Dortmund seemed to have been struck by lightning after conceding the goal.
Without warning, Liverpool destroyed their defensive line with a wave of quick attacks!
Klopp confirmed on the sidelines that Liverpool's stance was not to underestimate their opponent, but to examine Dortmund.
This kind of opponent was even more terrifying!
After figuring out the depth of Dortmund's skills, they would adapt to the situation and break through the enemy to win!
Liverpool declared the gap between the defending champions, the rulers of European football, and the newcomers of the Champions League in such a low-key and calm manner in Westphalia!
This was the real suppression!
The center-back combination of Subotic and Hummels was hailed as having the potential to become the world's best center-back partnership.
But in the end, they had been tested too little.
How many masters could train them when they were fighting on the German battlefield every day?
It was conceivable that Bayern Munich's offensive style could not cover the offensive style of all the strong teams in European football.
In particular, Liverpool and Bayern Munich's attacking styles were very different from each other.
This made it difficult for Dortmund to adapt to Liverpool's offensive style.
They paid attention to the change of rhythm and the combination of individual and team cooperation in the attack.
Klopp gave tactical instructions for the players in the middle and front field to be more aggressive in pressing the ball. At the same time, the defensive line tightened the defensive line and narrowed the gap to avoid the opponent's fast-attacking players from behind to break the defensive line.
After Liverpool's goal, Liverpool's offensive posture began to change.
Liverpool began to take the initiative to control the rhythm of the game.
Baines and Johnson's positions provided more coordination points in the midfield.
Alonso was in charge and Qin Xiong was also able to organize in the front.
When Dortmund tried to snatch the ball back from Liverpool's feet, Liverpool's passing speed in the midfield became faster and faster. Dortmund's players in the middle and front field were like a pack of wolves.
This was a competition of speed between the two teams.
Liverpool's passing speed and Dortmund's counter-pressing speed were based on the team's tacit understanding.
In the 32nd minute of the game, Qin Xiong passed the ball to his teammates in the middle and back field three times in a row. He suddenly missed the ball when he received Alonso's pass for the fourth time and then turned forward.
Bender, who had been keeping an eye on him, was shocked.
When Qin Xiong passed the ball back three times, he was ready to go one-on-one with Qin Xiong, but he did not succeed three times.
By the fourth time, he was already paralyzed.
He subconsciously thought that if he stuck close to Qin Xiong, then Qin Xiong would pass the ball back to his teammate.
He was wrong!
Big mistake.
When Qin Xiong turned around and brushed past him, he realized why the European media rated Qin Xiong as the most cunning player in history!
This cunning was a compliment.
Qin Xiong seemed to be able to deceive his opponents anytime and anywhere!
He seemed to be able to see through people's hearts and read their minds. He knew when his opponent had been paralyzed, when they had let down their guard, and when they had lost their rationality!
Qin Xiong rushed past Bender's defensive line and strode forward to control the football.
On the frontline, Raúl and Suárez immediately started.
Both of them seemed to start in the middle, but both of them ran diagonally after they started, crossing positions!
This caused a brief confusion in the two center backs and the full backs who had shrunk into the penalty area.
Piszczek and Hummels, who were originally marking Suárez, suddenly wanted to switch their marking target to Raúl, and the other side just happened to be the opposite.
Just as Suárez and Raúl crossed positions to reverse the offside, Qin Xiong passed the ball.
He stood on the spot and flicked the ball diagonally into the penalty area.
The football flew to the right side of the penalty area where Suárez ran diagonally.
Subotic's first move was to chase after Raúl, which made him miss the best opportunity to block Suárez.
When the football fell to Suárez's side, Suárez directly lifted his leg and volleyed!
He swept the ball to the top left corner of the goal, which was the far corner!
The goalkeeper, Weidenfeller, subconsciously tried to save but failed to touch the football. He looked back and was stunned to see the football hanging straight in the corner of the goal!
A world class ball!
Sort of.
At least the difficulty of volleying diagonally towards the goal in the penalty area was not small.
Suárez ran wildly around the field with open arms after breaking the goal and roared excitedly. He turned his head to look at Qin Xiong, his eyes full of pride!
He finally galloped in the Champions League in the Liverpool uniform!
And he broke through the opponent's goal for the team!
“OMG！ Liverpool played an exquisite coordination! The midfield passed almost 15 consecutive passes, and then Qin Xiong suddenly leaked the ball, turned around and passed Bender, and sent an exquisite pass. Suárez inserted diagonally into the empty area behind Subotic and volleyed the ball into the top left corner of the goal from an average angle!
The goal was wonderful and full of shock!
Suárez played in the Champions League group stage last season on behalf of Ajax. After joining Liverpool in the winter, he missed Liverpool's Champions League knockout stage journey in the second half of the season.
He regretfully said after Liverpool successfully defended the Champions League title that he was happy for the team's success, but he did not hide the disappointment in his heart. He hoped to win the trophy with the team and win the honor together. Now his dream has come true!
Seeing Suárez's wonderful goal, we don't wonder why The Times reported on Liverpool that the Red Army actually had another big signing in the summer, and that was Suárez!
Suárez, who can play in the Champions League, will make the Red Army stronger than last season!
Dortmund, who returned to the Champions League after seven years, is really unlucky. In the first game of the Champions League group stage, they met the defending Champions League champion, the Red Army, Liverpool. They are very passionate and the youth storm that they created has made people's eyes light up, but they have to go through the baptism of the strong!
Now that they are behind 0: 2 at home, what will Dortmund do? What will Klopp do? "
If Dortmund did not think about the gap in strength between them and Liverpool, then they were not too young, but too stupid and naive.
But maybe they did not think so much. Even if they lost the goal, they would work hard to win it back!
This was an immutable truth on the football field.
But when it came to it, it was a different scene and mentality.
Win it back?
How could they win it back?
Their offense could not surpass Liverpool's frantically sweeping back waist line, and Tiago Silva, who was like an ancient demon in the penalty area.
Their defense could not withstand Liverpool's treacherous attacking mode. Was it the flanks or the middle? Was it fast or slow? Was it a team cooperation or an individual breakthrough?
WTF！
Just one Qin Xiong was enough to give them a headache!
There was also Alonso in the midfield controlling the offensive rhythm, plus Suárez and Raúl, the finishers.
Dortmund might really realize what kind of terrifying existence they were facing now!
If the Red Army came to Germany's football world, they would easily sweep away the championship title and glory. They were the absolute kings who would create horror!
