In the 26th round of the league, Liverpool faces West Brom at home.

Situ Yunbing is looking forward to a victory to allow the team to consolidate their advantages and start the European battle in the second half of the season!

But what surprised Situ Yunbing was that Liverpool's defense line was blown up today!

To be precise, West Brom completed the defensive counterattack well. Based on the tough defense, they relied on the young genius Lukaku, known as the little monster, to beat Scotter in the counterattack!

Lukaku made a contribution in the first and second half, while Liverpool had already hit the post and crossbar before falling behind two goals!

When the game came to 70 minutes, even some fans of the Reds in the Anfield stands seemed pessimistic, believing that the team's first home defeat was about to be born!

But Situ Yunbing actively dispatched troops and generals on the sidelines, changed to three defenders, and then took another Vardy!

Gareth Bale has little room for performance today. He was replaced early and Coutinho made his debut.

After strengthening long shots and grabbing opportunities in the penalty area, Liverpool's bombardment against West Brom in the last 20 minutes of the game showed crazy momentum.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Coutinho made a long shot outside the penalty area to create a save from West Brom goalkeeper Foster, and Vardy made a quick shot and sent the ball into the goal!

Liverpool scored a goal.

Liverpool, who had been attacking fiercely, repeatedly rushed to the West Brom's defense line amid the cheers of Reds fans throughout Anfield.

When the game came to injury stoppage time, Suarez received Mahrez's pick-up pass in the penalty area and headed the ball to the middle of the goal. Vardy stepped in the lead and headed the defender Richville headed in front of the goal. The football flew into the goal from above Foster's head!

Liverpool equalizes the score by buzzer!

All Liverpool fans at the scene were extremely excited. When they still expected the team to create a miracle of reversal, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game.

Situ Yun walked to shake hands with West Brom coach Clark after a post-match hand. For West Brom, a draw at Anfield Stadium can be regarded as a victory, but for Liverpool, it is definitely a result that is difficult for most people to accept.

The problem is being exposed little by little. Situ Yunbing currently has no good solution. Just like Scotter was beaten by Lukaku today, if it were the defenders of other giants, they would have a moment of misperforming or unable to defend their opponents. No matter how top defenders are, they will not make mistakes, because every player is a human.

What the giants do in defense is nothing more than improving the fault tolerance rate.

Better defensive concepts, stronger defensive systems, and defensive players with better personal abilities can all bring higher defensive tolerance.

In Liverpool's central defender combination, the trend that Benatia has shown in recent years has gradually risen and has entered the ranks of top central defenders in Europe, but Scotter and Agel do not. They are always a certain distance away from the top ranks. If Situ Yunbing wants to transform the back line, he can only give Benatia a good partner.

Liverpool's loss of points at home is equivalent to giving Manchester United a chance.

Manchester United also beat Everton 2-0 at home and scored 3 points!

Liverpool, 67 points.

Manchester United, 59 points.

The gap between the two teams was 12 points before the three rounds, but now it has become 8 points. Manchester United seems to have opened the door to reversal!

Situ Yunbing responded to Alan Hansen with a tough attitude before the game, which did not make the "Liverpool celebrity" stop. Alan Hansen did not continue to make public remarks on this topic, but other Liverpool celebrities stood up again. John Barnes suggested that Situ Yunbing listen to the words of his predecessors more, which would help him coach.

Situ Yunbing was a little bored with this and did not want to respond any more.

After spending Valentine's Day with Siglide in Liverpool for half a day, Situ Yunbing led the team to St. Petersburg, Russia. The first leg of the UEFA Cup 1/16 final is about to begin.

It was still cold to Moscow in mid-February. In the pre-match report of this game, Alonzo gave the advice: do your best!

In his report, he explained in detail that this away game is likely to determine whether Liverpool can advance to the next round.

If Liverpool wants to make plans to return home in the first leg even if they lose in the first leg, then their away game to challenge Anzhi in the group stage will be enough to give enough warning!

Their main opponent is not St. Petersburg Zenit, of course, they are not weak either, but what bothers Liverpool is the changes in physical condition caused by the local cold weather and adjusted jet lag.

Compared to the away games from Britain to Germany, Spain, Italy, France and other countries, the long time zone span and heavy journey consumption from Britain to Russia are all very different.

So if Situ Yunbing has ideas about the UEFA Cup, then there must be no reserve of strength in this away game!

Because it is very likely that St. Petersburg Zenit will do his best to defeat Liverpool at home, making it extremely difficult for Liverpool to make it even if he returns to home!

