Head coach Jurgen Klopp contracted pneumonia and was forced to stay home in quarantine, and he seems to be calling the game from home for this one as well.

Chelsea
There's been a bit of a furore lately, with Lukaku making statements to the public that he regrets coming to
Chelsea
, dissatisfied with the team's tactics, is going to ask
FC Internazionale Milano (football club)
The fan apologized and said that he might return to Inter, but it has now come to light that this was actually a visit three weeks ago, and Tuchel said that Lukaku was indeed a bit frustrated at the time, but after talking about it everything was fine, but because of the festering relationship of this incident Tuchel has had to leave Lukaku out of the roster for the time being.
Chelsea
The injury situation is much better now, except for the absence of James at right guard, with Azpilicueta filling in at right guard, the right center back position going to junior Chalobah, Kovacic and Kante playing in the back, and Mount, Pulisic, and Havertz on the front line.
Liverpool (England)
On this side Robertson was out due to a red card, Tsimikas replaced him at left back, the midfield was Henderson, Fabinho, Milner, and the forward line remained the same, with both teams coincidentally playing a more rigid position in the midfield.
It's been a surprise since the start of the game. It's only been five minutes.
Chelsea
The defender of the game fumbled a long pass that led to Mane getting the ball to Salah, who took a direct kick at the 17-yard first down that was fortunately blocked by Mendy, and then after a minute.
Chelsea
This side also plays a long pass, and it's the turn of
Liverpool (England)
Arnold misses a clearance and the chance is even more dangerous as Pulisic gets a one-two in front of the goal, but he doesn't shoot and tries to outwit the keeper, being
Liverpool (England)
Substitute goalkeeper Kelleher made the stop.
The result was that in the 8th minute, Jota's cross from the right side could have been easily kicked away by Chalobah, but he suddenly lowered his body to try to head it off, but the position was too forced and led to a fall, and Mane easily took the ball and dinked it over the keeper and shot it on goal, and Azpilicueta couldn't block his powerful shot even though he desperately tried to rush back.
Chalobah's recent performances are actually very good, maybe he was too nervous too, this ball was not too much of a problem, it should be Mane behind him who put too much pressure on him.
In fact, after watching the game for a while, you will find that both sides are too tired and too nervous, so a bunch of mistakes, in fact, in the first half of the first two teams each have two fatal errors, if they are grasped, 15 minutes into the first half would have been 2-2, but the
Liverpool (England)
The forward line was still in great form and at the 25 mark Arnold sent a straight kick from midfield straight to the front right, Salah got to the ball and headed for the penalty area, shooting straight through Mendy's ten fingers from a dead center position in the 6 yard box near the end line.
Chelsea
Chalobah on the right was unstable tonight, Azpilicueta is actually dangerous if he is not in the right center back position, and M. Alonso on the left has been participating in the attack with a good performance, but can't defend Salah, Tuchel seems to be precisely for this reason that Kovacic and Kante are two powerful backs, which is to assist in defending the two wings. But
Liverpool (England)
It's a direct ball over the top, skipping the back of the net and letting the forward line face directly into the
Chelsea
The three center backs, apparently, worked very successfully.
Originally leading by 2 goals 25 minutes into the first half, there couldn't have been a better situation to be in, the
Liverpool (England)
could take control, and they actually did, intending to kill the game if they found a fatal opportunity to counterattack again, but the
Chelsea
That's when the concentration began, and they've determined
Liverpool (England)
All three midfielders are in a defensive position that won't move up, and Rudiger is directly on Salah as the

Very focused on getting the ball to him, the in-form Rudiger has defused deadly attacks.
then
Chelsea
Starting to get Kante to press forward, Kovacic followed in support, relying on Kante's mobility to give the three agile attackers up front more space to penetrate, and they were trying to play straight at the
Liverpool (England)
Behind the center backs, Fabinho's poor night was exposed as soon as Kante stepped up, and even if Henderson and Milner both stayed back, it wasn't easy to defend.
Chelsea
Because they often send a kick straight to the box, not only the three attackers in the insertion, but also M. Alonso will run in, in this side of the instant can get the numerical advantage, especially Arnold defense is not in good condition, the left back without Robertson in the really hardness of the defense is also poor.
40 minutes before the end of the first half, M.Alonso in the right side of the open positional ball was blocked, Kovacic in the top of the penalty area arc went up directly with a flick shot hit the speed and dead center, hit the upper right door beam bouncing into the goal, this is his career so far one of the most exciting goals, this goal and Xavier (Chen Changyuan) in the first time against Singapore that make-up shot is the same (Xavier that ball make-up shot The action is faster).
As it turned out, just 45 minutes into the first half.
Chelsea
Launching multiple people to press upfield, the inconsistent

The backfield kept trying to clear the ball but couldn't kick it away and the front three failed to come back to pick it up for a split second by the
Chelsea
After a series of broken up passes and forward passes, Rudiger finally kicked the ball forward to Kante on the left, Kante made a cool turn before the ball arrived and then a diagonal flick sent the ball into the penalty area, Pulisic killed the ball in the 12-yard box to the left of the penalty area with a left-footed shot straight through the far post.
