Chapter 99 The Miracle Night at Anfield: China's Su's libero midfield style of play amazes the world?
February 20, 2014, 10:2 AM.
With only two days left before the official start of the 27th round of the Premier League, Wenger led the entire Arsenal team on a flight and landed on time at Liverpool International Airport.
Although Arsenal's Champions League knockout stage match is just four days after this round of league matches, Wenger still chose to focus all his energy on the league after weighing the pros and cons.
Unfortunately, even if Wenger's Arsenal didn't have such a large number of injuries, he wasn't entirely confident of advancing to the next round against the defending champions, Bayern Munich!
And now?
With a depleted roster, he only had two options: choose the league with the better chance of winning the title.
After straightening his crisp white shirt, Wenger strode into the airport terminal, the first to enter, followed by Su Hao, who was wearing headphones and chewing gum.
“SU!!!”
"Su Hao!!!"
"Su!!!"
Along with his top-notch performance in the Premier League and his exceptionally good looks that would put him among the top three in world football, not to mention the meticulously edited photos of Su Hao showing skin (celebrating by taking off his shirt) in The Sun.
Unsurprisingly, in less than a month, Su Hao gained a large following of young female fans throughout England.
Whether they have tattoos or not, or whether they have lip, nipple, or genital piercings, as long as they are between 16 and 23 years old and follow football or The Sun, Su Hao's good looks and muscular physique are indeed fatally attractive to them!
Sure enough, as soon as they arrived at the airport terminal, Su Hao's name overshadowed all his teammates.
Even Ramsey, who was previously hailed as Arsenal's most handsome player and had the largest female fan base, was taken aback by Su Hao's massive fan base.
"Oh my god! Does Suarez have that many fans?"
Ramsey asked in surprise, while Giroud, standing beside Ramsey, shrugged, giving a look that said, "What did you think? We're used to it."
"This guy probably has close to 50 followers on Facebook."
As Su Hao walked towards the excited, seemingly breathless fans, Ramsey, who loves social media, muttered to himself.
However, what Ramsey didn't know was that Su Hao hadn't activated any of these things yet, but he already had over three million followers on Sina Weibo in China.
The fans' attention was only on Su Hao, but the reporters had a different perspective.
After Su Hao explicitly refused to be interviewed, the reporters immediately turned their attention to the professor.
Arsenal vs. Liverpool, a clash between Premier League powerhouses, is always a hot topic. In addition, this match could very well decide the final winner of this season's Premier League title, so reporters are really hoping to get some juicy scoops from Wenger.
However, to the reporters' disappointment, even though Wenger agreed to their interview, the professor still gave a calm and unexciting response.
Liverpool is a great team with a glorious history and great strength. Their manager is also an excellent manager, and he is looking forward to the showdown with Brendan Rodgers at Anfield.
In short!
The professor is all about stability, so stable that reporters don't even have a chance to create any buzz.
However, the professor praised Brendan Rodgers and his Liverpool, while the Liverpool side had a different story.
Perhaps Arsenal's lack of depth has made Brendan Rodgers arrogant, or perhaps he still harbors resentment over Wenger's €4000 million + 1 offer for Suarez at the beginning of the season, which humiliated him, or perhaps Brendan Rodgers is deliberately playing mind games!
In front of the media, Brendan Rodgers expressed his confidence in winning the match with a very arrogant attitude.
"Yes! We will win the game! This is Anfield Stadium, and we will not let any opponent take even a single point from here. We will use our most powerful attack to rout Arsenal!"
The media were thrilled!
With Brendan Rogers's statement, they'll naturally have something to do again in the next couple of days.
Before long, major English newspapers such as The Guardian, Manchester Sports, and The Times officially launched a frenzied hype surrounding this crucial battle.
Even at the end, news broke that Wenger and Brendan Rodgers almost got into a fight over a contract dispute between Suarez and the Eiffel Tower.
However, no matter how loud the noise was outside, the professor's response remained the same.
The professor silently led his Arsenal team in practicing his newly devised tactic of switching attacking midfielders to the wings again and again!
And just like that, two days passed quickly.
At 4:00 PM on February 22, 2014.
Although there were still four hours until the match officially started, the plaza outside Anfield Stadium had already been filled with countless Liverpool fans.
Moreover, what's most interesting is that next to this seemingly densely packed Liverpool fan base, there were quite a few Asian faces that inexplicably appeared.
Yes!
With Su Hao's recent success in the Premier League, Chinese fans, who had never had a Chinese player in a major European league before, naturally flocked to England as if it were Chinese New Year.
They came to England for no other reason than to see firsthand how their national team's star player would perform in the Premier League.
As for tickets and stuff!
Given the undisputed purchasing power of Chinese consumers worldwide, doubling or tripling the price is absolutely no problem.
Even some front-row tickets with good seats and close-up views of the players have been scalped for more than 10 times the original price. However, even so, given the massive number of Chinese people, the demand still exceeds the supply.
Even now, some resourceful travel agencies in China have started offering special tour packages for the Su Hao competition.
A single away or home game ticket, marked up several times over, plus a multi-day tour of several attractions in England, can be sold by these travel agencies for tens of thousands of dollars. Yet, despite these outrageous prices, they are sold out the moment they are released!
It is precisely this exaggerated phenomenon, which has even boosted the tourism industry, that has allowed all Chinese people to truly appreciate the real value of the world's number one sport!
Chinese fans in the square were posing for photos wearing Arsenal jerseys, while Su Hao took some time to give a pre-match interview to CTV5.
The tourism industry has jumped on Su Hao's coattails, and CTV5, whose advertising slots for the year were already sold out, naturally tailored an unprecedentedly long live broadcast program specifically for Su Hao.
Yes!
It's outrageous. The match was supposed to start at 3 a.m., but CTV5 started the pre-match hype at 11 p.m., the prime time slot.
What about Su Hao's individual highlights this season, professional football commentators' full analysis of Su Hao's last match, and now this exclusive pre-match interview?
Of course, Su Hao wasn't working for nothing by spending time on this obviously profitable interview. After Mendes discussed it with CTV5's advertising department, Su Hao would get at least 20% of the revenue from the commercials before the interview.
Although 20% may not sound like much, this is the first time that CTV5, as the leading state media outlet, has ever shared money with its interviewees.
Based on this title alone, there's little doubt that Su Hao is now the number one sports star in China!
that's it!
After a long three-hour wait.
Liverpool time 7 pm!
