Chapter 372 The Great Victory 1

At the end of the game, Benitez was also relieved, but it was endless. The UEFA Champions League was a two-round match. A week later, the team went to Turin, Italy, to play Juventus again. That was the game that decided to advance.

Many people persuaded Benitez to use Don Jack, otherwise Liverpool can only go to zero if they want to win.

However, on this point, Gerrard admitted after the game that Juventus' goal in the second half will make the second round very tense. "We are very happy for the victory. If we tell us this result before the game, we will be happy to accept it. The atmosphere on the court was very good. We scored two goals, but losing one goal was a heavy blow. I'm sure Carson himself is disappointed with this, but he blocked a goal in the second half, which is also one of the best saves I've seen this season. Carson will learn something. Whether it's him or Dudeck, they must keep the goal in the second round.

After talking about the game we just passed, Gerrard said, "I don't think we will aim for zero to zero. We also have the ability to score goals on the road. As long as we keep the door, we will enter the top four, which will be wonderful.

Haipia also said: "Now it's only half-time, and the score is two to one. We will have a tough away game next week. We have to work hard to get good results. We are not afraid of anyone. Juventus is a good team, but today we show that we can beat them.

Liverpool looks excited, and Juventus is not idle.

The Italian media has been dissatisfied with Juventus' game. For this, Capello believes that the opening is too bad. "We were not playing at all in the first half hour. We only saw Liverpool on the field. We lacked the necessary aggression and were not decisive enough to grab the ball. After that, we successfully counterattacked and missed many good opportunities. I like Juventus in the second half, and we even deserve a draw. In any case, an away goal should be a good result for the second round.

Capello finally summarized the reason why Juventus was in a poor state at the beginning. "After two weeks of rest, it is normal for the players to be a little strange. As the game progresses, the boys have found the rhythm of the game well."

This is the reason for losing.

The vigorous game is finally over.

The English media have different views on Liverpool's victory, but most of them are surprised, as analyzed by The Sun: "... It is such an incomplete British and quasi-first-class team that dares to be wild in front of the absolute European first-class Juventus, allowing the "old woman" who only conceded two goals in 420 minutes, but conceded two goals in the first 25 minutes of the game. Today, when defensiveism is almost the golden rule of the so-called successful team, Liverpool used the first 25 minutes of rudeness to say, 'In addition to defense, there is also barbarism'.

"In addition to defense, there is also barbarism!!!"

Don Jack put down the newspaper in his hand and thought about the past game. He found that he was still a little unsettling. Anyway, he was also a member of Liverpool. Even if he had a conflict with his teammates, he belonged to Liverpool this season, but Benitez did not let himself play.

But Don Jack never regrets!

Everyone has their own bottom line, not to be influenced by others. Adhering to their own principles is the bottom line of Jack Tang, which is more important to him than the championship. He will not compromise, and will never abandon others for his own interests. These are the principles that Jack Tang adheres to.

And now, he is to be himself.

About where to go next, whether to stay in Liverpool or go to other clubs, Maximilian has been thinking about it for him. What he needs to do now is to train well. If the team can use himself, Don Jack will play. If the team doesn't need himself, he insists on playing in the team. .

Many people are concerned: "What about next season!?"

It's already April, and the transfer window opened in May. Anyway, if you want to leave, you can think about it now. In fact, Jack Don has long been determined to leave, but there is no need for further consideration. If this happens, Liverpool is equivalent to being insulated from himself, no matter Head coach Benitez is still other teammates, such as Carragher, Gerrard and others. Don Jack will definitely not take the initiative to admit his mistake. That's not what he can do.

Maybe he will still be friends with Gerard in the future, but now, at least before leaving Liverpool, he will not take the initiative to contact them.

April is very important for Liverpool.

