The battle between Liverpool and Manchester City is attracting attention worldwide!

This is definitely a rare battle between super strong teams in contemporary European football!

Even though Manchester City suffered a Waterloo last season, the biggest gimmick is that the lineup's strength does not decline but rises in the new season!

The gods fight!

On the weekend, Situ Yunbing led a team to visit the Etihad Stadium. The football atmosphere in Manchester was extremely frenzy. When Situ Yunbing walked into the stadium, he was attracted by the deafening cheers.

The photojournalist on the sidelines looked forward to it and finally took the scene of Situ Yunbing and Guardiola greetings on the sidelines as he wished.

After Situ Yunbing shook hands with Guardiola, he simply greeted each other, showing his demeanor and etiquette, and there was no other communication.

The two of them came to the coach's command area to stand in a stand-alone manner, waiting for the start of the game.

Guardiola's expression was not good at ancient Jing. He did not hold a grudge against Situ Yunbing's sudden attack on him last season. To be honest, Situ Yunbing made him realize the cruelty of the Premier League competition earlier and more deeply!

Especially as the ruler who defends his throne, if Guardiola was the one who might not be as aggressive as Situ Yunbing, he might not be as aggressive as Situ Yunbing, but he would never be polite to his competitors.

After a summer rest, Manchester City re-launched, and there was no trouble at the start of the new season, but meeting Liverpool so early was not what Guardiola expected. They were better than Arsenal, at least at home!

Situ Yunbing knew that Manchester City's second rise in the Premier League had become a climate, and failure was a more exciting and encouraging agent. All aspiring giants basically possess the qualities of being shameless and brave, and Manchester City is no exception, especially for the perfectionist Guardiola!

The more he fell last season, how strong the rebound he broke out this season will be!

Situ Yunbing couldn't help but feel extremely excited, which was completely different from his feeling of calm when facing Manchester United in the European Super Cup.

Because Guardiola's team is full of too many unknowns in their performance!

The two teams started the ball with the caddies in hand, and cheers burst out from the Etihad Stadium!

"Good afternoon, everyone, everyone, welcome to watch the focus battle in the 4th round of the 2017-2018 Premier League season!

Blue Moon Manchester City faces defending champions Reds Liverpool at home!

Both teams have won three consecutive victories in the first three league games of the season. I wonder who can continue to maintain a consecutive victories after this round!

Manchester City is the team with the most obvious improvement in summer preparation among Premier League teams. They enriched the defense line, while Liverpool only replaced personnel on the front line. Vardy left the team and Griezmann arrived.

Last season, Chelsea focused on the league and was able to compete with Liverpool in the final moments, and Manchester City will definitely devote themselves to the league this season. Therefore, Manchester City ranked second among all teams in terms of popularity in winning the championship this season. The first place is of course the Reds Liverpool, which has won five consecutive Premier League titles!

Can Manchester City beat Liverpool, the top favorite at home?

If they can do it, then there is no doubt that Manchester City will be more favored by the outside world, which will greatly stimulate their confidence and fighting spirit!

Let's take a look at the starting lineup of both sides.

Manchester City started 4141 at home.

Goalkeeper: Ederson.

Defenders: Walker, Stones, Otamendi, Mendy.

Midfielders: Danilo, De Bruyne, Fernandinho, Silva, Aguero.

Forward: Jesus.

Liverpool started 433 away.

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Arnold, Van Dijk, Coolibali, Guerrero.

Midfielder: Casemiro, Eriksen, Kante.

Forwards: Mbappe, Lewandowski, Gareth Bale.

It is worth mentioning that Robertson has returned from injury, but to be safe, Situ Yunbing just arranged him on the bench today.

The game begins soon, let us look forward to the performance of the two teams in this game together!”

Situ Yunbing had a noticeable look of excitement in his bright eyes, and he couldn't wait to hope that the game would start soon.

Guardiola was serious, but she was a little nervous while looking serious.

This is a contest to test Manchester City's summer preparation results in his eyes!

With the referee's whistle, the noisy and restless Etihad Stadium ushered in the peak battle of the Premier League this season!

Liverpool, who was away, took the lead in kicking off. After Lewandowski dialed the ball, Gareth Bale knocked the ball back, and Manchester City players immediately stepped forward to counterattack. At the same time, the midfielder also began to stand and block the offensive formation that cut off Liverpool.

After Liverpool's continuous rapid passes and adjustments in the middle and backcourt, Arnold kicked over the top and made a straight pass on the wing in front of the center line.

Mbappe quickly turned around next to Mendy and successfully offside, taking off before the football was about to fly out of the baseline and padding the ball towards the middle of the penalty area.

Lewandowski followed up with a slanted mid-slant run and grabbed Otamendi's position, and directly hit the ball and headed the ball!

The football flew to the far corner of the goal, and Ederson was calm and moved, and then he jumped and picked the ball out of the air.

