1323 Take Advantage

PS. Here is today’s update. By the way, I want to vote for the 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 tickets, and votes will give you coins. I beg everyone to support and appreciate!

When the players of the two teams stood on the court and prepared to kick off, the generals of Liverpool looked solemn. Not only are they not afraid of any opponents, but they also hope to maintain their state through high-level games.

"Welcome to Liverpool's Anfield Stadium, where the 32nd round of the Premier League is underway.

The defending champion Liverpool sits at home and ushered in Manchester City, which has risen strongly in the past two seasons.

After seeing today's starting list, can we say that Koeman intends to target Manchester City today? "

After Martin Taylor finished speaking, Liverpool star McManaman immediately interfaced in the live broadcast room: "Of course! Liverpool won the Premier League last season. It is only a matter of time before they successfully defend the title this season, but Manchester City's progress this season is very obvious. They Starting to compete for the Champions League seat, what about next season? Is Manchester City going to participate in the championship?

In this context, if Liverpool is under pressure in the two-line battle, it is understandable that Koeman has reservations about this game, and the fans will also understand the team's situation, but three days ago, when Liverpool 6:1 After slaughtering Shakhtar Donetsk, it is almost certain to break into the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. Manchester City, sorry, Liverpool must show the demeanor and posture of a champion at this time, telling them that they want to compete for the championship in the future?Don't think too much about it, first of all you have to pay more for the Champions League qualification this season. "

"I agree with McManaman that Koeman is not deliberately targeting Manchester City. For any championship team, they will not take it lightly when facing current or well-known potential competitors. They will go all out. Going to suppress the opponent's momentum and fighting spirit, it is difficult for us to say how much a game will cause Manchester City. But it may have unexpected effects. Liverpool wants to win, let Manchester City go back to Manchester in disgrace, and then continue to struggle. Fighting for the top four, that's what Koeman wants."

"Hehe, both McManaman and Gray have analyzed Liverpool's intentions in this game for us. I believe Manchester City also understand their situation. At the end of the season, every game is a key battle. No.4 and No. The gap of 5 is not as simple as it seems. If there is no Champions League, whether Manchester City can attract high-level players will be a huge doubt, which will inevitably bring difficulties to their summer transfers.

alright.Let's take a look at the starting roster of the double hair.

Liverpool's starting lineup here is 442.

Goalkeeper: Reina.

Defenders: Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Baines.

Midfield: Gerrard, Mascherano, Alonso, Meireles.

Forward: Suarez.Qin Xiong.

Raul, who played in the Champions League in the middle of the week, sat on the bench. Although Raul is in good form, it is an indisputable fact that he is too old. Continuous combat requires too much physical fitness.He could be forgiven for not being in the starting lineup.

Manchester City starting 4231.

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart.

Defenders: Boyata, Kompany, Lescott, Kolarov.

Midfield: Milner, Barry, Tevez, Yaya Toure.Adam Johnson.

Forward: Dzeko.

The starting players of the two teams have completed the kick-off ceremony, and the game will start soon! "

With the whistle of the referee, the match between Liverpool and Manchester City began.

The cheering momentum of Liverpool fans in the stands was extremely magnificent.Everyone is looking forward to the Red Army beating Manchester City at home.

After the game started, Manchester City put on a clear offensive stance.Raised the pace of the game faster than Liverpool.

Liverpool, on the other hand, appeared to be stable and stable, with their formation shrinking backwards and a dense defensive posture in the midfield.

After seeing Liverpool's formation, Mancini, who was sitting on the coach's bench, frowned slightly.

Koeman stood on the sidelines calmly, not nervous at all.

Mancini is a bit confused now whether Liverpool, which dispatched the strongest lineup, chose to defend and counterattack because of the exhaustion of their energy in the midweek Champions League battle, or whether they have a bigger plan.

What Koeman thinks in his heart is simple: Liverpool has an advantage in the standings, so they must take advantage of this advantage.

Isn't Manchester City going to fight for four?Don't want points?

Then coming to Anfield will definitely not be too conservative.

It's just that to Koeman's surprise, Manchester City is not only unconservative, but even a little radical.

Right in the middle!

Tevez played shadow forward today, and the quality of the attack in the middle has declined, mainly relying on Milner and rising star Adam Johnson to push the attack forward on the two sides.

But on Liverpool's side, Gerrard and Meireles assisted in defending the wing, plus the zone defense of the two full-backs, repeatedly strangled Manchester City's offense in a dead end.

After all, Milner and Johnson are not breakthrough experts, and it is not enough to penetrate Liverpool's defense by themselves.

In this way, Yaya Toure has to follow up and press up in the middle to play the effect of combining the side and the center, and the full-backs must also rush up to support, so that Manchester City's offensive point has more support options in the frontcourt.

The first 10 minutes of the game were somewhat stalemate. Both teams were using fouls to contain their opponents. Manchester City knew that Liverpool was more powerful in counterattacks, so they did not dare to let Liverpool play a whirlwind.

In the 12th minute of the game, when Baines cut off the ball at Milner's feet in the backcourt, Liverpool's counterattack storm blew up.

Baines' extremely admirable way of handling the ball is to divert the ball wide to the right.

Johnson followed up and pushed forward the offensive, which suddenly made it too late for Manchester City to counter-rob or foul on the spot.

Johnson played a one-on-two with Gerrard as he pushed forward, blasting past his namesake Adam Johnson before striding his way up the pitch.

Suarez started running forward in front of the penalty area, always ready to counter-offside.

After pushing the attack to the danger zone, Johnson crossed the ball to the feet of Gerrard, who was also running up.

Yaya Toure followed up to defend, and Barry was also approaching Gerrard.

At this time, Gerrard saw that there was space in the middle, Meirelles inserted from the back, and he decisively passed the ball across.

Meirelles received the ball from a distance of [-] yards and it was a long shot!

The quality of his shot was not high. A half-high ball was blocked by Kompany, and the blocked football flew out diagonally.

It happened to be obtained by Qin Xiong who cut in from the left outside the penalty area.

After Qin Xiong stopped the ball, he rushed directly into the penalty area. Lescott went to mark Suarez before. Kompany just blocked a shot. He rushed to force Qin Xiong directly, and Qin Xiong changed direction and accelerated. After breaking through and throwing Kompany away, he cut into the penalty area!

Facing goalkeeper Hart, Qin Xiong blasted the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!

The Manchester City generals instantly felt as if they had encountered a bolt from the blue!
