Chapter 315: Change failed


Liverpool’s bench in this game definitely has a lot of power that can further improve the team’s offensive level.
Dalglish has plenty of hole cards in this game to support himself in the offensive end.
It's just that Dalglish needs to carefully consider which card to play first in the second half.
Carroll is a player with obvious advantages and disadvantages on both ends of the offense and defense.
Although he can use his tall and strong body as the team's high point support in the front, but also, because of the drag of his body shape, Carol naturally moves more slowly.
With the frontcourt pressing on defense, Carroll's side is also the easiest way for opponent players to create opportunities and complete the breakthrough.
And Gerrard, as the soul of the Red Army, his appearance on the field is definitely helpful to boost the morale of the team, and his offensive threat in the middle and his passing ability with a decent kick can help. The team improves offense in the center.
But after all, Gerrard just returned from injury, his physical fitness and the state of the game are unknown. In such a fierce game, it is more than enough to let him play on the bench for about 20 minutes. Let him play directly at the start and run the entire second half. , Dalglish still couldn't bear it.
The remaining two attackers in the midfield, the Argentine Maxi, Dalglish did not like his slack attitude outside the court. He felt that it was inconsistent with Liverpool's iron spirit, so he has been deliberately suppressing his playing time. And another young midfielder, Sherway, does not have such outstanding speed and physical confrontation ability. Although he has a good long shot and ball ability, his age is too young. Dalglish also dare not play in the second half. From the beginning, let such a teenager bear such a heavy offensive pressure.
After struggling with the pros and cons, Dalglish chose Andy Carroll to play at the beginning of the second half and tilted all offensive tactics on the two sides, especially the left side.
If the left wing can maintain the threat of the cross, then Liverpool can have Carroll and Kuyt two high points in the penalty area to fight for the first place, and Suarez can fully play his own expertise. Find the second point in the penalty area and directly complete the goal.
Substituting Carroll for the young midfielder Spearing also turned Liverpool back into a winning lineup in previous games, and the formation play is no stranger to the players. However, this kind of offensive play that will become more extreme means that the team's defense will have to withstand a more severe counterattack test than in the first half.
Unlike Liverpool’s tactics that are destined to aggressively attack in the second half of the game, Manchester City, which has always occupied the suppressing power on the field before, during the intermission, Mancini focused on the team’s defense.
Judging from the frequency and persistence of Liverpool's attack in the first half, Mancini felt that Dalglish would not be reconciled to give up. No surprises, the attack would be launched immediately in the second half.
Therefore, instead of the team taking the risk and fighting against Liverpool, it is better to let the team defend well and wait for the opportunity to directly attack the hinterland of Liverpool.
Mancini emphasized that in the counterattack, Aguero should pay attention to pulling the side and hand over the task of grabbing points in the center to Dzeko and other follow-up players. Aguero is to play the right midfielder in the counterattack. The position is guaranteed to complement Silva on the left and fully raise the speed of Manchester City's counterattack.
In the first half, Mancini looked at Yang Feng’s defense from the sidelines. Under Yang Feng’s command, Liverpool first relied on the player’s biased position to completely control Silva’s counter-attack when he received the ball on the left. .
Then in the middle, Yang Feng used his personal ability and cooperated with his teammates to complete the marking of Dzeko and Aguero without the number of dominant players.
As for the right wing, there is a huge gap in the first time, but Milner's speed cannot reach the speed level of a first-line offensive player, so it can give other Liverpool players time to change their defenses.
Mancini allowed Aguero to use his speed to tear apart Liverpool’s defenses through the exchange of positions between Aguero and Milner on the counterattack end, creating a greater threat for Manchester City when counterattacking.
"At the beginning of the second half of the game, Liverpool first made substitutions and adjustments, replacing the teenager Spearing with Carroll. It seems that Dalglish is preparing to make a difference on the offensive end in the opening game. During the pass, Manchester City’s defense line was broken..."
Liverpool’s attack on the left side is indeed strong, but Manchester City’s targeted arrangements are also very effective. Milner and Richards are standing up, Barry in the middle often helps defend, and Aguero and Dzeko retreat from time to time. Harassment, Liverpool's first wing attack directly hit the iron plate.
Mancini, in the case of Liverpool's offensive ability is not very strong, dared to be confident and bold to completely lock Liverpool's wing attack line.
