2 p.m. on January 17. （）

It's 9 p.m. in China.

Anfield is about to usher in another tough game this season.

The stands around it have already been filled with a wave of red, and the fans of Liverpool and Manchester have started a war between fans two hours before the start of the game!

Although the visitors have only a fifth as many fans as the home team, they have created the same atmosphere as their opponents during this time!

Because they are more confident!

Because they crushed their mortal enemies in the first round of the encounter!

"20 top league titles! The only hegemon of English football! ”

"13 Premier League titles! Excuse me, but how many are there in Liverpool?! ”

"Think about 2-1 half a year ago, where was your savior then?!"

"We don't want the championship this year, we don't want Champions League qualification, we just want to kill you!"

Glaring slogans and banners fluttered in the wind from the visitors' stands, and even the most aggressive KOP could do nothing but fight back with angry boos.

Police and security completely separated the home and away fans, and the closest distance between the two areas was more than 10 meters, with a tall barbed wire fence erected in between, and the angry fans couldn't even throw mineral water bottles.

Every Red Cross has to mobilize almost half of the North West of England with a police force, not just on the pitch, but also on the streets and neighbourhoods of the entire city, especially around the pubs, who have to be on guard as if they were facing a great enemy.

Over the city, the English police even sent three helicopters to patrol to ensure that the disturbance could be controlled and defused as soon as possible.

"Have you read the news on the Internet?"

In the home team's dressing room, several players were discussing.

"Is Van Gaal's position not secured?"

"That's right, I heard that Manchester United are ready to ask Mourinho to take over the manager's position, and it is quite likely, even the BBC and Sky TV have reported it!"

"What's the use of bringing in Mourinho? We can get him out of Chelsea and we can get him out of Manchester United again! ”

"Hahaha, that's right! Even if we tie Pep Guardiola and Mourinho together, they are not our opponents today! ”

Rodgers listened to the lively and confident discussion of the players, but couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

He heard someone shouting his name:

"Brendan, you don't have pity for Van Gaal, do you?"

Rogers raised his eyelids and shook his head with a smile:

"Dragon, don't be kidding. Louis van Gaal is a legendary coach who is equal to a championship, and I don't even have a trophy in my hands, do I pity him? Then who will pity me?! ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Long Shute's mouth:

"Then I'll rest assured, brothers, come with me! Let's send off this legendary coach together! ”

In the narrow tunnel of players at Anfield, the starting 11 of both sides met here.

Although the 22 were some of their international team-mates or former club friends, such as Lonshette and Blind, they teased each other a few times before the last round, but this time, they didn't even look at each other again.

Liverpool can't afford to lose again, they can't afford to be beaten by their arch-rivals this season, and even if they win the title, they will be ridiculed.

Manchester United can't afford to lose again, otherwise Louis van Gaal will not be able to withstand the multiple pressures from the board and fans.

They are all hungry for victory, but there will only be one winner in the end!

-

Ronshit stands proudly across from Manchester United's captain Wayne Rooney.

He was followed by De Gea, Smalling, Young, Blind, Damian, Schneiderlin, Fellaini, Lingard, Anthony Martial and Herrera.

Manchester United's starting line-up flashed through Ronschet's mind and quickly came up with a slightly strange formation.

It is clear that Schneiderlin and Fellaini are both defensive players who are used to limit themselves, and Lingard and Herrera can join the defensive team if necessary, but as a result, there is no real playmaker in United's midfield, such as Michael Carrick, or Juan Mata – although the two are very different in their positions and roles......

Manchester United...... Is it to abandon the midfield and go directly to the defenders to find the striker?!

Long Shute gritted his teeth and smiled, is this the tactic that Chef Fan used to deal with me?

He patted the eye-catching badge above the passage and walked out with his head down.

THIS IS ANFIELD！

This is Anfield, this is ...... My Turf!

-

What about your turf?

The Manchester United players launched a strong challenge to the hosts with their own actions.

In less than three minutes after the opening, the French golden boy Anthony Martial broke through the bottom along the left side of the penalty area with a football, and Liverpool's full-back Klein couldn't catch up with him although he was full of horsepower!

Thankfully, Lovren jammed the inside passage and Anthony Martial had to finish the attack with a shot from almost no angle, and the ball went around Mignolet's zone before sliding past the goalkeeper, leaving Rodgers and the fans in a cold sweat.

Long Shute couldn't help but be angry.

MD！ If you want to do it, don't blame me for being ruthless!

Less than 10 seconds after United's attack, Liverpool's attack swept in.

Mignolet made a short pass to Sako, and after Lucas passed it, he found Ronshette, and the captain of the Reds did not have any stagnation, and launched a long pass directly from the backfield, and the ball flew over most of the field and found Lallana who ran wildly!

Dragonsette doesn't know how Lallana feels his thoughts, but this is a great opportunity!

Blind, who was once again playing as a central defender, failed to block the high ball from Lonshette, but instead gave Lallana a chance to face the goalkeeper, and the midfielder, who ran more cheerfully than striker Firmino, was a little foggy in his head for a while!

De Gea's reaction was fast enough that he even rushed straight out of the six-yard box, ready to use his body to clear Liverpool's attack, but Lallana was still quicker!

Lallana is a player with a lot of skill in England, but he is still not as good as Kaka who singled out the entire Manchester United defence or Ronshette a little later, otherwise when the ball falls to his forehead, he can deftly rub it and then shake off the attacking De Gea and face the empty goal.

Not only did he not do this, but he jumped up slightly awkwardly, pushed hard, and tried to hit the goal with a direct header!

Pity...... At this moment, he does not have the shine of Robin van Persie at the World Cup, and De Gea is not Casillas who is past his prime.

Lallana's header flew only half as long as it was struck by De Gea, who was tall and armed, and Firmino, who followed him, won with a low shot, but was blocked by De Gea's brave outstretched foot!

However, De Gea was able to block once, block twice, but not the third.

The ball bounced to Coutinho and the Brazilian flicked a shot from the left side of the box to frighten De Gea and two defenders to lunge at him, but he pushed it diagonally down the middle.

Instead of receiving the ball, his fellow Brazilian Lucas spread his legs wide and slipped the ball through.

Then De Gea knew that his clean sheet had come to an end in the fifth minute......

He watched as the red figure grabbed Schneiderlin's kick and completed the action of pulling out his foot and shooting angrily!

"Liverpool have another shot! Longshot ！ From Long Shute！ A long-range shot from Ronjut! ”

With the roar of the live announcer that dragged out the end of the note, Blind, who was guarding the front of the penalty area, saw a white light flash in front of him!

There was no thought in his mind of desperately blocking the eye-catching!

MD, this is Long Ritian's full burst!

Who can stop TMD?!

-

Rogers was already high-five his assistants in celebration.

Van Gaal, a few steps away, had a frustration on his face that could not be concealed.

More than 40,000 KOPs let out a deafening shout from the stands!

"Dragon! Dragon! Dragon! ”

This is their territory!

That's their captain!

In the 5th minute of the opening game, Liverpool, who was playing at home, took the lead!
