Chapter 129 Fernando Torres! !

Chapter 129 Fernando Torres! !

Benitez was on the sidelines and now he has calmed down a little because now the game looks to be back to normal.

The first 30 minutes of the first half drove Benitez crazy, because his team was so passive - not on the scene, but Luton's strategy that made Liverpool very uncomfortable.

This also cost Liverpool two goals, which is of course a heavy price, so the expressions of Liverpool's players became solemn, and they did not have the ease before.

Benitez is watching his opponent.

The Spaniard thought he had paid enough attention to this team before the game, but when he didn't expect it, Gao Bo's team still let Benitez feel "surprise" - two big surprises.

So now Benitez has to re-examine his opponents.

Now Luton are defensive - they have two balls in their hands, so Benitez understands what they are doing.

The problem now is that Liverpool's attack has encountered a dilemma.

Liverpool were originally good at opening and closing long ball transfer attacks. The two wingers opened up the space, and then mobilized the opponent's defense through accurate long ball transfer, and then Torres took the ball on the weak side to create a threat.

Of course, Gerrard's attacking threat in the middle of midfield is also a pillar of Liverpool's attack.

But now both legs of Liverpool's attack seem to have been severed.

Xavi Alonso was stuck by Drinkwater, which made him unable to pass the long pass. What made Benitez even more unexpected was that Kante could really block Gerrard perfectly!

This kid is only seventeen years old, right? !

Benitez looked at Gerrard, who was holding the ball again, so that Gerrard could only be forced to pass back Kante.

In addition to the targeted deployment of Luton's core players against Liverpool, Luton's overall formation is what Benitez particularly appreciates.

Luton maintained an absolute numerical advantage on the ball side, and every Liverpool player with the ball seemed to face at least two or three defenders!

This makes it difficult for Liverpool to penetrate the attack. And the discipline and speed with which Luton's formations move is amazing! Their dense formation moved from left to right almost in seconds.

The synergy is very high! This is no longer an iron pass in the general sense, but a shield—a shield that can move flexibly left and right.

Benitez glanced at Gao Bo not far away.

Being able to come up with such a set of tactics shows that this Chinese has a certain level of understanding of football tactics!

Master Bei is very obsessed with the study of tactics, but now is not the time to study the opponent's tactics.

In the face of such an opponent, how to break the opponent's defense?

The success rate of the hard break in the middle is not high, and Benitez also saw the threat of Luton's counterattack. Adam White's speed is too fast, which makes Benitez have to defend.

After a dead ball, Benitez called Kuyt over, he explained a few words in Kuyt's ear, Kuyt nodded again and again, and then returned to the pitch.

Benitez also saw Kuyt's face-to-face interview with Gao Bo.

He immediately became nervous. What is the other party going to do now?

For Master Bei's on-the-spot tactical adjustment, Gao Bo had to pay attention anyway, but he didn't hear what Benitez was saying.

......

At this time, the camera came to Torres, Liverpool's number one striker.

Torres looked a little depressed. He didn't get much chance in this game. The Spanish golden boy was caught in the dense crowd in Luton, and he didn't even have much chance to touch the ball.

so far,

In the face of Luton's defense, Liverpool have not created any opportunities that are too threatening, which also led to Torres not showing any good performances.

One of the hottest strikers in football right now, Torres' first-half game all but disappeared.

Gao Bo didn't let anyone stare at Torres, but whether it was defending Xavi Alonso or defending Gerrard, it was basically to curb the connection between the two midfielders and Torres. .

After losing the midfield support, it is very difficult for Torres to play well.

Torres' rare possession of the ball was done from outside the box, but when Torres was out of the box, Luton's defenders were rude to him.

"Never let Torres have the chance to get the ball in the box! If he goes to the box to get the ball! The best way is to stick it on and make him unable to turn! Make him uncomfortable!! If he has any chance of turning and shooting, Put him on the ground!!"

Although Torres has no special person to take care of him, in fact, his defense is the top priority of Luton's game!

So in the pre-match deployment arrangements, the defense of Torres occupies a lot of space.

And at this moment, Torres suddenly pulled to the other side...

Gao Bo saw this scene on the sidelines. He was about to call attention to Torres when Kuyt suddenly passed the ball after receiving the ball on the right.

The football soars high and crosses the penalty area....

On the other side, Luton didn't have many defenders and Torres chested the ball down!

Without Gao Bo's reminder, Luton's formation moved quickly.

Kevin - Keane and right back Mitchell Piran rushed up at the same time!

"Torres has the ball in the box! He's facing Luton's goal directly!!" Letkinson stood up. "If I remember correctly, it was the first time Torres had the ball in the box and faced Luton head-on!!"

The Liverpool fans in the stands also began to look forward to it.

Torres stopped the ball, and then broke straight forward!

He first made a fake inward breakthrough, then quickly dunked the ball, dunked Mitchell Piran, and completed the breakthrough from the bottom line! !

This time, Luton's restricted area was a little flustered.

George Parker came in to defend Torres, while the other players were nervously looking for someone to defend.

Several Liverpool players rushed into the penalty area!

Such an opportunity was created for the first time in this game for Liverpool!

However, Torres, who broke into the small penalty area, didn't think about passing the ball at all. As a super shooter, although the angle of the assassin is very small, Torres still chose to shoot from a small angle! !

"Torres shot!!!!!!"

Letkinson shouted from the commentary.

When Torres received Kuyt's pass, Gao Bo was already very nervous looking at the penalty area.

After Torres finished the shot, Gao Bo covered his face with his hands.

Even if Claude was given a card with a 15% increase in the save success rate, he couldn't save the ball - this is an absolute dead end in the theoretical sense!

The ball hit the inside edge of the far post and bounced into the goal! !

"Fernando...Torres!!" and Letkinson chanted together, as well as tens of thousands of Liverpool fans!

After the goal, Torres opened his arms and ran at Wembley.

Gao Bo looked at the red No. 9 figure.

Yes, this is Torres, Torres who is at his peak! ! Just give him a little space...Luton's goal is lost.

The superstar's flash of inspiration helped Liverpool get a goal back!
