Chapter 600 Crazy Liverpool, even crazier Manchester City

Although the two teams did not score many goals in the first half, it did not affect the enjoyment of the game at all.

This game undoubtedly represents the highest level of the Premier League in recent years. The two teams switched offense and defense very quickly, making the game particularly exciting. The fans who came to the scene were so excited to watch it that they just wished they could enjoy such excitement every day. Contest.

During the halftime break, fans in the stands and at home watching the live broadcast of the game were all excited and engaged in heated discussions with their friends, offline or online.

"Liverpool is awesome. Judging from the scene in the first half, Liverpool is more like the side with the advantage!"

"Haha, Manchester City may not have thought that there would be teams in the Premier League that would dare to compete with them!"

"Chamberlain performed very well today. Compared with the previous game, he seemed like a different person!"

"Haha, it seems that I have to change my nickname for Chamberlain. From now on, I won't call him Zhang Jiuling, but Zhang Zhenyue!"

Liverpool fans were very pleasantly surprised by the team's performance today. They lost so miserably in the away game in the last game, which made many fans feel a little scared.

Although this is their home court, even though they shouted the slogan of revenge against Manchester City very early.

But no matter how loud the slogan is, if it can't be achieved, it will still be in vain.

However, today, Liverpool used their wonderful performance in the first half to dispel their concerns and make them optimistic again.

Many people have begun to look forward to it, expecting Liverpool to defeat Manchester City at home and break the opponent's unbeaten streak.

They lost miserably to Manchester City, and now they can win back and break the opponent's undefeated streak. This kind of revenge is what they look forward to most.

Of course, it would be even more perfect if they could score a few more goals and beat Manchester City like they did when Manchester City played them.

However, with Manchester City's strength, it may be difficult to achieve this, so the fans can only think about it in their hearts.

"We can't be too optimistic yet. It's only half time now. Although Manchester City was caught off guard by us in the first half, they didn't show signs of defeat. Instead, they quickly equalized the score after falling behind. This ability to withstand pressure, As expected, they are currently the number one team in the Premier League, and we at Liverpool are still far behind them."

Seeing that everyone was optimistic, someone stood up to cool everyone down and lower their expectations. In this way, there wouldn't be such a big psychological gap when their expectations failed.

However, the situation in the second half was not what they feared.

Liverpool is crazier than in the first half!

In the 59th minute, Liverpool successfully stole the ball from De Bruyne through a double-team in the backcourt.

After getting the ball, Liverpool immediately launched a counterattack, Chamberlain received the ball and moved forward.

Fernandinho, who was supposed to come up to intercept, thought he would pass to Liverpool's central player, but made a misjudgment at the first opportunity, leaving Chamberlain with no defenders around him.

Seeing this, Chamberlain decisively dribbled the ball forward at high speed, and after half-time, he made a through ball and sent the ball into the penalty area.

Liverpool forward Firmino squeezed away Stones who was defending him, and when the goalkeeper attacked, he cleverly chose to shoot into the far corner.

There was a loud bang and the football hit the post again, but this time it bounced into the net.

Liverpool took the lead again and the score became 2:1.

Firmino's goal completely ignited the atmosphere in Anfield and completely lifted Liverpool's momentum.

In the 62nd minute, Salah once again successfully stole the ball in the frontcourt. He passed the ball to Mane on the left. Mane made a slight adjustment and shot through Manchester City's gate for the third time.

The score became 3:1.

In just 3 minutes, Liverpool scored two goals, causing the game to take a turn for the worse.

Manchester City is in danger of collapse at this moment, because the opponent has gone completely crazy!

However, what makes matters worse is that the continuous conceding of goals and mistakes has greatly affected the mentality of Manchester City players, especially those on the defensive line.

In the 68th minute, Ederson made a huge mistake.

The opponent stole the ball again in the frontcourt and passed the ball too wide. Ederson could have calmly controlled the ball and passed it to his teammates.

But seeing many opposing players rushing over aggressively, Ederson subconsciously chose to make a big-footed save.

Then an accident happened. His clearance hit Salah. Salah saw that the goalkeeper was too far forward and lobbed a shot through Manchester City's door for the fourth time.

The score became 4:1!

The Liverpool fans in the stands have gone completely crazy!

This score is so incredible that even the most optimistic people before the game would not dare to imagine that Liverpool could beat Manchester City 4:1 at home!

