Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 312 Happiness After the Thrill

Liverpool successfully entered the Champions League final, the players rested for a day, and then immediately invested in the highly competitive league.

英超还剩下两轮，曼城落后红军4分但少赛一场，第31轮曼城主场对阵布莱顿的补赛要到37-38轮中间的4月10号。

In view of the large gap in strength between Brighton and Manchester City, Blue Moon is actually one point behind the Red Army, which means that this year's Premier League champion may not be produced until the final round.

Manchester City's opponents in the last two rounds are Hasfield and Southampton. I'm afraid it will be difficult to prevent Blue Moon from scoring all 6 points. The Red Army must rely on themselves to win the last two consecutive victories.

Liverpool will go to Stamford Bridge to challenge tough Chelsea in the 37th round. For this reason, the Manchester City club and fans have actively praised the Blues. They want to see the most sportsmanship and the most tenacious giants in the Premier League. Go into battle.

Liverpool is also earnestly preparing for the most critical battle of the season. Klopp also encouraged the players to win the Premier League title with a victory over Chelsea, a tribute to the UEFA Champions League final at the end of the month.

On May 5th, the match day of the 6th round of the Premier League, Liverpool challenged Chelsea to compete at Stamford Bridge. Fans and football people all over England were paying attention to this focus match.

Chelsea is in a sluggish state after experiencing a coaching change in this game, and is now in fifth place in the standings, basically hopeless with next season's Champions League.

Chelsea have lost 6 draws and 4 losses in the last 2 games, and they have lost nearly 2 home games. Liverpool has a certain upper hand.

But there has never been a certain victory in the battle between the giants in the Premier League, not to mention the Blues, known for their iron-blooded defense, also shoulder the great trust of the whole people to break Liverpool's undefeated gold this season.

Liverpool, which is aiming to win the championship, did not dare to neglect half a point, regardless of the fatigue of the away game in the Champions League, they sent their main players to play.

The starting rosters for both sides are as follows:
Chelsea (3-5-2):

13 - Courtois;

28-Azpilicueta, 24-Cahill, 2-Rudiger;
15-Moses, 7-Kanter, 14-Bakayoko, 4-Cesc Fabregas, 3-Alonso;
18- Giroud, 10- Hazard.

Liverpool (4-3-3):
22 - Mignolet;

10-Zhang Mai, 5-Winaldum, 7-Milner;
11-Salah, 9-Firmino, 19-Mane.

Chelsea only use Alonso to rotate; Liverpool goalkeeper Mignolet rotates, and Klein replaces Arnold who has a minor injury into the starting lineup.

At the beginning of the game, despite Chelsea's poor record this season, there were still a large number of Blues fans who came to the stadium to cheer for the home team. The Blues soldiers fighting for their honor were extremely fierce.

In the 3rd minute of the opening, Zhang Mai made a long pass, and Firmino volleyed from the right side of the penalty area and was saved by Courtois.

Then Chelsea counterattacked, Moses crossed from the right side of the penalty area, and Giroud took the ball with his back to make Bakayoko miss the volley.

In the 11th minute, Hazard made a cross and Alonso shot from 25 yards into Mignolet's arms.

In the 17th minute, Klein made a cross from the right, and Mane shot 12 yards higher.

In the 19th minute, it was Zhang Mai's pass again, and Mane broke through to 25 yards to volley with his left foot and was saved by Courtois.

In the 23rd minute, Chelsea had 6 people in the frontcourt to participate in the counterattack. In the end, the impatient Bakayoko and Giroud rushed together and missed the chance to shoot.

The aftermath of the difficult away game in Rome appeared. Salah, one of the three arrows of the Red Army, was completely out of misfire.

In the 25th minute, Milner passed the ball, and Mane's strong shot from outside the penalty area was barely saved by Courtois. Then Firmino made a low pass from the right side of the penalty area. Mane stopped the ball and flashed past the tackle. shot was confiscated.

Chelsea then counterattacked, Moses made a cross, and Bakayoko's header went wide.

Chelsea broke the deadlock in the 32nd minute, Bakayoko scored a goal, Moses broke through to the right edge of the penalty area and made a pass, and Giroud scored with a header from the edge of the penalty area.

1-0!Chelsea scored the first goal, and the ecstatic Giroud rushed to the stands to hug and celebrate with Luiz after scoring.

