Football: The strongest post-zero generation.

Although everyone was full of expectations, the opening of the match between Liverpool and Crystal Palace was somewhat unexpected.

Crystal Palace played very cautiously from the start. After having the right to kick off, their first choice was not to attack, but to shrink their formation and advance slowly.

Liverpool did not dare to press too hard today. Matip had just returned from injury and Milner played as a right-back today, so the defense line was really hard to be assured.

So the first ten minutes of the game were very dull, but it was this dull scene that made tens of thousands of Liverpool fans at the scene a little nervous.

Because in the fifth minute of the game, Milner seemed to have suffered a leg injury during a fight with Crystal Palace midfielder McArthur and was carried off the field for treatment. At that moment, almost all Liverpool fans became nervous.

Now everyone knows that Liverpool no longer has a right-back. Once Milner is injured, Klopp can only send Camacho from the youth team to play.

Fortunately, after a simple treatment by the team doctor, Milner returned to the field, which made tens of thousands of Liverpool fans in Anfield Stadium breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Qing also found it a little unbelievable. He felt that the goal had been scored as soon as the ball was kicked out, but Speroni's performance was truly amazing. At the moment when the ball was about to roll over the goal line, he blocked the ball with his legs.

A red figure quickly moved forward. Liverpool's No. 10 Li Qing did not hesitate at all. After catching up with the ball, he immediately launched an attack towards the heart of Crystal Palace.

The system upgrade was not timely! Li Qing was a little confused. He could only blame his bad luck for blocking such a sure goal.

Li Qing originally played as a right winger. In previous games, when he was on the right wing and pressed forward at the beginning of the game, he was often able to achieve quick results and quickly establish a leading advantage.

In the Crystal Palace penalty area, Firmino jumped high, pressed Tomkins to take the ball, then forced a turn and shot, but was saved by goalkeeper Speroni.

But at this moment, Crystal Palace's counterattack began. Speroni kicked the ball forward. MacArthur received the captain Milivojevic's header and with a light lob, he got rid of Milner who was defending him.

Van Aanholt had been keeping an eye on Li Qing, so when Li Qing got the ball, he rushed towards him immediately. However, after running a few steps, Li Qing did not continue to break through, but chose to pass the ball.

Although she is over 1.8 meters tall, she has the agility of a Brazilian player. She can often pass good balls to the players in the frontcourt during the game, and her dribbling skills are also among the best in the team.

Klopp placed Li Qing on the right side, which he was familiar with, hoping to gain an advantage as soon as possible, so that even if there were problems with the defense, he could still ensure victory in the game.

After passing Milner, MacArthur had a clear road ahead. He took the ball directly and made a cross, and the ball accurately found Ayew who was following up quickly in the middle.

Today, Mane did not seem very excited at the beginning of the game on the right, and he often pressed forward and forgot to pull back. Just now, it was because he did not return in time that Milner was one against two, and he made a tackle in a hurry, but he almost hurt himself.

Mane passed the ball to Keita, who immediately made a long pass to Li Qing. Li Qing took a long shot outside the penalty area, but the ball was blocked by Speroni.

Three minutes later, Li Qing completed another long shot. He received another pass from Fabinho outside the penalty area, but the ball was saved by Speroni.

For most of the first half, the Crystal Palace goalkeeper, who was almost 40 years old, was really like a god. Shots from Mane, Fabinho and Firmino failed to break through the goal he was guarding, and Li Qing's shot was also blocked by him.

Li Qing frowned slightly. Milner almost made a mistake just now. The opponent's attacking player Zaha broke through him and made a cross, which almost allowed the Crystal Palace striker to score.

Obviously, Crystal Palace's tactics today were also targeted. Their several attempts after the opening were all aimed at Matip and Milner, so Klopp's decision was to relieve the team's pressure on the right while ensuring the team's offense.

Fabinho's goal at this time was obviously to attract more defensive power from the opponent through his dribbling, so as to create space for the offensive players, and his goal was indeed achieved.

Seeing that Milivojevic couldn't steal the ball from Fabinho, Kouyate rushed forward, ready to double-team Fabinho, and as soon as Kouyate moved, Fabinho finally passed the ball, and the ball went straight past Kouyate.

It seems that I have to work harder, otherwise if the opponent scores first, it will be disadvantageous to Liverpool both in terms of the situation and psychological pressure.

The blocked ball fell at the feet of Crystal Palace defender Wan Bissaka. In a panic, he tried to clear the ball but failed to kick it far. The ball fell at the feet of Henderson who rushed to the penalty area. Henderson made a powerful long shot, but unfortunately the force was too great and the ball was not held down and went over the crossbar.

This is going to cause trouble! Li Qing's eyes suddenly lit up. Li Qing knew the characteristics of his Brazilian teammate very well.

But before the thought could pass through his mind, the situation on the field changed. The opponent Milivojevic intercepted Fabinho, and Fabinho kept the ball firmly under his feet without any intention of passing it.

After a long period of failure in attacking, Liverpool players became a little impatient. Sometimes the game is like this, when there is a goalkeeper with extremely good luck on the other side and you really can't kick the ball into the goal no matter how hard you try. This situation is very demoralizing.

After Milner returned to the field, Klopp on the sidelines immediately adjusted the positions of the players on the field. Mane and Li Qing swapped positions, with Mane playing as left winger and Li Qing as right winger.

However, the first threatening attack in the game came from Crystal Palace. Crystal Palace attacked from the center, Zaha made a cross in the counterattack, and Ayew headed the ball wide.

This shot marked the beginning of Liverpool's siege of Crystal Palace's goal, and Liverpool players began to bombard the Crystal Palace's penalty area.

There was no defensive player around Ayew at this time, and Matip was completely defeated in the chase just now. Ayew jumped high and made a powerful header, but because the distance was too close and the power was too strong, Alisson failed to create a miracle.

"Goal—" Martin Taylor of Sky Sports shouted before Andy Gray, "Ghanaian striker Ayew helped Crystal Palace score the first goal and broke the deadlock on the field. Liverpool fell behind at home!"
