1042 Enough to lose!

Klopp did not show much pessimism before the League Cup final. He believes that Arsenal's season is not over and they have not withdrawn from the battlefield.

Arsenal fans may have been disappointed for many years. Now they are mostly open-minded than players and coaches. There is really nothing to expect in the league. Even if they can get tickets to the Champions League next season, the rest is whether they can go further in the Champions League.

New Wembley Stadium, London.

Liverpool and Arsenal fans gathered at the stadium to compete in the stands, cheering deafeningly.

When the players of both teams walked into the stadium, cheers burst out from the entire stadium and shook the sky.

Situ Yunbing, who was wearing a suit and tie, walked into the stadium and took the initiative to shake hands and greet Klopp.

Klopp was obviously in a heavy mood. After shook hands with Situ Yunbing without saying a word, he turned around and walked to the coach's command area.

Situ Yunbing was able to understand Klopp's mood and worked hard for most of the season, but the front that he attached the most was eliminated!

The most important thing is that Arsenal has achieved almost the best record in history!

Even compared with Wenger's unbeaten record in the season that year, it is not comparable to the unbeaten record in Wenger!

Outsiders may think that such a situation will make people feel depressed, but putting themselves in Klopp's shoes to feel it is definitely a bit desperate!

Because I don’t know what else to do to improve my performance!

Liverpool and Manchester City's points are far ahead of other league leaders in the top European leagues!

Situ Yunbing did not intend to comfort Klopp. In fact, during his coaching years, he had ridiculed Mourinho, provoked Guardiola, and despised Conte and Simeone.

But he had never had a targeted psychological war on Klopp.

Because Klopp's coaching environment and conditions are not very good, both at Dortmund and at Arsenal.

There are Bayern and Hamburg in the Bundesliga, which is both richer than Dortmund and has better resources than Dortmund.

In the Premier League, Arsenal's image as a miser has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts for many years.

Coupled with the constraints of the salary system, Klopp actually has little room for play.

Like the coaches of other clubs, such as Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United, they have far more resources than Arsenal, but sometimes they cannot even achieve a passing record.

Therefore, Klopp is a respectable opponent.

Maybe he has some sadness, but this is the cruel football world, which is not much different from the social reality that everyone lives in. It is not that the results you make will definitely succeed if you exceed expectations.

Standing in the coaching area of ​​the New Wembley Stadium, Situ Yunbing looked calm. This temple that carries the highest dream of English football, has left his mark here in the past five years and won the championship trophy here many times. In the history of the honor of New Wembley Stadium, his record of leading the team to win the championship is a very important mark.

Today he is going to continue to harvest the trophy here!

Players on both sides have already held a pre-match kickoff ceremony on the court, and it seems that Liverpool is more relaxed than the Arsenal players.

The Arsenal generals were serious and looked very strong in fighting, but they were also a little nervous.

"Good afternoon, everyone, everyone, welcome to the 2017-2018 season at the New Wembley Stadium in London, England!

The two teams that reached the League Cup final this year are Liverpool and Arsenal.

These two teams ranked first and third in the league respectively. This League Cup final is an absolute peak showdown in the English football world!

The two teams are under great pressure for the schedule this season, and there is also the Champions League outside the league. Therefore, whether they can do their best in this game will be a question. I think Arsenal's fighting spirit will be stronger. After losing to Manchester City in the last round of the league, they were considered to have withdrawn from the championship group. If they can defeat Liverpool and win the League Cup today, it will be a considerable achievement.

Liverpool has never lost the finals under the leadership of Situ Yunbing in recent years. In addition, they are in excellent form this season, and today they must be determined to win the championship!

Let me introduce the starting lineup of both sides.

Liverpool started 433 today.

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Arnold, Van Dijk, Cooley Barry, Robertson.

Midfielder: Casemiro, Eriksen, Kante.

Forwards: Mbappe, Lewandowski, Sane.

It is a bit surprising that Sane only starts on the Reds, but referring to Sane's outstanding performance in recent times, there will be no controversy in his starting role.

Arsenal also started 433 today.

Goalkeeper: Karius.

Defenders: Bellerin, Koscheerney, Matip, Chambers.

Midfielders: Milner, Ramsey, Wijnaldum.

Forwards: Salah, Firmino, Mane.

The two teams are all elite, and a big battle is inevitable!

Well, the two teams have finished the pre-match kickoff ceremony and will now be the first to kick off!"

After Arsenal kicked off, Situ Yunbing focused on observing Arsenal's posture and state today.

After the opening, Arsenal quickly pushed forward, and it seemed that he wanted to play against Liverpool and was caught off guard.

