After returning to Liverpool, Li Tiancheng's first priority is to restore his physical condition.
Liverpool challenged Fulham away. Li Tiancheng did not go to London with the team at all. He stayed at Melwood for recovery training.
He returned to Liverpool from Asia just two days before the game. Benitez directly excluded him from the squad, which is very reasonable.
Although Li Tiancheng's physical recovery speed exceeded the team's medical team's expectations, he has not fully recovered after all, and the Champions League will be in a few days. Benitez decided to let Li Tiancheng fully rest. Super Depor is not that easy to deal with.
Li Tiancheng had just passed the time lag and had no interest in showing off.
But when the game arrived, Li Tiancheng sat in front of the TV on time.
After preparing the fruit, Li Tiancheng was in high spirits. He had been in a bad mood for the past few days. He wanted to adjust himself by enjoying the delicious food in Liverpool.
Fulham itself has limited strength and is still suffering disasters. Forward Andy Cole has been suspended and many main players have been injured. They lost to newly promoted Crystal Palace in the last round. Such a team can be said to be bullied by everyone.
Liverpool will definitely put on a devastating performance.
Although this kind of competition is not as exciting as a strong collision, it is perfect for adjusting your mood.
Li Tiancheng's life has not been so easy these two days.
There are so many talents in China that it is not difficult to find lip-reading experts. The content of Li Tiancheng’s angry shouting during the game against Kuwait was quickly exposed to the public.
This caused an uproar and the people were talking a lot.
Of course, the Football Association and the coaching staff are under a lot of pressure. What circumstances would cause players to publicly call them "idiots" one by one?
On the other hand, Li Tiancheng was under a lot of pressure. Chinese people were not used to this kind of "dominance" at all. He was too domineering and disrespectful. The label of arrogance was firmly stuck on his forehead.
This is nothing. I still have the basic qualities of being brave and courageous. I am just a person like this, and I have no intention of creating a good child image, adding some topics to the people after dinner, commenting on my bad temper, criticizing my big mouth, this
It’s really nothing, it happens sooner or later anyway, so there’s nothing wrong with letting everyone get familiar with it first.
What I didn't expect is that the popularity is too high, and there will be more people taking advantage of the popularity.
Various has-been artists, popular celebrities, and even various Internet politicians, keyboard leaders, and all kinds of religious leaders appeared on the stage.
You criticize the Football Association, he criticizes the coach, and I criticize the young master. We all make witty remarks, work together to earn traffic, attract attention, and join forces with large and small media to have a national carnival. Wouldn't it be great?
Now Li Tiancheng suffered an unreasonable disaster. Whenever a cat or a dog made a comment, he would be surrounded by reporters asking for his opinion.
This is a serious job. There is no sowing discord, no spreading rumors and causing trouble. There is no way to drive people away for no reason. I can only accept interviews.
But who are these people? These comments are mindless at first sight, so why should you respond?
As soon as these words came out, the scene became more lively, filled with indignation, and more people were chattering.
The public opinion is too hot, and the English paparazzi are getting involved. Is it true that the little prince can no longer stay in China? These are explosive points and cannot be missed.
The chasing team actually grew stronger, and Li Tiancheng was really in a bad mood.
Two hours later, Li Tiancheng's mood became even more complicated.
He stood up and turned off the TV, and the scene of Benitez chatting disappeared.
"We conceded too many goals in some key positions, but we still controlled the situation. Winning makes you stronger, and winning makes everything easier."
Okay, coach, I'll just assume you're right.
Fulham 2:4 Liverpool.
Looking at the results alone, this victory was brilliant enough, but unfortunately the content of the game was not so convincing.
This game is the 4000th game in the history of Liverpool. Benitez sent out a 442 formation. Since Cisse and Baros are not suitable for single strikers, let you continue your life with partners around you.
This is okay, after all, everyone is familiar with this formation.
Because of his excellent performance against Chelsea, Kirkland continued to serve as the starting goalkeeper. It makes sense that Dudek really jumped out a bit.
But what is the operation of Dio replacing Alonso? Can Dio and an engineer do Alonso's work?
Of the four players in Liverpool's midfield, three were engineers, Riise and Finnan were originally defenders, plus Diaw, leaving only Garcia with some creativity. This combination caused Liverpool to suffer a big loss.
Shortly after the opening, Diaw needlessly kicked down Malbranque in front of his own penalty area, giving Fulham a chance to demonstrate their free kick tactics. Pembridge's direct shot almost knocked off Kirkland's fingers.
In the 24th minute, he moved his back heel and passed the ball to Malbranque, who was waiting for Fulham to counterattack.
McBride passed the ball and Boa Motte knocked the ball in front of the goal.
Liverpool's defense was moving forward and there was no time to make up for Diaw's mistake.
1:0, the home team took the lead.
It wasn't over yet. In the 30th minute, he lost track of Malblanque again. Malblanque played a one-two with American McBride, and the former passed to Boa Motte.
Boa Motte got the ball and shot it through Kirkland's goal, 2:0!
Less than 6 minutes apart, Boa Mote scored twice!
What's going on in Dio's mind?
Fortunately, there was Alonso, who changed everything after he came on in the second half. Less than 5 minutes after he came on, he organized the attack.
Baros's cross was actually just average and didn't pose much of a threat, but after the ball hit Knight, it incredibly changed direction and flew into the blind corner.
An own goal, Liverpool got a goal back and came back to life.
In the 71st minute, Liverpool continued to dispatch, from right to left and back to the center. Alonso hoisted the ball into the small penalty area, Garcia's top shot was blocked, Baros made a supplementary shot, and the score became 2:2. Fuller
Mu is broken!
Then Josemi was sent off with two yellow cards, and Liverpool became nervous again. At this time, Alonso scored a direct free kick and the tension disappeared.
This free kick hit the opponent's wall, changed the line twice, and bounced into the goal!
2:3, Liverpool leads.
At this time, Benitez replaced Baros with Biscayne.
This is because the obsession will never go away. At this time, I still changed the formation to 4231.
Not to mention, this adjustment really worked. In stoppage time, substitute Biscayne received a pass from Garcia in the penalty area and scored with a powerful shot.
This is Biscayne's first league goal in Liverpool's career.
2:4.
The score was settled here.
After the game, the Fulham head coach expressed shame. Of course he had reason to be ashamed. He conceded four goals in the half. This cannot be justified.
Benitez said there is no problem. As long as he wins in the end, it means everything is still on track.
But no matter how hard you talk, you can't hide four goals and two deflections. This victory relied too much on luck.
Of course, after Alonso came on the field, Liverpool still showed a certain degree of dominance, and Benitez's adjustments were also remarkable.
