After the fourth round of the League Cup, Chelsea, Liverpool, Ahna, Manchester City, Everton, Tottenham Hotspur, Blackburn and West Ham United advanced to the quarterfinals. Manchester United, among the four giants, was eliminated. However, in the League Cup, which is known as a hotbed for unpopularity, it is not shocking to be eliminated, which has always been ignored.

After the fourth round, the FA played the quarter-final draw that night. Liverpool and Chelsea were very bad luck. They were drawn together, and Arsenal had average luck. They were against Blackburn, a mid-to-upstream team in the league. The other two groups were Manchester City, where Chinese player Sun Hai was located, challenging Tottenham, and Everton competed with West Ham.

Chelsea was last year's League Cup champion, and they beat Arsenal 2-1 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff last year, while Liverpool was last year's League champion. Their meeting between Chelsea and Liverpool is basically equivalent to an early final.

Manchester City, where Chinese player Sun Hai is located, beat Bolton 1-0 away, and reached the quarterfinals of the League Cup for the first time in 7 years. Their opponent is Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham Hotspur’s record is deteriorating. He has only won one game in 11 games so far. If Liverpool beat Chelsea and Manchester City overcomes Tottenham’s level, the League Cup may usher in the Chinese derby for the first time.

According to the schedule, the first round of the quarter-finals will be held on December 17, and the final of this season is scheduled to be held at Wembley on February 24. After Wembley is rebuilt, the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff in Wales has fulfilled its seven-year hosting duties.

The substitutes won tickets to the quarterfinals of the League Cup for Liverpool, which is also very important for Liverpool. They are ambitious this season and are determined to win the triple crown or even all the championships, so physical fitness is very important to them. When they played with Arsenal in the last game, they were tied by Arsenal because of their lack of physical fitness. If the substitutes can help Liverpool share the cup, then Liverpool's goals will be easier to achieve.

After knowing that the opponent of the League Cup is Chelsea, Liverpool's coaches have a headache. It is too early to meet a giant team like Chelsea in the quarter-finals. Chelsea and Arsenal should meet again in the finals. They will definitely not dare to play on the bench when playing against Chelsea. All the main players may not win, and even more so, the substitutes are not good. However, all the main players are fighting against Chelsea in the quarter-finals of the League Cup.

However, it will take more than a month before the game, and Liverpool does not have to worry about the League Cup. What they are important now is their opponent Blackburn, who won the 12th round of the league. Blackburn has played well this season. Now they have 6 wins, 2, 2 draws and 3 draws, ranking 5th, second only to Chelsea, ranking fifth. The momentum is so strong that Liverpool dare not underestimate it.

Blackburn was 10th in the Premier League last season, reaching the top 32 of the League Cup and reaching the top 4 of the League Cup. Only the league cup scored a little worse, and is a typical middle-class team in the Premier League.

Blackburn's head coach Mark Hughes is very capable. Under his training, Blackburn is famous for his tough playing style and fierce fighting. From last season to now, he has been the top red and yellow card player in the Premier League. Not only Liverpool, but any Premier League team will have a headache when they see them.

Blackburn's heavyweight signing this season is handsome forward Santa Cruz. Other Dutch shooter Rigstes scored only 5 goals in 60 matches for Breda and has never been selected for the Dutch national team. Nelson's arrival was only used as a substitute for goalkeeper Friedel, but after strengthening Santa Cruz, South African scorer McKinsey is no longer isolated and helpless. The help to Blackburn is equivalent to "Liverpool got Chen Yu", Blackburn's head coach Mark Hughes said.

Although Blackburn is known for his fierceness and toughness, they are not reckless men like Reading. They have England internationals David Bentley and Pederson, Savage and Tugai's midfield dispatch and interception abilities that cannot be underestimated. McCarthy and Santa Cruz are composed of skills, physical strength and height. In combination, Blackburn is really not easy to mess with.

