I'm 198cm tall. Are you giving me a Maradona template?

Chapter 257 This is our territory!
Mourinho's face showed anger.

He believed that the ball was caused by the two central defenders of Manchester United failing to jump up and compete for the header in the first time.

But if he were to communicate with Smalling or Bailly now, they would both feel very aggrieved.

Smalling was very helpless.

He thought he was in the best position.

According to his judgment of the landing point, the football falls and the best position for heading the ball is right at his position.

He just had to stand in that position.

It is unlikely that anyone who comes can head the ball.

Unless you knock him away.

But if he jumps from the spot and his opponent sprints and then jumps over, then it will most likely be a jumping foul.

But who could have thought that Yangguang would head the ball from another unexpected position - he jumped too high!
With such a bouncing power, Yangguang hit the ball into the goal from a position that Smalling himself thought it was absolutely impossible to head the ball.

This error in judgment cost him money.

De Gea helplessly fished the ball out of his own goal and kicked it forward with a big foot.

Manchester United lost the ball within 20 seconds of the start of the game.

This situation is really bad for Manchester United.

Many of their pre-match plans were disrupted because of this.

This is equivalent to Manchester United starting the game with a goal lost.

The only thing to be thankful for is.

The goal came within twenty seconds of the start of the game.

Instead of a buzzer beater 20 seconds before the end of the game
The game quickly resumed.

Manchester United fans also recovered from the blow of losing the ball.

Losing a goal first is certainly not a good thing.

But now the game has just begun.

How could Manchester United fans surrender now?
They booed wildly, using their huge voices to suppress Liverpool's away fans.

This is a game that depends on the Premier League title.

This is a game that concerns Manchester United's dignity.

They will never be defeated by a lost goal.

Under Mourinho's coaching.

Don’t say anything else.

Manchester United's defense is very tight.

Manchester United plays a 4231 system.

The two defensive midfielders are Matic and Spaniard Herrera.

The attacking midfielder is Pogba.

Two wingers, Sanchez on the left, Lingard on the right, and Lukaku as the center forward.

Under Mourinho.

He prefers to use a player like Lingard who has excellent physical fitness and strong running ability.

Although Lingard's footwork and talent are certainly far inferior to Rashford or Martial.

But because he can run.

So, in Mourinho's system.

Lingard's appearance order is higher than Rashford and Martial.

The two geniuses considered by Manchester United fans are now sitting on the bench.

Lingard and Sanchez played as left and right wingers, and their attitude of participating in defense allowed Manchester United to form a 451 defensive system for a time.

"Mourinho parked a bus in front of the goal"

A commentator said.

But it does work.

Although Liverpool scored a goal, they did not sit back and relax.

They are clear.

The competition has just begun.

Leading by one goal is not a safe score.

This is Old Trafford, Liverpool cannot expect Manchester United to fail to score a goal in this stadium.

and so.

Most teams, including Liverpool, seize the opportunity of scoring a goal and boosting team morale to continue pursuing the victory.

And facing Liverpool's attack.

Manchester United's defense was solid.

They built a large and tight defensive system in front of the penalty area.

Mourinho's team is not afraid of opponents pressing forward.

What they are waiting for is the opportunity to fight back.

Liverpool fans were looking forward to the team easily defeating their opponents in the next game.

But after the game started.

They were quickly disappointed.

Manchester United is still Manchester United after all.

They have reasons to try their best in this game.

When a top football team unites for a goal, the fighting power it unleashes should not be underestimated.

The Liverpool players on the field were not as optimistic as the fans.

They were fully prepared for the difficulty of the game at Old Trafford.

They and Manchester United are sworn enemies, and they know very well how tenacious their opponents will be in such a game.

Expecting to swallow Manchester United in one breath.

This is not realistic.

It's impossible.

After a few minutes of siege.

Liverpool players began to retreat slowly, gradually regaining their formation.

This is in preparation for the next wave of attack.

If an attack is a punch.

Then you need to retract your fist and then swing it out again to unleash the power of your fist.

If you keep besieging your opponent, on the one hand, your opponent will get used to your offensive rhythm, but on the other hand, it will also give your opponent the risk of counterattack.

on the other hand.

Liverpool is actually quite afraid of Manchester United's counterattack.

After attacking fiercely for a while with the momentum of scoring a goal, they found that there was nothing to gain.

Liverpool's players slowly retreated.