You must know that Manchester City has never lost on multiple fronts this season. How could such an undefeated team be so easily bloodbathed by Liverpool?

However, the reality is far more optimistic than they imagined!

Some Liverpool fans even felt that this was almost a replica of the first round between the two sides. The difference was that this time, Manchester City was passively beaten and had no power to fight back.

At this time, Liverpool's condition has fully improved, but on the other hand, Manchester City's continuous conceding of goals has greatly reduced their morale, and their mentality has also been affected a lot.

Ederson's mistake just now can be reflected on one or two. If he were not disappointed and worried about his own defender, he wouldn't have been so anxious to make a clearance just now. After all, Mane is still at least five or six meters away from him, and he doesn't need to be like this at all. hurry.

Even if you need to clear the ball, you can kick the ball to the side and out of bounds. Giving the opponent a throw-in is much better than giving the opponent a direct shot.

Therefore, Liverpool fans are certain that their home team can continue to score goals and continue to rub salt into Manchester City's wounds!

However, they are a little too optimistic.

This Manchester City team has never experienced anything like this. It's just three goals behind, and it's not like the sky is falling.

Besides, their lead in the league is so big that even losing by one goal isn't a big deal.

When the young players in the team were a little panicked, captain Lin Quan stood up.

He took advantage of the opponent's celebration time to chat with Ederson and several defenders to calm their emotions.

Ederson, Walker and others felt relieved when they saw Lin Quan, De Bruyne and other old players and gods were there without panic.

At critical moments, it is very critical for a team to have someone step forward to stabilize the morale of the army.

On the sidelines, Guardiola was also aware of the team's problems.

He thought for a moment and made a bold substitution decision.

In the 71st minute, Manchester City made substitution adjustments.

Mbappe came off the field and Seat B, also from Monaco, came on as a substitute.

Mbappe's performance in this game was not very good. He did not get a good chance on the wing. Liverpool targeted him very much and did not give him many opportunities to catch the ball and sprint.

Moreover, Mbappe's defense was not good enough. Manchester City's right side was almost silent in this game. On the contrary, Sane's side was very loud, creating a mutual explosion with Chamberlain's side who performed well on the opponent's side.

Mbappe is a sharp dagger, but some situations are not suitable for daggers.

Guardiola's substitution has had a very good effect.

Compared with Mbappe, Seat B is more comprehensive in that he can rush, lead and pass.

Although the offensive attributes are not as outstanding as Mbappe, when there are other scorers on the court, a player like him who can provide huge help to the midfield is more useful.

After taking a 4:1 lead, Liverpool hoped to beat Manchester City to death in one go.

But when Seat B came on stage, they gradually realized that something was not right.

Manchester City's control in the midfield began to gradually become stronger, and the effect of their high-position press declined instead of increasing.

In fact, the number of times Manchester City threatened their goal began to gradually increase.

"Manchester City is really tenacious. If it were another team, I'm afraid it would have collapsed!"

In the stands, Liverpool fans saw that their opponents were still playing in an orderly manner without any signs of panic even when they were lagging behind by such a big score. Even the defenders who had been a little exhausted before were performing much better now than before. .

Manchester City truly deserves to be a top team, and it seems they deserve the top spot in the Premier League.

However, Liverpool fans do not think Manchester City can make a difference at Anfield.

It's been 70 minutes, Liverpool is three goals ahead, and they're still playing at home.

Tell me how Manchester City made a comeback?

The game seemed to be going pretty much the way they thought it would.

After Manchester City's offensive threat became greater, Liverpool immediately changed its strategy.

Klopp replaced old Manchester City player Milner in an attempt to strengthen control in the middle.

Milner is a versatile player who can play in many positions. He was once used as a snake oil in Manchester City.

After he came on, he brought a certain intensity to Liverpool's midfield, making it more difficult for Manchester City to attack.

More than ten minutes passed after Manchester City made the substitution, but the score on the field remained unchanged.

In the 84th minute, seeing that there were only a few minutes left before the end of the game, the Liverpool fans in the stands were already preparing to cheer for victory.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.

In the 83rd minute, Lin Quan organized an attack. After leading forward for a while and finding that there was no good chance, he passed the ball back to De Bruyne.

De Bruyne knocked across to Seat B on the wing. Seat B moved forward along the wing for a distance, attracting double-teams from two opposing players.

