In China, CCTV Sports also broadcast this game live. Yesterday, CCTV broadcast live Chelsea's victory over Derby County.
So before the game, host He Wei said: "Tonight's game will determine another place in the semi-finals to face Chelsea.
Apart from injuries, Liverpool's main players will basically be out in this game. From the starting lineup before the game, we can see that Sterling, Coutinho, Lallana and Gerrard will all start the game.
On the other side, Bai Ye, the Chinese player we are paying close attention to at Bournemouth, is also in the starting lineup.
Rogers' formation used by Liverpool in this game is a three-back system, three, four, three, which can maximize Liverpool's offensive advantages.
Bournemouth has a 5-4-1 formation. Except for forward Pittman at the front, everyone else is recycling the defense. This is also foreseeable. Liverpool has the advantage and will definitely play against Bournemouth. Yes, it depends on whether Bournemouth can withstand the pressure. "
Can Bournemouth withstand the pressure?
This is also a concern for many people.
Bai Jianguo, who was far away in Madrid, finished work early and returned home. He turned on the TV early to watch the broadcast of this game. He knew the importance of this game.
In London, England, Pochettino also turned on the TV to watch the game after finishing work. Bournemouth was too far away, and Tottenham had a game in two days. He didn't have time to go there, but he only had time to watch a live broadcast. There are still some.
Pochettino's idea is very simple. If he can see Bai Ye's potential against strong teams in this game, he has already planned to spend all the budget given by Levi, 50 million pounds, on Bai Ye!
But he was also a little entangled in his heart. He not only hoped that Bai Ye would perform well, but also didn't want him to perform well.
Of course, hoping that he will perform well is to prove that he has a good vision. If he does not want to perform well, it is because Pochettino knows that Bai Ye is now widely concerned. Once he has a wonderful performance again, Tottenham will have the pressure to compete. It's going to be huge!
In Munich, Germany, Bayern's current head coach Guardiola was about to check out the information about his next opponent, but suddenly remembered that his younger brother Perrin told him that he must watch an English League Cup game tonight.
Which two teams are they from? Probably Liverpool and a Championship team. Guardiola has many things going on every day, and he doesn’t remember them all that clearly.
But he remembered that what Perlan told him was to pay attention to a player named Bai Ye, who was the player Perlan had just signed some time ago.
Guardiola turned on the TV with the intention of helping his younger brother.
Vibrant pitch.
At this moment, the Bournemouth fans filled the entire stadium with songs and shouts!
Players from both sides stood in the tunnel, waiting to enter.
Liverpool's players looked slightly relaxed. They knew that as long as they performed normally in this game, there would be no surprises.
The faces of the Bournemouth players had a look of fighting to the bitter end. They were the weaker side, and before the game everyone thought they would lose to Liverpool.
But, who doesn’t have an idea in their heart to prove themselves? Who doesn’t want to say “I can do it” to everyone who says no!
As the captain, Bai Ye stood behind the referee and goalkeeper. He had already heard the voices of the fans at the other end of the tunnel.
When the time is up, the referee enters the court.
Bai Ye and others also appeared.
boom!
Boom boom! !
The moment Bai Ye came on the stage, the noise in the stadium was overwhelming, and the fans' noise, shouts, and cheers were mixed together.
Become the most intense opening of the Vitality Stadium at this moment!
This is also one of the very few times in the history of Bournemouth that they have faced an English giant team, and the fans' reaction was very normal.
Liverpool kicks off.
Players from both sides stood in the center circle and waited for the referee to blow the whistle.
Eddie Howe's face on the sidelines had no expression. He was very nervous. Liverpool was the strongest opponent he faced.
Whether Bournemouth can climb this mountain will not only affect the team's advancement in the EFL Cup, but more importantly, it will completely change the Bournemouth team!
Victory can give a team the temperament of a strong team!
Eddie Hao looked at Bai Ye, silently expecting in his heart.
drop!
The game officially begins!
After Liverpool kicked the ball out, they immediately launched an attack from the wing, while Bournemouth recovered from all fronts. Even Pittman at the front also recovered the defense.
Everyone in Bournemouth needs to defend and has defensive tasks, except Bai Ye!
now,
After the game started, Bai Ye couldn't conceal his excitement!
Attributes!
So many attributes!
The strength of Liverpool's players far exceeds those of the English Championship players. In Bai Ye's eyes, many attributes appeared on the field.
Bai Ye hardly needs to defend, he simply goes to pick up the attributes first.
【Speed +5】
[Dribbling +4]
[Defense +7]
[Strength +5]
...
Every attribute Bai Ye picked up was more than before!
Of course he won't waste it!
but,
In the eyes of the outside world, it's hard to know what Bai Ye is doing, because he always appears in inexplicable places.
