“Who will win the first championship of this season?”

In major live broadcast rooms, fans have already taken their seats on the virtual benches, waiting for the game to begin.

Henderson and Kompany led the players from both teams onto the field, with the referee being England's famous referee Oliver.

Lin Chen walked at the end of the team and entered Wembley Stadium. He was already very familiar with this venue. After all, Liverpool won two championship trophies here last season.

Manchester City's powerful lineup took position in the opposite half, and with a crisp whistle, the game officially began!

"Dear fans, the game has already started. You are now watching the Community Shield final of the 2018-19 season. This game is a make-up game!"

"After Manchester City improves its lineup, they will definitely hope to beat Liverpool and win the championship!"

After the game started, Manchester City still used the passing and controlling style of play. Guardiola had long said that he would never change his tactical type.

But Muric is a big variable, his ability is obviously inferior to Ederson.

Liverpool is also taking advantage of Muric's youth. Firmino has been staying near the penalty area. As long as Manchester City players dare to pass the ball back to Muric, he will immediately step forward and try to force Muric to make a mistake!

The 12th minute of the game!

"Liverpool fought very hard and were in a very high position. Facing Manchester City, Liverpool kept attacking and was very bold. Compared with other teams, they were not afraid of Manchester City's strength."

Lin Chen followed behind Firmino, his goal was to prevent Gundogan from receiving the ball.

Lin Chen believes that Gundogan cannot play as a single defensive midfielder, but Guardiola lets him play as a single defensive midfielder, which may become his opportunity.

"Walker adjusted the ball on the wing, there was no space to move forward, he passed it back to Kompany, and then passed it back again."

"Manchester City's pass is risky, give it to Muric!"

Kompany passed the ball back to Muric, and Firmino rushed forward immediately. Muric was a little nervous, but he tried to stay calm and passed the ball quickly to Laporte.

Laporte was also facing pressure, with Salah trying to get the ball to him, so he had no choice but to pass the ball back to the right and find Mendy.

Because Salah was trying to get past Laporte, Mendy should have had space to dribble the ball, but as soon as he stopped the ball, Rodri appeared here.

Mendy was forced to kick forward, and the ball hit Rodri's leg and bounced out of the sideline, barely giving Manchester City a chance for a throw-in!

“It was almost broken!”

"If Mendy had been a little slower, Rodri would have had a chance to steal the ball."

"Liverpool's pressing method has changed in this game. Rodri in the midfield will rush to the wing, and Salah will enter the penalty area and compete with Firmino for the central defender!"

"Lin Chen restricted Gundogan, so De Bruyne and David Silva were forced to stand further back to help the team pass the ball out from the backcourt, otherwise they could only kick the ball forward."

"But high balls are not Manchester City's comfort zone. If they kick the ball far, they will definitely not be able to beat Liverpool's midfield. Both Rodri and Van Dijk have a firm height advantage!"

"The new pressing method arranged by Klopp is very effective!"

Liverpool's new pressing method gradually disrupted the rhythm of Manchester City's backcourt. Rodri appeared on the right or left from time to time, using his running ability to help his teammates press!

Guardiola on the sidelines saw that something was not right.

Wasn't Rodri originally playing as a defensive midfielder?

Why do you always appear in the front court?

What kind of attack is this?

During the World Cup in Spain, Lin Chen was used to implement an upgraded version of the attacking midfielder tactic, and Klopp was inspired again based on this tactic!

He began to play the defensive midfielder forward tactic, using Rodri as a pressure player in the frontcourt. Rodri is tall and more importantly has excellent stealing ability while also being able to hold the ball.
