Chapter 451: Buzzer-beating goal, another 9320 miracle!

There is still a big difference between Guardiola's style and Klopp's style, although both of them are currently playing a pressing attack.

But there is a very obvious difference. Guardiola's team uses passing to mobilize the opponent's defense and find mistakes.

Klopp's tactic is to use active running to create a numerical advantage in local areas, artificially create mistakes for the opponent, and then seize the opponent's mistakes to counterattack.

When these two tactics collide, it is like Mars hitting the Earth, causing a devastating earthquake.

The pace of the game was very fast, with the ball constantly switching back and forth between the two teams.

After Liverpool replaced three substitutes, they immediately increased their pressure on Manchester City's defense players.

Under the opponent's crazy pressing, it became very difficult for Manchester City to pass the ball, and they were almost intercepted by the opponent several times.

Not only that, even if the ball is successfully handed to Kroos, it does not mean that it is completely safe.

Liverpool's midfielders and forwards will immediately surround Kroos and not give him the opportunity to organize calmly.

Under the opponent's crazy pressing, Manchester City's players in the midfield and backcourt were forced to pass the ball with one foot and could not do any sticking to the ball. Otherwise, the opponent would most likely seize the opportunity to launch a very threatening counterattack.

However, Liverpool's powerful pressure is based on the players' strenuous running and large-scale personnel investment.

Once their physical strength decreases, the effectiveness of this tactic will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, if the formation is pressed too far forward, it is easy for the opponent to counterattack, so they need a central defender with very strong personal ability to act as a sweeper.

Originally, Klopp bought Van Dijk and Alisson after selling Coutinho at a high price.

These two, one a central defender who is invincible in one-on-one fights and the other a goalkeeper who is best at one-on-one fights, are the best choices that Klopp bought at huge cost to solve the problem of his top-heavy tactics.

But now, one of them is in Manchester City and the other is still in Brazil, and neither of them is under Klopp's command.

Therefore, at this time, Klopp's team is actually far from meeting his requirements and still has many shortcomings.

After 75 minutes of the game, the Red Army players began to have obvious problems with their physical fitness.

Except for the players who came on as substitutes, the rest of the players were unable to run.

But the good news is that the physical energy consumption of the Manchester City players is also considerable.

The pace of this game was too fast and the physical confrontation was extremely intense. Players from both teams ran long distances and consumed a lot of physical energy.

So, after 70 minutes of the game, the defensive quality of both teams began to decline.

This gave the forwards of both teams opportunities to score goals!

In the 76th minute, Liverpool substitute striker Benteke headed the ball after receiving a cross from his teammate in the penalty area, but the ball went over the crossbar.

In the 78th minute, Manchester City's quick counterattack reached Liverpool's half. Lin Quan passed the ball to De Bruyne after attracting the double-team of three opposing players.

De Bruyne's long-range shot just slipped past the goal, and he also missed the opportunity to change the score.

Liverpool were the first to break the deadlock.

In the 82nd minute, after getting a series of set pieces, Liverpool took advantage of a corner kick opportunity, and Skrtel scored with a header, helping Liverpool score another goal, and the score became 2:4!

Liverpool's goal in this period almost killed the suspense of the game.

So after Skrtel scored the goal, including himself, his teammates, coaches on the sidelines and Liverpool fans on the stadium, all jumped up excitedly.

Klopp excitedly threw a set of farmer's three punches on the sidelines. He didn't dare to say what the result would be before the ball was scored, but after the ball was scored, he felt that the game was secured.

The score is now over the 80th minute and there is not much time left for Manchester City.

The two-goal lead is a huge advantage for Liverpool. As long as they don't make unforgivable mistakes, it will be difficult for their opponents to equalize the score, let alone overtake.

Although Liverpool's record this season is not very good, it is currently ranked only 10th in the Premier League standings.

But he believes that as long as they can win this away game, Liverpool will be able to gain momentum.

Defeating the mighty Manchester City is not just about getting 3 points, it is also a huge boost to the morale of the entire Liverpool team.

This victory is enough to build up their players' confidence and help them regain the feeling of a top club.

So please, players, please hold on for these last few minutes and please bring victory back to Liverpool!

