Chapter 826

In the 75th minute, Manchester United made a second adjustment, replacing Herrera with Darren Fletcher, who had returned from injury.

At the same time, Liverpool ran out of substitutions, and Emre Can replaced the captain Gerrard, who was about to be physically exhausted. In fact, this season, the midfielder position is shared by the German and the Jie team.

"Don't worry!" Sun Wu yelled at Lukaku, Mane, and Griezmann in front, and at the same time made a tactical gesture of slightly retreating.

Klopp, his tactical style is in line with his personal characteristics. Whether in Dortmund or Liverpool, he often scores consecutive goals in a short period of time.

When the opponent concedes a goal and tries to strengthen the attack, they will suddenly press up, use high pressing to mess up the opponent's backcourt, and then take the opportunity to score the second goal, the third goal...

Seeing that Emre Can replaced Gerrard, Sun Wu knew what Klopp wanted to do.

"Liverpool is going to chase after the victory." Zhan Jun was a little tangled in his heart. "In terms of the number of goals scored this season, Manchester City ranked first, Liverpool second, and Manchester United only fourth."

"Liverpool wants to press high and score another goal. If the score is extended to 3 to 1, Manchester United will be in trouble..." Zhang Lu made no secret of his tendency, "Manchester United recovered, but the recovery rate is not particularly large."

Pochettino stared at the situation on the field, and his eyes were attracted by the figure of No. 7 who kept running from time to time. It was up to Sun Wu whether he could pull it back.

Fletcher, who came off the bench, is much more reliable defensively than Herrera. He and Schneiderlin's horizontal sweep in the midfield made it difficult for Liverpool's offense to make progress. Shinji Kagawa, Coutinho, Di Maria Was intercepted a few times.

But Sun Wu's counterattack failed to deliver the ball to the frontcourt smoothly. Emre Can, who is physically fit, has a strong ability to run back and forth. Henderson stuck to Sun Wu again, fouling Manchester United twice in a row. The counterattack was killed in the cradle.

Sun Wu wiped the sweat from his head. He knew he had to change his method. Henderson behind him was like a brown candy, and he was not afraid of the referee not far away. He was almost wiped by Sun Wu twice and used foul tactics immediately. , and today's referee also has a certain tendency in the penalty... Sun Wu has nothing to say about this, this is Anfield, Liverpool's home court.

In the 81st minute, De Gea made another key save. He barely blocked Emre Can's long-range volley. The ball bounced off Firmino's calf and De Gea pressed him first again.

Lying on the ground to catch his breath, De Gea suddenly got up quickly after looking left and right. Although Firmino immediately came over to block him, the Spanish goalkeeper still threw the ball and launched a fast break.

At the moment when the ball was thrown out of the penalty area, Sun Wu quickened his pace, and Henderson followed behind him, but soon Henderson stopped... The ball was thrown to Mane on the right, and Sun Wu It is moving to the left.

"Manchester United's counterattack..." Zhang Lu said loudly: "No foul, no foul!"

Griezmann shouldered Moreno, who was grabbing up, and the latter fell down. Griezmann, who let the ball pass, accelerated and grabbed the ball back before it went out of bounds.

The referee shook his head and crossed his hands to indicate that it was not a foul, and there were boos again from the KOP stands.

"Griezmann! Go!" Zhang Lu couldn't help shouting.

But Griezmann, who saved the ball from the touchline, did not accelerate. He sent a through pass, and it was actually Mane who received the ball.

The movement of Manchester United's offensive players this time is very interesting. When Griezmann got the ball on the right, Mane cut in from the other wing at high speed. He took Piszczek and ran and ran... ... Piszczek complained in his heart, and almost ran to the right!

"Mane... feint... smash... Sun Wu!"

"Shoot... nice pass... Lukaku shoots!"

"And there's... Fletcher!"

"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Hart!"

Mane, Lukaku and Fletcher all watched the ball fly out of the baseline in despair, so they can block it like this!
Mane sent a return pass from the right side of the penalty area, and Sun Wu, who briefly shook off Henderson, made a fake shot directly, just in time to dunk Lovren in front of him and Henderson who came from the flying tackle, and then He took a step forward and poked a pass with his toe, and Lukaku got a shot on the left side of the penalty area.

But Joe Hart blocked Lukaku's shot with his body... Fletcher, who then rushed into the penalty area to play the role of the second wave of attack, took advantage of the momentum to head the ball, but Joe Hart dived and the ball hit him On the face... Lovren kicked the ball out of the baseline with a big kick.

Sun Wu was also a little desperate, he really had nothing to do with this kind of goalkeeper, he had already sent the ball near the small penalty area line, and he still couldn't break the goal!

Everything was done perfectly before, Lukaku and Fletcher's shots were fine, but Joe Hart was able to save it... Sun Wu watched the Liverpool players rushing one by one to embrace Joe Hart Celebrating, I really feel bad.

On the other hand, Klopp on the sidelines did not celebrate. He frowned and looked up at the big screen, where Manchester United's attack just now was being played back.

Mane's running position was an accident, Griezmann's foul on Moreno was also an accident, Sun Wu dunked Lovren, Henderson... Well, this is not an accident, but, in Lucca After Ku's shot was saved, Fletcher who appeared in the penalty area was an accident.

Klopp looked down and looked back, as if when Coutinho scored, when he was running to celebrate...Best was talking to Pochettino.

Compared with Herrera, Fletcher's organization, passing, and coordination skills are much inferior, but the Scot's defense is better, and he is more determined when going forward. He has a strong back row some ability.

Klopp made an accurate judgment. This is an adjustment from Sun Wu. Although Manchester United recovered their defense, the rate of recovery was not large, and they were waiting for this opportunity.

High pressing and high pressing cannot occur at the same time.

But high pressing and pressing defense can happen at the same time, because they can play in the same half.

Both sides are unwilling to hold the ball for a long time. As far as the current situation is concerned, the possession rate is harmful to them.

Liverpool hopes to launch an attack on the spot after a high-position steal and steal the ball to expand their lead as soon as possible, while Manchester United hopes to use oppressive defensive steals to penetrate Liverpool's back.

The two combos just now are an example. The oppressive defense means that the formation is not highly compressed, and it also means that the midfielder has time to sprint at high speed to act as the terminator of the second wave of attack.

Fletcher, who was determined to move forward, almost played the terminator.

Seeing this, Klopp calmed down, Joe Hart was like a god of war today, and De Gea was not bad at all, and he even saved a penalty.

"Liverpool took back the defense." Zhan Jun was a little surprised, "Is it because you can't hold on physically?"

"There are still about seven or eight minutes, plus about 8 minutes of stoppage time." Zhang Lu smacked his lips, "Liverpool wants to keep the score... Oh, this is a serious foul!"

"Wow, Moreno has a yellow card!"

After Matip cleared the corner kick out of the penalty area, the Liverpool players were walking forward. Moreno, who was a little weak in tactics, was a step slower. Rencia.

"Two yellows turned into one red, and Moreno was sent off." Mortensen said with a smile: "Now 11 to 10, let's see if Manchester United can create a miracle!"

For Moreno's end, Klopp was obviously mentally prepared. He immediately commanded Di Maria to retreat and defend. In addition, Firmino, Kagawa Shinji, and Coutinho all retreated to try to defend the 2-1. score.

Seeing the dense crowd in front of him, Sun Wu felt that he should do something special, otherwise there would be no hope at all.

After being knocked down again by Coutinho, who scored twice today, Sun Wu felt that those special things did not necessarily need to be done by himself.

His eyes fell on Schneiderlin.