Ramsey and Wijnaldum collided with each other and then stepped forward. When facing Kanter, heel knocked back. Milner followed up with a diagonal pass to the ground and sent the ball to the right side of the frontcourt.

Salah took the initiative to respond and directly dribbled across the ball. He went to the right in front of the penalty area and was about 25 yards away from the goal. Salah forced his kick and shot.

The football hit Van Dijk and bounced out.

"Arsenal completed a shot at the beginning, but Salah was obviously a little anxious!"

As soon as the football blocked was controlled by Casemiro in the backcourt, Ramsey actively counterattacked the ball and broke it out of the sideline.

Arsenal's formation slightly retreated and began to press for defense.

Situ Yunbing looked solemn, and he couldn't tell whether he was worried or feeling pressured.

Liverpool was hit by a backcourt and encountered a quick counterattack on Arsenal's forward line. Just look at his posture. Today, Arsenal is absolutely strong!

But this strength did not panic Situ Yunbing. He was just wary of Arsenal's sudden change of posture.

Arnold made a long pass from the backcourt, and Lewandowski headed the ball in the middle of the frontcourt to find Sane. The latter just stopped the ball and was intercepted by Bellerin!

Arsenal's tight defense does bring better results to the defense, but it also requires higher risks.

Klopp stood on the sidelines and remained motionless, like a sculpture.

He must win this League Cup final!

If there is any reason, it is that he has lost enough!

He met Situ Yunbing and Guardiola in the Bundesliga, and in the Premier League at the same time!

It seems to be suppressed by fate!

Of course, if Klopp doesn't like challenges, he will have a chance to coach Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain to win the championship last year after year!

But that's just a waste of time for a head coach who likes to challenge.

Just as it is true that most top coaches will not coach the national team when they are young.

After Arsenal's successful defense, he quickly launched a fast attack. Wijnaldum quickly stepped forward and disrupted Liverpool's midfield defense. At least in terms of physical confrontation, he had a great advantage in playing against Kanter.

When he tried to cooperate with Mane in a continuous wall and then headed into the penalty area, creating a dangerous situation in front of Liverpool. Goalkeeper Ter Stegen saved and held the ball high above the crossbar with one hand!

"Wow! Wijnaldum's header almost made a good start for Arsenal!

Unfortunately, Ter Stegen played his bravery!

Arsenal was so fierce after the opening game!

Liverpool was caught off guard by playing!"

Arsenal's corner kick attack, Van Dijk directed his teammates to set up a defense line.

Ramsey's corner kick was cleared by Coolibali header at the back of the penalty area.

Bellerin rushed up to the right in front of the penalty area and raised his foot and volleyed!

The football flew into the stands!

Klopp clapped and was satisfied with the team's performance after the opening game.

Situ Yunbing was still calm and composed.

It seems that Arsenal is the starting style of playing, and there is nothing wrong with this style of playing, but it lacks some changes. If they score a goal, they will definitely change their posture immediately. They may not play other teams, but if they play Liverpool, being able to take the lead is an opportunity that must be seized and utilized for good advantages.

Situ Yunbing wanted to see what happened to Arsenal today.

He does not doubt Arsenal's fighting spirit, but Arsenal looks down on Liverpool too much, or they are more like they are venting through the game!

He gestured to the team on the sidelines to let the team control the rhythm of the game.

Liverpool will find flaws on Arsenal's defense by passing more patiently.

In the 7th minute of the game, when Arsenal's midfielder was frantically encircled the Liverpool ball-handler, Erikson directly knocked the ball back to Van Dijk, who passed the ball across the left. After Robertson took the ball and waved forward, he cooperated with Kant to dodge Salah's pressing and interception, Robertson sent a diagonal pass behind the center line to transfer.

Mbappe took the initiative to respond on the right side of the frontcourt and stopped the ball with his chest. When Chambers came to defend, he made a move to cut inside but stopped quickly and pulled the ball to the outside of the side. Chambers pressed and lost the ball, turned around and chased again, but he had no chance.

Mbappe, who was dribbling through the ball and speeding up, sent a threatening cross in front of the bottom line.

Lewandowski attracted firepower in the middle, and Sane followed up at the back and volleyed directly!

But he still exerted too much force and his footwork was not controlled well. The football flew straight to the stands above the crossbar.

Sane sighed with his head in his arms, then gave Mbappe a thumbs up.

Liverpool's offensive has numbed Arsenal fans' scalp, and even Arsenal players are still scared.

Sane's shot is only a short distance from the goal!
Chapter completed!
