Qin Xiong certainly did not care if Comain praised him during halftime.
It was just in front of his teammates, and Comain also praised the other players, including Mascherano and Carragher. Only the "lecture" to Qin Xiong was a reminder.
This made the atmosphere in the Liverpool locker room a lot more lively and relaxed, but it also made Qin Xiong laugh and cry.
For Liverpool's performance in the first half, at this stage, Comain did not need to make any general adjustments. He was only limited to emphasizing a few words on the details.
It was still the same saying, the winning team would not change.
Moreover, Tottenham Hotspur did not show signs of a threat.
In the second half, the two teams switched sides again. The Tottenham fans rallied after the depression in the midfield, and White Hart Lane was once again filled with the clamor of cheering for Tottenham Hotspur.
"The second half of the game is about to start. Redknapp made a substitution in the midfield. Crouch came on to replace Keane. I don't know what effect this substitution will have. Let's wait and see."
Tottenham Hotspur completely changed their style of play in the second half, almost becoming a traditional English team.
Only Modric in the midfield to organize the delivery of shells to Lennon or Defoe looked a little European.
With Crouch as the fulcrum in the front, Tottenham Hotspur's offensive methods could become more simple and crude.
Long passes to the overhead!
After seeing Crouch receive Joel Luca's long pass and try to do something under the double team of Mascherano and Skrtel, but the ball was cleanly intercepted by Mascherano, Comain sneered at Tottenham Hotspur's playing style.
He ended in failure at Valencia, but he was still a manager who pursued his dream.
He tried to transplant his successful experience in the Eredivisie to the La Liga, but he was not acclimatized and was obstructed by the naturally chaotic locker room. In the end, it ended dismally, but he was not ashamed of it.
Looking at Tottenham Hotspur's simple and crude tactics, Comain could not help but sneer in his heart. So, after waiting and waiting, this is the change that I've been waiting for!
Redknapp was indeed a typical English manager.
In any case, Tottenham Hotspur had enriched their playing style, which would create some difficulties for Liverpool, but would not put Liverpool in danger.
In the 54th minute of the game, Qin Xiong directly cut across the middle after touching the ball in the front field. At the same time, Gerard plugged in. He used an exquisite kick pass to Gerard to make the ball.
Gerard almost completed a work of art goal. After he plugged in, he turned around and used the sole of his right foot to complete the shot. Unfortunately, playing with embroidery was too demanding of Gerard. The football flew over the crossbar and into the stands.
"Wow, Gerard almost gave us a fright. Qin Xiong's pass was full of imagination. Gerard should have run slower so that he could directly face the goal and shoot. Or he could have adjusted his left foot to shoot. But Gerard might be fantasizing about making this combination the best goal of the round in one go. He forced himself too much to shoot while making a gorgeous turn."
Even Gerard himself could not help but lower his head and laugh after he finished the shot.
He just followed his feelings and did not consider whether he could perfectly complete his fantasy.
Tottenham Hotspur's offense began to pick up momentum because it was easier for them to kick the ball into Liverpool's penalty area than in the first half.
In the 58th minute of the game, Modric made a long pass in the midfield. Crouch stood out from the crowd on the penalty area line. He jumped and crossed the ball with a header.
His header was quite unexpected. It was thought that he would feed the ball to Defoe, but he did not expect his header to create a chance for Lennon.
Lennon gained more offensive freedom in the second half. He cut across the middle from the flank and successfully stopped the ball. Then he suddenly turned to spike the ball in the penalty area when Mascherano's defensive attention shifted from Crouch to himself.
Lennon broke through Liverpool's defensive line. Carragher's defensive attention was on Defoe. Johnson's carelessness in defense was exploited by Lennon.
This time, Lennon charged into the penalty area. He diagonally faced the goal and volleyed with his left foot in the far corner of the goal. Reina did not make a save because it looked like the football was a little too far from the goal.
Sure enough, the football rolled out of the end line more than two meters outside the far post.
"Tottenham Hotspur finally got a chance to shoot in the penalty area. Unfortunately, Lennon's shot was too far away from the goal. It can't be helped. He hasn't shot for a long time. He also needs to find the feeling."
The Tottenham Hotspur fans seemed to see hope. The cheers in the stands suddenly became enthusiastic.
But the good times did not last long. Liverpool's offense was still fierce, pressuring Tottenham Hotspur until they could not breathe.
In the 64th minute of the game, Alonso controlled the ball in the midfield. At this time, Qin Xiong was subconsciously blocked by Tottenham Hotspur's midfielders.
Alonso did not make it difficult. He directly passed the ball to Gerard, who ran into a gap in front.
Gerard retreated to receive. He dribbled sideways to get rid of Palacios's blockade. Then, he turned halfway and swept the ball forward.
Torres stopped the ball in front of the penalty area. Under the pressure of the center backs, Basson and King, Torres dribbled the ball away from the front of the penalty area and then sent a straight pass.
The football rolled from Hector's side to the direction of the end line. Kuyt cut inside and decisively swept the ball to the back of the penalty area.
When Gerard stopped the ball and passed the ball, the Tottenham Hotspur players, who had blocked Qin Xiong on the left side of the midfielders, began to tighten to the middle. As a result, they lost their grip on Qin Xiong when Kuyt passed the ball out.
And the football that rolled rapidly in front of Tottenham Hotspur's goal was not touched by anyone. When it rolled to the back, a Liverpool player easily knocked the ball into Tottenham Hotspur's goal with the arch of his foot!
"Qin Xiong, Qin Xiong scored! His first performance in Liverpool was perfect. One goal, one assist, one point creation! All three goals have something to do with him!
He scored this goal too easily. Liverpool launched an attack from the midfield. Torres's pass to Kuyt had already put the attack into a dead end. But Kuyt saw Qin Xiong, who was running from the back, and he whipped the ball to the back of the goal. The speed of the ball was so fast that Gomes could not interfere with the football. In the end, Qin Xiong easily broke the goal from the back! "
"Qin Xiong finally showed the power of his goal. Such a goal was actually rare in his last campaign in the Premier League, wasn't it? Paul. "
"I have to say that Andy's words are right. When he was at Arsenal, Qin Xiong would also score goals, but his goals were more like goals after a solo breakthrough. Like this, he easily snatched the point to break the goal. That ability he inspired in La Liga. Bosque created the killer Qin Xiong!"
"No wonder Ferguson said when he commented on Qin Xiong's transfer to Liverpool: Qin Xiong chose Liverpool, which made it very difficult for Manchester United to surpass Liverpool!"
"Hahaha, Manchester United and Liverpool now have the same number of titles in England's top league, 18. Ferguson is only one league title away from kicking Liverpool off the throne! What about now? There is no doubt that Liverpool is the favorite team to win the Premier League this season! "
