Chapter 487: .487 swallowed like a tiger!

Old Trafford, Dream Theater.
In a passionate hustle and bustle, Manchester United and Liverpool's two starters walked into the stadium together.
Every player is full of energy!
This is the most watched focus of English football!
"Good afternoon, friends and spectators, and welcome to the first round of the 22nd round of the English Premier League at Manchester Old Trafford Stadium!
The league leader Reds Liverpool came to challenge Manchester United, the second-ranked Red Devils in the league!
Before the start of the game, Liverpool had a 7-point advantage over Manchester United. Ferguson once said that a 7-point lag is not a gap that makes Manchester United feel difficult to catch up. He once led the team to reverse the opponent and win the championship with 12 points behind!
Manchester United always seems to have a tradition of reversing opponents, but Liverpool coach Situ Yunbing has maintained an amazing record. He has never been reversed in the league in the past four seasons coaching, and he has won in all four seasons. To the champion of the league!
Liverpool fans certainly hope that Situ Yunbing can maintain this record.
Let us look at the starting lineups of the two teams today.
Manchester United started 4231 today.
Goalkeeper: De Gea.
Defenders: Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra.
Midfielder: Ashley Young, Cleverly, Shinji Kagawa, Carrick, Welbeck.
Forward: Van Persie.
Liverpool started 433 today.
Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.
Defenders: Glen Johnson, Scottell, Benatia, Enrique.
Midfielder: Eriksson, Coutinho, Casemiro.
Forwards: Sterling, Suarez, Gareth Bale.
What is more surprising is that Lucas did not enter the starting list. The outside world predicts that when Gerrard is absent, Situ Yunbing should use Lucas to strengthen the defense in the middle, but today they seem to be more willing to devote their energy to offense. in!
It is worth mentioning that in the stands today we saw the figure of Real Madrid coach Mourinho. His Real Madrid will meet Manchester United in the Champions League knockout round, so coming here today is a spy on the military, and England coach Hodgson Also watch the battle in the stands. "
Situ Yunbing and Ferguson stood on the sidelines with serious faces. Ferguson knew that Liverpool were not good people today, but he did not expect that Situ Yunbing seemed to have the persistent idea to show off at Old Trafford!
Situ Yunbing started stud!
Although there are players such as Mahrez, Vardi, Lucas and others on the bench, it can be said that Liverpool's starting lineup today is that they can present the strongest offensive combination!
Then this can be expected after the start of the game, either Liverpool will be the main goal, or lose control and be directly destroyed by Manchester United!
This is a bit risky. In such an important game, show all the cards at the beginning, leaving no room for retreat and control, because once adjusted, there is basically not much room for forward and backward space. Although there is, doing so would be a sign of retreat. If it is in a disadvantaged state, it will basically declare that it is unable to conquer Old Trafford.
But Situ Yunbing has confidence in his team!
With a whistle from the referee Weber, the game officially began!
Manchester United took the lead in launching the offensive. Amid the cheering of the Red Devils fans, the Manchester United midfielder encountered a crazy counter-grab from the Liverpool midfielder. Shinji Kagawa, Cleverly and Carrick completed a quick pass after completing a quick pass. The offense was moved to the right.
Ashley Young hopped the ball in front of Enrique and made a cross. The football went straight to the center of the penalty area. Van Persie stepped in to find a direct goal, but Benatia headed the ball back. The top is beyond the bottom line.
Manchester United corner kick attack, Casemiro nodded before the penalty area to clear the goal.
Suarez was fouled by Rafael as soon as he stopped the ball near the wing in the backcourt. Weber whistled for a penalty and Rafael gave a warning.
Manchester United's offensive after the opening did not reflect aggressiveness.
When Liverpool began to control the ball and organize the offense, they played a mercury-filled pass in the front court.
Eriksson and Coutinho hit the wall and broke through Cleverly’s defense zone and got rid of Shinji Kagawa. When Carrick was on the verge of an enemy, Coutinho and Suarez completed the wall collision cooperation. Then sent a through ball to the left of the penalty area.
Gareth Bale made a strong cut around the perimeter and caught up with Rafael. However, in the acceleration, the physical confrontation pushed Rafael away. The latter was a little embarrassed at a glance. He wanted to foul but because he could only make small moves in the penalty area. .
Ferdinand quickly returned to the defense to block Gareth Bale, but the latter shot the ball first!
The football blasted to the far corner of the goal. The responsive De Gea flew in place and touched the ball with a single palm. The football flew out of the bottom line outside the far post!
De Gea stood up indifferently. The Spanish goalkeeper is now the new goalkeeper of the Red Devils. No one questioned him, especially in the context of the Red Devils' increasingly declining defensive system.
The Red Devils fans cheered for De Gea!
Gareth Bale didn't show any regrets.
"De Gea made a wonderful save! De Gea's ability to react in front of the goal line is really amazing!
He rejected Gareth Bale’s powerful shot, but on the other hand, Liverpool’s frontcourt penetration in this wave of offensive played really fast, and Eriksson and Coutinho had a good chemical reaction. Pass, run, pass, run, their high-quality pass makes Manchester United defense very passive. "
Liverpool took a tactical corner kick, and Casemiro tried a long shot from the periphery but sent the ball directly to the stands.
