In Lisbon, the home fans in the stands of the Stadium of Light burst into cheers.

Lukaku and Valencia looked back at the same time: "Good guys! Lee, they're calling your name! ”

Li Liang heard it very clearly, and there were indeed many fans shouting about himself.

In last season's Champions League final, he fought hard with Cristiano Ronaldo to the end, which has made fans all over the world deeply remember the former Monaco captain, and Portuguese fans have a particularly deep memory.

In the England national derby four days ago, Manchester United's new no.7 who scored two goals at Anfield has been dubbed the 'new king' by the British media.

The footage of him dominating the field at Anfield has been broadcast all over the world, so before the start of this Champions League group stage, Li Lianggang caused a burst of applause as soon as the two teams warmed up.

An even more important reason is that in the pre-match UEFA promotional video, Li Liang's fluency in Portuguese and his easy-going, approachable smile after arriving in Lisbon with the team impressed Portuguese fans.

After the warm-up between the two sides and the final preparations before the start of the game, Ferdinand was still triumphantly teasing Gerrard and Owen in the BTsport studio: "...... If the game at Anfield had been extended by another five minutes, United would have secured three points! ”

Owen retorted unconvinced: "Coutinho has only recently returned to systematic training, Daniel (Sturridge) has just recovered, and that is not the strongest Liverpool. ”

Steven Gerrard also laughed: "Actually, Manchester United also have important players missing, and if Paul [Pogba] is there, the game will be even more unpredictable.

Look at the winter window, if one or two more good players come in, Liverpool will have a stronger squad. ”

Lineker brought the conversation back to the game at hand: "Okay gentlemen, let's talk about Benfica and Manchester United. ”

The four are unanimous, and the Red Devils, who are in their ascendancy, have a better chance of winning.

Li Liang walked out of the tunnel with everyone, and he started again with Mkhitaryan in this game, and the Armenian continued to occupy the middle, and he was placed on the right by the magic bird.

An eagle with a red and white ribbon tied around its feet to symbolize Benfica is spreading its wings and soaring into the air!

As is customary, Benfica held a falconry ceremony before the kick-off, and the entire Stadium of Light burst into loud cheers.

He Wei explained: "Hello audience, what you are seeing now is ......

Li Liang appeared in the starting lineup in this game! ”

Xue Yang said with great interest: "Previously, the media generally thought that Li Liang had a better feeling for the Champions League, but in the Double Red Tournament last weekend, he proved his strength with a near-perfect performance.

Now no one thinks that Li Liang is not suitable for English football and Manchester United's style of play. ”

He Wei also said: "At that time, when Li Liang's domestic parent team, Haicheng Hurricane Club, got the second transfer share, everyone was very shocked, but I didn't expect Li Liang to take up the Hurricane Club after one season and bring unimaginable benefits!"

But Monaco's vice-president Vasilyev said in a recent interview that if it wasn't for the will of Li Liang himself who played an important role in the transfer to Manchester United, Monaco would have planned to accept higher offers from other clubs!

He thinks that sooner or later Li Liang will prove that he is worth more than 80 million pounds! ”

The pre-match procedures are completed and the game officially begins.

In less than 5 minutes, the home fans in the stands of the Stadium of Light were already in deep anxiety -

Because they saw two teams that didn't seem to be in the same class at all.

In the 7th minute, Li Liang instigated a counterattack, he sent the ball just right to the feet of Valencia, who pressed the assist, and the Manchester United captain accelerated and passed back in time after the triangle was returned, Li Liang leaned over at the front point and jumped to the goal with a header!

Under the defense of the big Brazilian central defender Luizon who jumped up at the same time, Li Liang's strength was interfered with, and the home team's Belgian goalkeeper Sverrier moved in time to fly and barely save this very threatening header!

The thousands of Red Devils fans who accompanied the team began to chant: "...... There is only one Lee in this world, and he is now our number 7! ”

Mkhitaryan took a corner kick, Luisson cleared not far from the front, Li Liang got the ball at the edge of the penalty area and shot long, Benfica midfielder Pizzi jumped up to block but was deceived by the action of fake shot and real buckle!

Li Liang steadily pushed the ball into the penalty area with his left foot, Lukaku let the ball go sideways and immediately got up with his left foot, the ball hit Lindelof who couldn't dodge in front of the goal, and the bottom line popped up, the Manchester United players all held their heads in their hands in disbelief, and the home team's goalkeeper alarm was temporarily lifted.

Mourinho and Faria were both a little annoyed, and the magic bird immediately shouted to the field: "Well done, boys!

Push it up! ”

Li Liang's successive threatening attacks forced the home team to change their formation, and Brazilian midfielder Filipe Augusto dropped back to defend Li Liang with Serbian defender Fesa and Spanish left wing-back Grimaldo.

After Li Liang attracted the opponent's defensive focus, Mkhitaryan in the middle and Rashford on the left were like fish in water and played more and more actively.

United quickly established their midfield superiority, and Benfica, who were playing at home, had no choice but to set up the bus.

In the 25th minute, Li Liang played a wall-like combination with Mkhitaryan after getting rid of Grimaldo on the right side, and he bypassed Fersa and went straight to the penalty area!

In desperation, Augusto directly brought down Li Liang, and the Brazilian's foul also incurred a yellow card for himself.

Li Liang came off the field to receive treatment, and Mourinho and Faria stepped forward quickly and were extremely nervous.

Gaudino in front of the TV also gasped, and the slow motion of the replay showed Augusto, who was sprinting at full speed, knocked down from behind, and when he fell to the ground, Li Liang pressed the Brazilian and landed on his left shoulder!

The dirty old man still remembers that the injury in the same position last season brought Li Liang great torture!

"Lee, how do you feel?" The magic bird leaned over and asked anxiously.

Li Liang returned to the court after nearly 3 minutes of treatment, and he didn't seem to be affected much, and countless people in the stadium and in front of the TV breathed a sigh of relief.

Gerrard said: "Manchester United's tactics are very difficult to deal with, Lee can contain one or two defenders, so there is bound to be a big gap in the middle and on the left.

Unless they continue to reclaim and compress space on the pitch, Benfica will struggle to hold their opponents' attacks. ”

Sure enough, as he expected, Benfica waved all over the line and simply set up a bus at home.

At the end of the first half, the home team struggled to hold on to the score of 0:0.

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

In the 59th minute, Li Liang and Mkhitaryan switched, the latter returned the ball for the first time, Li Liang received the ball and strode past Fersa, and then cleverly got rid of Augusto!

A huge exclamation sounded at the Stadium of Light, and Manchester United's No. 7 broke out in an instant, and it was about to completely tear apart Benfica's defense!

The experienced Brazilian central defender Luisson rushed forward desperately and put the shovel directly!

Pi Ji's collision on the side made Li Liang fall to the ground heavily under the enemy's back!

United's No.7 immediately clutched his left shoulder tightly and flipped in pain......

The magic bird, which was blocked by Faria and the fourth official, roared angrily at the field, and the team doctor and assistant ran towards Li Liang in a 100-meter sprint......

The filthy old man stood in front of the TV and prayed nervously......

In the 62nd minute, the visitors made a substitution, and Mata came on to replace Li Liang, who could not hold on.
