September 4 to challenge the big4 traditional giants Liverpool!
This game is a tough test for the Magpies newcomers!
The battle for Anfield will be a double-edged sword!
On the one hand, if you can get a win against such a strong team at the beginning of the league, even if it is only 1:0, it will undoubtedly be a very, very big help to the morale and combat effectiveness of the whole team!
On the other hand, the current Newcastle team is too young, the young team's ability to take on the pressure and accept defeat is too weak, if the opponent is beaten in the head at the beginning of the league, then the negative effect is very terrible!
Therefore, in the face of such a grim situation, Li Tongfan decided to learn from the great leader [***] and his old man - to despise the enemy strategically and attach importance to the opponent tactically!
Under the guidance of such a "policy of preparing for war", in the first three days of the Battle of Anfield, the whole of England was in doubt and amazement, because they actually saw an absolutely [***] type of madman Lee!
A madman Lee who has learned to praise his opponents, who has learned to be humble, who has learned to keep a low profile!
A strange madman Lee!
…… September 2nd.
“…… Rafael Benitez is undoubtedly a manager with a very distinctive surname, and his achievements at Anfield have been impressive, and the Reds are now the strongest in recent years...... My players are still young, so the game in two days is just a very important learning opportunity for us......
In an interview with the Observer, Madman Lee's words literally dislocated the jaws of football pundits and commentators across England, and even fans wondered about Madman Lee's new image...... Is this still the same madman Li who has a blind eye and a mouth that is not forgiving at all?
Could it be that this guy has changed his surname?
Soon, the media, whose curiosity is stronger than the kitten, will all set their sights on Anfield, because one wonders how Rafa Benitez, who was easily suppressed by the madman Lee in the final moments of last season, will respond to the inexplicable compliments of his nemesis!
Within three hours, Benitez was in the Liverpool Post's words - "...... If the madman Lee is telling the truth, then congratulations to him, he has finally grown up and matured, because he has learned how to respect his opponents......"
The implication is very obvious - first of all, the madman Li, you shameless activation is talking about the guy, and secondly, you used to be a bastard who didn't know how to respect the old and love the young!
...... "Fat Bei, your uncle!" ”
Benitez's sarcastic reply of not using a knife to kill made Li Tongfan almost bite a mouthful of steel teeth.
The sullen man nested alone in the head coach's office at the rigberton training base, raised his middle finger at the newspaper in front of him without hesitation, drew countless circles, and cursed this Spanish bald fat man for not having sex within three months............ September 3rd.
Rigberton Training Base, Newcastle.
Coaching Staff Room!
On this sunny morning, Li Tongfan, who pretended to be his grandson and was despised, offered his killer weapon "Reading Talent" at the coaching staff meeting with a gloomy face, and finalized the tactics against Liverpool alone - 4-3-3 attacking formation!
In fact, if you look at the real pitch position of the eleven hammers, this formation should be a 2-3-3-2 formation to be accurate - in the backfield, the two central defenders are dragging behind, and the full-backs on the left and right sides are positioned at the level of the back!
In the front court, the two full-backs stand on the pitch and the front midfield, the front midfielder is inserted into the penalty area at any time, and the two forwards stand parallel in the opponent's penalty area!
Crazy formation!
A new team with an average age of less than 25 years old and a squad that has not been in place for more than a month to play in the world-famous Anfield, if it were to be replaced by any other manager, it would be enough to be burned at the stake by crazy fans...... However, the madman Lee, who is draped in mysterious brilliance, is obviously not among them!
The members of the coaching staff looked at each other and smiled, it seems that Benitez's soft knife-like reply yesterday angered this master...... However, the deep sense of blind obedience and dependence on Lee Tong-beom made everyone, including assistant coach Alan Shearer, choose to fully support the head coach's decision!
In addition, the members of the coaching staff of course also have their own opinions, although such a tactic is extremely risky, but if you add the undefeated myth that shrouds Lee Tong-beom, coupled with the enthusiasm and momentum of the young players, uh, plus the sudden surname of the tactic itself...... Will it be a surprise victory?
In the case that the opponent's strength is obviously higher than his own, the tricky tactics of surprise and victory often become the first choice on the football field!
