FA Cup final, Wembley Stadium.
Dalglish sat on the coach's bench like pins and needles, with his chin resting on his hands and staring at the court with his brows.
was counted!
The assistant coach Steve Clarke could not sit still for a long time. He stood on the sidelines and watched. From time to time, he shouted a few words toward the court to remind the players to pay attention.
This is a very experienced assistant coach, and even has the ability to be alone.
At the beginning, Liverpool had spotted Dalglish, who had not coached for many years, and was a little out of touch with modern football, so the former Mourinho assistant was invited to Liverpool to assist Dalglish.
Therefore, the assistant coach's prestige in the team is not small.
But even so, it still cannot change Liverpool's disadvantage on the pitch.
Southampton launched a fierce attack on Liverpool almost from the beginning of the game, repeatedly attacking the Red Army's midfield and defense.
In this game, Liverpool also committed a big problem in the formation.
The goalkeeper is Reina, and the defenses are Jose Enrique, Scott, Agger and Glen Johnson.
The midfield is a three-midfield combination of Gerrard, Spearing and Henderson, and the frontcourt is Downing, Suarez and Bellamy.
The reason why Dalglish and Clark have such a lineup is more to control the initiative in the game.
What they didn't expect was that Southampton would be pressured from the beginning.
Goalkeeper Neuer, defense line is David Alaba, Harvey Martinez, Gary Cahill and Carvajal, midfielder is Stromman, Matic and Vidal, with a trident in the front field. It was Neymar, Drogba and Sturridge.
Tony? Cross didn't even go!
This completely disrupted Dalglish's pre-match arrangement!
In the two targeted training sessions yesterday, Liverpool revolved around how to encircle Tony Cross and suppress the Southampton midfielder.
Yesterday evening, at a press conference in Southampton, Bielsa announced that Tony Cross was out due to injury.
This disrupted Liverpool's deployment.
Today, in the last pre-match training session, Liverpool was unable to conduct tactical drills out of confidentiality.
What Dalglish and Clark can do is to remind the players to be careful as possible.
What do you say?
The game is the result of training. If the training is not done well, it is difficult to play well in the game.
With the strength of Southampton, even if Liverpool are the tactical opponents, they may not be able to win the opponent.
Not to mention that the tactics are completely wrong now!
The simplest point is that Southampton kept hitting Spearing while Vidal and Stroman boldly pressed on.
Liverpool has nothing but to return Gerrard and Henderson.
This leads to passiveness across the board.
Steve Clark, who was standing in the coaching area, looked at the time, then looked at the situation, and sighed helplessly.
"Kenny, we have to make adjustments!"
Dalglish still looked straight ahead, and asked indifferently, "Substitute?"
Clark suddenly became speechless.
It's only ten minutes to change people?
In a professional league, except for major injuries, otherwise, the head coach will not change in the first half.
Even the midfield substitutions are relatively small.
, this is to admit that the team's starting tactics failed, which undermines the morale of the team and the morale of the players.
Come on second, the player who was replaced must be upset, because he would feel that this is the head coach pulling himself as a substitute.
If you really want to make a substitution now, the players must be popular, and the fans in the stands must not do it.
"But the current situation is terrible!" Clark said worriedly.
"Southampton’s midfield was heavily pressed and Spearing was used to play the midfielder, but the effect did not come out. Instead, the weakness was exposed. Gerrard and Henderson retreated across the board. The three players in the frontcourt did not invest much in defense. Our defensive pressure is too great!"
How could Dalglish not know?
However, Liverpool does not have a trusted defensive midfielder at all!
Since Mascherano switched to Barcelona, Meireles switched to Chelsea. Although Liverpool trained a Lucas, the Brazilian has suffered frequent back injuries and missed this game because of injuries.
He is also a clever woman who can hardly cook without rice!
Under the alternating impact of Vidal and Stromman, Spearing made frequent mistakes after the opening and became very nervous.
Henderson is basically a role playing soy sauce, without decent passing and performance.
The only one who is quite satisfactory is Gerrard.
The captain of the Red Army is hardworking, and he has good skills and consciousness, but the point is that he is old and no longer brave!
"Gamble, maybe there is a chance to fight back!" Dalglish could only say so.
Don't say anything. Within two or three minutes, Southampton's offensive seemed to relax a bit. Liverpool seized an opportunity and fought back.
Henderson, who had no performance throughout the first half, gave a long diagonal pass.
Bellamy quickly followed the right, chasing the ball and rushing up.
This move immediately made the Red Army fans in the stands of Wembley Stadium burst into enthusiasm.
For a time, the entire Wembley Stadium was full of Red Army fans.
Bellamy finally caught up with the ball on the right side of the Southampton penalty area.
stopped, raised his head, but saw a flash of figure in front of him.
David? Alaba is back!
This kid is really fast!
Bellamy has forgotten, in fact, he will soon be thirty-three years old.
I saw the Welshman dribbling the ball skillfully, and suddenly he made a false move and wanted to throw off David Alaba.
