Chapter 684 Victory at Anfield
Hodgson slammed his fist on the seat beside him.
Conceding the ball again at the beginning of the second half was something Hodgson didn't expect.
He is a little frustrated now. He feels that the adjustments and efforts he made during the half-time break have become useless with this conceded goal.
no.
The coffin has not been crucified yet, and he still has a chance.
Hodgson felt he could do another salvage.
The former Benitez was able to comeback from zero to three, and his team is now two to five, and it is not without chance of a comeback!
Liverpool immediately made substitution adjustments, Meireles was replaced, and the English player Joe Cole, who joined the team on a free transfer from Chelsea, came on as a substitute.
Werner glanced at Fang Jue with admiration:
Meireles replaced, Joe Cole came off the bench.
There are also teams looking for goals through long-range shots.
Fang Jue's prediction made at halftime, except for the difference in time, everything else was right!
"Aston Villa's victory has been decided, winning is not a problem, now it depends on how many they can win in the end." Howe said.
Liverpool must not be reconciled to losing at home. They will definitely try to score goals, and Aston Villa may continue to score goals. In the end, it depends on the score. However, the problem of winning is not a big problem.
Diego Costa's goal in the first minute of the second half directly changed the rhythm of the second half.
Liverpool attacked like crazy, and Aston Villa also concentrated all their strength on the right side of Liverpool.
The two sides fought a battle.
"It's definitely the team's favorite game to see."
In the 53rd minute of the game, Dirk assisted Torres to score a goal. The Spanish golden boy scored twice and also rewritten the score to 3-5. Liverpool once again narrowed the gap.
However, just six minutes later, Diego Costa half-turned in the penalty area and swept the football to the back point, and Ronaldo volleyed past Liverpool's goal.
Six to three, Aston Villa once again widened the gap to three goals.
"Three goals, one assist, Costa, who came off the bench, has already booked the best of the game today!" Lineker said in admiration.
Fang Jue also made substitution adjustments to the team.
Ronaldo, who had just scored, was replaced.
Mane came on as a substitute.
Aston Villa changed into a four-three-three, Clement, Ballack and Deisler formed a midfield three, Bale went to the right, Mane was on the left, Costa was in the middle, Aston Villa played Three strikers tactic.
In the 81st minute of the game, Mane used his speed to pass Kelly, who couldn't even stop the Senegalese.
After dribbling into the penalty area, Mane took a shot.
The football was blocked by Carragher stretching his leg.
Costa got ahead of everyone else and volleyed the ball into the net.
"Gooooooooooooooooooal!"
"Fourth! Fourth! Fourth! Costa scored his fourth goal today, which is also his 13th goal in the league this season! The league has played 16 rounds, and Costa has scored 13 goals , In addition, counting today's game, he has four assists!" John Mortensen shouted, "It's an incredible performance, you must know that he came off the bench today!"
This goal also completely destroyed Liverpool's fighting spirit.
No matter how tenacious Liverpool is, no matter how beneficial the Anfield stadium is, there is nothing they can do to face such a situation.
With the team leading by a large score, Fang Jue also began to deploy troops to give young people more playing time.
Albrighton came off the bench, replacing Gareth Bale, and Aston Villa's lineup returned to a midfield four.
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle to signal the end of the focus battle, the score was fixed at 3-7.
According to international practice in football matches, the home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.
Aston Villa beat Liverpool 7-3 away.
Fang Jue took the initiative to find Hodgson and shook hands with him.
Looking at the extremely frustrated Hodgson, Fang Jue comforted him, "Actually, you have already played very well."
Hodgson glared.
"I'm serious, ten players challenged and scored three goals, that's amazing." Fang Jue's face was full of sincerity.
Hodgson looked at this face, resisting the urge to punch this guy.
At the press conference after the game, Liverpool coach Hodgson strongly criticized the referee on duty, thinking that the red card shown by the referee to goalkeeper Reina was too severe, which directly changed the process and result of the game.
Fang Jue retorted. He thought that if the referee hadn't shown mercy, Konchesky would have been sent off for handball in the penalty area before Reina was sent off.
A heated altercation broke out between the two at the press conference.
...
In addition, Brazilian star Ronaldinho appeared in the stands at Anfield to watch the game, which also caused a lot of speculation in the media.
Liverpool have denied contact with Ronaldinho.
