Martin O'Neal felt that his firm support for Chen Yingxiong still played a role. Chen Yingxiong's relationship with him became closer.

At least when he criticized Chen Yingxiong and other players the next day after the game, Chen Yingxiong had a very good attitude - accept it humbly!

By the way, before the training began that day, Martin O'Neal really gave everyone a stern face. He did not praise the players' spirit and fighting spirit just because the team won the game.

"I won this game, yes, we scored three points, and we also rose to the first place in the league. But what does this mean? It only means you are lucky!" On the training ground, Martin O'Neal stood among the players with a serious face, and the players formed a circle, with their hands behind their backs, and stood down to listen to the head coach's criticism.

"If it weren't for the hero's second goal, I dare not say whether we could win the game. Although we won the game, I want you all to know that this is a lesson! Good luck won't favor us every time! If you are always so proud and underestimating the enemy, I don't think we will go too far! I don't want to see you put the team in trouble next time for such stupid reasons!"

In fact, after the game, he seemed to say this in the locker room, but at that time, Chen Yingxiong's red card was very controversial. He had to go to the press conference to ting Chen Yingxiong, so he didn't have time to say it.

After saying it out now, he observed the players' reactions and found that the results were good.

The team was not so proud of their final victory.

Especially Chen Yingxiong, as the biggest contributor to the team's winning goal, he did not take credit and showed any disdain. He and other players, lowered his head and received criticism and education honestly.

Martin O'Neal thought to himself, would this be related to his efforts to ting him yesterday?

Um……

He found that treating Chen Yingxiong is really like treating a child. When he makes a mistake, you will never criticize him in front of everyone. You even have to support him and cannot give him a face. Then you can communicate with each other no matter how you two are. Because Martin O'Neal and Chen Yingxiong have talked solo several times, which also proves that Chen Yingxiong is not the kind of unreasonable, self-righteous, and self-centered person.

Martin O'Neal felt that after mo knew Chen Yingxiong's temper, it was not difficult to get along well with Chen Yingxiong and make full use of him...

To put it bluntly, it means to leave him enough face, and he will give you face.

O'Neal felt that he had some way to move, and he was more confident about his coaching prospects at Liverpool.

I also have more confidence in the upcoming away game against Anderlecht Belgium.

※※※

After playing the Merseyside Derby with Everton, the whole Liverpool team took a break and flew to Belgium together.

To compete in the third game of the Europa League group stage, their opponent was Anderlecht.

This game is very important for Liverpool, and if they can beat Anderlecht away, their qualifying situation will be bright.

Anderlecht is currently ranked second in the group, with one win and one draw after two games, and four points. Sporting Lisbon draw and one loss, one point, and third in the group. Grica is at the bottom, losing in both games, and zero points. Liverpool has won all two games and six points.

However, for Chen Yingxiong, qualifying in the group is not the goal he wants to pursue.

The group stage is to let him score the number of goals!

The Eat, Drink, Play and Play band is in action. The goal of this game is to get Chen Yingxiong to score as many goals as possible.

If Martin O'Neal knew what these players really thought, he would find that he was more confident before, and there was no need to...

Even if he doesn't criticize the players, it will not affect the result of this game...

Anderlecht is not an unknown person. They are the most successful team in Belgian football. Since the end of World War II, Anderlecht gradually became the greatest team in Belgian history. After winning the league championship for the first time in 1947, it was out of control. In the following sixty years, they won nearly half of the league championships - 31 times. In the Belgian League Cup, they also won the championship eight times, and the Belgian Super Cup eight times.

In the 1970s, Anderlecht focused on the European arena. Between 1976 and 1983, they won five European competition trophys, twice the Winners Cup, twice the UEFA Super Cup, and one UEFA Cup.

It is the most successful team in Belgium.

Enzo Shiff, the greatest player in Belgian football history, also debuted at Anderlecht.