However, no matter how hard Blackburn is to play, Liverpool must win, because this round Liverpool also got the same opportunity as Chelsea in the last round. In this round of Premier League, Arsenal and Manchester United met in a narrow road. No matter what the results of these two teams appear, Liverpool and Chelsea are beneficiaries, especially Liverpool. Now Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United have the same points. If it weren't for Manchester United and Arsenal's two tigers competing, Liverpool didn't know when they would be able to get rid of them, and now their opportunity has come.

Mark Hughes is a legendary Manchester United, and Manchester United and Liverpool are irreconcilable opponents. These two teams will definitely not be calm before the game. Blackburn's head coach Mark Hughes said he would break Liverpool's unbeaten golden body. South African scorer McCarthy scored 5 goals in the last four rounds, which inevitably became a little inflated. He said that he would break the phenomenon of Chen Yu dominating the scorer list this season.

Liverpool is not vague when facing the challenge of his opponent. Benitez is unwilling to say too mean things when facing a superstar coach like Mark Hughes. He just said lightly that if Blackburn has this ability, let them break it. Chen Yu looked down on McCarthy's adjustments and sneered that anyone can win the best scorer, but no matter who wants to be the best scorer, he must score more than 38 goals, and don't think about those below 38 goals.

The coaches and stars of the two teams are so hot, and the two teams have performed so well. Under normal circumstances, as long as the media instigates, this is the rhythm of the war of saliva, but this round is not possible, because the focus of media attention in this round is Arsenal and Manchester United. Whether it is fans, reporters, or stars from all sides of England, celebrities are concerned about the focus battle between Manchester United and Arsenal. TV, the Internet and print media have also put the news of Arsenal and Manchester United on the front page. Only Liverpool's own media has done so, since Liverpool and Blackburn were originally quite important games, but now it has become insignificant.

Arsenal and Manchester United are old opponents. They have been fighting in the Premier League for 11 years. The two competed in the first 33 times. In the league, the FA Cup and the League Cup, they all happened to be tied. It was only because of the four Community Shield (Charity Shield) meeting Wenger and winning three times that the professor had a slight advantage in overall record with 14 wins, 7 draws and 12 losses, but the goal was 37 to 41.

The media is happy to see the two famous coaches not being incompatible. In every Arsenal and Manchester United battle, Wenger had to fight Ferguson in every battle between Arsenal and Manchester United, and the media would also add fuel to the fire, allowing the Gunners and the Red Devils to reach a small climax before the game and attract the attention of fans. But in recent years, with the rise of Chelsea and Liverpool's king, Manchester United and Arsenal are no longer direct competitors, but they have common enemies, Chelsea and Liverpool.

As they are no longer champions, the relationship between Wenger and Ferguson has eased a lot. Since the pizza battle three years ago, the two teams have never had much conflict. Although Wenger has never followed Ferguson's habit of drinking after the game, they did have dinner together during several UEFA meetings and have not seen anyone turn the table up, so at least they are no longer enemies.

What makes Liverpool happy is that the match between Arsenal and Manchester United was played before them. According to convention, such matches will be used as the finale of this round and will be put to the end. This round of Arsenal and Manchester United not only did not end in the last game, but also played to the front of Liverpool and Blackburn, Chelsea and Wigan Athletics matches, which is equivalent to giving Liverpool and Chelsea the initiative.

Manchester United and Arsenal were played at 12.45 noon on November 3, Chelsea and Wigan Athletics were played at 3 pm, while Liverpool and Blackburn were played at 5:15 pm.

Because the gap between the three games is too small, there is no time to go to the scene to see it. Liverpool coach Benitez took the players to watch the strong dialogue between Manchester United and Arsenal during lunch.

Arsenal was at home and had just tied Liverpool away. The morale and confidence of the players were simply overwhelmed. After the kick-off, Arsenal pressed the ball and launched a counterattack, making Manchester United very passive after the opening.

