Chapter 489 The youngest captain!

"Beep~"

Accompanied by the whistle of the referee Anthony Taylor, the second half of the 2018 English Community Shield officially began. Perhaps the coaches of both sides were very satisfied with their players' performance in the first half, and no one made any adjustments first.

Manchester City did not make any adjustments, but no fans were dissatisfied. Liverpool did not send Li Qing, which became the outbreak point for fans in the audience to vent.

"Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee——"

"Li Qing! Li Qing! Li Qing!"

"We need Li to play!"

...

The new Wembley Stadium is a professional stadium without a runway. Klopp, who was sitting in the coaching seat, heard it clearly and shook his head helplessly.

It is not known whether it was influenced by the fans' urging, Klopp looked meaningfully at Li Qing who was sitting on the bench, and said with a smile: "Li, do you want to play?"

"It all depends on the boss's arrangement."

Li Qing kicked the ball back to Klopp, and Klopp smiled and said: "Then you go to the warm-up area to warm up first, and come back in ten minutes."

The on-site director was very focused, and did not care about Liverpool's organization of attack at all, and directly switched the broadcast screen to the home team's bench.

He Wei, the commentator of Tianchao Channel 5, suddenly raised his voice by eight degrees: "Li Qing stood up and ran to the warm-up area. Is he going to come on as a substitute?"

"aoaooaoaooaooooooooo——"

At the same time, a huge cheer like a tsunami sounded over the new Wembley Stadium.

"What is a superstar? This is a superstar! A 17-year-old superstar!"

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun raised his voice by eight octaves, shouting with a surge of emotion: "The new Wembley Stadium is completely boiling because of Li Qing. It is really hard to imagine how crazy it will be when Li Qing comes on as a substitute."

Faced with the sudden burst of cheers from the audience, the players on the field were puzzled. After a moment of stunned silence, they re-entered the ongoing Community Shield match.

It was not until the dead ball appeared in the game that they realized where the cheers just now came from. It turned out that...Li Qing, the new World Cup champion, England's best player and top scorer, was ready to play.

Li Qing warmed up, and many Liverpool players on the field felt nervous, especially Fabinho and Shaqiri, who had just joined the team but did not perform well enough.

Salah also had a certain sense of crisis. Li Qing's best position is right winger, and he is likely to play in this position...

Guardiola immediately noticed Li Qing who went to the warm-up area. He frowned and was worried, but he was very decisive and made substitutions before Liverpool made adjustments.

Sane, who did not perform well in the first half and the beginning of the second half, was replaced by Gundogan. This adjustment is easy to understand, just to prepare for the next defense.

"Li Qing is back in the coaching seat and will be on the field soon!"

The voice of the commentator He Wei of Tianchao 5 became louder and louder, almost madly shouting: "It has been more than half a month since the World Cup ended. I believe that the fans in front of the TV are as eager as me to see the heroic figure of King Li on the green field! As King Li is getting closer and closer to his debut, I personally feel that the wait of more than half a month is not worth mentioning!"

Commentary guest Gong Lei smiled and said: "All the waiting is worth it. Liverpool is 1:2 behind Manchester City. I think... this score will change soon."

After a while, Li Qing and his best friend Curtis Jones stood next to the fourth official waiting to appear. The live director captured a very interesting picture. A Manchester City jersey sitting on the second-tier stands took off Aguero's No. 10 jersey, revealing the latest Liverpool No. 10 jersey worn inside.

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun laughed and said: "A 30-year Manchester City fan instantly became a 10-year KOP fan!"

It's interesting that this Manchester City fan is not the only one who appears in the entire new Wembley Stadium, but there are many, so many die-hard Manchester City fans sitting in front of the TV secretly curse these fans as fence-sitters.

But then again, no English fans are scolding Li Qing, because... in the eyes of the English, Li Qing is a hero.

Since he is a hero, how can he be abused?

As Aguero's long shot from outside the penalty area missed the fan post, the referee Anthony Taylor blew his whistle and signaled a substitution on the sidelines.

The broadcast screen quickly caught up, and the commentator He Wei of Tianchao Channel 5 said loudly: "Liverpool is going to make two adjustments at once. Former Kirkby youth training twins Li Qing and Curtis Jones came on the bench. Who will they replace? Oh? Shaqiri and Fabinho?"

As soon as the voice fell, the commentator Gong Lei nodded and said: "This substitution can be said to be an expected adjustment. Mane, Firmino and Salah performed well in the first half. Only Fabinho and Shaqiri, who joined Liverpool this summer, did not perform better. Liverpool fell behind Manchester City 1:2. It was expected that they were replaced."

Klopp is a very good head coach. Fabinho and Shaqiri did not play to their personal level. He did not say anything, but took the initiative to encourage them. The two had just joined the team for less than a month and had not participated in the training camp for a long time. It is common for them not to keep up with the team's tactical rhythm. After all, not every player is Li Qing.

"aoaoaooaooooooooooo——"

Li Qing and Curtis Jones came on as substitutes, and the audience in the new Wembley Stadium cheered loudly like a tsunami.

The on-site director gave Li Qing a close-up shot of his face as he entered the stadium. Firmino appeared on the broadcast screen. Just when the fans in front of the TV were confused, he took off the captain's armband on his left arm and said He put it on Li Qing's left arm himself.

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun's voice rose an octave: "Klopp held a press conference the day after Li Qing returned to the team and officially promoted Li Qing to the third captain. When neither Henderson nor Milner was on the court, Li Qing is the captain on the field! Firmino, who wears the captain’s armband as a substitute, will naturally hand over the captain’s armband to the captain!”

"From this moment on, Li Qing officially becomes the youngest captain of Liverpool, 17 years and 172 days old! surpassing the record of 20 years and 250 days set by Rezbek in 1900! This record is also the youngest captain record of all Premier League teams, even if it is retroactively The same is true in the League One era. Looking across Europe, no player has become the captain of the team earlier than Li Qing!”

"The youngest captain! The youngest captain of Liverpool!"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray shouted with excitement.

"The youngest captain in Europe at 17 years and 172 days old!"

Marcel Leif said emotionally.

Li Qing, who was wearing the captain's armband on his left arm, felt something different. In addition to the inherent tightness, he also felt a very strong sense of responsibility!

"Leeeeeeeeeeeee——"

At the same time, Liverpool fans roared like a tsunami in the auditorium, and the fanatical atmosphere of the game increased even more.

Curtis Jones, who played together, was very envious, but he was not blind. He was thinking about becoming a pillar of the team through his own efforts in the future. Players like Li Qing will reach a higher level of influence sooner or later. Team, when the time comes...he will definitely be able to take over the captain's armband left by Li Qing!

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei's voice rose an octave: "Liverpool captain Li Qing is here! Liverpool is 1:2 behind Manchester City. Will he lead Liverpool to equalize the score?"
