Chapter 119: The Final Battle Arrives

"Oh! Gerrard! Michael!! Oh!!! ... Unbelievable! Owen missed a golden opportunity to equalise and unbelievably deflected the one-on-one shot wide. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Manchester United escaped! This is an unforgivable mistake! Lee was powerless in this defense, but Irving took the initiative to squander the opportunity. Oh! There was another clash on the field, what happened to Lee and Gerrard? ......" gushed the BBC commentator for the game.

Just when everyone's attention was drawn away by the clash between the two players on the field, Ferguson was mobilizing his troops and laying out the team's next tactical play. Liverpool's successive attacking waves over the past few minutes have made him a little uneasy, and he will need to strengthen his defence.

Before the game restarted, he used United's last substitution, replacing Ruud van Nistelrooy with Jemba, who was excellent at running and pressing.

In doing so, United will be completely on the defensive for the little time left in the game, leaving Ryan Giggs alone to act as a symbolic counter-arrow.

Ferguson's substitution, which consumed both game time and strengthened the defence, drew a chorus of scolding from Liverpool fans in the stands. But when the initiative is not in their own hands, they can only grit their teeth and watch the few Manchester United fans sing and dance at Anfield.

With the team already ahead and on the verge of victory, United fans will not complain or be unhappy with Ferguson's conservative substitutions. This kind of tactics and substitutions that make the enemy helpless will only make them more enjoyable, excited and wanton.

This mentality is not only between the fans on both sides in the stands, but also between the players on both sides of the field. Compared with the Liverpool players who are anxious to restart the game, eager to grab possession, and eager to attack, the Manchester United players seem to have lost their physical strength all of a sudden, and every action is slow, and they are all "tired" to lie on the pitch for a while.

In such a situation, it would be fine if the Liverpool players had lost their fighting spirit, but they were just now, and it was the moment when they were so excited that they wanted to move the score back in one go, so they were inevitably anxious and made big moves.

And yes, unless the equaliser is equalised, it will only get more and more urgent.

But in this way, it can only play into the hands of Manchester United's players. When the Manchester United players were all like boneless mollusks, and the Liverpool players were a little bigger, they were about to lie on the pitch for a while, and the boos over the Anfield stadium were still harsh, but full of helplessness.

This made Li Lei very interesting to watch, seeing that his teammates were acting superbly, he couldn't help but be a little eager to try.

In the 88th minute of the second half, he waited for such an opportunity. At this time, the Liverpool players have long been driven crazy by the incessant time-wasting behavior of Manchester United players. For a moment, they were like hungry mad dogs, desperately chasing the football, and launched a ferocious scramble against every Manchester United player with the ball.

But it was the end of the game, and their physical strength was simply not enough to support such high-intensity pressing. It is their limit to be able to grit their teeth and force Manchester United's ball-handlers, and they can only fantasize about effective pressing.

In such a situation, their movements have become bigger and more irrational.

Just like this time, when Brown was under the tight pressure of Colwill and others, because he couldn't find the forward exit point, and returned the football to Li Lei behind him, Owen immediately rushed towards Li Lei as if he had seen the enemy who killed his father.

In fact, at this time, he was too far away from Li Lei, and this irrational pursuit could only consume his few physical strengths, but could not play any role. But the resentment of Li Lei's previous actions, and the strong thunderous desire to atone for the previous missed opportunity, burned the last bit of sanity in Owen's brain.

On the other side, because of such a safe distance, Li Lei rarely did not immediately kick up, but used his right foot to flick the football to the right, wanting to dodge Owen who pounced on him head-on, and try a purposeful long pass. His previous unexpectedly long-form equaliser for Manchester United made him taste for it.

It's just that he didn't expect that such a safe move by him would attract Owen's irrational sliding shovel, and it also brought him an unexpected joy - an opportunity to perform acting.

"Lee! Be careful!! Seeing that Owen came at Li Lei with a desperate posture and a big sliding shovel that fell to the ground, Brown on the side was shocked and immediately reminded loudly.

In fact, there is no need for him to remind him, Li Lei has been paying part of his attention to Owen. When Owen chased after him desperately when he couldn't see the hope of stealing, he reminded himself in his heart. It would have been worth the loss to be dropped by Irving in the final stages of the game.

In addition to vigilance, Li Lei also had other ideas in his heart. Owen, who was already red-eyed, didn't notice the mocking smile on the corner of Li Lei's mouth when he fell to the ground and shoveled towards Li Lei fiercely.

