Chapter 164
Mu Jianfeng looked at the ball in the goal very surprised, because he couldn't even remember what he did in the previous few seconds, it was completely instinct of the body!
But he was the one who scored the ball!!!
Originally, he tried several shots to no avail, but in such a chance that was not a chance, he scored a goal!
This made Mu Jianfeng completely unprepared, and he didn't even make any gestures to celebrate, until his teammates surrounded him in the middle!
"beautiful!"
"how did you do it?!"
"God, do Chinese people know how to do acrobatics?"
Mu Jianfeng was "questioned" inconceivably by his teammates. At this moment, he also realized that he had scored a goal!
After reacting, Mu Jianfeng slid out among his teammates like a fish!
He ran directly to the sidelines and made a heartfelt gesture towards the camera, because he wanted to give the ball to his family in front of the TV, as well as Josephine.
This goal completely made Benitez lose his elegance on the sidelines. He rushed to the sidelines and shouted at Skrtel in the field:
"You fucking can't play football! How could you make a mistake in that situation!!"
This made Skrtel on the field feel his face turn blue and purple. After being scolded by his head coach, he was very guilty, but he felt a little angry in his heart.
But Carragher stepped forward to pat him on the shoulder in time, and whispered:
"Don't take it to heart, the coach is just too anxious. Anyone can make this mistake, just focus on it later!"
"Ok!"
Skrtel hummed in a low voice when he heard the words, then silently looked down at the turf with his hips on his hips, and kicked a piece hard.
……
The two-to-zero score seemed to dampen the confidence of the Liverpool players, and they did not launch any threatening attacks in the next limited time.
And Fiorentina, who led by two goals, also began to consciously stop kicking.
So the first half was over very quickly.
During the halftime break, Prandelli always had a smile on his face. They have already won more than half of the game with a two-goal lead.
As long as your team doesn't suddenly fall off a cliff in the second half, then it can be said that there is really no problem!
On the other hand, the atmosphere in Liverpool's locker room was not very good, and Benitez returned to the locker room with a livid face.
First of all, he severely criticized the team's defense, and he wished to personally teach these players how to defend and how to execute tactics.
This makes all the players in the back line feel disheartened.
Immediately afterwards, Benitez unexpectedly criticized team captain Gerrard!
"Steve, you wasted too many offensive opportunities in the first half!
You know, you completed four long-range shots in the first half alone!
And it's a long shot without any threat at all!
During the same period, Torres only got one chance to shoot!
As an attacking midfielder, you must create opportunities for the forwards instead of wasting everyone's efforts!
Understand!
In the second half, you need to support Torres more..."
Gerrard, who was criticized by the head coach by name, did not look very good, although he is already familiar with the way the head coach works.
But before he was just an ordinary young player, so Benitez used a paternalistic method to teach him how to play and how to execute tactics. He has no problem.
But now that he is the captain of the team and a world-class star, he is still treated like this by the head coach, which makes him a little unacceptable in his heart.
After all, he needs to maintain majesty in front of his teammates, so as to ensure that his teammates obey his authority and better lead the locker room.
Now this is really something he can't accept.
Just when he was about to express his thoughts, Carragher pulled Gerrard covertly again.
Gerrard looked suspiciously at this older "Liverpool" man, who shook his head at him.
Seeing this, Gerrard sighed, then lowered his head and straightened his sneakers without saying a word.
Benitez did not notice Gerrard's small movements, he has already pulled Torres to explain the tactics at the moment.
In fact, Benitez didn't intend to make Gerrard lose face, he was simply explaining his tactics, hoping that the players would understand his understanding of the game.
It's just that he really didn't think much about the world.
In this regard, Carragher shook his head helplessly and sighed. He had already discovered the hidden problems within the players, especially after winning the Champions League, the minds of many core players of the team have more or less changed.
The last Xavi Alonso who didn't get along with Benitez has left the team, but Gerrard...
"never mind!"
Carragher shook his head silently and whispered.
"Hopefully victory can hide these..."
……
After a short intermission, the two sides quickly started the second half of the game.
But soon, the Fiorentina players discovered that the Liverpool players still seemed to have no fighting spirit, and even their performance in the first half was not as good.
At first they were a little confused, whether it was their tactical arrangement.
Therefore, the Fiorentina players are very cautious in attacking and organizing carefully.
But as time went by, they found that Liverpool still had no signs of attacking, as if they were leading.
Therefore, the Fiorentina players instinctively chose a more conservative style of play, letting the ball fall under Liverpool's feet and playing a defensive counterattack.
For a while, Liverpool seemed to be the more active and strong side, but in fact they had nothing to do with Florence!
Benitez, who was standing on the sidelines, frowned and was very painful, because he found that the players did not fully implement his tactics!
There are different disconnects in several aspects of the team, especially the core offensive players, who often make mistakes in the selection of running positions and opportunities.
It seems that his tactical arrangement has been implemented on the surface, but in fact it is completely retreating!
In the end, at the No. 70 minute of the game, Benitez couldn't bear it anymore and took the lead in making tactical adjustments.
At this time, Liverpool, which seemed to reverse the disadvantage of the scene but could not open the situation, could only make a breakthrough through substitutions.
However, due to the lack of support from the team's investors, Liverpool at this time completely lost the arrogance of the Champions League champions, and swept to two or three kittens on the bench. Benitez finally made his choice.
He replaced Insua with Babel and asked Aurelio to withdraw to the full-back position.
Seeing Liverpool's "dying struggle", Prandelli also began to dispatch troops.
He chose to replace Vargas, who was physically weak, with Jorgensen.
Subsequently, Benitez replaced Dirk with Voronin.
But the form of the game has not changed much for Liverpool, and the form of the game still does not change in the seemingly dominant situation of Liverpool.
In the 80th minute of the game, Prand, who was completely relieved, used Donadyer to replace Mu Jianfeng, pushed Jovetic to the front line, and played a more thorough defensive counterattack.
Seeing this, Benitez hugged his head in pain, and then he had completely dealt out all the cards in his hand, and he could only helplessly watch the time go by little by little.
