Chapter 500: King of Kings in Europe, Sixth Crown of the Year
Salah, who scored the goal, was very excited. He wasted Li Qing's wonderful pass many times in the first half, which led to the team's inability to expand the score. If Li Qing had not used high-quality continuous passes to bring about qualitative changes, the team would not have led by two goals.
Diego Costa's goal helped Atletico Madrid regain suspense. At the critical moment, Li Qing stood up again to expand the score to two goals. If Atletico Madrid could seize the opportunity early, it would not have seen the hope of a reversal victory, and naturally there would be no need for Li Qing to stand up. Now the score is further expanded through penalties, which is equivalent to allowing the team to minimize losses.
Liverpool leads Atletico Madrid 4:1. Liverpool, the scoring side, should be the focus, but the switching of the broadcast screen forced the commentator in the on-site commentary seat to shift the topic to Atletico Madrid coach Simeone.
Simeone was standing on the sidelines yelling and shouting, and even his fat assistant Boggs could not hold him back. The referee Cakir obviously received a report from the fourth official on the sidelines. He ran to Simeone with a heavy face and took out a red card from his pocket without hesitation.
"Oh-My-God!"
Sky TV commentator Andy Gray exclaimed: "Diego Simeone got a red card! He was sent to the stands!"
Fans familiar with Simeone know that he is very impulsive. Tianchao 5 commentator He Wei shook his head and said: "Salah's penalty is fine. Godin did have a clear pulling action. This cannot be blamed on the referee. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame the defensive players for not paying attention. How could they let Li Qing easily send an accurate cross in the left rib of the attack?"
"Atletico Madrid is now three goals behind, and head coach Simeone was sent to the stands again. The next game... I'm afraid there will be no suspense."
Commentary guest Xu Yang said in a deep voice.
Diego Simeone, who was still making a lot of noise, was finally sent to the audience seats under the attack of UEFA staff. The Liverpool fans at the Riecola Stadium were afraid that the world would not be in chaos, and they created a tsunami-like violent booing to Diego Simeone who could not bear to lose: "wuwuuwuwuuwuwuuwuuu——"
The next game was just as Xu Yang predicted. After the head coach Simeone was sent to the stands, Atletico Madrid, which was three goals behind, lost its spirit and energy in an instant.
Liverpool, who were leading by a large score, had no desire to score any more goals. For them, there was no difference between winning 4:1 and 100:1. Besides, it would be meaningless to score more goals against Atletico Madrid who had no fighting spirit, and it would increase the chance of injury to the players.
Klopp would not do something that was thankless.
When the full-time whistle sounded, the scoreboard showed 5:2. In the last ten minutes of the game, Correa, who came on as a substitute, and Origi, a Feng Shui striker who also came on as a substitute, scored one goal each.
"The game is over! Liverpool, the 2017-2018 Champions League champion, defeated Atletico Madrid, the UEFA Champions League champion, 5:2 at the Heracles Stadium, winning the 2018 European Super Cup and becoming the king of kings in Europe!"
He Wei, the commentator of China Channel 5, shouted hysterically: "Liverpool won the sixth championship in 2018, tying the six championships created by the current Manchester City coach Guardiola in 2009 with the universe team Barcelona! Becoming the second six-time champion team in world football! Liverpool will also have the Club World Cup at the end of this year. If they can win the championship as they wish, they will become the world football team. Unprecedented seven-time champion!"
Commentary guest Xu Yang said loudly: "If Liverpool really wins the Club World Cup at the end of the year, they will definitely become a legend in the world football, and Li Qing, the king of football, will also reach an incredible height in his career! Seven-time champion, it is really an unimaginable super achievement!"
The live director's close-up shot was given to Li Qing on the bench at the first time. Liverpool was able to beat Atletico Madrid at the Riecera Stadium, largely because Li Qing's dominance on the court was too strong, and he could bring continuous threats to Oblak on the offensive end, causing Atletico Madrid players to be busy with defense and have no time to take care of their expertise in quick counterattacks.
In addition, Atletico Madrid players were ruthlessly hit by Li Qing's super performance, and their confidence was frustrated. They wanted to beat Liverpool and win the European Super Cup, which became an extreme hell mode.
As a Liverpool fan, Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun was ecstatic when he saw Li Qing lead Liverpool to win the European Super Cup. He shouted hysterically: "The best player contributed by Kirkby Youth Academy! Li Qing has surpassed his predecessors Fowler, Owen, and Gerrard, becoming the new flag of Kirkby Youth Academy and the new king of Anfield!"
"The European Super Cup championship is definitely not Liverpool's last championship this year. I believe that the Club World Cup held in the United Arab Emirates at the end of the year will definitely be Liverpool's bag. By then, the annual seven-time champion will create an unprecedented new record in European football! Everything! It all comes from the broadcast screen of this teenager who has not yet reached the age of 18!"
"Meeting the young Li Qing in the twilight years of Messi and Ronaldo is a great start for you and me who love football. According to Li Qing's competitive state, he can still have at least ten years of best condition. If Li Qing can be as self-disciplined as Ronaldo and Messi, it is very possible to maintain his best condition for another fifteen years. There is no doubt... This... belongs to our luck."
Countless Chinese fans sitting in front of their computer screens were speechless and moved, but at the same time, they could not help but feel some resentment. Of course, this emotion was not directed at Li Qing, but at the incompetent Chinese Football Association, the organization that personally rejected Li Qing.
If the attitude had been a little better at the beginning, at least not to throw dirty water casually, perhaps... the boy in front of him would be a Chinese international.
The European King of Kings is not the first time in Liverpool's history. In the 2001 European Super Cup, they defeated Bayern Munich 3:2 and won the European King of Kings, thus being crowned the five-time champion that year.
Liverpool players all ran towards Li Qing to celebrate this "hard-won" European Super Cup championship.
At the same time, UEFA staff were busy setting up the temporary podium for the European Super Cup champion.
Klopp took the initiative to walk towards Diego Simeone, the head coach of Atletico Madrid, who had already come down from the audience, and shook hands with him. Although Diego Simeone had opinions about the referee, he respected Klopp. After exchanging a few words, they returned to their respective coaching seats...
The most enthusiastic atmosphere in the Helierkla Stadium was when Captain Henderson held up the trophy symbolizing the championship, and the entire Liverpool fans burst into a huge and violent shout like a tsunami: "aoaoaooaooaoaooooooo——"
"The King of Kings in Europe in 2018! Liverpool from the Premier League! The sixth championship of the year! Congratulations to Li Qing! Congratulations to Liverpool!"
He Wei, the commentator of Tianchao Channel 5, shouted with excitement: "The 2018 Club World Cup will kick off in the UAE at the end of the year. I look forward to the moment when Liverpool wins the championship! The seventh championship at the end of the year!"
