Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Struggle for British Supremacy (4)

"Shh!!!h

'Manchester United No.13, keep your emotions in check, I don't want to see anything like that happen again. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 In the shrill boos of the Ebrox Stadium, the referee on duty warned Li Lei, who was very "reckless" just now.

"No problem, sir." The referee neither awarded a penalty nor showed him a yellow card, and Li Lei was very satisfied with the result, so he behaved very honestly.

It's just that he's satisfied, and the Rangers fans, managers and players can't stand it. Penalties, no yellow cards, do you think this is Old Trafford, this is the great Ebrox!

Until the referee warned Li Lei, they did not calm the unwillingness, resentment and anger in their hearts. Amid the boos and abuse from the Rangers fans, not only were the Rangers players still besieging the referee relentlessly, but their head coach McLeish was also washing the face of the fourth official with his own spittle.

The former Aberdeen pro of Alex Ferguson, now a young coach in the limelight in Scotland, is not saving any face for Ferguson, and is vehemently complaining about the behaviour of Manchester United's players, especially Rio Ferdinand and Lee Lei.

It turns out that in the stadium, the referee is sacrosanct. If you encounter a referee with a strong personality today, you can still endure it.

In the end, not only did he not get a penalty, but he also did not get a yellow card for Manchester United's players, but McLeish, who was too anxious to use too rude words, was warned by the referee with a yellow card.

At this moment, the Ebrox Stadium is about to explode!

In this chaotic period of time, there was no way to restart the game immediately. At this time, it is often the time to test the on-the-spot adaptability of the live broadcast director, how to find a picture that can attract the attention and attention of fans in addition to the game.

It's just that this time it's obviously not difficult for the live director of this game. Because, with Li Lei's big-stirring stick in front, it is too easy to find something hot and fresh from him.

When the picture of Li Lei returning to the door with a satisfied smile appeared on the big screen at the scene, the Wanderers fans who were already angry immediately took Li Lei as their venting point.

Although the referee on duty is the real culprit, Li Lei, the culprit who aggravated the conflict on the field, is not an innocent person.

Almost instantly, the sky-high boos and invective poured down on Li Lei's body.

Because the fan stands of the Soviet Super League are the same as those in the Premier League, which are very close to the stadium, Li Lei may find it difficult to hear what those excited Rangers fans are scolding him, but it is not difficult to know that they are scolding him, after all, he is the only yellow person on the field at this time, isn't it.

“.... Yellow-skinned monkey.... Damn ....."

".... You.... Cheap...."

“....”

.......

Listening to these angry scoldings, Li Lei put away his smile and raised his eyebrows disdainfully. Through the experience of living in the slums, this kind of angry and depraved scolding could no longer stimulate his emotions and made him lose control. In this respect, he is better than his peers who can't stand a little abuse and contempt.

It's just that he can stand it, and he doesn't fight back when he is passively scolded, this is not his style. Li Lei kept this account in his heart, and when he waited for the opportunity in the future, he vented it in one go.

After a while, the game finally resumed.

At this time, due to Ferdinand's three and two problematic performances, Ferguson, who had been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai on the sidelines, finally couldn't help it, and the old coach began to come to the sidelines and shout loudly to Ferdinand.

As for the final effect, Li Lei is not optimistic. Judging from the current situation, Ferdinand has obviously encountered some interference from off-field matters, and this matter should be very difficult, otherwise with his ability and experience, he should have adjusted a long time ago.

This kind of interference with the state of the players is not the kind of natural sluggishness of the players, but can be adjusted by the players' short-term self-mediation and the temporary spur of the coach on the sidelines.

In addition to this, there is another thing that makes Li Lei a little strange, Ferguson's shouting to Ferdinand is too polite, which is not in line with the old coach's consistent style of strong and iron-blooded army.

He glanced at Ferdinand meaningfully, and felt that Ferguson knew about this troublesome thing.

However, it was not his turn to take care of this matter, Li Lei shook his head and left this matter behind, with this effort, it is better to save some energy to beware of the pit that Ferdinand may dig.

I don't know if it was affected by this conflict, the Rangers players have been more anxious after the game restarted, although they are still very active on the field, but the threat created is much less than before, but it allowed Manchester United to take the opportunity to play a few waves of threatening counterattacks, but unfortunately Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy, who each got a chance to shoot, failed to seize the opportunity to help Manchester United expand the score.

Under such circumstances, Li Lei naturally will not be busy in the last few minutes of the first half, and it should even be said that he is almost as idle as a bystander.

When the referee on duty finally blew the whistle for the end of the first half of the game, Li Lei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Regardless of the fact that he didn't make a few saves in the first half, Rio Ferdinand's inability cost him a lot of energy and mental energy, which was a kind of mental pressure and fatigue.

