Seven hundred and eighty-three, the first time
first
Anfield stadium completely turned into a sea of red.
As a visiting team, the Red Rebels had to wear white, green and gold striped jerseys for this game.
The Red Rebels' jersey sales are very large. Every season, Adidas will specially design three systems of jerseys for the Red Rebels, namely the home team jersey with red, green and gold lines, the visiting team jersey with white, green and gold lines, and the black third jersey. .
The first two jerseys are used more often, and the third jersey is basically not used at all.
The biggest sales volume is unintentionally the red, green and gold striped jerseys, but the sales volume of the white visiting team jerseys is also not small. After all, the white color is more popular, and green, gold and other colors are also more conspicuous.
This season's jersey was personally designed by the Red Rebels. It takes the dazzling three-dimensional Red Rebel emblem on the chest as the core and lightly outlines a dark texture. It is not obvious, but it is The dark flower design makes people feel bright, a bit like the sun blooming with rays of light.
The neckline design has always been the focus of a jersey. The collar of this season’s Red Rebels jersey is somewhat similar to the traditional Chinese antique jersey style, with a slanted lapel design. The home team’s red jersey is white on the left and red on the right, and the away team’s white jersey is Red on the left and white on the right, just the opposite.
The two sides of the collar connect the shoulders to the upper arms, and still use the traditional three-line design of the Red Rebels. The two front and back are gold, and the one in the middle is green. There are six lines on the left and right, extending directly to the arms, with the ends slightly modified to look like arrows. The shape shows the strength, speed and vulnerability of the Red Rebel Army.
Directly below the arrow is the logo of UNICEF, which cooperates with the Red Rebels, as well as their abbreviations. This is an agreement between the Red Rebels and UNICEF. In addition to advertising for them on the jersey for free, every When a jersey is sold, a portion of the money must be donated to charity.
On the right chest is the Adidas logo, which is symmetrical to the Red Rebels' team emblem, but slightly smaller to show the sponsor's respect for the Red Rebels. Below the two logos is the main sponsor Vodafone. symbols of.
The shorts are also designed with white lines. The team's logo is arranged in the front of the shorts, and there are three green and gold lines on each side extending directly to the ends. They also adopt an arrow-shaped end design, full of a sense of power.
The collar of the socks is also designed with three green and gold circular stripes, with the abbreviations of the Red Rebels team name underneath.
The cuffs of the top and the ends of the shorts are designed with golden ring stripes, surrounding the entire jersey, and the armpits are also designed with U-shaped golden stripes.
This makes the entire white jersey shine brightly and stand out under the light.
The Red Rebels' jersey design has always adhered to the will of green and gold lines. No matter how the design changes, no matter how much they have achieved, their design of green and gold lines has always remained the same. This is why the Red Rebels are most praised for their jerseys. s reason.
At present, the Ministry of Commerce of the Red Rebels has begun to cooperate with Adidas to create a new sports brand. The logo is made of three arrows pointing upward. The two arrows on both sides are gold, and the arrow in between is green. Design, this is also because the three-arrow texture of the Red Rebels has almost become the most conspicuous symbol for fans around the world to identify the Red Rebels jerseys.
In the world, only the jerseys of the Red Rebels will adopt this design, especially in terms of color matching, which is consistent from beginning to end. The first sponsor to see the strong appeal of the Red Rebels was Nike, who hoped to use this method , with higher sponsorship fees, poached the Red Rebels from Adidas to theirs.
However, after clever maneuvers by the Ministry of Commerce, Adidas came from behind and won this cooperation plan by virtue of offering more generous conditions than Nike and years of cooperation with the Red Rebels. Among them, many women's clothing will be invited to Iraq. The participation of Red Rebel wives such as Va. Snow and Victoria in the design is also a highlight.

When the players of the Red Rebels stepped into the Anfield Stadium, the entire Anfield stadium exploded. Every Liverpool fan in the stands cheered for the team and booed the Red Rebels, hoping to use this wave of enthusiasm. The momentum completely suppressed the Red Rebels.
