The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 803 Infectious Diseases

The opening song "You will never walk alone", which has become the label of Anfield Stadium.

Anyone who comes to Anfield Stadium will be easily infected and nurtured by the tragic atmosphere brewed by this stadium after a long period of accumulation, and will also be shocked by the group of singing fans in the stands, and even easily be confused. There was an illusion that it was not a group of fans, but a group of Jagged Legion soldiers.

Liverpool has indeed been a bit sad for the past two years. Many people think that if it hadn't been for the tyrannical Tottenham Hotspur, perhaps Liverpool would have had the possibility and opportunity to win the championship. With Benitez's tactics and Coaching ability, coupled with the strong financial resources brought by India's Reliance Group, are enough to make Liverpool invincible.

But because of the existence of Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool has missed the championship time and time again, but the cruel thing is that this season has played 21 rounds so far, and Tottenham Hotspur leads the standings and ranks No. The second-ranked Liverpool scored 30 points, but in the No.[-] round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur's opponent was Liverpool.

In the eyes of many people, this is a battle of Tianwang Mountain.

Although the Premier League title this season is basically in Tottenham Hotspur's pocket no matter in terms of points or schedule, everyone still believes that there will always be a little bit of a miracle, so they think, As long as this game kills Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool still have a chance.

Benitez's team has been eliminated in the Champions League, the FA Cup and the League Cup. Now there is only one Premier League left, and it is 21 points behind. The possibility of overtaking is almost zero, but whether it is For the sake of his future in Liverpool, or preparing for the next season, he must win Tottenham Hotspur at home.

For Liverpool, if they win Tottenham Hotspur, they still have hope, because between one win and one loss, the points have been reduced to [-] points. There are still seven rounds of the league, although it is not big Possibly, but at least there is a ray of hope.

But if you lose, then everything is really over!

Therefore, for every Liverpool player in this game, they walked into the Anfield stadium with a very complicated, contradictory, and even frustrated mood. Instigated, from the beginning, he showed a kind of courage and determination to fight for the fans and dignity until the last moment.

Perhaps, this has become their last motivation!

Tottenham Hotspur's opening was a bit conservative. After all, it was an away game, and the midfielder even had a macho combination of Strowman, Matic and Vidal, which made the entire midfield of Tottenham Hotspur It looks very tough and resilient.

After the opening, Liverpool actively pressed forward to attack, but as soon as their offense entered Tottenham Hotspur's half court and the 30-meter area, it immediately seemed to hit an iron plate. They are good at attacking from the side, but Tottenham Hotspur's midfielder's defense against the wing was very good, firmly clamping Liverpool's offense.

Liverpool began to grasp the advantage of possession, but they did not seem to have become more calm and calm because of this advantage. On the contrary, they seemed impatient. They were eager to win as soon as possible, eager to beat Toth Nam Tottenham, eager to live up to the expectations of the fans.

In this case, they have made mistakes that should not have occurred on weekdays.

Thiago Silva made a long pass from the backcourt in No.206 minutes. After Lewandowski blocked Mamadou Sakho with his body, he turned around and made a diagonal pass behind him. Messi quickly inserted from behind. He dribbled the ball all the way into Liverpool's penalty area. Facing Reina, the Argentine tricked Reina with a calm feint and shot an empty goal, 1:0!

This goal completely ignited the anger of Liverpool. They began to launch a round of fierce attack on Tottenham Hotspur. Returning without success again and again caused a huge blow and pressure to their hearts.

The fans in the stands are still singing and encouraging the players. I hope they can lift their spirits and show the bloodiness of the Red Army in this crucial game. They can kill Tottenham Hotspur and save a chance for the league championship. The team salvages some dignity.

When the team is in good times, this kind of expectation can often make the team explode stronger combat effectiveness, but when the team is in adversity, it will often turn into a psychological pressure on the players.

No. 401 minutes, Gerrard made a pass error, Neymar stole the ball in the front court and went straight behind him, Lewandowski got the ball in the back and scored a single-handed goal for Tottenham Hotspur scored the second A goal, 2:0!

This almost sentenced Liverpool to death, and the team collapsed completely.

The second half started again. After the two sides changed sides and fought again, Liverpool slowed down the pace, and the pressing and oppression were no longer so fierce, but Tottenham still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, doing a solid job in their own half. The defense on the field, once the ball reaches the feet, takes a slow and slow possession of the ball to consume Liverpool and lure Liverpool to press up.

Liverpool was fooled once, but when this mistake was exchanged for Lewandowski's second single, and was almost scored by the Polish center, Liverpool was too scared to come up again.

