Liverpool has been quite unhappy this season. Not only has he been banned from signing, but the main players in the team have also been targeted by other teams.

During the summer transfer period, Real Madrid Club sent a quote to Xavi Alonso.

As a Spanish international, Xavi Alonso is very moved by the invitation of Real Madrid.

In the end, the Qataris offered a sky-high contract extension, which barely kept Xavi Alonso.

Not only that, another Spanish international in Liverpool, the main striker Torres, has also received many offers from the club.

Torres has been transferring to Liverpool for two years since Atletico Madrid. In these two years, Torres scored 24 goals for Liverpool club in his first season.

Last season, he contributed 33 goals to Liverpool Club in 46 games.

Torres' super high goal rate immediately attracted the attention of many wealthy clubs.

Among them, Chelsea Club even offered him a sky-high price of 60 million euros.

Ancelotti wants to use Torres to replace Shevchenko, who is already 33 years old this year and has a serious decline in competitive form.

In the end, the Qatari had to adopt the same method as Xavi Alonso, leaving Torres with a sky-high renewal.

A player didn't buy it, but instead paid a lot of money to go out. The Qatar boss who just joined the Liverpool club is imaginable.

If the boss is in a bad mood, the people below will naturally not have a good life.

As the team's head coach, Benitez was the first to be the first victim.

In addition, Liverpool's performance in the new season was not ideal, so he was under great pressure.

The Qataris trust him far less than the two American bosses before.

After seeing Chelsea get a point from Crystal Palace, Benitez also breathed a sigh of relief, wanting to get points from Crystal Palace like Chelsea and prove his ability to the new boss.

Goalkeeper Reina

On the Crystal Palace, the players in the team are basically international players from various countries now.

So after every national team match day, Chen Ran waited for a group of exhausted players.

In desperation, he could only arrange the starting lineup of this game according to the results of the physical test report.

Forward Ronaldo, forward Dzeko

Left forward Evra, central forward Fabregas, central forward Yaya Toure, right forward Vardy

Left-back Chiellini, central defender Kompani, central defender Vidic, right-back Alves

Goalkeeper Chech

After seeing the starting list of Crystal Palace, Benitez couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

Because Crystal Palace has played many substitutes, it makes him feel that Liverpool has a chance in this game.

The progress of the game is as Benitez judged. After a large number of substitutes came on the court, Crystal Palace could no longer suppress its opponents as strongly as usual.

The two teams attacked and defended each other, and no one could get the advantage for a while.

Chen Ran had been mentally prepared for this situation. He was sitting on the bench watching the game without any worry.

Until the end of the first half, neither team could break through the opponent's goal, and the score on the field remained at 0:0.

During the intermission, Chen Ran first encouraged the players as usual, and then he looked at Dzeko and Valdi.

"Edin, Jamie, how about you two coming down to have a rest in the second half?"

"Okay, boss."

Nodding with satisfaction, Chen Ran turned to look at Messi and Kaka again.

"Leo, Ricardo, you two replace Edin and Jamie in the second half. Leo still plays on the right. Ricardo, you play the front midfielder, Chris serves as a single forward. The team's formation has also changed from 442 to 4231. Do you understand?"

"I understand, boss."

Just as Chen Ran was busy dispatching troops, Benitez did not make any substitution adjustments.

He was very satisfied with the performance of Liverpool players in the first half and asked the players to continue playing as they did in the first half.

However, before the second half of the game began, Benitez felt nervous when he saw the substitution adjustments from Crystal Palace.

He knew very well that Messi and Kaka's appearance meant that Crystal Palace would launch a general attack.

At this time, the second half of the game is about to begin.

It is not a suitable time to change people hastily at this time.

After hesitating for a while, Benitez finally chose to hold on for the time being and continue to trust the players on the field.

As it turns out, the same tactics are carried out by different players, and the effect is indeed very different.

As soon as Messi and Kaka came on the court, Crystal Palace's offensive intensity immediately increased to a higher level.

When the game reached 58 minutes, Messi first easily passed the opponent's left-back Aurerio on the right, and then dribbled the ball into Liverpool's penalty area.

When the situation was not good, central defender Scotter quickly moved over to make up for defense.

Seeing Scotter's actions, Messi did not get into trouble with him.

He pushed the ball horizontally to Kaka in the middle, but he did not stop, but continued to rush towards Liverpool's goal.

Seeing Messi's running position, Kaka, who received the ball, understood it.

He kept stopping the ball, and before Xavi Alonso reached out to steal, he rubbed the ball to Messi who was in the high speed with a pick pass.

Kaka's pass was just right, and the ball just landed on the line Messi was moving forward.

At this time, Scotter had been completely cleaned by Messi and Kaka's two-way and one-way cooperation.

Messi adjusted his pace slightly without waiting for the ball to land, rushed over and volleyed.

"Bang!"

The ball stabbed Liverpool's goal like a sharp sword.

Because the distance is too close and the ball is too fast, goalkeeper Reina had already jumped from him into the Liverpool ball net before he could react.

“GOAL!

!

!”

With the exquisite cooperation of two players who have just replaced it, Crystal Palace led Liverpool 1:0 away.

On the sidelines, Benitez, who saw Messi score a goal, slapped his forehead regretfully. He would have known that he would have made a substitution immediately.

However, it is too late to say anything now.

Only by getting points on the Crystal Palace can Benitez relieve the pressure on him.

Benitez, who is very clear about his goal, decided not to miss the goal and let Liverpool players continue to attack.

And on the side of Crystal Palace, after taking the lead, they entered the rhythm they were used to.

The same thing is said, if you fight against each other, Crystal Palace has never been afraid of anyone.

Chen Ran stopped this time without seeing the opportunity, and he called Southgate to his side again.

"Garrez, you'll inform Tony to warm up now, and then replace Evra with him. Let Tony be the center, and Ronaldo will go back to play the left front guard. Do you understand?"

"I understand, boss."

As soon as Tony came on the court, except for Modric, Crystal Palace basically returned to its main offensive lineup, and the power of the offensive was further strengthened.

When the game reached the 68th minute, Ronaldo on the left used a forced breakthrough to Liverpool right back Aveloa's defense and crossed the bottom.

In the penalty area, Tony jumped high shortly after playing, competing for the ball to land under double teams from Carragher and Scotter.

Not only that, Liverpool goalkeeper Renner also abandoned the goal and hit the ball hard on the top of all the players' heads.

Outside the penalty area, two Liverpool midfielders Xavi, Alonso and Gerrard, who were responsible for protecting their own penalty area, suddenly found that the ball was flying towards Kaka's position. The two people who found that something was wrong rushed towards the landing point of the ball at the same time.

Of course Kaka would not miss such a good opportunity. He also saw the actions of Harvey Alonso and Gerald, knowing that he had no time to adjust.

So, Kaka didn't wait for the ball to land, and directly kicked the ball with his right foot directly on the instep.

"Bang!"

The ball drew a clear parabola and flew towards Liverpool's goal and fell rapidly as it approached the goal.

Reina, who had just attacked, was rushing back desperately. After seeing the ball being kicked back by Kaka, he quickly flew to save it.

However, despite Renner's efforts, he still failed to hit Kaka's fallen leaf shot.

“GOAL!

!
