Chapter 714 Locking the Victory
I don’t know if Valdez’s prayer moved God. The football did not fly into the goal, but maybe Valdez’s prayer was not sincere enough, and the football did not fly out of the baseline...
"boom!"
The football hit the post!
It also hit the hearts of everyone present.
The football is not hit inside or outside the post, so the football neither flies out of the baseline nor bounces into the goal, but flies back into the penalty area.
"Pique!!" the Spanish commentator yelled.
At this time, it seems that the long legs have taken advantage, and Pique rushed to the football.
If Pique is allowed to touch the ball first, Liverpool will probably be able to take a corner kick, maybe even not even a corner kick, only a throw.
Just as the Liverpool fans lamented the missed opportunity, their feet, which had been wearing red socks, stretched out and barely poked the football before Pique.
Piqué stretched out his foot to intercept, but it was obvious that he did not have any practical significance in doing so.
"Louis! Suarez!!!" The England commentator shouted at the top of his lungs.
Suarez, wearing No. [-], ran out of the penalty area. He didn't make the iconic wrist kiss this time. He was so excited. He ran to the KOP stands behind the goal and shouted. Countless big hands stretched out to Suarez in the stands. s.
Liverpool fans are also very excited, their blood is boiling.
England commentator: "Suarez has become Liverpool's hero!!! Now Liverpool's total score is 4:1 Barcelona! And there are only 10 minutes of regular time and 4 minutes of stoppage time in the second half! Barcelona wants to eliminate Liverpool , must score three goals in a row in the next few days! But is it possible?!"
…………
In stark contrast to the boiling Liverpool fans were the few Barcelona away fans who bowed their heads in front of the camera.
Some female fans could no longer control their emotions, and cried while hugging their partners.
Although their emotions tell them that Barcelona still has a chance to come back, intellectually they already know that Barcelona is unlikely to come back.
The broadcast shot was shown to Guardiola again. At this time, Guardiola was no longer sitting on the coach's bench, and he was standing on the sidelines with his hands on his hips.Guardiola in front of the camera looked bitter and bitter, and it was obvious that Suarez's goal hit him hard.
…………
Although Levi next to Guardiola was very excited, after hugging the coaches and players on the bench, Levi calmed down quickly. He knew that Liverpool had not yet reached the point where they could secure tickets to Wembley Stadium. when.Li Wei wants to win the game with peace of mind, so stop fighting with Barcelona.
At the end of the goal celebration, Liverpool immediately made substitution adjustments.
Griezmann goes off and Lallana comes on as a substitute.
But Lallana is not playing as a winger for Griezmann, nor is he playing as a midfielder, he is playing as a full-back.
Since Lallana played as a winger, it was unreasonable for Dirk on the other side to play as a winger, and his position was also moved back to the winger.
利物浦的阵型也从4-3-3变为4-5-1，这是一个标准的防守反击阵型。
After scoring the goal, Liverpool stopped taking risks and strengthened their defense very utilitarianly.
Guardiola also made substitution adjustments for the first time. In fact, it was not that Guardiola did not want to adjust, but that Barcelona suffered a wave of injuries.The eleven Barcelona players on the field are already the best formation Guardiola can form.
For example, Puyol, he actually played this time with an injury, and he also played closed for this reason.
The original left-back Abidal underwent liver tumor surgery. Although he made a comeback in this game, Guardiola did not trust his competitive state.
It's just that he has nothing to do now, and Puyol obviously can't run anymore.Moreover, in the position of left back, Puyol is obviously stronger in defense than offense, and has not made much contribution to the team's offense.
So Guardiola replaced Puyol with Abidal who had just undergone liver tumor surgery. He himself was not sure whether this substitution could turn decay into magic.
Immediately afterwards, Guardiola made a second substitution adjustment, and Afeilai replaced Pedro.This substitution is to strengthen the team's long-range shots.
Liverpool is obviously ready to play the iron barrel formation again, and this time the iron barrel formation is more determined.In the previous iron barrel formation, at least there were three forwards interfering in the frontcourt. This time it was a full-back, so as to strengthen the defensive numbers of the two wings.
Without enough space to sprint, Pedro's power on the court will be weakened a lot.
…………
As the game resumed, Guardiola found Liverpool's defense more difficult than he had imagined.
Other teams in the Iron Barrel team pursued keeping the football away from the area 30 meters away from their own goal. After Liverpool broke the football, they did not kick the ball, but poured the ball from the backcourt.
Guardiola knows that Liverpool's pouring skills are very good, but in the last game at the Nou Camp, Liverpool's possession rate was extremely low, and he had no chance to see it.Now he knows that Liverpool's backcourt pass control is no worse than Barcelona's!
When the two wingers became full-backs, Liverpool's passing points increased, and it was not easy for Barcelona to steal the ball from them.
This is not the most annoying thing for Barcelona players. When Barcelona players invest more manpower in the frontcourt to press, Liverpool will suddenly have a big foot and send the football to Barcelona's half, looking for a single striker Suarez!
Although so far, Liverpool's long pass counterattack has not succeeded once.
Either the football was picked up by the Barcelona defender, or it was deflected by Valdez, or Suarez missed the football under the attack of Mascherano and Pique.
But this does not make the Barcelona players feel at ease.
Because no one can guarantee that Barcelona can resolve Liverpool's next counterattack, and once Suarez scores another goal, Barcelona is really hopeless.
The mental imbalance makes Barcelona's offense easier.
Even Messi couldn't calm down and cooperate more with his teammates.
It also makes Liverpool's defense easier.
The time came to No. 90 minutes unknowingly, and Barcelona still had no way to break through Liverpool's gate.
The fourth official raised the electronic card to indicate 4 minutes of extra time.
There were boos at Anfield, and fans thought stoppage time was too long.
Li Wei also thinks that stoppage time is a bit long, because there were no conflicts or injuries in the second half, and there was only one goal celebration.
But he didn't protest anything, he was the winner now, so why not be more magnanimous?
What's more, do you think there is no way for me to waste time with 4 minutes of stoppage time?
No. 901 minutes, Moussa Sissoko broke the football out of the touchline.
The fourth official on the sidelines raised an electronic card to signal a substitution.
NO.15 Sturridge replaced No. [-] Suarez.
Suarest thief, he knows very well what he should do at this point in time.
He glanced at the electronic card, turned his head decisively to look at the Barcelona goal, and stood there with his hands on his hips panting.
The referee Frank de Brickley's face darkened slightly, and he ran over to signal Suarez to leave.
Suarez turned his head to look at the electronic card, and trotted to the sidelines with a look of sudden realization.It looks like a trot, but this guy is extremely slow.
The referee Frank de Brickley ran up and showed Suarez a yellow card.
Frank de Brickley thinks Suarez is playing for time.
Suarez spread his hands innocently.
The referee didn't bother with Suarez, and pushed Suarez to the sidelines.
The Liverpool fans at the scene were all happy, and they stood up and applauded Suarez.Not only to thank Suarez for the kick that sealed the victory just now, but also to be happy for Suarez's performance when he left the field.
Li Wei took the initiative to meet Suarez and hugged him, and said with a smile: "Good job! I'll add a chicken leg to your lunch tomorrow!"
"Could it not be boiled?" Suarez took the opportunity to raise conditions.
Although Liverpool's nutritious meal is indeed very nutritious, but because of too much pursuit of nutrition, the taste is really bad.For example, chicken is usually boiled, which is not counted, and there is no salt in it.
Levi happily agreed to Suarez's small request. "Here's a grilled chicken leg! Just one!"
Suarez was overjoyed, grinning widely.
