The 207th Merseyside Derby was played at Anfield Stadium at 4pm on the 30th. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Liverpool and Everton have met 31 times in the Premier League, with Liverpool winning 12, drawing 11 and losing 8, but they have a slight advantage, but Liverpool's home Anfield have an excellent record, winning six and drawing seven and losing only two.

Not only have Liverpool been outstanding this season and dominated the Premier League, but Everton have also been thriving under David Moyes and are now fifth in the Premier League, and if they can hold on to that position at the end of the season, they will have their best result in the Premier League.

Everton's surprisingly good form and coincided with a crucial moment in the battle for the league title with city rivals Liverpool making the 207th Merseyside derby particularly important, with the pre-match Times survey showing that it was also the most eye-catching match of the round for fans and media.

Everton are nine points away from fourth-place Chelsea in the league, and their hopes of reaching the Champions League are slim, they are also eight points above eighth place, and there is basically no problem in reaching the League Cup, if it were not for Liverpool, Everton may not have paid much attention to it at all, but now, all Evertonians have said that they want to help Manchester United stop Liverpool and do their best to destroy Liverpool's dream of defending the title.

Liverpool have always looked down on Everton, even if they can't completely overwhelm Everton in the game, but they can completely look down on Everton in terms of results, and Benitez even contemptuously called Everton, which was founded 14 years earlier than Liverpool, a small club.

In the face of Everton's pre-match threat of blocking, except for Liverpool fans and Everton fans on the forum to have a fierce quarrel, Liverpool's players, coaches, and club officials did not make any reaction, which is a wordless contempt, this contempt makes Everton even more angry, although they no longer continue to say the words of blocking, but everyone vows to give Liverpool a little color on the field, even if they can't win, let Liverpool's players lose a layer of skin.

When they came out of the dressing room, Liverpool's players felt the murderous aura and resentment exuded by the Everton players, although Liverpool had always taken Everton to heart, but at this time they couldn't help but feel Ling Ran.

Gerrard quietly said to Chen Yu, who was walking behind him: "Today's game is not good. ”

"What?" Chen Yu obviously had something on his mind, and he didn't hear Gerrard's words clearly, Gerald repeated it again, and Chen Yu said: "It doesn't matter if he plays well or not, we have to get three points anyway." ”

Gerrard said: 'Three points are a must, Manchester United will win for sure, they have always been resilient and if we don't take three points we will be overtaken by them. ”

Chen Yu said: "Looking at the resentment of the Everton players, they will probably attack at the beginning, and we can't give them morale. ”

Gerard said domineeringly: "There is no place for them to go wild in Anfield. ”

After the opening, Chen Yu's conjecture was confirmed, and Everton desperately pressed at the beginning, as if they wanted to vent all the anger accumulated before the game.

Liverpool is fighting at their own doorstep, that is not at all weak, in the face of Everton's pressing, Liverpool grabbed more fiercely, played faster, Everton wanted to vent, Liverpool just didn't let them vent.

Everton players have always held a breath in their hearts, this breath can't come out, their mood has become very irritable, in the fifth minute of the game, midfielder Pienal received a yellow card for a malicious foul on Gerrard, but this did not calm down Everton's players, in the eighth minute of the game, fullback Osman fouled Chen Yu behind his back and received a yellow card again.

Referee Webb originally wanted to use the two yellow cards to calm down the Everton players, but he soon found that his actions made the Everton players mistakenly think that he was biased towards Liverpool, and his emotions were even more uncontrollable.

Webber is a world-class referee with a wealth of experience and adaptability, and three minutes later, he showed Liverpool midfielder Marcos Alonso a yellow card.

If Weber's card just now, Alonso's yellow card can be given or not, Alonso and other players of Liverpool came to protest Weber's unfair punishment, seeing that Liverpool's midfield core Alonso also received a yellow card, Everton's players have a lot of resentment in their hearts, although the action is still very fierce, but it will not deliberately provoke the referee and the opponent.

The game was very intense, the pace was fast, and there was rarely too much entanglement in the midfield, the ball was still in the Everton penalty area one second, and in the blink of an eye, the ball flew to the Liverpool penalty area, every attack, every pass pointed directly at the opponent's vital point, the fans were dazzled, and at the same time did not dare to relax in the slightest, for fear of missing the goal.

Commentary seats

Before the goal was scored, the commentator on the scene almost climaxed himself, "The derby is a game of bayonets!" You don't need to be forbearing, and you don't need to defend, just see who is more fierce and who is more ruthless...... Kuyt's header ...... Gerrard shoots from distance! Spread what?! Kuyt's ball should be given to Chen Yu...... Just your archery, what kind of shooting...... Everton shoots! Phil. Neville! The former Manchester United player, moving to Everton, is a revenge on revenge...... Phil. Neville's Flying Shovel! This is really ruthless, according to the scale that has just been dealt to Alonso, this time it should be punished......"

