I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 270 Offensive Battle! Europe's No. Youth Training! Crazy Manchester City! Walcott's Personal Show [Subscribe]

With the arrival of Christmas, 2012 has entered its final stage.

Various selections and annual summaries have also been released one after another.

The most eye-catching of course is the FIFA Ballon d'Or.

Before Christmas, FIFA announced the top three winners of the 2012 FIFA Ballon d'Or, which are still Messi, Ronaldo and Iniesta.

Even in fourth place is Xavi.

Despite the incident at the end of August, Lewandowski still failed to make it into the top three.

But he is ranked higher than the best player in Europe, at 5th place.

Gareth Bale is ninth.

Modric ranked 12th.

Ironically, Neymar, the Brazilian player who has only joined Barcelona for a few months, has reached 13th place.

The British media were generally very dissatisfied with this.

Who is Modric?
The core of the midfield of the European treble, but only ranked 12th.

How did Neymar deserve to be ranked 13th?
But FIFA's attitude is more serious than UEFA's, and it is even unwilling to come forward to explain.

Anyway, this is the list, believe it or not!
Yang Cheng and the Chinese people in Bayswater were mentally prepared for this, and their response was that no one was willing to attend the FIFA awards ceremony in January.

There’s no prize to be won anyway, so whoever wants to go can go!

As one of the most authoritative football media in the world, World Football magazine specially produced a very special feature report in its 2012 Christmas special issue.

Youth training!

World Soccer magazine believes that British football has been promoting youth training reforms in the past few years, but so far, the results have been minimal.

Therefore, this authoritative magazine used data from the Swiss football statistics agency CIES to compile and analyze the information of 98 players from 2286 clubs in the top five European leagues.

The so-called youth training is actually divided into two categories.

One type of youth training is when players are registered with a team for 15 years or more when they are between 21 and 3 years old.

If a player has been registered with two clubs for three years during these six years, he or she will be classified as a second-class youth training player.

Obviously, the first type of players are more valuable.

World Football magazine lists the top 10 clubs with the best youth training.

They are Barcelona, ​​Lyon, Real Madrid, Rennes, Manchester United, Bayern, Sochaux, Real Sociedad, Atalanta and Atletico Madrid.

Among them, Barcelona, ​​which ranked first, has exported a total of 36 first-class youth training players to the five major leagues.

Lyon exported 29 players and Real Madrid 27.

There is only one Premier League team in the top ten, that is Manchester United, which has exported a total of 20 players.

The most surprising teams for fans on the list are Sochaux from France and Atalanta from Italy.

There is no need to mention Sochaux in Ligue 1. Its ranking has never been very ideal, but the whole of France attaches great importance to youth training.

Atalanta's youth training in Serie A is obvious to all in the circle.

But this Serie A team has had bad luck in recent years.

As a veteran team in Serie A, Atalanta has indeed produced many stars, such as Montolivo, Pazzini and so on.

The young guards under Prandelli were also famous in European football.

But things took a turn for the worse in 2008, when Atalanta chairman Ivan Ruggeri suffered a stroke.

Italian football clubs have a typical characteristic, that is, they are family businesses.

For example, before 1994, Atalanta belonged to the Radici family, but from 90 to 94, Antonio Percassi was in charge of the club.

He is also a wealthy Italian native and has played football.

In 94, the Radici family sold their shares to the Ruggeri family.

But in 08, with Ivan Ruggeri hospitalized after suffering a stroke, his son Alessandro Ruggeri and daughter Francesca Ruggeri had a split over Atalanta.

At least Alessandro Ruggeri has no interest in running Atlanta.

Coupled with the poor environment of Serie A at the time, Atalanta was eventually relegated from Serie A in the 09/10 season.

It was in the summer of 2010 that the Ruggeri family decided to sell Atlanta.

But after shopping it around, they found that no one was willing to take over the club, which made the entire Italian football extremely embarrassed, because this is the club with the best youth training in Serie A!
In fact, no one knew that in 2010, Yang Cheng had secretly contacted the Ruggeri family in Atlanta through Italian channels.

At that time, Yang Cheng meant to acquire Atlanta in the name of Chinese capital.

But the Ruggeri family had no intention of selling the club to foreign capital, so both parties only tried it out briefly.

