Chapter 188: The goal doesn't count
Chelsea captain John Brown. John Terry won and won the kick-off, and then the game began with a whistle from Turkish referee Kiel.
Didier Drogba, who had returned from suspension, kicked the ball to Jonker to start the game, and the latter flicked the ball back to Frank Lampard, who was quick to cut forward, while winger Duff also moved slightly forward and pressed over the halfway line.
As soon as the game started, Chelsea put on a big attacking posture and attacked and attacked, this is Anfield!
The Reds can do that, but Chelsea have unexpectedly launched an attack, and it seems that only by attacking can the opponent be submissive!
Before the game, the head coach Mourinho also arranged this, and the Portuguese changed his steady style and let the team attack aggressively, which is also the trust of the 'madman' in the attacking ability of the team under him.
The manager has set up a stage for Jonker to return to the media, and the rest will depend on the performance of Chelsea's number 25!
Liverpool's approach to Jonker is actually nothing new, many people cover the defense, and use all means to stop the brats who are ashamed before the game, and there are many people who can score, but Jonk can't stand up.
As soon as Hyypia came up, he used his flying shovel to declare that he was the biggest obstacle to Jonker, don't look at Hyypia is not fierce, more like an honest man, but if you judge people by their appearance before the game, it would be a big mistake, a professional player who can appear in the Champions League and can gain a foothold in the Premier League's quasi-giants, which one is a good person.
Hyypia, which seems harmless, is actually very violent. He may be a personable man off the field, but when he comes to the field he is a nightmare for his opponents and a fierce opponent.
Jonk stood up and didn't complain anything. expected this to be the case, and he figured it out, the opponent focused on dealing with him, which shows that they are afraid, afraid of his goals, and defend heavily, isn't this the test of dreams?
Come on! Chelsea's No.25 has a scrappy look in his eyes. At the same time, it also quieted down the Chinese fans who were far away in the east, just now they were still scolding the shameless actions of their opponents, but at the moment they were staring at the live broadcast screen. Waiting to watch the show, only those beautiful pseudo-fans are still muttering a few words, if Hyypia can sense it, a whole sneezing will not be enough to pay off the debt.
See this happens. The 'madman' Mourinho on the sidelines showed a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth. Obviously mocking Benitez's wishful thinking has been recognized, the previous method of dealing with Jonk may not work now, that kid's progress is terrifying!
That's right, even Jose Mourinho is terrified, such players are improving every day, training like crazy, not to mention the problems of private life at night. On the training pitch alone, Jonker is a model for all professional players.
How terrifying is it? You can't experience the power of that attack at all without your own experience, and in the heart of this Portuguese, there is a feeling that this kid will definitely become an invincible presence on the field in the future!
Isn't the three-man bag just the problem that Jonk wants to solve! Mourinho will be interested to see what kind of new answer Jonk will give.
In the opening 5 minutes, frequent mistakes on both sides, obviously both the Red Army and the Blues were a little embarrassed by the current situation, with fast play, natural mistakes are many, no one would have thought before the game, the new chapter of the red and blue battle will be such a prologue, very crazy, people dare not relax at all, for fear of missing the wonderful picture after a distraction.
The civil war in the Premier League, in the Champions League, has played beyond the level of the Premier League, the Premier League is fast, but it is never fast to such a point, the offensive and defensive conversion is dizzying, the two teams are running wildly, and the crazy shouts of Liverpool fans are just cheering for all the players on the field, and at this moment no one of the players of the two teams can hear the original deafening sound.
Engrossed, the players are the same, the spirit is highly nervous, and those who watch the game dare not be distracted, especially in the middle of the game.
Seeing this situation, Benitez on the bench immediately got up and ran to the sidelines to direct the team's defense, obviously he was also very concerned about this game.
Raphael. Benitez was still a threat to Liverpool's players, and when he stood on the sidelines, yelling at the team's formation, Liverpool's defence immediately solidified and the players' mistakes were reduced by half.
However, Mr Nenitez seems to have forgotten that this is at Anfield Stadium and there are countless fans, so he should be calm, all the Liverpool players don't need to say it, they know what it means to play, and at Anfield, the Reds will always be the Reds.
Chelsea are unusual, and they don't know how long such a crazy style of play will last, but the Reds fans have booed the Blues from time to time.
Jonk had even heard the invective, which was so annoying, and after the loud invective, there were quite a few fans laughing together.
