"All three points?"

At the pre-match press conference against Liverpool, reporters were surprised by Jose Mourinho's declaration. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Anyone can tell what trouble the Red Rebels are in at the moment, and anyone with an eye can guess that the team has been under tremendous pressure in recent times, with them playing two games more than their opponents, as well as a Carabao Cup in which Jose Mourinho wanted to give up and play in the youth team, only to emerge with an unexpected victory.

Don't underestimate these 2 games, during the winter break of almost 3 days to play one game, playing 2 more games is absolutely fatal, enough to make the strongest team vulnerable, especially to travel 16,000 kilometers back and forth and survive a 30-hour flight.

The Red Rebels dropped back-to-back points after the Club World Championship to be expected, but they couldn't afford to help the Red Rebels at all, except for a torturous sigh.

Perhaps the Red Rebels can breathe a sigh of relief after playing this game against Aston Villa, but then Drogba, Essien and Mikel will play in the Africa Cup of Nations, which is undoubtedly worse for the Red Rebels, who are now short of major generals.

But in such an unfavorable situation, Mourinho shouted that he wanted to win Liverpool, which has to be said to be very surprising, but it is also understandable that Portuguese madmen have always been the lord who is not afraid of heaven and earth.

"Yes, don't doubt what I said, my players came to Anfield with only one goal, and that was three points!"

England journalists were so enthusiastic about Mourinho's aggressive tone that they swarmed up and asked for details about the game, such as what tactics Mourinho intended to adopt at Anfield.

Mourinho has all given proof of proof, saying that the Red Rebels will stick to their football philosophy at Anfield and will never defend and counter-attack as they are claimed, and he hopes to win with a good football game.

"In our Red Rebel dictionary, there is never a word conservative!"

........................ "For Jose Mourinho, we have to admit that this is a manager who always surprises us! ”

In the live broadcast of Liverpool's focus game against the Red Rebels, Andy? Gray was surprised by the starting line-up and tactics that Mourinho had put in place.

In this game, the Red Rebels still adhered to the team's usual 4231 tactics, the goalkeeper was Cech, the back line from left to right were Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Curtis and Alves, the double back was Beckham and Essien, the front was Kaka, the two wingers were Ronaldo Jr. and Robben, and the forward was Drogba.

Mourinho's counter-attack in order to get points from Anfield, as previously speculated by the media, did not materialize, and although the Red Rebels were passive on the pitch after the opening, their performance was not conservative at all.

"The game went on for 20 minutes, the Red Rebels were all at a disadvantage, Liverpool firmly occupied the initiative on the field, but could not break through the Red Rebels' goal for a while, but Mourinho did not choose to defend conservatively, but adopted more proactive and active tactics to deal with Liverpool."

Martin? Taylor shook his head and sighed, "However, judging from the process of the game, the Red Rebels players still have not adjusted from the continuous battles, and the state of the players is not excited enough, which leads to a lot of mistakes after the Red Rebels open, on the other hand, Liverpool, knowing that you have a strong defense in the middle, they are more likely to play the side of the Red Rebels." ”

The starting lineup arranged by Benitez for this game is also unexpected, goalkeeper Reina, and the backline from left to right are Jimmy? Traore, Hyypia, Carragher and Finnan, with Xavi at the back? Alonso and Hamann, Aymar up front, Risse and Gerrard in the wingers, and Cisse in the lone striker.

Since the start of the game, Liverpool have launched several attacks from the middle and created a lot of threats, but the Red Rebels are very strong in the middle, and the double back of Essien and Beckham is even more desperate to protect the defence, which makes Liverpool get few opportunities in the middle.

Seeing the Red Rebels' tough defense in the middle, Benitez waved his banner, and the team began to play on the wings, among which Gerrard and Reese took turns to attack the two wings of the Red Rebels, and in Alonso's scheduling, as well as Aimar's response and command, Liverpool launched wave after wave of attacks against the Red Rebels.

"The game is firmly in the hands of Liverpool, it is difficult for the Red Rebels to organize an effective attack and counterattack, according to the current situation, as long as Liverpool maintains the current trend, it is a matter of time before the Red Rebels break through the Red Rebels' goal!"