The bus carrying the entire Arsenal team finally slowly drove into the inner passageway of Anfield Stadium.
"Su Hao!"
"Su Hao!"
"Su Hao!"
Upon seeing the familiar Arsenal logo, the Chinese fans who had been waiting for a long time in the square naturally all rushed to the bus.
Such a large number of fans, especially when playing away from home!
Even the most knowledgeable professors were momentarily stunned by Su Hao's current popularity.
The professor was well aware of Su Hao's current influence in China, but he really couldn't have imagined that a league held in England, thousands of miles away, would attract so many Chinese fans!
Frenzied shouts and fluttering red flags.
For a moment, Wenger even felt that if things continued to develop this way, his Arsenal might not have any away games in the future.
After all, everyone knows that the largest number of immigrants in any part of the world is Chinese.
Wenger began to envision a bright future for Arsenal, while the Arsenal players on the bus looked on with envy at Su Hao, who was interacting with his fans outside the window.
There's no way around it; in the eyes of these established second-tier stars, Su Hao's current popularity is probably among the top three, or even number one, in the Premier League, let alone within the team.
After all these years, apart from Cristiano Ronaldo who has already left, they have never seen anyone else with such an exaggerated fan base!
It took a full ten minutes for Arsenal's team bus to break through the frenzied crowd of fans and finally enter the Anfield stadium's internal parking lot.
After straightening his collar, Wenger strode over to the pre-match press conference.
Wenger is well aware of how the media has been hyping up Brendan Rogers's remarks these past few days.
Wenger also knows how those football media figures who have been predicting Arsenal's collapse again halfway through the season since the winter transfer window have evaluated this match.
The professor's lack of response was not because he was truly afraid of Brendan Rogers due to a shortage of troops, as some people claimed.
The professor simply didn't want to waste his precious time on this pointless verbal sparring.
But
That was before, but this pre-match press conference is different.
Here, he wouldn't give Brendan Rodgers any chance to discredit his Arsenal, and in a pre-match press conference where he could take the initiative to disrupt the opponent's mentality, the experienced Wenger wouldn't remain silent any longer, would he?
So, the professor, who was already determined to give Brendan Rogers a hard time, embarrassed him in his very first speech.
The reporter was clearly asking the professor about his thoughts on the game.
The professor, however, began to talk about what he considered the spirit of Liverpool!
“When I was very young, I heard a quote from a great manager: ‘Football is not a matter of life and death, but it is more important than life and death.’ From then on, I knew that there was a very strong team in England called Liverpool, and that the great manager who said that was Bill Shankly!”
“Since then, whether it’s Mr. Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan, Mr. Kenny Dalglish, or even Rafael Benitez who created the Miracle of Istanbul, they have all continued Liverpool’s never-say-die spirit!”
"In my opinion, this inherited spirit is precisely what has enabled Liverpool to keep moving forward in difficult situations!"
"However, some people simply don't understand what 'never giving up' means. Their narrow understanding, or their literal interpretation, is that 'never giving up' means making grand pronouncements to everyone before the game even starts, saying that your team will definitely beat the opponent!"
"Even if the opposing team he's talking about has earned the respect of all his predecessors!"
The professor was, after all, a professor. Although he didn't mention Brendan Rogers sitting next to him at all during his speech, Brendan Rogers' face turned red with anger after the professor finished speaking.
After the professor finished speaking, the reporters below the stage immediately erupted in an uproar.
For journalists, what could be more exciting than a professor's erudite and satirical remarks?
Everyone watched with bated breath, wondering what kind of counterattack Brendan Rogers, whose face was already flushed red, would launch.
but
To the reporters' disappointment, Brendan Rodgers may indeed be all show and no substance. He had previously boasted to them that he would easily defeat Arsenal, but when he was in front of Wenger and subjected to such ridicule, he hesitated for a long time before finally managing to utter something like, "This is Anfield Stadium, and my team is ready to beat our opponents!"
In this first round of direct confrontation, the difference in skill between the two was immediately apparent.
The professor undoubtedly dominated Brendan Rogers at Anfield.
However, although the two head coaches' abilities had already been determined at the press conference, everyone knew that this was only the beginning.
The real competition will take place on the field.
The entrance to the home team's locker room.
Brendan Rodgers, who was thoroughly outplayed by Wenger at the press conference, took a long time to adjust before finally opening the locker room door.
Yes, Brendan Rogers was angered by Wenger.
Especially the way he praised the former Liverpool manager in front of him while simultaneously belittling him for being uncultured.
For Brendan Rodgers, who aspires to become a legendary Liverpool manager by winning the Premier League title this season, this statement really hit a nerve!
then
Brendan Rogers, who was holding in a lot of anger, naturally vented all his frustration on the tactical arrangements!
According to Brendan Rodgers, from the start of the match, his Liverpool team would use the most frantic attack to let that damn professor experience the terror of Anfield!
Brendan Rodgers was aggressively deploying his attacking tactics, while in the away team's locker room not far away...
The professor, who had won a resounding victory at the press conference, patiently explained to each member of the team what they needed to pay attention to in this game, as always.
After all, this was the first official match using his new tactics.
The professor is genuinely worried about potential mistakes in the middle and right lanes!
However, the professor has come to a realization these days.
With the team suffering from numerous injuries, regardless of the future outcome, he and his players just need to keep fighting.
After all, without a real, massive investment to guarantee a minimum and a truly deep bench, winning the Champions League title isn't something you can just win with sheer belief!
7:45!
Urged by the staff, the players from both teams finally stood in the players' tunnel.
This time, perhaps because Tottenham's previous penalty had really worked, Su Hao did not hear any more racist verbal attacks.
Liverpool fans may only have one Champions League trophy at most.
Moreover, not only was Su Hao unharmed, but the group of Chinese fans who were clearly seated in the Liverpool supporters' section of the stands were also not harassed.
Seeing this, Su Hao was surprised to find that Liverpool fans seemed to be much more civilized than those bastards in London.
No wonder Liverpool has such a huge fan base in the country!
Of course, Su Hao also knew that the game hadn't started yet. If he scored a goal later, his own fans would be celebrating among the crowd of fans, and things might get messy.
However, seemingly taking this into account, the staff at Anfield Stadium are already arranging security there.
Liverpool time 7:59 pm local time!
The highly anticipated Premier League match between Arsenal and Liverpool, which has been eagerly awaited by countless fans, has finally entered its final countdown!
"Zhuang Dian'er Tai!"
"Zhuang Dian'er Tai!"
