Chapter 147 Sun Xingmin Never Gives Up

Tottenham captain and goalkeeper Lloris not only has excellent goal-line skills, but also has excellent attack speed and single-handed ball resolution. Tottenham fans in the audience still have some hope for him.

On the contrary, Tottenham coach Pochettino kept shaking his head. It is not known whether he has no confidence in Lloris or thinks that Li Qing's single-handed ball will not go in.

Lloris watched Li Qing's goal highlights before the game and knew that this man was very calm when shooting at a young age, especially when facing the goalkeeper one-on-one, he had many options.

Lob shot, dribbling through the empty goal, pushing the ball into the near corner, pushing the ball into the far corner, through the crotch...

Just when Lloris was daydreaming, Li Qing had already brought the ball to the top of the penalty area. Lloris knew that he could not wait any longer. He chose to abandon the goal and attack, while lowering his body center of gravity, ready to make saves anytime and anywhere.

As the captain, he knew that this ball was likely to determine the trend of the entire game.

Li Qing scored a single-handed goal, Liverpool led by two goals, laying the tone for victory. The single-handed save boosted the morale of the team, and it was no problem to equalize the score in one fell swoop.

The bravest will win when two meet on a narrow road!

Loris roared in his heart, like a shark smelling blood, staring at the ball at Li Qing's feet with his eyes, thinking: "This ball is mine!"

Li Qing was not panicked at all in the face of Loris's amazing momentum. He slowed down, did not look up at Loris, and directly adjusted his footsteps, took a step forward with his right foot, just standing in the top of the penalty area, and raised his left foot.

Loris stopped on the spot, his eyes changed from staring at the football to Li Qing's left foot.

He is an extremely experienced goalkeeper, and he can judge the direction and angle of the football by the striker's touch.

Li Qing's left foot arched towards the middle of the football. In a flash, Loris realized that Li Qing might score the ball from under his crotch.

He did not feel the humiliation of those players who were penetrated in the crotch. On the contrary, he concentrated and held his breath. Shooting through the crotch is one of the favorite shooting methods of technical players, and it is also the shot with the highest scoring rate.

Once the ball penetrates the crotch, it basically means a goal, which is the fundamental reason why so many top forwards choose to shoot through the crotch when the shooting angle is not large.

In a flash, Lloris subconsciously put his legs together.

But just as he finished the action, the football under Li Qing's feet did not kick over...

What the hell?

"Shoot--"

When Lloris looked at Li Qing again, the corners of his mouth twitched obviously, because... he was fooled by Li Qing.

Li Qing's shooting action just now was completely a fake move, and then he used the flexibility of his ankle to pull back his calf, and suddenly pushed the football to the left with the outside of his foot, accelerating!

"No! Fake shot and real dunk! Go past goalkeeper Lloris! Empty goal!"

"Awesome pass! Incredible!"

"Facing the empty goal! Li will help Liverpool expand the score!"

Lloris's attack speed was indeed very fast, but he had just put his legs together, and it was too late to step out and turn around...

So he could only watch Li Qing complete the breakthrough, and after getting a large enough shooting angle, he chose a very safe left foot arch push shot.

The football rolled quickly along the grass towards the unguarded goal, until it was tied up by the snow-white net and stopped its forward momentum...

"Goooooooooooooal——"

The iconic long voice of Andy Gray, the commentator of British Sky TV, sounded in the live studio of White Hart Lane Stadium.

"The ball is in! The ball is in!"

The commentator Zhan Jun, who was sitting not far away, was not in a good mood. He shouted ecstatically: "Li Qing used his extraordinary skills and speed to overcome all difficulties when Liverpool was in a relatively passive situation and expanded the score to two goals! Although the game has only started for more than half an hour, I believe... the gap of two goals is a gap that Tottenham cannot cross!"

Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai looked at the back of the boy on the broadcast screen and shouted hysterically: "Amazing Chinese boy! Li Qing used his double goal to help Liverpool lead Tottenham 2:0! This... is White Hart Lane Stadium!"

Liverpool coach Klopp excitedly rushed to the visiting team coach command area, raised his arms and shouted. Fans watching the game through the live broadcast on TV were all affected by this passionate coach and celebrated the goal with surging emotions.

Li Qing, who scored a goal, looked back at his teammates who were still far away. He smiled and walked slowly to the back of the goal, that is, the south stand, where the Liverpool fans who went with the team went.

"Leeeeeeeeeee——"

They watched Li Qing slowly approaching, and subconsciously made a huge cheer.

Li Qing had just run for at least 70 meters, and was exhausted. He stood in front of the fans' stand, opened his arms, closed his eyes and enjoyed the shouts from the fans.

Until Firmino threw him to the ground, Li Qing lay on the ground and let his teammates pile up on him one by one.

At this moment, the Tottenham stars at White Hart Lane were bleak. Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Eriksen, Lloris and other players all sighed helplessly. Facing Li Qing who was in such a good state, they didn't know whether they could make a comeback in the next game.

"I can definitely make it back!"

Sun Xingmin thought stubbornly.

Park Ke-ho, the commentator of SBS Sports TV in South Korea, saw that the broadcast screen was just giving Sun Xingmin, and said excitedly: "Sun Xingmin's fighting spirit is obviously much better than his Tottenham teammates. I believe he can help Tottenham Hotspur overtake the score and enter the new Wembley Stadium..."

The game resumed. Tottenham, who had the advantage of kicking off, had a significant decline in momentum, obviously affected by Li Qing's two goals. Only Sun Xingmin still maintained a high fighting spirit, but his personal efforts could not drive the whole team at all, and he looked more like a headless fly.

At the end of the first half, the scoreboard still showed a score of 0:2.

Tottenham players obviously haven't come out of the haze of falling behind by two goals, but it is a good result for them to enter the locker room safely, at least... they can make adjustments during the halftime break.

As long as the game is not over, Tottenham will have a chance to equalize the score or even overtake.

Overtaking is not just Liverpool's specialty. Tottenham also had a thrilling comeback.

The 15-minute halftime break passed quickly, and the players of both sides returned to the field one after another. The fighting spirit shown by the Tottenham players was obviously higher than the end of the first half, but Liverpool was well prepared in the second half. At the beginning, they used high-risk pressure, which they are good at, and did not give Tottenham players easy chances to get the ball.

After such a blow, the Tottenham players were like eggplants hit by frost.

However, it was in this situation that Tottenham unexpectedly scored a goal.

In the 53rd minute, Son Heung-min made a 45-degree cross with his right foot on the left, and Harry Kane, who was ambushing in the penalty area, got stuck in position, headed the ball, and the football quickly rushed to the far corner of the goal. Liverpool goalkeeper Mignolet was out of reach...
