686 Retribution
In the middle of the week, three days after playing Chelsea, the Premier League ushered in the tenth round.
Liverpool welcomed Portsmouth at home.
Yang Yang only played the first sixty minutes in this game. In the 33rd minute of the first half, he assisted Crouch on the left to score, and then the game fell into a stalemate.
In the Premier League, Champions League and League Cup, and national team games, Liverpool's players basically all round and have a lot of pressure. They had fought against Atletico Madrid and Chelsea in a row. In this game, even Yang Yang was in poor condition.
After Yang Yang got off the court, in the 75th minute, Gareth Bale made a cross from the left, Portsmouth midfielder Diop made a handball foul in the penalty area, and received a yellow card. Gerrard hit a penalty kick, 2-0.
In the end, Liverpool defeated Portsmouth 2-0 at home and won ten consecutive Premier League wins.
...
Although he defeated Portsmouth 2-0, Liverpool won the game very dangerously.
But in the words of outside media and fans, just win.
The season is so long that a team will inevitably experience ups and downs, but as long as they can score steadily, the final result will not be too bad. Everyone is full of confidence in Liverpool's season prospects.
Manchester United defeated West Ham United 2-0 at home in this round, and Cristiano Ronaldo ushered in an explosion, scoring twice, and was unanimously recognized by the outside world after the game.
Ferguson did not talk about the team's championship at the post-match press conference, but believed that Cristiano Ronaldo deserved the Golden Ball Award and the World Footballer because he is one of the strongest players in the world.
After losing the strong dialogue, Chelsea's performance improved in this round, beating Hul City three to zero away.
On the contrary, Arsenal, despite taking a lot of lead, conceded two goals in the last four minutes, and finally got tied by Tottenham Hotspur at home four to four, and failed to win the North London derby.
After the ten rounds of the match, the Premier League schedule also scored a quarter and the situation was basically clear.
Liverpool led the way with ten consecutive victories, Chelsea trailing seven points, followed closely by Manchester United in third place with 21 points, while Arsenal tied with Aston Villa and Hul City at 20.
On the scorer list, Yang Yang's continuous goals were interrupted, with only one assist in this round, but in the first ten rounds, he scored a total of 15 goals and six assists, still firmly defending his halo of top Premier League scorers, and also launching the final impact on the upcoming December.

Liverpool finally lost the game on the weekend.
After winning ten consecutive victories, the Reds lost to Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 away.
After a week of double games, Liverpool finally made a mistake and lost away.
Yang Yang received an extra boundary ball from Aurelio on the left three minutes into the first half, crossed to the back point, assisting Kuyt to score a goal, opening the first record for Liverpool.
But in the 69th minute of the second half, Bentley took a corner kick, and Carragher scored an own goal from close range, and was tied.
In the final stage of the game, Daniel Ag was not in a tight spot, and made a mistake, and Pavlyuchenko scored from close range.
The Premier League reversed the king suffered a tragic reversal, and Liverpool also ushered in its first defeat in the new season.
However, after the game, the Red Army was recognized by most media and fans from the outside world.
Many media have even written articles to sympathize with Liverpool's experience, because this team has indeed encountered strong opponents in recent times, and has been playing double games for a week. The opponents include strong teams such as Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Portsmouth and Tottenham Hotspur. No one dares to say that they will not make mistakes.
Look, after playing Tottenham Hotspur over the weekend, we welcomed Atletico Madrid again in the middle of the week.
This kind of continuous game will also consume a huge amount of pressure and physical fitness on the team, as well as the players' psychology.
Alan Hansen said in the column that Liverpool's loss was indeed bad luck, both goals were made from mistakes from the back line, and Carragher's own goal was even more due to luck.
"This situation seems accidental, but it is actually inevitable."
"After all, Liverpool's game pressure during this period is too great and the players consume too much, which leads to the fact that in the second half of the game, physical energy consumption is too serious, and there will inevitably be some mistakes that should not be made in normal times."
Even Tottenham's Redknapp said after the game that being able to reverse Liverpool was favored by the goddess of luck, especially the last attack.
But no matter what, if you lose, you lose!
...
Liverpool suffered its first defeat in the season, but Manchester United narrowly defeated Hoole City 4-3 at home. The Red Devils also played very dangerously in this game. Ronaldo scored twice in two consecutive games, helping Manchester United take the lead four-one early.
But unexpectedly, when entering the final stage of the game, Hul City suddenly played consecutive attacks, scored two goals in a row, and even almost equalized the score. In the end, Manchester United narrowly defeated their opponents at home with their outstanding defense four to three.
Arsenal's situation is not as lucky as Manchester United. The Gunners lost to Stoke City 1-2 away.
Chelsea defeated Sunderland five-to-zero at home, basically continuing the outside world's judgment on the Blues this season.
Scolari's team is a good player, but he is obviously weak during the conversation between the strong.

