Alexander received a precise long pass from Liu Yun and headed the goal. The ball smashes into the bottom left corner of the gate.

Portsmouth's goalkeeper makes a sideways pray. It's a pity that Alexander was too close to the goal, and the header landed so well that he couldn't save!

The ball went in, 2:2! Coventry City miraculously equalised!

Instead of celebrating the goal, Alexander ran to Liu Yun's side, grabbed his arm, and pulled him towards the front of the South Stand. The South Stand is the home of Portsmouth fans.

Alexander said to Liu Yun, "Liu, my brother, follow me." ”

Liu Yun has been learning English with Zhang Li every night for a while, and he understands Alexander's words. Even happier than the success of the assist was that Alexander went so far as to call him "brother". This shows that Alexander, as the captain, has accepted himself!

Alexander bent over, waved his right hand, and placed his hand on his left shoulder. He made a standard English bow towards the fans of his arch-rival Portsmouth! Liu Yun did the same, and also made a bowing motion!

This is the biggest provocation to the fans of sworn enemy Portsmouth!

Coventry fans are excited! Damn Portsmouth mongrels, you know how awesome Coventry is now, right?

Coventry fans began to sing swear words: "Portsmouth mongrels, we bow to you. Because you lose every week, we bow to you, Portsmouth mongrels who lose every week! ”

Liu Yun has only been on the field for more than ten minutes, and he has a goal and an assist. At this time, he has won the recognition and respect of Coventry people!

Outside the Ricoh Stadium, whether it is the fans in the bars in Coventry City, or the old and weak women and children fans in Coventry who can't go to the scene of the battle of the mortal enemy, they are all in a frenzy at this time!

Mrs. Nelson even picked up her grandson and kissed his little face frantically. Gloria, an English noblewoman, raised her middle finger at the TV: "Taste Coventry's bow greeting, Portsmouth mongrel!" ”

Portsmouth also led 2:0 in the first half, and was chased twice by Coventry in the first ten minutes of the second half. The head coach of Portsmouth couldn't sit still, you know, this game is not only a battle of mortal enemies for Portsmouth, but also whether they can hold on to the top of the league table! He made decisive substitutions. And his substitution adjustment is a big one, replacing two players at a time!

It has to be said that Portsmouth has been able to lead the standings for a long time this season, and its strength should not be underestimated. Soon they came out of the shadow of conceding two goals in a row and went all out to attack Coventry's half.

Portsmouth's goal is clear: to take the three points away at the Ricoh Stadium and humiliate arch-rivals Coventry, while consolidating their top spot!

Coventry City were also in high spirits after chasing two goals in a row. The two sides pointed to Mai Mang, and fell into a tug-of-war. Liu Yun scored a goal and an assist in ten minutes, which caused alarm in the Portsmouth team. The Park team immediately had a defender close to defend Liu Yun. Even without the ball, Liu Yun will take root wherever he goes. As soon as Liu Yun took the ball, more than two defenders stuck to him. Under such "preferential treatment", Liu Yun does not have many good opportunities to perform.

The two sides are back and forth in a tug-of-war, and the range of movement of the players is getting bigger and bigger. In the 70th minute, captain Alexander maliciously fouled and was warned by the referee with a yellow card. In the 75th minute, the Portsmouth centre-back tackled a Coventry player and was also booked.

The battle between Portsmouth fans and Coventry fans in the stands has also intensified.

"Portsmouth! Bastard! Portsmouth! Bastard! ”

"Coventry! Stupid donkey! Coventry! Stupid donkey! ”

Time passed minute by minute in the tug-of-war between the two teams. In the blink of an eye, it was the eighty-seventh minute of the game.

Alexander stepped in from a midfield position to instigate the attack. His vision was wide and he saw Liu Yun at the edge of the forbidden area.

