Revive Liverpool

Chapter 287 Old enemies Wenger and Mourinho

Liverpool's tie at the buzzer at the end of the game brought them a point in the Champions League group stage.

The Liverpool players who achieved the buzzer-beating tie happily got together after the game and came to the gathering area of ​​Liverpool fans to celebrate the tie.

The Liverpool fans who came to Ukraine with Liverpool today are definitely diehard Liverpool fans.

They can come with the team to cheer for Liverpool, and they definitely hope to be able to accompany the team in every game.

Although the result of this game for nearly the entire game was not very friendly to Liverpool fans, the last few minutes of the whole game can definitely be "excellent food" for Liverpool fans.

And the diehard Liverpool fans who can come here with the team will definitely not leave the stadium before the end of the game, and being able to see such a game with their own eyes may be one of the happiest things in a year for them.

(Why is it one of them? Because Liverpool won the Premier League this year! What could be happier than this?)

Although it was a draw, this game is still worth celebrating.

That's the beauty of sports.As long as a game is not over, there is still hope, because miracles will always happen.

And Liverpool is always a team favored by the goddess of luck. It can always turn danger into safety, turn danger into luck, and create miracles (except for the Premier League championship).

Back in the league, Liverpool sits at home against visiting West Bromwich Albion.

West Bromwich Albion ranked 17th in the Premier League last season and did not successfully avoid relegation until the last round of the league.

At present, in the Premier League standings, West Bromwich Albion has two wins, two draws and two losses, ranking No.8 with 10 points, and the same points as Manchester United, which is ranked No.7.

It is worth mentioning that West Bromwich Albion's two league victories were obtained in the last two rounds of the league. They have won two consecutive league victories recently and are in very good condition.

Therefore, although Liverpool is playing at home in this game, and Liverpool's league ranking is higher than West Bromwich Albion.

However, the media in England believe that Liverpool, who have just played the Champions League in the middle of the week and are relatively tired, may encounter certain troubles in this game.

In this game, Lallana was transformed into a full-back by Klopp and became Liverpool's starting full-back.

In the 45th minute, Coutinho made a direct pass. Lallana hit the wall with Henderson in front of the penalty area.

In the 56th minute, Berahino broke into the penalty area and was tackled by Lovren. The referee sentenced him to death. Berahino took the penalty overnight and the score became one to one!

But slow-motion replays of the TV broadcast showed Lovren's foul was outside the box.

In the 61st minute, Mankilo made a cross from the right. Sterling got up and passed back immediately after being knocked down by Gardner. Henderson followed up in time and scored with a low shot from the far corner, two to one!

In this game, Henderson became the protagonist of the scene and became the hero of Liverpool's victory in today's game.

He was very active today. He first assisted Lallana to score, and then scored a goal from the back row to seal the victory for Liverpool. This was also Henderson's first goal of the season.

Among the other leagues in this round, the focus of the battle will undoubtedly be that Chelsea defeated Arsenal [-]-[-] at home.

In addition to the very attractive games on the field, the coaching bench on the sidelines is also full of turmoil.

Before the game, the coaches of the two teams, Mourinho and Wenger, had already launched a verbal duel in an interview.

When the game progressed to the 19th minute, a shocking scene appeared on the court.

At that time, Cahill and Sanchez had a fierce fight on the field. Arsenal coach Wenger was very dissatisfied with the referee's penalty. Wenger came to the fourth referee to put pressure on the referee to show a red card.

Mourinho, on the other hand, sang a different tune and said to Wenger to go back to his own area.

So Wenger walked towards Mourinho. The moment the two approached, the professor suddenly lost control and pushed Mourinho away with both hands, instantly pushing the madman to a stagger. The fans on the sidelines were completely shocked by this sudden scene.

Then, under the intervention of the referee, the two coaches temporarily calmed down and avoided the escalation of the "fighting".

During this physical conflict, Mourinho was much calmer than the professor, and kept making gestures to make Wenger return to his coaching bench.

But Mourinho was not particularly friendly during the conflict, and he later said in his autobiography: "(During the conflict) I told him, you do this here, you know I can't fight back, but one day I will hit you again in the street. I will fight back."

The "history of conflict" between Wenger and Mourinho has always been a topic that fans talk about.

The first time the two had a war of words was in the summer of 2005, when Mourinho took the lead in firing at Wenger.

He blasted the Premier League schedule in favor of Arsenal, saying: "Some clubs are seen as devils, and some are seen as angels. I don't think ugly (playing style) should be regarded as devils, and I don't think Arsene Wenger is as good as angels."

A month later, Wenger blamed Chelsea for their passivity on the pitch: "We live in a win-or-lose world, but a sport that encourages teams that refuse to play positively is dangerous."

Then Mourinho ridiculed Wenger as a "voyeur": "I think Wenger is a voyeur. He always likes to peek at others. He is entangled with Chelsea. There is such a person who always uses a telescope to read stories about other people's homes when he is at home."

In September 2007, after Mourinho's poor record was fired, in an interview, he vented his anger on Wenger. He accused Wenger of his poor record but was not fired: "The British like statistics very much, but do they know that Wenger's winning rate in the British league is only 9%?"

In 2013, Mourinho returned to the Premier League and once again became Wenger's main competitor, so the war between the two was rekindled.

At the beginning of 2014, Wenger said at a press conference that Mourinho's repeated public weakness was a manifestation of "fear of failure".

And this also gave Mourinho a chance to fight back. "He is a specialist in failure because eight years without winning trophies is a failure and if I did the same with Chelsea then I would leave London and never come back."

On March 2014, 3, Wenger coached Arsenal's 22 games against Chelsea.