At 10:17 minutes, Ye Qiu began to make substitutions, including some teenagers. The [-]-year-old Belgian midfielder Youri Thielemans made his first start for Tottenham Hotspur, replacing Matic as the late player. In the midfield, Tottenham Hotspur also began to actively press forward, adopting ball possession tactics, and patiently looking for opportunities, but the overall tactics are still based on safety.

Benitez didn't have many effective ways to deal with Ye Qiu's almost rogue style of play, because he could clearly feel the current mentality of the players. A state of mind that tells you rationally but soberly that you should despair is very tormenting.

In fact, this game ended in a dull end. Tottenham Hotspur defeated Liverpool 2-0 away and won the Premier League championship this season ahead of schedule. The season won the Premier League championship.

Six consecutive championships is an honor for Tottenham Hotspur, an unprecedented honor.

When the referee Weber blew the whistle for the end of the game, the fans in the stands fell silent. Perhaps they needed some time to adjust their emotions, but Benitez calmly walked towards the coaching bench of the visiting team .

Faint, without a slight wave, as if he had no emotion, this is the typical Spanish fatty Benitez's expression, even when he saw Ye Qiu, he stretched out his hand and said, " You have been with Mourinho for a long time recently, and your parking skills have improved a lot", this kind of words that should be full of sarcasm and sarcasm, but they are all tasteless when they come out of his mouth.

Ye Qiu didn't get angry because of this, he chuckled, "It's not that my parking skills are good, but your driving skills are terrible!"

After a pause, Ye Qiu also threw out his bargaining chip to save Benitez from retorting, "At least your cooperation in the 30-meter area today is almost as good as the deputy squad leader Cardiff, not much better go!"

As soon as these words came out, Benitez was really speechless.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Tottenham Hotspur did not perform at their best in this game, but the difference is that Liverpool performed sluggishly because of their own problems, while Tottenham Hotspur was happy It was easier to play, so they didn't try their best when they saw Liverpool play poorly.

One of the important reasons why Liverpool performed poorly in this game is that they are not calm enough.

With the advantage of possession, whenever Liverpool entered the 30-meter zone of Tottenham Hotspur and encountered defensive pressure, they always seemed impatient, which made Liverpool almost lose their past in this area. Coordination and routines look more like fighting on their own, and it is difficult to pose a threat to Tottenham Hotspur.

"It turns out that no matter how hard your skull is, you can't hit my iron plate, right?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Benitez had a little expression at this time, that was dissatisfaction, but not only dissatisfaction with Ye Qiu's sarcasm and sarcasm, but also because of the players. He said more than once to be calm and rational, but in fact, Liverpool was He did a terrible job of controlling his emotions.

Sometimes, Benitez also began to feel that this might be his destiny!

Looking at the past few years, although he won the title of Ye Qiu's nemesis, in fact he lost to Ye Qiu quite a lot. Except for the Champions League final, he was more in some weak matches, or In Ye Qiu's difficult situation, he restrained the opponent, but if he confronted him with real swords and guns, he would actually be powerless against Ye Qiu.

But no matter what, it was impossible for Benitez to show his weak side in front of Ye Qiu, so the Spaniard squeezed out a smile like squeezing toothpaste, "Don't get complacent too early, too early Winning the championship may not be a good thing, sometimes it may be a bad thing!"

"Thank you!" Ye Qiu still smiled, "However, you don't need to worry about this!"

Benitez turned around and left. After Ye Qiu left, the expression on his face became a little stiff. He actually knew the meaning of Benitez's words. Winning the championship too early may cause players Letting go too early may not be a good thing for the upcoming Champions League and FA Cup battles.

Tottenham Hotspur successfully achieved the Premier League title in March, which was greatly appreciated and praised by fans all over the world. Countless fans believed that this was the most dominant season in the history of the Premier League.

In the past six years, Tottenham Hotspur has demonstrated its strong dominance ability, completely ended the coveting of other strong teams for the Premier League championship, and won the Premier League championship trophy time and time again.

But Ye Qiu and Benitez' concerns are not unreasonable. After Tottenham Hotspur won the league title seven rounds ahead of schedule, a week after the team returned to London from Anfield, Tottenham Hotspur Lost to Southampton 2:3 at home.

This battle shocked everyone, including Ye Qiu and Tottenham Hotspur fans all over the world.

Tottenham Hotspur started the first half very well. The team scored two goals against Southampton in more than 20 minutes. This made the Saints feel helpless, and it can even be said that frustrated.

But after half an hour, Tottenham Hotspur began to lose the spirit of the opening, and began to want to take a safe shot, trying to drag the game to the end like Liverpool, but it turns out that Southampton is not St. only.

Before the end of the first half, Coutinho made a wonderful pass, and Lucas Moura broke through Kompany and scored, 1:2!

