In the face of absolute strength, any effort will seem pale and weak.
Newcastle away to Liverpool, who aspire to win the championship, the penultimate challenge is second in line, and the venue is still at Anfield, so the result can be imagined with your eyes closed.
However, Newcastle's Adventure at Anfield is not without good news - Liverpool's defensive core Van Dijk and the main defender Fabinho have been isolated due to a positive test for the new crown, which undoubtedly gives Newcastle a little bit of hope.
This struggle to survive really brought surprises to Newcastle, and it was quite unexpected.
Just seven minutes into the opening, Newcastle pushed in to the front of the field under the cross, Thiago was hasty to break the line, Liverpool veteran Servi in the middle of the road after receiving the ball and lifted his foot to shoot, the ball in an Anfield night sky after a fatal arc, straight into the goal. From the shot to the goal, Alisson actually did not react, and Servi's shot was indeed a swing.
Scoring on goal on goal for the first time in the game naturally excites the Newcastle players.
Dare to go wild in Anfield usually attracts crazy retaliation from the Red Army, and as for the result...
The Red Army immediately stepped up its offensive, firmly suppressing the Magpies in the backfield, and under the strong attack of the Red Army, the Magpies' fragile backline was soon unable to support it, and after Mane missed the perfect opportunity to break the door, the Magpie's back line collapsed in an instant under the high position of the Red Army.
In the 21st minute, Mane's cross from inside the box was not too threatening, but the two Newcastle defenders collided in a panic, and Jota kicked the ball into the goal behind Dubravka at the back post.
Despite the Newcastle players protesting to the referee, Matip did not foul in the scramble, the referee decided that the goal was valid, the score became 1-1, and the two sides returned to the same running line.
But Newcastle's emotional fluctuations were quickly caught by Liverpool, and just 4 minutes later, Shelvy's return pass was wrong, Mane's push after intercepting the ball was barely saved by Dubravka, and the unguarded Salah scored a shot to reverse the score.
The surprise at the start quickly turned into a struggle to survive, and at half-time, the shooting ratio between the two sides was 12-2, and Newcastle was fully restrained.
After the easy side, the Magpies took advantage of the Reds' habitual slack after taking the lead, relying on Shelvy's long-range shots and Messim's breakthrough to deal with the Reds, but in the end, because of the gap in strength, they could not equalize the score.
The 2-1 score was not actually safe, but Klopp still replaced Thermino with Firmino for salah, and it was clear that Klopp was already confident about winning the match.
In the 87th minute, after Arnold received a return pass from Firmino on the left, he took a bow and arrow outside the penalty area line, and a world wave once again blasted dubravka's ten fingers. The score became 3-1, the overall situation was decided, and Klopp Mingjin closed the army.
With 3 points in hand, Liverpool continued to follow the leaders Manchester City, and the gap between the two sides was still only 1 point.
For Klopp, the news has been good lately: on the one hand, the Reds have won 6 consecutive games in the Premier League and are in good shape; on the other hand, the Reds' injured players have all recovered from injuries, and Firmino, Keita and Werner can all play. This is undoubtedly a great benefit for the difficult and long Christmas race.
What is even more exciting for Klopp is that due to a new wave of outbreaks caused by the Aomi Kerong virus, the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations is likely to be cancelled. This naturally makes Liverpool fans breathe a sigh of relief, this season's Premier League competition is fierce, if the African Cup of Nations is cancelled, Liverpool will not have to worry about affecting the state.
And Newcastle, the future super club, still has to survive first, and the winter window may be the only chance.
