Chapter 437: A Script That Even God Can't Understand 5
Chapter 437 A script that even God can’t figure out 5
When Li Yi started celebrating, referee Howard had no intention of calling the former offside. The Liverpool players who had been raising their hands when Li Yi got a single shot all withdrew their arms.
After all, offside is as effective as a penalty kick. Since it was not called at the time, even if it was a misjudgment, no matter how hard they tried, it was impossible for the referee to make any changes. What's more, the ball just now,
Through repeated replays and slow-motion on the big screen at the scene, they all saw clearly that the moment Li Yi passed the ball to Sneijder, he was actually on a level line with their back line. What a good ball.
As soon as the game started, it went smoothly. In less than 10 minutes, they scored a goal from Crystal Palace, which made it a perfect start. In the words of China, this is the rhythm of a big victory over the opponent!
However, who would have thought that less than 5 minutes after Liverpool scored, Crystal Palace not only quickly equalized the score, but now even surpassed the score on the field.
In this situation, although Benitez made many targeted arrangements before the game and wanted to avenge the mortal enemy that made them destined for this Champions League, it is inevitable that Liverpool players will also have some negative thoughts.
And at this moment, not to mention what happened to the Liverpool players on the field, first of all, Benitez, who was sitting off the field, was unhappy!
Today, Mascherano and Alonso are included in the starting lineup. It is a feast carefully prepared by Benitez for the Crystal Palace. Who knows how this feast will taste now? The Crystal Palace has not yet tasted it.
, First of all, Liverpool took a taste of it by swallowing two in a row.[
After staring at Mascherano's position several times, Benitez finally made a quick decision and called Gerrard up from the bench.
Well, in fact, the average head coach will not choose to make substitutions in the first half unless it is due to injury.
Firstly, substituting players soon after the first half starts will weaken the momentum of the team on the field. Secondly, who decides the main players? Isn’t it the head coach himself? Substituting players shortly after the game is played is a change of direction and hitting oneself.
Face, announcing to the world that he is a starter is bullshit. What other coach would risk such a big guy?
So, why did Benitez still choose to make substitutions at this point in time, less than 20 minutes into the first half? Did he not know the above two points?
How is it possible? No matter how you say he is a champion coach, Benitez will never be this good no matter how incompetent he is.
And, it is no exaggeration to say that Benitez not only knows it, but also knows it better than many other coaches!
However, today's situation is a bit special. And the direct manifestation of this specialness lies in the person Benitez wants to replace!
Who does Benitez want to replace?
Gerald!
This man has been compared to the soul of the Red Army! His appearance, apart from other things, first of all, Benitez is 100% sure that the team's morale will not be lowered because of his substitution.
Say, on the contrary, you will get a certain improvement!
In this case, what should Benitez have to hesitate? After all, Mascherano made two mistakes in a row, causing the team to concede the ball twice. Is Benitez really unable to stand it anymore?
What? You still have the problem of slapping yourself in the face?
Well, Benitez tells you, let alone this kind of illusory slap in the face, as long as he can really win the Crystal Palace today, he doesn't care even if a fan slaps him in the face on the spot.
"Toot!" After celebrating, he returned to his own half and was about to continue the game. Suddenly, the game was stopped by the referee. Following the referee's gaze to the sidelines, Crystal Palace discovered that Liverpool was about to make a substitution! [
Okay, let's just make substitutions for Liverpool. They are all abusing Liverpool. Whoever comes up and is abused will be blamed by Crystal Palace!
However, when the Crystal Palace players, who looked relaxed, saw clearly who the Red Army was replacing, their faces showed a trace of solemnity involuntarily.
"Gerald!"
Of course, being dignified, the Crystal Palace is not afraid of the former. The main reason for being dignified is that they were too unexpected!
After all, Gerrard was originally a member of Liverpool and must have been in Crystal Palace's plans. However, as luck would have it, Benitez did not start for the Jays today.
To judge others by oneself, Li Yi is the captain of Crystal Palace. Does Friedman dare to put him on the bench in a major game when Li Yi is not injured?
Therefore, after getting today's Red Army starting list and seeing that this person's name was not included, Li Yi and others thought that the Jie team was injured and could not compete.
Now, the Jays suddenly showed up lively on the sidelines and replaced teammates on the field. How could they not be surprised?
And with the emergence of the Jays, there is another point that deserves more attention from Crystal Palace!
Since Gerrard was not injured, why did Benitez make him a substitute?
What kind of conspiracy is hidden here?
…
The reason why a conspiracy can be called a conspiracy is naturally because it is not easy for others to discover it before it is revealed to the world. At this time, the same is true for the Crystal Palace.
…
The game was quickly restarted after Liverpool completed the substitutions!
After the game starts, let’s not talk about how Liverpool will change with Gerrard playing. At least there will be no changes at Crystal Palace!
So what, Liverpool wanted to attack today anyway, so Crystal Palace had to let him. Anyway, defensive counterattacks have always been the strength of Crystal Palace, so why should Crystal Palace sacrifice the first and the last?
…
Unconsciously, the game time came to the 30th minute of the first half.
In the past few minutes, Liverpool's side, after replacing Gerrard, it is obvious that the team's offensive and defensive hardness has improved a lot. They also tried to repeat the state of the opening few minutes and played abnormally against Crystal Palace.
confusion!
Unfortunately, I don’t know if it was Lescott’s own goal that used up all Liverpool’s luck today. In the past few minutes, they had two chances to score goals. In the end, they all happened by chance.
The goal was missed!
No, while talking, Liverpool took advantage of Gerrard's pull in the midfield, and Alonso passed the ball long, giving Robbie Keane a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
It is also a single goal. It can be said that Robbie Keane's single goal is easier than the one Li Yi scored before. It stands to reason that Robbie Keane can definitely score a goal! However, as Robbie Keane
The shot was blocked by Diego Lopez with his legs. Liverpool's attack once again failed!
However, when the Crystal Palace saw Diego Lopez once again make a superb save, blocking the ball out of the penalty area, and was about to walk forward to prepare for the next Red Army corner kick, who among them
They didn't even notice that the ball blocked by Diego Lopez flew along the baseline! However, I don't know if it was Robbie Keane or Diego Lopez who blocked the ball. It happened that Bichu almost touched the baseline.
It was flying, but when the ball got all the way to the corner flag, there was still no sign of going out of bounds!
