Chapter 77 Anfield, So What ([-])

The Anfield Road Stand can provide about 9000 visiting team fans with seats to watch the game.The two clubs, Liverpool and Arsenal, have a good relationship. Although it is now an important battle for the league title, they still left the entire stand for Arsenal for fans from afar from London.

In the locker room, the noise of the fans outside could be faintly heard.Shao Bo, looking at the relaxed expressions of the players, Shao Bo felt that he needed to give them something to stimulate their fighting spirit.Otherwise, why do the current Arsenal players feel like they are on a spring outing?
Shao Bo clapped his hands and caught the attention of the players.

"Guys, did you see what was written in the tunnel when we came to practice this morning?"

"This is Anfield! Boss, everyone who plays in England knows that."

"Yes, this is Anfield, but what's the matter? Do we need them to write it here to remind them? This is a stadium, and people say it? If Everton didn't think the rent was too high back then, Liverpool might not be here at all. It can’t be established! How many teams have won here, how many teams have won the league championship trophy here? Not to mention, let’s just talk about the season we started in 1988. Didn’t we win the league championship here in the end? Didn't Thomas' goal in the last 2 minutes reflect Arsenal's tenacious will to admit defeat? We won then, and now we will win!"

We still have to win!
Shao Bo's mouth was dry, but it was not without effect, at least he could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the locker room had changed, and the feeling of laziness had been repelled.Shao Bo expects these players to play at a [-]% level to play this game.

Since Liverpool is a beautiful football that focuses on pass control, so what if Arsenal play more conservatively?Liverpool played beautifully, but Arsenal just need to hold the penalty area and not give the opponent a chance to score.

Shao Bo sighed when he thought about the tactics he had arranged.Forget it, even if the scene is ugly, as long as you can win in the end.

Anyway, what the club wants now is only trophies, what Shao Bo pursues is only the contract, and what the fans value more is victory.

After all, with Bergkamp and Zola attacking in the frontcourt, the role of stars is that even if they only have one or two highlight performances in this game, it is enough to attract fans to watch.Anyway, Shao Bo is just pursuing victory now, it doesn't matter if he looks good or not.

However, even if the trio composed of Redknapp, McMaraman and Fowler has excellent skills and good-looking scenes, as long as they use the right tactics of restraint, they will not be able to break through Arsenal's defense.

Moreover, when Shao Bo looked at the statistics compiled by the scouts, he found that Liverpool's winning percentage was extremely low when they played against teams that focused on muscle fighting.The current Shaobo is to instill some of the training requirements of the Graham era into the players within this week, so that they can strengthen their defense.

Anyway, this method of formation in the backcourt is to make up for the defense, but with the addition of a defensive midfielder and a defensive midfielder, Shao Bo thinks it should be considered solid.

Before the game, the head coaches of the two teams were restrained and did not make any outrageous remarks. Now the two teams are competing for the league championship.In order to bring back the value of 6 points, both teams have to work hard!
Although the psychological war has certain effects, Shao Bo is not a lover of talking, and making enemies for no reason is not a good thing.Shao Bo got Liverpool's roster today very early. It really is Evans who takes the technical flow route. Now Liverpool is playing a very traditional 433.

Before reaching the end of the player tunnel, Shao Bo looked at the phrase "This is Anfield" above his head, and sneered silently, showing his white teeth.

Arsenal and Liverpool have faced each other twice this season, but in the last league match, Shao Bo has not yet signed a contract with the club.In the League Cup, Shao Bo even gave up the game altogether, and only young players were sent to play.Even if he lost, it was expected.

However, the media don't think much of it. Based on the comparison of the records of the two sides in recent years, they are still more optimistic about Liverpool, which is playing at home.But Shao Bo didn't say that this is a battle of revenge, what he wants to do, wait until he wins the game!

Shaking hands with Liverpool coach Evans, the two sides returned to their respective coaching seats.Shao Bo still respects this man who has dedicated his life to Liverpool, regardless of his team leadership achievements or competitors.I believe that everyone will attach great importance to the quality of loyalty.And Evans used his actual actions to prove that he is worthy of Liverpool's training for him.

In this game, Shao Bo's face was a little dignified since he left the locker room.After all, there are not many games left, and every next 3 points is extremely important.

Kick off!

Arsenal, who played away, got the ball after the referee flipped a coin.At the opening whistle, Bergkamp passed the ball back to Parlor, and Arsenal pushed forward as a whole, striding forward.

