465: Liverpool have already lost half
February 2016, 2, London, England, the new Wembley Stadium.
What will be held here today is the final of the 2015-2016 English League Cup. The two sides are the Red Army Liverpool and the Eagles Lazio.
Today's game scene can be described as overcrowded.
Many people who came to the scene were fans of Crystal Palace. They came here today to watch Crystal Palace win the League Cup for the fourth time in a row.
With Tong Yi around, they don't have to worry.
Because, Tong Yi will not let this champion fall by the wayside.
After Tong Yi came to England, a new name "Tong Yi Cup" was engraved on the English League Cup.This championship can only be taken by Tong Yi, and no one can take it away.
Even if you are Tong Yi's senior brother, you Klopp don't want to take this championship away from Tong Yi.
The League Cup champion must belong to their Crystal Palace.
Before that, media reporters were more optimistic about Crystal Palace.
After all, the Crystal Palace has been in a lively state recently, and has won 14 consecutive victories in various competitions. Almost no one can stop the progress of the Crystal Palace people, except themselves.
In this game, Crystal Palace's opponent Liverpool is actually good and very strong.
However, in the previous game, Crystal Palace defeated Klopp's Liverpool.This time, Crystal Palace will definitely beat Liverpool again.
However, there are also people who are optimistic about Liverpool.
After all, Liverpool's recent state is also very good. In the last round of the game, their team just beat Everton [-]-[-] in the Merseyside derby.They are now coming to face Crystal Palace with the prestige of a big victory, and their Liverpool is also capable of fighting.
In this game, Klopp's Liverpool will definitely not admit defeat.
Liverpool is strong here, and it is still unknown who will win this game until the end.
Obviously, Klopp naturally wants this championship very much.After all, this is also the first championship he came to England to hit. He hopes to give him a good start in his life in Liverpool, and also to send a gift to Liverpool's top management, so that Liverpool's top management will trust him more in Klopp.
This championship is also very important to him Klopp.
In this game, Liverpool will definitely go all out to win this championship.
And, to be honest, Klopp feels that Liverpool's chances in this game are still very good.As the saying goes, prosperity must decline, and the current Crystal Palace has reached such a stage.The Crystal Palace has already reached the apex. At this time, if the Crystal Palace meets Liverpool, it will really be over.
Klopp is confident about this.
Of course, he will definitely not underestimate Crystal Palace.
Tong Yi, the head coach of Crystal Palace, is very familiar with him. The two are not only senior brothers, but also direct competitors in the Bundesliga. People are tied in the Bundesliga.
He naturally knew how powerful Tong Yi was.
Therefore, before this game, he reminded the Liverpool players many times to take it seriously.Crystal Palace is no longer the big belly of England a few years ago, they are considered England's top team.Their Liverpool must lower their stance and fight for Crystal Palace to have a chance.
The Liverpool players nodded one after another, expressing their understanding.
I don’t understand, it’s okay, Crystal Palace is now the top team in the league, winning 14 consecutive victories.And their Liverpool are only ranked 8th in the Premier League. If they don't lower their posture, who will lower their posture?
Klopp is right, Crystal Palace is no longer the belly of the year.
At this time, if there are still people who look at Crystal Palace with old eyes, then they must be the ones who suffer.
In this game, they have to fight against the Crystal Palace to have a chance.
At this time, players from both sides have already entered the court, and the game is about to start.
Tong Yi came to the stadium and walked directly to Liverpool's head coach Klopp.
Klopp stretched out his right hand to Tong Yi from a long distance away. The performance of the two seemed to have a very good relationship, which caused the camera on the scene to focus on them.
The first sentence Klopp said was: "I'm sorry, David! The victory of this game, our Liverpool will be determined!"
Tong Yi smiled slightly and said, "Are you so confident?"
Klopp said: "Of course, I have prepared for this game for a long time. This championship is my good start in Liverpool, so I will definitely win this game. I am really sorry!"
Tong Yi looked at Klopp, he could tell that Klopp was really determined to win this championship.
If I were Klopp, I would definitely do my best to win this game and take away the championship trophy.
Because there is no such championship trophy, there is a very big difference for Klopp's life in Liverpool after that.
After winning this championship, Klopp's life in Liverpool will be much easier in the future.
With this championship, Klopp's prestige has been erected in the hearts of Liverpool players!
This championship, Klopp is bound to win.
Tong Yi smiled slightly and said: "I can understand your thoughts, but you have to know that I have never let this champion fall behind since I came to England. I think...it is the same today! Really, sorry, Yule root!"
Klopp also chuckled, and said: "Really? Never left behind? Then let me break this weird look!"
Tong Yi could tell that Klopp was full of confidence.
Tong Yi stared at Klopp and said, "I'll wait and see!"
Klopp stared at Tong Yi closely and said, "I will not disappoint the Liverpool fans!"
After speaking, Klopp gave Tong Yi a hug, patted Tong Yi on the back, then turned and walked back to his coaching bench.
Looking at Klopp's back, the corners of Tong Yi's mouth rose slightly.
