The ten-match suspension is a very heavy penalty for Suarez and Liverpool.
As soon as the sentence was announced, Liverpool had already filed an appeal, hoping that Suarez’s
term
could be reduced as appropriate.
In terms of media campaigns, Yang Feng is used as a link between Liverpool and Chelsea, as a middleman between Suarez and Ivanovic.
Suarez apologized to Ivan, and the post-match behavior that has been forgiven by the other party has also become the content of the file of Liverpool's appeal. Everything is to ease the penalty for Suarez.
However, the appeal still takes time. Suarez can only watch from the sidelines at this time.
When the team competed for the Champions League seat, the lack of the team's main attacker was definitely a huge test for Liverpool.
On the one hand, Liverpool is waiting for the outcome of the appeal. On the other hand, it is also actively practicing offensive tactics without Suarez's participation, making full preparations for the weekend away game.
The appeal result needs to be announced later. In this weekend's game, Suarez can only stay in Liverpool and cheer for the team at home.
In this round, Liverpool will go to an away game to challenge Newcastle, who is fifth in the league.
However, there is as much as 5 points difference between Newcastle and the relegation zone. In the last 4 rounds, it can be regarded as a good point lead. Not surprisingly, there should be no problem with relegation this season.
Until now, Newcastle, who has only won 1 win away, can score 37 points, which is purely based on the excellent record at home to grab enough points.
The previous 17 home games, 9 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses, grabbed 28 home points. The home record is among the Premier League teams, ranking 10th. It can be said that the home battle is quite strong.
This season, they have beaten Tottenham and Chelsea one after another at home. They happen to be Liverpool's direct competitors at this time. It can be said that Newcastle's excellent home scoring rate has helped Liverpool a lot.
But now it is Liverpool's turn to face Newcastle's home court advantage. Whether it can pass the game smoothly depends on the Liverpool players and their own strength.
In this game, without Suarez's play, Rogers made appropriate changes to the team's frontcourt.
Sturridge was placed in the forefront offensive position by Rogers, playing a single forward.
The formation of 451 is no longer the same as before, using Sturridge and Sterling's offensiveness on the left and right sides, as well as finishing ability, to form an offensive trident.
Instead, the team lineup is more focused on the construction of the midfield.
Gerrard continued to partner with Lucas with a double midfielder, while in the midfield position, Henderson on the left, Coutinho in the middle, and Downing on the right formed both a certain impact and a A mid-range offensive combination with good ball ability.
At this time, Liverpool’s offensive tactics are closer to passing and controlling. Rogers, without Suarez, chose to believe in using the overall offensive tactics to create opportunities in the away game.
Newcastle is still the team’s usual 442 formation. In a Premier League game, the home team generally does not choose too conservative lineup configuration in order to give back to the home fans. They want to take the initiative to attack and take the initiative. This is also the reason why Newcastle is slightly stronger than the relegation zone in terms of record, but it can achieve such good results at home.
The team is at home, amidst the cheering and cheering of the fans, they can give full play to the offensive talents of the players, rely on constant goals, try to take the initiative on the court, and try to win the game.
The opening three-fold is not so easy for any visiting team to come to Newcastle home.
At the beginning of the game, Newcastle took the initiative to press forward and actively tried to compete with Liverpool for possession of the ball.
A stance against Liverpool.
But compared with other giants, facing Newcastle's attack method, they are more willing to use a defensive counterattack, giving up the ball and playing a more effective counterattack.
For Liverpool, due to the lack of a very tough defensive midfielder, in order to avoid Newcastle's opening three tactics really calm himself, Rogerster intended to prepare for the game before the game, choosing to let the team start with Newcastle.
Don't worry about the excessive consumption of physical fitness. Liverpool is going to be on the road, playing momentum first, and absolutely cannot be brought into the rhythm of Newcastle.
The players of the two teams in the opening game directly entered the white-hot state of the game.
did not try too much, just attack the opponent directly.
