Chapter 73, It's Just The Object Of Military Training

Tottenham Hotspur was really unlucky, they didn't expect the Liverpool reserve team to easily win the next game, but they were not satisfied, and they were full of evil fire to find trouble for them.

They are not the same as Bolton, Bolton is too late to avoid relegation, so naturally they are not in the mood to deal with those strong teams in the FA Cup. Flash as much as you can.

But what about Tottenham?

They finally made it to the semi-finals of the League Cup, you let them give up?

That's killing them!

For a long time, the Premier League championship has been monopolized by a few traditional giants, either Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, or Tottenham.

So the League Cup and the FA Cup have become their only goals to enrich the club's honor room.

Therefore, their "187" performance in domestic cup competitions is often harder than in the league.

The FA Cup and League Cup are more prone to upsets, and have become the main battlefield for these mid-range teams.

Now that they have reached the semi-finals, even if they encounter the difficult Liverpool, they are not willing to just admit defeat.

It's a pity to admit defeat at this time, it's better to admit defeat from the beginning.

Now that you have reached this point, you have to work hard no matter how difficult it is.

Because it is an away game, Tottenham are more fully prepared.

Their idea is that a tie is a victory, so if they go directly to overtime, it is still a tie. If it is dragged to a penalty shootout, Su Han's advantage will not be brought into play.

Because no matter how good Su Han is, there is only one penalty spot, even if he shoots through the net, it is still one goal.

And he couldn't control the performance of his teammates.

For the youngsters, the first experience is to decide who can go to the penalty shoot-out at Wembley, and it is inevitable that they will be a little nervous.

As long as you are nervous, you will play unstable and you may miss the penalty kick.

This is the solution that Pochettino came up with after thinking about it for a week after being drawn by Liverpool in the first leg.

If there is no way to knock out Liverpool in 90 minutes, why not delay to penalties?

When it came to the penalty shootout, the chances looked even. It's actually in their favor.

After all, Tottenham's players are more experienced, they have seen all kinds of scenes, and they have long been calm.

Playing penalty kicks, a decisive method that requires high psychological quality, is naturally the most suitable for Tottenham to use against Liverpool.

I have to say that Pochettino's idea is really good.

And in theory, it does appear to be the only way to beat Liverpool.

If it is Liverpool's first team, this method may not be effective, because Reina is famous for his penalty kicks.

But against the Liverpool reserves...

The opponents are much more unscrupulous.

To put it bluntly, this team can only be played by Su Han, and the rest of the team will be downgraded to the level of the team's substitute players.

Pochettino arrived at Anfield with the intention of dragging Liverpool to penalties.

But God fails to fulfill one's wishes.

How can Liverpool tolerate not scoring a goal at Anfield?

Liverpool scored in the ninth minute and it was Su Han who scored.

He scored with a direct free kick.

Although Tottenham's defense is very tight, it can't completely prevent Liverpool from getting a free kick....

There are always some fouls in front of the penalty area.

So Su Han's direct free kick is a bit suspenseful.

The football went directly into the goal at a distance of more than 30 meters. Although the goalkeeper made a move, it didn't help.

When Pochettino saw Su Han's goal off the field, his face turned livid.

Because he knows that once Liverpool's goal is scored, all his calculations will be lost...

This means that if Tottenham want to draw with Liverpool, it will be very difficult to drag into a penalty shootout.

Although the League Cup is not like the Champions League, it depends on the number of away goals.

The League Cup does not look at the number of away goals, but only compares the total number of goals. If the total number of goals is the same, it will be played directly in overtime. If the two sides are still tied in overtime, then the penalty shootout...

So Spurs only need one more goal to get the game back where it started.

But it's easy to say, the Liverpool reserve team's defense is very tenacious.

Even a team as good at attacking as Arsenal can't break through the door of Liverpool's reserve team, let alone Tottenham.

This game has lost its meaning.

The Tottenham Hotspur players also tried their best to give the Liverpool reserve team some color before the game.

As a result, in less than ten minutes, Su Han was hit on the head and passed out.

I was ignorant for more than ten minutes and didn't react.

When they finally reacted, Liverpool scored again.

Tottenham were not stunned this time, but were completely beaten to death.

Two goals behind, the first half is only halfway, what else is there to start this game?

All their goals before the game are to keep the tie, and their tactical arrangements and training are also aimed at this.

Now let them attack with all their strength and try to equalize

They are also not mentally prepared.

..4.6...

The rest of the game is completely in the hands of the Liverpool reserve team.

Ancelotti even used this opportunity to let the reserve team try to suppress the style of play, no longer just hide in the backcourt, but press the offense and play positional warfare.

After all, a team will encounter many problems in the game, which cannot be solved by just relying on a defensive defense.

Let them try to solve various problems, which will help them to progress and improve.

So Tottenham Hotspur, a traditional strong team in the Premier League, has become a training target for Liverpool's reserve team...

If they knew Ancelotti's plan, they would have to find a piece of tofu and kill them......