In this way, a golden boy irrationally shoveled Manchester United's Asian goalkeeper, intending to avenge the previous humiliation, in front of the world's audience.

With his super reaction speed, Li Lei, who had already calculated in his heart, just touched the left foot of his footing with Owen's right foot, and the tense left calf muscles instantly exploded, making his body jump.

Although this still made Owen's foot hang on Li Lei's foothold, because he didn't kick it solidly, even if it was a little painful, it was definitely not as painful as Li Lei was on the court at the moment.

Seeing Li Lei fall on the court, holding his left leg and crying in pain, and rolling left and right from time to time, he came back to his senses at this time, and Owen, who looked confused, didn't know that he had been tricked. Others may not be able to see it, but how can he not feel that he is not playing solidly.

"Toot!"

When Webb's shrill whistle sounded, Owen reacted immediately. He slammed up from the ground, shaking his fingers and shouting "NONONO" at Weber, who was running over, while angrily rushing towards Li Lei, who fell to the ground in "pain".

"You goddamn liar! You get up for me!! Stop acting!! While angrily scolding Li Lei, he also tried to reach out and forcibly pull Li Lei up.

It's just that Li Lei will let him get his wish, my brother hasn't performed enough, he shook his hand vigorously and shook Owen's hand away, raised his head and frowned, and yelled at Owen with a painful and angry expression: "Get out!" ”

Owen, who was so angry that he lost his mind, naturally would not give up so well, but before he could make any further moves, Webb and Brown and others who rushed over completely separated him from Li Lei. Among them, Brown and the others surrounded Owen with an angry face. For a while, the scene was a mess, full of gunpowder, as if a physical conflict would break out at any time.

In this way, while Liverpool fans shouted "fake falls" and let out shrill boos, the little game time left passed quickly in this clash.

Perhaps because this is Liverpool's home stadium, Li Lei's superb performance just now did not allow Webb to show a yellow card to Owen. In this regard, he naturally behaved very "dissatisfied" and "aggrieved" like the Manchester United players.

However, he did not pursue it as much as Ferguson on the sidelines, because by this time he had enough to appease his dissatisfied heart.

At this time, Li Lei, who was acting in a full set, was sitting on the sidelines with a sad face and receiving "treatment" from the Manchester United team doctor, but he was proud and enjoying it in his heart.

"Shh!!h

The shrill and desperate boos of the Liverpool fans sounded to him like the most beautiful and beautiful chord in the world, and he was intoxicated and couldn't stop.

The only thing that makes Li Lei a little regretful is that at this moment, as a person who has just been shoveled and knocked to the ground, he can't celebrate wantonly, but fortunately, he can stir up the angry hearts of Liverpool fans again, so that the boos can continue, even louder.

What a pity. Li Lei sighed in his heart with a "sad face".

At this time, he was relaxed and happy, but unfortunately this time did not last long. Because, when he walked back to the field after receiving treatment, he saw the fourth official on the sidelines holding up a sign for stoppage time, which showed a big red "6".

It was obviously enough stoppage time to make United feel very unhappy, but protesting that was what Ferguson had to do on the sidelines. There is only one thing that Li Lei and the Manchester United players on the field have to do, and that is to grit their teeth and survive this final decisive time.

Although the situation has turned one-sided in favor of Manchester United, Li Lei firmly believes that the Liverpool team led by Steven Gerrard will not give up easily, and he has other plans in mind.

It's a shame not to give you a hard time before the game is over! Li Lei, who was about to kick off, glanced at Gerrard, who was also staring at this side, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes.

At this time, his eyes were half-squinted, his eyes were cold and fierce, just like a fierce beast about to launch a killing surprise attack on its prey, and the dark killing intent was surging.

At this moment, Li Lei thought of Gerrard's bravery when he bombarded the goal, the perseverance when the team fell behind, the responsibility of Owen when he was bullied by him, and the strength when he faced him......

That's a good opponent! The gaze in Li Lei's eyes became more and more cold, revealing a hideousness.

Li Lei's temperament is like an unruly lone wolf, when he encounters a difficult and respectable opponent, the first thing he thinks of is never sympathy, but how to defeat and knock down the opponent.

This is the temperament he cultivated when he was in the slums, where it has become his instinct to be born with a cruel world where the winner is king and there is no win-win situation.

Gradually, he looked at Gerald's gaze to the point of being hideous and terrifying, just like a fierce beast!

Ferocious!!

You want to choose people and love them!!
