Chapter 25 No-Brained Point Addition

Liverpool U18 Youth Team is currently ranked third in the North Division, only behind Manchester City U18 and Manchester United U18. Since the Manchester derby at Carrington ended in a 2:2 draw, Liverpool U18 has the opportunity to overtake Manchester United Youth Team and rank second in the league.

But the opportunity is in front of us, and whether Liverpool U18 can grasp it depends on the performance of Liverpool U18.

Glenn Macaulay is the top scorer of Liverpool U18. He has been closely guarded by Middlesbrough Youth Team players since the start of the game, and has few shooting opportunities, which has caused Liverpool U18's attack to be loud but not effective.

The first half ended at 45 minutes, and the score ended at 0:0.

Li Qing, who was sitting with Brewster, was eager to try, waiting for the call from head coach Neil Critchley, but two consecutive substitutions had nothing to do with him.

Depressed!

In a blink of an eye, the game reached the 70th minute of the game, and the score was still 0:0. If the game ended with the current score, the top three positions would not change, and they might even be caught up by the fourth-placed Blackburn U18.

It was not until the 75th minute that Li Qing heard the heavenly voice of head coach Neil Critchley: "Li, go warm up and come back in ten minutes."

Ten minutes later is 85 minutes, so... is it too late?

Although he thought so in his heart, his body reacted very quickly, and he quickly took off his heavy down jacket and ran towards the warm-up area.

Five minutes of regular time can be said to be very short, but if injury time is included, it will be at least eight minutes.

Eight minutes is enough to score a goal.

In other words, five minutes of regular time is enough for him to score a goal.

He is already strong enough to play in the Premier League, so playing in the National Youth Super League should be a piece of cake, right?

At the same time, Adekanye gazed at Li Qing who was warming up with envy. He suddenly felt that this winter seemed to be colder. He shivered so cold that he couldn't help but wrap the down jacket tighter.

In the 86th minute, Brewster's shot missed the goal post. The referee blew the whistle and signaled a substitution.

Li Qing, wearing the No. 28 jersey, replaced the No. 9 Glenn Macaulay.

Although Glenn Macaulay was reluctant, he still had to follow the coach's arrangement, but he did not complete the normal exchange ceremony with Li Qing - high-five.

Adekanye and Glenn Macaulay were obviously in the same group. Li Qing had guessed that there would be such a result, so he did not have any emotional fluctuations, and even became excited because of the system prompt sound.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the task of [Replacing Bobby Adekanye as the starting winger and participating in the National Youth Super League], and obtaining 5 points of ability and 10 gold coins."

But head coach Neil Critchley raised his eyebrows, thinking that Glenn McCauley had no gentlemanly spirit.

However, his attention was soon attracted by Li Qing, who came on as a substitute. There were only four minutes left in the regular game time. Whether he could break the deadlock and kill the opponent depended on Li Qing, who was obviously more capable than his own players.

English players are generally strong. Although Li Qing is now 57 kilograms, he is a little thinner than most Middlesbrough players. The nervous mood of Middlesbrough U18 head coach Liddell gradually calmed down.

Liverpool, who is at home, must have strengthened their offense in the last period of time, but the last substitution was not a center forward, which means that they will continue to pass and control to find opportunities in the last few minutes?

If this is true, then... I will accept the point with a smile.

This match was Li Qing's first U18 match, and he cherished it very much. After receiving the 5-point ability value reward, he added all of them to the data [Strong] without thinking, so that it reached the passing line of 60.

His seemingly thin body contains a lot of strength!

The football was passed by many feet, and it came to the feet of Li Qing who was attacking on the right side.

As soon as he stopped the ball, two Middlesbrough U18 defenders appeared in front of him, and there were also defenders in the ribs, looking at him covetously. It was a bit difficult to successfully complete the breakthrough.

Then again, everything depends on human effort!

As a man who wants to challenge the world's number one throne in the green field, how can he fail in the U18 match?

Li Qing raised his right index finger and stretched it forward, indicating that the right back Johnstone should run forward.

It turned out that the attention of the defenders near the outside line was instantly attracted by Johnstone who was running forward along the sideline. At this moment, Li Qing, who was controlling the ball with the outside of his left foot, suddenly pushed the ball forward.

Accelerate!

The defensive player standing on the ribs subconsciously stretched out his foot to poke, but Li Qing's foot speed was very fast, and he quickly dribbled the ball forward with the inside of his left foot, forming an accelerated breakthrough.

Brewster approached tacitly, and Li Qing, who had the talent [Seeing Everything], had his eyes lit up!

This...may make a complicated situation simple!

He passed the ball horizontally to the left with the arch of his right foot before the backup player rushed to grab it, then went around to the outside of the backup player and ran quickly towards the baseline.

Brewster passed the ball directly without stopping, and the ball rolled along the grass from the right rib of the attack 30 meters away from the goal in a straight line to the right rib of the penalty area.

The Middlesbrough central defender who was dragged at the back saw Li Qing chasing the ball, and subconsciously raised his right arm to remind the linesman that he was offside, but the linesman followed Li Qing to run to the baseline, which means...not offside!

"Damn it!"

Middlesbrough U18 head coach Liddell suddenly stood up from his seat and roared angrily.

In a flash, the originally airtight defense of the Middlesbrough U18 youth team was torn open.

Li Qing, who was running, stopped the ball with the outside of his left foot ten meters away from the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area. Without waiting for the defensive players to block and the goalkeeper to attack, he raised his foot and shot directly.

Middlesbrough U18 goalkeeper Brin had just taken a step to abandon the goal and watched the ball rolling quickly towards the far corner along the grass. He had to fall to the ground sideways, but the previous rolling speed of the ball was obviously faster than his body falling to the ground...

Neil Critchley saw the ball fall into the far goal, and his excitement was beyond words, and he raised his arms and shouted.

In the 87th minute, the first record was opened!
