"GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
After scoring the goal, the Egyptian winger ran up wildly in the Old Trafford Stadium, rushing to the stands of 3,000 visiting team fans...
Liverpool players came to Salah one by one to celebrate the goal with him, even if they were just leading one goal, but after all... they already had the advantage!
On the side of the court, Klopp also bent down and roared. Liverpool's record in the league this season is not ideal, and he himself is under a lot of pressure. If he can win this game today, the momentum and condition of the "Red Army" will really enter its peak period.
Beating Manchester United away... No, even if you can't leave with a victory, even if you leave Old Trafford Stadium with a draw, it will be a big victory for the "Red Army"!
Let’s take a look at Chelsea, who drew with Manchester United in the first round. Now the "Blue Army" is firmly sitting at the second place in the standings and has even been regarded as the second most popular in the Premier League this season.
If Klopp was still nervous before the game started, he would really have a clear idea now...
"Defense! Go back to defend! Then counterattack, counterattack!"
Klopp kept passing instructions to his players, believing that these players knew what to do next, because before the game started, he had already told the team what to do in various situations.
However... Yaldim's first round of the league match against Manchester United really reminded many teams and found a new way out!
When playing against Manchester United... we cannot just defend ourselves, and we cannot ignore them. We must find the balance point between offense and defense in order to create a threat to Manchester United in the game.
Salah broke the goal, and the Manchester United player was stunned for a moment, and then began to prepare to kick off... It was just one goal behind, not to mention that this is Old Trafford Stadium.
This "Red Devil"... has seen big scenes after all!
I was accidentally behind by one goal at home. Although I felt a little unhappy, I would not panic at all.
Even the same is true for the fans at home at Old Trafford Stadium, and they did not become anxious because they were one goal behind.
"There is nothing special about Salah's goal. The key is that we made a mistake while defending, but this ball... cannot be blamed for Axel. After all, the ball flew to him was an accident. In short, this conceding was just an accident. Liverpool had good luck today. But with luck alone, they could not win the game! Next, I believe our team will start to counterattack, and the players should be serious!"
After his players celebrated the goal, Klopp not only did not become slackened because the team led by one goal, but even... became even more nervous!
As an experienced head coach, Klopp has naturally studied the "Red Devils". At least in the past two years, he has been conducting football research around Manchester United. As for the past... that is to study Guardiola's team!
Guardiola is really a genius coach. Even though Barcelona's peak pass and control period has passed and Spain's peak pass, he still led Bayern to play different pass and control football in the Bundesliga, and made the "Bundesliga Giant" more dominant in the Bundesliga.
Unfortunately, after Guardiola came to England, his competitors' strength was really too strong, and Manchester City's foundation was just average. It was not difficult to play the pass-control football he wanted. However, it would take quite a while to use the pass-control football to make "Blue Moon" win the championship again, or even to play dominant power in the Premier League!
Because I know very well about the current Manchester United team, Klopp naturally understands how cruel the counterattack launched by this team will be when the "Red Devils" fall behind in the score. Next... it depends on whether Liverpool can withstand Manchester United's attack and find an opportunity to expand the score advantage in the counterattack.
Sure enough, Manchester United's counterattack... is coming!
In the 11th minute, Martial received a pick-up pass from Yang Xiaozhuang from the top of the arc in the left penalty area, and volleyed... and missed the left post!
In the 14th minute, Rashford received a pass from the top of the arc from outside the penalty area on the right. He suddenly shot a long shot. The ball was blocked by Liverpool goalkeeper Raikovic's quick side save from the baseline.
In the 15th minute, Manchester United's corner kick was taken by Mansa in front of the right goal post and then rubbed it. As a result, the ball was taken off by Raikovic in the air, which also made Tuanzebe, who was ambushed in front of the left goal post, failed to catch the opportunity.
In the 21st minute, Manchester United played the most threatening attack after the start of the game. The ball was passed by Tuanzebe from the backcourt to the left side. Martial stopped the ball with a delicate right foot outside the instep, and then the ball was divided and Joe Gomez was dodged.
After dodging his opponent, Martial saw Joe Gomez immediately start running back, but he had no intention of dribbling the ball and rushing forward!
This kind of thing...why do I need to do it in person?
Martial grinned and kicked the ball into the gap behind Liverpool's defense in the middle...
In the middle, Yang Xiaozhuang pierced Liverpool's defensive formation like a sharp sword. Van Dyke and Hort beside him didn't even have the chance to hold him. Even the moment Martial passed the ball, Yang Xiaozhuang first dodged the two of them horizontally, and then started a sprint forward.
Moreover, even so... Van Dyke and Hort still couldn't limit Yang Xiaozhuang's actions!
Everyone in Liverpool watched Yang Xiaozhuang dribble into the penalty area on the left side of his home. Goalkeeper Raikovic decisively abandoned the goal and attacked, and he was always blocking the shooting angle from the far end.
Yang Xiaozhuang seemed to have had a premonition. He didn't think about hitting the far end while running, but suddenly bounced the ball towards the left goal with his outer instep during running...
"ah--"
Although Rajkovic has been blocking the far corner, he is ready to jump to the right to save the fire at any time. As the ball flew out from Yang Xiaozhuang's feet, he also made a leap to save the fire at the right, but... it's slow!
Yang Xiaozhuang's external instep was really abrupt. When Rajkovic made a save, the ball had already flew past his position from the horizontal line...
but--
When Yang Xiaozhuang was raking his feet outside, in order to let the ball avoid the opponent's goalkeeper's save, he added a spin on the ball. Even if the Liverpool goalkeeper saves, it is impossible to touch the ball.
But as a result... the rotation of this ball is so large!
As the ball moved forward, the more it was going to the left, and finally... it fell out of the left post and flew out of the bottom line!
Watt!?
Chapter completed!
