Football: From becoming a god-level striker

Manchester City's strong midfield and frontcourt capabilities make it difficult for Liverpool to transfer the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt through the midfield, so they can only open their feet to find frontcourt teammates.

This makes it difficult for Liverpool to counterattack.

Compared with the first match between the two sides, in Klopp's view, Manchester City's offensive and defensive capabilities have improved again.

Throughout the first half, Liverpool did not get a better chance. On the contrary, Manchester City's two sides made it difficult for Liverpool to parry.

In Manchester City's previous offensive system, the two full-backs needed to keep plugging in to get in position and fight positional battles through passing.

Now, because Stones is mentioned, there are enough midfielders to play a beautiful offensive cooperation, and the three defenders do not need to participate in the offense, which makes their defense more stable.

Of course, in this way, Stones became the most tiring player in the game. He needs to organize passes in offense, and needs to quickly retreat to the central defender position in defense.

Fortunately, he is young enough and physically fit.

In the first half, Manchester City did not score again and Liverpool are gradually adapting to Manchester City's offensive and defensive rhythm.

When the half-time whistle sounded, the Etihad fans applauded wildly, shouting the champion.

The momentum is getting bigger and bigger.

"It's getting closer and closer to Manchester City's early victory. Liverpool didn't have any good offensive opportunities throughout the first half, which is quite different from the first round of the two sides.

The pre-match media's predictions are astonishing!

I hope that Liverpool can change, don't let this game become a cutscene! "

The Liverpool players felt a little uncomfortable when they heard the shouts in their ears and looked at the flags flying on the field.

They want too much to bring a league championship to Anfield, and they hope too much that these fans belong to Anfield.

I wish these cheers were for them.

There is no championship in the Premier League, which is the biggest pain for Liverpool players.

When a large number of fans in the stands shouted Zhao Gang's name and thought about coming to the Etihad, those fans wore the NO.18 jersey with excited and happy faces.

At the age of 19, it has reached this point.

Make people yearn for, envy.

The Manchester City players who returned to the locker room finally couldn't restrain themselves.

There are cameras outside, and thousands of fans who are always watching them. If they show too much, it will definitely be interpreted as disrespecting the opponent and considered arrogant.

Now in the locker room, they can cheer freely.

"champion!!!"

"Wuhu... the champion is coming!!"

"The Premier League champion!!"

"United, here we come to the Champions League!!!"

Guardiola walked into the locker room, looking at these players who were about to show up, he rarely smiled.

never mind.

Taking a step back, even if Liverpool come back, they will eventually be the Premier League champions.

Liverpool created a comeback with three goals at halftime, and the coach who opened champagne in the midfield was nailed to the pillar of shame of the fans.

But this game is not a decisive game.

Even if Manchester City is really careless, the championship will not slip away.

Guardiola is very strict, but he will not spoil the players' interest at this time.

When the players stopped cheering, Guardiola began to remind them what to do in the second half.

Concentrated and won Liverpool in one go.

Completely relieve the worries of the league.

Go all out to hit the Champions League, and of course there is the dispensable FA Cup.

Facts have also proved Guardiola's control over this team. Although these players are very relaxed in the midfield, none of them dare to relax when they are on the field.

In the second half, under the support of a powerful midfielder, Zhao Gang, Aguero Sterling still posed a very big threat to Liverpool's defense.

Klopp's face was serious. He was not worried about this game, but was thinking about his own team building policy.

If you want to win the Premier League championship, you must overthrow this giant team.

What kind of staffing is needed to handle Manchester City? ?

The defense needs to be improved, the midfield needs to be strengthened, and the striker must have enough impact.

However, Mane, Firmino, and Coutinho's striker strength is not too bad.

The defense must be upgraded to another level.

Just like Klopp thought, Liverpool's frontcourt configuration is not bad. After adapting in the first half, they started to counterattack in the second half.

The midfielder can't pass well, so the striker retreats and launches a counterattack directly from the midfielder!

All three have good ball-holding abilities. During the interval between Manchester City's offense, Liverpool launched several very threatening offenses.

The scene was not one-sided.

Especially Coutinho, although the defensive end is not small, but the offense can indeed carry the banner.

He dribbled the ball all the way from the midfield, cut in from the wing, passed through the center, and scored the ball with the last kick, finding Huo Jingangmane.

Mane's shot is beyond Bravo's reach.

In the 601st minute of the game, Liverpool scored a goal through a quick counterattack!

This goal instantly put Manchester City fans into a little panic.

If they score another goal and equalize, then the huge championship celebration they have prepared will be ruined!

The Liverpool players naturally refused to let themselves be reduced to the background board. After scoring a goal, they all fought bravely to take the lead.

It started a full-court press, which is what they do best.

After the confusion in the first half, they woke up!

Liverpool took the initiative to attack, trying to increase the rhythm of the game. At the same time, in this way, they saved their defense and reduced the pressure on the defense.

Milner's activity forced Zhao Gang to retreat to support the defense.

Liverpool counter kicked impressively.

After a goal was pulled back, the Manchester City players panicked. The only ones who can still remain motionless are Guardiola and Zhao Gang.

Guardiola has experienced too many such situations. If it is the Champions League final, he may be worried. This kind of league is destined to be the champion, and he is not worried at all.

Zhao Gang never felt that Liverpool could win the game.

Not only was he shouting to his teammates to slow down the rhythm and not get caught up in Liverpool's offensive and defensive rhythm, he even raised his hand from time to time to signal the audience to get restless.

The fans in the stands hardly quieted down for the next [-] minutes, and there were cheers and cheers everywhere.

Wave after wave.

Manchester City's midfield strength is still stronger than that of Liverpool. Once they stabilize, it will be difficult for Liverpool to succeed.

When Manchester City survived Liverpool's mad dog press, as the physical fitness of the Liverpool players declined, Stones made a very penetrating pass, allowing Aguero to be successfully turned offside, facing Liverpool's double central defender desperately back. Chasing, facing Mignolet's attack, Aguero pushed the ball diagonally with one kick.

Zhao Gang, who rushed to the horse, immediately pushed it lightly.

Empty door!

Three to one!
