Chapter 479 The Changes brought by Benitez

Benites, who was standing on the sidelines, suddenly became angry and waved his fists angrily protested.

In his first season as Liverpool head coach, Benitez consciously brought great changes to the team, but the team's record in the Premier League has not changed much.

Last season, the Reds won 11 wins, 9 draws and 7 losses and scored 42 points, ranking fourth in the league. This season, Benitez's Liverpool had 13 wins, 4 draws and 10 losses and scored 43 points, ranking fifth in the league. With 1 point in the same period, the ranking was one lower.

Competitive football is so cruel. Even if your team plays well, if the record is poor and the championships won, the head coach will inevitably be questioned, especially a giant team like Liverpool that is at a low point. Although a season has not ended, Liverpool's management has already questioned him, the UEFA Cup champion.

Benitez is eager to win a championship, and this League Cup is the one he is most sure of.

But now, his team has suffered a heavy blow just as the game begins, which almost means the end of his dream of winning the championship.

Of course, as an experienced professional football coach, Benitez is not unable to accept the team's loss, but he cannot accept that his team fell under the referee's hands at the beginning!

He does not accept such a result and will never!

……………………

Benitez roared angrily, and he was extremely dissatisfied with the referee's penalty.

Before coming to the Premier League, he only heard that Manchester United was well-careeded by referees in the Premier League, but he did not experience it himself. However, he has been in Liverpool for almost a season, but he has seen a lot.

Ferguson was also as excited as him, and the old man was also waving his fists. This was not a protest, but a celebration.

The penalty kick was scored early in the game against Liverpool, which was undoubtedly a very good result.

Although he did not see clearly what happened in the penalty area with his position, he would not care whether it was a fake fall or a real foul. Since the referee called a foul and a penalty kick, it was a penalty kick!

Slow motion shows that Hypiya stretched her feet and did trip Ronaldo, and then Cristiano Ronaldo fell to the ground. Some people may say that this slight contact is not enough to cause Cristiano Ronaldo to fall to the ground, but who is asking Hypiya to stretch her feet and he did trip to Ronaldo.

Leinker shook his head and said, "Hepia tripped Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese fell to the ground. According to the rules, this is a penalty kick, and there is no problem at all."

The Liverpool people are very angry, but if you want to blame, you can only blame Haipiya for being reckless. Haipiya is also very aggrieved. If he doesn't make any foot to intercept, Ronaldo will just take a single shot, and he has no choice.

……………………

Liverpool's goal was messy, and Reds players were protesting the penalty.

Manchester United people are celebrating.

The referee Bennett seemed to have communicated with the lineman again for the sake of safety because of the strong protests from the Liverpool players and finally maintained the penalty.

Ronaldo personally took the penalty kick he created.

The whistle sounded, Ronaldo assisted, and he shot low in the lower right corner. Dudek judged the right direction, but the ball shot at a fast speed and a tricky angle, so he was unable to dive into the football.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAALLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

"Royce scored a penalty kick! 1:0! Manchester United led! Manchester United took the lead just three minutes into the game, and they got a fantastic start."

On the court, Ronaldo excitedly celebrated the goal. He ran to the sidelines and made the move to kiss the team logo on the jersey.

This celebration action by Manchester United's talented star won great cheers from nearly 40,000 Manchester United fans on the scene.

Ferguson was also very happy on the sidelines. The result was really a surprise. He had the intention to give up the championship, but he didn't expect the team to score so early.

Leading 1:0, a fantasy start, which made Manchester United's subsequent games easier.

This is an excellent start for Manchester United, who is good at playing defensive counterattacks.

……………………

Benitez was very upset and mumbled in his mouth, which was definitely not a good thing. He knew that the game was difficult to play.

Look at Manchester United's midfield offensive players, Yin Jun, Ronaldo, and Alan Smith, who are all very fast and have a strong impact. This is specially prepared for a fast counterattack. Another Van Nicht is not slow, and his ability to grasp opportunities is super strong, which also poses a great threat to Liverpool's defense.

Benitez shouted the name of the team captain Gerald into the field and made a gesture.

The game continued, and Liverpool soldiers did not lose their position because of losing the ball early. They tenaciously dealt with Manchester United. The main players played with fierce presses to limit Manchester United's offensive, and soon gained the advantage in the field. Manchester United played a little passively.

A few minutes later, referee Bennett stopped the game again and then showed a yellow card to Weiss Brown.

Ferguson frowned. The central defender received a yellow card so early, which was not great. He realized that he was a little overly optimistic.

The 0:1 behind Liverpool did not perform too impatiently.

"This is an experienced team." John Mortson praised Liverpool's performance.

……………………

Five minutes later, Weis Brown took the ball in the backcourt. He made a mistake when passing the ball to Fletcher, and his strength was reduced. Morientes made a quick steal and successfully intercepted the ball.

Morientes intercepted the ball and entered the penalty area. Although Ferdinand tried his best to make up the ball and tackle the ball away, Riser, who followed up, took the lead and the ball went straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!”

"Riser! Norwegian midfielder scored a shot in the penalty area, and Liverpool equalized the score!"

"Liverpool has great experience in performing, they did not panic, and quickly seized Manchester United's turnover and tied the score."

...

Ferguson was very annoyed. He felt something was wrong when Weis Brown received the yellow card. Sure enough, the Liverpoolman quickly opened the breakthrough from him again and equalized the score.

Ferguson knew that this was the Liverpool man who was interested in attacking Weiss Brown, but he had no choice. He could not replace Weiss Brown shortly after the game began.

Benitez returned to the coaching seat and sat down, and he was very satisfied with the performance of his disciples.

Especially when he saw Ferguson's annoyed look not far away, he felt even happier.

The Spanish head coach proudly thought that football is a sport that relies on strength to speak. Although it can gain a temporary advantage by relying on evil ways, in the face of absolute strength, this advantage is very fragile.
