My football skills are so strong! I am the king of control

"Lin Chen is running back, he's attacking Stones from behind!"

"Does he want to restrict Manchester City's central midfielder tactics in this way?"

Guardiola was staring at Lin Chen who was making a forward move on the sidelines. He was worried that Lin Chen would find a way to crack the situation.

But after seeing that it was Stones who was attacked, Guardiola felt relieved a little.

He knew that this type of impact could only work temporarily and was not a fundamental solution.

But what Liverpool needs now is to quench their thirst in time.

Lin Chen pressed Stones frantically, and then asked center forward Firmino to retreat to play the supporting role of attacking midfielder instead of himself.

Soon, Lin Chen and Firmino formed an interlaced running pattern, with Lin Chen's impact being stronger, faster, and more powerful.

Whenever Manchester City tried to block the opponent by pushing the ball forward with Stones, Lin Chen would immediately intercept it head-on and protect Firmino from behind.

After Stones was forced to pass the ball, Mane and Salah moved from the sides to the middle. This was Klopp's tactical arrangement!

The two wingers moved to the attacking midfielder position to prevent Manchester City's midfield from advancing. Manchester City wanted to pull the battlefield to the midfield, so Klopp concentrated all his troops in the midfield, and the two sides officially started fighting in the middle!

"In football, whoever controls the midfield controls the world. This game is a reflection of this truth. Both sides are desperately fighting for the midfield!"

The 35th minute of the game!

"Vertical and dense short passes are Manchester City's forte."

"Snap." Ederson made a short pass to Stones.

"Bang!" Stones received the ball and moved to the left!

Lin Chen did not rush forward rashly. He followed Stones closely, moving in small steps and observing the direction of Manchester City's attack.

After Kyle Walker returned to center back, the right side was completely handed over to Sterling.

Sterling pulled back to receive the ball, cut inside, and then made a diagonal pass to David Silva.

The magician stopped the ball and turned around, controlling the ball with an incredibly smooth half-turn, and then made a hidden pass to find De Bruyne who was making a forward run, and Manchester City broke through again!

De Bruyne received the ball and passed it straight to the frontcourt, and Aguero cleverly made an offside move forward!

Get the ball and break into the penalty area!

Just kick and hit!

"boom!!!"

There were exclamations at the scene!

"Oh!!!"

"The ball hit the post and bounced out of the bottom line. Aguero missed a great chance to score!"

"This is a small-angle shot, Aguero's specialty!"

"If it were any other center forward, they might not be able to play with such high quality, but Aguero can always do it!"

"Liverpool has achieved results through targeted defense, which has restricted Manchester City's central midfielder tactics to a certain extent."

"But it's clear that the fundamental problem has not been solved yet, so Manchester City can still find some subtle opportunities."

But at least they already have certain limiting methods, and Liverpool has also begun to look for space for counterattacks, preparing to fight back against Manchester City.

Lin Chen has been observing the game for more than 30 minutes without blinking. Now he can basically determine how to tear open Manchester City's midfield!

The live camera occasionally turned to this young man. So far in this game, Lin Chen has not performed well and was even a little confused in the middle.

"It's normal that any young midfielder would feel lost in the face of a midfield three consisting of David Silva, De Bruyne and Fernandinho."

"After all, this is the strongest midfield trio in the Premier League today. Manchester City's dual-core driving tactics, coupled with today's sudden midfielder tactics, will definitely catch Lin Chen off guard."

Gerrard was explaining to Lin Chen in the Sky Sports commentary room, but as soon as he finished speaking, Lovren made a long pass from the backcourt.

Firmino retreated to receive the ball and headed it back!

Lin Chen interspersed and ran back, made a beautiful forward run to create space, and received Firmino's header!

In just a moment, Lin Chen created a great situation to face Manchester City's defense line!

The Manchester City midfield didn't even react, and Fernandinho completely lost the defensive position he was supposed to maintain!
