710 The confrontation between the two heroes

After the second half, the match between Liverpool and Chelsea became dull. Liverpool replaced Milito, let Kuyt go to the forward line and replaced Garcia on the side. Less than ten minutes after the second half, Chelsea replaced Shepchenko and Robben, trying to strengthen the counterattack.

For Liverpool, such a substitution is a bit helpless, but it is also necessary. Milito booed all over the game, and Milito's approach is indeed a bit wrong to replace him, which can be regarded as a protection for him.

In fact, Milito is innocent enough: it is normal to shoot and find the angle, and it is not uncommon to hit the post. However, Cech was injured a while ago and even had a life-threatening situation, which made Chelsea inevitably make a big deal about this problem. At this time, he obviously made a mistake due to psychological problems. Milito's approach was naturally suspected to be intentional, which attracted dissatisfaction.

Even if it's a little late, it doesn't matter if it's next year. But now, it's really bad at this time.

For Chelsea, the hero who replaced the goal seemed inhumane, but it has to be said that apart from that shot, Sheva did almost nothing and naturally could not stay on the court.

However, neither side's attacks achieved any good results. Until the end of the game, neither side had any chance again.

Liverpool and Chelsea played 1-1 away.

"I really didn't expect that you would be the first person to come out this season to hit us head-on." After the game, when Zhao Yaning and Drogba exchanged jerseys, they couldn't help but say something.

"It's just a draw, it's not a painful blow." Drogba's tone was still a little unwilling.

"You go and see our record this season. You have done a good job of drawing us." Zhao Yaning shrugged, "But that's the end. After returning to home, see how we win."

"You didn't play well at home this year's knockout stage." Drogba muttered and left.

He is not confident enough. Everyone knows that Liverpool’s home game is not good because of away results. If Liverpool’s away game is not good, what will they do when they reach the home game? These things are hard to say.

Liverpool won a 1-1 away game - such a result is definitely not bad at the Champions League semi-finals stage, but this game still made many media feel energetic immediately.

After defeating Real Madrid and Barcelona in two consecutive away games, Liverpool returned to England and actually got a draw against Chelsea. Does this mean something?

"Maybe, because Liverpool's early efforts are already insufficient now. Liverpool's form has come out too early, and they have played wonderful games with Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United and Arsenal. By the time of the Champions League semi-finals, they have lost their original energy and fighting spirit. Now Liverpool is at the end of their strength and no longer has the overwhelming strength in front of them."

Liverpool's failure to win naturally caused a lot of discussion. After all, Liverpool's strength was once strong when he played against Barcelona and Real Madrid. Now, the opponent he faced is Chelsea, which is weaker, but he has not been able to win. Such things will naturally cause controversy.

Zhao Yaning, who performed well in the previous two away games, did not score a goal in this game, which also became the most discussed thing the media has. Is it a simple game in a bad state? Or is it Chelsea’s perfect tactics and proper playing style, leaving Liverpool helpless? Is it because of his strength in the previous two games? Is it the illusion caused by his opponent’s poor strength? For a moment, the media talked a lot and wanted to find an answer.

"Don't anyone think that 1-1 away game is also a good score?" Zhao Yaning only commented on this.

In the Champions League semi-finals, the opponent will definitely not have any weak teams. In this level of competition, it is considered good to be able to play a draw with the opponent in the away game and score a valuable away goal. Is it okay to say that it is necessary to win every game?

At least, not to mention others, in another game, Milan lost 2-3 away. Even if they lost the game, they were considered to be very hopeful by the media and could turn the tables. Liverpool was just a 1-1 draw, and it was considered as the peak no longer. It really makes people feel helpless.

While speculating on Liverpool, London media also gave a high evaluation of Chelsea's performance in this game. After all, a draw with Liverpool is not an easy task for Chelsea, who has lost twice this season. Their psychological shadow is greater than others. They can compete with Liverpool in a match, without missing any flaws, but it is more difficult than other teams.

