Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 297

The game continued in the second half, and the two teams were still on the field.

Not long after the two teams played, Liverpool has obviously changed, the personnel and formation have not changed, the possession of the ball has decreased, but the opportunities have increased.

In the 48th minute, Zhang Mai dribbled the ball to the right in the middle, attracting Ashley Young to defend. Salah on the right had a chance, got the ball and was knocked out by the defender.

Zhang Mai then took a corner kick, and Van Dijk's header from the edge of the small penalty area was slightly higher.

In the 54th minute, Zhang Mai, who was blocked from a breakthrough in the middle, returned a pass to Firmino, who picked a pass into the penalty area. Salah stopped the ball poorly and missed the opportunity under the interference of Ashley Young's defense.

Liverpool got opportunities one after another, but Manchester United's offense encountered difficulties. If the Red Army's two wings did not step forward to assist, Manchester United's wingers would not be able to get in.

In the next 10 minutes, Liverpool got some chances, and both Mane and Chamberlain's outside shots were blocked.

In the 65th minute, Robertson made a pass from the left side of the penalty area. Valencia was not punished for a suspected handball foul. Mourinho on the sidelines was a little restless.

In the 68th minute, Zhang Mai split the side in the middle again, Mane passed the ball from the left, and Milner volleyed slightly wide from 25 yards.

In the 70th minute, when Mourinho was still hesitating, Liverpool pulled back another victory.

Zhang Mai's dribbling on the left side of the middle road attracted Valencia to intercept. Zhang Mai then went straight to the left, and Mane, who inserted at high speed from behind, made a pass from the left. Bailey made a careless clearance. Since he scored an own goal and entered the near corner, De Gea was helpless no matter how brave he was.

2-2.This is the 58th time Liverpool have benefited from an own goal in the Premier League, only less than Manchester United's 67 times.

In the 72nd minute, Mourinho finally started to adjust personnel. Rashford was replaced by Fellaini. Booed Mourinho who decided to make a substitution.

Mourinho was suffering on the sidelines and couldn't tell. In the first half, the tactical opponent succeeded in a surprise attack. Unfortunately, Liverpool quickly reacted and made tactical adjustments during the intermission.

You didn't see that in the second half, Manchester United dominated possession but had no offense. Sanchez and Lukaku seemed to be invisible, and four or five people in the midfield and back line were led away by Zhang Mai.

Rashford, who had no attention in the first half, was also watched to death, and the young man was not good at defending, so if he stayed on the court, he might lose the ball.

Although Fellaini can't attack well, he has a good defensive attitude. His tireless running can set up a tall defensive screen in the middle and limit Zhang Mai's overturning in the middle.

After Fellaini played, he really kept running with Zhang Mai, and soon saved Manchester United's defensive strength in the midfield and back line, and Liverpool's offensive momentum gradually slowed down.

At the last moment of the game, the offense of the two sides suffered a lot. On the contrary, the confrontation in the midfield escalated, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger.

In the 88th minute, seeing that the situation on the field was stable, Klopp replaced Arnold and Mane with Wijnaldum and Solanke.

At the end of the final game, Liverpool drew 2-2 away with Manchester United and failed to take all 3 points at Old Trafford.

Soon the results of other games in the 30th round came out. Manchester City won 2-0 away from Stoke City, and Silva scored twice.

After this round, Manchester City surpassed Liverpool by 2 points and jumped to the top of the league table. They have a faint momentum of overtaking Liverpool in both the league and the Champions League.

Zhang Mai learned a lot in this game, and Klopp's "high position pressing made a miracle" was almost cheated by Mourinho's wily calculations.

Judging from this bloody bayonet game, Mourinho made a lot of targeted arrangements in advance, and the tactics of the whole game were flexible and changeable, and the on-the-spot adjustments to keep the tie in the end were also very timely.

In this game, Manchester United's first goal came from Lukaku's assist, and the Red Army gave up the ball in the first point of contention.

Then facing Rashford's breakthrough, the Red Army's 19-year-old right back Arnold showed his inexperience. He was shaken by Rashford's fake action for nearly 2 meters, and the latter then shot through the net.