"This is a live broadcast of the 27rd round of the 2013-2014 English Premier League!"
"The players from both teams are now in their respective halves of the field!"
"The referee is checking his watch too!"
"Beep!!!"
"With the referee's whistle!"
"The competition has officially begun!"
"First, let's look at the starting lineups for both sides!"
"Arsenal's starting goalkeeper, wearing the traditional yellow away jersey and attacking from left to right: Szczesny!"
"Defenders: Gibbs, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Sagna!"
Midfield: Kante and Arteta form the double pivot, with Su Hao up front!
"Three forwards: Podolski, Giroud, and Ramsey!"
Against Liverpool, Wenger still played his most familiar 4-3-3 formation, with Ramsey, who had recovered from injury, replacing Walcott!
"On the other side, Liverpool's starting goalkeeper, Simon Mignolet, is attacking from right to left in his traditional red jersey!"
"Backcourt: Jon Flanagan, Martin Skrtel, Mamadou Sakho, Glen Johnson!"
Midfielders: Jordan Henderson, Steven Gerrard, Lucas Leiva!
"Forwards: Daniel Sturridge, Luis Suarez, Raheem Sterling!"
"First and foremost, Liverpool has possession of the ball!"
At Anfield Stadium.
When the referee blew his whistle, the more than 50,000 Liverpool fans immediately erupted in a deafening roar.
Amidst the frenzied shouts, the entire Liverpool team, following their manager's instructions in the dressing room, pressed their entire formation directly towards Arsenal without any hesitation.
Suarez flicked the ball behind him, and then he, Sturridge, and Sterling all rushed into Arsenal's backfield.
Gerrard, who received the ball, quickly passed it sideways to Jordan Henderson, who was following up beside him, before Giroud could pounce on him.
The moment he received Gerrard's pass, Jordan Henderson sent a long pass to the left wing before Su Hao could get close.
In that position, Daniel Sturridge had already controlled Sagna and brought the ball down safely.
"Liverpool's pace of attack is very fast!"
"Brendan Rodgers' team has scored an astonishing 73 goals so far this season!"
"And now, Daniel Sturridge and Suarez, who are receiving the ball, have accounted for 35 of those 73 goals!"
"The biggest test for Arsenal's defense in this match is this SAS duo."
Seeing Liverpool so determined to target Daniel Sturridge on the left flank, commentator Zhan Jun expressed his concern.
Forehead.
Although Zhan Jun is a well-known Liverpool fan, after Arsenal acquired his compatriot Su Hao, he immediately switched sides without even considering it and joined Lao Huang's Su Hao fan club.
On the field!
Just as Zhan Jun reminded Arsenal to pay attention to the combination of Sturridge and Suarez.
Sure enough, after receiving the ball, Sturridge immediately set his sights on Suarez, who had suddenly come diagonally from inside the penalty area.
Without any hesitation, the instant Su Hao closed in, Sturridge immediately made a diagonal pass and then ran sideways towards Arsenal's center.
Suarez, who received the ball from Sturridge, didn't hesitate. The moment the ball reached him, Suarez, with his back to Sturridge, immediately flicked it with his heel, sending it directly to Sturridge's face.
A perfectly coordinated two-on-two play!
Suarez and Sturridge easily found a good opportunity at the edge of Arsenal's penalty area.
It was another quick kick!
Sturridge blasted the ball straight toward Arsenal's goal!
"That ball is dangerous!"
"Suarez delivered a brilliant backheel pass to Sturridge!"
"A powerful shot!"
Zhan Jun, who was in the commentary booth, shouted with some concern.
Similarly, the more than three thousand Arsenal die-hards in the stands who had traveled a long way were all stunned into holding their breath by Sturridge's kick.
Yes, this is Anfield Stadium, one of the most intimidating home stadiums in the world!
If Arsenal fall behind from the start, they'll be in real danger today.
Fortunately, Sturridge's shot, while powerful, lacked accuracy.
The football eventually cleared the crossbar and went out of bounds.
"With just four passes, Liverpool easily earned their first scoring opportunity of the game. It has to be said that Liverpool's attack is indeed the best in the Premier League right now!"
"Yes, Mr. Huang, as I said before, the Liverpool team built by Brendan Rodgers is already very mature in attack, and that's with Coutinho on the bench. If Coutinho were to coordinate and organize in the middle, Liverpool would have even more options for attacking!"
"In short, I think if Arsenal can't effectively contain Sturridge and Suarez defensively, this game will be a disaster."
The sudden plane crash caused a collective sigh of regret among the more than 50,000 Liverpool fans at Anfield.
Meanwhile, Wenger, standing in front of the Arsenal bench, angrily yelled at Sagna, who had just failed to keep up with Sturridge.
Before the match, he had reminded Sagna countless times to mark Sturridge closely and not let him have easy scoring opportunities, but what was the result?
Less than three minutes into the game, Sagna almost watched Sturridge get off to a dream start.
The game starts again.
Arsenal's attacking opportunities!
Because of Su Hao's height advantage, Arsenal has been choosing to pass the ball directly to the middle when taking goal kicks during this period.
This time, Szczesny delivered a long kick as always.
Near the center circle, Su Hao rushed to the landing point immediately. However, to Su Hao's surprise, apart from Gerrard running over to fight him symbolically, Jordan Henderson, who had been watching him closely, remained firmly in his position right from the start of the game.
Of course, Gerrard's attempt to contest the high ball with himself resulted in him stumbling and watching as Su Hao steadily passed the ball to Kanté, who had followed him.
As soon as Kanté received the ball, after seeing Su Hao's approximate running direction, he naturally passed the ball back quickly without any delay!
However.
Liverpool's tactics, which they had been practicing for some time, have now officially come into play!
Just as Su Hao received the pass from Kante again, Jordan Henderson and another Liverpool midfielder, Lucas Leiva, who had been standing still without any reaction, suddenly rushed towards Su Hao from the left and right.
Even Gerrard, after observing Kanté's movements, rushed at him from behind instead of moving forward.
A three-on-one attack?
Su Hao was a little stunned for a moment!
That's fucking outrageous!
He had thought that after the English media's hype, other teams would be looking to have someone mark him closely during matches, but he really didn't expect Liverpool to be so ruthless!
How could they possibly gang up on a 17-year-old?
Moreover, three people rushed towards him from different directions at high speed, which gave him no chance to even pass the ball.
Left with no other option, Su Hao could only hook the ball with his right foot, intending to stabilize it first before trying to catch it.
