When Tottenham Hotspur adopted the strategy of "surrounding Qin Xiong but not grabbing" to force Qin Xiong to be unable to take the initiative to break through, Qin Xiong's sudden long shot shook the hearts of all the Tottenham Hotspur players.
Like an aurora drawing an arc and rising from Qin Xiong's feet, the football carried a majestic momentum as it flew across a half-moon trajectory towards Tottenham Hotspur's goal.
The goalkeeper, Gomes, did not react. His vision was blocked, and he could only turn his head dumbly to look at the landing point of the football, as if he was suffering from the trial of fate.
When the football sped down and fell to the top of the net above the goal, it bounced and rolled into the stands on the side of the end line. The hearts of the Tottenham Hotspur fans at White Hart Lane seemed to come back to life after a sudden stop. However, the beating of their hearts still carried lingering fear, beating weakly and unable to withstand another test.
“OMG！ Qin Xiong almost broke the goal with a long shot! He's like a beast, suddenly opening its bloody mouth and using its sharp fangs to mercilessly bite the opponent, and when the opponent absolutely does not expect it! "
When Qin Xiong saw that the football did not shoot in, he tilted his head slightly and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. He did not take it to heart and turned to walk in the direction of the midfield flank.
He may be indifferent, but Tottenham Hotspur could not turn a blind eye.
This time Qin Xiong did not shoot in, but what about the next time?
They began to actively use slashing tactics to contain Qin Xiong.
The game went on in a fierce confrontation. When the game reached the 25th minute, Qin Xiong made a simple gesture to Alonso. After Alonso saw it, he nodded solemnly at Qin Xiong.
In the 28th minute of the game, Aurelio passed the ball straight to the front from the backfield to Qin Xiong. Just as he was about to be surrounded, Qin Xiong kicked the ball back.
Modric had just retreated to participate in the defense when he saw the football roll past him. He stopped and turned around, but Alonso rushed past him from behind. Alonso looked up to observe the situation in the front field and passed the ball straight to Gerard, who was running to the right in front of the penalty area.
Gerard was not as good as Qin Xiong and Alonso in terms of the overall situation and organizational ability, but the current situation was clear at a glance. He knew how to take advantage of the team's established advantage.
Qin Xiong had become the number one target for Tottenham Hotspur's defense. His formation on the left in the front field was Liverpool's offensive advantage.
At this time, Liverpool had had to flexibly shift their offensive focus.
That was the main reason why he ran to the right in front of the penalty area.
After receiving Alonso's pass, Gerard flicked the ball horizontally to avoid Palacios's pressing. At this time, Gerard already had a chance to cross the ball into the penalty area.
In order to restrict Gerard, Hector and King had to have someone to stop him. King had to form a joint defense with Basson to control Torres, so that left Hector.
Sure enough, Hector, who claimed that he only played for money, rushed at Gerard at the right time, while Gerard calmly passed the ball behind Hector.
Kuyt, who ran diagonally from Hector's side into the penalty area, was brave and fierce. The impact formed by his bravery was a powerful bombardment of shots at the Tottenham Hotspur's goal!
Bang!
Gomes fell to the ground and the football bounced out exaggeratedly, almost close to the center circle position!
The spectators in the stands watched with rapt attention. The Tottenham Hotspur fans had long been uneasy from the shock they received.
"Kuyt's shot is too powerful! It lacks an angle! Gomez used his arm to block the ball. Oh, no, it looks more like the football hit Gomez's body. His arm happened to be in front of his body to protect him. Otherwise, he would not have fallen to the ground in such a sorry state! "
"Oh, how should I say this! Andy, Gerard's pass was very comfortable, but Kuyt's shot lacked calmness. It was such a good opportunity, but he shot the ball at Gomes like he was venting his anger, instead of at the other gaps in the Tottenham Hotspur's goal. If it was just a little bit more, the ball would have had a high probability of entering the goal! "
"I'm not worried about that. Liverpool is in control of the situation on the field. The team built by Comain is still different from the team built by Benítez. Of course, Benítez does not have Qin Xiong. Liverpool's control of the game has improved a lot. Alonso is combing the offense and defense in the midfield and backfield, and Qin Xiong is leading the rhythm in the front field. Liverpool's dual-core configuration in the front and back is bound to make the European powerhouses crazy with jealousy."
"I have to interrupt. The dramatic manifestation of fate is that Alonso and Qin Xiong, who were originally Real Madrid players, now appear together in the Liverpool team. Hahaha."
The Tottenham Hotspur team began to panic a little.
Modric worked hard to organize the offense, but the bigger and smoother Liverpool got, the better their defensive work was.
In the 31st minute of the game, Modric had just received a pass from Hector and was about to turn forward when Gerard intercepted from behind. Modric deftly flicked the ball to dodge and got away beautifully.
But it was not over yet. He had just flicked the ball horizontally when Kuyt rushed out from the side and the football was poked to Alonso at the back.
Modric felt the huge pressure of Liverpool's midfield encirclement and suppression. Before he could recover, Alonso did not stop the ball and sent a long pass out!
Qin Xiong simply wanted to applaud Alonso!
It could be said that in his career, except for the days when he himself played as the organizing midfielder, none of his teammates who acted as the commander behind him were stronger than Alonso!
For example, Galasek in the past, Fàbregas who was still immature in 2005, and Guti in Real Madrid. As for teammates like Vieira, they were not in the category of commanders at all.
In the process of the transition between offense and defense, Qin Xiong saw Kuyt destroy the ball at Modric's feet. He immediately ran forward along the left side of the road.
As it was Tottenham Hotspur's offense, Tottenham Hotspur's defensive players had just caught their breath and their minds and bodies were slightly relaxed. When Modric was intercepted, they were just about to perk up and Qin Xiong was already running forward. He was only one meter away from rushing past Giorgio Luca!
Alonso's pass was a long pass over the top. When the football flew out, Qin Xiong could roughly predict where the football would land based on the speed of the ball!
It was in the empty area behind Giorgio Luca and Basson!
It happened to be the place where Qin Xiong ran to attack.
How could such a pass not make Qin Xiong applaud and applaud!
Seizing opportunities, observing the positioning of his teammates and the insight of the overall situation were the comprehensive qualities that an excellent commander on the green field should have.
Obviously, Alonso had such an ability.
After Alonso passed the ball out, he was also very satisfied with the pass. He had good control of his footwork and was not affected by external forces. He did observe Qin Xiong's running position. It was a decision that was made without careful consideration after it was reflected in his brain through the naked eye in an instant.
He looked at the football that fell like a parabola into Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area. In his field of vision, Qin Xiong rushed to Tottenham Hotspur's defensive line with a wild aura.
Alonso murmured, "Let's give them a quick end!"
