Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 163 Season Opener
During the intermission, Klopp made personnel adjustments in the locker room. No. 11 Firmino was replaced by Zhang Mai, and captain Henderson was also replaced by Chamberlain.

Firmino, who was sweating profusely, felt a little wronged:

It's not my fault that the team fell behind, so what can I do as a striker?
"Roberto, you had a great time with Coutinho in the first half, how many times did you cooperate with others?"

The fellow and substitute No. 21 Lucas on the side reminded softly, bringing Firmino back to his senses.

I follow the old habits and cooperate with Coutinho to my heart's content, and I have long forgotten that there are two rookie wingers!

Depend on!Unintentionally became Coutinho's accomplice, no wonder Klopp took the knife on himself!

"Then the culprit that caused the team to fall behind?"

Firmino looked at Coutinho who was resting on the chair with his eyes closed as if nothing had happened.
What will Klopp do to him?
"Zhang Mai is on the field. If Philippe doesn't change, I'm afraid he will be replaced. Wait and see how I play on the field."

On the 21st, Lucas once again answered Firmino's question.

Firmino looked again and only Lucas was left as a midfield substitute. Well, I understand, there is nothing wrong with what he said as a hardcore fellow.

At the beginning of the second half, the two teams changed sides and fought again. This time it was Liverpool who kicked off.

Zhang Mai turned around and rushed to Arsenal's backcourt after serving the ball back in the arc in the middle circle, and the three arrows formed with Mane and Mbappe went straight into the opponent's heart.

However, there was no movement at the back. Coutinho and the midfielder played a pass-and-receive cooperation at the back, and the ball was still wandering around the midfield.

"Damn! Now it's not Liverpool leading by two goals, Coutinho is playing with fire!"

Zhang Mai looked towards Liverpool's coaching area, and Klopp was yelling from the sidelines.

Perhaps because he couldn't withstand Uncle Scum's Thunderbolt, Coutinho began to dribble the ball forward, ignoring his team's wingers who came up to meet him on both sides, and started his personal midfield breakthrough show.

Arsenal's Coquelin and No. 8 Ramsey immediately made a pincer attack, quickly broke Coutinho's ball, and immediately started a counterattack.

Ramsey sent a straight kick to Sanchez in front of him. The Chilean striker quickly passed back from the bottom. No. 17 Iwobi shot the ball from behind. The ball passed between Mignolet and entered the upper left of the goal horn.

Only 3 minutes into the second half, Arsenal scored another goal to lead Liverpool 3-0!
The Gunners fans in the audience rejoiced again, and Crote, who couldn't bear it, immediately replaced Coutinho with No. 21 Lucas.

"Lucas, let's change positions at any time. As soon as I retreat to the midfield, you immediately go to the middle."

Seeing that Coutinho, the veteran driver of the overturned car, was off the field, Zhang Mai hurried to find Lucas.

"OK, I understand, it's like a team training game."

Lucas returned a gesture of getting it done, and took the initiative to run to the middle circle to serve the ball.

Zhang Mai, who was three goals behind at the start, led Liverpool to start a Jedi counterattack.

Zhang Mai retreated, driving Arsenal's central defender up, and at the same time lengthening the defensive depth of the flanks on both sides, Mane and Mbappe immediately had a place to play.

In the 49th minute, Liverpool attacked from the left. Lucas made a pass from the left. Mane picked a pass from the left to the penalty area. ball!
There were boos from the auditorium, which quickly covered the cheers of the few Red Army fans, but the morale of the Liverpool players on the field was obviously improved.

"Zhang Mai scored in less than 5 minutes on the field. This goal blew the clarion call for Liverpool's counterattack!"

Huang Tao, who was depressed for most of the half, finally looked forward to Zhang Mai's goal.

"Hey! It's interesting. Once Coutinho came off the field, Liverpool's midfield came alive. The combination of goals from the side and the center is really refreshing."

Zhan Jun argues that Coutinho is redundant from a technical point of view.

Continued kick-off, Liverpool's morale soared, and soon intercepted the pass from Arsenal midfielder Coquelin.

Zhang Mai and Lucas changed positions quietly, and soon appeared beside Coquelin. Coquelin had just received the ball from Ramsey, and he was a little dazed when he saw Zhang Mai suddenly appearing in front of him.

This script is not right!Why did you, a tall and powerful center, come back to the midfield to press?
Where is Lucas?At a glance, the small Brazilian midfielder ran to the front center.

