Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned
Chapter 429 World 1 Wei?It was World 1 Wei who was playing!
利物浦开球,射门6比1,射正3比1,控球55%比45%,但比分却是0比1。
The broadcaster put subtitles on the screen again, and the commentators from various countries immediately said excitedly:
"The goal just now was Chen Xiaoliang's 33rd goal in the league this season, and also his 50th goal in all competitions throughout the season!"
The careful director then pointed the camera at a black man in sportswear on the Manchester United bench, but unlike the scoring data just now, most of the commentators did not know who this black man was.
But soon, everyone got his information, whether it was reminded by senior fans or the assistants of the live broadcast platform.
Lou Yichen: "The full name of the young player pointed at by the camera just now is Nestri Ilankunda. He is 18 years old and currently plays for Adelaide United in the Australian League. He has joined the club since September 2021, 9. He has played for the team for two and a half years, has dual citizenship of Australia and Burundi, and is a player who came out of African refugee camps."
Liu Yue: "Bayern Munich had a relatively in-depth contact with him last summer, but Tuchel could not give him a chance to play in the first team. It is said that the two parties have signed a personal agreement, but the player's agent is currently Riise. Judging from his appearance on the Manchester United bench today and wearing the Manchester United training uniform, he should have joined Manchester United."
The news obtained by the two commentators is basically consistent with the facts, except that Riise is also sitting in the familiar stadium at Anfield above the stand where the camera is not aimed at. Due to the relationship between him and Liverpool, he cannot The player accompanying his new agent sits directly behind United's bench.
Manchester United is already in the process of selling Sancho, Elanga, Diallo, Peristri, Brandon Williams and others. Based on the team's current performance and future long-term development goals, these players They are all regarded as lacking the ability to help the team, and the success of the three heroes of Rome, especially Chen Xiaoliang, after coming to the team, also made the club start to pay attention to the introduction of talented players under the age of 21.
In addition to the 18-year-old Ilankunda, Ten Hag also promoted the two Spanish defenders of the youth team, Alvaro Fernandez, also known as A Fee, to the first team together with Marc Jurado, and promised to play next season. Will give them a chance to play some serious games.
Interestingly, these two Spanish players were bought by Manchester United in the summer window of 2020 and arranged to train with the youth training team. Counting Real Madrid's youth training, the latter is a native Catalan who spent 17 years in Barcelona's youth training.
Tonight, these two people also went out with the team, and felt the shocking atmosphere of the double red meeting on the spot.
On the field, Liverpool is still tirelessly suppressing the attack. Although Chen Xiaoliang's goal was caused by various flaws, they are not surprised. The tone set by Klopp in this game is very clear, that is, attack .
It is very difficult to defend Manchester United's offense. If you want to defeat them, you can only strangle their vitals and continue to attack.
As the team that scored 96 goals this season and ranked first in the league's scoring list, they do have this strength.
Klopp is no stranger to the situation, although they currently sit third in the league.
In the 2019-20 season, Manchester City scored 102 goals, but finally ranked second with 81 points. Liverpool "only" scored 2 goals, but won the first Premier League championship in team history with 85 points.
In the 24th minute, Barrera shot from a long distance and hit directly high.
In the 29th minute, Arnold made a high pass from the right and was ejected by Varane.
In the 32nd minute, Nunez cut in from the left and sent a direct pass. Gakpo received the ball obliquely from the left side of the penalty area and shot the goal, which was blocked by De Gea from the bottom line.
In the 33rd minute, Adeno took a corner kick, Milinkovic competed for the top and destroyed it, Manchester United counterattacked, and a ball appeared to B Fee, B Fee passed the ball directly to Cesco, who was advancing in the middle, Sesco He hit the goal on the penalty area line, and was stabbed out of the sideline by Gwadiol, who was defending closely.
In the 34th minute, Manchester United had a ball from the right sideline. After receiving the ball, Chen Xiaoliang directly kicked and passed it. The ball accurately found Sesco, who seemed to be in very good form today. Wearing Manchester United's No. 9 jersey, he headed the ball and the ball bounced After flying to the goal, Alisson struggled to block it.
At this point, the shooting was 10 to 4, and the game was played very fiercely, causing fans from both sides to hug their heads and sigh, stamp their feet and exclaim.
Until the 42nd minute, the game finally ushered in another change.
The most active person on the field today is none other than Barrera. Of course he knows about the past between Salah and Real Madrid. Settle the accounts, but they all added a new account to their accounts after the game.
Barrera didn't want that.
After being tricked by Chen Xiaoliang's fake action just now, he knelt on the ground in embarrassment to witness his clever shot and scored. He was already furious. Right now, no matter what, he has to do everything to help the team win the home game.
In the middle, Lavia passed the ball to him on the right side of the midfield, advanced a period of defense against Chen Xiaoliang, he passed the ball to McAllister on the left, and then started to move to the left.
McAllister dribbled the ball across the center line and continued to advance. B Fei rushed over to defend. The Argentine midfielder pushed the ball forward and returned it to Barrera who had already run in front of him without the ball.
Facing Milinkovic's defense, Barrera, who is not too fast, controls the ball with his right foot and pretends to change direction, but suddenly sends a wonderful through ball while dribbling the ball towards the top of the arc. The ball passed between Manchester United's two defensive midfielders, and then rolled in front of Lima, and accurately found Gakpo who was advancing!
Gakpo took the ball and took a step, and he was very close to the right corner of the small penalty area. Lima turned around and hurried to defend, but this Gakpo had already made a shot.
Lima didn't have time to think about it, so he went directly to the ground and put the shovel. After the right foot of Jiakebo's shot landed, he changed the ball to the left and dunked the ball.
With this dunk, his feet perfectly hit Lima's tackle's legs.
Gakpo fell and referee Tim Robinson blew his whistle and pointed to the penalty spot.
Lima got up and didn't have anything to say. No matter how you look at it, the ball was indeed a penalty. Fortunately, the referee didn't draw the card.
Chen Xiaoliang came over and patted Lima, telling him not to care.
The others didn't say anything, as humans will make mistakes. For a ruthless person like Lima, everyone knows that he will try his best to get back in the next game.
Salah stood on the penalty spot. Before facing Manchester United, his penalty kick flew away, but today the Egyptian striker did not make the same mistake again. He pushed the upper left corner of the goal with his left foot. Diao, plus De Gea did not judge the direction, the ball was hit steadily, and the score was tied to 1-1.
Soon after halftime, the two sides returned to their locker rooms calmly.
Judging from the process of the game, both sides have no problems in tactical execution, and even more so in terms of game mentality. Originally, there was no need for any mobilization for a century-old game like the Double Red Club, let alone the fact that it was mixed with Personal vendettas of some players.
Both Ten Hag and Klopp are paying close attention to every second to arrange tactical adjustments for the players in the second half, especially Manchester United. In view of several weaknesses being grabbed by the opponent, he can only directly face the whole team. , explained to Milinkovic, and then replaced him with Timber.
Milinkovic accepted it here, and he himself really felt uncomfortable playing in the first half.
As a hexagonal midfielder, only speed is his weakness, but at the age of 29, he is no longer a young man who is startled and surprised. There are also players like Chen Xiaoliang, Casemiro, and B Fei. As long as the team can win, it is completely acceptable to replace themselves.
On Liverpool's side, Klopp highly praised Barrera's performance, and kept emphasizing the need to improve calm and focus in the second half and continue to speed up.
