The Greatest Performer on the Football Field

In the 75th minute, Manchester United made their second adjustment and replaced Herrera with Darren Fletcher, who had returned from injury.

At the same time, Liverpool ran out of substitutions, and Emre Can replaced captain Gerrard, who was about to run out of energy. In fact, this season, the midfielder position is shared between the German and Jay.

Don't worry! Sun Wu shouted at Lukaku, Mane, and Griezmann in front, while making a tactical gesture to retreat slightly.

Klopp's tactical style is very consistent with his personal personality. Whether in Dortmund or Liverpool, he often scores consecutive goals in a short period of time.

When the opponent loses a goal and tries to strengthen their attack, they will suddenly press hard, use high pressure to mess up the opponent's backcourt, and then take the opportunity to score the second and third goals...

Seeing Emre Can replace Gerrard, Sun Wu knew what Klopp wanted to do.

Liverpool is going to pursue the victory. Zhan Jun was a little entangled in his heart. In terms of goals scored this season, Manchester City ranks first, Liverpool second, and Manchester United only ranks fourth.

Liverpool wants to press high and score another goal. If the score is extended to 3-1, Manchester United will be in trouble... Zhang Lu did not hide his tendency. Manchester United took it back, but the extent of the recovery was not particularly large.

Pochettino stared closely at the situation on the field, and his eyes were attracted by the running figure No. 7 from time to time. Whether he could come back depends on Sun Wu.

Fletcher, who came on as a substitute, was much more reliable defensively than Herrera. He and Schneiderlin's horizontal sweeps in the midfield and backfield made it difficult for Liverpool's offense to make progress. Shinji Kagawa, Coutinho, Di Maria The ball was intercepted several times.

However, Sun Wu's counterattack failed to successfully deliver the ball to the frontcourt. The physically fit Emre Can was very capable of running back and forth. Henderson stuck to Sun Wu again and committed two consecutive fouls. The counterattack was nipped in the bud.

Sun Wu wiped the sweat from his head. He knew he had to change his approach. Henderson behind him was like a piece of candy, and he was not afraid of the referee not far away at all. He was almost wiped out by Sun Wu twice, but he immediately used foul tactics. , and today's referee also has a certain tendency in making penalties... Sun Wu has nothing to say about this. This is Anfield, Liverpool's home court.

In the 81st minute, De Gea once again made a key save. He barely blocked Emre Can's long-range volley shot. The ball hit Firmino's calf and bounced back, but De Gea was once again caught first.

Lying on the ground to catch his breath, De Gea looked around and then suddenly stood up quickly. Although Firmino immediately came over to block him,

But the Spanish goalkeeper still threw the ball to start a fast break.

The moment the ball was thrown out of the penalty area, Sun Wu quickened his pace, followed by Henderson, but soon Henderson stopped... The ball was thrown to Mane on the right, and Sun Wu It's moving to the left.

Manchester United's counterattack... Zhang Lu shouted: No foul, no foul!

Griezmann used his shoulders to carry Moreno, who was grabbing the ball. The latter was stumbled and fell. Griezmann, who had passed the ball, accelerated and grabbed the ball back before it went out of bounds.

The referee shook his head and crossed his hands to indicate that it was not a foul, and the KOP stands booed again.

Griezmann! Go ahead! Zhang Lu couldn't help shouting.

But Griezmann, who saved the ball from the sideline, did not accelerate. He sent a direct pass, and it was Mane who received the ball.

The movement of Manchester United's offensive players this time is very interesting. When Griezmann got the ball on the right wing, Mane cut in at high speed from the other wing. He took Piszczek and ran and ran... ... Piszczek complained in his heart and almost ran to the right!

Mane...feint...smash...Sun Wu!

Shoot... nice pass... Lukaku shoots!

And there's...Fletcher!

Ohhhh...god-like Joe Hart!

Mane, Lukaku and Fletcher all watched in despair as the ball flew out of the baseline, why can't they block it!

