Chapter 309: Curve Shot and Contribution

"aoaoaoaooooo——"

Huge cheers rang out over the Anfield stadium. Aguero, Sane and Sterling raised their eyebrows in displeasure. They quickly turned a corner and pounced on Li Qing, who was receiving the ball from outside the arc of the center circle.

Li Qing didn't panic and didn't pass the ball. Instead, he took the initiative to dribble the ball towards Aguero, who was nearest.

"What does he want to do?"

Aguero didn't know what Li Qing wanted to do, and his raised brows furrowed even deeper.

There was no extra time to think. Aguero stretched out his left foot to try to steal the ball. Li Qing slammed the football to the right on the inside of the instep of his left foot. The football almost brushed against the toe of Aguero's left foot and rolled over, running from the right. Sane's eyes lit up when he arrived, he spotted the football moving forward and thrust forward with his right foot.

Li Qing moved faster and dunked the football with his left foot on the inside of the instep of his right foot to the left front, which is behind Aguero.

“Fried meatballs!”

Following a loud shout from Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun, Li Qing sped forward, and instead raised his right foot to trip Li Qing, Sane only kicked a ball of air.

Manchester City's forward midfielder De Bruyne was not impulsive. He stayed prepared and cooperated with Fernandinho to jointly defend Li Qing.

Li Qing, who had a wide field of vision, smiled slightly and did not make any more breakthroughs. He used the outside instep of his left foot to lift the ball, and the football rolled quickly against the ground towards Mane who was receiving the ball on the left.

Although Li Qing's initial breakthrough did not pose an actual threat, the fanatical atmosphere in the audience has increased significantly, which indirectly gave confidence to his teammates.

Manchester City, who visited Anfield Stadium, played a more conservative game compared to the first round. Gundogan and Fernandinho guarded the center, which was enough to tell the clues.

In addition, Otamendi's position is relatively high, obviously to cover the space behind Fernandinho and Gundogan.

Li Qing had a broad vision and quickly noticed the obvious gaps exposed by Manchester City's defensive system.

In the sixth minute, Li Qing received a pass from Henderson and suddenly tilted his upper body forward to trick Gundogan and Fernandinho into taking the initiative to retreat. Otamendi also consciously moved forward and approached. Gundogan and Fernandinho.

Immediately, Li Qing pulled the ball with the sole of his left foot and stopped suddenly. He looked at the direction of Firmino's advance and rubbed the ball behind Otamendi who was in a good position.

Firmino was very smart. He did not rush to grab the spot immediately. Instead, he blocked his position in advance and did not give Stones a chance to clear the ball in advance.

Otamendi realized that the situation was not good, and when he took off while retreating, he failed to hit the football. He Wei, the commentator of China Channel 5, exclaimed: "Otamendi is on top!"

Guardiola's heart skipped a beat in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, and he felt strongly uneasy.

In sharp contrast, Liverpool head coach Klopp took two steps forward excitedly, without even noticing that his upper body had reached the sideline.

While running, Firmino used his chest to stop the ball to the front right, and then used his body to get stuck between Stones and the football. His national team teammate Ederson abandoned the goal.

Firmino came to the right side of the penalty area and shot furiously. Ederson, who was attacking, looked at the football flying towards him and subconsciously raised his left arm.

Just like this, when he raised his arm, the football hit Ederson's left forearm. The straight-flying football changed its trajectory and rubbed the goal crossbar with an obvious arc and went out of the bottom line.

"wowowooooooo——"

Liverpool fans subconsciously burst out with regrets in the sky above Anfield.

After missing the goal, Firmino put his head in his hands, pulled his hair, shouted to the sky, and spoke plausibly. He was obviously dissatisfied with his shooting performance.

After feeling regretful, Firmino naturally did not forget who sent him the wonderful pass. He gave Li Qing a high thumbs up.

Li Qing also gave a thumbs up, entered the penalty area, and patted Firmino on the shoulder to show encouragement.

Klopp, who was standing in the command area of ​​the home team coach, was quite depressed. He raised his arms and shouted before blurting out one word: "FUCK!"

At the same time, the visiting team's head coach Guardiola came to the sidelines in excitement and made a tactical change gesture towards Otamendi who was on top.

In fact, Guardiola does not blame Otamendi, because the premise of Otamendi's position is due to his key deployment before the game. Now it seems that Li Qing has a keen insight. If he continues to take the initiative, Otamendi will The space behind Tammendi will surely be exploited again.

Just because Ederson was able to save Manchester City the first time doesn't mean he can save it the second time.

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei shouted: "The young player Li Qing's pass was very accurate. Firmino ran and stopped the ball impeccably, but the last shot was just a little bit off. If this The ball was shot by Li Qing, and there was a high probability that Liverpool would open the scoring.”

In the subsequent game time, Manchester City played very carefully as a guest, both offensively and defensively.

It is precisely for this reason that the 0:0 displayed on the scoreboard has not changed for a long time.

The fact that the goal did not occur does not mean that the game was not exciting. Both sides speeded up the game through high-intensity running. The failure to score can only be said to be a little bit unlucky.

Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, at the 19th minute, Liverpool's attack ended, and Manchester City switched from defense to attack, preparing to launch a quick counterattack.

Mane, Salah, Firmino and Li Qing accelerated to grab the ball at the same time. Fernandinho, Stones and Otamendi kept passing the ball. When the ball reached Delph's feet, they found that it was gone. Pass angle.

In the absence of good passing teammates, Delph was affected by the fanatical atmosphere of Anfield and his brain short-circuited for a while, choosing to dribble the ball by himself.

Firmino, who turned around to defend, had quick eyesight and stretched out his foot to intercept the ball. Liverpool used high pressure to switch from defense to offense.

Li Qing turned and accelerated, running with all his strength, stretching out his foot to move the football that Firmino had just picked up at his feet. Delph, who made the mistake, missed the tackle and the ball.

"waste!"

Guardiola said anxiously.

Li Qing was extremely explosive, and it only took less than two seconds to go from start to full speed, and the Manchester City players just reacted and switched from offense to defense.

Fernandinho ran from the side and followed suit, but Li Qing kicked a ball of air because he picked up the speed too fast.

Stones and Otamendi, who were fighting and retreating, did not dare to make any moves easily, while Mane and Salah's forward penetration from the wings put huge pressure on Manchester City's defense.

Li Qing, who was about thirty meters away from the goal, saw that the two central defenders were far away. While running at high speed, he pushed the football to the left with the outside of his left foot, took a big step forward with his right foot, and stood in front of the football. Lift your left foot and quickly kick the football rolling forward.

"Boom~"

Otamendi fell to the ground to block the shot again, half a beat slower. The football was like a cannon, flying quickly towards the lower left corner of the goal.

The football kicked out by Li Qing was very fast. There was a clear drop when it flew to the penalty spot. When the football fell to the ground, it bounced forward with obvious acceleration, just like the curved shot in the cartoon "Football Boy". .

Goalkeeper Ederson made a serious mistake in his prediction. He was caught off guard when the football hit the wet grass and accelerated significantly. He opened his hand and it was too late to make changes...

The football passed under Ederson's right palm before he completely fell to the ground and hit the snow-white net.

Originally, Li Qing decided to take a long shot just because his teammates didn't have a good space to catch the ball. He didn't expect the results to be so good...
