Chapter 1023

Carling Cup 14 final, Anfield stadium.

The stadium was packed with people.

Liverpool and Manchester City fans have now become the most confrontational groups in the Premier League.

In the Manchester City League, they will not miss any chance to cheer for the team when the two teams fight.

Even if this game is just the Carling Cup!

On the contrary, it reflects the mentality of the fans!

When situ Yunbing and Guardiola both set up a substitute rotation team in this game, fleet street was not surprised.

The two teams are struggling in the league. Under the background that the devil's schedule starts three days later, the League Cup game will definitely give up strategically!

Or fate!

Situ Yunbing wanted to mobilize the whole team before the war because at this time, any Liverpool substitute player will play a great role, such as Skrtel and VALDI.

The Carling Cup match can be seen as a competition between the two teams' second-line lineups.

Manchester City's away playing style is conservative. After all, it is a substitute team and can't be as dominant as the main team.

Relying on Jesus and Bernardo Silva in the front line is inferior to Liverpool with glizman, Sancho and sane.

In terms of midfield, the two teams are almost strangled by engineers. Liverpool's winger attack on the guard line is obviously stronger. Guerrero and Arnold, who is almost full-time this season, can still provide more help to the attack than Manchester City!

In the game, the two teams fought for every inch of land. From the third minute of the game, the two teams committed a foul every two minutes. The continuity of the game is not strong, and the brilliance is greatly reduced.

Both teams have retained their strength, but they will not easily lose the game!

Obviously, it's just a League Cup, but Guardiola and situ Yunbing are seriously and actively directing the game on the sidelines!

In fact, it is not important to win or lose the game. It may even be a good thing for the two teams to withdraw from the Carling Cup early. After all, the Carling Cup semi-final is a home and away game, which means that if the opponent is promoted and eliminated, there will be at least two Carling cups to play before the final!

Manchester City put all their eggs in the league, while Liverpool fought on many fronts without distraction.

But no one can lose to the opponent in front of him!

This is momentum and psychological consideration!

Therefore, on the premise of retaining strength, the substitute rotation lineup stimulates the strongest combat effectiveness, which is a tacit understanding between the two managers before the game.

Liverpool's offensive is stronger!

Whether it is individual ability or team fighting ability, Liverpool should play better at home.

In the first half, although the two teams had a blank draw, in the second half of the game, some players of the two teams received yellow cards, and the number of yellow cards of Manchester City players was two more, which led to a decline in their defense intensity.

In the 59th minute of the game, glitzmann received Madison's pass from the outside. After hitting the wall with Sancho, he entered the restricted area. When receiving, he smashed the ball directly to get rid of Manchester City's defender and sent the ball into the far corner of the goal!

Liverpool led Manchester City 1-0 at home!

All the Red Army fans cheered for glitzmann!

Situ Yunbing also clapped his hands and reminded the team to maintain the intensity of the game!

Manchester City must not be given any chance!

Guardiola looked stubborn and continued to command the team to launch a counterattack!

Although Manchester City launched a counterattack with great momentum, its performance in the last part of the attack was not satisfactory. Bernardo Silva still needs to improve his ability and experience, and some choices for handling the ball are not good.

In the 77th minute of the game, sane é received Zhise from Guerrero from the left of the front field. After he succeeded in anti offside, the ball changed to the restricted area. When facing defender Denayer, he suddenly shifted the ball to the opposite direction, but he was tripped by his opponent.

The referee decided to take a penalty!

Manchester City will protest fiercely to the referee. Denayer fiercely accused sane of diving, but the referee's decision will not be changed!

Situ Yunbing looked seriously at the Manchester City restricted area with his hands on his hips on the sidelines. Guardiola talked to the fourth official, but he didn't get any response. He angrily returned to the coach's seat, picked up water and drank a few drinks. As soon as he screwed on the bottle cap, he threw the mineral water bottle to the ground!

On the Liverpool side, glitzmann took the penalty kick in one move!

When the football flew into Manchester City's goal, situ Yunbing turned to face the stand, raised his arms repeatedly and shouted "we are the strongest! We are the best team! "

The atmosphere at Anfield exploded!

All the Red Army fans cheered at the top of their lungs!

Even the commentators and the reporters in the media gallery were stunned!

It's just a fucking Carling Cup!

But Liverpool and Manchester City have played an atmosphere of championship showdown!

