Chapter 318: North London debut (part 1)

The draw for the UEFA Champions League group stage of the season has been drawn. As a third-tier team, Liverpool have been assigned to a fairly good group, and there should be little problem with qualifying.

   In fact, the Champions League teams this season are fairly evenly divided. Basically, each team is two strong teams.

  The other three teams in the Premier League match, Arsenal were divided into a group with Dortmund, Galatasaray and Anderlecht, and there was no problem with qualifying.

   Chelsea are divided into a group with Schalke 04, Sporting Lisbon, and Maribor, which also has obvious advantages.

   As the defending champion of the Champions League, Jackie Lee’s old club Schalke lost a large number of key players during the summer transfer period. The entire axis of Jackie Lee, Kanter and Navas was hollowed out. It is definitely hopeless to defend the title.

   Fortunately, they have continued to retain Draxler and are now assigned to a relatively simple group. There is no problem with that group qualifying, and there should be no such embarrassment that Chelsea’s defending champion could not qualify.

It is also worth mentioning that Schalke, who lost a lot of blood in the previous European Super Cup held in Cardiff, Wales, lost 1:2 to the UEFA Champions League champion Sevilla in overtime and missed the chance to become the No. Two Bundesliga teams that won the European Super Cup.

   Although the UEFA Champions League team is fairly evenly distributed, it is inevitable that there will still be a dead group.

   The only dead group this year is Group E, which are Bayern Munich, Manchester City, CSKA Moscow, and Rome.

   Bayern is the defending Bundesliga champion, Manchester City is the defending Premier League champion, Roma is the Serie A runner-up last season, this group is indeed somewhat difficult.

   I have to say that the Manchester City team seems to be not easy year after year.

   Since becoming a local tyrant, Manchester City has participated in the Champions League four times and was assigned to the death group three times. Last season was the only time that was not assigned to the death group, but achieved the second highest score of 15 points in the group.

   The UEFA Champions League group stage is grouped out, and media from various countries are discussing the qualifying situation of their respective teams and potential opponents.

   And Lee Chenglong was elected as the latest European best player, which also received a lot of reports.

   After all, the European best player award still has a certain amount of gold.

   The English media even reported that Jackie Lee was about to win the Golden Globe Award.

   But Li Chenglong himself is quite sober, and he won’t necessarily be able to win the Golden Globe when he gets this award.

   In the season, Iniesta was the winner of the best player in Europe, but the Golden Globe was Messi's.

   Season, Ribery is the European best player winner, but the Golden Globe Award is Ronaldo.

   In short, the European best player award can only be said to help improve fame, but it has no direct connection with the Golden Globe Award.

   Lee Chenglong got the trophy he wanted, but he didn't have time to delay, and quickly rushed back to England, preparing for the next day of the Premier League, his debut in Liverpool.

   At noon on August 31, at 12:30 local time in the UK, the focus of the third round of the Premier League, Liverpool’s away challenge to Tottenham Hotspur is about to begin.

   "This game has received a high degree of attention. This is the first show of the Premier League's historical standard king. It is Bruce Lee's first official game in Liverpool. It is very eye-catching."

"But yesterday Bruce just went to Monaco to participate in the award of the best player in Europe, and now he is back to participate in this league, and it is still the focus of the strong battle. This may make Bruce very tired and unable to fully play his own. Level, this is something that many people are more worried about."

   In the discussion of the English commentary, both sides of the game officially appeared.

   When Jackie Lee played, there was a huge boo in the Bailu Lane Stadium.

  Everyone knows that Jackie Lee is an Arsenal fan, so it is normal for him to be booed at the White Hart Lane Stadium.

   Liverpool arranged a 433 formation,

  Goalkeeper: Mignole;

   Defenders: Moreno, Lovren, Sacco, Mangillo;

   Midfielder: Coutinho, Gerrard, Henderson;

   Forwards: Sturridge, Jackie Lee, Sterling.

   The current Liverpool lineup is obviously top-heavy.

   The front court trident is more gorgeous, it is considered the top offensive line in the Premier League, with Jackie Lee leading the team, Sturridge and Sterling are both powerful forwards who have proven their abilities last season.

The midfield is pretty good. Henderson is a qualified engineering player. It is well known that Gerrard is old and his ability declines. Now he relies on experience to play. Coutinho is very threatening on the offensive end, but on defensive intercept It's much worse.

   As for the defense and the goalkeeper, it is entirely a tofu project, especially when key players such as Glen Johnson and Scott are injured.

   Such a lineup, indeed, can only be used to play offensive football.

   Try to rely on offense to suppress the opponent to win the game, don't count on the defensive end, and everything will happen.

   The home team Tottenham arranged a 4231 formation.

   Goalkeeper: Lori;

   Defenders: Danny Ross, Vertonghen, Kabul, Dale;

   Midfielder: Capue, Ben Taleb;

  Avant-garde: Shadley, Eriksson, Lamela;

   Forward: Adebayor.

   In the summer, Tottenham appointed Argentine Mausario Pochettino as their new head coach.

   And Pochettino's transformation of Tottenham seems to have worked well. Since the start of the new season, Tottenham have won two consecutive Premier League victories, and they seem to be in good shape.

   So this time in White Hart Lane, Tottenham are fully prepared to score three points from Liverpool.

   After the start of the game, both sides were not at all polite, UU reading www.uukánshu.com directly started the game.

   Liverpool under Rogers originally focused on offensive football, while Pochettino's tactics are also mainly offensive. Both sides don't need to test each other, and it's done with real swords.

   Only 3 minutes into the game, Liverpool created a dangerous situation.

   Coutinho sent a pass from the midfield, Sturridge made a pass from the left, and Lee Chenglong crushed French defender Cabourg in the penalty area to complete a tiptoe header.

   But Lori was in good condition, raised his hand and slapped the ball out.

   Lee Chenglong squeezed Kabul forward to fill the shot, but under the interference of Vertonghen he pushed the ball wide.

   "This is only Liverpool's first attack, but the Tottenham fans in the stands must be terrified. Bruce Lee does whatever he wants in the penalty area. The French defender does not seem to know how to defend."

   "I think this is why Liverpool spent 80 million to buy the Blues, but many people say they are taking advantage of it."

   Lee Chenglong had a strong sense of presence in his first attack, which he had already expected.

   This is his Premier League debut. The Premier League defenders don't know enough about him, and it is indeed easy to become a background board.

   Even those stars who are considered to be parallel imports, they can play a dazzling performance in the first few games after the transfer, relying on the opponent's unfamiliarity.

   In addition, Spurs is currently in the rebuilding period. There are many shortcomings in the team, and there are many loopholes that Li Chenglong can catch.
