Rodgers ran his hand over his face and shouted at the players who were close to him: "Wrap him up, don't let him break through easily!" ”

De Bruyne's set-piece put Van Dijk on the back of the net and headed wide of the post for City to finish again.

Wen Sheng is also constantly greeting his players, in fact, he has been coaching for so long, Wen Sheng's mentality has been very different from the previous every time he plays, the longer he coaches, the more he knows the importance of calm, so now on the court, no matter what type of game it is, it is rare to be able to excite him, he loves to keep directing the players on the sidelines to do this and that, but this habit can not be changed, he will definitely say and shout when he sees something that does not meet his heart, and the players can listen to how much, then it has to be fate.

Perhaps in order to return the color of Manchester City's offensive just now, in the 16th minute, Liverpool's positional battle attacked the front, Gerrard was bold, and while Dembele and Barry had not been able to complete their positions, he made a heavy artillery attack more than 30 meters away.

Not to mention the danger of the shot, Hart was a bit up front and was almost knocked open by Gerrard's long-range shot.

The Manchester City fans exclaimed, and both Barry and Dembele felt a little guilty in their hearts, they thought that Gerrard could not choose to shoot, so it was not so timely to get in place.

"What are you going to eat, I don't know if he will shoot from a distance?!" Wen Sheng scolded at the court.

Wen Sheng's voice is relatively loud, everyone heard it this time, no one will have an opinion, they already know Wen Sheng's habits very well, it's just that things are not about people, whoever wants to have a problem will pay attention next time!

Barry and Dembele also exchanged two sentences with each other to communicate how to do a good joint defense.

Suarez is also super capable, he is now competing with Dzeko and Aguero for the top scorer for the golden boot, but today can only blame Liverpool for a lot of balls that are difficult to find under his feet, Kompany is a strict defense against him, never leaving his side, even if he retreats to the periphery, unless he retreats too deep, unless he goes to the side, Suarez can catch the side when counterattacking, but it is difficult to attack in positional warfare, Liverpool needs a forward arrow.

Suarez also tried to pass once, and that was in the eighth minute, when he forced a breakthrough, but it was difficult for Kompany, who defended him, and even if he was out of half of his position, Suarez was cleared by Kompany from the side and back.

In the 21st minute, Manchester City launched an offensive battle again, and it was also Douglas. Costa, the second time he forcibly eats Glenn. Johnson, two touchlines in a row made Johnson unable to find the north, Johnson was forced to helpless, had to pull down Costa who was about to enter the penalty area from behind, Manchester City got a set-piece opportunity.

The position of the set-piece is not good, the shot is very reluctant, and De Bruyne has no choice, the set-piece he took was very thief, he did not send a high ball past, but bypassed the human wall, a half-high cross, the Liverpool players did not expect De Bruyne to take the penalty like this, it looked like he was going to shoot.

Before he could come back to his senses, Dzeko started to stretch out his foot in the middle and send the ball directly into the gate guarded by Reina!

Liverpool players complained to the referee Webber about Manchester City's offside, which is of course nonsense, the linesman did not raise the flag, although Webber was facing the Liverpool door, but he was basically sure that the goal was not offside, so he whistled and pointed to the center circle at the first time.

"Oh also!" Jock jumped up in the stands and hugged Linton, "We scored!" We're ahead! ”

Manchester City fans are also extremely happy, many fans still remember the embarrassing record of Manchester City at home in those years, and now if they can win this game, Manchester City will usher in three consecutive home wins against Liverpool, the hegemony of English football, especially from Liverpool, is led by their own team under their noses, how can it not be exciting?!

After Dzeko scored, he didn't run to the corner to celebrate, but ran to De Bruyne with two fingers!

"Tintin, that's fucking amazing! Wonderful pass! Dzeko hugged De Bruyne and yelled loudly in De Bruyne's ear.

He does have to thank Kevin De Bruyne, who has been the team's assists leader this season, and has provided 15 assists for all fronts so far, which is not a small number, and Dzeko and Sergio Aguero have all benefited from his help.

Rodgers shook his head depressedly, he really didn't expect De Bruyne to be so ghostly, and actually punished the set-piece like this, of course, this is also De Bruyne's skill and boldness, and other players may not be able to pass this pass with a good power route.

Gerrard clapped his hands vigorously, comforting his teammates and encouraging everyone not to be discouraged, there was still a lot of time left in this game.

The game restarted, Wen Sheng did not let the players change their tactics, this game is very unsuitable for health, and Rodgers also did not make major adjustments to his team's tactics, but he deliberately instructed Johnson and Downing on the right side to wrap up Costa in time, and don't let the little Wang Ba from Brazil hit the team's hinterland like a stake.

But Johnson is a little weak today, in the 23rd minute, Costa made a comeback, and Johnson was singled out, Johnson did not dare to stretch his feet, the last goal lost had a lot to do with him, Webber not only gave the set-piece, the same Johnson already had a yellow card, the third time facing the flexible Costa, he hesitated, and let Costa pass, an outside instep cross, not pointing to the middle, but outside the penalty area, De Bruyne ran to the middle to respond, non-stop volley, Costa's pass was difficult to receive, De Bruyne didn't stop the ball, resulting in a shot with power but a lack of precision.

Rodgers was in a hurry on the sidelines, and he could see that Johnson was really bad for Costa.

You must know that Johnson's speed is not slow, but he can only eat under Costa's instant start.

The idea of replacing Johnson was swirling in Rogers' mind, and maybe it would be better if he was replaced by Klein!

It's not a good time to make a substitution, Rodgers is a manager without a title after all, and Liverpool is already insulated from the title, which makes it difficult to guarantee his authority in the team, and it's really too early to replace Johnson.

Determined not to make substitutions, Rodgers reminded to watch the next game with fear, but fortunately Lucas was smart and actively helped Johnson to help defend, which limited the path of Costa to receive the ball, causing Manchester City to have to change the main direction of attack to De Bruyne's side.

De Bruyne is also not easy to deal with, Manchester City's formation is right-leaning, De Bruyne relies more on passing to create a threat to Liverpool, Dzeko and Aguero are very lively, intermittently coming out to answer alone, De Bruyne's side is also playing well, and several times have brought trouble to the Liverpool penalty area.
