Chapter 226: Death Group

Li Qing scored his second goal of the game. Liverpool fans at Anfield could not help themselves, and the huge cheers like a tsunami swept the entire stadium.

"aoaoaooaoaoooooo——"

Liverpool coach Klopp was very excited in the fanatical atmosphere, but he quickly recovered from the excitement and turned to his assistant Buvac: "Zeljko, call Daniel over."

"Who to change? Li?"

Bovach asked.

Klopp nodded slightly: "A four-goal lead can completely ensure that the team will win the game. The end of this round of the league is the international match day. I hope to give Li more time to rest."

Bovać looked up at the match time shown on the scoreboard: 79'26"

That is to say, there are only ten minutes left in the whole game, and at most thirteen minutes with injury time. If Arsenal still pulls back the four-goal lead, it would be better to go to Kung Fu Country to buy a piece of land to grow sweet potatoes!

Liverpool's last substitution adjustment was used on Li Qing, who was replaced by Sturridge, who had been out of the game for a long time.

Klopp replaced Li Qing with Sturridge for two reasons. The first was to hope that Li Qing would get enough rest time and get applause from the fans. The second was to see Sturridge's condition. If it really didn't work, he would be loaned out to avoid wasting his youth in the team.

Although Liverpool has European war tasks this season, next year is the World Cup year. As England's former starting center forward, Sturridge I hope to participate in more games and get back into Southgate's eyes, but now the team has more forwards and signed Solanke from Chelsea. Firmino must be the starting center forward of the team, which means Sturridge can only be the third choice.

If Sturridge's condition is really not good, then we can only consider renting him out, so that Solanke can still be the center forward.

"Leeeeeeeeeee——"

Li Qing slowly walked to the sidelines, and the hysterical roar of Liverpool fans rang out over Anfield. Liverpool fans showed their love for Li Qing in this way.

In the KOP stand, fanatical Liverpool fans held up a huge poster of Li Qing. There were nine letters on the top of the poster, which combined to read: Our-prince!

Our prince!

Li Qing raised his hands and looked around with applause, thanking the fans for their support.

Klopp took the initiative to greet Li Qing who was leaving the field and gave him a big hug: "Li, you performed well!"

"No, no, it's all because of your wise leadership, boss! "

Li Qing said with a smile.

"This kid..."

Sitting on the bench, Li Qing watched the game still going on. He didn't know why, but he always felt that the team played a bit badly and seemed to be likely to lose the ball.

It was not known whether Li Qing's premonition came true, Liverpool lost a goal in the 85th minute.

Ozil's 45-degree roundabout pass from the right was very accurate, Giroud jumped high and overpowered Lovren to head the ball into the goal.

Klopp was very angry about the team's loss of the ball. Standing on the sidelines, he angrily swung his arms to express his dissatisfaction.

Lovren, who was absolutely responsible for the loss, lowered his head depressed, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Whether it was Lovren or Klopp, Wan, partnering with Matip is not enough to ensure the safety of the defense. If they want to go further in the Champions League this season, they must pair Matip with a high-quality central defender in the central defender position.

Before the end of the game, Lovren made another mistake. His clearance was not kicked firmly and was caught by Welbeck in the penalty area. The latter stopped the ball and shot in one go, breaking through Karius's ten fingers...

Arsenal chased the score to 4:2!

Klopp has nothing to say about this mistake.

Ability, it's all about ability. It seems... Van Dijk must be dealt with before the summer transfer window closes!

Lovren and Klavan can only be a substitute because their ability is not even as good as that of young player Joe Go Max.

Losing two goals in a row at the end of the game made Liverpool fans, who should have been in high spirits, a little depressed. Compared with the four-goal victory, the 4:2 win seemed to be less than perfect.

After attending the regular press conference after the game, Klopp immediately found the club's CEO Peter Moore. The first thing he did was to inform the club that Coutinho could be sold at the right price, and the second was to buy Southampton captain Van Dijk as soon as possible.

Liverpool players who finished the league announced that they would get a short league break, but this was for those who did not have national team competition tasks. For example, Li Qing had to prepare for the two World Cup qualifiers on September 2 and September 5.

It is worth mentioning that Before the international match day, the 2017-2018 UEFA Champions League group draw and award ceremony was held at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco.

Liverpool, which returned to the Champions League, had not participated in the Champions League for two consecutive seasons, and its points dropped significantly, but as the champion of the 2016-2017 Premier League, it became a first-tier team.

Before the group draw ceremony began, the best player awards were given in various positions.

Real Madrid, which won the Champions League, was the big winner. The best goalkeeper was Buffon, the best defender was Ramos, the best midfielder was Modric, the best forward was C Ronaldo, and the best player was finally C Ronaldo. The best female football player was the Dutch player Martens.

Sitting in front of the TV and watching the live broadcast, Li Qing was very envious, but he quickly buried this envy in his heart and wanted to vent it in the next 2017-2018 Champions League!

As long as Liverpool can win the Champions League, can the Champions League best player escape?

As the champion of the 2017-2018 Champions League, Liverpool was drawn to Group C, with Atletico Madrid, Roma and Qarabag in the same group, which means... Liverpool was drawn to the group of death.

Kung Fu 5 Channel commentator He Wei said regretfully: "It is unfortunate for Liverpool to return to the Champions League. They were drawn to the group of death, but we must believe in the young Chinese player Li Qing who has emerged. He will definitely lead Liverpool to beat Atletico Madrid and Roma to qualify in the group with his outstanding performance in the new season!"

Liverpool coach Klopp, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone, and Roma coach Francesco who watched the live broadcast were very depressed. There are so many groups to draw, why must they be drawn to Group C?

Real Madrid coach Zidane, Tottenham coach Pochettino and Dortmund coach Bosz were also depressed because the teams they coached were drawn into Group H by UEFA, which means... Group H became the second death group in the 2017-2018 Champions League group stage.

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray looked at the eight groups listed on the broadcast screen and said depressedly: "I feel that the Premier League teams are being targeted by UEFA again..."
