Football: The strongest post-zero generation

On November 24, the thirteenth round of the 2018-2019 Premier League season will start a big battle.

Premier League giants Liverpool play Watford away and everyone will be waiting to see if Liverpool can continue their winning streak and extend their winning streak.

At the same time, Paris Saint-Germain sat at home and welcomed their 14th opponent Toulouse.

Less than nine minutes into the game, Cavani, the leading scorer of Paris Saint-Germain, received a pass from his teammates to open the scoring, which put more pressure on Liverpool, who were playing away.

Of course, most of the pressure is on Klopp, and after the game started, major media commentators and commentators were not optimistic about Liverpool's game today.

Even though Liverpool won at home in the last meeting between the two sides in March, Watford, a team that is barely mid-table in the Premier League, still has its home advantage.

Watford have won five of their last seven Premier League home games, including a home win over Tottenham.

Therefore, this time the Reds Liverpool will visit Watford, and they will definitely suffer a severe test from the home team, especially in the Liverpool starting lineup for this game, there are many main players who did not appear.

Gomes was rotated at the back, with Lovren and Virgil van Dijk partnering in central defence, with the two full-backs unchanged, Robertson and Alexander-Arnold, midfield captain Jordan Henderson out injured and vice-captain James Milner given the chance to play alongside Wijnaldum.

Jurgen Klopp's formation today is 4231, and the midfield personnel have changed a lot from the previous game, with Lallana, Shaqiri and Li Qing lined up, with Roberto Firmino at the front.

Such a lineup is the first time to appear this season, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the key to Liverpool's game is still in the play of the star Li Qing.

If Li Qing's performance is stable, then Liverpool should not have much problem winning all three points, but if Li Qing is frozen by the opponent, whether Liverpool can retreat from Watford's home stadium must definitely draw a big question mark.

As a result, Watford showed their strong home strength to Liverpool from the beginning of the game, and in the second minute of the opening minute, Watford striker Deulofeu received a pass from a teammate and got a single chance to score.

However, Deulofeu was already in an offside position when he received the ball, so the goal was ruled invalid, but it also shocked many people in a cold sweat.

For the remainder of the first half, both sides played very cautiously, with both teams combined for no more than five shots on goal, and Li Qing seemed a little idle on the pitch, which made the Liverpool fans who came to watch the game with the team very worried.

Because Liverpool's usual style of play is too high-intensity running, and the players themselves pull out enough offensive opportunities, so under normal circumstances, Liverpool can easily lead the opponent in the last score.

Once the opponent dragged it to the second half and did not open the deadlock, Liverpool's serve will be due to too much physical exertion in the first half, and there will be unstable mistakes, so the opponent will have a chance to score.

Obviously, in today's game, Ward's coach has made tactical arrangements for his players, after all, no matter how strong Liverpool's players are, they are also very tired after so many days of club and national team games.

And not too many of Watford's players have national team tasks, and they are playing at home, so they are physically superior to Liverpool.

Therefore, the Watford manager put the game in the second half, which can be regarded as a good tactical arrangement.

But what he never expected was that in the dressing room of the Liverpool team at halftime, the players were not as tired as he thought.

Klopp looked at Milner with a smile on his face at this time, "My captain, it's already half time, when are you going to do what you promised me?"

Milner was a little stunned, and after glancing at Li Qing again, Ai Ai said with a little hesitation: "Sixty, oh, no, seventy minutes before the game, I promise to break the deadlock." "

Klopp raised his eyebrows, "That's what you said, if you can't do it, you'll know when you go back." "

Milner's face suddenly became bitter when he heard this, and he regretted his mistake when he thought of what he promised Klopp before.

At the beginning of the second half, Milner grabbed Li Qing with some uneasiness and asked in a low voice: "Li, we are brothers, and it will all depend on you next!"

Li Qing originally wanted to tease Milner, but when he noticed a certain position in the stands on the court, Li Qing immediately straightened up, "Don't worry, captain, everything has me!"

After speaking, Li Qing ran towards the field, but thinking of the scene on the training ground two days ago, he still couldn't help but laugh.

Not to mention that curiosity killed the cat, Klopp, who was curious about the magic potion in Li Qing's thermos pot, just smelled the smell of the thermos pot, and directly vomited nausea.

At that time, Milner and the others suddenly laughed heartlessly and almost died, but Klopp, who was quite annoyed afterwards, decided that if Milner and others could not score in today's game, he would double their training volume as punishment.

Moreover, Klopp also specially obtained Li Qing's 'consent', in order to avoid the physical strain caused by Milner and others when they practiced, Li Qing will specially distribute a cup of 'love medicine' for them to supplement their physical strength.

Milner and the others, who had already had nightmares about Li Qing's decoction, were directly frightened, and Gomez was even really scared because of this, so he missed today's game.

However, Milner and Lallana could not escape, and the two of them worked hard in the first half, but the effort did not translate into goals, and as a result, Klopp's 'coercion' at half-time gave them a great sense of pressure.

In fact, Li Qing also has a sense of urgency, Tong Shenbing is watching the game in the VIP room of the stadium at the moment, to understand whether his strength is stronger than in the past after drinking the decoction, if Li Qing can't perform well in this game, Tong Shenbing will consider giving him an increase!

So in the second half of the game, Li Qing began to exert his strength, in the 67th minute, Firmino passed the ball to the feet of Li Qing who burst into the penalty area, Li Qing did not stop the ball, directly crossed the middle, Milner outflanked the goal in the middle, and fulfilled his promise.

Ten minutes later, Liverpool got a free kick opportunity, and Li Qing got the opportunity to shoot straight into the corner of the opponent's goal to extend the lead.

In the last minute of the game, Li Qing's shot in the middle was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper, and Lallana, who was already a little anxious, grabbed in front of Firmino and put the ball into the net, finally breathing a sigh of relief. _
