Volume 1: The Hero Appears, People Pay Attention Chapter 202 The Continuous Goal Begins (Second Update, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)
Chen Yingxiong's unreasonable and domineering goal sounded the clarion call for Liverpool's attack. While breaking away from Valencia's defensive line, it also loosened the determination and fighting spirit of the Valencia players - We are all behind, is it still necessary to hold on?
In the opinion of Valencia coach Emery, it is necessary to continue to hold on. Because when two teams have the same points, first compare the winning and losing relationships between the two teams. If the winning and losing relationships are the same, compare the goal difference between the two teams. In terms of goal difference, Valencia currently has one goal, while Liverpool has lost one goal. [..com]
Valencia still has the upper hand.
But his players are obviously not as foresighted as the head coach. As soon as I saw that my team was lagging behind, I began to think about such a tangled question: "Is there still hope if we continue to defend like this?"
As a result, the psychological defense line has become loose, and I cannot go all out when defending. They always think about whether they should attack? Maybe the offense can even the score? If we take an offensive stance, maybe Liverpool won't be so arrogant, they will shrink back, and we will have more shooting opportunities...
And so on.
So in order to stop them from being so entangled.
Liverpool scored another goal before the end of the first half, completely dispelling their and Emery's thoughts of looking forward and backward.
In the 37th minute, Gerrard's long shot penetrated the goal guarded by goalkeeper Alves for the second time.
The 2:0 lead gave Liverpool an advantage, and they also tied Valencia in terms of goal difference between the two sides. If there is a tie in terms of outcome and goal difference, it depends on the number of away goals. Liverpool has one away goal, Valencia has none. Therefore, if this is the score, Valencia has no chance to compete with Liverpool. With the same points, their ranking is definitely below Liverpool.
At halftime, Emery said to the dejected players: "Okay, put aside the fantasy. Let's play this game first, gentlemen. First of all, we can't let them shave our heads like this, we have to score goals." . Secondly, the defense cannot be messy. We must insist on defensive counterattacks and cannot press forward just because we are eager to score. You have all seen how powerful Liverpool is. It will only be a disastrous defeat!"
Emery is rethinking his strategy. On the other side, Martin O'Neill also put forward his own requirements for the second half - now he has the time and opportunity to explain to the players how to break Valencia's intensive defense: "Valencia will definitely attack in the second half, but they will not give up. Defense, because they don't want to lose too badly - they also want to compare with other teams on goal difference. They will definitely use defensive counterattacks... pay attention to their offensive and defensive transitions, their offensive and defensive transitions are very fast, not too slow. Be careful and they may hit you in a well-known area..."
How does the team defend the opponent's tactical arrangement? Chen Yingxiong usually doesn't listen because it has nothing to do with him. He just needs to score goals. As a player, Chen Yingxiong’s task is the simplest, but it may also be the most difficult...
※※※
After the start of the second half, Valencia stabilized its position and began its counterattack against Liverpool.
Because Liverpool already knew how Valencia would deal with them, the defense did not press forward and was cautious when attacking. First, ensure that the defense line is not in chaos.
Although Valencia was counterattacking, they were also wary of Liverpool's attack, so the defense did not dare to press forward.
If both teams are like this, the pace of the game will slow down.
The second half was obviously not as good as the first half.
Although it doesn't look good, Martin O'Neill doesn't care. As long as we can win.
Valencia was cautious and did not dare to press forward, and he was too lazy to press out to attack. Not conceding the ball was better than anything else.
Martin O'Neill is satisfied, but Chen Yingxiong may not be satisfied.
He only scored seven goals...note the word "talent". It would be another player. He scored seven goals in four UEFA Champions League group stage games. I am afraid he will smile crookedly and wake up from his dreams. But Chen Yingxiong was not satisfied. What are seven balls? Messi has also scored five goals in these three Champions League group matches. There is only two goals difference between the two sides. Chen Yingxiong does not dare to be careless and feels that the further away the better...
He kept looking for opportunities, but the pace of both sides slowed down in the second half. Valencia was forced, Liverpool took the initiative. As a result, Chen Yingxiong will naturally be provided with less support, and he will also have fewer shooting opportunities.
He was unable to score again until the end of the game.
No one scored a goal on either side of the game.
The final score was that Liverpool defeated Valencia 2:0 at home, which was revenge for Valencia's 3:1 defeat at home.
After the game. Chen Yingxiong looked slightly depressed. In Barcelona's Champions League match on the same day, Messi also scored again, and the gap between the two sides was only one goal.
Perhaps it was Chen Yingxiong's performance that inspired Messi. Messi is also in very good form on the court this season, especially in the Champions League. Six goals were scored in four group matches, which is also a very scary goal efficiency.
The competition between the two super shooters is getting more and more intense...

