I always think liverpool’s centre backs are perfect in defending strikers like haaland, lewandowski. They have problems with fast and small attackers like trossard, messi
You can tell VVD takes his match ups with Haaland personally. Almost seems to man-mark him across a lot of his games. He shows a ton of respect to him too. He's never as cool-headed as he typically is if Haaland is around
I mean the guy is 1.95m tall, he’s also faster and stronger than you, with impeccable timing and reads. Kinda hard to make a better CB than what VVD possessed
@@footballworld815 Yeah, he's performing really bad, just 1 goal a game, i hope he comes back to scoring hat tricks every game or he's gonna be a flop 😥
With smaller players VVD restrains himself, with Haaland he can flex to the max. They both enjoy the challenge. VVD has 10 years experience on Haaland. That's alot!! With time Haaland will learn to combine technicality and flair with his brute force. Then and only then will he be a BEAST💪🏽.
Haaland is crap with the ball at his feet far from the opposition goal, surrounded by 2-4 players. He's rubbish in tight spaces. He's not a complete footballer. Scoring a bunch of goals doesn't make you a beast of a footballer. A goal machine? Yes. Just a robot, that's all. He can never get to the level of the football greatest.

@@Grandmaster_Dragonborn Both are great and the battle between them is a great watch. Elite athletes tbh. Both deserve massive respect but too many trolls and plastics that don't appreciate this good rivalry
Haaland is an absolute nightmare matchup for any defender but VD is world class and one of the best defenders in the world hands down. His positioning and awareness is absolutely masterful.
I just realised both Haaland and minamino played against Liverpool at Salzburg and Klopp signed minamino cos he was impressed by him. Just imagine if Klopp was impressed by Haaland instead and signed him for Liverpool
What im saying is Haaland should have scored in that game, because he outpaced, outpositioned his opponents (VVD@Gomez) to get to those chances, simply a day off for him
Wrong decisions and good Allison stop him. Van Dijk didnt have control on Haaland, especially first half of the game. It has been 50/50 all the matches. Haaland was more tecnical, intense and faster for Salzburg. But a lot injuries has change the way to play to be a better player.
@@oslogutt80 Lmao chance in what? Head, tap-ins, and with no defender? Haaland is sh#t in open play against any defender even in this worst time of the football era full of noobs.
Haaland may be a bit afraid and have a good amount of respect for Van Dijk. As he should. He can learn the most from this man. Van Dijk got 10 years on him after all. Imagine how much you knew as a 30yr old vs 20yr old. Plus it's focused into one specific thing. It's not his life his learning from. Van Dijk is so far unpenetrateable for Haaland.. funny yeah
If you respect your opponent because he is older, you will never get anywhere in the game. You don't "learn" directly from your opponents, you learn how to beat them. Your elders are not your superiors.
Ruben Diaz and Rudiger are talking, Ruben says, I would like to be like Van Dijk, Rudiger asks him why, and Ruben answers, because he is as strong as a horse
acceleration > haaland agility > halaand strength > Van dijk energy > Van dijk Speed = Van dijk and Halaand * height * Van Dijk 1.96 m halaand 1.95 m weight * Van Dijk 96 - 97 kg ( 212 lb ) halaand 90.5 kg ( 199 lb )
Two big strong fast strikers against each other, always interesting. Funny in a heading duel they're both trying to head the ball, only one a few centimeters above the other one.
the tough thing for both of them is to try to tackle each other since they are similar in size. They have to exert a lot of energy to balance themselves and tackle someone who's big. Combine that with running and VvD needs to work his hardest just to keep up w Håland and also put enough force in his tackles. Håland can focus on just keeping his balance and the ball. What they need is a short and compact cb w van Dijk who can tackle Håland if van Dijk is somewhere else
I guess it was always going to take another guy with a pony tail to stop Halaand and his pony tail. I guess they cancelled out each other's pony tails.
This either shows VVD getting in between haaland and the passer or halaand getting a shot off how ppl watch this and says VVD got the best of Haaland baffles me
It's not like halla d is trying to dribble past van dijk. So I don't know what mote do you expect van dijk to do- other than blocking the service and putting halland under pressure and he readys for shot. You logic is as good as other people saying "Halland is not the best right now, he only scores tap in"
Love van Dijk, Love Haaland...this clip doesn't show van Dijk in his best form. Allso, his knee injury took away his briljant form. Now he is just a defender....nothing special, hope he will be briljant when worldcup starts.
Imagine being as tall as either Haaland or VDD, and then having to deal with another guy of the same height for 90 minutes all of a sudden. Literal battle of the giants, lmao.
Vinicius says HI VVD. Maldini laughing, Cannavaro Smirking, Nesta spilled his coffee, Stam said he will grow Hair, Vidic said Hola Amigo. You cant compare past defenders with current ones. Past defenders earned their spot in the team because they need the job. So they give full heart and soul into the play. Cannavaro doesnt care if he breaks his leg as long as he could prevent them from scoring, thats leadership, thats passion, an art lost.. Today we have Van dijk praising himself as the best, wheres the humility? Sure he is good, but makes you wonder his passion for defending, great defenders dont allow goals scored and being in low table(this season) They rally the team and prevent the goals whenever possible. Madrid just put 5 into the net, how can u still say VVD is the best in the league now?
Van Dijk had to be 100% perfect and fews steps Ahead of Haaland to deny him any chance of getting the ball. Haaland still managed to break through the defence

Amazing Battle...
Haaland is an absolute nightmare matchup for any defender but VD is world class and one of the best defenders in the world hands down. His positioning and awareness is absolutely masterful.
Striker and defender rivalry could be interesting for this decade. I hope they both will have a long career like Messy and Ronaldo
One is 22 the other over 30, so wont be a long rivalry
Both are gifted, size, speed and flair. Reminds me the Drogba vs Yaya Toure battle.
I just realised both Haaland and minamino played against Liverpool at Salzburg and Klopp signed minamino cos he was impressed by him. Just imagine if Klopp was impressed by Haaland instead and signed him for Liverpool
Halland wanted to move where he would be a starter. He opted for minamino as the second best option.
Best striker ever and best cb ever=Liverpool wins all
Impossible halland agent in that time is mino raiola and liverpool have bad relation to mino
as if, salzburg have no intention to sell haaland to liverpool.
He can't go to Liverpool cos it has a lot of stars
So far in City, Haaland hasn't been able to do anything when coming up against Van Dijk the wall
You must be blind, got to several chances against him on the weekend, only to be stopped by Alisson
@@Kat-jk7zq Most his shots were poor and directly on Alisson. Haaland has gotten pocketed by Van Dijk

Alisson too
This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. I think they both are destined to do this forever.
Most important is Van Dijk has won 5 out of 6 games he played against Haaland. The last1-1 draw between Holland and Norway.
Until last year, Van Dijk played in vastly superior teams.
This is a boxing match that needs to happen
Haaland: scoring against almost every club in the entire premier league. Van Dijk: I’m going to end your whole career
