On the sidelines and in the media area, many media reporters from South Korea were excited, forming a very sharp contrast with the silent Chinese media.
After the celebration, some Korean reporters even looked at Wei Bowen and others with provocative and playful eyes, almost saying that they had won the so-called Asian Derby, which was highly exaggerated in South Korea.
Son Heung-min has always been the most shining football star in South Korea. Being able to gain a foothold in the Premier League is enough to make South Koreans proud of Asia.
This sense of superiority makes them intoxicated and arrogant. Some fans even look down on Ronaldo and Messi and shout that Son Heung-min is the best.
But in the 15-16 season, the same year that Sun Heung-min moved to the Premier League, Mo Yang, also an Asian player, also emerged in England.
Initially, the Korean media thought he was just a role player.
I never expected that after one season, Mo Yang, who joined the Premier League giant Liverpool, would take off.
Especially this year, Mo Yang's development can be said to have crushed Sun Xingmin.
The difference in worth between the two has doubled, and the difference in fame is even greater. Their sense of superiority was instantly destroyed.
On the court, Mo Yang was a little depressed after conceding two goals in a row.
He is now more and more aware of the importance of Van Dijk on the court.
With that guy around, the team's defense will rarely make low-level mistakes under his command.
However, at the last moment of the game against Maribor, Van Dijk was hit with a retaliatory elbow by a Maribor player. The corner of his eye was slightly cracked, so he was not included in the starting lineup for this game. As a result, the defense immediately started to cause trouble.
After the restart, Moyang received a direct pass from Lovren.
However, he did not immediately start to organize the offense after receiving the ball. Instead, he raised his hands and pressed down, indicating to everyone to slow down the rhythm. He also sent a signal to all teammates that he wanted to slow down the rhythm of the game.
Mo Yang's purpose in slowing down the pace of the game was to stabilize the team's defense, while avoiding and draining Tottenham's aggressive morale, and to calm down his teammates.
Tottenham is not a lower-tier team in the Premier League. It is a strong team that occupies the BIG6 every year.
When playing against such a strong team, the faster you go, the easier it is for loopholes to appear. Once you are caught with an opportunity, you are likely to lose the ball.
As for Tottenham head coach Pochettino imitating the cage restriction tactics Mourinho set for him, Mo Yang didn't take it too seriously.
He was a little worried at first, but after being trapped a few times, Mo Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Tottenham's cage did not give him the pressure of Manchester United.
Although Tottenham's cage looks similar to Manchester United's, it actually just looks scary.
Of course, there are still certain restrictions. At least he can't handle the ball as he wants, so he has to put some thought into it.
Klopp on the sidelines didn't take Pochettino's cage tactics into consideration either.
Because neither Tottenham's two main midfielders were on the court in this game, Dier and Wanyama were both absent due to injuries.
Eriksen's defensive ability is a joke!
There are also two young players, Ali and Winks. Although they have some defensive ability, they cannot restrain Mo Yang. At most, they rely on their numerical advantage to make Mo Yang uncomfortable, and they are not as good as Manchester United.
In the 31st minute of the game, Liverpool got a ball from the right sideline in Tottenham's half.
Gomez threw the ball to Firmino who came to the ribs.
As a result, before Firmino could hold the ball firmly, he was bumped by Alli from behind. He lost his center of gravity and the ball was given to Winks.
Salah and Firmino immediately sandwiched Winks on the left and right to counterattack.
Unexpectedly, Winks, who looked a bit thin, resisted and staggered the ball to Kane who dropped back from the front to receive the ball.
Seeing Lovren follow up and push Kane from behind, Henderson stepped forward to steal the ball. Kane also immediately started to make a smart dunk of the ball to the right, knocking Henderson away and quickly turned around with the ball.
Kane wanted to find Son Heung-min in front, but saw Moyang stuck in the passing line.
Helpless, he could only advance with the ball by himself.
Arriving at the center circle, Kane's path was blocked by Robertson, forcing him to slow down.
As soon as he slowed down, Henderson caught up.
At the same time, Mo Yang quickly moved towards Kane, and the three of them formed a three-legged cage, which blocked Kane and forced him to turn around and face the side to protect the ball.
But within a few seconds, the ball at his feet was stabbed from under his crotch by Mo Yang, and he was knocked down by Robertson.
Henderson got the ball, tapped the inside of his right foot, and handed it directly to Mo Yang.
Mo Yang glanced at Tottenham's backcourt, good guys, five against one.
Salah is in the middle position between Aurier and Vertonghen.
Mo Yang quickly simulated the scene after passing the ball in his mind, and he found that there seemed to be an opportunity.
So without any hesitation, he faced Salah's right side, suddenly raised his right foot while running, and rubbed the ball with his outer instep.
Suddenly an exaggerated arc streaked through the air, flying past Winks and Alderweireld one after another, but they couldn't touch each other even if they stretched their necks.
The ball bounced in front of Salah and Vertonghen.
In full view of everyone, Salah kept accelerating, like a red light. In the blink of an eye, he rushed out of the middle before Vertonghen and Aurier closed the door, and got Mo Yang's pass first.
In the penalty area, facing Hugo Lloris, Salah decisively kicked the ball.
The angle of Salah's push shot was also extremely tricky, allowing Lloris, who was diving sideways, to miss it by a hair. He could only watch the ball hit the inside of the goal post and bounce into the net.
Seeing the goal, Klopp jumped back, then rushed back to the coaching bench with his hands raised, hugging Peter and others in celebration.
Mo Yang had a heartfelt smile on his face and kept applauding, looking happily at Salah who ran to the corner flagpole to show off.
“goal!!!!!!!”
"The suspense of the game is back!"
"Salah's speed is too fast! Vertonghen and Aurier are too slow compared to his speed!"
"And Yang's unique curved pass, God! Yang's pass was so beautiful, it was still so shocking, the position was just right, Hugo Lloris couldn't give up and attack."
Berglin, who was almost autistic in the commentary box, was so excited by the sudden goal that he started shouting and yelling.
"Sir! This is a foul! Robertson pushed Kane down!" On the sidelines, an extremely excited Pochettino was pestering the fourth official on the sidelines.
But her face was full of smiles, and she looked like I just wanted to listen.
In fact, the fourth official saw Robertson's actions and did not take action at all, but this level of physical confrontation is not considered a foul in the Premier League.
In the box stand where the Tottenham chairman was sitting, Maradona in a suit and tie sat side by side with Tottenham chairman Levy next to him.
During this game, Maradona, who happened to be in England, came to cheer for Pochettino.
"Diego, how do Eriksson and Yang compare?" Levi asked with a smile.
As for the team getting a goal back, he didn't really care about it.
No rush! Still one goal ahead.
Maradona smiled when he heard this, was silent for a while, and said: "They are not players of the same level."
"I told the media a few days ago that Yang has the potential to become a legendary midfielder. I definitely did not say this casually, but he has the ability! Now I am even more convinced! My vision is not wrong!
"
"Although Eriksen is also an excellent midfielder, he can only compare with Yang in terms of passing. The rest... haha!"
These words made Levi a little unhappy!
He admitted that Eriksen was not as good as Mo Yang, but he didn't think it was as bad as Maradona said.
Tottenham could finish third in the Premier League last season, and Eriksen's contribution was huge.
But now he also regrets very much. He had the opportunity to take Mo Yang away.
It's a pity that Levi, who has always been very picky in the transfer market, finally gave up. Now he feels sick when he thinks about Mo Yang's worth of 150 million pounds.