However, as soon as he stopped the ball, Lucas Leiva immediately hooked it over with his foot. Not only Lucas Leiva, but Jordan Henderson also pressed against him the moment Lucas made his move.
Add to that Gerrard's harassment from behind!
Su Hao struggled for less than 5 seconds before Liverpool's three-man attack successfully took the ball from his feet.
The ball control rating of 85 is indeed very strong, but under the pressure of Liverpool's three defenders...
Let alone 85, even Ronaldinho might not be able to break through under these circumstances!
"Ouch! This ball!"
"Liverpool were really well-prepared! The moment Su Hao received the ball for the second time, three players quickly formed a pincer movement!"
"Henderson made the steal!"
"Send the ball forward directly!"
"Gerald!!!"
The roar of the crowd at Anfield Stadium began.
The moment Gerrard, the spiritual leader of the Reds, led Liverpool on a counter-attack, it seemed as if the soul of the stadium began to resonate!
Moreover, Gerrard didn't hold onto the ball after receiving it. Seeing Kante rapidly approaching him, Gerrard smoothly pushed the ball diagonally to the feet of young Sterling on the right wing.
At 18, Sterling was not yet the player who would only play "happy football" in the future. At the peak of his speed, with just one explosive dribble, Sterling shook off Podolski, who was trying to intercept him immediately.
And before Gibbs could pounce on him, he passed the ball across to Suarez.
Liverpool's counter-attack speed is incredibly fast!
It's almost to the point where Arsenal's already dilapidated and aging defense simply can't keep up with their pace!
At this moment, Suarez, who had just received the ball at the edge of Arsenal's penalty area, had already raised his right foot as if drawing a bow and arrow.
Seeing that Suarez was about to take a shot, Koscielny had no choice but to lunge towards him.
only!
To Koscielny's dismay, Suarez swiftly withdrew his right foot the instant Koscielny lunged at him, and changed his shot into a pass!
Just push the ball forward gently like that!
The ball darted past Koscielny and appeared at the feet of Sterling, who had just passed the ball to Suarez.
at this time!
There was no one left to stop Sterling as he faced the hastily attacking Szczesny.
Sterling unleashed a powerful shot!
The football just grazed past Szczesny's fingertips and finally slammed heavily onto the net.
"Beep!!!"
The referee blew his whistle and pointed to the center circle with both hands to indicate that the goal was valid!
“GGGGGG—OOOOOO—AAAAAA—LLLLLLLLL!”
The DJ at Anfield Stadium launched into a typhoon-like roar the moment the referee blew his whistle.
And it was amidst the roars that had echoed countless times at Anfield Stadium that the entire stadium descended into utter madness.
Less than 10 minutes into the game!
Liverpool capitalized on their midfield press and executed a textbook counter-attack to successfully change the score!
The fans went wild!
Sterling, who scored his sixth goal of the season, celebrated with a stylish knee slide along the baseline in his excitement.
Meanwhile, in front of Liverpool's substitutes' bench at the same time!
Seeing that the tactics he had painstakingly prepared were so simple, they broke through Arsenal's goal.
Brendan Rodgers, who had just been furious with Wenger at the pre-match press conference, naturally felt relieved and raised his fists and roared in Wenger's direction.
Since he's already fallen out with Wenger, he doesn't care whether the media writes about him disrespecting the elderly after the match.
Wenger saw Brendan Rogers' arrogant celebration and, although he was very unhappy, the professor still did not respond.
He knew very well that things on the field could only be resolved on the field.
So the professor threw himself into his work, and while the Liverpool fans were celebrating, he called over Gibbs, Sagna, Kanté, Arteta, and Suho.
Liverpool's attack is too intense, he has to do something!
"Hey! What did I tell you? Arsenal's defense is really weak. Sagna and Gibbs are no match for Stewart and Sterling!"
"Yes! There is indeed a gap. Arsenal's defense in the middle is still okay, but Liverpool doesn't even try to go through your middle. They just pass the ball directly to Gerrard and then overpower you on the wings. And if you concentrate your forces on the wings, Gerrard still has long-range shots in the middle! This game is indeed going to be a bit difficult for Arsenal!"
"It's just that Walcott and Wilshere are injured. If both of them were available, Arsenal could at least put some pressure on Liverpool in attack!"
They were down by one goal in less than 10 minutes.
In addition, this is Anfield Stadium, which means it starts from this moment.
Arsenal have truly entered their most difficult half of the season so far.
15th minute of the match!
After receiving the ball, Su Hao did not dare to continue dribbling forward and passed the ball to Ramsey on the right wing. However, Ramsey, who had already shown promise in training, inexplicably followed his previous habit and rushed diagonally into the middle during the match.
Moreover, after Su Hao moved to the wing, Ramsey did not pass the ball immediately, causing Arsenal's attack to come to an abrupt end before it could even reach the wing.
Liverpool launched a counter-attack from the spot, and if Kante hadn't made a crucial tackle to clear Sterling's ball out of bounds at the right moment, Arsenal might have conceded another goal.
Arsenal's attack failed, so Liverpool naturally launched another frantic offensive.
This relentless attack finally paid off in the 25th minute of the match.
This time, Gerrard again transitioned the ball through the middle, and Stewart on the left received the ball and made a quick attack.
And before Sagna could close in on him, he passed the ball to Suarez.
He controlled the ball and then used his right foot to flick it slightly to the left. Suarez, who would become the strongest center forward of the MSN era, bypassed Arteta and curled a shot from the edge of Arsenal's penalty area.
The football drew a beautiful arc in the air, finally bypassing the diving Szczesny and disappearing into the top corner of the net.
"Beep!!!"
With the referee's whistle, Anfield Stadium erupted into a frenzy once again.
Countless Liverpool fans began a wild celebration.
Meanwhile, on the field, Suarez, baring his prominent front teeth and grabbing his collar, passionately roared at his own fans in the stands.
2: 0!
Liverpool extended their lead.
And this time!
Brendan Rodgers, who already sensed that he might need to massacre Arsenal at Anfield, once again arrogantly raised his right fist in the direction of the professor.
"Ugh! It's a defensive problem again!"
"Arteta was outplayed by Suarez on that play! Arteta was defending Suarez's pass, and he really didn't expect Suarez to be able to turn and curl such a beautiful shot under those circumstances!"
"Arsenal are down by two goals before halftime!"
"And the most crucial problem is that Arsenal's defense was in complete disarray, and Ramsey on the wing and Suarez in the middle failed to link up! Coupled with Liverpool's heavy double-teaming of Suarez in the middle, Arsenal's attack was paralyzed!"
