Volume 1: Males Come and Go, People Pay Attention Chapter 108 Merseyside Derby (Third Update, Please Vote for Me)

Two days after Christian came to live in Liverpool, Chen Yingxiong invited all the players on the team and their girlfriends, wives, and children to have a party in his yard. Everyone chatted and played games while eating delicious Italian food.

He also took the opportunity to formally introduce Cabrera to his teammates. The teammates had only known the identity of Chen Yingxiong's girlfriend from the media and had seen photos, but no one had seen the real person. Not even Skrtel has seen it.

After Chen Yingxiong's careful dressing up, Christian Cabrera became the star that shone in the audience that night. Chen Yingxiong's teammates were all staring straight-eyed, and no one knew how many of them would have to bear the jealousy of the guy at home when they went back at night...

Cabrera arrived just in time, because Liverpool will soon face the Merseyside derby with Everton at home.

If Chen Yingxiong's condition is unstable, even if it is a home game, Liverpool may not be able to say that they can definitely win Everton.

But now with Cabrera, Chen Yingxiong no longer has any worries.

It's even better than before. Why? Because Kabu will go to Anfield to watch the game live, which will make Chen Yingxiong's fighting spirit high.

It is said that in ancient times, when our ancestors fought with each other, it might be because of food, or it might be because of giving back the right to mate - that is, for women. This kind of competition keeps their blood flowing and their fighting spirit high, making them particularly powerful and able to fight.

Even after entering a civilized society, it is not uncommon for two men to duel over a woman or for men from two countries to go to war.

It can be seen that women are the source of men's motivation.

This behavior is most obvious in sports arenas - when you are sweating on the court, if there are many women standing around you, including the one you like, will you feel more motivated and fighting spirit? You may also have some super-level performances.

According to Yue, there is another saying - an institution that specializes in collecting semen did an experiment. Through investigation and research, they discovered a very interesting phenomenon. When a male sperm donor is asked to collect sperm, the quality of the sperm extracted from the sperm of a man and a woman is higher than that of a man and a woman. As for why this is the case, experts explain that this is because when the sperm donor sees another man appearing in the video, he will unconsciously develop a sense of crisis and a sense of competition. Men with a sense of competition will ejaculate with less sperm. Will be better

Therefore, competition makes human beings progress, and women often play a very important role in competition. Nowadays, it is often seen that two young people beat each other to death for a woman. In literary works, for a woman, It’s not uncommon for brothers to turn against each other and become enemies.

For women, men can not only die, but also challenge the whole world and change their lives against nature.

Cabrera was watching the battle live, and Chen Yingxiong's status gauge was probably maxed out.

Everton are destined to be something on the coffee table.

Before the game, no one really connected the fate of Everton in this game with the fact that Chen Yingxiong's girlfriend came to Liverpool. Although Cabrera arrived in Liverpool, the next day photos of her and Chen Yingxiong kissing back at the airport had already appeared in many English tabloids.

But everyone thinks that is Chen Yingxiong’s personal matter. What does it have to do with the competition?

The league match on March 13th was a make-up match for the 26th round, so it was the only one. As a micro-competition in the same city, this game has attracted much attention.

Liverpool vs. Everton at home, this is the 217th Westside Derby in history. In the history of the Premier League, Liverpool and Everton have faced each other 39 times and have received 20 red cards. It is the most red card match between the two teams, and it can also be regarded as the most popular derby.

Gerrard and Lucas are still absent from this game due to injuries. But they have Chen Yingxiong and Suarez, which is the magic weapon for Liverpool to defeat the enemy.

Before the game started, Everton fans raised slogans like "Van Persie! Van Persie! Van Persie" in the sky. It seemed that they were cheering for Van Persie, but in fact they were irritating Chen Yingxiong. Van Persie is Chen Yingxiong's opponent in the league's top scorer ranking, and currently maintains a four-goal advantage. Chanting Van Persie's name will irritate Chen Yingxiong, and maybe it will make him lose his cool and become angry, and his performance will be greatly reduced?

But all this is of no use to Chen Yingxiong!

Chen Yingxiong's mind is now filled with the idea of ​​performing well in front of his girlfriend. Unexpectedly, it happened to coincide with the Merseyside Derby. This really killed two birds with one stone. He could express himself in front of his long-lost girlfriend, and he could also defeat his rivals in the same city and win the favor of Liverpool fans.

The game started for thirty minutes, with both sides going back and forth, and it was quite lively. Liverpool's offense at home is very strong, but Everton's away position is also very accurate in guarding and counterattacking.

If you don't go out easily, you must ensure the numerical advantage in the backcourt. Although the scene is ugly, it is safe.

This is a local derby, and the result is above all else. As long as you can win, no matter how you win, you are the winner, and you can laugh at the loser as much as you want.

No one wants to be a loser...

Although Everton is playing away from home, it is still ambitious.

Judging from the odds issued by the betting company before the game, although Liverpool is favored, the advantage is very limited. Although they defeated Cardiff and won the League Cup. But the performance in the last few games is really not flattering. Except for the previous win against Arsenal, the other games were either draws or losses. Starting from the 23rd round of the league, they have only won one game in the five league rounds. This performance can be described as sluggish. Moreover, Liverpool has had many draws at home in the league this season. Facing the menacing Toffees this time, Liverpool can only count on the good performance of Suarez and Chen Yingxiong, the core offensive pair, in order to avoid the misfortune of continuing to lose.

