The Ball at Your Feet

: 392 Summary after the Match

Gerrard watched the football flying into the goal, and after a long time he couldn't believe that he actually scored such a goal.

The ball sent by Zhao Yaning was obviously twisted. The arc carried by the ball was very large. After Milito came out, it did not dissolve the power of Zhao Yaning's curveball. This is why when the ball falls in front of Gerrard, it also spins a lot. When Gerrard takes a shot, he is still wondering whether his foot will directly fly into the stands.

But when the ball flew into the goal, he couldn't help being surprised.

This is the will of God, and there is no other possibility. God wants Liverpool to win, and our qualification is God's will.

He raised his hands and pointed to the sky. At this time, all he could do was thank God.

On the edge of the court, the moment Gerrard shot the ball into the net, Anfield erupted with an unprecedented noise. The security guard on the sidelines suddenly hugged Benitez and lifted him up with a big laugh. This also surprised Benitez, who has always paid attention to demeanor and appearance. But when he raised his head and looked at the red flag fluttering all over the sky, he also showed a rare smile and waved his hand gently toward the stands.

This action also made the fans even more joyous. Some coaches are accustomed to using grand celebrations to please the fans, but there are also coaches who never celebrate. But such people are even more exciting when they show a celebratory attitude.

In four minutes, Liverpool advanced to the knockout round. Just a little while ago, they almost passed the UEFA Champions League knockout qualification.

The Olympiacos players are in a different mood. They and the Champions League knockouts, recently, are only four minutes behind.

This is indeed a miracle for Liverpool. It is indeed something to be celebrated.

"Children, you played so beautifully in this game." Another commentator, Andy Gray, also called out the moment he saw Liverpool's goal. And his shout made Martin Taylor laugh, "It's too shameful, what are you celebrating! You are Everton's famous star, it is not your turn to celebrate here!"

"I just witnessed an impossible task. Why are you unhappy?" Andy Gray said, "As Liverpool also entered the Champions League knockout rounds, all four teams in England entered the Champions League knockout rounds. Reason, can we celebrate?"

He found himself a good reason. In the Premier League this year, all four teams have reached the knockout stage, which is the only one among the five major leagues. In this year, La Coruña and Valencia were eliminated in La Liga, Rome in Serie A was eliminated, Paris in Ligue 1 was eliminated, and although the Bundesliga were not eliminated, they only had three places in total, and The top three teams are incomparable after all.

"After this game, Liverpool's performance problems have not only been eased, but also financial problems have also been eased. We can expect that they will have a greater improvement in the following games." Martin Taylor said. "Liverpool's next game is Everton, right?"

"Yes, two days later, Liverpool challenged Everton away." Andy Gray said, "Merseyside Derby, the 200th game in history."

"What do you think the results will be?" Martin Taylor asked.

"I hope Everton will win." Andy Gray said without hesitation, "but seeing Liverpool like this, in such a state, I really don't have much confidence."

Yes, such a Liverpool, such a state, no matter how strong the team is, never want to challenge them!

The final round of the Champions League relied on a goal difference to qualify, which also allowed Liverpool to catch up with the Champions League knockout match at the last moment.

This is of great significance to Liverpool. For Zhao Yaning, qualifying for the knockouts gave him greater capital to compete for the Golden Globe Award. For Gerrard, with the funds for the Champions League knockouts, he does not have to leave for the time being. As far as Liverpool is concerned, this timely capital injection and performance improvement has enabled Liverpool not only to have money to sign in, but also to gain a good reputation.

And after this game, the list of the Champions League top sixteen has also come out. The four teams in England, the three teams in Germany, the top three in Serie A, Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, plus Lyon and Monaco in Ligue 1, the five major leagues have divided up 14 from the top 16 in Europe. Places.

The remaining two teams are Portuguese Super League champions Porto and Eredivisie champion Eindhoven. These sixteen teams will start to compete for the championship in the second half of the season.

Compared with such an important game, the 17th round of the Premier League, the game against Everton is also not important. Although it was a derby game, because the Champions League had just finished on December 9th and the league will be played on December 11th, the schedule was too tight. Liverpool simply gave up on this game.

And this time, even Carragher, who emphasizes Liverpool’s tradition most among the team, did not make any objections-firstly because he himself is an Everton fan, and secondly because the team is up and down after this game. , I was too tired, and I suddenly relaxed too much, unable to play a league game.

Therefore, although it was the commemorative 200th Merseyside Derby match, in this match, Liverpool was directly sent to Biscayne, Dior and Nunez. Then, Smicer and Riise were placed on the field as a bilateral. From the beginning of the game, they put on a defensive look.

