591 A Wrongful Defeat
The score of Dortmund's game turned into a 1:1 draw. Now in the real-time standings, although Napoli lags behind Liverpool, they have returned to the second place.
Napoli is now leading Dortmund by 1 point.
This situation made many Naples fans feel depressed.
If Naples can keep the draw, the situation is more ideal now.
Because even if Dortmund leads, they only need to win the game before the end of the game to advance, but now they are behind Liverpool. Once Dortmund leads Marseille again, Napoli will have to complete a reversal before they can advance to the Champions League round of 16!
Naples was under a lot of psychological pressure on the field, and at the same time they were distracted by another game. Situ Yunbing focused on commanding the team to fight.
Naples' offensive investment after conceding the ball has somewhat restrained, probably because he is afraid of Liverpool's counterattack, but in this way, it is difficult for them to shake Liverpool's defense line, and the equalization seems to be far away.
The game was a little tepid, and Liverpool paid more runs to strengthen the defensive sweep, which made it difficult for Napoli to find a breakthrough from Liverpool's defense line.
Pandev's performance today was very average, and he failed in several attempts to challenge Azpilicueta. Although Callehon on the right had a certain advantage over Robertson, he was obviously not as obvious as his advantage against Liverpool in the first leg.
This phenomenon shows that Robertson has grown a lot in two months. You should know that this is at St. Paul's Stadium, not at Anfield Stadium!
After experiencing so many battles during this period, Robertson's rapid growth did not surprise Situ Yunbing. At the same time, he is also one of the target players that Situ Yunbing would use whenever there were suitable cards before every game.
When the first half came to the 40th minute, Naples' offensive dropped significantly and they slowed down.
Situ Yunbing looked a little strange. He looked at Benitez, not sure what Benitez's tactics mean today.
Do you really want to pin your hopes on Marseille?
Or did Napoli lose his courage after being hit in the first half of the attack?
Situ Yunbing couldn't understand it. Perhaps Benitez's thinking logic was indeed difficult for him to understand in terms of the differences in coaching styles.
He doesn't care about that much.
Play gestures on the sidelines and Liverpool attacks!
After the Red Army generals on the field were ordered, they quickly accelerated the pace, and after the crazy press in the midfield, they quickly launched a threatening offensive.
In the 45th minute of the game, Henderson completed a steal against Pandeff and immediately passed the ball straight ahead.
Valdi's lieutenant ball knocked back to the side, Azpilicueta ran up and dribbled the ball into the frontcourt. When he was caught in Napoli's defensive siege, he passed the ball diagonally in the middle, Coutinho followed up and sent a straight pass through the Napoli defense!
Sterling made a counter-offside attack and hit the ball across the middle in the right rib of the penalty area. Vardy shot first before Fernandez pressed and sent the ball into the lower left corner of the goal!
Liverpool wins another goal!
“This must be a big joke!
Liverpool actually led Naples 2:0 at the Sao Paulo Stadium!
Benitez's team feels very stressful, and they seem to want to wait for Liverpool to hand over the victory!
We can hardly see their determination and will to win the game!
What exactly are they doing?
Are you really waiting for Marseille to snipe Dortmund?
Think about it, think calmly, if Dortmund heard the news that Liverpool had two goals ahead of Naples during the break, what would the German Hornets react?
They need to create two conditions for miracles. Liverpool has helped them create one, so they will definitely work hard to achieve the second one!
Naples only needed one victory, but they did not take it.
Benitez needs adjustments, Naples needs his magic in Istanbul.”
At the end of the half, Naples fans in the stands of the Sao Paulo Stadium were worried.
Situ Yunbing sat among the players after returning to the locker room. After the players were resting for a while, he said to everyone: "Do you know why Naples is not a giant?"
Everyone's eyes were all turned to him, waiting for the following text.
Situ Yunbing said in a deep voice: "They always cannot show convincing combat effectiveness and fighting spirit in key battles.
You can say that Naples are strong and good, but they are not top-notch!
The reason is here. The wealthy family cannot be seen by the lineup. The wealthy family can show a firmer will, better performance, more calm mentality, and more convincing results than their opponents at critical moments!
One time is not enough, two times are not enough. You must go through such tests countless times. Only by passing similar challenges can you prove that you are a wealthy family!
Although we do not have the strongest lineup to the outside world today, we are still a wealthy family!
Why?"
Erikson said with a firm look: "Because we have a stronger will and better performance than them, and we also have a more calm mind, and there will definitely be a result that makes them suffer!"
