The Ball at Your Feet

: 375 A chance to breathe

The ball also made the Liverpool players surround the referee, but the referee always shook his head repeatedly and refused to change his opinion. This also made the Liverpool players even more angry. The victory was finally won, but it was gone.

"This misjudgment made Liverpool's situation even more difficult. They finally got a little offensive, but they encountered such a thing."

"Chelsea are in trouble now... they have also made changes. Thiago replaced Duff. Chelsea has strengthened the midfield defense and strengthened the frontcourt. Let's see if there is any change."

Mourinho also immediately understood the problem with his players. On the one hand, he shouted to retreat, and on the other hand, he also began to make substitutions and adjustments. After all, he still can afford to let go, and his character is very decisive. Since this game is difficult to win, then just retreat.

This gave Liverpool a chance in the final stages of the game. In the 92nd minute, Rise's cross came to Zhao Yaning's feet, which gave Zhao Yaning a chance to shoot from the center, but the shot from 25 yards in front of the goal missed the goal post.

As the ball went wide, the referee finally blew the whistle at the end of the game.

"Last chance! Zhao Yaning's shot went wide! Liverpool scored a 1-1 draw away. It seems that coach Mourinho is not very happy. His team missed a lot of must-goal opportunities today. And Liverpool will certainly not be very satisfied with this result. One of their goals was misjudged as offside... But this is a focus game. Such a game must have been full of controversy. This is normal."

And at this time on the court, Zhao Yaning also got rid of his disappointment. The game did not win, which is indeed a bit regrettable. But the opponent is really strong, and in the face of such a strong enemy, it is normal to not be able to win. There is regret, but not disappointed, which is how he feels now.

Take off his team. He was looking for a substitute for this game, but Joe Cole played extremely well. But who knows, Joe Cole froze for a while and refused to exchange his jersey.

This made Zhao Yaning's face a little stiff, but at this time, Joe Cole said, "Our club has a rule that unless we win the game, we are not allowed to change the jersey."

There is even such a rule? Zhao Yaning was slightly surprised, but also thought of the reason: Chelsea is a newly promoted team after all, they need not only the team's skills and abilities, but more, fighting spirit and confidence.

Well, don't change it if you don't. Zhao Yaning smiled bitterly. In this game, he really wanted to think that Joe Cole played well and wanted to change his jersey when he admired him, but he was so rejected.

Who said that the Premier League can get a lot of star jerseys? Both of the focus games were played, but there was no jersey.

Although the reporters all blocked the coaches of both sides after the game and asked them what they thought of the game, hoping to get some strong information from them, it is clear that they could not dig out much about their news topics today.

Mourinho did not accuse Liverpool like the previous game, he just expressed his indignation at the consecutive missed opportunities of his players. As for the penalty, the coach also gave a very clear answer, "We will not talk about the referee today. I respect the referee's penalty."

Seeing him say this, Benitez has nothing to say. After all, this question is useless even if it is said, he also expressed respect for the referee and it was over.

Mourinho still has nothing to do with Liverpool after all. After all, Chelsea is now the favorite to win the championship, but Liverpool is only a mid-range team. Even if it is a fight, Mourinho will only fight with Wenger, Liverpool? There is no point in arguing with them.

And after all, the beneficiary of the misjudgment is Chelsea. If you talk more at this time, it's just getting darker.

And Benitez is not very interesting to say: Although there are indeed misjudgments, it is an indisputable fact that Chelsea is stronger. They almost missed three empty goal opportunities. In such a game, a draw is a fluke. What else do they call that they must win?

The head coaches of both sides had nothing to say about the game, which caused the reporters to lose a lot of focus topics, and the reporters were naturally extremely disappointed. But the coaches of the team don't care about these emotions. In their eyes, the reporters are really nothing.

But the other two questions raised by the reporter still allowed Benitez to say something more.

One is Gerrard's injury. Benitez directly told reporters the answer, "He was seriously injured... On Wednesday, he had an operation and a steel nail needed to be implanted. He could recover in about six weeks. We have other people available, but Liverpool will not face him. To the point where no one is available."

Having said that, the facts seem difficult to tell. Kewell, Gerrard, plus Dudek, the three main players missed, such a Liverpool, it seems that it is difficult to say very good.

The other question is difficult for Benitez to answer.

"Excuse me, it is said that Michael Owen intends to return to the Premier League because he can't play the main force in Real Madrid... What does the Liverpool club think?"

This sentence makes it difficult for Benitez to answer. I was clamoring to leave in August, and now it’s just October, and I regretted to come back in less than two months? Did he treat his return to Liverpool as his natal home?

Benitez knew Owen's embarrassment. He was not the main player in Real Madrid, and his performance was not very good. In the last round of La Coruña against Deportivo, he won the start, but was replaced just after 52 minutes, and after the game, he was scored by the media with the lowest score of 0 points.

And the national team match day is approaching. This time the England national team did not call up Irving. In addition, Rooney is now moving to Manchester United at a record value. He is also playing well at Manchester United, and it has the meaning of replacing it. This also allows Owen felt the pressure.

Therefore, he also shouted in the media that he wanted to return to play in the Premier League. It’s just interesting that he didn’t mention Liverpool’s name.

"I heard that Owen's agent is now contacting Everton. He may transfer to Everton. May I ask, what do you think of this?"

Benitez had already anticipated this question, but he still didn’t know how to answer it. “I think it’s impossible. Owen was born in Liverpool’s youth training. He understands the grievances between the two clubs. It is impossible to do something that makes fans sad."

