Chapter 463 I saw through the conspiracy of the madman Li

"...Good evening, dear viewers in front of the TV. I'm Duan Xuan, the host. Now I'm at Wembley Stadium, one of the most famous stadiums in England. I'll give you a live commentary on the upcoming English League Cup final of the 08-09 season. The two sides are the Magpie Legion Newcastle and the Reds Liverpool!"

When night falls, the moon stars are rare!

At 12 o'clock in the evening, the ecstasy voice of Brother Duan Xuan, who had a melancholy and full of magnetic surnames, appeared on time in the living room of thousands of households on 9.6 million square kilometers of China.

On this night, there are destined to be countless old and young fans who know the ball and don't know the ball. They sit quietly in front of the TV and watch the upcoming game... Because, on this night, the man who brought the miracle of football to Chinese fans will challenge him to the top Premier League at Wembley Stadium. The first championship trophy after the game... And his opponent is Benitez, who created the miracle of Istanbul!

This is undoubtedly a heavyweight duel intertwined with resentment and hatred!

On the TV screen, there has been a scene of players from both sides warming up on the court.

Wembley Stadium is full of people, and the attendance rate is full. Countless huge mages and Red Army flags are fluttering in the north and south stands, like stubborn sailboats wandering in the storm... Countless fans hold the club's scarves high, in "COME-IN-HOME-NEWCAST LE and YOU-WILL-NEVER-WALK-ALONG are like the generous singing of huge waves. The north stand is the black and white waves of zero times, while the south side is endless red, shocking red... "... The players on both sides are warming up, today The atmosphere at Wembley Stadium is so solemn that I think that I have come to the World Cup final in a trance. Although the gold content of the champion is average, this game is highly valued in England because of Li Tongfan and Benitez, Newcastle and Liverpool, even on this night. , the whole Europa is paying attention to the progress of the game... "... In the stadium stands, in addition to the fans of the clubs on both sides of the game, many neutral fans have poured into the Wembley Stadium. The reason is very simple, because the past various finals have proved that any madman Li's participation will become wonderful. This has almost become the consensus of European fans..."

"... Before the start of the game, our reporter once interviewed the fans who were waiting to enter. A couple of old fans in their sixties made a special trip to London from Georgia. They said that they were crazy crazy Li fans. They came to London to be able to watch this crazy Li's important game on the spot, and When I heard that the reporter was also from China, I excitedly asked to take a photo with the reporter. At that moment, I clearly felt the pride of being a Chinese fan..."

Taking advantage of the players' warm-up, Duan Xuan talked endlessly to the Chinese fans in front of the TV about the frenetic atmosphere at the scene.

After five or six minutes, the warm-up players on the court walked back to the player channel one after another. After the last simple tactical arrangement and dressing of the head coach before the game, the game will officially thunder drums on the night of the enthusiastic Wembley Stadium... At this time, suddenly... Commentator Duan Xuange seemed to have been stepped on. The red-eyed rabbit with its tail screamed in panic: "This...what's going on? We just got the starting list of both sides. The 11 starters of Newcastle, which Li Tongfan has been strictly confidential, finally surfaced, but the truth is absolutely shocking..."

On the TV screen, Newcastle's starting list was played. In the stunned expressions of all the Chinese fans who knew the ball, Duan Xuan in the TV continued to analyze the scream tone of 'stepped on the tail' - "... It's a little unbelievable, Li Tongfan Once a great change was made to the formation of his Magpie Legion. The previous 4-1-2-1-2 formation turned into a 4-1-2-2-1 formation. The one who appeared in the single forward position was [Lightning Killer] Michael Owen, while the recent [Ukrainian nuclear warhead] Shepchenko, who has scored a continuous goal in excellent condition, is Surprisingly, he didn't appear in the starting lineup!"

