The 18th round of the Premier League ushered in the tottenham Hotspur vs. Liverpool, and although both sides were absent from their respective important players, the Reds' Liverpool were clearly the side that was considered more dominant before the game. However, what people did not expect was that this would be a wonderful confrontation of equal strength, and even the "weak side" Tottenham Hotspur won the first goal first priority.
Just 13 minutes into the opening, Kane received a pass from Ndombele to open the scoring for Spurs, and then the two sides opened fire to fight each other. Liverpool attacked from the ground, using crosses from the flanks or rib penetration to try to penetrate Tottenham's defence, scoring the equaliser in the 35th minute.
And Tottenham's way of playing is simpler, seize the absence of the main player of Liverpool's central axis, just play a quick defensive counterattack in the middle, in the first half Son Xingyu, Alli and Kane all seized several liverpool conceded moments to run out of excellent one-handed opportunities, but they just did not seize the opportunity to break the goal, otherwise it is likely that Spurs will lead in the first half.
Of course, wasting their chances is equivalent to giving their opponents a chance, Liverpool in the 69th minute and arnold assisted robinson in the left gate to reverse the score, Spurs became the side behind. The game continued, but Spurs continued to play with a quick counter-attack, and soon Son Heung-min equalized again for the team. At this time, everyone thinks that the energy of the two teams has been exhausted, so they will pass the ball casually and end the game? How could it be, this is the Premier League!
Due to the imbalance of mentality after being equalized, Robertson rude fouled and received a red card, so both sides quickly changed their play due to the impact of this episode. Spurs under Alli lucas, trying to increase the explosive point to directly hit Liverpool's defense, and Liverpool also had to replace Mane with a defender to supplement Robertson's gap.
10 to 11 did not affect Liverpool's attack, no matter how the tactics changed, the attack is still the main theme of this game. Relying on Salah's personal ability, the Reds frequently made dangers, while Tottenham Hotspur fell into a brief low, but fortunately they finally resisted, and the two sides ended in a draw.
Although this game was a 2-2 draw, the fierce attack and defense of the two sides was really wonderful, but unfortunately, the referee's several decisions during the game were extremely controversial, and even after the game, they were complained about by the Liverpool manager in person, adding a stain to the game.
It has to be said that in the past two years, the Premier League has rarely seen such a fierce offensive and defensive war, and the main techniques and tactics of both sides have been played to their own extremes. In addition, not all the players are in the best form in this game, otherwise it would definitely be a wonderful goal battle and not just an offensive and defensive battle.
