Chapter 45 This is the Merseyside Derby

"Eat shit! You red clowns!!"

Everton fans wearing blue jerseys stood in the stands, leaned down, and cursed at the Liverpool players on the stadium with their middle fingers.

Such scolding resounded throughout the sky and became the only voice at Goodison Park Stadium.

The one who gave their shouting and scolding was the electronic scoreboard on the court, which showed the score - 2:0. International practice, the home team is in front and the visiting team is in the back.

"This is the Merseyside Derby!" the commentator shouted excitedly. "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Merseyside Derby! Before the game, everyone thought that winning the game would be no problem. Liverpool was behind the home team Everton with a score of 0:2! Distin just scored the second goal for the team with a corner kick!"

Everton centre-back Distin is surrounded by teammates, who are celebrating the goal.

The dejected Liverpool players were the ones who gave them a back view.

After forty minutes in the first half, Liverpool missed a single goal, but Everton, whom they looked down upon before the game, scored two goals.

This made Liverpool all the people feel very upset.

Martin O'Neal even kicked a bottle of water off the sidelines. He had reason to be angry because he repeatedly reminded him not to underestimate the enemy before the game... What the result is!

If this weren’t the enemy, there wouldn’t be any underestimation!

"In the first half of this game, Liverpool players performed very badly, especially their defense, which allowed the opponent to score two goals so lightly!"

"Liverpool was powerless in the first half, neither Hero nor Suarez were able to score. Chen Yingxiong, who was in good shape before, seemed to have forgotten to put on shooting boots in this game."

The TV broadcast also gave Chen Yingxiong a close-up shot.

In the camera, Chen Yingxiong frowned and looked at the celebrating Everton player.

"Since the beginning of the new season, Liverpool has performed well, but for them, it's a little smoother... Now they have to pay the price for their underestimation!"

※※※

Liverpool did not score until the end of the first half.

Everyone walked back to the more clothes room with their heads down. They knew that during the halftime, it was not the smile and praise of the head coach, but a storm!

They guessed it right.

Martin O'Neal scolded Liverpool players in halftime.

Including captains like Chen Yingxiong and Gerald, but his tone was slightly eased when he scolded Gerald and Chen Yingxiong.

But that kind of sternness is still something that everyone can feel.

"I won't make any adjustments in the second half!" Martin O'Neal said at the end. "My tactics are not a problem. If you lose the game, it's because you underestimate the enemy! As long as you can adjust your mentality, equalizing the score is not a problem, even if you win this game, it is not impossible! But if you still don't change this mentality of underestimating the enemy, you can wait to lose in this game! Lose to the opponent in the Merseyside Derby!"

After scolding, O'Neal turned around and left the new clothes room. At this time, five minutes had passed during the half-time break, and there were still ten minutes left before the start of the second half.

Usually at this time, O'Neal would definitely talk about the team's performance in the first half, and then talk about how the team should do it in the second half...

This time, O'Neal left so easily, which shows that he is really angry.

In fact, after just arrived at the team, O'Neal gave the players the impression of being a serious, but elegant head coach, rarely losing his temper and wearing glasses, he also looks very well-educated.

Being able to stimulate Martin O'Neal so angry, it can be seen that Liverpool's performance in the first half was indeed very bad...

The head coach has left, but the halftime break is not over yet. What are you going to do next?

A group of people looked at each other.

At this time, Gerald stood up.

"I apologize to everyone!" Gerald said the first sentence, and he raised his arms. "We did underestimate the opponent in this game, and I, including me, did not take our opponent seriously... This is a serious mistake, and now we are punished. I don't want to lose to our opponents away. The Merseyside derby has special meaning for me. Every season, Liverpool has two opponents that cannot be lost no matter what. One is Everton and the other is Manchester United! So in the second half, I hope everyone can play with me. There are still 45 minutes left in the game and there is still a lot of time. Although we are two goals behind, I believe this is not a problem at all!"

"Yes, what's the big deal about falling behind two balls!" Chen Yingxiong also stood up and waved his fists. "Everton is not a very powerful team. Forty-five minutes is enough for us to win them!"