"... Of course, there are more surprising things. This time, Li Tongfan set up two front waists for the Magpie Legion, which is the first time in his past coaching history... It is worth mentioning that he appeared in the front waist side by side with Alan Smith, but not in the Newcastle team. Another midfielder - Argentine genius Pastore, but French midfielder Musa Sissoko, who has not had many opportunities to play this season! Putting a back waist in the front waist position is really a heavy subversion..."

"... The two wings are [Angel's Wings] Juan Mata and Prince Porti, the midfielder Fernando Gago, and the four defenders have not changed much. On both sides of the division of David Thornton and Marcelo, Senderos replaced the injured Steven Taylor, and Manzini formed a double gate for the central defender, and then ......"

"...The next candidate in this position will undoubtedly be the biggest suspense that Li Tongfan brought to the fans and the media in this game. France's new generation goalkeeper Hugo Loris did not start. Instead of Loris, it was a series of games after joining Newcastle in the winter transfer period that just ended. David De Gea, an 18-year-old Spanish player who has never played before!"

"This change is definitely the craziest of all Li Tongfan's crazy changes in history..."

By this time, Brother Duan Xuan's voice was still full of uncontrollable surprise: "From the front court to the midfield, and then to the back court, the winning streak before the Magpie Legion was changed by Li Tongfan overnight. I don't know what this man who has been called the [God on the side of the football field] is playing. Idea, but I'm sure that his opponent Benitez, like us at this moment, must be deeply confused..."

............Wembley Stadium.

Duan Xuan's words are not wrong at all. After seeing Newcastle's starting list, Benitez was instantly confused... "How can this be? Shepchenko, who is in a hot state, didn't make the first place? Is Owen actually a single center? Although the header of [Lightning Killer] is excellent, if you want to become a bridgehead for the team to destroy the city, your physical condition is still far from good, right?

Benitez looked at the Newcastle players on the court and found that there seemed to be a thick fog in front of him, so that he could not see the truth hidden by the madman Li after the fog... Benitez wanted to grab his hair and grab it fiercely to wake himself up.

But when his chubby fingers touched his bare forehead, he found how stupid the decision to get his hair was for him... "Crazy Li, what the hell are you doing?"

At this time... "force--"

Irish referee Foley Croft blew the whistle at the beginning of the game. The final game of England in March in the 08-09 season finally began under the gaze of thousands of eyes... Liverpool of the Red Army took the lead in kick-off!

Benitez's best job in the game is his 4-4-1-1 formation - Spanish center Fernando Torres is at the front, behind him is Red Army leader Gerard, and the other four midfielders are Kuit, Alonso, Mascherano and Ryan Babel!

Four defenders Dosena, Aggar, Carragher and Aberoa, goalkeeper bald Reina.

On the field.

After the opening whistle sounded, Torres hit the football to Gerrard behind him.

Next, Liverpool was not in a hurry to organize the attack, but kept passing the football back, and began to patiently control the ball in the first half to test the attack strategies and methods taken by the opponent today... This is the tactical arrangement made by Spain's fat Benitez long before the game.

Because in the face of a 'tricked' enemy like the madman Li, it is always good to be careful. If you are eager to suppress the attack at the beginning, it is easier to leave a chance for the opponent. In the 08-09 season, Newcastle scored in the first 5 minutes after the start of the game, and Benitez had to Defense... The game is slowly moving forward in the 'shout war' set off by fans on both sides!

And on the sidelines, Benitez is nervously observing Newcastle's offensive routine today!

Benitez was confused by the sudden change of the madman Li. He knew that he must figure out the reason as soon as possible before the madman Li's conspiracy succeeds. Otherwise, it may still be a humiliating defeat waiting for him and Liverpool!

One minute...Two minutes...Five minutes...Benitez carefully observed Newcastle's tactical play. Gradually, his rich tactical experience told him that Michael Owen, the single striker of the madman Lee, was likely to be just a cover to attract defense, and Newcastle's real killer. The mace should be midfielders such as Juan Mata and Alan Smith behind Owen... Before the game, I watched the video of the game that I don't know how many times he watched the game and told Benitez that Newcastle's real strength is not only in their luxurious front line, because in terms of the scoring ability in the midfield, in the whole Premier League. In the league, the Magpie Legion is second only to Manchester United and Chelsea in the Premier League!