Finally, after much tug-of-war, Atalanta was sold to Antonio Percassi, who once helped the Lantici family run Atalanta, and was taken over by Antonio Percassi's son Luca Percassi.

The Percasi family acquired 76% of Atlanta's shares for only 1400 million euros.

Incidentally, both Perkasi and his son played football.

In the 10/11 season, Atalanta was successfully promoted to Serie A as the Serie B champion.

But in the 11/12 season, Italy was once again hit by gambling and match-fixing scandals. Several Atalanta players were implicated in gambling and were deducted 6 points, ruining their reputation.

This season, teams including Atalanta, Sampdoria, Torino and Joban have been deducted points due to gambling scandals.

Although Atalanta ranked 11th in Serie A after halfway through the season, it no longer has the glory it had when it was a young guard.

There have also been rumors that the Percassi family is pessimistic about the current situation in Atalanta and Serie A.

After all, the Percassi Group is not large, with only 850 employees and annual turnover of 4 million euros.

For the Percasi family, who are rooted in Bergamo, Italy, running Atalanta in the same city is more of a sentimental thing, but the current situation of Italian football forces them to seriously consider this business.

This is the case with Atalanta, Sochaux, Rennes, Real Sociedad, and even Lyon.

In fact, working in youth training in European football has always been a difficult and thankless task.

And in this report in World Football Magazine, a phenomenon was mentioned.

Among the top 10 clubs in youth training, there are 4 La Liga teams, 3 Ligue teams, and one team each from the Premier League, Serie A and Bundesliga.

This actually proves the success that Spain and France have achieved in youth training.

"But in the past few years, there has been another team that has stood out."

“That’s the Bayswater Chinese who is number 13 on the list!”

According to the data, there are 19 first-category youth training players in Bayswater Chinese team and 0 second-category youth training players.

In other words, so far, there are 19 players who came from Bayswater Chinese youth training and are playing in the top five European leagues. This is truly commendable for a team that was still in the third-tier league 10 years ago!
Why do you say that?

Just like Manchester United.

The reason why Manchester United can provide 5 players for the top five leagues is that in addition to players such as Giggs, Scholes, Welbeck, Cleverley, Fletcher and Evans from the team.

Like Shawcross of Stoke City, Phil Neville of Everton and so on.

There is even goalkeeper Zieler from Bundesliga Hannover 96.

Based on this list, it is easy to see that this is not true youth training for young players, but the results accumulated over the past ten or even twenty years.

Bayswater Chinese were still in the third-tier league 10 years ago. How do they provide players for the top five leagues?
According to an analysis by World Football magazine, among the players in the top three leagues in the English league system, players from Bayswater Chinese youth training have ranked first since 2011.

In other words, the Chinese in Bayswater suffered because they had a relatively short time!

But even so, among the 19 players from the top five leagues, Bayswater currently has 14 Chinese players in the team, ranking first in European football!

Similar to the Chinese in Bayswater are Barcelona and Real Sociedad.

However, these 14 players do not include John Stones and Harry Maguire.

It also does not include players such as Piszczek and Kyle Walker who made their mark at Bayswater Chinese but do not meet the youth training age requirements.

In other words, if all these are taken into account, Bayswater Chinese are truly the best youth training team in Europe!

In addition, the list of 19 youth players of Bayswater Chinese also does not include young players who have emerged in the team, such as Aaron Lennon, Andy Carroll, Neuer, Yaya Toure, etc.

Because they don't meet the standards of youth players.

World Football magazine believes that, although, judging from the statistics of the institution, Barcelona is the undisputed number one youth training factory in Europe, and has also cultivated youth training stars such as Messi, Iniesta and Xavi.

But in recent years, Bayswater Chinese Talent has become the club with the best youth training results in Europe.

With the best performance of the first team and outstanding results of youth training, World Soccer magazine believes that Bayswater Chinese can be regarded as a model for current European club management!

World Football magazine also made a prediction.

Over the past few years, the performance of Bayswater Chinese youth training teams has been getting better and better, and even every age group has frequently achieved outstanding results in some youth team competitions in England and even in Europe.

