Chapter 599: .599 Ideal is full, reality is skinny

The overall rhythm of the Battle of Stamford Bridge was obviously slow after the start of the game.
The state of Liverpool is clear at a glance. The players show less keenness and agility in passing, receiving and controlling the ball, and it is also a bit difficult to accelerate the start. The consequence is that the passing error rate increases and the breakthrough success rate drops significantly. There are very few threats created.
On Chelsea's side, it is a stable defense in the midfield and the backfield, and partial force in the midfield.
With Hazard and Oscar's wing breakthrough and William's advance, Eto'o is looking for opportunities.
Hazard’s insistence on Flanagan is mostly stable, so Liverpool needs Henderson to help defend the side to ensure that the defense does not make a big mess. It seems that Liverpool, who has played a three-back defensive formation, is actually defensive. The pattern is not so strict, because Henderson and Eriksson will help defend the side lanes, and the space left by the middle lane will be relatively large.
Fortunately, the effect of Chelsea's single-player rushing style is also very general. The game is in a stalemate. No one can take the other side. No one will take the initiative to speed up. Liverpool can't move, Chelsea is cautious.
Most of the coaches of the two teams directing the game on the sidelines only remind the players not to lose positions in defense.
Or remind players to get tough after a failed fight.
The cheer at Stamford Bridge was deafening, but the players of the two teams on the field failed to bring the fans a thrilling battle, which was more than intense and lacking in excitement.
In terms of schedule, the Football Association "gave preferential treatment" to Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League group stage, but it was very unfriendly to Liverpool during the Devil's schedule. It must be known beforehand that Manchester City and Liverpool's schedule will be played consecutively. This is probably to balance the demands of other giants. , So as not to give someone the handle to give or receive privately with Liverpool.
In the two away battles within 48 hours, Liverpool could only choose one of the two. Situ Yunbing chose the former. Then when he came to Stamford Bridge, he obediently played defensive counterattacks, not doing what he wanted, even against his own team. No matter how high the requirements are, and the pursuit is farther, we can't ignore the serious consequences of really ruining the team in this festive atmosphere.
They are players and fighters, but before that, they are still human.
Suarez’s condition today is better than Gareth Bale. Players like Gareth Bale who rely on speed and physical condition to feed on, or to play a more stable basic physical condition will account for a bigger factor. Today The performance is a bit inefficient.
For the first time in a year and a half, I saw him struggling so much in a game. Even when no one was close, it seemed as if he was struggling with the ball.
Suarez still feels better in passing and receiving the ball. After all, he has better technical ability, but when his teammates are sluggish, he seems to be alone.
Chelsea’s most threatening in the first half was Hazard, but the threat Hazard created from outside the penalty area was not enough to penetrate Liverpool’s goal. The development into the penalty area always ended in no time. Van Dijk and Benatia were formed. The defense line performed very well today.
At the end of the dull first half of the game, Situ Yunbing walked into the player channel with great thought.
After returning to the locker room, he decided to change. Instead of keeping Gareth Bale struggling on the court, he might as well switch to Sterling to try his luck.
That's right, for this level of battle, changing to Sterling is just a chance. If Situ Yunbing wants to put hope on him, how helpless and desperate is it?
After an intermission, Liverpool took the lead in making substitutions at the beginning of the second half.
Sterling did perform much better than Gareth Bale after he came on the field. In several counterattacks, he broke through, cut in, received, and crossed very well, but Suarez still struggled with him under close guard. Form contact and interaction.
Chelsea also insisted on the first half of the game, and the effect was still average.
Situ Yunbing and Mourinho were both pacing on the sidelines. When they inadvertently walked to the nearest edge of the command area, they looked at each other suddenly, both showing a somewhat helpless look.
Liverpool is an exhausted shell, really intent to kill thieves and unable to recover!
Chelsea is dragging an old body and a stubborn soul, with full of ideals, but facing the skinny reality.
When the game time passed by one minute and one second, the two teams did not create a threat. The fans also believed that the game ended with a good chance. In the 80th minute of the game, Hazard broke through the bottom left of the front field and then turned. Entering the cross-cutting track, Flanagan and Henderson chased him and intercepted him. Hazard, who had just reached the penalty area, suddenly dialed the ball and changed to the direction outside the penalty area. Henderson's leg stretched out and did not touch the ball. Ah Zal fell heavily into the penalty area.
Henderson angrily accused Hazard of flopping, but the referee has already taken a penalty.
Situ Yunbing frowned with a headache.
This penalty came at no time, it was too late!
