Chapter 833: Just Do It!
Seeing Li Liang stepping back and measuring the step point with his left foot, Loris roared angrily: "Come on, you can try!"
That's impossible! β
The Tottenham goalkeeper, who had been yelling non-stop, had already read everything from Li Liang's eyes in the distance.
Neither Faria nor the other assistant coaches designed such a tactical signal for themselves, and Li Liang raised his arms high at the same time.
His teammates and opponents were stunned, and Mourinho straightened up angrily in his seat: "This bastard! β
He had already guessed what Li Liang was going to do.
What if the whole world knew about it?!
Li Liang began to run vigorously.
Even if you can't score, what?!
The last step has been taken, and the supporting feet are exactly in place.
He remembered the reply from his friends in his circle of friends who kept a neat formation-
Don't be cowardly, just do it!
With a "bang" sound, the ball soared into the air, the extremely twisted body, the fast-moving supporting feet, the large swing of the legs and the follow-up action, so that the ball gained strong kinetic energy and enough spin -
Henry was still answering Carragher's question: "...... Well, I've had it a few times before......
Lee is one of the most unusual penalty takers I've ever met, with a near-perfect balance of power and curvature......
Of course, with a distance of 35 meters, a 0-degree angle, if the opponent knows what you are going to do, the probability of success is about 0......"
At this moment, in Lloris's eyes, the ball was whistling like a dazzling tail flame like a flying body!
The French international gritted their teeth, and it can be seen from the video clips of Li Liang's various goals that they have watched hundreds of times that the timing is the most critical to save such a set-piece shot!
In the exclamations of Henry and Carragher, in the shouts of the mountains and tsunamis, under the screams and gaze of the rain, Loris moved quickly and jumped backwards and high in the airβ
Aurier jumped at the back post at the same time, and the former Parisian wing-back, who has the physique of a beast, reached almost the same height as Lloris!
Lloris did everything in his power to reach out and hit the ball!
Li Liang was dumbfounded, he saw that Lloris's total rating jumped to 91 at the moment of hitting the ball!
As the ball was blocked out of the net, Lloris and Aurier collided with each other......
Aldreveld cleared the ball out of the box with a big kick and a sharp whistle sounded at the same time.
The Manchester United players in the box and Tottenham Hotspur rushed towards Lloris and Aurier who fell to the ground, and the motionless Lloris was more worrying than Aurier, who kept flipping in pain.
Li Liang also rushed into the penalty area, and he saw Vertonghen kneeling on the ground nervously shouting to the Frenchman - Li Liang's conscience tightened, but fortunately, the Tottenham captain finally responded to the shouts of his teammates with difficulty.
In a standing ovation from the fans, Lloris was picked up by the team doctor and his teammates, as was Aurier, who was also lifted up by the team doctors, and even Manchester United's team doctors and assistants entered the stadium to help with treatment.
In the applause of the audience, Lloris walked out of the bottom line by himself, and it seemed that there was no big problem.
Li Liang stepped forward quickly: "Hugo (Loris), are you okay?" β
Loris moved his shoulders and squeezed out a smile: "How about it, brother, I said it was impossible, right?" β
Li Liang finally put his mind at ease, he smiled and touched the head of the Tottenham captain: "Nothing is impossible!" β
He turned to Aurier again, and the old acquaintance said, "Lee, are you crazy?
It's not a Champions League final! β
After speaking, both of them laughed, and Li Liang replied: "I will definitely treat you like Real Madrid!" β
Seeing the team doctor and assistant rushing into the field, Pochettino realized that his clenched fists were already sweaty due to nervousness.
On the side, Mourinho walked to the command area dissatisfiedly and shouted to the field: "Lee! β
Seeing the magic bird waving his hand slightly exaggerated and saying something fiercely to Li Liang, Henry said, "Seriously, this also scared me.
I don't know how Lee managed to maintain that set-piece feel......
But I know that no matter how talented I am, I will never be able to reach this level unless I practice it every day! β
Carragher continued: "Jose (Mourinho) seems to be very dissatisfied with Lee, he doesn't seem to like Lee playing as he wants!" β
Henry laughed, "I guess he's sorryβ
From now on, goalkeepers all over England know that the two corners are also within Manchester United's range!
This could have been a valuable surprise tactic! β
Lu Yue was also amazed: "It seems that the previous injury did not affect Li Liang's state at all!"
He has completely recovered from not being able to play at the beginning of the season to his best! β
After treatment, Lloris and Aurier returned to the game, and Tottenham, under the command of Pochettino, began to move back as a whole, concentrating on setting up a bus at the back, leaving only Son Heung-min cruising up front waiting for an opportunity to counter-attack.
Neither side produced a dangerous attack after that, and the first half ended in a 0-0 draw.
There were no substitutions after the break, and the second half continued.
To the surprise of the magic bird and the Manchester United players on the field, Tottenham Hotspur has gone through halftime adjustments, from positioning to playing style has been completely different!
Mauricio Pochettino pushed England international Dier, one of the centre-three centre-backs in the first half, into midfield and Oyer and Davies dropped back to play in a back four.
Son Heung-min continued to push forward as Tottenham piled up five players in midfield in an attempt to curb United's midfield advantage.
Dier, Sissoko and Winks will shrink to defend in the middle, and this change of formation immediately has a significant effect, Li Liang's space for movement has been suddenly reduced, and the rest of the Tottenham players have spared no effort to run, and the Red Devils suddenly appear passive on the field.
Mourinho discussed with Faria with a grim expression, and then the magic bird made on-the-spot adjustments on the sidelines, but the results were not significant.
In the 56th minute, Manchester United's attack in front was blocked, Rashford's return pass was cut off by Aurier, and Sissoko received the ball and quickly played to Aurier, who was inserted at high speed.
Tottenham managed to play a quick counter-attack, with Aurier using his pace to get past Ashley Young and drive straight in.
Li Liang is still desperately chasing back to defend, Aurier faces Bayi's interception and crosses directly, Ali and Li Liang rush to the ball at the same time, and their legs are entangled and they pounce on the ground at the same time!
The referee whistled and rushed to the scene of the incident, pinching the yellow card and constantly signaling Li Liang to get up.
Manchester United's No.7 watched blankly as the referee raised the yellow card to him, and Ali applauded hatefully on the side, and Eriksen shouted to the referee: "This should have been done a long time ago!" β
Henry and Carragher commented intently on the slow-motion replay, and Henry said: "Well, the yellow card is a bit harsh, but considering that if Dele [Ali] moves into position, there will be a good chance of a direct shot. β
Carragher said: "It's obviously very difficult to put Lee in a situation like this against Dele, who is three inches taller than him, and to get stuck in a position.
Dele's power advantage is a little bigger! β
The magic bird roared again: "Lee, pay attention to defensive moves!" β
Li Liang gave a thumbs up to the bench and quickly turned around to defend.
Tottenham's free-kick did not pose a threat and the game continued to be a stalemate.
In the 65th minute, the Magic Birds finally replaced Ashley Young with Anthony Martial in an attempt to continue to strengthen the attack to break the deadlock.
