The entire Derby County team was full of fighting spirit and was not affected by Liverpool's goals. Instead, they performed better. In contrast, Liverpool felt the pressure in the game. Faced with this pressure, coupled with the advantage of a goal, their offense slowed down a little.

As time passed, Derby County obviously suppressed the situation.

Before they knew it, the media and fans found that Derby County had the initiative on the court, and their offenses had more attacks than Liverpool and their offense threats were greater than Liverpool.

The media and fans discovered it, and Liverpool coach Benitez naturally discovered it.

At this time, Benitez's no-no wrinkled slightly. He had no worries about the game just now. The team took the lead in scoring a goal, and the game was at Anfield Stadium. He thought the game would be smoother, but he didn't expect the situation would become like this now.

This Derby County is harder to fight than I thought!

Espanyol suddenly realized that he still underestimated his opponent. Van der Fate and Ivan Kreu were unexpected in this game, but the most unexpected thing was that Derby County was posing as a stance against Liverpool.

From the perspective of others, Liverpool is not good at attacking, while Derby County is good at attacking, so the advantageous side is naturally in Derby County.

But in Benitez's view, Liverpool has an advantage. This is Anfield Stadium, Liverpool's territory, and the team's strength is not worse than Derby County. Every front of the team is an experienced veteran. With the midfield core Steven Gerrard, Liverpool will not be afraid of playing against any team at this stadium.

As for Liverpool's defense?

Liverpool is not a team that is good at defense. In the past, they have been shrinking their defense line and focusing on defense. In fact, the reason is that Liverpool's defense is not good, which sounds strange, but in fact, you can see that in the summer and the reports on Liverpool's analysis in the present. Although Liverpool's forward line is not good now, defense is also a big problem. Liverpool's defense still has to rely on veteran Heipia. As the core of the midfield, Gerald has to put in a lot of energy on defense.

It can be said that Liverpool is now defensive and dragging off the offense.

In the summer, Benitez introduced players such as Xavi Alonso, Luis Garcia, Cice, etc. to strengthen the team's offensive ability. However, except for Xavi Alonso, the performance of other new players was very average. The reason was the drag on defense. Benitez did not dare to let Luis Garcia, a forward-looking player who was very focused on offense, so Liverpool's defense would become very fragile.

Now Liverpool just wants to compete with Derby County with offense, so Benitez no longer cares about the defensive shortcomings, he just fights against offense and goals. In his opinion, Liverpool can at least compete with Derby County, but what he didn't expect was that after scoring a goal, the situation became more and more passive?

Benitez quickly thought of the key to the problem - the team is still not very adaptable to the offensive style, especially under the suppression of the opponent's full-game press. The team faces a lot of pressure, and many players subconsciously begin to shrink their defense, just like they do on weekdays.

But this won't work!

This game is about fighting against Derby County. If you score a goal to defend, it will put the team in a passive state, not only will the offense be poor, but the defense will also be poor.

Benitez quickly realized the danger.

But when he wanted to make adjustments, it was already a little too late

Xavi Alonso was holding the ball and slowly carrying it forward.

As Benitez came to Liverpool, he was the first Spanish star to buy. Alonso was a high-profile player in Liverpool. He was a member of Real Sociedad and in 2001, he served as the captain of Real Sociedad when he was 20 years old.

In 2003, it was the turning point for Alonso's rise to become a star. He became a key figure in Real Sociedad. With his excellent forward combination, he helped the team win second in the La Liga, second only to Real Madrid, which was full of stars at the time. Previously, Real Sociedad could only struggle to relegate.

It was this performance that touched Benitez. Alonso joined Liverpool for a high price of 10.5 million pounds in the summer.

After coming to Liverpool, Alonso quickly gained a position. In more than half a year, he has become the absolute main force in the midfield and Steven Gerrard's partner in the middle.

In this game, Alonso also partnered with Gerald, but now he is dribbling the ball from the left. It is not that he wants to dribble the ball here, but that he is squeezed to the left. The main reason is that he finds that the defensive pressure he has to face is really a bit too high.

Whenever Alonso gets the ball, he has to face two people, one is Van der Fate, and the other is Leon Ottoman. Van der Fate is better, he just retreats to defend. Ottoman really makes Alonso miserable.

Alonso has just arrived in England for half a year and has performed well in the Premier League, but it does not mean that he has fully adapted to the Premier League confrontation. Now he has to face the pressure of confrontation with Ottoman. Because of this, he was squeezed to the left because he must face Ottoman in the middle - he is really a little scared.

