Chapter 236: I’m sure to win the Premier League title!
In the media booth at Anfield, media reporters from all over the world were shocked by Sunshine's earth-shattering goal.

They were all thinking about the wording of the post-match report.

But soon.

Someone realized that Liverpool was about to win the battle for the top spot!

"3-1 Liverpool have already won."

“No more suspense”

"Is it this game that is no longer suspenseful, or is it this season?"

“Maybe none of them!”

The English journalists were talking.

The reporters from the Manchester area looked a little unhappy.

They don't want to see Liverpool winning the championship.

For the people of Manchester.

Mocking Liverpool's "0 Premier League" has become a favorite routine for Manchester City and Manchester United fans.

"It's only the 23rd round now, it's too early to say who will be the champion."

"Yes, Liverpool have historically been at the top of the table before."

“Remember Gerrard’s slip?”

"I personally don't believe in fate, but I really don't think Liverpool will ever win the Premier League."

"I was about to win the championship, but then I slipped and fell... Hey!"

Manchester journalists ruthlessly exposed the scars of Liverpool players.

Gerrard's slip.
It refers to the 2013th round of the 14-36 Premier League, when Liverpool faced Chelsea at home. Before this game, they were 5 points ahead of second-placed Chelsea and 6 points ahead of Manchester City, which had two games less.

This can be said to be a game that determines who will win the championship.

At that time, Chelsea led by Mourinho did not show an aggressive attitude, and Mourinho's team parked the bus away from home.

It can be said.
Even if Liverpool tacitly slowed down the pace with Chelsea, the game ended in a 0-0 draw.

They can also face two weak teams in the last two rounds.

There is a high probability of winning the first Premier League title in the team's history.

But in this game, Gerrard made a fatal mistake at a crucial moment. In the first half stoppage time, Gerrard, who was in the defensive midfielder position, faced Sakho's cross pass. He made a mistake in stopping the ball and slipped without any pressure, which eventually allowed Demba Ba to get a chance to score a goal. Liverpool conceded a goal first, lost a good situation, and eventually missed the Premier League championship. The one who came from behind was Manchester City!
Now these Manchester people are bringing up old issues again.

This made the Liverpool reporters present look very ugly.

They glanced with disapproval at the loud-talking Manchester people.

Matthew Paris, editor-in-chief of the Liverpool Echo, took a deep breath and said to his colleagues: "A three-point lead is indeed not big, but it is still a lead!"

He lowered his head and wrote a sentence in his notebook:

"Liverpool people don't believe in fate or curses."

"If there really is one, we will crush him!"

"Just like Yang's shot!"

In the media seats, reporters' attention was no longer on the court.

They were all writing post-match press releases.

At the same time, some people were preparing questions for post-match interviews.

on the field.

The morale of Manchester City players was almost destroyed by Sunshine's volley.

Manchester City's performance in this game was actually not bad.

They have the advantage in many statistics.

They didn't even give Sunshine much of a chance.

But
It is the two world waves that rely on sunlight.

Manchester City had to accept the disappointing outcome of losing at Anfield - even though there were still seven or eight minutes left in the game.

But even the most optimistic Manchester City supporters.

It's hard to expect anything after losing such an extremely discouraging goal.

Manchester City can still muster up courage.

In these few minutes.

Scored two goals in a row to tie the score.

Guardiola returned to the coaching booth.

Arteta shook his head helplessly.

Manchester City was well prepared for this game.

Even Stones, who was responsible for defending Suns, found it difficult to say that he had any problems.

He has already forced Sunshine to score a world-class goal.
It can be said that there are not many central defenders on the planet who can do this.

Guardiola is a very rational person.

He didn't expect a miracle to happen in the next few minutes.

Instead of praying for a miracle.

It would be better to think carefully about how to restore the team's morale after the game.

Trailing by three points isn’t the end of the world.

There are 15 rounds left in the league.

