Volume 1 Chapter 53 The First Strike (Part II)
"Goal~, Lucas, he opened the scoring for Liverpool, Arbelloa assisted, Mark's pass tore through Reading's defence, a very imaginative diagonal pass was diverted~, and Arbeloa stopped beautifully~"
"Oh~lalala~", the league cup is very chicken now, there are not many fans who come to the away stadium, they are all hardcore, although the voice is not loud, or insist on singing that you will never walk alone, lighting up a stubborn red in the long blue ocean.
Reading immediately after the restart, Reading attacked, Koper's on-the-spot command came into play, the two forwards and the left and right midfielders kept pulling the edges, and Reading won throw-ins on Mackin in succession.
Macqin's defense in the middle mainly relies on the card position, and when the wingback assists the wingback, he suffers a little, and Uris doesn't play any coordination skills at all, just rely on his body to crush!
This veteran, who is about to retire, seems to have regained his former youth and made Mack Qin a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Ag's assistance defense is in place.
Although he can't bear it a little, he still works hard to defend, sometimes the defense is more important about attitude and arrival rate, the body is only secondary, and he is just not used to confrontation, some of the hard skills are not smart enough, and it is not that the body is really too far behind.
This time Reading sent a throw-in, and Mark Qin immediately posted it, and through the first two times, he figured out Uris's routine, since you play with your body, then don't give you a chance to rush up and pester you.
Ulis got the ball on the touchline near the corner with his back to him, tried to turn left and right but failed, felt Mark's hand very tight, and returned the ball to the midfielder who came up.
Reading poured the ball back, and Mackin relaxed his closeness to Uris, but he didn't expect the ball to come back, and Ulis took the opportunity to complete the turn, Nima, he didn't feel good.
Again! Uris took a slight trip, leaned on his shoulder and wanted to break through to the penalty area, it was too bullying!
Mark is diligent enough, this is also a dangerous position, it must not be let go, Aurelio has been pulled out, and he went directly into the penalty area to face Agg.
So he grabbed Ulris's jersey and shoveled it down, Ulis was very experienced, blocked it with his leg, and then fell to the ground with his leg exaggeratedly.
"Hey, bastard boy, do you want to fight?" , the nearest Reading midfielder Conway ran over and yelled at him.
Mark stood up and shrugged his shoulders, and Ag and Aurelio immediately ran over and separated Conway, "Hey, don't look for trouble"
The referee came over at this time, gave a direct free kick gesture, and then beckoned Mark Qin to him, "No. 18, pay attention to your movements, don't be too big"
"Referee, I rushed to the ball, and he stretched out his leg to block my foot," Mark said innocently
"You've committed a foul, don't quibble," he said, pulling out a yellow card from behind his ass.
“what?” , Ma Qin just wanted to get angry and stopped in time, shook his head and walked away.
"Hey, Asian kid, give me some restraint," Ulis stood up and threatened Mack Qin with his back on the referee's back.
Mark Qin looked at him with a sneer, old oil, let's see.
The free kick was on the edge of the penalty area, very threatening, Itanji nervously commanded the defense, Makqin and Aurelio were on the wall, Uris took the penalty, and the ball was urgent and flat.
Mark Qin turned his head to see that the ball was in the goal, shit!
He looked up at the replay on the big screen, the ball went around the front point at great speed, and Bobby Conway grabbed the ball in front of Itanji and put the ball into the corner, "Goal~, Boebi~Conway~"
The blue sea of the Midejeski Stadium seemed to blow a storm and exploded completely with Reading's equaliser.
Mackin shook his head helplessly and walked back, he was somewhat responsible for this goal, and he gave the opponent a free kick on the edge of the penalty area that was too well positioned.
Ag came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Mark, relax, I don't blame you, it's normal in the game"
"Thanks, Agg, I know, just call back"
"That's right," Ag said with a smile
Mackin was a little irritated, this is a rare emotion he has now, you can win me, but you can't tease me, I'll let you play with a native, where do you put your face?
Besides, Uris's little trick really taught him what the actual arena is like, there are no gentlemen, morality, fairness, only wits and courage under the rules!
He still thought about the game too beautifully, thinking that he would be able to ride smoothly with his innate advantages and excellent insight, and in this pond, the tadpoles have his way of survival.
It's not scary to make mistakes, don't take it away – that's the motto of the court.
Mack Qin sped up his pace, no longer like he used to be slow and laid-back, he frequently interspersed on the left and middle of the front waistline, receiving the ball, passing, receiving the ball.
He held his breath in his heart, he was going to beat Reading down hard, so that his heart could be understood, life is like this, at some point you feel that there is something you must do, then, don't hesitate!
"Mark, back heel, beautiful, knocked Torres, Torres couldn't turn around, returned the ball to Mark, Mark shot from a distance, fake, he took a step laterally, pushed to Lucas, who was inserted, Lucas straight into ~, Crouch! It's a bit big, confiscated by Federić", Volcker was a little busy these few minutes
"Liverpool have picked up the tempo, and the central combination just now is very threatening"
Federić kicked the ball away, Hyypia met the ball and gave the ball to Mascherano, who pushed it to Aurelio, who didn't stop the ball and went straight to Macklin.
Led by him, the whole Liverpool team picked up the tempo a little, Benitez frowned a little, he arranged the rhythm before the game.
Mackin couldn't think about it that much for the time being, the only thing he wanted to do now was send the ball into Reading's damn goal.
Feeling that Uris was going to defend again, he didn't pass the ball this time, and the enemy could only be deterred by knocking him down, and he couldn't dodge the kick forever.
At the moment of receiving the ball, he felt the position of Uris, did not stop the ball, and directly knocked his backheel, and the ball passed between Ulris's legs, which he had not had time to close, and Mark Qin turned around from the outside line to overtake.
