Arsenal's head coach Arsene Wenger was also very dissatisfied. He said this at the post-match press conference: "I am personally very dissatisfied with the result of this game, because this game
The victory should actually belong to us. At a certain point, we had completely turned the situation around, and the balance of victory had begun to tilt towards us. But at that point, the referee became the protagonist of the game, and he decided
It determines the direction of the game.”
Arsene Wenger expressed his dissatisfaction with the referee: "At that time, Vermaelen may have committed a foul, but the foul location was obviously not in the penalty area, and it was definitely not a penalty kick. Later we watched it in slow motion
Replays further illustrate this point, it was not a penalty kick. I really don’t know how the referee at the time saw that it was a penalty kick?"
Arsene Wenger was very dissatisfied. He also said: "I am very dissatisfied with this game. I think we were treated unfairly. We are now preparing information and we will definitely make the above comments after the game.
must."
After the game, the referee of this game was naturally sought after by the media reporters. Everyone interviewed them and asked for his opinion. The referee said this: "I think my penalty was not wrong. I saw it very clearly."
It is clear that the ball was indeed a penalty kick. Chris fell in the penalty area at that time, and the location of the foul was also in the penalty area. There is no dispute about this."
Reporters also mentioned Wenger's appeal. The referee of this game was not surprised: "There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers. In fact, this penalty is also the same. There are a thousand different ways for a thousand people."
It’s normal for Mr. Wenger to have his opinion. But I still stick to my opinion. It was definitely a penalty, and I am very confident in myself.”
Of course, Liverpool head coach Benitez was also interviewed by reporters after the game. He said this: "I have nothing to say about the penalty kick. There is no problem. I believe the referee did
The most correct penalty was made. I am still very satisfied with this game, although there were some ups and downs in the process."
Naturally, Qiu Ze was also favored by media reporters. Qiu Ze said: "Whether this ball is a penalty kick or not is not my decision. Of course it is not Mr. Wenger's decision, nor is it the referee's decision.
It’s the facts that have the final say. You can go back and watch the slow motion. I believe everyone will get their own answer.”
Although Liverpool's recent form has not been very good, they can still win against Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal under such circumstances. This makes all the media reporters excited. Is Liverpool really destined to win?
Have you returned?
Now the media reporters are reporting and praising Liverpool, and they are almost touting Liverpool as the team of the universe. In their view, Liverpool has already dominated the Premier League, and this season Liverpool will definitely achieve three consecutive domination of the Premier League.
.
The media reporters in England are very excited now. The team they discuss and report the most now is Liverpool. Liverpool has now become the most popular term in England, and Liverpool is almost extremely popular.
Now the Liverpool team is preparing for a league game at the weekend. Qiu Ze will not be able to play in this league because of his red card and suspension. However, the Liverpool fans are not worried at all about this game. They think
Liverpool were able to win the game easily.
At the weekend, Liverpool went away to face Fulham. Although there was no Qiu Ze, Liverpool was still a super strong team. Of course, Fulham had no way to compete with Liverpool. But the result of the game made everyone
Surprisingly, Liverpool lost 3-1 to Fulham in an away game, ushering in their second defeat in the Premier League this season.
The result of this game really exceeded everyone's expectations. No one expected that Liverpool would be so miserable and lose to Fulham.
Of course, this is the reason why they will have a life-and-death battle with Liverpool in the Champions League next week. Liverpool has reservations in this game. But even if Liverpool has reservations, it is not something Fulham can easily defeat.
, which made the media reporters very surprised.
After the game, reporters from the media interviewed Liverpool team members one after another. Liverpool's head coach Benitez was of course the most interviewed person. Benitez said this: "I really didn't expect that the game would turn out like this.
It's difficult, really. It's beyond my expectations. Of course, this is mainly because we were not prepared enough and put too much energy into the Champions League next week in midweek."
Qiu Ze of the Liverpool team is also the target of media reporters. When Qiu Ze was interviewed by media reporters, he said: "I really didn't expect the result of this game. I was watching it in front of the TV at the time.
We really didn’t perform well enough in this game, I think it’s because everyone was too tired.”
Qiu Ze also said: "However, this is not the end of the world. The league is still very long. It is reasonable to lose one or two games. Of course, our Liverpool team cannot win the league championship with a complete victory. If we lose one or two games, this
It’s all within the acceptable range.”
Qiu Ze also said: "Now our focus has to shift from the league to the UEFA Champions League. Now the UEFA Champions League has reached the most critical moment. We must ensure that we qualify for the UEFA Champions League and then return to the league.
Come."
Yes, as Qiu Ze said, all the energy of the Liverpool team is now focused on the Champions League. Now, the Liverpool team has reached a critical moment of life and death, and they cannot be careless at all.
Now in the league, although Liverpool lost in this round, they still ranked first in the league with 29 points. They surpassed Chelsea with a goal difference advantage, and Chelsea ranked second.
.Arsenal and Manchester United are tied with 25 points, ranking third to fourth.
Now Liverpool is still ranked first in the league. It looks good and is in a good position. There should be no big problems in the league. The main problem now is the UEFA Champions League. The UEFA Champions League group stage schedule is already halfway through.
However, Liverpool only achieved one win and two losses in the first three games, gained only three points, and ranked third in the group.
The team currently ranked first in the group is naturally the Lyon team, which just defeated Liverpool in the last round. Lyon team now has nine points from three wins. The second place is naturally Fiorentina, which has won two from three games, with six points.
Now it is a life and death moment for the Liverpool team. If the Liverpool team wants to qualify from the group, each of the next three games is very important. If the Liverpool team wants to ensure that they qualify from the group, the next three games
They have to win every game.
However, in the first round, Liverpool lost to Fiorentina and Lyon. It is definitely not easy for Liverpool to win from these two teams.
In the next round of games, Liverpool will play away against Lyon, currently ranked first. In the last round of games, Lyon defeated Liverpool 2-1 away from home, forcing Liverpool into such a situation.
An embarrassing situation.
Now Liverpool is definitely thinking about qualifying from the group. Of course, they all hope to win the next three games. This time they went to challenge Lyon away from home. Liverpool must have only one goal, which is to win.
The current situation of the Lyon team is very good. It can be said that they have already stepped into the top 16 of the UEFA Champions League. If they win in the next three rounds, they will basically win.
It's already safe.
Now Lyon very much hopes to qualify from the group as soon as possible, because the further they delay, the more energy they will consume in the Champions League. This is not particularly good news for their league.
Now Lyon hopes that they can kill Liverpool directly at their home court like they did in the last round, so that they will have the initiative completely in their hands. Of course, they also know that this will be difficult.
The Liverpool team is very strong, and Lyon has learned this before. However, they still want to win, and at the same time, the Lyon team is also very confident. They firmly believe that they can defeat the damn Liverpool team.
The Liverpool team attaches great importance to this game. This is a very important game for them. They must win this game. Therefore, the Liverpool team flew to France two days in advance. They must fully prepare for this game.
