Chapter 1022: He's a true champion

Despite the cursing, many fans in the stands turned their eyes to the Magic Bird standing stiffly in front of the coach's box.

Until the magic bird sat down, all kinds of complicated eyes still followed.

It was he who established Mkhitaryan as the heart of the Red Devils' attack, and then singled out the Armenian from the main squad until he was sent to Arsenal in exchange for thighs.

Breaking down Manchester United's doors at Old Trafford is undoubtedly the best revenge script for the Armenian.

After conceding the goal, United launched a fierce attack, with Arsenal's young defence withstanding the home side's attack with the help of a super-performing midfielder.

Even Colombian veteran goalkeeper Ospina, who usually only rotates in cup matches, played bravely, and blocked the shots of the little monster and Pogba in succession.

At the end of the first half, Manchester United was scoreless and temporarily trailed 0-1.

As everyone walked into the tunnel, someone in the stands finally shouted: "Please show your real skills, or we will lose all opportunities in a week!"

"Why don't you let Lee start!"

The Magic Bird in the home dressing room finally roared: "If we continue to play like this, we will be completely broken before we go to Camp Nou......

Not much was said about the tactical and non-tactical content, and it was clear to everyone that the coaching team had done a lot of preparation for this game.

Faria decided that Arsenal would play at Old Trafford as a substitute, and after much discussion, everyone agreed-

In addition to deciding that Li Liang had to get enough time to rest, Magic Bird decided to face the Gunners with the strongest lineup.

The locker room fell silent, and everyone turned their eyes to Li Liang.

According to the custom, it was time for the captain and the locker room bosses to talk, and Li Liang certainly knew what everyone was waiting for.

"Do you remember that timeβ€”

When we knew we were going to play City three times in a week, what was everyone's mind? ”

"We tied our hands and feet in today's game.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am afraid that I still have a say in this.

Last season at Monaco, we faced the same challenge, playing non-stop for a month, sometimes even two in 48 hours –

I think that's what a real championship team has to go through. ”

Faria was shocked to find that the atmosphere in the dressing room had completely reversed.

Li Liang finally said: "And my dearest fellows......

It really doesn't matter to me how much rest I have, anyway I promise you guys that as long as I'm on the pitch I'm going to give everything -

Come on, everybody, and show everyone what a real champion looks like! ”

Li Liang got up and opened his arms, tightly hugged the thighs and Pogba who came up, and the time to play was coming, everyone gathered in a circle in the center of the locker room and roared-

Watching the team members leave quickly, Faria shook his head and said, "Lee's words always seem to have a kind of magic, whether he is joking or trying to inspire everyone, it can always penetrate everyone's heart directly!" ”

Magic Bird put his arm around Faria's shoulder: "It's because what he's saying is what he's been through, and he's a true champion player!" ”

At the start of the second half, there were no personnel changes for either side.

Tang Meng is still worried: "We know that Manchester United's attacking ability has been criticised until the mid-to-late season changed tactics.

In fact, throughout Mourinho's career, what has been most impressive about him and the teams he has coached has been his iron-clad defensive style. ”

Lu Yue continued: "Some experts believe that this is because Mourinho prefers to use players with both body and strength, and is not good at tuning players with outstanding skills and awareness like Pep Guardiola.

Now that Li Liang is not on the field, Manchester United played a simple and lacked change in the offensive end in the first half, and I don't know how Mourinho will adjust in the second half and when he will replace Li Liang. ”

In the picture, Manchester United continued to press the attack across the board.

As soon as the camera turned to a close-up of Li Liang on the bench, Tang Meng and Lu Yue shouted at the same time: "Li Liang looks very relaxed!" ”

Faria walked over and arranged for all the substitutes to start warming up.

The professor, who had been sitting firmly in the coach's seat for the first half, got up at the same time and strode to the command area and shouted to his teammates.

Tang Meng: "Well, the professor has an idea!" ”

Lu Yue: "I have an idea!" ”

The magic bird has been very quiet from the second half, and Faria feels quite uncomfortable: "Jose, do you have to wait? ”

The magic bird replied, "Waiting!

This is the first time I've heard Lee himself mention a break......

At least subconsciously, this guy is really too tired.