Although Liverpool is also good at playing oppressive attack.

But they can also play on the counter-attack.

It is nothing more than the intensity of high-intensity high-pressure pressing moved to the midfield and backcourt.

Ten minutes later.

Liverpool gradually recovered.

Although Manchester United is good at counterattacks.

But when the opponent did not press forward.

They also have to press forward and attack.

Otherwise everyone would just be staring at each other in their own half of the field.

Liverpool were delighted, as they could have easily accepted a dull, tedious and drowsy 1-0 victory.

Anyway, it’s all winning, all getting three points, and all winning the championship.

How can we distinguish between a gorgeous win, a noble three-pointer, and a championship with higher gold content?
Manchester United began to take control of the ball.

Taking advantage of the home field, Manchester United began to launch an offensive.

"Sanchez!!"

Amid the commentators' exclamations, Sanchez received Valencia's cross at the back post, headed the ball, and hit the side net, making Liverpool fans break into a cold sweat.

"Sanchez's performance in this game was better than in previous games, and his connection with other Manchester United players became more frequent."

A commentator said.

With a common goal.

Manchester United players also put aside the discord in the locker room.

I have to say that Manchester United's first-team lineup is actually very good now.

Look at their three midfielders.

Matic, Herrera, Pogba.

They are all excellent players.

Especially Pogba, who is over 1.9 meters tall, has a very soft feel for his feet, is very good at passing threatening balls, and has a very reliable long shot.

The forward line includes Sanchez and Lukaku, both of whom are players who can start for top clubs.

Such a team.

When they are no longer disturbed by off-field factors and everyone's goals are consistent.

The energy they burst out is surprising enough.

and so.

Twenty-eighth minute of the game.

Manchester United scored.

"Pogba! Pogba! Pogba!! Oh oh oh! Beautiful long shot!! The ball goes in!!"

"Manchester United equalized the score! This is a very crucial goal. Both sides are now back on the same starting line!"

"Manchester United defended their dignity at their home ground! Liverpool want to lift the championship trophy at Old Trafford? Manchester United will never agree!"

amid the roars of the commentators.

Pogba opened his arms, rushed to the sidelines with great excitement, and performed a very Pogba-like dance celebration.

The cheers from the entire Old Trafford almost blew off the roof of the stadium.

If this was already an extremely lively scene.

Well, three minutes later, the atmosphere at Old Trafford reached a new level.

because
Manchester United scored again!

Sanchez cut in from the wing and fired a lob, the ball went around the defender and Karius flew to save the ball. His fingertips touched the ball but it only changed its direction slightly, not enough to stop it from going into the goal.

The moment the football hits the net.

There was an earthquake at Old Trafford.

In the commentary box.

The commentators also went completely crazy.

"Incredible!!! Sanchez! Sanchez! Sanchez!! Sanchez scored a world-class goal!!!"

"Unbelievable! Manchester United scored two goals in three minutes with two long shots from outside the penalty area. They came from one goal behind to score two goals in three minutes and completed the reversal!"

"Within 30 minutes of the game, the two teams had already scored three goals! This is the most important match of the season and the most important Manchester United game in the past decade!"

"Sanchez's outbreak has put Manchester United ahead. Sanchez left Arsenal to join Manchester United in the winter window. His performance at Manchester United has been questioned, but if Manchester United can eventually beat Liverpool at home, then the salary Manchester United pays Sanchez will definitely be worth it!"

After scoring the goal, Sanchez also knew how important his goal was.

He came to Manchester United.

Actually, I am very disappointed.

On his first day at the Carrington training ground, he was ready to pack his bags and return to Arsenal.
He could feel the aging of the team, the overstaffing, and the serious locker room friction.
But in any case, he is now receiving a salary from Manchester United.

Such a game is too important for Manchester United.

The result of losing this game was too suffocating: I don’t know how many Manchester United fans couldn’t accept that Liverpool won the championship at Old Trafford.

Because of this.

The entire team now has a common goal, and all factions within the locker room have temporarily ceased fighting.

Mourinho rushed to the sidelines with his arms raised.

I almost slid down to celebrate.

He was very happy with his team's performance.

At the same time, there is some resentment in my heart.

If Manchester United can maintain this form throughout the season.

So why are we just watching Liverpool take the lead now?
But overall.

This season shouldn't be considered a failure.
Won the League Cup and then entered the top four.