"At the end of a storm is a golden sky!
And the sweet silver song of a lark!
Walk on through the wind!
Walk on through the rain!
"
Their attack blossomed across the board, giving them a two-goal lead, while their defense completely shut down the Chinese player, Suarez, who had been touted by countless media outlets as the second Cristiano Ronaldo in the Premier League!
Under these circumstances, the more than 50,000 Liverpool fans naturally began to happily sing the Liverpool anthem that was already ingrained in their bones!
And accompanying the battle anthem were, naturally, Liverpool's relentless attacks that sent shivers down the spines of Arsenal fans time and time again.
Suarez + Stewart + Sterling!
The 3S combination during this period was indeed the strongest in the entire Premier League!
Moreover, with such a frenzied momentum, Liverpool's third goal came very quickly afterward.
40th minute of the match!
It was another counter-attack from Liverpool.
Ramsey, who had switched positions with Su Hao in the middle, was a bit too confident and wanted to break through Liverpool's double-team on his own.
As a result, Henderson made a decisive sliding tackle to take the ball from his feet.
After receiving the ball, Henderson made a diagonal pass without hesitation. After bypassing Kanté's central defense, Sterling once again single-handedly broke through Arsenal's left flank.
Finally, after a skillful two-on-two with Suarez, he scored his second goal of the match with a well-placed shot.
"boom!!!"
The moment the referee blew the whistle!
The excitement at Anfield Stadium had reached its absolute peak.
Countless Liverpool fans then began waving their red scarves in a frenzy.
The Liverpool flags waving everywhere seem to be proclaiming the Reds' strength to everyone!
"It's over! There's no hope left! The defense has completely collapsed! And the attack is showing absolutely no improvement!"
"This match should be a foregone conclusion!"
"Down by 3 goals at halftime, and at Anfield no less! It's Arsenal's familiar second-half collapse pattern!"
"Without substantial financial investment, it's impossible to go all the way in the modern football season with just a championship-contending squad!"
"I think Wenger should seriously consider his investment next season. If he continues to only plan to secure a Champions League spot with minimal investment, then I think..."
-
【Ugh! It's hopeless, we're down by 3 goals at halftime, how the hell is there any way we can come back? And the only team in history to have done that is their own opponent!】
-
[Arsenal, Arsenal! Look at this, this is what happens when you're unwilling to spend money. How many years has it been since you invested in the defense? And you're still thinking you can dominate all three competitions with the same squad? That's pure wishful thinking!]
-
Poor Su Hao, he had a really tough time today. He's so tall, yet he had to go to the wing to make room for Ramsey! And the worst part is, when he went to the wing, Ramsey wouldn't even pass him the ball!
-
[Hey, didn't we say we shouldn't pass the ball to Su Hao? Didn't you see Ramsey getting double-teamed even when he went to the middle? He genuinely couldn't pass it out!]
-
[Damn it, Arsenal! I'd already ordered a Cadillac, and now you've wiped out my down payment! Damn it!]
-
[Waaah, upstairs bro, you only lost a down payment, but I lost half my house! Goodbye everyone, I'm going to the rooftop. I bet everything on Arsenal, and they conceded three in this half! Waaah, I'm leaving. Remember to take care of my wife!] The Liverpool anthem is playing wildly, and red flags are waving everywhere.
that's it!
As the halftime whistle blew after 45 minutes, the entire Arsenal team walked dejectedly toward the players' tunnel.
Meanwhile, some of the Arsenal die-hards in the stands quietly left the stadium after witnessing their team's dismal performance.
It's not that they don't love their team anymore, but that they really don't want to see their beloved team being humiliated like this in front of Liverpool fans!
"Hu! Hu! Hu!"
In the locker room.
This was the first time Su Hao had ever seen the entire team so completely silent.
Although they had lost games before, this was the first time they had ever experienced being completely dominated like this!
However, it was just when everyone on the team felt like they were suffocating.
The professor, who was under the most pressure, finally spoke up!
"Hi! Children, it was my fault, I apologize!"
His first words were an apology that took everyone by surprise.
It was clearly their terrible defense and ineffective offense that allowed the team to fall behind by three goals.
But the professor, who should have been criticizing them, or even turning on his hair dryer like Ferguson, apologized to them instead.
这 是
"I was too simplistic! I only thought that we could use a completely new tactic to catch them off guard in attack, but I forgot that we were facing Liverpool, currently the Premier League's most prolific scorer!"
"With all our energy focused on defense, we really can't think about how to build our offense within new tactics!"
"But kids! Things are different now! We're down by three goals."
"Since the score is already like this, why should we waste all our energy on defense?"
"Su! There's no need to stick to switching roles with Ramsey anymore. You can organize things entirely according to your own ideas!"
"And Ramsey too."
It's a very strange scene.
Arsenal were already down by three goals!
But inside the locker room.
The professor, however, showed no dissatisfaction and began to comfort everyone.
The professor didn't even mention man-to-man defense, which he had been emphasizing before!
The professor kept encouraging the Arsenal team to readjust their mindset and then, just like in previous training sessions, to practice the attacking tactics they had been working out on the training ground.
"Hey! Sagna, old man, are you too tired to run anymore? Why didn't I see you cross the half-court line even once in the first half? Were you thinking of going home early or did you go to Queen with that bastard Gibbs again?"
In the crowd, Sagna, who had been dejected and self-pitying, feeling that he was no longer the Arsenal super right-back who could strike fear into the hearts of his opponents, suddenly blushed after Wenger exposed his past.
"Ha ha."
A joke, and miraculously, brought a few bursts of laughter to the previously lifeless Arsenal dressing room.
And now!
Everyone then turned to look at the professor, who remained as gentle as ever even though the team was playing so poorly.
Just watching and watching
The slightly hunched body, the pale hair, and even the wrinkled face made the group of people unable to laugh.
"Boss! Don't worry, the competition is only halfway through, and we haven't lost yet!"
Just when everyone was lamenting how cruel time had been to this man who had worked so hard for Arsenal for so long,
Captain Arteta suddenly stood up and said to the professor.
气势
This thing can be really amazing sometimes.
It is not something that belongs exclusively to the victors; sometimes, even the losers can, in a moment of despair, possess it as if they have hit rock bottom!
Just like everyone sitting in the away team's locker room right now!
Anfield Stadium remains as glorious as it was 15 minutes ago.
