Who cares how old you are?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why Klopp was willing to change the team’s tactics for Wang Shuo, deploying a 4-4-1-1 formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kramny was right. This was a huge gamble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had made a similar gamble last season, and it had paid off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he decided to bet again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He firmly believed that Wang Shuo would not let him down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「8:25 PM, August 9th, Capital Time.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>China’s most famous sports forum exploded!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furious fans spammed posts and comments, paying their \"kind\" and \"enthusiastic\" respects to the female elders in the forum moderator’s family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason: the promised live stream was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This completely enraged the tens of thousands of fans on the forum who had been waiting for days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You son of a bitch moderator, get out here and explain! You took our money but didn’t deliver! Where’s the promised live stream?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The match is about to start!

Do you people have any credibility at all?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, calm down. The website didn’t want this to happen either. The streaming source they’d arranged just fell through without warning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, there was nothing they could do. The channel provider in Germany was unreliable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’ll definitely refund the money.

Only five minutes left.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the torrent of righteous indignation from the forum users, the moderator quickly appeared to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The moment we got the news yesterday that there was no local broadcast in Germany, I immediately contacted a user in London, Green Grass by the Field.

Of the four stands, only two have roofs. I was in a hurry to buy a ticket and ended up with a standing ticket in an uncovered section.