Manchester United has a promising future next season.

Klopp on the other side frowned.

He shook his head gently.

Although the difficulty of this game was already anticipated.

But he still underestimated Manchester United's determination.

Such a Manchester United is scary.

Liverpool. Maybe it's really hard to win in this stadium?

Fortunately.

Liverpool's lead is big enough now.

Even if we lost points in this game.

They can also secure the league title with a high probability.

Although Liverpool fans all hope to win the championship by defeating Manchester United in this game.

But for Klopp.

He won’t force the ball as much.

As long as we can win the championship.

Anyway.

The hatred between Liverpool and Manchester United is very important to Klopp, a German.

He is difficult to replace anyway.

The same is true for sunlight.

He is communicating with his teammates.

"We have to push them back with our offense!"

Sunshine exclaimed.

"Conventional thinking is not enough to defeat the opponent. They have strong offensive capabilities. If we count on counterattacks, we will probably lose the ball!"

Sunshine said.

When the other Liverpool players heard this, some agreed while others frowned.

"But what if they kick a counterattack?"

Yang Guang heard this and said, "Don't forget what we are best at? Attack! Attack! Attack! Brothers, what we are best at is attack! We Chinese have a saying that we should play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses. When our offensive momentum comes up, their defense will not be able to withstand it!"

While the sun was speaking.

Klopp on the sidelines has also completed his instructions to captain Henderson.

After Henderson came back, he said, "The coach said we have to attack! Use offense to suppress them!"

Snapped!
The sun clapped its hands.

"Ha! Did you hear that?"

he said excitedly.

The head coach has the same idea as him.

Manchester United did not retreat immediately after scoring the goal.

They also wanted to take advantage of the momentum of the goal and continue attacking to try to expand the score.

Liverpool's pressure in the midfield and frontcourt was also obvious.

This is the result.

For the time being, neither side has brought the flames of war to the other's danger zone.

The two teams formed a fierce confrontation in the midfield.

In the end, neither side continued to score in the first half.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game.

Liverpool is currently trailing Manchester United 1-2 away from home.

"The first half is over. Both teams played a wonderful first half."

“Maybe this game has little impact on the outcome of the league championship, but it has a big impact on Manchester United. In terms of the desire to win, Manchester United players are far better than Liverpool players, which may be the main reason for the result in the first half of the game!”

"Of course, there is still a second half of the game. No one can predict what will happen in the second half, but one thing is certain, the second half of the game will definitely not be boring or dull! We can look forward to a more exciting second half of the game!!"

In the commentary booth, the commentator took off his headphones and turned off the microphone after saying this.

Many people slumped in their seats.

The first half of the game was indeed exciting, which made the commentators feel the huge physical consumption.

They also need a halftime break to rest.

On the Internet.

Fans are also discussing this game.

"Maybe a draw is a fairer outcome."

"Liverpool's road to the championship will be delayed by one game."

"If Manchester United could have performed like this throughout the season, maybe they would be competing with Liverpool for the title now."

Players from both teams returned to their respective locker rooms.

In the home team's locker room.

Mourinho is very satisfied with the current situation.

He told his players: "We will have chances in the second half. They will definitely want to press forward and attack. Don't be afraid of them! We must seize the opportunity and score the third goal as soon as possible. As long as we expand the lead to two, they will completely collapse!!"

"They want to win on our turf?"

"dream!!"

All Manchester United players clenched their fists and cheered along with Mourinho.

"Those bastards have no chance of winning on our turf!"

They have the same goal and high morale.

In the visiting team's locker room.

Klopp did not blame his players either.

he knows.

This is a championship game, and it's being played at Old Trafford.

The pressure must be huge.

Klopp does not have the intention to win the championship at Old Trafford.

But he certainly couldn't show it.

So when he faced his players, he still praised their performance and told them that they performed very well in the first half.

"We are only one goal behind, which is not a big deal. It's not like we haven't fallen behind before this season. As long as we stick to our style of play, we can turn defeat into victory in the second half. Manchester United is playing at home, which is a double-edged sword for them. The advantage of the home court is sometimes motivation but also pressure. If we can equalize the score and put them in a disadvantageous situation, then they will be under tremendous pressure at home!"

In the second half of the game, both sides returned to the court.

If you directly connect the last ten minutes of the first half of the game to the second half, you will find out.