So, the beastly blood of the coaches in the conference room began to boil, and think of the scene where the hammers swept the high-spirited Reds in the jaw-dropping eyes of the Liverpudlians...... Even Ito, who has always only had a cold with the pound and had no sense of belonging to Newcastle, clenched his fists and ...... "...... In view of the contempt and insult that the Spanish fat man gave us, I decided to surprise him a little! Hehe, so, the most important job for you right now is to give me a good training session on those energetic lads, and I want them to have fire in their eyes from the first second they set foot at Anfield......"
At this moment, Li Tongfan smiled shamelessly!
…… The media thought that after Benitez did not hesitate to satirize the madman Lee, maybe the madman Lee would return to normal and become the same laughing and angry and open-mouthed madman who could provide them with countless news materials, but they were all disappointed!
Because, the madman Li actually carried out the strange behavior of complimenting the enemy to the end without care!
So, in less than 48 hours, Li Tongfan put Spanish coach Rafael Benitez and his Reds Liverpool into a deafening pile of sycophants...... September 3rd.
13:00 noon.
The Week's Flash: Maniac Lee thinks Rafael Benitez is the greatest manager in Liverpool's history...... 16 p.m.:
"Every Flash": Crazy Lee praises Fernando Torres, the golden boy is the most feared killer in the Premier League...... 20:00 p.m.
The Sun: Maniac Lee thinks youngster Ngog is a rising star and Torres' best partner up front............ September 4th.
9:00 a.m.
The Mirror: The Anfield game will be a learning journey for Newcastle's youngsters...... 11:00 a.m.
BBC TV broadcast: "Crazy Lee thinks the next game against a mighty Liverpool will be tougher for Newcastle and maybe a draw is acceptable, and Fulham's Mr Hodgson has inspired him............ In this way, one after another news came out of Li Tongfan's mouth like a lingering fly, buzzing around the Red Army Liverpool that was preparing for war...... At first, the fat Benitez would take the time to reply with a sentence or two, saying something like Ngog was still young, but then the tired Spanish coach refused to talk to any of the reporters about the issue in a fit of rage, and banned any of the players from being interviewed by reporters...... The reporters who ran into a wall in front of Benitez suddenly stood on Newcastle's side, and although people were surprised by the modesty and low-key nature of the madman Lee this time, the criticism of the Spanish coach did not fall at all...... Before the war started, Anfield was already made by Li Tongfan's big mouth!
…… September 4th.
At about thirteen o'clock in the afternoon, the day's light reached its hottest. The Newcastle FC bus was carrying the first-team players and drove to Liverpool with more than 5,000 Newcastle fans in the back!
The shameless Lee Tong-fan did not forget to make trouble for Benitez, and he vowed in his pre-match press conference after reaching Liverpool that Newcastle would only fight for one point...... My team is not mature yet, and I am more concerned about the form of the players than the final win or defeat in the game...... Of course, in the next meeting, I will let Liverpool know how terrible a maturing Newcastle team can be......"
…… 3 hours before the game.
In the manager's office at Anfield.
The lights are a little dim and the room smells faintly of tobacco!
Facing the intricately crafted Magnet Alloy Tactical Plate in front of him, Benitez made a rare effort to hold a cloud between his middle and index fingers, and cyan smoke came out of the cigarette...... The pensive Spaniard didn't even notice that the cigarette was about to burn his fingers!
Benitez is still wondering what kind of tactics the madman Lee will use in the game after 180 minutes!
In the past few days, although the Spaniards seem to be very relaxed on the surface, in fact, Li Tongfan's uncharacteristically continuous statements in the past few days have successfully confused his tactical thinking to a certain extent!
"Damn, the hell is that shameless guy going to risk attacking, or is he pragmatically defending and counterattacking?"
Nenitez took another hard puff of his cigarette, but immediately choked on the spicy smell coming from his lungs...... In the face of a cunning and changeable opponent like the madman Lee, any head coach will try his best to figure out the opponent's tactical intentions, and a kind of wordless majestic pressure will rush to his face...... And for the famous coach who is already standing at the height of Benitez, this feeling makes them even more excited, excited, and exciting...... Because, everyone wants to be the one who broke the myth of the madman Li Quansheng in one fell swoop!
It's far easier to get Benitez excited than to win a myth!
Moreover, today's opportunity is very rare for Benitez.