After the game against Valencia, Chen Yingxiong will return to the league game.
In the twelfth round of the league, Liverpool played against the newly promoted West Bromwich Albion at home.
There was no suspense in such a game. Liverpool played at home and it was unlikely to lose to West Bromwich Albion.
In fact, there was no suspense. Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in the game, helping the team beat West Bromwich Albion 4:0 at home. Although he only scored one goal and was not the protagonist of this game. But this was his third consecutive goal. He is steadily moving towards his mission goal.
Whether it is Chen Yingxiong, or the previous Van Nistelrooy, or Liverpool's legendary shooter John Aldridge, the consecutive scoring records created are all cross-seasons. Van Nistelrooy scored in a maximum of eight consecutive games in a single season, and Aldridge scored in a maximum of nine games in a single season.
Chen Yingxiong's craziest season. He only scored in eight consecutive rounds at the end of the season.
No one has ever scored ten consecutive goals in a single season in the history of the English top league, let alone fourteen consecutive games... Chen Yingxiong is really going to challenge a limit this time!
But so far no one knows what Chen Yingxiong is going to do, and he has not told anyone. This is a task to prove that he can be the core of Liverpool's trust. He doesn't want to tell others that he doesn't want to rely on the help of his teammates, because that will make him feel that it is not Liverpool that relies on him, but he relies on Liverpool. He wants to do this alone, without any help from outside forces.
Of course. He doesn't mind normal passes and assists. He just doesn't want to become like the 30 goals he scored in the Europa League last season, when the whole team supported him one-sidedly and even sacrificed themselves to help him.
In this way, even if he completed the task, those media and the bitches would probably have something to say.
Since it is to be done. Then make an indisputable result, so that all those who are deliberately picking bones in eggs will have nothing to say!

In the League Cup, Liverpool was eliminated in the fourth round. This time Chen Yingxiong was not able to start. He scored two goals after coming on the bench, but it was too late.
In the end, Liverpool was eliminated by Tottenham Hotspur 4:2 away.
Chen Yingxiong was very unwilling to lose the League Cup. O'Neill seemed indifferent. His goal this season is to strive to make a major breakthrough in the league, and the League Cup, a useless game, is naturally abandoned. So he played with the second team in this game. If Chen Yingxiong hadn't kept asking to play on the sidelines. He might not have let Chen Yingxiong play as a substitute in the end.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong, who came on as a substitute, scored two goals like crazy... Unfortunately, because the gap was too big before, Chen Yingxiong alone was powerless to change the result.
Losing the League Cup can allow O'Neill to lead the team to play in the league with peace of mind-he even gave up the FA Cup.
Liverpool has won a lot of domestic competitions such as the League Cup and the FA Cup. Otherwise, how can people say that Liverpool is the "King of Cups"? Sometimes this title is actually a kind of ridicule and mockery, mocking Liverpool's poor performance in the league.
So O'Neill pays more attention to the league.
Chen Yingxiong's ideas are different from O'Neill's. Of course, he also pays attention to the league, but he thinks that the League Cup and the FA Cup are also important. He also wants to win them. After all, he needs the championship honor very much now...
If he can make a decision, he hates that the whole team will not give up on any front and win the championship in any competition...But he also knows that this is his own delusion. Even if his physical fitness is fine, he can't stand the physical fitness of other teammates for so long.
Therefore, he was just a little depressed about losing the League Cup, and he didn't go to have a big fight with O'Neill.

The League Cup is gone, although Chen Yingxiong scored two goals. It didn't save the fate of the team. He was so angry that he had to vent his anger on the league.
On November 15, the first game of the 13th round of the league, Liverpool challenged Bolton away.
Chen Yingxiong played well in the game and performed a hat trick!
"Hat-trick! Hat-trick! Hat-trick! Yingxiong's second hat-trick this season!"
"A powerful long-range shot!"
"This is his 18th league goal this season! What a terrifying statistic! He has already scored 18 goals in just 13 rounds of the league! It seems that he was not bragging when he said at the beginning of the season that he would defend the title of the league's top scorer..."
"After scoring the goal, Yingxiong raised his head with a look of disdain and arrogance. But look at his goal statistics... He is really qualified to be arrogant!"
Teammate swarmed over and hugged Chen Yingxiong who had completed the hat-trick.
In the last game, Liverpool won 4:0 at home against West Bromwich Albion, and Chen Yingxiong only scored one goal, so he was not the protagonist. In this game, he stole all the limelight!
This is the style of Liverpool's top star! ! .
