Chapter 105: The smell of gunpowder

"Liverpool's attack was very simple, and their forward passes caused a lot of problems for the United defence!"

'Coutinho and Firmino are very fast, Rafael and Ashley Young are very difficult to defend.

Carlo Ancelotti frowned at this time, and Liverpool's attack made Manchester United's defence quite embarrassed.

In the face of Liverpool's simple and direct attacking method, Manchester United really doesn't have a good way, the opponent is to kick the ball to both sides, and let the wingers and Manchester United's full-backs compete for speed and technique.

And when United's midfielders went to fill in the flanks, Henderson's long-range shot in the middle was also quite threatening.

Liverpool's two moves did give Manchester United's defense quite a headache!

But Ancelotti doesn't have a good solution, after all, these people are available at the back, and the defenders in this game are not very comfortable with Ancelotti....

There is no good way to defend, and United can only find the field in attack.

Manchester United's players did not panic after conceding a goal, Manchester United players have experienced a lot of first goals this season, and the defensive instability is not unique to today.

......

Li Qingshan has touched the ball twice since the beginning of the game, once when he defended a corner kick in the backfield, and once when he restarted the ball after losing the ball... Even David De Gea had more touches than him, and Manchester United's strikers couldn't catch the ball, so you can imagine how meticulously Liverpool's preparation for this game was.

When the Manchester United players receive the ball, the Liverpool players will stick to it as soon as possible, pressing them to prevent them from passing the ball easily.

In the fifth minute of the game, after Pogba got the ball in the midfield, Wijnaldum immediately posted it, making Pogba easily unable to turn around.

Pogba first made a feint to split the ball to the side, then knocked the ball with his right foot and turned to pass!

Wijnaldum didn't hesitate to tackle Pogba after he turned around, and Pogba was tackled to the ground by Wijnaldum!

Referee Atkinson's whistle blows and Manchester United's free-kick in central midfield.

Pogba got up from the ground and prepared to take a quick free-kick, but the receiving points in front of him were almost limited by Liverpool.

Herrera was about to pick him up, but Lallana was clinging to him almost like a shadow.

The rest of the United players were also confined to death.

Pogba gave up on the idea of a quick serve, he left the ball in place and ran forward on his own.

Centre-back Marcos Rojo came up to take the free-kick in his place.

Manchester United's formation began to press, and it was time to pass the ball directly to the front!

Liverpool also took back the formation, and for Liverpool, after taking a one-goal lead, the game was much better!

Rojo stepped forward. Unlike Liverpool's long passes, Liverpool's long passes are to find Manchester United's defensive weak positions, allowing wingers to play speed to catch the ball, while Manchester United is more direct - that is, directly to the top of Li Qingshan's head!

It was a really effective move, Li Qingshan headed the ball over the edge of the penalty area line and headed the ball back to Pogba, who responded. With a simple long pass, United played the line to the front of Liverpool's penalty area, and with such a bridgehead up front, Manchester United easily broke the pressing of Liverpool's midfield.

Klopp glanced at Ancelotti with some envy.

Such a strong center forward is what every manager wants to have.

Sometimes you work hard to pass the ball slowly in the backfield to slowly press the opponent's formation back into the half, but Manchester United don't have to, they only need to pass the ball to the front, Li Qingshan can control most of the long balls, and then the opponent's formation has to shrink - otherwise Li Qingshan will directly turn around and threaten the goal.

Manchester United, with Li Qingshan as the core of the attack, can easily suppress the opponent's defense.

After Pogba received Li Qingshan's return pass, he immediately passed the ball diagonally to the right, and Mata received the football.

The Liverpool players came back very quickly, with Coutinho standing in front of Juan Mata as soon as possible.

Juan Mata parked the ball and didn't have a good chance to cross it, and Liverpool clearly had a targeted arrangement for United's cross!

Rafael finally had a chance to come up, and he was crushed by Coutinho in the opening stages, and the opponent kept swimming around him, so he didn't dare to go up and assist easily.

Rafael put on from behind Mata, Mata noticed Rafael's running, and when Rafael was about to run to the offside position, Mata decisively kicked the ball!

However, Milner was also very fast, and he tackled the ball straight to the ground, shoveling the ball out of bounds and knocking Rafael to the ground - after the tackle, Milner didn't even plan to close his feet!

Referee Atkinson did not award a foul on Milner, but pointed with his right hand and signaled Manchester United to take the throw-in!!

Milner's move and Atkinson's decision caused displeasure among the United players.

Juan Mata loudly protested Milner's move, but the referee ignored it.

Milner held his head high, ignoring Raphael, who had fallen to the ground.

Li Qingshan walked over, and Milner glanced at Li Qingshan defiantly. Li Qingshan stared at him without hesitation, and in the face of the opponent's provocation, Li Qingshan would never be afraid.

Herrera went to pull Raphael up, Raphael limped back, obviously this collision was still very painful, but fortunately it was just a hard injury, just a little slowly.

The smell of gunpowder from the Double Red Society is starting to come out!

Mata went to throw the throw-in, Li Qingshan protected the ball after receiving the ball on the side, made a feint to pass the ball to the middle and immediately turned to the baseline!

Milner didn't give up after being passed by Li Qingshan, and he immediately turned around and continued to follow.

Li Qingshan crossed as soon as he reached the bottom line, he kicked the ball up with his right foot, and the football drew an arc and flew to the penalty area!

But just as he crossed, Milner's feet came!

Li Qingshan was shoveled on the ankle by Milner, lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground!

Pogba's header in the box went high, but the attention of both sides was not there, and Ancelotti cursed and rushed to the sidelines.

"This is a deliberate act to hurt people!!"

Fortunately, he saw Li Qingshan get up from the ground immediately, which at least shows that Li Qingshan was not injured because of this tackle!

Li Qingshan was indeed not injured, but it was still very uncomfortable to be kicked in the ankle. His eyes widened and he was about to trouble Milner.

Milner faced the menacing Li Qingshan and felt fear for a while, and his eyes dodged.

Fortunately, at this time, Liverpool's captain Henderson came up, and the two captains were directly on the field!

Players from both sides quickly got involved, and referee Atkinson rushed in to separate the angry players from both sides.

Milner received the first yellow card of the game for a foul!

The smell of gunpowder in this game is starting to slowly come up!