Situ Yunbing applauded from the sidelines, what the team needs first is momentum!
When Manchester United tried to attack from positional warfare, they were still able to control the ball in the midfield, but from the midfield to the forward to create a threatening offensive, this link was not as smooth as Liverpool.
When Shinji Kagawa sent Welbeck a wonderful pass in the middle of the front court, Welbeck tried to break the ball directly into the penalty area when inside the cut. This attempt was brave but irrational. Scotter and Ge Len Johnson teamed up to cut the ball.
Welbeck stumbled and almost fell to the ground after he was intercepted.
Liverpool's fast break was launched quickly. After more than half of the season, the tacit understanding of the Red Army is naturally not a problem.
Casemiro crossed the ball diagonally from the backcourt to the right.
Sterling encountered Cleverly's quick shovel when he hopped the ball forward quickly. He quickly passed the ball diagonally in the middle and then bypassed Cleverly to move forward.
Suarez crossed the ball diagonally to the right under Carrick's defense and continued to hand over to Sterling to push forward.
The Liverpool striker hit the front line, and Manchester United's back line retreated and contracted. When Evra was about to steal the ball, Sterling knocked the ball diagonally back to the center.
In the process of pushing the offensive in the long-distance attack, the Manchester United defender line resisted the attack of the Red Army Liverpool striker, but the Manchester United midfielder could not effectively contain the players who inserted after the Liverpool midfielder.
When Coutinho stopped in the middle and continued to push forward, Carrick moved quickly to make a forcing, and Coutinho slashed the ball to the right in front of the penalty area.
Eriksson quickly jumped into the ball and shot!
The football flew straight to the corner of the goal, De Gea moved two steps quickly and swooped to the limit to block the ball in the small penalty area with a single palm!
When Suarez rushed forward and was about to make a supplementary shot, Vidic took the lead to get stuck and then took the lead to kick the ball out of the baseline!
"De Gea made another contribution! This is a great save! Eriksson's shot was already close to the goal, but De Gea still defended the Red Devils goal!"
De Gea made two contributions in a short time after the opening, which is enough to inspire people, but this is not a good sign!
Three minutes later, Manchester United's frontcourt offensive was equally fast and fierce. When Shinji Kagawa was under pressure from Casemiro and Eriksson's defense, the Japanese midfielder flexibly protected the ball and found an open space to pass the ball diagonally to Cleverly. , The latter took the opportunity to kick the ball diagonally to the front of the penalty zone in the middle.
Van Persie pulled the ball with his foot in front of Benatia and turned around, but he swayed the ball in the opposite direction and then pulled out an angle and shot directly!
The football crossed a parabola and flew to the upper left position of the goal center.
Although the angle is not tricky, the power and surprise are the best!
Ter Stegen took off on the spot and flew to block the ball with a single palm!
Scotter immediately returned to the defense and knocked the ball across the wing, Glen Johnson controlled the ball.
"Wow! Liverpool goalkeeper Ter Stegen also made a wonderful save!
Will this England derby be a contest between goalkeepers? "
Manchester United fans regret that Van Persie’s shot failed to score, and Ferguson also felt a bit disappointed.
But there was no time to give them self-pity, and Liverpool's fast break came down quickly.
When Eriksen's midfielder quickly dribbled to the offensive danger zone, he tried to deliver the shells to Suarez, but the pass was blocked by Ferdinand first.
Carrick played forward under the pressure of Coutinho's counter-attack, but what was unexpected is that Casemiro quickly overwhelmed the half and broke the ball first.
Cleverly failed to receive Carrick's pass!
After Casemiro intercepted the ball, he quickly passed the ball diagonally to the left of the front court.
As soon as Gareth Bale stopped the ball, he was fiercely pressed by Rafael.
Gareth Bale immediately knocked the ball across the middle and ran forward after the ball!
Rafael should regret it a bit, but he should also be conscious. When he can't steal the ball successfully, Gareth Bale will not be able to catch up whether he breaks through the ball or moves forward without the ball!
When Gareth Bale rushed to the outside of the penalty area, Coutinho had already kicked the ball and passed it diagonally to his running line.
Gareth Bale took advantage of the opportunity to lap the ball and cut towards the left side of the penalty area!
Ferdinand was forced to withdraw and block Gareth Bale’s route, but Gareth Bale simply chose to knock back the ball diagonally when Ferdinand was two meters away!
Suarez followed up in front of the goal to drive Vidic to retreat. Carrick went to defend Coutinho, but Gareth Bale's pass was an oblique pass to the right side of the penalty area.
Eriksson quickly hit the ball forward, stopped the ball and adjusted a step and kicked the shot on the spot!
De Gea was moving towards the right goal post, but what made him surprised was that Eriksson's shot kicked the ball to the upper left corner of the goal!
De Gea immediately stopped moving in the opposite direction, but it was too late. He gritted his teeth and forced a jump to save, but his arm was still one meter away from the football!
The football flew into the upper left corner of the goal shockingly!