The position on the left side is much smaller than the resistance in the middle, so Alonso attacks from the left position. He has the ability to break through and has stronger passing ability. Liverpool's core is Gerrard, but now Longsou is also very important, so when Liverpool attacks, he leans a little to the left. In this way, right forward Ivan Kreu and right defender Leto Ziegler are very critical in defense.

But the most important thing is the Ottoman!

As long as Ottoman appears, he will be the biggest barrier in front of Derby County. Especially Van der Fate's defensive ability is no longer as good as Morris, Ottoman becomes more critical. His running range is larger, and he needs to defend the area and light. Before the game, Wan Sheng reminded Ottoman not to let Alonso play at will, so Ottoman naturally took more care of Alonso, but Alonso dribbled the ball to the left, so he couldn't always follow the opponent.

Now Ottoman is running back slowly beside Gerald.

He kept staring at Alonso's dribbling and paying attention to his pass. Many people were staring at Alonso. Because the football was at his feet, Ottoman's attention did not attract Alonso's attention. He dribbled the ball across the center line, glanced at the positions of each teammate, and judged how to pass the ball.

At this time, Ottoman suddenly distanced Gerald.

He didn't do this on purpose. It's just that he couldn't keep staring at Gerald. When Gerald ran too far, defending was the job of a central defender. Except for special moments such as corner kicks, his defense area was always ahead.

He is a midfielder, not a central defender.

This is a normal defensive rotation in Derby County's defensive system, but Alonso noticed it, so he decisively led the ball to the front of the right, just to pass the ball to Gerard.

Suddenly, the stadium stands were even louder!

But Gerald could receive this ball. He had no chance at all, because Ottoman turned around and stretched his foot to block the ball. His toes touched the ball, and the football turned around and rolled to Luis Garcia's feet. But next, Luis Garcia had to face the clamping defense between Ziegler and Ivan Crew. Garcia seemed to be trying to show his outstanding footwork, but as a result, he swayed left and right, but fell to the ground. He quickly called the referee to signal the opponent to foul, but unfortunately the referee ignored the competition.

It was normal for two people to snatch one person and the body crashed to the ground!

After breaking the ball from Luis Garcia, Ziegler decisively passed the ball to Ivan Cru. Ivan Cru passed Van der Fate again. Van der Fate dribbled forward and moved forward two steps forward to Ribery on the left, while he ran forward regardless of the situation.

After passing two and three feet. After completing a large-scale transfer, Liverpool's defense was in a panic. Their offense became an excellent fast attack opportunity in Derby County!

Seeing the football flew towards him, Ribery knew that the opportunity had come. Instead of waiting for the ball in place, he rushed towards the football.

This will shorten the distance between him and the football and receive the pass as fast as possible.

Now, half a second is also extremely important!

In the counterattack in Derbyshire, Ribery's dribbling has always been very important. He is very fast and has excellent personal dribbling skills. In the football training master system, his dribbling ability is close to Van der Fate, but in actual games, Ribery's dribbling is more exciting than Van der Fate. This may be due to the position and is also related to the two's habits in the game.

Ribery likes to drive the ball and break through by himself, while Van der Fate prefers to pass and cooperate.

So in the actual game, everyone felt that Ribery was better at dribbling than Van der Fate, and his extremely fast speed, when Ribery got the ball and rushed forward, it was really like he was about to fly.

The Liverpool players who are on par with Ribery don't have time to defend, let alone the players standing in the Derby County half.

There was a wide open in front of Ribery.

But there are still some players who can come to defend, Liverpool's full-back Lisser. Lisser is a "panyaki" player like Russey. He can be competent in any position and can do well, but he has no one to do very well. However, Lisser can play for Liverpool, and his ability and fame are better than Russey.

When the media commentator shouted "This is a counterattack from Derbyshire", Ribery and Ribery collided directly. Ribery did not pass the ball directly, which made Ribery, who was ready to intercept at any time, feel despised, but soon as Ribery changed the ball to one side and quickly jumped past him, it became unimportant to what Libery had, because he was easily left behind by Ribery.

Suddenly, Liverpool fans exclaimed, while Derby County fans who came with the team cheered.

Seeing Lisser being easily swung past, Liverpool coach Benitez suddenly stood up from his seat.

His eyes were staring at the stadium.

Danger has emerged.

Derby County's counterattack speed is very fast. Liverpool just attacked, and only Riser and two central defenders could have time to defend in the backcourt. However, Riser was drifted past, leaving only two central defenders. However, three players in Derby County rushed to the frontcourt. In addition to Ribery who dribbled the ball, there were Van der Fate and Bolton Reit.

