"Hello, fans and friends! This is Sky Sports, I am Tim, Tim Laursen!" Sky Sports' live broadcast was also connected to the scene, "I am now at the Old Trafford Stadium. Today I
"And Gary will bring you the highlight of this round of the Premier League, where the league leader Manchester United will face the second-placed Liverpool team at their home court."
"Hello everyone, I'm Gary Lineker!" Gary Lineker said, "I think everyone has been looking forward to this game for a long time, because the result of this game may affect the Premier League this season.
It must be a wonderful game for the final winner."
"Manchester United is currently ranked first in the league, but they do not lead Liverpool by many points, and Liverpool still have one game less. If Manchester United loses this game, then Manchester United's previous efforts may be in vain.
, Manchester United cannot afford to lose this game." Tim Laursen said.
"Liverpool is now ranked second in the league. If they still want to win the league championship, they must win this game." Sky Sports commentator Gary Lineker said.
"This must be a close and exciting contest. This will definitely become a classic game that will still be talked about by people many years later." Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen said forward, "
Okay, the players from both sides have already appeared, and the game is about to start. Let me first introduce to you the starting lineups of both sides today."
"First of all, let me introduce to you the starting situation of the home team Manchester United today." Tim Laursen said looking at the information in his hand, which he just got, "Sir Alex sent a four-year-old
In a 4-1-1 formation, the Dutchman Edwin van der Sar is the goalkeeper."
"In the back four position, it is Evra, Vidic, Ferdinand and Rafael." Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen said.
"In the midfield four, there are Giggs, Carrick, Anderson and Cristiano Ronaldo." Tim Laursen read, "Scholes did not appear in the starting lineup today.
This is beyond everyone’s expectations. It seems that Manchester United is focusing on the two wings.”
On the sidelines, when Liverpool's head coach Rafael Benitez saw the Manchester United team, he sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, Manchester United is determined to play wide."
"The one in front of the midfield four is Wayne Rooney, and the one on the front line is Berbatov, the only player Manchester United introduced last summer. Well, this is the starting lineup of Manchester United."
M. Laursen said.
"It's not a big surprise that Manchester United has such a lineup. Everyone expected it before the game." Sky Sports commentator Gary Lineker said, "Okay, next, I will introduce it to you.
Today’s visiting team Liverpool’s starting lineup.”
"Liverpool's formation is very conventional. It's still a four-two-three-one configuration." Gary Lineker looked at the information in his hand and said, "The goalkeeper is Reina."
"In the back four it's Arbeloa, Skrtel, Daniel Agger and Joel Luca," said Gary Lineker.
"In the double defensive midfield position are Xavi Alonso and Mascherano. The Argentinian once again appeared in Liverpool's starting lineup. This should be beyond everyone's expectations." Gary Lay
Inker was a little surprised. After all, Mascherano had not appeared in Liverpool's starting lineup for a long time.
It is said that at this time, Mascherano was making a big fuss and he was about to transfer. There were also rumors that the Spanish team Barcelona was interested in the Argentine midfielder. The two parties had had private contact and the transfer was imminent.
ah.
"Perhaps the Argentinian's complaints had an effect. Today's starting lineup is." Gary Lineker sighed, "Well, the three people on the forward line are Gerrard, Chris and Arshavin, but it's strange.
What's interesting is that Arshavin and Gerrard switched sides today. Does Gerrard have to focus on Cristiano Ronaldo?"
"The man on the front line is still Spanish striker Fernando Torres." Sky Sports commentator Gary Lineker said.
"The players from both sides are now in their positions on the court, and the game is about to start." Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen said.
Beep! Referee Chris Webber blows the whistle, and the home game between Manchester United and Liverpool officially begins.
The first team to kick off was the home team Manchester United. The football rolled out from Carrick's feet and rolled to Anderson's feet. Anderson did not take the ball too much and directly sent the football to the wing. The football rolled directly to the wing.
At the feet of Cristiano Ronaldo.
As soon as the Portuguese star took hold of the football, Liverpool captain Gerrard pressed on to him, clinging tightly to Cristiano Ronaldo.
"Oh, it seems that Gary's guess is good. Gerrard went after Ronaldo today, and the two got into a fight just after the game started." Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen exclaimed.
The Manchester United fans at the scene immediately shouted: "Cristiano, pass him! Pass him!"
The Liverpool fans shouted crazily: "Stephen kill him, kill that damn Portuguese boy."