After the start of the second half, the situation was almost exactly the same as the last ten minutes of the first half.

The two teams seemed to have a false halftime break.

The fierce hand-to-hand combat between the two sides in the midfield caused the game to be constantly cut.

The referee kept blowing the whistle and calling fouls.

He was very lenient in his penalties in this game.

After all, this is a Red Devils derby. If the standards are too strict, red cards will probably appear soon. By then, the number of players on both sides may not be equal, which will greatly damage the fluidity and excitement of the game.

It comes down to it.

For the league operators.

The most important thing is how to ensure that the league is more exciting and attract more people to watch.

Off the field.

Most of the Liverpool fans who failed to buy tickets were holding up their mobile phones and tablets to watch the live broadcast.

But so many people open the Internet at the same time.

This caused a lot of network congestion.

At last.

Basically everyone gave up watching the live broadcast on their mobile phones and instead concentrated on "listening" to the game.

The commentator of Manchester United TV is the live commentator of old Telrafford.

His voice came over the loudspeakers at Old Trafford.

Although he is the commentator of the opponent.

But I can also understand the current situation in the field through him.

Anyway, just express the opposite of your emotions to the other person.

Ten minutes passed.

There was no exciting news coming from the scene.

Everyone was listening to the game with frowns on their faces.

The second half lasts thirteen minutes.

There was a sudden burst of sharp boos from the audience.

The commentator at Old Trafford also raised his voice: "Be careful!!!"

Outside Old Trafford.

All Liverpool fans cheered immediately.

they know.

The situation is definitely in Liverpool's favor now.

"Mané has the ball. Valencia goes to stop him! Mané. Goes over!"

The commentator on Manchester United TV almost screamed.

This is what Liverpool fans want to hear.

The more fearful the enemy is.

The more excited they are!

"Watch out Yang!"

Such a voice came from the live broadcast.

"Yang! Long live!!!"

The cheers of Liverpool fans drowned out the sound of the live broadcast.

at the same time.

Inside the stadium.

The boos from the stands were like a whirlwind, spinning back and forth in the stands.

Mane cut in from the wing and prepared for a long shot.

But just when someone from Manchester United came up to block.

He suddenly chose to pass the ball straight!
at the same time.

The sun shone through from the other side.

Bailey followed him closely.

Manchester United's defense did not dare to create offside because it was too dangerous.

So, Bailly's choice was to stick to the sun, making it impossible for him to shoot.

"Card inside! Don't let him shoot!!"

the commentator of Manchester United TV exclaimed.

This isn't really a great opportunity.

Because there are defensive players next to Yangguang, if he shoots directly, there is a high probability that the ball will hit the defensive players.

If he stops the ball.

Bailey would definitely come over and entangle Sunshine, creating opportunities for other Manchester United players to steal the ball. But none of them expected it.

Yangguang did not shoot directly, nor did he stop the ball. Instead, he touched the ball slightly with his foot while running, changing the direction of the ball. He then turned around to let the ball pass to him, then created a little bit of an angle and shot directly!
Bailey's reaction was fast enough.

But he was still a little slow.

He turned around and blocked the line.

The football passed by his feet.

The football was moving very fast as it stuck to the ground and headed towards the goal.

De Gea didn't even have time to react.

The football has already gone into the goal!
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!"

Accompanied by shouts from the commentators.

Yangguang screamed and roared, pulling his jersey, rushed to the corner flag area, jumped up, and slid to his knees on the ground!
"Positive!!!"

The roars from the commentary booth were coupled with the cheers from the 3,000 Liverpool fans at the scene and the 20,000 Liverpool fans outside Old Trafford.

The cheers spread from Old Trafford to Liverpool, dozens of kilometers away.

Half of Liverpool was cheering and boiling with excitement.

Everyone jumped up, raised their arms and cheered, extremely excited and thrilled.

"Yang! Yang! Yang! At the crucial moment, it was still Yang! His goal brought Liverpool back into the game again!"

"Yang Guang scored twice! He seized a not-so-good opportunity and blasted the ball into the goal!"

"De Gea had no reaction. In fact, facing such a shot, it is really difficult to save it in the first time."

The media seats were also in an uproar.

Many reporters had excitement in their eyes.

Liverpool, crushing Manchester United, wins the Premier League title.

What a sensational news this is!
They can all imagine how heated public opinion would be if Liverpool really did this.
Liverpool fans waved their scarves in the away stands and cheers filled the stadium.