In addition, in the past few years since Yang Cheng took over as coach, Bayswater Chinese's youth training concept has always been at the forefront of European football.

“It is entirely conceivable that in the next few years, there will be more and more players coming from the Bayswater Chinese Youth Training Center.”

……

Before Christmas, the Chinese in Bayswater are as busy as ever.

In addition to training, the team also participates in various Christmas activities.

As the influence of the Chinese in Bayswater grows, more and more activities of various types are taking place.

As well as some events in Brent and the City of Westminster, there are also some events held in London and even by the UK government.

As the most influential club in the Premier League and in the world today, the Chinese at Bayswater need to shoulder these responsibilities.

What is different from previous years is that the Premier League held a special summit before Christmas this year.

Yang Cheng did not go, and was represented by Xia Qing and Adam Crozer.

The content of the summit was mainly about the financial fair play policy promoted by UEFA, which was implemented starting from the 13/14 season.

The Premier League attaches great importance to this and has been assessing the financial situation of each club over the past period of time.

Among them, many people think that Manchester City is the most dangerous, but now it has basically escaped the danger period.
This involves a lot of unknown financial operations.

Manchester City, for example, issued £1.69m of new shares.

The reason for issuing new shares instead of seeking bank loans is that the latter is a liability and will be included in the fiscal fair play policy.

In terms of commercial revenue, Manchester City's revenue suddenly increased from 6470 million pounds to 1.21 million pounds, an increase of nearly 100%, which is indeed quite terrifying.

But if you look closely at Manchester City's major sponsors, you can see where they came from.

Including the new shares, it was basically the Abu Dhabi consortium that paid for it.

Therefore, in the just-concluded 11/12 season, Manchester City's revenue reached 2.31 million pounds, which is approximately 2.9 million euros, ranking 7th in European football.

According to statistics, in the 11/12 season, Bayswater Chinese ranked first in the European football income ranking with 5.9 million euros.

In second place is Real Madrid with 5.126 million euros, and Barcelona is in third with 4.83 million euros.

Manchester United only has 3.95 million euros, ranking fourth.

Next are Bayern Munich, Arsenal, and then Manchester City.

It is worth mentioning that Chelsea and Liverpool are also among the top 10 teams in the list.

In other words, the Big Six of the Premier League have all entered the top ten list of European clubs in terms of revenue.

This is truly unprecedented!

Everyone is very confident that once the 13/14 season arrives, with the new broadcasting contract taking effect, the revenue of Premier League teams will increase further.

By then, the list of the top 20 European football revenues will probably become even more exciting!
At this summit, Manchester City was confident that it could pass its new fiscal policy.

Moreover, in the past few years, they have been investing in the construction of training bases and youth training systems, and have an additional 8 million pounds of various contracts that can offset debts.

Although Manchester City's losses have reached 2 million pounds, there should be no problem for the Blue Moon to pass UEFA's requirements.

The only thing worth noting is that Manchester City's salary suddenly exceeded 2 million pounds.

That is to say, their salary expenses accounted for 87% of their revenue.

This is already a very crazy proportion.

Currently, Manchester City has the highest salary expenditure in the Premier League, and Chelsea ranks second.

Despite the departure of Drogba, the Blues' salary expenditure remains high.

But Manchester City has already come from behind to overtake.

Therefore, at this summit, Premier League CEO Richard Scudmore also put forward an initiative, hoping that in the upcoming 13/14 season, with the increase in broadcasting fees, each club will be able to effectively control salary expenditures.

Over the past few years, the media has been saying that Premier League clubs are working for their players.

As long as the broadcasting fees increase, the players' salaries will immediately skyrocket.

Scudmore said the situation should be effectively curbed.

……

Before Christmas, there was another piece of news in the Premier League, that is, Chelsea finally changed its coach.

Di Matteo was able to stay in office after performing well in the last season.

But as Yang Cheng said, the situations faced when putting out a fire midway and coaching for a full season are completely different.

It turns out that Di Matteo is not qualified.

Benítez replaced Di Matteo as Chelsea head coach.

But Master Bei's coaching contract only lasts for half a year.

At the same time, Yang Cheng led the team to start training at the Brent Training Center.

As the British media said before Christmas, the situation for winning the championship is now very intense.

