Section 524 The referee's penalty

In this game, Liverpool's lineup was adjusted to the best.

The goalkeeper is still Reina, and on the back line, there are Riser, Hypia, Carragher, Macon, and the midfield is Sissoko, Alonso, Gerald, Zhao Yaning and Figo, while on the forward line, there is Milito alone.

Although this lineup is not unparalleled, it is enough to ensure that no one will lose the upper hand when facing Premier League teams.

Moreover, Gerald and Milito did not play in the mid-week matches. They had enough rest and prepared for this game to play in the best form and defeat the biggest and most annoying competitor.

After winning the Champions League, Liverpool's confidence has also risen unprecedentedly. At this time, when encountering a stalemate at the trough, it is naturally necessary to play well.

In contrast, Manchester United's lineup in this game has much bigger problems than Liverpool.

Unlike Liverpool's full staff, Manchester United's side, Heinzer's cruciate ligament torn and basically can't play this season. Their left-back position has promoted the star Richardson as the starter. This also makes their back line O'Shea, Sylvester, Rio Ferdinand and Richardson - this set of defense is not very safe. Except for Ferdinand, who is recognized as the best defender, the others are not very good. Sylvester is said to have been almost abandoned by Ferguson, and Richardson is a young newcomer after all, and O'Shea's position at Manchester United is becoming increasingly blurred. Neville's injury is a big problem for Manchester United.

Their goalkeeper is the newly introduced Van der Sar, and in the midfield, they sent four people, Alan Smith, Roy Keane, Scholes and Ronaldo as the starting lineup, while the forward position is Van Ny and Rooney.

This lineup is still a top-heavy lineup. On the forward line, Van Nie and Rooney are still Manchester United's best players. The huge threat of the former is something that any defender needs to pay attention to. Although the latter is notoriously emotionally unstable and has caused trouble recently, as people say, his outbreak from time to time is still a matter of fear by people. When encountering such a person who likes to be flirted, it is also very troublesome to defend.

And their midfield is not a big problem.

Scholes' transformation has begun to get on the right track, and Ronaldo is getting smarter and has begun to improve when he plays football. But now, Manchester United's biggest problem is the problem with the defense line.

Roy Keane is getting older and older. As a midfielder, he has no running ability and coverage ability, and his role will naturally decline. Ferguson is still looking for his successor, while Hargreaves, who is far away at Bayern, has not yet agreed. Barack, who is more looking forward to coming, is still loyal to Bayern, saying that he will not go anywhere - but his contract is still not signed. After three months, he said he would wait for another three months before talking. Manchester United's own youth training player Fletcher has not yet played out. Manchester United's current defense in the midfield has become a major problem.

But Ferguson also has his own way, transforming the forward young player Alan Smith he bought last season into a midfielder.

After being bought by Ferguson last season, Alan Smith's position began to move backwards. From the forward to the midfield, to now, he started playing as a midfielder, his position was considered a major surgery.

Although the media praised Ferguson's approach, saying that he had discovered Alan Smith's tough character, and in the outside world, people have always praised Ferguson's keen eyes for his knowledge of heroes, in fact, Ferguson bought his original role: playing forward, which was indeed a failure.

As for whether he can replace Keane, Zhao Yaning thinks it is also unlucky. The skills are too poor. Keane is indeed tough, but his skills are not bad at all. His style is also the old-fashioned English BTB midfielder style. Although Keane, who is slightly slower in offense, is slightly less impactful than Gerald, but his excellent defensive position and awareness make him contribute to the team's defensive end to Gerald. He can play perfectly if Gerald doesn't play well. Although Alan Smith's attitude is worthy of praise, it is hard to say how good his level is. Manchester United puts his hopes on him, so he is asking for trouble.

As for their newly introduced, Park Ji-sung, who is regarded as the absolute core of the Champions League semi-finals by the Koreans - he is now sitting on the bench. In such a game, it is not his turn to play.

Another change in this game is that O'She went to play as a defender... Zhao Yaning is really confused now. What position does O'She mentioned? Left back, right back, central defender, midfielder, and even Zhao Yaning still remembers seeing him playing as a forward. What is this guy's position?

It is difficult to get through repairs like this. When will Ferguson prepares for major surgery on Manchester United?

Zhao Yaning didn't know these things, but in his heart, he hoped that this day would be two days late. Although many people are, Manchester United is no longer as glorious as before, Zhao Yaning is still very afraid of them in his heart.

If a team's lowest trough is only fourth in the league, then their glory is naturally enough to be shocking. It will be even more beneficial to us if we defeat them earlier.

It was with this idea that Zhao Yaning immediately took the ball and launched a surprise attack from the beginning of the game.

In this game, he was not in the mood to catch the ball in the frontcourt and slowly consumed the attrition. What he wanted was to fight with his opponent's bayonet from the beginning, and being able to hit his opponent one minute earlier was a huge help to Liverpool.

