Chapter 1021 Everyone Laughed

When the players from both sides walked out of the locker room and met in the tunnel at the same time, Klopp's eyes flickered and he looked carefully. Well, Manchester United had not made any substitutions. He turned his eyes and bumped into Sun Wu who was doing the same thing.

Sun Wu coughed twice and slowed down his steps. Klopp hesitated and slowed down, and the two fell to the back.

"Jurgen, you already won the FA Cup last season."

"Guardiola also won three consecutive League Cups."

Sun Wu was choked, "Manchester United's physical fitness will not be a disadvantage."

"Yes, but there are two more double red games later." Klopp nodded, "So I don't hope either."

Sun Wu breathed a sigh of relief and quickened his pace. As long as they reached unity on this point, it would be fatal to have a draw in this semi-final and then rematch.

Klopp also quickened his pace, suddenly approached and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with Falcao?"

"I'm sick. I have a bad cold." Sun Wu replied sincerely.

Klopp was stunned for a moment and asked: "What about Harry Kane?"

"There is an injury. Although the injury is not serious, we have him on the bench just to be on the safe side."

Klopp glanced at Sun Wu suspiciously, his face clearly saying "I don't believe it!"

You can't blame Klopp for being suspicious. Harry Kane's inclusion in the squad shows that his physical condition meets the playing standards, and Griezmann's performance in the first half is obvious to all. He never believes that Sun Wu can't see it, but why is it so special? Rizman hasn't been substituted yet?

Sun Wu rolled his eyes speechlessly. These days, no one else would believe an honest person like me!

In this world, people's hearts are not as old as they used to be!

"Both sides did not make substitutions. In this critical match, both Sun Wu and Klopp chose to stop quietly." Halfway through Zhan Jun's words, the live broadcaster gave a close-up shot of Harry Kane on the bench, and then A shot of Griezmann.

"Harry Kane has not played in two consecutive games. He performed well against Bayern Munich." Zhang Lu was a little confused, "Is he injured?"

In fact, Sun Wu really didn't lie before. Although Harry Kane has recovered from his injury, Dr. Swale strongly recommended not to let him play.

Otherwise, there is a high chance that the old injury will recur in the last few games of the season.

Sun Wu already has very few system points, and he really doesn't want to give Harry Kane another medical card, which makes Griezmann the only candidate for center.

"Okay, the second half of the game has officially begun." Zhan Jun paused for a moment, "Firmino directly passed the ball to Bailly Bailly on the back line with a long pass."

"It's the same old routine from the first half again." Zhang Lu grinned.

Manchester United and Liverpool are both teams in the Premier League and even in Europe that are famous for their strong attack power and beautiful playing style. Today's performance is really shocking.

The situation in the second half basically inherited the first half, with high-intensity pressing in the midfield, and the four defensive midfielders were still the protagonists. After getting the ball, they rarely passed it back, and usually sent it directly forward.

Both sides are engaged in pressing defense, hoping to quickly find holes in the opponent's defense after stealing the ball in the midfield or take advantage of the opponent's defender's possible mistakes and loss of position.

The reason is very simple. Both sides deployed heavy troops on defense and passed the ball back to reorganize. It is difficult to find and exploit the gaps in the opponent's defense.

However, Sun Wu was keenly aware that compared with the first half, Liverpool left back Robertson began to make more forward thrusts, while Piszczek, the right back on the other side, reduced the number of forward thrusts.

Sun Wu glanced at McFerran on the sidelines, hesitated, reached out and pressed down, making a motionless gesture.

"Today's Double Red will have too many surprises, no goals, no penalties," Zhan Jun said with a hint of regret: "There are no yellow cards even now?!"

The corner of Zhang Lu's mouth twitched, this guy really has a crow's mouth!

In the 58th minute, Henderson and Fabinho had a confrontation in the midfield that made onlookers grin. The former fell down wailing, and the latter felt uncomfortable. He jumped two steps on one foot and then sat on the lawn to cover his head. Touching the ankle.

This kind of rivalry is so normal in the game, so normal that neither Henderson nor Fabinho complained. Moreover, both sides deployed heavy troops in the midfield today, so the possibility of collision is very high.

But Piszczek, who was closest to the incident, jumped out and complained to the referee about Fabinho's foul.

Lucas, who was running over, got angry when he heard this. He sprinted in front of the referee and glared at Piszczek. The Polish defender did not stop. After a slight contact between the two, Piszczek screamed and fell to the ground.

Sun Wu looked at it and laughed, what is this?

To give an inappropriate example, it would be like Zhang Guoshi watching the movie directed by Bi in the cinema.

Piszczek's clever performance this time can be called a textbook, but it is a negative example

Not to mention Sun Wu laughed, even the referee Atkinson laughed, but the problem was that no one else laughed.

Seeing Piszczek falling to the ground from a distance, Coutinho, Firmino, Depay, and Robertson all ran over, because the angry Lucas was furious at the Polish defender on the ground.

Seeing Lucas being surrounded, Manchester United players also gathered around, and the scene immediately became commotion.

The boos in the stands became louder and louder, and Mortensen smiled and said: "This is the double red meeting. If there is no goal, at least there must be a commotion."

Klopp frowned on the sidelines and cursed Piszczek in his mind. He had told him many times before the game not to cause trouble. Uncle Zha knew very well that if there was any trouble, Sun Wu would probably benefit from it.

This is an experience Klopp has learned through so many painful lessons.

So when there was a commotion, Klopp immediately went to look for Sun Wu. Uh, where did he go? Why can't I find it? ?

The assistant coach on the side pushed Klopp and twisted his mouth. The latter looked around and realized that Sun Wu had run to the sidelines and was discussing something with the assistant coach.

"Substitute now?" McFerran frowned and said, "We won't gain much if we continue fighting like this."

Sun Wu shook his head first, and then nodded.

He shook his head to indicate that there would be no substitutions for the time being, and nodded to agree with McFerran's point of view.

Sun Wu ran up and down a lot today, but he was never able to create any good opportunities. On the one hand, it was because Henderson and N'Zongzi performed well as a pair of defensive midfielders, and Coutinho would come back to harass the defense. On the other hand, It is also because of Manchester United's double midfielder that Kanter and Fabinho are lackluster in offense. The latter has the ability to dispatch, but has little chance to perform in positional offense.

Substitutions are certain, but the reason why they are not being substituted for the time being is because Sun Wu wants to see what cards Klopp will play.

But soon, Sun Wu had to make a substitution.

After the riot subsided, Piszczek received a yellow card and Klopp immediately replaced the Pole with Alexander-Arnold.

Three minutes later, it was Arnold's aggressive advance that suddenly cut inside, inducing Fabinho to commit a foul, and the Brazilian midfielder twisted the ankle that had just been injured on his opponent's foot.

In the 63rd minute, Manchester United used their first substitution.

In such an important and crucial game, Sun Wu did not choose Herrera, Milner, or Lingard, but chose Darren Fletcher, the only veteran besides De Gea during the Ferguson era.