After taking the lead, the Blues' offensive continued unabated. In the 36th minute, Hazard passed the ball, and Fabregas passed the shot from a small angle on the right side of the penalty area and passed the sliding goal.

Then the two armies entered a confrontation stage. Liverpool, who was eager to chase points, had no good way for a while. Salah, who was anxious to get angry, was fined a yellow card for diving in the 41st minute.

At the end of the first half, the home team Chelsea temporarily led Liverpool 1-0.

The two sides restarted the battle in the second half, and Liverpool first set off a wave of offense.

Within 5 minutes, Salah and Firmino's outside shots missed one after another.

In the 55th minute, Liverpool, who had been attacking continuously, finally equalized the score. Robertson made a breakthrough from the left and made a pass.

1-1!The two teams are back on the same starting line again. Salah, who failed to score a goal, is more excited than Zhang Mai. This is one of the lovable characteristics of the Egyptians.

No matter how many goals he scored, Salah will always put the interests of the team before personal data, which is something that many stars cannot do.

Starting from the 60th minute, the sequelae of the Champions League of Liverpool soldiers broke out, and the situation on the field shifted to the Blues.

In the 63rd minute, Fabregas passed the ball, Moses' oblique shot from the right side of the penalty area missed, and then Kanter missed the shot from the outside.

In the 68th minute, Bakayoko passed the ball, and Hazard's shot from a small angle on the left side of the penalty area was saved. Cahill's header went wide in the corner kick melee, and then Rudiger's goal was disallowed for offside. .

In the 73rd minute, Hazard passed the ball, and Bakayoko shot from the outside was confiscated by Mignolet.

Liverpool gradually became under siege. In the 76th minute, Klopp, who saw the situation was not good, quickly replaced Robertson with the injured Henderson to strengthen the defense.

In the 82nd minute, Liverpool escaped unharmed. Moses made a cross from the right. Alonso volleyed from 12 yards away.

The Blues seemed to be satisfied with the draw. In the 85th minute, Hazard was replaced by William.

Then Chelsea fully contracted the defense, Zappacosta also replaced Moses, and Liverpool's Milner was replaced by Moreno.

Five minutes into stoppage time, Pedro replaced Cesc Fabregas in the 5st minute.

In the 94th minute, Liverpool made another lore. This time it was Mane's cross from the left. Zhang Mai made a round moon scimitar on the edge of the small penalty area, piercing the gate guarded by Courtois.

2-1!At this moment, Zhang Maibei's possession helped Liverpool pass the danger and did not leave Chelsea any time to counterattack.

Zhang Mai scored twice in this field, and also increased his Premier League goals this season to 35, overwhelming Messi's 34 goals in La Liga in one fell swoop.

It is worth mentioning that Zhang Mai's teammate Salah also scored 31 league goals, and the two accounted for more than half of the team's goals.

Zhang Mai, who left the field after the game, was hugged by the passionate Uncle Scumbag because of the good news from Manchester City.

Manchester City drew 0-0 with Huddersfield at the Etihad Stadium. Manchester City's 3-game winning streak was blocked. While fulfilling the opponent's key point of relegation, Manchester City has fallen behind by 1 points.

Liverpool's opponent in the last round is Brighton, who is bullied by everyone. Now the goal difference is still 12 ahead of Blue Moon, and there is only a matter of time left before the defending champion.

However, Manchester City coach Guardiola still insists that Blue Moon has a chance to win the championship:
"We talked about it after the game, the extra pressure helps the team stay focused, we played Huddersfield to the end, but the game was really difficult. We have had this before, It was very warm against Huddersfield in November and Southampton at home and I think that affected the players a bit, especially in the first half."

As for the final championship, he said: "We cannot deny that Liverpool has a 90% chance, but the remaining 10% is enough for us to stick to the end."

A few days later, on May 5, Manchester City completed their 10st round of make-up matches, and finally defeated Brighton 31-3 at home, narrowing the gap behind Liverpool to 1 points.

Guardiola still did not give up: "Every Premier League team is a model of professional football spirit, and it makes no sense to determine the result of the game by realizing it."

Zhang Mai was really drunk when he saw that the melon bald, who has always shown a gentle and elegant image, has become so hard-headed due to the pressure of winning the championship.