And we have to be ready to play the full 120 minutes at Camp Nou! ”

Faria's eyes widened in surprise: "What!

120 minutes!

Do you think we can score three goals at Camp Nou?! ”

The magic bird replied loudly as he got up, "Even more! ”

Li Liang and Ibrahimovic, who were warming up not far away, all stopped, and the same was true of Arsenal's substitutes-

The white-haired professor was shouting something with his arms outstretched in the command area, and the magic bird was shouting with his hands to his mouth.

The shutter keeps ringing -

A close-up of the two coaches in the same frame also appeared on the big screen -

Since Magic Bird first took charge of Chelsea 14 years ago, I can't remember how many times it has been seen at Highbury, at Stamford Bridge, at the Emirates Stadium and on the sidelines at the Theatre of Dreams.

The attention of the fans in the stands quickly returned to the field, and in the sudden burst of cheers, Pogba won the ball in the middle and advanced to the front of the penalty area!

Facing the defense, Pogba calmly distributed the ball to the little monster ambushed on the right side of the penalty area, and the latter passed with his left foot to the far end -

In an exclamation, the thigh that was inserted at high speed on the left side leaned over and jumped to the top!

The ball was hit by Bellerin's outstretched foot and bounced off the left-hand post, and Pogba, who was outflanked in the chaos in front of the Gunners, scored with ease!

In the 61st minute, Manchester United chased the score to 1:1!

The Dream Theater is boiling in an instant!

After celebrating passionately with his assistants, Magic Bird immediately regained his composure and shouted, "Let Marouan and Anthony [Martial] playβ€”"

In the excited singing of the whole stadium, Anthony Martial replaced the little monster who sent a wonderful assist, Fellaini replaced Herrera in the midfield and began to play as a central striker, and Manchester United continued to strengthen the attack!

The little monster obviously didn't want to leave the game, and he still looked depressed when he returned to the bench.

Li Liang ran over: "Romelu, how do your legs feel?" ”

The little monster said indignantly: "It's no problem to play for two 90 minutes in a row!" ”

Li Liang hugged the neck of the little monster: "Very good, we are likely to play more than 90 minutes at Camp Nou, plus the 60 minutes you played today, it is exactly two 90 minutes!" ”

The little monster was just as dumbfounded as Falia!

……

The young Gunners were clearly affected by the goals they conceded and could barely get past midfield under strong pressure from United.

Soon in the 67th minute, Arsenal's midfield made a mistake, Matic directly broke the ball and passed diagonally to the left, and Ashley Young, who assisted, deducted the defense and sent a diagonal pass -

Li Liang and the little monster stood up at the same time-

They saw the tall red figure, the familiar "unkempt" hairstyle!

Fellaini in the box jumped high from the middle of the man and hit the ball with his back to the head with an unconventional move -

The ball crossed the desperate Ospina in the air and landed in the net against the right post!

The Dream Theater shook the mountains, and Xiaoyu raised his arms in the stands like everyone else and cheered loudlyβ€”

Tang Meng shouted: "It's Fellaini who scores!"

In the 68th minute, Manchester United overtook him!

2:1! ”

Lu Yue was also amazed: "Manchester United is like a rainbow!"

How many times have they reversed?

Of course, there is still time in the game, and it cannot be said that Manchester United have won the opponent until the last second. ”

The professor then made a series of changes, except for Kolasinac with Monreal, and Mkhitaryan with youngster Willock.

Since then, United have been firmly in control of the situation and the atmosphere has been uneventful.

It wasn't until the 83rd minute that applause and cheers rang out again in the stands, and Li Liang stood on the sidelines and prepared to play.

Tang Meng sighed with emotion: "Li Liang himself said that he is an Arsenal fan.

It is Arsene Wenger at Arsenal since he watched the ball, and today is Arsene Wenger's last game at Old Trafford as Arsenal manager, and now Li Liang is about to play. ”

Li Liang replaced the thigh of the hero and appeared in a familiar position in the middle.

The home side's advantage was even more evident after the introduction of United's number 7, and the game quickly entered the final moments.

In the first minute of stoppage time, Li Liang's beautiful breakthrough in the middle helped Martial form a single knife!

The French striker fired wide from Ospina and the referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game.