"Liverpool completed its first attack less than one minute of the game. Mbappe made an extreme cross, and Lewandowski actually received the ball and completed the header!

Manchester City fans should feel the pressure, and the same is true for Manchester City players on the court!”

Ederson kicked off quickly, Manchester City launched a fast attack from the right, Danilo received a pass from the pass from Wacker in a quick forward, and then cooperated with De Bruyne in the middle to hit the wall. Even though Kanter blocked De Bruyne at the first time, he was still shot by the opponent.

Manchester City showed excellent competitive state!

Danilo, who continued to step forward, passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area under Guerrero's pressure to catch up quickly, and passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area to the right.

Jesus quickly ran and rushed forward to the front right. Although he was swinging past Kulibali, his kicking position was not very good, but he still forced his kicking shot!

The football flew straight to the near corner of the goal, and Ter Stegen also moved quickly and confiscated the ball!

"Wow! Manchester City also completed its first attack after the opening game. Jesus' shot failed to test Liverpool goalkeeper Ter Stegen!

Will Liverpool take control of the situation?

No!

They launched a fast attack immediately!”

Eriksen met Casemiro in the middle circle and then made a pass to Kante. The latter made a diagonal pass on the ground and the ball rolled to the left of the frontcourt. When Gareth Bale took the ball and wanted to force the breakthrough of Waller, Wall used his physical confrontation to block Gareth Bale from the sideline.

The referee blew a whistle to indicate that Wolcker was fouled.

Manchester City fans immediately booed to protest against the referee!

Situ Yunbing now understands Guardiola's idea of ​​signing in summer.

He spent 100 million pounds to introduce Walker and Mendy. The two full-backs have similar characteristics. In fact, their technical skills are not very delicate and their speed is acceptable. However, they are definitely not the best among offensive full-backs. They are tall and powerful, and have absolute frontal defensive interception and confrontation capabilities!

Even if such a full-back is broken through by the opponent, he can always use his physical advantage to foul and delay the opponent's attack!

It is too difficult to introduce an offensive full-back who can attack and defend in this era!

Top full-backs are all priceless and have been "out of stock" in the transfer market for a long time!

Guardiola can only change his mind to strengthen the full-back position.

Instead of using full-backs whose offense is not sharp enough and whose defense is worrying, it is better to honestly lay a solid foundation for defense first!

As for offensive issues, it actually won't make him feel a headache.

After all, if you want to attack the organizational creativity, there are de Bruyne and Silva, and if you want to make a single breakthrough, there are Sterling and Mahrez.

But today facing Liverpool, Sterling was unable to play due to injury.

After strengthening the defense line in this way, Manchester City has indeed obtained a layer of guarantee when dealing with their opponents' counterattacks on the wing, especially in the Premier League, which focuses on physical confrontation!

Liverpool took a free kick from the frontcourt, Guerrero inserted and turned into the inward cutting track. He stopped and rushed past De Bruyne. Faced with Fernandinho's interception, Guerrero pivoted the ball with his left foot and swung past the opponent. When Fernandinho turned around and was about to pursue, Guerrero directly passed the ball behind the penalty area!

Guerrero's series of operations made Situ Yunbing stunned on the sidelines, and he did it in one go!

The football that was hanging into the right rib of the penalty area was directly volleyed by Mbappe in a pinched state and hit Manchester City's goal!

But due to Mendy's interference, his shot did not take the main part, and the football bounced on the ground and was hugged by Ederson.

call!

All the fans were amazed.

Ederson threw the ball with his hand and just threw it out to find Silva who was running. As a result, Silva pulled the ball after stopping the ball and changed direction and dodged the counter-robbery from Eriksen, but was intercepted by Casemiro who rushed up towards him!

Guardiola looked nervous on the sidelines. It was a taboo to concede the ball in the backcourt!

After intercepting the ball, Casemiro decisively passed the ball diagonally to the right.

After following up, Arnold passed the ball diagonally in the middle. Eriksen made a shot and pushed the ball too far to the left in front of the penalty area.

Gareth Bale quickly cut in and shot with a fury shot!

Football flies straight to the far corner of the goal!

Ederson's full save this time was obviously slow to wait!

When he was already a little desperate, he looked back and saw the football flying into the stands while rubbing the outside of the right goal post. He felt relieved, but still felt scared!

Manchester City fans looked at each other and looked at the people around them, and everyone felt familiar.

Frightened!

"The pace is too fast! After Silva was intercepted, Liverpool quickly launched a fast attack in the frontcourt. In a blink of an eye, the ball reached Gareth Bale's running line, and the difference between his shot and goal was slight!

If the ball is slightly towards the goal, it will be an absolute blind spot!

Manchester City escaped. Although we can understand that Manchester City hopes to seize the opportunity to play a threatening fast break, we must pay attention to the success rate!
Chapter completed!
