In another match in the same group, Lyon lost 0-1 at home to Juventus. Currently, Liverpool ranks first in the standings with 9 points from three wins, Juventus is second with 6 points from two wins and one loss, and Lyon is second. They are third with three points after one win and two losses, and Dinamo Zagreb is at the bottom with zero points after losing all three games. Although in theory there is still the possibility of qualifying, in fact the chance is almost zero.
Returning to the domestic league, on October 22, in the 9th round of the Premier League, Liverpool faced West Bromwich Albion at home.
This opponent is currently ranked 13th in the league and has average strength. Although Klopp also rotated two people, he finally won the game easily.
Willard scored another hat-trick and assisted a goal for his teammates. The final score was 5-0, and Liverpool gave their opponents another huge defeat.
Since Willard added the "Shoot" skill to the full value of 100, scoring goals has really become much easier. Any position, any angle, as long as there is a chance, as long as the opponent's goalkeeper has a problem with his position, Willard can shoot directly.
This kind of scoring efficiency is really cool.
Willard's total annual goals have also surpassed Gerd Muller, reaching 88 goals. It seems that Messi's 91 goals for the year will be broken soon, and 100 goals for the year is just around the corner.
Once Willard reaches a record of more than 100 goals in the year, then Willard is likely to win this year's Golden Globe Award!
Even if Cristiano Ronaldo holds the Champions League title last season and the European Cup title in the summer, Willard can compete with him with his brilliant achievements in the Europa League, English League Cup, European Super Cup, America's Cup, Olympic Games and 100 goals in the year. Fan's.
Especially the unprecedented 100 goals in the year, which is an achievement in football history. The Champions League happens every year, but 100 goals in a year is never seen. By then, he will definitely be able to get a lot of votes for Verard. Even if Ronaldo is more famous, more senior, and has wider connections, he may not be able to stop Verard.
This also makes Willard still full of passion for every game.
After all, he hasn't won the Premier League, the Champions League, or the Ballon d'Or yet!
At the same time, also in this round of Premier League matches, Manchester City suffered another draw, and it was tied again at home: they were tied 1-1 by Southampton away from home.
In this way, Liverpool's lead over Manchester City becomes 4 points, which means there is one more game's room for error.
The possibility of winning the first Premier League championship in team history is becoming more and more likely.
Just when everyone was shocked by the efficiency of Willard scoring consecutive goals, often two or three in each game, and talking about Liverpool continuing to expand its points lead over Manchester City, on October 24, "France Football" announced this year's Golden Goal The 30-person candidate list for the award includes Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Aguero, Aubameyang, Bale, Buffon, De Bruyne, Griezmann, Higuain, Ibrahimovic, Inye Star, Lewandowski, Modric, Neymar, Vardy and other this year's most popular superstars were selected.
And Velarde, who has scored 88 goals this year, is naturally selected without any suspense, and is the most popular candidate to win, even compared with Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
His scoring efficiency is really too high and no one can ignore it. Even if some voters don't like him, professional ethics will make them vote for Velarde.
Being selected into the Ballon d'Or shortlist made Velarde obviously in a good mood. Although everyone takes this for granted, in fact, the dust will not settle until the list is actually announced.
Now Willard will continue to work hard and transform himself from a candidate to the final winner.
On October 25, in the English League Cup 1/8 finals, Liverpool faced Tottenham Hotspur at home.
In this game, just like in the 1/16 finals, Liverpool still made substantial rotations. If you can win, win. If you can't win, forget it. Anyway, let the main players rest and prepare for more important games such as the Premier League and Champions League.
Of course, Velarde, who has no worries about his physical fitness, will continue to start.
Facts have proved that as long as Willard is there, no matter who the opponent is, there will be no shortage of goals.
Only 5 minutes into the game, Velarde rushed into the penalty area, received a cross from winger Origi, and headed the ball into the goal with a diving dive.
Liverpool leads 1-0.
In the subsequent games, although Tottenham tried their best to defend Willard, they still could not prevent it. If Liverpool hadn't carried out a large rotation, other players would not be able to provide him with good assists due to insufficient cooperation with Velarde in passing, and Velarde might have staged another massacre.
Even so, Willard also scored twice in this game, and by running and pulling away defensive players, he helped Sturridge score after receiving Wijnaldum's pass in the gap. scored a goal.
In the end, Liverpool defeated Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 at home and advanced to the quarter-finals of the English League Cup this season. Moreover, this was achieved despite Liverpool's substantial rotation. If Liverpool's main force is used, even Tottenham, known as one of the BIG6 in the Premier League, may be beaten by the Red Army in a massacre of more than 5 goals.
After this game, Velarde's total annual goals have reached 90, which is only one goal away from Messi's annual record of 91 goals.
Therefore, when the time came to October 29, when Liverpool's away game against Crystal Palace in the 10th round of the Premier League began, not only the home stands of Crystal Palace were full, but there were also countless fans in front of the TV watching the live broadcast of the game, preparing to watch Villa. Germany tied or even surpassed Messi's annual record of 91 goals.
Crystal Palace is currently ranked in the middle of the pack and is qualified to challenge the away team for victory at home. But this game was against Liverpool, who are at the top of the standings, and Willard has scored a lot of goals in recent games. Crystal Palace did not dare to attack Liverpool.
Even at home, Crystal Palace put on a defensive stance, hoping that a draw would be a victory.
As a result, Crystal Palace's defense only lasted for more than ten minutes before being broken by Liverpool.
However, it was not Willard who opened the scoring, because Willard has been so popular recently, and as long as he scores in this game, he will tie Messi's annual record of 91 goals, so everyone in Crystal Palace is strictly guarding against Willard. Defend, whether he has the ball or not.
This makes it difficult for Willard to get the space and opportunity to shoot, but other Liverpool players have more opportunities.
In the 18th minute, full-back Alberto Moreno dribbled the ball straight in without anyone intercepting him. He reached the frontcourt before being intercepted by the opponent's full-back.
But Moreno did not continue to break through with the ball. Instead, he made a decisive diagonal pass and passed the ball to midfielder Emre Can in the center. Then he bypassed the full-back and moved forward, preparing to go down.
Alberto Moreno's plan was to hit the wall with Emre Can and then pass the ball down. As a result, Emre Can didn't pass the ball back to Moreno at all. Instead, he turned around and made a pick pass to send the ball directly. Click after entering the penalty area.
Mane entered the penalty area from the right wing, squeezed away a Crystal Palace defender who was trying to compete for the top, and hit the goal with a header, slamming the ball into the Crystal Palace gate.
Liverpool became the first to score again, leading Crystal Palace 1-0 away from home.
