To verify whether a goalkeeper can become a strong team, or the main goalkeeper of a giant, his saving skills on the goal line, high-altitude ball handling, attack timing judgment and so on are all important assessment items.

But in addition to these, there are also some projects that are not so conspicuous in comparison, which can be seen at once, and they are often ignored, and the situation Li Lei is in at this time is undoubtedly one of them.

If it is a strong dialogue between strong teams and strong teams, then this is naturally irrelevant, after all, in such a game, a goalkeeper can't do it even if he wants to be idle.

However, this is not the case when the strong team is playing against the weak team. It is very important for any goalkeeper to ensure that his form, energy and concentration are not consumed by the full 90 minutes of the game, which lasts for an hour or even more free time.

Because the reality in this world is that there are many more weak teams than strong teams. If the strong confrontation is the beautiful shooting stars that cross the night sky from time to time, then the strong and weak competition is the many stars in the night sky.

And, the point is, in terms of value, a fierce game of strong and strong confrontation is the same as a strong and weak game, both are either won to get three points or advance, or lose and lose three points or eliminated, and there will never be a game where a strong confrontation is worth two or three strong and weak games.

Therefore, for those strong teams who want to strive for good results and win as many trophies as possible every season, it is important to win the strong and strong matches and directly hit their main competitors, but it is also indispensable to win all the strong and weak games as much as possible.

Otherwise, the strong team is likely to become a rich and poor Red Army, even if they win a direct confrontation with all the main rivals, only to lose a few more games against the weak team that should have been won, and then lose the eventual championship, and the team's entire season of hard work will be in vain.

This way of losing the championship is definitely the most cowardly and unwilling way for any strong team. Therefore, how to avoid this situation is the most important issue that any strong team that wants to achieve results must solve first.

There is no doubt that this is an all-encompassing issue for the players, the manager and even the club's hierarchy. However, considering the way the weak team upset and defeated the strong team, the vast majority of them were just one-goal wins, and the goalkeeper, as the last iron gate on the team's goal line, naturally became a very key part of the game.

And this is also the most important item that Eriksen wants to examine Li Lei in this game. Any other quality of the goalkeeper has been highly praised by Li Lei after he has watched most of the game videos. This is the only point that will be forgotten by everyone in the game, and even the live cameras will not pay attention to the point that he can't watch through the game video, so this time he will come to the scene to watch this double red meeting.

Because, in his opinion, a team like Liverpool is undoubtedly the most suitable team to test Li Lei's ability in this regard.

First of all, it is definitely weaker than the current Manchester United, and its main tactical play is also around Owen's rapid counterattack, so Li Lei will definitely have enough time to make him feel very free in the game, so that he has the basic and innate conditions for assessment.

Second, it's not so weak, it's strong enough, and there will never be a situation where Manchester United will play the whole game without the slightest ability to fight back. In particular, its ability to quickly counterattack with Owen as the arrow allows it to pose a threat to Li Lei in front of goal as long as Manchester United makes a mistake, and it is a big enough threat to have a big enough assessment difficulty.

Therefore, in terms of these two points, Liverpool is the most suitable opponent for Eriksen to evaluate Li Lei.

Now, let me see, what the hell are you going to do, right? Do you want to stick to the penalty area and stay as focused as possible, or do you want to be bold and have as much control as possible so that your attention is not distracted?

While everyone was attracted by Manchester United's attacking attack, Eriksen kept staring at the figure of Li Lei on the field, his eyes full of eager anticipation.

Although Li Lei on the field did not know such thoughts in Eriksen's mind at this time, this did not prevent him from responding to the Swedes' ardent expectations with timely actions on the field.

It's just that his way of coping with his active and restless nature is unexpected. Or more accurately, it was both expected and unexpected.

Li Lei's response was not beyond his expectations, and he took the initiative to get out of the penalty area to participate in the game as much as possible, and used this way to maintain his concentration on the game. But the specific method was unexpected.

Before, he thought that Li Lei's way was at most to expand the defensive range as Li Lei had shown in previous games, and then occasionally responded to the pass of his teammates with two feet and immediately retreated to the penalty area, but he never thought that Li Lei would stay outside the penalty area all the time, yes, all the time.

Here it comes!

In the 10th minute of the first half, when Li Lei finally walked out of the penalty area and took the initiative to shorten the distance between him and the back line, Eriksen's eyes suddenly lit up. Soon, though, he was dumbfounded.

At the same time, Li Lei was completely immersed in the fun of happily playing Owen with Brown, Sylvester and others on the court.

Although Liverpool played a defensive counterattack, it was not the kind of complete retreat and death, and the overall formation maintained a very good elasticity, once Manchester United could not continue to advance, when they had to pass the ball back, they would immediately follow the ball and immediately press it as a whole, forcing the Manchester United players with the ball to be very uncomfortable, and had to keep passing back.

This was the case just now, when Owen and Colwill collectively pressed in front of Brown and Silvestre, the two central defenders were so uncomfortable that they could only start to dribble in the direction of their own box.

And it was under such circumstances that Li Lei rushed out of the penalty area and suddenly appeared in front of Brown and Silvestre.

To be honest, when he was holding the ball and was forced by Irving behind him, Brown, who felt very uncomfortable because he was afraid of Irving's speed, heard Li Lei's shout and looked up to see him, the whole person was startled. Because, this is really far from the goal, although it is not the first time Brown has seen Li Lei rush out of the penalty area so far, but he is still not used to it, and he still subconsciously thinks that Li Lei should still stay in the penalty area at this moment.

Fortunately, although he was a little stunned, his body did not freeze because of this, and with a subconscious push under his feet, he kicked the football in the direction of Li Lei.

And the moment he passed the ball, Owen, who had just been sticking to him like a dogskin plaster behind him, immediately uncovered it himself, and chased after Li Lei with great momentum. In this way, the pressure he had just carried on his body immediately dissipated, but his face did not become good-looking, but immediately froze.

At this moment, his thoughts are the same as the thoughts of Owen, who just rushed towards Li Lei at the same speed as the hungry dog saw the meat buns, the goalkeeper took the ball so far away from the penalty area, and he was going to suffer!

His body immediately accelerated in the direction of Li Lei, and his instinct as a central defender drove him to get to the place where the problem was going to be as fast as possible.

It's just that the next scene made him stop uncontrollably.

In his field of vision, in the face of the menacing Owen, Li Lei was simply calm and calm, not like a goalkeeper, more like a midfielder, facing the incoming ball, stopping non-stop, directly blocking with his right foot, and handing the football to the feet of Gary Neville, who came back to the side.

And when Gary Neville faced Owen, who turned his head and rushed towards him, he handed the ball back to his own feet without stopping.

In this way, in the next few seconds, Li Lei, him and Gary Neville formed a triangle of passes, constantly sagating the ball with each other, and running like a monkey with Owen in the middle.

It can be said that until this time, Brown was confused, but his body was doing the technical movements of passing the ball autonomously and instinctively, and he didn't have time to think about anything in his mind.

It wasn't until Li Lei directly handed the football to O'Shea, who was far on the left, before Colwill also forced over, that he finally came back to his senses and remembered what he had just done - he was with the goalkeeper, so far away from the penalty area, with the passing ball so continuously playing the opponent's striker!

It was a new experience for Brown in his entire career, and a disruptive experience that defied all his previous conventions.

Looking up at the figure of Li Lei, who had run back to the penalty area at this time, Brown's eyes still had shock.

Deep!

Thoroughly!!
