Chapter 265 French Goal
Whether Bruce thought of the face problem or not, no one knows except himself. However, after Bruce decided to defend, Birmingham's situation was really not good.
Originally, from the beginning to the present, although Liverpool has an advantage on the court, on the surface, the two teams still have meritorious defense. This situation has been maintained until Don Jack's goal. At least from the perspective of the game, Birmingham lost the ball, but it is not shameful.
But now, they are so humiliated!
After turning to defense, Birmingham's team seemed very chaotic for a while. The front court, midfield and guard line were obviously out of line. From this point of view, Bruce did not control the team very well. In fact, many Birmingham players on the court were questioning Bruce's command ability. The ball just now was obviously good. OK, let's defend with all our strength when the opponent gets in?
That kind of game is really painful!
On the court, even a defender does not like passive defense. Such a situation is a torment to play on the court, and Bruce's tactical changes make the whole Birmingham team full of complaints. Unfortunately, Liverpool failed to take advantage of the chaotic opportunity to score another goal.
A few minutes later, Birmingham's formation stabilized. At this time, it became very difficult to break through their defenses.
In the next ten minutes, Don Jack was still the most conspicuous player in the game. He kept running around in the midfield and the front court, making the Birmingham player in charge of keeping an eye on him very helpless. When there was no chance, Don Jack passed the ball to his teammates, and if he had the opportunity, he would shoot directly. Such a performance It's not easy for Birmingham to make a defense.
This scene made Benitez quite satisfied.
Just by looking at the performance of the black-haired boy on the court, you can see his growth. When he first came to Liverpool, at the beginning of the game, Don Jack really rarely cooperated with his teammates. Except for a shot, there seemed to be nothing surprising, which was worse than ordinary players. Now when there is no chance, Jack Don also has room to play. The cooperation between him and his teammates can find more opportunities for the team, and the fast-moving running position and consciousness also allows him to win more opportunities for himself in the running.
At the same time, Don Jack's running distance increases, and his consciousness naturally rarely makes some low-level mistakes, so other front-court players of the team also have more opportunities.
Among them, Sesé is the most profitable.
Gibriel. Cissé was the top scorer of Ligue 1 last season and also the top scorer of Ligue 1 in the 2001-2002 season. Such a top scorer has been stable in any strength, but after he came to Liverpool, although his performance was okay, in fact, he has only scored in the league so far. Three goals.
Although there is no problem in the data, it is certain that Cise has fewer opportunities.
In fact, in the game in front of Liverpool, Ciece has always been a passing player, and most of the opportunities are for Don Jack. Cise also admits that he is not as good as Don Jack. When there is a ball, he will always make the same choice as Gerard, that is, to pass the ball to Jack Don.
Once or twice, doing this in a row makes Cise's position more and more considered. Although Cise is arranged to be a center striker in this game, on the court, his running position is at most parallel to Don Jack, and sometimes behind Don Jack.
As a passer, he seems to be used to it.
But as the game progresses, after playing, Cise's position began to be slowly premised. Now with Birmingham's defense, he has completely become a center. When Don Jack was more involved in the team's attack, Liverpool's teammates naturally had one more goal to pass the ball, and Cise also got more opportunities.
There is a group of high-level teammates around him, and it feels naturally different. At Schalke 04, even if Don Jack can pass the ball, but when there is a chance, even if the opportunity is small, he will choose to solve the problem by himself, but now it's different. Passing the ball to his teammates not only reduces his pressure, but also this Some teammates will not lose the ball easily.
And Cecil is Don Jack's most trusted partner.
In the current situation, Don Jack has few opportunities near the penalty area, because Birmingham's full defense alone blocked more than half of the goal, so he passed more.
Outside the penalty area, the preferred passing target is Cisse.
Under the change of the situation, Don Jack found an opportunity. His first reaction was to look at Cisse's position. Again and again, he kept passing the ball into the penalty area. With so much effective support, Cisse's chances increased greatly. In just five minutes, he actually shot a tripod in a row and hit the door with two efficiently. Within the box.
"What bad luck!" After another shot didn't enter, Cise said with a little chagrin.
Don Jack patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Gibril, you will score next time!" This is encouraging. Don Jack also knows that Cise has scored very few goals recently. It's time to have a goal to prove himself. You know, there are also Baroche and Pangler behind him.
For this kind of competition, Don Jack knows very well that at the level of these people, Cise must be the strongest, and Baroche is also good, but this guy is not very adapted to Benitez's tactics. In addition to being a target that attracts the opposing players, it is difficult to have other room to play on the court, and Pangler... .. There is nothing outstanding, and the game experience is poor. This guy is really not trustworthy.
If you don't talk about friendship, the first choice of Don Jack's partner is Cise.
"Come on, Gibril, you will score!" He continued to encourage, "They can't attack the half at all, so you can shoot at ease!"
"Thank you for your encouragement, Jack!"
In fact, Ciccis was very anxious to score goals. Don Jack didn't score in only two games, and Ciccis did not score in three league games. In particular, he did not score for the team in the three games where Don Jack, Gerard and Barosh were all banned.
This kind of performance is really indescable.
After all, Jack Don is not on the field. He is the team's most main striker striker. It's really a little hard to say that such a player doesn't score in three games. Now he has a lot of opportunities. Cise fixed his face and thought that he must score in the next game.
"I'll do it." He said firmly.
※※※
After the game continues, Liverpool is still running like a machine. Under this operation, every player in the team plays its own role. Don Jack has almost become an all-rounder. Whether it is passing, dribble, shooting, in the penalty area, outside the penalty area, or even in the backcourt, it is possible to find him.
This kind of performance is really eye-catching.
In contrast, Cise is much inferior, but his shooting chances are a little more than Don Jack. Under the huge power gap, hard work will always pay off. What's more, Birmingham is not a strong team. A team that strives to defend hard, even if it defends with all its strength, how strict it can be.
In the 44th minute of the game, on the right side of the penalty area, Cowell passed it to Don Jack.
Under the corner of the penalty area, Don Jack's first reaction was to hit the goal, but there were too many Birmingham players in the penalty area, and there were two entangled players around him, so he couldn't shoot. Don Jack subconsciously looked to the side of the penalty area and found Cisse's position. Then he immediately stretched out his right foot. Don Jack had passed such a player several times before, and the first reaction of the Birmingham player was to be sealed on the passing route.
But this time, they were deceived!
Jack Don didn't pass the ball again, but just made a fake move. When his right foot fell on the ball, he suddenly reduced his strength and took it to the left side in disguise.
"Stop him!" At the coach's bench, Bruce shouted anxiously.
But this doesn't work. The two Birmingham players have been completely cheated. They have finished their movements and want to forcefully turn back. It is impossible for a short time. They are not as strong and flexible as Don Jack. A moment later, Don Jack turns into the middle and swings his feet in the middle of the penalty area - passing the ball. !
"I was cheated again..."
Two consecutive shots did not shoot. As the team's top scorer, this performance is very strange. Most people find it strange, not to mention the Birmingham player on the field. At the moment Don Jack raised his foot, two Birmingham defenders jumped up from the same place, but they found the black The boy didn't shoot, but pushed the ball to the space on the right side of the penalty area.
There, Liverpool's black striker Gibril Cise has thrown away from the defender and followed the foot on the edge of the football, and the football quickly flew towards the goal.
Although the Birmingham goalkeeper has been very focused, he was deceived by Don Jack twice in a row. There was something wrong with his position and did not seal the goal corner at all. The football flew directly into the goal from the near corner without any obstacles.
