926 Fighting Down!

Before the game, he did not take Pochettino and Tottenham seriously, so he naturally would not show off his power after the game. Situ Yunbing paid more attention to the results of other games.

Unexpectedly, good news did come from other games.

Burnley tied Chelsea 1:1 at home!

Arsenal, Manchester United and Manchester City all won this round.

But at least Liverpool further widened the gap with second-place Chelsea.

Liverpool, 64 points.

Chelsea, 58 points.

Arsenal, 54 points.

Manchester City, 52 points.

Tottenham, 49 points.

Manchester United, 47 points.

The 6-point gap has actually begun to become very advantageous to Liverpool in the context of 13 rounds left in the league.

The Champions League knockout stage is coming, and since he only won the second place in the group, Liverpool must first join the home and then away when playing the 1/8 finals.

Napoli, led by Italian coach Sarri, performed well in the Champions League group stage, but there were indeed no strong teams putting pressure on them in the group stage. Benfica, Dynamo Kiev, and Besiktas, it is not a strange thing to get the top spot in this group.

In the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 final, Liverpool played against Napoli at home.

Liverpool is waiting for the game to come and welcomes Napoli at home.

The pre-match press conference was calm and Situ Yunbing had no intention of leading the battle, especially against Naples, which is still recognized as a top-notch team in the European arena. Situ Yunbing was not too arrogant to defeat them and regarded them as the top enemy.

Naples is really not worthy of it.

Especially after they bought the main center Higuain in the summer, Naples' strength has actually been weakened to a certain extent.

Anfield Stadium is soaring!

Red Army fans are used to rendering the atmosphere here into a devil's home craze, making the opponent feel like falling into hell when he comes here!

Situ Yunbing has paid very little attention to Serie A over the years, because in the eyes of real European football giants, no team in Serie A can truly reach the peak on the European stage!

Juventus can barely count as half of it. With the decline of the two Milan heroes, Napoli always shows signs of rising, but in the end, they can't even win the Serie A championship, so there is no way to expand their territory on the European battlefield.

However, Napoli does have good players, including Hamsik, Mertens, Insigne, Calleon, etc.

Just compared with Liverpool's lineup, Liverpool's configuration in each line is stronger than that of Naples. If these advantages are combined, the gap between the strength of the lineup will be very huge!

Liverpool’s current hospitality method is to start with the king!

The rhythm is raised to the extreme at the beginning of the game. As long as the opponent cannot adapt for a short period of time, it will be very passive and even dangerous!

The same is true in the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals today. When Liverpool started the game, it bombarded the Napoli defense line and the right attack burst out with murderous threats, Napoli instantly became panicked.

Arnold responded quickly, Eriksen took the initiative, and coupled with Lewandowski's dedication, Mbappe became the target of strong support for the attack group, constantly transporting him shells!

In the 4th minute of the game, when Liverpool had just finished playing on the right and was defeated by Napoli, they successfully counterattacked in the midfield. Henderson transferred the ball and found Sane on the left side of the penalty area. Napoli's defense line quickly moved and adjusted, but he didn't expect Sane to step up on the spot to cross the ball into the back point of the penalty area!

When Napoli's defense turned around, he suddenly found that Mbappen cut inward and reversed offside successfully. After stopping the ball, he adjusted the ball and shot at a low angle and sent the ball into the far corner of the goal!

The attack is full of murderous aura, and the ending attack is fatal!

Liverpool's style of play has never been dragged on, and he performed even more prominently after coming to this stage in 2017!

Mbappe ran along the sidelines, causing a spectacular wave of people in the stands!

Seeing the team lost the ball, Sarri subconsciously wanted to take out a cigarette, but when he thought that it was Anfield and the stadium was banned, he felt uncomfortable.

Sulli couldn't help feeling nervous too!

Conceding the ball in 5 minutes of the game is definitely a very bad sign.

Teams like Naples can still play a speed advantage in Serie A against Milan’s two-star Milan and Juventus Roma Lazio, but it is utterly a dream to show their speed advantage against the king-level Reds in the European arena!

After all, Naples' acceleration is only partial, while Liverpool is in the overall situation!

Perhaps in their eyes, Liverpool's performance is simply crazy and demonic!

In particular, Liverpool can continue to make efforts and maintain a high rhythm rather than a phased explosion!

This endurance of the game rhythm and intensity is reflected in the fact that even if you look at European football, few teams can do it.

After conceding the ball, Napoli did not rush to equalize the score and went to face Liverpool head-on, strengthening the defense and trying to tighten the fence and find opportunities.

After all, this is the Champions League knockout match, and there is no need to play in the first round with the awareness of shooting bullets.