"Now let's discuss how to play in the second half..." Gerald continued.

※※※

As the second half began, Everton's players returned to the court from the more clothes room, with each face showing a clear look of joy.

During the halftime break, they received praise from head coach Moyes. Before the game, Moyes told them that the whole Liverpool team looked down on them because Liverpool performed so badly last season and was able to beat us twice. This season they will definitely take doubles for granted.

He successfully aroused the fighting spirit of Everton players, and in the first half he attacked Liverpool and caught Liverpool off guard!

We took the advantage of two goals in the first half, so what if there is still half game? We will definitely win!

So Everton's players are so happy.

When they were on the court, none of the Liverpool players had appeared yet.

Everton players thought that Liverpool players must have been scolded by the head coach for ten minutes, and now they are hurrying to arrange tactics and arrange how to beat us in the second half... It's so pitiful!

Huh?

The proud Everton player suddenly found Liverpool's head coach Martin O'Neal and other members of the coaching staff were sitting in the visiting team's coaching bench.

The head coaches aren't in the new clothes room? What are the players in the Rich Floods doing?

Moyes followed the players to the sidelines and he also saw Liverpool's head coach Martin O'Neal, which was a little surprised.

He thought O'Neal would nervously arrange the second half tactics in the more clothes room and try to counterattack in the second half.

But judging from this situation, O'Neal doesn't seem to take the situation of falling behind by two goals to heart?

That's wrong!

When Liverpool concedes the ball in the first half, he saw O'Neal kicking the Aquarius with his own eyes. Does this seem like a performance that doesn't care?

But if you care, why didn’t he be in the more clothes room during the halftime, but in the coaching seat?

Like his own players, Moyes was puzzled by O'Neal's approach.

As time goes by, this doubt becomes even heavier.

Because the second half is about to begin, but there is still no movement on Liverpool!

No Liverpool player has come out of the more clothes room, even the substitute.

※※※

As the second half approached, Everton fans were singing in the stands to cheer for Everton, while trying to put pressure on Liverpool fans and the players who were about to play.

However, the halftime break was getting less and less, and Liverpool's players still didn't make any of them, and the fans' singing became less and less.

In the end, it simply disappeared because everyone found it strange.

What's going on with Liverpool?

Everyone turned their attention to Liverpool's coaching bench.

Maybe Martin O'Neal knows something?

But they guessed wrongly, and Martin O'Neal didn't know what happened. But he was calm and he vaguely guessed something. Anyway, what those bastards did had nothing to do with him. In the second half of this game, he planned to not even leave the coach's seat.

So what are the players of Liverpool doing?

※※※

They were chatting in the more clothes room...

Gerald proposed to discuss how to play in the second half, and everyone started to discuss it. But in fact, as Martin O'Neal said, the head coach's tactics are fine, but the problem is the attitude of the players.

Since the attitude is correct, there are actually very few things to discuss.

So everyone finished talking soon.

Next, we were about to make an appearance, but at this time everyone was stopped by Chen Yingxiong.

"Don't worry, guys. I'll tell you a story..."

Then Chen Yingxiong told everyone the story of "making a big move".

"So, Everton led us two goals in the first half, and their morale was in full swing. I think we would encounter their strong stubborn obstacles in the second half. So we have to find ways to consume their fighting spirit and morale. I think we can postpone the playing time like in the story. Let them quickly consume their morale while waiting. By then, their spirits will be greatly reduced and they will not be able to pose a threat to us! And what about us? We can kill them in one go!"

After hearing Chen Yingxiong's words, Gerald's eyes lit up.

"That's right! The hero is right. We postpone the appearance and let them wait outside!"

Suarez also laughed: "Let them out and then we'll chat here. Hero, you're so bad, haha!"

So in this way, everyone listened to music, chatted, and even closed their eyes and fell asleep.

It was not until the referee of the game that he found that Liverpool had not yet played. After waiting for a minute, there was still no one, so he came to him and reminded them that it was time to play.

In this way, Liverpool players walked out of the clothes room and reappeared on the court in groups of three or five.

The second half can finally start!