After careful consideration, Situ Yunbing made a decision and led the main force of the entire army to St. Petersburg!

Even if they will fight against their arch-rival Everton in the FA Cup three days later!

Situ Yunbing, who led Liverpool to a low-key battle, couldn't help but tremble when the plane landed in St. Petersburg.

It’s hard to imagine that it’s still snowing here!

With the experience of challenging Anzhi in the group stage, the Liverpool players were mentally prepared before coming to St. Petersburg, but in fact, some of the main players did not come at that time. The weather in the UK was not good. Liverpool was slightly better because it was a port city, at least much better than London.

But everyone seemed a little depressed after coming to St. Petersburg, and the bad cold weather restricted everyone's excitement.

Zenit St. Petersburg is not an easy team to deal with. At least they have Hulk and Dani on the front line. It may not be enough to be admired by them in the top European arena, but at their home court, Zenit St. Petersburg's fighting power cannot be ignored.

Situ Yunbing, who was standing in a warm coat at the St. Petersburg Stadium, was commanding the game. He felt that his nose was a little frozen and blue, which made him occasionally cover his hands in front of his mouth and nose to warm up his nose.

Liverpool attacked away, with all the elites coming out, and they were also playing a very utilitarian defensive counterattack. What Situ Yunbing wanted was the result, not the training, so in tactical choices, the results were the priority!

The coach of St. Petersburg Zenit is former Roma coach Spaletti. He did not allow St. Petersburg Zenit to launch a fierce offensive against Liverpool, perhaps because of fear of Premier League giants.

Liverpool's overall condition is mediocre and cannot play out many advantages. The team's overall reaction seems to have dropped a lot. Situ Yunbing is mentally prepared for this.

However, Zenit, St. Petersburg, is hard to achieve in the face of Liverpool's intensive defense. Hulk has a strong impact, but Zenit, St. Petersburg, is not very creative overall, and does not have the advantage of being better in terms of technical and tactical play, which has put the game in a stalemate for a long time.

Until the 71st minute of the second half, Liverpool got a good free kick opportunity in the frontcourt with the opponent's penalty area.

Gerald took the penalty and used a powerful shot to hit the ball into the upper right corner of the goal!

The Red Army Captain's direct free kick broke the deadlock and balance of the game!

After the team scored a goal, Situ Yunbing did not breathe a sigh of relief, but instead arranged the team to change their playing style, allowing them to take a more rigorous attitude, leaving only Bale and Suarez to counterattack.

St. Petersburg Zenit began to attack wildly. In fact, no matter whether Liverpool scored this goal, they will hit Liverpool's defense at full speed in the last 20 minutes!

Because they know that to advance to the next round, they must win the opponent at home to have hope!

Under the pressure of Zenit, St. Petersburg, Liverpool showed extraordinary calmness and teamwork ability, repeatedly curbing the opponent's threatening offensive. When the game was about to enter injury stoppage time, Liverpool seized the opponent's defense line flaws that attacked wildly to launch a quick counterattack!

After Suarez pushed the offensive to the dangerous area in the frontcourt, he completed the pass and cut with Gareth Bale. He dribbled the ball again on the penalty area line and wiped the opponent's defender Leto, and then calmly pushed the ball into the lower left corner of the goal and sent the ball into the goal!

Suarez's goal made Situ Yunbing extremely excited. For a moment, he even felt hot all over, dispelling all the chills!

The Zenit generals of St. Petersburg were helpless. Liverpool had no choice but to put in a dense defensive formation. They could not penetrate Liverpool's goal even if they tried their best!

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Situ Yunbing breathed a sigh of relief. After shaking hands with Spalletti after the game, he gestured to the disciples on the sidelines, telling them not to stay too much on the court, and they want to get time to return to Liverpool as soon as possible!

Three days later, there is a FA Cup match waiting for them, and a week later, Zenit, St. Petersburg, will visit Anfield.

The Europa League knockout round is a top 32 match, which is one more round than the Champions League knockout round.

If the UEFA Cup qualifiers are included, Liverpool played a total of 10 games in the group stage in the qualifying round, and today's game has already played 11 games!

The frequency of the schedule is beyond imagination!

But it is precisely this frequent schedule that gives Liverpool enough training stage and space.

In the knockout match against Zenit, St. Petersburg, the first leg of the away game was the most difficult. Now Situ Yunbing has completed this game with the main lineup. The next round of the confrontation will rely on the substitute lineup. He cannot consume too much of the main lineup in the UEFA Cup.
Chapter completed!