Benitez stood in front of the home team's coaching bench, staring at Mourinho's lineup, with a sneer on his lips.
Cech, Fabio, Terry, Vidic, Micah Richards, Rodwell, Fabregas, Wilshere, Nymar, Messi, Ozil, the Red Rebels This game is really short of troops. The assistant on the side also looked extremely excited.
The most frightening thing about the Red Rebels is their Magic Quartet, but now only Messi is among the four players, while Mourinho has arranged three defensive players on the court. This should be regarded as It is rare that the Red Rebels are more conservative. Of course, no one knows how powerful the double forward combination of Cesc Fabregas and Wilshere can be.
Rafa, you guessed it right. He is trying to spread suspicion. At least one of the four magic quartets will be there. You are right, the assistant said with a somewhat convinced smile.
This kind of psychological tactic before the game is very taxing. Mourinho said that he can't play any one, but Benitez feels that he can at least play one, because only in this way can the deterrence of the frontcourt be guaranteed.
Liverpool's lineup has also undergone certain changes. The goalkeeper is Reina, and the defense from left to right is Insua, Carragher, Skrtel, Glen Johnson; Lucas and Paulson play Double defensive midfielder, Babel, Gerrard and Kuyt play in the frontcourt, and Torres plays the lone forward.
Benitez has always adhered to his tactical philosophy. Even against the Red Rebels, he will not change his stubbornness. However, he gave up Aimar and chose Gerrard. It seems that he has strengthened his previous defensive intentions.
Liverpool was better in this game, at least they were not as conservative as Manchester United.
If you just look at the formation, the Red Rebels seem to have given up on their usual formation. The current position seems to be a bit similar to 4, and Rodwell serves as a deep-lying midfielder, focusing on defense. Could it be that he Do you want to keep a draw in the away game?
Liverpool is not a fuel-saving lamp. When the Red Rebels are short of major generals, it is not unacceptable to reuse a group of young players and maintain a draw in the away game. What's more, from the perspective of league competition, the Red Rebels tied with Liverpool in an away game. , which in itself is a profit, you know, Liverpool is also a strong contender for the British championship.
Who knows, Benitez obviously doesn't see it that way.
You know? When a team's philosophy has been implemented into its soul, the formation has no effect on them. They can put out various tactical formations anytime and anywhere on the court. There is no need to readapt at all because they all know their responsibilities and tasks clearly.
Having said this, Benitez smiled enviously and said: The Red Rebels are such a team.
The assistant almost dropped his glasses. He did not expect that the arrogant Benitez would sometimes admire others, and what he admired was the Red Rebels. You know, the relationship between Liverpool and the Red Rebels is also not very harmonious. .
But what you said makes sense. The player Rodwell may be very talented, but he is still young. Whether he can withstand the pressure in such a crucial game is a big test for him. Terry and Wei Dicky's turn speed is slow. As long as Rodwell is not entangled, the Red Rebels' defensive system will no longer be unbreakable.
The assistant was puzzled as he listened to Benitez's roundabout words and couldn't help but ask: Then what do you mean...
Benitez couldn't help but smile and said, After the opening, we attacked like crazy, focusing on attacking behind the two defenders.
After saying that, Benitez looked at Mourinho, who was also walking out of the coaching bench and waiting for the kick-off not far away. He couldn't help but feel the desire to compare with him.
Jose Mourinho, I would like to have a try with you to see who is the real winner of this game.

Rodwell guarded his area and position tightly, and he felt a little nervous.
If, at his age, he appears on such an occasion and wants to say he is not nervous, he can really only be called a monster.
8 years old, a third-year student in England, he has a lot of experience, but in a direct game against a championship rival like Liverpool, especially in an away game, this is really the first time for Rodwell.
You have a very heavy task in this game, Jack. I don't regard you as an 8-year-old rookie. It has been two seasons since I promoted you to the first team, and you have accumulated a lot of English skills. I can’t allow a player like this to still consider himself a rookie given the chance to play.”
