Chapter 1308 Evolution

Although it is not the first time for Liverpool to fight a tough battle, Liverpool still has no good way to deal with the iron barrel formation.After all, this is a problem in world football. Apart from long-range shots, set kicks, and individual players' breakthroughs, Liverpool has no good solutions.

Liverpool has two masters Gerrard and Pirlo for set kicks, but I don't know if it is a physical problem in this game. Gerrard is not in a good state.Although Pirlo's pass was good, the defensive players on the opposite side of Everton seemed to be excited today, and Pirlo had no way to assist his teammates to break through the opponent's goal.

As for direct free kicks, this idea is good. The problem is that even if it is a free kick master, it is impossible to directly endanger the opponent's goal every free kick.

In terms of long passes, although Liverpool desperately sent ammunition into Everton's penalty area, and Lewandowski himself worked very hard, but there was no way to score.

Liverpool's offense was misfired, but Everton did not blindly strengthen their offense. They still held their breath, stood in a good position and waited for Liverpool to attack before counterattacking.They are very satisfied with the current score, even if Liverpool equalize later, they can accept the result of the draw.

Everton's head coach Martinez looked like he was sure of winning, sitting on the coach's bench and talking and laughing with the assistant coach.

The stalemate is the time when Liverpool's patience is tested the most. If they lose their composure at this time, make mistakes, and are scored by Everton, they may fall into a bottomless abyss and have no chance to save themselves.

With Everton's defensive formation intact and their positions well established, to penetrate their defense requires not only a large number of offensive troops, but also tacit running positions and fast and accurate passing. These are not impossible for Liverpool type it out.But Liverpool have far fewer chances of success than mistakes, and once they make a mistake, it is a quick counterattack from Everton.In terms of probability, Liverpool's chances of scoring are less than Everton's, which also makes Liverpool dare not take risks.

At this time, someone in Liverpool must stand up. As for who stands up, it must be the most responsible after the loss.

In the 601st minute of the game, Gerrard and Lewandowski raised their hands for the ball almost at the same time. One of them is the captain of the team, and he should even be called the team soul.The other is Liverpool's main striker this season, and they are paid the top salary in the team. They must stand up and take responsibility.

After all, Gerrard is the soul of Liverpool's team, and Liverpool's players are more willing to trust him. When the two raised their hands for the ball at the same time, Pirlo, who was holding the ball in midfield, chose to pass the football to Gerrard.

Gerrard's position at this time has been pushed to the front midfielder, and it is impossible for him to control the ball calmly in this position.Barry posted it decisively. The two were once teammates of the national team, and even good friends.

It was once reported that Gerrard strongly recommended Barry and persuaded the club to sell Alonso and buy Barry to form a midfield partner with Gerrard.

Who would have thought that Alonso was gone, Barry did not come to Liverpool, but went to Manchester City instead.And when Barry went to Manchester City, the next stop was not Liverpool, but Liverpool's city rival Everton.

Barry posted it immediately, and Gerrard couldn't easily turn around.After all, he is no longer the kid in his twenties. No matter how well he is maintained, his body function will inevitably decline, especially in terms of speed. Can rely on experience to play football.

Gerrard had no choice but to pass the ball back to Modric.

Modric approached Lewandowski, but the football was cut off by Everton.

The Everton players are shrewd. They didn't arrange for many Everton players to follow Lewandowski, but the Everton players were all on guard against Liverpool players passing the ball to Lewandowski.

The ball was sent by Everton's defenders to the feet of Miralas, who was defending deep back.

Seeing Gerrard rushing towards him, Miralas pretended to make a long pass, then dunked suddenly, passed Gerrard, and dribbled forward quickly.

Gerrard couldn't let Miralas lead the way. He tripped Miralas from behind and was shown a yellow card by the referee Atkinson.

Miralas sent a free kick, Everton's left-back Baines suddenly went forward and caught Liverpool by surprise. Baines didn't make a bottom pass. He made a 45-degree cross and passed the football into the penalty area. .

Lukaku jumped high in the penalty area. Although Varane defended hard this time, there was nothing he could do. Dare, a small foul was used, but it didn't seem to have any effect. It could only allow Lukaku to press himself with a header.

When seeing Lukaku's header, Liverpool fans and players almost thought that their gate was about to concede again.

Fortunately, at this time, Courtois stood up and rubbed the football with his fingers.

Lukaku's attack hit a dead corner, but Courtois hit the football on the crossbar and bounced back into the penalty area.

Without waiting for the Everton players to attack for the second time, Manolas has already destroyed the football out of the bottom line.He would rather give Everton a corner than risk possession.

"Phew!" Seeing that the football was destroyed beyond the bottom line, the Liverpool fans let out a long breath and put their hearts in their stomachs. It was not an ordinary thrill just now.

However, Liverpool's problems are still very serious. Gerrard can't start the situation, and Lewandowski is locked up. What should Liverpool do?

They are still 0:1 behind Everton!
In the second minute of game No.70, Li Wei made the first substitution adjustment in the whole game.

Pirlo goes off and Fernandinho goes on.

But this adjustment is not a counterpoint adjustment, but Modric pushes to the position of the front midfielder, and Gerrard and Fernandinho partner with double midfielders.

Levi made Modric the core of Liverpool's attack!
This also makes many people puzzled by Levi's adjustment.

Sky TV commentator: "Levy has no problem replacing Pirlo, but why is Fernandinho replaced instead of Hazard? Hazard can use his breakthrough and pass control to help Liverpool strengthen their offense !"

Foreign commentator: "Push Modric to the front midfielder position. Can he complete Levi's arrangement in this position? I think Modric's better position is not the front midfielder, but the organization and scheduling in the backcourt. Assisting his teammates to defend, taking the ball to break through and shooting from the position of the midfielder is not what Modric is good at. Could it be that Hazard is injured and unable to play?"
