The front three from left to right Salah, Jimenez and Mbappe
To be honest, Liverpool's starting lineup exceeded many people's expectations.
After all, Liverpool asked Milner to play left back, which is a bit surprising. There is also Alberto Moreno on the bench. Not a single full-time left back is allowed to play, but Milner comes up. What's the reason?
Has Klopp lost confidence in Moreno?
If Milner plays as left back, he may become the focus of Crystal Palace's attention.
Along the way, Crystal Palace has the very fast young man Mbappe. Can Milner withstand it?
Also, they did not use Firmino and Sturridge in the starting lineup at the center position, but sat on the bench.
The Chelsea fans in front of the TV were dumbfounded!
Klopp, what are you doing? Are you trying to sell the ball?
They really can't understand Klopp's employment.
Even the commentators in the commentary box were very surprised and did not expect. Is Klopp selling the ball, or is he showing weakness to the enemy and leaving a backup plan?
But if that's the case, Origi shouldn't be starting. Firmino or Sturridge can play either one of them. What are you doing in this game?
Chelsea fans hate Klopp so much. They think Klopp is secretly helping Tong Yi, otherwise he would not have such a bad starting lineup.
Chelsea fans are very angry and are ready to complain to Liverpool for match-fixing.
When Conte saw such a starting list in front of the TV, he was also very shocked and did not expect it.
What is Klopp going to do here?
Anyway, he doesn’t believe that Klopp will give up this game and let Crystal Palace win. After all, Liverpool has not yet guaranteed qualifications for the Champions League. Even if Klopp is willing to give up the ball, Liverpool fans
, Liverpool’s top management would not be willing either.
Therefore, Liverpool will definitely have a backup plan in this game.
Conte is waiting for Klopp's backup move.
Tong Yi was a little stunned when he saw Liverpool's starting lineup. This lineup is indeed a bit unexpected, but it is still acceptable. He reminded the Crystal Palace players not to underestimate Liverpool, as Liverpool's lineup is still very strong.
certainly,
Tong Yi also hopes that the Crystal Palace players will not carry baggage, relax and play seriously. They have a chance to defeat Liverpool in this game.
In terms of strength, Crystal Palace is stronger than Liverpool.
Crystal Palace must win this game!
Then, at this moment, Coutinho on the wing of Liverpool unexpectedly broke through with the ball and then quickly passed the football to Origi who was diagonally forward.
The shot exploded from an angle, and the football roared out, grazing the post and flying out of the baseline.
Liverpool fans feel it is a pity!
However, they immediately gave Origi applause. Origi played the ball well. It seems that Klopp made some sense in starting Origi in this game. This guy has been in good form recently.
Liverpool fans also have more confidence in Origi.
After seeing this, Chelsea fans also slightly recognized Origi.
But some Chelsea fans are thinking, if it had been Sturridge or Firmino, this goal would have been scored, right?
It's a pity, if one of these two people started this game, maybe Liverpool would have taken the lead at home.
Oh, what a pity, Klopp made a big mistake.
However, the Liverpool fans at the scene were very satisfied and kept applauding, reminding the Liverpool players that they should continue to work hard and strive to score goals as soon as possible. Liverpool needs goals very much, and even more needs to win.
Bang bang bang!
Klopp was also very satisfied and kept applauding, motivating the Crystal Palace players.
Three minutes later, Liverpool made a comeback. They made a very subtle cooperation in the middle of the midfield, and their continuous diagonal passes penetrated the Crystal Palace defense. Mane rushed up and shot directly with his legs, and the football was slightly higher.
The crossbar flew out of the bottom line.
At the beginning of this game, Liverpool, playing at home, had an absolute advantage.
The Liverpool fans at the scene were very excited and happy. They cheered one after another and taunted the Crystal Palace people crazily. The Liverpool people claimed that your Crystal Palace is like this? Is it worthy to be compared with our Liverpool?
We, Liverpool, must win this game!
Liverpudlians are full of confidence!
But Klopp on the sidelines frowned slightly. He couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Tong Yi on the sidelines.
No, why is this team on the opposite side playing worse than Crystal Palace before?
Could it be that this guy Tong Yi has some conspiracy?
Klopp carefully looked at Crystal Palace's tactics, but at this time, Liverpool's attack came again. The football came directly to the front of the penalty area, which was very dangerous. However, Origi, who received the ball, took the ball with his back.
He couldn't threaten the goal at all.
Origi tried to turn around, but failed.
Seeing the feet under my feet
The ball was about to be intercepted. Origi immediately pushed the football out and pushed it back to Can.
But before Zhan could catch the ball, the football was intercepted by Kanter who rushed up.
Klopp was shocked on the sidelines and immediately shouted into the stadium, "The return pass must be steady. What are you passing?"
Before the game, he emphasized many times that he must be careful and precise when passing the ball in this position and not give Crystal Palace a chance to steal. But at this time, he still made such a mistake, and Klopp was naturally very angry.