Newcastle are all extremely simple sideways attacking in turns, using the ball to pass, hoping to create a chance to grab points.
Yang Feng and Skrtel entered the game very quickly today, excellent defensive position selection, so that the opponent's pass did not pose too much threat.
Instead, it was Liverpool's counterattack after getting the ball, scaring the home team fans into a cold sweat.
Coutinho’s dribbling change in the counterattack directly played with the opponent’s defender Idara, who was left behind, and gained plenty of space to hit the goal.
A well-prepared long-range shot was completed before the other opponents came to defend.
This kick hit the goal straight to the upper left corner of the goal. Fortunately, Newcastle goalkeeper Robert reacted quickly and quickly took off to lift the football with one palm, only giving Liverpool a chance for a corner kick.
Gerrard's corner kick this time, directly looking for the area in front of the goal.
And where is Yang Feng?
In the penalty area, this time he did not move too much, just staring at the ball, in a proper position, taking off in place, against the defensive interference of the Newcastle central defender, and completed a rather unpretentious header.
"GOAL!!!"
"The ball is in!"
"Yang Feng! Only 3 minutes into the game, it was convenient to use a corner kick to head the goal, which made Liverpool the top spot."
"Liverpool got a fantastic start."
Yang Feng always came forward in times of crisis for the team. This time it was rare for the team to score the first goal in the first time to take the lead.
In this game without Suarez, being able to break the deadlock early is definitely the most critical thing for Liverpool.
Lost the ball at the beginning of the game. For the Newcastle players, it was a big blow. However, after the team fell behind, for the Newcastle players, there was no retreat at this time. They could only rely on offense to create a threat.
Newcastle began to press on the offense in a big way. Compared with the first offense in the opening game, the players' positions were even more advanced and more violent.
This kind of offensive did make Liverpool's defense a bit turbulent, but the corresponding thing was that Newcastle's air defense started to become bigger and more obvious.
Newcastle completed a two-foot long shot outside Liverpool's penalty area in a short time, trying to create a goal opportunity.
And Liverpool's counterattack effect is really good, but it lacks Suarez's counterattack holding point. Liverpool players need more game time to adapt to the existing lineup on the field.
If you can't fight back once, fight a second time, if you can't fight twice, fight a third time.
Liverpool does have a lack of coordination, but thanks to the players' strong personal ability, sometimes the play of this personal ability can determine the situation on the court.
Although Newcastle has a fierce offensive, due to the lack of personal ability of the forward, it is impossible to create enough threats in the penalty area. As a top central defender, Yang Feng is able to deal with various incoming on the defensive end in the face of Newcastle's civilian striker.
was another successful anticipation interception. Newcastle's straight-and-forward pass has been intercepted so easily by Yang Feng for the second time.
After , it was naturally Liverpool who directly fought back.
However, at this time, there should be a fulcrum such as Suarez in the frontcourt, allowing Yang Feng to have a long pass to directly find the frontcourt.
But today, there is no such a comprehensive striker. Liverpool focuses on strengthening the thickness of the midfield. Therefore, in the process of counterattacking, Liverpool also emphasized the rapid advance of the ground when tactics.
Yang Feng made a straight pass, crossing a distance of tens of meters, and prepared to pass the ball to the foot of Gerrard who had already made a counterattack and accelerated forward.
After receiving the ball in the midfield, Gerrard made a horizontal move and passed the ball to Coutinho who was a few meters away.
There are Newcastle players on the front and back. Coutinho is not obsessed with dribbling the ball and giving his opponent a chance to double-team him. Instead, he takes the ball directly with his outside instep. It bounced straight forward and passed to the arc of the Newcastle penalty area.
Sturridge was always at the forefront, diagonally inserted from the right to Coutinho's pass position, took the ball first, and went to the penalty area.
There was a personal interference behind the side, the goalkeeper in front attacked, and the last Newcastle defensive player came to the front left to form a three-person double team.
Sturridge quickly stabbed the ball to the front left position. After Sturridge was surrounded by three people, he lost his balance.