Back on the field in the second half, Klopp was a little surprised that Ten Hag could replace Milinkovic so decisively.
Compared with Milinkovic, Timber's offensive and long passing abilities are much worse, but his steals and reaction speed are much faster.
Before kick-off in the second half, he kept waving his hands to the stands, indicating that the fans at home should be louder, creating more noise pressure on Manchester United.
"Beep!"
In the second half, when Manchester United kicked off, Sesco pushed the ball to Chen Xiaoliang. After receiving the ball, Chen Xiaoliang did not rush to advance, but waited for his teammates to move forward one after another before starting to act.
McAllister came up to defend, and Chen Xiaoliang dribbled the ball directly to the front left.
Varela also ran over to double-team, Chen Xiaoliang kicked the ball past him and passed it to Kwa on the left.
The two central midfielders were attracted by Chen Xiaoliang, and Kewa received the ball and began to cut inward to the left rib.
Facing Arnold, whether in Rome or Manchester United, he has an excellent one-on-one winning percentage, but at this time, Arnold has Lavia by his side.
Kewa changed direction, and then continued to cut in, Arnold was in charge of the rear, and Lavia came up directly to the body.
Kewa thought to himself: Well, knowing that Arnold can't guard against me, I am here to ambush one.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the position of Chen Xiaoliang, who was running forward, and then stopped cutting in with a feint, and walked to the side again.
Luke Shaw has been asked by Ten Hag not to enter the opponent's offensive third area at will, to ensure that he can defend and return to his position immediately after the offensive and defensive transition, so he is standing about 5 meters past the center line at this time, waiting for Kwa at any time return.
Kewa was reluctant to advance such a long distance, and he had to pass back when he hit the left corner of the penalty area, so he forced Arnold.
But with the help of Lavia, Arnold doesn't have to worry about Kwa shaking, he just needs to block the outside line and firmly block the position to prevent Kwa from passing.
Seeing that he was about to lose the ball again, Kwa passed directly with his left foot, and the ball was blocked by Lavia with his head and went out of the sideline.
At this point, the originally smooth attack became fragmented. Kewa raised his hand and signaled to Chen Xiaoliang, who was in the middle, that he hadn't handled it well.
Luke Shaw came up to throw a sideline ball, and the position behind him was blocked by Casemiro, and Kwa was still surrounded by two people. Luke Shaw had no choice but to throw it back to Casemiro.
Van der Garhe looked at Kwa's performance just now, and said to Ten Hag who was sitting beside him: "He still wants to prove himself too much."
"This season he scored a total of 9 goals and 14 assists. Last season he scored 15 goals and 20 assists in Rome. He is obviously dissatisfied with the decline in his data."
Ten Hag nodded: "23 years old, what should be experienced must be experienced, not everyone is as precocious as him."
The "he" here refers to Chen Xiaoliang, of course.
Casemiro reorganized, Chen Xiaoliang retreated and asked Casemiro for the ball.
Kwa from the left asked for the ball again, but Chen Xiaoliang didn't give it to him. Instead, he took the ball to the right and passed it to B Fei who was on the side.
After the ball was passed, he made a gesture to Kwa to plug in and catch the ball.
Unexpectedly, the gesture was not finished here, but the offensive routine was played out there.
B Fei, who was on the side, received the ball from Chen Xiaoliang. Since he couldn't pass Robertson, he took it to the left rib. Wan Bisaka behind him advanced at full speed, and B Fei pushed the ball to the side. Wan Bisaka After receiving the ball, he kicked up and passed directly.
Everyone knows that his cross is not good, but this pass is really good.
The arc must be arc and the accuracy must be accurate. Relying on his younger body, Sesco forcibly took off before Van Dijk to compete for the top, and the ball was ejected by him in an arc.
The ball was hoisted from the right side of the penalty spot to the left side of the goal. Alisson, who was standing too close to the goal post, failed to catch it in time. Seeing that he was about to score, Gwadiol rushed to the goal line and jumped suddenly. The ball went over the baseline before falling into the goal!
Seeing this scene, Cesko immediately knelt on the ground and covered his face with his hands.
"Beep!" The referee Tim Robinson awarded Manchester United a left corner kick!
Lou Yichen: "Hanging! Almost, even Alisson gave up. I didn't expect Sesco's old teammate, Croatian Guvadior to predict the trajectory of the ball and forcefully make a clearance on the goal line!"
Liu Yue: "The contribution of this goal is no less than that of scoring a goal."
Lou Yichen: "That's right!"
"Luke Shaw came up and took the corner, let's see how it works."
"It seems that Xiao Liang is talking to Cesko."
On the side, the players from both sides are standing. Chen Xiaoliang is standing beside Cesko, and behind him is Kewa. He covers his mouth with his hand and says:
"Don't worry, you two, think about what your opponents are afraid of. One way doesn't always work, so just think about another way. Don't be single-minded to the end. You will encounter hundreds of times during extra training. .”
After finishing speaking, he patted Sesko's butt.
He has a good family background since he was a child, unlike Kwa, who has a very strong obsession with perfection. His character is more open-minded and free-spirited. Playing professional football did not change his family conditions too much. The obsession to achieve class leap is more of pure love.
This also created a character that he doesn't like to fight and grab.
But this does not mean that he does not pursue statistics and victories, defeating more and stronger opponents, of course it means that he has made greater progress in his favorite career.
Driven by this kind of personality, it is difficult for people to see the phenomenon of cutting corners in him, such as "I don't believe it", "I just want to try again", "What I do is my business and you don't need to worry about it" and so on. response.
For this "Liangzi" who had been with him for three years, he had always been in admiration, so what Chen Xiaoliang said just now immediately prompted him to start thinking seriously.
Soon, he made a "three" gesture to Luke Shaw.
Van Dijk in the penalty area immediately yelled, the scouting team had seen this gesture in Manchester United games before!
In the last UEFA Champions League semi-final in which Manchester United reversed Manchester City, Chen Xiaoliang made this gesture, and then passed the ball to the penalty spot.
Van Dijk clung to Sesco, who was standing on the penalty spot, and according to the defensive duties, as long as Chen Xiaoliang entered the penalty area during the set kick attack, Gwadior would be responsible for defending him one-on-one.
When Chen Xiaoliang saw his old teammates, he immediately started talking trash: "Don't bother, when did you beat me?"
Gwadior remained silent, still clinging to Chen Xiaoliang.
Chen Xiaoliang: "Just this intensity? You forgot what you practiced in the extra training?"
Gvardio was still silent.
Chen Xiaoliang: "What? Did you become dumb after going to Liverpool? Or is there no one who loves you? No one loves you, come to Manchester United, I will protect you."
Gwadiol: "What the hell... who told you not to buy me to buy that Shapi Timber."
Gwadiol has always been conceited and arrogant, and his arrogance is not as sullen as that of Kwa, he is aboveboard and awesome. When he was first loaned to Rome, he didn't think about it for a while. Chen Xiaoliang took it seriously.
Timber, who was staying near the center line, sneezed. If it wasn't for the tee shot in the penalty area, Chen Xiaoliang couldn't help laughing.
Chen Xiaoliang: "Sure enough, I miss my brother. Hurry up and submit the transfer application. My brother will buy you in summer."
Gwadior: "Go away."
"Beep!" The whistle sounded over there, and Luke Shaw saw Sesco's gesture and started to run up to kick off.
