Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

With the arrival of the new year, major European leagues have entered the winter break, but the Premier League has no such arrangement.

As the most successfully promoted league in the world, the cancellation of the winter break is an inevitable result of capital-driven.

However, with more competitions, this has undoubtedly greatly increased the exposure of the Premier League, but this has made it difficult for the players of major teams.

Although Chelsea has suffered frequent injuries recently, Liverpool is not much better.

Their star player Gerrard and striker core Sturridge both missed this battle due to injuries.

The frequent schedule consumes the players' physical strength, and the injury problem highlights the dilemma of sports injuries.

The lack of a winter break also gives Premier League players less personal time and doubles the pressure, which is why some giants will collapse at this stage.

Driven by capital, the Premier League is still expanding, and while achieving commercial goals, it is also consuming the value of players.

The Premier League needs to consider the rights and interests of players to balance business and player development.

In the locker room before the start of the game, Mourinho told Terry with a serious face:" Terry, you have to keep a close eye on Suarez at the back, and keep an eye on Sterling on the wing."

When mentioning Sterling, Mourinho deliberately glanced at Li Lei.

In this year's Premier League, the performance of these two young players has absolutely amazed everyone, making them the nightmare of all defenders this season.

Unlike Li Lei's explosive wing, Sterling's style is more flexible and changeable, which makes it difficult for the players defending him to keep an eye on him.

These two are the biggest threats to Liverpool's front line in this game and must be strictly guarded.

Faced with such a powerful offensive combination, Chelsea's defense must be in step and adopt tacit cooperation.

As long as there is a slight negligence, the opponent will use the gap to form a breakthrough, and the situation will become quite dangerous.

Mourinho is now looking forward to the defense line being able to effectively control Sterling and Suarez and reduce their destructive power, which is why he has the current instructions.

Today in Gao Yi's live broadcast room, the style of the barrage is a bit strange, and the continuous games have made many fans unable to help but complain

"I feel sorry for Lei Lei. This Premier League is not a place for human beings to play! This is already the 4th game recently!"

"Yes! This frequency is simply torturing the players. The league is too inhumane.!"

"No winter break, this is too commercialized. The Premier League only cares about profits, not players. It is not shameful to make money."

"The players are professional athletes, they should be able to withstand this intensity."

"But too much density will increase the risk of injury to players, which is not good for their careers."

"Come on Chelsea, we support you!"

After finishing the coach's tactical arrangement, Li Lei followed his teammates and began to line up in the player tunnel to prepare for the game.

At this time, a young black player in the Liverpool team caught Li Lei's attention. The man was tall, dark-skinned, and full of strength.

Just as Li Lei was staring at him intently, he suddenly turned his head as if he had sensed something.

The two looked at each other, and the black player threw a confident smile at Li Lei. His big white teeth were particularly eye-catching, and his face was shining with enthusiasm.

" Cheer up, don't be scared by him, we are not bad at all!" Lampard whispered behind Li Lei.

He observed the silent confrontation between the two and was worried that Li Lei would be suppressed by his opponent's momentum.

" Of course! I am the assist king of this league, he can only be left behind by me!" Li Lei said confidently

"Haha, you are right, we are the favorites to win, and we are at home, so we will definitely win!" Lampard also relaxed and said

" Go to Liverpool, I must give that guy a surprise today!"

"Come on! We can definitely defeat the strong enemy and add a New Year gift to the fans!"

"Let’s go! Go and welcome the cheers of the fans!"

On the evening of December 30th,CABV-CABV- 5 suddenly announced that it would broadcast the match between Chelsea and Liverpool live.

Although CABV-5 has the broadcasting rights for the Premier League, it has not broadcast a single Chelsea match this year.

Before the New Year's Day of 2014, it chose the focus battle between Chelsea and Liverpool. This decision makes people think deeply.

"Dude, did you see that? Channel 5 is broadcasting Chelsea's game tonight.!"

"Is this true? Channel 5 has not been broadcasting the Blues this year. Is there something wrong with this sudden change?!"

"Maybe he changed his mind after seeing Chelsea's excellent performance this year and the championship in sight."

"Do you think it’s Li Lei’s factor? You know, the World Cup is next year!"

"World Cup? What does it have to do with us? Come on!"

"How much is Li Lei worth now? It should have increased a lot!"

"Stop talking, the game is about to start!"

With Liverpool striker Coutinho kicking off, the game officially began.

The ball kept passing between Liverpool's midfielders, and whenever it was passed to Li Lei, he would press forward.

This forced Allen, who was on the opposite side, to choose to pass back, and there was no way to organize an effective attack.

Li Lei's high level of participation obviously enhanced the pressure on Chelsea's midfield. He actively ran into defense, which hindered the opponent's offense and could not be easily launched.

Seeing that Li Lei's side could not break through, Allen directly made a long pass and passed the ball to Sterling's feet.

Sterling easily caught Allen's long pass, and the ball landed steadily at his feet.

As the team's winger, Sterling's body is extremely flexible. At this moment, he used his speed advantage to break through on the wing.

David Luiz, who was originally defending Sterling, lost his position at the moment of the opponent's long pass. When he hurriedly returned to defense, Sterling had already brought the ball to the edge of the penalty area.

At this time, David Luiz had realized that he could not catch up, and could only choose to foul to prevent Sterling from breaking through.

""Tear!"

Suddenly, a tearing sound cut through the court. David Luiz grabbed Sterling's jersey and dragged him to the ground when Sterling was about to break into the penalty area.

The referee immediately blew the whistle to stop the game and immediately took out a yellow card for Luiz.

At this time, Sterling fell to the ground in pain and twisted his body left and right. He knew that if it weren't for Luiz's foul, he would have successfully broken through and entered the shooting range.

But the opponent's jersey-pulling action was too deliberate. Not giving a yellow card was simply letting the foul go. In order to get a yellow card, he had to roll on the ground a few more times.

Facing this free kick, Li Lei followed his teammates to form a human wall in the penalty area. Henderson, who was on the penalty spot, looked around the position of the human wall and decided to pass the ball directly to the back point of the penalty area.

Chelsea's players were now following Suarez and the front point in the penalty area, which gave Liverpool defender Scott the opportunity to ambush at the back point.

Scott jumped decisively and a powerful header splashed out. Chelsea goalkeeper Cech watched the ball whizzing in, but it was too late and he couldn't save the goal.

""Bang!" The ball hit the net heavily.

Li Lei and Chelsea's players showed incredible expressions. They all thought Henderson would pass the ball to his teammates in the penalty area. They never thought that Liverpool would use this free kick to break the goal.

At this time, only 6 minutes had passed.
