Chapter 504: Perfect Hat Trick

Li Qing helped Liverpool break the deadlock at the King Power Stadium. Head coach Klopp secretly breathed a sigh of relief while standing in the visiting team coach command area. Although he highly recognized the team's ability, the biggest feature of a football game is that it is full of uncertainty, even with top players like Li Qing.

Only when the score is leading is the most real.

Klopp, who appeared on the broadcast screen, was in high spirits, raised his arms and shouted, venting the pressure brought by the lead.

The team has won an amazing 57 rounds of unbeaten across seasons since February 2017. If they can win at the King Power Stadium, the cross-season unbeaten record will be increased to 58 rounds, officially tying AC Milan's record of 58 rounds of unbeaten across the five major European leagues!

Thinking of this possibility, Klopp was overwhelmed, and he wished that the current score could be maintained until the end of the game.

Li Qing, who scored this time, was not as arrogant as in the past. He responded to the thunderous applause of the home fans with applause, and then hugged and high-fived his teammates to celebrate the goal.

In the restarted game, Leicester City consciously strengthened its offense, but the offensive end lacked explosive points, so the offense relied more on crosses from the two flanks, and then Vardy competed for the header.

Whether it was Van Dijk or Joe Gomez, their ability to compete for the header was very outstanding. They had a lot of momentum but couldn't get any chances. The Leicester City fans in the audience were very depressed.

If Leicester City still had a warrior, it was definitely Vardy.

Back to the point, Liverpool, which had an overall advantage in strength, gradually took control of the game. After Li Qing had the talent [Offensive Organizer], he had a higher understanding of offensive organization and knew how to become an excellent midfield core. His erratic running directly brought the threat that all the corresponding tactics formulated by Leicester City coach Pierre before the game were invalidated.

Li Qing had the most prepared judgment on when to break through and when to pass the ball, so that many times the double defensive midfielder combination of Ndidi and Mendy was not at work.

In this case, Liverpool has not been able to expand the score. The problem is still that the striker's final kick was a little bit off, but Klopp is not worried that the team will not be able to take away three points at the King Power Stadium.

With Mahrez's transfer to Manchester City, Leicester City's biggest danger comes from Vardy, whose momentum and ability can break through the goal guarded by Alisson.

The threats created by Albrighton, Maddison and Gray are not even as great as those posed by Mahrez in the past, so it gives Liverpool's defenders more room to maneuver, so that they can focus more on assists.

Robertson and Arnold, who are good at attacking, gradually showed their due power. In the 29th minute, Arnold sent a wonderful cross from the right, and the ball bypassed Maguire at the front point. Veteran Morgan blocked Firmino behind him. Just as he was about to jump to clear the ball, a red figure flashed in front of him, and the big number 10 behind him told him who was coming.

"Li Qing——"

Juli TV commentator Zhan Jun's voice rose eight octaves. Li Qing jumped high and headed the ball to the upper right corner of the goal. Goalkeeper Schmeichel was a little slow to react, and the ball hit the snow-white net. Zhan Jun was ecstatic: "Header! The ball went in! The ball went in! 2:0! Li Qing used his seventh goal of the season to help Liverpool expand the score!"

"This ball was headed beautifully!"

Tianchao 5 commentator He Wei shouted at the top of his lungs: "Li Qing is becoming more and more comprehensive. He can assist with passes, score with long shots, and score goals with points. I think... except for goalkeepers, other positions can play very high data! It's incredible!"

BBC commentator Lineker , the current leader of the Li Qing Cult, almost shouted crazily: "Incredible performance! The game has only started for half an hour! Li scored two goals with a long shot and a header respectively! There is still an hour left in the game. Will he score again? I think the fans in front of the TV are looking forward to the moment when Li performs a perfect hat trick like me!"

The so-called perfect hat trick is to score with the left foot, right foot and header respectively, and Li Qing scored with his right foot and header, which is obviously not far from scoring with his dominant left foot...

But until the end of the first half, Li Qing did not score a goal, and Mane, Firmino and Salah missed great opportunities one after another, resulting in Liverpool missing a three-goal lead.

The fifteen-minute halftime break passed quickly, and the two sides changed sides and fought again. Leicester City, who was at home, tried to strengthen the attack to narrow the gap. The offensive came up, but there was no actual progress in scoring goals.

In the 51st minute, Li Qing received a pass from Henderson and suddenly accelerated to the left to dodge Ndidi's defense. He opened the passing angle with his left foot and sent a low pass. The ball rolled along the ground to Salah who was running to the right rib.

Salah, who was running at high speed, stopped and passed Chilwell and Maguire's defense. Without waiting for Mendy to come forward to make up for the defense, he stood on the penalty area line with his right foot and swung his left foot naturally to complete a high-quality powerful low shot.

Goalkeeper Schmeichel's vision was blocked. When he saw the ball rushing out from the gap between people, it was too late to react.

0:3

The score on the scoreboard changed again. Unfortunately, the home team was in front and the visiting team was behind.

Liverpool's 3:0 lead over Leicester City was not the last goal. In the 76th minute, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson started to play recklessly when the team was leading by a large score. He made a huge mistake. He received a pass from Van Dijk and faced Vardy's pressing. Instead of kicking the ball, he chose to dribble. As a result, his footwork was not used well. The ball remained in the same place after the man passed.

Vardy is an emotionless killer. How could he let go of such an opportunity?

With a gentle push of his right foot, the football flew into the empty goal, and the score on the scoreboard became 1:3.

Alisson, who made a fatal mistake, felt a little ashamed to face the world. As one of the most expensive goalkeepers in the world football today, Liverpool is the team with the highest exposure rate now. Making a mistake... will undoubtedly be infinitely magnified.

Li Qing sighed. He took the initiative to comfort Alisson when the captain Henderson was substituted. Everyone makes mistakes, but unfortunately it was Alisson.

This scene was captured by the on-site director, and the commentator Zhan Jun of Juli TV said loudly: "The youngest captain, be the most successful captain!"

Vardy's goal was not the last goal of the game. In the 83rd minute of the game, the Feng Shui striker dribbled the ball and caused Maguire to foul, helping Liverpool get a direct free kick in an excellent position.

"aoaooaoaooaooooooo——"

Li Qing, the number one free kick taker in Liverpool, took the responsibility. Amid the cheers of the fans, Li Qing once again used the free kick as a penalty kick.

The football that rose from the ground had a clear inner instep arc, bypassed the wall, and hit the snow-white net in the upper left corner of the goal...

"A beautiful direct free kick! If I remember correctly, this is Li Qing's perfect hat trick in his career! Liverpool leads Leicester City 4:1!"

He Wei, the commentator of Tianchao Channel 5, raised his voice eight degrees: "With injury time at most ten minutes, Liverpool is expected to tie AC Milan's cross-season unbeaten record of 58 league rounds!"
