Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 210 The Windy First Play (Thank you for listening...another monthly pass)
At the start of the first half, Liverpool served first. The three midfielders led by Zhang Mai overwhelmed the middle and long lines.

Subsequent game scenes also proved that Liverpool preemptively controlled the rhythm of the game.

In the 6th minute, Chamberlain made a diagonal pass from the right, and Wijnaldum missed the goal with a header from 10 yards.

In the 10th minute, Zhang Mai took a corner kick and Van Dijk missed the goal with a header.

A few minutes later, Zhang Mai passed the ball through the middle, and Chamberlain stopped the ball on the edge of the penalty area and missed the shot.

Liverpool's wing attack also began to work. Arnold broke through Mawson and crossed from the right side of the penalty area, but Mane's barb shot was over.

This wave of lightning fast breaks at Liverpool's opening made the Swansea starting lineup, which is composed of veteran players who have been in the Premier League for many years, exhausted.

"Brothers! Resist the opening three tricks of these little brats. If they can't score a goal, they will stop."

Swansea captain Tom Carroll, 35, cheered his team-mates loudly.

But Liverpool's youth storm will never stop for a while, and the two young wingers who have adapted to the fast pace of the Red Army run more happily.

Liverpool almost scored in the 20th minute. Robertson made a pass from the left. Mane's pass from the left side of the penalty area was deflected on the opponent's defender's leg and then hit the near corner post.

Not long after, Zhang Mai passed the ball to Firmino, and Federico made a key interception, which made the Brazilian striker, who had started a step slower, return without success.

In the 28th minute, Firmino missed Wijnaldum's oblique pass, followed by Chamberlain's shot from the edge of the penalty area and was blocked by Swansea defender Mawson with his body, but Mbappe who inserted on the right got the ball After a fake shot and a real pass, the pick ball was given to Arnold who was on the right side of the penalty area, and then Arnold's volley broke Swansea's goal.

1-0!Arnold, one of Liverpool's "three", scored his first goal in the Premier League, and the Liverpool youth team temporarily led their opponents by one goal.

The ecstatic Liverpool No. 66 flew all the way to the bench and hugged everyone he saw to celebrate, and finally hugged Klopp, laughing and crying.

"Arnold, you are the best!"

Uncle Zha was as excited as Arnold who scored the goal. The two hugged and circled together and cried together.

Moments of joy are always short-lived, and the referee reminded Liverpool with a sharp whistle that the game is still in progress.

The game restarted, and the offensive of the Liverpool youth army remained unabated, which made the Swansea players complain.

"Made, these Liverpool boys have given their blood, this nima can run faster!"

More than one or two Swansea players have this idea, but the game has to continue...

In the 41st minute, Robertson, who dribbled the ball to the left side of the penalty area, and Firmino in the middle made a wall-hitting cooperation, cut inside to the front of the penalty area and kicked a diagonal pass, and Zhang Mai, who sprinted from the right, overwhelmed the Swansea defender Fei Derico's header made it 2-0.

After Zhang Mai scored the goal, he rushed to Robertson who was assisting. The two made a gesture of raising their palms and ears together, which aroused even greater cheers from the Red Army fans in the stands.

Before halftime, the Red Army had another chance to expand the score. This time, Mbappe made a pass from the right, but Firmino, who followed up in the center, missed the goal with a header.

Until the end of the first half, the score remained at 2-0. Swansea, who was fully defending, did not have a single shot, and it was even difficult to break into Liverpool's penalty area.

During the intermission, Uncle Zha praised Arnold who scored goals and Robertson who fed bread many times. At the same time, he also encouraged goalkeeper Pickford who was almost unemployed in the first half.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, neither team made personnel adjustments, but the fighting spirit of the Swansea players was obviously strengthened a lot.

Liverpool's two wings are still happily busy with assists, and Swansea, who has accelerated the passing speed, began to specifically play the space left by Liverpool's two sides.

With the acceleration of Swansea's counterattack, Van Dijk and Chamberlain's defensive pressure in the center increased, and the hidden danger of the Red Army's excessive assists on the wing gradually emerged.