Situ Yunbing nodded with a smile, and the other players nodded slightly, with unwavering expressions.
Situ Yunbing has gained a lot of believers on the road of coaching, and these players are full of unshakable beliefs about Situ Yunbing.
Gareth Bale, Benatia, Azpilicueta, Van Dijk, Kanter, etc. are now in Liverpool, and Eriksen is also a new believer.
At the same time, because they are the kind of players who are dedicated to football, Situ Yunbing will put more energy into them.
No one can truly treat everyone equally. As the head coach in the competitive sports industry, the situation that the situation most feared is to play the piano against the cow, not to be afraid of the players making mistakes, but to be afraid that the players will not correct their repeated teachings.
After encouraging the morale of the team, Situ Yunbing walked out of the locker room.
In the second half, the two teams changed sides and fought again. Liverpool still insisted on playing defensive counterattacks. They already had two goals to lead. It was very difficult for Napoli to turn the tables!
Especially some of their players are not performing very well today, and Pandev and Mertens are the ones who are obviously not performing well.
Napoli seemed to have changed his mind and repeatedly attacked Liverpool's defense in the second half, which really made Liverpool's penalty area panic, but it was still difficult to break through Ter Stegen's ten fingers.
Liverpool's generals used more active running to defend the team, which greatly restricted Naples' attempt to create a threatening attack.
Situ Yunbing was very satisfied with the team's performance, especially on the back line, Scotter was just right, but Kulibali was relatively active today.
It was not until 70 minutes after the game that Liverpool gradually showed a disadvantage on the court.
The away game has allowed Liverpool players to consume more physical energy, and Benitez also uses substitutions to enhance the team's impact in offense.
In the 79th minute of the game, Napoli's continuous offense made Liverpool's defense line scattered and there was no time to adjust.
Macho assisted from the right and broke through the wing defense line and made a cross from the bottom. Higuain flew in the middle and sent the ball into the goal with a cushion.
The long-lost cheers rang out at the Sao Paulo Stadium, and Naples finally scored a goal!
Benitez couldn't feel relaxed.
There was no news of a goal in another game, and all the Napoli were naturally hoping that Marseille could score a goal and lead Dortmund to kill the suspense!
Liverpool continued to fight tenaciously without distraction.
Napoli wanted to make a comeback, but the offense continued. In the 83rd minute of the game, Liverpool had an excellent counterattack opportunity, but Sterling was hit by the attacking goalkeeper Raphael, who was attacking, broke the ball.
It is obvious that physical fitness factors have affected his performance.
Three minutes later, Hamsik's powerful shot in front of the penalty area was saved by Ter Stegen!
All Naples fans hugged their heads and sighed.
And then, bad news came!
"Bortmond leads Marseille away! Groschloitz's goal helped Dortmund lead Marseille again!
omg! Dortmund has created a miracle. Now that Napoli wants to kill his opponent's miracle, he must score two more goals!
Otherwise they will switch to the UEFA Cup after this game ends!”
All Naples were stunned by the news.
Will Marseille shamefully end the Champions League journey this season with a six-game losing streak in the group stage?
Naples fans have set off an extremely magnificent cheering momentum, trying to help the players on the field.
The Naples players didn't care about so much and began to bombard Liverpool's defense line.
The game suddenly became a little messy, but in terms of momentum, Naples did suppress Liverpool.
But Naples' offensive success rate is not high, and it is a bit of a lucky element.
When the game entered injury stoppage time, Liverpool had retreated.
The bombing in Naples has also entered its craziest stage.
In the second minute of injury time, Suniga made a 45-degree cross from the side, Kulibali headed the ball in the penalty area, Behrami pushed the ball into the penalty area, and Albior headed the ball in the right rib of the penalty area!
The football flew directly into the upper right corner of the goal!
Just as Albiol rushed into the goal and held the ball in his arms to go to the center circle to kick off the ball, the referee blew a whistle to indicate that the goal was invalid.
He was offside!
"Naples' goal was blown away, and Albiol did have offside!
This can declare Napoli's defeat in this game and they failed to win Liverpool. If Marseille cannot draw Dortmund in another game, then Napoli will be eliminated!”
The protests of Naples were fruitless and Liverpool spent the last time.
When the referee blew the whistle of the game, Situ Yunbing turned around and walked towards Benitez, shook hands with the other party without saying a word and walked into the player's passage.
Chapter completed!
