Liverpool's attack has become sharp because they can find a gap in Chelsea's defence!
This gap is Ashley Cole's flank.
When Camero gave the ball to Gerrard, Gerrard pretended to give the ball to Glen Johnson who stayed on the front wing and didn't go back, Ashley Cole's defensive focus changed significantly. He tended to directly compress Glen Johnson's ball control space, and then handed Gerrard to Mikel for defense.
But Mikel was also confused by Gerrard's passing and was ready to withdraw from the middle to block other Liverpool players!
As a result, Gerrard went straight across the oblique spike to the right in front of the penalty area.
Facing defender Cahill, Gerrard put the ball straight into the right rib of the penalty area.
Suarez slanted into the running position and had to start shooting as soon as he touched the ball. David Louis immediately raised his legs to block it. Unexpectedly, Suarez made a fake shot the next second!
Suarez pushed the ball one step further towards the baseline, and then sent it out with a cross.
Gareth bell quickly encircled the area in front of the goal. Just when he wanted to grab a shot, Ramirez returned to the defense in place and scooped up the ball first. Cech was surprised when he looked at the football flying in the face. Ramirez scooped the ball!
Cech subconsciously took off to save. Fortunately, the football was higher than the beam, but he was still in a cold sweat!
Not only him, but all the Blues fans at the scene were numb!
“OMG! Ramirez almost made an own goal!
But if he doesn't tackle, Gareth bell will be able to put the ball into the goal!
Liverpool almost scored in this attack. They began to play more penetrating!
The blues and Chelsea are still using their tenacious defense to resist the attack of Liverpool! "
Benitez is lost in thought on the sidelines. Liverpool's tactical adjustment is not targeted, but has brought up the rhythm of Chelsea. He should think about ways to deal with it.
In the 57th minute of the game, Liverpool played the attack to the front right again. Glen Johnson received the pass from kutinho on the side. This time, Mikel threw himself very hard and directly pulled the side to help defend and close down, probably handing over the middle to Lampard and Ramirez.
Glen Johnson immediately passed the ball short to Gerrard, who then passed the ball back obliquely. Eriksson, who followed up, took two steps to advance the ball. Lampard rushed for a close attack, Ramirez stared at cutinho, and Eriksson calmly sent the ball short to the middle of the restricted area.
Suarez took a small step back to the ball, then passed the ball, but turned around with the ball under his feet!
This is Cruyff's turn fake!
Neutral fans in the Amsterdam Arena applauded excitedly. Cahill and David Louis didn't expect Suarez to suddenly pull the ball and turn around because of the pressure. They were confused by his fake passing!
Suarez protected the ball, turned and then moved forward, which has formed a single knife advantage!
At this time, goalkeeper Cech left the goal in a hurry, but Suarez rubbed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!
Suarez turned around after the goal, opened his arms and ran along the sideline with a smile to celebrate!
Red Army fans in the stands of Amsterdam Arena waved flags and cheered wildly!
Situ Yunbing nodded slightly and then breathed out a deep breath.
After equalizing the score, the little tension in his heart disappeared.
"Suarez single shot! What a wonderful Cruyff turned around!
Cahill and David Louis were completely deceived by Suarez's fake action!
But this time it was obvious that Chelsea had a flaw in the middle defence in order to protect Ashley Cole's defence. Liverpool gave Suarez a chance after a simple pass in the middle.
Liverpool played more targeted in the second half. Compared with trying to create threats from all aspects in the first half, Liverpool benefited a lot from the right attack in the second half!
The score became 1-1 and Chelsea's lead disappeared! "
Benitez shook his head slightly on the sidelines. Liverpool are really better now than when he was in charge because they have a cunning manager!
Before the kick-off, Benitez made a gesture to the team, expecting the team to play more on the right in the counterattack, rather than looking for Azar!
If you place all your hopes on Azar, there will be no unexpected effect of any attack. It means that the opponent knows that you want to hit a left hook and has already taken preventive measures. You have to try countless times. Isn't that a trap?
And he let Torres take over in the counter attack, which is to see that the biggest flaw in Liverpool's defense is Robertson!
This flaw did not exist in the first half, because Glen Johnson participated in assists in the front court for a long time in the second half, which led to Skrtel getting closer to Azar to control Azar's threat.
Can benatia block all the other areas alone?
no way!