3 to 2, dangerous!

Wan Sheng also watched this scene, his fists were tightly clamped. At present, scoring goals is too important to the team. Because just having confidence and fighting spirit is not enough for the game. At the same time, scoring goals also brings confidence and the source of fighting spirit. With goals, the team can have more confidence and fighting spirit.

Liverpool leads, and the score is not good for the team. So if you want to win or even have a big victory, it is necessary to quickly tie the score, otherwise you can only think about it if you want a big victory.

Now is a great opportunity!

Ribery continued to drive the ball and ran wildly, and after passing Riser, there was a blank in front, but he was not blinded by the situation.

He is very calm.

After experiencing the last lesson, Ribery knew that as a full-timer, if you want to play better, or even succeed, you must know when to pass the ball and when to dribble the ball. It sounds simple, but to make accurate judgments, you have to follow your own abilities. He just chose to surpass himself, which was confidence in himself, and now he knows that he should pass the ball.

But when to pass the ball is a question, just passing the ball directly is simply a waste of opportunity.

Ribery dribbled the ball while observing the opponent's defensive player's position. He was very fast, and the opponent had to pay attention to defense when retreating, so Ribery rushed over quickly.

Seeing Ribery dribbled the ball and rushed towards him. Hepiya and Finnan both knew that they had to split their hands to defend. Now it was a 3-to-2 situation. They were ‘2’ and they had to miss one person. When the player dribbled the ball, they had to defend.

The two looked at each other. Finnan rushed over.

Seeing the opponent's adjustment, Ribery smiled. 3-to-2 is the advantage, and how the opponent should defend. It was expected, so there is no need to think about how to do it now. The offensive routine has been completely designed, and it depends on whether the temporary performance can go all the way to the end.

When Finnan rushed over, Ribery passed the ball.

With a long diagonal pass, the football was sent to the blank area in front of Botton Reit. The passing speed was a bit fast. Finnan and Hypia could only watch the ball rolling over, but at the same time they were delighted.

In their opinion, this pass is a bit big!

"Ribery's mistake!?" Even the live commentator at Anfield Stadium said in confusion.

He was unsure of the judgment, but just said it based on his experience in watching the ball.

Soon he knew that his judgment was inaccurate because the young high center in Derby County was very fast!

Ribery and Reit have been working together for a season and a half. There is a good understanding between the two. When Finnan rushed over, Reit knew that Ribery would definitely pass the ball to him. When Ribery kicked the ball, he rushed forward immediately.

In fact, Rett's explosive power was not strong. His speed was faster than Ribery, Van der Fate and others, but that was the speed of running. In the initial explosion, due to physical flexibility, he could only be considered average, but this could not resist Rett's reaction was fast. When Ribery kicked the ball, Rett had already started running forward. So when he saw the football flying over and seeing Rett in the direction of the football, he gave people an illusion that this young high center forward was really fast!

Reit stepped forward with two long legs, crossed a few meters in three or two steps, and stopped the ball with his left foot forward with his inner instep.

He has faced goalkeeper Dudek directly.

"One-stop"

At this moment, Reit suddenly remembered in his mind that at the end of last season, when the team was in the relegation stage, he played as a forward for the first time. After facing the goalkeeper, Wan Sheng said to him, "You must be confident when facing the goalkeeper. Only when you believe in your ability and maintain a stable mentality can you score a goal with greater possibility! Otherwise, you cannot become a qualified forward!"

Derby County has now entered the Premier League schedule and is facing a strong team like Liverpool.

But the same is that he still often remembers what Wan Sheng said to him, which gave him great confidence and motivation, and now he faces the goalkeeper alone again.

Liverpool goalkeeper?

What is its name?

Reit couldn't scream. He only knew that the opponent was his opponent now. While he quickly dribbled the ball forward, the opponent had already rushed out of the goal. The opponent was tall and stretched out his arms, as funny as a mantis!?

Rett didn't want to laugh, he just stared at the other person.

When the opponent rushed to a few meters in front of him, he waved his right foot high and then pulled the ball hard. After a muffled sound, the ball suddenly rushed out of the grass and flew straight towards the goal!

After kicking the ball, Reit was still staring at it.

He saw the opponent subconsciously wave his arm to block the ball, but the football rushed over from the left first.

He smiled.

The moment the football flew into the goal, Rett waved his arms fiercely and jumped up excitedly. Then the audience was silent. The voice of the TV station commentator also rang, "The ball has entered!"

“al!!!”

"Bolton"

"Rett" (To be continued)
Chapter completed!
