Chapter 245 The only Disadvantage of Expensive Things Is that They Are Expensive
"Goooooooooooooooal——"
The hysterical and elongated voice of Sky TV commentator Andy Gray.
Commentator Martin Taylor said loudly: "Li is really full of confidence! Sadip Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah are closer to the goal than him! But that's why we can see a perfect Li! His breakthrough, pass and shot are just right, and there is no unreasonableness at all."
Liverpool coach Klopp thought Li Qing would pass the ball because from his perspective, Mane, Firmino and Salah have better shooting angles and shooting distances.
Of course, if the ball didn't go in, it would be another story. The problem is that Li Qing scored the ball.
So the goal can cover everything.
Ignore teammates?
No!
Shooters should be selfish and show themselves in the right position!
Mane, Firmino and Salah have some complaints in their hearts, but it is enough for Li Qing to score the ball.
In their cognition, Li Qing is a confident teenager!
The team leads Atletico Madrid away from home. Based on their understanding of Li Qing, as long as they run to the right position, Li Qing will serve delicious cakes.
The Liverpool fans who came to the Calderon Stadium with the team were excited, and they cheered for Li Qing who contributed to the wonderful goal.
The on-site director gave a slow-motion replay, starting from Li Qing's physical contact with the black and hard Thomas, until the ball was scored.
Kung Fu 5 commentator He Weixin said excitedly: "Is Li Qing really a 16-year-old boy? Thomas, who is as strong as an ox, didn't even knock him down! It's incredible! The next handling of the ball was very smart, and his explosive power and technical characteristics were perfectly reflected! The last long-range shot showed the fans in front of the TV his comprehensive shooting skills..."
Li Qing, who scored the goal, was not too excited. He appeared on the broadcast screen with his shoulders shrugged and an innocent look on his face, as if scoring a goal was not the result he wanted to see.
Then, the broadcast screen gave Atletico Madrid stars such as Griezmann, Koke, Saul, Godin, and Oblak, and they all showed deep helplessness on their faces.
However, the star player Griezmann quickly recovered from his disappointment and was full of fighting spirit, thinking about helping the team equalize the score and then overtake in the restarted game!
The media reports before the game had already made him very unhappy. If Li Qing was allowed to show off at the Calderon Stadium, then... would the reports after the game still be worth watching?
Thinking of this, Griezmann's fighting spirit became more and more vigorous.
The game resumed, and Atletico, which was behind in the score, had some changes in its offensive methods, from the original defense-based to active offense.
In fact, Atletico's offensive ability is still very good. Carrasco has strong breakthrough ability, Koke has high attainments in dispatching and passing, Saul has strong ability to join the attack, Griezmann has very comprehensive skills, and his finishing ability is also very good. Correa's ability to have the ball is incredible.
In addition, Felipe and Juanfran's assists on the two sides are often eye-catching, but as the two get older, their ability to run back and forth has greatly decreased.
Despite this, Atletico's overall offensive ability is quite good, but compared to its almost abnormal defensive ability, its offense is slightly weaker by half a point.
Perhaps because of the long-term defense, although Griezmann finally completed Atletico's attack, Griezmann, who was under the defensive pressure of Van Dijk, was not well prepared and shot over the crossbar.
Atletico, who was at home, fell behind in the score, and their tactical style of play changed greatly. Instead of returning to their own half in a row, they counter-grabbed on the spot, giving Liverpool's ball-holding players full pressure.
When the ball was taken out, the best passing opportunity was lost.
Time passed by second by second, and soon it was thirty minutes. The scoreboard showed that the score was still 0:1. Liverpool led the home team Atletico as a guest. The Atletico offensive line led by Griezmann worked very hard, but Van Dijk had a high defensive rate. The defensive problems that Liverpool was prone to expose were greatly improved by Van Dijk's efforts.
Klopp, standing in the visiting coach's command area, looked at and nodded frequently. The only disadvantage of expensive things is that they are expensive!
Li Qing played healthier in the remaining time of the first half, and did not deliberately compete with Atletico players. In his opinion, Atletico players are in good physical condition and consciousness, and there is no benefit in forcing confrontation.
Rather than doing something thankless, it is better to wait for a big opportunity.
This wait did not find an opportunity until the end of the first half, and the score on the scoreboard did not change.
The Atletico players who appeared on the broadcast screen looked a little unhappy, obviously dissatisfied with their performance in the first half.
The fifteen-minute halftime break passed quickly, and the players from both sides returned to the court one after another.
Before the change of sides, neither side made any adjustments.
"aoaooaooaoooo——"
The fanatical atmosphere of the Calderon Stadium ignited, and the huge shouts like a tsunami quickly swept the entire stadium.
Amid the shouts of the home fans, Atletico players launched a very threatening attack.
Koke came to the left side of the attack and suddenly made a long pass to the right. Juanfran, who rarely participated in the attack in the first half, advanced to a very deep position. Klopp raised his eyebrows. Juanfran received the ball and completed a 45-degree cross from the right before Robertson arrived.
The ball bypassed Van Dijk who performed well at the front point. Joe Gomez in the middle did not hit the ball when he jumped up, and the ball slipped past. Griezmann, who did not have much outstanding performance in the first half, appeared like a ghost in the position where he should appear.
He met the ball with his left foot while running and kicked it to the near corner of the goal.
Goalkeeper Karius opened his arms and did not touch the ball, which means... Atletico scored a goal at the beginning of the second half!
The scoreboard showed 0:1 quickly turned into 1:1, and the sky above the Calderon Stadium was filled with the joyful shouts of Atletico fans.
Liverpool coach Klopp was a little helpless. Atletico's attack in the second half was very targeted. Juanfran deliberately bypassed Van Dijk at the front point with his pass, and took advantage of the slow rhythm of the young central defender Joe Gomez to enter the game and grabbed a start.
Griezmann, who helped the home team equalize the score, was very excited. His iconic double-handed phone celebration was shown again at the Calderon Stadium.
Then, the broadcast screen was given to Li Qing, and the meaning that the on-site director wanted to express was very obvious.
Griezmann equalized the score. As Liverpool's top scorer, should Li Qing make some response?
Li Qing, who still held the [Superstar Moment] in his hand, was not panicked at all, and did not pay attention to Griezmann's unique celebration. In his opinion, he would be the only one who won in the end.