Mane sent a back pass from the right side of the penalty area, and Sun Wu, who briefly got rid of Henderson, made a fake move to shoot directly, which happened to deduct Lovren in front of him and Henderson who was flying in the tackle, and then He took a step forward and passed with his toe, and Lukaku got a chance to shoot from the left side of the penalty area.

But Joe Hart used his body to block Lukaku's shot...Fletcher then rushed into the penalty area to act as the second wave of offense and rushed the ball towards the top, but Joe Hart made a diving jump and the ball hit him. Face... Lovren then kicked the ball out of the baseline.

Sun Wu was also a little desperate. He really had no choice when encountering such a goalkeeper. He had already sent the ball near the small penalty area line and still couldn't score!

All the previous preparations have been perfect, and there is no problem with Lukaku and Fletcher's shots, but Joe Hart can save it... Sun Wu watched the Liverpool players rushing over one by one to embrace Joe Hart. Celebrating, I feel really bad.

However, Klopp on the sidelines did not celebrate. He frowned and looked up at the big screen, where Manchester United's attack just now was being replayed.

Mane's movement was an accident. Griezmann's foul on Moreno was not whistled. It was also an accident. Sun Wu dunked Lovren and Henderson...well, this is not an accident, but in Luka After Ku's shot was saved, Fletcher's appearance in the penalty area was a surprise.

Klopp lowered his head and recalled that when Coutinho scored, when he was running wildly to celebrate... Best was talking to Pochettino.

Compared with Herrera, Fletcher's skills in organization, passing, and coordination are much inferior, but the Scotsman's defense is better and he is more determined when pushing forward. He has a strong back row to break in and grab. Somewhat capable.

Klopp made an accurate judgment. This was an adjustment from Sun Wu. Although Manchester United recovered its defense, the recovery was not large. They were waiting for this opportunity.

High pressing and high pressing cannot occur at the same time.

But high pressing and pressing defense can occur at the same time because they can appear in the same half.

Neither side is willing to hold the ball for a long time. As far as the current situation is concerned, possession rate is harmful to them.

Liverpool hopes to press high to steal the ball and launch an attack on the spot to expand the lead as quickly as possible, while Manchester United hopes to use a pressing defensive style to steal the ball and penetrate Liverpool's back.

The two consecutive attacks just now are an example. The pressing defense means that the formation is not highly compressed, and it also means that the midfielder has time to sprint at high speed to act as the terminator of the second wave of attacks.

Fletcher, who pushed forward resolutely, almost acted as the terminator.

Seeing this, Klopp stopped. Joe Hart was like a god of war today, and De Gea was not bad at all. He even saved a penalty.

Liverpool regained its defense. Zhan Jun was a little surprised, Is it because my physical strength can't support it?

There are still about seven or eight minutes, including about ten minutes of stoppage time. Zhang Lu smacked his lips, Liverpool wants to hold on to the score... Oh, this is a serious foul!

Wow, Moreno has a yellow card!

After Matip cleared the corner kick out of the penalty area, the Liverpool players were all moving forward. Moreno, who was a bit weak in tactical skills, was a step slower. Sun Wu sent a diagonal pass behind him. Moreno had no choice but to pull down Wa, who was about to enter the penalty area. Lencia.

Two yellows turned into one red, Moreno was sent off. Mortensen laughed: Now 11 versus 10, let's see if Manchester United can create a miracle!

Klopp was obviously mentally prepared for Moreno's end. He immediately shouted and ordered Di Maria to retreat to defend. In addition, Firmino, Shinji Kagawa, and Coutinho all made great efforts to hold on to the 2-1 goal. score.

Looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Sun Wu felt that he should do something special, otherwise there would be no hope at all.

After being knocked down again by Coutinho who scored twice today, Sun Wu felt that those special things may not necessarily need to be done personally.

His eyes fell on Schneiderlin.