Just when he was about to pass back, he saw Lin Quan coming over from the corner of his eye.

Seat B passed the ball to Lin Quan without hesitation. Lin Quan was closely followed by Liverpool players. As soon as they saw Lin Quan get the ball, they rushed over to restrict him from playing the ball.

However, Lin Quan's handling surprised him. Faced with the pass from seat B, Lin Quan did not catch the ball, but directly kicked the ball and passed it to the side again.

He only acted as a wall, bouncing the ball back from Seat B. After he got rid of the opponent's interception, the ball was handed over to him again.

Although Seat B has not transferred to Manchester City for a long time, he has a high football IQ. Although he is not sure whether Lin Quanhui will see the space in front of him, he still chooses to move forward immediately after passing the ball. run.

Lin Quan lived up to his expectations. When others had just reached their position, the ball had already been passed.

Seat B once again received the ball on the wing, and this time, there was a space in front of him.

Seeing Seat B about to break into the penalty area, Liverpool's defense sounded the alarm.

And when they focused their defensive attention on Seat B, Seat B took a few steps forward and then knocked the ball across the middle.

Aguero in the middle wanted to adjust his shot, but was blocked by Matip.

But he saw the space next to him and lightly kicked the ball over.

A blue figure passed by him, got the ball in this unguarded position, and swept the ball into the goal from the near corner with one kick.

The score became 4:2, and the scorer was Manchester City's No. 10 Lin Quan!

This was a typical Manchester City goal. At the end of the kick, there were as many as 5 Manchester City players outflanking the opponent's penalty area, more than the opponent's defensive players.

They used passing and controlling methods to completely penetrate Liverpool's defense.

This goal made the Liverpool fans at the scene a little uneasy, and many people subconsciously looked up at the time on the big screen.

The game has reached eighty-four minutes, and including injury time, it is only 10 minutes at most.

But their lead has shrunk to 2 goals. Can they hold on in the last ten minutes?

On the sidelines, Klopp also smelled danger.

He made successive substitution adjustments, replacing Salah, replacing Lallana, replacing Manny, and replacing Klavan.

These two substitutions and adjustments revealed a signal that Liverpool must start to seek stability and preserve the fruits of victory.

However, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. When Liverpool tends to be conservative, the threat their offense poses to Manchester City is greatly reduced, and Manchester City has more energy to devote to the offense.

At the last moment of the game, Manchester City had already gone all out. Even the goalkeeper had already reached the center circle. Even when setting the ball, he had to rush into the penalty area to participate in the top battle.

At this time, one goal after another was scored, and there was no concern about conceding goals or anything like that.

Losing two is a loss, losing three is also a loss, there is no difference.

Therefore, madness is the undertone of Manchester City.

In the 87th minute, Lin Quan dribbled the ball in the frontcourt and took it from left to right along the edge of the opponent's penalty area. Taking advantage of the opportunity of many defensive players of the opponent being attracted to him, Lin Quan passed the ball to De Bruyne in front of him. .

De Bruyne moved his foot and passed the ball from the right to the left.

Aguero, who was unmarked on the left, volleyed and swept the ball into the goal again.

The score became 4:3!

Liverpool's lead was down to the last goal, and at this time, there were at least 6-7 minutes left before the end of the game!

There is still a lot of time left for Manchester City!

Seeing Aguero's goal, both the Liverpool fans in the stands and Klopp himself on the coaching bench were a little panicked.

The cheers at Anfield seemed to have weakened a lot. A large number of Liverpool fans were watching the game with their hearts in their hands, and they were praying in their hearts while watching.

You must hold on, there is only the last ball left, if you hold on for a few minutes, you will win!

Sometimes, the more you fear something, the more likely it will happen.

If at the beginning of the second half, Liverpool was in great form and could do whatever they wanted, then the last moment was Manchester City's performance moment!

In injury time, Lin Quan and De Bruyne hit the wall continuously.

Liverpool's defense was beaten to pieces by the two men. After Lin Quan broke into the penalty area, he almost challenged the goalkeeper.

Karius desperately chose to attack, but Lin Quan, who was beaten crazy, passed by and pushed the shot into the empty goal.

The score became 4:4.

When Manchester City was lagging behind by a big margin, they chased three goals in a row and incredibly equalized the score! (End of chapter)
