Green Ace Marshal

In the 26th round of the league, Liverpool played West Brom at home.

Situ Yunbing is looking forward to a victory to allow the team to consolidate the advantage and start the European war in the second half of the season!

But what surprised Situ Yunbing was that Liverpool’s defense was blown out today!

To be precise, West Brom completed the defensive counterattack very well. On the basis of tough defense, they relied on the young genius Lukaku, who is known as a small Warcraft, to blow Scotter!

Lukaku scored both in the first and second halves, and Liverpool had hit the three-legged goalpost and crossbar before falling behind by two goals!

When the game came to 70 minutes, even some of the Red Army fans in the Anfield stand looked very pessimistic, thinking that the team's first home defeat of the season was about to be born!

But Situ Yunbing actively deployed his troops on the sidelines, changed three guards, and had a Vardy!

Gareth Bale has little room to play today. He was replaced early and Coutinho appeared.

After strengthening the long-range shot to grab opportunities in the penalty area, Liverpool's indiscriminate bombing of West Brom in the final 20 minutes of the game showed a crazy momentum.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Coutinho made a long shot from outside the penalty area to make West Brom goalkeeper Foster save, and Vardy made a clever shot to send the ball into the goal!

Liverpool pulled back a goal.

Liverpool, which has been aggressively attacking, repeatedly hit West Brom's defense with the hoarse cheering of the Red Army fans at Anfield.

When the game came to stoppage time, Suarez received Mahrez’s pass in the penalty area and flew the header directly to the center of the goal. Vardy took the lead in diagonally in front of defender Richville and slammed his head. Fly into the goal from above Foster's head!

Liverpool buzzer equalized the score!

All Liverpool fans on the scene were extremely excited. When they expected the team to create a miracle of reversal, the referee blew the whistle of the end of the game.

Situ Yun went to shake hands with West Brom coach Clarke after the match. For West Brom, a draw at Anfield is already a victory, but it is definitely a great victory for Liverpool. A result that is difficult for most people to accept.

The problem is being exposed little by little. Situ Yunbing currently has no good solutions. It is like today that Scotter was blown up by Lukaku. In fact, when he is a defender of other giants, he will play abnormally or just fail to guard. No matter how the top defender stays against the opponent, he doesn't make mistakes, because every player is a human being.

What the giants do on defense is nothing more than improving fault tolerance.

Better defensive concepts, stronger defensive systems, and defensive players with more outstanding personal abilities can all bring higher defensive fault tolerance.

Among Liverpool’s central defenders, Benatia has shown a gradual rise in the past few years, and has entered the ranks of Europe’s top central defenders, but Skrtel and Agger have not. They are always far from the top ranks. There is a certain distance, if Situ Yunbing wants to transform the back line, he can only give Benatia a good partner.

Liverpool's loss of points at home is equivalent to giving Manchester United a chance.

Manchester United also defeated Everton 2:0 at home to take all 3 points!

Liverpool, 67 points.

Manchester United, 59 points.

The gap between the two teams was 12 points before the three rounds, but now it has become 8 points. Manchester United seems to have opened the door to reversal!

Situ Yunbing responded to Alan Hansen with a tough stance before the game. This did not stop the "Liverpool star". Alan Hansen did not continue to speak publicly on this topic, but other Liverpool stars came forward again. John Barnes suggested that Situ Yunbing listen more to his predecessors, which would help his coaching.

Situ Yunbing felt a little tired of this and didn't want to make any further responses.

After spending half a day with Sigrid on Valentine's Day in Liverpool, Situ Yunbing led the team to St. Petersburg, Russia. The first round of the Europa League 1/16 final is about to start.

It was still freezing cold to go to Moscow in mid-February. In the pre-match report of this game, Alonzo's advice was: Go all out!

In his report, he elaborated in detail that this away game will probably determine whether Liverpool can advance to the next round.

If Liverpool want to make the first round even if they lose, and return to home in the second round, then their away game to challenge An Zhi in the group stage is enough to give enough warning!

Their main opponent is not how strong Zenit St. Petersburg is. Of course, they are not weak, but what bothers Liverpool is the change in physical condition brought about by the local cold weather and adjustment of jet lag.

Compared with playing away games from the UK to Germany, Spain, Italy, France and other countries, the expedition from the UK to Russia has a long time zone span and a journey that consumes a lot of money.

So if Situ Yunbing has ideas about the Europa League, then this away game must not have the slightest reservation in strength!

Because it is very likely that Zenit in St. Petersburg will do his best to defeat Liverpool at home, and it will be extremely difficult for Liverpool to come back to the home and want a comeback!