Alonso quickly understood his intention. After sending the ball to the left, Alonso also ran forward. In this game, he wanted to put pressure on the opponent. It is natural that the back of the midfielder was inserted.

When Zhao Yaning received the ball, O'She had already blocked it. However, while Zhao Yaning took the ball down, he kicked the ball directly behind O'She, and then went sideways to the field and passed O'She.

O'She immediately turned around and chased after him, but at this time, Zhao Yaning was ready to be extraordinary.

He stepped on the ground with his left foot and pushed the ball to the right with his right foot. Osheim thought he was going to make a cross, so he hurriedly blocked it. Zhao Yaning's right foot had hooked the ball back, and the ball was sent to his left foot, and a fried croquette passed Osheim.

How can I take the ball back when pushing the ball outside the feet? O'Shea was almost stunned by him and stayed there, not knowing what to do.

In fact, Zhao Yaning's movement was not driven by the outer instep. If O'Shea was careful, he would find that when Zhao Yaning's left foot stopped urgently, his right foot was still in front of his left foot. Then, while he turned around, his right foot completed the ball in one step and then rub the ball behind him. Because the ball was rubbed out, although it seemed to be fast and powerful, it would not leave his instep because of the rotation. When he wanted to do the next move, he could push the ball back slightly.

In fact, it is just a reverse force of the external instep rubbing and passing, while controlling the force to make the ball stick to the foot. In Zhao Yaning's opinion, this is not a very difficult action, but the ball sense and technology actually require great requirements for the flexibility of the waist and abdomen and flexibility in high-speed running. Even the external instep rubbing and passing, few people can master it. Who would be so bored to create this action? This is the first time Zhao Yaning used it. O'She, who had never seen before, was naturally stunned.

Zhao Yaning, who entered the penalty area, did not challenge Ferdinand and Sylvester's defense. He passed the ball with his left foot, kicked the ball up, and landed towards the distance.

Milito jumped up, headed the ball towards the goal!

There was a huge cheer in the entire stadium instantly!

"gooooal!!! Diego Milito!!!... Oh, no, the referee blew the whistle, this ball doesn't count..."

When the whistle sounded, the sidelined flag was raised, and he determined that the ball was an out-of-bounds ball. This made Milito, who rushed to the corner kick point and had already pulled down the corner kick flag, looked puzzled, and Zhao Yaning felt even more innocent: It was true that he broke through along the bottom line just now, but when passing the ball, he passed the ball with his left foot in the back of his left foot, which was an inward arc. How could it go out of bounds?

However, referee Howard Webber upheld the judgment. The goal was not counted. This judgment turned the original cheers in the stands around him into booing, and blowing off Liverpool's goal at Anfield, which is absolutely unforgivable.

"This ball shouldn't be out of bounds..." Martin Taylor couldn't make a good judgment, "But Zhao Yaning himself would be careful. Breaking through the ball along the bottom line will always cause misunderstanding. In 2002, Joaquin's ball passed to Morientes was just such a ball? It seems that the game against Real Betis has caused Liverpool to be infected with a lot of bad luck, and now they have actually played this kind of ball."

"That ball has definitely not gone out of bounds. Looking at the arc, can't tell if it has gone out of bounds? How can it be..."

"Don't argue anymore. If you make a noise, I'll give you a yellow card." Howard Webber stopped Zhao Yaning's argument, "The goal is invalid, don't say more."

Zhao Yaning waved his hand angrily. He now regrets not using the Sleeping Beauty Card - because the card with Manchester United nemesis cannot be used at the same time, and he did not use the card. Now, he regrets it a little.

At this time, as soon as Liverpool's momentum was frustrated, Manchester United immediately began to fight back.

After several simple passes, Scholes' long pass gave the ball to Xiao Xiao Luo. Xiao Xiao took two steps forward and confronted Macon in front of the penalty area.

"Before the game, Cristiano said that he wanted to perform better than Zhao Yaning. Let's see, what is he going to do?"

Xiao Xiao Luo did the bicycle two or three times on the spot. When he saw that Maikon could not move, when he was riding on his right foot, he suddenly kicked the ball out with one foot, and then chased after him, squeezed Maikon away, and rushed into the penalty area.

This made Maicon a little unexpected. He thought that the other party had to play with him, but when he was extraordinary, it was so simple and direct. He hurriedly reached out to pull Xiao Xiao Luo, but Xiao Luo broke away from his hand, rushed forward, and suddenly fell into the penalty area!

A huge boo sounded again in the stands, but this time it was given to Ronaldo.

"Cristiano fell into the penalty area! The referee ran over and let's see what the penalty would be... a fake fall! The referee gave a yellow card, this was a fake fall!"

This penalty made Xiao Xiao Luo raise his head, but he looked at the referee, then looked in the stands, and then grinned.

The game doesn't seem that simple... Such an action cannot be replaced by fake falls. It seems that the referee's penalty is still difficult to figure out.
Chapter completed!
