18 April 2009, Old Trafford, Manchester, England.

Manchester United fans have turned this place into a sea of red, and this red is not Liverpool's red, but Manchester United's red, England's only red. In the minds of Manchester United fans, Liverpool is pseudo-red, and Manchester United is the only red.

The Liverpool fans who came to the away stadium were collectively wearing the away shirt of the Liverpool team today. Actually, they don't want to do that, they prefer to wear the red shirt of Liverpool's home stadium. However, to distinguish themselves from the Manchester United fans, they wore white away shirts.

However, in the minds of Liverpool fans, their hearts are always red, belonging to Liverpool's red.

The red derby, another red derby of the season.

In the two rounds of red derbies in the Premier League this season, Liverpool dominated the game and won completely. Especially when the two teams met in the last round, Liverpool directly knocked Manchester United from the top of the league table.

Manchester United have always remembered this hatred in their hearts. And it's not just this hatred between Manchester United and Liverpool, Ferguson's Manchester United team stepped on the shoulders of Liverpudlians when they came to power. However, by now, the roles of both sides seem to have changed again, and now it is the Liverpudlians who step on the shoulders of Manchester United.

It was from Manchester United that Liverpool's treble was snatched from last season's Manchester United, and the United fans have always held a grudge, and now this is their chance to get revenge and snatch a ticket to the FA Cup final on Liverpool's head to win this season's English FA Cup.

In this game, Alex 61 Sir Alex Ferguson lined up in a four-four-one-one formation, with Van der Sar in goalkeeper and Patrice Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand and Brown in the back four. The quartet in midfield were Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Michael Carrick and Cristiano 61 Ronaldo. In the midfield position is Rooney, and at the top of the field is Bulgarian striker Berbatov.

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez lined up a 4231 formation, with Reyna in goalkeeper and Arbeloa, Skrtel, Joel Luka and Luke Young in the back four. In the midfield position, Xavi 61, Alonso and Mascherano are the two in the midfield position. In the forward line are Kuyt, Qiu Ze and Arshavin, and at the top of the line is Fernando 61 Torres.

In fact, Carragher returned from injury today, but Benitez did not let him start. The main reason for this is that Carragher has not played for a long time and his form is not guaranteed. Today he was on the bench and ready to come off the bench.

At the beginning of the game, the first kick-off was the visiting team Liverpool, and Liverpool got the ball.

After the football was running, the Liverpool team was not in a hurry to attack. The Liverpudlians know it's not them who are in a hurry right now, and the Manchester United are certainly more anxious than they are. Otherwise, the Manchester United fans wouldn't have let them go.

Sure enough, as soon as the whistle blew at the start of the game, the Manchester United players actively rushed up and pressed the Liverpool players. Manchester United's fans cheered on the team with loud singing and they were desperate for the team to win the game.

Under pressure from Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov, Mascherano immediately passed the ball forward to Qiu Ze in front.

Qiu Ze's ability to hold and protect the ball is very good, and his passing is also very sharp. When Qiu Ze took the ball to protect the ball, Liverpool's players could run actively, pull away from the defense to create gaps, and then just wait for Qiu Ze to pass the ball in time.

Liverpool have been playing like this a lot this season and they're familiar with it. And there is also a Xavi 61 Alonso on the back waist line, who has a good passing ability, and he can support Qiu Ze at any time, which is difficult for the opponent to break the ball.

Manchester United have also studied Liverpool very thoroughly, and of course they have kept a close eye on Qiu Ze. When Qiu Ze just received the ball, Carrick pounced, used his body to resist Qiu Ze, did not let Qiu Ze turn around, and at the same time kept stabbing the football at Qiu Ze's feet with his foot below.

Carrick's defense was fierce, but Qiu Ze still protected the football well and did not give Carrick any chance. And just as Carrick stretched out his foot to poke the ball, Qiu Ze turned around with a pull ball, and hit Carrick slightly on the shoulder, Carrick's body immediately shook and stumbled under his feet.

At this time, Qiu Ze immediately accelerated to get rid of Carrick with the ball, and rushed to the half of Manchester United.

Carrick, who finally stabilized his body, immediately raised his hand to signal that the referee Qiu Ze had committed a foul, but the referee didn't think so, he ignored Carrick at all, chased after Qiu Ze quickly, and ran to the Manchester United team's penalty area.

At this time, Liverpool's attacking players are actively running, they start to run in and out of front, mobilizing and pulling Manchester United's defense, their purpose is to disrupt Manchester United's defense and pull out the void.

Liverpool's players are running very often and executing very well. However, Manchester United's defensive players are not bad, and they are not messed up with the interspersed runs of Liverpool players. Their defense today was not to defend against people, but to defend in zones.

Every defender in the United team is stuck in their area and when someone comes up to interfere in their area, they go up and defend. When no one comes up to interfere, they control their defensive zone and are ready to help.