Manchester United fans were a little confused. They found it hard to accept the current situation. Everyone was staring at the Liverpool fans who were celebrating on the stadium.

After several seconds.

They just reacted.

The opponent just tied the score, and the game is not over yet!
Absolutely, we cannot let our mortal enemy show off his power here.

The huge boos suppressed the cheers of Liverpool fans.

The Manchester United players on the field were hit hard.

Their confidence was somewhat dampened by this goal.

Mourinho came to the sidelines again.

He clapped his hands, trying to calm the emotions of the Manchester United players.

he knows.

The current Manchester United players have fear in their hearts.

Fear of the Chinese man.

"This is our territory! This is our territory!"

Mourinho pulled the team captain Valencia and yelled.

Such a game cannot be analyzed using common sense.

Because what kind of energy the two sides can unleash in the game is something no one can predict.

Shortly after Liverpool scored.

The sixty-fifth minute of the game.

Manchester United scored.

The goal was not scored by a star player like Pogba or Sanchez.

It was not Manchester United's center forward Lukaku, but Manchester United's midfielder, Spaniard Herrera.

It was a free kick in the frontcourt for Manchester United.

The football flew into the penalty area. Lukaku got the ball in the penalty area and kicked it to shoot, but Henderson kicked the ball and the ball went outside the penalty area along the ground.

Herrera outside the penalty area took the ball and made a long shot.

The shot came very suddenly.

The ball went to the sideline twice in the penalty area.

It first hit Arnold's ankle and then bounced off Van Dijk's shin pads.

These two changes of direction caused Karius to lose his balance, and he could only watch the football go into the goal.

"Herrera!! Beautiful!!"

"Double deflection! Manchester United scored a very lucky goal!"

"3-2! Manchester United took the lead again! This game is crazy!"

“Will this be the turning point of the game?”

"This is the Reds derby, this is the English national derby!"

"Manchester United are very tenacious playing at home!"

"Never underestimate the power that comes out of Old Trafford!"

When Herrera shot the ball into the goal.

Mourinho clenched his fists and rushed to the sidelines.

He knows the significance of this ball too well!
This goal will greatly boost Manchester United's morale. Before that, Manchester United players' fear of the sun will be dissipated a lot.

And as confidence increases.

The possibility of Manchester United winning the game at home will also be greater!

Old Trafford was in a frenzy.

They shouted with their fists clenched.

"Liverpool! Go to hell! Liverpool!"

"Don't even think about stepping on us to win the championship! Don't even think about it!"

"You will never surpass us!"

"We are the overlords of the Premier League! You are nothing!!!"

Manchester United fans' confidence reached its peak.

they think.

This game.

Manchester United has won!

Yes.

Playing at home, high morale, leading the score
The competition has come to this point.

Could it be that.
Is there anything else Liverpool can do?

Can Manchester United still lose the game under such circumstances?
Even if it was tied.

Liverpool's lead over Manchester City will also decrease from 10 points to 8 points.

Although Liverpool still has a huge advantage.

But Manchester United also achieved their goal: to prevent Liverpool from winning the title at Old Trafford.

The champions of the Premier League.

Now, not only has it been eliminated from the championship race early on.

The current goal is so humble that it is to prevent the mortal enemy from winning the championship in advance on their own territory.

Many Manchester United fans feel suffocated just thinking about it.

But they had to accept the result.

Liverpool can win the title.

But we will never allow them to win the title at Old Trafford!
Now it seems.

Manchester United players did not disappoint their expectations.

Next.

Liverpool need to score two goals to complete their goal of winning the title at Old Trafford.

This seems impossible to Manchester United fans.

It's not just Manchester United fans.

In the media box.

The reporters also felt that the game had reached this point.

The idea that Liverpool can win the title at Old Trafford is unrealistic.

"Even if they lose this game, Liverpool are still 7 points ahead and they only need to get three more points to win the championship."

"Not winning at Old Trafford is no big deal."

"The championship still belongs to Liverpool."

"Manchester United are terrifying when they are united."

Reporters were buzzing.

Mourinho quickly returned to the dugout after celebrating.

He needs to make adjustments.

This is also the time for the first substitution.

soon.

Rashford stood on the sidelines.

