Chapter 1129

Gao Xiaodong's villa is very big, with more than ten rooms. Two bodyguards are the kind of people who don't eat and don't show up. Their living doesn't have any impact on Gao Xiaodong. His life is still going on step by step as before.

On August 13, the 11-12 Premier League season, which attracted great attention, finally began.

The opening game is between Liverpool and Sunderland.

As the former overlord of English football, Liverpool has fallen to the extreme in recent years. In addition to winning a Champions League in the 2007 Universiade, they even failed to win a Premier League Championship. As a result, they were overtaken by their arch rival Manchester United in the total number of titles.

There are many reasons for Liverpool's continued downturn in the league, but the root cause is lack of money.

Dalglish, who took over as manager in the middle of last season, met a good boss. This summer, Dalglish has become the biggest net investment for Liverpool. Only Henderson, Adam and downing spent 49 million, as well as free Roman goalkeeper Doni and Suarez and Carroll, who bought 57.8 million at the beginning of the year. This season, Liverpool's lineup is unprecedented, and there is no European team In the Champions League, the media think they have the possibility to challenge the defending champion Manchester United.

The first game of the new season is the opening game. The powerful Liverpool face Sunderland, who ranked tenth last season. Naturally, coach Dalglish has no choice but to win.

In addition, Sunderland, the black cat, smashed pounds this summer to become the most eye-catching team outside the top five. They beat the giants Liverpool and Arsenal by 12 million yuan to bring in Wickham, packed up Manchester United veteran O'Shea and brown, and took over demoted Birmingham midfielders Gardner and Larson, as well as imohamadi and Chi Dongyuan Sunderland have paid 28.35 million pounds before the summer transfer is over.

Now the Sunderland coach Bruce, as well as captain O'Shea, brown, Campbell, Barnsley and Richardson have played for Manchester United. Although Anton Ferdinand has not played for Manchester United, he is Rio Ferdinand's younger brother. It can be said that this Sunderland is really the "Manchester United second team".

Manchester United and Liverpool are rivals for a century. Even if this is not the opening match, Sunderland, who has many Manchester United players, will not let Liverpool pass easily.

The opening match held in Liverpool was very fierce from the beginning. Less than five minutes after the start of the match, the Sunderland defender made a mistake when he was forced by the front court of Liverpool, and the ball hit Suarez in the face. Suarez took the opportunity to lead the ball into the penalty area, forming a chance to go to the meeting alone.

Sunderland defender Richardson had no choice but to kick Suarez from behind and was given a penalty by the referee.

Suarez personally took the penalty, but his penalty went straight to the stands, wasting a great chance to score.

Liverpool then went on to attack Sunderland and soon got a chance to score again.

In the 12th minute, the right side of the front court of Liverpool got a free kick. Charlie Adam made a high-quality pass to the front point. Suarez suddenly jumped into the front point and headed the ball to the near corner of the goal.

1: : 0

Suarez scored the Premier League's first goal of the season. The most valuable player of the Copa America returned to the team soon, and less than a week's training with his teammates opened the door to victory for the team.

Then Sunderland gradually launched an attack on Liverpool, and by emerhardy, Larson, cattermore and others to get a shot in a row.

Sunderland's attack was defused one by one by Liverpool's goal, and Liverpool winger downing shot a long-distance shot on Sunderland's crossbar after several players.

Downing's shot was one of the best chances for both sides in the first half, and then Sunderland stepped up their defense and the two sides entered a stalemate.

Sunderland took the lead in making tactical adjustments in the second half, attacking Liverpool.

In the second half, Liverpool wanted to score a more decisive victory and then play with Manchester United's running dog.

However, in the 57th minute of the game, Sunderland hit the ball from the right side, and Larson volleyed the ball into the top right corner of the goal without any defense. Larson's world wave drew the score 1-1.

Then Liverpool launched a wave like attack on Sunderland in the roar of Anfield fans. The attack wave after wave. Sunderland is like a canoe in the wind and rain, which may capsize at any time.

Maybe Sunderland was too lucky, maybe Liverpool was too impatient. The players of Liverpool bombed wildly in more than 30 minutes after Sunderland scored, shot more than 10 goals, but didn't score a goal, and were finally tied 1-1 by Sunderland at home.

There was a big surprise in the opening game of Liverpool, and the surprise seemed to be contagious. Then two big teams, Chelsea and Arsenal, were drawn by the weak teams one after another and didn't even score a goal.

There were so many unexpected results in Saturday's game, which brought great pressure to Manchester United and city on Sunday.

Originally, Manchester United's away game against West Bromwich was regarded as a game without suspense by the media and fans, but after Saturday's game, the wind direction changed immediately. The fans and the media cautioned the fans to prevent a draw, and the gambling company also adjusted Manchester United's winning odds.The key factor restricting Manchester United to win is goalkeeper de gea.

A good goalkeeper is equivalent to half a team. If there is a problem with the goalkeeper, even if there is Gao Xiaodong who is so efficient, he can't fill the hole.

From the performance of the community shield cup, de GEA can be said to be mixed. In the first half, he was rubbish, and the two goals he lost were all related to de gea. In the second half, de GEA was superb and helped Manchester United win the community shield cup for the 20th time.

But for the future, the most important thing is not magic, but stability. Today's super God, tomorrow's super ghost, such a goalkeeper is unable to let teammates and fans rest assured.

In addition to Manchester United's own problems, his captain West Bromwich is not without combat effectiveness.

West Brom is an old team founded in 1878, which has been playing the role of elevator in recent years. The strength of West Brom is outstanding in the championship, but it is difficult to survive in the Premier League. However, last season, with the end of Di Matteo, coach Hodgson took office, West Brom's performance has improved significantly, and finally can complete the relegation task by 11 under various disadvantages.

On the first match with Manchester United, West Brom coach Hodgson said it was David's challenge to Goliath. However, Hodgson believed that since Sunderland, Stoke City and Newcastle can draw against Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal, West Brom has a chance to draw or even defeat Manchester United.

Manchester United also attach great importance to the first game of the new season. Ferguson said directly at the news conference that although Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal were all drawn by weak teams, Manchester United will not, because Manchester United is the Premier League champion. In the first round, Manchester United will win West Brom and make a good start for the new season.
