In the blink of an eye, the kick-off time is approaching, and players from both sides appear in the tunnel waiting to take the field.
In front of the passage, the English Football Association has placed the Premier League champion Barclays Cup in front of the entrance passage.
The golden crown and silver-white cup body shine under the light.
This is the Premier League's highest honor that countless Premier League clubs compete for every year.
"Captain, is this trophy real? Could it be a replica?" In the queue, Mane lowered his voice and poked Henderson in front of him.
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately pricked up their ears to listen.
Henderson smiled. He really knew it and said: "It's the real Barclays Cup. The replica was placed by the Football Association at Chelsea."
"yeah!"
Everyone in Liverpool was in an uproar, and everyone seemed extremely excited.
If it is a replica, although it will be replaced by the real thing in the end, it will probably be a bit awkward when holding the cup.
As long as they win this game, they will win the first Barclays Cup in Liverpool's history and go down in Liverpool's history.
In the Leeds United queue, Bai Lele saw Mo Yang's salivating look, rolled his eyes, looked around like a thief, and then stretched out his left toe to poke Mo Yang's butt next to him.
"Haha!" When the players from the two teams behind saw this scene, they would all smile.
Mo Yang turned around and glared at Bai Lele, then kicked Bai Lele in the butt.
"Hey! I can't hit you!" Bai Lele dodged shyly.
As a result, Mo Yang slapped Bamford on the buttocks, causing the guy to cover his buttocks and scream, looking at Mo Yang with a look of resentment on his face.
Suddenly the players from both teams burst into laughter!
This scene was also captured on camera and put on the big screen at the scene, causing Anfield to burst into laughter.
"These two little bastards will never be serious together!" Mo Xiangdong and others in the private room also watched with amusement.
Not long after, Mo Yang and Bai Lele received the death stares from Klopp and Bielsa, and they immediately calmed down.
After a while, after a series of pre-match procedures, players from both sides appeared on the court.
"Beep!"
"Okay! The game begins!"
"Welcome to the 38th round of the 2016-17 Premier League season, the match between Liverpool and Leeds United brought to you by LeTV Sports!"
"This game is the final battle of the Premier League this season, and it is also a life and death battle between Liverpool and Chelsea for the championship!"
"Zhang Zhi, what do you think of this game, or which team do you like?" Zhan Jun asked with a smile.
"Definitely Liverpool!" Zhang Lu ignored the pit dug by Zhan Jun, "Judging from the strength of the opponents of the two teams, Leeds United is much better than Sunderland, especially in terms of offensive ability."
"So this game should be more difficult for Liverpool than Chelsea, but I think it should be no problem to win the game!"
On the field, after the game started, the rhythm of both sides was very fast, especially the transition between offense and defense, which was very fast. It was clearly a fierce offensive battle, and the winner or lose depended on who scored more goals.
In the third minute of the game, Liverpool's attack failed.
Silvestri took a goal kick and gave it to Phillips who retreated to receive the ball.
After Phillips got the ball, he was immediately pressed by Firmino, and the first few passing points were blocked by Liverpool.
So without saying a word, he protected the ball with his strong body, advanced with the ball himself, leaned towards the left half of the court, and ran diagonally.
But soon, he was blocked by Mo Yang.
But Phillips remained calm and waited for Mo Yang to rush over before suddenly taking a pass and knocking the ball directly to Madison in front.
Robertson was right behind Madison. When he saw the ball coming, he immediately got up from behind and prevented Madison from turning around.
Unexpectedly, Madison had no intention of stopping the ball. He rubbed the ball with the outside of his right foot and directly distributed the ball to the wing.
At the same time, Dallas, who had already started early, received the ball, took one or two steps and directly passed it to Bai Lele in front.
After receiving the ball, Bai Lele ejected, cut inward diagonally, and headed towards the left rib of Liverpool's penalty area.
Matip ran over and fell to the ground on the edge of the penalty area with a sliding tackle.
Seeing that the two of them were about to collide, Bai Lele suddenly accelerated quickly and at the same time kicked his right foot to the left. He stumbled and avoided Matip's sliding tackle without even giving him a chance to foul.
"Danger!"
In the commentary box, Berglin jumped out of his seat nervously, and so did the fans at the scene, all of whom looked very nervous.
After Bai Lele rushed into the penalty area, he originally planned to cross the middle, but he found that Van Dijk had been blocking his passing line after returning to the penalty area, but could not come over, so he threw him to the goalkeeper to deal with.
Seeing that he was about to miss the shooting angle, Bai Lele took a decisive step and hit the ball with the inside of his left foot, directly hitting the short corner.
"Woo!!!"
The fans at the scene suddenly let out a short exclamation when they saw Alisson falling to the ground and stretching his legs to block Bai Lele's shot.
But Leeds United's attack was not over yet. The ball crossed the crossbar and bounced off the baseline. Leeds United got the first corner kick.
"666666! The dirty demon king is mighty!"
