Didier Drogba + Ruud van Nistelrooy + Ibrahimovic = Ismail!

The next day's headlines were almost exclusively the news of Ismael's crucial goal, even more so than Quaresma, who scored the winning goal in United's 2-1 home win over Everton. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Everybody knows the Red Rebels are in trouble, everybody knows that now is the best time to defeat the Red Rebels, they've just returned from a long expedition, and their physical fitness is being greatly challenged, so Allardyce is taking a more conservative defensive stance, even if it's on the home front."

'In the first 78 minutes, he did a very good job of tactics, and it could even be said that the Red Rebels could not do anything, but when Ismael came to his senses, all Newcastle's efforts were completely in vain.

'In the past, a lot of people said that Ismael had the physique and skill that he didn't lose to Drogba, but in yesterday's game, he showed the calmness in the box and the precision of his shots that didn't lose to Ruud van Nistelrooy.

"A moment ago, his best left-footed golden tail swing with a scorpion to control the ball in the hands of the team, and that foot pass was very brilliant and eye-catching; At the next moment, he was in the penalty area, using his right foot, which he was not good at, to unload, turn, volley, and play a rebound ball with great calmness, and the Newcastle goalkeeper could not save it at all! ”

'It was a brilliant goal, but it also showed Ismael's balance of left and right feet, and the progress he has made over the years, especially in the box, where his comparably calm shot is reminiscent of Ruud van Nistelrooy, the king of the box.

"I believe that after yesterday's game, Mourinho will not have any more headaches about Drogba going to the Africa Cup of Nations, because he has Ismail, a strong center forward who can even be said to strengthen Drogba, and such a good player, Mourinho has no reason to keep him on the bench, right?"

It has to be said that the media is always forgetful, always greedy for freshness, Ismael's goal at a crucial moment helped the Red Rebels take three points from St James's Park, so he immediately became the darling of the media, and they portrayed him as a savior.

However, as the coaching staff of the Red Rebels, it has to be seen that at other points in the game, Ismael's performance is actually inferior to Drogba, especially in the control of the game situation and the pressure of the opponent, Drogba is better than Ismael, which makes Drogba can play a greater role in the team's tactics.

Of course, there is no denying that Ismael has the potential to surpass Drogba, he is only 20 years old and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

It was for this reason that two days later, when the Red Rebels hosted Liverpool, Mourinho still chose to start the trident, leaving Ismael on the bench.

........................ "Carragher made a beautiful tackle, Aguero was knocked to the ground by the whole person, the ball was broken, the referee signaled that it was a reasonable collision, there was no foul, the game continued, and Liverpool launched a counterattack! ”

"Just past halfway, Curtis stepped up, pressed Torres hard, and cleared the ball with a header."

"It's been 78 minutes since the game got to the minute, except for the first 20 minutes, when both teams scored a goal each, and the rest of the time both sides failed to take advantage of their chances, with the Red Rebels having a certain advantage on the field, but Liverpool were not far behind, and Benitez clearly did not intend to give up midfield."

"Although Ronaldo, Messi and other players were rested against Newcastle, it still doesn't look good, Aguero is working very hard, but against Carragher and Daniel? Ag's center-back combination, he was like hitting an iron plate and failed to take advantage of the slightest advantage.

"Both sides fought fiercely in the midfield, and neither of them would give in easily, which made the game very intense!"

Jose Mourinho watched the situation on the pitch from the sidelines, Liverpool had already made two substitutions, one of which came in the 54th minute, when the Red Rebels attacked very fiercely and Liverpool were forced to make a change, replacing midfielder Benayoun with centre-back Hyypia, apparently to strengthen the defensive in central midfield.

Then, in the 72nd minute, Benitez replaced the wide youngster Babel, who assisted Torres in scoring a goal, with the more physical Kuyt, and the Dutchman was very active on the left as soon as he came on the field, firmly suppressing the right side of the Red Rebels, especially Alves.

