During the rest of the day, in addition to practicing by himself in the morning when the thunder could not move, Li Liang and Xiaoyu invited everyone to lunch together.

To everyone's surprise, it seems that Li Liang has completely recovered from yesterday's fierce battle.

Looking at the bandaging on his leg, everyone asked with concern, Li Liang smiled: "It's okay, the wound is very shallow......

It was scary to look at at the time, but in fact, it was not a big problem, and it definitely did not affect the future games......"

The bald head Qiang was amazed: "Liangzi, your physical fitness has improved too much!"

I guess I won't be able to keep up with you now! ”

Li Liang replied: "Brother Qiang, you are still in good health!" ”

Feng Yihan continued: "If we just run around the circle, maybe our people are not bad, but like Liangzi, you did yesterday, you have always been strong against each other-

Few of our people can hold on! ”

During the banquet, everyone sighed, and Lao Xu recalled the time when he came to Manchester two years ago: "...... I remember that Vieira was making a decision after watching Ryoko play a game, and I especially wanted to take Ryoko directly to New York......"

Mr. Wu smiled: "I didn't go!"

Otherwise, everyone will watch the live broadcast of yesterday's game now!

I might have just read a headline before, who cares what Manchester United can do with Manchester City?! ”

Feng Yihan toasted Li Liang with tea instead of wine: "I will tell others now that I was scored by Liangzi back then, and many people say that I brag!" ”

Everyone laughed, and Mr. Wu announced on the spot that he would postpone his return trip and would take everyone to watch the remaining two Manchester City Super Derby, winning a burst of cheers from everyone!

To everyone's surprise, the other diners around them actually started fighting, and some people shouted to Li Liang: "Captain, please keep winning!" ”

"Onward!

Manchester United! ”

……

In the afternoon, according to the advance agreement, Li Liang and Willy came to the AON Center.

The magic bird is already waiting in the office.

He was also a little surprised when he saw Li Liang: "Li ......

Looks like you're recovering a lot better than I expected!

Usually after such a race, it is more difficult to recover from mental fatigue! ”

Li Liang replied, "I understand what you mean, Jose!

This time I was a little surprised myself, it felt like yesterday's game wasn't over yet, and there was still half of the game-

No, it should be said that it was only 1/3 of the way through! ”

A smile appeared on the face of the magic bird: "Very good......

Eight years ago, Diego (Milito) and Wesley (Sneijder) said similar things to you! ”

……

At the AON Centre the day before the game, everyone was ready to go to the hotel, just before the last tactical lesson before the second consecutive Super Manchester derby of the weekend.

The specific content has already been announced internally in the tactical manual in front of everyone, and everyone is quietly watching the magic bird on the stage.

Magic Bird finally spoke: "I'm probably one of the people I know most with Pep, even if we didn't have the years we worked together at Barcelona, we have played 21 games since we both became coaches......

yes, you all know I've only won 6 of them —

Pep has won 8 times!

But what I want to tell you here is that this record will be rewritten soon! ”

……

In the lobby of the Lowry Hotel, Li Liang, Ibu, Pogba, Thighs and Little Warcraft sat together drinking coffee.

The Swede joked about Pogba: "Manchester City have lost two games in a row to us and tomorrow they will definitely put us under pressure like never before.

Paul, are you really ready? ”

Pogba also laughed, but he quickly put away his smile: "If I were to continue to be a spectator, I would rather die!"

I know how to compete, how to win! ”

"Good!"

Li Liang nodded: "I think Jose's analysis is very reasonable, Manchester City will be more stressed in this game than at Old Trafford-

Of course we are.

Frankly, I think they're probably only conceding one or two points at most in the remaining six league games......

That means even if we win tomorrow, we have to win all the remaining games......"

The thighs took a long breath and counted the fingers: "6 league games, at least-

Well, no, I mean we probably have three more Champions League games in addition to the third game against Manchester City!

That's a total of 10 games, and by the way, Tottenham......

So, we have to win all the remaining 12 games!?

Is that what it means?

Plum? ”

The little monster blurted out: "Win 12 games in a row?!"

Is this so possible......

Oh no, no, I mean, maybe there's a draw, maybe a penalty shootout or something, hahaha......"

The atmosphere suddenly became slightly awkward, and soon became heavy again.

Li Liang looked at the coffee cup in front of him: "When we played Lyon at home last season, Benjamin (Mendy) was sent off in the first half, and we fell into a total passivity.

I scored a goal in the second half, but then I couldn't continue because I was exhausted.

In the end we lost to Lyon. ”

Everyone listened attentively, Li Liang took a sip of coffee and continued: "Lyon is one of the opponents we are most reluctant to lose in France, and the morale of the whole team fell into a low point after that game.

Leonardo [Yaldim] told us that we would win all the remaining games! ”

Ibrahimovic replied: "Yes, you did, you managed to make Unai Emery's team [Paris Saint-Germain] lose the league title!" ”

The thigh asked, "Li, how did you do it, and you are still fighting on two fronts?" ”

Li Liang replied with a wry smile: "Last season's Monaco, in addition to the starting 11, couldn't even make up half a qualified rotation lineup.

In the early days, when I saw Di Maria, Thiago (brother-in-law), Edinson [Cavani], I couldn't help but ask myself, 'How can I possibly fight them?'

God, these are some of the strongest people in the world! ’”

Ibrahim: "But you won Paris 3-1 the first time!" ”

Li Liang: "Yes, after that, I began to believe-

'We can really beat an opponent like Paris!' ’

Soon we beat Tottenham again, and again at the new Wembley!

– By the time we beat Manchester City at the Louis II Stadium, I and the rest of us started to believe that maybe something big was going to happen! ”

Paul Pogba: "You've beaten Juventus again! ”

Li Liang became serious: "At that time, everyone realized that not only had they defeated almost all the opponents in the league, but we could do more!"

That feeling—

Actually, just like now!

I would say that the road to Kyiv is going to be getting tougher and harder, and tomorrow's game will be part of it......"

……

In the early morning of April 7, Li Liang woke up on time as usual.

He got up and looked at the wound on his leg first—

He has almost completely recovered.

He pushed open the door of the gym, Pogba was running on the treadmill with huge headphones, and the other thighs and small monsters were practicing on the equipment.

He turned his thigh and asked with a smile, "Lee, will your good friend today, Mr. 'Big Man', also come to watch the game?" ”
