Starting with Milan as a central defender

Chapter 237 Leave no trace behind!
"At the end of the first half, the score on the field is temporarily 2-0, with Liverpool leading."

"It can be seen from the game that Tottenham has big and small problems on both ends of the offense and defense. It is inconspicuous when facing weak teams, but in a strong matchup."

Qin Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought while walking.

Pochettino's coaching time was too short and he failed to fully integrate his tactical concepts into the team, and there were also certain problems with the matching of players.

As a result, the midfield is too weak. Liverpool only needs to survive the first wave of pressing, and then Coutinho, Henderson and others can attack the midfield and quickly destroy the opponent's formation, thereby forming a numerical advantage.

not far away.

Lori kept mumbling.

"I told you earlier that the frontcourt must actively return to defense."

“The midfielder’s tackling wasn’t strong enough either.”

"There are always missing people in the backcourt."

"I'm just a goalkeeper, what can I do?"

The Tottenham players ignored him and walked back on their own.

Away locker room.

Qin Yun looked at the bathhouse-like decoration around him and couldn't help complaining: "The boss of Tottenham is quite stingy."

Sterling subconsciously echoed: "Our boss"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sturridge, "That's right, completely inferior to Mr. Henry!"

Sterling reacted and smiled sarcastically.

Liverpool's boss is not much better. The club's transfer funds are basically deducted from net income, and they rarely take the initiative to increase investment.

If Liverpool hadn't sold Suarez last season, the league's second-place bonus and broadcast share wouldn't have been enough to sign Qin Yun.

Rogers clapped his hands to attract the players' attention and said in a deep voice.

"The first half of the game was good, and then we can slow down the tempo and increase the ball possession rate."

"Tottenham's defense adopts a parallel position, which is too flat and lacks depth, so the midfielder can frequently pass long balls to find gaps in the defense's ribs."

"Use the speed to pull and actively seek to get one-on-one with Tottenham defenders"

Home team locker room.

"The pressure in the first half was not strong enough, allowing the opponent to play the ball easily. You have to use what you learned in training to control the rhythm and space of the game."

"Don't turn yourself into an independent individual. Pay more attention to the position of your teammates and form an orderly and organized siege."

"Liverpool is only two goals ahead. We have a chance to equalize or even overtake, but it all depends on your attitude!

Pochettino drew a simple pattern on the tactical board and reviewed it in a calm tone.

"Good evening, viewers!
"The live broadcast for you now is the third round of the 2014-15 Premier League season!"

"The second half between Spurs and Liverpool."

"I believe that after adjustments in the midfield, the game will be more exciting!"

With the whistle of the referee.

The second half of the game begins.

After Liverpool kicked off, they were immediately pressed hard by Tottenham.

Obviously Pochettino's speech played a certain role, but it was more about the players' sense of autonomy. No one wanted to lose the game embarrassingly at home in front of tens of thousands of fans.

"Tottenham did a better job of player coordination. While pressing, everyone also blocked the surrounding passing routes."

"Training through competition is the fastest way to grow!"

"It's becoming more and more difficult for Liverpool to keep the ball. It depends on who reveals the flaw first."

The 51th minute of the game.

Emre Can received a cross pass from his teammate. His dribbling level is poor, so he will basically complete the ball as soon as possible.

Snapped!
The football crashed into Tottenham's rib area.

Under the interference of Dembele, Coutinho made a mistake in stopping the ball and was intercepted by Shazli from the side.

"A very fierce confrontation!"

"After Dembélé came on, Tottenham's midfield intensity increased significantly!"

"Tottenham's counterattack!"

Shazli looked up and quickly made a long pass.

Eriksen, who completed a cross-running move with Lamela, was temporarily unmarked on the right wing and easily unloaded the ball in front of him.

The Danish footballer's brain is racing.

Liverpool's strong defensive side.

Shazli faced off against Henderson, and Harry Kane faced off against Kolo Toure. Gerrard's positioning could not interfere with him immediately.

So first control the rhythm and continue to take two steps forward.

God's perspective.

Liverpool players quickly retreated, players crossed over, and the covering space overlapped, resulting in a reduction in the defensive area.

Eriksen took the initiative to dribble the ball to the left and pull it.

His superb understanding of space and time allowed him to become the core of Tottenham's midfield at the age of 22.

Two years ago, Tottenham used the money from the sale of Bale to sign seven new players, nicknamed "Seven Swordsman", and Eriksen was the first.

His technical style is similar to Coutinho's, requiring space and bodyguards.

Without interference, his passing level is very high, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best in the five major leagues.

With Spurs players swarming away, he had plenty of space in the midfield to get the ball out.

The positions of Kolo Toure and Henderson are getting closer and closer. They adopt front and back positions, making it difficult for the opponent to penetrate the defense with one pass.

at this time.

Eriksen passed the ball in the opposite direction.

The power, timing, and accuracy are all impeccable.

Snapped!
The football drew a beautiful arc, passing between Kolo Toure and Henderson, and the two intercepted it with all their strength, but there was nothing they could do.

There were gasps of exclamation at White Hart Lane.

"A stunning pass!"

