Referee Klattenberg blew the whistle of the game and Liverpool took the lead in kicking off.

After Liverpool kicked off, Manchester City pressed quickly.

When the ball reached Liverpool's backcourt, Miniole hit the right side of Manchester City with a big foot. Sturridge beat Walker and successfully fought for the top. Joe Allen got the second point. Wan Ya immediately grabbed it quickly and knocked Joe Allen down. Liverpool got a set piece in the frontcourt. Manchester City's first high-level defense failed.

Manchester City's defensive attitude is very positive, while Liverpool's defensive attitude is also not conservative.

Manchester City is also trying to do more control on the court. It should be said that the effect is still good. After a few minutes of the game, Manchester City gradually became a little bit controlful. Rodgers' Liverpool is naturally not the kind of opponent who is stubborn. Seeing that the control is falling, they are not in a hurry. They harass the frontcourt and retreat quickly, and will definitely not give Manchester City a chance to counterattack quickly.

Wensheng is quite satisfied with the current situation. The way he wants the team to take today is to take control flow. Dzeko is slow and the strategy of high-level defense is not very suitable for him. On the contrary, he can make good use of Dzeko's fulcrum. His state in the last two games also shows obvious signs of recovery.

Wensheng attempted to defeat his opponent through positional warfare, but he did not achieve it. He was first blocked by Liverpool in the midfield. Rodgers made his defensive strategy arrangement very targeted. Their players themselves are not bad in ability. After intercepting the ball, they rarely pass backwards, so they think about going to the wings.

In the 8th minute, De Bruyne dribbled the ball in the midfield and was cut off. Henderson immediately passed the ball to the wing to Sterling. Hills, the England international, was completely worn by young player Sterling.

"Sterling dribbled the ball and moved forward quickly... Kompany made up the place, with an accurate slip! Very beautiful, he stopped Sterling from further advancement!"

"Konpani is reminding Hills that he seems to be telling Hills to pay attention to Sterling's defense. This breakthrough is too dangerous. Sterling's last step is a bit big and deviates from his control. Otherwise, at his speed, Koonpani will be difficult to defend!" Martin Taylor analyzed for the fans.

"It seems that Manchester City needs to pay attention to Liverpool's counterattack speed. Hills' comprehensive ability is very good, but he is too high. Once Liverpool gets the opportunity to counterattack, Sterling will cause a lot of trouble to Manchester City!" Taylor gave Sterling a very good evaluation.

Of course, the 3S combination is not a false reputation.

In contrast, Costa encountered some trouble in his offense. His style after holding the ball was to dribble as a blasting point. However, Manchester City mainly focuses on positional battles. When the ball reaches his feet, he always tries to break through the double-team of Liverpool players. The success rate is too low. After all, he has close staff, and no matter how hard he can break, he is on the wing, and there are not many choices in direction.

But Wensheng still maintains enough patience with him. For him, the fighting spirit of this game is very important. Costa has good fighting spirit. If one or two successes are likely to cause big trouble to Liverpool.

In the 12th minute, Manchester City finally did a beautiful penetration operation in the frontcourt. Dzeko returned to De Bruyne. De Bruyne's powerful shot in the penalty area was blocked by Miniole's rapid reaction, and Manchester City missed an excellent opportunity!

"Beautiful save!" Martin Taylor couldn't help but applaud Miniole. De Bruyne's shot in the dense defensive area was indeed a bit hasty, but he had the strength angle, but it was still within the coverage of Miniole, which was tested Miniole's reaction.

Miniole was obviously very focused and was not knocked down by this hasty shot.

Wen Sheng was a little regretful. Liverpool's defense was very well organized. After playing for more than ten minutes, Manchester City actually only shot twice. De Bruyne's chance this time was the best, and of course it was also due to his personal ability. If other people's shooting routes were changed, maybe it was not as accurate as him!

The pace of the game changed in the 16th minute. Liverpool took advantage of the offensive opportunity in the positional battle. Suarez retreated to outside the penalty area and made a wonderful pass from Sturric. Sturric broke into the small penalty area and shot low at a low angle. The ball drilled into Manchester City's net from Hart's crotch.

Manchester City's proud defense line was actually penetrated by its opponent like this. Walker, who was carefully selected by Wensheng, was very responsible. He didn't realize Sturridge's interpolation, or he didn't stop it at all, and he couldn't imagine that Suarez would pass such a ball with his back!

"Wonderful cooperation! This goal comes from the tacit understanding between Suarez and Sturridge, Sturridge did not waste any chance! Liverpool led Manchester City 1:0 away!" Taylor also pointed out the key to the goal after passionately commenting on Sturridge's goal.

Tacit understanding, because of this kind of tacit understanding of one-point communication, this goal was created!

Wen Sheng was also quite helpless. Suarez's pass was beyond his expectations. It was really hard to blame Kompani. Kompani's focus must be to prevent Suarez from turning around, but Suarez passed the ball directly with his heel.

The route is impeccable and the timing is impeccable!

Rodgers was very excited, but he did not show his physical movements. His record against Wensheng was not very good, so Wensheng has always been his target of catching up. It is a good thing to be able to lead at Manchester City at home, but he also knew that he would probably face the storm of Manchester City next time, and the opponent would definitely not be able to rely on the ball to attack slowly.

It seems that Liverpool is at an absolute bottom position, and Suarez's pass is a masterpiece, but what does that matter? The important thing is that his team is leading. Isn't it just to give full play to the players' inspiration on the court?

Rogers was disappointed, and Wensheng did not make any changes. On the contrary, through Wensheng's words and gestures on the sidelines, Rogers knew that Wensheng was not anxious!

Of course, Wen Sheng was not in a hurry, but felt that the most secure plan to control the current situation was only one goal behind. Liverpool's defense line has not been so reliable so far this season. Wen Sheng decided to give the team time to implement the control flow positional battle tactics. If the score cannot be equalized in the first half, Manchester City must make changes in the second half.

He accelerated the pace and played against Liverpool. He believed that Rodgers would be happy to see that situation. More ball exchanges mean that Liverpool will get more opportunities. What are the weaknesses Liverpool itself? Rodgers is very clear. He will put his treasure on his offense and bet on Suarez and others. This way, when it comes, it depends on whose offense is more sharp.

Speaking of the media before the game, it was generally believed that this was a war between spears and spears. Taylor also believed that how strong Manchester City's attack was, the data could tell everything. Opponents like Manchester United and Arsenal were all beaten into sieve by them. Liverpool's defense was worse than these two teams. Rogers would not be unable to recognize this and would definitely rely on his own offense. But who would have thought that Manchester City and Liverpool had started offensive and defensive drills until the beginning of the game, and Liverpool had honestly fought back, and the effect was pretty good!