Then he immediately turned around and walked quickly to his coach's bench.
Back to his seat, Tong Yi's face became serious.
This game will definitely be very difficult to play, Klopp is very difficult to deal with.It seems that it is not so easy for Crystal Palace to win this game.
Even Crystal Palace may not be able to win this game.
Tong Yi immediately came to the sidelines and reminded the players of Crystal Palace not to underestimate their opponents, but to calm down their minds, play seriously, and never lose this championship.
The Crystal Palace players nodded one after another, expressing their understanding.
To be honest, they are also full of expectations for this championship.They also don't want this champion to fall by the wayside, they want to win the League Cup for four consecutive times!
They are ready for this game.
Seeing the players nodding, Tong Yi was satisfied, then turned around and walked back to his coach's bench, and sat down.
Sitting next to him is Beckham.
The camera at the scene also scanned Beckham's handsome face. Everyone found that Beckham was talking to Tong Yi at this time?It is very possible that the two are talking about the tactics of this game, right?
At this time, players from both sides were already standing on the court, and the kick-off was about to begin.
"Friends of the audience, friends of the fans, hello! We are Mortensen, and today we bring you the final of the 2015-2016 Carabao Cup, against Liverpool and Crystal Palace. Now let's hurry up Let me introduce to you the starting rosters of both sides today." BBC Sports naturally broadcast the game live.
Today's starters are as follows:
Home team: Liverpool, manager: Klopp, formation: 4-4-1-1
Goalkeeper: Mignolet
Back four [from left to right]: Alberto Moreno, Mamadou Sakho, Lucas Leiva and Klein
The midfield four [from left to right]: Coutinho, Emre Can, Henderson and Zaha
Single midfielder: Firmino
Solo striker: Sturridge
Visiting team: Crystal Palace, head coach: Tong Yi, formation: 4-2-1-3
Goalkeeper: Alisson
Back four [from left to right]: Alonso, Rudiger, Van Dijk and Cancelo
Double midfielders: Witsel and Kanter
Single midfielder: De Bruyne
Three strikers [from left to right]: Asensio, Ignacio and Perisic
This is the starting list of both sides today.
To be honest, the starting rosters of both sides today are a bit out of everyone's expectations.
The biggest surprise on Liverpool's side was that it appeared on his defense line. Rewa, who originally played as a defensive midfielder, appeared in the position of central defender, which was unexpected by everyone.Before the game, I didn't hear that Skrtel and Lovren were injured. They didn't appear in the starting list today. Let a midfielder play as a central defender?
However, at this time, everyone understands that Liverpool should have no central defender available.
Otherwise, Liverpool will not force Rewa to play central defender.And there is no central defender on the bench, which shows that Sktel and Lovren are really injured.
Seeing Liverpool's lineup, the media reporters and fans at the scene were very worried. They all felt that Crystal Palace should win.There are no decent central defenders on Liverpool's side. How can they defend Ignacio?Can't Liverpool's defense be smashed by Ignacio?
But some people have said that Liverpool's starting lineup is an ecstasy.
How could Klopp let a guy who is less than 1.8 meters play a central defender and defend Ignacio?Obviously it is Can, not Lucas, who is going to play as a central defender.
Anyway, Zhan also has a height of 186-188cm. He is much more reliable as a central defender than Lucas.
But many media reporters and fans believe that even if Zhan goes back to play as a central defender, it is impossible to defend Ignacio. Liverpool is really hanging in this game.
When seeing this starting lineup, Liverpool fans were very worried. They also felt that it would be more difficult for Liverpool with this lineup to win.Because the Ignacio of the Crystal Palace is really not something that their impromptu central defender combination can defend. Liverpool is in danger.
And the starting lineup of Crystal Palace is also a bit surprising.
We can understand your Crystal Palace's rotation.But the area you rotate should not be so large, right?
We can understand that there are two substitutes on top of the full-backs. After all, the strength of these two substitutes is not bad.But what does it mean that Witsel can't play Casemiro in the midfielder position?Is this an attack that underestimates the opponent?Or are you going to besiege your opponent frantically in this game and not give your opponent any chance to attack?
The most surprising thing is this striker. Did Salah and Mane rest today?Why do you want to play these two wingers?Even some media reporters are wondering, is this guy Tong Yi letting the water go?
Are you going to give Klopp a League Cup title?
Anyway, looking at the offense of the two teams in this game, to be honest, the media reporters felt that this game was full of suspense.
However, most people are still more optimistic about Crystal Palace. After all, the central defender combination of Liverpool's defense is really too abstract.Can this temporary cameo central defender really be able to defend Ignacio?
Everyone thinks it's impossible!
Therefore, in this game, everyone is more optimistic about Crystal Palace.
beep!
At this time, the referee of the game blew the whistle to start the game.
The kick-off was first for the home team Liverpool. Liverpool wore traditional red long johns and attacked from the right to the left of the screen, while Crystal Palace was wearing a yellow away jersey and attacked from the left to the right of the screen. .
