169. Fierce and fiery opening
The referee's whistle blew and Liverpool's away match against Manchester United officially began.
The first kick-off was the home team, Manchester United, and the United fans immediately erupted in blazing cheers to cheer the team on, and of course scare the Liverpool players and let the Liverpool trash know that this is Old Trafford, this is their Manchester United home.
However, shortly after the kick-off of the game, Anderson's pass was suddenly cut off by Qiu Ze in the middle of the game. Before Manchester United's first attack could take shape, the football at their feet was cut off by Liverpool, and the scene immediately resounded with the surprised cries of Manchester United fans.
And the Liverpool fans erupted into the hottest and most ferocious cheers to cheer for Liverpool.
Cut off the ball at the foot of the opponent's lower back, Qiu Ze did not advance with the ball, but directly made a straight ball, the ball was like a sharp sword, and with a flash of sword light, the ball cut through the enemy's throat and gave the enemy a fatal blow.
Because, at this time, the game has just begun, and Manchester United is pressing forward as a whole, so their back line is very empty, scattered, and very porous.
Qiu Ze's through ball was fatal, cutting straight through the Red Devils' three defenders and rolling forward in a hurry. Liverpool's Spanish striker Fernando 61 Torres rushed out of the Manchester United defenders at the moment of Qiu Ze's pass and cut into the Manchester United penalty area.
The ball arrives at the person, and it goes straight to the single knife.
"Single knife! Liverpool Chance! Sky Sports commentator Tim 61 Laurson suddenly roared with excitement.
"Ah, damn it!" The Manchester United fans screamed in horror, they really didn't expect the game to go in this direction, they were all confused.
"Onward! Kill the damn Manchester United, Fernando! The Liverpool fans roared with excitement, all their passion stirred up by the ball.
Qiu Ze's through ball penetrated the entire Manchester United defence, and Fernando 61 Torres dribbled the ball into the United penalty area, and the Manchester United defenders were chasing, but it was clearly in vain.
Manchester United's goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar saw Fernando 61 Torres coming with a single shot, and he rushed out in a frenzy. However, seeing Fernando 61 Torres rushing into the box so quickly, he took a step back.
At this moment, Fernando 61 Torres suddenly got up and hit the ball with a fierce kick, and the ball immediately clung to the turf and flew towards the Manchester United goal.
"Shoot!" Sky Sports commentator Tim 61 Laurson roared with excitement.
"Good shot! Great Van der Sar! He pounced! Sky Sports football commentator Gary 61 Lineker roared excitedly, very excited.
At the moment when Fernando 61 Torres shot, Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar swooped sideways, his outstretched hands just in time to block the speeding ball.
The ball was saved by him, and it bounced off and into the feet of Rio Ferdinand, a defender from Manchester United's pursuit.
"Wow! Magical Van der Sar! We love you! You are the best door gods in the whole Shijie! The Manchester United fans immediately gave Van der Sar the most blazing cheers to congratulate him.
"Oops! It's a pity! Liverpool fans collectively sighed and regretted.
Seeing that the football was saved, Fernando 61 Torres, who shot the goal, held his head in his hands, full of remorse, knowing that he should have passed Van der Sar. It's a pity that this shijie doesn't have regret medicine.
Rio Ferdinand received the ball and immediately turned around and drove the ball straight to the flank. On the flanks of the front, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo leaned on Liverpool's full-back Finnan and stopped the football. Then, pretending to go down, he suddenly turned the ball sideways and cut inside towards the Liverpool penalty area.
Liverpool's defenders were taken aback and centre-back Carragher immediately pounced to block it. However, before Carragher pounced, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo shot directly at the front of the penalty area.
With a bang, the football shot at Liverpool's goal like a cannonball, and the Liverpool fans were shocked. However, Liverpool's goalkeeper Reyna performed well, falling directly to the ground and holding the football in his arms.
Soon after the start of the game, the goalkeepers of both sides each had a wonderful performance, and the atmosphere of the scene was brought up at once.
In the backfield, Reyna threw the ball to attack, Benayoun on the side caught the ball and rushed forward, Manchester United player Nani pounced directly, Nani finally started today, I was very excited, this guy saved a little too much.
Seeing Nani pounce ferociously, Benayoun did not choose to break through, but passed the ball directly to Fernando 61 Torres, who returned to the middle in front of him. The retreating Fernando 61 Torres did not stop the ball, but quickly returned the ball to the wing, and then Fernando 61 Torres turned and rushed forward at high speed.
Fernando 61 Torres and Benayoun came up with a wall-kicking one-two to break through Nani's defense very easily. Holding the ball, Benayoun rushed forward quickly, and Torres, Qiu Ze and Kuyt frantically stepped forward, looking for an opportunity.