He got up and passed the ball straight to Liu Yun. The moment Liu Yun received the ball with his back, he was pushed by the Portsmouth defender behind him. Liu Yun stumbled, lost his balance, and almost fell, and the ball fell to the feet of the Park defender. This small action of pushing people by the Park defender is very hidden. The referee didn't see it at all.

However, this small action escaped the eyes of the referee, but it did not escape the eyes of the linesman! All referees in League Two are equipped with headsets.

The linesman reminded the referee via a headset that a Portsmouth defender had committed a foul.

The referee blew the whistle without hesitation! Kick! Free kick from the edge of the box!

This free kick is about 25 meters from the goal, on the right side of the arc of the penalty area, in an excellent position!

As the captain of the team, Alexander has good footwork. He was always Coventry's No. 1 penalty taker. He straightened the ball and the Portsmouth players lined up the wall.

At this time, Liu Yun walked up to Alexander and asked in stiff English, "Can I be punished?" ”

Alexander was stunned!

If Liu Yun made such a request 40 minutes ago, he would not hesitate to push Liu Yun away. and scolded Liu Yun in the locker room after the game.

But now, Liu Yun's performance not only conquered the fans, his teammates, the head coach George, but also the bearded Alexander, the captain on the field!

Alexander patted Liu Yun on the shoulder and signaled that he would be in charge! A 25-meter free kick from the edge of the penalty area, a direct shot on goal has a lethal threat!

Liu Yun took two steps back, ran up, and shot!

At the moment of shooting, Liu Yun tried his best to turn his whole body, and used the instep of his inner foot to touch the ball at an angle of almost zero degrees. This style of play gives the ball maximum spin. The ball flies forward in a high-speed spinning state, and it will have the maximum arc of the flight trajectory!

The culmination of this free-kick style is none other than former England captain David Beckham. This kind of arc free kick has a well-known name in international football - Best's arc!

At the moment when Liu Yun kicked the goal, the whole audience fell into a dead silence! Now that the game has reached 87 minutes, the high-intensity confrontation of the battle of sworn enemies has reduced the physical strength of both sides to the lowest point. The score on the field was still 2:2. This may be the last great chance for Coventry to overtake the scoreline!

The ball flew high and made a wonderful arc, going around the wall and going straight to the top right corner of the goal!

The angle of this free-kick shot is really awkward! The Portsmouth goalkeeper had already jumped high and even touched the ball with the tip of his middle finger.

However, the ball still got into the net like a bullet! 3：2！ The Coventry team miraculously chased three goals in a row to overtake the score in the unfavorable situation of falling behind 0:2! Liu Yun almost single-handedly turned this battle of mortal enemies into a humiliation for the people of Portsmouth!

The moment the ball was scored, there was a 1-second silence at Ricoh Stadium. Liu Yun's textbook curling free kick stunned everyone in the stadium. Then the entire Ricoh Stadium fell into an unprecedented boil! Coventry fans cheered.

Even the always calm old George sat up from the coach's seat, raised his arms and shouted!

Zhang Li, who was sitting on the bench as a translator, also stood up and shouted to the field: "Lao Liu, good job!" ”

When all the players in Coventry City were filled with joy in overtaking the score, Alexander ordered Liu Yun with a serious face: "Liu, as the captain of the field, I order you to lift your right foot." ”

Liu Yun understood Alexander's unbelievable order. Alexander was the captain, and his orders had to be obeyed. Confused, he lifted his right foot.

The bearded Alexander actually knelt down in front of Liu Yun in front of tens of thousands of fans, spread out his hands, and made a gesture to polish Liu Yun's shoes!

This goal celebration has ignited the passion of 20,000 Coventry fans! They began to dye the fireworks sticks in the stands, and I don't know who sang first: "There is only one Liu in the world." Then there was a chorus of hundreds, thousands, and 20,000 fans singing in unison: "There is only one Liu in the world!" ”

With two goals and one assist in the battle of mortal enemies, Liu Yun has become a hero at Ricoh Stadium at this time!