In addition, the offside tactics that are now very commonly used were initially invented by Anderlecht.

This is definitely not an unknown person, but a famous noble family. However, as football becomes more and more commercialized, the gap between the teams in the small-national league and the teams in the top league is widening, and Anderlecht can only play the role of a strait...

Facing such an opponent, Martin O'Neal did not dare to neglect, but Chen Yingxiong did not consider whether he could win the game. He had only goals and goals in mind, and he only scored goals in addition to goals!

※※※

Chen Yingxiong is full of motivation because Messi did not score in the Champions League match yesterday. His number of goals is still three.

This gave Chen Yingxiong the opportunity to overtake him.

He will start killing this game!

Although Anderlecht once invented the offside tactic, it was a special product of a special period. The offside rule at that time was that as long as the ball was passed, players on the offensive side appeared behind the defense line and between the goalkeeper. Regardless of whether these people participated in the offense or not, they were considered offside.

So when watching the game at that time, the ball migrants often see that when the opponent's players plan to pass the ball, the defending players will press forward very quickly and neatly, leaving the offensive players behind. At this time, as long as the football passes over, the referee will blow the whistle and indicate that the attacking side will be offside.

This move can kill many opponents' offensive opportunities.

Later, this trick was learned by Milan's Saki, and Milan carried it forward.

But such a game now looks quite funny... because the defense has become a simple overall front pressure on the back line, leaving the opponent behind, rather than a person-to-one competition, a one-on-one competition between tactics and technology...

So later FIFA also felt that this offside tactic was too rampant, which completely damaged the development of football and lost its meaning and fun. So he modified the offside rules, stipulating that as long as those offensive players who were left behind did not participate in the offense and did not interfere with the defensive players, it would not be considered offside.

In this way, those offside tactics become unsuccessful, and teams that attempt to offside will die miserably.

The offside tactic invented by Anderlecht completely disappeared into the long history of football development.

Nowadays, the tactic of offside is still more complicated than before, and the grasp of timing is stricter. Of course, the possibility of failure is also very high... the risk is greater, and it has become a typical double-edged sword. There are not many teams using it.

Now Anderlecht no longer uses offside tactics - now facing strong teams, the best defensive strategy for weak teams is not to offside, but to park a bus in front of the goal and then perform hand-to-hand defense against important teams.

Both Chen Yingxiong and Liverpool were treated like this.

Anderlecht knew Liverpool's power and knew better the horror of Chen Yingxiong. They did not rush out to fight Liverpool because they were playing at home.

Anderlecht's goal is to qualify in the group, rather than to win Liverpool at home. If they can draw Liverpool at home, they will win. Because their direct competitor is not Liverpool, but Sporting Lisbon. Sporting Lisbon is a away challenge to Grica, and their winning should not be a big problem.

If Anderlecht loses to Liverpool at home, then Sporting Lisbon will tie the points.

On the contrary, what if Anderlecht draws Liverpool at home? They will have one more point than Sporting Lisbon and still have the advantage.

So Anderlecht's goal in this game is to tie the opponent.

But how could Chen Yingxiong give them such a chance?

Didn't being tied by Anderlecht mean that he won't score a lot of goals? If you want to say that you can score a lot of goals in any draw, it means that Anderlecht can score a lot of goals, I'm afraid that few people will believe it?

Although Anderlecht is at his home court, it is amazing to be able to score two goals under the tactical guiding ideology of defending with all his strength and striving for a draw.

※※※

Anderlecht was eager to draw Liverpool at his home court, and for this reason they gave up their offense and chose to defend to the death.

But they only persisted in such a defense for twenty-one minutes...

In the 22nd minute, Chen Yingxiong grabbed the spot in the penalty area. After receiving a pass from Suarez, he scored the ball into the goal with his right foot, setting the team's first record!

At the same time, this is also his fourth goal in the Europa League this season, and he continues to lead the scorer list.

