Good morning to all fans and friends, first apologize to everyone, sorry, I saw the wrong game time, originally thought that the game between Bayer Leverkusen and Frankfurt started in the middle of the night on the 2nd, and the result was a day in advance. Delayed the arrangement of fans and friends to watch the ball, sorry sorry sorry ha. The holidays are over, don't you know if you have fun with your family and friends? This holiday is over, but the excitement has just begun, and tonight the Champions League is here again. Let's continue to talk about the second leg of Huang Qian and Liverpool.
Although the gap between the strength of the two sides is relatively large in this game between Liverpool and Huang Qian last week, after all, Liverpool's multi-front combat tasks are heavy, and they also have to take into account the task needs of other fronts, so it is also enough to save face for Huang Qian. Although we rationally talk about Liverpool's advantages now, they have reached the stage of semi-finals, and the two sides are only one step away from the final, and Huang Qian is impossible to give up. Coupled with the fact that today they are playing at their own doorstep, they must want to fight hard, and it is really difficult to say whether they will create a miracle in this case. After all, we should have learned the lesson of Liverpool playing Inter in the front, and I think everyone should not go up first. Let's first objectively analyze it according to the preparations of both sides.
Villarreal
After finishing the first leg, they gave Alaves, who were deep in the relegation zone, a valuable three-pointer in the league, while their side was rotated by as many as eight people.
Herald Moreno
From this posture, it is really necessary to fight Liverpool to the death, and at this juncture, their main centre-forward Herard Moreno also returned in time, and has participated in the team training yesterday, including centre-back Albiol and back Kirkland have returned.
Danjuma
It can be said that Huang Qian has adjusted the lineup to the strongest state as much as possible, but Danjuma and Pino, who have performed well before, have not participated in the team training. I think this should be a smoke bomb released by Huang Qian before the game, because Pino was unwell before and did not participate in the Champions League with Liverpool, and Danjuma was not injured in the game, so it should be deliberately concealing the situation of Danjuma and trying to disrupt Liverpool's tactical deployment. It can be said that Huang Qian has done his best in all aspects.
Villarreal was undefeated at home in the European semi-finals
According to statistics, Villarreal has never lost at home in European competitions (including the Champions League and Europa League), after playing a total of 5 semi-final home matches and achieving an unbeaten record of 3 wins and 2 draws.
In order:
03-04 UEFA Cup semi-finals, Villarreal 0-0 Valencia
05-06 Champions League semi-finals, Villarreal 0-0 Arsenal
10-11 Europa League semi-finals, Villarreal 3-2 Porto
15-16 Europa League semi-finals, Villarreal 1-0 Liverpool
20-21 Europa League semi-finals, Villarreal 2-1 Arsenal
But like the one in the semi-finals in '06, I think Villarreal has reached its limit.
Liverpool
Throughout April they were still very busy, playing 9 games in 30 days, basically one game every three days, fortunately, the opponents they encountered in the Champions League were not very strong, and the substitute lineup was strong, so they were able to take care of all fronts. So I always think that God is on Liverpool's side, and with this luck, it is not difficult for Liverpool to reach the final. Although the Liverpool side has a tight schedule, they also rotated in the last game against Newcastle, and some of the main players were given rest time.
Firmino
Now liverpool side is missing only centre-forward Firmino, the squad is intact, and it is difficult to say who can beat them. So from the perspective of preparation, it is obvious that Liverpool is more comfortable. Although Huang Qian is sitting at home, after all, the top priority at the moment is to chase the gap back within 90 minutes, so the time is a friend of Liverpool, but it is Huang Qian's enemy. One is the desperate bet of a battle against the water, the other is to see and dismantle the tricks of waiting for work, under the two completely different states of mind, I think Huang Qian not only can not play his own strength, but will make Liverpool play more handy.
Everyone is recognized as the pinnacle showdown
As we said earlier, Liverpool's team is indeed more jealous of opponents like Manchester City with passing ability in midfield, but Huang Qian's passing ability should not reach the level of Manchester City, and at the same time they have to take the initiative to attack, Liverpool is the best at playing against others. If he really plays like this, Huang Qian will be in the arms of Liverpool. The two sides will still take into account each other's faces in this battle, and Huang Qian will definitely play better than before, but it should still be Liverpool who advances to the final. Liverpool have the possibility of beating Huang Qian again in this battle, because only beating the opponent is the most stable way to qualify, but Liverpool not only has to prepare for the Champions League final, but it is also difficult to play Tottenham and Chelsea in the league. Therefore, if Huang Qian refuses to give up easily, then it is completely acceptable for Liverpool to stay a little bit to protect a draw.
Friends who feel that what Ah Sheng said makes sense, please also pay more likes to support a wave.
We'll see you tomorrow, bye-bye!
