Chapter 306 Merseyside Derby 1

The Merseyside Derby, also known as the Liverpool Derby, is definitely one of the hottest football derbys in the world.

It is said to be one of them, and it is a little too modest. In fact, in the eyes of senior fans, the Merseyside Derby is only one of the Boca Derby in the Riverbed, and its intensity is the second in the world. Although the ratings of the Derby are not too high in the world because the results of the two teams are not very good in recent years, but its intensity is Absolutely far beyond the Spanish derby (Real Madrid VS Barcelona), the most powerful evidence is that in this derby, the referee ranks first in the world in the number of cards.

In Liverpool, Everton and Liverpool are no longer competitive. They are real sworn enemies and have reached the situation of having you without me.

The hatred of the two teams can no longer be simply described. The accumulation of contradictions makes the Derby of Merseyside Derby far higher than the victory of a team. There are many examples of the hatred between the two teams to illustrate---

For example, the transfer of the two teams' new matches depends on the movement of the other side.

Liverpool buys good players, and Everton will squeeze out pounds to buy good players even in financial crisis, otherwise their fans will be dissatisfied. There is such a strange thing in the European transfer market, that is, as long as Liverpool is interested in a player, Everton will also be interested.

For example, in the city of Liverpool, various sports stores will be divided into Everton Fan District and Liverpool Fan District, even in the square, which is also the helpless move of the Liverpool municipal government to reduce conflicts.

In addition, Liverpool and Everton players do not dare to really contact each other's fans. The end of that will never be good. They stay in prison for more than ten days and let the other side have fewer star players in a short time. This kind of thing sounds terrible, but in fact, many fans in Liverpool are willing to make sacrifices.

All kinds of explanations, this is the real sworn enemy!

Many people say that football is higher than life and death, but in fact, the Merseyside Derby is already higher than football. The victory or defeat is no longer relevant to this derby. The important thing is to fight on the court!

In the opinion of Liverpool fans, this derby battle is a war between two teams on the court.

War, there are no winners, only tragic!

Not only that, the hatred of the two teams has even penetrated into the bones of many players. Rooney, who has just transferred to Manchester United, openly declared in an interview before the game that he wanted Everton to win. He said to Liverpool, "Although I am now from Manchester United, every time I hear Liverpool's name, I feel a sense of hatred."

This statement applies to all players who have stayed in Everton, and so does Liverpool.

Don Jack hates Everton very much, because the latter's fans have a serious impact on their lives. When they go shopping, they sometimes have to take a special channel for Liverpool fans (this channel is set up in many Liverpool malls, and of course, Everton is the same). The media that support Everton have nothing good to say about him every time they report him. It's all sarcasm, sarcasm and ridicule. No matter how good his performance is, the Everton media will not say anything. They can even say something like "I hope Liverpool's No. 10 will be injured and admitted to the hospital tomorrow."

In the short term, Jack Don can still understand, but in the long run, he has a sense of hatred.

This is hatred for the team, hatred for the club, and also hatred for the other fans. From Liverpool's point of view, all the topics about Everton and Everton are extremely annoying. What Liverpool people like to hear most is Everton's bad luck.

For all fans in England, the Merseyside Derby is also one of the most anticipated games of the season. For some fans, the 'one' can be removed, because it is not a football match at all, but like the wrestling battle between the two teams on the court, its intensity and popularity can be imagined.

If there is no red card in a Merseyside Derby, I'm afraid all England fans will not be satisfied.

Liverpool has the pride of Liverpool, and Everton also has the pride of Everton.

The long and proud history of Everton Club gives them a respectable position in the history of British football. In 1878, Everton Club was officially established, 14 years before Liverpool. After that, Liverpool separated from Everton and traced back to the origin. The two teams were originally a ball. Team.

In the 1920s, Everton established the reputation of England's strong team. In the 1927 to 28, the legendary Dean scored 60 goals in a season, which not only helped Everton win the league championship that year, but also created a single-season goal record that has not been broken. .