The chants of more than 50,000 people continued, while the Liverpool players on the pitch whispered and laughed, as if they had already planned to end the game early so they could have a good celebration afterward.
On the other hand, Arsenal...
Everyone wore an expression that was hard to decipher—whether it was despair or something else.
It seems that all anyone could think about was Arteta's words: "The game is only halfway through, and we haven't lost yet."
This includes Giroud, Podolski, Ramsey, and Su Hao, who was caught in a three-man attack by Liverpool!
"Beep!!!"
The referee then blew the whistle to officially start the second half of the match.
Giroud passed the ball to Suho behind him and then strode towards Liverpool's backfield.
Podolski made a quick forward run down the left flank, while Ramsey waited for his chance to strike.
Su Hao slowly dribbled the ball forward!
Just like in the first half, Liverpool's double-team came rushing towards him just past the center circle.
However, this time Su Hao did not choose to fight head-on. Instead, Su Hao turned around and passed the ball directly to his back before Jordan Henderson and Gerrard could attack.
Arteta's location.
Then Su Hao rushed straight to Ramsey's position on the right.
Ramsey, on the other hand, moved towards the middle.
Everything seemed the same as before, but who knew that after Arteta got the ball, he didn't pass it to Su Hao, but instead passed it to Gibbs who had followed up on the left wing.
Arsenal actually launched an attack down the left flank?
After this series of maneuvers, Liverpool's two central midfielders immediately found themselves in trouble.
Brendan Rodgers assigned them the task of playing what appeared to be the Chinese player Su, and they certainly accomplished that in the first half.
Moreover, even after that Chinese border crossing, they were still able to keep a close watch on Ramsey as always.
But now the problem is...
With possession on the left side, do they still need to focus their defense on China's Su side?
However.
It was just that one moment of hesitation on their part.
Arsenal's Gibbs on the left wing has already sprinted past the center circle with the ball.
And before Sterling could catch up, he passed the ball to Podolski.
fuck!
Seeing how determined Arsenal were to attack down the left flank, Jordan Henderson and Lucas Leiva immediately realized that during halftime, that damn Wenger must have adjusted the tactics.
Without further hesitation, the two quickly retreated, leading Liverpool's defensive formation to their right flank.
But once they actually moved their formation forward, Podolski, who received the ball, sent it back with a long kick!
Yes!
Podolski surprisingly switched the ball over a wide area and sent it to Su Hao's right wing!
In less than 10 seconds, Arsenal first moved the ball from the middle to the left wing, and then immediately passed it back to the right wing!
It was precisely through this extreme pulling left and right that Su Hao finally received the rapidly falling football in his most comfortable state.
Looked up!
Look towards Liverpool's penalty area!
Su Hao saw Big Gilru raise his right hand high!
He also saw Podolski, who was now unmarked after passing the ball across the field!
this moment!
The tension that had lasted for half a game was instantly swept away!
Su Hao raised his right leg high and then swung it hard at the football at his feet.
It wasn't some kind of outside-of-the-foot shot!
The moment Su Hao saw Podolski, he made his decision!
Right arch!
Su Hao then forcefully used the instep of his right foot to strike the lower right edge of the soccer ball.
"Shh!"
Accompanied by Su Hao's right foot rubbing!
The football immediately bounced up from its spot, spinning wildly as it hurtled towards Liverpool's penalty area.
This was the most beautiful arc in those forty-odd minutes at Anfield Stadium!
It was this very arc that swept past Liverpool's head, which seemed to have already touched the height of victory.
Right on the right side of the penalty area!
Podolski!
The German international, who was unmarked after the ball was passed to him, didn't even need to jump; he simply leaned his head over.
"Boom!"
The football slammed into Podolski's forehead and nestled effortlessly into Liverpool's proud goal.
"Beep!!!"
The referee blew his whistle and pointed to the center circle with both hands, indicating that the goal was valid!
"We have the ball!"
"In the end, it all came from Su Hao's long pass!"
"After traversing most of the pitch, Su Hao's long, curved pass finally found Podolski, helping Arsenal pull one back!"
There was no particularly loud celebration.
Even Podolski, who scored the goal, didn't seem excited at all.
He simply rushed into the goal, picked up the ball, and waved for the whole team to quickly return to their own half.
1: 3!
Their Arsenal are still down by two goals, how can they be in the mood to celebrate?
Arsenal surprisingly pulled one back early in the game.
Although Brendan Rodgers, standing in front of the Liverpool bench, was a little annoyed, he still patiently called out to Anderson and the others not to let their guard down in marking Su Hao.
In Brendan Rogers' view, Su Hao had only been temporarily forgotten by Anderson and the others.
In the upcoming matches, as long as they continue to put pressure on that guy, Arsenal's attack shouldn't have too much of a problem!
just
Brendan Rogers had a wonderful plan, but what was the result?
After the game restarts.
That damn Arsenal number 11, Suarez from China, seems to have completely forgotten where he's supposed to be!
When Liverpool are attacking, this guy will sometimes go to the wing to double-team Stewart, and sometimes he will appear in the penalty area to compete with Suarez for the ball!
Brendan Rogers was a little confused!
He couldn't quite figure out what Wenger had done in midfield.
Why did Arsenal seem to have absolutely no positional awareness in the second half?
Even number 11 can play center-back now?
However, Brendan Rogers was even more bewildered when he heard about what was to come.
62th minute of the match!
Arsenal's attacking opportunities.
After a difficult but relentless defensive effort that forced Liverpool's attack back, Su Hao, who received the ball in the backfield, suddenly surged forward along the left flank towards Liverpool's half.
Sterling quickly followed and chased after him, but although Sterling had speed, his body was completely different from Su Hao's. In just one close encounter, Sterling stumbled and was almost knocked into the billboard by Su Hao.
Su Hao, with his long legs, sped off like a left winger, unleashing his explosive speed.
Kante followed up in the middle, while Ramsey came up on the right.
As for Podolski, who was originally supposed to be a left winger, he had no choice but to move to the center after realizing that he seemed to have no place there.
that's it!
在苏浩左路突击开始的一刹那,阿森纳原本的4-3-3愣是直接变成了4-4-2!
After playing as a right winger for half the game, Su Hao, the attacking midfielder, evolved back into a left winger.
Liverpool's two central midfielders are practically going crazy; they genuinely don't know how to contain that damn Suarez.
Then, just as they were wondering how to attack Su Hao from both sides...
Su Hao, who was almost at the edge of Liverpool's penalty area, suddenly slowed down!
