Chapter 552 Incredible Game

England, who had lost the ball, took advantage of the last kick-off opportunity to launch an attack, but the Spanish players, who scored two goals in a row, were very strong mentally and did not give the English players any chance at all. Even a player as strong as Li Qing could not There is no way to break the situation with super personal ability.

As Barkley forced a long shot from the front of the penalty area and went over the crossbar, referee Cakir blew the whistle to end the first half.

"aooaoaooaooaoaoooooo——"

The Spanish fans at the Benito Villamarín Stadium burst into loud chants like a mountain and a tsunami, venting their anger for supporting their team's half-time draw with newly crowned World Cup champions England.

The England players who appeared on the broadcast screen had frowning expressions, obviously worried about the second half of the game. In sharp contrast, the Spanish players had a look of indifference on their faces, and they scored two goals in a row. The super confidence that the ball brings is immense.

Coupled with playing at home again, Spanish players believe they can score more goals in the second half.

Li Qing?

Are you still undefeated from the beginning of your career?

That can only be said to be undefeated in the past!

This game is the moment to break Li Qing's undefeated streak!

Professional players are all competitive people, and no one will give in to anyone easily. Even though Li Qing is now recognized as the world football king, there are still many players who think that Li Qing is not enough to become the king.

Young, not enough career, too much chance...

These are the tricks that arrogant professional players think of to avoid tricky angles. It is precisely with this idea that every opponent player who faces Li Qing is full of hope for the future game.

Isn’t that what competitive sports are like?

Higher, faster and stronger!

The games Li Qing won can only represent the past. As long as there is still time in the future, the result will not be Li Qing's team winning.

As assistant coach Holland closed the door to the substitute locker room, the noise coming from the Benito Vilamalin Stadium suddenly stopped. Except for Li Qing, the English players stood with their heads held high, and the other players looked preoccupied. Sitting on a stool.

England head coach Southgate glanced at all the players present. When his eyes came into contact with Li Qing, he nodded lightly. The meaning was obvious. He was satisfied with Li Qing's performance in the first half. As for the other players, naturally they were not satisfied at all. Eye contact, after all, everyone has his head lowered, and some players can't even see it.

Southgate said solemnly: "Guys, the performance in the first half was very good. Of course, I am only talking about the first half hour. In the next fifteen minutes, I believe many players know how bad their performance was. This... It does not meet the level expected of a new World Cup champion. There are still forty-five minutes left in the second half. I hope everyone here can wake up and prove that the World Cup championship is not the pinnacle, but a beginning..."

A few minutes passed quickly during Southgate's training. The emotional changes of some players in the visiting team's locker room were not very obvious. Only Harry Kane, Rashford, Joe Gomez, Winks, Pickford and a few other players were eager to play in the second half.

There were not many players with indifferent attitudes, but there were also quite a few. Southgate saw this and couldn't help but shake his head. Due to the limited half-time break, he did not spend too much time adjusting the players' mentality, and then the conversation started. For a moment, focus on the tactical deployment of the game in the second half.

The tactics of the first half were no longer suitable for the second half. In order to increase the team's chances of winning the game at the Benito Villamarin Stadium, the tactics must be adjusted accordingly.

The fifteen-minute intermission passed quickly. Players from both sides left their respective locker rooms and returned to the Benito Villamarin Stadium through the player tunnel to prepare for the second half of the game.

After a fifteen-minute break, the emotions of the Spanish players, who had scored two goals in a row, and the English players, who had conceded two goals in a row, had greatly changed, as if they had never experienced the paradise and territory of the forty-five minutes in the first half.

In fact, the reason is very simple. 2:2 is the same as 0:0. The game returns to the same starting line. If you win the game, you hope to become equal to both teams. In other words, the game returns to a balanced state. It is difficult to break the balance. The coefficient is much larger than in the non-equilibrium state.

People only explode when they are in desperate situations. It is difficult to have a sense of adventure when the situation turns around, especially since England also has a superstar Li Qing who can change the situation of the game.

Spain, who equalized the score, certainly hoped to win the game, but they knew that winning the game required a process. The two consecutive goals conceded in the first half were a bloody lesson.

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens.

England players are more confident in winning the game than Spanish players. As new World Cup champions, they have their own pride. However, the confidence of these England players is divided into two types. One is to win the game through their own efforts.

The other is to muddle along and win the game. In layman's terms, it means trying to win the game while dawdling.

Neither Southgate nor Enrique made adjustments to the players on the field at the beginning of the second half, apparently trusting the performance of the players at the beginning of the second half.

"Beep~"

With the whistle of the referee Cakir on duty, the second half of the third round of the UEFA Nations League group match between Spain and England at the Benito Villamarín Stadium at home began.

The Spanish players, who scored two goals in a row at the end of the first half, were high-spirited and showed stronger combat effectiveness in the fanatical atmosphere at home. They achieved the ultimate in Enrique's current lineup on both offense and defense.

Defensive players can complete the offensive trident composed of Li Qing, Harry Kane, and Rashford when England attacks. Offensive players can give Pickford a knock-on effect in guarding the goal with limited offensive opportunities.

In the 49th minute, Asensio took the lead to sound the alarm for Pickford's goalkeeping. He made a simple one-two with his teammates on the right side of the attack and entered the right side of the penalty area. The audience's sound was deafening. Huge chants.

However, as Asensio's left-footed shot missed the outside edge of the far goal and crossed the baseline, the huge cheers were replaced by sounds of regret.

We have achieved our best in the past, and the only thing missing is the last step.

"As David Villa and Torres age, Diego Costa and Morata are a little bit less interesting, otherwise Spain can take the lead at the beginning of the second half!"

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei said solemnly.

At the same time, Enrique screamed in frustration, while Southgate rushed to the sidelines and roared almost crazy, fully venting his strong dissatisfaction with the players on the field.

Some of the arrogant players seemed to realize something and wanted to regain their form in the next game. However, this is often the case. It is not easy to relax when you are nervous, but it is not easy to be nervous when you are relaxed.

In the 53rd minute, Spain finally took the lead. Thiago suddenly shot a cold arrow from outside the penalty area. Pickford's sight was blocked. By the time he saw the football, it was too late to make a save...

"Oh-My-God!"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray exclaimed: "Spain scored three goals in a row! Go ahead! This is an incredible game!"
