Finally, Lokren actually had a couple of great shots on goal in the game.

City's full swing was to give them at least three great counter-attacking chances, two of which were solo strikes.

However, Neuer made two brilliant saves, one into the penalty area and cleared the ball, and tried to keep the goal clean.

The performance can be said to be quite good.

Ended the game.

Recuperating, Manchester City welcomed one of their true contenders in the league...... Liverpool.

The Premier League has now played eight rounds.

Among them, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City are all six wins, two draws and 20 points, ranking in the top three of the Premier League.

Manchester United have six wins, one draw and one defeat, and are fourth with 19 points.

It is followed by Liverpool with four wins, three draws and one loss, with 15 points.

Fulham scored 14 points, Southampton and Birmingham 12 points, Charlton Athletic and Portsmouth 11 points.

Combined with the fixtures, the really good teams this season are probably Newcastle United and Aston Villa.

And many of the above teams have already played against Manchester City.

As a result, Manchester City basically won quite easily.

It can be said that in the next round against Liverpool, if Manchester City can still win. Then it is not surprising that they have a good chance of reaching the Champions League place this season.

The match was played at Anfield, Liverpool's home stadium.

Both sides will take this game very seriously.

It is widely believed that Manchester City have the upper hand.

Because Liverpool's opponent in the last round was Arsenal, it was a tough battle. Liverpool ended up losing the game 1-2.

Manchester City, on the other hand, is very unkind.

In addition, there are several highlights of this game.

How did Steven Gerrard, the Premier League's new midfielder of the year, fare in front of Dunkai?

Will your feet slip?

Genius killer Robbie Fowler, how can he play in the face of the old master?

Golden boy Owen and Englishman Juli Husky teamed up, can they be sharper than Adriano + Ribery?

Can Norwegian electric drill John Reese, who previously disgraced Liverpool, come back to glory in this game?

It is rumored that Reeser has not been entertained by any of the English street girls for most of the past six months.

You can't spend money.

Because his reputation has been completely ruined.

Everyone knows that he is a ruthless piling machine, making his money, and there is no pleasure at all.

For this, Reeser had to pay ten times the price to make a prominent one.

In this game, Anfield was packed.

The Manchester City Expeditionary Force has only a handful of men.

But at least there is.

Last season, Manchester City were of course the king of the home field.

But on the road, they have very few fans.

Maybe one day, Manchester City will have fans all over the world.

In this game, on Manchester City's side, Thiago Silva replaced Desailly and got the opportunity to start in the central defender position, partnering Giorgio Chiellini.

This centre-back duo is not very tall and lacks hardness.

But it is strong in terms of maneuverability and flexibility.

Because their opponent is Robbie Fowler and Irving's little fast combination.

Four or five years ago, it was they who formed the England front line that terrified the backlines of countries around the world.

Husky, on the other hand, sat on the bench and became the team's second choice.

When the players from both sides lined up in the tunnel to enter the field, Deng Kai also gave Robbie Fowler a hug.

Fowler has only been with City for a year, but he has a very good impression of the city because this is where he has blossomed again.

Dunkai also shook hands with Gerald and exchanged pleasantries with Kirop.

All friends.

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Liverpool are clearly more proactive.

Because it's their home turf.

And Gerrard is also very active.

Compared to the Liverpool team they met in the UEFA Cup a year and a half ago, the current Liverpool team has not changed much.

There are strong veterans who have slipped or left, but there are also good young people who have come up.

But Gerrard's growth is there for all to see.

He has become the ceiling for this Liverpool team.

But alas, in the coming days, Liverpool fans will gradually wake up.

Gerald is not their ceiling, but their lower.

Because the midfielder can only decide the lower limit.

The backcourt is the bottom line of the team.

And the striker is the ceiling of a team.

Eighth minute.

Gerrard "The Ceiling" Gerrard was pulled by Smick and sent in a cross.

Robbie Fowler made a smart run and shook off Chiellini before Thiago Silva to grab a spot and score with a header!

Anfield, red boiling!

“GOAL！ Robbie Fowler rebels against the old master! Gave the old club a head drink! ”

"No way, Robbie Fowler is too familiar with Manchester City's defensive system, Chiellini and Thiago Silva couldn't guard him during the team's training matches, and they still can't prevent him."

'Robbie Fowler was one of the players who was most adapted to City's tactics last season.

"This is Fowler's seventh goal, and he is still in the second tier behind Thierry Henry and Adriano."

"Including Deng Kai, Ronaldo, and Ruud van Nistelrooy, they are all in this echelon."

Fifteenth minute.

Robbie Fowler once again made his way into the box with his spirit and set up a foul on Giorgio Chiellini.

Yellow Dot Package!

Owen then scored the penalty.

Two to zero!

Liverpool took an early lead.

The fans at the scene kept shouting Robbie Fowler's name.

The story of Fowler's return to Liverpool is as beautiful as a fairy tale!

Deng Kai immediately found Baggio, Ade, Ribery and others to communicate.

"Play in the middle, gather as far as you can in the middle and try to shoot more." Deng Kai is not looking down on Liverpool's goalkeeper Dudek, this is a good goalkeeper.

But Liverpool's squad is 442, and if you go on the wing, the players have to bear four levels: full-backs, full-backs, midfielders, and even central defenders.

And in the middle, you have to face two midfielders and two central defenders.

But the benefits of the middle lane are obviously higher than those of the side lane.

The midfield is always the most dangerous area in the world of football.

Twenty-third minute.

Deng Kai crossed the ball to Toure and then cut forward.

Liverpool had players to limit Deng Kai at that time.

Toure split up to find Ribery, and then stepped forward himself.

Liverpool's midfield defence is a little understaffed.

Where is the reason why two midfielders are in front?

Aren't you afraid of being beaten back?

Ribery passes forward.

Toure ran out and, after receiving the football, hoisted it into the back of the penalty area with a pick-and-roll pass.

Baggio also shook off Kirope and drilled into the box to head in the net.

Killop and Hyypia's attention was mainly on Adriano, ignoring Baggio.

Bang!

Dudek played at a high level and saved Baggio's header.