It's just that, it's really weak.

After all, this is just an idea. Benitez knew very well that Irving would never be back. The high salary that Real Madrid gave him is something that Liverpool can't afford, and any extra words are in vain. Liverpool has now embarked on a new era.

The away 1-1 draw with Chelsea, for Liverpool, can be said to be an unexpected gift. After all, the main force can win an away victory in a focus game even with multiple injuries, which is not an extravagant thing for Liverpool. And most of the media comments are the same. Although they all think that Liverpool’s misjudgment is a pity, few people think that this is a big deal-after all, Liverpool is not the winning team.

At this time, what gave Liverpool a little respite was the arrival of the national team game day. After this period of time has passed, Cowell will be able to make a comeback. Although Gerrard's comeback will take a little longer, at least two weeks will pass.

Moreover, few people had too many tasks on this national team match day. Except for Zhao Yaning, Baroche and Rise, no one else had anything to do. Even the media don’t care much about Liverpool’s affairs, because England’s own game was against Wales at Old Trafford. This is also the first time Giggs played at Old Trafford as an away player since his debut. Therefore, he has received much more attention than Liverpool.

At this time, Zhao Yaning needs to go to Kuwait to play in the World Cup preliminaries. As long as this game can be won, there is no need to play the game against Hong Kong. The next national team game will be next February.

And it’s also a good choice to go back to China to play at this time: now the Chelsea and Liverpool match is a mess, and Zhao Yaning also thinks they are too annoying, so he happily hides in peace.

Zhao Yaning and Sun Jihe returned to China from the UK together, and then went to Kuwait with the team. As soon as he arrived in Kuwait, he learned a piece of news that made him somewhat speechless.

In order to attract fans, the Kuwaiti side formulated a "free admission" strategy. In other words, in this game, the Chinese team performed completely for free...

But this did not affect Zhao Yaning's mood. After all, the significance of this game is still very important.

In this game, Zheng Zhi was yellow card suspended, Li Datou and Zhang Yaokun partnered in defense, Sun Xiang and Wei Xin were on both sides, Liu Yufei guarded the goal; Zhao Junzhe and Sun Jihe were the double midfielders, Zhao Yaning was on the left, Shao Jiayi was on the right, and Daewoo and Hao Dapao were still serving. Double forward.

After the start of the game, the offensive and defensive rhythms of both sides were not very fast. Kuwait was more stable, and the formation did not press on as much as imagined. The Chinese team's midfield blockade is relatively good, and it is difficult for Kuwait to find opportunities in a positional battle.

And just five minutes into the game, the Chinese team got a free kick. After Shao Jiayi on the right broke through and was placed, he won a free kick for the Chinese team.

Zhao Yaning also kicked the ball into the penalty area.

With almost no effort, he threw the ball into the penalty area with one kick. Hao Da Pao headed directly and knocked the ball into the goal.

There is hardly any difficulty with such a ball.

In the game, the Chinese team also controlled the situation on the field. Throughout the first half, the Chinese team was almost always playing against Kuwait, without much trouble.

However, in the second half, the situation changed suddenly. Just one minute after the opening, Sun Xiang’s pass was interrupted, and Kuwait quickly launched a counterattack. After a breakthrough from the right, Bashar fell to the ground near the penalty zone and made a header. Zhu Ma Jin shot and scored, and Kuwait tied with 1-1.

Kuwait rarely played on the right in the first half, but continued to exert force on this side in the second half, and it immediately worked. It seems that this is a tactical arrangement. This Juma also just came off the bench in the second half, and his first shot brought the team a goal.

After scoring the goal, Kuwait's morale boosted, and after they scored a goal, they also started crazy celebrations.

But at this time, the Chinese team also made adjustments. Li Yi replaced Hao Dapao, and Yan Song replaced Shao Jiayi~www.ltnovel.com~ Zhou Haibo replaced Sun Jihe.

Soon, Zhao Yaning's long-range shot to find a chance was stopped by the Kuwait goalkeeper. From then on, the Chinese team also began to counterattack. Soon after Yan Song made a pass from the right, Li Yi leaned on his opponent in the penalty area and made it back. This time, Zhao Yaning did not make any more mistakes. He shot the ball directly into the goal.

The 2-1 score allowed the Chinese team to continue to maintain its lead. Then, in the 60th minute, Yan Song missed the goal after receiving a cross from Zhao Junzhe. In the 65th minute, Zhao Yaning crossed the penalty area diagonally from the left, and Li Yi headed the ball from the center of the penalty area. Zhou Haibo struggled to head the ball, but in the end it came out. Daewoo caught up with the ball and scored the goal!

The score of 3-1 also made the Kuwait team lose the idea of ​​struggle. The game ended in a 3-1 game. The Chinese team won five games and won five games. They were out of the group one round ahead of schedule.

And because the last game was Hong Kong, China, it didn't matter how he played. In the locker room, Zhao Yaning also directly suggested that he would not come back for the last game.

"At that time, I looked at the schedule. Monaco played away, and the game was played against Arsenal at home. The game was too tight and I didn't have much energy to run back and forth. For that game, I would like to ask you big guys. Sun Ge I don’t think there is much time, right? Manchester City’s schedule is not easy. Chelsea will be the next game, right?"

Sun Jihe nodded.

"Play well, Chelsea are really strong." Zhao Yaning nodded, "It's not the same when we have money. We are far from Liverpool now."

After a few words with him, Zhao Yaning made arrangements to return to England. But on the way back, Zhao Yaning got a new message.

Real Madrid coach has changed again.
