Chapter 242

"It's Lee's long biography again! Cristiano, cross! Ruud van Nistelrooy heads the goal! Oh, Van der Sar! The Dutchman was simply indestructible today, leaving the entire United attacking line helpless to take him in. On the goal line, incredible reaction speed! Incredible Magical Save!! It's unbelievable that he is already a 34-year-old veteran. If it weren't for him, Fulham would have been beaten by Manchester United long ago. ”

However, compared to others, Lee, who guards the gates of Manchester United, is clearly also eye-catching. Although he didn't have much chance to show his saving prowess throughout the game, except for Levinsky's kick in the opening stages, we were impressed with a couple of rather bold handling of the ball at the start of the second half. It's no wonder that people say Lee has the shadow of 'madman' Ikita, and that was true in those few strokes, and we have rarely seen such a bold goalkeeper in a real game. ......" said a neutral commentator after Ruud van Nistelrooy's shot was incredibly blocked by Van der Sar on the line.

From this commentator's commentary, it is easy to draw a conclusion that the most dazzling person in this game so far in both teams is none other than their respective goalkeepers.

To get to this point, Van der Sar relied on his saves, while Li Lei relied on his new and bold goalkeeping play. Although Li Lei's goalkeeper kick time is not as long as Van der Sar, who began to make various divine saves from the beginning, it is novel and exciting enough to be bold and innovative, so the impression left on the audience is not weaker than Van der Sar's various divine saves in this game, and there are even faint signs of being higher.

After all, Van der Sar's divine save is wonderful, but it is not uncommon in world football, almost every year you can find a basket, like Li Lei's goalkeeper style of play is different, since Ikita, how can the world have seen a goalkeeper in the top official field, himself as a gun to kill the ball out of the penalty area, launch a team attack such a crazy picture.

The principle that scarcity is expensive also works on the football field.

In short, no matter what, no matter what, from the current point of view, this game is destined to be a direct contest between the two goalkeepers Li Lei and Van der Sar. Although the two are far away on the pitch, it is almost impossible to have the opportunity to meet face to face, and the way of comparison is also very strange for the goalkeeper to attack and defend with one person, but this is the actual situation.

And, just as people like to have more strikers than defenders, what people prefer to see at this time is not Van der Sar's save, but Li Lei's bold moves that they have never seen in any other goalkeeper before.

Maybe in terms of winning or losing, the current Li Lei has not beaten Van der Sar, but at least in terms of attention, he has already won. But, obviously, what he wants is not just this, but a real, complete victory.

If he wants to do this, Li Lei will naturally not stay in front of the door honestly like he did before he played the goalkeeper kick. After the restart, Li Lei, who had not been stopped and scolded by Alex Ferguson, and whose confidence had skyrocketed because of his previous successful and daring attempts, began to show his goalkeeping style on the pitch even more boldly, causing deafening cheers from the United fans in the stands.

In the 65th minute of the second half, Li Lei quietly came to the center circle arc again. At this point, Fulham's two strikers, McBride and Boamott, were once again pressing on Brown and Silvestre. It was a slightly difficult situation for Brown and Sylvester, but the sudden appearance of Li Lei did them a big favor once again.

After a long period of hard training in passing, this kind of close-range short pass is no longer a problem for Li Lei. Coupled with his own excellent psychological quality, as long as he does not panic when facing the pressure and can deal with it calmly, there is basically no major problem, and the final situation is indeed the case.

Li Lei boldly came to the center circle arc, and after greeting Brown and Sylvester, the three of them immediately began to play a simple and smooth small-range short pass cooperation in the face of the two people's pressing.

As the Fulham defence did not dare to press too hard at this time, McBride and Boamott were now basically alone in front of the Manchester United backline. So, with just a few simple strokes, they easily defused the aggressive pressing of McBride and Boamott.

Among them, Li Lei's last kick that completely made McBride stop chasing in despair - in the face of McBride's ferocious grab, he calmly and comfortably toe against the football, and picked up the final pass to Sylvester, which won the warm applause of all Manchester United fans at the scene, as well as loud cheers and whistles.

They couldn't help but get excited, and while it's not unusual for this dashing pass to be at the feet of strikers and midfielders, it's all too rare for a goalkeeper or even a centre-back to perform.

Our goalkeepers dare to play with your strikers with their footwork, you scumbags, tsk.

Just thinking about it makes Manchester United fans feel thrilled and proud.

And the lively atmosphere of Manchester United fans at the scene in turn stimulated Li Lei, who was already excited, so that he couldn't help but make one scene after another in the next game, leaving everyone speechless and crazy.

In the 68th minute of the second half, it was McBride and others who stayed in the front court to counter-rob Manchester United's ball-handler on the spot after Keane was cut off in the counterattack, delaying the pace of Manchester United's counterattack. After Keane couldn't pass the ball forward and handed the football club to Brown behind him, Li Lei in front of the goal quickly moved out and approached Brown and Silvestre, and a small cluster was formed between the three again.

When Brown and Sylvestre were entangled by McBride and Boamotte respectively, Li Lei once again decisively reached out to Brown with the ball at his feet to ask for the ball, and at the same time ran diagonally forward quickly out of the penalty area with a line that was easy for Brown to pass. After receiving Brown's pass, he once again drove the ball 20 metres to the excited cheers of the Manchester United fans, before sending a long ball to Fulham midfielder Jetu, who had started fast.

Although United did not score this time, in the end, Scholes's powerful long-range shot from the edge of the box after receiving a cross from Ryan Giggs tested Van der Sar again, and shocked the whole Fulham team into a cold sweat.

There is no doubt that Li Lei's bold move has once again launched an effective threat offensive for Manchester United.

Since then, Li Lei, who has been completely excited, has been even more excited and out of control.

In the 72nd minute of the second half, when Brown made a mistake in stopping the ball near the arc of the center circle and was about to be tackled by McBride, it was Li Lei who directly shoveled the football to Sylvester on the side with a standard sliding tackle, defusing a possible counterattack by Fulham.

In the 75th minute of the second half, when Manchester United tried to pull the Fulham defense in a series of large crosses and looked for offensive gaps, Li Lei stayed near the center circle arc for nearly five minutes and participated in 10 passes.

This scene once again shocked Lineker and other commentators, they had never seen such a goalkeeper who didn't like "home" and liked to leave his post without permission.

However, just when Li Lei won the entire Old Trafford stadium because of this behavior, Li Lei himself slowly broke away from the state of excitement just now.

He knew very well that he loved the cheers, but victory was his favorite. There are only cheers, and there are no victories, which is not what he likes.

After completing another long pass outside the penalty area and returning to the front of the goal, Li Lei, who returned to the front of the goal, looked at the gate guarded by Van der Sar, who still seemed impregnable and far away from him.

The excitement and excitement in his eyes just now began to slowly fade, and only silence remained.

Like a vast sea without waves.

Deep and introverted!

The dark tide is turbulent again!!
