There is another reason why Liverpool fans are particularly angry with Bruno and Manchester United, and that is what Jassim said before the season.

At that time, when Jassim talked about the introduction of this 200 million euros, considering a player who once set a record for English football transfers, he said: "He can become the next Graeme Souness."

Perhaps to fans of other clubs, this is nothing, just a common comparison. But for Liverpool fans, this is unacceptable.

Souness moved to Liverpool in 1978 with a record transfer fee between English clubs. In his first season with the team, he immediately became the core of the team's midfield and helped the team win the Champions League trophy. In seven seasons with Liverpool, Souness helped Liverpool win three Champions League titles, five top-flight league titles, seven domestic cup titles and other awards, and is recognized as one of the best midfielders in Liverpool's history.

As a formidable midfielder, Souness is known as a tough guy, but has a delicate sense of ball. He is called "the beast who can play the violin."

Souness is a legend in the history of Liverpool Club and an eternal hero in the hearts of Liverpool fans. How can the upstart Manchester United team and a Portuguese man be compared with Souness?

Comparing Souness with a Portuguese is simply an insult to Souness!

As for Souness himself, who is a Sky Sports commentator, he did not comment on this, it must be out of favor.

But we are not afraid, we are fans, we can scold whomever we want, you can't block my mouth, we have the freedom to scold!

In this way, Bruno became one of the most hated people by Liverpool fans.

The referee's whistle sounded, and the Liverpool fans in the stands cheered loudly for Henderson. Bruno is perhaps the Manchester United player they hate most because "a Portuguese dares to compare with our legendary hero Souness".

"Go home, Portuguese boy!"

United took the lead three minutes into the game, much to the pain of Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.

In today's duel between the best, Mourinho is temporarily in the lead.

"This is not the place you should be, idiot!"

What should I do if I fall behind?

Klopp does not plan to modify his tactics because he requires the team to attack the opponent, which is consistent with the current situation. Liverpool, who are lagging behind, must attack if they want to equalize the score. So he sat on the bench, saying nothing and making no gestures.

Kanter asked doubtfully: "Psychological effect?"

His physical strength and speed can ensure that he appears where he is needed in time, and his bounce and header give him the upper hand in header disputes.

Klopp is 49 years old and Mourinho is 53 years old. Both of them are among the best coaches in world football today.

This time, when he faced Henderson, Henderson did not give him a chance to fake a move, but directly knocked Bruno to the ground while changing lines.

Less than a minute later, Bruno made a long pass from the midfielder. Rashford stopped the ball with his chest at the top of the penalty area and then shot low with his left foot, which was saved by Karius.

In the absence of Rooney, the team's leading free kicker, the right to take the free kick fell into the hands of top star Bruno.

Premier League players are generally tall, and 1.8 meters is considered a "normal height." However, when competing with these tall men for headers, Bruno is rarely at a disadvantage. On the one hand, it is his excellent physical fitness; His judgment of where the football will land is very accurate.

Amid the curses and boos from Liverpool, Manchester United's players ended their goal celebration.

The German head coach imagined before the game that Manchester United's defense was unstable. As long as Liverpool could continue to put pressure on Manchester United and the attack continued, his team would definitely score first.

When Ibrahimovic was provoking Liverpool fans, Bruno was talking to Kante in a low voice: "Look, scoring goals is useless, right?"

In the 17th minute, full-back Valencia stepped in and passed in. Ashley Young shot directly from the left side of the penalty area with his left foot and was blocked by Liverpool right back Klein. Young reacted quickly and shot another shot from a small angle, but it was directly confiscated by goalkeeper Karius.

Since Liverpool cannot attack for a while, Manchester United led by Bruno will not wait politely for Liverpool to "reciprocate".

"Of course we are going to win." Bruno smiled, "But even if you beat Liverpool 10:0, they will still scold us the next time they meet us, and even because you won too hard, they will The scolding will be harsher, so don’t pay attention to them, don’t care whether they scold or not, and don’t think about how to get them to shut up. If others just hate us, they will find out what we do. There's a reason. As I said, take these scoldings and boos as compliments!"

It was only three minutes into the game and he was in no rush to make adjustments.

