Football No. 10: God's Perspective

Don't reach out, or you will be blown.

"Beep"

The referee blew the whistle, foul.

At the right side of the penalty area, Wang Pei won a free kick for the team.

The set-piece was sent out, and the flat arc turned to the penalty area. Liverpool sounded the air defense alarm, and the defensive leader Van Dijk jumped high to clear the ball out of the sideline, defusing Dortmund's attack.

Dortmund, who won the second penalty, still had a second chance to attack.

Brighton swung his strength, and a violent shot was blocked by Van Dijk again.

One man guards the pass, and ten thousand men cannot open it.

The Dutch built an airtight copper wall in front of Alisson to protect the goal.

This kind of defender who appeared at a critical moment and in a key position really gave people a huge psychological pressure.

After Dortmund's attack subsided, it returned to a quiet dormant period. Liverpool began to increase its firepower, but the ball was not running smoothly because Firmino was strangled at the point of passing. If an effective attack could not be formed on one side, the result would inevitably be a change of ball possession.

Compared with the first half, the change in defensive strategy gave Dortmund more opportunities to attack Liverpool's penalty area.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Dortmund's attack came again.

It was still Wang Po on the right side who launched the attack, or took advantage of the gap when Arnold on the right side of the opponent participated in the frontcourt attack and did not return to the defensive position in time. Facing the defense of Liverpool's midfield, he simply used speed to get rid of the opponent.

He took the ball to the penalty area and faced Van Dijk's defense again. Perhaps Wang Po's offensive choices in the previous few times confused the Dutchman. This time he was actually prepared to defend against direct and bottom crosses.

How could Wang Po miss such a huge defensive loophole? He lowered his shoulders and swung his pendulum. This time, Dortmund No. 11 chose to cut inside to the middle.

Van Dijk, who was lost in the center, wanted to block the inside line too late. His center of gravity was on the right and his body was on the left. The conflicting directions of the two sides made him do a split in the penalty area.

Such a move, apart from being embarrassing, had no effect on defense at all.

After getting rid of Van Dijk's defense, Wang Po took the ball to the penalty area. Kuhn next to him was staring at him. Matip didn't dare to let him pounce on Wang Po, so he could only fight and retreat, which gave him space to shoot.

One step into the penalty area line, Wang Po used his left foot to shoot a beautiful arc, with excellent angle, speed and power, which couldn't be more perfect.

Facing such a shot, Alisson's desperate save was useless.

"Wow, Robben-style goal, beautiful."

The commentator in front of the TV couldn't help but exclaimed.

Goal!

2 to 1.

Dortmund completed the reversal.

Suddenly, the enthusiasm of Dortmund fans was ignited.

Half of the stadium was on fire, and the cheers were earth-shaking.

The team fell behind, and the head coach Klopp on the sidelines finally couldn't sit still. He shouted loudly to the players on the field to adjust their positions. Henderson was moved to the central midfielder position, and Arnold was moved to the protection of his own defense zone.

Two small details were adjusted. One was to improve the team's poor ball distribution and organizational jams when Firmino was being marked, and the other was to restrict Wang Pei's activities on the wing.

In fact, as long as Dortmund could give the ball to Wang Pei who was active on the right side, the final trajectory of the ball would definitely end with the previous shot. The success rate was too high. One reason was Wang Pei's super personal ability, and the other was that the right side defender was often out of position, giving Wang Pei a very easy opportunity to single out the central defender.

Klopp has seen this point with his level and ability, but he has not changed it. The reason is that Arnold is very helpful to the offensive line and is an extremely important part of the offensive system.

Once he stays in the backcourt defense with all his heart and soul, the offense will inevitably be affected. Sacrificing offense to strengthen defense, "Uncle Zha" has been hesitant to make up his mind.

Now that the ball is lost, he finally makes such a decision.

The right side is opened up, one ball is lost, two balls are lost, and the third ball must not be lost.

The effect of such adjustment is immediate. When Wang Pei got the ball on the wing again, Fabinho and Arnold surrounded him at the first time. Not only that, there was Van Dijk who was eyeing him at the far end.

After passing Fabinho, Arnold took the ball away.

Such a single fight against the siege is very exhausting.

Another attempt to attack from the wing was still taken away by the encirclement team of the "Red Army".

After the ball was intercepted in the middle, Liverpool quickly switched from attack to handover. The three red arrows attacked Dortmund's defense at full speed. Henderson took the lead and participated in the control of the ball.

After Mane's continuous breakthroughs on the left attracted the defensive center of the Hornets, he passed the ball back to Henderson, who pretended to shoot but actually passed the ball, and then passed it back to Mane who cut into the penalty area. He shot at a small angle, but was saved by Schmelzer who was in great form.

Firmino struggled to grab the second point and passed it back to Henderson in the middle circle. He made a fake shot and passed Brighton who rushed forward, and took the ball into the penalty area in one step and shot violently.

This ball was unstoppable.

Schmelzer, who was in great form in this game, was powerless to save the situation.

2 to 2.

In the 9th minute after Wang Po scored a goal for Dortmund, Liverpool responded.

The score was tied.

It was exciting and wonderful.

Both sides are back on the same starting line again. In a game that will decide the outcome within 90 minutes, every remaining minute and second is extremely important for both teams.

Arnold can't go up, and Mane and Robertson's side has become a point of Liverpool's main attack.

The connection and cooperation between the wingers, full-backs and midfielders are very tacit, and the empty cuts and runs have repeatedly created killing opportunities.

The triangle cooperation of Mane, Arnold and Henderson tore open Dortmund's regional double-teaming defense. Henderson picked the ball into the penalty area, Mane used his chest to cushion it, and without waiting for the ball to land, he directly volleyed and the ball went straight into the goal.

2 to 3.

The game came to the 83rd minute, and Liverpool took the lead.

Now, the half of the field belonging to the "Red Army" was completely burning, and the emotions of the fans were ignited.

After scoring the goal to overtake, this time, Klopp could no longer hold back his emotions, and he didn't care whether he was the old master or not. He hugged Mane, the hero of the goal, and roared passionately.

Losing the ball during this period means that Dortmund is pushed to the edge of the cliff. They have little time left and have to fight to the death.

Tuchel on the sidelines had cold sweat dripping down his forehead, and his shirt was soaked with nervousness.

The dream is within reach.

Too close and too far.

Tuchel is eager for the championship, Wang Po is eager, and the players of Dortmund are also very eager.