Bayswater Chinese, Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal are all looking forward to the championship.

Especially Ferguson's Manchester United.

Some media revealed that Ferguson publicly declared his determination to challenge for the league title at Manchester United’s Christmas dinner!

Manchester United is also full of fighting spirit and vows to kick the Chinese from Bayswater off the championship throne.

In an interview with media reporters, Ferguson repeatedly emphasized his confidence in the Christmas schedule.

"We will welcome 3 with a 2013- record!"

The biggest advantage for Manchester United is that their opponents in the three games during the Christmas period are not strong.

They are Newcastle, West Bromwich Albion and Wigan Athletic.

On the contrary, it is the Chinese in Bayswater.

The three opponents are West Bromwich Albion, Liverpool and Chelsea.

There are 2 strong dialogues.

This makes people secretly worry about Yang Cheng's team.

Many media even believe that if Yang Cheng fails to win in a strong dialogue, he will most likely give up his position as the league leader.

This will be a huge blow to the Chinese in Bayswater, who have dominated the Premier League for four years.

Yang Cheng and the coaching staff also attach great importance to it, so they concentrate on preparing for the game.

The biggest challenge of the Christmas schedule is that the team must play three consecutive games within a period of time.

例如今年，从12月26日到1月1日，总共7天时间，要踢满3场比赛。

This is indeed a considerable test.

Especially there are two games against Liverpool and Chelsea.

Rotation became inevitable.

But the question facing Yang Cheng is how to rotate?

……

October 12th, afternoon, Prudential Arena, London.

In the 19th round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese played against West Bromwich Albion at home.

Yang Cheng still used a 433 formation in this game.

But the team's rotation is quite strong.

Goalkeeper: Courtois;
Defence: Luke Shaw, Thiago Silva, Harry Maguire and Kyle Walker;
Midfield: Matic drops back, Aaron Ramsey and Modric in the middle;
Forwards: Hazard, Giroud and Walcott.

From this starting lineup, it is not difficult to see Yang Cheng’s response strategy, which is to use the main players to drive the young substitute players.

West Bromwich Albion is currently ranked 8th in the Premier League and is definitely not weak.

But the Bayswater Chinese are playing at home.

Before the game, Yang Cheng communicated specifically with several players including Walcott.

Especially the little tiger.

This season, Walcott has lost his main position in the league and his number of goals has dropped sharply.

This has caused him to be questioned, and there have even been rumors that Walcott is very dissatisfied with his current situation.

There were previous reports that many teams including Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City were interested in Walcott.

Even make an offer!
But Walcott made it clear that he had not accepted any offer from any team and he did not want to leave Bayswater Chinese.

"I've been playing here since I was 16 years old. I can ride my bike from home to the Brent training center every day. My whole family are fans of the club now."

"I won't leave!"

Before the game, Yang Cheng took Walcott aside in the locker room and whispered something to him.

"Once you get on the field, use your performance to prove it to all the fans present and those watching on TV!"

“You, Theo Walcott, are still the trump card of us Bayswater Chinese!”

At the beginning of the game, West Bromwich Albion adopted a 4231 formation and actively pressed away from home, trying to suppress Bayswater Chinese's opening attack.

And the facts have proved that the games on Boxing Day every year are always played worse.

The Chinese in Bayswater were not in good form from the start.

But this situation only lasted for 9 minutes.

In the 9th minute, Walcott and Modric made a combination outside the right corner of the penalty area.

Modric passed the ball to the right, Walcott quickly moved forward, caught up with the ball, and made a precise cross from the right.

The football drew a beautiful arc and landed accurately in the middle near the small penalty area line.

Giroud quickly moved forward, made a diving header, and headed the cross from the right side back to the right side of the goal.

The goalkeeper made a mistake in judgment and the football went into the net!

1 is better than 0!

The entire stadium suddenly erupted in thunderous cheers!

But what was even more unexpected was that just three minutes later, when Walcott got the ball outside the right corner of the penalty area, he suddenly started moving in the face of West Bromwich's defenders.

Double-teamed by three defensive players, Walcott ran quickly and dribbled the ball into the penalty area from the right corner.

But before the last defender, the little tiger was confronted and lost his balance.