A strong force came towards him from behind. Cristiano Ronaldo frowned slightly, stepped on the football and pulled it inward, ready to turn around. Gerrard's upper body immediately exerted force to push Cristiano Ronaldo forward, as if
To overthrow the Portuguese.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who was pulling the ball and turned around, swayed and seemed about to fall down. Gerrard suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. However, at this moment, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was swaying, suddenly gently touched the football with his feet.
He pushed forward, then Cristiano Ronaldo stretched out his hand to pull Gerrard, and then rushed towards the football that rolled forward.
Cristiano Ronaldo actually used Gerrard's body to maintain his balance, which surprised the Liverpool fans at the scene. Cristiano Ronaldo is such a thief.
Gerrard was also shocked when he was breached. He didn't expect that Cristiano Ronaldo would make such a move. This was really damaging.
After being broken through by Cristiano Ronaldo, Gerrard felt anxious and immediately turned around, thinking about Cristiano Ronaldo. However, the Portuguese was very fast and he couldn't catch up at all, but Gerrard still did not stop.
He was still chasing after them, because they knew that Aveiroa was still watching ahead, and his pursuit would definitely not be in vain.
After passing Gerrard, Cristiano Ronaldo saw Arbeloa in front of him. Cristiano Ronaldo did not rush directly to Arbeloa, but suddenly moved the football towards the center and walked towards the center.
go.
Mascherano immediately pounced on him. His task today was more defensive than offensive. In fact, since the arrival of Xavi Alonso and Qiu Ze, Mascherano has rarely had the opportunity to organize with the ball.
When it comes to offense, more often than not, he is on defense.
Seeing Mascherano rushing forward, Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled the ball at high speed and pretended to dribble the ball from the left side of the Argentinian's body. In fact, it was a feint shot, and then he dunked the football to the other side, passing from Mascherano.
The other side of the body breaks through.
Cristiano Ronaldo's breakthrough was very sharp, which made the Manchester United fans at the scene excited. They cheered loudly: "Ronaldo, go! Crush the damn Liverpool! Go forward, we need to score!"
The faces of the Liverpool fans were full of worry. They were rushed to pieces by the Manchester United players as soon as they started. It was really difficult to talk about this game.
After breaking through Mascherano, Cristiano Ronaldo saw Berbatov who was advancing and raised his hand to ask. At this time, Berbatov's position was actually very good. If Cristiano Ronaldo could
If the football is passed well, this is definitely a good opportunity.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was dribbling the ball, turned a blind eye to the advancing Bulgarian. This guy saw all the Liverpool players being led into the penalty area by Berbatov. This guy immediately moved the football forward.
With a slight movement, he took a long shot directly from the front of the penalty area.
"A long shot!" Sky Sports commentator Tim Laursen also exclaimed in surprise. He did not expect that Cristiano Ronaldo would choose to take a long shot at this time.
In the opinion of Tim Laursen and Gary Lineker, Cristiano Ronaldo's handling of the ball was a bit reckless and unreasonable. He should have passed the ball to Berbatov who was advancing forward.
Because Berbatov is in a better position and poses a greater threat.
On the sidelines, Manchester United head coach Alex Ferguson actually thought the same way. He also believed that Cristiano Ronaldo should pass the football instead of shooting from long range. Alex Ferguson saw this
I sighed in my heart, Cristiano Ronaldo still believed in himself more.
Boom! There was a loud noise, and Cristiano Ronaldo hit the football with his kick. The football shot towards the Liverpool goal like a cannonball.
Liverpool's defensive players were very surprised. They all thought that Cristiano Ronaldo would give the football to Berbatov who was advancing forward immediately. Therefore, they collectively followed Berbatov, and no one
Rushing out to disrupt Cristiano Ronaldo.
Now the football flew quickly from outside the penalty area. Liverpool's defensive players were shocked. They jumped up one after another and used their bodies to block the football that flew in quickly. Their faces changed a little and turned white.
In front of the goal, Liverpool's goalkeeper Reina was not fully prepared for Cristiano Ronaldo's sudden long shot. Watching the football flying over, his face changed slightly, and then his body ejected and landed across the Liverpool goal.
forward.
Whoosh! The flying football shot forward like an arrow, whizzing past with a sound of breaking through the air, and shot straight towards Liverpool's goal.
Reina was shocked, flew out, and stretched out his hands straight to touch the football that was rushing like lightning. Unfortunately, his hands failed to touch the damn football, and the football flew from his hand like lightning.
His fingertips flew past and hit the goal behind him.
The goal was scored! Everyone in Liverpool was stunned. They really didn't expect that Manchester United would score a goal in their first attack, and it was such a goal.
