Football super ace shooter

The most talked-about match in the 8th round of the Premier League in the 2017-2018 season was undoubtedly the visit of the leader Manchester United to challenge Liverpool. This historic double-red match attracted not only the attention of the UK, but also all fans around the world.

The home team Liverpool has not performed very well in the past seven rounds. It has 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss and ranks seventh with 12 points. On the other hand, its archrival Manchester United has won seven games and leads the standings with 21 points.

In addition, Manchester United has completed an astonishing 48 rounds of unbeaten from the 36th round of the 2015-2016 Premier League season to the 7th round of the 2017-2018 season. There is only one game left before Arsenal's 49 unbeaten rounds.

Therefore, there are too many things involved in this 181st double red meeting. For the home team Liverpool, it can be said to be a game that cannot afford to lose.

Taking into account the attention of this double red meeting, this game is scheduled to be the last game of this round, which is equivalent to relieving the physical and mental fatigue caused by the international match day for the players of both sides, and preparing for the future double red meeting. The Red Cross is preparing.

There was a big upset in the first game. Crystal Palace, which had not scored a point in seven previous games, defeated Chelsea 2:1 at home!

I don’t know if the upset game spread in London. Arsenal from North London also lost 1:2 in the away game.

After two consecutive upsets, the Premier League giants, who were deeply affected by the international match day, became cautious.

Tottenham, led by Pochettino, defeated Bournemouth 1:0 at home, and Manchester City continued their super state before the start of the international break, beating visiting Stoke City 7:2 at home!

In addition to Jesus scoring twice, Sterling and Sane scored a goal, and David Silva, Fernandinho and Bernardo Silva each scored a goal.

Both Manchester United and Liverpool are preparing for the match and pay great attention to details, especially in tactical drills. As old rivals in the Premier League last season, no one wants to be defeated, especially Liverpool head coach Klopp.

Liverpool's failure to qualify for the Champions League last season was largely due to being beaten by Manchester United at home and away. As long as they scored even one point in one of the games, the fourth team representing the Premier League in the Champions League would not be able to win. It will be Manchester City.

Time is irreversible and past results cannot be changed. Liverpool, which has had a poor start to the season, urgently needs a strong rebound and hopes to defeat Manchester United at the Devil's home stadium of Anfield.

Considering that there is a slight gap in strength between them, Liverpool's famous players did not take the initiative to provoke a war of words like last season's Double Red Club, obviously not wanting to affect Liverpool's active preparations.

Liverpool's players at the Melwood training base are in high spirits under Jurgen Klopp's incendiary words and are confident of starting the 2017-2018 Premier League season at Anfield tomorrow night.

Since Manchester is only 55 kilometers away from Liverpool, Manchester United did not go to Liverpool one day in advance to prepare for the game, but took the team bus the next morning.

Nine games into the eighth round of the 2017-2018 Premier League season, the focus of Premier League fans has completely shifted to Liverpool, a city in northwest England.

Football fans all over the world are gearing up, waiting for the start of this double red game.

Fans from China are particularly looking forward to it. Although captain Valencia has returned from injury, the starting list announced more than an hour before the game does not include Valencia or even Smalling, which means that Fan Kerry will play as captain in both games. Red Cross!

The official lineup given by the visiting team Manchester United is 433, starting goalkeeper De Gea, defenders Luke Shaw, Van Dijk, De Ligt and Achraf, midfielders Matic, Van de Beek and Herrera, forward Van Kea Rui, Lukaku and Rashford.

Liverpool also has a 433 formation, with goalkeeper Mignolet, defenders Moreno, Lovren, Matip and Alexander-Arnold, midfielders Emre Can, Henderson and Wijnaldum, forwards Coutinho, Firmino and Salah.

By the time both teams walked towards the tunnel, the Anfield Stadium, which could accommodate 54,000 fans, was already packed, and the cheers and boos were reduced to a minimum, waiting for the game to start.

In the home team's locker room, Klopp reiterated important game tactics to the main players in the locker room as usual to deepen their impression.

There were about seven or eight minutes left before the game, and the bell rang to remind the players that the game was about to begin.

Klopp summoned the main players and substitutes, gathered in a circle around each other, shoulder to shoulder, and shouted passionately:"Guys! Damn Manchester United is coming menacingly, obviously they want to step on our bodies to create their own record. This One thing...I think everyone here, like me, doesn't want to become a stepping stone for our mortal enemy, right? So...we have only one goal! To overthrow Manchester United!"

Captain Henderson matched Klopp's face with a ferocious expression and said impassionedly:" Defeat Manchester United!"

"Defeat Manchester United!"

The Liverpool players yelled crazily in unison, and the crowd was agitated.

Klopp was very satisfied with the players' reaction and clapped his hands twice emotionally:"Liverpool must win!"

"Must win!"

Henderson and other players roared in tacit understanding.

In the player tunnel, Manchester United and Liverpool are mortal enemies. The next game is destined to be a fierce match against Maimang, but before the game, the players have their own circle of friends. Relationship.

The starting players of both teams all have national team teammates. Van Carey, Van Dijk, Van de Beek, and De Ligt hugged Wijnaldum respectively. Van Carey patted him on the back:"Gorginho, game Stay focused and don't get passed by me again"

"Don't worry, I will knock you to the ground hard. Wijnaldum grinned.

"You won't get that chance."

Van Kerry said with a smile.

The other England teammates patted each other on the shoulders without saying much. Obviously, the criticality of this double red meeting seriously affected the emotions of the players on both sides of the game. The on-site director gave the players who returned to the forefront of the Manchester United team Fan Kerry, he teased the ball boy who was not much younger than him. The PP sports commentator laughed:"The young player Fan Kerry is an 18-year-old youngster after all, with a childlike innocence. Maybe... he is not a few years older than this caddy. What an enviable super genius."

About half a minute later, referee Atkinson led his assistant to the players' tunnel. Liverpool captain Henderson and Manchester United captain Van Kerry followed behind and walked to the court. The plaque at the players' tunnel is still eye-catching, but for Van Kerry. Said that such things did not serve as a warning at all. On the contrary...he was full of desire to score goals.

"aooaoaooaooaoaoooooo——"

Entering the stadium, the"You'll Never Walk Alone" ringing in the sky above Anfield was instantly replaced by deafening shouts.

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun's mood is complicated. Liverpool is his belief, but Manchester United has Fan Kerry, a descendant of the Chinese dynasty. Fortunately, his commentary style is smooth and never partial. His psychological adjustment is very fast:"The game is about to start. Come on, will the home team Liverpool rebound strongly, or will the leader Manchester United and the Raptors cross the river? Let's wait and see what happens in this 181st double-red match in history!"

During his words, players from both sides completed a series of necessary pre-match procedures. Everyone stood aside and waited for referee Atkinson to blow the opening whistle of the game.
