Chapter 690 Chapter 2
Once Liverpool's new jersey sponsorship fee was announced, it immediately aroused huge discussions.
The sense of honor of Liverpool fans is also rapidly inflated, because Liverpool's annual jersey sponsorship fee of up to 350 million euros makes Liverpool surpass the annual contract of 900 million euros (approximately 350 million pounds) signed by Manchester United and Nike. Become the team with the highest shirt sponsorship income among Premier League clubs.
Even with the minimum payment, you can get sponsorship fees worth 500 million pounds per year.
(Neither Liverpool nor Valiant Sports have released a deduction agreement.)
After getting this jersey sponsorship contract, plus the annual jersey chest advertising contract of 2000 million pounds signed with Standard Chartered Bank, Liverpool will earn at least 500 million pounds in jersey revenue every season. Everyone feels that Liverpool is rising.
Levi also gave himself a rare long vacation, and took Emilia Clarke to the Maldives for three days before returning to the club.
Of course, Li Wei is not a hedonist. The reason why he travels carelessly is because of the race schedule.This period of time is the FA Cup and the League Cup. Unfortunately, Liverpool are out of both cups, so their next league game will be held [-] days after the end of the game against Real Madrid.
On the other hand, Liverpool's next match against Real Madrid will take place on the sixth day after the first leg, with no league assignments interspersed.Li Wei is now full of confidence in Real Madrid. In fact, whoever has four goal difference advantages, he will also be full of confidence.
During this period of time, the team's training Li Wei had already formulated it with the coaching staff.
In fact, there is not much that needs to be formulated, because the tactical core of the game against Real Madrid is very simple, which is to defend and counterattack!
…………
Time passed quickly, and soon came the night of April [-]th... In the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals, Real Madrid played against Liverpool at home.
When Li Wei played, he was booed at the highest decibel level in the Bernabéu stadium. Obviously, this Chinese coach has been included in the list of the most unpopular Real Madrid fans.
In the second round of the game, Real Madrid made a lot of adjustments from the previous game.
Kaka returned to the starting position, left back Marcelo replaced Di Maria's position, forward to the left forward position.Obviously Mourinho's idea for this game is very simple, a long pass, and C Ronaldo and Adebayor will compete for the header and score the goal.
Everyone knows in this game that Liverpool will definitely not rush out foolishly to fight with Real Madrid. They will play defensive counterattacks and even use the bus-positioning tactics that Mourinho is familiar with.
Before the game, Liverpool announced the starting lineup, which also allowed everyone to determine Liverpool's tactical thinking.
Liverpool made a lot of adjustments in this game and the previous one.
Liverpool no longer play the tactic of three midfielders, they play the familiar 4-4-2 of the English team.
之所以不选择这个赛季利物浦经常使用的4-3-1-2或者4-3-3战术，原因很简单。
4-4-2 is the most even formation, with two players at centre-back, two players on the wing (full-back and wing-midfielder), two players in midfield, and two players at forward!
Except for the goalkeeper who can only be one person, the number of people in each area is very average.
Therefore, many people also think that 4-4-2 is the most offensive and defensive formation, and it is also the most mediocre formation.However, this formation has gradually become a mainstream formation since England won the World Cup in 1966, and it still shows strong vitality until now. There is no sign that it will be discarded as an outdated thing. Naturally, it has its own uniqueness. Charm - he can play infinite changes.
4-4-2 Because there is enough space, he will not be fixed. He can play long passes, play iron barrel formations, and even play without front tactics.
Liverpool's 4-4-2 this time is playing a defensive counterattack.
The two full-backs are Lallana and Bale. Both of them have excellent running ability. They can fully cooperate with Yaya Touré and Moussa Sissoko to strangle Real Madrid's offense. Levi chose Suarez and Sturridge to partner. These two will become a pair of fearsome strikers in the Premier League in the future.
…………
Real Madrid's offensive is as overwhelming as the Bernabeu's voice.
They launched a very threatening attack in only the first 3 minutes.
Kaka and Adebayor hit the wall and broke into the penalty area. Kaka immediately rubbed a shot from the far corner near ten yards in front of the goal. Neuer reacted quickly and fell to the ground to catch the football.
In the 9th minute, Real Madrid threatened Liverpool again.After Kaka passed three people in a row, he suddenly kicked the ball through, and Adebayor caught up with the football at high speed.Neuer came to the rescue again, he rushed out of the penalty area and made a successful tackle.
Mangala who rushed back did not dare to be careless, and quickly kicked the ball out of the sideline.
Real Madrid's offense is sharper than Levi imagined.
A little bit of time passed, Real Madrid's offense was like a tide, but the tide of Real Madrid hit a reef called Neuer.
In the first half, Real Madrid took a total of thirteen shots against the goal of Liverpool. Except for some shots that were not within the range of the goal frame, four of them hit the target, and there was one single-handed goal that did not have time to shoot. It was resolved by Neuer.
Therefore, the Spanish commentator also had to sigh: "If it weren't for Neuer, Real Madrid would be 3:0 or 4:0 Liverpool now!"
…………
In the second half, Li Wei took the lead in making changes after changing sides and fighting again.
Liverpool stepped up their attack.
Li Wei's idea is very simple. Although Neuer performed bravely, no goalkeeper can keep an opponent clean, especially this team is Real Madrid.Therefore, Li Wei decided to use offense to contain Real Madrid's energy.
A team's energy is limited, and if more energy is put on defense, the offensive power will naturally be weakened.
I don't want Liverpool to score another goal before C Ronaldo exploded.
In the minute, Khedira made a cross from the midfielder. After getting the ball, C. Ronaldo shot with his right foot 35 meters away from the goal. Although Neuer touched the football, C. Ronaldo's shot was too powerful. After refraction in Neuer's hand, he still flew into the gate, 1:0!
This is Ronaldo's sixth goal in the Champions League this season, the No. 40 goal in all competitions this season.
Two minutes later, Bell was shoveled to the ground by Marcelo. Although the referee showed Marcelo a yellow card, the team doctor told Bell that he could not continue the game.Li Wei was still so angry that he kicked the water bottle next to him away, and he also got a topaz card from the referee.
Bell was injured, which completely disrupted Liverpool's offensive plan.In Levi's offensive plan, Bell is a very critical part.
Li Wei had to change the plan, and the team still strengthened their defense.
He replaced Bell with Vidal, but the team didn't play a three-back midfielder. Levi asked Moussa Sissoko to play a full-back.He remembered that Moussa Sissoko played as a full-back in the national team. Although his offensive contribution was not very good, Moussa Sissoko has good physical strength, strong running ability up and down, and strong defense , performing quite well.For this reason, when Moussa Sissoko could not get the main position in Tottenham Hotspur, he was able to get a lot of opportunities to play in the talented French national team.
Moussa Sissoko's performance did not disappoint Li Wei. Although Moussa Sissoko did not make any contribution on offense, he cooperated with Felipe Luis to completely limit Real Madrid's right-sided attack on defense.