As he was talking, Gerrard suddenly cut into the middle with the ball from the right side, crossed diagonally into the penalty area, and Aimar quickly inserted it in the middle, but was predicted by Curtis in advance and fell to the ground to clear the ball.

"This attack is dangerous, fortunately, Curtis judged the ball in advance, otherwise, if Aimar catches the ball and faces the goal directly, then the Red Rebels will be in danger!" Andy? Gray was a little stunned.

But before he could finish his words, Liverpool's offensive was back again.

Gerrard followed Evra like a shadow, in a Beckham return pass, he suddenly rushed out from the side, after breaking the ball, quickly stepped forward, but crashed into Vidic, although injured, but the Serb still desperately carried Gerrard with his body, not allowing Gerrard to easily enter the penalty area, but the latter's cross hit Vidic, out of the bottom line, corner kick!

Reese came to the corner on the right to take the corner, the Red Rebels were in the penalty area, and Mourinho stepped out of the dugout, frequently directing the players on the pitch to stand and defend.

Liverpool's set-piece scoring ability is very strong, and it is also a scoring weapon this season, and the Red Rebels have to defend!

"Curtis, keep an eye on the front!" Petr Cech pointed to Carragher in front of him.

Curtis went up, but Carragher grabbed the position, and at this time, Reese's corner kick was released, and Curtis had no choice but to get stuck behind Carragher and interfere with him.

However, Carragher was clearly not ready to score himself, as his aftermath told him that Cech had blocked the spot, only to see him flick the ball over to the back post before Gerrard, in a red shirt, suddenly slapped his horse from the left and volleyed it into the ball.

But this kick was close at hand, and the goal was bound to win, but before entering the goal, Cech was forced to punch the ball out, and it turned out that the latter had already transferred it quickly when Carragher's header was ferried.

"Beautiful, a world-class save, Peter? Petr, the magical play of the Czech goalkeeper at this time, to ensure that the Red Rebels do not lose the goal! "Andy? Gray exclaimed.

Just when everyone thought Gerrard's shot was on target, and just when the fans in the stands at Anfield almost stood up to celebrate Gerrard's goal, Cech made a magical save to knock Gerrard's shot out.

Patrice Evra on the left took the ball and cleared it directly with a big foot to defuse one of Liverpool's attacks.

"It's so tenacious! The Red Rebels defused Liverpool's offensive again and again with tenacious fighting spirit, and although they were at a disadvantage, although they were at a disadvantage in all aspects, they did not lose their fighting spirit and still tried their best. ”

When he saw that several attacks were difficult to break through the Red Rebels' goal, Gerrard moved to the right, and Liverpool's attack also began to tilt to the right, Gerrard frequently created threats on the right side, and sent the ball into the Red Rebels' penalty area with several crosses, but the Red Rebels' penalty area was not chaotic at all.

Vidic performed steadily in the penalty area, especially in terms of defending high-altitude balls, and judged well, pushing Gerrard's cross out of the box again and again, while Curtis did a good job in preventing the second point, and the duo seemed to be particularly tacit.

........................ "Looks like something isn't going well, Jose!" Cassel came to Mourinho's side with some concern.

Mourinho nodded coldly, but his eyes were always on the field, Liverpool's offensive was too fierce, and the Red Rebels were completely passive, if they continued like this, it would be a matter of time before they were scored.

In fact, if it weren't for the excellent performances of the likes of Nemanja Vidic, Petr Cech and Curtis, the Red Rebels would have conceded a goal long ago, and as the game progressed, the fitness of the likes of Essien would have been further depleted, and it would have been even more disadvantageous for the Red Rebels.

"Jim, let David and Michael retreat to the front of the line, plan ahead!" Mourinho said decisively.

Before this game, Mourinho and the coaching staff made all the preparations for what might happen on the pitch, and even made assumptions about conceding goals and conceding a few goals, and now the game is less than 30 minutes into play, and the Red Rebels have not conceded a goal, which is already good in the pre-match estimates.

But Mourinho knows very well that this situation is the result of the unremitting hard work of every player of the Red Rebels, they almost did their best to bite Liverpool, and every player did their best to get this balance, so there is not much time left for Mourinho.