Of course they don't understand. The efforts of the players of the two teams who go all out for the game every week to win the victory, as well as the nearly perfect performance of the two teams in nearly half a season, have sublimated the competition to another level!

Is this the Carling Cup?

Yes!

But this is the two teams are destined to fight head-on throughout the season!

Liverpool are two goals ahead of Manchester City!

In the last 10 minutes of the game, Manchester City seemed to have no skills, because Jesus and Bernardo Silva were obviously not strong players in this way.

Before the end of the game, Sancho missed a great opportunity, which caused the whole Red Army fans to sigh, but then he was applauded by the fans.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the whole game, situ Yunbing raised his fists and looked firm. He even turned to raise his chin slightly to Guardiola!

Guardiola didn't go to see situ Yunbing and walked quickly to the player channel with an unhappy face.

In the Carling Cup, Liverpool eliminated Manchester City and entered the top four!

In an interview after the game, situ Yunbing spoke highly of the victory.

"If the opponent is not Manchester City, our victory will be easier, but similarly, if the opponent is not Manchester City, it will not make this victory so enjoyable!

When you start talking about Liverpool losing the league title, we first eliminated Manchester City in the Carling Cup!

Next, we will catch up with them in the League! "

When the reporter asked situ Yunbing, Manchester City was just on the bench!

Situ Yunbing also asked, "isn't Liverpool?"? Do you see any signs that Manchester City will give up the game?

Will they take it for granted to lose to Liverpool? "

Guardiola hinted after the game that Liverpool had received some care at home.

"Since the first half of the game, Manchester City players have more cards than Liverpool players. Obviously, with similar defensive actions, we will be fouled. Liverpool may not. We will get a yellow card, but Liverpool just get a verbal warning.

The penalty kick in the second half is debatable.

I don't want this to happen the next time Manchester City visit Anfield

Guardiola is also smart and knows to put pressure on the referee. Although it will certainly make him warned by the FA, he needs to do so.

Because the next time Manchester City visit Anfield stadium, if the two teams do not meet in the FA Cup, it will be the confrontation between the two teams at Anfield stadium in the second half of the League!

Guardiola made no mention of the impact of Manchester City's elimination from the Carling Cup.

Manchester City originally focused on the league. If the opponent is not Liverpool, even if they lose today, they may be relieved and can concentrate on preparing for each round of the League!

Fleet Street's evaluation of this war is: warm up for the decisive battle!

After the Carling Cup, Liverpool only have two days to rest, and then they will start the Christmas devil match. Liverpool will end the game in the 19th round of the league and go to the Emirates Stadium to challenge Arsenal!

Britain has entered the Christmas holiday. Situ Yunbing's father-in-law and mother-in-law came to Liverpool to spend Christmas with them and help take care of Sigrid who is about to give birth.

The villa I live in is too big. I'm afraid I can't be busy if I decorate the Christmas atmosphere by myself, so situ Yunbing invited someone to decorate the home. A Christmas tree was placed in the living room and hung with colored stripes. There were Christmas balls on the Christmas tree. Situ Jin also received a lot of gifts.

They were all sent by situ Yunbing's former or current colleagues, players who had coached, and his friends.

This makes him and Sigrid very helpless. They have no way to buy a gift for their children now!

Because what can be seen in the market, Si Tujin basically has

On the afternoon of December 22, situ Yunbing attended the pre match press conference at Melwood training base.

The press hall is packed with people. Reporters from major media or tabloids on Fleet Street come here to listen to what situ Yunbing will say before the game.

Maybe they will hear about situ Yunbing's declaration of war on klopp again.

Situ Yunbing will not appear in front of the media as a vulnerable person, especially in the current situation.

When the on-site reporter asked situ Yunbing how he thought that Liverpool were 6 points behind Manchester City and 2 points behind Arsenal in the championship, situ Yunbing smiled and said: "if we only look at our own achievements, 15 wins and 1 draw in 16 league matches, we should be satisfied, not dissatisfied!

Because no coach will ask the team in the face of such achievements: why is there a draw?!

But it's different from the past, or I think it's never happened before!

When we look around to see what other teams are doing, we find that one team has 17 wins and 1 draw in 18 league matches, and another team has 16 wins in 18 league matches!

The question is, are we not doing well enough?

Obviously not!

The real problem is that it's not time for us to compete!

But I will admit that Liverpool are in a slightly passive position now. Some people will say that Liverpool play two games less, but less games does not mean we can win. Even if we win the two make-up games, we just draw the points of Manchester City. This is where we are passive! "
