Chapter 613: .613 Attack that sincerity

The first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals struck.
Liverpool will face Chelsea at Anfield Stadium.
At the press conference before the game, Situ Yunbing expressed a cautious view on the game.
"All season, we have seen Mourinho very low-key build up character. Even when his team ranked second in the league, he claimed that there was no hope for the championship. He compared Liverpool to a sports car and compared his own ball. The team is likened to a small pony. The advantage in the Premier League does not mean that Liverpool can win the Champions League knockout. This is not objective.
In the cup, defense is emphasized, and Mourinho is good at defense.
This is Chelsea’s advantage. This may be the toughest battle we have encountered in the Champions League, because the final outcome of the game is determined by the mentality, not on strength.
We must be fully awakened and face a tough battle. "
Mourinho is really good at accumulating character. Compared to the defiant man who came to England ten years ago, he is more low-key and humble at Chelsea this season.
Less aggressive than in the past.
His remarks before leaving for Anfield were: "Chelsea must be prepared to go to Anfield to be beaten. There may not be a team in European football that can retreat at Anfield. The first leg of the game is very important. We lose one goal, even if we return to the home court, there will be huge psychological pressure, and if we lose two goals, we are basically eliminated. Not conceding a goal is the key. I hope the team can do this at Anfield. a little."
The coaches of the two teams value the contests between the teams, without mentioning the past grudges.
This is a positive phenomenon that makes the game simpler and purely competitive.
Whether it is between Liverpool and Chelsea clubs, or between Situ Yunbing and Mourinho, there are actually many grievances, but now letting go of the burden of those additional factors can make the two teams focus more on their own performance to pursue what they want the result of.
In the evening of April 2, the Chelsea team arrived at Anfield Stadium.
The Red Army fans entered the stadium early and organized an orderly cheer, trying to create pressure on the visiting Chelsea.
There is basically no suspense for Liverpool's defending league championship this season. The remaining 6 rounds only need to get 3 points to declare the defending success. It is only a matter of time before winning the championship.
Therefore, Liverpool fans naturally hope that without the baggage of the league, the team can concentrate on striving for greater glory in the European competition!
Situ Yunbing said seriously to every player in the locker room before the game: "Chelsea will definitely use their strongest defense to limit our offense. I have been talking about mentality for the past few days, and I will send in at this time. Use the field, let's not mess around with our opponents, and don't imagine how many goals we must score!
We also have to make sure that we don't lose the ball, and try our best to create threats and score goals!
Remember, the UEFA Champions League is different from the league. The prerequisite for you to make it through is not to lose!
Fight with the conviction of victory, but fight with the mindset of undefeated.
We want to prove that we are more worthy of reaching the Champions League semi-finals, so we must prove to be stronger than Chelsea in our mentality! "
The Liverpool generals nodded to express their understanding.
Situ Yunbing didn't give the team blood. At this stage, this stage, relying on a passion for good performance, but may not be able to go further with the greatest probability.
When Situ Yunbing walked into the court, he and Mourinho shook hands on the sidelines, and the two nodded tacitly to each other. Perhaps the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals had already been deemed to be very exciting before the game. Low, but does not prevent the Premier League civil war from gaining the attention of a large number of Premier League fans.
Chelsea’s goal this season is very clear. Mourinho is adapting the team and re-adapting to the competitive environment of the Premier League. He has never listed himself as a favorite. He knows that a high profile is bound to be miserable. It is better to play low-key and pragmatically. Foundation, fight for the coming year.
But there is no shortage of dreamers in the UEFA Champions League, especially the knockout matches only require 180 minutes or 210 minutes of fate, and do not need to last as long as 38. On this stage, everyone is equal in a sense. The key is Is it possible to reach the threshold of entry?
Obviously, Chelsea have been a non-negligible role in this feast over the past ten years. Whether the outside world is optimistic or not optimistic about them, they will not be the cousin to accompany the Prince to study.
The most typical is to reach the finals under the background of the coaching change in the 08 season. The coaches also changed in 12 years and eliminated Barcelona to enter the finals with the old and weak.
Now Chelsea, led by Mourinho, will devote all their energy to the Champions League. If they pass the Liverpool level, this unprecedented morale encouragement may also make them one of the favorites in an instant.
And before the start of the two rounds of competition, Situ Yunbing kept reminding himself to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and not to underestimate the enemy for a moment, otherwise he would fail!
When the starting players of the two teams walked into the court, Situ Yunbing looked slightly solemn.
The cheering at Anfield Stadium was earth-shattering, and the fans were as enthusiastic as ever, looking forward to a wonderful game.
