After defeating Arsenal in the away game, for Liverpool, the first step to test their current strength has been achieved, and Rogers is full of hope for using the current team lineup to play results.
And the team’s second touchstone in a row is of course the "Blue Moon" Manchester City, which ranks second in the league today.
Three weeks later, Liverpool came to Manchester again, but this time they have to challenge the city’s upstart, Manchester City.
Defending champion Manchester City, although it seems that there is no way to pose a substantive threat to the top Manchester United this season, it still firmly occupies the second place in the standings and still has a 6-point gap with the third Chelsea.
Among them, Manchester City's home record is one of the strongest in the Premier League. So far in the Premier League this season, Manchester City has achieved 9 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at home. The only loss was a 2-3 loss to the leaders. Manchester United, it can be said that after years of huge investment in oil capital, today's Manchester City has finally become the Premier League's giants as they wish.
Although I felt that Liverpool were on the right track before the game, all the pre-match predictions were still inclined to Manchester City's undefeated.
It's just that after half of the game, Liverpool took the lead in losing the ball. It took only 20 minutes to overtake the score. The away game ended the first half with a score of 2-1.
Manchester City played a wonderful frontcourt in the 22nd minute. Silva and Aguero played a wonderful pass in the left area of the penalty area line. Aguero pulled the ball out of the encircling circle on the side and directly assigned to Silva at the penalty area line. .
When Silva caught up with Liverpool's defense, he took the ball and passed a very beautiful through ball. Milner swiftly penetrated the bottom from the left and received Silva's pass directly. Breaking into the restricted area created a huge threat.
Yang Feng threw forward to block Milner's further action, but while Yang Feng's block was not fully in place, Milner had already crossed the ball to the goal.
With a quick pass, Reina fell to the ground before he could save the ball, and Dzeko, who had already been inserted in front of the goal, directly hit the net under the defense of the defender against Skrtell, and scored for Manchester City. Lead.
After falling behind, Liverpool did not appear flustered, but steadily carried out its offensive tactics on the away field.
In the 28th minute of the game, Liverpool launched an offensive in the frontcourt. Glen Johnson launched a breakthrough on his right side, causing Manchester City's defense to concentrate on the wing.
Although Glen Johnson did not pass the ball in the first time, after Manchester City intercepted the ball, Liverpool made a full force on the spot. Barry did not play the ball in time in the backcourt, and Gerrard and Suarez completed the closed steal. .
and the ball rolls to the top of the arc in the penalty area. Sturridge, who had been in the middle of the road, did not hesitate to face the ball, and finished a shot directly on the back of his left foot.
But the ball did not lift up, but directly added a strong spin, walked on the ground, and flew to the lower right corner of the goal.
Manchester City's defensive players were unable to react to this ground ball, while Joe Hart on the goal line was limited by the interference of perspective. When he saw the football suddenly rolling out of the crowd in the middle, he did it again. The action is too late.
The ball quickly rubbed the goal right post and rolled into the goal.
Facing his first team and scoring an away goal, Sturridge chose to use an uncelebrated way to repay Manchester City for his cultivation...
And the score of 1 to 1 in the half, obviously there is no way to satisfy the appetite of the offensive players on both sides.
In the following games, the two teams fought against each other, hoping to use offense to defeat the opponent's defense.
and constantly attacking, it was Liverpool that achieved results first.
Liverpool’s midfielder counterattacked with a steal. Sturridge dribbled the ball directly to the left to complete the bottom pass. Although Suarez was the only contact point in the middle, Manchester City’s defensive players had an absolute advantage.
But Manchester City centre-back Lescott still completed the header clearance to be safe and cleared the ball out of the penalty area.
But insurance sometimes does not mean safety.
Gerrard, who followed up in the middle, volleyed directly against Lescott's clearance ball at a position more than 30 meters away from the goal with no one around!
"Meet Hartmund!" It is always the most plausible saying, Joe Hart, who has his own background board attribute, has once again become the background board for Gerrard's wonderful long shots.
A shocking world wave, Gerrard overtook Liverpool in the 38th minute of the first half.
In this game, Liverpool, who played without fear of the attack, finally showed his "fangs" to the world!
Rogers, after more than half of the season's personnel deployment and tactical reforms, Liverpool finally began to show the strength of the Premier League's top teams.
In the guest scene, they played well against the second Manchester City, and even took the lead at halftime. It can be seen how strong this Liverpool team is now.
Like the last game against Arsenal, Liverpool, after taking the lead, began to focus on building their own defense.
As a result of this game, Jose Enrique finally recovered from injury. Liverpool’s defense on the left has obviously improved to a level. Facing the impact of Manchester City’s penetration, it is no longer as unbearable as before, and can liberate Yang Feng more. Help other defenses and make up for shortcomings.
Manchester City’s offensive style is similar to Arsenal. For Liverpool players, defending a team with a passing and controlling style has been able to grasp the defensive points well.
It’s just that Manchester City’s players are stronger, so the threat to Liverpool is definitely greater than Arsenal.
However, after the defense on the left side has improved, the defensive power that Liverpool's other defenses can obtain has become more, which is equivalent to a disguised increase in the defensive level of the previous defense of Arsenal, so Liverpool's defense has completed the game. It's pretty good.
Especially Yang Feng, the core of the rear defense, once again used his excellent defensive performance to complete defensive tasks again and again.
Especially in the 78th minute of the game, when Manchester City had a counterattack opportunity, Aguero used a dexterous run to throw off defender Scott, and received a long pass from Silva on the right side of the penalty area. At this time, Yang Feng Originally defending Dzeko's counterattack on the left to follow up, Reina saw that the situation was not good, and when Skrtel lost his position, he had chosen to attack and blocked Aguero's angle of shot.
But Aguero flexibly chose to take the ball out of the penalty area, get rid of Rena's interference, and then lob the goal from a small angle. Seeing the direction of the football fall, it will fly directly into the empty goal. Manchester City players are ready to celebrate, and Liverpool players , Especially when Reina was already desperate, Yang Feng once again became Liverpool's hero. U U Reading www.uukanshu.cOM
Abandoning Dzeko's Yang Feng on the left, he flew directly to the goal, then with the help of inertia, he jumped into the air and threw his body flat, and then stretched his left foot straight in the air, using a volley side hook to move the ball to the goal. Hooking it out, Yang Feng himself fell directly into the penalty area after clearing the siege.
Henderson, who returned to the penalty area, made a clearance before Dzeko came to make a supplementary shot. Yang Feng just used a magical relief, once again relying on the defense to enter the Premier League highlights...
Under a superb defensive performance, Yang Feng used more conscientious basic defensive actions, used the lock of space, used the deployment of the team's defensive players, and Yang Feng himself destroyed the opponent's pass in the first half. Although Manchester City's offensive is in full swing, the offensive opportunities they have won are actually not many.
It was another victory that relied on offense in the first half and defense in the second half. It was another 2-1 score. Perhaps no one would have thought that Liverpool could win the away game against two giants in a row. Two victories.
Even the second-ranked Manchester City has no way to stop Liverpool from advancing in their own devil's home game. So who can stop Liverpool now?
West Bromwich is obviously not the team that can stop Liverpool now.
At Anfield, Liverpool scored their four-game winning streak in the league with a 3-0 victory. It also proved that Liverpool, who has found the right path forward, is so unstoppable! ntent
