1343 The Red Army escaped a catastrophe!

In the first half of the first leg of the Champions League semi-final between Liverpool and Manchester United, Gerrard could not see the passing line and finally had to take a long shot to end the attack. The football that flew into the stands made the Red Army fans feel a little worried .

The morale of the Red Devils was greatly boosted after hearing the referee blow the whistle at the end of the first half!

They successfully resisted Liverpool for 45 minutes. In Liverpool's smooth season, such a situation will encourage the Red Devils. On the contrary, Liverpool may fall into anxiety and panic.

Players from both teams returned to the locker room.

Koeman saw the players whispering and discussing the content of the first half of the game.

Coman was actually a little confused.

Because in 45 minutes, Liverpool's frontal attack failed to achieve good results, which in itself was very demoralizing.

It's not that the players performed poorly, but that the technical and tactical confrontation in this game is indeed tit-for-tat.

After a short thought, Koeman made a decision.

When it is interrupted, it will suffer from chaos!

Instead of playing the second half with unknown exploration, it is better to be firm and concentrate on attacking in one way, which can at least make the team unify their thinking.

This is also to prevent Liverpool from really falling into a situation of being overwhelmed or confused in the second half.

Because Liverpool will be too much!

The offensive methods he is good at are very rich. If someone wants to pass from the side, someone wants to penetrate the center, someone wants to make a surprise attack, and someone wants to rely on set kicks...

It is precisely because Liverpool is good at too much, and when the offense is blocked, everyone wants to win by surprise, so there may be different ideas, and the whole team cannot be unified.

Although this is different from the differences in team thinking that most teams will commit, the mistakes most teams make in the game are basically that the players' offensive and defensive thinking are not unified.

Some want to attack and some want to defend.As a result, the formation is disordered and collapsed.

The problems that Liverpool may have now are much higher than this situation, but at the same time, if they are not avoided, the consequences will be unimaginable.

And the blow will be even heavier!

Koeman clapped his hands, and the applause made everyone turn their attention to him.

Koeman said in a deep voice to everyone: "We have seen what kind of ideas Manchester United came to our site. In the second half, we must first focus on containing Manchester United's counterattack. Secondly, when attacking, we must unify our thinking. Now you listen I said that the second half was dominated by long-range threats.

Qin Xiong, you have to play a containment role on the periphery of the penalty area.To create space for the center to insert, Park Ji-sung and Rooney are very active in defending the side. They are the main objects that need to be distracted.

Gerrard, you try to contain Carrick up front and scare Evra as much as possible.

Meireles and Alonso, you will be the main attackers from long range!

My request to you is simple, shoot the ball into the goal area, whether it is blocked by an opposing defender or saved by Van der Sar.It doesn't matter!

Raul, you must be more active in the penalty area. Once the long-range shots of your teammates in the back row cause chaos in the penalty area, you must be able to seize the opportunity to fish in troubled waters!

Baines.Johnson, you need to pass the ball to Qin Xiong and Gerrard more, and create opportunities for them to restrain their opponents!

Boys, today is a difficult game. Manchester United is more prepared than we thought. They came prepared, and we will beat them with the strength of the team!Prepare your mind now.Get out there and fight! "

The generals of the Red Army stood up and shouted in unison: "Okay, BOSS!"

This should be the first time that Koeman gave orders like combat instructions in front of the Liverpool generals.

Although there are big names in the team, no player thinks there is anything wrong with Koeman doing this.Even everyone responded to Koman's order immediately.

After walking out of the player tunnel, the generals of the Red Army walked into the stadium with a dignified attitude.

The Red Devils are at halftime.They must have listened to Ferguson's teachings, and they were still cautious, facing the second half of the game cautiously.

At the beginning of the second half, Liverpool was like a precision instrument, and all members of the team performed their duties.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Manchester United launched a counterattack from the side, and used the attack from the right as a cover. After Valencia dribbled the football to push the offensive past halftime, he immediately passed the ball to Carrick in the center. The ball quickly shifted to the front left.

Liverpool's defense in the middle of the midfield had just slanted to Valencia's side. Unexpectedly, Manchester United immediately adjusted their defense after playing east and west.

Giggs watched the attacking runs through the middle of the pitch as he progressed swiftly, this time with both Rooney and Hernandez following up the front line.

When he dribbled the football and came in front of Johnson, he made a pass and Johnson immediately raised his foot to block it. Unexpectedly, Giggs, the evergreen player in the Premier League, dunked the ball. He dunked Johnson and then headed towards the penalty area Cut inside!

"Johnson was broken by Giggs! The Liverpool penalty area is dangerous!"

Ferguson got up slightly from the coaching bench again. The Red Devils and Manchester United's game can be said to be reckless. They are trying to survive under the pressure of Liverpool. They want to fight a bright road in the dark!

The counterattack was very beautiful, and it also allowed Giggs to break through a player of the opponent. In other words, in terms of the number of offensive and defensive numbers, Manchester United narrowed the gap.

Now let's look at the final link of organizing the offense in the penalty area!

After Giggs entered the penalty area, Alonso and Skrtel immediately formed a zone defense, blocking his passing line and shooting angle.

At the critical moment, Rooney slanted behind Skrtel, Giggs kicked the ball obliquely towards the baseline, the football rolled to Rooney's feet, Skrtel immediately raised his hand to signal Rooney offside, and quickly looked back , The linesman did not raise the flag!

Rooney holds the ball near the baseline, he has no shooting angle, or he doesn't even fantasize about scoring from almost zero angles.

At this time, he can only find one person: Little Pea Hernandez!

He saw Xiaopea's running position and slanted behind Agger!

That will definitely not be offside, because Skrtel's return to the bottom line of the penalty area is the last one.

Rooney made a decisive decision and picked the ball to the back of the goal!

When the football flew past Skrtel, Reina, and Agger's head and fell to the point behind the goal, Hernandez could send the ball into the empty goal in front of him with a diagonal header.

The hearts of all the Red Army fans were raised in their throats, and the Red Devils fans watched Hernandez with great anticipation.

Just as Hernandez was about to head the ball, he felt someone close to his right side.

Baines!

Baynes was caught out against Hernandez for position from the sidelines and he nearly knocked Pea Hernandez off balance as Hernandez kept his eyes on the ball and Baynes struck The direction was out of his field of vision, so he was unprepared.

The football hit the top of Hernandez's head and bounced towards the sideline!

Liverpool survived! (to be continued~^~)