For a time, there was Chen Xiaoliang on the left side of the penalty spot, Varane on the front point, Sesco on the right side of the penalty point, Kwa at the back point, Casemiro in the small penalty area, and B Fee on the line of the penalty area. It can be said that the left, middle, right, far, middle and near have deployed attacking forces.
The left-footed player takes a left corner kick, and the spin of the ball flies out of the penalty area.
After the ball got up, it first passed the front point, but the height was too high, Varane did not take off, and then came to the front side of the penalty point, the ball fell rapidly, Chen Xiaoliang just carried Gwadiol behind him and took a step forward to take off!
Gwadiol followed closely, and immediately let go of the right hand that was pulling Chen Xiaoliang's jersey, lest the referee's eyes focus on him.
But he didn't take off. He saw the height of the ball, coupled with his understanding of Chen Xiaoliang's tactical habits, he knew that Chen Xiaoliang's take-off was a feint, and it was impossible to hit the ball.
And the team's landing point is behind him, on the penalty spot.
Based on his visual prediction, the ball will not fall too high. Based on his understanding of Sesco's confrontation ability in the penalty area, especially the past of the two in extra training and the league confrontation in the first half of the season , the experienced Van Dijk should be able to easily overwhelm Sesco and destroy the ball.
However, he forgot one thing. He knew Cesco, but Van Dyke didn't. What the former world health guard was still thinking about was the "three" gesture that Sescobi made just now.
Sure enough, the ball did fly to the penalty spot!
His body was pressed against Cesko's back. Although there was no pulling action in his hands, such a confrontational restraint could also make Cesko unable to jump at all, or jump up and not jump high.
In his script, when the ball falls a little further, he will take off with a half-pressed posture on Cesko, and the downward reaction force will further make Cesko lose his ability to compete for the top.
Not surprisingly, an accident happened.
When Van Dyke wanted to jump, he found that he couldn't jump at all!
It turned out that he pressed Sesko's back forward, and Sesko's legs were slightly bent, and he sat halfway back on Van Dyke's lap!
If Van Dijk wanted to take off, he could only retreat, but in this way, not only would there be no time, but he would also give up the stuck position to Sesco.
The falling ball came in an instant, and there was no time for him to adjust. In desperation, Van Dijk could only push forward, trying to break Cesko's balance.
Cesko leaned forward slightly, flicked his head facing the left side of the court, and hit the falling ball accurately on his right forehead.
Although Barrera, who was defending Casemiro in the small penalty area, had already made up for the near post, and Alisson also made a pounce, but no one expected that Van Dijk would attack Cesco's header. The gate failed to make any obvious interference and damage in defense.
This kind of head-shaking attack from a penalty distance, catching the potential energy brought by the ball falling high, flew to the left post very quickly, and then flew into Liverpool's gate!
Lou Yichen: "Oh! This goal has been scored!"
"Van Dyke! I was scolded by McAllister just now, I don't know what's going on this time."
Liu Yue: "The two people should be exerting force on each other to restrain each other's movements. It seems that the position was blocked by Sesco, and Van Dyke couldn't jump up, which caused Sesco to almost stand on the spot and fully adjust his posture. , easily headed the ball in."
Lou Yichen: "Not long after the start of the second half, in the 47th minute, Manchester United rewrote the score again, 1 to 2, leading Liverpool away!"
"Ryoko! Ryoko!"
On the field, Cesko, who was celebrating, saw Chen Xiaoliang coming, and shouted excitedly:
"Sure enough, you're right. I can't handle him by jumping up, so I just won't dance! Haha!"
Chen Xiaoliang also laughed. In fact, what he wanted to say was not what he meant, but he wanted Cesco to hit the ground to outflank the ball more often.
did not expect…
Now that the opportunity to load coins came, he had to finish it with tears in his eyes. He patted Sesko:
"Now that I have the feeling of heading the ball, I can also try to use my feet later to catch them by surprise!"
Cesko: "Haha, oh!"
This time McAllister was also stunned. He was not tall and defended the B fee on the penalty line. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Cesco standing and pushing the ball in...
Alisson spread his hands and looked at Van Dijk speechlessly. He didn't know what happened to this good partner who could guard against everything two or three years ago tonight, or in the past two years.
Gwadiol is also very helpless, but he has not been there long enough, is too young, and does not have the blessing of the World Cup champion or America's Cup champion, otherwise he would like to ask Van Dijk what happened.
But he couldn't switch positions with Van Dijk. Compared with Chen Xiaoliang, a big killer who can score 50 goals in a season, Cesco can only be regarded as a small threat.
If Van Dijk is in today's state to switch defenses, it may be necessary to reproduce the disaster scene of Chen Xiaoliang scoring 5 goals in the last game.
On the sidelines, Klopp crossed his hands on his chest, bowed his head and paced in thought.
Van Dijk is not Milinkovic, he can win if he wins. After Milner and Henderson leave, he is the first captain of the team. Although he no longer has the ability and state of Shi Yiwei, But in most games, he is still a reliable top central defender. In addition, he has worked hard and made great contributions to the team over the years. He needs to maintain it on and off the field, as well as in the locker room.
Even if it really needs to be resolved, it will have to be resolved at the end of the season.
He chose to wait a little longer while letting the French defender Konate start warming up.
But this time, waiting for an unexpected result.
In the 57th minute, Liverpool scored from a corner kick. Alexander-Arnold made a curved kick from the right. After the header bounced from the center, Gwadiol was cleared by Lima, but the ball was not kicked far. top outside catches the ball
Playing very depressed tonight, he lifted his right foot and volleyed. As a result, the ball missed the goal frame, but hit B Fei's open hand impartially.
At that moment, the entire Anfield, from Liverpool fans to Liverpool players, raised their hands.
The referee Tim Robinson didn't dare to be too big. As a rookie with only two and a half years of experience in law enforcement in the Premier League and as the referee in the first season of this season, he chose to go to see VAR.
The result is very clear. B Fei's left hand has indeed left his torso. Although it is not an intentional handball, it is a so-called "ball hitter", but rules are rules.
However, VAR also clearly shows that the handball is inside the top of the arc and outside the penalty area line.
"Beep!"
After he made the VAR gesture, he awarded Liverpool a free kick from the front of the penalty area.
At the beginning of the first half, Arnold almost scored a free kick from almost the same position. This time Arnold and Salah appeared behind the penalty spot at the same time again, and Manchester United formed a 6-man wall to protect the goal.
De Gea kept reminding the wall and paying attention to the changes in the coordination of the opponent's free kick.
But the ball still failed to defend.
Just after the referee blew the whistle and signaled for a free throw, Arnold and Salah didn't move. Instead, Barrera, who was standing behind the two, started to run up, posing like Robert Carlos wanted to hit the goal with heavy artillery.
Sesco, Casemiro, Timbell and others on the human wall quickly turned their heads and covered their chests and crotches, lest their happiness for the rest of their lives be kicked away.
The moment Barrera touched the ball with his right foot, Cesko, who was tallest, jumped slightly.
As a result, Barrera kicked a ground ball, which happened to roll past Sesco's feet.
Everyone was unprepared for this sudden low free kick, and De Gea stood still without making any saves!
Lou Yichen: "2 to 2! The 60th minute! Barrera!"
"Wow, he was very excited. If he didn't get a yellow card for taking off his clothes, it felt like he would tear up his jersey."
Liu Yue: "The red card in the last game, coupled with the 6-0 score, caused him to be warned by a large number of fans, and even death threats. This kind of experience is something he has never encountered in Serie A."
