Chapter 82 The final goal!

In Benitez's view, Wan Sheng was really bold and chose to sacrifice Anelka's scoring ability to create opportunities for others.

Compared to letting Anelka play, such a style of play is really not good or bad, but Liverpool did not expect that he did not expect that the goal just now also proved that Wan Sheng's tactic was successful, and Benitez could only smile bitterly at this.

Of course he was unwilling to fail like this, but in a situation where he fell behind 0:2, his team would not have any chance unless the "Istanbul Miracle" was performed at Manchester Stadium.

At the same time, a scene in the stands of Liverpool fans attracted a lot of attention. After seeing Robbie Fowler scored, many Liverpool fans shouted a touching sentence, "Robbie, come back!"

There were only a few voices at the beginning, and soon Liverpool fans shouted, making the atmosphere of the entire court very touching. Robbie Fowler also stopped and looked over. His face disappeared. There was no excitement on his face. There was only complexity, and the only thing that was not in the complex emotions was touching.

He is indeed a player who has gone out of Liverpool, but he did not leave at that time, but the club insisted on selling him!

At that time, he was suffering from injuries and could only watch his friend Michael Irving gradually became famous, while he was gradually forgotten. Next, Liverpool Club also gave up on him. He was traded to Leeds United and came to Manchester City again.

In the past few years, Liverpool has never thought of recalling itself, but now they suddenly think of themselves!?

It's really ridiculous!

Liverpool has weak forwards and lacks strikers, and they are in good condition, so they think of themselves, but now they don’t need to leave Manchester City, because they are in good condition. No one knows what it will look like when they leave Liverpool.

So the answer is already very obvious.

Robbie Fowler shook his head, no longer thought about these troublesome things, and continued to run forward and join the game.

The game on the court has become increasingly fierce.

Although everyone knows that Liverpool has little chance, they still try their best to play in the game. They have already attacked, and the entire formation is still very powerful. Manchester City has no need to fight with them. So they retreated slightly, and Liverpool actually played some advantages on the field.

At the most intense moment of the game, both head coaches, Wan Sheng and Benitez, did not sit on the coach's seat. Instead, they walked to the sidelines, and both of them focused on the game.

Now both sides have some opportunities.

Since Manchester City scored two goals, they did not have to fight Liverpool to fight to the death, so they focused on defense. Liverpool made a big effort and put it in a high position. But what we can see is that their defense in the backcourt is very open, but now their only choice is to attack.

For a while, both teams had a little bad luck.

Liverpool put the ball into the penalty area three times in a row. Two more times created a threat, but in the end they still failed to score; Manchester City also got the chance twice and made a quick counterattack, but the two mistakes of the frontcourt players were wasted all the opportunities.

Until the last ten minutes of the game entered, the two sides fought fiercely, and the score on the field did not weaken at all due to the passage of time.

The score is still 2:0, and Manchester City leads at home.

Although Liverpool played very well on the court, the Liverpool media's face was no longer good, because it was obvious who won and who lost. They originally came with expectations of defeating Manchester City. As a result, Manchester City now leads two goals, which is completely different from what they expect.

The game process also made them unsatisfied because Robbie Fowler became a key player and performed very well.

They look forward to Robbie Fowler returning to Anfield Stadium. But they definitely don't expect Robbie Fowler to perform so well, because in this case, it is impossible for Manchester City to let go. Robbie Fowler must play at Manchester City until the end of the season - even if he is willing to leave.

So they could only curse in their hearts, "Damn Manchester!"

At the minute, both sides were still entangled and stalemate.

On the other hand, Manchester City media were very happy. There were too many things worth talking about in this game. The excitement itself was unexpected. Manchester City won the biggest winner because this was their tenth victory in the league - ten consecutive victories!

Ten consecutive Premier League wins are all very dazzling results!

Chelsea's nine consecutive wins at the beginning of the season were already quite terrifying. They didn't expect Manchester City to have such a good result, so they had enough reason to be happy about it.

So as time passes little by little and gets closer and closer to the end of the game, Manchester City media reporters are as excited as fans. Some of them are real Manchester City fans. It is normal to be happy about Manchester City's results, while others are purely excited about post-match reports. They are sure that the "Manchester City's ten consecutive victories" will definitely attract the attention of the entire England and even Europe.

