Becoming famous at a young age at the age of 18 and becoming the world's most famous England golden boy is certainly a blessing for Owen. But at the same time, it also made him lack a necessary experience to go from ordinary to star.

In the face of difficulties and challenges, compared to other players, he has the aura of the Ballon d'Or is actually far more fragile than he imagined. For example, at this time, his performance in the face of Li Lei's deliberately rough confrontation is really hard to believe that he is a former European Ballon d'Or winner, the top star in European football.

Gerrard, who is friends with him in Liverpool's youth team, is undoubtedly much better at this point.

Although Gerrard can be regarded as a talented player who became famous at a young age, Gerrard has undoubtedly gained more experience than Owen's debut, which was a big hit. And his innate perseverance and spiritual quality also surpasses Owen.

Had it not been for that, Houllier would not have worn the Liverpool captain's armband on Gerrard's arm this season, rather than Liverpool's number one Owen, the darling of thousands of Liverpool fans.

This is also very well proven at this moment.

"What do you want to do Asian kid?! Stay away from Michael. ”

When Owen's momentum was completely suppressed by Li Lei and he couldn't do it at all, it was Gerald who rushed to the middle of the two at once, separating the two, like a leading big brother for the younger brother, protecting Owen behind him, and facing Li Lei without avoidance.

Looking at Gerard who was killed halfway in front of him, the corners of Li Lei's mouth immediately curved out of a disdainful arc, spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and then turned his head and left, without doing too much entanglement.

After the last meeting between the two teams, he was very impressed with Gerrard. He knows very well that compared to Owen, Gerrard is not the kind of player who can be simply bluffed by him. Therefore, it is useless to bother with words here, and overwhelming the opponent through the actual performance on the field is the only way to defeat the opponent, not some crooked off-the-board move.

Interesting!

Li Lei walked towards the player's tunnel, his eyes wandered, and the corners of his mouth were full of meaning. After scaring Owen out of the box, he showed little interest in the England golden boy and Steven Gerrard, Liverpool's captain, came into his sights.

However, just as Lee was pondering how to deal with Gerrard, Eriksen in the stands frowned at him. This time, he was not distressed by Li Lei's extraordinarily bold style, but because of Li Lei's bad boy personality and style that offended people at every turn.

After seeing Li Lei's action of pinching the back of Owen's neck just now, Eriksen's scruples about recruiting Li Lei into the England national team have increased again, this kid won't cause a conflict in the locker room, right?

Although he was sitting in the stands, he also smelled the hostile smell between Li Lei and Owen.

In Eriksen's mind at present, Li Lei, who is at most the third goalkeeper, is far less important than Owen, the absolute main striker of the England national team today. Therefore, if it is to recruit Li Lei, and cause Owen to be unhappy in the national team, bury discord in the dressing room of the England national team, and even further cause the hidden danger of the confrontation between the two major factions of Manchester United and Liverpool, this will definitely be a deal for Eriksen.

For this reason, he must also give more consideration and consideration to Li Lei's entry into the national team.

As for Erikson's inner troubles, Li Lei naturally didn't know. However, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. It is simply impossible for him to change his style and character for Eriksen and for the England national team.

If he enters the England national team and becomes a teammate in the same trench as Owen, it will naturally be two words, but at the club level, as long as Owen is not a Manchester United player for a day, Li Lei will definitely change his attitude towards him.

For any opponent, Li Lei's attitude is the same, that is, as cold as winter, without mercy. This was again demonstrated in the 47th minute of the second half.

After a 15-minute break at halftime, the first to attack after the start of the second half was the away game, and Liverpool was determined to win this victory.

But compared to the first half, this time their attack in the second half was obviously much less effective. After Ferguson deliberately set it up in the dressing room at half-time, no United player was as casual and ill-prepared as he was in the opening stages of the first half.

After the prepared defense of the Manchester United players, Liverpool's rush naturally did not let the Manchester United players be as busy and embarrassed as the first half. However, even this is not without results.

Although Manchester United is also a team with strong ball control ability in the Premier League, under the siege and crazy grabbing of Liverpool players at all costs, there will still be some small problems in the control of the ball, which will leave Liverpool with offensive opportunities.

In the 47th minute of the second half, it was probably like that. Under the frantic pressing of Liverpool's midfielders, Keane was forced to make a mistake, and after a moment's hesitation on the ball, he was stuck to Gerrard on the side. At the same time, Hamann next to him also gathered around at the right time and grabbed the ball at Keane's feet with Gerrard.

After winning the ball, Gerrard did not hesitate, and after looking up slightly to observe the front, he coordinated with Owen with a direct pass and diagonal pass, and once again directly hit the back of Manchester United's backline.

This would have been a successful combination, Owen and Gerald tacitly turned and accelerated forward, and with his instant acceleration and superhuman agility, he suddenly got rid of Brown, who was watching him.

Just near the big penalty area on the left side, when he was about to stretch out his foot to stop Gerrard's pass, at the same time as Gerrard's long pass, Li Lei, who immediately rushed out of the penalty area at full speed again, made the England golden boy experience the feeling of flying again.

A deliberately unrelenting big sliding shovel, after shoveling the football directly out of the sideline, also directly knocked Owen, who was as thin as a piece of paper rushing up at full speed, into the air.

At this moment, Owen, who made the next "snap" and fall directly to the ground again, curled up into a shrimp ball again, reliving the old dream of the first half that made him extremely painful.

Perhaps because the size gap between Li Lei and Owen is a little too large, this time the impact of the two is extraordinarily strong, and it unconsciously makes people feel a sense of pity for Owen who is curled up and lying on the ground, and the English golden boy is as pitiful as a discarded rag doll at this time.

"Wow!!"

If this happened at Anfield, Owen's experience at this time would definitely attract the hatred of the whole Liverpool fans at this time, but unfortunately, this is Old Trafford, and his Liverpool number one player will only face the mocking laughter and taunts of the United fans.

For Irving at this moment, the only thing that is still thankful is that fortunately, he still has teammates who will come to stand up for him.

"You fucking bastard! What do you want?! You have the ability to come at me!! ”

Gerrard, who had just sent a pass for Owen, rushed to the scene of the incident first, pointed at Li Lei's nose with an angry face and cursed angrily, not caring at all about the piercing boos of the Manchester United fans who had already sounded over the Old Trafford stadium!

For him, there was nothing to stop him from standing up for his team-mates as Liverpool's captain.

Such Gerrard is undoubtedly an opponent for Li Lei who is worth his energy and can make him excited.

Looking at Gerald's hideously angry face in front of him, his face flushed and his muscles exposed, the corners of his mouth unconsciously revealed his trademark disdainful sneer.

Rebellious!

Wanton!!
