The Ball at Your Feet

When returning from South Korea, Zhao Yaning also received calls from friends to congratulate him. Entered the World Cup finals and can go to Germany for a round next year. Such a thing is a good thing for China.

And Zhao Yaning naturally inevitably cheered up with his friends: Pulsau will now play with Croatia. The European qualifiers are not over yet.

And this time the Asian qualifiers finally made the Koreans unable to cry: Saudi Arabia played a match-fix at their home court without a trace of face. They just lost to Uzbekistan by three goals, making Uzbekistan. With a goal difference advantage, eliminated South Korea.

The Koreans clamored angrily that this is a match-fixing to make China, Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan look good-but in the AFC, he is not covering the sky with all his hands. Treat these things as a joke.

The Koreans no longer have the ability to make a rematch after the end of the game fail?

And Zhao Yaning, who returned to the club, at this time, had to face the game against Sunderland.

As a newly promoted team, Sunderland is not a very strong team. Zhao Yaning had just returned from the national team and was still very tired. Therefore, Benitez also chose to let him sit on the bench instead of starting.

However, the progress of the game did not go smoothly.

In this game, Figo replaced Zhao Yaning in the left half while Garcia was active on the right. However, Figo can get the ball and pass it well. However, he has not yet adapted to the high-paced and fast playing style of the Premier League, and with his current explosiveness, he can't beat the speed in the Premier League. Just smashing the ball can shake the opponent, but it can't form a lot. Effective breakthrough.

And what Zhao Yaning usually does is to rely on his own breakthrough to tear open the opponent's defense line. When this is not possible, Liverpool will be in big trouble. Gerrard and Garcia's passing are not enough to seize those extremely small opportunities, which makes it difficult for Liverpool to win.

As a relegation team, Sunderland clearly knows what his mission is. They hardly launched an offense, just relying on the backcourt defense, trying hard to hold a point-they know very well that as a relegation team, it is very difficult to score a goal for Liverpool. But if they are blindly defensive, Liverpool's methods are not many-last season's Liverpool, because many games failed to win the relegation underdogs, and finally ranked third.

Obviously, their idea is still very correct. After the first half, Liverpool failed to score a goal.

"Coach, let me play." Zhao Yaning looked at the situation and couldn't help frowning. In the face of the relegation team's inability to defend the penalty area, it was the biggest problem Liverpool has encountered last season. Unexpectedly, this season, Liverpool's problems are still there.

Benitez did not act for a long time. He also hopes that the team can have a variety of different ways of matching offense, rather than putting all the tasks on Zhao Yaning alone. Although Zhao Yaning is excellent and trustworthy, if a team has a certain player's dependence, it will be very troublesome.

However, in the second half of the game, when the situation was too late to start, Benitez still had to make a change, "You replace Stephen. Don't try to force from the center, cooperate more with the side, and lean on the side. Lu’s attack opened up the situation. Mobilize your teammates and don’t do it yourself."

Look at the time, it's sixty-three minutes. Zhao Yaning nodded, but still made up his mind: just try for ten minutes, if it doesn't work, just do it yourself. The opponent has been almost slipped by Figo, and after he has played, he should be able to improve.

As soon as he appeared on the field, all the fans watching the game immediately began to clamor. At this time, Sunderland's players immediately felt uneasy.

"Liverpool has accelerated...Zhao Yaning made a quick breakthrough!"

When the commentator screamed, Zhao Yaning didn't actually choose to break through. After he got the ball, he took a sway in the direction of the penalty area, and he immediately rushed to the left. A kick passed the opponent's defense, Zhao Yaning had already seen the defense line in the restricted area come closer, if you hit it again at this time, the defense line will be messed up...

Handing the ball to Figo on the side, Zhao Yaning is about to run into the penalty area. He wants to rely on this two-to-one cooperation to get into the penalty area. However, Sunderland's guard Brian grabbed him directly and pulled him down.

"Liverpool's cooperation made a mistake, Zhao Yaning was pulled to the front of the penalty area! This was a threatening attack, but now there is no chance."

When Zhao Yaning got up, the referee had already handed out his card to Brian. Although Brian was fouled, it was not malicious, and he was not the last one on the back line, so what he got was only a yellow card.

A very clever tactical foul. However, it is only for the foul. You have to be more careful if you foul me.

Taking a look at the position of the goalkeeper, Zhao Yaning began to think about it. The ball is very close to the goal, and neither the arc nor the fallen leaves are very suitable.

Then, just cooperate.

Zhao Yaning passed the ball to Garcia, who was next to him, and Garcia immediately passed the ball. Zhao Yaning rushed forward with the ball two steps, but at this time, the opponent's wall did not spread out, but all piled up in front of Zhao Yaning, blocking all his breakthrough routes.

It seems that the ball in the Champions League final is too impressive. At this time, no one would give him a chance to break through the restricted area.