In the April schedule, there are not only the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League with Juventus, but also five rounds of the league. The opponents are Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Portsmouth, Crystal Palace and Middlesbrough. In addition, the FA Cup semi-final is also going to start. Liverpool's opponent is a gunner who has passed all the way. Senna.

Such an event is really challenging for Liverpool.

Not to mention the current situation, even if Don Jack can play, a total of eight games in the third-line match in April will almost make Liverpool collapse. What's more, Benitez insists on letting Don Jack stay in the reserve team to train. If there is only one less ordinary player, there is only one less, but Don Jack is different. It can be said that he alone has at least two other players, because Don Jack has basically played the whole game in a season, and there are no injuries. This is just an analysis from the time of appearance. If his performance is included, it is not an exabom to say that Don Jack can support a team alone.

Obviously, such a schedule makes the media concerned about how Benitez will deal with it.

Liverpool has just completed a 'miracle' and defeated Juventus at home. Now it is Benitez's turn. Before playing against Manchester United, no reporter asked Benitez's attitude. They all know that the Spaniard is extremely stubborn and will definitely not let Don Jack play.

"... Our players are very confident that in the most difficult time, the team will try their best to play every game and strive for the honor they can get. In an interview with reporters, Benitez said so.

The next day, Liverpool played against Manchester United at home.

Few people are optimistic about Liverpool, which has just experienced a big battle, but after 90 minutes, the score on the field is still zero. In the end, with a solid defense, Liverpool struggled to achieve a draw. This league score is extremely important. With only a few rounds left and a big difference from Chelsea, Liverpool Club has targeted the second place in the league.

First, leave it to the people of London....

And this point makes Liverpool still stable in the second place. Even if they do not win in three rounds of the league, Manchester United will still have a six-point gap with Liverpool. If Manchester United wants to catch up with the points, it not only needs their own performance, but also depends on Liverpool's state.

After playing against Manchester United, the whole Liverpool team rushed to Turin.

But this time, Benitez is even more melancholy. Not only is the whole England not optimistic about Liverpool, the whole Italy is not optimistic about Liverpool, but even God is against Liverpool. In Liverpool's team in Turin, there is one less person, that is the team's captain Gerrard.

Liverpool's trip to Turin was inherently dangerous.

In addition to various away factors, Liverpool, who suffered from injury this season, lost another general before the game. Captain Gerrard could not play due to injury. He will only stay in Liverpool to watch his teammates fight through TV. When he heard the news, Don Jack actually felt a little relieved. In Liverpool, he and Gerrard have always been It's a good friend. No matter what the reason, both of them can only watch live TV in Liverpool to cheer for the team.

Don Jack can't play, Gerrard is injured again, and Juventus 'get up' again!

Although Juventus were almost robbed of three points by Fiorentina in the weekend's league, the tenacious old woman tied the score three times after falling behind three times, successfully regaining one point and keeping the qualification to keep pace with Milan.

For this game, Capello greatly praised the fighting spirit of his disciples: "From a psychological point of view, it is very important for us to equalize the score three times, and the spirit we showed in the whole game is even more valuable." In the current Champions League war, Capello inspired his disciples to exert this tenacious fighting spirit: "Our team members are very tenacious, and their unyielding fighting spirit has penetrated into Juventus's blood."

These words are all morale-lifting!

Benitez will also say, "We have a tenacious spirit! The team is full of injuries, but only one person is left, and we will continue to fight!"

Of course, in the case of only one person, I'm afraid the referee will not let Liverpool continue to fight...

Juventus has more than just a coach. Liverpool doesn't have Gerrard, but Juventus has Nedvid. Before the game, Nedvid said, "In the first round, we learned an important thing. We can't sleepwalk in the first half of the game. We must score goals and make sure that we don't concedes."

Next, Capello pointed out that in order to ensure that the ball is not conceded, Liverpool's set-piece must be prevented. "Our team is not high enough at present, and their free kick is very dangerous."

In a word, Juventus was excited to hear that Gerard could not play either.