However, Manchester United's experience is richer than that of Liverpool. When they are passive, they do not lose the ability to counterattack. They rely on counterattack to relieve the pressure on the defense line, slowly recovering a little passive situation and breaking the deadlock in stoppage time in the first half.

At that time, Manchester United defender Brown passed the ball, C-Ronaldo passed the ball low from the right, Rooney's shot deflected from 6 yards in the front point and Galas failed to block the ball. This was Rooney's 9th goal in his last 8 games, and his fifth league goal this season, and also his sixth goal against Arsenal.

Arsenal's youth team was also not vague. They immediately equalized the score at the beginning of the second half. Eb made a cross, and Adebayo's shot from 6 yards at the front was blocked by Van der Sar. Sania passed back near the baseline on the right side of the penalty area. Fabregas shot low from 10 yards into the net in the lower left corner. This is his 10th goal this season, and the goal rate has been Jin and Chen Yu.

Arsenal then still took the initiative on the field, but the first goal was still the experienced Manchester United. In the 82nd minute, Manchester United striker Saha made a wonderful pass from the left, and Evra broke into the left side of the penalty area and made another cross. At this time, C-Ronal inserted at high speed and shot into the empty goal from 6 yards. This was his third goal against Arsenal in the away game.

A 82-minute goal can basically determine the outcome of the game, but Manchester United's victory is not pleasant to Liverpool. They actually hope that Arsenal will win because they know that the young people are not long-lasting enough and are running side by side with Arsenal. Liverpool can easily get rid of them, but it is not reassuring to be followed by a cunning team like Manchester United.

However, Arsenal is in such a strong momentum now. Although he conceded the goal again in the 82nd minute, Arsenal was not panicked. He still used his skillful cooperation to deal with Manchester United, and often changed the rhythm. Sometimes short passes penetrated, and sometimes suddenly turned into long passes and suspended passes, making Manchester United players unable to defend.

Manchester United is really tenacious and has persisted until the end of the regular game time and has not given Arsenal a chance to score.

But just as the fourth official raised the stoppage time sign, Arsenal suddenly scored a goal.

At this time, 91 minutes had passed. Walcott passed by the right side of the penalty area. Galas's shot outside the left edge of the small penalty area was saved by Van der Sar inside the goal line. However, the lineman made the correct judgment and determined that the goal was valid. Arsenal tied the score at 72:2.

Such a score is something that neither Arsenal nor Manchester United want to accept, but there is no time for the game, and no matter how unwilling the two teams are, there is no way.

Arsenal and Manchester United draw against Chelsea and Liverpool is simply great news. Among the three relationships of wins, draws and losses, the best thing against Liverpool is Manchester United and Arsenal. They did not expect that Manchester United and Arsenal would really draw.

Next is the game between Chelsea and Wigan Athletics. Although Liverpool players have already trained and cannot pay attention, Liverpool coaches are still paying close attention to the situation between Chelsea and Wigan Athletics.

Liverpool definitely hopes that Chelsea will draw or lose, but now Grant seems to have found a way to coach Chelsea. Faced with the tough game of Wigan Athletics, they rely on the goals of Lampard and Beletti to beat Wigan Athletics 2:0. Then Grant attended the press conference after the game and took the players to watch the Liverpool and Blackburn game in the studio hall of Stamford Bridge Stadium.

Although Liverpool really hopes that Arsenal and Manchester United can tie, now that the two teams really tie, Liverpool players feel a lot of pressure.

After the game started, Liverpool played very cautiously, and after the opening, he was once suppressed by Blackburn. In the first thirty minutes of the game, Blackburn shot four times.

During these 30 minutes, Gerald was intercepted and counterattacked. Dunn broke through Mascherano and Carragher in the front of Liverpool's penalty area and broke into the penalty area. Renner saved the ball. Chen Yu was knocked down after taking the ball in the frontcourt, but the referee did not call a foul.