Although you can move the ball to the right in a wide range, due to Kuyt's own competitive state, you can't ask for a veteran over 30 years old to be so versatile on the offensive end like those youngsters.
Kuyt's attack on the right is still the mainstay, and the main breakthrough is the cross task, which can only be handed over to the right back Glen Johnson who is inserted in the attack.
The two full-backs both jumped into the offense by a large margin. In the defensive end of the backcourt, Liverpool had a serious lack of speed players.
"Glen Johnson made a 45-degree cross and went directly to Carol, the high point in the penalty area!"
"Yaya Toure and Koroture, the double team of the brothers!"
"For this ball, Koroture used physical confrontation to suppress Carol's take-off height, allowing Yaya Toure to easily push the ball directly out of the penalty area."
The brothers join the heart, and the profit breaks the gold.
The Touré brothers, defensive cooperation this time, are very tacit.
Yaya Toure can also accurately give the ball to Barry in the middle outside the penalty area without much interference.
After receiving the ball, Barry took the ball directly.
Since Barry was very comfortable in receiving the ball, he didn't need to adjust too much, and he didn't have many people in the middle of Liverpool himself, so Barry pushed forward in the first place.
Aguero saw the completion of Yaya Tourei's contention, and immediately rushed to the defensive line of Liverpool's left.
Silva, who is still interspersed between Liverpool's right and center, can either take a step back and receive Barry's pass to become the most forward point of rapid advancement, but also can find opportunities to complete the forward penetration and directly give Liverpool The back guard heart is inserted with a knife.
Dzeko is directly in the middle, with Scotter's defense, pushing forward.
Manchester City's counterattack, all three lines came out, are all putting pressure on Liverpool's defense.
Barry's dribbling speed is extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye he bumped into Charlie Adam who was rushing over. Charlie Adam was fouled on the ball. He would rather foul than allow his opponent to easily counterattack.
However, Barry chose to strike Milner on the right side. Even though Milner could not form the first wave of counterattack, he still ran tirelessly and participated in the counterattack. At this time, it happened to receive Barry's pass.
"Milner, pass straight ahead, looking for Aguero on the right."
"In the speed competition between Jose Enrique and Aguero, he doesn't have the advantage!"
Yang Feng watched the situation on the field nervously. This time Aguero did not continue to wait for the pass from his teammates in the middle to complete the offense, but went to the side to catch the ball, which was beyond Yang Feng's expectation.
However, Jose Enrique was not in an excellent defensive position due to his previous attack, and there was a huge gap behind him, and he could not stop Aguero's rapid advance.
Yang Feng was also caught off guard by such a tricky situation at the beginning of the second half.
Glen Johnson has not returned to his position because of the previous assist pass. Yang Feng can only look at Silva's side, and Skrtel needs to defend Dzeko~EbookFREE.me~José Enri In the case of 3v3, Ke failed to defend Aguero and directly disrupted Liverpool's defense.
Although Johnson and Henderson were both chasing back quickly, they were still a few steps away.
"Scott, go and stop Aguero!"
"Henderson, look after Silva!"
While directing his teammates loudly, Yang Feng approached the center directly, preparing to take up the defensive position after Scotter left and defend Dzeko himself.
Although Henderson is still a few steps away from Silva, Yang Feng can only choose to gamble now, at least to resolve the threat of Aguero.
With Skrtel's forward interception, Aguero's shooting angle was blocked by most, Aguero could only choose to continue to accelerate and go straight to the bottom.
Zheke in the middle of the road moved directly forward, engaged in a fierce physical confrontation with Yang Feng, seizing the dominant position and preparing to grab a spot.
But Aguero's final shot near the bottom line did not find Dzeko in front of him, but directly used his force, and a half-high ball swept to the far end!
This pass passed between Renner and Yang Feng. Yang Feng saw the pass route, but was already powerless. He couldn't rush forward and could not reach the ball.
Henderson, who was at the back point, was still struggling to chase, but he had not rushed to Silva's side, while Silva was unguarded and headed directly into the net from close range. Reina quickly The save after the side shift is also useless!
"GOAL!!!"
"David Silva! In Manchester City's opening counterattack, the header contributed to Manchester City. Manchester City took the lead 2-0 at home!"
In the second half, Liverpool’s offense had not yet fully begun, and it was hit again. Manchester City’s counter-attack blitz scored directly pushed Liverpool into the abyss...
