At 3 p.m. on January 16, 2019, a key match in the 23rd round of the 2018-2019 Premier League season was contested at Anfield Stadium, and Liverpool hosted Crystal Palace.

The two sides have met nearly 20 times in the history of the Premier League, and Liverpool has an absolute advantage with 1 win, 2 draws and 5 losses.

The last time the two sides met was in August at the start of last year's league game, when Liverpool won 3-0 on the road, and Li Qing scored a goal and provided an assist in that game.

Crystal Palace are now 14th in the Premier League with 22 points, worse than Liverpool's opponents in the previous round, Brighton, and the team has already begun to fight for relegation.

However, in the last round, Crystal Palace lost 1:2 at home to Watford, but in the last five games, 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, the defeats were all small defeats to the opponent, and basically every game has scored, the team is currently in good shape.

This is all thanks to Liverpool's 'old friend' in the Crystal Palace team, Crystal Palace manager Hodgson, who was once Liverpool's manager, and Liverpool's hopeful star Benteke is now also playing for Crystal Palace.

Therefore, the arrangement of the coaches of both sides in this game, as well as the on-the-spot command, will be a highlight, but judging from the overall strength and the current situation of the two teams, most people think that Liverpool will win easily.

Before Liverpool's match with Crystal Palace, a one-minute ceremony was held at Anfield Stadium to pay tribute to the 100th anniversary of legendary manager Bob Paisley, and to remember Peter Thompson, who passed away some time ago.

Peter Thompson was a witness to Liverpool's glory days in the sixties and seventies, and under the leadership of the coach at the time, Peter Thompson helped Liverpool win their first FA Cup title as a striker.

And Bob Paisley, is one of the few meritorious managers in Liverpool's history who can match Xiangshuai Bill Shankley, after taking over the Liverpool coaching whip from Shankly, Paisley led Liverpool to create a more brilliant chapter for the team.

Bob Paisley's tenure at Liverpool has included six league titles, three European Cups, one UEFA Cup, three League Cups, five Community Shields and one UEFA Super Cup.

The total of 19 trophies forged Liverpool's status as the dominant European champion at the time, and Bob Paisley became the first manager to win the European Champions Cup three times.

It is no exaggeration to say that Liverpool's glory in the seventies and eighties of the last century is inseparable from Paisley's dedication.

Li Qing looked at Bob Paisley on the big screen on the pitch, and his heart was slightly excited, this legendary coach who has been dead for more than 20 years may not have expected that he would appear on the Anfield stadium in this way today.

In memory of the decorated manager, Liverpool's sponsor, Standard Chartered Bank, used the latest CG technology to bring the great elder back to the KOP.

I also hope that I can be like him, Li Qing secretly swore in his heart.

Bob Paisley spent all his time at Liverpool as a player, having spent 44 years of his club life since joining Liverpool in the late thirties.

Paisley, who made nearly 300 appearances for Liverpool as a player, was also a core member of Liverpool's championship division.

It's just that Paisley's playing days are not known to many people, just because his subsequent coaching career has achieved too brilliant and dazzling.

After the retirement of legendary coach Shankly, Paisley, who had been an assistant to the coach for many years, took over the reins of the Reds, and in the following nine years, Paisley's Liverpool was invincible, sweeping almost the entire continent.

Despite his extraordinary achievements and personal accolades, Paisley has always maintained a humble and low-key character, opting to retire in the early eighties after leading Liverpool to the league title.

The word legend may have become a common word in today's football, but for Bob Paisley, calling him a legend is definitely worthy of the name.

Time has passed, and although Klopp has now been unanimously recognized by Liverpool FC and the public, there are still some people who have not forgotten the past.

It was a great feat of Paisley averaging more than two titles per season, and this achievement could only be matched by even Manchester United's Ferguson.

Jurgen Klopp looked up at the stands from the sidelines, and the fans, dressed in pre-arranged red and white costumes, spelled out paisley and a big '100', and their hearts were slightly excited.

As a manager, it is also Klopp's dream to be remembered in this way by the team, and this dream must be fulfilled by filling the trophy with a trophy.

Compared with Paisley, Klopp has indeed broken many records for the Reds, with the Premier League title not won for more than 20 years, the Champions Cup trophy not won for more than 10 years, the five crowns in the season, and the Club World Cup in team history......

But all this is not enough compared to Paisley, but Klopp believes that one day, he will be able to reach that height, and it will be unique!

After just one minute of remembrance ceremony, the match between Liverpool and Crystal Palace officially began, with Liverpool taking the initiative from the start and Crystal Palace recovering from the open.

On this kind of day, as long as everyone knows, Liverpool's winning psychology today is definitely much stronger than in the past.

Paying tribute to the legend is the dream of every Liverpudlian person, and it is the wish of everyone in the team to score and win in this kind of game, and Li Qing is no exception.

Today, Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp lined up with a 4231 attacking formation, goalkeeper Alisson, and on the back line, Joel Matip returned to partner Van Dijk in central defence, with Milner and Robertson on both sides.

Midfielder Fabinho and captain Jordan Henderson were both at the back, with Keita, Sadio Mane and Li Qing lined up in front, with Roberto Firmino up front.

Crystal Palace's squad is not much different from the previous round, with the only thing worth mentioning is that their 39-year-old veteran goalkeeper Speroni started in place of injured first-choice goalkeeper Guaita.

Liverpool's three captains started at the same time, which made the Liverpool fans on the scene very excited, which is extremely rare this season, which makes many fans full of expectations, of course, more expectations for Li Qing.

Li Qing's recent performance is as stable as ever, and no matter what position he is arranged, he can have a super god play, this game returns to the front, everyone thinks that this game, Liverpool is stable!_
