Chapter 243 Advance to Top 4

Chapter 243 Advance to the Final Four

After defeating Liverpool at home, Notts County played another League One away game on the weekend, and the players who started in this league may miss the second round of the clash with Liverpool in the middle of next week.

Although the media were reminiscing about the excitement of the first round and predicting the second round, no one paid attention to the League One game in Notts County.

But for Notts County fans, this game is extremely important.

As long as they win this game, Notts County will lock the top two in the league seven rounds in advance and get a place to directly upgrade to the Premier League.

So nearly 5000 fans followed the team to the away game, directly turning the opponent's home court into Notts County's home court.

The opponent is very troublesome. It was originally an irrelevant league game, but now it has become like this. Looking at the fans in the stands wearing Notts County zebra jerseys, it seems to be an away game.

No way, who told Notts County to be too strong in the League One!

Well, don't come back next season!

League One really can't stand you being so blah blah!

The opponent's non-resistance policy allowed Notts County to easily win the game even if they sent a third-line lineup, and locked the promotion spot seven rounds in advance.

After the game, the Notts County fans did not leave the field, and sang in the opponent's stands to celebrate the team's promotion. The excitement may not even match the pursuit of the goddess.

You know, the last time Notts County stayed in the top league was 20 years ago, which spanned a whole generation.

In the end, the staff of the rival club couldn't take it anymore and told the stadium to drive people out, otherwise Notts County could have a celebration here!

Many media and fans don't think there is anything to celebrate about this incident. After all, Notts County has always had a huge lead in the league. Upgrade is only a matter of time, and they should have been prepared long ago.

But you must know that celebrating the upgrade is one aspect. In addition, after ensuring the upgrade, Notts County can turn its attention to the UEFA Cup and the FA Cup without any worries. These two events will become the top priority.

After this league game, Notts County did not return to Notts County at all, but went directly to Liverpool to prepare for the second round of the game.

The score in the first round is actually not safe, especially when facing Liverpool, as long as the Red Army can beat Notts County 2:0 at Anfield, Notts County will have to go home directly.

The number of fans that Anfield can accommodate is about 45000. Although it is not as good as Manchester United and other teams, the horror atmosphere of Anfield is among the best in England. Liverpool's combat effectiveness at Anfield must not be underestimated.

Even a little exaggerated and joking, in the Anfield game, Liverpool can have its own 1:0 halo.

So Notts County is extremely cautious.

They couldn't help but be careless. Liverpool's two goals in the second half of the first round were like sharp knives piercing their hearts, and they hurt from time to time. This feeling is really too bad.

Moreover, Javier Mascherano and Meirelles, who made mistakes in the first game, have been punished and suspended by Loew, and they will not be able to play in this game. Such a lesson is not painful.

Even if the team loses and is eliminated, Love is absolutely not used to problems.

Liverpool's coach kept showing his presence before the game, frequently saying that Notts County would definitely make mistakes at Anfield, and the Red Army must be promoted in the end, and the fans of the Red Army also supported Houllier one after another, full of enthusiasm for the team confidence.

Although this world night in Istanbul has not yet happened, Liverpool has its own pride in the giants. Even if they fall behind in the away game, they must fight back at home. They must use their own actions to defend the glory of the giants.

Compared with Liverpool's high profile, Notts County is just training in Liverpool step by step, as if they are not the ones who are about to play a key game.

In Loew's view, there is really no need to talk about it at this time. With that effort and energy, it is better to perfect the tactical routine.

After the start of the game at Anfield, the terror of the Red Army fans brought some trouble to Notts County, but after gradually adapting to this environment, Notts County's state gradually began to improve.

Notts County did not choose a conservative strategy in this game. The strategy Loew arranged was to score goals as soon as possible. As long as Notts County scored one, then Liverpool would have to score three to eliminate Notts County. To do this A little, I'm afraid it's not easy.

Liverpool, who lost in the first round, was even more unreasonable and conservative. The score was still behind at their home court. Don't attack and wait to die!

Thus, the confrontational battle appeared again.

And the process of this game is like this-Liverpool scored one, Notts County pulled one back; Liverpool scored another, Notts County pulled one back...

In the end, Notts County tied the score three times in a row in the away game, tied the mighty Liverpool with a score of 3:3, eliminated their opponents and advanced to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup.

Compared with the first round, Notts County scored one goal less and Liverpool scored one more goal. It seems that this is the embodiment of the true strength of both sides. However, Liverpool was still eliminated.

After the game, there were no reporters to tease Houllier anymore, because after the press conference, gossip had spread that Houllier would be fired soon.

Under his guidance, Liverpool lost the competitiveness of the Premier League title early this season. They were eliminated in the Champions League group stage. After entering the UEFA Cup, they were blocked by Notts County from the semi-finals.

But David knows that Liverpool will soon usher in a relatively correct coach, Rafael Benister.

Although Beitu did not bring Liverpool a Premier League championship trophy in his previous life, he brought the Big Ears Cup back to Liverpool in the 04-05 season.

With Liverpool's lineup, Beitu's achievements can already be called great.

But David is reborn, and Notts County will enter the Premier League next season, so Liverpool may not have so many opportunities.

In any case, Notts County eliminated Liverpool, so there are only five important games left in this season.

The FA Cup semi-final and final, the UEFA Cup two-leg semi-final and final, as long as Notts County waded through these five games, then this season is a perfect season for Notts County, and they have completed all their goals .

However, before creating miracles, Notts County still needs a relatively important league game.

In the 40th round, against Gillingham at home, if Notts County wins the game, then Notts County will win the League One Championship six rounds ahead of schedule.
