章 72: 72: High Pressure!
Anfield Stadium can accommodate a full 54,000 fans.
And Liverpool fans accounted for a full 50,000.
This is the home field advantage of the team, and the love of football for the diehard fans.
Liverpool's formation was also 4-2-3-1.
Goalkeeper Mignolet.
Right back Clyne, the two central defenders were Sakho and Lovren, and the left back was Moreno.
The two midfielders were Henderson and Emre Can.
The three frontcourt players were Lallana, Firmino and Coutinho.
The single striker was Origi.
On the Leicester side, there was no personnel adjustment.
Okazaki Shinji, who was originally put on the bench by Ranieri, returned to the starting lineup after some serious repentance.
"Hello Everyone! Welcome to Star Sports Channel!"
In star sport's studio, Anant Tayagi was sitting on a chair, looking forward to the start of the game.
A big fan of Liverpool and a big fan of Rocky.
Anant had long been looking forward to the arrival of this game.
"Hey, Mr. Tayagi, tell me, which side do you support today?!"
As Anant's old partner, the other nameless commentator naturally knows his preferences.
He smiled and looked at Anant Tayagi, deliberately provoking things.
The fans in front of the TV couldn't help but laugh.
These commentators were really uncomfortable not picking things up.
"As fans, we naturally want to see a good game!"
"For me, it doesn't matter who wins or loses this game!"
"As long as the game is good, then I'm satisfied!"
Anant naturally wouldn't take the bait so easily.
"Then don't feel bad when Rocky scores!"
"How is that possible? Rocky scored a goal, and I couldn't be happier!"
The referee of this game was Rocky's old acquaintance, Atkinson.
Rocky scored the first goal of the Premier League and completed the first hat-trick, and the referee was Atkinson.
At Atkinson's call, the captains of both teams stepped forward to toss a coin to pick side and call for shots.
In the end, Leicester City won the kick-off and Liverpool won the side selection.
With a whistle, Leicester City took the lead.
When Vardy just passed the ball to Okazaki Shinji, he saw Liverpool's striker Origi rushing up directly and chose to counterattack on the spot.
Not just Origi.
The same goes for the three frontcourt players of Firmino, Coutinho, and Lallana.
As if they were not playing the attacking player's position, but the defensive midfielder.
Leicester City's half seemed to have transformed into Liverpool's half.
Liverpool's players rushed up unscrupulously and directly chose to counterattack on the spot.
They were like robbers, rushing up to try to force the Leicester players to make mistakes.
Shinji Okazaki had never seen such a kick.
When he saw the strong, tall and black, Origi rushing towards him, with that imposing and determined look, Shinji Okazaki subconsciously counseled.
Okazaki Shinji, who was planning to move forward with the ball, chose to pass the ball in a panic.
But his strength had been unknowingly a lot smaller.
Before this pass came to Rocky's feet, it was stolen by Lallana who rushed up from the right.
After Lallana grabbed the ball, Liverpool's players immediately dispersed and ran forward.
Lallana had many routes to pass the ball.
He takes two steps forward, draws Kante up to defend, then transfers the ball to Firmino.
After Firmino got the ball, he faked a facsimile buckle, dodging a steal from Rocky.
Then, Firmino passed the ball to Coutinho in front.
Coutinho was now only twenty-five meters away from the goal.
He glanced at the distance between himself and Morgan, and after he got the ball, he didn't hesitate to use his right foot for a shot.
Coutinho's right foot pocket shot was very threatening.
Outside world's evaluation of his long-range shot has been described as magnificent.
Also, known as Long range king.
This was the tenth round of the Premier League. After Coutinho scored a long-range goal, Anant couldn't help but sigh.
What he didn't expect was that the slip of the tongue, which was originally under his emotional excitement, was widely circulated and even became synonymous with Coutinho's name.
Under the promotion of Liverpool fans, Coutinho was sometimes called the King of Longer Range.
Of course, only Liverpool fans calls him that.
However, Coutinho's kick did not score a goal.
The young Schmeichel, who was playing in his youth, was highly concentrated after seeing his teammates concede the ball.
Facing Coutinho's long-range shot, he didn't hesitate. After judging the right position, he jumped directly and held the ball firmly in his arms.
This was the end of Liverpool's attack.
Their high press was not over yet.
This was Klopp's strategy after he came to the Premier League.
In Dortmund, Klopp also used this tactic to defeat the Bundesliga hegemony Bayern Munich.
At the same time in the Champions League semi-final, send Real Madrid home.
It is precisely because Klopp insists on this tactic, which also had a certain influence on the team's results and the players.
But the Premier League was now almost halfway through, and Liverpool's players have also adapted to this tactic.
Their stamina and mind can keep up with Klopp's tactics.
And Leicester City met such a Liverpool.
Klopp, who was standing on the coaching bench, nodded in satisfaction.
Although the team's defense had many flaws.
But the overall tactical success of the team made Klopp very satisfied.
However, this strategy was not without its drawbacks.
As long as the opposing team can hold on for 30 minutes, they will choose to give in in the face of such a mad dog's pressing.
So within 30 minutes, no matter whether Liverpool's players score or not, their physical fitness will definitely consume a lot.
The rhythm of the game will also return to normal.
After all, with such a tactic, there would be no way for any team to persist for a full 90 minutes.
Unless there are eleven robots on the field.
And the Leicester City players on the field also know this.
But.
How to survive this half hour was a big problem for Leicester City players?