Varela was really excited. While grabbing the Liverpool team logo on his clothes, he ran to the KOP stand with red cheeks and shouted at the diehard Liverpool fans:
"Ah!!! Absolutely won't let them take any point from us!!!"
"Yeah!!! Never!!!"
This kind of key goal made Liverpool fans instantly regard him as a hero, and many burly men from Merseyside shouted at him with blushing faces and thick necks:
"Destroy them!!!"
"England has only a tinge of red!!!"
B Fei was speechless. It is reasonable to say that the ball was his fault, but his teammates didn't blame him.
He actively ran over to block Van Dijk, who would keep his hands close to his body when he was running normally, who would have thought that the guy's footwork was so accurate, he kicked his hands without kicking anything...
It can only be said that it is unlucky to drink cold water and get stuck between the teeth.
Sesco took the initiative to take the blame, telling his teammates that he was not good and that he should not take off.
But again no one blamed him.
Chen Xiaoliang patted him, and while walking towards the middle circle to prepare for the kick-off, he told him that he would pass two more passes to him later.
Cesko: "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Chen Xiaoliang: "Okay."
Not surprisingly, accidents happened again...
Chen Xiaoliang thought that what Cesco said "according to what you said" meant giving him a few more passes and attacking a few times, but Cesco still remembered what Chen Xiaoliang said just now when he accidentally pretended to be successful, "Try with your feet next time." "...
Liverpool hadn't been happy with the equalizer here for long. Six minutes later, that is, in the 6th minute, Manchester United attacked to the right.
This time, B Fei and Chen Xiaoliang switched positions, and Chen Xiaoliang pulled the side to receive a pass from Dalot who replaced Wan Bisaka and rushed forward.
According to Klopp's tactical arrangement, Robertson directly retreated to the penalty area line, and the close defense was handed over to McAllister and Nunes who retreated.
Chen Xiaoliang couldn't completely guard against it, and in that case, he had to focus.
What Klopp set is to prevent breakthroughs but not passes.
Although Chen Xiaoliang's pass is also abnormal, it is still less of a threat than the threat of him rushing into the penalty area and facing the goal. Besides, when the ball is passed, Chen Xiaoliang's threat is gone, and the rest of the shots have to be completed by his teammates. Others defend well, and no matter how good the pass is, it cannot be converted into offense.
It can only be said that Klopp said that he would not take special defense against Chen Xiaoliang, but he still paid too much attention to the Manchester United captain in his heart.
And he may still feel in his heart that he is coaching the former Premier League champions and Champions League champions, forgetting that the team did not even make it to the Champions League last season, let alone the offensive combination he faced, representing Roma last season Won the Triple Crown.
Anyone's success is inseparable from accidental factors, that is, luck, but such a success as the Triple Crown, luck only accounts for a very small part, without the strength to defeat all opponents, no matter how good luck is, it is useless.
I can only blame Chen Xiaoliang for being too dazzling. Anyone who sees a player who can score 50 goals and send 40 assists in a season will have trouble sleeping at night.
Then he couldn't help but focus on him, forgetting how good his teammates are.
Just like Villa next to Messi and Benzema next to Ronaldo.
Chen Xiaoliang leads to the bottom line, McAllister guards the inside line to prevent him from rushing in from the bottom, Nunes blocks his line of cutting inside, but both of them are about 3 meters away from him, resolutely implement the coach's defense against penetration The pass tactic, I wish Chen Xiaoliang could quickly pass the ball close to the right side.
When Chen Xiaoliang saw this posture, he knew what they wanted to do.
I thought: If this is the case, then I will fulfill you.
He aimed at the position of Sesco, who was in excellent form today, and rubbed the ball over.
But after the ball went out, he was also stunned.
He obviously aimed at the place where Cesko was one step ahead, and he passed the ball very accurately. This kind of landing point can allow Cesko to take a step forward to have a run-up, and then take off and use force to form a rush to the top. The strength of the big header.
However, I didn't expect Cesko to face Van Dijk who was defending him, and he did rush forward, but after rushing, he turned his back to the goal...
Beside him, B Fee from the previous point had already feinted and took off, and Gvadio saw that the landing point was not on B Feina, so he also came to help Van Dyke to double-team Cesko, but when he saw Sesco When he turned around, he was also stunned.
"Could it be?! Want a barb?!"
The moment the ball fell, Gwadior suddenly had this idea, but the time was too short, and his body had no time to move.
The next moment, he saw Cesko lift his right leg and use his thigh to pad the falling ball into the air.
"What the hell is this for?!"
This question is no longer posed by Gwadiol alone, it is posed by countless fans, whether on the scene or in front of the TV!
In about half a second, the ball flew up, then reached the highest point, and then fell again.
Van Dijk didn't move, Gwadiol didn't, all the Liverpool players in the box didn't know what was going to happen and didn't move.
Then Cesko fell back, leaned on Van Dijk's chest, lifted his right foot, and kicked the ball towards the goal with a barb shot!
The ball passed over Van Dijk's head and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal!
Alisson made a small jump with both feet. This was the goalkeeper's preparatory action before the side attack, but that was all. What he did afterwards was to turn his head to the left and watch the ball bounce off the bottom of the crossbar and into the goal. !
"Fuck! This kid!"
Chen Xiaoliang grinned and rushed towards Cesko to celebrate.
The Manchester United players on the sidelines all jumped up, Ten Hag got up and hugged his bald head, his mouth was wide open!
Lou Yichen: "Big explosion!!! 2 to 3!"
"Sesco! Score twice! Help Manchester United lead again!"
"Look at the replay! It's done in one go! Talent visible to the naked eye!"
"It's not just the barb that breaks the goal, there's even an action to stop the ball and adjust it before the shot!"
"Van Dijk stood with his hands on his hips and bowed his head helplessly. Today, he seemed to have met his nemesis. He conceded the ball three times, and he hardly made any effective defensive moves!"
Liu Yue: "Except for Xiaoliang's first goal, he really seems to have nothing to do with the last two."
"If I remember correctly, this should be Cesko's 20th goal in all competitions this season. The deal is 5000 million pounds. This deal seems to be really worth it."
Lou Yichen: "Indeed! 14 goals in the league, 1 goal in the FA Cup, 5 goals in the Champions League, according to the current price index of European football, 5000 million pounds to buy a striker who can score 20 goals in a single season is absolutely super. For what it’s worth, not to mention the fact that he’s taking on a lot of containment in the box.”
Cesco ran to the sidelines, and the Manchester United substitutes rushed to surround him to celebrate. After cheering, Cesco gave Chen Xiaoliang a high-five again:
"Ryoko! Your idea is really good!"
"Sure enough, as soon as they use their feet, they will be caught off guard!"
"Made, Ryoko, you are so awesome, we will all lose our jobs if you play as a striker."
Chen Xiaoliang thought to himself: "This kid is in such a good state today, I should have told him to use his butt just now..."
Cesko: "Ryoko, I seem to be in good shape today. I'll pass two more passes later. Where do you think I should shoot?"
Chen Xiaoliang: "You..."
He really wanted to say use his butt, but at this moment the two were close to the arc of the middle circle, and Nunes and Jacques, who were about to kick off, turned to look at them.
Chen Xiaoliang cleared his throat with a "cough cough", pretending to be mysterious: "Remember, let your opponent be caught off guard. You are in good shape today. Try to score goals in ways that your opponent can't think of."