It happened too suddenly, and the speed of Uris, a veteran, was no longer enough to reach Mack.
"Mark! Pretty get rid of it, he dribbles the ball straight into the penalty area, right central defender Shawley comes out, Mark ~ pedals the bike, oh ~, beautiful! Perfect performance", Volker watched his performance excitedly, and it had been a long time since Liverpool had seen such a smooth pass.
Don't pedal too much, Denilson and Mancini Jr. don't end well, control within four or five times, preferably two or three, then with suddenness and rhythm, it's a weapon to get rid of.
Makqin only used it three times, and his physical flexibility is not as good as that of South American players, but he has a basketball foundation, and when he practices cycling, he deliberately practices the shaking of his shoulders.
Xiao Li felt like this, feeling that he was like a wind swing, swaying from side to side, and the second time he couldn't help but move his center of gravity to the bottom line with the feint of Mackin's shoulder.
Of course it was fake, and with a flick of the outside of his right foot, he flashed past Shawley's left hand.
At this point he was ready to hit the back of the net, Federi came to block the near corner, Dubory also gave up Torres to fill in, and he was waiting for this time.
This ball is to be foolproof!
He gently pushed the ball to his left-hand side, right in the corner of the small box, between the goalkeeper and Dubory, Torres slapped his horse and fired a low left-footed shot through two goals in a row, and flew under Federić's crotch into the goal!
Two to one!
"Torres~, the ball is in~, Liverpool is leading again, but I have to credit Mark for this goal, is he really only sixteen? He's just incredible! Walker's emotional tone ignited the shouts of Liverpool's countless bars.
“cheers!”
"Torres, well done"
"Mark is awesome, he reminds me of McManaman, just as chic"
After Torres scored, he turned around and hugged Mackqin, "Good pass, Mark"
"Haha, you shoot more beautifully!" , The hearty passing just now made his depression completely dissipate, and confidence was really kicked out.
Teammates in the midfield and backfield all ran over to hug and celebrate in front of Liverpool's fan zone, such a beautiful goal can stimulate the state of the whole team, and Reading's just ten minutes of equalising, Liverpool came back to overtake, which was also a blow to their morale.
"I'll just ask who is still not convinced?" , in the online chat room, Macqin's die-hard loyalists completely raised their eyebrows
"This is a good match, and Ronaldo has a fight"
"Please take my knees!"
It's a pity that this game is not broadcast live in China, otherwise it would definitely be a mess.
Uris was a little depressed, and accidentally let this kid break through himself, and in such a humiliating way.
Shawley walked up to him and said, "Uri, be careful, this kid is not simple"
"I'm sorry, I was careless"
With seven or eight minutes left in the first half, the two sides closed a little, Reading was afraid of conceding again, Liverpool was also worried about Reading's equaliser, and both sides no longer invested too many troops, mainly reflected in the lack of forward insertion between the full-backs and the midfielders.
Koper and Benitez are firmly standing in the command area, considering the tactical arrangement in the second half, it is a pity to concede another goal Koper, but the opponent relies on individual ability, that is really no way.
Without his arrangement, Reading also stepped up their top defense against him, he was too active up front, and this time he was on the wing again.
Ulis didn't dare to be careless, he found a good position to tightly seal his breakthrough route, retreated while fighting, waiting for an opportunity to break the ball, Conway also ran over to help defend, it seems that Mackin only has to return to Aurelio This back road, no other way passes.
He didn't, picked the ball through the crack and gave it to Torres, who came to pick it up, and started immediately!
"It's Mark again, pretty, I'm going to be his fan, two-by-one, Torres, oh~, Uris fouled"
What Makqin bullied was Uris's turning speed, if you dare to play with me, I will seize your weakness and beat you to death!
Ulis knew that he must not be allowed to fight, and when he turned around, he raised his arm, and Mackin did not force it, and as soon as he touched his arm, he fell to the ground in pain while holding his neck, looking like he was being slammed to the ground.
"Toot ~"
"You, block the foul! No more extras! The referee did not hesitate to pull out the yellow card.
"Referee, he's pretending, I just habitually waved my arms, and I didn't touch him at all!" , Ulis said angrily.
Conway pulled Uris away, "Calm down"
"You have to be careful, I'll be staring at you, you've been moving too much today!" , the referee showed no mercy.
Uris and Conway were still chattering, Mackin seemed to be holding his neck in pain, seeing that the referee did not have any clear indication to wait for his whistle, he immediately quickly set the ball and kicked it to Torres!
Dubory, Shorey immediately stretched out his hand to signal, but the referee didn't say anything, shit, they panicked and prepared to organize the defense.
Torres didn't stop the ball either, kicking the ball to Aurelio who was inserted on the wing, Aurelio rushed in, and Reading's back line was in chaos!
There was no one to stop at all, Aurelio swept a low cross into the small penalty area, Crouch was ready to grab the point, and there was only one defender left by Halls, but the ball was a little back, Crouch leaned on Hall and was not very good at exerting force, and gently made the ball to Torres, who was inserted!
Torres met the ball with a burst shot, and at such a close distance, the goalkeeper couldn't do anything!
"Fernando Torres, a brace! He was in amazing form today, the Reading players were around the referee and they disagreed with the decision, so let's watch the replays.
"The referee kept gesturing for the Reading players to disperse and he insisted on his decision"
Rafa Benitez shook his fists and was shocked by the fact that he could have replaced Torres for the Champions League in advance, and he looked at the players gathered around to celebrate, and was happy with the performance of Lucas and Mackqin today, at least in the first half.
Jack Hobbs looked at Mack Qin off the court, extremely envious, he is the captain of the reserve team, he can only get a substitute in this kind of game, and he can play in garbage time, people are more than people, and he can be angry.
