Chapter 284
"Kante! Beautiful! Clean defense, no foul! He intercepted the ball and Manquillo received the ball... Then he quickly moved... Royce passed the ball diagonally to find an opening - Lin!"

There were cheers in the stands, and the cheers were getting louder and louder.
Amid huge cheers, Lin Yi caught the ball.

Facing Sevilla center back Andreoli who came up to defend him, Lin Yi made a move to force a breakthrough from the outside. He moved the football forward with the outside instep of his right foot, and then accelerated.
Andreoli quickly ran back.

Just now, Sevilla's left back Tremulanas assisted and was still on his way back to defense.

Andreoli can only fill in from the center back position.

What he fears most is Lin Yi cutting inside.

After all, there are few people in the middle of Sevilla.

But now that he saw that Lin Yi was taking the outside line, he felt more relieved.

He adjusted his mentality and kept up with Lin Yi...

But just when Lin Yi caught up with the football, the heel of his right foot suddenly knocked the football inside.
At the same time, Lin Yi stopped suddenly, changed direction, and turned around!

Andreoli was caught off guard and couldn't stop the car at all. He forced the car to brake suddenly, but was still carried forward by the inertia.

He reached out his hand in despair, trying to hold Lin Yi.

Lin Yi, however, had already completed all the movements of turning around and starting again, leaving him behind.

"Forest--"

This sound was not shouted by the on-site commentator, but by the Liverpool fans in the stands.
After Lin Yi suddenly cut inside, another central defender Kolodejchak who was originally guarding the center had to rush to block Lin Yi.

Facing his block, Lin Yi raised his left foot and made a move to shoot from a long distance. Kolodejchak quickly reached the end, trying to block Lin Yi's shot with his body.

As a result, Lin Yi dunked the football with his left foot and broke through directly from the ribs of the penalty area.
"Lin! Beautiful breakthrough, he entered the penalty area! The current situation is simply too easy for him. Sevilla certainly did not expect that their counterattack would be interrupted so quickly, so that their backcourt There are so few defensive players."

After Lin Yi broke through Kolodejchak's interception, Sevilla goalkeeper Rico chose to abandon the goal.

Lin Yi raised his left foot again and made a shooting motion.

Rico fell to the ground to save. Lin Yi swung his left foot down but did not shoot the football out. Instead, he stepped on the football with his sole and pulled the ball to his right foot, knocking Rico down.

Next, Lin Yi kicked him with his right heel!
Although the angle is not big anymore, he is still sure to send the football into the goal.

Sure enough, the football rolled across the goal line without any suspense, and Krechowiak, who was chasing all the way, just made a sliding shovel at this time. He didn't shovel anything except air and turf...

"Lin Linlin - 2:0! Liverpool leads Sevilla 2:0. Not long after the second half has just started, Sevilla has already made things worse!"

After scoring the goal, Lin Yi did not run to the corner flag area or the coaching bench. Instead, he turned around and ran all the way back. On the way, some teammates wanted to come up and hug him, but he used his speed to throw them away. He just He ran in front of Kanter.

He pointed at Kanter.

Kanter was a little stunned. After scoring the goal, he was very happy, but when Lin Yi ran all the way and finally ran in front of him, he was stunned. He didn't expect that Lin Yi would run after scoring the goal. Hug myself from so far away...

Next, Lin Yi had hugged him.

Other teammates also swarmed up.

Because we were so close this time, even goalkeeper Simon Mignolet ran out from the door and joined everyone in the celebration.

As for Sevilla, everyone was stunned.

They really wanted to win this championship, but they didn't expect that they were already two goals behind at the beginning of the second half - completely beyond everyone's expectations before the game. How could this look like an opponent of the same level?

Reyes, in particular, stared blankly at the Liverpool players hugging each other.

What he was looking at was not Lin Yi, but Kanter who was hugged by Lin Yi.

The rookie he looked down on before was the one who stole his own ball just now, thus providing Liverpool with such a chance to score...