Manchester United's defenders were on standby, and when Benayoun came with the ball at high speed, Manchester United's full-back Patrice Evra immediately stepped up. But Patrice Evra didn't get very well on the top, and the guy was close to the middle, giving way to the wing.
Evra wanted to squeeze Benayoun out of the outside line and prevent Benayoun from cutting inside, but Benayoun didn't mean to cut inside at all, seeing Evra pounce, Benayoun suddenly turned the football sideways, and the football came to the feet of Qiu Ze, who was following in the middle.
Catch the football and take a light step forward, and then Qiu Ze volleys directly at the front of the big penalty area!
It was a tentative shot, but it was full of liliang, but unfortunately it was slightly off, and the ball flew slightly off the right post and flew out of the bottom line, and then smashed the billboard with a crisp sound.
During this time, Liverpool's attack was fierce, which made the Manchester United fans on the scene very unhappy, and they immediately erupted into a ferocious boo, both booing the Liverpool players and putting pressure on the Manchester United players, at this time, they hoped that the Manchester United players could harden up.
Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar drove the ball out, and the United took the ball and then passed it backwards in midfield, attracting Liverpool's defensive formation. Suddenly, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo on the wing gave the football to Hargreaves in the middle.
Hargreaves caught the ball and pushed it straight to Nani on the side. As soon as Nani received the ball, he quickly dribbled forward, and Benayoun strode it in stride. Nani went straight to the ball and flicked it past Benayoun with ease.
Seeing Nani come up with the ball, Liverpool's full-back Finnan pressed the step point and retreated, while desperately blocking the middle and letting go of the outside lane. It seems that he still gave the other party room to go down. Nani immediately took the ball and seemed to go down.
Fen Na turned sharply and turned down, and followed, leaning on it with his body. However, suddenly, Nani's left heel slammed the ball into the middle. The ball crossed Finnan and rolled down the middle. Finnan turned his head in surprise, and he saw Hargreaves following up, holding the ball.
However, at the moment when Hargreaves got the ball, Liverpool's midfield maestro Xavi 61 Alonso made a direct sliding tackle and rushed to the ball at the feet of Hargreaves. Maybe I sensed a sliding shovel next to me. So, Hargreaves immediately used his body to protect the ball.
Bang! Hargreaves was shoveled to the ground.
In fact, the Liverpool team's defender Xavi 61 Alonso has already closed his feet, so Hargreaves is not injured. I just hung up on him, and my foot hurt a little.
"Flute!" The referee's whistle blew quickly and the referee raced past and awarded Manchester United a direct free-kick in front. The ball is positioned a little in front of the big penalty line, leaning on the left side of the penalty area, and it is a relatively haode free kick. At the same time, the referee also showed Xavi 61 Alonso a yellow card.
For the referee's decision, Xavi 61 Alonso did not react, it is normal for the ball to be yellow carded, he was fouled, he did shovel Hargreaves, there is no objection, Xavi 61 Alonso did not explain, turned around directly, and went to the wall.
Of course, the United fans quit, they thought it was definitely a red card, and they put pressure on the referee to signal the referee to give Xavi 61 Alonso a red card. It's their Manchester United home stadium, shouldn't this be a damn red card for Liverpool? Do you want to fucking mess around in Manchester, referee?
At this time, the fans of the Liverpool team also began to shout frantically for the actor, they thought that Hargreaves was a fake fall, and he didn't shovel him at all, he even dared to fall so exaggeratedly, and the traces of this performance were too heavy, why didn't the damn referee see it? Is this the perk of playing at home?
Seeing that Xavi 61 Alonso did not have too many disputes, and the referee also gave a yellow card, the Manchester United players did not step forward to say anything? Because by this time, Hargreaves had already stood up on his own, and he really didn't suffer any injuries.
So, the players of Manchester United don't think it's necessary, and it's time to think about how to deal with this direct free-kick.
Left side of the pitch, direct free kick!
It was a very good chance to open the scoring and the United fans in the stadium were looking forward to the first goal.
Hargreaves and Cristiano 61 Roan appeared in front of the ball, and the two seemed to be discussing something. After discussion, Hargreaves then ran directly into the penalty area, and it seems that the goal was still headed by Cristiano 61 Ronaldo.
Originally, Rooney and Nani wanted to go up to serve the ball, but they saw that Hargreaves also left, and it was obvious that the ball was for Cristiano 61 Ronaldo to serve, so they didn't go up.
The referee looked quickly into the box, where there was nothing unusual except for the crowd. Then he turned his head to look at Cristiano 61 Ronaldo, and when he saw that Cristiano 61 Ronaldo was also ready, he directly blew the whistle in his hand.
"Flute!" With a crisp sound, Cristiano 61 Ronaldo ran quickly.
