841 Sink the opponent!
After Mbappe appeared, Liverpool's right-hand attack showed a new threat!
Compared with Gareth Bale's impact, Mbappe has more advantages in terms of skill!
This does not mean that Mbappe is not good at speed. On the contrary, Mbappe has been hailed as the most promising player in the new generation to reach the European Golden Ball Awards!
He is no less than Gareth Bale in terms of speed, but better in terms of skills!
In the 38th minute of the game, Mbappe changed direction in front of Alba and knocked the ball from behind and cut across the front of the penalty area. When Rakitic and Alba rushed towards him, he calmly passed the ball diagonally outside the penalty area to the right.
He led Alba to retreat to the middle, creating a good assist space for Azpilicueta. Azpilicueta dribbled in and cut into the penalty area. When Alba returned to defense, Azpilicueta suddenly passed the ball to the back point of the penalty area.
Gareth Bale quickly rushed to the ball, headed the ball and jumped!
The football flew straight to the near corner of the goal. At the critical moment, Bravo made a world-class save and saved the ball from the bottom line with one hand!
Gareth Bell gritted his teeth secretly, showing an unwilling look on his face.
And Barcelona fans were already desperate in the stands!
Their defense line is always in a precarious state, which is not a good phenomenon.
"Bravo made a contribution! His wonderful save resolved Gareth Bale's header!
Mbappe showed an excellent state after taking the field. Liverpool made Barcelona's defense line panic under a strong attack!
People have been looking forward to Barcelona's counterattack, but what they are waiting for is Liverpool's fierce and fierce offensive!
How long will Barcelona last? Can they ensure that the defense line will not concede the ball before the end of the first half?"
Liverpool took a tactical corner kick, but this time Robertson's cross was cleared by Pique at the front point.
Suarez, who retreated to the front of the penalty area, directly hooked the ball and kicked it to the left side of the midfield.
When the football bounced back and flew to the side, Henderson rushed to intercept Neymar!
He knew that Neymar must not be allowed to dribble into the key area of Liverpool's defense at this moment, as that would be too dangerous!
So when Neymar stopped the ball, he pressed himself on the ball. Because Neymar needed to control the ball, Henderson was already fouled!
But what he didn't expect was that Neymar picked up the ball when he touched the ball!
The result was that Henderson did not encounter football and directly threw Neymar to the ground!
Neymar fell to the ground and pushed Henderson away, then curled up in a ball of pain and moaned, as if he had really suffered a huge injury.
The referee blew a foul by Henderson and then showed him a yellow card!
Henderson tried hard to explain to the referee that he did not intend to foul, but he was too aggressive and could not stop his strength as soon as possible!
Even so, the referee did not change his mind.
Henderson looked at Situ Yunbing in pain, but Situ Yunbing gave him a thumbs up.
Then, Situ Yunbing turned around and gestured to Gerald.
Henderson removed all his psychological burden and continued to face the game seriously.
All the spectators in the stands were shocked to see another player from Liverpool who stood up to warm up on the sidelines.
Casemiro!
Everyone had a premonition in their hearts, but they didn't dare to confirm it.
But one minute later, when Barcelona's frontcourt offense was cleared by Kante from the sideline, the premonition became a reality!
"Omg! Crazy! Situ Yunbing is crazy! Liverpool has to take the initiative to use two substitutions before they finished the first half of the game!
Casemiro came on the field to replace Henderson!
Why?
Is it because Henderson has a yellow card?
Situ Yunbing is simply too extreme!
Have you ever thought about the player's feelings when doing this?"
If we consider it from the perspective of human nature, Situ Yunbing will indeed ignore the players' feelings.
However, from the team perspective, if the feelings of one or two players can only choose one of two compared to the team's victory, then Situ Yunbing will choose the latter without hesitation!
Because he wants to bring victory to the team!
This is his first responsibility as head coach!
With Enrique's dumbfounded shocking expression, Liverpool completed the second substitution.
When Henderson came to an end, he also took the initiative to hug Situ Yunbing!
In fact, everyone knows that although this is only the quarter-final of the Champions League, such a game has attracted worldwide attention. Liverpool needs to show the strongest strength to face Barcelona. Situ Yunbing can make Henderson and Sane start, which is acknowledging their abilities and also giving them the opportunity to perform.
Situ Yunbing was very satisfied with Henderson's performance. Although he had not burned out his energy, he had already made great contributions!
The midfielder is the top priority for Liverpool to suppress Barcelona, and Henderson completed the tasks assigned by Situ Yunbing with simplicity, hard work, diligence and pragmatism.
Situ Yunbing hugged Henderson and said to him: "I hope you can understand that I hope you can play the whole game in my heart. You are the toughest fighter in Liverpool!"
