Manchester United and Chelsea, Ferguson and Mourinho, this battle between Tianwang Mountain attracted so much attention that even the Chinese derby between Chen Yu and Manchester City defender Sun Hai was almost ignored by European media.

This is Chen Yu and Sun Hai's first match in the Premier League, and it is also a truly influential Chinese derby. At least in Asia and China, the Chinese derby between Chen Yu and Sun Hai is comparable to the battle between Manchester United and Chelsea in terms of publicity.

Before Chen Yu arrived, there were Chinese derbys in the Premier League, but many times it was just a false reputation. Only Sun Hai can play as the main player in the Premier League, and other Chinese players basically sat on the bench to watch. Only Li Tie joined Everton's first season. The Chinese derby was worthy of his name, but the influence was too small, and it was neither related to relegation nor championship competition. Except for Asian and Chinese media, European media rarely paid attention to it.

This time, because of the battle between Manchester United and Chelsea, the Chinese derby between Chen Yu and Sun Hai was not hotly hyped in Europe, but because this game is related to the title and Manchester City's promotion and relegation, major European media still mention that they hope that Sun Hai can perform well in the confrontation with Chen Yu. It is best to limit Chen Yu and curb Chen Yu's momentum of crazy goals. Now no one in the Premier League and even in the European arena can stop Chen Yu from scoring goals. British media believe that Sun Hai and Chen Yu have a good relationship, know the roots and bottoms, and may be able to have miracles.

As the person involved, Chen Yu and Sun Hai have a good relationship. They went on the phone early. Chen Yu joked that Sun Hai would let Liverpool play, while Sun Hai asked Chen Yu to show mercy and not to go in too much. However, no matter how much jokes were, no one dared to show mercy at this time, and they had to do their best for their home team. As for the result, they could only decide based on their strength.

The focus battle between Manchester United and Chelsea remained on the last day, with Liverpool and Manchester City playing one day ahead of schedule.

Since Manchester City and Liverpool have a large difference in strength, although Liverpool plays away, as long as Liverpool plays its normal strength in this game, there will be no big problem to win Manchester City. In addition, Liverpool fans are more concerned about the game between Chelsea and Manchester United, so Liverpool fans have not paid much attention to this game against Manchester City. As in the past, Liverpool had to have at least tens of thousands of fans watching the game in Liverpool's away game, but now, only four or five thousand people have arrived at Manchester City's City Stadium.

Although the Manchester City commentator at the scene was very concerned about the victory or defeat of Manchester City, he still mentioned Manchester United and Chelsea many times, "... Although this is a match between Manchester City and Liverpool, this game will have a great impact on Manchester United and Chelsea. If Manchester City can beat Liverpool, Manchester United will definitely be much less pressure. They can only grasp the initiative to win the championship by tied with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. If Manchester City loses, Manchester United must win, otherwise Liverpool will surpass Manchester United and top the top of the standings. With four rounds left in the league, it is very dangerous to lose the initiative. If Manchester United is leading by one season, it is definitely impossible to accept such a result... Although defeating Liverpool objectively has

It is beneficial to the city's arch rival Manchester United, but Manchester City has to win in this game. Manchester City still has the risk of relegation. They must consider their own safety, rather than see if Manchester United can benefit. However, it is very difficult for Manchester City to win Liverpool. Liverpool has very balanced strength in all aspects. There are stars in all aspects, especially Chen on the front line, especially Chen on the front line, who has to score goals almost every game. If he cannot be restricted, Manchester City will lose in this game. Manchester City also has its own secret weapon, that is, China's Sun Hai, Sun Hai and Chen are friends, and they are also the best players in China. One of them defends and the other attacks. Sun Hai must be very familiar with Chen Yu. I hope he can see Chen Yu to death in this game..."

The live commentator thought this way, many Manchester City fans thought this way, and even Manchester City head coach Pierce thought this way. In this game with Liverpool, Pierce changed his formation and skills, allowing Sun Hai to put him on the back midfielder, rather than the full-back that Sun Hai often plays.

This tactical arrangement is a bit unexpected. Liverpool coach Benitez, who had just arrived at the stadium, was a little stunned when he saw Manchester City's position, but he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and forget it. After all, Manchester City's strength is there, and you just let the defender play the forward. That's it. Benitez doesn't think Sun Hai can play a big role in the midfield.

CCTV commentator He Shiren, who came to Manchester from China, was very happy to play the position of Sun Hai as a midfielder, because if Sun Hai plays as a full-back, no matter which side he plays, there will not be too many meetings with Chen Yu. If Sun Hai plays as a midfielder, he will have more opportunities to compete with Chen Yu, and fans can also feast their eyes and see which of the two best players in China is better.

Players from both sides came out of the locker room, players from both sides shook hands, and the captains exchanged team flags and logos to pick the sides, and the game started.