Aston Villa's explanation for this is that Ronaldinho is Fang Jue's friend, and he came to see Aston Villa's game. Is there anything strange about this?
London, Chelsea, Cobham training base.
Chelsea's high-level meeting.
Chelsea club chairman Bros. Barker, club director Marina Granovskaia and club chief executive Ron Gurley, Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti attended.
The video being played on the large-screen TV in the conference room is the clip of the match between Liverpool and Aston Villa at home.
"Judging from this game, Torres has come out of the injury, the two goals are very exciting." Ancelotti said.
"Needless to say Torres, we have been chasing him since the summer." Ron Gurley said, "Look at this player, Diego Costa, who scored four dollars in this game, and now he The number of goals in the league is 13 goals, he has surpassed Berbatov's 10 goals and is the top scorer list."
"What we have to discuss now is, continue to increase our strength and win Torres, or consider Diego Costa?"
Discussions began in the conference room. Diego Costa is a new option. Before that, Chelsea had been chasing Torres.
At the beginning of this season, Chelsea, which frequently staged a 6-goal feast, fell all the way after Wilkinson, the team's meritorious assistant coach for 27 years, was fired. It has become commonplace for several rounds to be slaughtered.
Although there has been a slight improvement recently, it is a recognized fact that the team's offensive ability has declined.
It is an indisputable fact that the ups and downs of Drogba and Anelka, who are over 30 years old, are up-and-coming stars such as Sturridge and embarrassing.
Ancelotti has been emphasizing that the team needs to introduce a top scorer to supplement the offensive strength.
The owner of the Blues, Abramovich, has always liked big money. He is used to spending tens of millions of pounds for fun. He has made up his mind to sign Torres in the summer and set off a frenzy of signings.
It's just that Liverpool has been refusing to let people go, so the summer transfer did not win Torres.
Later, considering Torres' injury, Chelsea's interest in Torres faded a little bit. However, in the last few games, Torres recovered from the injury and was in quite good condition. Chelsea rekindled their interest in Torres.
When Ancelotti was in AC Milan, he admired Torres very much. He was one of the members who insisted on introducing Torres.
Especially the team owner Abramovich has always admired Torres.
"I think Costa can be considered. This player is younger and is in a very good state." said the club's chairman Bros. Barker. They are all very good, more secure, and Torres also wants to leave Liverpool, so it needs to be considered comprehensively."
Saying this is tantamount to not saying it. Everyone knows that the club owner Buck mainly follows the will of the team's big boss and will not express his opinion easily.
However, there is some truth in what he said. Torres became famous at a young age, and after so many years, he has been very stable.
Torres, who will be 27 years old this year, played for Atletico Madrid when he was 17 years old. During his time at Atletico Madrid, he played 174 league games for the team and scored 74 goals.
He is not only the youngest captain in the history of Atletico Madrid, but also an epoch-making banner figure of the Sheets.
In the case that Atletico Madrid could not realize the wish of the championship, Torres chose to leave England in order to write a more brilliant club resume. After joining Liverpool with a club record of 26.5 million pounds, he gradually became the new favorite of Anfield.
The Red Army No. 9 spent a very good rookie season in the Premier League at Liverpool.
Although he was often associated with injuries for two consecutive seasons, and the team's coach changed hands for the second time, Torres was already dissatisfied with the environment in Liverpool.
Chelsea and Torres have communicated, and the latter does not exclude coming to Chelsea.
The contract that Torres just signed with Liverpool until the summer of 2013 contains a buyout clause: Once another club offers 50 million pounds, Liverpool must allow him to leave.
Digging Torres, starting from the summer, has been an important signing job for Chelsea, and it has a working basis.
Or, to put it more bluntly, as long as they spend 50 million pounds, Liverpool can get Torres.
In the summer, there was no liquidated damages clause of 50 million pounds. At that time, Chelsea's offer was once raised to 35 million pounds. Liverpool disagreed, and the transfer was not completed in the end.
Subsequently, Liverpool and Torres renewed their contract and formulated a liquidated damages clause of 50 million pounds. From the perspective of the Red Army, this price tag is safe.
Several people looked at Marina Granovskaya.
She is the personal secretary of Chelsea boss Roman Abramovich, and she is an absolute confidant, and she has more and more voice in the Chelsea club.
The opinions of Marina Granovskaia largely represent the current wishes and tendencies of team owner Abramovich.