They clearly know that Casemiro and Kante's defensive ability is very good, but they still dare to play like this. This is simply asking for death. Klopp is really angry, and he said that Origi is in good condition and wants you to start.
, look what you are playing?
The Liverpool fans at the scene also felt nervous and dangerous.
Crystal Palace’s counterattack is coming!
Crystal Palace's counterattack ability is very good. Now Crystal Palace rushed forward, and Liverpool fans were really worried. They were afraid that their team's defense could not stop Crystal Palace.
Liverpool fans immediately shouted loudly to cheer on their team's defensive players.
Boom! .??.
Kanter directly passed the football to the frontcourt with a long pass, and the football accurately flew to the head of Jimenez who rushed out to receive the ball.
Kanter's current long passes are much more accurate than before, and this is all due to his progress.
Jimenez, who rushed out, won the ball and shook his head directly, passing the football to Mbappe who was advancing forward!
Mbappe didn't stop the ball at all. Facing Milner who saved it, he directly moved the ball and quickly moved the football to the other side.
Salah rushed up quickly, easily stopped the football in Liverpool's penalty area, and then without adjusting, directly volleyed with his leg.
The football roared out and flew straight towards the top corner of the near post.
The ball was so fast that the Liverpool fans were frightened.
Danger!
With a bang, Mendy flew sideways and slapped the football out of the bottom line with one palm, saving Liverpool.
The fans of Chelsea and Liverpool breathed a sigh of relief. It was really too suspenseful and they almost lost the ball.
At this time, Chelsea fans all felt that there was something wrong with Liverpool's starting lineup. If they continued to play like this, Liverpool would definitely lose. The loss felt that it was Klopp's responsibility. Klopp really
That's rubbish, he's selling the ball, damn Klopp!
Chelsea people really hate Klopp!
Corner kick, Crystal Palace got a corner kick opportunity.
Jimenez immediately walked into Liverpool's penalty area with high spirits and looked for opportunities in the penalty area. In the last game, Ignacio scored a hat trick, which deeply stimulated him. He will also perform well today.
, prove yourself with your actual actions!
He can't be worse than Ignacio. Facing Liverpool today, Jimenez will also score.
Jimenni
Si immediately reached out and pointed to the sky. His obvious intention was to let his teammates pass the football to his head.
The players of Liverpool are all tight. Jimenez is in hot form recently. He is scoring goals one after another and is simply a scoring machine for Crystal Palace. Moreover, Jimenez has a strong ability to work at heights. This corner kick is simply tailor-made for Jimenez.
Menez created it, so Liverpool fans are naturally very worried.
Even Chelsea fans are very worried. They are really afraid of Jimenez scoring.
When Chelsea and Crystal Palace played against each other, they suffered losses from Jimenez. They hoped that the Liverpool people could defend Jimenez and not give Jimenez a chance!
Klopp also stood up on the sidelines. When he came to the sidelines, his eyes were fixed on the court. He was a little worried.
Cancelo in the corner saw Jimenez's action. He nodded slightly, then slowly walked back, preparing to kick off.
Liverpool's players all saw Cancelo's actions, so they stepped up their defense against Van Dijk and Jimenez, not giving these two any chances.
beep!
At this moment, the referee Atkinson directly blew the whistle to serve.
Cancelo, who was in the corner kick area, glanced at Liverpool's penalty area, then quickly took a run-up, quickly came to the football, and hit the football hard with one kick, directly driving the football into Liverpool's penalty area. The football is here
A wonderful arc was drawn in the air, spinning rapidly to the back of the penalty area!
Van Dijk and Jimenez rushed to the front point immediately. They took away all the Liverpool defenders, so that the back point of Liverpool's penalty area was very empty at this time. All the Liverpool fans at the scene watched.
I'm in despair here and my face is pale!
Their defense really focused too much on Jimenez and Van Dijk. The main defensive force was taken away by these two people, and there was almost no one to defend the back point - dangerous!
Mendy in front of the goal immediately moved quickly and rushed towards the back post to intercept the opponent's shot.
Yes, at this moment, Mbappe, who was in the back of the penalty area, jumped up high and smashed his head hard at the football that was flying towards him.
Rudiger attacked from the middle and delayed Liverpool's defense, so the back point seemed so open.
Opportunity, this is definitely the best opportunity for Crystal Palace in this game!
Seeing this, all the Crystal Palace fans jumped up excitedly. This goal will undoubtedly be scored!
With a bang, Mbappe, who was jumping high in the air, hit the football hard with his head. The football immediately flew towards the upper corner of the back post like a shell!
The ball speed is very fast, like lightning!
Mendy, who was in front of the goal, jumped into the air immediately and jumped out, stretching his arms as straight as possible, but still did not touch the football. The football shot quickly into the upper corner of the back post of the Liverpool goal!
One to zero, Crystal Palace, playing away from home, broke the deadlock and took the lead!
The Chelsea fans in front of the TV felt as if they were mourning for their heirs, and their hearts were extremely heavy!