Seeing the Manchester City media appearance, Liverpool media could only curse in their hearts.

But they had to envy the ten consecutive victories in their hearts. Such a good result is indeed worth celebrating wildly.

Until now, everyone thinks that the game is over, and Manchester City won 2:0 is the best result.

But there is one person who doesn’t think so, that’s Wansheng.

Indeed, it is amazing to be able to win Liverpool 2-0 at home and win the tenth league game, but what he knows more is that he has to take every minute of every game very seriously. Even if he leads 2-0 now, in fact, the team has not done its best. Some players on the court have been lazy, and their running has become less active, so they missed some opportunities.

Wan Sheng couldn't help but walk to the sidelines and yelled, "Be serious! The game is not over yet! Now is not the time to know!"

Under his urging, Manchester City's performance on the court improved a lot.

Next, Li Wansheng plans to replace him.

At this time, the team leads 2:0, and substitutions are very technical, because victory is not the only one, and substituting a substitute can also give others a chance. Of course, the most important thing is that it cannot affect victory.

So who should I change to?

Wan Sheng replaced two people in one breath, one was Kopelle Ferreira, who replaced the captain Distin with his physical decline, and the other was Andy Cole, who replaced the outstanding Robbie Fowler.

In comparison, the subsequent talent replacement is eye-catching.

Robbie Fowler's performance is really good. Both Manchester City's goals are directly related to him. Now Wan Sheng chooses to replace him. There are actually two reasons. One is naturally to give him the opportunity to send applause from all the fans. The other is that his physical fitness is almost at its limit. He has too many running tactical movements, and the requirements for physical fitness are still very large, especially for frontcourt players, who need to keep running back and forth. They also have to fence the frontcourt, which is very physically consuming.

In fact, increasing physical energy consumption in football matches is an overall trend, and it is not only the teams with ten thousand victories.

Fifty years ago, an excellent professional player only needed to run four thousand meters on the court; ten years ago, a professional player who ran 10,000 meters was already considered to be quite top-notch, and such players would definitely be praised for their diligence at that time; but now, 10,000 meters has almost become the professional standard for division - if you run 10,000 meters in a game, you are just passing the exam.

This is the general trend of football development in running. The eleven people on the field are gradually blurred. A team has become a whole, and more and more runnings drive the overall operation.

Wansheng's "kill" tactic is definitely in line with the laws of football development, so it has good power. Of course, it also has very high requirements for players to run.

There are several players in the team who are very physically healthy, such as Joey Patton, Distin, Anelka, etc., but Robbie Fowler is definitely not one of them. Due to frequent injuries over the years, even though he is in good health, his physical fitness ranks last in the team.

Since he couldn't run anymore, staying on the court would also drag down the entire team, so Wan Sheng had to choose to replace him.

When Robbie Fowler left the court, Manchester City fans in the audience gave him a greeting. He hugged Andy Cole, who was walking on the court, and walked off the court.

Wan Sheng also met with it, threw a bottle of water over, patted Robbie Fowler on the shoulder and said, "Beautiful job!"

Robbie Fowler smiled and thanked the praise.

Next, Wan Sheng grabbed Robbie Fowler's hand and walked back to the coach's seat to sit. It's not that he wants to touch a man's hand, right? It's a bit disgusting to say this, but in fact, this is mainly for the media to see.

Do you think Robbie Fowler is infinitely close to Liverpool?

Take a look!

Robbie Fowler is in very good shape. He has become a player who decides the outcome in the game against Liverpool. At the same time, he has a very high relationship with head coach Wan Sheng. The two can chat and laugh like friends, and there is no conflict at all. So how could Robbie Fowler choose to leave Manchester City and return to Liverpool?

Andy Cole has already appeared.

In the team, Andy Cole is a newcomer, but no one dares to underestimate this veteran. In fact, some Manchester City fans have opposed Cole's identity as his rival Manchester United in the summer. However, with several league games, Kele's performance on the court has made him accepted by more Manchester City fans.

Now he has become a very important card in Wansheng's hand.

Among Manchester City's strikers, Anelka attracts the most attention, and his performance is so eye-catching; in addition, as a newcomer, Darren Bent has definitely performed well, because he is still a young player, many media and fans pay more attention to him; in the current game, Robbie Fowler has performed in an excellent state.

