After the Champions League match is the national team match day.

After the national team game, the international players of their respective teams returned to the team one after another, and so did Liverpool.

The two consecutive national team games and the long-distance travel made the players look very tired.

But it happens that Liverpool will go away to challenge Manchester City next.

And there will be a Champions League group match next.

Fortunately, Liverpool said that they have already qualified first in the group ahead of schedule, and they do not have such urgent requirements for the results of the Champions League group stage in the middle of next week.

But Manchester City is different.

They will play an away game against the Hungarian team Debrecen in the middle of next week.

The team's initial status in this group was the fourth-tier team.

But it is not easy for Manchester City to win them.

Manchester City's first Champions League group match this season is to challenge Debreson at home. Before the game, everyone believed that Manchester City 03 would definitely win easily. The only suspense is how many goals to win

As a result, Manchester City finally won by only one goal at their own home court, and almost failed to win.

This is also Manchester City's only victory in the Champions League group stage so far this season.

So next week's away game is very important for Manchester City.

They must win this game if they want to retain any hope of qualifying from the group.

At the same time, we must count on Lyon to lose to Fiorentina in the away game, so that the two teams can be evenly divided.

Then Manchester City defeated Fiorentina at home in the last round, and hoped that Lyon could not win Debreson at home.

Because once Lyon wins, when the two teams have the same points and compare the relationship between the two sides, Lyon has one win and one tie.

So for Emery, now he may not have time to think about the league at all, and first strive to qualify from the Champions League group stage.

The head coach who once led Sevilla to achieve three consecutive Europa League titles is now facing a very difficult challenge.

So he didn't really care about Liverpool's game at all.

Even at home, he didn't send in the main force, and he didn't have the posture to fight Liverpool to the death.

Liverpool also didn't send all the main players, but it was not for the UEFA Champions League group stage in the middle of next week. They needed rest because too many main players played for the national team.

In this game, both sides fielded the second-team lineup.

Su Han is the brightest star in this lineup.

In addition, Sterling also got the chance to start in the game.

He replaced Mane, Meyerson replaced Sanchez.

The three of them formed the team's new offensive trident.

Manchester City has no intention of fighting here, and Liverpool played very smoothly.

They scored a goal in the first and second halves respectively, and finally defeated Manchester City 2-0.

Su Han scored the winning goal in the second half and it was Sterling who assisted him.

After defeating Manchester City, Liverpool still lead with 34 points after 13 league rounds.

But behind Chelsea also chased very closely, Mourinho's team beat Wolves by 40 at home.

Although Liverpool have one game less than Chelsea.

But in this level of competition, it doesn't make sense to have one less game and one more game.

Sometimes it is momentum that determines victory or defeat. When your momentum is like a rainbow, you can be as powerful as a bamboo, cutting melons and vegetables all the way to kill.

When you don't have enough momentum, it becomes very difficult to even hit a mid-range team.

The momentum mainly depends on the accumulation of victories.

After the match against Manchester City, Liverpool returned to their city.

They don't need to fly, just take the bus directly.

The distance between the two cities is only tens of kilometers, which is the distance from the city center to the suburbs in many domestic provincial capitals.

You can go home in less than an hour by bus.

Although there was a Champions League game in the middle of the week, Ancelotti still gave half a day off after the game. He didn't have to come to the base for training in the morning, as long as he came in the afternoon.

And there is not much content in the training in the afternoon, mainly restorative training

Let the players' bodies recover, those who participated in the game 537 relax their muscles, and those who did not participate in the game maintain their physical fitness.

Preparing for the Champions League game in midweek.

In the UEFA Champions League group stage in the middle of the week, Liverpool is playing at home, and their opponent is PSV Eindhoven.

This game is already insignificant for Liverpool. But for Eindhoven, it is a very crucial game.

In the last round of the group stage, they defeated Atletico Madrid 2-0 away.

That took them from two points to five, while Atletico Madrid remained on four.

At the same time, the two games between Eindhoven and Atletico Madrid are over. Eindhoven has one win and one tie, and they have the upper hand in the relationship between the two sides.

And considering that Inter Milan is already out, now it is Eindhoven and Atletico Madrid competing for the right to qualify for the group.

In terms of points, Eindhoven is one point ahead of Atletico Madrid. In terms of victory and defeat, Eindhoven also has an advantage.

If Eindhoven can beat Liverpool away in this game, they can qualify as long as they draw in the last game.