"What is Bai Ye doing?"
"Why can't I understand his movement at all?"
"There are no other players around him, so why is he running there?"
Some fans raised questions, but those old Bournemouth fans would not have such a problem at all.
Because basically every game, Bai Ye will have this kind of inexplicable movement before the start of the game.
They can only boil it down to the way genius plays and plays.
Bai Ye quickly wiped away all the attributes!
In his heart, he was extremely excited, this time the harvest exploded!
He took a moment to look at his attributes.
[Physical fitness: 85
Speed: 63
Shots: 75
Passes: 100
Dribbling: 61
Defense: 57
Strength: 77]
Attributes have increased significantly!
Bai Ye felt more confident about this game!
When Bai Ye picked up his attributes, the entire situation was very unfavorable to Bournemouth. Liverpool's attacks were repeatedly resolved by Bournemouth players.
The fans' exclamations came one after another.
Because it looks really dangerous! There is a buzz in front of Bournemouth!
Sterling and Coutinho's breakthrough dribbling made the Bournemouth defense very uncomfortable. Fortunately, the players' physical fitness could withstand it in the early stage and they were able to defend in time.
Wow!
Suddenly, the fans screamed again, and Bournemouth once again neutralized the opponent's attack.
And this time the football flew towards Bai Ye!
There was no one around Bai Ye. It was precisely because of his random movement that Henderson, who was specifically defending him, was able to devote himself to the attack without worrying about Bai Ye.
But now it's a dangerous point!
Bai Ye actually didn't expect that the ball could be passed to him. He originally wanted to return to the center as soon as possible, but now his position is more on the right.
But Bai Ye’s ability to adjust is very strong!
The first time, move the ball forward, and then push forward!
Although his current speed is only over 60, his advancement still attracts Liverpool's defensive attention.
Liverpool, who didn't have much defense, suddenly had a certain defensive gap in the middle.
Wilson rushed forward after Baiye got the ball, and Pittman did the same.
They all know that such opportunities are very rare, and they must fight for every opportunity!
Liverpool's players recovered very quickly.
Especially Henderson, he knew that he made a mistake in looking at people, so he rushed towards Bai Ye, trying to stop Bai Ye!
Gerrard and Lucas retreated to the middle, but their speed obviously couldn't keep up with Wilson who was sprinting ahead.
The three central defenders Lovren, Skrtel and Kolo Toure became the last line of defense.
Kolo Toure headed towards the direction of Bai Ye, while Skrtel and Lovren gathered in the middle, trying to prevent Bournemouth's center from reaching Bai Ye.
Bai Ye was not fast during the advancement process, but he had already observed the situation clearly, and passed the ball to the center one step before Henderson caught up!
Wilson was very fast, and Bai Ye's pass just allowed him to get the football before the opponent's central defender could surround him!
However, the opponent's central defender is not a vegetarian. Although there is no encirclement, it does not allow Wilson to get a comfortable space to get the ball. It is difficult for him to advance forward, and it is even more difficult to shoot directly!
"Hey!"
However, Bai Ye's voice suddenly sounded behind him. After passing the ball, Bai Ye immediately cut inside.
Henderson was shaken and followed closely behind. He knew that Bai Ye was a right-footed player and was always observing Bai Ye's steps.
And Henderson has been stuck on Baiye's right side, denying him a comfortable chance to kick the ball with his right foot.
Of course, Wilson also saw Wilson on the right side of Bai Ye, so his first reaction was to pass the ball to Bai Ye's left side.
I want Bai Ye to continue looking for opportunities to organize after getting the ball.
However,
When Bai Ye faced Wilson's pass, he already had an idea in his mind!
Left foot!
Balance on both feet plays a huge role at this moment!
With the blessing of a super long shot, Bai Ye didn't hesitate and volleyed directly with his left foot!
Bang!
The football flew over the heads of Wilson and others into the blind spot of the goal!
Goalkeeper Mignolet didn't expect Bai Ye to shoot!
The ball went in!
1-0!
Bai Ye rushed out of the stadium and celebrated his goal excitedly!
This is balance on both feet!
Henderson, who was defending Bai Ye, looked confused. What was going on? Didn't it mean that Bai Ye didn't know how to use his left foot? How do you hit such a beautiful kick? !
Senseless!
Liverpool's players and coaching staff were stunned.
On the contrary, the Bournemouth fans suddenly burst into cheers! Scored!
They scored at home again!
Still facing the strong enemy Liverpool!
The fans were singing and dancing, extremely excited, and even shouted together——
"This is Bournemouth!
This is the Vitality Stadium!
This is Bai Ye! ! "