Benitez was patient and continued to carefully observe the trend of the game. Soon, he saw something again - as he expected, [Lightning Killer] Owen did not take the ball or forcibly turn around and shoot like a traditional center in the game, but more through his own active running, without the ball. The state of tearing Liverpool's defense line... The real last blow is Alan Smith, who is hidden behind Owen, with super long-range shooting ability, and Juan Mata, who is almost invincible under his feet!

In five or six minutes, Owen touched the ball less than 10 times.

Alan Smith and Juan Mata behind Owen have not only fully enjoyed the team's ball rights many times, but also easily caught one shot. Although both of them were long-range shots outside the penalty area, for Benitez, this is enough to explain all the problems... Finally, The only thing that Benitez couldn't understand was left - what was the intention of the madman Li to put the stupid French black Musa Sissoko in the front waist position?

In the past five or six minutes, Benitez has been able to clearly know through observation that this 1.86 meters of French black man, in addition to being strong and fast, whether it is stopping the ball, passing or attacking, he is with a really qualified front. The waist difference is too far... Putting such an out-conformity player in such an important midfield position is simply to let the rooster lay eggs. Don't expect him to send a well-known pass or shoot in person... However, Benitez did not dare to be careless at all, because, after all, the one who made such a decision was A man who is almost invincible on the edge of the football field has never made a mistake in the past years... So Benitez decided to continue to observe.

And in the following observation, Benitez finally saw a clue, because he found that this Musa Sissoko had a great advantage - excellent defense!

In the limited number of frontal battles after the start of the game, Benitez found that Sissoko could not fall behind when he defended Gerard and Alonso head-on... Musa Sissoko's performance of running back and forth infinitely suddenly reminded Benitez of another person - Mohammed Sissoko !

However, that Sissoko is a Malian. When he played in Liverpool, Mohammed Sissoko's super strength in defense once made him Benitez' first choice in midfield defense... Thinking of Marisissoko's performance in Liverpool and his own against Mohammed- Cissoko's use, and then thinking about the list of the starting eleven sent by the madman Li in this game, especially when he thought of the unexpected change in the position of the Newcastle goalkeeper, Benitez suddenly lit up in his heart. Could it be... Is it because the reason why the madman Li made such a tactical change is not because he wanted to make it? What a sudden attack, but because... because I have no choice but to?"

Benitez thought about everything, and suddenly there was a sudden cheerful feeling. In the stunned expression of the assistant coach, the Spanish fat man hit his thick thigh fiercely and smiled: I understand, I finally understand... It must be like this - I don't know why. The reason is that Newcastle's original goalkeeper Hugo Loris suddenly couldn't play, and after losing a veteran like Gwen, the reality forced the madman Li to send the 18-year-old child Hedeya who had just transferred to the team in such an important game... But obviously, the madman Li Hedea's level is not at ease.

So, he had to find a way to make up for this shortcoming, and in the end, the madman Li thought of the way - to draw the 'war' away from Newcastle's own half to the greatest extent... So, the madman Li decided to change the formation!

He sacrificed a striker, cleverly put a physically strong and well-defensive player in the front waist position, and strengthened Newcastle's counterattack ability in the opponent's half. On the one hand, he escorted Smith and Mata and others, and on the other hand, he could try to make football stay in Liverpool's half for most of the time... So It can not only strengthen the defensive and offensive ability of Newcastle's midfielder, but also protect the rookie Hedeya from facing the test of Liverpool's long-range shooting to the greatest extent. At the same time, it can limit Liverpool's proud back attack power to the greatest extent... It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone!