Cesko: "Okay!"
The broadcaster put subtitles on the screen again, and the commentators from various countries immediately said excitedly:
"The goal just now was Chen Xiaoliang's 33rd goal in the league this season, and also his 50th goal in all competitions throughout the season!"
The careful director then pointed the camera at a black man in sportswear on the Manchester United bench, but unlike the scoring data just now, most of the commentators did not know who this black man was.
But soon, everyone got his information, whether it was reminded by senior fans or the assistants of the live broadcast platform.
Lou Yichen: "The full name of the young player pointed at by the camera just now is Nestri Ilankunda. He is 18 years old and currently plays for Adelaide United in the Australian League. He has joined the club since September 2021, 9. He has played for the team for two and a half years, has dual citizenship of Australia and Burundi, and is a player who came out of African refugee camps."
Liu Yue: "Bayern Munich had a relatively in-depth contact with him last summer, but Tuchel could not give him a chance to play in the first team. It is said that the two parties have signed a personal agreement, but the player's agent is currently Riise. Judging from his appearance on the Manchester United bench today and wearing the Manchester United training uniform, he should have joined Manchester United."
The news obtained by the two commentators is basically consistent with the facts, except that Riise is also sitting in the familiar stadium at Anfield above the stand where the camera is not aimed at. Due to the relationship between him and Liverpool, he cannot The player accompanying his new agent sits directly behind United's bench.
Manchester United is already in the process of selling Sancho, Elanga, Diallo, Peristri, Brandon Williams and others. Based on the team's current performance and future long-term development goals, these players They are all regarded as lacking the ability to help the team, and the success of the three heroes of Rome, especially Chen Xiaoliang, after coming to the team, also made the club start to pay attention to the introduction of talented players under the age of 21.
In addition to the 18-year-old Ilankunda, Ten Hag also promoted the two Spanish defenders of the youth team, Alvaro Fernandez, also known as A Fee, to the first team together with Marc Jurado, and promised to play next season. Will give them a chance to play some serious games.
Interestingly, these two Spanish players were bought by Manchester United in the summer window of 2020 and arranged to train with the youth training team. Counting Real Madrid's youth training, the latter is a native Catalan who spent 17 years in Barcelona's youth training.
Tonight, these two people also went out with the team, and felt the shocking atmosphere of the double red meeting on the spot.
On the field, Liverpool is still tirelessly suppressing the attack. Although Chen Xiaoliang's goal was caused by various flaws, they are not surprised. The tone set by Klopp in this game is very clear, that is, attack .
It is very difficult to defend Manchester United's offense. If you want to defeat them, you can only strangle their vitals and continue to attack.
As the team that scored 96 goals this season and ranked first in the league's scoring list, they do have this strength.
Klopp is no stranger to the situation, although they currently sit third in the league.
In the 2019-20 season, Manchester City scored 102 goals, but finally ranked second with 81 points. Liverpool "only" scored 2 goals, but won the first Premier League championship in team history with 85 points.
In the 24th minute, Barrera shot from a long distance and hit directly high.
In the 29th minute, Arnold made a high pass from the right and was ejected by Varane.
In the 32nd minute, Nunez cut in from the left and sent a direct pass. Gakpo received the ball obliquely from the left side of the penalty area and shot the goal, which was blocked by De Gea from the bottom line.
In the 33rd minute, Adeno took a corner kick, Milinkovic competed for the top and destroyed it, Manchester United counterattacked, and a ball appeared to B Fee, B Fee passed the ball directly to Cesco, who was advancing in the middle, Sesco He hit the goal on the penalty area line, and was stabbed out of the sideline by Gwadiol, who was defending closely.
In the 34th minute, Manchester United had a ball from the right sideline. After receiving the ball, Chen Xiaoliang directly kicked and passed it. The ball accurately found Sesco, who seemed to be in very good form today. Wearing Manchester United's No. 9 jersey, he headed the ball and the ball bounced After flying to the goal, Alisson struggled to block it.
At this point, the shooting was 10 to 4, and the game was played very fiercely, causing fans from both sides to hug their heads and sigh, stamp their feet and exclaim.
Until the 42nd minute, the game finally ushered in another change.
The most active person on the field today is none other than Barrera. Of course he knows about the past between Salah and Real Madrid. Settle the accounts, but they all added a new account to their accounts after the game.
Barrera didn't want that.
After being tricked by Chen Xiaoliang's fake action just now, he knelt on the ground in embarrassment to witness his clever shot and scored. He was already furious. Right now, no matter what, he has to do everything to help the team win the home game.
In the middle, Lavia passed the ball to him on the right side of the midfield, advanced a period of defense against Chen Xiaoliang, he passed the ball to McAllister on the left, and then started to move to the left.
McAllister dribbled the ball across the center line and continued to advance. B Fei rushed over to defend. The Argentine midfielder pushed the ball forward and returned it to Barrera who had already run in front of him without the ball.
Facing Milinkovic's defense, Barrera, who is not too fast, controls the ball with his right foot and pretends to change direction, but suddenly sends a wonderful through ball while dribbling the ball towards the top of the arc. The ball passed between Manchester United's two defensive midfielders, and then rolled in front of Lima, and accurately found Gakpo who was advancing!
Gakpo took the ball and took a step, and he was very close to the right corner of the small penalty area. Lima turned around and hurried to defend, but this Gakpo had already made a shot.
Lima didn't have time to think about it, so he went directly to the ground and put the shovel. After the right foot of Jiakebo's shot landed, he changed the ball to the left and dunked the ball.
With this dunk, his feet perfectly hit Lima's tackle's legs.
Gakpo fell and referee Tim Robinson blew his whistle and pointed to the penalty spot.
Lima got up and didn't have anything to say. No matter how you look at it, the ball was indeed a penalty. Fortunately, the referee didn't draw the card.
Chen Xiaoliang came over and patted Lima, telling him not to care.
The others didn't say anything, as humans will make mistakes. For a ruthless person like Lima, everyone knows that he will try his best to get back in the next game.
Salah stood on the penalty spot. Before facing Manchester United, his penalty kick flew away, but today the Egyptian striker did not make the same mistake again. He pushed the upper left corner of the goal with his left foot. Diao, plus De Gea did not judge the direction, the ball was hit steadily, and the score was tied to 1-1.
Soon after halftime, the two sides returned to their locker rooms calmly.
Judging from the process of the game, both sides have no problems in tactical execution, and even more so in terms of game mentality. Originally, there was no need for any mobilization for a century-old game like the Double Red Club, let alone the fact that it was mixed with Personal vendettas of some players.
Both Ten Hag and Klopp are paying close attention to every second to arrange tactical adjustments for the players in the second half, especially Manchester United. In view of several weaknesses being grabbed by the opponent, he can only directly face the whole team. , explained to Milinkovic, and then replaced him with Timber.
Milinkovic accepted it here, and he himself really felt uncomfortable playing in the first half.
As a hexagonal midfielder, only speed is his weakness, but at the age of 29, he is no longer a young man who is startled and surprised. There are also players like Chen Xiaoliang, Casemiro, and B Fei. As long as the team can win, it is completely acceptable to replace themselves.
On Liverpool's side, Klopp highly praised Barrera's performance, and kept emphasizing the need to improve calm and focus in the second half and continue to speed up.
Back on the field in the second half, Klopp was a little surprised that Ten Hag could replace Milinkovic so decisively.