You can't hear it when you have the ball, and when you don't have the ball at your feet, it's really a bit harsh.
Chelsea were still attacking aggressively, and in the middle, Jonker's frequent dribbling breakthroughs showed the Liverpool players the truth that 'there is no man under the fame', at least the defenders who declared before the game that they wanted to give him a good look failed to cut off the football at his feet. On both wings, Duff's frequent assists also caused great problems for Liverpool's defense.
Originally, Benitez had given Jonker enough attention today, and what happened in the 14th minute of the first half proved that such attention did not seem to be enough.
Frank Lampard picked up the ball on the flank, and in the face of Liverpool's half-way interception, he made two one-twos with Jonker, brought the ball near the halfway line, and then took advantage of the moment to squeeze the ball straight into the feet of Jonker, who was cut in at the back.
As a striker, the overall situation may not be the most important, what Jonk needs to pay attention to is how to break through the opponent's goal, after getting the ball, the world is quiet, the most reasonable rhythm, the best breakthrough route, the direction of the possible ball, but Jonk didn't think about others at the moment, and directly changed direction and took the ball from the right side after crossing the halfway.
Mourinho on the field saw this scene and patted his head helplessly, the situation at that time. As long as Jonker splits the ball, Drogba will have a certain chance, and Jonk has to dribble the ball himself, and the space is too small. There won't be too good results, but this is one of Jonker's biggest fatal flaws, the big picture!
In the past, when he played as a central defender, there was a hint of development in that kid, but now it seems that other abilities have been strengthened, the overall picture is constantly declining, and modern football has been constantly weakening individual play. Everything is a whole, and the reason why Mourinho has allowed Jonker to gradually put himself in a stable starting position for so long is to see Jonker's growth in this regard. It hasn't appeared for a long time, but other aspects have grown beyond ignorance.
There's consistency, there's the determination to score goals, there's the body. There is speed. Everything seems to be there, just a little bit of it, all the eternal sudden improvement, Mourinho knows that maybe this may need an accumulation, and he can't be in a hurry, but I don't know if he can wait until that day, and the crisis is shrouded in this seemingly beautiful manager.
However, these are all things to consider later. On the field at this point, Jonk was in the middle of a quick dribble. The two emergency stops in disguise, directly put the pre-game exit of the arrogant Sammy. Hyypia was left far behind, and even the latter's annoyed back-tackle was completely useless.
Jonk didn't pay attention to Hyypia, who was panting and still foul language behind him, but took advantage of a mistake by the Liverpool defender, and accurately stuffed the ball to Essien who was inserted in the middle, and then ran to the right corner of the penalty area and stopped, glanced at Essien, and then quickly threw off the defender and ran towards the goal.
At the same moment, Essien passed the ball and made a precise through ball, and the ball was directly attached to the turf, rolling right in front of Jonker, and stabbing !!! The Blues fans in the crowd seemed to have seen Chelsea's lead, and even some fans were celebrating with each other, yes, they were believing too much in the black-haired boy on the pitch, and a single shot was almost equal to the goal that was about to appear, and did not disappoint the fans off the pitch, facing the attacking goalkeeper Reina, he sent the ball into the net with a steady lob.
"Beep......
"GOOO......OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The Reds fans in the stadium stopped shouting, their throats seemed to be choked by something, they looked at the stadium in surprise, and suddenly broke out into a huge cheer, just because the referee Kiel actually signaled that the goal was invalid and offside first, and the result of the penalty that the goal was invalid directly made the Blues fans in the audience angry "black whistle black whistle".
"Oh God! Damn home, you must have something wrong with your eyes! ”
"How many pounds did you charge!"
……
The fans in the East were even more thrilled than the Blues fans in the field.
"Turtle Grandson"
"Ya, looking for a draw!"
"Uncle, if you cause my daughter-in-law to have tears, I will make your head pus and sores on the soles of your feet! Don't cry, my dear, I'll step on the villain tomorrow! ”
"Guys, are you still angry? Our store temporarily launched a special tailor version of the villain series of socks, not breathable, but for foot odor, do not step on the villain to death, as long as 5 yuan, two pairs of free shipping! ”
At this time, the big screen on the field also played back the scene in slow motion......
