On September 11, the fourth round of the Premier League finally came.

In this game, Leicester City travelled to Anfield to face Liverpool, an old acquaintance from last season.

It was also the team's last game before their Champions League debut, and in four days' time, they travel to Belgium to face League giants Club Brugge.

On the side of the court, before the game started, Klopp stopped Chen Yufeng and put his right hand on Chen Yufeng's shoulder.

"Back in the Premier League, boy, I thought you were going to take a few days off to celebrate your win."

Klopp pinched Chen Yufeng's arm, and then set his eyes on Chen Yufeng's captain's armband, jokingly: "Do you want to provoke me?" ”

"Why don't we sprinkle another handful of peppers on this hot game and create some conflicts, just like before."

"Hahaha......" Chen Yufeng heard the meaning of the words, laughed a few times, and then turned around and ran towards the court, making the final preparations for the game.

"That's nice, this player."

Behind him, Klopp kept staring at his No. 66 back, shaking his head and sighing: "If you are five years younger, you can definitely become the future right-wing core of the Red Army and create a red dynasty with us." ”

"Alas, age, age......"

"Beep!" Not long after, the referee blew the whistle for the opening of the game, and the players from both sides quickly entered the scramble.

It can be seen that the Liverpool players clearly came to the pitch with a vengeance.

They hope to take all three points against Leicester City in this game in the new season and get revenge!

Even the Belgian international Mignolet at this time laughed out loud after Chen Yufeng completed a shot: "A few more high-quality kicks!" You can't get past me with this kind of ball! ”

"You know, we're going to win today!"

Chen Yufeng didn't speak, and after laughing, he walked towards his position, not wasting much time.

Claudio Ranieri had said before the game that he would only play 45 minutes and that Albrighton would replace him at half-time.

This is to save the momentum for the game against Club Brugge in four days' time.

In the commentary seats on the side of the court, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu sat here, enthusiastically commenting on the audience in front of the TV.

"The game between the two sides has been going on for a while, and there have been three shots on goal, but they are not very threatening."

Zhan Jun turned his head to Zhang Lu and asked with a smile, "Teacher Zhang Lu thinks which team will have a better probability of winning today?" ”

"I think it's Liverpool, Liverpool's best form is obviously better, and the squad is more complete after the new season." Zhang Lu gave his own evaluation.

Zhan Jun still agreed with this evaluation, nodded and added: "Yes, Klopp can already play some of the things he wants, and in the first three games, Liverpool's performance is better than one game." ”

"At this pace, the goal of winning the league and cup may not be out of reach."

'The Reds fans can see hope for a resurgence and they will love their manager.

'Let's take a look at Liverpool's attack.'

“……”

The two of them are like this, chatting and commenting for the fans.

In their style, the fans who are engaged in watching the game still feel that time passes quickly.

"Liverpool's attacking chances, Coutinho, he did well at the start of the season!"

"Shoot from a distance! Off! ”

"It's a good attempt, so let's play more of this kind of ball! Look for confidence, look for the feeling of your feet, maybe the next foot will enter! ”

"Ah......" Zhang Lu occasionally answered.

"Leicester City! Mahrez's assault! Liverpool's players can't hold him a little, it's too flexible! ”

"One more long-range shot! And also! Pass to the back point! ”

"Chen Yufeng volleys! Hit high! ”

"Liverpool's goal is in danger, just a little bit, Leicester City can score a goal!"

"Chen Yufeng has scored five goals in the last three games and has one assist, and he will still be a key target for Liverpool today!"

"......" Zhang Lu nodded and agreed.

Everyone else is a sentence, he is indeed a word.

"I believe that after last season's miracle championship, Leicester City is no longer an underdog team in people's hearts, and this game against Liverpool may be called a strong conversation!"

"And this kind of strong dialogue, the birth of the first goal, is very important, and it also plays a decisive role in the final victory!"

Zhan Jun is still doing the commentary conscientiously, and the amount of words between the two is not in the same order of magnitude at all.

Perhaps, Sina Sports should take this into account when signing the commentary contract, pay Zhan Jun more salary, and pay Zhang Lu less.

"It's coming! Firmino! ”

"Push the far corner! The ball is in! Liverpool take a 1-0 lead! It was a crucial goal! ”

"In the thirty-seventh minute of the first half, Liverpool were ahead!"

"We see that Ranieri's expression is still relatively indifferent, this difficult game, maybe he is ready to give up, he is going to stay in the Champions League."

"Chen Yufeng was not in very good form today, after winning the UEFA Player of the Year, every time he got the ball, more than three Liverpool players would come to defend."

'In this situation, maybe he needs to play better to be able to score.'

