The game against Leicester City, for Liverpool, is a crucial battle on the road to the championship.
If you win, for Liverpool, you can temporarily climb to the top and regain the initiative in the future.
It's just that the King Power Stadium in Leicester City is not so easy to break.
In the Premier League games that have been played this season, Leicester City has achieved a very good record at home.
11 home rounds, 6 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss, this season is also ranked in the forefront of the Premier League.
The only game to lose was at the beginning of the season, when they lost 2 to 5 at home to Arsenal, who were in hot form at the beginning of the season.
And with Leicester City, their record in the game began to become even better. In recent home games, Leicester City have performed quite well, especially at home games, Leicester City's defense is the best.
0-0 and Manchester City, which had the best offensive firepower in the Premier League, scored a goalless draw.
2-1, defeated Chelsea.
1 to 1, a draw with Manchester United.
In the face of several giant teams, Leicester City's performance is always remarkable, try to do its best.
In this game, Liverpool, in the away game, still made some personnel adjustments.
Sturridge lacked the magic of the past two seasons, so Klopp had to deploy some offensive players.
The team returned to a 433 formation on the road.
Jordan Iby replaced Sturridge as the starter again to carry out a more intense fight in the frontcourt.
In the face of Leicester City’s outstanding counter-attacking force, Klopp did not dare to let Yang Feng go too far, but still had to launch offensive tactics in the away field, prioritizing the team’s defense and not being easily broken by the opponent.
Yang Feng's main responsibility today is to guard the backcourt and do a defensive task.
As for Leicester City, which played at home, due to the return of Drinking Godling Walker, the team's midfield strength has become stronger than before.
This is a real championship battle, both sides are all the main players, and it is also the absolute highlight of this round of league.
For Liverpool, in the last match, Leicester City's performance at Anfield has caused them a lot of trouble.
And now, Leicester City sits at home and has greater support from home fans. Perhaps the home team will perform better, so Liverpool must go all out.
"The game is about to begin."
"The referee in charge of this focus battle today is Marina."
"Marina's belly, some seem to stand up."
"It's estimated that I haven't drunk less beer in the past few days, and closed my stomach..."
"Today, because of the weather conditions we learned before the start of the game, it should be cloudy to light rain. And judging from the live broadcast signal before the start of the game, there was also light rain in the sky, so the venue may be slippery. But the latest close-up Judging from the camera, the light rain should have stopped now and it will not have much impact on the game."
"With Marina's whistle, the game officially began."
"The names of the two sides are..."
And just as the commentator was still explaining the lineup of the two sides in further detail, at the beginning of the game, Leicester City played an exquisite frontcourt cooperation.
After the kick-off, Leicester City patiently organized the attack in the backcourt.
And Liverpool still used their crazy pressing in the midfield to put defensive pressure on Leicester City.
However, Leicester City at home, you dare to show your ability to control the ball in the midfield. The players dare to make moves and get rid of Liverpool's pressing defense.
Liverpool's first high pressure in the frontcourt did not receive the desired defensive effect.
Since Schmeichel was young, Leicester City players have been constantly passing and holding the ball to attract Liverpool players to grab the ball and put more pressure on their opponents.
After passing the ball continuously in the backcourt, Albrighton was suddenly in the midfield and sent a long pass to the frontcourt.
Yang Feng played his defensive ability and completed the header brilliantly. He hit the pass to Vardy first, and directly returned it to his teammates.
Henderson dribbled the ball forward in the middle, and directly sent a foot forward to find the pass to Firmino.
It's just that Liverpool want to fight back quickly, but Leicester City's defense in the midfield is very good.
Kanter quickly grabbed the ball and stabbed the ball that hadn't stopped at the feet of Firmino directly in the game.
Delinworker, directly controlled the ball nearby, and directly picked the pass forward.
Mahrez unloaded the football at the Liverpool half and moved forward quickly.
For Mahrez, with his performance this season getting better and better, Mahrez has become more and more confident to show himself on the court.
Now, Mahrez is very hopeful that he will reach a double-double in this season.
The number of goals and assists are not far from double digits.
Mahrez's strongest place is naturally his breakthrough ability.
Excellent breakthrough ability is the best way for Mahrez to show himself in the game.
This time, after the dribble forward, Mahrez always interspersed with emergency stops and swayed laterally while moving, to exert defensive pressure on the opponent.
This is Mahrez's outstanding breakthrough ability display.
Excellent speed, explosive power, and elusive breakthrough methods, and enough fake moves to confuse.
It was Yang Feng who faced Mahrez in 1v1 at this time and could not achieve excellent defensive limits.
This is Yang Feng's least favorite defensive method, and it is the most difficult defensive situation for a central defender.
It's not that Mahrez is really better than those who have already made famous players. Yang Feng can't limit him, but in this direct 1v1 situation, any defensive player will face outstanding offensive players. , Are all in the mobile war, with absolute disadvantages.
In the past, Yang Feng was always able to complete the restrictions on opponents in defense.
That's because there are teammates who lock the area in other ways to allow Yang Feng to have a specific defensive area to create pressure on the opponent.
And what kind of defense does Yang Feng prefer?
There must be at least one teammate in front, and defend first.
In that case, even if the opponent uses his personal ability to complete the breakthrough.
Then Yang Feng, who has made up his defense, can also catch the right time to make defensive choices in time when the opponent has a fixed trajectory.
But this time, his own defensive counterattack was instead being attacked by the opponent. In the case of another counterattack, Skrtel had to take into account the Vardy on the other side, who was already under the side, and could only rely on nearby Yang Feng. When defending Mahrez individually.
Yang Feng's defensive choice is very targeted, that is, to protect his penalty area first in the game.
