In the players tunnel, a tense atmosphere has filled the small space.
Lin Mo, like everyone else, does not look at the other team's players, even if you know them.
Looking up slightly at the corner, he saw the famous [this is Anfield] sign.
This sign has two meanings, it is to warn Liverpool players and also to let them understand who they are playing for.
It is also a warning to visiting teams visiting Anfield. This is Anfield and you will face the Red Army.
Just as Lin Mo held back his itchy hand, he heard Lukaku whisper from behind: "Lin, can I touch that?"
Lin The corners of Mo's eyes suddenly twitched. Is this guy Lukaku a troublemaker?
But he did not dare to delay. After turning around, he quickly "clamped" the hands that were about to make a mistake.
Under the cold gaze of Van Dijk and others, Lukaku realized that he almost made a mistake.
"Kaku, although you are 8 years older than Lin Mo, I always feel that you two are inversely young." Maguire shook his head and continued to rub his calf.
Seeing that Lukaku was stopped in time, Lin Mo let out a sigh of relief.
Unlike other players, Lin Mo is a little nervous at this moment.
You know, Mourinho was dismissed after losing 1 to 3 here.
During this period, Liverpool was so strong that it almost knocked Manchester City off the Premier League championship. It can be said that if they had not accidentally tied one more game, they would have won the championship.
But this is just a trivial matter. The most critical thing for Lin Mo is the Double Red Club.
The Centenary Double Red Club is an unfavorable match in the hearts of fans from both sides.
Once upon a time, some extreme Liverpool fans mocked Manchester United for the Munich incident.
There are also extreme Manchester United fans who use the words Hillsborough and Heysel.
You can see the hatred between fans from both sides by the fact that all Liverpool police officers were present at Anfield today.
Before the game, more than a dozen fans had been arrested because of conflicts.
But within Manchester United, before Mourinho's speech, there was almost no special hatred.
"The departure of Rooney and others has made this team lose some heritage."
Does the team want to win?
Absolutely!
Do they want to compete for the championship?
Absolutely!
But fighting spirit against Liverpool?
Lin Mo did not see the life-or-death momentum.
When the two silent parties slowly walked into Anfield, before the melodious singing started, a childish voice sounded first:
"Next, walk inOn the pitch is Liverpool's most loyal fighter, one of the best forwards, uh, my idol: Mohamed Sala~~Hah! "
As the children's voices fell, the fans cheered wildly.
The Kop stands were the most active area.
". .Ali~~ loose! ”
“..Robertson! ”
“.. Love~~Lun! "
"..."
"...Filmi~~~No! "
In the Anfield studio, little Toby excitedly read out all the Liverpool playing lists with the encouragement of the DJ and his father.
The child was also given a thumbs up on the spot. Encouraging applause.
On this special day, Liverpool's 12th man took the lead.
On the sidelines, Mourinho held Klopp's hand and looked ugly. The other party's smile was similar.
At this moment, Lin Mo and others were already standing in a row, but what jumped into their ears was the uniform singing of the Liverpool team song "You'll never walk alone".
Louder than ever!
“Hoo! "
"Phew! "
Just as Lin Mo was constantly adjusting his breathing to get into the best condition quickly, Maguire's voice came from the side:
"Lin, I am today Want to score a goal. ”

Lin Mo:?!
Brother, don’t make trouble!
Seeing Lin Mo's stunned look, Maguire scratched his big head: "I made an agreement with Rivers Rhodes, and he wanted to see me slide to my knees to celebrate. "
"Who? ”
“The bravest man in my heart. "
Seeing Maguire's extremely serious expression when talking about the man named Rhodes, Lin Mo nodded: "I'll try my best. "
All the ceremonies ended, and the shocking cheers sounded again.
The battle is about to begin!
"Okay, with the referee's whistle , the game officially begins! "
"This is the 201st double red meeting between the two sides. In the previous 200 encounters, Manchester United dominated with 80 wins, 55 draws and 65 losses. ”
“Last season, Manchester United’s record of one win and one draw did not allow Liverpool to take any advantage. ”
“The last time Liverpool defeated Manchester United in the league was in 2014. ”
In fact, Lao Zhan’s mood was very complicated in this game. He very much hoped that Liverpool could win the Double Red Club and even win the first Premier League championship trophy in team history.
But on the other side, Manchester United has Chinese player Lin Mo.
Not to mention, many fans who regard Liverpool as the first home team and Manchester United as the second home team are also entangled.
In such a complicated mentality, the two sides launched their first test.
The 2nd minute of game time.
Liverpool, which was short of major generals at the back, took the lead in attacking.
Faced with Manchester United's frontcourt pressure from the beginning, Liverpool dealt with it very skillfully.
Robertson easily got rid of Lingard's press and then sent a long pass.
A black shadow instantly started from the midfield. The young Dalot was faced with such a challenge for the first time, and he couldn't reach Mane in time.
Fortunately, this young man with a bright personality accelerated in time and was not thrown away in the wake of Mane.
But Maguire, who was chasing back, knew that Liverpool's threat was more than that.
Seeing [Jade Faced Man] Firmino actively moving to get out of the way, Maguire could only reach out and signal Smallin to follow him.
Three seconds later, the football flew towards the penalty area with strong rotation.
Maguire almost burst into tears just by looking behind him. Firmino had already thrown away Smalling.
In desperation, Maguire gritted his teeth and threw his body out.
In a flash of lightning, the football accurately hit Maguire's left foot and took off.
De Gea felt a black dot flash before his eyes, and instinctively stretched out his hand to block it, but only let the football lightly brush against his fingertips.
The football bounced off Maguire's left foot from the near post and flew towards the far post.
Firmino's red figure carried the expectations of the fans in the stadium and jumped to the football.
"Hiss——!"
"A hair's breadth! Firmino didn't reach it..."
Lao Zhan's words just fell. , the fans at the scene burst into regretful voices of "Oh——!" almost simultaneously.
Klopp bared his teeth and held his head in his hands with a look of disbelief.
Carragher in the commentary box jumped three feet high, and he swallowed the cheers in his throat, which made Gary Neville's eyelids jump in fear.
In the penalty area, De Gea, who felt that his heartbeat had almost stopped just now, gave Maguire a high-five.
He knew that Maguire made the right choice and he would not tackle the ball.
Firmino is about to face an empty goal.
Many times, defenders not only need to predict, but more importantly, they need to be brave, calm and decisive!
Liverpool's attack also completely kicked off this shocking double red meeting.