During the intermission, Ye Qiu repeatedly emphasized that the team must wake up and not relax just because they won the championship early. But in the second half, Tottenham Hotspur's performance still did not improve much. The team gave Southampton a goal, or Lucas Moura, an assist from Immobile.

After switching to Southampton this season, the Italian center has performed very eye-catching. He has scored [-] goals in the league and was selected for the Italian national team. He is fighting for a ticket for the World Cup in Brazil, so The fighting spirit was very strong in this game.

After the score was equalized, Ye Qiu replaced three players in one go, but the team's performance still didn't improve. Southampton was already playing crazy. Under such circumstances, as the head coach, even Ye Qiu couldn't do anything about it. He controlled the team very well, and finally in the No.903 minute, at the last moment of stoppage time, Immobile's goal helped Southampton reverse Tottenham Hotspur.

2:3, Tottenham Hotspur just lost this tasteless game at home!

From the point of view of the league battle, this game is meaningless, because Tottenham Hotspur won the championship ahead of schedule, and it can only be said that Liverpool is pissed off, but from another perspective, this game gave Tottenham Nam Tottenham have sounded a wake-up call, that is, once the players relax, how can the state be guaranteed?
Everyone is the same. When you have been tense and moving towards a goal in the past half a year, you can maintain your state very well, but once you achieve this goal, you There will be a sense of wanting to relax and take a good rest, and many times this consciousness is not even under your control.

In this game, Tottenham Hotspur not only lost a league game, but also lost a home record, which shattered the record of all victories at Stratford Stadium, and also made Tottenham Tottenham Hotspur's winning streak stopped at 31 games this season, and Tottenham Hotspur's unbeaten record stopped at 150 seven games.

The outside media and fans seemed very tolerant of Tottenham Hotspur's defeat. After all, Tottenham Hotspur was too strong this season, showing an unprecedented dominance and completely cutting off all other competitors. The desire for a championship.

But the loss of this game has rekindled hope for all competitors, especially those in the Champions League and the FA Cup, that after winning the league title in advance with a record advantage, Totten How Hotspur can maintain this state and how to regain the fighting spirit and morale of the team has become a difficult problem.

If it was just this game, the outside world would not say anything, but the terrible thing is that three days later, Tottenham Hotspur sat at the Stratford Stadium and gained an overwhelming advantage in the first half, and With Matic assisting Franck Ribery to take the lead, Bayern Munich reversed the situation in the second half, and Schweinsteiger scored an equalizer.

1:1, Bayern Munich can be said to have retreated from the away game, and also scored a crucial away goal.

At the post-match press conference at the end of this game, Guardiola was full of praise for the team's performance, and believed that the players' tenacious fighting spirit in the second half laid the hope for the team's promotion. He believed that he could eliminate the team at home. Tottenham Hotspur.

"Yes, there is no doubt that Tottenham Hotspur are a very strong team, but this game, especially the second half, they gave me a feeling that they lacked an aggressiveness, they seemed It has slackened down and lost the determination and will to play the whole game, which is a very scary thing."

Ye Qiu also admitted Guardiola's statement in the post-match press conference. He bluntly admitted that the team had problems.

"I feel like we have a serious illness, everyone is exhausted, we can't maintain the concentration of the game for 10 minutes, this makes us make a lot of mistakes in the game, some of them are fatal mistakes , we lost the efficiency we had before.”

"My team and I are working hard to find out the cause. We need to prescribe the right medicine. I hope that when we challenge the Allianz Arena in an away game in a week, the team can recover and regain the passion of the game!"

Ye Qiu's statement also confirmed the speculation of the outside world. For Tottenham Hotspur, there are advantages to winning the championship early, but the disadvantages are also obvious, especially for some players in the team. They breathed a sigh of relief, coupled with the peak of the team in the past few seasons, and defeating all opponents this season, sweeping the entire Europa, let them look at the problem with an overly optimistic attitude, and face all the problems in the game. difficulties that arise.

Ye Qiu is right, this is a disease, a contagious disease, a contagious disease that spreads very quickly, if this problem cannot be solved quickly and well, it will drag down the entire Tottenham team Tottenham will even face a kind of collapse for the team.

In Ye Qiu's view, it doesn't matter if the league wins the league ahead of schedule, and it doesn't matter if they lose. What's more, losing to Southampton and ending the team's unbeaten record is not a bad thing for Tottenham Hotspur. Yes, if you have to pay the price of losing the Champions League to stimulate the team to rekindle their fighting spirit, then the price is too high.

So, after losing to Bayern Munich in the first round of the quarter-finals, Ye Qiu announced an amazing decision on the spot in the locker room!