"That's right, that's right, wow hahaha, it must be! I know! Haha, I finally saw it, madman Li, now you are going to die, hahaha..."

Spanish chubby is complacent.

In this way, when the whole game went to the tenth minute, the 'tactical master' Benitez finally relied on his rich tactical knowledge and top on-the-spot insight to 'see through' the crazy Li's 'despicable, shameless, cunning and hateful' tactical conspiracy... Next, Benitez made two decisions.

First, he asked his assistant coach to quietly inquire about the reason why Hugo Loris and others did not appear, in order to confirm his speculation.

Second, he himself quickly came to the sidelines and began to adjust Liverpool's tactical play according to the previous idea... In a flash, Liverpool's tactics changed significantly - the defense line paid a little less attention to Owen, and no longer focused on Owen's man-to-man defense, but paying more attention to the defense. The overall cooperation and the second attack that killed Newcastle... Under the leadership of experienced deputy captain Carragher, Liverpool's defense has become a 'chael martyr'. No matter how 'honest and cute little gentleman' Owen seduces and teases, he is cold and indifferent... Then, the loss of Owen's In the way, Alan Smith and Juan Mata, hidden behind the [Lightning Killer], leaked under the eyes of the Liverpool defenders, and there was no better chance to take the ball and shoot as before!

At the same time, in terms of attack, Liverpool also changed - they began to consciously reduce ground cooperation, but frequently crossed the midfield through Alonso's precise long pass, sending football to Newcastle's penalty area... And Gerard, Torres, Kuit and others, also You can no longer pursue cooperation and better shooting opportunities, but use your long-range shooting ability and personal skills to shoot as soon as possible... Because Newcastle's goal will be a rookie!

The effect of Benitez's change is immediate - if the two sides played evenly in the first period of time, then after Benitez made a gesture and made a tactical change, the Red Army soldiers quickly gained the upper hand as if they had a 'small blue pill', and the gunfire rumbled. For a while, the wind was blowing in front of Newcastle's door... The 13th minute.

"... Alonso's long pass, accurately found Babel on the side, the Dutch winger broke through... pass!! Torres' volley shot... This ball... slightly off the right column, almost a little bit!"

The 14th minute.

"... Gerrard's header ferry... Torres... Leaning on Manzini, he pushed the football back... Gerrard won the ball and shot furiously!!! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it's a little short. The football flew up to the stands on the crossbar. This time, Newcastle's 18-year-old new goalkeeper Hedea still didn't have time to react..."

16th minute.

"...This is Liverpool's corner kick opportunity... Alonso comes to take the penalty... The front point!! Torres rubbed gently... Carragher!!! Oh, it's a little bit worse. If you're not lucky enough, maybe Newcastle is 0:3 behind!"

The commentators' voices in different languages spread all over the world by radio. The fans who followed the final felt that their hearts were like a restless spring ball, banging and picking... The nursing children could see it. Newcastle is in danger!

"... Spanish tactical master Benitez showed us his terrible on-the-spot command ability. In just ten minutes, he seemed to see through Li Tongfan's strange tactical arrangement. After the adjustment, Liverpool completely controlled the situation and rhythm of the game and performed more aggressively!"

There is no lack of worry in the tone of Duan Xuan, the big head: "Although I am not a tactical master, I can't help but say my opinion. Li Tongfan's raid obviously failed. Now although Newcastle has invested a lot of troops in the front court, it can't because of the presence of No. 17 Musa Sissoko. Close connection, resulting in a bad offensive effect..."

"...The best way now is to withdraw Sissoko to the back position and form a double back with Gago, so as to curb Liverpool's offensive..."

Sester, another commentator and a loyal fan of madman Lee, gave the same advice - "... Newcastle is in an unfavorable situation... It is said that three hours before the game, Shepchenko, Crespo and Hugo Loris, who were already on the starting list, suddenly changed their surnames to the flu. , with a high fever of 39 degrees, he could not play the game, so that the madman Li had to temporarily change the team's tactics and starting arrangements. Seeing that this emergency did affect the team's combat effectiveness..."