Mourinho put his arm around Rashford's shoulders and said, "Marcus, now it's time to use your speed. Tell everyone, now that we are one goal ahead, we can retreat and play a defensive counterattack. Pass the ball forward whenever we have the chance. There will be a lot of space in their backcourt. You have to make good use of it. As long as we score one more goal, we can completely secure the victory!"

Rashford nodded repeatedly.

As a youth player of Manchester United.

A Manchester native who joined Manchester United's youth academy at the age of 7.

Rashford is the "Prince" of Manchester United in the eyes of Manchester United fans.

He is very popular among the fans.

Rashford, who has this status, is naturally very clear about the importance of this game. If Liverpool wins the championship by defeating Manchester United, it will be one of the biggest humiliations Manchester United has ever encountered in its more than 100-year history.

Even though Mourinho often criticizes him in press conferences, Rashford is still a passionate young man and it is far from the time for him to just lie down and make money.

Hearing Mourinho's words, the Manchester United prince nodded repeatedly.

Subsequently.

After a dead ball.

He came on as a substitute.

Replaced Lukaku.

Klopp looked at his bench.

The Germans felt a pang of annoyance.

Forget it, I won’t change it for now.

The players on the field still have physical strength.

He came to the sidelines and looked at the court.

Losing the ball was certainly a blow to Liverpool's players.

But he believes that this team has a strong ability to adjust.

Liverpool's players will be back in the game soon.

Now.

There is no point in making tactical adjustments.

This is a game that tests the willpower of players on both sides.

For both sides, it's time to grit their teeth and fight.

The competition has entered a white-hot stage.

It's not so much white-hot as hot.

It’s better to say that both sides were blood-thirsty.

Liverpool's attack became simple.

this change.

It can be interpreted from many angles.

Some commentators thought that Liverpool players were starting to get impatient.

Some people also think that this is how Liverpool should play.

Who makes them the most threatening player?

Launch a long pass from the backcourt.

Directly take advantage of Sunshine's header advantage, control the ball, quickly pass through the midfield, and develop the ball into Manchester United's defensive dangerous area as soon as possible.

Such a simple attack.

In theory.

It's easy to defend.

Because just by blocking the sunlight, Liverpool's attack can be made ineffective.

But the only problem is.

sunlight
It's not that good to look at.

"Van Dijk long pass. Sunshine!"

"Sunshine header! The ball reached the wing and Mane got it!"

"Two Manchester United central defenders were competing with Yang for the header, but Yang dominated the sky!"

Manchester United's players soon found out that they were courting death in competing with Sunshine for the first point.

So they quickly changed their strategy.

Seek to control the second landing point.

Because it is basically impossible to head the ball directly into the goal from the backcourt.

Sunshine is just a bridgehead.

He has to pass the ball to his teammates before he can participate in the next attack.

This way.

I can't compete with the sun for the first point.

But for the second landing point, Manchester United players felt they could still fight for it.

After doing this.

Liverpool's offensive threat has declined somewhat.

But they did not change this practice.

Instead, keep persisting and look for the sunshine above your head.

It's now this moment.

All Liverpool players choose to trust the sun. They firmly believe that the sun can definitely help Liverpool and create their own sky under such a situation.

Sunshine also knows Manchester United's current defensive strategy.

Heading the ball is not as accurate as passing it with the feet, but Liverpool has no other choice now.

They must score a goal as soon as possible, otherwise, as time goes by, their chances of reversing the score will be greatly reduced.

But to score
Sunshine looked around.

His teammates were all stared at.

What to do now?
Yangguang turned his head and looked behind him.

Before, Manchester United had two central defenders, Smalling and Bailly, come to see him.

Now, they actually only let Gangsmolin to watch.

Manchester United players think that with their back to the goal, Sunshine cannot pose a threat to the goal, right?
The sunlight continued to retreat, all the way into the penalty area.

Smalling was startled.

He didn't know what Yangguang meant.

But this did not stop him from becoming alert.

So he hurriedly pressed himself close to the sunlight.

In this situation, the two were almost entangled with each other.

Manchester United did not try to create offside - probably because they were worried that they would lose Sunshine's position. If Sunshine first stood in an offside position and then suddenly ran back and reached a position that was not offside, he could kick the ball.

This will result in Sunshine losing someone to defend him, and the situation will have to be that the full-back Ashley Young will have to defend Sunshine - this is something Manchester United does not want to see.

Anyway, they are parking the bus.

