Chapter 82 The Bad Luck of the French
Anfield Stadium is unpleasant for any team in the Premier League, unforgettable and full of tragic atmosphere. There are many stories and many legends here. No matter which team comes to Anfield Stadium, they will always be inadvertently respecting the stadium, and no matter where away games are played here, no one is willing to do.
But this is the case for football games. If there is a home game, there will be a away game, which will make it fairer. Against Liverpool, this is not a game that cannot be won for Chelsea, especially since this season, or in other words, the Reds have been declining in the past few seasons...
However, not everyone is very comfortable. At least Qin Tian, who is sitting on the bench, is still unhappy. Although he promised Di Matteo that he could accept being a substitute in the remaining league, he was always in a mess. For someone like Qin Tian who is obsessed with football, if you take him to the away game and don’t let him play, you might as well not bring him here.
Of course, sometimes sitting on the bench may not be a bad thing. At least a smart player knows that sitting off the court is not for you to play. You have to observe your teammates' running and the performance of the opponent's players, learn something from what kind of inspirational performances, and be prepared for the game at any time. How many years you play, you have to learn for many years. This is the quality that a successful professional player must possess, and it is also the difference between a superstar and a star.
"Good evening, everyone, welcome to watch the 37th round of the 2009-2010 English Football Super League, with Liverpool playing against Chelsea at home. Many fans are concerned about Qin Tian's latest situation. According to the news we received before the game, Qin Tian will not start in this game. Now it seems that this is true. He sat on the bench. Has he not recovered yet?" Jianhong sat in the studio of BJ. When he said this casually, thousands of zg fans were heartbroken.
"Guide Zhang, do you have any more recent news?"
"Haha, according to my understanding, Qin Tian should have recovered, and his attending doctor has proved this. As for the fact that he did not start today, I think the more important reason is that Coach Dimateo wants Qin Tian to feel the atmosphere of the game first and be familiar with the changes in his teammates during this period. After all, he has not been suspended for a short time."
"It should be so, otherwise he wouldn't have said that Qin Tian was pressed on the bench."
"If there is another reason, it is that Coach Dimatio may think that the league is no longer the highlight. The overall situation has been decided. There is no need to let Qin Tian go up. Training the team is the right way. You will know when you look at the starting list later." Director Zhang said professionally, flipping the information in his hand.
Because Qin Tian did not participate in the game during this period, there have been fewer games on Chelsea. The commentators who commented on the Chelsea game also seemed less active. At least the passionate scenes before disappeared, especially Astor from Stamford Bridge, who often felt that he was asleep in the commentary seat.
But no matter what, this game was the first game after Qin Tian’s comeback, and many loyal fans came to the scene or sat in front of the TV to watch it. After all, Qin Tian came on the stage, and it would be a pity if he didn’t see it.
Less than ten minutes into the game, Liverpool, who played at home, took the lead and seized a chance to set the ball. The ball sent by Gerald was relatively flat and the speed was very fast. Turnbull, who was substituting Cech, was hard to say that the ball was firmly held. The ball caused a scheming chaos in the penalty area. Several people rushed to touch the ball, but no one successfully cleared the ball and was not sent into the goal.
In the last moment, Liverpool midfielder Aquilani shot the ball from behind, penetrated the ball through Turnbull's crotch and drilled into the net. Facing the situation where his vision was completely blocked, Turnbull could only sit on the lawn, shake his head, and smile helplessly at the football behind him.
"Liverpool has changed a lot this season. Although they do not lack the kind of person who scored the finale in front of the goal, they lack the star who scored the finale in the game. After losing multiple main players in succession, the Reds in the past always feel that they can't stand up. Just like in this situation, even if they lead, people who see it feel like they will be equalized soon." Coach Zhang seems to be a Liverpool fan, with a tone of disappointment.
"But this ball still reflects their enterprising spirit. After all, their strength is there. Di Matteo pressed one-third of the main players on the bench. I don't know what impact it will have on the game, but he conceded the ball less than a while after the game. I think coach Di Matteo himself didn't expect it." The director on the scene also quickly scanned the camera on Chelsea's bench after Liverpool scored. Several main players, Qin Tian, Lampard, Terry and Cech, had no expressions on their faces, and they were all very calm. Only Ozil and Drogba on one side were heartless and didn't know what they were talking about, and they smiled happily.
However, Dimateo was different. He stood up abnormally, walked to the sidelines, and shouted loudly at the players on the court. Although it was not a big deal to lose this time, he didn't want others to say that he only relied on the team's stars to win the championship. As an emerging coach, Dimateo longed to be respected by others.
