Chapter 432 A mistake is equivalent to death!
"The game is about to begin, and both players have entered the stadium! This time we saw that Liverpool also lined up a lineup that was exactly the same as ours in the game. Although we don't know if they can play a good offensive effect, we should be able to see that Liverpool is still very courageous. They dare to attack us away... in Old Trafford! Like you!"
The live commentator at Old Trafford Stadium and Manchester United fans became excited, and they could see that the upcoming game... is really like what "Uncle Scrap" said before, Liverpool came here with courage, and they will do their best to win in this game.
A team has courage, determination, fighting spirit, then...even if it is an opponent or a mortal enemy, it is worth applauding for it!
Just 48 seconds into the game, Manchester United created a set piece about 25 meters away from the goal in the frontcourt. When Yang Xiaozhuang took the penalty, he also made a very threatening long shot. The ball flew out of bounds at the junction of Liverpool's left goal post and crossbar.
"Oh... It's a pity! What a pity! Young's shot was only a little bit short of breaking Liverpool's goal! But we still have to say that this is a high-quality shot!"
At Old Trafford Stadium, Manchester United supporters still gave applause for Yang Xiaozhuang's shot...
The 3,000 Liverpool hardcore players were all relieved with their head coach. The kick just now... was really scary!
It's only a little bit short. If the ball can move inward ten centimeters, it is very likely that it will hit the dead corner and finally bounce into the goal.
After a sigh of relief, Klopp quickly walked to the side of the field again. Although the game had just begun, he still felt that it was necessary to start commanding his team now, otherwise... it might be too late!
The "Red Devils" who play at home are really fierce!
"Look at it...right! Go right!"
Klopp kept shouting at the Liverpool players on the court. The attack line he arranged for Liverpool today was composed of Firmino, Mandzukic and Salah. Among these three, Firmino and Mandzukic are all of the kind with very comprehensive skills, but... they are slow!
At present, Manchester United is using their home advantage to constantly besiege their own goal and constantly putting pressure on their own. In this case... Liverpool actually has a chance to counterattack!
And counterattack... you have to go to the right!
Do you really think Firmino and Mandzukic can run with the ball by himself?
When Liverpool really has a chance to counterattack, it depends on what effect Salah on the right can play!
Klopp chose Mandzukic today, mainly because he can hold the ball in the midfield and frontcourt, and has a good passing ability. This is what Klopp needs. If you have speed... you can just have a Salah who can play when counterattacking!
Otherwise, Crupp could have completely chosen Mane to play on the left, so that the speed of both sides can be guaranteed at the same time. However, in that case, Liverpool will have fewer stable contact points when playing positional battles in the frontcourt, and they can only rely on Firmino. In that case, Manchester United will be too easy when defending.
With Klopp's constant loud reminder, the "Red Army" got another chance to counterattack and began to assist the right side...
In 2 minutes and 30 seconds, after Liverpool intercepted Manchester United's pass in his own penalty area, right back Joe Gomez kicked the ball to the center line of the right in front... Salah ran over sideways and received the pass.
Immediately afterwards, Salah turned around and drove forward. Seeing Joe Reilly coming up to intercept him, he dunked the ball to the left and cut a sideline to the inside.
At this time, Joe Reilly also turned around, but when he saw that Mansa had come to intercept Salah, he deliberately slowed down his pace and wanted Salah to break into a dead end by himself.
But Salah was really too flexible and his speed was really fast. He actually accelerated again, rushed towards the gap between Mansa's left and Joe Reilly.
Originally, Joe Riley wanted to be intercepted by Mansa, and he assisted from the side so that he could complete the double-team against Salah. Unfortunately... he was still too young and underestimated the speed and strength of the Egyptian winger.
In an instant, Salah threw away Joe Riley and wanted to break through Mansa's defense from the right side, but the Dutch central defender suddenly made a kick at this moment...
"ah!"
Salah didn't expect that Mansa would kick so decisively. He was in the process of breaking through at a high speed. It was impossible to change the line again. He could only take the lead and stab the ball out, but his foot was tripped by Mansa... and it instantly turned into a rolling gourd. 1
no way!
Mansa is 190 and weighs 87 kilograms, but Salah is only 175 and weighs 72 kilograms. The difference in figure between the two... that's not a small matter!
"Beep———————”
Even though this is Old Trafford Stadium and Manchester United's home court, the referee still decisively called Mansa's foul and rushed up and gave Mansa a yellow card... This was a tactical foul. Although it was not very serious, it really strangled Liverpool's counterattack to death.
Mansa curled her lips and said nothing, spreading her hands to express her innocence, and then slowly retreated...
Taking advantage of this opportunity of set-up ball, the "Red Army" passed two passes in the frontcourt, Firmino made a long shot from the right side of the arc top of the penalty area...Anti-fire cannon!
Although there was no threat to this attack, the Liverpool players found the direction of the attack, and they all remembered what the head coach said before the game... and counterattacked, passing the ball to the right, and looking for Mohammed!
Of course, no matter how Liverpool hit the right side in the counterattack, it is still Old Trafford Stadium here, and Manchester United still has the initiative in the game!
However, when the game was 7 minutes into the game, Liverpool served the ball and the ball was kicked into Manchester United's middle circle at halftime. Aliyu won the game while competing for the top, but he couldn't control it well. After the ball was pushed by him, it flew to the left rear in a diagonal line, which is...Liverpool's right!
At this time, Tuanzebe on the defense line jumped up again to intercept the air, but he didn't even hit the ball!
Because Aliyu's header unexpectedly came, Tuanzebe's hastily interception went wrong. The ball flew over his head and fell between Tuanzebe and Joe Reilly.
Generally speaking, such mistakes will not actually be threatening, and Joe Reilly came over to catch the ball on the wing.
But the problem is... Manchester United is facing Liverpool now, while Liverpool's attacker on the right is Salah, who is extremely fast and has extremely flexible running position!
The Egyptian winger reacted very quickly and rushed out immediately. He rushed to the front before Joe Reilly, and then accelerated to chase...
Chapter completed!
