The sweeping army of the greenery

Chapter 110 Good luck

As a player, if you just train normally every day, you still have a lot of free time. Li Tiancheng has the time to see Liu Yifei off.

As a team, Liverpool didn't have a moment of leisure. There was only four days between the league and the Champions League group stage, and there was still travel time. They couldn't even complete a basic training cycle, and there was no time to adjust their status.

Spain, Galicia Autonomous Region, Deportivo La Coruña home stadium Riazzo.

In the 0405 UEFA Champions League season, the fourth round of Group A, Liverpool's away game against Deportivo officially started.

This is Benitez's first return visit to Spain after taking over as Liverpool coach.

It was also the first time for several Spaniards in the team and Li Tiancheng to return to Spain.

It's much more comfortable here.

Although it has entered November, Spain is still sunny, which is as good as the cold and humid Liverpool.

With the warm sun shining on my body, watching the game drunkenly is simply enjoyable.

It's just that although the environment is good, if the main course is raw, it won't be a good dish anyway.

Benitez is planning to cook a pot of raw rice for this game.

News came before the game that with Rivaldo's goal, Olympiacos beat Monaco at home.

Rivaldo is worthy of the title of trowel, and he completely messed up the situation in Group A by himself.

As a result, Monaco ranks first with six points, Liverpool and Olympiacos share five points, and Deportivo have two points.

This is a great opportunity for both Liverpool and Deportivo.

Deportivo de La Coruña hadn't cooled off yet, but now they actually have a chance. As long as they win, they will accumulate five points in skills, and their hopes of qualifying will be greatly increased.

No one can bear this temptation, they have to work hard, so as to atone for the previous collapse.

But Liverpool's situation is much better. It is best to win, and a draw is also fine. As long as they have a goal difference, they can regain the top spot in Group A, as long as they don't lose.

So Benitez's arrangement made Li Tiancheng murmur.

Cisse broke his leg, and it was not surprising that Baros was the lone striker.

Kewell was lying in ambush behind Barosh, Riise and Garcia lined up on the left and right.

Riise, a left back, was once again premised, and Garcia was forced to become a left, center and right all-around talent, which is nothing.

The central defender combination of Hyypia and Carragher is considered the most stable, and Traore and Josemi are also considered left and right.

The goalkeeper is the young goalkeeper Kirkland. Although Dudek has more experience, who makes him always attack rashly? This arrangement is also very understandable.

However, taking Alonso and arranging two defensive midfielders Hamann and Biscayne to start together,
This makes people frown.

If the two defensive midfielders can pinch Depor's core Belleron, their offense will be paralyzed by half. This arrangement seems reasonable.

The problem is that without Alonso, Liverpool's offensive organization has been weakened by more than half, can it really work?
Does the offense rely on the few daggers in the frontcourt to knock it piecemeal?

Is this going to stick to the draw from the beginning?
Depor's offense is really not good this season. He only scored one goal in the Champions League, but it was Liverpool's goal that was broken!

Moreover, their state has recovered recently, and they have been unbeaten in 6 consecutive games.Midfielder Sergio also returned from suspension.

Their biggest adjustment was replacing Tristan with Pandiani as the starting center.

In the last game, Liverpool was able to draw with them and kept Anfield from falling completely. Tristan was the biggest contributor.

With this big brother not on the field, can Liverpool really stick to the draw?

This strategy made Li Tiancheng easily think of the Chinese Football Association, and his nausea became stronger.

In addition, Uncle Mauro was injured and absent.

Li Tiancheng felt a little regretful, this uncle was really tough, and it was really enjoyable to fight against him.

The opening whistle interrupted Li Tiancheng's thoughts, forget it, the game strategy is the head coach's business, so don't worry about it.

Less than 30 seconds into the game, Garcia's through ball made Barosch almost single-handedly, but his adjustment..., directly stopped the ball to the goalkeeper, Deportivo goalkeeper Molina decisively made a direct clearance!
Li Tiancheng hammered his thigh, big brother, we are squatting in this game!

Opportunities cannot be many!

Can you restrain yourself?

The offense was the same as before, and the defense did not seem to be very reliable. The joint efforts of Harman and Biscayne barely caught Belleron.

At the beginning, the operation of Deportivo's attack system was indeed a bit sluggish.

But this time someone stepped forward to help Belleron share the pressure.

Belleron attracted attention, Sergio seized the gap and took a long shot, and the football went slightly wide of the left post!
The ball shocked Liverpool into a cold sweat.

Liverpool's good fortune doesn't stop there.

After the ball, with a helper to share the pressure, Belleron was able to get away a little bit and organize the attack. Deportivo shot consecutively and began to take the initiative.

Liverpool was beaten continuously and entered the pit mode. Depor was a little too relaxed. After being intercepted by Harman, he was not active in counter-robbing.

After receiving the pass from Harman, Biscayne broke through Victor and Sergio in a row, and calmly distributed the ball to the left.

Zhang Fei actually embroidered!
This caught the Depor players off guard and hurried back to defense.

Riise dribbled the ball and made a strong low pass to the center. Andrade tried to make a clearance in front of the fast-moving Baros, but he did touch the ball ahead of time in the small penalty area in front of the goal.

It's a pity that he failed to make a successful clearance and the ball went into his own gate!

Liverpool lead 1:0.

Most of the Riazor stadium fell into silence, enjoying the joy but suddenly entering death. This situation made the Depor fans a little confused.

Andrade was lying on the ground, unwilling to get up, but Li Tiancheng patted his chest, and let go of his heart again, well, no matter how you say it, Benitez's calculation is half done, and then it depends on what he has. No chance to play.

"It's the 14th minute of the first half. Liverpool broke the deadlock on the field with a concise and efficient counterattack. The next game will be much easier, isn't it, Ian?" Lineker smiled a little weirdly.

"Really?" Ian Rush hesitated: "Liverpool's counterattack is indeed quite sudden. Biscayne doesn't often break through with the ball, but this time he did it."

"The quality of Riise's pass is very good, and Baros is also in place. Andrade is a bit unlucky, but if he doesn't take the lead, Baros can also score."

Lineker nodded frequently: "No one expected Biscayne's sudden force. It was more like luck. No one thought that Victor and Sergio could be broken by Biscayne."

"Let's not mention the luck factor of Liverpool's lead, but as we said just now, Benitez dispatched this lineup that is obviously biased towards defense. The high probability is to get a draw in the away game. Now that Liverpool has taken the lead, Liverpool There is more room for maneuver, and you can defend with peace of mind."

I don't know if the teammates on the field are at ease or not, anyway, Li Tiancheng himself is not at ease.

After conceding the goal, Deportivo's attack became more violent, and the attack wave after wave, Liverpool had no power to fight back, and the daggers were all retracted for blocking.

It was horrible!

Li Tiancheng grabbed his thigh hard.
