Chapter 276 The First Crown

In fact, there is a reason why the media and fans believe that Liverpool is very likely to fail in this game.

Because of the impact of the World Cup schedule.

England reached the World Cup semi-finals.

The team captain Henderson and main right-back Arnold will not be able to play in this game.

Henderson is injured.

Arnold has only been training with the team for less than a week.

Liverpool's two wingers, Salah and Mane, also participated in the World Cup in Russia with the team.

They actually had more time to join the training than Arnold - after all, neither Egypt nor Senegal qualified for the group stage.

But they also joined the team training later.

The possibility of starting in this game is relatively low.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Before the game, both sides announced their starting lineups.

Klopp did not start Salah and Mane.

Replacing them in the starting lineup were Origi and Shaqiri.

Also in midfield.

Naby Keita, Wijnaldum and Emre Can started the game.

On the back line.

Matip and Van Dijk partner as central defenders.

The left back is Robertson who just joined the team.

The right back was an unexpected choice.

It is Ashraf, the right-back loaned by Liverpool from Real Madrid. Some media claimed that this signing was recommended to Liverpool by Sunshine.

No one thought of it.

This fringe player, who only got one chance to play as a substitute in Real Madrid last season, started in the first game of the new season after joining Liverpool this season.

Compared to Liverpool.

Chelsea here.

Although Hazard was absent because Belgium reached the World Cup semi-finals.

But they have Pedro and Willian on the left and right, and Morata in the middle.

In midfield.

Kante's absence has a big impact on Chelsea - Kante is a key player for the World Cup champion French team and is still on vacation.

So their starting lineup consisted of three midfielders: Jorginho, Fabregas and Barkley.

On the defensive line, Rudiger and David Luiz partner as central defenders, Azpilicueta as right back and Alonso as left back.

Neither side sent out their absolute main lineup.

Chelsea are missing Hazard and Kante.

Liverpool was missing two important wingers.

but.

Liverpool fans are very confident.

Because, no matter what, the sun is still on the court.

Wembley Stadium was packed.

The game became very heated due to the media hype.

There were also many fans in front of the TV waiting for the game to start.

Fans of all other Premier League teams are looking forward to one thing: to slap Liverpool in the face and slap the sun in the face.

What a boast about winning seven championships.

It would be best if you could make this empty promise right at the beginning of the season!
With this thought.

The ratings for the event continued to rise.

And on site.

Fans from both sides were giving their all.

I've been holding it in for more than two months.

It is possible to watch the games again.

Everyone is almost exhausted.

What's more, the media before the game also found so many gimmicks for this game.

All the fans felt that this was just a warm-up Community Shield match.

But it is more important than the previous Community Shield.

The fans of both sides gave this game passion, roaring and shouting in the stands.

Not inferior to any cup final!

Especially when players from both sides enter the field.

The moment the whistle blew to start the game.

The roars, cheers, and noises of the entire Wembley Stadium reverberated throughout the stadium, drowning out everything else inside.

The commentators are in the middle of it.

Everyone's eardrums were buzzing.

Sky Sports commentator Kolo had to raise the volume and shout into his headset.

"Dear viewers, welcome to watch the 2018-2019 English Community Shield! The two teams are Liverpool, the champions of the Premier League last season, and Chelsea, the champions of the FA Cup last season. As the referee blew the whistle to start the game, the game officially began. Neither side sent out their strongest lineups. Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams. First of all, Liverpool's starting goalkeeper is the new signing Alisson."

Kolo was concentrating on announcing the starting lineups of both teams.

I haven’t finished talking about Liverpool’s starting lineup yet.

There was a sudden commotion in the stands.

There were cheers and boos.

You don't have to think too much to know.

There is definitely something going on on the field right now.

Koro raised his head hastily.

I just happened to see the Liverpool army approaching the city.

Keita had the ball at the front of the penalty area and suddenly passed the ball from the right to the left, landing at the feet of Shaqiri, the new signing of this season.

This was Shaqiri's first appearance for Liverpool.

In the previous warm-up match.

Shaqiri was outstanding.

Although Liverpool only paid 14 million euros for him.

Compared to Salah and Mane, whose current market value is close to 100 million yuan.

His value is indeed not high enough.

But Shaqiri is ambitious.

He felt that as long as he performed well, he might get more playing opportunities - it might not be possible for him to be a starter, but it would be great to have more playing time.

Shaqiri, who was playing in the Premier League for the first time, was very excited. The Swiss Messi used a change of rhythm to shake off the defense and then made a direct cross.

It was at this moment that the cheers suddenly increased.

Koro looked up.

I just saw the football flying towards the penalty area.

And in the air.

The sun has risen high.

Posed in the air.

"This"

Chloe was stunned for a moment.

Because this is indeed very unexpected.

His starting lineup hasn't even been released yet.

Liverpool only launched the first wave of attack.

Who can think of
This ball went straight to the top of Yangguang's head?

What does such a scene mean?
Kolo knows this all too well after watching Sunshine score countless goals last season.

Few would doubt the power of sunlight in the sky.

not to mention.
Chelsea's defenders also seemed to be out of game form.

Both Rudiger and David Luiz were at least two meters away from the sunlight at this time.

Vacant seat.

header.