The double back retreated, the three lines of the Red Rebels retracted in an orderly manner, and suddenly Liverpool's offensive was contained, and at this time, there were two roads in front of Benitez, first, continue to play steadily, but it is difficult to ensure that after the Red Rebels breathe a sigh of relief, it is difficult for Liverpool to make a difference, and the second is to press on and continue to maintain pressure on the Red Rebels.

After a brief moment of reflection, Benitez motioned for his team to press.

Seeing that the goal is about to be scored, there is no need for a final kick, Benitez does not want to give the Red Rebels a chance to revivenation, the best way to solve the battle is Liverpool's goal, the Red Rebels fell short, and finally fell short.

It can be said that no matter what choice Benitez makes, there is nothing wrong with it, but the Red Rebels are gritting their teeth and holding on, as long as they are scored again, they will be finished, but the last breath before this is finished is particularly stiff.

In the 32nd minute, after Aimar received Cisse's knockback, he suddenly shot from outside the penalty area, and Cech stretched his body again to save Aimar's long-range shot from the bottom line and form a corner.

Reese was again on the spot, and the Red Rebels retreated back into the box to take part in the defence.

This time Reese's corner was directed towards the back post, but Nemanja Vidic was solid enough to clear the ball before Hyypia and Essien got in front of Hamann and cleared it with a big foot.

Liverpool pressed hard and there were two full-backs left behind, the ball closer to Liverpool's left, and Robben suddenly activated when Essien cleared the ball and chested the ball before the tall Traore.

Traore is 1.91 meters tall, has excellent header ability, and tackles fiercely, but he is not flexible enough, Robben used a feint after receiving the ball, easily shook off a position, accelerated past Traore, and dribbled straight to the Liverpool goal.

At this time, the little Luo on the left side had already followed, and there was only one Finnan left in the entire Liverpool defense, constantly retreating into the penalty area, but the counterattack speed of the Red Rebels was too fast, so fast that Finnan found that he could not retreat anymore, so he pounced on Robben with the ball, but when he leaned over, Robben passed diagonally to the left.

The next thing became simple, Xiao Xiao Luo received the ball and faced Reina alone, the latter attacked, but Xiao Xiao Luo was easily shaken, and then even the ball crashed into Liverpool's goal, 0:1!

The scene turned into a stage of celebration for the Red Rebels, who numbered less than 2,000 and were the Liverpool fans, who still couldn't accept the reality of conceding a goal.

Didn't Liverpool go on the spree just now? Why did you fall behind all of a sudden?

"It was premeditated, it was Mourinho's conspiracy, absolutely!" Martin? Taylor burst out laughing.

"By dropping back in the back, giving up a large area of space up front, attracting Liverpool to press, in exchange for space to counter-attack, Benitez must be depressed, his team controlled the game, but conceded a goal because of this mistake!"

"Jimmy? Traore had to take responsibility for the goal he conceded, he was too easily swept past Robben, and as a result, it directly caused the Red Rebels to play 2 to 1 in the front, and Liverpool was completely passive. ”

"Benitez is too depressed, seeing that Liverpool is about to score, and seeing that the Red Rebels are about to die, but at this time, because of a mistake, the Red Rebels played a counterattack, which directly caused the goal to be lost, and he has 10,000 reasons to express his dissatisfaction and vent on the current situation!"

Martin? Taylor, on the other hand, was full of joy as a Red Rebels fan, and as a Red Rebels fan, he was full of praise for the Red Rebels' lead, especially Mourinho's on-the-spot command and dispatch for this game.

It should be said that Mourinho and Benitez did not make mistakes, and the command of both was wrong, and the only bad thing about Liverpool was that the red rebels they encountered were so tenacious, so tenacious that even if they only had their last breath left, they were so difficult to defeat that Liverpool was able to muster up all their strength to defeat their opponents and neglect to counterattack.

However, the Red Rebels have only managed to take a lead, and with only 35 minutes now, Liverpool still have plenty of time to equalise or even reverse.

"The Red Rebels, who were at a disadvantage, scored first, but Liverpool immediately returned the color and launched a more crazy and ferocious attack, wanting to get back the score and score, we can expect that the game has just started so far!"

Yes, the real test is just here!

Mourinho has a clear understanding of this!
