Chapter 349: Mess in the Locker Room?
The Premier League's overall style is known for its attacking style, fast-paced and fierce scrambles, with tough physical confrontations and ferocious tackles commonplace in their games.
Referees in Europe are well aware of this, so when they blow a game involving a Premier League team, they pay extra attention to the scale of physical confrontation or tackles.
The referee saw the tackle of Son Heung-min to Li Liang just now: the South Korean tackled the ball first with his feet close to the ground from the front of the 17th side, so he did not hesitate to signal the game to continue.
Ali distributed the ball to Lamela and the Argentine kicked back Raj with a left-footed cross, and Subabasic took the ball off in time to launch a counter-attack.
Li Liang gritted his teeth and got up, immediately stepped forward and waved his hand to Fabinho who took the ball to signal for the ball, Fabinho immediately made a long pass, Li Liang rushed towards the landing point and was about to stop the ball with his chest, but Dale also rushed over at high speed, and the two jumped at the same time.
In the battle for the top, Dale was shocked to find that this No. 17, who was half a head shorter than himself, was very tough, and he actually squeezed in front of him in the air!
Dale's raised arm hit Li Liang's face "just right", and Li Liang's eyes went black, and he fell straight from the air on the turf like a felled tree!
Dale lifted the ball and heard the referee's whistle as soon as he landed.
Both players rushed over, Bakayoko pushed his chest up to Dier, Kane rushed between them, and the two continued to exchange greetings in the F word mantra fiercely across the other.
The referee blew the whistle in succession, separating the two sides of the dispute. Raj stood beside Li Liang, who was unconscious, and waved desperately to the bench, and the referee immediately waved for the team doctor to hurry in.
……
Xue Yang looked solemn in the studio, and he said: "This is Li Liang's biggest problem at present, not only because of his lack of physical fitness, but also because of his obvious lack of confrontation ability. Against a Premier League side like Tottenham, who emphasise physical confrontation, he will have a difficult time playing. ”
Netizens are very angry, and they all think that Sun Xingmin's tackle and Dale's elbow just now are obviously deliberate fouls, purely aimed at people!
Da Kui also shouted: "This must be a black whistle!" Took the red envelope from Tottenham, right? How dare he just give a yellow card so suddenly? It should be punished directly! ”
……
Li Liang opened his eyes, but found that he was alone, he got up and looked around, it was the empty Camp Nou stadium.
He was very puzzled, knowing that he was in the virtual training scene again, but didn't he change the default scene to the Louis II Stadium a long time ago, why did he return to the Camp Nou?
Li Liang suddenly shouted: "Embarrassment, let me go back, I still have to compete!" ”
The big screen lit up suddenly, and there was a scene where he shot after a continuous breakthrough on Wembley Stadium just now, Li Liang looked at it and frowned - he was extremely remorseful, why didn't he pass the ball just now? What a great opportunity to miss out on such a fool!
Suddenly, there was another flash of light, and he couldn't open his eyes.
He felt something run over his face, and gradually heard the voice of the team doctor Parker amid the noisy shouts of the fans: "Go on, yes, get another bottle of water......"
Li Liangmeng felt the bitter coldness on his face, he opened his eyes and struggled to sit up, only to find that Parker and his assistant were helping him clean his wounds - in the scramble just now, Dale's elbow in the air hit his eyebrow bone, and he touched it with his hand, and his hands were covered with blood.
Li Liang saw the referee raise the yellow card high at Dale, who was innocent, and then turned his head to signal for him to come out for treatment.
There was a huge boo all over the room, and Vertonghen even chased after him and yelled at Li Liang: "Go back to the locker room and take a shower!" This is not for you softass! ”
The bleeding quickly stopped, and Parker, who was sure he was okay with his injuries and could continue the game, began to bandage him.
Yaldim came over, he stared into Li Liang's eyes and asked, "Li, can you compete?" ”
Parker replied, "Head, there's nothing wrong with his injuries. ”
Yaldim ignored Parker and continued to ask Li Liang: "Can you really compete?" ”
Li Liang looked at Yaldim in a daze, and said, "I'm sorry, sir, it's my fault!" ”
He understood what Yaldim was really trying to ask. Before taking the field, Caldeira gave himself the task of controlling the ball and connecting the midfield, not to let himself be a lone hero.
