Volume 1: The Hero Appears, People Pay Attention Chapter 297 History II (Additional Compensation)
Piaotian Literature The highly anticipated Liverpool and Arsenal match turned out to be one-sided.
Arsenal struggled for a while, and Van Persie scored a goal, after which they had no more strength to resist.
However, Liverpool was also very smart to slow down the pace of the game.
When the victory has been determined, there is really no need to continue to attack wildly, and it is not advisable to do so without sparing physical strength.
Because this will consume a lot of physical strength unnecessarily, this approach is not smart.
Reasonable allocation of physical energy is a compulsory course for professional players and a necessary quality for professional teams.
Those players who start running hard as soon as they come on the court are basically inexperienced young people. They will soon suffer from excessive physical exhaustion and perform abnormally.
On the basis of reasonable allocation of physical energy, mastering the rhythm of the game is a more advanced skill, which is not something that all players and teams can learn to use.
Rhythm is very important. In a game, if you want to win and win easily, you have to let the game go at your own pace. If the game falls into the opponent's rhythm, you will play very hard.
When to attack, when to retreat, when to be aggressive, and when to be passive. These are all rhythm control issues.
If Liverpool does not change the rhythm and continue to attack Arsenal, it will be a last gasp. After this game, it is estimated that they will be exhausted.
They still need to reserve physical strength for the next game.
Martin O'Neill also made adjustments and began to replace players on the field.
Adam Johnson replaced Sanchez and Charlie Adam replaced Inler.
In the last ten minutes, he replaced Carragher with Coates.
It can be regarded as giving the three players enough rest time.

Chen Yingxiong still stayed on the court, not to score more goals. Now that Liverpool has slowed down the rhythm, the number of attacks is much less, and there are even fewer threatening attacks.
He stayed on the court to help the team defend-as long as he is on the court, the opponent can't come out in full force.
This is the strategic deterrent force.
In the end, Arsenal was unable to score a goal. In fact, Arsenal also realized that it was not a good idea to go head-to-head with this Liverpool team, so they chose to avoid it. Since the opponent is fierce, we can afford to avoid it, right?
Don't fight Liverpool to the death, save your strength to play other games. This season's Premier League is not over.
In the end, Liverpool defeated Arsenal, who came to challenge, with a score of 3:1 at their home court.
Chen Yingxiong assisted a goal and was elected the best player of the game.
His goal tied the league goal number of 49 goals scored by Aston Villa player Tom Walling in the 1930-31 season.
Now the only one ahead of him is the record of 60 goals in a single season created by Everton legendary striker Dixie Dean in the 1927-28 season.
And there are five rounds left in the league, and it is estimated that he has no hope this season...
Now no one talks about his consecutive goal record. Because everyone is numb-no matter how awesome things become commonplace and can be seen every weekend, they will lose their charm. Scarcity makes things valuable. Who cares if there are too many?
He has scored in 24 consecutive league games. It's not that this is not good, not amazing or anything else. It's that now everyone knows that he will continue to score goals, so if he breaks the record now, everyone will soon find that they have nothing to say. Isinbayeva also breaks her own record one centimeter at a time, but she won't break it once a week, right? Everyone can still rack their brains and reorganize their words to praise her, or even directly take out the article that praised her a year ago.
This trick doesn't work on Chen Yingxiong. He sets new records every week, and the cheers are too loud now. How to break through himself next? I'm afraid you have to shout until your voice is hoarse.
Everyone is now holding back and waiting for Chen Yingxiong to stop. At this time, everything will be settled, and everyone will cheer again. Praise and flatter again, as disgusting as you can.
There are even bookmakers that offer odds on this matter. There are a group of people in the world who specialize in betting on how many rounds it will take Chen Yingxiong to end his scoring streak...
Chen Yingxiong sometimes thinks these bookmakers are really boring, and they can even bet on such things.
Chen Yingxiong's 49 league goals are worth discussing for a while.
Forty-nine goals. Since the establishment of the Premier League, there have been many outstanding world-class strikers who have fought here, but none of them have been able to score so many goals in this event.
