Chapter 414: League Cup


  While Liverpool defeated CSKA Moscow 3:1 away, in another match of the same group, Wolfsburg defeated Eindhoven 2:0 at home.
   So in the standings after three rounds of the group stage, the situation of Liverpool's group is still clear, basically it is the situation where Liverpool and Wolfsburg qualify together.
   Liverpool ranked first with 2 wins, 1 tie and 7 points, and Wolfsburg ranked second with 2 wins, 1 loss and 6 points.
   Then CSKA Moscow ranked third with 3 points, and Eindhoven finished bottom with 1 point.
   Speaking of it, Eindhoven's point was still taken from Liverpool.
   Among the other UEFA Champions League group matches in the middle of the week, there were two strong and powerful matches that received much attention.
   Real Madrid challenged Paris in an away game. This game can be regarded as Real Madrid's vengeance against Rogers. Last season, Real Madrid lost to Liverpool in the Champions League semi-finals and also lost to Rogers.
   Now Rogers has gone to coach in Paris, but once again met Real Madrid.
   In the end, this game hit a 0:0, which was a disappointment for everyone.
   Another strong match is Arsenal's home game against Bayern. This is Arsenal's qualifying battle.
   In the third round of the group stage, there was a life-and-death battle to qualify. This is indeed a shame, but it is the fact.
   If they can't win Bayern at home, Arsenal will basically say goodbye to the Champions League this season.
   Arsenal on the edge of the cliff completed a bottoming out. They defeated Bayern 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium and continued to retain the possibility of qualifying in the group.
   At the same time, the other two pairs in the Premier League match, Chelsea drew 0:0 away from Dynamo Kyiv, and Manchester City defeated Sevilla 2:1 at home, all of which were considered good results.
   In the current state of Chelsea's shit, it is not bad to score a point against Dynamo Kyiv.
   Only three rounds of the Champions League group stage, Lee Chenglong has scored 8 goals in the Champions League, which set a record for his career.
   Seasonal Champions League group match goal record.
   Previously, Jackie Lee's single-season Champions League group match goal record was only 6.
   Now, Lee Chenglong has set his own record to 8, and is only one goal away from the single-season Champions League team scoring record.
   Cristiano Ronaldo in the 13/14 season and Adriano in the 14/15 season, they both scored 9 goals in the group stage.
   It is also worth mentioning that after finishing this brace, Lee Chenglong's total number of goals in the Champions League has reached 47.
   Such a number of goals allowed Li Chenglong to rise to the top ten in the Champions League total scorer list, tied for eighth with Eusebio.
   Among the players in front of Lee Chenglong, only Ronaldo and Messi are active players, and the others are all retired stars.
   In all aspects of football, Lee Chenglong is trying his best to prove that he is a player of the same level as Melo.

   After the UEFA Champions League game in the middle of the week, the Premier League weekend followed.
   On October 25th, in the 10th round of the Premier League, Liverpool played Southampton at home.
  Because they have already suffered two straight draws before, Manchester City is gradually catching up, so this game, Uncle Zha is required to score three points.
   If Liverpool can't win this game and Manchester City wins again, then Liverpool will lose the top spot after this round.
   Of course, this round of Manchester City's game is not easy, they are going to usher in the first Manchester City derby this season, and it is an away game, it is still a bit difficult to get three points.
   At Anfield, facing his old club, Mane is in excellent form.
   He broke the deadlock for Liverpool in the first half, then made the opponent's red card in the second half, and at the same time sent a nanny assist to help Lee Chenglong also scored.
   In this way, Liverpool won the Saints Southampton 2-0 cleanly at home, ending two unbeaten rounds and continuing the team's unbeaten record.
   At the same time, in other games of this round, Manchester City dampened Manchester United 0:0 at Old Trafford.
   In this case, Liverpool took the opportunity to open up the two-point difference.
   At present, Liverpool continue to occupy the top spot with 26 points, and Manchester City ranks second with 22 points.
   The point difference between the two teams was expanded to 4 points, which is a relatively safe point difference. At least one game can't be caught.
   Arsenal took the opportunity to catch up and are only one point away from Manchester City.
   In addition, Chelsea lost again this round. They lost 1:2 away to West Ham in the London Derby and slipped to the relegation zone.
  ※※※
   October 28th, the midweek League Cup round of 16 match day.
   This time, Liverpool will face the relegation team Bournemouth at home, and Uncle Zha once again arranged a substitute lineup.
   Liverpool have had too many games this season, and when the Christmas schedule is intensive, the team will fly to Japan to participate in the Club World Cup, so of course the key players in the team must rest.
   It is worth mentioning that the current AFC Champions League has ended in the semi-finals. Guangzhou Evergrande has reached the final without any surprise and will face the UAE team Dubai Ahli in the final.
   It should not be a big problem for Evergrande to win the AFC Champions League. After all, the AFC Champions League in recent years has long been won by East Asian teams.
   Therefore, the Chinese media have also begun to look forward to the match between Evergrande and Liverpool in the Club World Cup.
   In the main scene against the weak Bournemouth, even if Liverpool played off the bench, they still successfully advanced.
   Adam Lallana scored a long shot in the first half. This was the only goal in the game. Liverpool eliminated Bournemouth 1-0 and successfully advanced to the League Cup quarter-finals.
   In this week's League Cup round of sixteen, there were three upsets.
   Chelsea was eliminated by Stoke City, this can only be regarded as a small cold, after all, Stoke City is a Premier League team, and Chelsea is in a mess at present.
   But Manchester United was eliminated at home by the British crown team Middlesbrough~EbookFREE.me~ Arsenal lost 0:3 away to the British crown's Sheffield on Wednesday. These two games were relatively big upsets.
   In other words, four of the top six Premier League teams in this season's League Cup are not present.
   In addition to Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United who were out of this round at the same time, Tottenham have also been out. They drew Derby in the last round and were eliminated by Arsenal 1:2 at home.
   So now, only Liverpool and Manchester City are still in the League Cup.
   Soon, the results of the League Cup quarterfinals draw by the FA came out.
   Liverpool did not draw Manchester City, but they did not draw easy opponents either.
   Among the current eight-final teams in the League Cup, there are four British championship teams: Sheffield Wednesday, Fort Mille, Hull City and Stoke City.
   In other words, in terms of probability, Liverpool should have half the probability of drawing the English Championship team.
   It is a pity that the Football Association successfully avoided the four teams and got Southampton, who had just played against each other in the league.
   If it is all the main force facing Southampton, Liverpool will have no problem winning the opponent.
   But if they played off the bench, Liverpool would have played the Saints without seeing them, especially in away games.