Compared with Milinkovic, Timber's offensive and long passing abilities are much worse, but his steals and reaction speed are much faster.
Before kick-off in the second half, he kept waving his hands to the stands, indicating that the fans at home should be louder, creating more noise pressure on Manchester United.
"Beep!"
In the second half, when Manchester United kicked off, Sesco pushed the ball to Chen Xiaoliang. After receiving the ball, Chen Xiaoliang did not rush to advance, but waited for his teammates to move forward one after another before starting to act.
McAllister came up to defend, and Chen Xiaoliang dribbled the ball directly to the front left.
Varela also ran over to double-team, Chen Xiaoliang kicked the ball past him and passed it to Kwa on the left.
The two central midfielders were attracted by Chen Xiaoliang, and Kewa received the ball and began to cut inward to the left rib.
Facing Arnold, whether in Rome or Manchester United, he has an excellent one-on-one winning percentage, but at this time, Arnold has Lavia by his side.
Kewa changed direction, and then continued to cut in, Arnold was in charge of the rear, and Lavia came up directly to the body.
Kewa thought to himself: Well, knowing that Arnold can't guard against me, I am here to ambush one.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the position of Chen Xiaoliang, who was running forward, and then stopped cutting in with a feint, and walked to the side again.
Luke Shaw has been asked by Ten Hag not to enter the opponent's offensive third area at will, to ensure that he can defend and return to his position immediately after the offensive and defensive transition, so he is standing about 5 meters past the center line at this time, waiting for Kwa at any time return.
Kewa was reluctant to advance such a long distance, and he had to pass back when he hit the left corner of the penalty area, so he forced Arnold.
But with the help of Lavia, Arnold doesn't have to worry about Kwa shaking, he just needs to block the outside line and firmly block the position to prevent Kwa from passing.
Seeing that he was about to lose the ball again, Kwa passed directly with his left foot, and the ball was blocked by Lavia with his head and went out of the sideline.
At this point, the originally smooth attack became fragmented. Kewa raised his hand and signaled to Chen Xiaoliang, who was in the middle, that he hadn't handled it well.
Luke Shaw came up to throw a sideline ball, and the position behind him was blocked by Casemiro, and Kwa was still surrounded by two people. Luke Shaw had no choice but to throw it back to Casemiro.
Van der Garhe looked at Kwa's performance just now, and said to Ten Hag who was sitting beside him: "He still wants to prove himself too much."
"This season he scored a total of 9 goals and 14 assists. Last season he scored 15 goals and 20 assists in Rome. He is obviously dissatisfied with the decline in his data."
Ten Hag nodded: "23 years old, what should be experienced must be experienced, not everyone is as precocious as him."
The "he" here refers to Chen Xiaoliang, of course.
Casemiro reorganized, Chen Xiaoliang retreated and asked Casemiro for the ball.
Kwa from the left asked for the ball again, but Chen Xiaoliang didn't give it to him. Instead, he took the ball to the right and passed it to B Fei who was on the side.
After the ball was passed, he made a gesture to Kwa to plug in and catch the ball.
Unexpectedly, the gesture was not finished here, but the offensive routine was played out there.
B Fei, who was on the side, received the ball from Chen Xiaoliang. Since he couldn't pass Robertson, he took it to the left rib. Wan Bisaka behind him advanced at full speed, and B Fei pushed the ball to the side. Wan Bisaka After receiving the ball, he kicked up and passed directly.
Everyone knows that his cross is not good, but this pass is really good.
The arc must be arc and the accuracy must be accurate. Relying on his younger body, Sesco forcibly took off before Van Dijk to compete for the top, and the ball was ejected by him in an arc.
The ball was hoisted from the right side of the penalty spot to the left side of the goal. Alisson, who was standing too close to the goal post, failed to catch it in time. Seeing that he was about to score, Gwadiol rushed to the goal line and jumped suddenly. The ball went over the baseline before falling into the goal!
Seeing this scene, Cesko immediately knelt on the ground and covered his face with his hands.
"Beep!" The referee Tim Robinson awarded Manchester United a left corner kick!
Lou Yichen: "Hanging! Almost, even Alisson gave up. I didn't expect Sesco's old teammate, Croatian Guvadior to predict the trajectory of the ball and forcefully make a clearance on the goal line!"
Liu Yue: "The contribution of this goal is no less than that of scoring a goal."
Lou Yichen: "That's right!"
"Luke Shaw came up and took the corner, let's see how it works."
"It seems that Xiao Liang is talking to Cesko."
On the side, the players from both sides are standing. Chen Xiaoliang is standing beside Cesko, and behind him is Kewa. He covers his mouth with his hand and says:
"Don't worry, you two, think about what your opponents are afraid of. One way doesn't always work, so just think about another way. Don't be single-minded to the end. You will encounter hundreds of times during extra training. .”
After finishing speaking, he patted Sesko's butt.
He has a good family background since he was a child, unlike Kwa, who has a very strong obsession with perfection. His character is more open-minded and free-spirited. Playing professional football did not change his family conditions too much. The obsession to achieve class leap is more of pure love.
This also created a character that he doesn't like to fight and grab.
But this does not mean that he does not pursue statistics and victories, defeating more and stronger opponents, of course it means that he has made greater progress in his favorite career.
Driven by this kind of personality, it is difficult for people to see the phenomenon of cutting corners in him, such as "I don't believe it", "I just want to try again", "What I do is my business and you don't need to worry about it" and so on. response.
For this "Liangzi" who had been with him for three years, he had always been in admiration, so what Chen Xiaoliang said just now immediately prompted him to start thinking seriously.
Soon, he made a "three" gesture to Luke Shaw.
Van Dijk in the penalty area immediately yelled, the scouting team had seen this gesture in Manchester United games before!
In the last UEFA Champions League semi-final in which Manchester United reversed Manchester City, Chen Xiaoliang made this gesture, and then passed the ball to the penalty spot.
Van Dijk clung to Sesco, who was standing on the penalty spot, and according to the defensive duties, as long as Chen Xiaoliang entered the penalty area during the set kick attack, Gwadior would be responsible for defending him one-on-one.
When Chen Xiaoliang saw his old teammates, he immediately started talking trash: "Don't bother, when did you beat me?"
Gwadior remained silent, still clinging to Chen Xiaoliang.
Chen Xiaoliang: "Just this intensity? You forgot what you practiced in the extra training?"
Gvardio was still silent.
Chen Xiaoliang: "What? Did you become dumb after going to Liverpool? Or is there no one who loves you? No one loves you, come to Manchester United, I will protect you."
Gwadiol: "What the hell... who told you not to buy me to buy that Shapi Timber."
Gwadiol has always been conceited and arrogant, and his arrogance is not as sullen as that of Kwa, he is aboveboard and awesome. When he was first loaned to Rome, he didn't think about it for a while. Chen Xiaoliang took it seriously.
Timber, who was staying near the center line, sneezed. If it wasn't for the tee shot in the penalty area, Chen Xiaoliang couldn't help laughing.
Chen Xiaoliang: "Sure enough, I miss my brother. Hurry up and submit the transfer application. My brother will buy you in summer."
Gwadior: "Go away."
"Beep!" The whistle sounded over there, and Luke Shaw saw Sesco's gesture and started to run up to kick off.
