China is also hyping the explosive news of Mourinho's dismissal, but unlike Europe, when Mourinho is being hyped, the Chinese media has not forgotten the battle between Chen Yu and Birmingham. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Because Zheng Hua is in the Championship and Sun Hai has very few opportunities to play in Manchester City, the Chinese derby that Chinese fans and media expect has not been able to be staged, and now with the entry of Hong Kong billionaire Yeung Ka-shing into Birmingham, it seems that an alternative Chinese derby can finally be staged, but due to Chen Yu's ban, the derby between the Chinese superstar and the Chinese boss has also been missed again, which makes domestic fans very disappointed.

Although Chen Yu will not be able to participate in the game against Birmingham, the Chinese media can still find the highlight of whether Chen Yu and Yang Jiacheng will watch the game in a box, because Yang Jiacheng has previously sent an invitation to Chen Yu to watch the game between Birmingham City and Liverpool with Chen Yu.

In this regard, "Football News" also made a survey to see if fans support Chen Yu and Yang Jiacheng to watch the game together, and the results showed that the vast majority of fans supported Chen Yu to accept Yang Jiacheng's invitation, and even some fans hoped that Chen Yu could transfer to Birmingham City to create a club with real Chinese characteristics.

On the day of the match between Liverpool and Birmingham, because of the disparity in the strength of this game, the reporter did not have much interest in the game, and the camera kept looking in the stands to see if Chen Yu came to watch the game, and to see if Chen Yu was sitting in a box with Yang Jiacheng.

Chen Yu came, and Chen Yu really sat in a box with Yang Jiacheng!

However, to the surprise of reporters and fans, not only Chen Yu appeared in Yang Jiacheng's box, but even Liverpool's owner Gillette also came from the United States.

It turned out that the impact of Yang Jiacheng's invitation to Chen Yu to watch the game together had gone beyond the scope of England, and even Gillette, who was far away in the United States, knew about it.

Of course, Gillette knows what Yang Jiacheng's purpose of inviting Chen Yu to watch the game together, he wants to dig the corner of Liverpool, digging the corner of Liverpool is digging his corner, now Chen Yu is Liverpool's trump card, Liverpool's baby, he must not allow this kind of thing to happen.

Although Birmingham is just a small club, Yang Jiacheng is really rich, people are cash, and he Gillette only has bank loans, in addition to Yang Jiacheng and Chen Yu are Chinese, which should not be underestimated, so Gillette can't wait to fly to Liverpool from the United States and accompany Yang Jiacheng with Chen Yu to watch this game that looks like the result is decided, and there is no attraction in this game.

Liverpool drew hard at Porto in the Champions League group stage in midweek, drawing twice in a row on both fronts, and the team was heavily criticised by the English media after the game. Although Liverpool's results are already good compared to the same period last season, what worries fans is the team's continued slump, returning to the Premier League to welcome the underdogs Birmingham, and Manchester United and Chelsea have a strong conversation, and the Reds and fans alike see it as a good opportunity to bounce back.

On the other field, the Gunners won another 5-0 win in the just-concluded match between Arsenal and Derby County, and the points have caught up with Liverpool, which puts a lot of pressure on Liverpool.

Rafael Benitez didn't make much changes to his starting line-up, replacing Kuyt and Finnan with Voronin and Reese, and Pennant, who received a stupid red card in Portugal, surprisingly continued to start. Liverpool looked alive in the opening stages of the game, with Reese and Babel linking up to make waves down the left flank. In less than five minutes, Reeser and Volenen had two well-placed shots on goal.

This made Gillette, who was sitting in the box, very happy, and he said to Chen Yu with a smile: "Alas, if you are on the field, we must have taken the lead." ”

Chen Yu looked at Yang Jiacheng, not knowing whether Gillette was too straightforward or deliberate, and said: "That's not necessarily, sometimes it takes a little luck to score goals." ”

Yang Jiacheng said with a smile: "Don't be modest, we Chinese like to be modest, you are really on the field, maybe you really score." If we can have a striker like you, we have a chance to score points today. ”

Gillette smiled: "It's a pity that Chen Yu only has one. ”

Yang Jiacheng said: "Yes, there is only one Chen Yu in the 1.3 billion Chinese, if you don't want it anymore, you have to inform me." ”

Gillette said: "No, no, unless Chen Yu retires, we will not sell it." ”

Gillette spoke to stimulate Yang Jiacheng, and Yang Jiacheng also responded unceremoniously, and the two had a war of words, which made Chen Yu feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Birmingham suffered a surprise blow in the 14th minute when midfielder Ovhiña was substituted with an injury. Liverpool's attack is getting more and more fierce, and there is a tendency to blow the opponent's goal flat. Pennant was also active on the right flank, and Liverpool's style of play on both wings meant that Birmingham had to recycle their forces into the box and try to protect the landing point.

The advantage is so obvious, Liverpool looks like they could score at any time, Gillette is even more proud, and said to Chen Yu: "It's time for us to rebound, draw two games, and after you return in the next game, we can start the winning streak again." ”

Chen Yu frowned slightly, and said: "Birmingham's shrink defense is actually not easy to play, we can't score in the first half, and it will be difficult in the second half." ”

Yang Jiacheng was in a calm mood and said calmly: "We didn't expect to win this game at Anfield, we just came to learn, as a latecomer to invest in the Premier League, we still have a long way to go." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be."

