Anfield reverberated with the singing of the Red Army fans. The scene of the Red Army fans holding their scarves high in the air was spectacular.
The Red Army players smiled with joy at the end of the game. Then they went to each stand to express their gratitude to the fans.
Many AC Milan players walked quickly into the players' tunnel dejectedly.
The most helpless player in the game was Ibrahimovic. He only touched the ball nine times!
On average, he touched the ball once every ten minutes and only shot twice!
The statistics were simply appalling. He stood on the pitch with his hands on his hips and watched the Liverpool players celebrate.
In the end, they still lost!
Shaking his head, he bowed his head slightly and walked toward the players' tunnel.
The Liverpool players began to calm down after they returned to the locker room.
They had won a lot of honors in the past two years. The reversal of a life-or-death battle did not make them conceited or ecstatic. It only strengthened their confidence and belief in the future.
Comain said to the reporters at the post-match press conference, "Liverpool's performance today was close to perfect. We showed the qualities of the defending champions and showed the strength of the champions. At the same time, I want to say that the Liverpool fans were amazing. They gave us the illusion that we always had one more player than AC Milan in Anfield!
This was a game that the coaches, players, and fans united to achieve. I'm very happy that we won! "
Regarding Suarez's hat-trick, Comain smiled and said, "When Suarez joined Liverpool, we thought he had the potential to become a world-class striker. But he could not become world-class at Ajax. He needed a bigger stage, so we brought him to Anfield. In the past year or so, he has further improved in this team. He is now one of the top ten strikers in the world, and in the near future, he will become one of the top three best strikers in the world. His performance today was unparalleled."
AC Milan manager Allegri said helplessly after the game, "Liverpool showed a strong fighting power at home. Our performance today was not up to standard. The rear defensive line was the main reason for the game's demise. But today, not many teams can beat Liverpool in Anfield, especially in the Champions League.
This is not the end of AC Milan, we will continue to move forward! "
.....
Fleet Street gave Liverpool's comeback against AC Milan a high evaluation, especially the analysis that Liverpool was not only competing in multiple competitions this season, but also competing for the title in multiple competitions!
The Times published a special report titled "The Red Battleship!"
"In the past two seasons, Liverpool has completed their revival in England and the great achievement of restoring Europe. If the first season was when they fought their way to the throne with great momentum, then the second season was when they firmly secured their position as the European overlord.
In the third season of the club's change of ownership and manager, the more mature and confident Liverpool has become a team from an alien planet!
Real Madrid at the Bernabéu is known as Galactica, but this Galactica has always crashed on Earth.
But Liverpool's red fleet is hovering over the Earth, shrouding the entire Grassi world in its red light!
Liverpool's third season was not as simple as competing in multiple competitions. They were competing for the title in all competitions!
The Community Shield, the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup, and the EFL Cup. Liverpool had already won four trophies this season.
Now, they were in the top eight of the FA Cup, the top eight of the Champions League, and the top of the Premier League.
The most difficult month of February had passed. Liverpool had broken through the EFL Cup final, the FA Cup against the Red Devils, the Champions League against AC Milan, and other thrilling games.
Liverpool's performance had fluctuated as they competed for the title in all competitions, which was expected.
After the current difficulties, perhaps the most difficult period ahead of Liverpool will be in April!
Once the Champions League and FA Cup advance to the semifinals, coupled with the Premier League title defense not falling behind, then the games in April will be the most difficult. A slight mistake in a game may affect a battle line to the brink of elimination. Then, will it cause a chain reaction that will lead to a total collapse?
We don't know, but another assumption is that if Liverpool overcomes all the difficulties, the red battleship will completely dominate every corner of England after these difficulties. Their unshakable position in Europe will be even more secure, and their achievements will be unprecedented! "
Fleet Street was very respectful, or it could be said that they used the old method of flattery to kill.
In the 28th round of the Premier League that followed, Liverpool suffered a Waterloo.
Sunderland, who had made many powerhouses suffer this season, once again brought out an iron bucket formation at the Stadium of Light.
Martin O 'Neill, who used to make a fortune in Leicester City by relying on defensive counterattacks, almost made it difficult for Liverpool to move an inch in the game against Liverpool.
Nine players defended, one player attacked.
Sunderland played to the extreme of defensive counterattacks and were extremely patient.
Liverpool had just experienced the exhaustion of the Champions League in the week. Coupled with the away game, they were unable to break through the opponent's iron bucket formation for a while. Instead, they were almost killed by Sunderland. Fortunately, Tiago Silva saved the Liverpool team in front of the goal.
The 0: 0 score left Liverpool full of resentment.
Their top position could change in this round!
Manchester United played steadily at Old Trafford and defeated West Bromwich Albion 2: 0.
Chelsea narrowly defeated Stoke City 1: 0 at Stamford Bridge with the help of Drogba's killer move.
Arsenal was the first to fall behind to their opponent Newcastle United at the Emirates Stadium, but with Robin van Persie's heroic play, Arsenal equalized the score and defeated Newcastle United in the fifth minute of injury stoppage time!
2:1
The Gunners got a crucial victory.
Tottenham Hotspur, who had been defeated by strong teams in a row, suffered three consecutive defeats at Goodison Park. Everton defeated Tottenham Hotspur 1: 0, which made it difficult for Tottenham Hotspur to maintain their fourth place.
At least regarding Tottenham Hotspur's position, Fleet Street's prediction was more accurate.
After experiencing the loss of three points against the powerhouse teams, Tottenham Hotspur's morale began to decline and their performance continued to decline.
The decline of the losing streak was likely to be unstoppable.
Manchester City's expedition to Wales and Swansea City in this round.
As long as they beat Swansea City, Manchester City would be able to reverse Liverpool and return to the top!
But after 90 minutes of the game, Manchester City created a shocking upset in this round!
It was even more unexpected than Liverpool's away game tie with Sunderland!
In the 83rd minute of the game, Swansea City's substitute, Luke Moore, scored the final goal with a header to Manchester City!
Miraculously, Liverpool retained their top position in the league in this round!
Liverpool 65 points.
Manchester City 63 points.
Manchester United 63 points.
Tottenham Hotspur 53 points.
Chelsea 49 points.
Arsenal 49 points.
Newcastle United 43 points.