"The Dirty Demon King's left and right feet are quite balanced, and his height of 193cm is actually quite flexible!"
"Seeing the speed of the Evil Demon King, I feel like I drank a bottle of 1982 diabetes. It's sweet to my heart. This acceleration ability is so awesome!"
"6666, upstairs, I have some freshly brewed wine, would you like to taste the sweetness?"
In the live broadcast room, seeing Bai Lele's visually impactful attack, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu kept applauding, and the barrage was also very enthusiastic.
Soon, Leeds United took a corner kick and went directly to Bai Lele in the penalty area.
The result was no exception. With Van Dijk around, this kind of high-altitude ball could not threaten Liverpool's goal.
Under the interference of Van Dijk, Bai Lele missed the top, and was easily picked off by Alisson who came out and jumped high.
Alisson remembered Klopp's instructions before the game, ran ahead immediately after his feet landed, then bent down and threw the ball to the right of the penalty arc.
The ball was thrown with just the right force, so that Mo Yang, who had already run out of the penalty area in advance, did not need to slow down at all and drove the ball towards Leeds United's half with just one stab of his foot.
As for Leeds United, they invested too much force in this corner kick. At this time, there was only Cooper in the middle, but Dallas and Ayling were both on the left and right wings.
Mo Yang was dribbling the ball at high speed while observing both sides of the ball. He found that Firmino had pulled to the wing and made way for him in the middle.
So Mo Yang didn't pass the ball and continued to lead forward.
Two seconds later, Mo Yang found that Firmino in front suddenly began to run diagonally towards the center, and directly took away Dallas on the wing, leaving the right wing free.
Mo Yang knew the reason for Firmino's movement.
But just when he was about to pass the ball to the wing, he suddenly found that his old captain Cooper was stopped at the back of the center circle, seeming to be waiting for him to pass.
Mo Yang guessed Cooper's intention in an instant, so he had a new plan.
I saw him continuing to dribble the ball with long strides, and the ball traveled even wider.
But just as he was approaching the center line, he suddenly felt someone rushing over behind him, which was a very strange early warning.
This sudden change forced Mo Yang to give up Plan B again.
But it doesn't matter, it won't trouble him.
Mo Yang's speed suddenly slowed down while he was running. As he approached Cooper, two consecutive Marseille pirouettes suddenly occurred. He moved two positions laterally.
The moment Mo Yang left his position, Bai Lele rushed towards him. He suddenly stopped and fell to the ground. He was embarrassed and a little funny, and almost knocked down Cooper in front.
"boom!!"
Seeing this wonderful and thrilling dodge, the Anfield stadium was shaken again, and cheers swept away like a tsunami.
Dodging Bai Lele's sneak attack from behind, Mo Yang calmly stuffed the ball into the left rib of the Leeds United penalty area.
The ball came to the player, and Salah, who came in from the right, received Mo Yang's pass.
Dallas saw Salah receiving the ball in the ribs, but he did not dare to move because Cooper temporarily changed his mind. They were now the only ones in the penalty area with Ayling on the left and back in position.
Fortunately, it didn't take long before Cooper ran back from the front.
Cooper saw Salah getting the ball in his ribs and became even more anxious.
At this moment, Cooper just hoped that Salah would not pass the ball, but dribble the ball into the penalty area and hit the goal as he analyzed before the game, so that he would have time to return to the penalty area.
But he thought too much, and Salah made the opposite choice this time.
He passed the ball!
The ball rolled past one meter in front of Cooper and came to Firmino.
When Dallas saw the ball coming, he stuck to Firmino. As long as Firmino shot, he would stretch out his foot to block it.
But he never expected that Firmino did not choose to receive the ball, but chose to miss it.
When Mane saw the ball coming, he immediately broke away from Ayling's pull and slid to the ground, and shoveled the ball into the Leeds United gate very simply.
“goal!!!!!”
“gooooooooaaaaaaaaaal!!!!!”
Commentator: The moment Silbergreen's roar sounded, the whole Anfield began to shake, giving people the illusion that the world was turning upside down.
At the same time, outside Anfield Stadium, cheers with endless joy rang out over the entire city.
That was the cheers from Liverpool fans scattered in every square in the city or watching the game in bars.
If you look down at the city of Liverpool at this time, you will find that Liverpool seems to have been ignited by this goal, and there are gorgeous fireworks everywhere.
You can see cheering fans and hugs from passers-by everywhere on the streets.
In the private stands at the scene, Mo Xiangdong and Bai Weidong hugged and celebrated. Their eyes were red with excitement, and they completely forgot that their other son was the one who scored.
Xiao Di was also excited, with waves in his chest and two blushes on his pretty face, looking extremely excited.
Even Chen Yao and Zheng Li, two middle-aged women who didn't even understand the rules of football, felt their heartbeats speed up and their throats felt a little bitter after hearing the cheers with endless enthusiasm and joy.
Something choked me.
Only Reed and Elena, who were smiling, were slightly calm.
