Chapter 99: Pills! Pills!

"Ho! The distance from the ground is at least one meter and two. You can jump really high!"

"Although Di Maria's kick was not very powerful, it fell very quickly. It went straight to the upper right corner of the goal. If Mo Yang's scalp hadn't been rubbed like that, the ball would have most likely been able to bypass Alisson's fingers.

."

In the pp sports live broadcast room, Su and Dong were also talking about Mo Yang's crucial defense this time.

In the slow-motion replay, you can clearly see that as soon as Neymar took the ball, Mo Yang at the top of the left arc immediately started and rushed directly towards Di Maria.

This means that Mo Yang saw through Paris Saint-Germain's final intention of this attack in advance, which really made Su Dong and others feel a little incredible.

Because the ultimate goal of Paris Saint-Germain's attack is too hidden.

Not long after, the game entered halftime.

"Paris Saint-Germain's overall performance was obviously better than Liverpool's last game."

"Tuchel's strategy is very clear, that is, if I can't beat you in the midfield, then I will pull back and wait for you to press up. Then I will hit you behind you, and then cooperate with the counterattack and high-speed sports battle to hit the Liverpool goal!"

"The forty-five minutes of the first half proved that Tuchel's strategy was very correct. They continued to cause problems for the Liverpool defense."

"Especially the movement battle that flows smoothly from back to front and can be maintained at a high speed, which puts considerable pressure on Liverpool's defense."

"Yes, in today's game, Verratti and Marchinho played a very key role. One acted as the metronome of the team, and the other acted as a hub for smooth switching of formations..."

Not long after, the second half began, and the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Neither side made any substitutions. After the game started, it could be seen that Klopp and Tuchel did not make any obvious tactical changes during the halftime break.

Paris Saint-Germain still insisted on attacking from the left, and Marquinhos came up from time to time to provide support when Verratti encountered trouble from Mo Yang.

But his main task is to act as a ball-grabbing machine in the defensive midfielder position. As long as Salah, Mane and Firmino have the ball in front of the top of the key, he will come up to interfere. He has solved Liverpool's problems many times.

attack.

Except for that one missed goal, Marquinhos' performance can be said to be very outstanding.

After the start of the second half of the game, the offensive and defensive transition rhythm of both sides slowed down compared to the first half.

"Actually, for Liverpool, they can accept a draw, which is why Klopp didn't fight so fiercely in this game."

"If this game ends in a draw..."

"boom!

!

!

"

Before Su Dong finished speaking, the Parc des Princes stadium suddenly burst into overwhelming cheers.

In the 52nd minute of the game, after receiving a side ball from Henderson, Salah could not get rid of Kimpembe's close entanglement.

The two entered the right wing of the penalty area. Salah saw that there was no hope of a breakthrough and wanted to force a horizontal cut inside.

But Jin Pengbei was well prepared and quickly blocked the key position.

Salah was forced to go all the way back, trying to cross the ball to Mo Yang at the top of the arc in the middle.

But at the moment of passing the ball, Kimpembe saw through it again and stretched out his foot to block it in time. The ball fell to the feet of Neymar, who was coming back along the wing.

Neymar picked up the ball with his back, and a few meters behind him were Henderson and Gomez on the left and right sides. Firmino was quickly approaching on the left and was about to counterattack.

Just when Liverpool was about to tighten the encirclement, Neymar suddenly put the ball under his feet, took the ball to the wing, and rushed forward.

Firmino followed him all the way. After following for a while and finding that he couldn't grab the ball, he gave up and handed Neymar to Gomez, who was blocking the front wing.

In the blink of an eye, Neymar rushed in front of Gomez, suddenly shot the ball forward, and then accelerated past from the right.

At the same time, Mbappe, who was also on the sideline, met the ball in front of Lovren and knocked it out laterally, and then immediately turned around and advanced forward at high speed.

A simple and quick pass and cut combination, and he got rid of the containment of Lovren and Gomez very neatly.

In front of the halfway line, Neymar received Mbappe's pass, stepped forward, and accelerated again.

At this moment, Paris Saint-Germain's counterattack speed reached its peak, and all the Paris fans at the Parc des Princes were excited.

Taking the ball across the center line and into the Liverpool half, Neymar looked up and saw that Van Dijk was already positioned in the middle. If he continued to run forward, he might be blocked by the famous World No. 1 defender.

live.

So he chose to stuff the ball in front of Mbappe on the wing.

"Neymar!

!

"

"Rush up!

!”

"This ball gives a lot of advance, enough for Mbappe to use his speed!"

Amid the exclamations of Su Dong, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu, Mbappe continued to accelerate, leaving Lovren behind him out of sight.

In the blink of an eye, Mbappe entered the Liverpool penalty area from the upper corner of the left penalty area, and his speed also slowed down. Then he suddenly passed the ball across the goal with the outside of his right foot and passed it to Cavani who came in from behind the penalty spot in the middle.

.

At the moment of passing the ball, Van Dijk was in front of the end line of the small penalty area, ready to clear the ball.

But Mbappe's kick was very sneaky. He dared to give a small advance at such a close distance to the goal, just avoiding Van Dijk.

Behind Van Dijk, Cavani followed up in the middle. Robertson, who came back from the wing, fell behind a beat later. He could only watch helplessly as Cavani shot.

In front of everyone, Cavani faced the ball that was coming quickly. He stretched out his left foot sideways and prepared to use the arch of his foot to rub the ball in.

But when he stretched out his foot, the ball rolled past him first, allowing him to catch the air.

However, mistakes were made, and the ball finally hit his supporting right foot and deflected towards the goal.

In front of the goal line, Alisson had fallen to the ground and laid his body across the turf, trying to expand his defensive area.

Alisson's super quick reaction allowed him to get down to the ground in time when the ball came.

The ball hit his left knee and rolled back toward the penalty spot.

"oh!

!

!

!

!

"

When the Paris Saint-Germain fans saw this scene, they were so angry that they jumped up and down in the stands.

This scene also made the Red Army fans at the scene almost die suddenly.

But before these Red Army fans could feel lucky, the bad news had already hit them.

In the small penalty area, although Alisson stretched his legs to block the ball, it just passed under Robertson's crotch, causing Neymar to hit him.

Faced with this God-given opportunity, Neymar easily succeeded in pushing the shot into the lower right corner of the goal, rewriting the score to 2-1.

The moment the goal was scored, the stands on all sides of the Parc des Princes stadium were shaking.

Tuchel clenched his fists, turned around and rushed back to the coaching bench.

On the field, Neymar jumped directly on Mbappe's back and was carried to the right corner, and the whole team celebrated wildly.

On the Liverpool side, everyone looked helpless, and Mo Yang was also looking at the stars with his hands on his hips.

Paris Saint-Germain's counterattack was so fast that Mo Yang didn't even have time to pull back, and it had already hit their penalty area in three passes.

On the sidelines, Klopp was furious and kept yelling on the court. This time he was really anxious.

He can accept a draw, so that the initiative to advance is still in his hands.

As long as they defeat Naples in the last round, they can still advance to the knockout rounds as first in the group.

But if they lose, even if they beat Naples in the last round, they still have to compete with Naples on goal difference. That would be too passive.

But soon Klopp calmed down, got rid of the idea of ​​​​substituting and attacking wildly, and began to weigh the pros and cons of maintaining the status quo and launching a wild attack.

On the field, Mo Yang hoped that Klopp would make a substitution and replace him with Wijnaldum to guard Verratti, so that he would be free to concentrate on organizing the offense.

But after waiting and waiting, Klopp's substitutions and adjustments were never made, and Klopp's true thoughts were completely elusive.