After all, in the game, is it the easiest distance to be scored by the opponent or within the penalty area.
Therefore, Yang Feng would rather take a step back and maintain the defensive space to ensure defense within the penalty area.
And gave Mahrez the offensive space.
In the process of advancing, Mahrez, after the fake action "successfully" swayed Yang Feng's defense, he took a step laterally to the left and finished a shot with his left foot.
After Yang Feng took the initiative to give up the defensive space for Mahrez, he also wanted to complete the interception after
cheating
Mahrez to hit the goal.
But letting out the space allowed Mahrez to quickly complete a kick in the game. Yang Feng went up again and did not complete the block as he wished.
Mahrez hit the goal, hitting a half-high kick and flew directly to the left side of the goal.
Yang Feng could only choose to believe in Mignole's defensive ability and Mahrez's own shooting skills.
Rebounding the ball on the ground is definitely a more difficult ball to defend for the goalkeeper, and Mignolet did not make a side move.
But Mahrez still made some mistakes in the control of the angle of his shot.
The ball flew out of the bottom line directly against the post and did not score a goal. It can only be said to scare Liverpool's defenders into a cold sweat, but it did not cause substantial damage.
"Majerez, facing Yang Feng's defense, suddenly took a step and completed a shot before the penalty area."
"It's just that he wants to hit a far corner, but there is a slight deviation in the control of the ball. This ball was not scored."
"This season, Mahrez has done a lot of times in his offensive, after breaking through from the center, he has done a lot of shots, but he has almost never scored."
"His long shot is still slightly inferior to his outstanding ability."
"Although Mahrez has the most assists and goals in the Premier League this season and has become a well-deserved top attacker, Mahrez can still improve even more."
"If, in a positional battle, the threat of this long shot can be further enhanced, then he can definitely become a first-class offensive player in the Premier League."
"In fact, this season, Mahrez has already made his mark in Leicester City, and some giants have even extended an olive branch in Chilblain Liquor, but Leicester City is not in a hurry to sell people. After all, players have a few years left. With the contract, Leicester City dare to use it for a while and wait for a higher bid before completing the sale."
"At least this season, winning the Champions League qualification and even hitting the Premier League championship are the reasons for Leicester City to retain the main frame of the team, and even take the initiative to sign in during the winter window."
"This point is about to mention Arsenal. Arsenal did nothing in the winter window, which caused the team to lose a good game. In the case of injuries, there is no suitable replacement player, which directly gives Arsenal the previous lead. Nothing."
Today, Leicester City players have the strongest display of their enthusiasm and running ability on the court.
From Liverpool's penalty area, grabbing Liverpool's backcourt, intercepting the midfield area, and enclosing one's own half.
All Leicester City players, except for the goalkeeper Schmeichel, were in the game and used their best to make a press.
Indeed, Liverpool was robbed.
Liverpool's practice pass is actually very good, and there are no major problems in the multi-leg pass in the backcourt.
But there is a very real problem, that is, Liverpool need to pass the ball to the front to carry out a threatening attack.
In the backcourt, Liverpool's pass was forced to it, which seemed reluctant.
When passing to the midfield, Leicester City players played the team's overall defensive tacit understanding and did a very good job in pressing.
Usually two or three people close together quickly to put defensive pressure on the receiver.
When the ball is passed, the defensive player immediately scatters out and makes a new encirclement.
Constantly use more defenses and less defenses to form a partial defensive advantage, forcing Liverpool's offensive players.
It made Liverpool's attack on the offensive end, which did not cause enough threats at all.
In particular, Kante of Leicester City is an undead midfielder. In his own half, he dashed all over the field to conduct various defenses, fills, and encirclement.
It was under Kanter’s defense that when Coutinho received the ball, Kanter extended a kick from the back and passed the ball out, making Coutinho unable to make a kick. .
And when Liverpool made a local counter-robbing, the Leicester City players who regained the ball could also organize the backcourt pass in an orderly manner. Under the defensive confrontation imposed by Liverpool, they could also obtain good possession of the ball. effect.
In the fourth minute of the game, the home team Leicester City once again created a murderous opportunity in the game.
It was originally the two sides strangling the ball in the midfield~EbookFREE.me~ When Delin Volkert received a return pass from his teammate, he rushed to pick a pass from the midfield and directly passed the ball to the defensive area of ​​Liverpool's midfield. .
Vardy and Yang Feng compete for the top.
This time Vardy's selection is excellent, making Yang Feng's battle for the top not easy.
Although the ball was still headed back, Yang Feng could only take relief as the primary purpose, and could no longer control the ball and clear the ball to his teammates.
It was Kanter's sudden appearance again, this time in Liverpool's half, directly controlling the second landing and sending a straight kick forward.
Although Milner's subconscious reaction directly blocked the ball and kicked it out.
However, it was the Leicester City player who received the ball in the midfield. Drinworker's forward penetration was just on the path of the ball, without stopping the ball, directly facing the ball, just sending another one. Long pass over the top.
Look for Vardy in the front.
Vardy's confrontation with Scott.
Originally, Vardy was guarded by Yang Feng, but because Okazaki Shinji suddenly slant forward to the right, Yang Feng could only go to the nearest in the game to chase after Okazaki Shinji, and then hand Vardy to the defending Scott. Tel.
It's just that Skrtel didn't grab the spot in this new order.
The ball was headed by Vardy and headed directly to the top of the arc.
It was Mahrez’s forward attack again. After removing Vardy’s header pass, he made two consecutive fake moves. After successfully swaying Henderson who returned from defense, he directly completed a kick in the penalty area. Hit the door.
Fortunately, Mignolet showed a very good competitive state in the game, a side throw, and the ball was saved.
Without letting Mahrez, the goal was scored on the right.
