Chapter 303: Dramatic Change

The football hit the left goal post and bounced back. Firmino, who was at the front, was a little slow to react by half a beat. By the time he faced the ball again, he had lost the best opportunity. The football was kicked by center defender Koscielny who reacted promptly. Get out of line.

Corner kick!

Li Qing, who just missed the ball, pulled his hair with both hands and showed an awkward yet elegant smile.

For him, it's not a huge pity that he didn't score, but he was just a little depressed.

"Just a little bit different!"

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei said regretfully: "Otherwise, we could have scored the Arsenal goal in the first minute of the game! Setting the tone for victory!"

"Although Li Qing's shot did not score a goal, it can be seen that Li Qing's condition in this game is very good!"

Guest commentator Xu Yang changed the subject and said with a smile: "The game has just begun, we can't be in a hurry. I believe that as the game progresses, Li Qing's condition will get better and better. Don't forget... Li Qing is never good at playing against strong teams." Lack of goals.”

"What Xu Yang said is very correct." He Wei said ecstatically: "If I remember correctly, the minimum cost of Li Qing's first six stadiums was two goals, so there will definitely be goals in this focus game. And it’s a wonderful goal!”

Arnold saw the attack on the left corner kick, and the football was grabbed by Van Dijk. However, due to too much power, the header did not find the right spot and the football went over the crossbar.

Arsenal's offense slowly advanced and penetrated under the organization of Prince Wilshere and Xhaka. Wenger's ground passing and controlling style gradually put pressure on Liverpool's defense.

Li Qing does not need to defend as always, Firmino, Mane and Salah complete the midfield defense on his behalf.

It is precisely for this reason that Arsenal does not dare to attack too aggressively and only adopts a gradual approach to advance the attack carefully.

"aoaoaoaooooooo——"

The home fans were in high spirits and the outburst was huge, giving great impetus to the Arsenal players who organized the attack.

In this fanatical background, Arsenal star Sanchez broke out. He suddenly cut inside on the left side to dodge Wijnaldum and Henderson. Before Matip could step forward to block the shot, he directly hit the target in the penalty area. Pick up your right foot from the left side of the arc and shoot into the far corner.

The football drew a wonderful arc in mid-air and flew towards the upper right corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Mignolet was like a spring that was squeezed to the extreme, swooping out. Unfortunately, Sanchez's right foot shot inside the instep at a tricky angle, and his left hand, which was stretched to the extreme, did not touch the football.

The next moment, a huge cry of regret sounded over the Emirates Stadium: "wowwowowoooooo——"

The football passed around Mignolet's outstretched left fingertips, brushed the outer edge of the right post of the goal, went out of the baseline, and hit the outside of the side net.

"Oh-My-God!"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray exclaimed: "Alexis Sanchez's long shot can be compared with Lee's long shot in the opening game! What a pity! If the arc could be wider, this ball would definitely have a chance." !”

"Sanchez is in great condition!" China Channel 5 commentator He Wei said loudly: "This is a long-range shot that can shake the mountain! Sanchez told the people of Liverpool that Lian Po is old! He still has a big appetite!"

Sanchez, who was in great condition, glanced at Li Qing intentionally or unintentionally, and the meaning in his eyes was very obvious - you are in good condition, and so am I!

The corners of Li Qing's mouth turned up slightly, raising a beautiful arc. The on-site director successfully captured this scene. The nymphomaniac fans in front of the TV were stunned and blurted out: "So handsome——"

The two sides went back and forth in the next game, and the game was lively. However, because their respective defenses took special care of the other's core players, the superstar players who could turn the tide were unable to perform at their full level due to various restrictions.

In the blink of an eye, the first half of the game came to 20 minutes. During this period, Li Qing and Sanchez led their respective teams to play wonderful offenses. Unfortunately, they failed to score in the end.

The game was in a stalemate for another ten minutes. The on-site director took advantage of the scene not being vivid enough and switched to the home and visiting team coaching benches. There was a clear difference in the reactions of the coaches of the two teams at this time. Wenger frowned and was worried. Luopu was smiling and full of expectation.

What Wenger is worried about is that defensive midfielder Xhaka has received a yellow card while defending Li Qing. There is no doubt that this will have a great impact on his subsequent defense. Prince Wilshere's attack is strong and weak. , and his body was obviously weaker than Li Qing's, and his defense seemed to be in vain.

Also, the assistance of the two central defenders Koscielny and Monreal is particularly important.

Sanchez came to the left to organize the attack. Seeing that the inside path was blocked, he had to take advantage of Niles to move forward to create a time difference, and then made a pass.

Lacazette was limited in height and could only watch as Van Dijk completed a header to clear the ball.

Since the ball's placement was controlled by Liverpool player Wijnaldum, the Arsenal players' counterattack in the first round had no effect. They had no choice but to file back into their own half and organize the defense.

Li Qing did not organize the offense in the midfield, because he could only drop back to receive the ball when the team's forward movement was blocked, turn around, and then send the football to a relatively safe place.

This is also a major feature of Liverpool's offense. Li Qing's skills are extremely good. Under normal circumstances, two people cannot steal the ball. Even a three-person defense can only destroy the football through fouls.

Back to the point, Liverpool advanced smoothly. Li Qing, who was cruising in the 35-meter area, suddenly retreated, and Wijnaldum sent a pass in a very tacit understanding.

Xhaka's pupils shrank suddenly, and he pressed forward. However, Li Qing seemed to have eyes behind his head. He raised his left foot to catch the ball but did not touch the ball. Instead, he deliberately let the ball go. The ball rolled along the ground to the feet of Salah who was attacking the right rib.

At the same time, Li Qing completed a clockwise turn next to Xhaka, from facing the goal with his back to the goal.

Salah did not stop the ball. He sent it horizontally, just sending the ball to Li Qing who turned around in a flash.

"aaoaooaoaoooooo——"

The Liverpool fans in the audience subconsciously made a loud cheer.

Li Qing played as a front midfielder in this game, that is, the player behind Firmino. Once Li Qing took the ball forward, it meant facing the back line directly, which was no different from losing the ball.

Xhaka, who was carrying a heavy responsibility, didn't care about the yellow card on his back, and hugged Li Qing straight from behind, just like a woman who hugged the scumbag who left cruelly after breaking up.

Li Qing was fast and explosive, but he couldn't resist Xhaka's hug around his waist, so he had to stop where he was and looked at the referee with his hands spread out.

The meaning was very clear. Xhaka had committed a foul like this, what do you think we should do...

The referee on duty, Anthony Taylor, had a very firm expression. He bypassed the Arsenal players who tried to plead, stood in front of Xhaka, and directly showed a yellow card.

Then, he took out a red card from his chest pocket.

Two yellows turned into one red!

"Arsenal is in trouble!"

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun exclaimed: "Xhaka got the second yellow card from Li Qing! He was sent off!"

"wuwuwuwuuuuuuuu——"

A burst of wild boos sounded over the Emirates Stadium, sent to the referee on duty, Anthony Taylor.

Wenger, on the other hand, looked relatively calm, standing in front of the home team's coaching booth, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

But in reality, he was thinking MMP.
