Chapter 258 Super Upset and 85 Goal Ratio

Chapter 258 Super upset and 85% goal ratio

The league match between Tottenham and Liverpool at the temporary home stadium, the new Wembley Stadium, is the focus of the 9th round of the 2017-2018 Premier League. The time arrangement is naturally very routine. The game time is scheduled for the last game of the 9th round, at 4 pm on October 22, local time in Great Britain.

After the two Champions League match days, the attention of major European media has returned to their respective leagues. However, with the eye-catching performances of Liverpool and Tottenham, the strong dialogue at the new Wembley Stadium naturally attracted attention from all over the world.

Liverpool won three consecutive victories in Group C of the Champions League, and Tottenham's performance was not bad. Tottenham, who was also trapped in the death group, defeated Dortmund and APOEL in the group stage. In the third round of the Champions League group stage in the middle of the week, they drew 1:1 with the defending champion Real Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium. It can be said that they are in good shape.

Tottenham Hotspur has scored 17 points in the past eight league games, only five points away from the top of the table Liverpool. If they can win the game in this encounter, the difference between them will only be two points.

Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool, who are preparing for this round of focus battles, are both focused and strive to defeat each other in the league at the weekend.

Before Tottenham Hotspur's match against Liverpool, the two teams can sit back and watch the tigers fight.

Manchester United, which was defeated by Liverpool 3:0 last weekend, seems to have problems. It lost 1:2 to the newly promoted Huddersfield away, exposing a super big upset.

There was no accident in another focus battle at the same time. Manchester City defeated Burnley 3:0 and topped the league table with a 1-point advantage after one round.

Liverpool fans are very confident in the team they support. They believe that Manchester City will stay at the top of the table for at most 20 hours, because Liverpool, who has one round less, has a goal difference of 2 more than Manchester City. Even if they draw, they can return to the top of the league table with a goal difference advantage.

After all nine league games, Tottenham Hotspur will face the challenge of Liverpool at the new Wembley Stadium.

In fact, for Tottenham, playing at the original White Hart Lane is more advantageous, because Tottenham has only so many fans, and the new Wembley Stadium, which can accommodate 90,000 fans, is definitely not enough. However, Tottenham had to move to the new Wembley Stadium in order to build a new stadium, so Tottenham did not have the advantages and passion that the small stadium had in the past in this season's league.

Last season, Tottenham began to rent the new Wembley Stadium as Tottenham's home stadium in the Champions League. The result is predictable. The atmosphere at home did not meet the requirements of the White Hart Lane Stadium. The players played without any passion and were eventually eliminated in the group stage...

Back to the point, the new Wembley Stadium is the home of the England national team, and it is also the venue for the English League Cup final, the FA Cup final and the Community Shield. It also hosted the 2011 and 2013 Champions League finals.

This stadium is the largest stadium in Great Britain, which can accommodate 90,000 fans. Tottenham has rented the New Wembley Stadium as a temporary home since last season, and this season it will completely use the New Wembley Stadium as the home stadium for the league and the Champions League until the new White Hart Lane Stadium is completed and put into use.

Tottenham played against the defending champion Liverpool at home. The New Wembley Stadium, which was originally difficult to fill on Tottenham match days, was destined to be full on this day.

There was still an hour before the start of the game, and more than 80% of the New Wembley Stadium had already poured in. As time passed, the empty seats were slowly filled.

The Liverpool players and Tottenham players who came to the stadium to warm up looked at the almost full New Wembley Stadium, and their blood began to boil. South Korea's top star Son Heung-min looked to the 8 league rounds this season. He has contributed 19 goals. His goals and assists combined are not even a fraction of Li Qing's goals, and he feels a little inferior in his heart.

However, when he saw Harry Kane, his lack of confidence was gradually replaced by the dawn of victory.

It doesn't matter if he can't score as many goals as Li Qing, he just wants his team to win at the new Wembley Stadium!

This is a game worth six points, we must win!

Juli TV has already received the live game signal in advance, and the voice of commentator Zhan Jun is transmitted to the ears of every fan watching Juli TV through satellite signals. The screen is just right for Liverpool supernova Li Qing, who said loudly: "Young player Li Qing looks very good, and the next game is really exciting. He contributed 19 goals and 4 assists in 8 league rounds. Liverpool has only scored 27 goals in eight games, which means that 85% of Liverpool's goals are directly related to Li Qing!"

"What a terrifying contribution ratio! We can also understand why teams like Manchester City, Manchester United, Atletico Madrid, and Roma this season will adopt lethal foul tactics against a sixteen-year-old boy."

There are about twenty minutes before the start of the game. Players from both sides walked to the locker room one after another to make final preparations for the upcoming red and white battle.

...

Pochettino held the Liverpool starting list with a frown on his face. Li Qing, who was used as the No. 10 player by Klopp at the beginning of this season, returned to the original shining right winger position.

Compared with Li Qing in the middle, it is more difficult to let go of the right winger, and it will also make it impossible for Son Heung-min, who is on the opposite side, to free up his mind to attack, which is exactly what Pochettino does not want to see.

If Li Qing continues to play the number ten position, then the opponent of Son Heung-min is Salah. Although Salah is also very strong, Son Heung-min can at least play with Salah on equal terms. The problem is that Son Heung-min may not be able to concentrate on attacking when facing Li Qing.

It has to be said that Klopp is very wise in arranging the troops.

Liverpool coach Klopp grinned while holding the Tottenham starting lineup. The starting lineup was almost exactly the same as he had guessed before the game, but the formation was unexpected.

The formation was 3421, with goalkeeper Lloris, three central defenders Vertonghen, Davidson Sanchez and Alderweireld, midfielders Aurier, Winks, Ali and Trippier, forwards Son Heung-min, Eriksen, and Harry Kane at the front.

As the referee Atkinson walked into the field, the fans of the new Wembley Stadium burst into a huge and violent shout like a tsunami: "aoaooaoooooooo——"

Feeling the fanatical atmosphere coming towards them, the fighting spirit of the starting players of the two teams became more and more obvious.

Professional players are competitive people. In the last round of this round, no one is willing to give up easily.

For them, the season is indeed long, but the strong dialogue is often a race against time. Instead of waiting for the opponent to make mistakes in the long season, it is better to play every game well.

In the end, won’t the championship be won?

"Beep~"

Accompanied by the whistle of the referee Atkinson, the last game of the 9th round of the 2017-2018 Premier League officially began.