As he was about to fall to the ground, Walcott hurriedly kicked the ball to Giroud.

In the penalty area, Giroud dribbled the ball with his left foot, dribbled past the defender, and then shot with his right foot. A tiger-like shot once again penetrated the goal of the Baggies.

2 is better than 0!

It was obvious that the Bayswater Chinese were not in very good shape, and West Bromwich Albion was not much better.

At the very least, Yang Cheng's team is playing at home, and the Knickers have to rush to the away game early.

By this point in the game, the situation had become increasingly clear.

But in the 17th minute, Hazard dribbled past three opposing players on the left and passed the ball into the penalty area. Giroud and the opposing defender competed for the ball in front, but no one was able to control it.

Walcott, who was lurking on the right side of the penalty spot, seized the opportunity.

The little tiger was seen with his back to the direction of attack. After stopping the ball, he turned around and shot into the goal.

3 is better than 0!

The entire Prudential Arena was boiling in an instant!

9 fans are cheering and shouting at the top of their lungs!

Standing on the sidelines, Yang Cheng himself did not expect that the game would go so smoothly.

Especially Walcott.

Yang Cheng really didn't expect that this kid would be in such a good state after the opening today!
But soon, West Bromwich Albion began to stabilize its position, especially strengthening the defense on the right.

The first half ended 3-0.

But after the change of sides in the second half, Walcott began to appear on the left after being closely guarded on the right in the first half.

In the 62nd minute, Thiago Silva made a straight pass from the backcourt, accurately sending it behind the left side of the frontcourt.

Walcott successfully made an offside move at an extremely fast speed, easily shook off all the defensive players, and in the 30-meter area of ​​West Bromwich, he kicked the ball off and drove straight into the goal with the ball, creating a one-on-one opportunity.

On the left side of the penalty area, facing the goalkeeper who was rushing out, the little tiger calmly shot into the far corner with his right foot.

4 is better than 0!

Scored twice!

The Sky Sports commentator couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

“At this moment, I seem to see Henry!”

What was even more unexpected was that in the 74th minute, it was Walcott who got the ball on the left.

Facing four West Bromwich Albion defenders, Walcott dribbled the ball inside from the left side of the penalty area and relied on his personal ability to complete a beautiful breakthrough while being double-teamed by four defenders.

Although Walcott lost his balance and slipped to the ground when breaking through the last defender, the opponent's defender also slipped.

This makes the originally stumbling movement look like a fake move to confuse the opponent.

Walcott was shorter, had quicker reactions and was more flexible. He stood up first and lobbed the ball into the goal.

5 is better than 0!

hat trick!

The little tiger rushed out of the court excitedly.

All the fans in the Prudential Arena stood up from their seats and cheered for him!

No one expected that Walcott, who has been under great competitive pressure this season, would choose to score a hat-trick in this crucial game on Boxing Day. He also provided two assists and directed five goals by himself, helping Bayswater Chinese to win a big victory over their opponents at home!

This made Yang Cheng, who was watching on the sidelines, very surprised and happy at the same time.

In the 75th minute, Yang Cheng replaced Walcott with Sterling.

When the little tiger left the court, he was given a standing ovation by all the fans.

One person directed 5 goals, and such a performance definitely deserves their applause.

Yang Cheng also walked to the sidelines and greeted Walcott as he walked off the court with a high five and a hug.

"Everyone and I are proud of you, Theo!" Yang Cheng affirmed his performance.

Walcott's technique is indeed not very good, it can only be considered solid.

But the physical confrontation ability is relatively poor.

This is his natural shortcoming.

Therefore, when Walcott is fighting with his opponents and is on the defensive, he can easily get into a tough battle.

In this regard, Gareth Bale is much better than him.

The Welsh are very good at physical confrontation.

But the little tiger’s characteristic is that he dares to fight and is willing to fight.

His technique is not very good, but he dares to dribble the ball. Although he stumbles and even feels a little awkward, the effect is good.

For example, a fall-over.

This has become the little tiger's signature move.

And as Yang Cheng said before, the little tiger is indeed very good at off-ball running and shooting.

This makes it no problem for him to serve as the deputy in the frontcourt offense.

