Looking at the Liverpool players celebrating excitedly on the pitch, Mourinho frowned.

I just lost the goal at the beginning, I really didn't expect it.

Perrin beside him shouted at the field: "Pay attention to the defensive formation!" ”

There is a certain defensive responsibility for the goal just conceded.

Of course, the other party's trident is too fierce.

The opening kick-off was suddenly so resolute that it caught United off guard.

Carragher's words in the live broadcast room just now are agreed with by many Manchester United fans.

"Liverpool have a high ceiling."

That's right.

And they always have been.

Since the time when they won the Quadruple, Liverpool's forward line has been sharp and attacking.

If it weren't for the lack of consistent play, they would have returned to the top ranks long ago.

And today, their trident is in full swing.

Mourinho doesn't blame the players for that attack just now.

After all, even he himself didn't react on the sidelines.

It's too fast.

Mohamed Salah's breakthrough was sharp and the former Chelsea player has a strong appetite for performance every time he sees him.

In a few consecutive moves, he passed the defense of Rashford and Pogba, and his breakthrough ability was top in the world.

In the end, Mane's stop-and-go movements were quite dexterous and his final shot was resolute.

Mohamed Salah is Liverpool's star striker, but Mane's quality is definitely on the same level as him.

It can also pass the energy band, and the finishing ability is top-notch.

And the most important part of this goal is Firmino's tandem.

The two wingers rushed up and Firmino stepped forward to act as a pillar and did not go deep into the box, but met at the top of the arc.

The pass that had just followed the tandem was definitely the finishing touch to the goal.

This ball is not unjust......

That said, no one wants to concede a goal.

The Liverpudlians are celebrating, and the United players can't wait for the game to resume.

Standing on the sidelines of the pitch, Mourinho gave the players a few words of encouragement before continuing to watch the game quietly.

Although we conceded the goal at the beginning, it was just a sudden situation and it was not a big deal.

After the restart, Manchester United also launched a wave of attacks.

After a couple of strikers linked up front, Rashford used his pace to tear a path down the left.

Faced with Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold's tight defence, Rashford could not continue to break through.

Alexander-Arnold's defensive prowess is good, but after all, he is a player known for his assists.

And Rashford is also not a top individual skill, but he is extremely fast, and the two are on par with each other.

Manchester United quickly knocked down the middle to find Pogba.

Pogba then passes to the right to find Sanchez.

Sanchez receives the ball and suddenly cuts inside in the face of the defense!

About 28 meters away from the goal, a shot, the ball flew up quickly, and fell at high speed!

It was a good shot, but it was still slightly wide of the goal.

United's attack was in vain.

Five minutes later, United launched another attack.

This time it was Xia Xing's mid-field defense, and he made a long pass directly after breaking the ball.

The ball found exactly the way forward for Pogba.

Outside the box, Pogba shoots with his feet!

The ball slides out of the goal.

Manchester United once again missed a good chance to score.

The Red Devils fans in the stands applauded their players.

However, Mourinho on the sidelines frowned again.

Compared to the two teams, Liverpool are indeed better than Manchester United in many scores.

This must be acknowledged.

Especially the strength of the forward line, there is a big difference.

Manchester United has a lot of strong forwards, Lukaku is worth nearly 100 million, Sanchez used to be Arsenal's thigh, and Rashford is Manchester United's supernova.

Such a trio, with Pogba behind him, should have produced excellent chemistry.

But not at all.

Three, or four, can maximize their individual abilities, but the degree of meshing is insufficient.

Many of United's outstanding attacks this season have relied on individual brilliance from the summer tandem and the striker.

Purely in terms of the striker, Manchester United is really not as good as Liverpool.

In Mourinho's heart, Liverpool's forward trident is definitely at the top level in the world.

If he had to choose, he would even choose between the striker combination and the BBC.

Because Liverpool's forward line not only has the ability to score goals, but also has teamwork, but also has strong running ability and dedication.

Firmino, for example, is the most characteristic player of the three.

A lot of fans love Salah because of his speed and one-hit.

But Mourinho prefers Mane and likes Firmino the most.

Regarding Firmino's position on the pitch, many football experts refer to him as a "striker".

He was the first line of defence for Jurgen Klopp's pressing tactics throughout the pitch.

The ability to counter-attack on the spot, the risk of making the ball for teammates, the Brazilian center forward is at the top level.

Even the whole of Europe is difficult to find a second striker of this type.

The dexterous running and selfless ball making just now reflect his value.

In the following period, Manchester United attacked no less than Liverpool, but there were not many threatening attacks.

And Liverpool played well every time they attacked, repeatedly threatening Manchester United's goal.

In the 33rd minute of the game, the Liverpool trident once again teamed up to perform wonderfully.

This time it was Salah's fast breakthrough again, and after being intercepted by Xia Xing, he quickly knocked back.

Captain Jordan Henderson catches the ball.

He didn't stick to the ball and decisively passed through to Firmino.

The Brazilian striker retreats from the box to take the ball and calmly receives it.

Take control of it a little, quickly rub it up, and pass to the right side of the penalty area!

Salah rushed in and got his chance!

Under Xia Xing's blocking, he didn't have a chance to shoot, but he found the angle of the cross!

Xia Xing didn't dare to make a kick easily, after all, he might be awarded a penalty.

He can only expect his teammates to defend.

Salah crosses!

Firmino, who had just passed the ball, was already swimming in front of goal!

He's a sharp runner!

He looks tall, but he is very agile in running and positioning!

In the face of Smalling's marking, he stabbed his foot on the line of the small penalty area!

The ball is inserted into the bottom right corner of the goal!

"The ball is in!

"Wonderful fit!

"Firmino has made a meritorious service!

"2 to 0!

"Liverpool scored another goal!

"They extended their lead again!

"This goal is another wonderful combination of the front trident!

'Roberto Firmino plays the ball down the middle, passes to Salah, then turns and sprints into the box!

'Salah's pass was on point!

"Firmino's shot was crisp, unpretentious, but deadly!

"Wonderful!

'Although Mane was not directly involved in the goal,

'But his runs in midfield and insertions in the box,

"It also disrupted Manchester United's arrangement,

'It played a key role in the goal.

"I have to say that now Liverpool's forward trident,

"It's the perfect front line in my heart!" (End of chapter)