But in Naples' eyes, Liverpool is going to make the absolute advantage of advancing to the quarterfinals!

After leading the score, Liverpool attacked even harder!

The Reds fans in the stands were extremely excited. Perhaps Liverpool could not be as strong as in the past few seasons this year, but when Sane and Mbappe took the lead, people saw Liverpool rejuvenated as if they had completed a new era!

Vibrant and murderous!

Situ Yunbing stood on the sidelines and put his hands in his pockets, as if he had no emotional ups and downs in the game, but under his majestic expression, he was obsessed with victory in the game!

Liverpool should win, not only win, but also play to make the opponent's heart shadow!

All of these are reflected in Situ Yunbing's posture!

Otherwise, how can you be king?

In the 12th minute of the game, Liverpool successfully counterattacked wildly in the frontcourt. Hamsik was intercepted and quickly returned to defend and released a shovel, but before Eriksen fell, he had already sent the ball to Lewandowski's feet.

Lewandowski pivoted the ball horizontally and then passed it straight, Sane quickly cut in, and then adjusted the ball with stop and walk and cross-cut, and then kicked the ball with a decisive foot!

The football hangs straight on the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball!

Liverpool won another goal at home!

Situ Yunbing stared at the team doctor and entered the field to check Erikson's injury.

When the team doctor made a gesture to Situ Yunbing for a replacement, Situ Yunbing's expression did not change, but his pace of turning around and walking towards the bench was a little heavy.

Casemiro will not return until next month, and now Liverpool is in the stage of lack of soldiers and major generals again.

After celebrating the goal, Reds fans also blessed Eriksen, who was helped by the team doctor, with applause.

I hope he can return to the stadium as soon as possible.

There is no one in the midfield, and Situ Yunbing has no choice but to replace him, so he can only change his formation!

Valdy came on as a substitute, replaced Eriksen and also brought Situ Yunbing's tactical adjustment instructions. He played double striker with Lewandowski.

433 becomes 442.

The role of Sane and Mbappe also needs to change. You can't cut in and get close to the middle lane so frequently, otherwise this system will actually become 424!

Relatively speaking, it is somewhat dangerous.

Against the backdrop of two goals leading, Situ Yunbing still maintained the team's balance as much as possible.

Although Liverpool encountered passive substitutions and it was very early, Liverpool was still putting offensive pressure on Naples after the substitutions!

Liverpool has changed its playing style. After defeating the opponent on the wing, they should try their best to cross it. Because there are two centers, Liverpool can either directly find the forward to cross it and grab the points, or choose to play against the center behind the opponent's defense line and then seek cooperation.

Naples' counterattack began to pose a threat because Liverpool's defense and control capabilities in the middle have declined. At this time, the defensive triangle formed by Van Dijk, Coolibali and Kante played a huge role!

It has repeatedly curbed the counterattack from Naples!

Liverpool's offensive threat is not as good as before, after all, this is not their strongest offensive method.

However, before the end of the first half, Robertson made a 45-degree cross from the left of the frontcourt accurately landed. Lewandowski restrained his defensive forces and provided a cover for Vardy. The latter stepped forward in the penalty area and completed the offside and then crossed the ball in front of the right post and sent it into the goal!

Anfield Stadium burst into earth-shaking cheers!

Vardy rushed to celebrate with excitement!

Liverpool leads Napoli 3-0 at home!

Sarri's face was solemn. Maybe he had the same idea as Napoli fans: If the score had not changed, it would have been basically announced that Napoli would be eliminated!

Situ Yunbing applauded on the sidelines while exhaling a deep breath.

Erikson's injury must have been unexpected, but fortunately the game was not out of control.

During the intermission, Situ Yunbing redeveloped the tactical style.

A two-goal lead may not be safe for advancing to the Champions League quarterfinals, but the advantage of three-goal lead will definitely make them hope to advance significantly!

The tactics were re-formed and the whole team was reminded to ensure that they were focused!

Situ Yunbing didn't care about the adjustments that would be made in Naples.

Even if Sarri does not understand the Premier League and does not pay attention to the Premier League, he believes that Sarri will have some self-knowledge after the first half of the game.

If you want to fight at Anfield Stadium, you will inevitably have to bear huge risks!

The outside world may think that Liverpool occupies the commanding heights of strength in this contest, so Situ Yunbing will not have sufficient research on Naples!

But in fact, Situ Yunbing has studied Naples and Surrey a lot, and focusing on preparation has always been his professional habit.

Even if you find that the opponent is not that strong after a lot of preparation, you will still do a good job.
Chapter completed!