Everyone can see that Newcastle are dynamic at the moment, but they are extremely inexperienced and tacit...... Contrary to Newcastle, Nenitez's squad has theoretically become ......perfect since Liverpool brought in Robbie Keane and Spanish midfielder Rieira in the summer, as well as buying out loan Mascherano With the terrifying potential of Newcastle's new army not yet fully exploited by Crazy Lee, Liverpool have more than 80% hope of taking advantage of their home advantage to achieve a victory!
A victory, if it could be achieved, would undoubtedly be enough to be a victory in the annals of European football!
So, Benitez takes this game extremely seriously.
Even just in case, he had already focused his training on the game against Newcastle a week ago! In the past five or six days, Liverpool has practiced two completely opposite tactical routines - one attack!
A kind of defense!
Rafael Benitez was very good at trying his best to be able to tactically restrain the madman Lee from the first second of the match...... However, after experiencing the endless croaking of Crazy Lee in the media these days, today he is completely unable to judge the tactics that Crazy Lee will use in the game...... You must know that the famous handsome man has made a move, which is even more than the bloody battlefield!
If one of them loses the first move, then the next thing will be completely passive, and the slightest carelessness will fall into a place of no return!
Therefore, the Spaniards, who were too concerned about the outcome of the game, fell into the prospect of looking ahead!
Psychologically speaking, this is the "purpose trembling"! There are not many people who can make Benitez "tremble", and Li Tongfan is one of them!
Time passes in the office!
In the smoke, the Yunston between his fingers finally burned Benitez's fingers!
The Spaniards instinctively shuddered and threw the cigarette butts in the trash...... He finally made up his mind!
If something goes wrong, it's a demon!
Benitez seemed to feel that he had finally bypassed the layers of fog, and after peeling back the cocoon, he had vaguely grasped a trace of the truth!
…… Two and a half hours later.
Anfield away dressing room.
“…… I know some people are unhappy with the crazy Lee who has been reading between the lines in the media lately, and being a head coach can really hurt the morale of the team...... However, I feel that I have been wronged by you......"
Li Tongfan said as he carefully observed the expression of each hammer...... Sure enough, except for a few veteran players who know themselves very well, the young guys all have suppressed their fighting spirit in their eyes............ You know, we are not facing a mercenary army like Manchester City who have accumulated money for money, nor a third-rate team with no ambition like Fulham, nor an amateur team like Odenheim who can be happy to make a single appearance on the satellite broadcast...... Today, we're going to take on one of the greatest teams of all time in the English league! So, I'm afraid you'll be scared out of your opponent's fame, and you'll be booed by the crazy KOPs in the Anfield stands...... All of this, I'm just looking for an excuse for you to explain to the fans after you lose......! ”
The assistant who had long known Lee Tong-beom's purpose called coach Alan Shearer covered his mouth and almost laughed...... Li Tongfan glared at Shearer, walked quickly to the tactical board, and continued his performance: "Okay, okay...... Guys, now it's time for me to admit my mistakes! I covered you all under my wings like an old hen, forgetting that you seemed to be a flock of young eagles and not chickens...... Hahaha - the players were amused by the metaphor of Lee Tong-beom!
Syllable!
Li Tongfan tapped the tactical board with the whip in his hand, and suddenly asked loudly: "So, now I want to know, do you have the courage to say the ambition of the young eagle?" Tell me, guys, you guys need a win? Or do you just want to enjoy a study trip to Anfield? ”
"Victory!!"
"We just need to win!!"
"Learning? That's what Liverpool should do! ”
Li Tongfan looked at the hammers waving their fists and screaming, it seems that these guys have really been suppressed enough in the past few days...... Bang Bang!!
Tapping on the tactical board with the whip in his hand, Li Tongfan picked up the ink brush in his hand and wrote on it, and thirty seconds later, a crazy formation appeared on the tactical board!
A tactical formation that makes all the hammers blood boil!
"The next ninety minutes will be a game of the brave!"
A strange smile appeared on Li Tongfan's face: "Look, we practiced this tactic three days ago, but it was abandoned in the past two days, because I wasn't sure if you had enough courage and perseverance to complete this adventure at Anfield...... For now, though, I'm willing to give you one last chance...... Tell me out loud, do you dare to risk failure and ridicule like this to pluck the glory of tonight? Do you dare? ”
"Dare to !!!!"
More than 20 people shouted together, almost breaking the roof!
