Chapter 140 Li Qing’s dependence and defending the title of Best of the Month

Li Qing failed to score in the league for the first time. Head coach Klopp thought that Li Qing was declining. In order to better protect Li Qing, he decided to put Li Qing back on the bench.

The day before the game, Li Qing learned that he was not in the starting lineup and felt very speechless.

According to assistant coach Buvac, head coach Klopp believes that he started too many times, which caused ups and downs in his state, so he should return to the bench to adjust his state first.

After hearing this reason, Li Qing rolled his eyes. If he had known this, he should have gone all out.

In the 32nd round of the 2016-2017 Premier League season, Liverpool was a guest to challenge Stoke City, which is known as the "City in the Sky". I don't know if Liverpool has been dependent on Li Qing recently. The offense in the first half was not good. Said that the defensive end was full of loopholes and did not perform like a championship team at all.

Klopp frowned as he stood in the coaching area of ​​the visiting team, thinking that he should find a world-class central defender this summer, otherwise it would be difficult to improve his performance to the next level. After all, Li Qing does not contribute 2.5 goals to the team in every game. Be invincible.

Even if Li Qing's efficiency is really so high, he still has to do a good job in defense. The league is very long. It's no problem if the defense has some minor problems. The problem is that he will definitely participate in the Champions League next season.

The biggest feature of the tournament system is that you must defend well, otherwise it will be difficult to win the championship.

The Champions League is much more difficult than the Premier League.

In the first half, Stoke City led Liverpool 1:0 at home with Shaqiri assisting Walters for a goal.

The ten-minute intermission passed quickly, and Liverpool took the lead in making adjustments. Li Qing, who has been in hot form recently, replaced Origi.

When Stoke City head coach Mark Hughes saw Li Qing coming on as a substitute, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he felt faintly uneasy.

This uneasiness became more intense as Li Qing became more active in the game. His team is now one goal ahead. As long as they hold on to the score until the whole game, they can score three points, but... they can hold on for so long. Time?

Facts have proved that the team of Mark Hughes, who played for Manchester United for most of his career, only lasted ten minutes. Li Qing played a wonderful one-on-one with Coutinho and Firmino on the right, entering the game. In the penalty area, he assumed a real pass and gave the ball to Coutinho, who was in a better position. The latter's powerful volley from the line of the penalty area helped Liverpool equalize the score.

Three minutes later, Liverpool's offense made a comeback. Li Qing used a realistic fake move on the right to enter the penalty area. Former Liverpool player Glenn John stretched his foot in the penalty area and tripped Li Qing who completed the breakthrough. The referee on duty decisively awarded a penalty kick.

Milner hit the penalty and Liverpool took the lead.

In the subsequent game time, Stoke City tried to strengthen their offense, but the offensive players did not perform well enough. They did not score a goal in the front, but conceded the ball first in the back.

Li Qing made his first solo performance at the Britannia Stadium, helping the team expand the score to two goals.

And this goal was also the last goal of the game.

Unfortunately, Chelsea defeated Bournemouth 3:1 away from home, and the point difference between them widened to five points again.

From defeating Chelsea at home in the 23rd round of the league to defeating Stoke City as a guest, Liverpool has won nine consecutive league victories. The highest distance from Chelsea at the top of the league is now five points. If they win in the make-up, the point difference will be narrowed to two points. point.

Chelsea will visit Old Trafford in the next round. Once Chelsea loses points and Liverpool wins, the point difference will be equal or overtaken.

The league is coming to an end, and everyone at Chelsea is feeling tremendous pressure. Manchester United head coach Mourinho does not have the idea of ​​​​extreme Manchester United fans who would rather lose than Liverpool come back to win the championship. He only wants revenge!

Chelsea's past glory has the shadow of Mourinho. Real Chelsea fans have never regarded Mourinho as an outsider. In the first round of this season, he led the team to Stamford Bridge. His pride was destroyed by Conte's fool. The next round is about whether Chelsea can win the championship. Mourinho is working hard to achieve the sniper.

Liverpool fans are also rare to stand on the side of Manchester United, caring about the current situation of Manchester United players and asking for help.

The neutral fans were very moved. If the fans in this world were so cute, wouldn't the world be peaceful?

There is only one real focus game in the 33rd round of the 2016-2017 Premier League season. Manchester United faces the leader Chelsea at home. European mainstream media believe that the result of this game is likely to affect the ownership of the Premier League championship this season.

Chelsea's only remaining league opponents are Manchester United, which is a tough nut to crack. Liverpool's remaining opponents are all middle and lower-tier teams, the kind that have no hope of being relegated in the European war.

It is unrealistic to expect these teams to stop Liverpool, so the London media hopes that Chelsea, coached by Conte, can take away three points at Old Trafford.

The competition, which involves the ownership of the league championship, has attracted the attention of media from all over the world.

There are many Manchester United fans and Chelsea fans in China, and these fans who care about the home team have started a war of words on major online platforms.

Manchester United fans believe that Chelsea fans have forgotten their roots and humiliated the meritorious coach Mourinho at Stamford Bridge again and again, and deserve not to win the league championship this season.

Chelsea fans laughed at Manchester United for underestimating the situation, and even Mourinho could not save the team.

In addition to the war of words between fans, players from both sides also used online platforms to join in, attracting attention from all parties.

The whole Liverpool team was extremely focused and looked like they were ready to die.

According to Klopp, Chelsea cannot control whether it loses points or not. What he can solve is the team's state and mental outlook.

On the second day after training resumed, several more uninvited guests broke into Melwood Stadium.

The official staff from the Premier League came to the first team training ground with two trophies, [Player of the Month] and Coach of the Month. Compared with last time, Li Qing was mentally prepared.

Head coach Klopp also showed a smile. Under his leadership last month, Liverpool defeated Arsenal, Manchester City and Everton respectively to win three consecutive league victories.

Coach of the Month, well deserved.

Last month, Li Qing broke the embarrassing record of Liverpool players not winning Player of the Month for three years. It was not too long before Klopp won the Coach of the Month. The last time he won this honor was in September last year. , but it was three years and one month before they won the best player and best coach together.

The entire Liverpool team is very happy that Li Qing and Klopp won the best of the month, and they are full of confidence in future games.

While European mainstream media focused on reporting on the red-blue battle, they also focused on the news that Klopp and Li Qing won the Premier League's official Coach of the Month and Player of the Month respectively.

Especially the media and fans seem to feel a sense of pride.
