Regarding the choice of central defender, Loew struggled for a long time, how to match is really a big problem.
Pony and Martinez need height and height, interception and interception, and the two often play together as a defensive midfielder. They have a good understanding. In David's view, this may be the best choice.
However, if the rotation players in these two defender positions all start at the central defender position, then Notts County's midfielder will have no substitutes available, so Loew rejected David's proposal.
Thinking that Javier Mascherano might be needed to limit Gerrard at a certain moment in the game, Loew finally decided to use Martinez and Ramos as a guest central defender. The advantage of this configuration is to defend high-altitude balls Very strong ability, and the recovery speed is also very good. Facing the Liverpool striker composed of Morientes and Cisse, it still has a certain restraint effect.
As for the actual effect, it can only be tested by the competition!
Notts County came to Liverpool one day earlier to avoid the exhaustion of travel on the day of the game.
If you want to talk about the relationship between Notts County and Liverpool, this season is really a great turning point, because they criticized Liverpool fans for disrespecting the dead Best, Liverpool fans put David on the unpopular list, the two teams The relationship between the two teams has also taken a turn for the worse. Even if they are not mortal enemies, they are almost the same. The first round of the league clash between the two sides this season almost caused a big mess. The stands at Anfield were closed by the FA.
However, although Liverpool fans still dislike Notts County and David this time, they did not take such irrational and calm actions as before. If you cause trouble for Notts County outside, then Notts County can also repay you in the same way when you return to the home court. It is better to do less trouble for the team!
Notts County is very happy to be able to get a stable rest environment, at least they can put all their energy in the game instead of wasting it off the court.
The atmosphere in the media before the game was very tense. There was a lot of smoke and fire, and the duel between powerful players, who will control the ups and downs?
The news of Notts County’s shortage of central defenders was inquired by the pervasive media. As a result, Notts County’s winning odds suddenly increased, surpassing Liverpool’s winning odds by a large margin. In other words, everyone The wind has shifted, and I am optimistic that Liverpool can win at home!
No way, it can only be said that Notts County is unlucky. All four central defenders are unable to play, and other players can only come to play. How useful is such a defense in such an important game?
What Benitez is best at is to formulate tactics according to the opponent. With such a big loophole in Notts County in front of him, can Liverpool not fight to the death?
Many neutral fans have begun to observe a moment of silence for Notts County.
Feng Shui takes turns to sit, and it's time for Liverpool to rise again!
After the establishment of the Premier League, except for the UEFA Cup, Liverpool has not won a truly gold-rich championship. Manchester United, Arsenal, and now Notts County are all mountains firmly on top of the Red Army. With a few big mountains, Liverpool is about to become a down-and-out giant!
Now there is finally a chance to win the championship. For Liverpool, it is absolutely not to be missed.
When he got the starting list for Notts County, Benitez finally felt relieved. He thought that the lack of central defenders in Notts County was a smoke bomb deliberately released by Notts County, but now it seems that Notts County is real. Bad luck.
In this way, wouldn't Liverpool's chances of winning be greatly increased. If they can really beat Notts County at home, they will be considered a success!
At the press conference before the game, Loew and Benitez had a fierce verbal battle. There was no way, neither of them could show weakness at this time. This was not only a matter of their own face, but also related to the team's Confidence, if a coach shows weakness before such an important game, although it may be out of consideration to confuse the opponent, it will also do a lot of damage to the morale of the team!
On the night of the game, Anfield was full of fans early on. When the fans of the two teams were warming up, the atmosphere of the whole stadium had already fallen into a state of frenzy.
Liverpool's performance this season is still quite good. The Champions League has advanced to the semi-finals, and the Premier League standings ranked third, suppressing Arsenal and Manchester United. For the weakest lineup in the Premier League's BIG5, it is possible to achieve such results. It is not easy!
The fans are not ignorant of football, they cannot blindly ask the team to win the championship, this is obviously unrealistic, Liverpool's current results are enough to make them proud!
Soon, the game officially started, and the battle between the two teams really kicked off. Compared with the previous league game, this Champions League semi-final is the real highlight.
Except for the central defender position, Notts County has played the main force in other positions, and the lineup still overwhelms Liverpool.
There is no way, Notts County's overall player value is no team can compete with. If you simply compare the starters, Notts County's 11 players on the field can be replaced by more than three Liverpool.
The Red Army fans in the stands are very envious of Notts County for having such a luxurious lineup. If they have such a lineup, then there is no suspense for the championship!
Couitt is from Notts County. He performed well after he came to Anfield. Although he was placed in the position of winger, his scoring rate was not lower than that of Morientes and Cisse. What's more, he could Providing high-intensity frontcourt pressing, he is the absolute confidant of Benitez.
It would be nice to have more players like this for Liverpool. The best thing is that the club can recruit a few players from Notts County this summer, which can not only enhance their own strength, but also weaken Notts County. This kind of idea is not too good ah!
At the beginning of the game, Notts County quickly took control of the players, and launched a fierce attack on Liverpool against the guest. This is the strategy Loew determined early.
No way, the team's defense is not reassuring after all. The best way is to use offense instead of defense to minimize the chance of the defense facing the opponent directly. That's why Notts County is uncharacteristically so aggressive!
Benitez obviously did not expect this situation. In his opinion, Notts County must focus on defense at the beginning of the game. This is Notts County's consistent style of play, and today will certainly be no exception. But the husband surprised Benitez with a subtle change.
In the opening 5 minutes, Notts County's oppressive attack caused a lot of omissions in the Red Army's defense. If it weren't for the defensive players who sacrificed their lives to block the eye-catching, Notts County may have already taken the lead in the away game!