In fact, not only the commentators, but also the Newcastle fans at Wembley Stadium began to worry.

What is happening in the scene now is almost a situation that has not happened since the madman Li coached Magpie. He was oppressed to such an awkward level by his opponent, and even made the magpie fans involuntarily suspect that the eleven people playing football on the court were not Owen and others, but the others wearing black and white sword shirts. A stranger... passive, so passive!

This is really rare in the coaching career of crazy Li!

People are waiting for the madman Li to make a change quickly. The appeal of the fans, the advice of the commentator, and even the satellite broadcast will give a close-up to the madman Li standing on the sidelines with every attack of Liverpool... However, Li Tongfan has not changed for a long time!

... "Wahahahaha, of course he won't make a change..."

Benitez is laughing, laughing proudly.

After instructing Shepchenko, Loris and others that they were indeed unable to play because of an unexpected fever, the Spanish Fatty finally fully confirmed his previous speculation!

Benitez turned his head to the assistant coach around him and said, "Don't worry, I bet that at least until the end of the first half, crazy Lee will not change Newcastle's tactics. Because the current formation and tactics are the best way he can think of in the absence of a major general... Hey hey, any change is not worth mentioning in the face of absolute strength. This time, Yanjing is helping Liverpool. Otherwise, why did Shepchenko and Hugo Loris suddenly have a high fever before the game? What about it? Ah ha ha ha ha..."

It seemed to feel the excitement and ecstasy of the head coach, and the Red Army fans in the stands also fell into madness.

It is absolutely unimaginable for them to be able to force the madman Li to this extent in such an important game before the game... The red turbulent roll of the south stand of Wembley Stadium, like a huge oncoming wave, breathtaking momentum, as if to dye the clouds all over the sky into the color of flames... ...The momentum of the Liverpool people has climbed to an incredible height with the progress of the game!

And Newcastle fans spent the long second after second in shock... the 35th minute of the game.

Liverpool is stopping their ninth corner attack in the first half, and the main corner kick is still Alonso.

Because they had an advantage on the scene, Liverpool left only Abelo and Lucas in the backcourt this time, and the others rushed forward to participate in the attack... The whistle sounded and the corner kick was sent out.

There was a mess in Newcastle's penalty area. Carragher and Manzini jumped high in the front, but neither of them reached the football. Liverpool competed for the top in the middle of the Danish central defender Agger, but under the interference of David Thornton, he was not able to reach the football... Alonso's corner kick was Stay away!

The Liverpool players waiting there are Dutch winger Babel!

Watching the football flying over, Babel put a POSE in the air, and then something strange happened. In the air, he suddenly screamed and fell to the ground with twitching his hands and feet as if he had been electrocuted by millions of volts of high-voltage wires... Behind Babel, there was an inexplicable Brazilian full-faced Brazilian full-back. Marcelo!

"Forcing..."

The whistle of referee Foley Croft sounded clearly.

"... There was a mess in Newcastle's penalty area... Oh, Babel fell to the ground. It seems that Marcelo, the defender of the Magpie Legion, pushed him behind his back, but such a performance is too exaggerated?"

"...The Dutchman dressed himself up as a dying poor man. Let's see how the referee judged it. I think it should definitely be a fake fall. Babel may be self-defeating and get a yellow card..."

On the field.

The Liverpool players surrounded the referee under the leadership of Gerrard, and the Newcastle players also caught up under the leadership of Alan Smith to defend something... In an instant, the Wembley Stadium was full of endless boos!

The referee separated the players around him, then walked to the Dutch winger Babel, who was still lying on the lawn and twitching. He bowed his head and asked a few questions. Then he turned around and made a gesture in the direction of Liverpool's bench, signaling the stretcher to come on the field... Then, Foley Croft made an uproar. The action of
