Chapter 192: Fallen Into a Trap! Red Card!
"A world-class goal! An absolute world-class goal!"
Tianchao Channel 5 commentator Xu Yang was ecstatic: "This goal was beautifully played! The speed and power were excellent, and the angle was also very tricky, an absolute 10-point angle. Even top goalkeepers like De Gea, Oblak, and Ter Stegen could not stop Li Qing's powerful world-class goal! Venezuelan U20 goalkeeper Farine deserved the loss!"
Sky TV commentator Andy Gray changed the subject after his signature long voice: "Venezuela U20, which has the best defense in this World Youth Championship, is behind in the score. If they want to compete for the World Youth Championship title, they must We must strengthen our offense, so that... England U20 has a great chance to expand the score!"
The broadcast screen just gave Li Qing who scored the goal. He was seen confidently clapping and hugging his teammates to celebrate. The commentator Martin Taylor smiled and said: "As long as Li's team scores first, the opponent will not be far from losing..."
The fanatical atmosphere in the Suwon World Cup Arena did not subside for a long time. Venezuela U20, which was behind in the score, did not use the advantage of restarting the game as most commentators imagined to increase the offensive, but still followed the game strategy before losing the ball to ensure its own defense first, and then consider attacking.
England U20 head coach Simpson looked at the Venezuelan U20 players who always maintained a defensive posture, and couldn't help turning his head to look at Venezuelan U20 coach Sieskinasi not far away, and he was very confused.
However, he quickly figured it out. It was still early in the game. Increasing the offensive too early might not result in a goal, and it was even very likely to lose the ball.
Li Qing's ability to counterattack with the ball can be said to be the best in the world. At that time, it will be Li Qing's world.
Compared with falling behind by two goals, falling behind by one goal still gives people hope of equalizing the score and playing overtime. Falling behind by two goals basically means that the championship will be handed over.
England U20 is leading in the score, and there is no intention to strengthen the attack. Anyway, if the score is leading, a one-goal lead at the end of the game is a victory, and a lead of 100 goals is also a victory, without any bonus.
Rather than taking the risk of expanding the score, it is better to temporarily stabilize the current score and wait for the opponent to make another mistake.
So, this game gradually became a competition of error rates between the two sides.
As time went on, Li Qing played more annoyingly. Venezuelan U20 players are typical South American players, with excellent physical fitness and many small movements, especially those endless small movements, which made him always want to get angry.
In the 41st minute of the game, Lucena, who was defending, kicked his calf from time to time, and used his knee to hit his thigh as if nothing had happened, and even used verbal provocation when close to him.
Li Qing couldn't help it, so he exchanged 1 gold coin for 10 minutes of Spanish language, turned around and said in standard Spanish: "You are a waste, you can only use tricks when you can't win the game, you will always be a waste, you want to achieve my achievements? Dream on!"
"Look at what you have done since the beginning of the game? This is a football game, not a clown game! If this is a clown game, you can definitely get the first place without any dispute! What are you looking at? I'm talking about you! Waste! Are you angry? What did you do just now? Do you really think that if a tiger doesn't show its power, I will think that I am a sick cat? Every second you live in the world is a waste of air! Understand?"
Lucena didn't expect Li Qing to suddenly explode with words, and he spoke wittily in his mother tongue. By the time he reacted, Li Qing had turned around and left in a very chic manner. As a defensive warrior, he has a bit of a temper, although his reaction arc is a bit long.
Lucena suddenly pushed Li Qing angrily from behind. Many fans in the audience came to the Suwon World Cup Arena just to see Li Qing, so they paid attention to Li Qing when the game was stalemate. So when Lucena lost control of his emotions and pushed Li Qing, they saw it. They stood up excitedly and burst into a huge cry: "wowowowo——"
Li Qing didn't expect Lucena to push him from behind. He leaned forward without any preparation and staggered. At the same time, his eyes flashed and he fell to the ground, even adding a little painful drama.
The referee Kuipers noticed someone falling in the off-ball confrontation. He raised his eyebrows and looked at the assistant referee. He held the flag high in his right hand and kept shaking it, which means... there was a foul!
So, Kuipers blew the whistle in his mouth. Ejaria, who was about to pass the ball, was stunned for a moment and looked at the referee Kuipers in confusion.
However, Arnold, who saw the whole incident, rushed up immediately and tried to make trouble for Lucena who pushed Li Qing for no reason. The Venezuelan U20 youth team players did not just watch. They saw Arnold was aggressive and surrounded Lucena behind him.
The assistant referee also entered the court and pushed the excited England U20 youth team players away to prevent the situation from escalating.
The referee Kuipers blew the whistle while running and soon ran to the scene of the incident. Arnold still wanted to bypass the Venezuelan U20 players to make trouble for Lucena.
England U20 head coach Simpson was very angry when he saw Li Qing fall to the ground without the ball. Venezuelan U20 head coach Eskinahi frowned, as he had just witnessed the whole process with his own eyes.
A foul without the ball is a red card!
The calm England U20 players held back the excited Arnold, and the referee Kuipers walked towards the assistant referee to ask what happened just now. After all, as the referee, his attention was on the ball.
At the same time, the on-site director gave a slow-motion replay of the previous scene.
He Wei, the commentator of Tianchao Channel 5, said in a deep voice: "Li Qing was very dissatisfied with Lucena's continuous small movements. He said a lot of things. As for what they were, we don't know, but Lucena's pushing Li Qing without the ball was definitely wrong. According to the relevant FIFA regulations, this is an undisputed red card foul."
Li Qing, who was fouled, stood up with an innocent look on his face, and helped to appease the emotions of his club friend Arnold, but his eyes were looking at Lucena, and he even blinked mischievously.
Suddenly, Lucena realized that he had been tricked!
The referee Kuipers was affirmed by the assistant referee. He walked to Lucena without hesitation and took out a red card from his trouser pocket.
"Red card!"
Commentary guest Xu Yang said in high spirits: "Venezuela U20's main defensive midfielder Lucena took the initiative to foul Li Qing while running without the ball. The red card is undisputed! There is no doubt that this is a double whammy for Venezuela U20, which is behind in the score!"
Lucena, who was sent off, sighed and could only say that he was too young...
