Chapter 1104
Klopp's anger at half-time still played a big role. No Liverpool player would be willing to let Chelsea mess up the night of securing the championship. Liverpool's morale was boosted at the beginning of the second half, and the short break at half-time still gave everyone a breather After playing again, Liverpool finally concentrated and stabilized their position.

Not only that, Liverpool also started to have some decent offenses, but they were still a little short of scoring goals. Luck is a wonderful thing.

The Liverpool fans in the stands couldn't see the smiles on their faces at this time. They were all staring at the field. Usually when they fell behind, they would sing some cheering songs to the players on the field in unison, but today they didn't .

As for Qian Huan, he no longer talked freely among the people around him in the first half, smiling like a flower, but looked at the situation on the pitch with a solemn face. When Liverpool missed a few opportunities that were not good opportunities in the second half, It caused him great dissatisfaction!

"Damn it, it's so simple that you don't want to enter?!"

"He kicks like shit!"

He scolded a lot of players on the field, and the only one who could not be scolded by him was Zhang Yuan. He was restraining himself. After all, Zhang Yuan was not only a player, but also his good buddy. It's not Zhang Yuan, it's someone else, it's Messi or Ronaldo, the boss who has always been not very good-tempered may have started scolding him a long time ago.

The game only gave Liverpool about 20 minutes. After the start of the second half was relieved, Liverpool fell into a dilemma again. Chelsea began to take the initiative on the pitch and gradually suppressed Liverpool, but the pressure could not be as high as before. So good at half time.

The more I watched, the more frightened I became. At this time, some Liverpool fans thought that we should do something, what can we do? !Sing!
So Liverpool's team anthem, the song sung to the players on the field, gradually sounded, and the sound became louder and louder. The Liverpool players heard the singing, and they also gritted their teeth and persisted. It was not the defense that insisted.

Relatively speaking, the back line played quite well today, at least it has not conceded a second goal so far. The key is that the front line, the midfielders, have always been restricted by Chelsea's style of play, and coupled with poor form, they will Zhang Yuan chugs and chugs alone, but his effect today is not very good.

The offense cannot pose a great threat to Chelsea. Naturally, the unlucky pressure is placed on the defense. The offense and defense are balanced. It will cause the opponent to launch a counterattack against Liverpool. Fortunately, Hiddink's team is relatively simple in terms of playing style, and there are not many routines.

Liverpool's defense is not a particularly big problem, but the problem now is that Liverpool need to score goals, they are behind, and only when they get a draw can they completely lock the championship.

Zhang Yuan also seemed a little helpless on the court. He called out to someone in his heart, Klopp!

In such a situation, the only way to change the situation of this game is to change players and increase the new force!
Zhang Yuan thinks this way, and Klopp on the sidelines also thinks the same way. He can't just watch Liverpool's improved situation being suppressed to the bottom. Substitution is an inevitable choice.

From the 66th minute to the 73rd minute, Klopp changed three people in a row, used up three substitutions, and adjusted the formation to 442. Kanter and Emre Can partnered in the middle, and the two wings became Milner and Henry. Dessen, Zhang Yuan partnered with Sturridge to become a double striker.

442 To be honest, Klopp has hardly used such a formation since his arrival. The 442 formation is also an old-school formation of the Premier League team. That's what it means, to force a cross, specifically to play the cross, to play the twin towers tactic, of course Liverpool's twin towers tactic is an upgraded version, Zhang Yuan and Sturridge are both very fast.

This is Klopp's method after thinking, whether it works or not is another matter!
After such a substitution, Liverpool's long passes suddenly increased. Since they could not completely control the midfield, it was a very good way to do so. The problem was Zhang Yuan. From the confrontation, Zhang Yuan and Sturridge The partner will not suffer from the central defender partner of Terry and Cahill, but Zhang Yuan has more physical confrontation with the opponent in the past. Now that his physical fitness has declined, he may suffer in the confrontation.

Zhang Yuan had a short communication after Sturridge came on the field. Zhang Yuan covered his mouth and said to Sturridge: "Later, you go to stand in Terry's place and fight against Terry. As he grows older, his physical fitness will decline faster. At this time, you are a new force and can cause trouble for him. I will be in charge of restraining him around!"

Sturridge nodded!

Terry has been famous for a long time. As one of the best central defenders in the Premier League, he has nothing to say about his frontal confrontation ability, but after all, his age is not those years. The poor situation of Chelsea this season has nothing to do with their age. It's impossible to have none of them. Chelsea's older center back partner who turns slowly and turns slowly really has to bear the blame, and Mourinho can't let Mourinho bear it all.

The usefulness of Sturridge is that he is faster, taller, strong enough, and just played again, enough to cause trouble for Terry who was tired for most of the game.

Cahill was younger in comparison and was a bit more difficult to deal with. Zhang Yuan left the central defender to himself.

It should be said that such an arrangement was just right for Terry and Cahill, and Zhang Yuangui was unhappy, but Terry knew very well that he would suffer a lot if he singled out Zhang Yuan. He was younger than him, and he already had a card. At least Sturridge is not as difficult to deal with as Zhang Yuan. After all, Cahill is a little younger than himself. Now is not the time to get angry and compete with Zhang Yuan. He wants to see Zhang Yuan cry. Cry to Zhang Yuan!

But the next two times really surprised Zhang Yuan. Sturridge fell behind in the two consecutive top battles with Terry. Zhang Yuan was doubting whether his judgment was correct. This old thing can still move. You must know that Firmino is not in good condition, but he also spent a lot of time with them!

Terry smiled wryly in his heart, relying on his own experience, he took the lead to stand in position twice, forcing Sturridge not to take off, but if Liverpool passed the ball more early, he would suffer a disadvantage, the speed was not as fast as Not on Sturridge.

Hiddink also made a mistake at this time. He believed that Klopp's tactics were desperate, and he also relied too much on the central defender combination of Terry and Cahill, so tactically he still chose to control the ball and attack forward as much as possible.

Chelsea's Hazard and Diego Costa are in very bad form this season. Hazard has only recovered some form during this period. This game played relatively well. Hiddink has bet on Hazard and Diego. Costa hopes to score another goal to seal the victory, so Hiddink still follows the original method tactically, trying to exert strong pressure on Liverpool from the beginning of the midfield.

The result of this is that the distance between the midfielder and the defender will inevitably increase. Liverpool's defenders began to frequently pass long balls, while Henderson and Milner on the two wings returned to defense while paying special attention to playing Chelsea. Behind Li and Cahill, Zhang Yuan and Sturridge both consciously or unconsciously took the opportunity to run towards the gap between the center back and the full back.

The English media and the European media have been saying that Liverpool’s offensive power is very good and very strong. An important reason is that they always have Zhang Yuan who has made the final decision. Others are very happy and willing to serve him. Any mistake may allow Zhang Yuan to seize the opportunity.

Zhang Yuan’s poor performance in this game does not mean that he does not have such ability. Hiddink’s lack of attention and always wanting to focus on me finally suffered. In the 79th minute, 10 minutes after Sturridge came on the field , Chelsea's attack in the frontcourt failed. After Liverpool got the ball and advanced to the midfield, Henderson kicked a long pass and hit Terry behind him.

Sturridge had deliberately distanced himself from Terry earlier. At this time, Henderson's long pass was just right. Sturridge countered offside with speed. Terry had no time to recall the foul, so he had to fight back Run, fortunately, Henderson's ball is a long oblique pass, and the amount of advance is relatively sufficient. If Sturridge's stop is not handled well, Terry will still have a chance to intercept successfully!