Therefore, now Liverpool's players are changing positions frequently and running interspersed, but Manchester United's defenders are not chaotic, they are still stubbornly defending their own area, and the whole back line is kept very intact and compact.

Qiu Ze, who had the ball, rushed towards the Manchester United penalty area with the ball, while carefully observing the situation of the Manchester United team's backline.

I have to say that at this time, the back line of Manchester United was very well organized, and Qiu Zezhen, who took the ball, did not find any special haode vacancy. And at this time, Manchester United's Paul Scholes also pounced quickly, and Qiu Ze did not stick to the ball and sent the football directly to the side.

The ball rolled quickly to the feet of Arshavin on the wing, and Manchester United full-back Brown immediately pounced, clinging to Arshavin, staring closely at the football at Arshavin's feet.

Arshavin held the football and slowly moved forward to prepare for the breakthrough. At this time, Qiu Ze, as a forward midfielder, immediately ran away from Scholes, who was staring at him, and immediately inserted it like a sharp dagger into the space left by Brown after rushing out, that is, the rib position of the Manchester United team's penalty area.

Manchester United's defenders were shocked, and Scolar and Manchester United's central defender Vidic immediately pounced, especially Manchester United's central defender Vidic, who immediately pushed to the wing to follow Qiu Ze. Qiu Ze is a rather troublesome character, and he can't give Qiu Ze a chance to get the ball in the penalty area.

Vidic immediately pounced and followed Qiu Ze closely. However, Arshavin, who took the ball on the wing, did not give the football to Qiu Ze, who was inserted in the stitches, but gently knocked his heel to the bottom line and handed the football to the fullback Luke Young, who was inserted from behind him.

Luke Young, who was plugging in at high speed, chased the ball at high speed, he didn't stop the ball, and immediately got up with his feet, and a curling ball sent the ball into the Manchester United box.

The ball flew swiftly over Qiu Ze and Vidic's heads and into the middle of the Manchester United penalty area.

"Danger!" Sky Sports commentator Tim 61 Laurson roared in horror.

Because one of Manchester United's central defenders, Nemanja Vidic, has been transferred from Qiu Ze, and the defense in the middle of the Manchester United penalty area is quite weak.

At this time, Liverpool's Spanish striker Fernando 61 Torres rushed up, jumped high and smashed the flying ball hard.

Ferdinand, on the other hand, was directly squeezed on the outside by Fernando 61 Torres, and it was impossible for him to touch the football before Fernando 61 Torres. Unless Fernando 61 Torres made a mistake himself, missed the ball and leaked it.

"Torres, header!" Sky Sports commentator Tim 61 Laurson roared passionately again.

Boom! There was a loud bang, and Fernando 61 Torres's head slammed into the ball, and the ball immediately bounced off Fernando 61 Torres's head, slammed into the ground with a rapid slam before Van der Sar's body flew sideways, and then a rebound jumped past Van der Sar's ten fingers and flew into the Manchester United goal.

"Bounce the ball! Fernando 61 Torres headed a rebounding ball. This is the most difficult type of ball for a goalkeeper to defend. Fernando 61 Torres was really fantastic, he didn't give the Dutchman a chance! Ball in and pull! Ball in and pull! Liverpool! Sky Sports commentator Tim 61 Laurson roared with excitement.

The whole of Old Trafford was quiet at this time, and the United fans had not yet reacted to what was going on. Their goal was breached by Liverpool, and their minds were blank at this point, and they didn't know what was going on on the pitch.

The players of Manchester United are also collectively enlightened, and they are a little unclear about the situation. Why did they concede the ball just beginning? The Manchester United players were a little blindsided by Liverpool's goal, and they were a little out of their way.

"Shet! Damn it! Sir Alex Ferguson saw this situation on the sidelines, and he immediately threw the drink he had just opened and drank on the ground, and the water splashed and wet his trousers, but the old man did not notice it at all.

At this point, Sir Alex Ferguson was completely angry, and he was very unhappy with the team's defense. It was Qiu Ze who broke the balance of Manchester United's defensive system with a simple straight insertion, and this defensive player was really not in place at all.

At this time, the old gentleman has been complaining that the Manchester United team's defensive player Weishenme did not fill the gap in the middle of the penalty area for the first time, leaving so much space for the Liverpudlians, isn't this the rhythm of looking for death?

Very dissatisfied, the old man is very dissatisfied with the team's defense.

Fernando 61 Torres, who scored the goal, was very excited at this time, he did not expect to score with his first shot, which was a bunker of luck. After scoring the goal, he rushed straight to the sidelines, jumped onto the billboard, and excitedly waved his fist at the Liverpool fans.

The Liverpool fans at the scene were very cooperative, and whenever Torres waved his fist, they collectively chanted Torres' name, which was so loud that the United fans were ashamed.