This strong match, the scene is still very exciting, Liverpool is very suppressive, has been around Leicester City's half of the high pressing, as far as possible to keep the fire in Leicester City's dangerous area burning.

Leicester City, on the other hand, are still carrying out their counter-attacking tactics. With plenty of space for Liverpool, they can occasionally create plenty of threat on counter-attacks.

However, the defensive players of both teams played well today, basically no mistakes, and did not give too many chances.

Firmino's goal was still thanks to the team's very good frontcourt cooperation, and he fought his way out.

As the minutes passed, Leicester City gradually showed its decline, and everyone's desire to win seemed to have weakened.

'The first half is almost over, will there be any goals?"

"It's still Coutinho who carries the ball on the wing, will he still cut inside!"

"A change in rhythm! Coutinho has another kick! ”

Schmeichel saves the ball! Shoot beautifully, keep it wonderful! ”

"Firmino! Shoot! ”

"This ball is here! Two to zero! Roberto Firmino scored a brace! ”

Zhan Jun's excited voice continued to sound, and Firmino on the court spread his hands and ran to the sidelines and danced a samba dance, looking very good.

The Leicester players looked at each other a few times and bowed their heads.

The game ended quickly, and after a fifteen-minute break, N'Golo Kante, Vardy and Chen Yufeng were substituted and sat on the bench to watch the game.

Klose, Albrighton, Ndidi took to the pitch.

Ranieri looks to be on the verge of giving up on the game, and he has little hope for the final result.

"Bang!"

In the seventy-first minute of the game, Liverpool scored again.

Philippe Coutinho's corner caused chaos in Leicester's penalty area, and it was Roberto Firmino who stabbed the ball into the net with a brilliant flying stab.

Three to zero!

Roberto Firmino scored a hat-trick!

Towards the end of the game, it was Leicester who reaped the rewards on the counter-attack when Riyad Mahrez broke through Liverpool's penalty area and fired a volley into the far corner.

Three to one!

"Beep! Beep! Beep ——! ”

After this goal, the referee also blew the whistle for the end of the game.

Leicester City swallowed their first defeat of the new season when they lost to Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool and were avenged by their opponents.

“Yeahhhh……！” The huge Anfield stadium erupted in cheers as it was the Liverpool fans celebrating the victory.

'You played very well, you can understand the rotation loss, and you're going to be in the Champions League in four days' time.

During the final handshake between the two managers, Klopp shook Ranieri's right hand and smiled and comforted: "Hopefully on the day of the showdown at the King Power Stadium, we can all play at the best level." ”

"No problem."

Ranieri smiled faintly, then turned to walk.

In any case, after losing, the mood of everyone in Leicester City must be relatively average.

The players didn't have a shower in the showers near the dressing room and boarded the bus for the return trip to Leicestershire.

After getting on the bus, Ranieri also stood up, as if trying to tell something, "If memory serves, the last time we lost was against Arsenal last season. ”

'We haven't tasted defeat for a long time before and we tend to score more than two goals per game.

"But that's what we all felt in today's game."

As the bus passed Anfield, Ranieri pointed to the magnificent stadium and said: "I think it will make it clear to everyone that the Premier League is not that easy to play. ”

"Just because we won the Premier League last season doesn't mean we're still in the top four or six this season."

"These big clubs, with the largest number of fans in the world, the most glorious history, they have more money to buy people, and they have a better foundation to attract players to join."

"And we, we should recognize our own situation, we are still a small club, still a group of grassroots."

"This season, it's inevitable to lose on multiple fronts, and everyone has probably tasted that feeling many times, and there is no such thing as invincibility in the world of football."

'Even if we have Yufeng, if we have Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and so on, even if they can score 50 goals in a season combined.

"But this may not be exchanged for fifty points."

Ranieri shook his head and sighed a little at the end, "There's still a long way to go, boys, I hope we can play well in the Champions League group stage in four days." ”

The players still kept their heads down and didn't speak.

Chen Yufeng felt that he needed to say something, and stood up in the back row, "It's not terrible to lose, no one doesn't lose." ”

"Even the Cosmos team Barcelona back then, and the current Galaxy Battleship Real Madrid, may lose to a small team."

'We lost to Liverpool and that's not a big shame.

"Let's play the next game, the league has only just started the fourth round, which doesn't mean anything."

"Be yourself, come back to the end of the season and see where we've come this season, and if everyone can give their all, then I'm sure we'll be thankful after the season."

"Come on, Leicester!"

His words didn't make the players look up, but everyone actually took it to heart.

Perhaps, when some important moment comes, they will think it all through.

What Chen Yufeng has to do is just to give them a wake-up call.

As the days passed, the Leicester players became much more silent in the next few days of training.

It seems that this failure still hit the self-confidence of many people.