In the next 50 years, Everton continued his glory, winning four league titles and one FA Cup.

In the 1980s, they dominated the English First Division twice, and then won the European Cup Winners' Cup, making them one of the most feared teams in Europe.

After entering the 1990s, Everton, which declined slightly, tenaciously defended the Premier League seat and still holds a proud record - it has never been relegated from the top league since 1954.

And the current Everton's results are also very good. Although their results have been suppressed by Liverpool, both teams are strong contenders for UEFA Champions League qualification. In England, the two teams are the closest opponents in the same city, which may be one of the reasons why the Merseyside Derby is popular.

Last season was a frustrated season for Everton. The original dark horse disappeared, and the rest was only the weak team struggling for relegation.

However, this season, Everton sold Wayne. Rooney, the finances have been greatly alleviated. It is not an exal to say that they are one of the richest clubs in England. 30 million pounds is not a joke. Coupled with Everton's good results this season, they are still one of the most concerned clubs.

At the beginning of the season, Liverpool's media has begun to pay attention to the schedule of the two teams.

This is also the hottest game before Christmas, even much higher than the popularity of Arsenal vs Chelsea at the same time.

When Liverpool finished the away League Cup and returned to Liverpool, countless media reporters poured into the whole city of Liverpool. They all had to interview some news before the game to report the game.

In this game, Don Jack is one of the most watched players.

As Liverpool's number one killer, he is now the number one enemy of Everton fans, which has a great impact. He hasn't driven to the club recently, because Everton fans already know his license plate number. In case he is blocked by fans on the road, it will be too troublesome.

So, Jack Don always take a taxi to the club for training.

Life is really annoying, but just these days, Everton fans will always be a little crazy before the derby war. Of course, Liverpool fans are the same. I'm afraid Don Jack is not the only one who is worried.

For the players of the two teams, this game is a real tough battle, a real physical battle.

Not only the players and fans of the two teams think so, but also the FA. Compared with the battle between Chelsea and Arsenal, the FA is more concerned about the match between Everton and Liverpool, because the former is only related to league points, while the latter may have violent incidents.

In an interview, the press officer of the FA said, "We hope that the Premier League will have a professional style of football and not have too many fouls, so that the game will not be beautiful."

What a joke!

Premier League matches have always been fierce, which is also one of the highlights of the Premier League. Don't make too many fouls? It was completely to coax the children, but no one said anything sarcastic. Anyone knew that it was against the Liverpool derby a few days later.

The Football Federation is worried, and the media are also worried, but they are even more interested.

Just three days before the game, Benitez was already emphasizing: "It doesn't matter. The important thing is to be careful not to get hurt!"

The Spaniard is also participating in the Liverpool derby for the first time. He is also nervous, but he still emphasizes: "We just need to play our own style. What we need is glory. If we lose a game in the league, we won't lose too many points."

That's what I said, but Benitez never wants to lose! No Liverpool coach wants to lose the Liverpool derby.

However, Liverpool is really 'hurt'!

The injury of football players is an eternal topic, but in the face of this Liverpool derby, Benitez has no confidence at all. In such a fierce game, it is really difficult to think that a player is not injured. Since the existence of this derby, in every battle between Everton and Liverpool, there will always be players Injury.

Major injuries are rare, but there will always be injuries if you bump.

Benitez obviously didn't want to see this scene, so he repeatedly stressed about this matter, especially for Gerard and Don Jack, and he tirelessly told that the Spaniard just hoped that the two could pay more attention and never hurt their bodies, so that Liverpool would really 'injure' again.

However, Don Jack is not very worried. Instead, he is looking forward to the game.

When it comes to football skills and so on, although he has scored a lot of goals, he really doesn't have much confidence. But when it comes to the body collision on the court and Shaolin's internal skills, how can he be afraid of others? Not to mention anything else, even if Everton's eleven players punch him head-on, he can guarantee that he will not be hurt greatly.

But he is still a little worried about other teammates.