"Even if the whole world has begun to fear Liverpool, even if the whole world has no choice but to Zhao Yaning, Chelsea will not be afraid of Liverpool. At Stamford Bridge, we saw how the Blues soldiers who share hardships resist Liverpool's attack. They used a great game to prove their unyielding fighting spirit and also demonstrated their belief in winning! Such a Chelsea is Chelsea who is enough to be called Liverpool's biggest enemy. Their strength is still there. Zhao Yaning's strength conquered Spain, but it is not enough to conquer England's strong team. When facing Chelsea, Zhao Yaning still did not perform at the dominant level. Obviously, Zhao Yaning still has some strong hostility. "

Liverpool media responded immediately to these statements, "When facing a weak team, Zhao Yaning doesn't like to show his strength by scoring goals. Just like this game, why do you have to rely on goals to show his greatness by scoring goals? Helping teammates score goals can also achieve the same effect. After returning to home court, let's see how Zhao Yaning will perform. Zhao Yaning rarely has problems in key games."

Zhao Yaning’s return in this game was not good, and it was also the reason why he was criticized after the game. Although he gave an assist to the team in the away game to help the team equalize the score, it was a good performance, but the fans and media who had gained their tastes tricks in the first two games still felt that they were still unsatisfied.

"If Zhao Yaning can score a hat-trick at Stamford Bridge, then, what else can we worry about?"

Zhao Yaning could only feel a bitter smile when it comes to fans like this. He naturally wanted to score three goals in a row at Stamford Bridge, but it was unrealistic to have super performance in every game. If he could get a hat trick in every game, wouldn’t he become Superman?

"Zhao Yaning must play better. In the semi-finals, he cannot perform and lose to Milan. The Brazilian who lost to Milan is."

Zhao Yaning did not perform well in this game, but in Manchester not far away, Milan's Kaka performed well enough. Although Milan lost the game 2-3 in one game, Kaka won two goals alone and scored two away goals, while also retaining hope for Milan to advance.

More importantly, after this game, Kaka also scored his ninth goal in the Champions League, tying Zhao Yaning's number of goals.

"Maybe after the semi-finals, it is time to truly reflect who is the truly outstanding player. Kaka scored a goal, while Zhao Yaning failed to score. Such a thing is enough to show who is better."

The Italian media immediately began to boast about the great goals in the semi-finals, but in response to this, the counterattack of the English media immediately went back. "Zhao Yaning has scored three goals in the two Champions League finals, while Kaka has not scored a goal in a final. In this way, should it be said that Zhao Yaning is much stronger than Kaka? Moreover, Zhao Yaning scored the goal against the opponent's complete defense line. Kaka won a two-yuan game alone, but four main defenders of Manchester United were absent."

Such a war of words has been arguing outside. Although Kaka did play like a god descending to earth in that game, he was still a little lacking compared to Zhao Yaning now. After all, the accumulation of the first two hat tricks is not just a matter of talking about it.

However, the question of which of these two people is stronger is discussed more. Most people have the same views: this kind of thing will be discussed after the finals.

It seems that everyone believes that they can lead the team to the finals. This year's final is destined to be a showdown between the two heroes.

At Liverpool, Zhao Yaning also expressed his opinion to the outside world, "I will perform better in the next game. Please rest assured that we will win."

"You really think you can play very well? Are you ready to have another hat trick when it's time for home?"

Reina got into a private question, but Zhao Yaning shook his head, "Don't think so. If you have such a thought, you'll lose. On the road, we still have to work harder and be more serious. Their defense is indeed good, but the initiative is in our hands. If we do more running, we may be able to make a hole in their defense. I will definitely play as much as possible, but the goal is to win."

The purpose of the game is of course to win the game. Zhao Yaning himself does not think that the goal of playing brilliantly is more important than winning.

Chelsea is indeed very good. If you think you will win like the media, that is a big trouble. Being honest and low-key, being more serious and lowering your attitude is the correct attitude to play football.

Chelsea is so strong: compared with before, they are not as powerful as before, but they are more cunning and tolerant. Their progress also made Zhao Yaning realize the threat, and it would be better to be careful about such an enemy.

Of course, if you can play better while winning the game, it would be the best.

"In order to prepare for the next game, this league game, we will have a rotation rest."

In the locker room, Benitez made a decision that he hadn't made for a long time. After all, when playing against Chelsea, the amount of running required was greater and the players needed to play harder. Therefore, in the league, some appropriate choices were also needed.

Moreover, Manchester United is even worse than Liverpool. In the weekend's game against Everton, Ferguson, who originally planned to kick off with a substitute and then play with the main player in the Champions League, was strongly resisted by Everton in the league. In desperation, Ronaldo, who was originally on the bench, had to come on as a substitute, so he turned the situation around. Manchester United was in a mess by this two-line battle.
