Chapter 667: Goal and Overtake

Now, at least 50,000 people in the entire Anfield stadium, including the fans, have the same question as Hodgson.

But I am afraid that no one can answer this question except Li Qing himself.

BBC commentator Lineker was rarely silent in this game.

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray looked puzzled and looked at his partner beside him, "Martin, what do you think of Li's performance today?"

Martin Taylor cursed in his heart, if he wanted to know, would it be your turn to ask me? But Martin Taylor still acted like an insider.

"This should be Klopp's new tactics. Andy, do you think Liverpool's style of play today is very Paisley? But now it seems that the new tactics make Liverpool's soldiers very uncomfortable, and Li is obviously not used to it either!"

Throwing the blame on Paisley, if Paisley is still alive, he will probably throw a thunder directly to knock Martin Taylor down.

At this moment, Liverpool's midfielder intercepted the ball, and Henderson immediately rushed into Crystal Palace's half with the ball, but Milivojevic blocked him, and the two captains of the two sides started the Nth duel in this game.

But Henderson obviously had no intention of fighting with Milivojevic. Although his body made a posture to continue rushing forward, the moment he met the opponent, the ball under his feet had been knocked out.

The ball fell in the direction of Li Qing, and Henderson didn't even look at whether the ball was taken by Li Qing. He turned around to let Milivojevic go and immediately accelerated forward.

This is the tacit understanding between Henderson and Li Qing. Li Qing was still very easy to unload the ball under the interference of the opponent's players, and at the same time, he kicked the ball quickly, and the ball fell to Henderson's feet again.

Henderson, who was rushing forward at high speed, didn't wait for the Crystal Palace defender to come forward, and met the ball with an overhead pass, and the ball returned to Li Qing's feet again.

This time, there was no defensive player around Li Qing. Just now, he and Henderson passed the ball together, and Henderson successfully attracted the attention of three opposing players, but finally missed Li Qing.

Li Qing stretched his foot forward, easily controlled the ball, and then rushed into the penalty area of ​​​​Crystal Palace with the ball. Speroni had already left the goal.

But it was too late. Li Qing pushed the ball lightly, and the football went into the goal from the armpit of Speroni who had just rushed over.

"Goooooooooooal——"

Andy Gray, who had doubts just now, had a signature long voice that resounded throughout the live broadcast room, and the entire Anfield Stadium was instantly ignited because of this goal.

"Wonderful, beautiful, the tacit cooperation between Henderson and Li, the continuous wall-like cooperation, and Li Qing's final calm shot finally penetrated the gate of Crystal Palace. It was wonderful, absolutely wonderful!" Martin Taylor immediately sent a song of praise.

Klopp punched hard on the sidelines, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell. The familiar Li Qing finally came back.

In the stands of the stadium, in the VIP box, Tong Shenbing and Ning Qing cheered and hugged each other. Li Qing's goal also made their worries disappear.

The wonderful cooperation between the two captains greatly boosted the morale of the Liverpool players on the field, and the fans cheered and jumped for joy. Although it was just a tie, no one would think that Liverpool would lose the next game.

Hodgson shook his head helplessly. His players had tried their best. The Liverpool in front of them was too different from the Liverpool he led, and their strength was much stronger.

The ball just now seemed to be a connection between Henderson and Li Qing, but in fact, Hodgson saw clearly that when Henderson and Li Qing started to cooperate, Mane, Firmino and Keita were already in place.

Undoubtedly, Henderson was the initiator of this goal, but in fact, the precise positioning of his teammates made this attack have many options, which was completely invisible in Liverpool before.

But Hodgson was still a little puzzled. Was Li Qing's previous performance just to confuse himself, rather than Klopp's new tactics?

After the restart, the Crystal Palace players who were tied seemed to have not recovered from the emotion of losing the ball. The midfield was once again intercepted by Henderson, and Liverpool immediately turned from defense to offense.

At this time, most of the Crystal Palace players who had just lost the ball had pressed across the half court. Except for the two central defenders and the goalkeeper, almost everyone was in Liverpool's half court. Therefore, this interception was an excellent counterattack opportunity for Liverpool.

Henderson immediately sent the ball to the side, and the ball was in front of Li Qing who had already started to move forward.

Henderson kicked a little too hard for this ball, and obviously used a lot of strength. The ball landed at least ten meters away from Li Qing, and Crystal Palace's central defender Sakho was closest to the ball's landing point, so he immediately chased the ball.

But just as Sakho was chasing the ball, there was a cry of surprise from the stands, and his teammates behind him also shouted loudly, as if to remind him of something, but because he ran too fast, the sound of the wind was all around his ears, and he couldn't hear clearly what they were shouting.

Just when he felt puzzled, a red figure passed by his side, and Sakho was suddenly startled. It was Li Qing!

How could he run so fast? Sakho had already exerted his 200% speed, but what he saw was that the distance between him and Li Qing was getting bigger and bigger. He could only watch Li Qing grab the ball.

Li Qing, who got the ball, was already single-handed. Speroni didn't expect Liverpool's counterattack to hit the front of the penalty area so quickly, and he abandoned the goal again.

Everyone thought that the scene that just happened would happen again, and Li Qing would once again penetrate Speroni's ten fingers and overtake the score.

But this time everyone was wrong again. Facing Speroni, Li Qing actually made a direct cross pass, and the ball rolled into the penalty area of ​​Crystal Palace. Mane had already rushed to the front of the penalty area.

Facing the ball that suddenly appeared in front of him, Mane's heart jumped heavily, but this time he did not waste the opportunity. He just poked forward towards the ball, and the ball went into the gate of Crystal Palace.

"Goooooooooooal——Mane!"

Andy Gray's voice resounded throughout the studio again, and Anfield Stadium was completely ignited.

"Super Mane, the Li-Ma connection finally succeeded, Klopp's new tactics worked!" Martin Taylor also cheered. This goal allowed him to round out what he had just explained to Andy.

Klopp was still frowning as he punched. Li Qing had just passed the ball. This was not like his style. The Li Qing from the first half was back. What was he thinking?

After the team was overtaken, Hodgson's expression became relieved, and he looked deeply at Klopp who had just celebrated the goal on the sidelines.