But Zhao Yaning's original intention was not to create a forbidden zone.

The forward step with his right foot was a little larger, and Zhao Yaning found a gap for himself to pass the ball. His left foot swept the ball behind his right, and he swung the ball to the other side, Sissoko who had been emptied.

Sissoko raised his foot, swayed his leg, and hit the goal directly with a heavy shot!

"Al!!! Mohamed Sissoko!! Now we can conclude that he is the most suitable signing for Liverpool! Fierce and violent long-range shots, he really has the unique DNA of Liverpool people!"

Sissoko, who scored the goal, shook his arms towards the stands, showing his muscles. He scored a goal in his second appearance, which helped him to integrate into Liverpool too much.

This goal also relieved Liverpool's hanging heart. The opponent is a relegation team, almost no offense, can score a goal, Liverpool can almost guarantee victory.

"Thanks, brother!" When Sissoko turned around, he didn't forget to pat Zhao Yaning on the shoulder. Everyone is from France, this ball also brought Sissoko and Zhao Yaning a lot closer.

And soon, Liverpool's attack came immediately. This time, Figo charged the ball from the left and Zhao Yaning accepted it. He received the ball in the ribs of the penalty area, and when he turned around, he drew a fake fax buckle, swayed the player who was up for grabs, and then sent the ball directly to the penalty area!

The moment Milito received the ball, the whistle sounded: Milito was offside.

"Zhao Yaning created two excellent opportunities immediately after playing. I have to say that Zhao Yaning is indispensable in this team."

Such praise is not exaggerated. If Liverpool is likened to a fighter, then the defense of the backcourt is the tactical and majestic body, and the defense of the midfield is the fighter's steel helmet and iron armor. And Gerrard is a powerful arm, and Zhao Yaning's technique is the sword of this tactical killing. Without Zhao Yaning, this team would not necessarily lose, but with Zhao Yaning, this team would have a terrible lethality.

In the last few minutes, Liverpool failed to score again. In this game, with a goal from Sissoko, Liverpool won a game.

After winning the league, Liverpool immediately ushered in two important matches.

One is the second round of the Champions League play-off against Shakhtar Donetsk. However, the pressure of this game is not great. Liverpool won 3-0 at the away game. As long as they do not lose four at home, they will be promoted. However, at Anfield, it is unlikely to be filled with four.

But the other game is more important. That game was the UEFA Super Cup match between Liverpool and CSKA Moscow on August 26.

As a subsidiary game of the Champions League, although the weight of this champion is not very heavy, it is a trophy anyway. Liverpool's luck is obviously good too. It is not against a major league team, but CSKA Moscow, which is far away in Russia. The strength of this team should be slightly worse, and Liverpool's chances are not small.

However, because of these two games, Liverpool's away game against Charlton in the third round and the fourth round at home against Arsenal, the time has to be changed.

This makes Liverpool a little bit regretful: After two rounds, Liverpool scored six points and scored five goals, ranking first in the league, but the **** has not yet been firmly seated, and it will be blown down. With the current situation in the Premier League, two games less, it may be bombed.

In this case, Liverpool ushered in Shakhtar Donetsk.

In this game, Zhao Yaning, Milito, Maicon, Alonso and other main players all took turns. There is no need to win the game, and their attitude is naturally not very serious.

In this game, although Liverpool played at home, they did not have any advantage. In the first half, Shakhtar Donetsk's midfielder Srner scored a free kick.

This made Liverpool's defense line very nervous in the second half. But Milito, who came off the bench, seized an opportunity in the second half. After a dexterous run into the penalty area, he received Figo's pass and stabbed the goal from close range to tie the game for Liverpool.

This also allowed the Liverpool people to enter the Champions League race very smoothly. Although Shakhtar Donetsk complained after the match, they believed that the defending champion came to play in the play-offs to bully people-but in fact, UEFA is also discussing changes to the regulations ~www.ltnovel.com~ to let the defending champions. Go directly to the Champions League match, but this time, Shakhtar Donetsk is clearly already victimized.

At this time, the Liverpool team also left Liverpool and went to Monaco. There, they will usher in the European Super Cup, if they win, this will also be their first championship trophy this season.

In this game, Liverpool had another rotation. Zhao Yaning and Morientes both got the first chance in this game-this game, for the two of them, can be regarded as a revisit.

Figo was put on the bench in this game-as a veteran, he needs more rest, it is necessary for him to rest appropriately.

One of the changes is that Maicon was replaced by Finnan. He only left Monaco this year. The fans here are not very satisfied with his transfer and leave. They have a lot of opinions about him, so Benitez chose to put him on the bench.

As soon as he walked into the stadium, Zhao Yaning suddenly heard the deafening cheers around him.

"Moreau, did you hear that?" Zhao Yaning looked back and smiled, "This is our home court!"
