Chapter 334 Manchester United and Liverpool are good friends(2/3)

However, this ball is very close to the baseline, almost equivalent to a corner kick.

He also got some first half data from his assistant before.

As Pan Yi said in the pre-match preparation meeting, the two full-backs Moreno and Johnson are indeed still far behind world-class defenders in terms of comprehensive ability.

In set-piece defense, the front point and the center of the small penalty area are two crucial points, but between these two points, there are also other players who need to protect the defensive players at the two points.

"Because Chelsea this season is so strong and resilient, leading by one goal is not safe at all."

Gary Neville was right there:

"Pan Yi must be feeling guilty now."

When the crisp whistle sounded, Hazard quickly ran forward and kicked the ball directly in front of him.

However, because Rogers also asked his disciples to shrink their defense, Chelsea's offense was not able to pose a big threat immediately.

After Lukaku got the ball, he immediately prepared to break into the penalty area. Liverpool defender Skrtel, who was unable to defend in time, had no choice but to bring him down. Fortunately, the referee was merciful and did not show another yellow card, otherwise he would have been sent off.

"Chelsea's side has obviously done a good job in intelligence work and has specially practiced it. The penalty shot by Hazard was in the area that Balotelli was defending, and then after two header relays, it went to

Alonso is a weak defensive area."

"Believe me, brothers, as long as you can remember your responsibilities, as long as each of you does your best to complete your tasks, then I guarantee that victory will definitely belong to us!"

"I won't go into details anymore, you should all keep it in mind."

Gary Neville and Carragher looked at each other, relatively speechless.

"Coach Pan Yi's purpose in doing this should be to use solid defense to consume Liverpool's energy first. After all, Liverpool has the support of the home court and scored first. Of course, this will also consume Liverpool's physical and energy. Wait until the second half.

work hard."

Their passing and receiving errors in the midfield and backfield increased significantly.

"In other words, Chelsea's first defeat of the Premier League season is finally coming! Hahahaha!"

The head coach Pan Yi also kept clenching his fists and waving at this side. While celebrating, he also signaled that the fans could shout more violently!

Because this goal not only equalized the score, but also meant that Chelsea had sounded the clarion call for counterattack!

Even in an away game, both the players and fans must overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum!——

After this goal, the Sky Sports studio became much quieter.

Leading in ball possession? That's false.

Seat B moved laterally from the right, received Hazard's pass at the top of the arc, and shot a volley!

The ball flew forward at extremely fast speed and once again entered the goal guarded by Mignolet.

"I think Rodgers just needs to consider how to take advantage of this advantage and score Chelsea's goal again as soon as possible."

On the court.

The ball flew up due to the force, and after drawing an arc, it fell towards the goal.

"And in the first half, the team did not play as well as Liverpool. This may also make Pan Yi have self-doubt, which will lead to some wrong judgments and adjustments."

"Pan Yi is really great and deserves his reputation! His eleven consecutive Premier League wins definitely did not come by chance..."

After Chelsea scored the equalizing goal, the mentality of Liverpool players will undergo huge changes, and this change is often negative.

So Seat B passed the ball directly to Lukaku.

Liverpool's five shots in the first half were all long-range shots from outside the penalty area;

Most of Chelsea's five shots were hit into the penalty area through coordination, including crosses from the wing and direct penetration into the ribs, with various tricks.

When Liverpool got the ball and counterattacked, Pan Yi had specially arranged for players to cut off the connection between Coutinho and other Liverpool players, forcing him to dribble the ball forward, and at the same time blocking his long-range shot.

There was no space, which made Liverpool's counterattack even more stumbling and very disadvantageous.

Especially on Hazard's side, Johnson had a very difficult time dealing with it, being broken through and cut inside by the Belgian several times.

"Pan Yi's team has always been good at attacking from behind. You must not take it lightly! Otherwise, it will be impossible to interrupt their winning streak!"

And this took them only five minutes in total.

The number of shots and shots on goal, including the more reasonable number of expected goals, can reflect the ability of both sides to create opportunities.

Sure enough, facing this sudden change, Balotelli just subconsciously looked back, but made no further defensive moves.

This also made Rogers feel crisis.