Liverpool, who were lagging behind, planned to organize a counterattack, but it was stopped by Bruno. When attacking, Bruno can reach the front of the opponent's penalty area and make key passes. When defending, he can return to the center back and build a trustworthy barrier in front of the back line.

In fact, it is not that Klopp is a poor coach. On the contrary, his coaching achievements have always been recognized. He once coached Mainz when it was about to fall into the regional league and led Mainz to the Bundesliga as the third-placed player in the Bundesliga.

Once they take the lead, the game will be put into Liverpool's orbit. In the next game, won't Manchester United be led by Liverpool?

Another benefit of excellent awareness is that Bruno has a high success rate in one-on-one defense.

"No, it's not a psychological effect, but a real compliment. When you hear an opponent insult you like this in the future, you should laugh, not get angry, because they are scared and you can win easily." Bruno shot Patting Kanter on the back, he accelerated towards his position.

"Then we will win this game, and it will be a big win!" Kanter said unwillingly.

Who would have thought that it was not his Liverpool that scored first, but Manchester United, and the goal came so fast and happened so suddenly.

He believes that the time to score Manchester United's goal is not too far away.

Bruno turned a deaf ear to the cheers from the visiting fans in the stands and got up from the ground.

Klopp and Mourinho are somewhat similar. Neither of them ever played in the top leagues during their playing days. Mourinho has been in many teams and has been to many places, which has increased his knowledge, while Klopp has never played in the top league. Lopp devoted his entire career to Mainz.

After scoring the goal, Ibrahimovic put his index finger in front of his mouth as a "shut up" gesture. He pointed at the stands where the Liverpool fans were, only to receive more violent curses and boos.

All these make it not easy for Liverpool players to easily get past Bruno and directly threaten Manchester United's defense and goal.

The referee on duty for this game, Rafati, gave Henderson a verbal warning without taking out a card. Then he awarded Manchester United a free kick that was 23 meters away from the goal and slightly to the right.

………………

He was unprepared for Manchester United's performance and was caught off guard.

"A Souness who just lies on the ground and fakes injuries? Our Souness is a tough guy!"

Kante looked at Bruno's back, then turned to look at the Liverpool fans in the stands waving their middle fingers wildly, thoughtfully.

………………

After being continuously besieged by Manchester United, Liverpool finally planned a relatively successful attack. Henderson made a long pass from the backcourt, but the four defenders of Manchester United failed to prevent offside. Sturridge succeeded in countering the offside and inserted into the right side of the penalty area. He lobbed the ball directly from 11 meters away from the goal, but the football went over the crossbar.

"Don't insult our idol, compare yourself to Souness? You don't deserve it!!"

………………

………………

In his memory, Ibrahimovic also said the same thing as Bruno. And the scene that happened in front of him today only increased Kanter's impression in this regard.

Originally, Manchester United's continuous attacks had made Klopp unable to sit still, but Sturridge's attack made him settle down on the chair again.

While coaching Dortmund, he led the Hornets to end Bayern Munich's dominance of the Bundesliga, won two Bundesliga championship trophies, and led Dortmund to the Champions League final.

He knows that Manchester United's defenders are used to offside, but offside is a double-edged sword. As long as Liverpool insists on passing the ball through, even if they are offside nineteen times in the whole game, as long as one succeeds, it will be fatal.

Seeing Bruno being knocked to the ground, Liverpool fans cheered loudly, cheered for Henderson, and kept mocking Bruno.

Klopp will regret his decision a little after the game.

In the 22nd minute, Bruno once again played a one-two with Ashley Young and then came up with the ball.

Klopp has been in charge of Dortmund for seven years and is the longest consecutive coach in the history of the Hornets. He led Dortmund to break Bayern Munich's monopoly and win two Bundesliga championships, a German Cup championship, and three German Super Cup championships. In the 2011-12 season, they achieved the first domestic double championship in team history. In the 2012-13 season, they led the team to the Champions League final, adding Robert Lewandowski, Mario Gotze, Marco Reus, and Marco Reus to the team. Hummels and many other young players have been trained to become the world's top stars.

Although Ibrahimovic also has a good ability to score free kicks, he did not come over to compete with Bruno for the right to take the free kick.

In fact, in today's game, Mourinho has made it clear that Bruno has the right to take the penalty kick.