Yaldim nodded solemnly: "Go ahead, do what you should do!" ”
In the 39th minute of the game, Li Liang, who had completed treatment, returned to the field. Pochettino motioned for Ali to move closer to Li Liang, after all, Dier had already carried a yellow card and had to be just in case.
As the game progresses, what netizens are worried about is becoming a reality, although the Tottenham team did not arrange a special person to mark Li Liang, but whenever Li Liang took the ball, he would always be attacked by the opponent's ferocious pinch.
In another scramble, Li Liang, who had the ball in front, was once again brought to the ground by Vertonghen, and the referee only verbally warned Tottenham's No.5 despite the protests of the Monaco players.
Barros was too agitated and spoke disrespectfully to the referee and was sent to the stands.
Soon, Bakayoko spotted his chance and deliberately brought down Vertonghen in a scramble, a clear retaliation that sparked chaos on the pitch and the two sides tangled up again.
Several referees managed to separate the two sides, and the referee showed Bakayoko a yellow card, and called the captains of both sides, Raj and Lloris, together and gave each one a warning.
Two minutes of stoppage time came to an end in the first half, with Tottenham leading 1-0 at home.
As Monaco exited, there was a flurry of laughter from both sides of the tunnel, with someone shouting, "How many goals are you going to concede?"
Some people even pointed at Falcao and laughed: "Mr. '300,000 weekly salary', how many are you going to score this season?" It's definitely more than one, right!? ”
The Tottenham players around them walked to the tunnel with their heads held high, proudly receiving the heroic cheers of the fans.
The old man in the stands said to Southgate and Ryan Giggs: "This is a battle! At least for now, it seems that Tottenham have the upper hand. ”
Giggs said thoughtfully: "Sir, Pochettino is using your old tactics against this number 17!"
Is he so dangerous? It's worth getting an England international to get a yellow card for him?! ”
The old gentleman shook his head: "He doesn't play like this, at least until now, I haven't seen what the purpose of replacing him is."
Tottenham put so much pressure on him, he was brave, but it wasn't enough to be brave to change the game. ”
On the other side, the professor was discussing the same topic with two students, and the professor had always hated this killing tactic, saying: "Tottenham are obviously intimidating him (Li Liang) and trying to make this young man retreat!" ”
Henry said: "Lee didn't play well, he didn't play all his characteristics. ”
Bergkamp replied seriously: "Thierry, I really don't see anything special about him...... Well, he seems to be pretty good......"
Tang Meng and Lu Yue were also discussing Li Liang in the studio, Tang Meng felt that Tottenham's style of play was inherently compatible with Li Liang's characteristics, making it difficult for him to play, and it was really debatable whether it was appropriate to replace him when the score was behind.
Lu Yue believes that opponents like Tottenham will be encountered sooner or later, and it is better to hurt late than early, even if this game is lost, it will not be useless, and it is time to pay tuition.
Like He Wei and Xue Yang in the studio in distant Beihua, they did not comment on Son Xingmin, who scored a goal, and did not compare the performance of the Koreans with Li Liang.
……
In the away team's dressing room, Yaldim silently watched the shirtless disciples discuss fiercely, his team has never experienced such a passive half since the new season.
Everyone gradually quieted down, and all eyes turned to Yaldim, he glanced around, and said, "Don't you think the opposite style of play looks familiar!?"
They're using what we do best against us! If you're smart enough, you know what's going to happen next.
Anyway, I'm pretty happy with your performance, at least it's much better than the last time I faced them - whatever, you won't lose 4 more, right?! ”
There was silence in the locker room, and Yaldim's words stung everyone deeply.
Captain Raj stood up and shouted: "Brothers, you can't sleepwalk like you did in the first half, or you will drown in the hole like a rat!" ”
The second captain, Falcao, slammed his boots on the ground and shouted, "I don't want to lose!" ”
Bakayoko got up and walked to the pensive Li Liang, his eyes widened and he said, "Li, you can't fight alone like that anymore, unless you want to have your legs cut off!" ”
Silva also complained: "Lee, that ball must be better than your random shot!" ”
Li Liang's face turned red, and he stood up suddenly, the tattoo on his chest "determination" and his chest rose violently together.
Everyone stared at him silently.
Li Liang finally spoke: "Please forgive me, I didn't play well just now."
I don't want to lose either, and I'm going to win this game! ”
