Chapter 344: You Will Suffer for Your Own Actions

The 35th round of the 2017-2018 Premier League season has ended, and the mainstream media in Europe is bound to be crazy. Liverpool has 32 wins, 2 draws and 98 points with one game less, breaking Mourinho's 95-point league championship record set by Chelsea in the 2004-2005 season.

Liverpool still has the last four league games, and it is very likely to become the fourth team to break 100 points in the league after Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus, and even have a chance to surpass Juventus's 102 points in the 2013-2014 season. The record of points in the top five European leagues.

Because Chelsea is slightly stronger than Liverpool's remaining four league opponents, Stoke City, Watford and Brighton are all relatively easy to deal with.

Except for Stoke City, which has relegation pressure, Brighton and Watford have already successfully landed, which means that it will not bring too much trouble to Liverpool's record.

Only two wins are needed for Liverpool to break Juventus' record of points in the top five European leagues.

Media fans from China focus on Li Qing, the biggest contributor. Liverpool's ability to create two records in the Premier League is directly related to the Chinese player Li Qing.

He contributed 68 goals and 26 assists in Liverpool's past 34 league games!

One person contributed 94 goals in 34 league games!

How many goals did Liverpool score in 34 league games?

117 goals!

That is to say, Li Qing contributed 80.3% of the goals.

Without Li Qing, it would be unrealistic for Liverpool to score 24 goals less in a season. It can only be said that the 94 goals contributed by Li Qing are halved, that is, 47 goals, plus the other 24 goals that have nothing to do with Li Qing, that is, 71 goals, which is 7 goals less than the total number of goals last season.

The most intuitive comparison is that the second-placed Manchester City has only scored 98 goals in 35 league games so far, which means that Li Qing's personal contribution to goals is comparable to that of the entire Manchester City team.

In addition, perhaps half of the 24 goals that have nothing to do with Li Qing are indirectly related to Li Qing.

Why?

Many of Liverpool's attacks were won by Li Qing's long passes, and there are no special statistics for planning attacks and indirect assists, otherwise... Li Qing's direct contribution rate would be higher!

The media from Catalonia, Spain, are very fortunate that if Li Qing had not been suspended in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, then... Barcelona would have great difficulty in advancing to the Champions League final this season.

Liverpool, which created the longest cross-season unbeaten run in the Premier League, was not affected by media reports, or in other words, there was still the FA Cup semi-final, which was of great importance, in front of them. However, considering that the Champions League semi-final was just four days after the end of the FA Cup semi-final, it was equivalent to saying that Liverpool did not have much time to prepare for the home game against Barcelona.

Liverpool's FA Cup semi-final opponent was not as lucky as the League Cup. The opponent was the Premier League giant Chelsea.

Although the opponent was very tricky, Chelsea also had to take into account the domestic league. They are currently ranked fifth in the league, only three points away from Tottenham, who is fourth in the league. There is a certain hope to reverse Tottenham and get fourth in the league, so as to participate in the qualifying round of the Champions League next season.

The FA Cup champion can only participate in the Europa League finals. Chelsea knows which is more important.

Of course, with the champion in front, no one will give in.

It can only be said that both teams will have some reservations in the FA Cup semi-finals, especially Liverpool, who need to take into account the important first leg of the Champions League semi-finals against Barcelona at home.

Because Li Qing received a red card in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals and was automatically suspended in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Liverpool will start in the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea at home, and it is very likely that he will play the whole game.

Chelsea coach Conte is most afraid of Li Qing, even if Liverpool's home lineup is not the strongest lineup.

In Conte's view, Liverpool with Li Qing is the strongest Liverpool.

In the early weekend, that is, at 1 pm on Saturday, Liverpool will face Chelsea at Anfield.

Chelsea did not line up the imagined starting lineup. The goalkeeper is Caballero, defenders Rudiger, Gary Cahill and Azpilicueta, midfielders Emerson, Kante, Fabregas and Moses, forwards William, Giroud and Hazard.

Liverpool's goalkeeper is Mignolet, defenders are Moreno, Matip, Klavan and Joe Gomez, midfielders are Milner, Emre Can and Lallana, and forwards are Woodburn, Firmino and Li Qing.

Chelsea has lost all the games at Anfield in the past two seasons. Conte, who has always been arrogant, was very low-key in this game. The game tactics were mainly defensive counterattacks. Unfortunately, the counterattacks have not been played yet, and the defense has lost the ball first.

Li Qing, who is called the killer of the giants by the media, helped Liverpool open the record in the twelfth minute. He scored a long shot from the top of the penalty area.

Chelsea, who lost the ball first, consciously strengthened the offense in the subsequent games, but the Liverpool players who played as substitutes performed very well under the leadership of Li Qing, and played at their best level of the season. They did not give any chance to the Chelsea offensive line led by Hazard and William.

If there is no problem with the defense, the offensive end can participate in the offense with confidence.

In the 34th minute, Li Qing made a sudden long pass after breaking through on the right and found the left-back Moreno who was running at high speed on the left. The latter swept the ball directly into the penalty area without stopping. Firmino who was following up in the middle of the penalty area swept the ball into the penalty area.

Before the end of the first half, Hazard helped Chelsea win a penalty with his superb personal ability and scored it himself.

However, amid the cheers of 50,000 Liverpool fans at home, the restricted Li Qing broke out again. In the second minute of the second half, he helped the home team surpass the score again through a direct free kick.

Barcelona coach Valdes, who was sitting in the audience at Anfield, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Li Qing was suspended in the first leg, otherwise he really didn't know what to do in the second leg home game.

With less and less time, Chelsea, who were behind in the score, naturally had to strengthen their offense.

So, it was equivalent to giving Li Qing another chance. His iconic long-distance run scored another goal, contributing his third goal of the game. The score on the scoreboard changed from 3:1 to 4:1, and this score did not change until the end of the game. The home team Liverpool advanced to the FA Cup final for two consecutive seasons.

At the end of the game, the live director gave Chelsea coach Conte a close-up shot of his face. The second place in the league last season became the fifth place in the league this season, largely due to his bad temper. The public conflict led to chaos in the locker room. Chelsea's failure to qualify for the FA Cup final was also expected by the media and fans.

If Conte could handle his relationship with the meritorious striker Diego Costa gently at the beginning of the season, the team's locker room would definitely not be in chaos, and it might even form a three-way competition with Liverpool and Manchester City.

In Chinese, it is said that you will suffer the consequences if you do evil!
