Chapter 490 Guardiola Wants to Defend His Dignity

Li Qing was the focus of the fans, and now he was wearing the captain's armband. His attention was undoubtedly the highest in the whole stadium, and other players were completely reduced to the background.

Wearing the captain's armband on his left arm, Li Qing did not forget his responsibilities. He turned around and explained to his teammates the corresponding adjustments made by head coach Klopp.

Liverpool's formation did not change, it was still 433. Li Qing replaced the more offensive Shaqiri, and Curtis Jones replaced Fabinho, who was good at attacking and defending.

"aoaoaooaoooooooo——"

The huge shouts like a tsunami resounded through the sky. Alisson took a short-distance goal kick from the backcourt. Liverpool's attack slowly developed from the back to the front. Li Qing, who played as a front midfielder, retreated to the center circle to get the ball. Fernandinho was the last barrier in front of the central defender and could not follow Li Qing away from the defensive area. Therefore, the responsibility of defending Li Qing fell on Foden and Gundogan.

The last time Foden and Li Qing faced off was in the 1/16 finals of the FA Youth Cup in the 2016-2017 season. In that game, Li Qing shined and led the Liverpool U18 youth team to a big victory and promotion. Li Qing also won Klopp's attention with his super performance in that game, and then he became unstoppable...

Thinking of Li Qing's legendary career in the past two years, Foden envied him very much.

He couldn't help but think that it was he who shined instead of Li Qing, then...would he be the one who became famous in the world?

Before he could fully think of a reason, Li Qing accelerated and changed direction with a very freehand swaying cow's tail, and rushed past in the opposite direction of Foden's reaction.

Facing Gundogan's backup, Li Qing, wearing the captain's armband on his left arm, faked a dunk and dunked the ball to the right front of his body. The cheers from the audience reached the extreme and were deafening: "Leeeeeeeeeeee——"

At this time, Li Qing had already brought the ball to 35 meters away from the goal. With a wide field of vision, he suddenly took a big step forward with his right foot and stood about 25 centimeters to the right of the football.

"Long shot——"

He Wei, the commentator of Tianchao Channel 5, raised his voice eight degrees.

The only defensive midfielder Fernandinho had no time to think about it. He subconsciously fell to the ground to block and tried to complete the block with his body.

Li Qing's mouth corners were slightly raised, raising a beautiful arc. The left foot he put down did not complete a powerful long shot, but rubbed the bottom of the football with the inside of the instep.

The football quickly took off and flew to Liverpool's left rib.

At the same time, Mane made a high-speed diagonal cut to Danilo and Laporte to defend the right rib, and his running position was consistent with Li Qing's pass.

"The ball is here! Li Qing's pass is really beautiful!"

Accompanied by a shout from He Wei, Mane stopped the ball and moved forward in one go. Facing the attacking Ederson, he chose to shoot low into the far corner.

Ederson fell to the ground quickly, but the ball was moving faster and went into the net along the inside of the right goal post...

The commentators in the live commentary booth were all passionate and excited. They were obviously ecstatic that Li Qing helped Liverpool equalize the score with his first touch as a substitute.

Foden stood there and looked at Li Qing's handsome back. His heart was full of envy and jealousy.

Mane helped Liverpool equalize the score. Almost all the commentators in the live commentary booth gave Li Qing praise. His passing and passing were just right, as if they were accurately calculated by a supercomputer. On the contrary, Mane, who received the ball and scored, seemed to be easier.

"aoaoaooaooaoooooooo——"

The huge cheers from the audience of the new Wembley Stadium swept the entire stadium. Mane, who scored the goal, took the initiative to run to Li Qing, who assisted, to celebrate the equalizer.

Liverpool coach Klopp seemed to be affected by the fanatical atmosphere, excitedly raising his arms and shouting, venting the emotional outburst brought by the equalizer.

In sharp contrast, Manchester City coach Guardiola frowned and kept communicating with his assistant. Although the score is now a tie, according to Li Qing's average of two goals per game in the past, the team must score at least two more goals in the future to let the game enter overtime, otherwise... the first championship of the season will have to be handed over.

If it were any other team, Guardiola would think that if they lost, they lost. Anyway, the Community Shield championship was worthless. If they lost it, they lost it. The problem was that the opponent was the defending champion Liverpool, which had won four championships in 2018. If they won the Community Shield again, it would be five championships. If they beat Atletico Madrid in the European Super Cup, Liverpool would tie the six championships he created during his coaching of Barcelona.

At the end of this year, there will be another Club World Cup held in the United Arab Emirates. Judging from Liverpool's overall strength, winning the championship is basically a foregone conclusion, and then it will be the seven-time champion!

Unprecedented!

Maybe Liverpool may not be able to beat Atletico Madrid in the European Super Cup, but Guardiola hopes to defend his dignity.

Losing too many games in the past two seasons, and last season was a shame to get a record Premier League runner-up points. He has enough reasons to need the team to win this strong dialogue at the beginning of the season.

The new season is about to begin. By defeating Liverpool led by Li Qing, Manchester City will definitely get better results than last season in the new 2018-2019 season!

Premier League champion!

Why not?

Before the game resumed, Manchester City made two adjustments in succession, David Silva replaced Phil Foden, and Jesus replaced Mahrez.

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun raised his voice by eight degrees: "Guardiola is going to fight!"

Foden, who was substituted off the field, put his hands on his hips and sighed. Although he was reluctant to leave the field, he could not go against the wishes of the head coach Guardiola, otherwise it would be difficult for him to develop in the football circle in the future.

Foden stood on the sidelines and looked at the high-spirited Li Qing, his hands clenched naturally.

Your success, I can do it too!

Manchester City, which had the advantage of kicking off, quickly organized an offensive. The ball came to the feet of Bernardo Silva on the right. Jesus and Aguero invaded the Liverpool penalty area like two sharp swords, which immediately attracted the defensive attention of Matip and Van Dijk.

Alisson was like a great enemy, concentrating and holding his breath.

Bernardo Silva used the change of his body's center of gravity to open the passing angle in the face of Robertson's defense, and the football flew towards Aguero quickly and quickly.

"wowoowowoowowooooo——"

The Liverpool fans in the audience just exclaimed, and Alisson left the goal and jumped high, and raised his right fist to hit the falling football fiercely.

With a "Boom" sound, the football flew out from the near end of Liverpool's small penalty area.

In a flash, the sound of Liverpool fans bursting out suddenly stopped, followed by the subconscious exclamation of Manchester City fans: "wwoowoowoowooo——"

The broadcast screen quickly caught up, and the commentator He Wei of Tianchao Channel 5 looked at the familiar face on the screen and shouted ecstatically: "Li Qing!"

Li Qing used his chest to stop the ball, raised his right foot, and lifted the falling football backward with the instep, and then used the landing right foot as the axis to complete two 90-degree turns, from the original back to the attack direction to the front of the attack direction.

Manchester City captain Fernandinho couldn't keep up with Li Qing's rhythm behind him, and couldn't even commit a foul.

Laporte, who maintained a good position with each other, tightened his upper body and bumped into him from the side.

"Fuck!"

Laporte, who had rushed over with all his strength, felt the huge reaction force from Li Qing's body, and the whole person bounced back with a rush, blurting out swear words.