Even if Manchester City has no chance to face Liverpool head-on.

It cannot be said that Manchester City has fallen out of the championship race with 15 league games left to play.

They can do their best and wait for the other party to make a mistake.

Of course, the premise is...Manchester City itself cannot make any mistakes.

"From now on, we can't make any more mistakes."

Guardiola said to Arteta.

Klopp put his head in his hands.

He was also shocked by the ball.

He even forgot to celebrate as the entire process of scoring the goal was still replaying in his mind.

After returning to his seat, Klopp turned to his assistant Kravitz and said: "We still underestimated him."

Kravitz can't care about that.

He laughed and said, "He's ours anyway!"

Manchester City launched several attacks late in the game.

However, with the morale of the whole team low, these attacks seemed to be anticlimactic and failed to pose a threat to the goal guarded by Karius.

In the stands of Anfield, cheers and singing became the main theme of the last few minutes of the game.

After Liverpool seized the ball, they were not in a hurry to launch an attack, but passed the ball in the midfield to kill time.

Every short pass they made would trigger huge cheers from the stands.

As if this was not an ordinary short pass.

It was like a graceful passing move.

Just like that, in such an atmosphere.

The game has entered the final period.

As the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

In the stands of Anfield, cheers resounded through the sky.

"The game is over! The game is over! Liverpool defeated Manchester City 23-20 at home! After 2 league games, Liverpool has 1 points with 62 wins, draws and loss, ranking first in the league standings! And Manchester City, which they defeated, has gone from having the same points as Liverpool to now being three points behind Liverpool! The situation in the Premier League title race this season has undergone the biggest change!!"

With the narrator's voice.

The camera immediately locked onto the sunlight on the field.

The moment the whistle blew.

Every Liverpool player clenched his fist and celebrated the victory.

Just as the commentator said, this was indeed a crucial victory.

from now on.

The initiative in the championship race is completely in Liverpool's hands.

In the next 15 rounds of the league, Liverpool only needs to do its best and it can move forward towards the championship step by step without having to worry about other people's faces!

The screen then showed many Liverpool players celebrating.

Finally, he stared at the sun, and the camera followed the sun, watching him hug his teammates, high-five head coach Klopp, and interact with fans in the stands.

Mixed interview area.

Sunshine was surrounded by reporters.

With two goals and one assist, Sunshine was undoubtedly the biggest contributor to Liverpool's victory in this game.

"Yang, after winning this game, Liverpool is three points ahead of Manchester City. Do you think this is a big advantage?"

"Honestly, it's not a big advantage." Yangguang shrugged, "It's just an ordinary victory." The reporters thought Yangguang was going to change his personality.

He continued: "Whether it's leading by three points or one point, it's nothing special to me. Anyway, I've got the Premier League title this season!"

The reporters all breathed a sigh of relief.

well.

Still the arrogant Chinese
at the post-match press conference.

Yangguang was naturally the focus of the press conference.

Facing questions from reporters.

Klopp said bluntly: "I am not surprised at his performance. He has such ability. He is the striker with the strongest goal-scoring ability!"

When it was Guardiola's turn to come on, he was also very helpless. On the one hand, he tried to excuse Stones and relieve the pressure.

"I think our defense was successful. Stones is the best central defender in this league. He managed to freeze Yang at one point, but we lost to two world-class players."

Guardiola said.

"Are you saying that the reason Manchester City lost to Liverpool was because of bad luck?"

A reporter stood up and asked.

"You can understand that."

Guardiola was naturally in a bad mood after losing the game. He glanced at the reporter and said with a pout.

"Manchester City is now three points behind Liverpool. Does Manchester City still have hope of overtaking their opponent?"

"It's only the 23rd round now, falling behind by three points is not the end of the world."

"Liverpool are in great form but every team has its downturns."

With the battle for the top spot over.

Before this, the discussion about whether Liverpool can win the Premier League title was already raging.