For a time, there was Chen Xiaoliang on the left side of the penalty spot, Varane on the front point, Sesco on the right side of the penalty point, Kwa at the back point, Casemiro in the small penalty area, and B Fee on the line of the penalty area. It can be said that the left, middle, right, far, middle and near have deployed attacking forces.
The left-footed player takes a left corner kick, and the spin of the ball flies out of the penalty area.
After the ball got up, it first passed the front point, but the height was too high, Varane did not take off, and then came to the front side of the penalty point, the ball fell rapidly, Chen Xiaoliang just carried Gwadiol behind him and took a step forward to take off!
Gwadiol followed closely, and immediately let go of the right hand that was pulling Chen Xiaoliang's jersey, lest the referee's eyes focus on him.
But he didn't take off. He saw the height of the ball, coupled with his understanding of Chen Xiaoliang's tactical habits, he knew that Chen Xiaoliang's take-off was a feint, and it was impossible to hit the ball.
And the team's landing point is behind him, on the penalty spot.
Based on his visual prediction, the ball will not fall too high. Based on his understanding of Sesco's confrontation ability in the penalty area, especially the past of the two in extra training and the league confrontation in the first half of the season , the experienced Van Dijk should be able to easily overwhelm Sesco and destroy the ball.
However, he forgot one thing. He knew Cesco, but Van Dyke didn't. What the former world health guard was still thinking about was the "three" gesture that Sescobi made just now.
Sure enough, the ball did fly to the penalty spot!
His body was pressed against Cesko's back. Although there was no pulling action in his hands, such a confrontational restraint could also make Cesko unable to jump at all, or jump up and not jump high.
In his script, when the ball falls a little further, he will take off with a half-pressed posture on Cesko, and the downward reaction force will further make Cesko lose his ability to compete for the top.
Not surprisingly, an accident happened.
When Van Dyke wanted to jump, he found that he couldn't jump at all!
It turned out that he pressed Sesko's back forward, and Sesko's legs were slightly bent, and he sat halfway back on Van Dyke's lap!
If Van Dijk wanted to take off, he could only retreat, but in this way, not only would there be no time, but he would also give up the stuck position to Sesco.
The falling ball came in an instant, and there was no time for him to adjust. In desperation, Van Dijk could only push forward, trying to break Cesko's balance.
Cesko leaned forward slightly, flicked his head facing the left side of the court, and hit the falling ball accurately on his right forehead.
Although Barrera, who was defending Casemiro in the small penalty area, had already made up for the near post, and Alisson also made a pounce, but no one expected that Van Dijk would attack Cesco's header. The gate failed to make any obvious interference and damage in defense.
This kind of head-shaking attack from a penalty distance, catching the potential energy brought by the ball falling high, flew to the left post very quickly, and then flew into Liverpool's gate!
Lou Yichen: "Oh! This goal has been scored!"
"Van Dyke! I was scolded by McAllister just now, I don't know what's going on this time."
Liu Yue: "The two people should be exerting force on each other to restrain each other's movements. It seems that the position was blocked by Sesco, and Van Dyke couldn't jump up, which caused Sesco to almost stand on the spot and fully adjust his posture. , easily headed the ball in."
Lou Yichen: "Not long after the start of the second half, in the 47th minute, Manchester United rewrote the score again, 1 to 2, leading Liverpool away!"
"Ryoko! Ryoko!"
On the field, Cesko, who was celebrating, saw Chen Xiaoliang coming, and shouted excitedly:
"Sure enough, you're right. I can't handle him by jumping up, so I just won't dance! Haha!"
Chen Xiaoliang also laughed. In fact, what he wanted to say was not what he meant, but he wanted Cesco to hit the ground to outflank the ball more often.
did not expect…
Now that the opportunity to load coins came, he had to finish it with tears in his eyes. He patted Sesko:
"Now that I have the feeling of heading the ball, I can also try to use my feet later to catch them by surprise!"
Cesko: "Haha, oh!"
This time McAllister was also stunned. He was not tall and defended the B fee on the penalty line. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Cesco standing and pushing the ball in...
Alisson spread his hands and looked at Van Dijk speechlessly. He didn't know what happened to this good partner who could guard against everything two or three years ago tonight, or in the past two years.
Gwadiol is also very helpless, but he has not been there long enough, is too young, and does not have the blessing of the World Cup champion or America's Cup champion, otherwise he would like to ask Van Dijk what happened.
But he couldn't switch positions with Van Dijk. Compared with Chen Xiaoliang, a big killer who can score 50 goals in a season, Cesco can only be regarded as a small threat.
If Van Dijk is in today's state to switch defenses, it may be necessary to reproduce the disaster scene of Chen Xiaoliang scoring 5 goals in the last game.
On the sidelines, Klopp crossed his hands on his chest, bowed his head and paced in thought.
Van Dijk is not Milinkovic, he can win if he wins. After Milner and Henderson leave, he is the first captain of the team. Although he no longer has the ability and state of Shi Yiwei, But in most games, he is still a reliable top central defender. In addition, he has worked hard and made great contributions to the team over the years. He needs to maintain it on and off the field, as well as in the locker room.
Even if it really needs to be resolved, it will have to be resolved at the end of the season.
He chose to wait a little longer while letting the French defender Konate start warming up.
But this time, waiting for an unexpected result.
In the 57th minute, Liverpool scored from a corner kick. Alexander-Arnold made a curved kick from the right. After the header bounced from the center, Gwadiol was cleared by Lima, but the ball was not kicked far. top outside catches the ball
Playing very depressed tonight, he lifted his right foot and volleyed. As a result, the ball missed the goal frame, but hit B Fei's open hand impartially.
At that moment, the entire Anfield, from Liverpool fans to Liverpool players, raised their hands.
The referee Tim Robinson didn't dare to be too big. As a rookie with only two and a half years of experience in law enforcement in the Premier League and as the referee in the first season of this season, he chose to go to see VAR.
The result is very clear. B Fei's left hand has indeed left his torso. Although it is not an intentional handball, it is a so-called "ball hitter", but rules are rules.
However, VAR also clearly shows that the handball is inside the top of the arc and outside the penalty area line.
"Beep!"
After he made the VAR gesture, he awarded Liverpool a free kick from the front of the penalty area.
At the beginning of the first half, Arnold almost scored a free kick from almost the same position. This time Arnold and Salah appeared behind the penalty spot at the same time again, and Manchester United formed a 6-man wall to protect the goal.
De Gea kept reminding the wall and paying attention to the changes in the coordination of the opponent's free kick.
But the ball still failed to defend.
Just after the referee blew the whistle and signaled for a free throw, Arnold and Salah didn't move. Instead, Barrera, who was standing behind the two, started to run up, posing like Robert Carlos wanted to hit the goal with heavy artillery.
Sesco, Casemiro, Timbell and others on the human wall quickly turned their heads and covered their chests and crotches, lest their happiness for the rest of their lives be kicked away.
The moment Barrera touched the ball with his right foot, Cesko, who was tallest, jumped slightly.
As a result, Barrera kicked a ground ball, which happened to roll past Sesco's feet.
Everyone was unprepared for this sudden low free kick, and De Gea stood still without making any saves!
Lou Yichen: "2 to 2! The 60th minute! Barrera!"
"Wow, he was very excited. If he didn't get a yellow card for taking off his clothes, it felt like he would tear up his jersey."
Liu Yue: "The red card in the last game, coupled with the 6-0 score, caused him to be warned by a large number of fans, and even death threats. This kind of experience is something he has never encountered in Serie A."
