The sweeping army of the greenery

Chapter 22 Begins

Liverpool's game against Manchester City at Anfield finally took place in the afternoon.

"This is the right time to play football." Li Tiancheng lay down on the bench, stretched his waist and stretched his legs.

The air was filled with the sound of cheering, and there were fans behind us.

Imagining Sun Chenghai's situation at this moment, Li Tiancheng couldn't help but want to laugh. The design of the Premier League stadium is really amazing. The bench is in the stands. The away team's coach and players are surrounded by home team fans. He asked the away team if there is a big psychological shadow.

.

Playing as a guest at White Hart Lane, it was really hard to concentrate on observing the game. Now I am enjoying the benefits of being at home. I am surrounded by my own fans and my ears are full of encouragement and cheers. It feels really good.

"Brother Hai has seen a lot of strong winds and waves. This scene must have been familiar to him for a long time." Li Tiancheng felt a little regretful. It would be fun to have a newbie...

Before the game, Li Tiancheng wandered around the stadium for a long time. He had not had many opportunities to hang out at Anfield Stadium and was still very curious about this historic and prestigious stadium.

I met Sun Chenghai in the players' tunnel and the two had a brief chat. They had not seen each other since they had a chat that day.

Sun Chenghai still failed to regain his main position, which is a pity. Both of them were on the bench in this game.

After the referee blew the opening whistle, Li Tiancheng immediately collected his mind and looked at the court intently...

"Welcome to the second round of the 0405 Premier League season live broadcast by CCAV Sports Channel. Liverpool faces Manchester City at home. I am your old friend Liu Jianhong. Today's game is explained by me and Mr. Zhang Lu." Liu Jianhong tried his best to keep his voice.

Stablize.

"Hehe, hello everyone, the Chinese Derby could not be played as scheduled, but Li Tiancheng and Sun Chenghai are both on the bench, so there is still a chance of playing."

"Liverpool still has Cisse and Baros as forward partners, and Kewell is still placed on the left midfielder..."

"For Manchester City, Fowler and Anelka partnered up front. Both of these partners have played for Liverpool. The goalkeeper James and the coach Keegan are also old Liverpool players. The young player Button is sitting on the bench. This man was born in Liverpool and is a Manchester City player.

There is also McManaman, who is also a former Liverpool player and is absent due to injury..."

"It can be said that the two teams have a deep connection and know each other well. Of course, McManaman, Fowler, and James were all members of the "hot boys" when they were at Liverpool. It's hard to say what will happen now."

"Now, Liverpool are attacking..."

Yangma’s emergency purchase of broadcast rights was successful. This game will be broadcast live to the entire China. Of course Li Tiancheng knows this.

"Haha, now mom can see me without having to look for resources everywhere."

Li Tiancheng's emotions were a little complicated. Apart from making fun of himself, he only had the determination to play well. Without this as a foundation, all ambitions would be castles in the air.

Li Tiancheng looked at the field intently.

Only by having a clear understanding of the situation on the field can you be able to play an immediate role on the field.

Judging from the situation on the field, Liverpool clearly had the advantage.

Not long after the opening, Cisse made a long-distance attack, receiving the ball from the midfield and going straight to the penalty area. It was beautiful enough, but...

"It's time to pass the ball, Kewell is open!"

Li Tiancheng wished he was dribbling the ball on the court at this moment.

"Alas~" Li Tiancheng fell down on the backrest.

Cisse forced his foot to hit the goal, but was blocked by the defender.

"Oh, Cisse, this is too reluctant and unreasonable." There was regret in Zhang Lu's tone.

"If the ball is passed to Kewell, Manchester City will be in danger, and now Liverpool still get a corner kick."

"Kewell took a corner kick, and the Manchester City defender was not far away to clear the ball. Gerrard! Oops, Gerrard's long shot was caught by James."

"Judging from the recent scenes, Liverpool has the upper hand."

"Yes, the camera went to the sidelines. Li Tiancheng suddenly jumped up and muttered, looking very regretful."

"It turns to Sun Chenghai again. Hehe, these two people are also a highlight of this game. Xiao Sun has nothing to say. Alas, which team should we support to win?"

"Haha, it's really hard to choose. It would be best if Li Tiancheng scores a goal, Sun Chenghai also performs well, and the two teams tie."

"Hehe, that's really a good thing."

"Alas, Manchester City's attack was interrupted again..."

Although they failed to score, Liverpool continued to suppress Manchester City.

Manchester City did not have its first threatening shot until the 20th minute. Gerrard brought down Wright Phillips and gave Manchester City a free kick on the right side of the penalty area.

Reina took a free kick from the right, and Sibirski grabbed the spot, but due to Hyypia's confrontation, the header missed the far post.

Continuous attacks failed to achieve results, and Liverpool's defender began to advance forward to assist.

After Riise made the assist from the left, Kewell pulled forward to open up Manchester City's defensive width.

Li Tiancheng's eyes lit up: This leaves room for Riise to cut inside to the edge of the penalty area.

Sure enough, Gerrard passed a long ball to the side, Kewell knocked the ball back to the penalty area, and Riise grabbed a long shot!

Football is high again.

In comparison, Manchester City's offensive method is much simpler.

The traditional British long pass will not have much effect in front of Carragher and Hyypia who are waiting hard.

When Liverpool attacked again, they switched to the right, and the situation on the right was different again.

When Josemi moves forward, Finnan, who is on the right midfielder, is used to retreating a little, just in case. At the same time, he can also receive Josemi's return pass and pass directly into the penalty area.

This time Manchester City's left back Thatcher tackled Josemi who was about to hit the ball, and the referee Bol showed the first yellow card of the game.

"It's now the 27th minute of the first half, the score is still 0:0, and Liverpool got a free kick opportunity."

"The set piece is a powerful tool to break the situation. We saw that Josemi personally took the free kick from Liverpool. Josemi passed the ball directly into the penalty area."

"Dunn, Manchester City's captain Dunn cleared the ball out of the penalty area, and Kewell grabbed the second spot and shot directly!"

"The ball is high again! Liverpool need to improve their ability to seize opportunities."

"Yes, I don't know if it is due to the tactical arrangement. Liverpool forwards Cisse and Baros are not active. This is very inappropriate."

"Hey, Cisse is the top scorer in Ligue 1, and Baros is the golden boot in this year's European Cup. But now it seems that they can't fill the vacancy left by Owen's departure. I think this is Li Tiancheng's chance to fight for it.

Tiancheng performed very well as a forward in the Barcelona youth team." Zhang Lu thinks this situation is not bad.

"Really, Li Tiancheng averaged 1.6 goals per game in the Spanish Youth League. This was achieved when he often needed to be distracted to organize attacks, second only to Bojan 1.9, so many people, including Lamar

The coaches in West Asia don’t understand why Barcelona let Li Tiancheng go.” Liu Jianhong took the opportunity to defend Li Tiancheng.

"Hehe, it's actually not bad for Tiancheng to come to Liverpool. He can directly join the first team and be able to play at the highest level. This level of competition is very good for the training of the players."

"Well, Manchester City's attack was interrupted again, and Liverpool started to counterattack again..."