For the second goal, the Red Army made a fatal clearance not far from the penalty area. The ball was once again seized by Rashford. This time, the unguarded Manchester United teenager easily scored.

The Red Army's defense has become stronger after the introduction of Van Dijk and Maguire, but the strength of the team's main players and rotation players is too far apart.Today still allowed Lukaku to win consecutive headers, and the two confrontations between Lovren and Lukaku were also won by the Manchester United striker.

There are also Liverpool's two young wings. Although they are growing well, they still need to pay a price. The good news is that the growth rate of Arnold and Robertson can fully keep up with Liverpool's progress.

Liverpool's response today was fairly timely. They adjusted their offensive direction in time when the two sides were locked, and finally equalized the score. Unfortunately, Wood Bird's response speed was not slow.

It can be said that Mourinho's battle with Klopp was basically tied, and the final score is the best explanation.

With only 8 rounds left in the Premier League, if Liverpool want to compete for the championship on two fronts, Klopp still needs to work harder on the team's defense.

Some critics say that Mourinho's tactics are actually outdated, but Zhang Mai thinks it's pure fart.

Judging from this game, Mourinho's tactics are not only not outdated, but also more targeted, and the layout of every aspect is also very detailed.

If it weren't for Zhang Mai's big killer, even if Liverpool discovered Mu Niao's conspiracy, it would be difficult to solve it in time, and they might be dismembered by Manchester United at home.

Of course, Mourinho's command in this game is not without problems. The obsession and gambling used against Sanchez are the biggest loopholes in the game between Manchester United and Wooden Bird.

In the 70th minute of the game, Mourinho replaced Rashford with Fellaini. It was this decision that made Manchester United fans completely fried.

The fans will of course express their dissatisfaction, because what they saw was that the hero who scored twice was replaced in advance, and Sanchez, who was doing nothing throughout the game, was still on the court.

As for Liverpool's success in digging a hole for Manchester United after the change, if they don't strengthen their defense, sooner or later they won't even be able to keep the draw?

sorry!Fans are not coaches and players. Not only can they not see clearly the purpose of every substitution and tactical adjustment, but they also don't have to be responsible for the related consequences.

In fact, Sanchez's statistics in this game are indeed a bit horrible. After the whole game, he even had 0 shots.

After joining Manchester United, Sanchez was deeply trusted by Mourinho, but his performance was unbearable to look at. This will naturally make fans and experts fry.

Seeing that Sanchez, whom he hand-picked to buy, is in such a bad situation, Mourinho still does his own way, and even he is still trying to activate Sanchez at all costs.

Martial, who served as a left winger, performed well at that time, and even contributed to driving the Manchester United team, but Mourinho, in order to make room for Sanchez,

This time in the double red meeting, he actually won Manchester United's number one thigh Lingard this season. The reason is that Mourinho wanted Sanchez to try to play in the middle behind Lukaku.

This change for Sanchez is hardly a success, but it reflects Mourinho's attitude-I will stick to Sanchez.

From abolishing Martial for Sanchez to winning Lingard, Mourinho has always expressed his attitude towards Sanchez with practical actions, and for this reason he did not hesitate to beat the world.

Of course, this also reflects Mourinho's obsession and gambling-doing everything for success!
When he was in Inter Milan, Mourinho won the Serie A championship in the first season, but in order to win the Champions League, he sent away his iron club and the team's top star Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and introduced Eto'o, Sneijder, Milito, etc. New recruits, tore down and rebuilt a championship lineup,
That time Mourinho's gamble succeeded, and the triple crown honor of Serie A, Champions League and Coppa Italia was his reward.

Now in Manchester United, on Sanchez, Mourinho has once again started to gamble. This time he is not only betting on hundreds of millions of dollars, but also to a certain extent on his own reputation and future.

And was Mourinho's big gamble this time a success, or did it end in dismay?In the next year or so, the answer will be revealed.

But Zhang Mai knew that Mourinho's big gamble would end up in a mess, and he resigned sadly, and Sanchez has since become Manchester United's biggest chicken rib.