"Destroyed Liverpool's defensive formation and accurately found his teammate on the left!"

Shazli made several stops and crossed diagonally into the penalty area.

He is also one of the Seven Swords. He is an all-around player, that is, he does not have any outstanding characteristics.

Just as he was about to pass the ball, someone stood in front of him.

Qin Yun was seen placing his hands behind his back, slowly lowering his body, and observing his opponent's center of gravity with his eyes.

A textbook defensive stance in the penalty area!

In the spotlight.

Shazli suddenly moved the ball to the outside and then swept it towards the middle.

Snapped!
The football stopped quietly at the arch of Liverpool No. 6's foot.

"This"

"What a fantastic steal!"

"Accurately predict Shazli's true intentions through his body tendencies and movements!"

"And you also need to know the situation in the blind area of ​​the field of vision. It looks like Shazley took the initiative to pass the ball!"

"His defensive skills are so sophisticated!"

Harry Kane hurriedly stretched his feet to grab the ball.

suddenly!
Qin Yun pulled the ball back with his left foot and pushed it forward.

The "V" reflection suddenly appeared under the spotlight.

There was an uproar!

grace!

Chic!

The dance-like movements not only avoided Kane's steal, but also passed Shazli's counterattack cleanly.

Liverpool's defensive strong side became Tottenham's weak defensive side, creating a large empty area.

The counterattack starts now!
Qin Yun rushed forward with the ball.

Around him, the Liverpool players were like a pack of wolves, following their leader to launch a fierce attack on their opponents.

Qin Yun quickly raised his head and remembered the positions of everyone in front of him.

In his mind, the figure of red and black No. 22 appeared.

Kaka!

Liverpool No. 6 started to speed instantly.

It's not Bell's unreasonable rawness, but a perfect blend of long strides and just the right rhythm.

"The silver saddle shines on the white horse, like a shooting star!"

"Incredible speed!"

"The beauty of the movement is fully revealed!"

"Who says tall players can't dribble the ball at high speed?"

Near the midline.

Kyle Walker is here!

A man who even "supercar" Mbappe can't use his speed to break through!
He has never been afraid of anyone in terms of speed. His thigh muscles bulged and he turned around to follow.

High speed!
Kyle Walker used all his strength to finally lead by less than half a length and decisively made a steal.

Snapped!
Qin Yun reacted faster and touched the ball with lightning speed.

Leaving gracefully.

Kyle Walker fell to the ground in despair, the expression on his face frozen.

Such a subtle line change.
"Huh!"

"When the opponent thinks they can steal the football, they can complete the change of direction through quick fine-tuning."

"Like an assassin who never leaves a trail!"

"Face the defense!"

Qin Yun's speed with the ball increased instead of decreasing.

The long black hair was flying, and crystal clear beads of sweat were shed.

At White Hart Lane, the only sound left was the sound of the wind.

The Liverpool pack pushed forward crazily and reached the outside of the penalty area in the blink of an eye.

Sturridge and Sterling were separated on the wings, tearing out the space in the middle.Coutinho ran towards the ribs, ready to receive the ball.

With only three men left in Tottenham's defense, they were trembling and confused.

How to prevent it?
It was Lori who reacted in time and urged his teammates anxiously. He didn't want to try that powerful artillery.

Vertonghen subconsciously grabbed the ball, leaving a small gap on the side.

Qin Yun's ankle shook slightly and he passed the ball at the perfect time.

Snapped!
The football rolled away.

Vertonghen also wanted to turn and counterattack, but there was another crisp sound, and Coutinho pushed the ball to the center.

the center of the screen.

Liverpool No. 6 tilted his body slightly towards the right side of the goal.

Kick off.

The movements are natural and composed!
boom!
The dull sound echoed in White Hart Lane, and Tottenham fans were enveloped in deep despair.

Lori's judgment of the ball path is very accurate.

But it didn't work!
This kick was so accurate that the football rubbed the post and entered the goal, causing waves of white.

0:3! ! !

"The ball is scored again!"

"Light and elegant pull ball!"

"Unparalleled domineering attack!"

"Calm down the thrust!"

"Qin Yun scored a goal that is like a 'work of art'!"

Zhan Jun explained passionately.

As a Liverpool fan, he watched with excitement.

If this momentum continues, the league championship is not hopeless.

Studio.

【Awesome! 】
-
【Counterattack across the entire football field! 】
-
[It consumes too much physical energy and can only be used a few times in one game. 】
-
【That's enough! 】
-
[Liverpool’s counterattack looks so exciting, everyone spares no effort to rush forward! 】
-
[If the Jays were younger, then all Liverpool midfielders would be "physical freaks"! 】
-
[No wonder "No reversal, no Red Army", it turns out that Liverpool is used to exerting strength in the second half of the game. 】

side of the field.

Pochettino rubbed his brow.

The tactics laid out before the game had been shattered, and he had no idea how to adjust.

The other side.

"Jose and Alberto take the time to warm up. We need to strengthen our defense."

"Victory is at hand!"

Rogers pumped his fist excitedly and shouted toward the bench.

On the green field.