过去5个赛季，沃尔科特在英超的进球数分别是8球、12球、15球、15球和19球。

You have to know that Little Tiger was born in March 89, so strictly speaking he is only 3 years old.

Being able to produce such performance and data, and being a youth training player and a local international player, such a player is not something that any team would give up easily.

……

After 19 rounds of matches, Walcott quickly occupied the pages of major mainstream media in the UK and even the world.

2 assists and 3 shots, one person directed 5 goals!
Sky Sports gave Walcott a full score of 10 after the game.

The comment is: Walcott's outburst led Bayswater Chinese to win their first victory in the devilish Christmas schedule.

In this game, the little tiger scored all his league goals in the previous few months.

Major British media have also expressed that Walcott is absolutely worthy of the starting position for the Bayswater Chinese.

After setting a personal single-season goal record last season, the number of goals this season has declined, which is more due to the rise of Hazard.

But Walcott's shot and goal conversion rate is as high as 32%.

In other words, he can score a goal with about 3 shots.

Such efficiency is simply astonishing!
More importantly, the player is also loyal to the Bayswater Chinese.

After the game, when interviewed by multiple media reporters, Walcott repeatedly stressed that he had no intention of leaving Bayswater Chinese.

"I can't find any reason to leave this club, I have everything I want here!"

As for the competition between himself and Hazard, Walcott said it didn't matter.

"I have a great relationship with Eden. He is a great teammate and the most talented player I have ever seen."

"Sometimes it's like this. Maybe recently, he's in better shape than me and cooperates better with his teammates, so he has become the main player."

"This has no impact on our friendship!"

"To deal with such a situation, I think the best way is to work hard to improve myself and give a better performance!"

Whether it was the media reporters outside, the Chinese fans of Bayswater, or Yang Cheng and the coaching staff, they all gave full marks to Walcott's statement!
Yang Cheng even said at the pre-match press conference before the home game against Liverpool, "Walcott has always been in my plan. All the rumors about his transfer are completely false."

Regarding this English player, Yang Cheng believes that he has a very special understanding.

"We all know that, in fact, over the past many years, English players have been relatively poor in tactical adaptability."

"But this problem does not exist with Walcott. He can play on the left, on the right, or even as a center forward."

"I even used him as a shadow striker in training and he did really well."

“This is very rare!”

Yang Cheng believes that Walcott, who is extremely fast and has a keen sense of smell, has a unique understanding and can always quickly grasp the coach's intentions and tactics.

Many media even believe that Walcott is a combination of Henry and Beckham.

Especially the cross from the right that assisted Giroud's goal, and several breakthroughs and goals from the left, all of which showed the figures of Henry and Beckham.

Yang Cheng also said with a smile that Walcott's idol is Henry.

……

After the 19th round of the Premier League, the Chinese team of Bayswater shined by defeating their opponents by 5 goals.

But Arsenal also defeated West Ham United 5-1 at home despite conceding a goal first.

Liverpool beat Stoke City 3-1 away from home.

Manchester City beat Sunderland 1-0 away from home.

Chelsea also beat Norwich 1-0 away from home.

Manchester United equalized the score three times in the home game against Newcastle after falling behind three times.

Finally, in the final stage of the game, thanks to Hernandez's winning goal, they narrowly defeated Newcastle 4-3.

Ferguson blamed the referee after the game, saying that the refereeing of the game was quite amateurish.

Ferguson also expressed dissatisfaction with Manchester United's inferiority to Newcastle in terms of ball possession and number of shots.

"It's like our players ate too much on Christmas last night and can't even run!"

“The overall feeling is just lethargic, which is terrible!”

But Ferguson also said that no matter how well or badly they performed, Manchester United got 3 points.

“This allows us to still maintain the pressure on the leaders!”

……

October 12th, afternoon, Prudential Arena, London.

In the 20th round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese faced Liverpool at home.

This is an open game!
From the first minute of the game, the two teams entered into a fast-paced offensive battle.

Liverpool wanted to control the tempo, but they simply had no way of doing it.

Just 80 seconds into the game, the Chinese players from Bayswater played a wonderful combination in the frontcourt.

After Toni Kroos got the ball in the midfield, he made a long pass to the right side of the frontcourt.

After Gareth Bale stopped the ball, he cut inside and passed it diagonally to the left side of the penalty area with his left foot.