...... "Maybe we should change our tactics to meet this war!" ”
In the home dressing room, Benitez, as usual, wrote the final decision on the tactical board with a serious expression: "I think Crazy Lee will go on the defensive in the game because his team does not qualify for a win at Anfield...... However, when Newcastle defend at full strength, it will be a bit more difficult for us to play the game, so the tactics of the rehearsal in the past few days have to change, and I ask you not to press too hard at the beginning of the game, and it is better to be able to lure the little guys to attack......
At this moment, the complacent Benitez would never have imagined what he would pay for his words ten minutes later!
…… Force--the game is on!
Every fan in the Anfield stands had their brains burning with excitement at the moment when the referee blew the game!
on the field.
Newcastle played away from home with captain Michael Owen making the first touch of the game for both sides, and the white ball pulled a beautiful half-arc on the green grass to the feet of striker Alan Smith...... What happened next was unexpected!
The Magpies began their march to conquer Anfield amid the gasps of countless fans in the stadium, and the frenzied attack began to stage bit by bit...... "...... It's unbelievable that Newcastle took the lead at Anfield and Crazy Lee's starting line-up told us one thing: the whole of England was tricked by him once! ”
The TV commentator Ssett emphasized that the prank had succeeded: "Hey, Gary, can you imagine that Crazy Lee would arrange such a starting formation today?" Oh, 4-3-3? Or 2-6-2? Ahaha, let's take a look at Mr. Benitez's expression first! ”
Amid the laughter of Sester and Lineker, the camera quickly focused on Spaniard Benitez, and the Liverpool manager's always calm face set off a wild wave of rage, and the biggest unconsciously opened into an O-shape...... Gary Lineker suppressed his laughter and began to introduce the starting line-ups on both sides - "...... Michael Owen and Hernan Crespo appeared on the field without accident, it seems that the madman Lee is very cautious about Ronaldo's use, there are media reports that Ronaldo is losing weight like crazy for the main position, I don't know when the skinny alien from before appears in the eyes of the fans again, how will the madman Lee arrange the lineup......"
“…… The German international Podolski, who did not perform well in the last game, returned to the bench unexpectedly, the two full-backs were [Tsar] Arshavin and [Angel Wings] Juan Mata, Alan Smith, who was deeply trusted by the madman Lee, continued to start, and the person who qualified for the midfield position was Argentine Fernando Gago, who had just joined from Real Madrid, I thought he would choose Makelle, who has more experience in the Premier League......"
“…… At the back, David Thornton and Steven Taylor, who had performed well in the previous games, started as desired, while Mamadou Sako and [Eastern European Ronaldo] Erkovzizi were on the bench, and former Chelsea youngster Manzioni appeared at centre-back, and it seems that after a European Championship national team defeat week, Manzioni Lee has made a change to Manzioni's position...... At right-back, Gareth Bale, who has just joined from Tottenham, was lucky enough to get the ...... of Crazy Lee.
“…… On the goalkeeper side...... Whew, in such an important game, the madman Lee actually replaced the Magpie gate god Jiwen with a 21-year-old young player, Hugo Lloris, did he want to commit suicide? ”
While the two commentators were still shouting and venting their surprise, Anfield suddenly fell into a furious atmosphere like a rolling thunder - a goal!
In the stands, more than 59,000 Liverpool fans scrambled to get up from their seats, covering their eyes with their hands in disbelief...... Because, it was Newcastle who scored the goal!
“…… Crespo!!! Hernan Crespo scored!! He scored the first goal of the game and Newcastle took the lead!! gooooooooooooooooooooooal!!! …… Oh, whom, before the game, who would have thought that the first to score the goal was actually Newcastle, which was evaluated as [immature]? ”
“…… 1:0! Unbelievable...... In the 178th second of the game, Newcastle got off to a dream start!! And for Liverpool, who are aiming to grab a win to break the myth of the madman Lee, the goal was tantamount to a slap in the face...... Now, every Reds player has to get their mindset right as soon as possible, because the goal of Argentine centre-forward Crespo has turned them into score-chasers! ”
“…… Crespo again!! In the summer transfer window, the madman Lee spent £4 million to bring in Crespo! Before that, there were also media talking about Crespo's performance during his Chelsea days, and they thought that the Argentine centre-forward at his peak could not adapt to the Premier League, let alone now that he is dying? However, it turns out that the transfer deal, which many pundits considered a failure, can now be stripped of the label of failure, as the crazy Crespo has already scored three goals for Newcastle......
