Revive Liverpool

Chapter 163 the end of summer
Liverpool's warm-up matches in Europe also began in August.

Liverpool's warm-up match this year still went to Denmark, which belongs to Northern Europe.

Last year I went to Norway, this year I went to Denmark.

On August 8, Liverpool's first warm-up match in Europe was held in Denmark. The opponent was Brondby in the Danish Super League...Ager's home team.

As we all know, the 80s and [-]s were the most glorious time for Liverpool. It was also from that time that the state-owned TV stations in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark in Northern Europe began to broadcast England's top league.

Because of the success and strength of Liverpool in that era, the brand of Liverpool has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with the broadcast of these Nordic national TV stations. These are the first batch of Nordic Liverpool fans.

In the 90s, Nordic countries began to sell football broadcasts to commercial channels, but at that time the Nordic fans were deeply ingrained in Liverpool, and some old fans spread Liverpool in their families, making more people fall in love with Liverpool through the family situation.

And some Nordic players who played for Liverpool have also brought a large number of fans to Liverpool, such as Riise from Norway and Agger from Denmark.

Not only Riise and Agger, but also Hyypia and Lit Manin, they all brought a lot of Nordic fans to the team, especially Riise and Liverpool completed the Istanbul miracle together, and Hyypia was also the captain of Liverpool.

Beyond that, there are other reasons why Nordic fans want Liverpool.

The magnificent Gustav Adolf Church on Park Road in the Baltic Triangle, Liverpool's bustling neighborhood, was built between 1883 and 1884 for Nordic players heading to the "New World".

Over time, Gustav Adolf's Church became a landmark symbol of Liverpool's longstanding relationship with Northern Europe.

The popularity of The Beatles in Northern Europe also brought some fans to Liverpool.

The UK as a whole is Protestant, but Liverpool has many Irish people, so it is more Catholic.

It is precisely because of the resonance in culture and values ​​that Nordic fans are very loyal to Liverpool.

Okay, back to Liverpool's warm-up match.

Agger wore Liverpool's captain's armband today against former owner Brondby.

In the 15th minute, Suso's strong shot was saved. In the 23rd minute, Suso made a clearance error. Norgaard shot into the net and Brondby took the lead.

In the 29th minute, Roster and De Bruyne shot and were rescued by the opposing goalkeeper.

In the 47th minute, Griezmann forced a cross from the penalty area and was barely blocked by the goalkeeper. Sterling shot from close range and scored, one to one.

In the 64th minute, Henderson hit the crossbar with a free kick.Sterling missed a single chance and Brondby hit the door frame again.

In the 92nd minute, Hassani scored 4 goals in a row, and Brondby defeated Liverpool [-]-[-] to complete the lore.
