ps, it’s the fourth update again. I think the fourth update has almost become a habit... I don’t know how long I can keep doing this. Let’s keep updating like this in July!

My wife is going to give birth in August, and the baby may be born at any time. I will be very busy by then and won’t have time to stably code, so the update speed may be slowed down. (Free download of full text e-book)

Hope everyone understands.

But now, while we can still update four times a day, I can confidently ask for a vote! !

This is Chen Yingxiong's first time participating in the Community Shield Cup. Even if he does not compare the number of honors with Messi, it is of great significance to him to participate in the Community Shield Cup for the first time.

He hopes to commemorate it with a championship.

But his teammates are not doing their best, especially Gotze.

Because this game is to test Gotze's adaptability to tactics, Martin O'Neill specifically told him before the game that the team's offense must be launched by Gotze. Now that Gotze is not performing well, Liverpool's offense has basically fallen into silence.

Everton, on the other hand, didn't have so many ideas. They just wanted to win the championship. They played vigorously and frequently threatened the goal guarded by Reina.

"Judging from these 30 minutes of the game, it is completely impossible to see that Liverpool was the league champion last season, nor can it be seen that they were able to defeat Manchester United at Old Trafford..."

The commentator shook his head frequently.

※ ※ ※

Although this game was a test for Gotze, Chen Yingxiong couldn't just watch the championship he won fly away... so he decided to do it himself.

Since you can't get the ball from the front, just retreat.

This retracement was indeed much better. Chen Yingxiong's retracement strengthened the connection between himself, Gotze, and other Liverpool teammates.

Mainly the latter.

Gareth Bale frequently launched attacks from the left to provide support for Chen Yingxiong.

In the forty minute, Liverpool finally equalized the score!

"Hero!! Here we go - beautiful!!!"

As the commentator roared, Chen Yingxiong received Bell's cross in front of the goal, jumped high, and headed the football into the goal.

Everton goalkeeper Howard was helpless. Although he made a save, he was beyond reach and could not touch him at all...

"This is the normal Liverpool! The normal Chen Yingxiong!!"

"When Liverpool decided to bypass Gotze and focus on the two wings, they immediately regained their vitality and threat! I think this game was a wake-up call for Martin O'Neill and asked him to rethink his positioning towards Gotze. Got it!"

"Liverpool equalized the score and the hero scored his first goal in an official game of the new season!"

"Header! This is the hero we are so familiar with! He is invincible in the air!"

After Chen Yingxiong scored, he did not open his arms and run wildly to celebrate, nor did he pounce on Gareth Bale who passed the ball to him. He directly stood in front of Everton's goal, screaming to the sky, his mouth wide open, and his face ferocious.

Bell rushed up to hug him.

Gotze also ran up, but he didn't hug him. He just watched from the side. This goal had nothing to do with him, and he even knew that the goal appeared precisely because it had nothing to do with him. Liverpool's attack bypassed him, this time passing the ball directly from the backcourt to Gareth Bale's feet. Then Bale crossed and the hero scored with a header. The whole process was nothing to do with me.

What would happen if the football was passed to your feet?

There won't be any goals, right?

He was a little lost.

The entire Liverpool team was celebrating the goal, and the Liverpool fans in the stands were also ecstatic, but he always felt that it had nothing to do with him. So he really couldn't muster the energy to cheer and celebrate.

※ ※ ※

The significance of Chen Yingxiong's goal is not only that he helped Liverpool equalize the score, but more importantly, it opened the door of terror in the hearts of Everton players, making the Everton players feel towards Chen Yingxiong. The fear returned.

They realized that their opponent was still the Liverpool with the terrifying Chen Yingxiong, not the Liverpool they could bully at will in the first thirty minutes...

This fact had a great impact on the psychology of Everton's players. Some people with average or poor psychological quality simply began to doubt whether they could still win the Community Shield. People with better psychological quality also began to have headaches about how to deal with Chen Yingxiong.

How to deal with Chen Yingxiong?

This question is just stupid!

Because there is no way to deal with Chen Yingxiong!

※ ※ ※

When Chen Yingxiong scored, the game actually lost its suspense, but many people were unwilling to admit this, or were too stupid to see it.

But it is what it is.

During the halftime break, Moyes made adjustments and asked the team to focus on defense, intending to hold on to the tie.

The Community Shield Cup is a determined game, and there is no overtime. If the two sides are tied within 90 minutes of the game, it will directly go to a penalty shootout.