Although Dixie Dean once scored 60 goals in the top league of the time, the English League One, that was in the 19227-28 season. At that time, football was still immature, and the offside rule alone had undergone many changes.
initial. Football is a chaotic sport. For a team, all they have to do in the game is score as many goals as possible. Every player on the field acts as an attacker, and the team has no organization at all. So at that time, football was a sport in which a large group of people ran around chasing a ball and trying to shoot it. In 1863, the English Football Association introduced the offside rule, which stipulated that "any player in front of the kicker is offside, and the offside player shall not touch the ball." There were some small changes to the football formation, with an attacking player being pulled back as a central defender to help the slightly lonely goalkeeper. This offside rule turns football into a dribbling sport and makes scoring difficult.
Based on this, the offside rule was modified in 1868 to "there must be at least three opposing players between the offensive player and the goal line when the ball is passed (by a teammate)." After that, the roles and responsibilities of the players were more clearly divided. The 1-1-8 formation also evolved from the 1-2-7 formation and then evolved into the 2-2-6 formation. This formation was adopted by the Royal Garden Rangers in 1870. . This formation eventually developed into the pyramid-style 2-3-5 formation, which Uruguay used to win the 1930 World Cup. This formation continues to keep the attack dynamic, using two wide players to feed the three forwards in the middle. However, due to the offside rules at the time, it was still not easy to score goals in this formation.
As a result, the offside rule was revised again in 1925, and the three players in the previous rule became two players. This greatly increased the number of goals scored in the game.
Dixie Dean scored 60 goals in the 1927-28 season, which had nothing to do with the change in this rule. The defense at that time was far less strict than it is now. And lots of variety.
This is why there are fewer and fewer goals in football nowadays.
Modern football has taken defense to the extreme, and it has become not so easy to score goals. Those world-class shooters who can score five or six goals in an international competition are considered the top scorers.
Under such circumstances, it is indeed remarkable that Chen Yingxiong can still score 49 goals in a season.
Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo's goals in one La Liga season have exceeded 50. However, everyone agrees that La Liga's defensive level is very poor. Ronaldo's ability to score fifty goals has a lot to do with La Liga's kindergarten-level defense.
The Premier League pays more attention to physical confrontation, and it is not that easy to score goals.
Not to mention before he came to the Premier League. It has conquered the Italian Football League, which is known as the strongest defensive league.
"Being born in the same era as heroes, I don't know whether we are lucky or unlucky. The fans are happy, but the players may not think so... All we can do now is to sit back and see if he can make it before the end of the league. How many goals. Dixie Dean's single-season scoring record may not be broken, but in today's era... Such results are enough to make him stand out from the crowd. In fact, being the second in history is not bad, a hero! …”
But Chen Yingxiong didn't think so.
He doesn't want to be second in history, if possible. He is still the first in history! Only the first can leave a name forever!
Besides, can the second place be considered a great hero?

After Liverpool defeated Arsenal at home, they are still three points ahead of Manchester United, which shows that Manchester United has also won.
Everyone's eyes were on Liverpool, but they ignored that Manchester United's performance was actually very good. They were able to catch up from ten points behind to only three points away. This shows that when Liverpool took a nap, Manchester United never relaxed.
It seems that the decisive battle for the Premier League title this season will be staged in the thirty-sixth round.
But not before that. Liverpool still have to deal with their semi-final opponents first.
There is no rest time at all, there is another Champions League semi-final in midweek. This is their third consecutive week of doubleheaders.
This is what makes Ferguson happy.
Manchester United has been eliminated and they can concentrate on preparing for the decisive battle with Liverpool.
As for Liverpool, they still have to focus on playing in the Champions League semi-finals. Their opponent is the German giant Bayern Munich, which is known for its tenacity.
It is still a home and away arrangement that is not conducive to them.
Ferguson believes this will drain Liverpool of their last remaining strength.
When the thirty-sixth round of the league comes, they will usher in an exhausted Liverpool at Old Trafford. This team may not even have the strength to fight back and can only let it go. Manchester United ravaged.
By then, with the right time, right place, right people, and everyone on his side, Ferguson couldn't think of any other way he could lose this decisive battle!
But before that, I have to cheer for Liverpool. Hopefully they can beat Bayern Munich, preferably with all their energy. Try your best and pay all the costs. Eliminate Bayern Munich again.
Then at Old Trafford, Manchester United will give Liverpool the final fatal blow and let them rest in peace.
Death at the hands of a sworn enemy is considered a well-deserved death, right?
