Football’s First Defender

Lukaku played again, and Liverpool was directly reversed.

Looking at the back of Lukaku celebrating, many players, including Gerrard, were a little unwilling or even angry.

In the Merseyside derby, it is a bit unacceptable for Liverpool players to have such an amazing performance by a young offensive player.

The falling behind in the score naturally stimulated Liverpool, who had to use greater efforts to attack and recover the score.

In fact, in the previous game, Liverpool did not have a chance.

Suarez's state of the game today is not bad. Not only did he score directly from a free kick, but he also counterattacked, creating many opportunities.

However, in terms of overall offensive coordination, Liverpool's offensive players still have some mismatches.

This may be what Rogers had to do. FIFA games consume too much of Sturridge, so that Rogers can only put Sturridge on the bench as a change, and dare not let Sturridge Ricky starts the game, and if he has too many physical and state problems, the impact on Liverpool will be huge.

But without Sturridge, although Coutinho's position is advanced, Liverpool's striker offense is not bad, but in terms of midfield support ability, Joe Allen obviously cannot reach the role of Coutinho.

It's okay to let Joe Allen be a passer, but let him be the last participant in the offense, but there are still some discomforts.

Now, Liverpool's fast-paced offensive mode and the huge threat on the front line can contain a considerable amount of opponent's defensive energy, and in fact, it can actually provide a great space for midfielders to insert.

However, if Gerrard plugs in, it can indeed create a threat, but Joe Allen's plug-in, like Arsenal's Ozil, can sometimes run to an offensive position, but the final shot still has obvious lacking.

Before Lukaku's second goal, Liverpool actually had many opportunities.

Especially by grasping the counterattack opportunity after Everton's offensive, Liverpool can create extremely threatening offensive opportunities.

Suarez alone can create a great offensive threat.

No need for fancy breakthrough skills, but small skills to control the ball in a small range, sensitive reaction speed, and excellent observation ability.

Suarez can still keenly find the opponent's defensive space when there are two or three people defending in front, allowing him to successfully complete the breakthrough.

When Suarez barely broke through the frontal defense of the two from outside the penalty area, at the moment blocked by the opponent's legs, he completed the pass and sent a through ball horizontally.

Joe Allen, who came over from the middle, kept accelerating and went straight forward to get the pass. One of them was immediately in the penalty area and had the opportunity to face the goalkeeper directly.

At the moment of receiving the ball, he directly hit the goal with one kick.

However, this shot was shot with almost no defensive pressure, and Joe Allen actually pushed the shot and missed it.

This time, the Everton goalkeeper didn't even have time to react to the chance to hit the goal from close range in the penalty area.

The ball has been shot out of the bottom line, and the Everton goalkeeper just froze in place.

If Joe Allen's push shot was within the range of the goal frame, Liverpool should be the first team to score in the second half and take the lead.

Even, Suarez is actually in the middle of a breakthrough, and he has a chance to hit the goal under extreme circumstances.

However, Grand Duke Suarez selflessly chose to pass the ball, but Joe Allen did not give Suarez an assist that he should have received.

If the tactics of the usual game are followed, it may be Sturridge who came to that position, or Coutinho who should have been in the midfield position. Neither of these two people will waste such an excellent goal. Chance……

And as the score was overtaken by Everton, Rogers could no longer watch the ball freely from the sidelines.

After a long season, Rodgers knew that it was impossible for the team to maintain a winning streak. For this Merseyside Derby, Rodgers knew that at Everton's home court, or when Everton performed so well this season, It is normal for Liverpool to be unable to win the game after being affected by the FIFA event.

However, Liverpool must not lose in this contest with the deadly enemy. Although the point difference between the loss and the draw is only 1 point, it has a huge impact on the morale of the team.

Sturridge and Sterling, who had been warming up in the second half, got the chance to play at the same time.

Lucas and Joe Allen were replaced.

Let Henderson, who is the most physically fit, play directly back to the defensive midfielder from the position of the right midfielder, partner with captain Gerrard, and then let Coutinho return to the position of the midfielder to attack the midfielder.

On the front line, there is a "3s" combination to enhance the team's offensive firepower.

Liverpool, when they were behind, put out what was probably the strongest attacking lineup they have had so far.

Everton, who has reversed the score and further boosted morale, still has no intention of giving up the offensive initiative at home.

However, with the addition of Liverpool's two new players, the Liverpool players were inspired by a stronger fighting spirit when they fell behind. contention.

The extremely fast Sterling, the physically fit Henderson and Sturridge, and the smart Kubird, Suarez, and Gerrard.

Liverpool's midfield players, with the current lineup, can make better frontcourt sieges on the spot.

In the fierce midfield competition between the two sides, in the end it was the Everton side, which consumed more energy before, and was the first to lose.

Liverpool, in the final moments of the game, began to take control of the offensive.

After the 3s combination at home, coupled with the strong offensive ability of the midfielder, even though the offensive help provided by the two full-backs is limited, Liverpool still showed an excellent offensive state this season.

The continuous offense constantly compressed Everton's defense.

More threatening offensive opportunities also began to appear.

Everton's defense also began to be exhausted, and sometimes they could only use fouls to prevent Liverpool players from attacking.

Liverpool's set-piece opportunities also began to increase.

In the set-piece defense, the two points of Yang Feng and Skrtel were focused on by Everton players.

Especially in the first half, Yang Feng, who assisted Coutinho with a set kick, was double-teamed by two Everton defenders.

This set ball from the right was directly taken by Gerrard in an arc and flew into the small penalty area.

The ball is extremely fast, and there is not too obvious a falling trajectory.

Sturridge rushed forward with the crowd first, but did not wait for the back point where the ball might fall, but rushed out at full speed and took off vigorously.

It is impossible to attack the goal with a shake of the head, and Sturridge's take-off height is not enough.

But Sturridge tried his best to raise his head, but still used his "scalp" to get the ball from Gerrard.

This rub caused the football to change direction slightly. The ball went directly from the front point without changing the general downward trend, but changed direction slightly, flew towards the back post area of ​​the goal, and flew directly into the net.

3 to 3!

Liverpool continued to attack, and finally Mr. Sturridge, who averaged one goal per game, came off the bench and completed the third goal to tie the score.

The two sides returned to the same starting line.

In the last ten minutes, Liverpool was not reconciled to a draw, and neither was Everton.

The two teams fought against each other, but due to physical problems, the offensive efficiency of both sides actually declined.

In the end, neither of the two teams scored again, and the score of 3 to 3 was maintained until the end.

A draw with a big score is not a happy ending, but for Rogers, being able to retreat in the away game can be regarded as fulfilling the goal set before the game...
