Chapter 366 Home Alone, the youngest captain

After 37 rounds of the 2017-2018 Premier League, Liverpool has 33 wins, 4 draws and 103 points, becoming the highest score in the history of the English top league, and also the team with the highest points in the European League.

Since Liverpool still has one last round of home games against Brighton, it means that the league points of 103 points can be raised by three more points.

Therefore, Liverpool, a port city in northwest England, has once again become the focus of attention of fans all over the world. Once Liverpool scores points in the home game against Brighton, in addition to raising the league points, it can also surpass Bayern and become the second longest league cross-season unbeaten team in the top five European leagues.

At the European League level, Liverpool not only surpassed Bayern, but also surpassed Porto's 53-round unbeaten record in Europe from October 1994 to March 1996, the fifth longest league in Europe.

Going up, there are 56 unbeaten rounds created by Benfica from 1976 to 1978, 58 unbeaten rounds created by AC Milan from May 1991 to March 1993, and 62 unbeaten rounds created by Celtic from November 1915 to April 1917.

Finally, there is the 104 unbeaten rounds created by the Romanian League overlord Steaua Bucharest in the three years from August 1986 to September 1989.

Perhaps it is difficult to surpass the league unbeaten record created by Steaua Bucharest, but... breaking the league unbeaten record created by Benfica, AC Milan and Celtic is still very hopeful.

At 3 pm on May 13, 2018, the 38th round of the 2017-2018 Premier League season kicked off in full swing. The four seats for the Champions League next season and the two Europa League seats have been settled, and there is nothing to watch in the European war zone.

There will be no surprises in the relegation zone. Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion will be relegated in advance. Swansea, ranked third from the bottom, is three points behind Southampton, ranked fourth from the bottom, and nine goals behind. There is nothing to watch, unless Southampton loses to Manchester City by a large score at home in the last round and Swansea beats Stoke City by a large score at home.

Such a possibility is very small.

Manchester City has nothing in the four major championships this season, and has created a record of 95 points as the highest league runner-up in 37 league rounds. Obviously, they will not go all out to attack for a higher league runner-up points record.

The last round of the league kicked off on time, and the most watched league was Liverpool's home game against Brighton.

Once Liverpool wins at home, the highest points in the league will be increased to 106 points, reaching a new height that will be difficult to surpass in the future.

Of course, Klopp will not send the main force for the so-called record. He uses substitutes and youth team players. Among them, Curtis Jones from the U18 youth team is the youngest player. He and the post-00 striker Brewster started at the same time, becoming the team with the youngest players in the last round of the league.

In addition, Rafa Camacho, born in 2000, and Li Qing, born in 2001, are on the bench, but Li Qing can no longer be viewed with ordinary eyes, because...more Liverpool fans are willing to call him the new king of the team.

Curtis Jones, who has a very good relationship with Li Qing, plays very confidently in the midfield. He doesn't look like a 17-year-old player at all, which is just right for Liverpool fans to give him the nickname "Midfield Conspirator".

On the contrary, Brewster, who is older, is more nervous. His ball handling and shooting are not up to standard.

Li Qing, who is sitting on the bench, shook his head. There is a reason why Brewster didn't play well before he crossed over.

His good friend Curtis Jones plays very well. In the future...maybe he can get a certain chance to play as a substitute in Liverpool's first team, but...this opportunity may not be too much.

After all, not every genius is as perverted as him.

At the end of the first half, the scoreboard still showed the score of 0:0. In the second half, Liverpool made the first personnel adjustment, and Li Qing replaced Lallana.

With Li Qing entering the field, Liverpool's average age per game has further narrowed, especially the forward line, which is now close to the average of 18 years old. Li Qing is 17 years and 3 months old, Brewster is 18 years and 1 month old, Woodburn is 18 years and 7 months old, and Curtis Jones is 17 years and 3 months old.

The live director just gave a close-up of four players from Kirkby Youth Academy. Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun smiled and said: "Is Klopp preparing to create a youth storm for the Red Army next season?"

Obviously, this is a joke. Liverpool is a wealthy team. It is very difficult for youth players to suddenly rise to the top like Owen, Gerrard, and Li Qing in the past.

Young players have momentum, but the problem is that their shortcomings are also prominent. Instability is a common problem for young players, and wealthy teams are often not too patient.

As the saying goes, drink today and enjoy today. The three young players who rarely had the opportunity to play played better and better under the deliberate leadership of Li Qing, and their cooperation gradually made people feel dazzled.

The fanatical atmosphere hovering over Anfield gradually heated up, like boiling water.

In the 53rd minute, Li Qing sent a precise long pass on the right side of the attack, and Woodburn on the left side made a high-speed insertion. Facing the incoming ball, he chose to pass the ball directly to the middle of the penalty area without stopping. Brewster, who had excellent speed and agility in front of the goal, shot and scored, helping Liverpool to open the record, and Brewster, who scored the goal, also scored his first goal in the first team.

"aooaoaooaoooooo——"

The whole stadium was shouting for the little monster from Kirkby Academy to score a goal. Li Qing even moved his arms up and down towards the KOP stands to signal for a louder sound. Therefore, the huge shouts that rang out at Anfield were like a tsunami. violent.

Two minutes later, Curtis Jones, another little boy from the Kirkby Youth Academy, assisted Li Qing and scored a wonderful half-volley shot. The two teammates who had worked well together in the U15-U16 stage played in the Premier League for the first time. Contribute goals.

Li Qing no longer had much emotional fluctuations in the goal, but Curtis Jones, who sent the first assist in his career, was ecstatic, even more excited than scoring the goal himself.

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun said with a smile: "The last round of the Premier League in the 2017-2018 season is destined to be a day worth remembering. The Red Army, Home Alone, led the visiting Brighton 2:0 at home."

In the 63rd minute of the game, captain Henderson was replaced by Ince. Since the second captain Milner was not present, and the third captain Coutinho, who moved to Barcelona last summer, had not yet been selected in time, So Henderson walked back and raised the captain's armband towards coach Klopp, meaning who he wanted to give it to.

Klopp looked around the stadium, his eyes finally focused on Li Qing, and he pointed over.

Henderson pointed at Li Qing uncertainly, and when coach Klopp nodded firmly, he handed the captain's armband to Li Qing: "Li, put it on."

Seeing this, Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun's voice rose an octave: "Henderson handed the captain's armband to Li Qing. At 17 years and 88 days old, Li Qing became the youngest captain in the history of the Red Army!"
