Liverpool started the game completely dominantly, Wen Sheng didn't expect it, and Brendan Rodgers didn't expect it either.

Brendan Rodgers believes that at least City's midfield control is not weak on paper and he must admit that they are stronger than Liverpool, but the fact that is now on the pitch is a clear indication that the City players are not in the groove.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Rodgers is keen to hope that Liverpool can seize the moment and preferably score a goal.

But Liverpool didn't have many shots on goal, they played the ball quickly and always went to Suya and Raheem Sterling when they had chances, but City defended quite successfully on the flanks, Zabaleta was in very good form, and Sterling didn't take advantage of it at all.

Liverpool's side can still rely on Suarez, in the first ten minutes Liverpool really did not have a few shots on goal, only three completed, Su Ya except for the first shot is quite threatening, the other two feet are not of high quality.

In the eleventh minute, something unfortunate happened, Lucas strained his muscles while defending De Bruyne, and there was no way, Rodgers had to replace Lucas with teenager Shelvey, so that Gerrard moved to the central midfield position, and then Shelvey replaced his previous position.

After Rodgers' substitution was made, Wen Sheng immediately conveyed instructions to the team, asking the team to press the formation up, and instructed Melo to strengthen their pressing for Xhelvey.

The introduction of Shelvey has greatly reduced Liverpool's midfield interception ability, and Xhervey's passing accuracy is relatively good, but his personal rhythm is slow.

Lucas' injury was a turning point, as City began to gradually regain their disadvantage on the pitch, possession increased and some chances were created.

The game as a whole was a bit dull, more than 20 minutes passed, and there were not many bright spots in the attack of both sides, and there was nothing wrong with the relative defense.

Manchester City's players have gradually realized that what Wen Sheng said is not wrong, and Liverpool is indeed a difficult bone to gnaw.

"Hold the pace!" Wen Sheng clapped his hands and beckoned his players, and now he hopes that the team can control the ball steadily, slowly put pressure on the opposition, try to press Raheem Sterling and Borini back into the Liverpool half, and then threaten the opposition through the wing middle.

Liverpool's side was unable to control the ball and could only allow Manchester City to advance.

Rodgers was completely expected of this situation, he knew that as long as the Manchester City midfield was in good shape, it would be difficult for Liverpool to control the ball, so Liverpool had quietly changed their attacking strategy, and the meaning of defensive counter-attacks was obvious.

'Manchester City have gradually controlled the form on the pitch and Dzeko was not in great form this game and did not play as well as he should under the tight watch of Skrtel and Coates. Sky Sports commentator Lee Lee. Dixon wasn't very happy with Dzeko's performance.

Wen Sheng touched his chin and thought quietly, Manchester City's aerial attack was greatly hindered, and the reason was that Dzeko was not in good shape, and the success rate of the battle for the top was relatively low.

Just when Wen Sheng was still thinking about countermeasures, an unexpected situation appeared.

In the 34th minute, Liverpool broke the ball at the back and played a counterattack, Sterling finally seized one of the few opportunities to connect two Manchester City players on the left side, and directly burned the fire to the Manchester City half.

Gerrard took a corner, Skrtel was out of position, and Melo, who was with Skrtel, was completely unable to stop the opponent's onslaught, allowing Skrtel to easily rush to the top and score.

Liverpool, playing at home, led Manchester City 1-0, and Rodgers jumped excitedly on the sidelines.

"Oo......oo

Manchester City's players are stunned, Skrtel's goal is too unreasonable, the root of the problem is Manchester City's own cause, first Melo is not tight, and then Van Dijk also made a mistake in the judgment of the landing point in the middle, which is equivalent to Manchester City himself surrendering the ball to Liverpool.

Skrtel's goal was not difficult at all.

……

"Wozhi! Can you score this kind of ball?! Ren Xing couldn't help but complain in the fan base, "What does Van Dijk do?!" ”

"Yes, Liverpool scored too easily!" There were fans who immediately followed.

"I'm afraid Manchester City will lose this game!"

"Little Bell, you are a dead Manchester United, you have so little confidence in Wen Shengli?!" The Shushan complained.

"I'm not confident in Wen Shengli, I'm not confident in Manchester City!"

"That's not the same?!"

"How can this be the same?!"

"Two of you, are we talking about football or listening to you two talk about cross talk?!"

On the Internet, this virtue, although everyone is an old acquaintance, they often quarrel when they watch the ball, and the topic is estimated to be 108,000 miles away from the theme.

It was only then that the Manchester City players remembered what Wen Sheng said before the game: "It is possible that we are behind!" ”。

At this time, Wen Sheng's voice sounded in his ears again, "Calm down!" Steady! Don't be in a hurry! ”

The players quickly woke up with the encouragement of Wen Sheng, and after the restart, they continued to play steadily, did not rush to equalize, and always insisted on controlling the ball, while Liverpool, on the other hand, were eager to play a wave of climaxes after the goal, and it was this mentality that allowed City to use the gap in their back to create a threat once or twice.

The Liverpool players quickly gave up pressing high and Brendan Rodgers hoarded heavily in midfield to limit City's advance in the middle, and for a time the two sides fell back into a stalemate.

After more than ten minutes, Kane finally blew the whistle and Liverpool temporarily led Manchester City 1-0 at home.

Wen Sheng has written down several problems in his small book, and has found a way to deal with it between halftime, and it is too late to adjust on the spot, so midfielder Wen Sheng decided to plan the team's tactics for the second half.

"Guys, how do you feel?!" One goal behind, and most of the responsibility for this goal is caused by mistakes on their side, Manchester City players thought that Wen Sheng would turn on a hair dryer, who knew that Wen Sheng still had a ridiculous smile on his face when he asked this sentence.

"It's really not a big deal to be down by one goal, I always believe we can equalise or even overtake, it's not a big problem!" None of the players spoke, and Wen Sheng had to ask and answer himself.

'The most important thing now is to understand what we can do in the second half to make up for the deficit and get points from this devil's home stadium!' Wen Sheng dragged over the tactical blackboard and began to explain the tactics on it.

If you want to equalize, you have to attack more aggressively, and you need to send the ball to the opponent's dangerous area.