With this approach, the fans who had just cheered for Benitez in the last game were screaming at once again-playing this hand in such an important derby game is just forcing the fans to scold you. .

But Benitez ignored those. What he considers is more of the league's points. Anyway, there is no hope for the first and the second, and the third and the fourth are Manchester United and Liverpool. Whoever is in front and behind will have to play in the Champions League play-offs. The league concessions for the Champions League game has become Benitez. The rational judgment is confirmed.

And especially this kind of derby. The opponent itself is not weak, and well prepared, it must be extremely difficult to nibble down. Why bother with such a game? Besides, injured, how to play in the second half of the season?

Sure enough, in the last game, Liverpool lost 0-2 away to Everton. This result made the fans curse: This is the first time Liverpool have lost to Everton in five years.

"I think I didn't make any mistakes in predicting the strength of Liverpool." In this regard, Andy Gray could only helplessly laugh at himself, "but I really underestimated Benitez's courage. If it weren't for just relying on just now. Leading the team into the Champions League, with this game, he will be expelled from Liverpool..."

But Benitez does not care about this set, for him, the state of the team is the most important thing.

After this game, there was another thing that came to Zhao Yaning.

The European Golden Boy Award selected by the Turin Sports News came to an end, and Zhao Yaning was elected with unsurprisingly high votes.

This time the candidates are mainly Zhao Yaning, Rooney, Ronaldinho, Atletico Madrid striker Torres, Inter Milan striker Martins and Anderlecht's midfielder Kompany.

Among them, Martins, Torres, and Kompany were originally made up. Although their performance is good, they are still far from being the best in Europe.

And Zhao Yaning, Rooney and Ronaldinho are the main candidates. Among the three, Ronaldinho had the lowest chance of winning. His main reliance is to play in giants, while still reaching the European Cup finals. Last season, Rooney and Zhao Yaning were not in the giants, and the attention was naturally not as high as him. And this season, after Zhao Yaning and Rooney moved to Liverpool and Manchester United, they all won the best honors in the team again and again. Against each other, his little honor is not surprising.

Compared with Rooney, Zhao Yaning has now overwhelmed Rooney in hard honors. Liverpool now leads Manchester United in league points. What is even more rare is that Zhao Yaning has changed to the shooter position this season and played extremely well. Now that he ranks among the top scorers in the scorer list is enough to make Rooney feel inferior.

And Rooney has just offended the Spanish media because of his dirty moves in the recent game against Spain. Although the British media thinks this is nothing, but in the eyes of the Spaniards, this is a serious sin. At least, both "Marca" and "Aspen" gave Rooney a zero.

It is precisely because of this all-round victory that Zhao Yaning won the award without any suspense in this selection.

And when this award was obtained, Zhang Yuan also gave Zhao Yaning the Asian Footballer's award to him. In this way, he also counted the gains against Rivaldo in the game against Olympiacos and the game against Monaco. During the exchange with Yaya Toure, Zhao Yaning had four cards at once.

The card name obtained by exchanging jerseys with Rivaldo is called'tile knife', and its function is long-range shooting ability +2. This one was originally Zhao Yaning's most proficient ability, but it hasn't been improved~www.ltnovel.com~ I can't figure it out, but now that I got this card, I might have some insights.

The European Golden Boy Award brought a card called'Shrek' with aggressiveness +2. Zhao Yaning's aggressiveness has always been weak, and he didn't have the time to think about whose card it was, so he laughed at it. .

And the card that Asian Footballer gave him is a "three lungs" with physical strength +3. This card is supposed to be the most useful, but Zhao Yaning's position is the front midfielder, which is not a position that needs to fight and run. This It really doesn't make much difference whether the ability is 17 or 20.

But since there is, then keep it. Zhao Yaning now also realizes the importance of physical strength. There is no winter break in the Premier League, and the game will only get more and more intense. In the following days, adequate physical fitness is extremely important.

As for Yaya Touré’s card, it’s a “two ya”. It’s normal for the work input to be +1. +1. He played too badly in that game... This card also made Zhao Yaning a little bit special. Malicious conjecture: Is Kolo Toure's card called Da Ya?

In the remaining days of December, the third round of the make-up against Portsmouth, then 18 rounds against Newcastle, 19 rounds against West Bromwich Albion, 20 rounds against Southampton, and so on until the 21st round. When the first day of the month was against Chelsea, it was basically the day when the European Golden Globes came out.

In this passage, there can be no more problems with my performance. If you want to get a good ranking in the Golden Globes, you have to win as much as you can in these games.

And at this time, it was chasing points, and in the second half of the season, when the game became tense, Liverpool could also take care of both sides.

The most severe schedule has just begun.
