Coach, I want to play football!

Fabregas thought the same thing, and quickly put the ball at his feet. He wanted to kick the ball out with a quick kick, but was blocked by Wijnaldum who came back.

However, at this time, the referee Mike Dean's whistle sounded urgently. It was not that someone committed a foul, but that he was about to show a yellow card.

In this case, it is obviously not suitable for a quick free kick.

Mike Dean showed Henderson a yellow card, and Henderson did not complain. He just turned his head to see if his teammates on the back line were in position.

Zhan Jun: "This is a tactical foul. Henderson blocked Chelsea's possible counterattack at the cost of a yellow card."

Liu Yue nodded: "This yellow card is worth it, because once Fabregas passes the ball, the opponent's three-on-three frontcourt will be very dangerous."

It's said to be three-on-three, but if Fabregas passed the ball long to the back, and then Hazard went up to it with his explosiveness and speed, it would probably be a one-on-one shot.

Zhan Jun: "This is the first yellow card received by both sides since the start of the game. It occurred in the 39th minute and was obtained by Henderson for a tactical foul."

Ye Qi felt very uncomfortable because today his opponent was guarding him too closely. The opponent's three central defenders plus Kanter who was returning to defend, totaling four people.

Every time I get the ball or want to receive the ball, two or three people from the opponent often come up.

Mainly because of Kanter, this guy has excellent grasp of passing routes and timing of shots.

Now Ye Qi feels the pressure of his opponents when they faced Kanter's defense last season.

When he was in Leicester City, Ye Qi understood that he and Vardy could be so unscrupulous in the frontcourt because of Kante in the backcourt. They believed that the opponent's counterattack was unlikely to easily get past Kante.

And at that time, Kanter was often accompanied by drinking god Linkwater, making the defense even more impregnable.

But today, Ye Qi had a new understanding of this.

Klopp on the sidelines pointed angrily behind Ye Qi, indicating that several times when Ye Qi picked up the ball or received the ball, he had no teammates around him to respond.

This results in Ye Qi often fighting alone, and Kanter is often able to cut off the connection between Ye Qi and his teammates.

Klopp signaled that Wijnaldum should go back and go up, and Henderson's position should also be better.

At the same time, Firmino and Mane also need to cut inside and move along the ribs, so as to cut through the opponent's three-centre-back system.

But these tactical adjustments on the sidelines are difficult to fully convey to the court. He can only tell his players through gestures.

Everything still has to wait until halftime.

The game continued later, and Wijnaldum really came forward. After Ye Qi got the ball, he had one more option to play the ball.

At the same time, Henderson, who was behind Wijnaldum, also came up.

In the 42nd minute, after changing sides, Firmino received the transfer ball from Henderson on the right, but instead of going down, he passed the ball to Klein who came up from the wing and followed him in. .

Chelsea left wing back Alonso thought that Klein was going to get the ball, so he looked at the outside of the defense.

But Klein, who had the ball, suddenly cut inside and followed Firmino!

Fabregas came to help, but Klein and Firmino in front of him played a one-two and penetrated the Spanish midfielder.

After regaining the ball, Klein suddenly made a straight line under the ribs and stopped cutting in!

This not only made Alonso follow closely, but also the shaggy-haired central defender David Luiz came over.

Lewis put his hands behind his back, keeping an eye on the inside and not giving Klein a chance to go inside. At the same time, he was also wary of the opponent passing the ball. If the opponent wanted to pass the ball, he would jump to intercept it.

Klein quickly got down and passed the ball.

But instead of giving it to Ye Qi in the middle, it will give it to Henderson at the back point on this side!

Because Firmino's movement and Klein's dribbling put a lot of distance between the Chelsea defenders on this side, there was no opposing defender in Henderson's position the first time he received the ball.

The position was too far outside, so Kanter did not go up in order to keep an eye on Ye Qi in the middle.

After getting the ball, Henderson shot the ball directly from his ribs at an angle of 45 degrees and passed it directly into the penalty area!

Zhan Jun: "Henderson...pass the ball!!"

Ye Qi first took two steps back, then suddenly jumped forward!

In the end, he was stunned to beat Chelsea's fierce captain John Terry to win the header. Terry was in front of him and Kante was behind him.

Facing this high ball pass, Kanter, who was less than 1.7 meters behind, did not even try to jump.

Ye Qi, who hit the ball, exerted force in his core, stabilized his body in mid-air and then headed the ball!

The ball flew towards the far post of the goal.

Zhan Jun: "Ye Qi!! The lion shakes his head!!"

Courtois reacts quickly. At 1.99 meters tall, Courtois has a long wingspan and excellent aerial control.

He stepped forward, jumped up and stretched his limbs. Finally, he was able to pounce Ye Qi's lion head flick with one palm in front of the goal line.

Zhan Jun: "Courtois!! The Belgian national goalkeeper has done a great job. He saved Ye Qi's very threatening header!!"

Liu Yue: "This goal is entirely due to Courtois. Ye Qi's header is already very good. He almost went to the blind corner but was saved by Courtois."

Zhan Jun shook his head and smiled: "Maybe this is why Chelsea should use him to succeed Cech. The successor of the goalkeeper will also become the goalkeeper!"

Ye Qi turned around and looked at this scene with some disbelief. The ball almost went straight to the dead center at the top of the far post. How could you save it? ?

Kanter stepped forward to receive the second point, but he knew that Mane was following behind him, so he did not dare to turn around with the ball.

You must know that this is our own penalty area. If the opponent intercepts the ball, it will be a threatening shot.

So he quickly twisted his body and kicked the ball out of the sideline with a big kick.

Zhan Jun: "Kante made a clearance!! The defense was watertight. In this case, the opponent was not even given a corner kick."

Liu Yue nodded: "Other players would have been nervous and would have just kicked the ball out of the baseline. After all, there is nothing wrong with it. But Kanter is so brave. He turned around and kicked the ball out of the sideline, giving the opponent a foul ball. No corner kick was given."

Ye Qi touched his head. He didn't expect that the opponent's goalkeeper played so well today and could save this header.

Zhan Jun: "You can't really blame Ye Qi for this ball. He has already hit it very well, but Courtois has the height and wingspan and his reaction is not slow, so he saved the ball."

Liu Yue nodded, "Yes, you must know that this ball seven headed the goal after Terry's interference. Both the angle and the force are very good."

"A little further and the ball would have hit the goalpost."

Zhan Jun: "Courtois is one man who can't open it today! He defused the shot that can be said to be the closest to a goal for Liverpool since the beginning of the game."

Kurt got up and patted Kanter's small buttocks, indicating that the rescue was beautiful.
