Chapter 878: .878 Bitter Champion

Before the end of the first half of the Community Shield game, the score could not change again. Liverpool led Arsenal into the locker room by one goal.
It was a semi-warm-up match, but the expressions of Situ Yunbing and Klopp were not easy.
The impact of Gareth Bale's injury on Liverpool may continue throughout the new season!
Now it is impossible for Liverpool to get a player who is stronger than Gareth Bale from the transfer market through signings, and it is not even realistic to even be close to Gareth Bale in strength.
Major transfers always need more time to pave the way!
It's not just by throwing money out that it can be finalized immediately.
Klopp is thinking about how to adjust tactics and respond because of Liverpool's strong play.
After the intermission, the two sides changed sides in the second half to fight again.
Arsenal's adjustment is to retreat Firmino's position. Mane and Sanchez rush forward, allowing Firmino to reconnect with their offensive.
In this way, when one of Liverpool's two midfielders assists in defending the wing, the space in the centre can be used by Arsenal.
Mbappe replaced Gareth Bale, and the Red Army still maintained a strong posture and a prosperous lineup on the court.
This is where Liverpool is now strong. If they are replaced by Chelsea's Hazard, Arsenal's Sanchez, Manchester City's Sterling, it is almost impossible for them to find a replacement at the same level.
But Situ Yunbing still has generals available to keep the team strong.
The two teams still maintained a fast-to-fly rhythm confrontation on the field.
In the 54th minute of the game, Sanchez restrained Casemiro from the right and knocked the ball back diagonally. Firmino's heel knocked the ball back to Ramsey who was inserted later, and then he quickly moved forward. Special naturally defended in the middle, and Ramsey sent a wonderful pass to Mane who cut in. The latter stopped and took the opportunity to cut into the left rib of the penalty area, but the kick shot was a bit too haste, which caused the football to hit directly. Side net.
Klopp clapped and nodded from the sidelines. Although the ball didn't score, he played it out!
Prove that his adjustment is still effective.
Liverpool's strong attack from the wing still presses Monreal to the death!
In the 59th minute of the game, Mbappé made a gesture in front of Monreal, who was already dizzy, knocked the ball back to assist Azpilicueta, but pulled the ball at his feet to change direction, PULL-Back-V!
After the change of direction and breakthrough, the bottom turned into a cross-cutting line. Mbappe saw Wijnaldum and Matip attacking himself after scoring into the penalty area. Klopp also strengthened his back to the penalty area. The depth range.
Mbappe calmly knocked the ball back diagonally, and Azpilicueta, who was on the edge of the penalty area, followed a half-high pass and sent the ball!
The pass was extremely threatening, bypassing Koscielny's back and flying to the back of the penalty area, and saw Sane hit the ball and hit the ball directly and sent the ball into the near corner of the goal!
Liverpool's attack is playing too fast!
Arsenal couldn't react completely when defending!
"Sane scored twice! Liverpool lead Arsenal 3:1 in the Community Shield!
Mbappe and Azpilicueta had a good chemical reaction, and the return after this wave of breakthrough also showed Mbappe's calmness.
Koscielny's defensive attention was constrained by Lewandowski, and Sane, who was screened, succeeded in a hit!
I have to say that Arsenal's left-back defense is an obvious weakness!
But Klopp's headache has no solution. "
Indeed, a good full-back has a price but no market, and Klopp is even thinking about whether he can transform Milner into a left-back position.
But last season's synthetic midfielder had to re-run, but the fierce competition in the Premier League would not give him time.
Liverpool still maintained the main offensive position after leading the score. In the second half, Arsenal's frontcourt offensive system performed better and better after a period of running-in.
In the 68th minute of the game, when Van Dijk's header cleared to the center zone but Milner took the lead, Arsenal's continuous fast break followed.
Mane restrained Kanter from the left. After knocking the ball across the center, Firmino quickly passed the ball back, and Ramsey stopped the ball in the open and sent the ball to the right side of the penalty area.
Sanchez, who cut inside, chose to stop and sway Coulibaly when he touched the ball, and took advantage of the difference in tempo to rush forward. Coulibaly immediately turned and shoveled, but Sanchez took the first step to knock the ball across the middle. zone.
Firmino followed up with a flying tackle that did not give Van Dijk a chance to clear the siege. The football was stabbed by Firmino into the bottom left of the goal.
The distance is too close, Ter Stegen has no time to make a save and block action!
"Firmino pulled a goal back for Arsenal! Arsenal's cooperation with this ball is pleasing to the eye!
Klopp's adjustment in midfield gradually took effect in the second half, and this goal also brought the suspense of the game back!