Qin Yun celebrated with a sliding tackle passionately, and his teammates who followed him pinned him down.

"Qin, how was my pass?"

"It's a great goal!"

“Please have dinner tonight”

Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same. The Tottenham players' eyes were dull and they seemed to be stunned.

Lori looked up at the stars and kept mumbling.

"What can I do as a goalkeeper?"

"Pochettino used the remaining substitutions, Townsend replaced Eriksen, and Kaboul replaced Holbit."

"Tottenham have changed to three central defenders and must continue to attack"

"Rogers also made adjustments, Enrique replaced Sterling and Joe Allen replaced Lucas!"

The mid-race circle reopens.

Tottenham refused to give up and attacked like crazy, as if they were the dominant side.

As for scoring on a counterattack?
No matter whether the game is won or lost, the most important thing is to show the momentum.

Lamela received the ball from the wing, turned around and rushed towards the penalty area.

Liverpool's physical advantage was revealed at this moment. Emre Can easily kept up with the opponent's rhythm and seized the opportunity when the football was far away from the opponent to complete the steal.

There are endless sighs at White Hart Lane.

"Liverpool did not take advantage of the situation to counterattack, but instead passed the ball in the midfield and back."

"The effect is surprisingly good!"

"After 10 minutes of fierce fighting, Tottenham players were no longer able to carry out high-intensity frontcourt pressing."

"Even the players who have just been replaced cannot form a dense pressing network with their teammates."

The football was moved to the center, and Liverpool no longer had a "funnel" position, but became two triangles overlapping front and back.

This formation can create more contact points and is conducive to controlling the ball.

Qin Yun was at the end of the formation.

He is very tired!

As Liverpool advanced into midfield,

Gerrard suddenly moved forward and sent a long pass from the most familiar position.

The football landed precisely in the rib area.

Coutinho stopped the ball with his chest, lifted his foot and passed it to the left wing.

The three-center-back system is too weak to protect the two wings.
Joe Allen stepped in and sent a cross near the baseline as if he was in no one's land.

The football hit Vertonghen's knee and hit the goal.

White Hart Lane is filled with the smell of blood.

It's a massacre!

"Own goals!"

"0:4!"

“Liverpool’s midfield is very strong!
"Henderson's running between the two penalty areas greatly tore apart Tottenham's line. His timely forward penetration and connection can always create space for Liverpool's offense!"

"Gerrard's pass is extremely accurate and finds the opponent's weak rib space."

"Coutinho's clever pass shows the spirituality of Brazilian players!"

"Although Joe Allen's handling was not very good in the end, his opponent gave him a big gift."

"There is no suspense in this game!"

The game restarts.

Tottenham players organized scattered attacks, but they were unable to pose any threat at all.

Qin Yun stood in the backcourt, his jersey almost drying out.

The last minute of stoppage time.

Vertonghen sent a long pass from midfield.

Harry Kane didn't believe in fate and jumped up with all his strength.

Qin Yun only exerted some interference
The football flew over the crossbar.

Beep-beep!

At the same time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

"Congratulations Liverpool!"

"Fifty years ago today, Liverpool climbed to the top of the table after beating Tottenham 50-3 and eventually won the title."

"Time flies. On this day of coincidence, Liverpool led by Qin Yun once again got three points from Tottenham and firmly held their destiny in their own hands."

White Hart Lane Stadium.

Tottenham fans vented their dissatisfaction with all kinds of dirty words.

I thought that the two consecutive wins at the beginning of the season was the beginning of reaching the top, but who knew.
Liverpool fans packed up their things and left with laughter, and it was not in vain that they drove four hours to watch the game.

Cool!
Every goal today is unique and memorable.

Grandstand corner.

An old man with silver hair and elegant demeanor lowered the brim of his peaked cap and sighed.

On the green field.

The two teams finished the post-match handshake session.

"Qin, can I exchange jerseys with you?"

Harry Kane looked nervous, afraid of rejection.

"Of course. No problem."

"By the way, I'll add my contact information later."

Qin Yun took off his jersey and handed it over, smiling.

He thought that if he went to Real Madrid with Hazard in the future, he would have both backcourt and midfielder, but still lack a forward.

It seems good to bring Kane over, but this thing is probably very embarrassing. If he was willing to leave Tottenham, he would have won the championship long ago.

"well"

Harry Kane took over the jersey with joy, and the expression on his face remained unchanged. After all, you can't smile when you lose the game.

Post-match press conference.

"Liverpool performed well today, they are a good team and we need to learn from it."

"It's hard to say positive things when you lose, but I hope the fans can try to build confidence. Tottenham are a growing team and the players need support."

"Qin? He is a strong player who can stand up at the most critical moments. This is very important. He can keep players confident."

"I hope the lads at Tottenham can be that too."

Pochettino gathered his emotions and faced reporters.

The other side.

"I'm very happy with the performance of the players and hope they can continue."

"Champions League grouping?"

"As long as you try your best, even if you lose the game, you will be forgiven."

The smile on Rogers' face faded, replaced by sadness.

When the international break ends, the Champions League will begin. Can Liverpool qualify?

He really has no bottom in his heart.
