Chapter 985: Li Mu is injured
On April 21, in the 35th round of the English Premier League, Chelsea played Hussfeld at home. In the 24th minute of the game, the score was 1:0, the scorer was Morata, and the assister was Li Mu.
In the 32nd minute, Li Mu received a pass from Hazard's side, connected two players of the opponent and then rushed to Hasfeld's penalty area, forming a single knife, seeing that Li Mu was about to score the 44th league goal of the season, but Hasfeld's defender Smith made a sliding tackle and shoveled Li Mu to the ground on the edge of the penalty area, and the referee decisively blew a foul, and ran to Smith and took out a red card.
Smith's foul caused displeasure among the Chelsea players, with Hazard and his players surrounding him, and Morata even pushing him, with Hasfeld's players rushing up to persuade him. The on-site commentator said: "Smith's action is not too much to get a red card, this is an absolute opportunity for Li Mu." ”
Li Mu, who was tackled, couldn't stand up again, and finally with the support of Morata, he barely stood up, but quickly lay down, and after the treatment of the team doctor, it was determined that Li Mu could not continue to play, and in desperation, Conte had to replace him.
Thankfully, Chelsea were able to beat Hussfeld 3-0 thanks to goals from Alvaro Morata, Eden Hazard and Willian, and a win in their next game will see them win the league title ahead of schedule. Li Mu's injury has become the most worrying thing for Chelsea, Conte said at the press conference: "I don't know the extent of Li Mu's injury now, it will only be known after in-depth treatment, I certainly hope he is okay, I believe that every player and every fan thinks so. ”
Hazard said: "Li Mu is a very important member of our team, he is indispensable and I hope he is okay. ”
Li Mu's injury made headlines in major news, and friends such as Zhang Shujie and Chen Zihua called to greet him, and his answer was "no big deal". That's all it says, but what will happen in practice? I'm afraid we'll have to wait and see.
The next day, the 33rd round of Serie A started, AC Milan away to Torino, today Chen Zihua is rested, Zhang Shujie also only played half of the game, but he still opened the scoring for the team in the 21st minute, scoring his 47th league goal of the season, just one goal away from his own 48 goals in a single league season, in addition to eight assists.
Tsui then doubled the lead for Milan with his 11th league goal, Leonardo Bonucci and Antonio Conte also scored a goal each, and Torino striker Berotti scored twice in the game, but he alone was no match for the entire Milan side, and the Rossoneri beat Torino 4-2.
At the same time, the injury report of Li Mu, who is far away in the Premier League, also came out, he fractured his left ankle and needs to rest for about a month and a half to two months after diagnosis, which means that Li Mu will miss all the remaining games of the season!
Chelsea fans panicked, and if leading the league table with eight points doesn't make people feel how difficult it is for Chelsea to win the league title, then the Champions League semi-final battle has made fans a little nervous. The Champions League semi-finals will not be revealed until tomorrow, but the three opponents, no matter who they are, are not soft persimmons. Chelsea without Li Mu will undoubtedly be greatly discounted on the attacking line, let's take a look at his stats first: 33 league games and 43 goals, although slightly less than Zhang Shujie (47 goals in 33 games), but Li Mu contributed 12 assists, Zhang Shujie only 8 times, adding the number of goals directly created, both of them created 55 goals for the team in 33 league games!
Looking at Li Mu's Champions League, ten games, 14 goals, two assists, ranking first in the Champions League scorer list, Li Mu played a total of four games in the FA Cup and League Cup, scored four goals and assisted twice. So far, Li Mu has scored 61 goals and provided 16 assists in 47 games! Chelsea have scored 122 goals in all competitions so far, and Li Mu alone accounts for half of them.
With Li Mu missing the rest of the games, the Daily Mail said: "This season's European Golden Boot and Europe's best striker will only be one person, and he will not have any opponents." Undoubtedly, the "he" mentioned by the "Daily Mail" is Zhang Shujie.
However, the main concern of Chinese fans may not be what Chelsea will do in the Champions League next, but the World Cup will start in mid-June, and Li Mu's injury will last for up to two months, which means that he may miss this year's World Cup in Russia.
At this critical moment, An Rong spoke: "No matter what Li Mu's injury ends up with, I will definitely take him to the World Cup, even if he can't play a game." From these words, it is not difficult to see how high Li Mu's status is in An Rong's heart.
And Li Mu was also deeply moved, and responded to An Rong's words: "I will definitely recover in the shortest possible time and catch up with the first game of the Chinese team in the World Cup!"
But these words do not seem to reassure the fans. Although there is still Zhang Shujie on the front line of the Chinese team, everyone knows that he and Li Mu are indispensable, just like the tiger's claws and teeth, without any of them, the power will be greatly reduced. Therefore, many fans prayed for Li Mu on forums and post bars, hoping that he could recover from his injury as soon as possible.
**********************
Milan, Italy. Zhang Shujie learned from the news that Li Mu's injury was so serious, and called him again, but several calls were made during the call, and the last time he called, it was Ye Xiaotong who answered the phone.
"Xiaotong?" Zhang Shujie asked, "What about papaya, why don't you answer the phone?"
"It may not be convenient for these two days, so the phone will be put here for the time being. ”
"Oh, is his injury so bad?"
Ye Xiaotong sighed and said, "I also hope it won't be that serious, but the doctor has already said it, and we can't help it." ”
Zhang Shujie said: "If it's usual, it's okay to have an injury for a month or two, the key is that the World Cup is coming." ”
"He also said about it, he said he would try to catch the World Cup. ”
"I hope so. By the way, say hello to papaya on my behalf. ”
"Yes. ”
"Well, then you take good care of him, I'll hang up the phone first. ”
"Wait. Well...... Zhang Shujie, thank you all for calling and caring about him. ”
Zhang Shujie smiled: "Yes, they are all friends." In public and private, we should care about it, our Chinese team can't do without papaya. ”
Ye Xiaotong also smiled and said, "Today, Ma Junqiang and Liang Xiran came to London to visit him. ”
"They are close to papaya, I really can't come here, the team has a game. ”
"Understood. Let's do it first, you have a good game, bye-bye. ”
"Bye-bye. After speaking, the two hung up the phone one after another.