“…… There are even rumours that Mourinho fell out with owner Roman Abramovich because of Crespo's transfer, and if that's the case, then the madman Lee has made a lot of money, because he not only got a strong player, but also drove the strongest opponent in the competition for the league title to Serie A, killing two birds with one stone!!! ”
…… China.
It was late at night.
Jingle Bell Alarm Clock roared desperately like a fat pig that had been stabbed. Sun Bo slept on the bed for a while, opened his eyes sleepily, and looked at the wall clock on the wall.
It's already 1:50?
Worst! The race has begun!
Don't care about putting on clothes, he jumped into the living room and turned on the TV in an instant, the Premier League was bought out by Tiansheng in the past two years, and then paid broadcast, as Li Tongfan's first website manager in China, although Sun Bo despised Tiansheng's approach, but the worship of the madman Li deep into the bone marrow still made him apply for a paid channel without hesitation!
Crash!
The sound of the TV turning on makes the image on the screen blur to clear, and the image of fans jumping from their seats in the stands at Anfield Stadium comes to view, and then the picture flashes as players from both sides restart the game in the middle circle of the stadium...... Scored?
Who got in?
Sun Bo's heart was pounding, and he waited until he could see the score display in the upper right corner...... What the? Newcastle actually take the lead on the road!
At this moment, Sun Bo couldn't wait to give himself a few big-eared scrapers, and snooze for a few minutes, but he didn't expect to miss a goal, and it was a goal from Newcastle that he supported, and it was too late to regret it!
However, just then, a slow-motion replay of the goal suddenly appeared on the TV - Liverpool were attacking.
Gerrard won the ball down the middle and made a long stop-through...... On the right side, Spanish player Rieira tried to force David Sandton after unloading the ball, but the Italian teenager blocked the angle, so he had no choice but to pull the ball and turn around, and then suddenly got up and forced a cross...... Bang!
The ball was cleared by Steven Taylor's header before Torres!
The next moment, the ball fell to Fernando Gago, who spun away from Alonso's pressing with a light ball guard and then quickly played the ball diagonally to Juan Mata on the wing...... Six seconds later, Juan Mata, who had been three in a row, was already on the left wing of Liverpool.
After a dormant spell at Old Trafford and a training session at Euro 2008, Juan Mata's lethality on the pitch is clearly close to that of a superstar like Cristiano Ronaldo!
In this chaotic moment of attacking to defending, Liverpool's defence is obviously helpless in the face of Juan Mata, who has already opened up his speed and sprinted!
Before centre-back Daniel Aager was ready to send the hateful little Spaniard off the pitch with a brutal foul, Juan Mata slotted the ball into a cross...... In the middle, Michael Owen shoots angrily at the football!
However, the shot was a bit off the beaten track under Carragher's interference, and the ball was fast, but the flying defence was clearly not Liverpool's goal...... Just when the Liverpool fans were cheering and the Newcastle fans were lamenting, a tall and dexterous figure stood up and jumped up in front of the goal and posed...... Hernan Crespo!
The ball is in!
In the living room, Sun Bo screamed like a pig...... Although, it's just slow-motion replay............ Anfield.
The game went on, but Crespo's goal wasn't over yet!
Li Tongfan's face was filled with a smug smile after the conspiracy succeeded.
The goal was scored in the fifth minute of the game, which had a great impact on the development of the situation on the field, at least once Newcastle chose to defend in a bucket formation, it would definitely make the arrogant Liverpool jump to their feet!
After these games, Crespo surprised Lee Tongfan far beyond the expectations of the Argentine who decided to buy at that time! Originally, Crespo was introduced to find an experienced master for Gigi and other young guys with super high potential, and I didn't expect the Argentine to contribute much energy on the field, at most it was just a main substitute during an unimportant event, but I didn't expect it to ...... It seems that for the positioning of veterans, Li Tongfan must reconsider!
Due to the significance of this game, Newcastle could be worth six points against a potential rival like Liverpool if they are to win the title. Therefore, Li Tongfan did not support the big and used FM2009 to make a deduction before the game.
And according to the final results of the FM2009 system, Crespo's goal is an expected appetizer, and there are many interesting things to come!
On the other hand, Benitez doesn't have the good mood of Li Tongfan!