Taking advantage of the halftime time, he wants to relax his nerves, which have been tense.

Back in the dressing room, Ferguson said nothing about tactical play other than a few words of encouragement to the United players. In fact, it is needless to say that almost all of the most dangerous crises created by Rangers in the first half were caused by Rio Ferdinand's erratic performance, and had nothing to do with United's tactics and quality.

As Manchester United's main central defender, Ferdinand naturally will not be replaced by Ferguson in the half because of a bad first half, but a few harsh beatings should be indispensable.

But the strange thing is that Ferguson didn't even say anything except for calling Ferdinand to stop Ferdinand before the start of the second half after the Manchester United players walked out of the dressing room.

Such a performance made Li Lei sit down and confirm the judgment in his heart, Ferguson must know something. He doesn't care what this "what" is, he just hopes that Ferguson can get Ferdinand back to normal as soon as possible.

After all, he is not a superman, and if Ferdinand continues like this, Li Lei cannot guarantee that he can always ensure that the goal is not lost.

But it was clear that at least in the opening stages of the second half, Rio Ferdinand's form did not return to normal as he had hoped.

Originally, Ferguson instructed Manchester United to strengthen the attack in the second half to reduce the pressure on the backline, but what he didn't expect was that it was Rangers who had the advantage of home to take the lead in the second half.

Just two minutes into the second half, they took advantage of aggressive pressing up front to make a chance through their left wing-back Lowencranz on the edge of the box. Not to mention, the quality of this flustered shot is really good, the football sticks to the turf, and keeps jumping in the opposite direction of Li Lei's far corner.

Damn, how much water did they pour at halftime!

When he first came on the field, Li Lei didn't care, but at this time, he saw the strange speed of the football on the turf, and immediately realized that the Rangers must have poured a lot of water on the turf at halftime. No wonder he hit a long-range shot as soon as he started in the second half, he didn't believe it was just a coincidence.

Luckily, he was focused and didn't let up just because the second half had just begun. This allowed him to make a timely save, and with his legs fully exerting his strength to kick the ground, he finally got his big palm into the path of the ball before it was about to jump into the net.

But in a hurry, his hand shape was not as good. This is also the reason why he has not really been professionally trained long enough, and his muscles have not yet fully formed muscle memory.

With a bang, the ball was stopped back in front of goal by the crowd of exclamations.

At this time, it is time to test whether the central defenders in the back line can come in time to clear the siege. But when Li Lei just looked up, he saw a scene that made him panic.

Aviradze, who was originally under Ferdinand's marking, actually appeared in front of the football at this time, and had already made a supplementary shot, and Ferdinand was completely left behind by him.

Such a close-range shot, or before Li Lei got up, this is simply a golden opportunity to score, and Manchester United's defense is in danger at this moment!

you!!

At this moment of crisis, Li Lei didn't even have time to have the idea of complaining about Ferdinand in his mind, he directly gritted his teeth, his whole body instantly tensed and fully exerted his strength, and his body jumped forward directly like an energetic catfish while lying on his side on the court.

At this time, no matter how superhuman Li Lei's reaction speed is, he can't make a complete save.

He could only do his best to straighten his upper body and spread his limbs widely, hoping to expand the defensive area as much as possible, hoping that he would be lucky enough to block Lowencranz's follow-up shot.

Although he doesn't like this passive feeling of not being in control, at this moment, Li Lei can only hope that he has good luck today.

Luckily, his luck was good.

I don't know if it's because I'm too nervous or because of my lack of preparation, anyway, Lowencranz's golden shot seems to be a little too hasty, and the angle is too right.

The football that was kicked by him flew up, and finally when Li Lei didn't have time to see where the football went, he took the initiative to hit Li Lei's open left arm.

When there was a touch on his left arm, when Li Lei didn't have any thoughts in his mind, his hands immediately subconsciously waved up and closed, which formed a striking effect on the football.

In the end, the football was directly hit by him to the bottom line.

"Oh!!"

In the loud sighs of the Rangers fans in the audience, Li Lei, who had completed the save, held his hands and jumped up from the turf in place.

This save may not be the most critical or the most wonderful save Li Lei has made so far, but it is definitely the most uncertain save and the most helpless save he has made so far.

Only in the end, luck was completely on his side.

This kind of stimulation of surviving in his powerless life and death crisis made him crazy in an instant at this moment!

Like a madman, he strode up to Lovencranz, who was full of regret, and shouted at him: "You can't score!" ”

"As long as I allow you, you won't fucking get in!!"

"Can't get into !!"

With its mouth wide open, it looks like a fierce beast roaring in the sky!

Aggressive!!

Evil gods!!