Because he knows that Balotelli is less focused when defending. If someone comes around to head the ball in front of Balotelli, Balotelli will not react much.

This is like a remnant army desperately resisting the enemy's attack. It could indeed withstand it and even have a chance to counterattack and win;

But at this time, a corner of the position was breached, the morale of the army was affected, the last psychological line of defense was breached, and the position was gone.

All of Chelsea's tall players also ran into Liverpool's penalty area, immediately making the already crowded Liverpool penalty area become full of tall players.

But the number of shots was 5 to 5, and the two sides were tied. The number of shots that hit the goal frame was 1 to 3, and Chelsea took the lead.

In the 65th minute, Chelsea launched another wave of attacks along the right.

"As one of the famous representatives of reverse driving, Brother Long lived up to expectations and kicked the ball in!"

Gerrard, Skrtel and Lovren on the home team are not short, but the two full-backs, including Coutinho and Sterling, are not so good, so Balot is close to 189cm tall.

Lee also has to come back to help defend at this time.

"Not only weak teams should pay attention to it, but strong teams will also develop and utilize it on a deeper level."

But at this time, the momentum of Rogers and all Liverpool players had been completely defeated.

This made Liverpool's position even more panicked.

1:2!

Fortunately, Liverpool's two central defenders performed relatively well, but in order to help Johnson defend, Skrtel also received a yellow card.

He was pushing against Moreno with his back, trying to forcefully turn around and pass by, when Pan Yi's cry came to his ears:

"Hanhan! Flip! Flip for me! Find the set piece! Find the set piece for me!"

Obviously, the players on Chelsea's side seemed to be very familiar with Liverpool's arrangement. They immediately took up their positions after entering the opponent's penalty area.

And Chelsea's goal has not even entered the 70th minute that represents "Pan Yi time"!

Everyone laughed.

Although Chelsea had only scored one goal and the score was still a draw, they all had a strong feeling that - Liverpool was finished!

Although it is indeed funny that Neville and Carragher worry about Liverpool's victory or defeat together, they are both professional football people after all.

So Chelsea treated it as a corner kick.

Finally, Pan Yi said:

You know, Liverpool and Manchester United, the "double club", are the biggest enemies and competitors in the history of the Premier League in recent decades.

"To be honest, I doubt Chelsea will concede another goal in the second half."

In comparison, Chelsea has more tall men, and the three-center-back system naturally has this advantage!

They stood in Liverpool's penalty area with Lukaku, Marcos Alonso, Matic and others, which was quite intimidating.

"It's not that easy to come back after being one goal behind at Anfield!"

This is to tell your teammates to choose the first routine to attack!

Just five minutes later, Chelsea's offensive resumed.

Gary Neville spoke so confidently and seemed so excited that Carragher, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but doubt his own identity.

The only question now is where Hazard, the penalty taker, will send the ball and what kind of attack it will develop into.

"In the 68th minute, Chelsea took a free kick and Marcos Alonso scored with a volley!"

Zhang Lu also said: "Liverpool's set-piece defense has always been problematic."

"Including what I ordered before the start of the first half, I will do the same in the second half. You can't forget it just because I slightly adjusted the tactics in the first half. Are you not that stupid?"

"Because Liverpool were leading the attack, it looked like they had the advantage, but in reality it was evenly matched at best."

"Also, Lovren and Skrtel in the middle, you must guard against Lukaku and not let him go to the wing..."

In other words, in the first half, apart from knocking Chelsea's goal with two consecutive long shots, Liverpool did not create as many opportunities as Chelsea later.

After all, they are already very close to the goal. As long as there is a slight change in direction, the ball may enter the net!

But David Luiz didn't seem to have any intention of directly attacking the goal.

Because before he fell, Moreno stretched out his leg to sweep Lukaku, and the referee's whistle sounded immediately.

He was not in a hurry to press forward to equalize the score. Instead, he held on first and let Liverpool, who were good at counterattacking, come out first to consume their energy and patience.

After scoring, Marcos Alonso excitedly rushed to the Chelsea fans' stands to celebrate with them.

Of course you won't lose your balance due to these "slight" collisions.

The ball hit Liverpool's goal with a weird arc, 1:3!