Ten minutes before the start of the game, he was still in front of all the Liverpool players in the dressing room and swore that the madman Lee would never attack at Anfield, but as soon as the starting line-up came out, his chubby face was invisibly and crackling...... Crespo's goal was like a knife in his heart!
And Newcastle's strong adaptability and counter-attacking ability before scoring the goal made Benitez even more frightened. The Spaniards were sure that a week before the Magpies did not have such an attack...... So today's scene can only be explained by Newcastle's progress!
It's horrible!
Rafael Benitez could not have imagined that the Newcastle side would truly grow up after the test of war, when the owners of those young and immature faces would fully exploit their amazing potential, coupled with their talented young manager...... Who else in the world can stop Newcastle in their tracks?
Hiding his deep apprehension, Benitez got up from his seat and walked slowly to the sidelines, shouting-" ...... Steven, change tactics! …… Lead your teammates to press the space...... Idea their two flanks, follow the first set of tactics before the game...... Offensive...... We need to get the score back as soon as possible! ”
The noise and boos in the stands made it difficult for Gerrard to hear what the manager was saying on the sidelines, but after seeing Benitez's constant gestures, the Reds leader understood what the boss meant!
Offensive!
You have to get the score back as soon as possible, or the rhythm of the game will be controlled by Newcastle! That would be a disaster for Liverpool...... Gerrard, who worked with Maniac Lee in the England national team, deeply understands how terrifying it would be to let Lee Tongfan get a head start in the game!
"Hey, guys! Listen, we have to step up our offense! Javier, you're going to have to wear a lot more of a wide range of transfer balls...... Ryan and Albert, you two have a little more range to run...... Guys, know that we are not facing Newcastle, but Crazy Lee, so, throw away any luck and arrogance, score! We need to score goals and get the rhythm back into the game! ”
Although Gerrard is not the manager, the captain's authority on the pitch is unassailable.
Therefore, when Gerrard "translated" the manager's intentions to his teammates, Alonso, Rieira and Babel, who were named, quickly nodded in understanding.
After self-adjustment, Liverpool soon launched a stormy offensive!
In the stands.
The KOPs sang "You'll Never Go Alone" to cheer on the team.
Reds fans firmly believe that as long as the Red soldiers are serious, they can definitely beat the young and immature Newcastle to the ground, and any opponent who dares to provoke Liverpool's majesty at Anfield has already paid the price!
"When you pass through the storm, hold your head high and don't be afraid of the darkness, at the end of the storm, there is a golden sky and the sweet song of the lark, through the wind, through the rain, your dreams may be shattered, but with the hope in your heart you will never walk alone!
You'll never walk alone!! ”
…… With impassioned singing in every inch of Anfield, Liverpool fans are looking forward to the Reds teaching a memorable lesson to Newcastle who dare to challenge the Premier League aristocracy at hallowed Anfield...... But soon, KOP was surprised to find that Newcastle, who had a one-goal lead, did not "meanly" shrink into their own half of the field as they expected, but like a little kid who accompanied someone to snatch their beloved lollipop, they launched a fierce counterattack against its opponent without fear!
Both sides are attacking, both sides are fighting, both sides are going crazy!
In the stands, on the greenery, the blood of a group of people and a group of people is boiling!
The game is getting better and better because of the offense.
Every minute and every second is filled with spectacular performances, every second and every minute is accompanied by dangerous passes, and shots are pouring out like promises from politicians...... So much so that the Spanish Reina and the Frenchman Lloris became the two most camera-grabbing on the field!
And as time passed, the scene gradually changed!
Liverpool, who have more tacit cooperation between players and more mature tactical ideas, are playing more and more smoothly, Newcastle gradually began to fail to keep up with the rhythm of the Reds, and the offensive of the black and white Magpies was gradually suppressed............ "...... Less than 20 minutes into the game, both sides have already kicked out real fire, whether it is in the stands or on the pitch, tonight's Anfield is full of sparks! However, such a scene is not good for Newcastle in comparison, and if they continue to play like this, the veteran Liverpool will soon break the deadlock! ”
In the TV commentary, Sester, a famous English national television celebrity who has always been a loyal fan of Crazy Lee, has a little worry in his tone.