If Klopp had time to make substitutions, he would have definitely substituted a few defensive players to strengthen the defense.

Although he is reckless, he is not stupid.

The players can't run anymore, and it's impossible to ask them to continue running all over the field like they did in the first half.

So after Skrtel scored, Klopp immediately made tactical adjustments and let Liverpool's formation retreat back to their own half.

Of course, he is not the kind of person who likes to be beaten passively.

The forwards who came on as substitutes did not retreat, but continued to press the opponent's players with the ball in the frontcourt, putting as much pressure on the opponent as possible and not giving them the opportunity to organize an attack calmly.

To play under Klopp, it is not enough to have good footwork skills, you also need plenty of physical strength. Otherwise, under his tactics, you won't be able to play the entire game.

Of course, even if you have sufficient physical strength, it will not be enough. You must not have the glass man attribute, otherwise you will not be able to withstand it. When you encounter the fast-paced Premier League, the result is that the camp is full of injuries.

However, these are things that need to be considered and worried about in the future. What Klopp has to do now is to use this set of tactics to let the players, fans and club executives see the actual results.

The away win over Manchester City was the best answer! Liverpool's fourth goal dealt a heavy blow to Manchester City's morale. The goal at this time made their comeback completely impossible.

It would be too difficult to score more than two goals in the last ten minutes.

Are they really going to lose at home? Just when the players were full of thoughts and feeling depressed.

A man stood up, walked calmly to the goal, fished out the football, and walked back to the center circle holding the football.

When he met his teammates on the road, he patted each of them on the shoulders, indicating that the game was not over yet, without saying much.

However, when his teammates saw Lin Quan's determined look, a fire seemed to ignite in their hearts. The flame of hope that they thought was about to go out was rekindled! "It seems that Manchester City has not given up yet. Lin Quan is comforting his teammates!"

In the commentary booth, the two guest commentators also saw this scene and sighed in their hearts: "The team really needs him to stand up at this time, even though he has done well enough in this game!"

"Yes, he led the team to a comeback in adversity and scored two goals, which once made Liverpool's goal nervous. It's a pity that Liverpool's condition was too good in this game, and the tactics formulated by Klopp were very restrained against Manchester City. Lin Quan and his team may very likely suffer their first defeat of the season!"

As a senior commentator in the Premier League, Martin Taylor has watched too many games and has a keen judgment on the trend of the game.

Judging from Liverpool's form in this game, they don't seem like the kind of team that would collapse at the end of the game.

On the contrary, this Liverpool team is united and willing to give everything for victory.

From their fiery eyes, we can see how much they desire this victory, so Manchester City’s counterattack in the final stage will most likely not be able to reverse the defeat.

This was indeed the case after Liverpool ended their celebrations and the game resumed.

Although Manchester City launched wave after wave of fierce attacks under the leadership of Lin Quan, they were unable to break through Liverpool's door.

The 90 minutes of regular time passed quickly and the referee only gave 3 minutes of injury time.

In the second minute of injury time, when Lin Quan used his superior personal strength to disrupt the opponent's defense, David Silva came out from the side and shot a long shot, changing the score to 3:4!

There was one minute left in the game and Manchester City was still one goal behind! Without wasting any time to celebrate, Lin Quan and David Silva ran towards the goal at the same time, picked up the ball and called their teammates to prepare for the restart.

The Liverpool players were all stunned. They were dizzy from Manchester City’s goal just now. They didn’t know how the opponent scored the goal. Wasn’t the ball at Lin Quan’s feet?

How did he suddenly appear in front of David Silva?

And why didn't the people guarding David Silva keep an eye on him, allowing him to receive the ball so easily in the empty space at the front of the penalty area? Losing the ball at this time made Liverpool's players feel very uneasy.

Although there was only one minute left in the game, Manchester City had performed the 9320 miracle.

Although Aguero has been substituted now, the one who remains on the field is even more terrifying than the original Aguero.

Three years ago, Manchester City scored two goals in injury time and finally defeated Manchester United to win the championship!

Three years later, will the more powerful Manchester City play out the same scenario? Thinking of this, the more than 40,000 fans at the scene stood up collectively, all tiptoed, stretched their necks to look at the stadium, and dared not blink, for fear of missing this last wonderful moment.