Arsenal’s performance today made us shine. Their performance is much more stable than last season. Klopp led the team to only 6 points away from Liverpool last season, but their performance in the second half of the season was not Well, on the one hand, the lineup is thin, and it is difficult to maintain a strong combat effectiveness and state. On the other hand, his team is not stable enough. Sometimes because of the first to lose the ball, he loses his mind and collapses directly!
But today when facing Liverpool, we did not see Arsenal become panicked when two goals were behind. On the contrary, they were able to recover one goal through unremitting efforts. This represents the progress and maturity of Arsenal!
Now we have reason to believe that Arsenal will definitely be one of the strong contenders for the Premier League title in the new season! "
Seeing that Situ Yunbing lost the ball, he was already in a bad mood because of Gareth Bale's serious injury. He made a decisive substitution.
Henderson replaced Sane on the stage.
In this way, Liverpool's play is almost the same as last season's Champions League final against Real Madrid.
In this way, a tight line of defense can be laid from the midfield to the backcourt to contain the opponent's fast attack under the premise of maximizing its own offensive threat.
When Liverpool changed again, Klopp's expression was a bit ugly.
He naturally studied the classic battle between Liverpool and Real Madrid in the Champions League final last season.
Liverpool's midfield strength rose straight after Henderson's appearance!
And because they continue to be suppressed by the wing, the full-backs dare not rush forward to participate in the attack.
As a result, the offensive and defensive ends become a little daunting, and the overall situation is extremely passive.
Lewandowski's long shot in front of the penalty area almost made Liverpool another victory.
After the substitution, Liverpool almost reached a new balance. Although the threat created was somewhat reduced, the improvement in defense made it difficult for Arsenal to make a chance.
In the 83rd minute, Sanchez made a surprise attack and cut into the right side of the penalty area. When he passed the ball back to the inverted triangle before the baseline, Ramsey, who followed up, shot the ball to the right of the goal. In the next position, Ter Stegen made a key save and blocked the ball in the penalty area. Coulibaly rushed to clear the ball before Firmino made a supplement!
The scene is very thrilling!
"Ter Stegen's wonderful save prevented Ramsey's shot!
Liverpool almost equalized by Arsenal! "
Klopp turned around in disappointment and shook his head, but when he turned around again he applauded the players.
In all fairness, Arsenal's performance today has exceeded his expectations.
Liverpool began to slow down and turn to control.
The very high intensity of the game made Arsenal in the final period of the game unable to initiate a crazy counter grab.
When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the cheers of the Red Army fans resounded all over the world!
Although Arsenal lost the Community Shield, the Gunners fans were at least not too disappointed.
At the very least, Arsenal's performance in the game cannot be described as bad.
Situ Yunbing was totally unhappy, walked to Klopp to shake hands after the game, only said "See you in a week!" and then turned and walked into the court.
A week later, the new Premier League season begins!
Liverpool opener will go to North London Emirates Stadium to challenge Arsenal!
The English football always doesn't consider the preparation of the two teams at all, just want to attract the world's attention to the Premier League at the beginning of the season!
What is more exciting than the opener, last season's championship and runner-up contest?
After losing this Community Shield, Klopp's mood is not too bad, at least his team is no longer a rout when fighting Liverpool!
In the dark, it is always right to be in the light.
When Situ Yunbing led his team to win the Community Shield prize at the New Wembley Stadium, his smile looked a little reluctant.
Holding a community shield, Gareth Bale is seriously injured over there!
Even after the Fleet Street game, it was reported: Situ Yunbing won the most bitter championship!
Everyone knows that the tasteless Community Shield champion is worthless compared to Gareth Bale's serious injury!
But what Liverpool can comfort themselves is that it is better than Gareth Bale who was seriously injured and lost the championship!
Situ Yunbing personally went to the hospital after the game and accompanied Gareth Bale for a detailed examination. After the doctor's diagnosis report and treatment recommendations came out, Situ Yunbing had never felt so uncomfortable.
Gareth Bale needs to recuperate for up to four months!
This is the worst injury of his career so far.
Counting the days, it won’t be able to return until December.
At that time, it was the intensive stage.
This almost announced Gareth Bale's farewell to 2016!
Liverpool held an emergency meeting. For the continuation of the dynasty, Situ Yunbing could not ignore Gareth Bale’s injury. At this time, even if signing up will be very difficult, he still has to try.
The top wingers in European football who can catch his eyes and can really contribute to Liverpool are definitely one of the few.
Among the available players, Liverpool could only send a purchase fax to Hamburg, asking for Marco Royce for £60 million!