This game has been considered by the public opinion to be very likely to be the myth of the madman Lee is not for no reason, Liverpool occupies almost all the favorable factors at the right time, place and people, if it were not for the madman Lee with his superb tactical change to deceive Benitez, and at the beginning of the game to use this slight advantage for Newcastle to "cheat" a goal, then the uncomfortable will definitely be the Magpies now...... Commentator partner Lineker agrees with Sester: "The only thing that makes Newcastle decide the outcome of the game now is the change in tactics of Crazy Lee, but I can't think of any way to restrain Liverpool, who are playing more and more smoothly in this situation......
…… If you change to another coach, there is really no way to reverse such a decline!
But who let Li Tongfan, a stuffy man, have the FM2009 system plus various cheating points and other anti-heaven existences in his hands?
Not a problem at all!
Lao Li decided to pour cold water on the morale and fighting spirit of the Liverpool players!
And the best thing to do, of course, is to score another goal or make the opponent's inevitable goal magically disappear...... This kind of method, Li Tongfan is the best at it!
【All-you-can-choose points】!
…… In the 40th minute of the game, the opportunity came!
Taking advantage of the gap between the dead ball, Li Tongfan gently explained a few words in the ear of Manzioni, who came to the sidelines to replenish water, and then patted the little guy on the shoulder: "Go, I want those media and fans who once doubted your strength to prove that in the ranks of great players, there is a guy named Michel Manzioni!" ”
Manzioni was infinitely excited to pat his bulging little chest and return to his place!
Forcing - The referee's whistle blew and Liverpool began to serve the ball on the sideline.
Full-back Aurelio threw the ball at the feet of Babel, who stepped forward to meet him, and the Dutch winger used a fancy back-heel jump feint past Fernando Gago, who was close to the defender, drawing a flurry of KOPs in the stands...... In the midst of the shouts and cheers, Babel knocked the ball across the middle, made a small one-two with Gerrard, easily erased Newcastle's left wing-back Gareth Bale and cut into it like a ghost along the sideline of the penalty area...... "It's dangerous!" Babel got into the Newcastle penalty area, the Magpies made a fatal mistake in their defence, and Gareth Bale was too risky to get up......"
on the field.
At this moment, Newcastle's penalty area became chaotic because of Babel's strong insertion!
The young players are bloody, energetic and full of energy, which is commendable for them, but the shortcomings are also obvious, and it is difficult for them to maintain their usual composure in the face of sudden crises when they have just entered the top flight...... And on the football field, this chaos is deadly, even if it is only for a brief moment, it is enough for a terrifying opponent like Liverpool to kill in one blow!
Babbel even had plenty of time to watch his team-mate's movements before skidding the ball before Newcastle centre-back Steven Taylor slid the ball away...... Diagonally behind, Gerald!
The ball clearly found what Babbel wanted him to touch, and Gerrard cut in from the middle to unleash the killing, and fired a shocking shot that slammed the ball towards goal...... Bang!
Shoot like a sword with a foot against the lawn!
The 21-year-old French goalkeeper Lloris fell to the ground in a hurry to make a save, and the ball touched his palm, but the force shook his entire arm...... The next moment, the football slowed down and jumped high...... However, the direction of the flight has not changed!
The "sword" has become a "hook", and the ultimate goal is still Newcastle's goal!
Newcastle goalkeeper Hugo Lloris had no time to get up and pounce back, only to watch as the white elf flickered towards the goal line...... At this moment, breathing stops, and the heart stops!
Time at Anfield seems to be tense and frozen!
Benitez on the sidelines threw away the notebook in his hand and rushed out of the command box with his neck stretched, and behind him were the Liverpool fans who were already boiling...... Everyone understands the importance of this shot!
And, the goal seems to be in the blink of an eye!
But...... A figure that had made Anfield's 59,000 Reds fans resent it where it should not have been, and with a somewhat panicked header, the football was held high in the air...... Manzioni!
In the midst of the uproar, there was only one sentence in Manzioni's mind - "...... Judging from this game, Liverpool's attacking tactics are the same as ours, and they rely heavily on wingers, so there will be a lot of crosses from the wings, remember, once they are forced into our box by their players, you have to play on the goal line as soon as possible, Gerrard, Torres and Robbie Keane all like to choose the left side of the goal for their shots, so ......"
And so it was!
If Gerrard's shot had been pushed to the right just now, Manzioni would have thought that he would never be sure to block the ball just now, and he is not a goalkeeper, so it will definitely be finished with his hands...... Just when Manzioni was still sighing, the exclamations in the stands rang out again...... Manzioni raised his head, and his pupils contracted instantly!