This concealment did not make Anderlecht give up the idea of ​​continuing to defend. After all, it is not a big deal to be left behind by only one ball. As long as the goal is not conceded in the first half, after the adjustment of the midfield break, Anderlecht still has hope of equalizing the score.

And hope is not small.

But three minutes later, Liverpool made a comeback and Chen Yingxiong made a comeback!

After Chen Yingxiong took the ball with his back outside the penalty area, he suddenly turned around!

Then he made a straight shot outside the penalty area and turned around and shot a long time!

Football only has a dead corner, and Liverpool leads 2:0 away!

If they fell behind two goals, Anderlecht could not hold on... It was not just that they were struggling with two goals, but what was even more terrifying was that through these two goals, they found that the deadly defending was useless for Chen Yingxiong!

Is it that I will continue to defend myself and hope that I can stop losing the ball if I have better luck?

Or change the tactics and turn to attack, and hope that you can get a point back if you have a good luck and narrow the score gap to one goal?

Anderlecht's head coach made a decision after thinking - a defensive counterattack!

Not only do you defend yourself, but you still have to fight back.

This decision was quite rational, which means that he has not lost his calmness and has not been in chaos. If he lets the team push out and attack, he will probably die even more miserably. But if he defends to the death, it will damage the players' enthusiasm.

Therefore, the safest plan is to defend and counterattack.

But such calmness and rationality are not rational at all. In front of Chen Yingxiong, who has been crazy in pursuit of goals, it is meaningless!

Before the end of the first half, Liverpool got a free kick opportunity. Chen Yingxiong took the penalty and took a beautiful powerful free kick. The football was hit by him for the third time!

"hero--!!!"

The commentator roared with a lengthening voice.

"Liverpool led the home team Anderlecht with three goals in the first half! The goalkeeper Chen Yingxiong again! He scored a hat trick!"

"It's incredible! The hero faces Anderlecht, who is not weak in the group away, can easily score a hat trick! The nickname "bug" given to him by the British media is truly worthy of his name! For Anderlecht, Chen Yingxiong is an unsolvable 'bug'!"

"The Europa League has only played three games, and the hero has already scored six goals! The Chen Yingxiong, who had scored thirteen goals in seven games in the Champions League, has indeed returned! This is after a season, he has re-entered the European game. Although it is only a lower-level Europa League, the hero's performance is as sharp as ever! He proved to us his terrifying goal-scoring ability! Are the whole of Europe ready to tremble under his feet!"

※※※

I don’t know whether Europe is trembling, at least Anderlecht has begun to tremble.

After fifteen minutes of halftime break, it can be seen that Anderlecht's head coach did not make any targeted and effective adjustments during the halftime break. He just let the team push out the attack in the second half - it cannot be said that his approach is wrong. After all, he is already behind three goals, and it is almost impossible to win a draw. So instead of doing this, it is better to score a few more goals. Maybe Liverpool relaxed after leading three goals in the first half? The goal will not continue to score in the second half, so the home team can not only score goals, but also recover a little loss in the goal difference.

However, such an approach seems meaningless in the face of Liverpool's still strong offensive in the second half.

In the end, Anderlecht really scored the goal. They scored a goal in the second half, which saved some face.

Chen Yingxiong did not score in the second half, and his teammates Suarez and Ag each scored one goal, helping Liverpool beat Anderlecht 5-1 away.

After three games, Liverpool won three games and scored nine points, which basically established the advantage of qualifying in the group. If there is any suspense, it may be the suspense of the first or second in the group, but this suspense is actually very small...it doesn't make any sense.

Chen Yingxiong scored a hat-trick in the game, scoring a total of six goals in the Europa League, continuing to dominate the top spot in the Europa League scorer list.

As mentioned before, Chen Yingxiong is a Champions League shooter, and playing in the Europa League is actually condescending, so the gap between his strength in the other people on the scorer list is very obvious.
Chapter completed!
