323rd Merseyside Derby

In European football, red and blue are always easy to become sharp contrasting colors. Red and blue derbies can be seen everywhere in football. It is said that red and blue have CP since ancient times.

The Manchester derby between Manchester United and Manchester City, the London derby between Arsenal and Chelsea, the Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton, the Rome derby between Rome and Lazio, the Munich derby between Bayern Munich and Munich 1860.

Even AC Milan and Inter Milan, formerly known as Europe's No. 1 city derby, are red-black and blue-black confrontations respectively.

In short, the red-blue confrontation in football can be seen everywhere, and the fans of this team attach great importance to it.

On September 27th, the Merseyside Derby arrived, and the atmosphere in Liverpool became hotter.

In Liverpool, the fans here are often either red or blue.

Whether it is a red Liverpool fan or a blue Everton fan, they all have a firm belief in their team, and their homes all have their own team flags.

These team flags may be collected at other times, but on the day of the Merseyside Derby, they will definitely hang their own colors in front of their houses.

So on Derby Day, red and blue flags can be seen all over Liverpool.

At noon local time in the UK, the first Merseyside derby of the season is about to start at Anfield.

Although the Merseyside derby has always been popular, Everton has been sinking for many years, and its strength has long been far behind Liverpool.

Since the establishment of the Premier League, Everton has only won two games at Anfield, which shows that there is a big gap in strength between the two sides.

In the last 15 Merseyside derbies, Liverpool have only lost once.

Although the gap in strength is obvious, Everton is trying its best to beat Liverpool in every derby.

This time, of course, there is no surprise.

At Anfield, the stadium announcer was chanting every Liverpool player who entered the field.

"... Our Super Bruce... e!!"

When Jackie Lee entered the arena, the cheers he got were the loudest.

Although Liverpool's overall performance is relatively mediocre at present, Li Chenglong's performance is recognized, with 7 goals in 5 games.

In this game, Rogers arranged the strongest lineup to play. There is no doubt that even if the Champions League game is in the middle of last week, it will not affect this game.

Speaking of which, for Liverpool, the importance of the same-city derby is no worse than a Champions League group match.

Liverpool is still using the 442 recently,

Goalkeeper: Mignolet

Defenders: Moreno, Lovren, Skrtel, Manquillo;

Midfielders: Henderson, Gerrard, Coutinho, Lallana;

Forwards: Jackie Lee, Sterling.

Slovakia defender Martin Skrtel returned from injury in time, which is good news for Liverpool.

Everton has arranged a 433 formation.

Goalkeeper: Tim Howard;

Defenders: Leighton Bynes, Jagielka, Stones, Tony Hibbert;

Midfielders: McCarthy, Besic, Gareth Barry;

Forwards: Naismith, Lukaku, Miralas.

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of the home fans, the 221st Merseyside derby in English football history officially started.

As soon as the game started, Liverpool, who were at home, took the lead in launching the offensive.

But Everton was also decisive, using their most common methods to stop Liverpool.

At the beginning, Jackie Chan tried to dribble the ball and passed the opponent's Besic in the midfield, but Gareth Barry immediately shoveled.

Li Chenglong had jumped up and dodged in time, but was still brought down by the opponent.

Li Chenglong was put down, turned around and looked at the referee with his hands outstretched. This is a very obvious dangerous move.

At this time, Barry also said viciously to Jackie Lee: "Boy, welcome to the Merseyside Derby. This is a gift for you."

Seeing that the opponent continued to speak harshly after releasing the shovel, the whole Liverpool team became restless. Only then did Atkinson come over slowly and gave Barry a yellow card.

Sure enough, he is indeed one of the famous Premier League four blinds. If Gary hadn't talked too much, Atkinson might not have come to show a yellow card.

Although Everton gave Li Chenglong a slap in the face at the beginning, it did not intimidate him at all, which would only make Li Chenglong more excited.

Just like what some movie characters say: You resist, the more you resist, the more excited I am! !