After careful consideration, Situ Yunbing made a decision and rushed to St. Petersburg with the main force of the whole army!

Even if three days later in the FA Cup, they will fight against their arch rival Everton!

Situ Yunbing, who led Liverpool's low-key expedition, couldn't help but shiver when the plane landed in St. Petersburg.

It is hard to imagine that there is still heavy snow here!

With the experience of being a guest in the group stage to challenge An Zhi, the Liverpool generals were mentally prepared before coming to St. Petersburg, but in fact some of the main players did not come at that time. The weather in the UK is not good. Liverpool is a little bit because it is a port city. Better, at least a lot better than London.

But after everyone came to St. Petersburg, they all seemed a little depressed. The harsh cold weather restricted everyone's excitement.

Zenit St. Petersburg is not an easy team to deal with. At least they have Hulk and Dani on the front line. They may not be enough to admire them in the top European stadiums, but on their home court, Zeni St. Petersburg The special combat effectiveness cannot be ignored.

Situ Yunbing, who was standing in the St. Petersburg Stadium in a warm coat and directing the game, felt that his nose was a little cold, which made him put his hands in front of his mouth and nose to breathe to warm his nose.

Liverpool attacked away, with all the elite, and still played a very utilitarian defensive counterattack. Situ Yunbing wants results, not training, so he will focus on results in tactical choices!

The coach of Zenit St. Petersburg is the former Rome coach Spalletti. He did not let Zenit St. Petersburg launch a fierce offensive against Liverpool, perhaps because of the fear of the Premier League giants.

Liverpool's overall state is mediocre, many advantages are not available, the overall response of the team seems to have dropped a lot, and Situ Yunbing has some psychological preparations for this.

However, Zenit St. Petersburg can hardly do anything in front of Liverpool's intensive defense. Hulk has a strong impact, but the overall creativity of Zenit St. Petersburg is not high, and there is no superiority in technical and tactical play. , Which put the game into a stalemate for a long time.

It wasn't until the 71st minute of the second half that Liverpool got a good free kick opportunity in the front of the opponent's penalty area.

Gerrard took the kick and slammed the ball into the upper right corner of the goal with a powerful volley!

The red captain's direct free kick broke the deadlock and balance of the game!

Situ Yunbing did not breathe a sigh of relief after the team scored. Instead, he intensively arranged the team to change the way of play and let them assume a more rigorous posture. Only Bell and Suarez were left to counterattack.

Zenit St. Petersburg began to attack wildly, in fact, regardless of whether Liverpool has this goal, they will hit Liverpool's defense at full speed in the last 20 minutes!

Because they know that to advance to the next round, they must win their opponents at home to have hope!

Under the full offensive pressure of Zenit St. Petersburg, Liverpool showed extraordinary calmness and teamwork ability, repeatedly restraining the opponent's threatening offensive. When the game was about to enter injury time, Liverpool seized the opponent's mad attack on the defense line. Vulnerability strikes back quickly!

After Suarez pushed the offensive to the dangerous area of ​​the frontcourt, he completed the pass and cooperated with Gareth Bale. When he regained possession of the ball on the penalty zone line, he changed the direction of the ball and wiped the opposing defender Leto, and then calmly pushed the goal to the lower left. The corner sent the ball into the goal!

Suarez's goal made Situ Yunbing very excited, and for a moment he even felt hot all over, dispelling all the chill!

The generals of Zenit St. Petersburg were a little helpless. Liverpool placed a intensive defensive position and they were really helpless, and they could not penetrate Liverpool's door with their best efforts!

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Situ Yunbing let out a sigh of relief. After shaking hands with Spalletti after the game, he gestured to the disciples on the sidelines to tell them not to be in the court. Too much stay, they have to buy time to return to Liverpool as soon as possible!

Three days later there is an FA Cup game waiting for them, and a week later, Zenit St. Petersburg will return to Anfield.

The UEFA Europa League knockouts are the top 32 fights, one more round than the UEFA Champions League knockouts.

If you count the Europa League qualifying matches, Liverpool is in the qualifying rounds, and there have been 10 games in the group stage, and 11 matches have been played today!

The frequency of the schedule is beyond imagination!

But it is precisely this frequent schedule that allows Liverpool to have enough stage and space for training.

In the knockout match with Zenit St. Petersburg, the first round was the most difficult match. Now Situ Yunbing has completed the match with the main lineup. The next round will have to rely on the substitute lineup. He cannot play in the Europa League. Excessive consumption of the main lineup on the field.

At least in the context of the undecided overall situation of the league title, it is not a wise approach to invest too much in other battlefields.
