955 Unfavorable situation
The Bernabeu is filled with an atmosphere of worry, and anxiety spreads in the stands like a virus, and no Real Madrid fans can get more relaxed.
As the game time passes by minute by minute, the time left for Real Madrid is getting less and less.
In the 86th minute of the game, Real Madrid directly pushed up.
Marcelo assisted to the side of the frontcourt, and finally provided Real Madrid with an offensive effect with an offensive depth to the left.
His cross was sent, and Liverpool thought he could sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and block Qin Xiong.
However, Ramos, who ran into the penalty area, had a chance to head the ball from the back of the goal.
Ag was careless for a moment and was defeated by Ramos to head the ball!
Reiner hurriedly ran towards the back post, and with a sound, Ramos headed the ball down and pushed the ball to the post!
The football rebounded in the small penalty area, and for a while, Liverpool's penalty area was in chaos.
In the chaos, someone pushed the ball with his arch and kicked the ball towards Liverpool's goal. The Liverpool players looked stunned and felt like they were bolt from the blue.
The ball has entered!
"Qin Xiong! Qin Xiong made a shot in the penalty area and sent the ball into Liverpool's goal, and Real Madrid equalized the score! The game has not ended yet, and Liverpool's defense still failed to defend! What a pity!"
When Marcelo made a cross, Qin Xiong was stared to death, but when Ramos headed the ball, he had already started running, getting rid of the three sieges of Mascherano, Carragher and Alonso. Then, after seeing the football rebound, he rushed to make a supplementary shot. Aurerio's flying tackle was slower, and he only slipped the tackle after Qin Xiong shot.
Qin Xiong rushed into the goal and held the ball in his arms and ran towards the midfield.
His face was firm and his eyes were solemn.
Equalifying. This is far from enough.
Liverpool scored two away goals. If the game ended with such a score, the next round would be very difficult, because at that time, the right time, place, people and positions, Real Madrid would not take any share!
Benitez's expression on the sidelines was slightly ferocious, and he was quite gritting his teeth. He was upset about himself!
Originally, he could have beaten Real Madrid beautifully, but his own adjustment mistake gave Real Madrid a chance to equalize the score.
If he did not let the team be conservative, he insisted on the midfield's crazy encirclement tactic. Maybe Liverpool could take advantage of the victory to pursue and expand the results.
After a while, it was not as simple as Liverpool conceding the second goal.
Boske is still in a heavy mood. He doesn't know whether Real Madrid can create a miracle in the last five minutes. The goal in the chaos just now must have luck. From the overall situation, Real Madrid has not found a way to absolutely restrain Liverpool.
Real Madrid fans rekindled their hopes and cheered for the team hard.
Hopefully the team can reverse Liverpool at the last moment.
The game started again, and the Liverpool players played twelve points, which also increased the frequency of fouls and the aggressiveness of pressing.
They will be able to get a draw. They will also be satisfied, which will lay a good foundation for the next round after the war at Anfield.
Real Madrid continued to push forward. However, Liverpool did not panic, but instead hit a counterattack that made Real Madrid terrified in the 88th minute of the game.
Lucas handed the ball to Alonso after successfully double-teaming with Aurerio with Robben in front of the penalty area.
Alonso, who only looked up and didn't choose to stop the ball in front of him, made a shot and passed the ball to the frontcourt.
Torres, who was in front, leaned against Las Diara with his body, seized his position and then turned around in the direction of the football, leaving Las Diara behind him in embarrassment.
Pepe immediately grabbed the ball, while Torres changed the ball and exploded with a strong speed and passed Pepe!
Clean and neat, as fast as lightning.
At this time, only Cannavaro and Marcelo were left on the defense line.
Ramos' assist came to the frontcourt and couldn't come back at all.
Marcelo, who was frightened, gritted his teeth, rushed up and released a fierce shovel at Torres!
He did not shovel the football, but his raised legs hooked to Torres's calf.
Torres fell to the ground.
Marcelo made up his mind to not let Torres continue to move forward. After all, Cannavaro could almost be said to have been crushed by Torres in this game!
While Torres fell to the ground, the referee immediately ran to the scene of the incident, and at the same time, he held the whistle and whistled in his mouth to indicate a foul!
Before the Real Madrid players walked up to plead for Marcelo, the referee took out a red card to Marcelo!
"Red card! Marcelo applied for leaving as a dangerous tackle, and he will miss the second leg. Real Madrid really has no choice this time. Torres has open offensive space. If he continues to dribble and push the offensive, it is difficult to say whether Real Madrid's defense will be ravaged by him!"
Marcelo didn't protest, he tried his best.
But he must also admit that at this level of the game, he is not able to play well in the game, and his contribution to the team is not very outstanding.
Is this red card worth it?
Difficult to measure.
But what is reflected from the side is how afraid Torres makes Real Madrid's defense line!
Boske stood on the sidelines with expressionless expression. Heinze replaced Robben with his defense to keep Real Madrid's defense intact.
He also knew in his heart that the situation was hopeless and Real Madrid was powerless to make the world come true!
Liverpool beat one more man but did not swallow Real Madrid's courage and ambition. The transition from defense to offense is an extreme change. If you are not careful, you will take huge risks. There is no need for Liverpool to take risks.
They steadily consumed the little time left.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, boos sounded again in the Bernabeu stadium.
Fans are unhappy about the team's failure to win Liverpool at home.
"The first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals of this season, Real Madrid played against Liverpool at home. After 90 minutes, the two teams made a 2-2 hand-shaking hand. Liverpool scored two away goals at the Bernabeu, and their performance was obviously better than Real Madrid. If Qin Xiong had not scored the goal in the last moment, Liverpool would have taken away the victory even if he won the game.
I have to say that Benitez's technical and tactical arrangements for this game are very successful. Real Madrid has difficulty in forming a threatening shot in Liverpool's penalty area in the whole game. It is one of the few opportunities to seize it, and another is a supplementary shot in the melee. This is not like Real Madrid, which beat European powerhouses to a loss last season. Bosque should think about the second leg. If Real Madrid continues the performance of this game, I am afraid that there will be no good results at Anfield." (To be continued.)