In the 3rd minute, Sterling made a breakthrough from the right and sent a low-quality cross. Lee Chenglong was flanked by Jagielka and Stones on the edge of the penalty area, and was almost forcibly dragged by the two. step back.

But Li Chenglong had an idea. During the process of retreating, he lifted his right foot into the air, just hooked the ball with his toes, let the ball pass through his toes, took off again and drew an arc, and successfully passed the top of the three people. Fly to the point behind the goal.

"Bruce, he was defended by Stones and Jagiel. This should be a foul."

"Beautiful~~~Bruce~~~Very beautiful pass!!"

"Later~~~ Gerald has a chance!!"

Li Chenglong sent an imaginative pass despite being so strictly guarded, which completely exceeded everyone's expectations.

Gerrard, who was just running normally, didn't expect the ball to fly like this, but he didn't miss this good opportunity, and directly met the ball with his forehead. After the ball was strengthened, it passed Tim Howard's body side, and hit the net with his head.

"Goooooooooooal~~~~~~~~~"

"Only 3 minutes into the game, Liverpool took the lead in breaking Everton's goal, and they completed a beautiful opening goal!!"

"This goal is mainly due to Bruce's beautiful pass. His pass is amazing, full of infinite imagination, a pass like a work of art."

"Of course, Steven's header is also very accurate, this is his tenth goal in the Merseyside derby, which is also very cause for celebration."

Liverpool took the lead in the opening game. Both the commentators and the fans were shouting the name of Bruce Lee. He was more popular than Gerrard who scored the goal.

Gerrard, who scored the goal, also rushed over to celebrate with Li Chenglong in a hug. The two stood shoulder to shoulder with each other and stood together on the sidelines to accept the cheers of the fans.

After the celebration was over, Jackie Lee deliberately walked up to Gareth Barry and said to him pretendingly, "That was also my meeting ceremony just now, how do you feel?"

Barry's complexion was not very good, he seemed a little aggrieved, but his mouth was still firm: "It's not your goal, what's so amazing?"

Well, you wait for me.

Li Chenglong cursed secretly in his heart, but he didn't say it, because Atkinson had already walked over and warned Li Chenglong not to provoke his opponent.

The fans at the scene immediately booed Atkinson. This guy has a brain hole, right? This is Anfield and Liverpool's home court, but he has a faint intention of favoring the visiting team Everton.

Liverpool got off to a perfect start, which greatly boosted the team's morale. In the next 20 minutes or so, Liverpool basically played against the opponent.

In the 8th minute, Henderson sent a through pass. Lee Chenglong caught the ball in the penalty area and hit the goal, but Howard bravely saved the ball. Sterling followed up with a supplementary shot and hit the ball directly into Howard's arms.

The happy boy seems to be very happy recently, and can often make some happy highlights.

But seriously, he is already the only important player in the Liverpool team, at least on the offensive end.

In the 13th minute, Coutinho created a free kick in a good position in the frontcourt. Lee Chenglong's free kick also bypassed the wall, but the angle was not good enough, and Howard saved the ball.

In the 19th minute, Jackie Chan's long-range shot hit Jagielka's arm. The Liverpool team immediately complained to the referee, but Atkinson did not approve.

Liverpool took the full initiative in the opening 20 minutes, but they can't keep attacking, otherwise everyone will be unable to stand up.

But as soon as Liverpool slowed down, Everton equalized the score.

In the 25th minute, Everton finally recovered from being chased and beaten, launched a wave of offense, and then their central defender Jagielka pressed into the frontcourt and played a beautiful long kick. Shoot the world wave.

No one expected that Everton would easily equalize the score.

But things like long-range world waves are really bugs, and they rule everything on the court.

No matter how good you are at playing, I can teach you how to be a human being in just one world wave.

"This Merseyside derby is indeed full of highlights. The two goals of both sides are very exciting, which is a feast for the eyes." The England commentator also bragged at the right time.