The only way to defeat Liverpool with Chen Yingxiong may be to drag the game into a penalty shootout. Facing the penalty shootout, Liverpool's advantage may not be used. After all, in addition to technical psychology, the penalty shootout also involves luck. In front of luck, everyone is equal.

In other words, without penalty kicks, Everton's chance of beating Liverpool may be only 20%, but with penalty kicks, this chance rises to 50%. Although it's not to the point of winning, it's still much better than before...

But Chen Yingxiong didn't have the patience to deal with the opponent until the penalty kick.

The battle will be over in ninety minutes.

After the start of the second half, he frantically looked for scoring opportunities, constantly threatening Everton's goal.

In the 55th minute, after Gotze was replaced by Suarez, Liverpool's tactics returned to the ones they were familiar with last season, so the offense became smoother and the offense was naturally more threatening.

In the 67th minute, Chen Yingxiong grabbed a shot in the penalty area, but Howard saved it. Suarez followed up and succeeded in making a supplementary shot, and Liverpool turned defeat into victory.

In the 79th minute, Liverpool won a direct free kick. Chen Yingxiong personally took the penalty and sent the football into the Everton gate. 3:1, Liverpool secured the victory!

The Community Shield has lost its suspense.

"There is no doubt - Liverpool will win the Community Shield in 2014!"

"The Merseyside derby now only exists in a literal sense. In fact, Everton can no longer pose any threat to Liverpool... Unless Liverpool does not play Chen Yingxiong, but is this possible? Anyone who does not let Chen Yingxiong play is a fool. !”

When the Liverpool players lifted the shield-shaped Community Shield after the game, everyone was delighted except Gotze.

Gotze is naturally happy that the team won the championship. In any case, it is good that he can win a championship just after joining his new club.

But he was far less happy than his teammates around him.

Because he knew that for this champion, his contribution was pitiful and completely negligible. He can celebrate the championship here just because he is a member of Liverpool.

He doesn't like this feeling. When he was in Dortmund, as long as he won the championship, he definitely played an important role in the team. If the media listed the heroes who won the championship, he would be indispensable.

But here, he doesn't seem to matter.

If he just didn't play his due role in the decisive battle, Gotze might not be so frustrated. What made him so frustrated was that he didn't make a difference when he didn't score, and he found that Liverpool seemed to run more smoothly without him... This made him doubt his future - did Liverpool really need him?

In a large and cheerful crowd, Mario Gotze forced a smile.

But no one noticed him. Everyone was overwhelmed by the joy of winning the Community Shield and had no time to think about it.

The media that night and the next day was talking about Liverpool winning the Community Shield.

While praising Liverpool for winning the championship, many people also criticized Gotze's performance.

"I think this game can be regarded as a success for almost all the new players who joined Liverpool. Why I use the word 'almost' is because there must be one person who is not successful, and that person is Mario Gerard. Strategy..." the host said in the news reporting on Liverpool's championship. "People had high hopes before the game, hoping that he could bring inspiration and skills to Liverpool. However, his performance in the Community Shield match was extremely poor and devastating. So he only played for 55 minutes. He was replaced by Suarez. The Suarez who replaced him scored a goal in the game..."

"Götze's performance was poor. He seemed not to adapt to Liverpool's tactics and England's football style... When he encountered physical confrontation from Everton defenders during the game, his performance was not strong enough... "

"Gotze's Liverpool journey started with a bad game!"

The German media is also paying attention to the lives and games of their talented players in foreign countries.

Unlike England, which really has problems with Gotze, Germany is trying to put in good words and make excuses for Gotze.

"Götze just hasn't adapted to Liverpool's tactics and English football... I think with his intelligence, as long as he adapts, he will definitely show his abilities and open the eyes of those British guys!"

"Liverpool should be patient with Gotze. To be honest, I think Martin O'Neill's approach of replacing Gotze in the 55th minute was very wrong, because it will destroy Gotze's confidence and put a heavy burden on Gotze's back. The pressure and baggage is not a good thing...Götze is a super genius of German football. He should be carefully cared for and should not be treated so roughly!"

"Götze needs time now, but will those impatient British guys give him patience?"

Many people cannot answer this question.

Gotze is known as "the number one genius in German football today", but his performance in the World Cup was disappointing. Now he has transferred to the popular Liverpool, which has attracted the attention and high hopes of countless Germans. I hope Gotze can reopen the German's name in English football.

One can imagine how much pressure Gotze is under now.