Manchester City's forward line has blossomed at multiple points!

But under such circumstances, no one dares to ignore Andy Cole. As a 34-year-old veteran, his stable goals are shocking.

In the previous league, Andy Cole scored three goals, which was not a lot of them, but in fact, he only played 8 times, and 4 of them were on the bench. This efficiency was still very good.

Wan Sheng is also looking forward to Andy Cole's appearance. He wants to see what other surprises this veteran can bring.

But not everyone understands his substitution, especially Robbie Fowler, who performed the best, so when he saw Manchester City's substitution, a commentator said, "Look! Manchester City made substitution adjustments, and Robbie Fowler walked off the field with cheers from the whole game. It seems that Wan Sheng wanted Fowler to enjoy a heroic treatment, but it is still a bit early to substitution now. 2:0 can indeed guarantee victory, but Robbie Fowler is on the court, which will pose a greater threat to Liverpool. Even if the substitution is substituted, he should replace a young player and give young players some opportunities to play and practice." Unfortunately, he said nothing can change Wan Sheng's decision, and Andy Cole has already appeared.

When Liverpool saw Andy Cole appearing, they felt a little humiliated. They thought it was Manchester City who thought they would definitely win the game, but their offensive became even stronger.

The game has reached its final stage.

Manchester City didn't expect Liverpool to attack so hard, and they played a little passively for a while, but their defense was still very tight. At the same time, with the support of Morris, Joey Patton and others, they frequently counterattacked.

This time when Morris intercepted the ball, he was very calm in the face of Liverpool players' pressing.

He passed the ball firmly to Joey Barton.

Joey Barton stopped the ball and directly transferred it to Andy Cole in front. Andy Cole kicked it to Sinclair. The football has been transferred several times and has already gone from Manchester City to Liverpool's half.

This kind of transmission and coordination is very pleasing to the eye, and many fans in the stands cheered.

The football had reached Sinclair's feet, and with the cheers coming from his ears, he suddenly accelerated and brought them forward.

Sinclair is not very famous, but he has always been Manchester City's main wing forward, and even Wright Phillips is difficult to replace him.

What he relies on is speed and breakthrough ability. His speed is very fast, and the breakthrough action is simple and practical. It is relying on these two abilities that he can firmly take the main position at Manchester City, and his speed and breakthrough have also become an important offensive method for Manchester City.

Liverpool is now facing a high point. They have just finished a wave of offensives, and their backcourt defense seems very empty. Sinclair directly chose to dribble the ball by himself.

In fact, this is the task assigned to him by Wan Sheng.

The ‘kill’ tactic does require cooperation, but the game field changes so it is impossible to always rely on cooperation regularly. When the opponent’s defense is empty, it is naturally the most practical to counterattack faster. Now it is time to reach the critical moment.

When Sinclair drove the ball, Liverpool's defense immediately panicked.

Their defense was empty, and the wing could almost be described as no one. When Sinclair rushed up, they could not defend effectively. As a result, they could only divide the right side of the middle and could only divide the Finnin to interfere, but it was difficult for him to stop Sinclair.

Taking it to the Liverpool penalty area, Sinclair's speed slowed down.

He did not intend to bring the ball to the bottom line, and doing so would be very impractical. He just glanced in the middle and then chose to pass the ball directly!

This pass is very sudden!

Finnan originally wanted to stop Sinclair in front, but he didn't know that he was passing the ball like this? As a result, he could only watch the football rushing into the middle.

There is a figure there - Morris!

Morris followed up and received the ball in front of the penalty area line. This position was quite dangerous. Jamie Carragher who was retreating almost gave up Anelka and ran over, but what he didn't expect was that Morris did not stop the ball at all, but continued to make a pass.

Left side?

It's Andy Cole!!

A dark figure followed, and he waved his right leg without hesitation. The football was instantly hit and turned towards the goal.

Andy Cole's shot was not very high, but his strength was strong enough. In addition, it was unexpected that Liverpool goalkeeper Renner was difficult to react. The only thing he did was to take the central enterprise's own arm and then watch the football fly into the net from his hand.

“g!!!!!!”

"Andy Cole!!!"

"3:0! The game can be announced early, and Andy Cole helped Manchester City score the third goal!" (To be continued.)