The Red Rebels have made just one substitution, just after bringing on David Beckham for the in-form Cesc Fabregas, and the Spaniard is clearly out of form after a long journey, especially in the case of Steven Gerrard and Xavi? Alonso's team-up was frozen, and the performance was terrible.

"Ismail, 2 minutes to warm up!" Mourinho turned around and shouted towards the bench.

Ismael has been worried about the situation on the pitch, and the 1-1 scoreline did not satisfy the Red Rebels playing at home, and he also felt that Mourinho should make a last-minute substitution, but he did not expect to be replaced.

Jumping off the bench, Ismail took off his training shirt and sprinted back and forth to the side, doing a few warm-up moves before running back to Mourinho.

"It's all right, boss!" Ismail confidently says he is ready to play at any time.

Mourinho pointed to the direction of Liverpool's goal on the pitch, "After going up, nailed in the penalty area, I don't care what method you use, either score yourself or assist your teammates to score, you do it yourself, it's your responsibility, other than that, you don't have to think about anything, understand?" ”

Ismail nodded heavily, excited in his heart.

It's a testament to the fact that his status in Mourinho's mind is constantly rising, and the madman is now using him as the team's secret weapon to win, and if he can't be a regular player, he is at least a super sub.

Of course, if he wants to defend that position, he has to show that he can help the team, and the best way to do that is by scoring goals, or by assisting his teammates to score!

"Understood, Chief!" Ismael nodded heavily.

Jose Mourinho tapped him on the shoulder and told him to run to the sidelines to get ready to come on as a substitute.

........................ "Mourinho made the second substitution adjustment, he replaced the back Essien with a strong center Ismael, the Ghanaian midfielder still performed well in this game, and did a good job in midfield interception, Mourinho replaced him, more out of tactical considerations, replaced Ismail to strengthen the attack! ”

After Ismael came on the pitch, he played in the center forward position, and the tactics of the Red Rebels returned to the original 4231, with Ismael, Ronaldo, Messi and Aguero forming a magic quartet, and Beckham and De Rossi forming a double midfield.

After the Red Rebels' substitution, Liverpool also made a substitution one minute later, with Brazilian defender Lucas replacing the exhausted Aimar, and Benitez was clearly satisfied with the 1-1 draw away to the Red Rebels.

By the last 10 minutes, the fitness of the players on both sides had dropped dramatically, and except for a few substitutes who were able to run back and forth actively, the rest of the players were basically out of breath.

After Ismail came on the field, the Red Rebels' tactics immediately changed to starting from two wings, more to hit Ismail's head, you know, Ismail is 1.92 meters tall, 10 centimeters more than Carragher, 5 centimeters more than Ag, plus his strong body and excellent bouncing ability, so that he can suppress opponents in air dominance.

Liverpool also know this, so defensively avoid letting Ismael face the goal directly and then concentrate on defending the second point.

After a few attempts, Ismael didn't find a chance and shook his head at his teammates, apparently it wasn't working.

Liverpool now have a total of 5 defenders and 3 midfielders, almost all of whom are shrinking defensively, and are clearly determined to hold on to this scoreline.

After changing tactics, Ismael began to consciously retreat to help his teammates score, while Ronaldo, Aguero and Messi frequently stepped forward, and because there were not many opportunities, the Red Rebels attached great importance to offensive efficiency.

In an attack, Messi faced the defending Riser on the right side, and the cross hit the feet of Risser, out of the bottom line, forming a corner, I believe this will also be the last corner of this game, after all, the time has been 89 minutes.

Beckham came to the corner, wiped the football with his jersey, put it away seriously, and slowly stepped back.

Nemanja Vidic and Curtis were both in the Liverpool penalty area, one rushing forward and the other back, forming three highs in the box with Ismael.

Rafael Benitez was constantly signaling his players on the sidelines to pay attention to defensive corners, especially the marking of three of the Red Rebels' high-post players.

Beckham made a gesture with his right hand raised high and then quickly sent the ball away.