"Let's see, at the moment of Essien's pass, ......, oh my God, at this time, the positions of Jonk and Reeser are almost the same, and only the corner of the clothes is slightly out of bounds, this kind of ball can generally be judged or not, is it that Mr. Linesman is as wise as a torch, and he can even see this slightest difference, what a genius!"
Lineker's words are obviously dissatisfied with this decision, in a normal game, this kind of ball will not be ruled offside at all, the meaning of his words is self-evident There is evidence of slow-motion replay on the big screen, and the hearts of Blues fans are even more unbalanced, although this is at Anfield, but the guy from Turkey can't do it! And now, the goal seems to show that the referee on the pitch is biased in favor of Liverpool, how can they live with it?
In fact, what happened to the referee was completely raised by the linesman, and the referee just chose to believe in his partner, but he became the culprit at the moment, so the referee Aston got more angry scolding, all kinds of foul language, personal attacks, threats and intimidation words, filled the entire stadium. Even his eighteen-generation ancestors have been taken care of, and if Chelsea lose, perhaps he should pay more attention to his personal safety after the game!
The referee was a little wronged. But who cares about those at this time, if you don't blow it, there will be no trouble!
Not only England's specialty football hooligans, that is the opportunity for Chinese fans to go crazy yet, watching the slow motion, Huaxia is even more passionate!
"Chop him a villain's hand, chop his villain's mouth, let him blow"
"Daughter-in-law Barbie brought it. I'm going to prick the villain."
Jonk looked at the referee and didn't say anything, he understood. Regardless of the facts, the referee's decision will not be changed, at most it will only be appealed after the game to vent his frustration. Maybe the most you can get is an apology. But this is useless for the game, and the referee's decision cannot be changed, especially after the game.
"It's okay, it's only been 10 minutes now, and there are still more opportunities, so let's go in again." Without waiting for his teammates to come up to comfort him, Jonk spread his hands and said directly.
As the captain of the team, John. Terry also came up and said something morale-boosting. "If we continue, the opponent's defense can't hold our attack at all. There are many opportunities, what are you afraid of! After saying that, he turned to look at Jonk with a smile and said, "We have this kid, he can still score, Haluha." ”
"Haluha, yes, we can still score"
Referee Kiel blew away the goal, and the Chelsea players were not too entangled, but shouted for another goal in the Liverpool half, which caused all the Liverpool players to look angrily, if the eyes can really kill, it is estimated that the players who stayed in the Chelsea frontcourt represented by Jonk have died countless times.
According to this calculation, the current referee, Mr. Kiel, is the true god who has survived thousands of tribulations
.
After a 0-0 draw with Chelsea, Liverpool will unsurprisingly finish top of Group G, and manager Rafael Benitez is pleased with this, saying Liverpool's performance deserved to be top of the group, and they played very well.
Liverpool will be seeded as one of eight teams in the future last-16 knockout draw, which Benitez believes is the result of the Reds' efforts. 'Yes, we fully deserved to be top of the group because we had more points than the other teams, we didn't do badly, we kept a clean sheet again and we created a couple of good chances on the counter-attack.
Rafa Benitez has already begun to say what should have been said in first place, but everyone knows that the basic truth is that Chelsea are three points down and it will be difficult for Chelsea to catch up with Liverpool.
Although Liverpool had the lower possession throughout the game, their defence appeared solid and did not give Chelsea too many chances. In the second half, the Blues tried to put pressure on their opponents with a more direct style of play, but Liverpool withdrew. 'It was very important for us to be able to control the midfield but in the second half it was more difficult to do that because Chelsea started playing long balls, but the good thing was that we were working very hard defensively and we should enjoy it.
In the 23rd minute of the first half, Chelsea's Essien made a dangerous move when he kicked Liverpool midfielder Hamann's knee, and Benitez expressed his frustration with the hurtful move in his own way. "Look at the footage and then you'll come to your own conclusions, I don't want to talk about something that couldn't be clearer, I saw that stampede, I saw what Haman's leg was kicked into, but now we can't change that."
Hamann, who was kicked, also said that Essien's kick was too hard. 'I was ready to take the ball and I think his [Essien's] leg went over the ball and it went a little below my knee and the referee didn't see it, but anyway, you have to keep playing. It was probably the hardest kick I've ever received, and I was really scared that my leg was broken, but it was just some bruising. 'In addition to Essien's kick, Liverpool's Sissoko had a similarly dangerous move when he stepped on Goodjanssen. Fortunately, the emotions of both sides did not intensify further, and a larger conflict was avoided.