Varela was really excited. While grabbing the Liverpool team logo on his clothes, he ran to the KOP stand with red cheeks and shouted at the diehard Liverpool fans:
"Ah!!! Absolutely won't let them take any point from us!!!"
"Yeah!!! Never!!!"
This kind of key goal made Liverpool fans instantly regard him as a hero, and many burly men from Merseyside shouted at him with blushing faces and thick necks:
"Destroy them!!!"
"England has only a tinge of red!!!"
B Fei was speechless. It is reasonable to say that the ball was his fault, but his teammates didn't blame him.
He actively ran over to block Van Dijk, who would keep his hands close to his body when he was running normally, who would have thought that the guy's footwork was so accurate, he kicked his hands without kicking anything...
It can only be said that it is unlucky to drink cold water and get stuck between the teeth.
Sesco took the initiative to take the blame, telling his teammates that he was not good and that he should not take off.
But again no one blamed him.
Chen Xiaoliang patted him, and while walking towards the middle circle to prepare for the kick-off, he told him that he would pass two more passes to him later.
Cesko: "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Chen Xiaoliang: "Okay."
Not surprisingly, accidents happened again...
Chen Xiaoliang thought that what Cesco said "according to what you said" meant giving him a few more passes and attacking a few times, but Cesco still remembered what Chen Xiaoliang said just now when he accidentally pretended to be successful, "Try with your feet next time." "...
Liverpool hadn't been happy with the equalizer here for long. Six minutes later, that is, in the 6th minute, Manchester United attacked to the right.
This time, B Fei and Chen Xiaoliang switched positions, and Chen Xiaoliang pulled the side to receive a pass from Dalot who replaced Wan Bisaka and rushed forward.
According to Klopp's tactical arrangement, Robertson directly retreated to the penalty area line, and the close defense was handed over to McAllister and Nunes who retreated.
Chen Xiaoliang couldn't completely guard against it, and in that case, he had to focus.
What Klopp set is to prevent breakthroughs but not passes.
Although Chen Xiaoliang's pass is also abnormal, it is still less of a threat than the threat of him rushing into the penalty area and facing the goal. Besides, when the ball is passed, Chen Xiaoliang's threat is gone, and the rest of the shots have to be completed by his teammates. Others defend well, and no matter how good the pass is, it cannot be converted into offense.
It can only be said that Klopp said that he would not take special defense against Chen Xiaoliang, but he still paid too much attention to the Manchester United captain in his heart.
And he may still feel in his heart that he is coaching the former Premier League champions and Champions League champions, forgetting that the team did not even make it to the Champions League last season, let alone the offensive combination he faced, representing Roma last season Won the Triple Crown.
Anyone's success is inseparable from accidental factors, that is, luck, but such a success as the Triple Crown, luck only accounts for a very small part, without the strength to defeat all opponents, no matter how good luck is, it is useless.
I can only blame Chen Xiaoliang for being too dazzling. Anyone who sees a player who can score 50 goals and send 40 assists in a season will have trouble sleeping at night.
Then he couldn't help but focus on him, forgetting how good his teammates are.
Just like Villa next to Messi and Benzema next to Ronaldo.
Chen Xiaoliang leads to the bottom line, McAllister guards the inside line to prevent him from rushing in from the bottom, Nunes blocks his line of cutting inside, but both of them are about 3 meters away from him, resolutely implement the coach's defense against penetration The pass tactic, I wish Chen Xiaoliang could quickly pass the ball close to the right side.
When Chen Xiaoliang saw this posture, he knew what they wanted to do.
I thought: If this is the case, then I will fulfill you.
He aimed at the position of Sesco, who was in excellent form today, and rubbed the ball over.
But after the ball went out, he was also stunned.
He obviously aimed at the place where Cesko was one step ahead, and he passed the ball very accurately. This kind of landing point can allow Cesko to take a step forward to have a run-up, and then take off and use force to form a rush to the top. The strength of the big header.
However, I didn't expect Cesko to face Van Dijk who was defending him, and he did rush forward, but after rushing, he turned his back to the goal...
Beside him, B Fee from the previous point had already feinted and took off, and Gvadio saw that the landing point was not on B Feina, so he also came to help Van Dyke to double-team Cesko, but when he saw Sesco When he turned around, he was also stunned.
"Could it be?! Want a barb?!"
The moment the ball fell, Gwadior suddenly had this idea, but the time was too short, and his body had no time to move.
The next moment, he saw Cesko lift his right leg and use his thigh to pad the falling ball into the air.
"What the hell is this for?!"
This question is no longer posed by Gwadiol alone, it is posed by countless fans, whether on the scene or in front of the TV!
In about half a second, the ball flew up, then reached the highest point, and then fell again.
Van Dijk didn't move, Gwadiol didn't, all the Liverpool players in the box didn't know what was going to happen and didn't move.
Then Cesko fell back, leaned on Van Dijk's chest, lifted his right foot, and kicked the ball towards the goal with a barb shot!
The ball passed over Van Dijk's head and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal!
Alisson made a small jump with both feet. This was the goalkeeper's preparatory action before the side attack, but that was all. What he did afterwards was to turn his head to the left and watch the ball bounce off the bottom of the crossbar and into the goal. !
"Fuck! This kid!"
Chen Xiaoliang grinned and rushed towards Cesko to celebrate.
The Manchester United players on the sidelines all jumped up, Ten Hag got up and hugged his bald head, his mouth was wide open!
Lou Yichen: "Big explosion!!! 2 to 3!"
"Sesco! Score twice! Help Manchester United lead again!"
"Look at the replay! It's done in one go! Talent visible to the naked eye!"
"It's not just the barb that breaks the goal, there's even an action to stop the ball and adjust it before the shot!"
"Van Dijk stood with his hands on his hips and bowed his head helplessly. Today, he seemed to have met his nemesis. He conceded the ball three times, and he hardly made any effective defensive moves!"
Liu Yue: "Except for Xiaoliang's first goal, he really seems to have nothing to do with the last two."
"If I remember correctly, this should be Cesko's 20th goal in all competitions this season. The deal is 5000 million pounds. This deal seems to be really worth it."
Lou Yichen: "Indeed! 14 goals in the league, 1 goal in the FA Cup, 5 goals in the Champions League, according to the current price index of European football, 5000 million pounds to buy a striker who can score 20 goals in a single season is absolutely super. For what it’s worth, not to mention the fact that he’s taking on a lot of containment in the box.”
Cesco ran to the sidelines, and the Manchester United substitutes rushed to surround him to celebrate. After cheering, Cesco gave Chen Xiaoliang a high-five again:
"Ryoko! Your idea is really good!"
"Sure enough, as soon as they use their feet, they will be caught off guard!"
"Made, Ryoko, you are so awesome, we will all lose our jobs if you play as a striker."
Chen Xiaoliang thought to himself: "This kid is in such a good state today, I should have told him to use his butt just now..."
Cesko: "Ryoko, I seem to be in good shape today. I'll pass two more passes later. Where do you think I should shoot?"
Chen Xiaoliang: "You..."
He really wanted to say use his butt, but at this moment the two were close to the arc of the middle circle, and Nunes and Jacques, who were about to kick off, turned to look at them.
Chen Xiaoliang cleared his throat with a "cough cough", pretending to be mysterious: "Remember, let your opponent be caught off guard. You are in good shape today. Try to score goals in ways that your opponent can't think of."
Cesko: "Okay!"