"GOOOOOOO"

Koro hummed softly.

Yangguang jumped in the air, and his super strong air-sustaining ability allowed him to almost stay in the air and observe, waiting for the football to fall.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment.

In Yangguang's eyes, the football looked like a slowly flying balloon.

next second.

Yangguang raised his hands to maintain his body balance, then he retracted his abdomen, and suddenly tightened the muscles in his waist and abdomen. The power was transmitted through his torso, and his whole body twisted in the air like a twist.

Followed by.

When the football falls to the right height.

All the power that was ready to go exploded!

The lion shakes its head!

Chelsea goalkeeper Caballero was actually prepared to make the save.

Because strictly speaking, Shaqiri's passing speed is not fast.

With such a speed of the ball, Caballero can certainly be fully prepared.

When the football was hit by the sun.

Caballero immediately jumped into the air and pounced. However, the ball came slowly, but when Yangguang headed the ball out, the speed was much faster than he had imagined.

It was like a spaceship that was suddenly accelerated by a slingshot, instantly accelerating to a speed that could break free from the gravity of the planet.

Just when Caballero realized that he might have jumped too slowly.

The football had already flown past his fingertips.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!"

Chloe exclaimed.

The commentary box was filled with excitement.

"The ball goes in! Oh wow! Beautiful! Less than 20 seconds into the game, Liverpool scored a goal!!"

"What kind of luck does Chelsea have? It's simply unmatched!"

"Who would have thought that in this Community Shield match between two strong teams, Chelsea would lose the ball from the very beginning!!"

"Sunshine! Sunshine! Sunshine!!! He scored the first goal for Liverpool. This is his first official match goal this season. Ladies and gentlemen, let's start counting his goal data now, so as not to miss his historic moment again!!"

"It was a great assist from Shaqiri! His pass from the wing was very targeted and sudden."

"Shaqiri's addition will greatly strengthen Liverpool's bench depth!"

"Liverpool has become stronger this season!"

When the sun sets.

He looked back at the football in the goal, then ran with his arms open towards Shaqiri who assisted him.

The new winger has shown his abilities during training, with his dribbling and crossing being quite impressive.

There is such a player on the wing.

It can greatly enrich the team's tactical routines and also make the team's substitute lineup stronger.

This is obviously a very beneficial supplement for the team's goal of winning seven championships this season.

"What people criticized most about Liverpool last season was that their substitute lineup was too weak. But now, look at Shaqiri who played in this game. If he was two or three years younger, maybe he could threaten Salah or Mane's starting position."

"Liverpool have been quite successful in this season's summer transfer window. Now their weaknesses have been largely made up for. They will definitely be stronger in the new season than last season."

"Maybe."

"An era dominated by Liverpool is coming."

Sky Sports commentator Kolo was chanting.

in front of the TV.

Many fans who heard this, especially Manchester United fans, frowned.

They didn't want to see this.

But deep down,

Everyone realizes
This Liverpool team is indeed too strong.

Is it
The next era.

Does it really belong to Liverpool?
on the TV screen.

Sunshine rushed over and hugged Shaqiri.

The other teammates came forward to support them.

An idea popped up in Shaqiri's mind as he was surrounded by his teammates.

That is.
He chose to join Liverpool.

It is really the right decision!!

Be teammates with sunshine.

This thigh.
It's really too thick.

Shaqiri knew before that the sun was powerful.

But how powerful it is exactly is still learned through the media, which has an extra layer of filter and is not intuitive.

After he and Yangguang became teammates.

Only then did he realize how powerful the sun was.

What he showed in the game was only a part of his true strength.

As long as it's the team where Sunshine is.

This team is almost invincible.

Liverpool's future is very bright.

Seven-time champion?
Shaqiri actually has little confidence.

But no seven crowns.

He would be satisfied if he could win the triple, quadruple, or quintuple crowns.

As a professional player.

Is there anything better than winning so many championship trophies?

Sarri looked helpless.

He shook his head repeatedly on the sidelines.

He seemed very dissatisfied with the team losing the ball just at the beginning of the game.

At the same time, he also realized
Before the game, I underestimated Liverpool too much.

He didn't expect Liverpool to be so strong.

Originally, Sarri felt that even if Chelsea couldn't beat Liverpool, if they were determined to get a draw, Liverpool wouldn't have any good solutions.

Sarri has ambitions for the Premier League.

In his opinion.

Liverpool is strong again.

One season.

They have only met Chelsea twice.

Facing Liverpool.

He just needs to avoid being double-killed.

Then find a way to maintain a high enough efficiency in scoring points when facing other Premier League teams.

Thus.

Even if we can't beat Liverpool.

Can also win the championship.

Because the league is a long marathon, as long as Chelsea does not relax, no matter how strong Liverpool is, Chelsea will have the opportunity to surpass its opponent in points.

But now it seems.

It's so difficult to beat Liverpool and win the championship
A little bit bigger than 100 million.

Courtside.

Klopp just sat on the bench.

I saw the team score a goal.

He stood up with a smile and came to the sidelines to applaud.

The goal was scored.

Liverpool are leading.

game.

This has entered Liverpool's rhythm.

This Community Shield has a 90% chance of winning.

Just now.
