In the 15th minute of the game, Liverpool's forward Roberto Firmino was dribbling forward. He flexibly shuttled between Manchester United's defense lines, like a sharp knife, trying to tear open Manchester United's defense.

At this time, Manchester United captain Harry Maguire made timely defense and appeared on his way forward. His tall and mighty body was like a solid fortress. When Roberto Firmino approached, Harry Maguire was not afraid. He stood firmly and focused on his opponent's every move.

Roberto Firmino tried to pass Harry Maguire with a fake move, but Harry Maguire remained unmoved with his excellent defensive awareness and keen judgment. Seeing this, Roberto Firmino accelerated his pace and tried to break through by force. However, Harry Maguire showed his tough style. He decisively stretched out his long legs, like a steel barrier, tightly attached to Roberto Firmino. In the physical confrontation, Harry Maguire was not at all inferior. He used his strong body to firmly block Roberto Firmino outside.

With Roberto Firmino's forced breakthrough, Harry Maguire responded quickly. He stepped forward, accurately judged the landing point of the ball, and then stretched out his foot without hesitation, successfully destroying the ball out of the baseline. The whole action was clean and full of power.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Theo Fernandez, a young and energetic left-back, rushed towards Liverpool's defense like a flash of lightning. He flexibly used his dribbling skills, and the football under his feet seemed to be cast by magic, tightly sticking to his feet.

Liverpool right back Trent Alexander-Arnold and center back Joel Matip reacted immediately and double-teamed from two directions; facing the defense of the two Liverpool players, Theo Fernandes was not afraid. With his excellent change of direction and acceleration ability, he cleverly passed Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joel Matip one after another. His figure was flying on the court, as elusive as the wind.

Liverpool's other center back Virgil van Dijk also rushed over quickly when Theo Fernandes passed the ball, and the ball went out of the baseline, and Manchester United won a precious corner kick.

At the moment the corner kick was taken, the atmosphere in the whole stadium was extremely tense.

Erling Haaland, the young Norwegian genius, had been ready in the penalty area. His tall body was like an iron tower, full of strength. Erling Haaland's eyes were fixed on the flying football, and his body leaned back slightly, ready to meet that critical moment. When the ball flew over his head, Erling Haaland jumped high like a ferocious lion, and his header was powerful and full of power. Unfortunately, the ball went slightly out of the goal. The whole stadium suddenly cheered for the survival.

Liverpool immediately launched a counterattack, and their speed was amazing. Sadio Mane, a striker with both speed and skill, received a long pass from Trent Alexander-Arnold and ran all the way. His speed was dazzling, and Manchester United's defenders could only look on.

Facing Harry Maguire's defense, Sadio Mane showed his superb skills. He used feints flexibly and cleverly passed Harry Maguire. Although Harry Maguire was tall and mighty, his disadvantage of slow turning was exposed in front of Sadio Mane's flexibility. After passing Harry Maguire, Sadio Mane shot low without hesitation. The football flew towards Manchester United's goal like a cannonball.

However, Manchester United's goalkeeper David De Gea once again showed the demeanor of a world-class goalkeeper. His eyes were focused and calm, always paying attention to Sadio Mane's shooting action. At the moment the football flew, David De Gea reacted quickly. His body bounced up like a spring, and his hands were raised high. He used his hands to steadily block Mane's low shot, defusing this threatening attack. The entire Anfield stadium suddenly burst into a sigh!

As the game progressed, the gunpowder smell of both sides became stronger and stronger.

In the midfield area, a fierce fight broke out like a storm. Dani Olmo, the creative Spanish midfielder, has fighting spirit in his eyes. He is flexible, like a spiritThe cheetah shuttled freely on the court. His opponent, Liverpool's midfielder Giorginho Wijnaldum, is also an extraordinary player. Wijnaldum is strong, with a firm look in his eyes, and exudes a calm and powerful aura.

