The door to the locker room was opened, and Carrick took Li Liang's arm and walked in together.

The medical team immediately stepped forward to pick up Li Liang, and surrounded by busy people, the Manchester United captain lay shirtless on the treatment bed and quietly listened to Faria's tactical arrangements.

The magic bird finally spoke: "...... Many times, including myself when I was younger, I always believed that hard work could change everything-

If it fails, then it must be because the effort is not enough.

If we can give our lives for victory, then we can do it-

But now I'm trying to say something else. ”

The locker room became quiet, and even Li Liang, who was on an infusion, pushed away the team doctor and sat up.

The voice of the magic bird became calmer and calmer: "It is undeniable that Antonio (Conte) is a great master tactician, top-notch, unique.

Thibaud (Courtois), Cesar (Cesar Azpilicueta), Gary (Cahill) and N'Golo, Timoé and Sesque (Cesc Fabregas) and, of course, Eden (Hazard) –

They are all real champion-level players. ”

As soon as these words came out, the locker room was suddenly silent, and in a trance, in addition to their own breathing and heartbeat, many people seemed to hear the sound of liquid dripping from the catheter of the infusion stand next to Li Liang.

Magic Bird walked up to Li Liang and put his hand on his captain's shoulder: "I believe that you will definitely be able to come here again (new Wembley) in the next season......

In addition to Lee, there are also people among us who have played in the final of the Champions League -

However, many more people will not be able to get such opportunities in their lifetimes.

And Kyiv is waiting for us. ”

After the silence, Faria interjected: "Yes, Antonio (Conte) understands this too!" ”

The magic bird waved his hand to signal the excited assistant to calm down: "What Rui said is not wrong at all!

Antonio and his teammates gave us a multiple-choice question -

There are only two options –

Either take out all our chips or calm down and get back to the undoubtedly most important game of the season. ”

The atmosphere became more and more solemn, and several young players seemed to be overwhelmed by the heavy pressure.

Visibly trembling as he covered his shirtless thighs with a bath towel, Pogba simply leaned back against the back of the chair, his eyes glazed over.

Even Ibu lifted his chin with both hands, motionless.

Li Liang took a deep breath, which immediately attracted everyone's attention-

The Manchester United captain seems to be on the verge of a free-kick moment that can win the game!

He stood up and said clearly, "Jose, how did I get here?" ”

Faria immediately got up again and tried to assert the manager's authority: "We won five games to get to the new Wembley!

Please let José finish, Lee ......"

Li Liang replied loudly: "I'm not asking 'we', I'm saying how did 'I' get here?"

How did you get to AON Centre, how did you get to Old Trafford, how did you get here?! ”

This time, the magic bird pressed Li Liang's shoulder: "You came here for victory, for the championship!"

Alright, let me finish, Captain!

It's all your time! ”

Carrick also walked over, and Ibrahimovic and De Gea also stepped forward to persuade him, and even ripped off the bath towel on his thigh: "For God's sake, please let José finish speaking, Lee!" ”

Li Liang sat down again, and the magic bird continued: "What I didn't say in the tactics class is that of course I think you and I have similar opinions.

- That's when we played Chelsea today, one goal, whoever scored the first goal was enough to decide the title!

I have no intention of giving up anything, I just want to remove the rock off your shoulders.

If we end up losing, it's definitely not because we didn't do it well enough!

No matter what, we're making our own history! ”

After the magic bird signaled that he was finished, everyone turned their eyes to Li Liang.

The Manchester United captain got up again and pulled the needle out of his arm!

Faria exclaimed and pounced, "You're crazy, Lee! ”

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"It hurts!"

Li Liang grinned and cooperated with the team doctor and assistants to help him stop the bleeding, and then turned to the people who were still in a state of shock: "Saying that, I'm really tired of it."

Maybe we've all forgotten about the good wins and just remembered all the toughest comebacks.

The game is just a few minutes away—

In these few minutes, the wound will soon stop bleeding under the action of platelets, and it will not take long to heal completely.

But the wounds caused by the defeat will not be healed by another season at the earliest, and even as Jose said just now, 'a lifetime of poverty' will not be healed-"

The magic bird standing aside shrugged its shoulders.

Li Liang continued: "I don't know, and I don't care why Jose said those words just now.

I just want to tell you as exactly as possible why I joined Manchester United.

- At that time, it was because I wanted to be better.

Because Jose told me when I was nothing, he said that he 'can't see any player who is desperate to win, and he is getting farther and farther away from fulfilling his wish!' ’

- José, did you forget?

When I was an amateur, you told me that 'what you really need is a player who will never be satisfied'! ”

……

Several staff members anxiously banged on the closed doors of the United dressing room, and some kept shouting through the door: "It's game time, gentlemen, the whole of England and the world are waiting for you!" ”

Everyone left their seats and stood up, oblivious to the commotion coming from outside the door and the anxious cries coming from the intercom on the table.

The magic bird stretched out its arms fiercely: "I am your head!"

I need to be responsible for everyone, but I need to be responsible for the whole team!

We have already lost David [De Gea] in Kyiv and if we lose any more important players......"

Li Liang, who had already put on his jersey, tightened the captain's armband: "Come on, everyone, I told you!"

Leo, Barcelona and now Chelsea are our 'ferrymen' and they will take us higher and better -

To get the last win in Kyiv, we have to win all the finals like we did 19 years ago!

We must take back what is rightfully ours! ”

"Please stay calm! Plum!

It's hard for your body to withstand ......"

"One week is enough time for me to fully recover like a 19-year-old!

I promise! ”

Li Liang opened the door violently, and the staff gathered outside the door were so frightened that they retreated again and again-

Hearing the wind, the others gathered in the corridor heard "Forward!" before they could squeeze forward. ”“U-N-I-T-E-D！” Amazing roar!

Everyone unanimously opened the way, and the red Manchester United players came out under the leadership of the captain -

In the face of the boos that resounded in the stadium, 11 Red Devils strode towards their own half.

Li Liang deliberately stretched out his hand as he passed Bakayoko.

In front of the coach's seat, Faria quietly asked, "Jose, can you tell me what the hell is going on now?!" ”

Magic Bird lowered his head and picked up the water bottle: "Those are true, just like the ones I only said to you before the game, all of them are my truest thoughts. ”

Faria hesitated: "Okay.

I thought you and Lee had discussed it in advance......"

Magic Bird gulped down the water and tightened the water bottle: "Of course you can think so.

- When I first met Lee about two and a half years ago, we talked about it in advance. ”