On the premise that benatia itself has been unable to support Robertson, whether Robertson is alone or in the middle, at least the space on the right is absolutely available in Chelsea's counterattack!
Situ Yunbing's tactics in the second half were more misleading and inducing Chelsea, inducing them to bet all their bets on Azar, misleading them to see the situation at hand.
It can be said that Liverpool successfully brought a wave of rhythm and successfully put Chelsea into a passive position.
Benitez can't guarantee that his adjustment is absolutely correct, but at least he should try.
To his surprise, Chelsea's attack still focused on Azar!
His on-the-spot command did not work, or Chelsea ignored his command as a whole.
Maybe in the eyes of those players in the middle and back of Chelsea, Azar is the real hope, not Torres!
They have pinned their hopes on Torres countless times, but most have been disappointed!
As for Benitez, they may never place their hopes on him. The former Liverpool manager wants the team to give more opportunities to the former Liverpool striker?
Azar's goal in the first half has proved that he is in good shape today. He doesn't need to create a threat every time he controls the ball, but even if he succeeds once after five or six failures, one goal is enough!
Isn't that Chelsea's original winning philosophy?
It doesn't need too many goals to fight back comfortably, as long as you can beat your opponent.
But when Azar fell into the defensive trap of Liverpool again and again, Torres could not win the trust of his teammates even if he proved that he was in good shape in the first half, this Chelsea had obviously torn from the inside!
In the team, the contradictions between the dressing room and the manager are finally silently displayed at the critical moment with heavy pressure!
In the 76th minute of the game, Liverpool were still firmly attacking from the right!
Mikel lost the ball in the past, leading to a larger space in the middle, which gave Liverpool a chance to pass and cut, so he stayed honestly in the front right of the restricted area, and Ashley Cole was alone under the repeated impact from Steven Gerrard and Glen Johnson.
Ashley Cole, who is old and declining, has been very stable for most of the time, but what the defender fears most has happened!
He made a mistake!
He threw too hard at Gerrard in a robbery, resulting in the use of space behind him!
Gerrard sent a short pass, Glen Johnson cut the ball from the outside into the restricted area, Ashley Cole turned back and chased, but he slipped and fell to the ground!
Cahill, Mikel and Lampard went together to snipe Glen Johnson, forming a tight encirclement.
But Glen Johnson was very aware of the current situation and hit the ball obliquely back to the top right corner of the restricted area line.
Gerrard is here to start and cross!
The football drew a beautiful arc over the Chelsea restricted area and fell to the back of the goal!
At this time, it seems that people can remember that when he first entered the England team, he occasionally replaced Beckham in the right wing avant-garde, which also performed well.
Chelsea's defenders will focus more on the middle and right rib of the restricted area.
When Gerrard's Cross was hoisted into the back of the penalty area, that is, the hinterland of the left rib, the Chelsea generals looked back and saw Gareth bell hit it!
Only in times of crisis can you show your true colors!
Gareth bell may not have played his famous stunt today, but he has always been patient and calm, and takes every opportunity seriously.
When the football fell in front of him, he rushed to the top and smashed the ball into the near corner of the goal with his forehead!
Cech quickly moved to make a flying save. Although his fingertips touched the football, he failed to completely change the trajectory of the football flying into the goal!
The football ran into the near corner of the goal!
Gareth bell turned and rushed to the corner flag area, took off his shirt, fell to the ground and shouted!
Great sage!
Liverpool fans in the stands of Amsterdam Arena were ecstatic, waving their fists and cheering hysterically!
Situ Yunbing turned and rushed to the Liverpool coaching team. He jumped hard and was hugged by everyone!
"Gareth bell header! Assists from Steven Gerrard!
Liverpool finished the second half of the game!
Ashley Cole had a huge problem in defense this time. He didn't succeed in pressing forward Steven Gerrard. He turned back to catch up with defensive Glen Johnson, but he fell down. When Glen Johnson calmly knocked the ball back to Steven Gerrard, Chelsea's defensive forces had been attracted to the right rib of the forbidden area, and Steven Gerrard's accurate cross was wonderful!
Gareth Bell's header was wonderful!
Liverpool's hopes of winning the title are greatly increased!
Can Chelsea equalize the score before the end of the 90 minute regular time? "
Benitez was expressionless.
Sorrow is no greater than death.