Against Liverpool, facing such traditional giants, he is undoubtedly a good opponent to test Di Matteo's coaching ability. Moreover, the opponent's ability this season has declined, and the league ranking has already said everything. If such a team cannot win, Di Matteo feels that he is really in vain. However, he was hit in the first 10 minutes, which undoubtedly made Di Matteo look very anxious.
"Boss, it seems a little irritable today." Lampard sat next to Qin Tian with his legs crossed. Seeing Dimateo looking out of control, he couldn't help laughing.
"Tsk, he just asked himself and cared too much about the outside world's opinions. Obviously, our group of people are sitting here, and they have to deal with the difficulties of large-scale injuries to the main players. We need to simulate it and let everyone adapt. Nonsense, I will win," Drogba said carelessly.
"The boss's consideration is reasonable. After all, there are so many games in a season, you can't expect everyone to be healthy every day, and there are yellow and red cards and other problems." Cech was still very fair, but the next sentence revealed that this kid is not a good bird. "But Turnbull didn't even save the ball just now. It's too irresistible. If I were to go up, that kid wouldn't think of scoring the goal. Well, after the game, you have to practice him well for a few days."
Everyone rolled their eyes to Cech, "Okay, don't talk nonsense. They all said the same thing as they were true. I guess I would like to play a few times less. Anyway, no dime will be less than you. Besides, even if you want to call, it should be Qin Ba. Judging from his eagerness to try, this kid must have been suffocated at home by the days without a game." Terry was completely different from the field off the court, with a ** look.
"Yes, Qin, why don't you talk to the boss and let you make this game come on?" Ozil also came over.
"Go and go, I'm so annoying. Do you think I didn't ask for it? The boss said that you need to train how you play football without me. Tell me about you, it won't make me worry..." Qin Tian looked around and shook his head, looking like a stinky fart.
Lampard and others looked at each other and looked at each other. Everyone rushed towards Qin Tian and beat him up, "It's so painful that you are so hurt. You dare to get up with us five or six. Brothers, beat him." Cech, who was sitting at the farthest, slid over quietly and rubbed Qin Tian's hair.
In addition to head coach Di Matteo, Chelsea's bench was filled with joy and laughter...
After Liverpool scored a goal, he seemed to have overwhelmed his confidence and his offense was even more resolute, posing threats to Chelsea's goal many times. However, such unscrupulous attack will also leave hidden dangers on their defense. Among the Chelsea players on the court, Maluda and Anelka are not slow. Once they succeed in counter-offside, Liverpool will be in danger. In fact, 20 minutes later, such an opportunity does appear.
In the 31st minute, Liverpool did not succeed in the continuous attack, and the defense line unknowingly overwhelmed the center line. As a result, Turnbull did not give them the chance to adjust the offensive rhythm again. He directly drove the ball to the front court and found Maluda who came back from the left to defend. At this time, Maluda's position was very good, and there were no Liverpool players around him. After an acceleration, Maluda's front was simply flat.
The Liverpool player in the middle was running back desperately, trying to stop Maluda, but Maluda quickly went to the bottom line and successfully passed the ball to the middle. At this time, Anelka, who was raiding in the middle, did not have a defensive player around him. After adjusting slightly, he just needed to kick the ball.
But just after Anelka kicked the ball out, Anelka, who chose to play the rebound, was definitely a joke by God. The goalkeeper had already pounced on the wrong direction, but just as the ball fell on the lawn in front of the goal and was about to rebound into the goal, a small piece of protruding turf saved Liverpool, and the ball rubbed the post and drilled out.
"This ball..." Qin Tian, who was sitting off the court, held his head regretfully, wondering what he was feeling at the moment, "Is this the charm of football?" Qin Tian turned around and asked Lampard beside him.
Lampard shrugged, "Don't ask me, sometimes, some things and some accidents cannot be explained clearly. I can only say that what you see is not true. Oh my God, I hope Anelka won't be depressed."
Di Matteo also looked helpless, and only wrote a few words on his face, "God, play with me", but he still clapped at Anelka, "I did a good job, I did a good job, continue, continue, just attack like this to suppress the opponent."
Anelka on the court was also negatively affected by this ball, but he soon recovered. As a striker, there are too many things like this, but every time he encounters it, he always gets a little bit of a heart and will get better after a while.
However, in the last time of the first half, the score on the field did not change. After the two sides had a quarrel between each other, the referee blew the ending whistle. Whether it was the scene or the score, it made the scene and the fans in front of the TV a little regretful. After all, there was no passion, and the games with few goals always made people drowsy...
