The most low-key superstar

Chapter 67 What is he going to do?
The depression in Gerrard's heart, this Nicole is really difficult to deal with, not only destroyed several attacks of his side, but also took advantage of this only opportunity to score a goal, it seems that he is right to value him , but not enough attention is paid.

Garcia was also very helpless. Before the game, his task was to watch over Nicole, but since the start of the game, West Ham was in a state of defense. The only few times that Nicole had the ball was not long, and today Nicole Not slippery, I don't know where he is, his figure is everywhere, there is no way to guard against it.

Benitez's heart was burning with anger. Could it be that this Nickle is his nemesis, every time he meets his team, he can always play in an extraordinary state.

Padu gradually eased his excitement. Nickle is his lucky star, and he can always bring him surprises. Unfortunately, he can only rent for half a year. It would be great if he could transfer. Ferguson is really lucky.

'Nicole, I did not misread you. It was McLaren's biggest mistake to give up on you, and he will suffer retribution. ’ thought Morrison.

Liverpool calmed down after conceding the ball. They were no longer as crazy as before, but dealt with their opponents patiently. In this way, their threatening offenses increased. At least there were fewer unnecessary mistakes. Tom's situation did not improve with Nicole's goal, but became more sinister.

After the game restarted, Nichol put more thoughts on the defense against Gerrard. In the 35th minute, Gerrard opened the distance with Nichol and received Kewell's pass, and then suddenly Speeding up and rushing towards the center of West Ham, Nicole didn't dare to neglect, and leaned on him tightly. Gerrard used his height and strength to protect the ball and rushed forward. Things, Nickel is only 1.8 meters tall, half a head shorter than Gerrard, but his strength is not much worse than the opponent. Gerrard uses his body width more to protect the ball under his feet, although Gerrard He protected the ball, but he was also entangled by Nicole and had no temper. It was even difficult to look up and observe the position of his teammates, because he knew that as long as he was not paying attention, the extremely fast Nicole could let the ball under his feet The owner changed hands in an instant, and it was about to be pushed to the side by Nicole, and Benayoun was already eyeing up to double-team. Gerrard had no choice but to knock the ball into the middle with his heel. I didn't expect Gerrard to make a 'no-look' pass, including Alonso who accidentally appeared in that position. Alonso who accidentally received the ball hurriedly shot the goal, and the ball went wide exaggeratedly. , Alonso was full of remorse, standing there with his waist pinched, how he wished that time could turn back, if he was given another chance, he would definitely send the ball into the opponent's goal, but unfortunately there was no if.

In the 45th minute, Kevin Dirk fired Kewell's cross, wasting Liverpool's last chance in the first half.

During the intermission, some fans went to the bathroom to solve personal problems, some went to the dining area to smoke a cigarette or drink a glass of beer, and more people stayed in the stands to accumulate strength and prepare to cheer for the team in the second half Cheering, Yang Mi's mother and daughter received warm greetings from the surrounding fans, and some fans even asked Yang Mi to sign for him, which made Yang Mi flattered.

The head coaches of both sides made adjustments at the same time. Benayoun couldn't play his characteristics at all in the first half of the game. The main reason was that his thin body was affected by the hardness of Liverpool's midfield, so Pardo used Leo- Cork replaced him, sharing the pressure on Nickell's defense.

Benitez thought that the opponent's penalty area was insufficient, and the four defenders were a bit wasteful, so he removed Finnan and replaced striker Bellamy to strengthen the ability to grab points in the penalty area.

Not long after the game resumed, Liverpool received a gift from West Ham. Alonso broke through Leo Cork's defense and passed the ball over the heads of the crowd to the right. After Garcia stopped the ball, he glanced at the penalty area , passed the ball in, the arc of the ball was very flat, and the distance from the goalkeeper was just right. At this time, the West Ham defender who had not restored order because of Alonso's breakthrough made a mistake. Before destroying the ball, Anton-Ferdinand headed the ball. He wanted to head over the crossbar and give the opponent a corner kick at most. Who knew that Garcia’s pass was very strong. Behind his head, he drew a strange line, hit the lower edge of the beam and bounced into the net.

Own goals!
The Liverpool players celebrated crazily. Although it was an own goal, it did not affect their mood. Nickel saw Anton Ferdinand crouched in the penalty area with his head down and did not get up. Knowing that he was depressed, he walked to Go forward and pull him up, "Anton, don't be discouraged, we still have a chance, it's just a conceded goal, we haven't failed yet, cheer up, and pay them back one later."

Anton looked at Nicole and smiled embarrassingly, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"You better stop laughing, it's uglier than crying." After speaking, Nicole quickly walked away from Anton Ferdinand, who had a black face.

"Aha, poor Anton, he scored an own goal. Carroll has nothing to do with this goal. Liverpool's luck is good. Now the score is equalized, and the next game will be more intense."

The morale of the Liverpool team that equalized the score was even stronger. Although the singing of the fans in Upton Park was louder and louder, West Ham United was still struggling to support, and Nickel also encountered new problems, that is, Liverpool increased the intensity of defense against him and did not give him the chance to get the ball to break through. Gerrard was near him. When the other players received the ball from Nickel, they basically used fouls to end West Ham's game. Counterattack, their fouls are very clever, the movement is not very big, as long as you can’t catch the ball or start normally, the foul should be placed in West Ham’s half as much as possible, so that you won’t get a card, and Nicole fell into the quagmire of being fouled In particular, he has no support from his teammates.

Pardew also saw Nickle's plight, but he couldn't do anything about it. His teammates on the field were already the strongest lineup he could come up with, and everyone played well, but Liverpool's strength was far stronger than his own. And Nicole's problem must be solved by himself. Although he has asked Bowyer to support Nicole, but looking at Bowyer who is exhausted, Pardo himself doubts whether he has the energy to help Nicole.

At this time, Nicole calmed down instead. He moved his position forward a bit, and took away the attention of Gerrard and the other person. On the football position, he kept changing his direction. An interesting scene appeared on the field. Nickle kept running, which drove some Liverpool players to follow him. The formation of the field was chaotic. Liverpool's relatively smooth offense before is now a little chaotic, and the momentum of advancement has stagnated.

"What is Nicole doing? After the start of the second half, Nicole was taken care of by Liverpool, but during this time, Nicole didn't receive the ball very much, but he seemed to be planning something and kept running."

Seeing that Nicole's position kept changing, Benitez couldn't help frowning tightly together, 'What is he going to do? '

Suddenly there was an idea in his heart, he immediately walked to the sidelines, wanting to tell his players, pay attention