Sterling quickly moved forward, met Gareth Bale's pass, and passed a low ball back to the front of the goal.

Lewandowski, who was heading the ball just now, suddenly jumped out from between Liverpool's two central defenders and calmly shot the ball into the goal before anyone else!
Even though Buffon is one of the world's top goalkeepers, he was still powerless in the face of such a close-range shot.

1 is better than 0!

The entire Prudential Arena was in complete carnival!

Just three days ago, Walcott led a 3-goal victory.

What now?
Just as the Bayswater Chinese fans had not yet recovered from the excitement and excitement brought by the previous goal, the home team players quickly created another opportunity on the field.

In the 4th minute, Javi Martinez seized an opportunity, suddenly dribbled forward, and sent a ball behind his back to the right side of the penalty area.

Gareth Bale quickly moved forward and used his body to forcefully push away Spanish defender Jose Enrique who was chasing back, and got to the ball first, but was disturbed by goalkeeper Buffon who was rushing out.

The Welsh player reacted very quickly. When he saw Buffon attacking, he realized that the angle of his shot was too small, so he immediately stopped, turned around, protected the ball, and dribbled back to avoid Skrtel who was returning to defense.

Because they were in the penalty area, Liverpool's defenders and goalkeeper Buffon did not dare to make any move on Gareth Bale.

Especially Buffon.

Having already set out, he could only block Gareth Bale all the way and prevent him from turning around to face the goal.

Once the Welsh player turned around, he shot directly into the empty goal.

Gareth Bale took two steps back and avoided Skrtel. When Lewandowski caught up, he chose to pass the ball back. The Polish center calmly shot the ball in the top area and once again penetrated Liverpool's goal.

2 is better than 0!

The whole stadium cheered again!
This looks like a massacre.

No one expected that Liverpool would have such a bad start!

But no one expected that the opening was too fierce. In the 10th minute, Liverpool suddenly launched a quick counterattack.

Rakitic made a straight pass from the midfield to Suarez at the front of the arc.

After the Uruguayan stopped the ball sideways, he broke forward and blocked Pepe with his body. At the same time, when Jose Fonte was trying to steal the ball, he suddenly shot the ball through the crotch of the Portuguese center back.

He suddenly accelerated, moved forward between Pepe and Jose Fonte, and made a low shot from the right side of the penalty spot in the penalty area, sending the ball into the goal guarded by Courtois.

1 is better than 2!

Liverpool fought back tenaciously!

Suarez's wonderful goal greatly boosted the morale of Liverpool players.

Especially when two goals were scored in just four minutes after the start of the game.

This goal can be said to have preserved Liverpool's confidence and hope!

Under such circumstances, the game became completely open.

Liverpool obviously realized that they couldn't defend.

The Chinese in Bayswater were afraid of Liverpool's counterattack and felt that the score of 2-1 was not stable enough.

More importantly, if we are satisfied with this score, how can we suppress Liverpool in the game?
Thus, the two sides started a wonderful round of offensive and defensive battle.

Obviously, Liverpool also realized that Jose Fonte was a major hidden danger in the defense line of the Chinese at Bayswater.

In the 16th minute, Suarez quickly moved forward again and received a straight pass from Gerrard on the right. Near the right bottom line in the penalty area, facing Jose Fonte, he made a very clever pass.

The Uruguayan striker managed to break through Jose Fonte's defense against impossible odds.

After passing Jose Fonte, Suarez made a cross along the baseline, trying to get the ball in front of the goal.

Torres started a little slower due to Piszczek's interference.

The two of them fought over it and both fell into the penalty area.

But Torres' shot hit Pepe's leg and fell to the right side of the small penalty area.

Suarez quickly followed up and volleyed the ball with his left foot, sending the ball into the goal again.

2 is better than 2!

draw!

At this time, the game was less than 17 minutes long.

All the fans in the stadium, even Yang Cheng and Mancini on the sidelines, were stunned.

No one could have imagined that this game would turn out like this.

In less than 17 minutes, 4 goals were scored!
Especially the Bayswater Chinese, who were playing at home, could not accept such a result at all.

So the home team began to exert their strength and launched a fierce attack on Liverpool.

