The Ball at Your Feet

Zhao Yaning scored twice and brought this game to an end. (m) Chelsea is not a very good offensive team. After falling behind again this time, none of them can stand up. Although Drogba worked very hard, he was not a full-time shooter after all, and his lack of technology made it difficult for him to score goals in a single change.

Chelsea's weak offensive allowed Liverpool to win. After the Community Shield game, Liverpool won another championship trophy.

"Liverpool is now the strongest team in the Premier League!"

"Liverpool Echo" shouted such words. Last season, the Premier League was already a competition between Liverpool and Chelsea. This season, Chelsea showed such a big regression and lost so badly in the first game. Naturally, it made the media who hated Chelsea very happy. Up.

"Money can't buy honor and hard work. Chelsea has already begun to go downhill now. Let us see what their future will look like."

There are many such words. After all, Chelsea have been too rich these past two years, and there are too many people who are not used to them. Now they showed a little bit of fatigue, and they were immediately bitten by someone.

"It's just a community shield." During the interview, the Chelsea players didn't care too much. "It's just a friendly match. If you lose earlier, you can see your own problems earlier."

Zhao Yaning ignored their bluntness, and if they won, they would definitely not say so.

Moreover, at this time, Zhao Yaning did not have the time to deal with them. Compared with last season, Chelsea is weak, but Liverpool is not much stronger. The league is not always a game of victory. Chelsea is weak, and the two teams Manchester United and Arsenal are eyeing each other. Liverpool is still far away from winning.

And something very unexpected really happened. In the opening game of the new season, Liverpool's first game, when facing the newly promoted Sheffield United, Liverpool almost capsized in the gutter.

In this match, Zhao Yaning was still trying to activate his teammates because he was facing the underdogs. However, the state of his teammates was compared with the Community Shield game against Chelsea a few days ago. , It's just a different look. No matter how hard Zhao Yaning worked, they just couldn't run hard. This kind of absence made it possible for Liverpool to maintain a 0-0 draw until the end of the game.

"I said guys, can't you run harder?" Zhao Yaning couldn't help complaining in the locker room. "We couldn't win the first game of the new season. We are the defending champions, and we tied the newly promoted horses. , Is it glorious? When I played Chelsea two days ago, I was very strong. How can I play Sheffield United instead of playing? Is Sheffield United better than Chelsea?"

The teammates lowered their heads. Zhao Yaning ran very hard in the game. They all saw it, but no one could keep up with the rhythm, which made them a little ashamed. */m//*

"Joey, don't get angry first, this kind of thing is normal." Benitez still said, "After all, the World Cup has just passed, and the influence of FA syndrome is still there. Just after the big game, the international team is more Tired, strong teams will not play well."

"How many internationals are there in our team?"

"The same will be tired, FA syndrome. On the one hand, it is the fatigue caused by the unsuitability of the competition in foreign countries during the competition. On the other hand, it is also because of the short rest period during the holiday and less restorative physical training. The physical strength of the players It's not caused by it. Everyone's training time has been shortened, and the impact is widespread."

Zhao Yaning couldn't say anything more about this. He doesn't feel tired because he has a system, but he can't ask his teammates not to feel tired.

"Then give me the ball as much as possible, I'll figure out a way." Zhao Yaning opened his mouth.

"I think the same way. I will design a more suitable tactic for you to better play your role. You may run more and get tired, but this is also for the good of the team..."

"You just need to arrange your tactics." Zhao Yaning said. Benitez nodded and began to lay out his tactics.

Zhao Yaning also didn't know whether Benitez's actions were good or bad. This person is not very good at communicating with the players. His way of doing things is always stubborn. He used to be too contemptuous of Zhao Yaning, but now he is a little too careful. This makes Zhao Yaning also unaccustomed.

Fortunately, when it comes to tactics, he doesn't have too many problems.

At this time, Liverpool also ushered in their second-round opponent, West Ham United.

"We had better play this game better and let Mascherano know that a move to Liverpool is much better than a move to West Ham."

For this reason, Liverpool played a lot harder in the second game.

At this time, the transfer of Tevez and Mascherano has not yet been completed. Although their agency is operating very well, it is still too sensational for two players of this level to join a Premier League mid-range team. Some people suspect that there is any improper means behind the deal, and they have been sued by the FA. Up.

In this way, when the game started, West Ham United fans' dissatisfaction with the FA was all vented to Liverpool.

Of course, they are very dissatisfied with this survey. After all, last season, relying on the FA Cup runner-up, they got a place in the European war. In this way, they still have some appeal. But what the FA said is not wrong. It is indeed incredible to attract a football power to the national football team by relying on a European war spot.

Therefore, in this game, West Ham United would like to prove that they can beat a strong team like Liverpool and have a strong team.

And they did a good job. After less than ten minutes of opening, Zamora received a pass from Cork and kicked the ball into the goal. Reina had an obvious distraction in front of the goal, the ball was leaked by him and into the net.