In the 54th minute, Fell went down the right, and Lovren, who was supplementing the defense, knocked the ball out of the bottom line. Swansea won the first corner kick in the second half.

Tom Carroll sent a right corner, Federico header from 12 yards in the melee in the penalty area, Routledge blocked it from close range, Llorente stabbed the first time, Pique Ford blocks out of bounds with his thigh.

Swansea got another chance in the 62nd minute. Tom Carroll made a cross from the left. Llorente headed the goal in front of the small penalty area. The ball hit Pickford's hand and hit the post.

1-2!Swansea pulled back a goal in the 62nd minute, and Klopp began to yell at the two full-backs on the sidelines to pay attention to returning to defense.

Both Arnold and Robertson looked at Zhang Mai, who pointed at the gate of Swansea with his finger, and nodded quietly.

In the 69th minute, what Zhang Mai promised to do finally came. This time it was Chamberlain's precise oblique pass. Mane made a pass from the left. Zhang Mai in the middle beat Olsen from 8 yards and scored again with a header.

3-1!Liverpool extended its lead to two goals again, and Zhang Mai also scored twice with a personal header.

The Swansea players were not discouraged by the widening score gap again, and still insisted on their own defensive counterattack tactics.

In the 75th minute, it was another quick counterattack from Swansea. Van Dijk almost received a second yellow card for a foul on Llorente.

Tom Carroll's free kick sent Liverpool's penalty area into chaos, and Mawson's header from the corner kick just wide of the back corner.

Then Liverpool attacked quickly, Wijnaldum made a pass from the left, Firmino stopped the ball from the chest at 12 yards and then volleyed vigorously with his left foot. The ball hit the goalkeeper Fabianski except for the bottom line.

In the 80th minute, Mbappe broke through and made a cross. Zhang Mai followed up with a header from the center to ferry. Robertson from the left rushed to the goal with a header, but Fabianski blocked it in time.

Swansea got another chance in the 84th minute. Tom Carroll broke into the penalty area and was barely shoveled out by Lovren. Sigurdson followed up from the left and scored a low shot from 8 yards into the net.

2-3!Swansea pulled one back again to bring the deficit back to a goal.

This goal allowed the Swansea players to see the hope of taking away 1 point, which aroused their strong desire to attack.

Zhang Mai was taken aback by the perseverance of the Swansea players, and felt that the best respect for Swansea was to score another goal to defeat them.

In the 86th minute, Chamberlain's long-range shot from 30 yards was saved by Fabianski, and Liverpool won the fifth corner kick in the second half.

Robertson sent a corner kick from the left, the penalty area was chaotic, Swansea goalkeeper Fabianski saved the ball, Mbappe managed to sneak a shot in the crowded wicket, and the ball went through the gap and into the Swansea goal .

4-2!Mbappe's clever shot helped Liverpool seal the victory of the game.

The French boy folded his arms arrogantly on the sidelines to accept the cheers of the Red Army fans, while the visiting team players who fought fiercely for most of the time were quite frustrated.

Liverpool still had a chance to expand the winning result at the last moment of the game. In the 93rd minute, Wijnaldum's shot from the left side of the penalty area was deflected and then hit the upper edge of the crossbar and rebounded. Mane hooked the ball back into the penalty area. Firmino The header from 10 yards is slightly higher.

Four minutes into stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. Liverpool finally defeated Swansea who came to challenge 4-4.

Liverpool continues to remain unbeaten at home in 18 rounds of the league, continuing the legend of Anfield Stadium. If Zhang Mai remembers correctly, Liverpool will maintain this glory until the 3-2019 season three years later.

If this is the case, it is a terrifying statistic. The Red Army will remain unbeaten at Anfield for more than 70 games, spanning four years and more than 1000 days.

The victory in this round allowed Liverpool to continue to lead the Premier League standings with 60 points, and firmly grasped the 2-point advantage over No.5 Chelsea, which defeated Hull City in this round.

Zhang Mai also continues to dominate the scorer and assists list with 29 goals and 17 assists, which complements Liverpool's dominance in the league.