This corner kick is very fast and has a large arc, and it actually finds the back point directly.

Nemanja Vidic cut in from behind, but with Agger's interference, he had no chance to face the goal directly, so he jumped high against Beckham's incoming ball and slammed his header into the middle.

At this time, Xiao Xiaoluo and others had already withdrawn from the small penalty area at the moment of the corner kick, and the entire middle was exposed, Ismael used his strong body to suppress Gerrard, and half-turned and pumped the ball towards the goal with his left foot.

Reyna instinctively raised his hands, but the ball still hit the top of the netting.

The referee's whistle also sounded at the first time, and the goal was valid, 2:1!

Ismael was carried by Gerrard, and as soon as he saw that the goal was effective, he immediately ran to the sidelines excitedly, waved his hands all the way, came to the stands and turned around, hugged Vidic who was running all the way, and then kissed Vidic's forehead affectionately.

But soon, Ismail was thrown to the ground by his excited teammates.

'It was a crucial goal, it was a crucial goal, Ismail scored the winning goal for the Red Rebels again, it's been 90 minutes, there is not much suspense in the game, Ismail's goal gives the Red Rebels another three points!'

"Scoring key goals in two consecutive rounds, scoring in two consecutive rounds, bringing six points to the Red Rebels, Ismail has brought warmth to the Red Rebels fans in this cold winter, and he has become the key man for the Red Rebels!"

"Looking at Ismail's excited expression, watching Mourinho rushing over and scratching his hair affectionately, we seem to see the figure of a rising superstar, which reminds me of Messi back then, who also played the key role of the Red Rebels many times, and now he is one of the most recognizable stars in world football."

"Maybe in the next year or two, Ismael will continue to play the role of Drogba's substitute, but we have reason to believe that as long as he continues to develop at the current rate, with his strength and potential, in the near future, he will definitely become England, Europe, the best super center forward in the world, and he will become one of the indispensable players of the Red Rebels!"

Seeing the red rebels celebrating happily, Benitez looked helpless and unwilling.

He and his team worked very hard in this game, he originally thought that one point was in hand, but unexpectedly, in the last moment, Ismael's goal helped the Red Rebels to exceed the score again, and Liverpool's hopes of winning points away from home were dashed.

Benitez looked up at the stands and smiled bitterly, he knew very well that after losing this game, the outside world was expected to criticize him for his conservatism, especially criticizing him for his conservative tactics of five defenders and three midfielders at the end of the second half, but those guys who stood and talked without back pain would understand the strong pressure in the face of the Red Rebels.

Benitez dared to say that looking at the whole of Europe, the team that dared to play against the Red Rebels with real knives and guns, I don't know what will happen in the future, but at least he has not been born yet, so he doesn't think that when playing against the Red Rebels, it is wrong to be conservative, on the contrary, not paying attention to defense is a tactical failure.

Of course, although he emphasizes defense, it does not mean that he does not pay attention to counterattacks, so in the first 20 minutes of the first half, although his team was scored, it did not take long to get the score back, and he also grasped the situation on the field very well, did not give the Red Rebels much advantage, and in the second half, the Red Rebels went crazy, and he began to pay attention to defense.

There was nothing wrong with all this, what was really wrong was that his players made a big mistake in the last of a dozen corners in the game, and they were caught by Ismael and scored a goal that made his 1 point come to naught, and that's it.

Although he was unwilling, Benitez couldn't help it, because after the Red Rebels players came back from celebration, the referee stopped two minutes of stoppage time and then ended the game.

The Red Rebels fans at the scene were very excited, after all, they only exceeded the score again at the last moment in this game, which can be said to be a narrow victory, and the opponent is still a hard stubble like Liverpool, which is really commendable.

Mourinho glanced at Cassel when the players were celebrating on the field, and they saw that the other party was happy, after all, winning Newcastle and Liverpool, the Red Rebels were tantamount to a better start to the devil's schedule!
