The sweeping army of the greenery

Chapter 73

As a result, the miracle did not happen, the ball did not pass through the crowd at all, and was directly blocked. Olympiacos took advantage of the situation and hit a wave of counterattacks.

It was Rivaldo again.

Riise failed to get back in time, Liverpool was empty on the left, Rivaldo drove straight in, broke through Hamann, and lobbed past Dudek who was attacking. Fortunately, Hyypia cleared the ball in the small penalty area.

Li Tiancheng shook his head as he watched. Dudek was too reckless. There was no need to be so dangerous. Carragher was already helping to defend Harman, but Dudek blocked his footsteps. This buddy planned to run more to keep warm body?
This is too uncomfortable, the defensive end can be broken as soon as it is poked, how can this make people feel relieved to attack?

But there is no way, Olympiacos is the weakest opponent in the group, failure?This is absolutely unacceptable!

Still want to get out?
Can only continue to attack.

Li Tiancheng and Garcia approached each other, catching up Barosh to his favorite striker, leaving the flanks to Riise and Josemi, and continued the onslaught!

Combining the side and the middle will not work.

Cisse and Baroche were overwhelmed.

Long shot, no.

There are densely packed inside and outside the penalty area, and long-range shots are more like luck, gambling on the world wave.

The only thing that can be explored is that the opponent's defense line is a bit flat, and long-range shooting is not good, then...

Li Tiancheng dived in with the ball, leaned to the right, and flicked the ball to the right with the back of his right foot. The guy moved, and quickly switched to smashing the ball with the inside of his right foot - flicking the cow's tail.

Shaking open the gap, Li Tiancheng pushed in, and then there was no more, and was pushed down by the guy who was helping to defend.

Yellow cards plus free kicks are not discussed.

Li Tiancheng ran up and kicked, this time it was even worse, the football was directly blocked by the jumping wall.

I said why Garcia and Riise's free kick quality is so poor. The average height of the wall is 1.9 meters. In addition to their jumping, it is more difficult to bypass them than usual.

Li Tiancheng covered his face with his hands, wiped his mouth, and looked at Carragher who was applauding and waving his arms: Come again, I still don't believe it!

At this time, Benitez started the substitution again, and Finnan replaced Cisse.

What is this operation?
Li Tiancheng watched Finnan coming straight towards him, "concentrate on attacking the restricted area", this was Benitez's instruction.

Looking towards the sidelines, although he couldn't hear what Benitez shouted, he finally saw him nodding.

That's it!
Li Tiancheng got out of position and started to wander around inside and outside the restricted area.

"Benitez replaced Cisse with Finnan, which is really surprising. When he was in urgent need of attack, he replaced the striker." Lineker was a little puzzled.

"Let's see how Liverpool are going to play. This is, is Finnan actually playing at right-back? Behind Josemi?"

"Oh, this is to fully release the offensive power, and at the same time add an insurance. Josemi is strong offensively and weak defensively, let him attack fully. Finnan is stronger defensively, and his assists are not bad."

"In this way, Barosh is at the front, and Li is lying in ambush behind him, focusing on the assault!"

"Benitez's substitution adjustment was really unexpected. Li was pushed to the position of the trailing forward!"

"Li's breakthrough ability is of course very strong, but Olympiacos has formed a forest with muscles. Will Li's small body not be enough?"

Li Tiancheng doesn't intend to stick to his position, and Benitez doesn't like to see his players only move in a small area.

Now with this posture, it is impossible to form more hits and fewer hits in the frontcourt, so you can only use your personal ability to make a surprise attack, and the surprise attack cannot be forced.

No matter how strict they are on defense, they still have a defensive center of gravity, which means that there are relatively weak defenses.Li Tiancheng had to find and make good use of this place.

Of course, not only himself, but also a ready-made Garcia.

Brother, let's take turns!
Thus, Li Tiancheng and Garcia started to attack in turn.

Almost succeeded in breaking through the Olympiacos defense, but unfortunately only two free kicks were changed.

The previous time was still higher, but the last time it finally hit the goal frame. The speed of the ball was too slow, and the goalkeeper hugged him directly.

At this time, Benitez made another substitution adjustment, and Kewell replaced Baros on the field.

"Liverpool has made adjustments again. Benitez is going to break through to the end. During this period, especially after Lee came on the field, the Olympiacos defense line is indeed a bit chaotic, but now Liverpool has no Zhengyin striker on the field. Is it too extreme?" Lineker questioned.

"Now it's the 72nd minute. Liverpool don't have much time to continue trying. They must find a practical plan of action. I hope their bold adjustments will have an effect."

Lineker is not the only one who has doubts about this. Many people are puzzled, how to play without a forward. In this case, can Kewell stand firm in the penalty area?
Different from people's doubts, Li Tiancheng felt like a fish in water. He connected with Kewell and Garcia and rushed to the penalty area. It is a group of people who can play small cooperation.

The difficulty of Olympiacos defense is more than doubled!

It is inevitable that the defensive focus will shift to the three of them. Kewell and Garcia are better. Li Tiancheng can successfully pass the ball to the far end in the encirclement. It is Josemi who catches the ball, and his shooting skills are a bit poor. , otherwise Liverpool would have equalized the score.

Continuing to attack, the front of the penalty area responded to Kewell, Li Tiancheng received the pass with his back, and should have returned the pass to play a two-for-two with Kewell, but suddenly decided to come by himself, directly kicked the ball with his heel, and pierced his crotch Venetidis, who was standing behind him, turned around and rushed towards the penalty area at the same time.

Venettidis was very helpless, and pulled Li Tiancheng down. There was no way, his turning speed could not keep up. With this kid's ability, letting him enter the penalty area and hold the ball was almost equivalent to being scored!
Venettidis received a topaz card, two yellows turned into one red, and went straight off!

Free kick at the top of the penalty area.

"Oh, oh, Benitez's adjustments still worked. After receiving Kewell's pass, Li's clever heel and turn made Venettidis have to foul, accumulating two yellow cards and being sent off." Lineker breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now it's the 78th minute. Liverpool will play 11 against 10 for a period of time. They must take advantage of this advantage. Now let's see how this free kick is punished. After Lee came on the field, Liverpool's free kick quality is indeed higher, but still not good. Can score."

"It's still Li who takes the penalty. No one comes to fight him. It's just that the distance is too close. This arc is not easy to kick!"

Li Tiancheng took a breath, retreated and retreated, made a long run-up, shot vigorously and turned horizontally.

The football was pushed to the left side of the penalty area, Riise followed up and volleyed vigorously!

"when!"

Olympiacos goalkeeper Katyanakis didn't respond at all, but the football hit the outside of the post hard and bounced off the field!
Riise looked at the goal with his hips akimbo, and all the Liverpool players were extremely regretful. Even Li Tiancheng couldn't help squatting down with his head in his arms.

Olympiacos was of course the opposite, high fives and Venettidis bouncing around in the tunnel. His accumulative red cards were worth it.