If he hadn't been intercepted by Kante, Sevilla might have scored the goal now.
Reyes clenched his fists reluctantly when he thought of this.

Oh shit!

Lin Yi, who was holding Kanter, rubbed Kanter's black head vigorously, and then said to him: "Good defense, man!"

This offense was only possible because Kanter successfully defended Reyes, and of course he had to thank Kanter.

But this is not the only reason. Lin Yi sees the team's hope of defending the Champions League in Kanter's performance.

Lin Yi was worried before that Kante's training time was too short and he was worried that something would happen to him. After all, Liverpool is the defending champion of the Champions League and does not have much time to train Kante. Unexpectedly, this guy's adaptability is so good. Think about this year The original dark horse champion Leicester City's ability to carve out a path in the Premier League has a lot to do with the addition of Kante.

Lin Yi was very happy that the club successfully intercepted the incident.

Kanter performs well, so he will feel more at ease when facing opponents next - although every time the team encounters a problem, he can solve it.But if the teammates behind him always lose the ball, it is also a huge burden for him personally.Who wants to carry a heavy burden on the road all the time?Everyone hopes to travel lightly, and Lin Yi is no exception.

When everyone thinks Lin Yi is the patron saint of Liverpool, Lin Yi also hopes that his teammates can be more powerful.

After losing the ball, Sevilla played in a panic.

They were completely suppressed by Liverpool on the scene.

In the 607th minute, Sevilla's goal was lost again.

This time it was not Lin Yi who scored the goal, but Firmino. After Firmino cut in from the wing, he succeeded in taking a long shot. Rico couldn't make the save and could only watch the football fly into the far end of the goal. …

"3:0! This game has ended early! Judging from the scene, Liverpool completely suppressed Sevilla. It is very normal for them to have the current score."

"Liverpool's recruitment work this summer was very successful. Although Sterling was let go, judging from the team's performance, the strength has not been affected. The defending champion is still a super strong team, and the Europa League champion seems to have no chance. There is no way to fight back, maybe the Champions League's group of death is for the other three teams."

The TV broadcast gave Unai Emery a close-up shot. Unai Emery stood on the sidelines, seemingly in a daze, looking at the stadium with slightly dull eyes.He probably never would have imagined that Kante, who was supposed to be Liverpool's weakness in this game, would perform so consistently.Sevilla originally targeted him with a strong attack, but had no results and had to make temporary adjustments. However, by that time they were already two goals behind, and Sevilla had already lost in terms of morale.

Sevilla finally scored a goal in the game, but this goal had no impact on the entire result.

The final score of this game was 4:1. In this Super Cup, Champions League champion Liverpool defeated Europa League champion Sevilla by a surprising score.

Many people must have thought that Liverpool will win. This can also be seen from the odds offered by bookmakers. Sevilla's disadvantage is obvious.

But I am afraid that few people can imagine that Liverpool can beat Sevilla with such a big score and such an easy attitude...

This is something that surprised many people.

For Liverpool, this may be just a mediocre victory. At most, it will give them another championship honor.

For them, the upcoming Premier League may be more important. Although they won the first Premier League championship last season, as a Premier League giant, only one Premier League trophy is not enough, and the team’s dominance also starts from the league championship. From what I can tell, none of them have won three consecutive championships, and they are embarrassed to say that their team has dominated the entire league.

As for the championship before the Premier League reform, that is all in the past. Liverpool needs to re-establish its own dynasty in the Premier League.

And Liverpool's next opponent is none other than Manchester United!
Manchester United's performance this season is not very bad. Although it did not enter the top four in the league, it still clung to the first tier. However, compared with Manchester United's investment during the transfer period, this result is unqualified.

Under such circumstances, Van Gaal, as the coach, also received a lot of criticism.

But this game is their home court, so Liverpool is not easy to play.

Moreover, after this game, the Champions League group stage will follow, so some media speculated that Liverpool may strategically abandon this game. After all, Liverpool is now the only team with a complete victory.