Suarez and Tang Ning on the middle road have already come up, and Gerrard and Henderson also rushed into the 30-meter area.
As long as you get rid of David Alaba, there will be a lot of opportunities, maybe you can create a threat!
But at the moment Bellamy shook off David Alaba, Harvey Martinez, who had always assisted in defending behind David Alaba, suddenly stepped forward and stabbed Bellamy’s ball. Get out.
The Spaniard's defense this time is very decisive and very calm!
After the ball was stabbed, it fell behind Bellamy, David Alaba hurried to catch up, grabbed the Liverpool player, a big foot forward to make a clearance.
The ball was not far from the clearance, and it was still in the Southampton half, at the top of the arc.
Drogba blocked Agger with his body, facing the ball, and headed forward.
The ball was knocked back to Stroman.
The Dutchman faced the offensive direction, raised his head, looked at Neymar on the left and Sturridge on the right. He knew that when the ball arrived, he stopped and rubbed.
The ball traversed a low, flat and fast arc, and it passed over the head of Liverpool left-back Jose Enrique and fell behind the defense.
Sturridge is like a cheetah ready to go. He has long been waiting for the opportunity to stare at its prey. When the ball comes, it immediately starts like a lightning bolt, sprints forward, and immediately throws Jose Enrique off. Behind.
This time, the audience cheered and became fans of Southampton!
All the Saints fans are chanting Sturridge's name, cheering for the England teenager!
After Sturridge left Jose Enrique, there were no defensive players in front.
Another Liverpool centre-back, Scotter, is still a little far away. Even if he runs to defend, Sturridge can already rush into the penalty area.
It can be said that Sturridge's opponent is no longer someone else, but himself.
Stop the ball, take the ball, and hit this single move!
Sturridge sprints very fast, but at the same time he is paying attention to the ball.
In order to avoid being caught up by Jose Enrique, he did not turn around to stop the ball because it was so slow.
He directly faced the falling point of the ball, raised his foot and lightly picked it.
When the instep felt contact with the ball, he knew it was picked.
The ball bounced, the body caught up, and the chest pushed the ball forward.
Although Jose Enrique caught up, Sturridge blocked him with his body.
The Spanish left back stretched out his hand, trying to pull Sturridge from behind.
But the Englishman just staggered, but did not fall to the ground, but took advantage of the trend and started to accelerate again.
greeted the ball, and both the man and the ball entered the penalty area.
Scott came over, Jose Enrique was behind him, but Sturridge didn't even look at them.
He looked at Renner in front of the goal.
This is his only opponent now!
Reina did not dare to attack, his eyes were also fixed on Sturridge, making judgments constantly.
The angle is too big, where will he hit?
left? right? Far corner? Or near angle?
Rainer was a little confused, he couldn't guess Sturridge's choice, he could only watch his movements and react instinctively.
far corner!
The Spanish goalkeeper threw into the far corner!
Ke Sturridge hit a close corner with his left foot!
The ball almost rubbed the right post and got into the lower right corner of the goal!
"!!!"
The whole Wembley Stadium suddenly boiled!
In the stands, all Southampton fans rushed out of their seats frantically, screaming frantically, shouting the name of Sturridge frantically!
"In the 13th minute, Southampton finally broke Liverpool's goal!"
"The first record for the Saints was the English teenager, Daniel Sturridge!"
"This Saint’s striker has performed well this season and has represented the team many times. He has scored 13 goals so far. Among them, he has scored in the Europa League, the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Premier League. !"
Sturridge excitedly rushed to the sidelines, doing his unique dance celebration to the Saints fans in the stands.
Behind him, the Southampton players pounced one after another, and directly threw Sturridge to the ground.
"Bravo!"
"Southampton played very resolutely after the start, and completely suppressed Liverpool with a wave of offense!"
"The Red Army seems very passive. Now they are behind by one more goal. This game will become very difficult for them!"
"This is Liverpool's head coach, Kenny Dalglish, he should start thinking of a way!"
When the players in Southampton celebrated from the sidelines ~EbookFREE.me~ and walked into the stadium, the coach Bielsa on the sidelines also shouted loudly and waved at the players.
Anyone familiar with Southampton must know that Bielsa's move is telling the players.
Don’t relax, just a goal, continue to attack me, press up, crazy attack!
When you encounter a team like Liverpool, you have to be unreasonable.
seized a weak spot, attacked desperately, and strived for more goals.
Once you relax, wait until this tenacious team adjusts and stabilizes the situation, then you have no chance.
At the beginning of the Istanbul miracle, Milan led by three goals. In the second half, the team adjusted and scored three goals. Finally, they defeated Milan and won the Champions League by relying on a penalty kick. champion.
It can be seen that if you don’t take advantage of the situation to beat Liverpool, if you don’t take advantage of the situation, you will die and be disabled.
Therefore, after the re-start, Liverpool took the lead in sounding the counterattack horn.
Southampton, who can lead by one goal, didn't show any fear, and started a head-to-head battle with Liverpool.
In the football stadium, you come and I go against each other, and wonderful scenes frequently appear
