(Baonghean.vn) - The confrontation between two representatives from the Premier League in the European Super Cup match was very exciting and dramatic with 4 goals scored after 120 minutes of intense competition. On the penalty spot, the reigning Champions League champions with their bravery won.

Obviously, the shocking 0-4 defeat to Manchester United at the weekend made Chelsea enter the match with a mentality that could not be as good as the reigning Champions League champions when the "Red Devils of Merseyside" started the new season with an impressive 4-1 victory over Norwich.

In the first minutes of the match, Liverpool attacked first. In the 5th minute, Mane volleyed the ball and it hit Christensen's hand, but the referee denied the red team a penalty.

20 minutes passed, Liverpool still tirelessly pressed the field with total pressing play, making the reigning Europa League champions always seem to be in a state of alarm.

However, in an offside trap, Liverpool's defense made a mistake to let Pedro escape in the 22nd minute but the striker's shot hit the crossbar. After this situation, Liverpool's performance slowed down and that was an opportunity for Coach Lampard's students to raise their squad.

In the 36th minute of the match, after his teammates missed opportunities, Giroud received a perfect pass from Pulisic and finished past Adrian to open the score for Chelsea.

Pulisic continued to be the most outstanding player on the field in the first half when he put the ball in the net but VAR intervened and denied the goal because this player was offside. At the end of the first half, Chelsea temporarily led Liverpool with a score of 1-0.

After the break, Jurgen Klopp brought Firmino on and the substitution immediately worked, just 1 minute after the referee started the second half, Firmino broke the offside trap and created a delicate assist for Mane to score the equalizer 1-1. The remaining time of the second half, the two teams played an attractive attack but the final score of the 90 minutes of official play remained unchanged.

Entering extra time, the combination of Firmino's pass back and Mane's shot hitting the crossbar brought Liverpool to a temporary 2-1 lead in the 95th minute. But that temporary result was soon erased when just 6 minutes later, goalkeeper Adrian fouled Abraham in the penalty area and on the 11m mark, Jorginho did not miss to equalize 2-2. In the remaining time of both extra times, the cautious play forced both teams to go hand in hand to the penalty spot full of luck.