It depends on whether Chelsea can score.
Veteran Frank Lampard took the penalty kick in no time, Ter Stegen saved the wrong direction!
When the football flew into the Liverpool goal, there was a deafening cheers at Stamford Bridge!
The Blues fans were extremely excited.
"Hazard made a point, Lampard scored a goal! This dull game finally scored, and the home team Chelsea now leads Liverpool!
Will Liverpool, who have been unbeaten in 18 league matches this season, be broken today?
There is not much time left for Liverpool to equalize! "
Situ Yunbing used up two substitutions at one time, and Vardi and Coutinho came on stage and tried hard to make the last fight!
Mourinho also made substitutions to strengthen defense, defense, and defense!
The pace of the game began to speed up due to the changes in the score, but Liverpool's counterattack was a bit ugly, the success rate of passing and receiving was still not high, Chelsea almost gave up the counterattack and defended it all!
It really is Mourinho's style.
Give him a chance to seize 3 points, and he will do everything to make victory a reality.
In the end, Liverpool failed to rewrite the score, harvesting the second defeat of the season, and also the first defeat in the Premier League!
At the end of the game, enthusiastic cheers rang from Stamford Bridge!
Regardless of whether Mourinho's performance is good or bad after his return, at least he led the team to defeat Liverpool, which is enough to make Chelsea fans ecstatic!
Situ Yunbing still graciously took the initiative to find Mourinho to shake hands after the game.
After shaking hands, the two briefly exchanged a few words before leaving.
In an interview after the game, Situ Yunbing was very calm and restrained in the face of this defeat.
"To be honest, Liverpool did not perform well today, but I will not delve into this game. Objective factors determine that it is really difficult for us to play better today. The team needs to recuperate. We will rotate in the next round of the league. Liverpool fans are depressed because they failed to win in these two leagues, so please accept my apology. I also hope that everyone in Liverpool can have a happy Christmas.
We will regroup as soon as possible and get back on the track of victory. "
Mourinho was also very calm about his victory in an interview after the game.
"Although we won the game, we are still 8 points behind to Liverpool. This is a big gap, but the good news is that we chased 5 points in two league rounds. This victory will bring the team to a certain extent. Motivation and morale improved, but we still face a difficult season."
In the same round of the league, Manchester United, Manchester City, and Arsenal all won. In other words, in the traditional Premier League, only Liverpool lost in the away game, and other strong teams all scored 3 points!
At the end of the Premier League half-time league, Liverpool's half-time ending is not perfect, but it is still the leader in the standings.
Liverpool, 48 points.
Chelsea, 40 points.
Manchester City, 39 points.
Arsenal, 39 points.
......
The devil's schedule is not over yet, and for three days of truce, Liverpool will face Hull City on New Year's Day.
The FA's ticket to Situ Yunbing was announced on the morning of the 29th and faxed to the Liverpool Club.
He was fined 30,000 pounds and suspended for one game.
The second half of the league kicked off in full swing. On January 1, 2014, Liverpool played at home against Hull City.
Situ Yunbing appeared in the box to watch the game. Before the game, Liverpool fans displayed dense slogans in the stands to support him.
The most eye-catching line is "You never need to apologize, we love you!"
As the coach, Situ Yunbing overlooked the stadium in the box, expecting his disciples to bring the team a victory in the context of two rounds of invincibility.
Liverpool had a rotation today.
Coutinho, Vardi, and Sterling formed the trident.
Henderson, Casemiro and Eriksson formed a midfielder.
Azpilicueta lifted the ban and returned. Coulibaly and Scott formed the double gate of the back line, and Robertson continued to play.
Reina guards the gate.
Hull City swept Fulham 6:0 at home in the last round. The state is extraordinary. This may give them the illusion that they can come to Anfield to challenge Liverpool without the command of the coach.
As a result, their aggressive play was ruthlessly destroyed in front of Liverpool!
If Hull City played a defensive counterattack, Liverpool might really be a little embarrassed, but the opponent took the initiative to attack, Liverpool is absolutely happy to see.
Vardy and Sterling are both useful, and Coutinho and Eriksson also have room to play.
Liverpool quickly scored two goals in the first half with the momentum of the Thunder, Vardy and Coutinho each made a difference, when Hull City recovered, the game had almost no suspense.
Hull City suddenly launched a counterattack in the second half and failed to break Liverpool's goal, although they did put a lot of pressure on Liverpool but also created danger.
Sterling staged a long-distance attack to hit Huanglong.
In the end, Liverpool defeated Hull City 3:0 at home and succeeded in winning.
