Chapter 113 Racing with Football

It was expected that Li Qing would score goals in his first attack in the games he came on as a substitute. What was unexpected was that Li Qing was not the terminator of Liverpool's offense.

But for Liverpool fans, it doesn't matter who scores the goal, as long as the team they support can score.

The Liverpool players celebrated the goal, while the Arsenal players kept shaking their heads in frustration. Sanchez, who was in excellent condition, let out a long sigh and thought: "I can't carry him..."

Liverpool once again led Arsenal by two goals. Klopp was not complacent. After a simple celebration of the goal, he quickly brought right back Klein over to explain some adjustments after the game restarted.

Wenger has no choice. The team is two goals behind and must strengthen its offense, otherwise it will be difficult to score again as time goes by.

Before the game restarted, Arsenal made substitution adjustments, and Walcott replaced defensive midfielder Coquelin.

As soon as the broadcast screen showed the substitution electronic board on the sidelines, Lex Sports commentator Zhan Jun said in a deep voice: "Wenger is going to fight for the rest of the game!"

Klopp saw Wenger's substitution and looked over with interest.

Walcott is characterized by his speed. If his team leads by two goals, the defense will definitely shrink, and the space left behind will inevitably decrease, which means that the sprint space that Walcott needs is gone.

In this case, what's the use of replacing it?

Do you want to use him as the second point in front of the goal to complete the shot?

Judging from Walcott's skills, he can barely be used as a second forward.

Giroud acts as a beacon in front, and Walcott is ready to go behind.

The tactics are good, but I don't know how to use them.

After clearing his mind, Klopp looked at the court. To be precise, he was looking at Li Qing. Every time the team replaced Li Qing, there would be an absolute chance to score. He believed that there would be more in the next game.

Li Qing, who averages more than two goals per game, will he not score in this game?

This possibility is possible, but it is definitely not high!

The game restarted. Arsenal, who stepped up their attack, were full of momentum and hit the Liverpool penalty area in the blink of an eye. At the highest point, Giroud was unable to take off because Klavanka was in front of him, and the football was pushed out by Matip.

Xhaka, who was ambushing in front of the penalty area, aimed at the incoming ball and chose to volley directly without stopping the ball. Unfortunately, he failed to hit the right spot and fired an anti-aircraft gun from a long distance.

Two minutes later, Arsenal's offense came back. Walcott received Giroud's header and chose to stop and pass, speeding up and dribbling the ball past Emre Can.

While running, he looked up at goalkeeper Mignolet's position.

"Theo Walcott——"

With Sky TV commentator Andy Gray shouting, Walcott fired angrily from about 28 meters away from the goal.

The long-range shot was powerful and heavy. Mignolet reacted quickly and knocked the football back with a single punch. Coutinho made an overhead kick from outside the penalty area. Since the ball landed outside the running range of Li Qing, the ball was controlled by Koscielny. , Arsenal continued to attack.

Klopp, who was standing on the sidelines, was slightly worried. Arsenal continued to attack without his own players touching the ball a few times. This was very dangerous.

However, Klopp's worries were quickly dispelled by Li Qing's outstanding performance. Li Qing continuously dribbled the ball through limited opportunities, causing Arsenal players Xhaka and Bellerin to receive two yellow cards within three minutes.

Two key players received yellow cards, and Arsenal's defense became extremely tight when switching from offense to defense. As a result, Monreal and Bellerin did not dare to press forward too much in the team's offense, fearing that Lee would be caught in the space behind them. Qing and Ma Nei took advantage.

In the blink of an eye, the game reached the 75th minute. At this critical point of physical fitness, the starting players of both sides showed a significant decline in physical fitness. In order to restore their physical fitness, Arsenal players' offense consciously slowed down the pace.

Bellerin, who participated in the attack, used his right foot to complete a 45-degree direct cross from the left. Because the landing point was closer to the goalkeeper, Mignolet attacked and picked up the football.

Mignolet received a direct run-up. He grabbed the football with his right hand and used the inertia of his body to flick it. The football quickly flew to his side about 20 meters away from the center line.

There, there is Li Qing!

"aoaoaooaoooo——"

The Liverpool fans at Anfield instantly became excited.

The holding midfielder Xhaka pounced on Li Qing immediately, even if he committed a foul.

Li Qing had a wide field of vision. From the corner of his eye, he could already see Xhaka running murderously from the right rear. The football thrown by Mignolet was moving diagonally outwards, and there was a ball in front of him that accelerated. His heart suddenly moved.

I saw Li Qing taking the initiative to run back. His raised left foot seemed to be about to catch the ball but suddenly gave way.

Lex Sports commentator Zhan Jun, who was staring closely at the broadcast, raised his voice an octave higher: "Li Qing didn't catch the ball, he gave the ball over!"

At the same time, Li Qing used his super explosive power to move one step sideways to the right. Using his right foot as the axis, he completed a 90-degree turn to the right and rear, faced the direction of attack again, and then pursued and rolled to the right quickly against the turf. road football.

Xhaka, who was mentally prepared for a foul, had no idea that Li Qing would choose to let the ball pass. He subconsciously raised his right foot as he braked suddenly, trying to trip Li Qing who started.

But Li Qing moved a step laterally to the center in advance, and it was this step that caused him to deviate from the area covered by Xhaka's defense.

Bellerin was adjusted to the left after the team conceded the third goal. He saw the football flying toward Li Qing and returned to defense at full speed.

Xhaka's defense helped Bellerin gain time to return to defense at high speed. Li Qing was extremely explosive. It only took less than two seconds from first gear to fifth gear. He quickly chased the football that seemed to be about to miss the right sideline. .

Can't go out of bounds!

Several previous counterattacks were blocked by Arsenal with fouls. Now that he finally got a chance, Li Qing naturally didn't want to give up.

Bellerin, who was returning to defense at full speed, gradually slowed down because according to his judgment, the football was very likely to roll out of the right sideline before Li Qing could catch up.

Logically speaking, since they are all professional players, this judgment should be the same. Bellerin is curious, why does Li Qing continue to pursue him?

Out of defensive instinct, Bellerin ran back in a straight line.

Li Qing's naturally vertical arms swing rapidly, driving his powerful legs to accelerate and alternately tiptoe to the ground, like a red supercar running at top speed, with countless grass clippings rolled up on the soles of his shoes.

The on-site director gave a long shot, and the fans in front of the TV could clearly see the football quickly approaching the right sideline.

In the lower left corner of the screen, there is Li Qing, wearing the red jersey No. 55, approaching the football that is about to roll off the sideline at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Leshi sports commentator Zhan Jun frowned and said: "Can Li Qing catch up with the football before it appears?"

"Oh-My-God! It's a race against a football!"

exclaimed Sky commentator Andy Gray.