Gillette said that he didn't dare to take it seriously, but the smug smile on his face became stronger.

Gillette thought Liverpool had won, but the game went out as he didn't expect, or everyone expected.

Birmingham's helpless move actually worked! Kuyt and Volonen, Liverpool's two starting centre-forwards, looked vulnerable to Birmingham's tall defenders, who were always uncomfortable converting passes into shots. Liverpool had a whopping 14 shots and 72 per cent possession in the first half, but failed to find the back of the net.

At halftime, Yang Jiacheng was very happy, chatting and laughing with Chen Yu, when talking about the national team, the Hong Kong tycoon said that if Chen Yu does not want to join the national team, he can join the Hong Kong team, and he can be responsible for pulling a line to ensure that the Hong Kong Football Association and fans are welcome.

In Gillette's view, Chen Yu is not young, and it is difficult to fight in the third and fourth lines of Liverpool, and if he joins the national team again, I am afraid that the risk of injury will increase.

"How can you join the Hong Kong team, a team like Hong Kong has no ability to enter the World Cup, and there is no bonus to Chen Yu's honor, if you can't go back to the Chinese team, it is better to play the club game wholeheartedly, with the club's results, Chen Yu will definitely be able to win the World Footballer of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or."

Gillette knew what Chen Yu wanted most now, and deliberately tempted Chen Yu with the World Footballer of the Year and the Golden Ball Award.

Chen Yu smiled slightly and said: "Thank you Mr. Gillette and Boss Yang, I have decided to return to the national team, although I may not participate in the match with Myanmar in October, but I will not miss the group stage." ”

Gillette stopped talking.

Yang Jiacheng said: "It's good to go back to the Chinese team, the strength is definitely stronger than the Hong Kong team, although the Chinese team is very uncompetitive, but it's a pity that a player hasn't played in the World Cup." ”

Chen Yu sighed and said, "This ...... It's hard to say, let's stop talking, the game is on, let's watch the game. ”

Yang Jiacheng smiled and said, "Well, I understand, watch the ball." ”

After the kick-off of the second half, Birmingham's players became more and more confident, while Liverpool's attack went wrong, and the players began to send the ball directly into the opposition penalty area in a hurry, although Benitez replaced Volening and Pennant successively, but the situation did not change substantially, but Birmingham began to use the home team's heavy pressure to play a dangerous counter-attack.

In the 79th minute, Cabo broke through quickly, Birmingham formed a two-on-two situation in front, and finally Birmingham striker McShefrey shot hard in front of the goal, Reina was powerless, but the ball was slightly wide of the post.

The Liverpool fans in the stands were silent, and Benitez off the field was also scared into a cold sweat.

Gillette's face in the VIP box was dark, he didn't expect Liverpool to reach a situation where even Birmingham could barely stop, there were ten minutes left in the game, and it seemed that it was not easy for Liverpool to win Birmingham.

At the beginning and middle of the game, Yang Jiacheng's mood was very relaxed, he lost anyway, and he didn't have any psychological burden, but now, he affirmed the hope of winning peacefully, and his mood became nervous, and he was not in the mood to chat with Chen Yu, his eyes were almost staring at the court.

Liverpool fans saw how difficult the situation had become, and they all stood up and sang the team song "You Will Never Go Alone" in unison.

Encouraged by loud and exciting singing, Liverpool almost pressed the whole team through the half and began to bombard Birmingham, but the result was that the attacking space was further compressed, the strikers had no room to make action at all, and long-range shots could not penetrate the dense human wall, and Liverpool had the advantage of possession and crossing, but could not send the ball into Birmingham's goal.

In the 89th minute, Liverpool had one last chance to change the scoreline when Steven Gerrard headed in a corner and Crouch slid to the far post, but unfortunately his angle-driven header went wide. In the next three minutes of stoppage time, Liverpool's mentality was even more urgent, and in such a mentality, they could not even create a chance to shoot, and had to accept a third draw in a week.

After the game, Yang Jiacheng happily closed his mouth, to be able to draw Liverpool at Anfield, this is definitely a feat, which is not easy for Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal giants are not easy to do, when he shook hands with Gillette, smiled and said to Gillette: "Promise, your luck today is too bad, let us pick up a cheap." ”

Gillette reluctantly shook hands with Yang Jiacheng, but he didn't even say a word to Yang Jiacheng.

Yang Jiacheng was not angry, and said to Chen Yu with a smile: "If you have time to go to Birmingham to play, I will invite you to dinner, well, call Sun Hai and Zheng Hua, and go." ”

Chen Yu smiled: "Okay, I must go." ”

Yang Jiacheng happily left the box and celebrated with the players from Birmingham.

Chen Yu sighed and said to Gillette: "Don't worry, Mr. Gillette, at least we have a much better result than at this time last season, and now Arsenal is one point less than us, even if Manchester United beats Chelsea, with the same number of points, we will score more goals, and the top of the table is still ours." ”

Gillette wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but say nothing, just said, "Let's go." ”