"Good evening, friends and spectators, and welcome everyone to follow the camera to the Anfield Stadium in Liverpool, England, where the first round of the UEFA Champions League knockout quarter-finals is about to start here.
Liverpool played against Chelsea at home.
This is the Premier League civil war in the Champions League!
Regardless of whether the speculation about the conspiracy of UEFA draws is true or not, the two teams will now fight each other for a top four spot!
Liverpool has performed more aggressively this season than last season. With the strength of the three strong players joining the team in the summer, Liverpool has a great success in the league. Now they are ahead of second place Manchester City and Chelsea by 16 points. They only Need to get another 3 points to lock the league champion in advance, and there are still 6 rounds in the Premier League. It can be said that the Premier League champion is already in their pocket.
Chelsea has been stumbling on all fronts this season, with ups and downs.
After Mourinho returned to rebuild the team, progress seems to be a bit slow, but Chelsea is still better than the same period last year!
At least they ranked in the top three in the league, and at the same time the Champions League also entered the quarter-finals.
I just don’t know how Chelsea will perform in front of Liverpool. The two teams have met in the Premier League. Liverpool lost a goal at Stamford Bridge. This may make Chelsea fans full of confidence in Mourinho.
Okay, let's take a look at the starting roster of the two teams today.
Liverpool started 433 today.
Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.
Defenders: Azpilicueta, Van Dijk, Benatia, Robertson.
Midfielder: Kanter, Gerrard, Casemiro.
Forwards: Gareth Bale, Suarez, Coutinho.
Liverpool's starting lineup is not surprising.
But Chelsea's starting lineup will definitely surprise people.
Mourinho lined up a formation of 541 in the away game.
Goalkeeper: Cech.
Defenders: Ivanovic, Terry, David Louis, Cahill, Ashley Cole.
Midfielder: Ramirez, Mikel, Lampard, William.
Forward: Hazard.
That's right, Mourinho has played five defenders, four midfielders with certain defensive capabilities, and the forwards did not play center, but Hazard, who was relatively free to move.
Obviously, Mourinho intends to defend himself in the away game to ensure that he can retreat in the first leg!
Haha, today Liverpool are going to fight a tough battle they have never experienced before!
I don't know if they will be surprised by Chelsea's lineup.
The kick-off ceremony before the game is coming to an end, let us appreciate the confrontation between the two teams in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals! "
Mourinho and Situ Yunbing stood in the coach command area separately, both of them looked serious, as if they had the solemn spirit of the coming of a war.
Situ Yunbing thought that Mourinho would set the iron barrel formation, but he did not expect him to be so thorough!
Rather than attaching the "541" hat to this formation, it's better to be simpler, more generous, and calmer. "901" is more appropriate to describe the image.
He has no doubt that the back line will never go two yards outside the penalty area, and the midfield line will definitely not be more than 5 yards away from the back line!
As for the released Hazard, where he likes to go, if a blind cat catches a dead mouse, Chelsea will win the jackpot!
Some people will definitely say that Mourinho is a counselor, but from the standpoint of Situ Yunbing, this is the master showdown!
Because there are a hundred tactics for Chelsea, maybe this is the only option that is hopeful to retreat at Anfield!
All other choices will definitely die!
When the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, Chelsea really started to retreat with Liverpool’s attack, and then deployed a double-layer defense between 20 and 30 yards in front of the goal. More troops are concentrated in the middle, even if It is at the back line, and David Luiz, who is relatively free to help defend at will, can also avoid the disastrous consequences of Luiz’s own running and jumping habits on the defense line.
Liverpool encountered the tight defense of the opponent's three and three layers in the beginning, and it was really under pressure.
Because this will make them feel at a loss where they can't start. Once the striker goes to the front of the penalty area, it is tantamount to throwing into the net. The line and angle of the line are blocked, but the midfielder does not know how to develop the offense. , Risky passing cannot guarantee the success rate, it is nothing more than giving the ball to the opponent.
So in the end, he can only start from the side. This is how Liverpool have been intensively training for more than a month.
When Gareth Bale made a lap from the right and broke through Ashley Cole's bottom, he had no choice but to make a cross, because Chelsea’s defensive line retreats in the partial shrinkage space and he has no continuous breakthrough or internal Cut the space of the restricted area.
Gareth Bale's cross was not unexpectedly cleared by Cahill.
Liverpool immediately wanted to make a two-point counter-attack to initiate a continuous attack, but Lampard volleyed the ball directly to Liverpool's half.
Although there is no threat, there is enough buffer time for Chelsea's defensive line to adjust and re-arrange, and Liverpool must relaunch the offensive from back to front!
Tackling tough, tackling tough.
What Liverpool are going to attack today is the solidity of Chelsea!