It's the last minute, can Manchester City equalize the score?

On the sidelines, Liverpool head coach Klopp also felt a little nervous, and the palms of his hands in his trouser pockets even began to sweat.

The current temperature in Manchester is only around seven or eight degrees, but he feels hot all over and wants to take off his coat.

On the other hand, Guardiola feels similar to Klopp.

He was originally wearing a suit and tie, but at this moment he felt that the tie was strangling his neck, making it difficult for him to breathe. He wanted to take off the tie so that he could breathe deeply.

It was just an ordinary league game, but it made the two world-class coaches feel suffocated, as if they were playing in the Champions League final! Liverpool's players dilly-dallyed, stalling for time as much as possible.

Finally, under the warning of the referee, he reluctantly went to the center circle to kick off.

After they kicked off, all the Manchester City players on the opposing team rushed over.

There is not much time left, and Manchester City may only have one chance to attack.

So they must not let Liverpool control the tempo of the game and waste time by taking advantage of opportunities to pass the ball back in the backcourt.

Liverpool players knew very well what the opponent was thinking, so they passed the ball back after the kick-off and finally it reached the goalkeeper's feet.

The goalkeeper kicked the ball forward with a big kick, wasting time.

All Manchester City players have now rushed across the half court, and the only one left at the back to defend is their goalkeeper.

When Navas saw the opponent's goalkeeper kick the ball, he immediately determined where the ball would land and rushed over.

The referee had already started looking at the watch, and the time on the big screen was about to enter the third minute of injury time.

Manchester City fans at the scene couldn't help but pray in their hearts: Don't blow the whistle, don't end the game, Navas, faster, faster! Navas quickly stopped the ball and passed it to Kroos who retreated to receive the ball. Kroos moved to the front court in a large area and accurately found Lin Quan who appeared on the wing.

Seeing the football come to Lin Quan's feet, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Quan.

Can he change the score? Seeing that time was running out, Lin Quan started to act recklessly.

After getting the ball, he no longer sought cooperation with his teammates, but rushed directly to the opponent's penalty area, as if he wanted to break through the opponent's defense line by himself.

At other times, this might not seem like a wise choice, but in the final seconds of the game, it was really the only choice! "Stop him!"

All of Liverpool's players were attracted by Lin Quan. At this time, his threat was even greater than that of all the other Manchester City players combined!

"Oh my god, is he going to single out the entire opposing team?"

"How is this possible?"

"Lin, he passed Lorenzo, he avoided Lucas's tackle..."

In the commentary booth, Martin Taylor was explaining the game in an excited tone and at a very fast speed.

But the fans sitting in front of the TV were completely immersed in the game and completely ignored his commentary.

Under the gaze of countless fans, they saw Lin Quan single-handedly rushing into the enemy's encirclement, dodging and moving in the double-teaming of multiple opposing players and in a very small space, avoiding interceptions and steals again and again! "Lin, he rushed into the penalty area. There were five defensive players around him. Liverpool's entire defense line was dealing with him. He fell into an unprecedented desperate situation. Almost all of his shooting space was blocked!"

“There’s no room to shoot!”

Andy Gray on the side was also worried and couldn't help clenching his hands.

Lin Quan was surrounded by multiple people, but his mind was surprisingly calm. He looked up at the goalkeeper's position, cut the ball with his left foot while moving, and took advantage of the moment when the ball slowed down and bounced to complete the shot with the inside of his left foot.

The ball flew into the air, passed through the gap between two Liverpool defenders who were retreating, passed through the crowd, and flew towards Liverpool's goal.

Liverpool goalkeeper Mignolet's attention was actually always on Lin Quan, but Lin Quan's shot was aimed at the upper left corner of the goal. This position was too tricky, and he had already lowered his center of gravity and had no way of jumping in time. He could only watch the football draw a beautiful arc and go into the net with a swish!

At this time, the game time on the scoreboard was exactly 93:19!

Another 9320 miracle was born!  (PS: This ball can be seen in the second round of Messi's goal in the 12-13 season Barcelona vs AC Milan!)
