, The fastest update to the latest chapter of the football player!
On April 26, the weekend after the end of the Champions League quarterfinals, on the 34th round of the Premier League, Liverpool went away to challenge West Brom.
Although West Brom is currently ranked in the middle and lower reaches, there is no pressure to relegation, and their desire to win the game is not high.
At the Hawthorn Stadium, Li Chenglong assisted Coutinho in the first half, which was the only goal in the game.
Liverpool scored three points from an affordable 1:0 away game and continued to maintain the initiative in the four-game situation.
In other matches in this round of the Premier League, only Manchester City among the four rivals, like Liverpool, managed to score three points.
Arsenal played a 0-0 tie with Chelsea at home, which is quite acceptable, after all, the opponent is a strong Chelsea.
At the same time, Chelsea also successfully won the Premier League championship this season through this game, winning four rounds ahead of schedule.
In the next four rounds of the Premier League, if Chelsea can score 12 points in a complete victory, they will be able to score 94 points and become the second-highest points champion in the history of the Premier League. This is only because they themselves in the 04/05 season. A record of 95 points created.
On the Manchester United side, after they lost to Chelsea in the last round, they seemed to have caused an adverse reaction within the team. In this round, they unexpectedly lost 0:3 to Everton and suffered two consecutive losses in the league.
At this critical moment in the battle for four, Manchester United suddenly lost a two-game losing streak. This blow is absolutely devastating.
After losing this round of the game, Manchester United's four-game situation has taken a turn for the worse and become precarious.
In the current Premier League standings, Chelsea won four rounds ahead of schedule with 82 points, Manchester City returned to second place with 66 points, Arsenal ranked third with 65 points, Liverpool and Manchester United both have 63 points, and Liverpool rely on The goal difference advantage overwhelmed Manchester United and returned to the top four.
The situation for Manchester United is really getting worse, they have been squeezed out of the top four, and the teams in front of them all have make-ups to play.
Manchester City and Arsenal have a make-up match, while Liverpool have two make-up matches.
Originally, when the English media were making suggestions for Manchester United, they mentioned that one of the four teams in the make-up match was a direct match between Liverpool and Manchester City, which would be beneficial to Manchester United.
If Liverpool and Manchester City make a make-up match, at least one team will lose points, which makes it impossible for both teams to get three points at the same time to put pressure on Manchester United.
But now, Manchester United loses the chain one after another and completely loses the initiative. Then Liverpool has the prerequisites to play tacitly with Manchester City.
As long as Liverpool and Manchester City deliberately tie in the next make-up match, they can each take what they need to get a point, and at the same time they will open a one-point gap with Manchester United, making Manchester United's four-four situation even worse.
In particular, Liverpool and Manchester City have a hostile relationship with Manchester United. One is a long-term rival in England and the other is a rival in the same city. Therefore, the two teams do have the possibility of cooperating to play a tacit ball to frame Manchester United.
※※※
After the 34th round of the league, as the Premier League champions have been determined, the most discussed by the English media is naturally the current chaotic competition situation.
Due to Manchester United's own mistakes and successive loss of points, the balance of the four-four has been completely biased to the three teams of Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City, but Manchester United is not without a chance. After all, there are four remaining rounds in the Premier League, and Manchester United will have another Direct phone meeting with Arsenal.
However, the most talked about in the English media at the moment is what will be the result of the next supplementary match between Liverpool and Manchester City.
First of all, there is no doubt that whoever wins this make-up match will have a greater four advantage.
But for Manchester United, they actually hope Manchester City will win when the two evils are the less.
At present, Manchester City has led Manchester United by three points, and Liverpool only relied on the goal difference advantage to overwhelm Manchester United. Therefore, only if Liverpool do not open the point difference, Manchester United can have a better chance to compete with Liverpool for four.
To put it simply, Manchester United's win is the most favorable for Manchester United, followed by a tie between the two teams, and Liverpool's win, which is the most unfavorable result for Manchester United.
On May 30, midweek after the 34th round of the Premier League, this is the day of the make-up match for Liverpool and Manchester City.
Although the English media before the game analyzed what the two teams were tying and framed Manchester United, in fact Liverpool prepared the game with the mentality of winning and taking three points.
A tie can only lead Manchester United by one point, but it can lead by three points when winning. Of course, you have to choose to win, not to mention that this is Liverpool's own home court.
Manchester City might have the mentality that it would be good to get one point in a tie, because after the start of the game, they didn't play well at Anfield, some were too conservative.
In the first ten minutes or so of the opening, it was basically Liverpool dominating the attack and completely suppressing Manchester City at Anfield.
Liverpool's first wave of attacks did not produce results, but after a short break, when the second wave of attacks came, Manchester City finally couldn't stand it.
In the 34th minute, Sterling dribbled the ball into the penalty area and forced the ball into the penalty area. Although he did not score, he forced Joe Hart to drop the ball and let it go.
The ball bounced back into the penalty area, and Li Chenglong appeared in the position, resisting Kompany's fill-in shot, and directly stabbed the ball into the opponent's goal.
"Goooooooal~~~~~~~"
"Super Bruce~~~ Make a fill shot!!"
"Bruce broke the deadlock for Liverpool, and this is also his 30th Premier League goal this season!"
"In the first season of joining the Premier League, Bruce scored 30 goals, which is an unprecedented record."
"Furthermore, Liverpool will have five Premier League games in the future. Bruce still has a chance to score goals. He even has a chance to break the Premier League's single-season goal record."
The Premier League’s single-season scoring record is 34, jointly maintained by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole.
Jackie Lee still has five games to play this season, and he does have a chance to break their record.
Five minutes after Li Chenglong scored, Sterling once again played an outstanding performance. He reluctantly picked the ball to pass Fernandinho in the front court, and then stepped on the penalty area line and volleyed. Joe Hart's gate fell again.
I have to say ~EbookFREE.me~ Sterling's competitive state is really good in this game, and he is the most active player in the game.
The supplementary shot of Jackie Lee just now was actually an opportunity created by Sterling's forced breakthrough.
Some time ago, Sterling was a bit going to leave the team, and Manchester City is one of his potential next home, he may want to perform well in front of this potential next home.
Li Chenglong and Sterling scored two goals in five minutes to help Liverpool get a two-goal lead in the first half.
Manchester City made a certain degree of counterattack in the second half, but when Liverpool took the initiative to slow down the rhythm, there was no big problem.
In the 75th minute, Aguero assisted Dzeko to regain a goal for Blue Moon, but this was the last goal of the game.
In this way, Liverpool at home 2:1 Lectra Manchester City, got this delayed make-up victory.
After winning Manchester City to get three points, Liverpool's league points came to 66 points, the same points as Manchester City, overwhelming Arsenal to become third, and also let Arsenal return to their familiar fourth place.