Up to now, almost every media outlet will discuss this issue when reporting on this game.

"If Liverpool can maintain their form in the first 23 league rounds, it is a foregone conclusion that they will win the championship!" - Steven Nolan, editor-in-chief of the Daily Mail, wrote in his column.

This seems like nonsense.

But considering Nolan's status in the English media circle.

His statement makes people more inclined to believe that Liverpool really has the potential to become a champion this season.
Yangguang's remarks in the post-match interview also became a hot topic for the media.

This naturally sparked heated discussions among fans.

"I've got the Premier League title!"

This sentence was quoted by many media and became the headline.

Someone who knows about this game used this sentence in his post-match report.

Comment area:
“It has to be sunshine!”

"Domineering!"

"Three points, three points!"

"Brilliant!"

“The advantage is mine (Fenghua accent)!”

Most Chinese fans support Yang Guang.

Even many Manchester United fans, although somewhat unhappy about Liverpool winning the Premier League title, would not target Sunshine.

And
Manchester United and Liverpool are sworn enemies.

But how much does this have to do with Far East fans?

The conflict between the cities of Liverpool and Manchester.

As a Far East fan, you have such a strong sense of immersion.

They wanted to beat each other's brains out.

Isn't this like carrying someone else's coffin to your own home and crying?

In general.

The majority are normal people.

And in England.

Fans will discuss it, too.

Liverpool fans naturally fully support Sunshine.

Some media used a "for the good of Liverpool" tone to criticize Sunshine for saying such things so early, saying that he was putting pressure on his team and teammates.

Other fans were just digging up old grudges.

“Is Liverpool close to winning the league title again?”

“It’s not like I haven’t encountered this before.”

"Liverpool just can't win the Premier League title!"

"It's a curse!"

"Liverpool will never win the Premier League! Ever!"

Liverpool's enemies are howling.

Manchester United fans in England are probably the group least happy to see Liverpool win the Premier League title.

on the Internet.

Manchester United fans listed all the seasons in which Liverpool failed to win the title.

And tell people.

Liverpool will definitely not win the championship.

Because it's a curse!

Although, curses may not exist in the physical world.

But as soon as everyone starts talking about spells.

Then the curse will really have an impact - it will give people some bad psychological hints.

"A curse? If there really is a curse, I will kick it to pieces!"

During the open training time, Yangguang pointed at himself and said this when being interviewed by reporters.

"Aren't you worried about putting pressure on your teammates?"

"I believe them." Yangguang curled his lips. He saw Salah walking by him and asked loudly, "Mohammed! I said I want to win the Premier League. Are you scared?"

He was greeted with a raised middle finger.

"Look!"

Sunshine gestured to the reporters.

Many reporters rolled their eyes.

If you ask me that, who would be willing to admit that they were scared to death?

After training.

Yangguang updated his status on his Twitter and Weibo.

"Forgive me for being so direct: I have secured the 2017-2018 Premier League title! I mean what I say!"

soon.

His updates were pushed to the top of the trending searches.

Those who love him think he is straightforward and direct.

Those who hate him say he is too arrogant.

But that's Sunshine's style.

He never leaves himself a way out.

"Champion? We will play every game well."

Unlike Sunshine, Klopp doesn't want his team to be distracted by too many people talking about the Premier League title.

Two days after this fierce battle for the top spot.

Liverpool will play West Bromwich Albion away.

This is an FA Cup match.

Taking into account the physical fitness of the main players.

After much thought, Klopp decided to give up strategically in this game.

He used a large number of reserve and youth team players to play this game, and the result is predictable, Liverpool lost 0-2 away.

This was Liverpool's third loss this season.

One league game, one League Cup game and one FA Cup game.

This is the end.

Liverpool were eliminated from both domestic cup competitions.

Klopp's attitude clearly declares to the world: Liverpool will concentrate all its energy to win the Premier League championship!