Your center position is deep in the penalty area, so come on.

Can you still head the ball into the goal from the penalty area?

Van Dijk got the ball in the backcourt.

He looked up for someone.

The Dutchman was stunned.

Because he found that Yang Guang should have been standing near the top of the penalty area, but he had now retreated to the penalty area.

Van Dyke also had no idea what Sunshine was going to do.

but.

Liverpool's current strategy is to pass the ball wherever the sun is.

So he launched a long pass without hesitation.

The sun leaned against Smalling.

Smalling faced the sun with his back, while staring straight ahead.

"Be careful they shoot from long range!"

Smalling shouted.

He felt that he understood Sunshine's thoughts.

Previously, Yangguang's header was directed to both flanks.

Now he entered the penalty area.

His purpose was most likely to head the ball back to Liverpool's midfielder.

Giving them the opportunity to shoot from the top of the penalty area.

Smalling's reminder made Manchester United players pay attention to the top of the penalty area.

This is indeed a very dangerous area.

Many long-range goals were scored from here.

and so.

Manchester United players immediately retreated to fill this area.

If Yang Guang had pointed the ball back to the penalty area.

Then the Manchester United players are likely to take the ball and then.
Attack!

De Gea also heard Smalling's reminder.

However, he had different ideas.

He studied Sunshine, a very "orthodox" center.

When there is a direct shot opportunity.

He generally doesn't pass the ball.

Being near the penalty spot with his back to the goal, does that mean he will definitely not be able to complete the shot?

not necessarily!

De Gea is highly focused.

The sun is staring at the incoming ball.

De Gea was right.

He really wanted to attack the goal directly.

When the football fell, the sunlight suddenly jumped up.

Then he faced the incoming ball, almost leaning backwards, and pointed the ball towards the goal.

The football bounced, changed direction, and flew into the blind corner.

"Positive!!!"

to the exclamations of the commentators.

De Gea flew forward and saved the ball from going out of bounds.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he landed.

Fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise...
I was just successfully ambushed by the sunlight!
De Gea just turned his head to look at the sunlight and found that the opponent did not show any frustration, but immediately came to the front of the small penalty area line, preparing for a corner kick attack.

De Gea put away the little bit of pride in his heart and his expression became serious.

What a formidable opponent!

"De Gea! Nice save!"

"Sunshine unexpectedly shot directly at the goal, the ball was flying towards the blind corner. We can see that De Gea started moving before that. His prediction was very accurate!"

"Sunshine's sneak attack was unsuccessful!"

The commentators all praised De Gea's performance.

Just now.

Liverpool's corner kick has been taken.

Unexpectedly.

Liverpool did not kick the ball directly into the penalty area this time.

Instead, it was a tactical corner kick.

Arnold passed the ball to Mane, who received it in the corner of the penalty area.

at the same time.

Manchester United players quickly pressed forward, trying to trap Liverpool players in an offside trap.

Liverpool players also pressed forward collectively, and Arnold ran back after passing the ball to ensure that he would not be offside.

Mane cut inside and passed the ball along the penalty area line towards the bottom line.

The purpose of such a tactical coordination is to create a better crossing position than a corner kick.

Arnold plugged in at high speed.

at the same time.

In Manchester United's penalty area.

Because the players from both sides made two passes back and forth.

The situation now seems very chaotic.

And this is the opportunity Liverpool needs.

In chaos.

The Suns suffered far less defensive interference.

While running.

Neither Bailly nor Smalling dared to make any moves.

They watched in horror as the sun suddenly jumped up, and then...
Arnold's pass has come.

Right between the penalty spot and the small penalty area line.

The sun faced the incoming ball, bent down, twisted his body, and shook his head!
boom!
De Gea is still ready.

But
This time, he failed to save the ball.

Even if he judged the direction correctly.

But this time the sunlight is directed towards the incoming ball.

With full force.

The football was headed at a very fast speed!
brush!
You hear the crisp sound of a football entering the net.

“Liverpool!!”

The commentary box exploded!

The whole Old Trafford also exploded.

All the sounds came together.

Suddenly, explode!
"Hat! Hat! Hat! Hat trick!!"

"It's still Yang! It's still him!"

"Nice header!! Nice?!"

In the stands and outside the stadium.

All the Liverpool fans cheered.

"Long live Yang!!!"

These sounds enveloped the entire Old Trafford!