In the 26th minute, Piszczek dribbled the ball quickly from the right and suddenly passed it to the middle. De Bruyne was fouled by Mascherano, winning the team a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt.

This position is a bit far from the goal, about 25 meters, slightly to the right of the center.

Gareth Bale naturally stood on the penalty spot.

In the last round, Walcott scored a hat trick and provided 2 assists, performing quite well.

As a good friend, Gareth Bale obviously also felt the pressure of competition.

More importantly, Bayswater Chinese are now under competitive pressure from teams such as Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal.

Gareth Bale hopes to help the team get rid of the entanglement of its competitors and establish a leading advantage as soon as possible.

After taking a deep breath, Gareth Bale took a quick run and kicked a swift butterfly ball with his left foot.

The football drew an elegant arc in the air, passed the wall of people, and its erratic direction confused goalkeeper Buffon and went into Liverpool's goal.

3 is better than 2!

Gareth Bale rushed out of the stadium excitedly, waving his fists excitedly towards the fans in the stands.

All the fans in the stadium also cheered for Gareth Bale!
But no one expected that just 2 minutes later, Suarez would dribble the ball on the right and create a corner kick opportunity.

Liverpool quickly took a tactical corner kick, Gerrard made a cross from the right, and Skrtel scored with a header.

3 is better than 3!

"Oh my god, this game is so exciting!"

"The last time the Chinese at Bayswater conceded three or more goals in the Premier League was at the beginning of 3, two years ago!"

"I really didn't expect that after two years, another team would be able to break through the Bayswater Chinese goal three times."

"You know, last season, Bayswater Chinese only conceded 9 goals!"

"But this season, Yang Cheng's team is indeed not stable enough in the back line."

"Especially when the team has to adopt a rotation strategy."

The first half ended with a long shot from Gerrard, but it went too high.

During the half-time break, Yang Cheng gave positive comments on the team's performance.

Despite conceding three goals and a draw, he was quite satisfied with the players' performance and condition.

But he also reminded everyone that the overall strength of the three midfielders consisting of Rakitic, Gerrard and Mascherano is still very outstanding.

On the other hand, the Chinese players of Bayswater, Toni Kroos, Javi Martinez and De Bruyne, were under pressure from their opponents and lost their position in the midfield and could not control the tempo.

De Bruyne is still a little younger after all.

But Yang Cheng still gave encouragement.

After the second half, the pace of the game between the two teams slowed down a little.

But in the 64th minute, Daniel Agger committed a handball foul outside the penalty area, giving Bayswater Chinese a chance for a free kick in the frontcourt.

This time the position is slightly to the left.

Toni Kroos took the free kick, but it went just over the bar.

But in the 73rd minute, Modric, who had just come on as a substitute for De Bruyne, made a straight pass from the right side of the frontcourt. Gareth Bale made a high-speed run forward, successfully got past the offside, stopped the ball and broke into the penalty area, then shot with his left foot and penetrated Liverpool's goal again.

4 is better than 3!

Liverpool is not going to accept this.

Mancini began to make continuous substitutions, with Aubameyang and Balotelli being substituted one after another.

The Chinese in Bayswater retreated appropriately and strengthened their defense.

Especially Javi Martinez.

The reason why Yang Cheng replaced De Bruyne and kept Javi Martinez was that he hoped he could assist more on Jose Fonte's side.

If necessary, retreat to the center back and it becomes a three-center back tactic.

This is actually the only solution.

Jose Fonte's personal ability is indeed still a little lacking.

Especially when facing world-class attackers like Suarez and Balotelli, Jose Fonte had a hard time coping.

In the 83rd minute, Mascherano fouled Modric, who came on as a substitute, on the right side of the penalty area.

This gave the Bayswater Chinese another free kick opportunity in the frontcourt.

He had to commit a foul, otherwise Modric would have broken through him.

As the last defensive player in the midfield, once he is broken through by Modric, the next pass will be to the player behind him.

So, Mascherano had no choice but to foul.

Gareth Bale stood on the penalty spot again, and once again made a wonderful butterfly kick, which penetrated the goal guarded by Buffon.

5 is better than 3!

hat trick!

The entire Prudential Arena was filled with cheers!