Because at this moment, Su Hao had already seen Ramsey, the player he had never connected with in the first half, making a high-speed forward run.
Yes!
Ramsey saw the same vulnerability in Liverpool's defense that he had observed!
No more hesitation!
The moment Su Hao saw Ramsey rush into the edge of the penalty area, he immediately used the outside of his right foot to forcefully rub the ball against the lower left edge of the ball.
As always, it has that breathtakingly beautiful curve!
This time, however, Su Hao sent the ball in the completely opposite direction, using the outside of his foot.
"Su Hao!"
"The arc of the outside of the foot!"
"The football has bypassed Martin Skrtel!"
"We've passed Mamadou Sakho!"
"Simon Mignolet has made his move!"
"but!"
"but!"
"Ramsey beat me to it!"
"A right foot stab!!!"
The rousing anthems that had resounded throughout Anfield Stadium for over sixty minutes finally stopped!
because!
On the field!
The Arsenal player named Ramsey poked the ball away with the tip of his right foot before their goalkeeper could react!
The ball was moving very fast, but in the eyes of all Liverpool fans...
Yet it felt like each day was an eternity!
At last!
In the despairing eyes of all Liverpool fans.
The ball crossed the goal line!
It's inside the net!
"Beep!!!"
The referee blew his whistle, and at the same time!
The only 1-odd Arsenal die-hards in the away fans' stands finally seemed to come back to life and started shouting wildly.
It wasn't just the thousand-plus fans; even the Chinese fans, protected by security personnel, screamed at Su Hao's amazing rainbow shot with the outside of his right foot!
"Ouch!"
"pretty!!!"
"pretty!!!"
"The ball went in!!!"
"The ball went in!!!"
"The match is in its 64th minute!"
Arsenal have scored again!
"2:3!!!"
"It was Su Hao's help again!"
"On the left flank!"
"Su Hao scored Ramsey's first goal of 2014 with a beautiful outside-of-the-foot shot!"
"2:3!"
"In just over twenty minutes, Arsenal miraculously scored two goals, narrowing the gap between the two teams to just one point!"
"Hope has returned!"
"Hope is back!"
"From being down by three goals in the first half, we're now down by only one goal!"
"Arsenal have miraculously pulled the hope of the game back!"
With Ramsey's second goal, Huang Jianxiang, who had been sitting lifelessly in the commentary booth for more than 60 minutes, finally came to life.
Arsenal's hopes have been rekindled.
At the same moment!
The whole Liverpool team felt different.
From a near-dominant three-goal lead in the first half, Arsenal have now scored two goals in just over twenty minutes.
Yes!
The Liverpool players were starting to panic.
Not only the players on the field, but even Brendan Rodgers on the bench was getting anxious.
Yes, he really couldn't understand it.
I just can't figure out what that damn Wenger did in midfield!
Why do the same 11 players seem like two completely different teams after just 15 minutes?
"Henderson! Keep an eye on that guy! Follow him! Don't let him have another easy kick!"
However, although Brendan Rodgers still hasn't figured out how Wenger adjusted his tactics, generally speaking, as long as Arsenal keeps a close eye on the number 11, their attacking threat can be temporarily alleviated.
Of course, after setting up a defensive strategy, Brendan Rodgers still urged his players to continue putting pressure on Arsenal in attack.
Brendan Rogers frantically began to devise tactics, not far away!
The professor who completely bewildered Brendan Rogers was actually a bit bewildered himself.
It's just like.
He suddenly realized that he had been using a pistol as a dart to throw at people.
He finally realized what was happening.
Su is clearly an all-rounder, capable of playing both the backcourt and the frontcourt, so why does he always give Su a fixed position to limit his performance?
From initially making him a defensive midfielder, to now making him an attacking midfielder regardless of defense!
Why can't I separate Suarez from Arsenal's overall tactical system?
It's like making Su a central midfielder/liberal.
Without any restrictions, let him freely change his position according to the course of the game?
The fierce battle between Liverpool and Arsenal continues.
And the distant Apennine Peninsula.
The Juventus team, who had just finished their match, also had a BBQ dinner at Pirlo's mansion.
For the players, besides drinking beer, watching a game that can attract their attention is the only thing they do when they have a get-together.
With Su Hao's meteoric rise in the Premier League, Juventus has noticed that their young player Pogba bears a striking resemblance to Arsenal's number 11, the Chinese Su Hao.
However, in terms of passing experience and awareness, the young Pogba is somewhat lacking compared to the Chinese Suarez.
So, at Pirlo's suggestion, the entire Juventus team ended up sitting in front of the TV watching this highly anticipated Arsenal vs. Liverpool match.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t watch it!
After seeing Su Hao score two consecutive rainbows with his right and left feet to help Arsenal pull back two goals, Pirlo, who had been smiling, suddenly turned serious and called over Pogba, who was drinking with someone in the distance.
"Paul! Take a closer look at this guy!"
After witnessing Pogba's incredible talent, Pirlo really wanted to mentor his junior.
"I think you should study this guy's playing style carefully, his experience, his observation and thinking on the field, even his passing. These are all things you need to learn!"
"."
Pirlo earnestly explained to Pogba the difference between the young version of Pogba and the current Su Hao.
And Poba, who has always been extremely proud and considers herself unrivaled among her generation, began to seriously watch the Chinese Su Hao, who is just as tall as herself, for the first time after Su Hao's two rainbow assists, which were absolutely perfect in terms of experience, awareness and footwork.
just
I don't know why, but watching that 17-year-old on the field, who had completely disrupted Liverpool's defense with his positioning, I felt a strange mix of emotions.
Pogba always felt that the guy was a lot like himself.
Anfield Stadium!
After Arsenal scored two goals in quick succession to bring the score back to within one goal,
This Premier League showdown has finally entered its most intense phase.
Driven to desperation, Liverpool continued their relentless attack.
The 68th minute of the game.
Stewart, who received the ball on the left wing, wanted to repeat his old trick and play a one-two with Suarez, but Arsenal captain Arteta made a desperate sliding tackle the moment Stewart passed the ball.
While scraping his entire thigh until it bled, he successfully shoved the ball out of bounds.
71th minute of the match!
Liverpool launched an attack down the flanks.
After successfully sending the ball into the penalty area, Koscielny leaped high and, fearlessly, collided with Gerrard, who was making a run for the header.
In that instant, their heads collided violently with a loud bang.
