'It was a game that surprised us all, Sunderland played very well.

"It's already in stoppage time, it's still 1-1 and now Liverpool are on the attack, this may be their last chance to attack!"

At the beginning of the second half, the rain that had been slowing down suddenly became heavier, and now it is even more rainy.

If it weren't for the fact that the game was almost over, the referees would probably have stopped the game with the current rain.

Mane dribbled the ball in front, he dunked over Rodweil who came up to intercept, and then wanted to put the football directly into the penalty area, when he came out, the football was blocked by Van Aanholt who came up to make up for the defense, Mwila came up to clear, Milner jumped up and blocked the football back with his body, and the football fell directly to the unguarded area in front of the penalty area.

Brown is going to come up and clear the game.

I saw a man rushing in front of the football!

Facing the football is directly a volley!

Soccer soars!

Football tears through the rain curtain!

Over the heads of everyone in the box!

Spun around Sunderland's goalkeeper Mannone before hitting the net headlong and splashing water in all directions, which was so bright in the floodlights in the later goal replays.

Sunderland fans were already preparing to celebrate, they were second from bottom in the league and it would be a great 'win' to be able to hold a draw at home to the mighty Liverpool!

However, at the last moment, it can even be said that the whistle of the game will be blown just a dozen seconds, Liverpool actually scored!

Sunderland fans couldn't believe their eyes!

They even forgot to boo.

In the stands of the Stadium of Light, there were only frantic shouts and cheers from the visiting fans.

Inside the field, Jiang Chenxi was being pressed under his excited teammates, Liverpool's players were crazy, this was not a game against Manchester United or Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal like Mars hitting the earth, but, killing the opponent at the last moment, this situation, how can you not be ecstatic, even the joy of a 5-1 away win over Arsenal is not so strong at this moment!

The narrator's voice echoed on the TV: "Ninety-third minute! Liverpool! River! Great shot! One Foot World Wave! Pretty! 2：1！ Liverpool beat Sunderland in the last minute! They got a crucial victory! ”

"Jiang Chenxi! Jiang Chenxi! His last-minute stunner, Liverpool's last attack, and last-shot shot, Jiang Chenxi's world wave! It's a last-minute lore! Two to one! Liverpool beat Sunderland and they will also enjoy the honour of being top of the table on their own! ”

Almost at the same time as the whistle sounded for the goal to be effective, the referee also blew the whistle for the end of the game!

The Liverpool players on the bench rushed into the pitch with a roar, Klopp jumped three times in the drifting rain, and when he landed, his feet slipped and he sat directly on the ground. Bwach laughed out loud as he pulled it up.

……

In the end, with Salah's opening goal in the first half and Jiang Chenxi's last-minute stunner, Liverpool defeated Sunderland 2-1 away and won the 19th round of the Premier League!

Because the previous match between Manchester City and Leicester ended 0-0, Liverpool also began to enjoy the dividends of that draw after winning Sunderland, they led the Premier League table with 41 points, 2 points ahead of second-place Leicester City, 3 points ahead of third-place Arsenal, and 5 points ahead of fourth-place Manchester City, Liverpool also became the halfway champion of the 2015/2016 Premier League season!

The Times congratulated Liverpool after the game: "Jurgen Klopp and his boys are looking forward to the best New Year's present. ”

The Guardian praised Liverpool's tenacity, saying: "A last-minute win is what makes a team admirable, it's the quality of a champion team! ”

However, the English media is also reminding Liverpool and Klopp, "Klopp needs to be wary of the fact that in the Premier League, the probability of equating the half-way title with the full-season championship is actually not very high." ”

Because the Premier League halfway championship and the season championship are not necessarily equated!

According to statistics, the Premier League has been restructured into a super league since the 1992/1993 season, and until last season, a total of 23 seasons have produced 23 half-way titles. But there were 11 half-way titles that ended up not being the final full course winners. In other words, only 12 of the 23 half-way champions in the Premier League until last season were able to lift the trophy at the end of the season, with a 52% chance of winning. This is indeed not a relatively high probability.

The last team to be crowned half-way champions, but ultimately missed out on winning the title, was Arsene Wenger's Arsenal. In the 2013/2014 season, Arsenal won 19 rounds, 13 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses to get 42 points, leading Manchester City by 1 point and being crowned the halfway champion. But in the second half of that season, Wenger's mentality of "small wealth is peace" made the Gunners' record in March and April decline seriously, Arsenal only scored 79 points for the year, lost to Manchester City by 7 points, and ranked fourth in the Premier League.

Of course, in football statistics, there is no need to repeat the history that is too long. After all, the situation and environment of the Premier League more than 10 years ago are very different from the current situation, and there is no comparison with the present, if you only look at the data of the past 10 seasons, 7 of the 10 half-way champion teams have laughed to the end and successfully won the championship, with a probability of 70% to win the championship, with only 3 exceptions: the half-way champion in the 2008/2009 season is Liverpool, but the final champion is Manchester United; Manchester United won the 2011/2012 halfway season, but Manchester City won the eventually. The 2013/2014 halfway season was won by Arsenal and the final winner was Manchester City.

Therefore, the Times reminded Liverpool that winning the halfway title is worth celebrating, but if they want to defend the Premier League title this season, they should not be taken lightly.

However, the Guardian cheered Liverpool fans up, 'now is the time to enjoy the halfway title, don't worry about anything, don't forget, Liverpool has a river, there is nothing to be afraid of'......

……

Three days later, in the 20th round of the English Premier League, Liverpool was held to a 1-1 draw by West Ham United, Jiang Chenxi did not score in the game, but he had one assist, and he has seven assists this season.

With 26 goals and seven assists in 21 league games, the stats are absolutely impressive, even compared to last season.

It was also after this game that Liverpool's official website announced that the team's young German player Leroy . Sane joined Mainz in the Bundesliga on loan for half a season.

Leroy Sane has been sent out on loan, which is also Liverpool's first move in this winter transfer window.