"Pepe, it's okay for others to be distracted, don't be distracted. Don't tell me, you are tired too." Zhao Yaning looked at Renner and couldn't help but say.

Reina shrugged and smiled awkwardly, without saying anything. He is not tired, or after the start of the new season, he has not been in a good state. He gestured to Zhao Yaning to indicate that he would not make any more mistakes. Zhao Yaning patted him and ran to the front court again.

Just turn the game around. Looking at Renner's appearance, he should have been awakened, so that's good, everyone can always wake up gradually. Everyone wants to understand, the game will naturally be played smoothly.

But before again, I had to bear the offensive task.

Soon, Liverpool evened the score. Zhao Yaning shot from outside the penalty area and kicked the ball into the net.

"Zhao Yaning scored in two consecutive games! We all remember that his consecutive goals in the final stage of last season ensured the team's victory, and this season, his state came very early, two consecutive league games, he All scored goals for the team!"

At this time, Zhao Yaning didn't think there was anything to be happy about. If the teammates are in a little state, none of them will try to activate their teammates. However, Milito and Figo are both out of form, their running pace is still a bit lazy, so Zhao Yaning doesn't know what to do. Should we continue to pass the ball, or should we do it ourselves? Can such a state problem be obtained by feeding the ball? Zhao Yaning is not quite clear about these issues.

However, trusting his teammates is still something he must do, and towards the end of the first half, Zhao Yaning's pass finally worked.

This time, after his through the ball, Milito shot directly into the lower right corner of the goal, adding another goal for the team!

"Liverpool has a 2-1 lead now, let's see if they will change in the second half..."

"In the second half of the game, Kuyt replaced Milito and Garcia replaced Figo." In the locker room, Benitez made adjustments, which made Zhao Yaning breathe a sigh of relief: it seems that he has noticed the problem. He is not alone.

In the second half of the game, Liverpool's substitution adjustments still played a very good role. Although Kuyt's technique is a bit rough, he runs aggressively enough. As soon as he comes on the field, he messes up the opponent's back line, which also gives Zhao Yaning more opportunities.

Although it is the first time to play in the Premier League, Kuyt's Premier League experience is still almost zero, but his running is not slack in the slightest. This also made Zhao Yaning try, wanting to give him a few chances. However, when Zhao Yaning passed the ball for the first time, Kuyt could not understand, his running was not in place, and the second time, when he received the ball, he shot the ball wide. The third time. At that time, he was intercepted just after he made preparations.

How did his Eredivisie shooter get it? Zhao Yaning thought suspiciously. And, is he really a Dutch player? In Zhao Yaning's memory, the Dutch striker should be synonymous with efficiency and technique. Ruud van Nistelrooy, Mackay, and even Kluivert, who is known to not shoot, all have a good footwork. However, Kuyt's technique of stopping the ball to three meters away is also a wonderful thing in the Eredivisie?

Such a hard-working player without much skill is indeed something that people love and hate. No one dislikes their running effort, but such a wasted opportunity is really a headache.

At the end of the game, only a 2-1 score ended the whole game. Kuyt did not score a goal to make everyone happy, and the consecutive missed opportunities made people really helpless.

"It's okay, this is the first game after all, and the next game will be better." The game is over, everyone has to comfort him, after all, this is his first game, and he will do his best. He ran, what he needed was encouragement instead of scolding.

At this time ~www.ltnovel.com~Zhao Yaning also received another news from China: the head coach of the Chinese team has been decided. No one else was found, just the former assistant coach Gao coach of the national football team.

"I am a little younger, but he is still very smart. Moreover, I talked to him and he was very clever. I studied at Arsenal and met with Coach Wenger. He is a good coach." Zhang Yuan said a lot of good things to him, and he didn't avoid anything. "To be honest, it's almost the same to anyone. At any rate, he has been an assistant coach in the national team for two years and knows a lot about the national football. Moreover, The connections are good, so there will be no problems."

That's fine, Zhao Yaning nodded repeatedly to Zhang Yuan's words.

"This coach is still very confident. After he came up, he withstood the pressure and said, the Asian Cup qualifiers will not call you into the team. You must use new players to complete the reorganization of the national team."

This made Zhao Yaning a little relieved: Actually, Zhao Yaning was not needed in the Asian Cup qualifiers, and he would definitely be able to win. Let Zhao Yaning go, but it was just for peace of mind. This coach did not call Zhao Yaning because of his low qualifications. He hoped that he could bring out some results for others to see without relying on Zhao Yaning. This makes Zhao Yaning very satisfied. No matter what his ability, he has this heart, even if it is good.

"That's good. I didn't want to take care of the game on the national team. After all, this time, we are playing the Merseyside derby, and the teammates are not in good shape. It is troublesome for me to go back. ."

Putting aside the affairs of the national team, Zhao Yaning began to prepare for the game against Everton. However, the result of this game was far beyond everyone's expectations.

Liverpool lost 2-3 to Everton, ushering in the first defeat of the season early.