The cries from the kop were deafening, but Arsenal were slowly adapting.McMaraman was in a stalemate with Bergkamp, ​​and he made several moves without breaking the ball from the Dutchman's feet.At this time, the other Arsenal players were not idle either, they quickly ran to the penalty area.

Bergkamp looked at Overmars who was running fast forward on the sidewalk, without thinking too much, he passed the ball with one kick.

Overmars took two quick steps, caught the ball beautifully with his chest, accelerated quickly, and brought the ball to the penalty area.The defensive players are naturally not puppets standing on the ground, they are also running back to the area where they should be. However, although Ince saw Overmars rushing over, although Ince bravely ran over, he didn't even touch the corner of the opponent's clothes. None of them came across.

After Overmars saw Ince approaching, he seemed to rush towards him in a daze, but in fact, the two passed by. Ince wanted to stretch out his foot to steal the ball, but stepped on it null!And he was busy stealing the ball, and he didn't bother to pull Overmars.

Entered the restricted area!Overmars didn't think much of it. On the edge of the penalty area, after seeing goalkeeper David James rushing out, Overmars chose not to shoot directly.With a strong right leg, the ball is passed to Zola, who is running rapidly in the middle.

The same name is "David", this James is not as good as Seaman.As the goalkeeper of the national team, Seaman became famous much earlier than David James.

Moreover, David James, who had high hopes, did not inherit the goalkeeper halo of the club's legendary goalkeeper Grobila as the Red Army wanted. Many mistakes made him almost kicked out until he was lucky enough to save a penalty kick from Arsenal in 93. , Only then did he keep his main force position.

Moreover, Liverpool's achievements in the 90s have been difficult to talk about. Among them, it is unknown how much role David James, the goalkeeper, played in it.

However, Liverpool is not without talents. Before Zola received the ball, Matt had already run to the edge of the penalty area. When he saw the passing route, he directly intercepted the ball and passed it to his teammates, eliminating the threat.

What a pity!Shao Bo didn't sigh. At this time, his face was unusually indifferent, with no regrets or other expressions.Just put your hands on your chest, fingers interlocked.This has already revealed Shao Bo's nervousness. Liverpool has a strong reputation, how dare Shao Bo not take it seriously?

And because in the original time and space, Arsenal clearly lost the game.This game has also been included in Chinese textbooks, and has been studied by an unknown number of people.Just like all events that have a major impact on history, under the influence of historical inertia, this kind of competition that has formed a major influence will definitely be "taken care of" by historical restraint.

Just like the pass from Overmars just now, he can choose to pass or shoot.It's just that he chose to pass the ball to Zola, who was in a better position. What if he chose to shoot?Maybe it will be hit by the goalkeeper, maybe it will hit the door frame, maybe it will just fly away...

The law of cause and effect is hard for an ordinary football club to defy, and that penalty will still happen.Even though Arsenal is now at the top of the list, as long as there are a few subsequent crashes, Shao Bo can only accept the fate of the Europa League.However, Shao Bo's previous smooth sailing has lost the protection of the system, and now he can only rely on his own strength to fight!

Redknapp, who received a pass from his teammate, was naturally undisturbed at home. He dunked lightly and fooled Vieira with a simple fake move.After that, a simple through pass passed the ball to Fowler's feet, but at this time there was no shortage of defensive players around Fowler.Adams saw the ball passing quickly across the turf, and hurriedly fell to the ground with a shovel and blocked the ball with his body.

To put it simply, Arsenal was already extremely dangerous at the time.

Shao Bo let out a breath. This was Liverpool's first counterattack and almost scored, which made him terrified.In other words, shouldn't they be slowly controlling and pushing forward slowly?This is not the same as what the intelligence said, it is not scientific!

But fortunately, this attack was stopped by Adams and did not threaten the goalkeeper.But when Fowler faced the goalkeeper alone, the goal was not far away.

Shao Bo not only let the goalkeeper practice saves alone, he let the goalkeeper and defenders train together.No matter how good the goalkeeper is, it is impossible to defend the opponent's non-stop shots alone in a game.On the contrary, if the goalkeeper and defender can deepen their understanding and tacit understanding, David Seaman will not have to fall to the ground to catch the ball at all.

But in the end, Adams couldn't control the ball, and the ball rolled to the side. Fortunately, Keown arrived in time and passed the ball back to the midfield, which relieved the threat.