Losing the first game of the new season, Liverpool has been facing the fourth round of the Champions League group.
Atletico Madrid is obviously prepared. They are very different from Liverpool and the La Liga schedule is looser.
As a result, while Liverpool was not performing well, Antonio Lopez assisted Maxi Rodriguez in the first half and took the lead away.
Yang Yang came on as a substitute in the 61st minute, and then Liverpool launched a continuous attack. Benitez even used up his last substitution quota early in the 75th minute, showing his courage and determination to burn his boat.
In the end, Liverpool scored two goals in the 83rd and 93rd minutes respectively, Yang Yang and Gerrard scored two goals in a row, reversed Atletico Madrid, won another victory, and advanced with four consecutive wins.
This undoubtedly greatly relieved the pressure on Liverpool.

…………
At noon on November 8, the twelfth round of the Premier League.
The focus of this round was Arsenal's home match against Manchester United. As a result, in the 22nd minute of the first half, Nasri volleyed from the left and hit Gary Neville's leg, bounced into the goal, and turned into an own goal.
Just three minutes into the second half, Fabregas got rid of Gary Neville's defense and assisted. Nasri shot in the penalty area and scored again, further expanding the score for Arsenal.
Manchester United did not show a good offensive performance afterwards. It was not until the end of the game that Brazilian young player Raphael, who came on the bench, won a game for the Red Devils, but in the end he lost the strong dialogue one-to-two.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored twice in two consecutive rounds, was also silent in this round, and Rooney has not scored in several consecutive games.
...
Manchester United lost, but Liverpool performed very vigorously at home.
Yang Yang only played for the first sixty minutes, but contributed two assists to Liverpool and helped Crouch score twice.
After the second half of the game, Aveloa won another goal in the final stage of stoppage time and locked the score at 3-0.
Chelsea defeated Blackburn 2-0 with Anelka's double score away.
…………
…………
After playing the 12th round of the Premier League, Liverpool ushered in the quarterfinals of the League Cup.
This time, Liverpool's draw was not ideal, and he won Tottenham Hotspur and was away.
Yang Yang didn't even make the roster in the game, and Benitez played in North London with a half-main and half-substitute.
The draw result was early, but Tottenham Hotspur beat Liverpool 2-1 at home, causing the grudges between the two teams to be brought from the league to the League Cup, which also added some highlights to this knockout match.
In the first half, the two sides fought hard to zero. Gareth Bale performed well against his old club. Gareth Barry and Lucas Reva's double midfielder performance was also very brave, and he tried to ensure that the team was not lost.
Even just started the second half, Gareth Bale assisted Gareth Barry to score a goal.
The 51st minute later, Pavliuchenko scored a goal and tied the score.
But in the 62nd minute, veteran Hypia of this game made a final decision in front of the goal, received Gareth Bale's free kick from the left, and headed the ball from close range to Tottenham Hotspur's goal.
Two to one, Liverpool avenged away, eliminated Tottenham Hotspur and successfully reached the quarterfinals of the League Cup.
And this time, the opponent the Reds encountered was Watford in the English Championship.

As mid-November entered the Premier League, the Premier League officially announced that the two best of the month in October still gave Liverpool a series of consecutive victories. Among them, Yang Yang once again won the best player of the month in October, and Benitez continued to be the best coach of the month.
This has also been unanimously recognized by the media and fans, because Liverpool's performance in October was indeed quite outstanding.
Perhaps because he was stimulated by the best reward of the month, Yang Yang performed extremely bravely in the 13th round of the Premier League on the weekend. After a week of rest, he became the most threatening player in the whole game.
In the 28th minute of the first half, Yang Yang scored a close-range header, breaking Bolton's goal.
This was a free kick opportunity he created on the left, but the angle was not suitable for shooting directly. Aurerio came up to take the penalty and fell to the front point. Yang Yang rushed to the top from close range, setting the team's first record.
After that, the two sides played very stalemate until the 73rd minute of the second half, Yang Yang forced a breakthrough from the left and made a cross. Gerald headed the ball from the front of the small penalty area and scored again, 2-0.
The score also remained until the end of the game. Liverpool defeated Bolton 2-0 with Yang Yang's one pass and one shot.
...
Manchester United beat Stoke City five-0 at home, and Ronaldo scored twice and performed very bravely.
Chelsea beat West Bromvic three-zero away, and Anelka also scored twice.
Only the unlucky Arsenal lost to Aston Villa 0-2 at home, which made a big and small unpopularity.