Liverpool centre-back Carragher believes this will be somewhat beneficial for the subsequent knockout rounds. "It's not a win, but we echo what a lot of people have said, and sometimes you can't be unscrupulous, it's football, and no one can defy the opponent before the game!"
Liverpool's defence has become a "phenomenon". In the Premier League, they are the best defensively scorching team. There have been 10 clean sheets in 13 games, more than Chelsea, who are known for their defence (nine clean sheets), and it's worth mentioning. Liverpool are unbeaten in their last nine matches (seven wins, two draws) and have conceded a clean sheet, with the last time the Reds were breached was a little over two months ago against Fulham.
Under Benitez's tutelage, Liverpool's defense has gradually taken shape, and the personnel are solid. Excellent overall coordination, all this gave the Red Army an invincible basis. In last season's Champions League, Liverpool staged a desperate counterattack with passion in the final. But on the way to the finals before, their biggest weapon was defense. In the Alps, they struggled Juventus for 90 minutes, with the Bianconeri suffering the same dilemma as Jose Mourinho. In the semi-finals in two legs. They didn't allow Chelsea to score even a single goal.
In this game, Benitez has already shown that defense is the focus in terms of personnel arrangement. In midfield, Hamann and Sissoko form a central barrier with Steven Gerrard on the right and Reese on the left, and it will not be easy to break down their barrier. Judging from the current situation, as long as Liverpool want to defend, they will most likely be able to defend. The only exception came at 4-1, when Rafael Benitez was tempted to eat Chelsea in one bite. However, because of the rashness, he left a fatal gap for the opponent in the backfield.
All seemed to have forgotten that Jonker's goal was blown away and the biggest pressure at the moment was all directed at the two, Mourinho and Jonker.
Second in the group, Chelsea will meet the top of the group in the knockout round, and everyone knows that it will be a strong encounter, and no one knows what will happen next.
What if it's Barcelona! UEFA won't make Chelsea feel good, needless to say, Chelsea themselves know it.
Mourinho pointed the finger at the referee Kiel, "I don't know what he thought at the time, everyone knew that it was a good goal, but he didn't seem to understand, the goal is gone, the group is gone, this kind of thing often happens to a championship team, shouldn't this be noticed?" ”
Appeals are necessary, but the results cannot be changed, and although Mourinho's words have relieved the pressure on himself and the team, it is not clear how UEFA will respond, and it is uncertain whether a ban will be given.
Jonker's life was even more difficult, his words before the game made him a man of the hour, and the media didn't care what Jonk's attitude was, and he had already defined him as a player who could only talk big, an arrogant boy.
Private life and performance on the field are even more mixed, adding fuel and vinegar to the hype, playing football is not good, and the off-field lace is constant, this is the image that the media has recently given to Jonker, want to reverse?
I'm sorry, but at least wait until after the next game to show the public!
However, it is not without good news.
The first football boot that Jonk and Nike have collaborated on is about to come out, "Hercules"!
The name is very in line with Jonker's style, don't look at the name sounds very powerful, but in fact, Nike has used the latest technology this time to lighten and improve speed as much as possible.
The most important thing is that this series focuses on the Asian market and is designed for Asian feet, which has attracted the attention of many Chinese fans for a while.
People who really like football and often experience it personally know that international sports brands such as Nike and Adi are more European in the design of football boots, and the boots are long and narrow, while the Asian feet are somewhat wide and have a high ventral surface.
Belonging to the Hercules of Asia, Nike bluntly said the biggest selling point of this series in the early publicity.
The market for football boots has always been in Europe, and now in Asia, especially in China, football boots and even football equipment are far behind, Nike is also a bold attempt, Jonke's popularity in China needless to say, can it drive football equipment!
Testing the waters is a must, and the Hercules series came into being with a unique mission.
Jonke's special customized version of the boots has been in the hands of the players, the shape design is not exaggerated, some retro, with black as the main color, the lightweight shoe body allows the wearer, but in an instant to feel the blessing of the top technology, the maximum speed in an instant, the wrapping feeling is first-class, the boots and the foot surface of the perfect fit, but there is a touch of gold LOGO in the low-key to show luxury.
The design idea that fully fits the aesthetics of the Chinese people shows Nike's sincerity and determination. (To be continued......)
