Chapter 356: At the center of the storm, the world will tremble for you
After Li Liang passed the ball, he felt bad, and the pass was big! Thankfully, Silva stubbornly caught up with the ball.
Aldreveld watched this scene in amazement, as a star central defender who has played in the Champions League final and reached the quarterfinals of the World Cup, of course he knows that at this time in the game, the vast majority of players have already reached the limit, and it will be difficult to breathe, let alone think calmly.
However, how did the No. 17 come up with all this when he first got rid of Wanyama in an incredible way, and then deliberately chased by Davies, waiting for himself to leave the box before splitting the ball into the gap on the side?
Aldreveld didn't believe that the key counter-attack by the number 17 was intentional when Monaco scored the first goal, but now he is sure that the seemingly weak number 17 has amazing ability - this is really a guy who can upset the balance of the game!
Davies was even more shocked than Aldreveld, he understood that the confrontation he tried his best to fight with No. 17 just now was actually just a bait for the opponent to "lure" the central defender to grab it, and it turned out that he was regarded as a "trick" for No. 17.
Goalkeeper Lloris roared angrily, and Davis realized that he was only concerned about defending Li Liang just now, and he didn't notice that Germain had broken into the side that he was supposed to defend! Rollis's scolding woke him up, and Davis quickly turned around and rushed towards Germain.
Li Liang stabilized his body, and when he saw that Sidibi had already received the ball on the left side, he immediately turned around and ran back, in the opposite direction to the goal!
Aldreveld didn't dare to slack off anymore and followed closely, Li Liang's continuous unexpected performances made him very nervous, and even affected his most important judgment as a central defender.
This guy, is he worried that Sidibi on the side will lose the ball, so he will return to the defense in advance? Wait a minute, why didn't he burst into the box to grab a point!?
Aldreveld suddenly felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, and he had realized that he had made the lowest mistake!
Li Liang ran two steps back and made another sharp stop to turn back, trying to get past the Belgian and into the box.
Aldreveld, who is 1.85 meters tall, gritted his teeth desperately to slow down and turn around, and he was terrified to the extreme - the subtle imbalance in his mentality made the Premier League's top central defender actually shake off by No. 17 with the simplest reverse run!
His steps began to panic, because he could clearly see that his teammates Vertonghen, Kane and Janssen were all crowded around Falcao on the edge of the small penalty area, and there was an unguarded gap between them and himself!
The Belgian desperately chased back, hesitating whether to foul immediately behind Li Liang? Even at the cost of the Red Dot Package?
He still yelled: "Jean (Vertonghen), come up!" Aldreveld still chose to trust his team-mate, hoping that his partner would be able to defend against the number 17.
Li Liang suddenly adjusted his pace, he changed direction slightly, and continued to run diagonally, raising his hand to shout at Sidibi who was a little panicked as he ran.
Sidibi saw him right away, and the Frenchman quickly adjusted and whipped in a spinning cross with his right foot into the box from the left!
Li Liang didn't even ignore Vertonghen, who was already frantically catching up on the opposite side, and didn't think about Aldreveld, who was chasing after him, and rushed towards the landing point of the ball with all his might.
Sidibi's cross landed in an unsatisfactory way, if he switched to the right side to make such an arc, the striker who grabbed the point would be eager to kiss his boots - but on the left side, the effect was completely opposite, the flight trajectory of the ball drew an opposite arc, Li Liang had to "chase the top" to be able to grab the point!
On the other hand, as long as he occupies the position in advance, with a height of 1.89 meters, superhuman bounce and the physical fitness of a world-class central defender, Li Liang will not be able to win this aerial duel at all.
What frightened the two Belgians was that the number 17 had already adjusted his direction in the high-speed run before Sidibi's feet! After the ball was passed, they found out that No. 17 had made a judgment in advance and had chosen the running route closest to the landing point!
Vertonghen, Aldreveld and Li Liang are now the three closest to the ball on the pitch, and the two seasoned super centre-backs can't believe their eyes, how can the little-known No. 17 in front of him, this unknown person, be like those top center forwards, and predict the first drop point of the cross one step ahead?
How could he possibly have such an amazing sense of smell in front of the door?
Behind Li Liang, Aldreveld saw a scene that he would never forget for a long time: No. 17 took a powerful last step, his whole body sank violently, pressing the weight of his whole body on the supporting left leg, and his arms waved naturally and harmoniously behind his back - it really felt like he was about to spread his wings!
Yes, number 17 really flew! His left leg exploded, his arms slashed in front of him, and his body was fully stretched into the air - he really took off from the turf!!
Falcao, Germain, Sidibi and Silva all stopped, staring into the air with wide eyes.
Dillard dragged his injured leg and unconsciously stood beside the assistant coaches in front of the bench, shouting hoarsely with everyone: "Go! ”
Henry was already desperate and shouted: "Come on! ”
Mourinho also clenched his fists and roared: "Go! ”
Brooklyn and Romeo suddenly felt their father's hands on their shoulders clench.
Mu Zhaoge slammed his fist on the table in front of him, the computer jumped up, he couldn't feel the pain, and shouted: "Go! ”
The Monaco fans on the expedition roared with all their might: "Go! ”
Come on!
At this moment, didn't everyone see what they longed for the most from Li Liang, who had already jumped high?
Aren't all the blood, sweat and tears shed for all ten years of hard work for this moment?!
Come on, Li Liang, at this moment you are the focus of attention, you are the center of the storm, and the world is about to tremble because of you!
Vertonghen had also jumped high, Li Liang was rising in front of him, and the Belgian had already found out in despair that his opponent would definitely win this aerial duel!
Li Liang's eyes only had the ball and the goal behind the Belgian, he had already seen goalkeeper Lloris moving desperately, and he also saw that the ball had flown in front of him.
The body that was still rising suddenly relaxed in an instant, and then tensed up again at an astonishing speed, and all the muscles exploded at the same time, giving the body enough strength and speed, so that Li Liang relentlessly contracted his body from the backward tilt again, his waist and abdomen drove his torso, and his arms were raised in front of his chest to maintain the stability of the entire air posture.
Aldreverd's mouth wide open, looking up at Li Liang and Vertonghen in the air, as if in slow motion, he could even see the pattern of the ball spinning on the surface.
Time seemed to stand still, Li Liang had completely completed the aerial belly folding action, and hit the ball with his forehead!
He felt that this was the most perfect header he had ever played since he learned to play, and all the speed and forward momentum were gathered into this explosive aerial action!
Hearing the "bang", Vertonghen made a final push despite knowing that he had lost, and he opened his arms to look like he was balancing.
The ball pushed by Li Liang "just happened" to hit Vertonghen's right forearm, and immediately deflected and bounced to the left!
If the Belgian doesn't stretch out his hand, the ball will fall on the turf in front of Lloris and bounce, Lloris also judged this way, so he has made a save at the same time when Li Liang rushed to the top, and when he was about to land, he was surprised to find that the ball was deflected away from the goal!
Falcao, who saw the opponent's handball, immediately raised his hand and shouted, but his voice was completely drowned out by the huge exclamations in the stands.
Vertonghen and Li Liang landed at the same time, and before he and Aldrevelde could react, they saw that No. 17 had been activated like a ghost.
This time it was so fast that when many people watched the replay repeatedly, even Li Liang himself, it was not clear how he did it.
The whole process looks like it didn't take any thought at all, and everything that happened in less than a second was unbelievable.