But the ball was successfully missed, and in the huge gap on the left, a red figure belonging to Liverpool appeared.
"Henderson!"
"Quickly plug it in, push it!"
"Successfully hit the empty door!"
"Liverpool took a 2-0 lead in the 18th minute."
"Henderson is celebrating with emotion, but the absolute credit for this ball should belong to Sturridge, who is not greedy for credit, and Coutinho, who sent a critical pass near the center circle..."
After a 2-0 lead, for Liverpool, there is more confidence and a greater fault tolerance rate.
The team can also use a more relaxed attitude to go to the next game.
Different from Liverpool’s easy response, for Newcastle at home, two goals behind, the psychological pressure on the players began to increase, and when dealing with the ball, they began to panic.
This disparity in team morale has made Newcastle's offensive coordination more and more chaotic, and its threatening has become lower.
On the Liverpool side, the defense began to become more stable, and the counterattack effect was getting better and better, and more and more threats were created.
It’s just that the lack of cooperation in a small range of players has a good chance of counterattack in the subsequent quick counterattack, but there are still many flaws in the pass coordination, which caused Liverpool to not be able to expand the score again in the half. .
just brought the two-goal lead back to the second half.
After the adjustment of the intermission time, Newcastle's players obviously improved compared to the last stage of the first half. However, facing Liverpool's defense line headed by Yang Feng, Newcastle's slightly rough offensive was really unable to create Too much threat. First release: https://https://
The English-style long pass and slam play has already been sacrificed a long time ago, but Yang Feng is too stable. The Newcastle striker has no chance to complete the shot within the Liverpool penalty area.
The strong offense at the beginning of the second half did not help Newcastle to catch up to the score, but Liverpool finally seized an opportunity to completely seal the victory.
In the 56th minute of the game, Liverpool's defense expanded to the midfield with amazing results.
Coutinho used to run aggressively, and press for a chance.
After , Coutinho speeded up directly along the left wing after stealing the ball. In an instant, Newcastle still had the advantage in numbers.
It's just that the tall body of the Newcastle midfielder at this time, facing Coutinho's flexibility, is at an absolute disadvantage.
can only retreat continuously, to avoid being Coutinho having enough space to finish.
It's just that when the opponent is planning to stop and retreat at the penalty zone line, and cooperate with the teammate on the other side to help defend, 2 to 1, and directly grab the ball, Coutinho takes the lead to complete the ball.
An oblique through ball, from the open space between the two defenders, passed directly into the penalty area of Newcastle.
Sturridge, who has been fast forward ~EbookFREE.me~, the left defender went to help defend Coutinho, while the right defender could not stop Sturridge's left-footed non-stop ball Hit the door.
A push shot while on the move, Sturridge scored Liverpool's third goal of the game.
A very simple single-handed ball, Newcastle's defense was completely disrupted by Coutinho, making Sturridge almost no defensive pressure when he hit the goal.
Liverpool, with a 3-goal lead, has completely destroyed the mentality of the players of the home team Newcastle.
Although Newcastle is still working hard to attack, many players are already looking like they don't want to fight.
The players' motivation to run has dropped significantly, and the degree of completion of the action has also begun to decrease.
Which goal before Sturridge, in the past 3 minutes, Liverpool's offense has come back again.
Gerrard made a pass to the left with a kick near the center circle. The offside trap created by Newcastle failed. After the referee did not say anything, the Newcastle players did not even bother to run back to defend.
Henderson plugged in and received a pick pass from Gerrard. In the same horizontal position, it turned out that the Liverpool player's 3-0.
There is no defender, only the goalkeeper in front of the goalkeeper.
Henderson drove directly into the penalty area. After attracting the attention of the opponent's goalkeeper, he crossed to Sturridge at the back point. Sturridge followed up and shot the empty goal, expanding the score advantage to 4-0. , Completely defeated Newcastle.
Even without Suarez, Liverpool is still the invincible Liverpool!
