Chapter 120 The Battle Against Liverpool

"I am very happy to take this baton, Chuanzu is our pride, and I will definitely continue the championship tradition!

We will continue to preserve many of the original traditions of the club. In addition, we will invest more than [-] million yuan every year to keep the club competitive. We are serious about this! "

Boss Wang's words still made many people feel confident.

After all, investing [-] million a year is not something ordinary teams can afford.

The team also quickly stabilized. The head coach Ma Er also said in an interview that the team has no problems at all. The goal of the new season is still to defend the Chinese Super League champion and the AFC Champions League champion.

The club's new general manager Wei Dahan also believes that there will be no turmoil in the club, and he doesn't have to keep a low profile if his strength allows.

Huang Shan, the original general manager of the club, was transferred to Manchester City by Jia Yi to serve as Pierce's deputy. If Pierce had other ideas in the future, Huang Shan would be able to take over.

Huang Yuan is responsible for managing Dingyi Investment. Now Dingyi Investment has become a group company, controlling all the shares of Manchester City, part of the shares of Lao Ma Company, part of the shares of Facebook, and some securities investment matters.

In the 25th round of the Premier League, Manchester City came to Anfield to challenge Liverpool.

The two sides met for the first time this season. Manchester City beat Liverpool 3:1 at home. This game is also considered to be Liverpool's revenge battle.

Before the game, the media predicted that Manchester City might encounter a little trouble this time, because the Liverpool team is still in a very good state.

In the last round, when they were behind Bolton by 2 goals in the away game, they just scored three goals in the last 10 minutes to reverse the game.

At the same time, Manchester United and Arsenal also made official statements, hoping that Liverpool can stop Manchester City, and the remarks were full of praise for Liverpool.

This is also true, in order to achieve their goals, they don't want to lose face.

In fact, Liverpool and Manchester United are also mortal enemies. It is better to be with Arsenal.
On the day of the game, Liverpool did cause a lot of trouble for Manchester City at the start.

Baros made several flexible penetrations, which brought some difficulties to Manchester City's defense.

Fortunately, Cech played well and resolved all these shots.

In 11 minutes, Kaka broke through the middle and was brought down. He personally took the free kick, and Ronaldinho stepped aside.

Since the transfer of free kick attributes between the two, Ronaldinho did not play well in training. On the contrary, Kaka's free kicks can always be kicked at a sharp angle, so Kaka is now taking the penalty.

Liverpool players lined up the wall, and Polish goalkeeper Dudek was also jumping around the goal line, eager to try.

The whistle blew, and Kaka kicked the ball out. The ball flew over the wall, fell rapidly in front of the goal, and fell into the upper left corner of the goal, 0:1!

Kaka excitedly rushed to the sidelines to celebrate, and his teammates followed one after another to celebrate together.

In the stands, Mourinho was very happy. Kaka's free kick had a tricky angle and excellent strength, showing Kaka's new attack method.

This will enrich Manchester City's offensive methods in the future. Mourinho likes players like Kaka, and even if Ronaldinho leaves Manchester City, he doesn't have to worry about it.

Houllier frowned. Against a team like Manchester City, he felt powerless. Opponents can always score goals, and the defense makes it difficult for you to surpass, especially the goalkeeper position. Petr Cech is completely like a god. .

If things go on like this, the team won't do it, and they will definitely lose.

Liverpool is now only 3 points away from Chelsea, and they must be chasing after them. If they lose and Chelsea wins Portsmouth, then Liverpool will be 6 points behind, so it will not be so easy to catch up.

Houllier then walked to the sidelines and asked the players to press up.

After the re-kick-off, Liverpool pressed very high.

Gerrard suddenly advances in the middle, Barosch catches the ball and knocks it across, Gerrard volleys vigorously before Maniche, and the ball flies to the goal against the turf.

Cech made a side attack, although he reached the ball, but the ball was too powerful, it still hit his fingers and hit the net, 1:1!

The Anfield stadium exploded in an instant, and the crazy Liverpool fans made a huge noise.

Gerrard was also very excited and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate passionately.

This shot was indeed of high quality. Maniche's interception was only a little too slow, and he shot the ball in the end.

It's not easy to pounce when sticking to the ground. Gerrard pressed so well, it's understandable that Cech couldn't pounce.

Houllier clutched his chest excitedly, his heart was beating thumping right now, and soon, he quickly took several deep breaths and sat back.

The game continues.

After the re-kick-off, Manchester City also pressed up.

Kaka changed the speed, and after throwing off the opponent, he also took a long shot. Dudek performed fairly steadily and saved the ball to the bottom line.

Ronaldinho then took a corner kick. The quality of the ball was a bit poor, and he didn't kick it. The ball was directly kicked to the opponent's player Riise.

However, Riise also made a mistake in his busy schedule. His through pass was intercepted by Kaka who fell to the ground.

Kaka got up and made a straight pass. Crouch caught the ball and turned around and shot. The ball passed Dudek's ten fingers and flew into the lower right corner of the goal. 1:2, Manchester City once again exceeded the score!
"Haha, this big bamboo pole is really good. If I didn't show up, the big bamboo pole should have played in Liverpool, but now he broke the goal of Liverpool. It's interesting, interesting."

Jia Yi also smiled happily on the stage. The game also looked very exciting, and there should be many goals from both sides.

Sure enough, 10 minutes later, Liverpool played a wonderful cooperation in the frontcourt. Kewell made a through pass, Baros made a dunk in the penalty area, and then volleyed the far corner vigorously. Cech stretched out his hand to block it, and Kewell came up to make up the shot The ball rolled into the goal again, 2:2, and the two teams returned to the same starting line again.

The Anfield stadium exploded again, and the home fans celebrated wildly.

On the sidelines, Houllier's complexion was a bit unwell, and his heart couldn't take it anymore.

Quickly took out the medicine, took a few pills and ate it.

Today's process was indeed a bit exciting. Houllier's heart is not good. This kind of competition overloads his heart, which is bound to cause problems.

The assistant coach and the team doctor hurried over to check on his condition, and Houllier waved his hand, indicating that he could still cover himself.

Being able to keep up with the defending champion, Houllier is still very satisfied with the team's performance. He will continue to watch. If Liverpool can overthrow Manchester City, then the chances of qualifying for the Champions League next season will be even greater.

Of course, they have performed well in the Champions League this season and their income is increasing, which is of great benefit to Houllier's signings.

If Liverpool wants to regain their glory, they have to continue to sign in. If you don't have money, why don't you talk about it?
If you want to be rich, with Liverpool's business situation, you have to have a place in European competitions for a long time, so that you can continue to compete with strong teams.