Frightened by Zhang Maijiwei, the French midfielder hurriedly took the ball, and was easily intercepted by Liverpool midfielder Chamberlain in a panic.

After Chamberlain got the ball, he immediately passed it diagonally to the right. After getting the ball from the right, Mbappe made a pass from the bottom to Monreal.

In the 56th minute, Liverpool pulled back a goal again, temporarily trailing Arsenal 2-3!
The audience booed again, and Lucas, who has been difficult to score as a substitute for many years, was ecstatic and busy somersaulting near the corner kick.

"Liverpool scored again. Zhang Mai turned to midfield and caused an Arsenal player's mistake. Liverpool scored two goals in just 7 minutes!"

The happy batting rhythm is simply not too exciting, at least Huang Tao can't stop at this time.

"Bingo, Zhang Mai's retracement has improved Liverpool's midfield hardness by more than one level, and some of the softer Arsenal midfielders have suffered."

The technical Zhan Jun can always raise Zhang Mai's contribution to a theoretical level.

After leading by a big score, they were chased by their opponents. A bit frustrated, Arsenal could not parry the Red Army with rising morale. Liverpool continued to exert full pressure on their opponents.

In the 57th minute, Zhang Mai and Mbappe switched positions and knocked across the right. Lucas's low shot from the center was blocked by Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech. Mbappe followed up with another shot and was caught by Petr Cech again. Block out;

In the 59th minute, Iwobi was injured in the fight with Zhang Mai and was replaced by Xhaka (£3400 million), Arsenal's first signing this summer. Two minutes later, Ramsey collided with Chamberlain and was also injured. Arsenal Forced to replace Cazorla.

In the 63rd minute, Mane dribbled the ball from the right and cut into the penalty area. He made a precise wall-slamming cooperation with Zhang Mai in the middle and then got rid of the defense. He volleyed with his left foot and scored. Liverpool drew 3-3 with Arsenal!
Mane, who scored the Red Army's first Premier League goal, first kissed the lawn, and then rushed all the way to the sidelines to hug and celebrate with Klopp.

This time the Gunners fans stopped booing, and simply sent a lot of curses to the master and apprentice who hugged on the sidelines.

"I can understand Mane's excitement, but what is your scumbag's enthusiasm on the sidelines all the time? Are you earning love and greetings from the away fans?"

Although Zhang Mai knew that flirtatious sex was the usual standard for Uncle Zha on the sidelines, he still couldn't help but complain.

Arsenal kicked off the arc for the third time, and Liverpool players rushed up aggressively, as if they were going to win the away game.

In the 64th minute, the murderous Chamberlain didn't give face to his old club anymore. The big man with a face made a breakthrough with the ball on the left. A sound of exclamation.

The Arsenal players were stimulated by Chamberlain's almost killing of the old owner, and desperately launched a counterattack.

In the 72nd minute, Arsenal's Cazorla exploded at the top of the arc and went over the crossbar.

In the 75th minute, Arsenal took a free kick from the left to the penalty area, and Chambers' header from the middle was slightly above the crossbar.

In the 77th minute, Xhaka took the ball from the outside and gave it to Cazorla. Cazorla picked a pass to the penalty area and Sanchez was offside first.

In the 84th minute, Wijnaldum crossed Zhang Mai, Zhang Mai volleyed vigorously on the crossbar and bounced to the right. Mbappe threw off the defender and made a supplementary shot in front of the right post. Petr Cech, who fell in the middle of the goal line, was beyond reach.

4-3!Mbappe's goal gave Liverpool a one-goal lead over hosts Arsenal with just minutes remaining in regulation.

The excited French boy ran over and hugged Zhang Mai to celebrate, causing countless boos on the field, and the occasional curses were obviously more aimed at the players of the home team.

"4-3! Liverpool successfully reversed the home team in the 85th minute of the game, and it was Zhang Mai's indirect assist!"

Huang Tao is about to become "Zhang Maichui".

"Well! That's right, you can see Zhang Mai everywhere, and you can't see Zhang Mai without the ball!"

Zhan Jun blindly pandered abnormally.

In the rest of the game, the reversed Arsenal players seemed to have lost their fighting spirit, but the visiting team was still struggling to chase.

In the 85th minute, Moreno made a long pass and Mane was offside first;
In the 92nd minute, Chamberlain got the ball from the left again and was blocked by Holding from the bottom line.

In the 95th minute, the game ended and Arsenal lost 3-4 at home to Liverpool.