Henderson nodded slightly and walked to the bench without saying a word. After sitting down, he watched the game seriously, looking forward to the team's victory as scheduled!
Henderson never dared to forget what Situ Yunbing said to him four years ago.
If he wants to have a place in Liverpool, he must work harder and give more!
Much more than others!
Because he is not as amazing as Mbappe, Sane is not as unique as Kante.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is a product on a specific assembly line during the English youth training period, and has similar characteristics to many players during the same period. If he wants to make changes, become unique, and achieve something, he must rely on his own connotation.
The qualitative change of connotation is the most difficult, such as Yugong moving mountains, he needs to persevere!
Situ Yunbing was very happy that he did it, and even Fleet Street praised Henderson for being "a late bloomer" this season!
Because Liverpool has been hiding the main players in the group stages of the Champions League, and even in the 1/8 finals, Henderson played all these games, his performance has won him praise and he has indeed made great contributions to the team.
Few people care that Henderson is only 26 years old in 2 months!
It is the peak of the golden period!
The outside world saw that Situ Yunbing's workload was decreasing every year.
The first year at Liverpool was the most difficult. With all the ruins and ruins, he has set up a brand new lineup again.
The second year was to be enterprising, introducing Van Dijk, Kante and Azpilicueta to complete a new strengthening of the team's lineup from the central axis to the local area!
In the third year, it seemed that only Mbappe's emergence, Sane's later rise, and Lewandowski's seamless connection.
In the fourth year, Situ Yunbing had even less work, and there were almost no surprise changes.
But in fact, in the past two years, Situ Yunbing has been strengthening the team's thickness. Sane, Mbappe, Valdi, Robertson's maturity, Coutinho and Erikson's improvement, Henderson gradually took the lead, plus Guerrero's supplement.
He will not easily move the team's central axis, which is a taboo!
Cultivating rookies every year and then replacing them with the main force is not to promote one's own ability to constantly innovate, but to play with fire!
A mature and successful lineup, the core framework is the most basic for 5 years, while the top lineup and even the core framework can last for nearly 10 years!
Against the backdrop of great success, Liverpool strengthens the lineup thickness and stimulates internal competition can only be Situ Yunbing's only choice.
Deposing any main force may cause internal conflicts and turmoil. Even if selling people out of sight, selling them to any competitor will only add to your own worries!
But internal competition is different, this is the natural law of natural choice!
He needs a genius who shocks the eye, but also needs the diligent and simple blue-collar giant, Henderson, a character who is the best supplement to Liverpool has now become an indispensable champion puzzle in his hands!
After Henderson was out, Liverpool still maintained a fast offense and defense against the high-level counterattack on the court.
Casemiro's defensive strength is higher than Henderson, which makes Barcelona's offense more difficult. If you should be careful about Liverpool's speed before, you should be wary of Liverpool's hard skills now.
In the 43rd minute of the game, when Messi tried to cooperate with Suarez on the right side of the frontcourt, Casemiro took the lead and let Suarez get out of the ball and the line was blocked. After Suarez took the risk of pulling the ball and turning around, a miracle did not happen.
He did not break through Liverpool's defense with a cleverness, and Coolibali made a key interception, not deceived by Suarez's pass fake move.
When Couliebali cut the ball, Liverpool quickly launched an attack from the backcourt.
Coutinho's central circle area supported the ball across the left, and Gareth Bale quickly advanced the offensive after leading the ball!
Due to the threat of Coutinho's forward in the middle, Busquets did not dare to easily assist in the sidewalk.
Gareth Bale quickly turned inward after dribbling into the offensive dangerous area. At this time, Lewandowski took the initiative to come to meet, but Gareth Bale passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area under the cover of his teammates to the right.
After stopping the ball in the active reception, Mbappe suddenly pulled the ball and turned around to get rid of Rakitic's interception. He then spiked the ball and dodged Alba's lower foot press, and then shot!
The ball is fast, but the angle is poor.
Bravo moved one step in front of the goal and blocked the ball from the front!
The blocked football happened to be controlled by Coutinho outside the penalty area. After Coutinho took the ball, he passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area to the right.
Rakitic immediately came up to grab it, but Casemiro, who followed up, shot out with a blast!
The football flew straight like a cannonball and was on the upper left side of the middle. Bravo had already struggled to save continuously, but he still barely blocked the ball!
But unfortunately the football bounced in front of the goal!
Gareth Bale made a quick follow-up shot and the football flew straight to the near corner of the goal!
Bravo, who was lying on the ground, had no time to save for the third time in a row, so he could only watch the football fly into the goal!
Anfield Stadium was restless, and Reds fans roared wildly!
Chapter completed!
