Chapter 276: Counterattack

When the Manchester United players saw Kintag's gesture of pressing down with one hand, they all immediately understood that this was a signal for Kintag to let them attack!

All Manchester United players are prepared in their hearts, especially the fast horses Mahrez and Salah, who are also prepared in advance, ready to speed up and counterattack quickly.

And when Kintag came to the sidelines, Rogers also caught Rogers' attention. He saw Kintag making another palm-pressing movement, and he immediately felt disdainful: It's this time, let the players stabilize and continue to defend, look Come to this game, you really intend to get only one point. But don't worry, I, Rogers, will definitely let you get no points!

Rodgers shouted to Gerrard on the field and asked him to organize the midfield line to continue to press and attack Manchester United.

At this time, 53 minutes into the second half of the game, Liverpool's three midfielders and two full-backs all pressed up. Except for the two central defenders, almost all Liverpool players came to the opponent's half.

Rogers found that during this period of time, some of Manchester United's players had become fatigued, especially the forward Salah, who had been returning to defense just now to help the midfielder defend, and he also began to pant during this period, returning near the center circle. Not going; the same is true for Mahrez on the wing. He even bent down to rest constantly, as if he was seriously exhausted. Liverpool's right back Flanagan broke through his first line of defense very easily.

Rodgers thought about the current situation, Kintag will definitely see it in his eyes. If his guess is correct, Kintag will replace Salah and Valencia next to strengthen the midfield defense; Off Mahrez, then put on a defensive left midfielder like Ashley Young to assist left back Alonso. I must take advantage of this opportunity and seize the time to break Manchester United's goal.

Rodgers kept calling his players off the court, telling them to press forward boldly and try to score goals earlier.

At this time, 55 minutes into the game.

The core of Liverpool's midfield playmaker is still Gerrard. Although he is 34 years old and not as energetic as he was back then, he is still a well-deserved spiritual leader in this Liverpool team. His advancement, organization and long-range shots in the frontcourt still threaten Manchester United's goal.

This time he got the ball in midfield again and pushed forward all the way. Manchester United midfielder Nainggolan actively went up to grab the ball, and the two became entangled. But what Nainggolan didn't expect was that Gerrard didn't lose in the physical confrontation!

Nainggolan knew that behind him was Carrick with poor defensive ability, and behind him were two central defenders. If Gerrard was allowed to rush in, it would be too dangerous for the goal. Stay here, even if it is a foul!

Thinking of this, Nainggolan stretched out his hand and pulled gently, Gerrard lost his balance and fell to the ground. But Nainggolan just wanted to clear the siege with a big foot, and suddenly the referee stopped the game and awarded a free kick.

The referee was right next to the two of them just now, and had a good view, so he could see very clearly. The new 81 Chinese website is updated the fastest Mobile terminal: https:/

Gerrard got a free kick about 40 meters outside the penalty area, but the ball was too far away and the angle was too straight. It was not a good choice to hit the goal directly or pass it to the penalty area.

So Gerrard gave up the penalty and gave it to Joe Allen. He and Henderson both pressed on it.

Ready to respond.

Joe Allen looked at the positions of Liverpool's offensive players. He saw Gerrard waving slightly at him, and Joe Allen immediately understood. He stepped back, made an illusion that he wanted to pass a high-altitude ball into the penalty area, and then suddenly passed the ball low and straight, looking for Gerrard in front of the penalty area.

But just when he passed the ball, someone beside Gerrard started ahead of time. He quickly rushed out of the crowd, blocked the path of Gerrard and the ball, and intercepted the ball!

It was Carrick who stole the ball!

As a teammate of the national team, Carrick is very familiar with Gerrard's playing style. He has cooperated with Gerrard before, passing the ball from the midfield position, and then Gerrard responds from outside the penalty area. After receiving the ball, Gerrard Ladd turned around and took a long shot, all in one go. He has seen this attack more than once in the England national team. So today, Carrick guessed that Gerrard is likely to still use this method.

He really guessed right.

When Carrick broke the ball, two players on the Manchester City field started to move forward at the same time-Salah and Mahrez. They both went straight into the Liverpool penalty area at an extremely fast speed!

Carrick had already observed the position of his teammates on the field just now, and now he even just glanced forward, and directly passed a long pass. The ball crossed half the field and directly found Mahrez on the left!

Because Icardi also returned to the Manchester United penalty area to participate in the defense just now, so the Liverpool people did not realize that they would be in danger in the backcourt. And Salah and Mahrez were bending over and panting just now, and they couldn't run at all. But looking at them now, how do they look exhausted?

The two ran wildly, and Mahrez accurately stopped Carrick's pass, and he took the ball along the left lane; and Salah in the center also moved forward with him and made a good response.

"Carrick cut the ball and he found Mahrez with a long pass!"

"This is an opportunity! Both Mahrez and Salah are rushing forward! Liverpool's midfield line has pressed the Manchester United half, and they can't come back! They only have two central defenders left!"

"2 against 2! Liverpool is in danger!"

"Mahrez is walking on flat ground. There is an open field in front of him. Liverpool right back Flanagan is desperately chasing back, but there is still a big gap between him and Mahrez!"

"Liverpool's two central defenders made a division of labor, Agger stepped aside to block Mahrez, and Skrtel defended Salah!"

"Mahrez passed Ag! Ag was like a wooden pillar in front of Mahrez, and Mahrez broke through in an instant! Mahrez has entered an invincible state with the combined speed!"

"Mahrez continues to cut! Skrtel's position starts to move towards him!"

"Mahrez passes to Salah! Salah takes the ball into the box!"

"Skrtel was overwhelmed by the teasing of two people!"

"Salah's powerful shot! Goal!!! Man Utd beat Liverpool's goal! Mignolet can't stop the shot!"

"1 to 0! Manchester United led the score! No one would have thought that Manchester United, which was suppressed by Liverpool for half the game, would use a chance to counterattack and make a fatal blow. The offensive efficiency is extremely high!"