As for Everton, after entering mid-January 2012, they suddenly burst into strong combat effectiveness in the league. Not only did the team achieve an unbeaten record of three wins and four draws in the past seven league rounds, but also won these three games. The opponents for the ball are the league's number one Manchester City, the giant Chelsea and the powerful Tottenham. The victory can be said to be full of gold. It can be seen that they are in good shape now, and Everton's third-line strength is actually not much worse than the home team Liverpool. The only difference is the forward, but they only lack one Chen Yingxiong at the forward. It's just that Chen Yingxiong has changed back to his normal state. Many teams lack... compared to Liverpool.

After this analysis, Everton feels that they are no worse than Liverpool, they are just Chen Yingxiong.

Didn't he also score in the last game against Sunderland? If he is so good, then if the team is not performing well, he can turn the tide.

Although Wenger's Arsenal lost to Liverpool at Anfield, it gave some other Premier League teams such a revelation - perhaps the key to defending Chen Yingxiong is not Chen Yingxiong, but other Liverpool players who contain Liverpool The performance of the whole team is more effective and simpler than creating a single hero alone.

Moreover, they can score goals compared with Liverpool. Liverpool's defense is not very reliable. Agger and Skrtel are tall and have good air defense capabilities, but they are slow to turn around, which becomes their soft assistant. . As long as they are paired with fast and flexible forwards who specialize in playing behind them, I believe they will always achieve something.

Just like Wenger's second half against Liverpool, he arranged for Song to pass through frequently, and it really worked. Van Persie scored the team's second goal. If Dalglish hadn't asked the team to shrink their defense, they would have still conceded goals.

Moyes has the same plan for this game, to play more through balls. The advantage of a through ball is that it can be fatal once it passes through the defense line, but the disadvantage is that the success rate is too low. But Everton is not afraid of a low success rate, because they all shrink their defense, and even if they fail, it will not affect the defensive formation. The through ball is the tactic that has the least damage to the defensive formation, because the players do not need to play in the middle after getting the ball. After various coordination and movements on the field, they can pass the football directly, and the overall formation will not be torn apart due to frequent passing and movement.

For Everton, it doesn't matter if they fail ninety-nine times out of a hundred. As long as they succeed once, they may win the game.

In these thirty minutes, Everton defended very tightly. Although there were not many counterattacks, they were quite threatening. It seems that Liverpool is really unlikely to win at their home court, while Everton has a great hope of not only getting a draw, but also a victory.

But whether they can win or not depends on one person.

How is Chen Yingxiong's status in this game?

He had three shots in the thirty-minute game, two of which were within the goal frame, but were saved by Everton goalkeeper Howard.

The performance is normal, I can’t say it’s bad, but I can’t say it’s great either.

Did Cabrera not work?

During the TV broadcast of the game, they also took the time to cut a shot from the stands. Cabrera was sitting in the VIP box, watching the game intently.

This shot also excited many male fans, who were shocked by Cabrera's temperament and eyebrows.

The commentators also began to tease Chen Yingxiong's girlfriend: "I heard that the relationship between the two of them was that of a bodyguard and a protected person...",

"Yes, that's right. When the hero first arrived in Naples, he angered the Naples fans, so his agent Dracula found him a bodyguard... and just like that, they lived under the same roof. Three years ago..., I really think they may have been in a relationship for a long time, but it has never been exposed...",

"So, the hero's ability to pick up girls is really extraordinary, hahaha!"

The commentators and commentators were happily gossiping about the stories of Chen Yingxiong and Cabrera, and for a moment they forgot to understand what was going on in the commentary competition. All I saw was that on the pitch, Liverpool resumed their attack. Because Everton recovered a lot, Liverpool did not directly pass the long ball to Chen Yingxiong, but sent the football to the front layer by layer. In the end, it was a positional battle around Everton's penalty area, moving back and forth, looking for opportunities.

But this time Chen Yingxiong didn't wait in the penalty area, he pulled out again.

Today, Chen Yingxiong has many scoring weapons, so he has many options. He can wait in the penalty area for his teammates to send the football to him from the air, and then header the ball. He can also be outside from the beginning, receive the pass from his teammates and then shoot from long range. He can also run out of the penalty area and post up.

From his movement, opponents can easily guess what he is going to do, but just because you guess it doesn't mean you can defend against it.

This is what makes Chen Yingxiong scary.

For example, now, after he pulls out, Everton's defenders all know that he is going to get the ball with his back, but unless you can defend forward, you can steal the ball first when the opponent passes the football to Chen Yingxiong. , otherwise it will be difficult to fight. Moreover, the forward defense also bears such risks - you go up, but Chen Yingxiong steps sideways and passes the football. At the same time, he also gets you stuck behind him and turns around and enters the penalty area. What should he do?

Before Everton's defender could think about what to do, the football had already been passed.

"The hero received the football, and now his back is facing the direction of attack. Everton defenders are suddenly facing a powerful enemy!" (To be continued.)