Sidelines

Benitez and David Moyes were both stepping into the pitch, and the fourth official watched nervously as they watched as they entered. The scene was so intense that the two coaches couldn't sit still for a second.

Benitez was relatively quiet, only roaring when his players made low-level mistakes.

Moyes is young and passionate, and he roars and gesturs at the pitch almost every few seconds, as if he is about to rush into the pitch shirtless at any moment.

Due to the fast and intense pace of the game, although the game had only passed for more than ten minutes, the fans had a feeling that they had just begun, until the commentator shouted "Enter one!" At that time, the fans realized that the score was still 0-0 after more than ten minutes, they were not satisfied, this is Anfield, he is the defending champion, the team that has won the most Champions League in the Premier League, what is the opponent, it is almost 20 minutes, and it is actually on par with their own team, this can't be tolerated, so Liverpool fans also chanted with the commentator "Enter one!" Enter one! ”

Here's the home advantage, and the chanting of tens of thousands of fans in unison creates a strange magic that will make even a mediocre player burst with superstar energy.

Liverpool's players were already playing with Everton, and when the fans shouted like this, it was like eating Viagra, running more actively, fighting more fiercely, and making more bold moves.

Everton began to rely on the scorned anger and jealousy to play at a super level, the opportunity was not created much, but the field was almost on par with the Liverpool team, and now Liverpool's players broke out collectively, Everton was a little unable to resist, and was beaten back again and again by Liverpool, and the midfield could barely hold.

In the 21st minute of the game, Chen Yu broke out, broke through the opponent's defense, and inserted diagonally into the penalty area from the side.

Before entering the penalty area, Everton's players didn't have time to foul, and after entering the penalty area, Everton's players didn't dare to foul, so they had to use people to block and not give Chen Yu a chance to shoot.

Chen Yu cut in from the wing, the angle of the shot was not large, and he was ready to pass the ball from the beginning, and the Everton players were not completely in place, so Chen Yu passed the ball.

It was a wide-sighted pass, and instead of going to the edge of the box as everyone had guessed, the ball was rolled up to the other end of the box.

At this time, the attention of both the attack and defense was on Chen Yu's side, and the far end almost became a corner that no one paid attention to, Chen Yu's ball passed, and everyone noticed that Reese had run to the winger's position, and Everton's full-back received the penalty area line.

Reese was clever enough to spot that Babbel was running towards him as he was about to stop the ball, and he decisively headed the ball to Babbel for him.

Reese passed the ball unguarded, as easy as training, the ball passed very well, Babbel did not need to adjust the pace point, two steps to follow, did not wait for the ball to fall, jumped up and shot the ball with the instep.

Compared with the stormy onslaught in front, the speed of this fast attack led by Chen Yu was very fast, so that Everton almost had time to defend, but the rhythm was not in a hurry at all, and there was a feeling that the clouds were flowing smoothly.

Before the goal was scored, Liverpool fans couldn't help but applaud, such an attack, even if it didn't score, it was worth a lot of praise from fans.

Everton's goalkeeper Howard is an American, not a tall goalkeeper, but full of passion, quick to react, and often plays well in big games.

Today's game is definitely a big scene, the stadium is full, reporters from all over the world have come to the scene, people with poor psychological quality may not be able to play at a normal level, but Howard used to be a Manchester United goalkeeper and has had a lot of big scene experience, but he became more excited, and he had saved two difficult shots from Liverpool before.

Liverpool's attack was wonderful, the last shot was crisp and powerful, and the angle was also very tricky, any goalkeeper would have a headache when encountering this kind of shot, because there was no time to prepare, but Howard in an extremely difficult situation, a flying leap, across more than three meters, with his fingertips to poke the ball out of the bottom line.

At this moment, Everton fans also burst into applause, this applause was for their goalkeeper Howard, at the moment when Babel shot, many Everton fans were half cold, thinking that the goal was going to be scored, Howard surprised them and saved this very intimidating shot.

Babbel shrugged his shoulders and shook his head helplessly, he had done everything he could, jumped up and shot like a second kick, the instep was still pressed, the angle was also awkward, and the volley was full of power, from any point of view, it was a perfect shot, but it didn't go in.

If you don't score, it's not a good goal, and competitive football is so cruel.

Liverpool's fans all regretted, sighed, and some nitpickled said that it would be good if the power was a little bigger, and Chen Yu's shot might have been in, but Babel was still small.

However, the Liverpool players on the field understand Babbel very well and come over to comfort, although Chen Yu did not comfort Babbel in action, but he gave Everton goalkeeper Howard a thumbs up, which can be regarded as a disguised comfort to Babbel, if it weren't for his excellent shot, Howard's save would not have caused so many cheers.