Manchester City, who kicked off the ball, today was a 414l formation, 15-Trabelsey, 16-Onoha, Dunn, Ball 17-Search 30-Coraldy, 33-Michael-Johnson, 8-Batton, Mpensa.

This formation is actually a variant of the 45l formation. It can help the team retain a certain degree of aggressiveness in the offense while maintaining a stable defense line. Moreover, this formation will basically not make mistakes even under the pressure of the opponent's crazy offensive, or the formation will not be scattered, because no matter what team faces a 414l formation, it will feel that it is very difficult to find an offensive breakthrough, and it is also difficult to find any good gaps to output the attack. In fact, this is because the 414l formation does not easily reveal any flaws when facing the opponent's attack. Even if the opponent can switch the offensive rhythm at high speed, this formation is still gradually becoming a rock.

Pierce's unusual formation was actually because Liverpool's attack power was too strong, so they had to temporarily change the formation, striving to restrain Liverpool's forward Chen Yu and cut off the connection between Liverpool's midfielder and forward line.

Although Benitez is known as a master of tactics, he did not expect Pierce to actually line up a strange formation, which made him a little confused. However, Benitez's starting lineup has been arranged, and he believes that his players will adjust their state and style of play and defeat Manchester City.

Compared with Manchester City, Liverpool's platoon is nothing special about the arrangement, it is the kind of ball that Liverpool often plays. 44 Chen Yu and Kuyt are partnering with the striker, 8 Gerald, 14 Heronso, Mascherano, and Riser, and four of them play in the midfield. On the back line, the four main players - Finnan, Ag, Carragher and Aveloa, all appeared on the court, and the goalkeeper is still the fast reaction and attacking fast.

After the kickoff, the home team Manchester City served the ball first, forwards Koradi and Belgian Muppenza kicked the ball back to the back line, and then quickly stepped forward to prepare to receive the pass from his backcourt.

The ball was controlled by Manchester City's midfielder Patton, and Patton did not pass the ball directly to the frontcourt. Although Manchester City's frontcourt included Coradi and Belgian striker Muppenza Jr., Liverpool's formation was not chaotic. If Patton passed it directly, Coradi and Muppenza Jr. would be difficult to grab the landing point. Patton felt that it would be better to pass the ball slowly forward to see where the opponent's flaws were, and then attack.

Liverpool needs to win this game to be able to wait for the battle between Manchester United and Chelsea with confidence. They will definitely not make Manchester City play so comfortable. After the kick-off, Liverpool strikers Chen Yu and Kuyt put pressure on the ball-holding players with the cooperation of the midfield and forced them to hand over the ball possession.

Patton passed the ball back to the defender, the defender passed it to goalkeeper Isaxon, and Isaxon passed it to midfielder Sun Hai again. At this time, Chen Yu also arrived quickly. When he saw the ball passing to Sun Hai, Chen Yu suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the ball, trying to steal the ball.

Sun Hai is not a rookie in the midfield position. Before this game, Sun Jihai had started in the midfield position for three consecutive games. In the past three games, Manchester City only lost one goal. Sun Jihai moved from the right forward to the middle to replace the injured Harman as the midfielder, which was helpless, but after a few games, Pierce seemed to slowly agree with this staffing. This important game also allowed Sun Hai to play.

Sun Hai is also very familiar with Chen Yu. When his teammate passed the ball, he saw Chen Yu looking here. He felt it was not good and immediately went forward to meet the ball. This was Sun Hai's move to meet the ball, which prevented the ball from being intercepted. Chen Yu saw that he could not get the ball, and gave up the flying tackle and continued to force Sun Hai to take the ball.

Sun Hai did not dare to be careless and immediately passed the ball before Chen Yu arrived.

Chen Yu and Sun Hai almost passed by each other. At this time, Chen Yu said in Sun Hai's ear: "I have never seen you hit the back, you played well."

Sun Hai said: "I have played several times, but you don't know yet. Are you fighting hard today?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "It's impossible not to fight. We still want to win the championship."

The two said a few words, and the situation on the field changed again. After Manchester City's ball ran several times in the backcourt, they saw Liverpool's players pressing forward. Captain Dunn directly passed the ball to Liverpool's penalty area, trying to fight a counterattack.

Dunn's kick was directly passed between Liverpool's midfielder and the defender, but Liverpool's players still gained the upper hand in the competition for header. Agh headed the ball back with a header, and the speed was faster.

This is an opportunity. Liverpool's striker and model worker Kuyt happened to be on the line where Agnes cleared. He headed the ball slightly to one side, and the ball flew towards Chen Yu.

Kuyt's ferry is quite threatening, because Chen Yu's position has already run between Manchester City's defender and midfielder, allowing Chen Yu to hold the ball, so he can both break into the penalty area and score directly.

Sun Hai's reaction was very decisive at this time. He rushed over and made a flying shovel, shoveled the ball away, and shoveled Chen Yu onto the turf.