When the football rolled between the two, they collided instantly like two planets attracted by gravity. Dani Olmo took the lead in stretching out his foot to control the ball, and Giorginho Wijnaldum was not to be outdone and immediately blocked it with his body. The two bodies were instantly pressed together, and a fierce physical confrontation began.

Dani Olmo tried to get rid of Giorginho Wijnaldum's defense with his flexible turn, but Giorginho Wijnaldum stuck tightly in position with his strong body. Dani Olmo showed a stubborn look on his face. He was unwilling to be suppressed by his opponent, so he tried harder to control the ball. Giorginho Wijnaldum was also inspired by Dani Olmo's tenacity to fight even harder. He defended tightly and refused to give in.

As the confrontation intensified, the two's movements became bigger and bigger. Dani Olmo kept bumping Giorginho Wijnaldum with his shoulder, trying to squeeze out a space. Giorginho Wijnaldum used his arms to push Dani Olmo hard, not letting him control the ball comfortably. Their eyes were full of provocation and dissatisfaction, as if two angry lions were fighting for territory.

"Get out of my way!" Dani Olmo roared, his face full of sweat and anger. "Dream! This ball is ours." Giorginho Wijnaldum did not give in, and his response was also full of power.

The surrounding players gathered around and tried to separate the two. But Dani Olmo and Giorginho Wijnaldum seemed to be in a state of frenzy, still tightly entangled. Their bodies kept twisting and pushing, and no one was willing to let go first. Some players began to shout loudly, hoping that they would calm down, but the two of them could not listen at all.

The situation became more and more tense, and the conflict was about to break out. Dani Olmo suddenly shook hard and broke free from Giorginio Wijnaldum's restraints, and Giorginio Wijnaldum was also staggered by this force. After he stabilized his body, he immediately rushed towards Dani Olmo, and a more intense conflict was about to occur.

At this critical moment, the referee quickly intervened like a messenger of justice. The referee took a firm step, blew the whistle, and rushed into the crowd. His eyes were serious and majestic, and he gestured decisively to separate the two.

Manchester United replaced Dani Olmo, who was struggling in the midfield confrontation, with Aurelien Chuameni, trying to strengthen Zhou Mingchang's ability to strangle and steal; while Liverpool replaced Giorginio Wijnaldum with James Milner, trying to strengthen the offensive ability in the midfield.

His action was clean and neat, without giving the opponent any chance to react.

Marco Verratti did not disappoint Manchester United fans, he showed his style as a midfield master; he did not stop the ball, but directly sent a fine through pass in the midfield. This pass was like a scalpel, accurately cutting through Liverpool's defense.

The ball flew towards the Liverpool penalty area at a very fast speed. At this time in the Liverpool penalty area, Erling Haaland and Romelu Lukaku, two strong forwards, were fully prepared.

The ball passed to Erling Haaland's position and came toRomelu Lukaku's feet. Romelu Lukaku immediately showed his physical advantage. He used his strong body to lean on Trent Alexander-Arnold who was defending him, and then turned quickly.

Trent Alexander-Arnold tried to stop Romelu Lukaku's breakthrough, but he found himself powerless in front of Romelu Lukaku's physical advantage. Romelu Lukaku's power is like a flood and beast, unstoppable. He rushed to Liverpool's goal with the ball, with only that one goal in his eyes.

Not far from the goal, Romelu Lukaku slowed down, adjusted his breathing, then calmly raised his foot and shot low. The ball flew towards the goal like a cannonball. Although Liverpool's goalkeeper Alisson Becker made a save, he was still a step slower.

The ball went into the net, and Manchester United, who played away, led Liverpool 1:0.

Manchester United players rushed to Romelu Lukaku, the goal scorer, and hugged each other tightly. Some of them patted Romelu Lukaku's back vigorously, praising his wonderful performance; some of them shouted excitedly, and the sound echoed over the stadium. There was a gleam in their eyes, which was the desire for victory and the cherishment of the hard-won goal.

The team's head coach Mourinho stood on the sidelines, holding his hands high and shouting loudly, encouraging the players to continue in this state.