Koscielny's brow bone was even ripped open, but ignoring the blood that was already streaming down his brow bone, Koscielny rushed to the ball and sent it out of the penalty area with a long kick.
Arsenal successfully defended against Liverpool's attack, and Koscielny, after receiving a quick bandage on the sidelines, returned to the fight!
A desperate defense, a relentless effort to replay!
Blood was even spilled on the spot!
It was precisely this tenacity of the entire team, gritting their teeth and going crazy, that gradually instilled a sense of fear in Liverpool fans.
A fear they instilled in the Italians many years ago!
And it is precisely this kind of momentum that is accompanying it!
With their morale reignited, Arsenal finally unleashed a furious, all-out attack.
The 78th minute of the game.
Arsenal, having given their all, have finally found another chance!
However, this time it wasn't Su Hao!
Sanya!
The veteran, who was teased by the professor during halftime, seemed to be proving that he hadn't really grown old, and he fought fearlessly in defense.
Even in every counter-attack by Arsenal, they tirelessly rush to the forefront.
It was through his tireless sprints that Sanjaya finally got his moment of glory.
A diagonal pass from Ramsey broke through Jon Flanagan's defense, and Sagna, seeing Stewart closing in, desperately used his right foot to send the ball into the penalty area.
Giroud gritted his teeth and desperately withstood Martin Skrtel's powerful header as he slammed his head into the ball.
However, although the ball passed Simon Mignolet's outstretched fingers, it ultimately hit the crossbar and bounced back.
now!
All the Arsenal and Liverpool players rushed towards the ball's landing point like madmen.
The first to arrive was Podolski, who swung his right foot at the ball before it even hit the ground.
However, although Podolski drew the ball first, he was faced with Liverpool captain Gerrard, who was making a deep run from the center.
Facing Podolski's powerful shot from such close range, Liverpool's most resolute legendary captain fearlessly put his hands behind his back and lunged forward.
"boom!"
The football slammed heavily into Gerrard's face and bounced back.
Although he was a little dizzy from being bombarded by such heavy artillery and even felt like his nose was damaged, Gerrard gritted his teeth and lunged towards the second ball bounce.
However, before Gerrard could arrive, Henderson took the first shot.
However, Henderson's shot was too hasty, so the ball didn't travel far.
And, by sheer coincidence, it landed right at the feet of Kanté, who was in the dark and hardly noticed by anyone.
then
Just gently poke it with your toe!
Kante, who transferred from Ligue 2 for €5.5 million, scored his first and most important goal for the team without any warning.
Everyone inside the penalty area was stunned!
The referee confirmed via his headset that no one was offside.
The referee then put his whistle in his mouth.
"Beep!!!"
With a whistle, the referee pointed to the center circle with both hands, indicating that the goal was valid!
"pretty!!!"
"pretty!!!"
"The ball went in!!!"
"The ball went in!!!"
"My God!"
Arsenal have scored again!
"Kant!!!"
"Kante, Arsenal's new signing during the winter transfer window, scored his first goal for Arsenal, and possibly the most important goal of the entire season!"
"3:3!!!"
"A miracle has happened!!!"
"A miracle has occurred at Anfield!"
"With Liverpool leading by three goals in the first half!"
"In the second half, Arsenal bounced back like a rock, staging an incredible comeback at Anfield that left everyone speechless!"
"3:3!!!"
"Arsenal have equalized!"
"Arsenal have equalized!"
"The two teams are back on equal footing!!!"
-
[Holy crap! Awesome! They actually came back?! How could they come back like that?! 3-3! Damn, Arsenal are awesome!]
-
[Arsenal played exceptionally well in this half. What were the manager's adjustments during halftime? Not only was the team's momentum completely different, but Su Hao seemed to have been unleashed, his presence felt everywhere!]
-
[Damn, Arsenal's tactics are amazing! Didn't you guys notice? In the second half, Su Hao didn't have a fixed position at all. He was everywhere – in the back, midfield, and attack! And honestly, wherever Su Hao went, that area would instantly become more dynamic!]
-
Putting everything else aside, the halftime adjustments alone were absolutely brilliant. I bet all the newspapers will be raving about his halftime decisions after the match!
-
[3-3! This is a scenario they're all too familiar with, but last time it was Milan fans who were familiar with it; today, it seems Liverpool fans will have to get to know it too?]
-
[Holy crap! Do you guys remember that guy from the first half who said half his house was crushed? I think he said he was going to the rooftop? Hey! Does anyone know this guy? Does his wife still need taking care of him? By the way, if the person who owes this kind of money dies, can his wife collect it on his behalf?]
Anfield Stadium fell silent for the third time.
And for Arsenal!
Before the dark-skinned Kanté could even realize what a spectacular goal he had just scored, he was tackled to the ground by a tall figure.
Following closely behind were Giroud, Ramsey, Mertesacker, Arteta, and Sagna.
Everyone at Arsenal rushed towards them like madmen.
From 0:3 to 3:3!
The feeling of returning from the abyss to the surface was so exciting that I couldn't help but tremble all over!
Meanwhile, in front of the Arsenal bench at the same time.
The professor, who had been humiliated by Brendan Rodgers' arrogant celebration less than ten minutes into the game, was completely unleashed after Kanté's third goal.
Clenching his fists, the professor was about to roar passionately at Brendan Rogers.
The professor had already made the fist gesture, but he was too embarrassed to shout it out.
but!
There was absolutely no need for the professor to yell.
Because Brendan Rogers, who was sitting opposite the professor, was on the verge of a breakdown and smashed his water glass on the ground.
Not only did Brendan Rodgers smash his own water glass, but he also roared at Lucas Reva, who had been right in front of Kanté but failed to stop Kanté's shot!
3: 3!
Moreover, they were leading by 3 goals in the first half when this depleted Arsenal team scored 3 goals in quick succession!
Brendan Rodgers knew very well that, regardless of the outcome of this match, he would become the laughing stock of all England fans tomorrow!
P.S.: I'm so sorry, dear readers, I originally wanted to finish writing it all at once, but I found that I didn't have enough time, so I can only stop here for now.
In the original match, Liverpool thrashed a heavily injured Arsenal 5-1.
Moreover, the team's roster only added Kanté and the main player, while the defense was still the same weak players. So, after thinking it over, I decided to write about this match as more difficult, according to my own ideas.
After all, this book has only just begun. If it were to be invincible all the way through, it would just be going back to the old ways of making noodles.
Finally, I humbly beg you dads to consider how hard I've worked to make this noodle dish and give me some monthly votes!