Although the defense in this game depends on Terry and Vidic, in fact, in my tactical defense system, the most important thing is you, Gerrard's back-row insertion, Torres' anti-offside, these are all It’s up to you”
You should keep a distance from the two defenders on the court and closely protect the back line. Once the opponent hits behind, you should be able to return to the penalty area in the shortest possible time to resolve the crisis.
Every player grows from a rookie to a first-class star. Some of this transformation process relies on long-term experience accumulation, but some rely on one opportunity and then become a blockbuster. I don't know which one you are, but I am very Clear, Jack, this is an opportunity. I have sent it to you. Whether you can seize it or not depends on you.
Don't let me down, Jack.
In his mind, recalling what Mourinho said to him in the locker room, Rodwell felt an infinite fighting spirit surge in his heart, as if there was a boiling blood running straight from the soles of his feet to his forehead. , igniting every cell in the body.
After the opening, Liverpool attacked very hard. They actively took advantage of their home court advantage and took the lead in attacking.
The offensive capabilities of the Red Army are not simple, but the Red Rebels are not a fuel-saving lamp. Although the defense is short of major generals, under Mourinho's rigorous defensive system, Fabio and Micah Richard Zi was restricted in attack and couldn't advance forward at least for a while in the opening period, so the Red Rebels' defense looked solid.
Liverpool seems to want to look for opportunities more on the wing after the opening, but Kuyt on the right is not good at passing and breaking through. Coupled with Fabio's steady and steady style, Kuyt doesn't have many opportunities on the left. Babel is very fast and has good passing ability, but when faced with the perverted Micah Richards, there is almost nothing he can do.
Just after Andy Gray finished speaking, Babel was in a direct conversation and was slightly touched by Micah Richards with his body. He was immediately squeezed and the ball was a little too big. Richards made a tackle, but the ball fell to Insua behind him.
The Argentinian left back is characterized by his long-distance running ability. Although he is not fast enough, he has a good pass. After stopping the ball, he directly sent the ball into the penalty area.
The ball was passed well, but Terry reacted quickly enough and retreated in advance. Before Torres, he headed the ball to clear Insua's pass. However, because it came in a hurry, the clearance was not strong and the ball fell to At the feet of Gerrard outside the penalty area.
What the Liverpool team is best at is this kind of long-range shot outside the penalty area. When he sees him taking action, he will shoot angrily.
But at this moment, I saw a figure branching out from the side, with both feet on the shovel. Gerrard's shot hit his feet. When he entered the penalty area, Vidic was followed. Bigfoot comes to the rescue.
Well done, Jack Terry, wearing the captain's armband, smiled and encouraged his junior brother.
Although without Rodwell, Gerrard's long-range shot may not be able to go in, but being able to block it like this is naturally more reassuring.
The passivity after the opening made the Red Rebels' defense somewhat difficult, and Liverpool's offensive came again.
This time Liverpool was smart and passed the ball to the right first, but Lucas immediately stepped in and the ball quickly came to the Brazilian's feet.
Lucas being able to win the Brazilian Footballer of the Year as a defensive midfielder is proof of his strength, so when he got the ball, Fabregas immediately followed him, but Lucas ducked out of the way. Although he didn't pass anyone, But he sent the ball directly forward.
This kick was delivered very cleverly. Gerrard used his body to suppress Rodwell at the front of the penalty area. After receiving the ball, he retreated a little and turned around to pass behind him.
The ball passed by Rodwell, and then passed between the defensive areas of Terry and Vidic. Then Torres, who had been standing almost parallel to the two defenders just now, suddenly stepped forward and chased after him. In the blink of an eye, he was in restricted area.
Terry and Vidic both have to turn, but they are strong and tall, with strong muscles and excellent confrontation ability. However, the disadvantage brought by these advantages is that their turning speed is slow. Especially at this moment, the characteristic of slow turning speed has been criticized. Exposed to the fullest.
Just when Terry and Vidic were anxious to turn around, and even wanted to use foul tactics to prevent Torres from shooting in the penalty area, a figure passed them, very fast, with excellent explosive power, almost In the next second, he was level with Torres.
But his foot blocked the ball fired by Torres.
