In the 23rd minute of the game, Mo Yang took the ball in the left half and as soon as he crossed the center line, he fell directly into the triangle surrounded by Manchester United's three people, Lukaku, Mkhitaryan and Martial.
Mo Yang hurriedly found the opportunity before the cage shrunk, and came directly with two consecutive fried balls. He was about to rush out from Lukaku, but he did not expect Martial to suddenly stretch his foot to say goodbye to him, and immediately lost it.
Balance fall.
Fortunately, Clattenburg was not completely blind and blew the foul whistle directly, and then warned Martial to restrain his little moves.
On the sidelines, Mourinho saw Mo Yang's unsuccessful breakthrough this time. Although he was smiling, his heartbeat had suddenly accelerated.
"This kid has gained weight again and seems to be more flexible!"
He set up a triangular cage for Mo Yang in an area far away from the penalty area, and did not invest too much force. He only needed to restrict Mo Yang from shooting the ball forward and achieved his goal.
But Mo Yang has successfully broken through several times during this period, which really gives Mourinho a headache. This guy's individual combat ability is on the same level as that monster from Barcelona.
In the 29th minute of the game, Manchester United once again seized the opportunity to counterattack.
Mo Yang took a corner kick and went directly to Ibrahimovic, who was surrounded by Manchester United players.
The ball accurately found Ibrahimovic's head, but when Ibrahimovic took off to head the ball towards the goal, he was pulled by Smalling covertly.
This caused Ibrahimovic to lean back in the air. As a result, the ball passed De Gea's fingers and hit the crossbar, which made the fans at the scene extremely regretful.
After the ball bounced back, it fell to the feet of Mkhitaryan, who was on the right at the top of the arc.
Mkhitaryan half-turned and quickly distributed the ball to the right wing. Martial started to speed up, strode forward for the ball, and then jumped up to avoid Robertson's sliding tackle.
After dribbling the ball across the center line, Martial saw Van Dijk in front slow down, and he suddenly became alert.
The Dutchman, who was famous in the Premier League last season and is known as a world-class central defender, has no confidence in passing.
So he quickly made the right choice and directly took a long diagonal pass to Lingard on the left front.
Seeing Martial passing the ball, Matip immediately turned around and rushed in front of Lingard, trying to compete with Alexander-Arnold and Fabinho who were chasing behind Lingard.
However, he did not see that the moment he turned around, Lukaku in the middle suddenly accelerated and rushed directly to the position he left like a heavy tank.
Van Dijk saw it, Lingard saw it too.
Van Dijk immediately rushed into the space because he knew that 90% of the time Lingard would pass the ball.
Lingard faced the incoming ball and did not take a step back. He raised his left leg before being surrounded by Matip and three others and passed the ball straight.
After the ball was passed out, it rolled exactly in the direction of Lukaku.
Van Dijk ran to death, but Lukaku was shorter and had a better position. He could only watch as Lukaku, who was one position ahead of him, received the ball.
After Lukaku got the ball, his speed dropped sharply, giving Alexander-Arnold and Van Dijk, who were chasing after him, a chance to close the door.
But just when the two of them quickly moved closer to close the door to defend, Lukaku made his choice. As soon as he ran into the penalty arc, he shot low into the lower left corner of the goal.
At the moment of lightning, Alisson, who came to the end line of the small penalty area, suddenly fell to the ground and pounced to the right, and touched the ball with the front part of his finger.
Suddenly the ball changed direction slightly, barely grazing the goalpost and rolling out of the bottom line.
The scene was in an uproar, and then the whole place gave Alisson warm applause.
Seeing that the ball did not go in, Mourinho danced and looked extremely annoyed.
"Too passive, we need to adjust! Yang needs Klopp's help!"
In the commentary box, Berglin couldn't be happy when he saw Alisson's amazing performance.
Manchester United was too targeted in this game, and this kind of quick counterattack was really terrifying.
Manchester United's attack just now completed a very threatening shot with just three passes. The efficiency and effect of this counterattack are terrifying.
He had a hunch that if Klopp didn't make adjustments quickly, they might not be far away from conceding a second goal.
After Klopp saw Manchester United's attack on the sidelines, he knew he could not wait any longer.
On the right side of the Liverpool penalty area, Pogba took a corner kick and gave it to Matic in the back post.
Matic leaped high and headed towards the near corner.
Alisson ignored the possibility that he would hit the goal post, dived, and once again saved the ball from the baseline.
So in the next three minutes, Manchester United launched a siege in front of Liverpool's penalty area, making the more than 50,000 Red Army fans present extremely nervous.
"Too passive!" Zhang Lu in the live broadcast room shook her head. "Klopp's problem now is how to limit the fast whirlwind on the wing like Manchester United."
Zhan Jun nodded, "Liverpool's frontcourt press is not effective now. Once Manchester United gets the ball, it will quickly move the ball to the gap behind Liverpool without giving you time to surround it. But Klopp's tactics require Arnold
The two full-backs and Robertson went deep and participated in the attack."
While the two were talking, Manchester United took another fourth corner kick, directly looking for Lukaku in the center.
But this time Lukaku was crushed by Van Dijk and the ball was cleared out of the penalty area.
"Yang! Opportunity!"
"A chance to fight back!"
In the commentary box, when he saw the ball flying straight to Mo Yang on the left side of the top of the arc, Beglin stood up with infinite hope and roared.
Pogba, who did not go deep into the penalty area to fight for the top, and Mkhitaryan in front of the top of the key saw the ball flying towards Mo Yang. They both remembered Mourinho's instructions before the game and immediately rushed towards Mo Yang, one on the left and the other on the right.
The two rushed to Mo Yang's side, and the ball fell right at Mo Yang's feet.
Just when everyone thought Mo Yang was going to stop the ball, Mo Yang, who was facing his own goal, suddenly raised his right foot forward. The moment the ball touched the ground, he kicked it hard with his right heel.
On the ball.
A scene that immediately caused the souls of Manchester United players and Red Devils fans to panic, and made the blood of countless Red Army fans boil.
In everyone's sight, the ball hit by Mo Yang's heel was like an arrow off the string, rolling diagonally against the turf in front of Mane and Valencia.
"God! Yang is as elegant and calm as a medieval prince!"
"Fuck!" Mourinho cursed after being stunned for a while on the sidelines.
How the hell can this be passed on? Has this kid’s brain been touched by God?
Mourinho thought of countless ways to pass the ball, but he never thought that he could pass the ball backwards with his back and heel, and he could pass it so accurately.
God! This is so terrible!
In Mourinho's sight, Mane is fighting for speed in Valencia.
But running ten meters away, Valencia's weakness in continuous acceleration as compared to Mane's became apparent.
"Push it to me!"
"Goal!"
"Mane!"
"Mane!"
"Mane!"
The high-pitched and passionate shouts in the stands around Anfield were like a shocking wave. At this moment, all the fans were cheering for Mane.
However, just when everyone thought that Mane, who was the first to receive the ball, would dribble the ball towards the Manchester United goal, Mane made an astonishing move.
After getting the ball, Mane, who was entangled by Valencia, crossed the center line from the wing and suddenly kicked the ball low and crossed.
"watt!"
"pretty!"
"Mane's cross pass is transferred to Salah's side. He, he, he has no one to defend him!"
In the commentary box, his eyes followed Mane's kick to Liverpool's right wing. When Berglin saw Salah going deep alone, his eyes were bloodshot with excitement. This was an excellent scoring opportunity.