However, before the game against Manchester United, Liverpool announced their 18-man roster, with all the main players included.

Klopp also seemed very cautious when facing Manchester United. He said at the pre-match press conference: "I don't care about the Champions League game now. Our opponent is Manchester United, so I only pay attention to the league opponents."

However, after the game started, in just 3 minutes, Manchester United gave Liverpool a blow, setting the tone for this double red meeting!

After Depay got the ball on the left side of Liverpool's penalty area, he turned around and shot, but the football just went wide.

This was the first shot from both sides, and it was Manchester United who fired the first shot.

Then Liverpool took the initiative, but Manchester United's defense has always been very solid, and Liverpool has never had a good chance.

Klopp looked serious on the coaching bench.

Manchester United is obviously well prepared. At least their head coach Louis van Gaal has indeed put in the effort to study Liverpool's recent games.

Therefore, facing Liverpool's offensive, Manchester United's defense was very solid and did not leave any chance for Liverpool.

Liverpool's ball possession rate once reached 70.00%, but the scene was very boring. They did not convert this 70.00% ball possession rate into even a goal.

Liverpool tried their best, but Manchester United's defense was very well organized and did not leave many chances for Liverpool.

Many times, players like Salah who are good at breaking through have no room to break through. After receiving the ball from the wing, he either directly passes the ball, or passes the ball back to his teammates, and then turns back to look for opportunities. .

Even if there are some shooting opportunities, it is often difficult to threaten Manchester United's goal. Either the shot is high and missed, or it is hugged by Manchester United goalkeeper Dehra.

For example, in the 209th minute of No. [-], Henderson made a pass from the left. When Firmino shot from the center, he hit the ball high because of Carrick's pressing.

Not long after, when Manchester United stabilized their defense, they gradually began to exert their offensive strength - after all, it was their home court, and of course they could not be satisfied with a 0:0 draw if they wanted to avoid relegation.

Depay once again threatened.

He reached the penalty area after receiving a through ball from his teammate Mata, then beautifully dunked past Lovren and shot.

Fortunately, Mignolet reacted in time and held the football in his arms.

"Depay! This is his second shot in this game, and it is more threatening than the last time! Although Liverpool's previous offensive was stronger, in terms of threat level, Manchester United's two shots are more threatening... "

Not long after, Manchester United player Bastian Schweinsteiger shot low with his right foot from 22 meters in the middle, and the ball was picked up by Mignolet.

Two minutes later, Liverpool tried to launch a counterattack, but Firmino fell to the ground under the attack of Bastian Schweinsteiger and Carrick. The referee did not make any penalty.

Firmino lay on the ground for a while before getting up. The Theater of Dreams burst into boos, mocking Firmino for diving.

However, the slow motion shows that Carrick did push someone with his hand. The player did not fall hard enough, which does not mean that the opponent did not foul.

Except for Manchester United's counterattack, the entire first half was generally dull. Neither side had particularly good opportunities and failed to produce surprising coordination and shots.

Liverpool, which originally seemed to be in the ascendant, this time had no chance of defeating Manchester United.

As the core of the team, Lin Yi is also very restricted by Manchester United. No matter where he appears, Manchester United players will immediately appear around him to force his passing routes and space to get the ball.

Just like that, the first half was about to end, and the score was still 0:0.

Just when everyone thought the first half would end with this score, things changed suddenly on the field!
No.40 In the second minute, Manchester United launched a high-quality attack. Mata passed the football to the goal on the right. After the football fell to the front point, Martial received it under the attack of Royce and Henderson. The ball was passed again near the baseline.

Depay, who has been active since the start of the game, jumped high from the back point, overpowered Skrtel who returned to defend in front of the goal, and headed the goal!

Mignolet failed to save his team this time...the ball flew into the goal!

"Depay! He finally scored! He broke the deadlock for Manchester United!"

The Dream Theater burst into cheers.

Manchester United's players celebrated the goal with cheers, while Liverpool's players looked a little frustrated.
