Chapter 609: Goal and Equalizer

"Stop him!" De Gea shouted to his teammates, and the whole person was already nervous.

Damian was a little flustered in front of Li Qing, and he tackled directly. Li Qing pulled the ball with his right foot while advancing at high speed, and easily dodged the opponent's tackle.

Smalling rushed up immediately afterwards, trying to force Li Qing to stop with a blocking foul. As a teammate of the national team, Smalling knew what it meant if Li Qing rushed into the penalty area like this.

But Li Qing still did not slow down when facing Smalling who rushed up. He saw the right time and poked the ball to the side gently. Then he suddenly accelerated again, bypassed Smalling, and caught up with the ball in an instant.

Damn, how could he be passed so easily? Lindelof moved his feet quickly, and the Swedish iceman's mood at the moment was not as calm as his expression looked.

Two teammates were easily passed by. The strength of the Premier League's top striker made him feel a little scalp numb. Seeing that Li Qing was still some distance away from the ball, while he was closer to the ball, Lindelof decided to take the initiative and shovel the ball away.

But just as Lindelof made a shovel, Li Qing accelerated again. In the blink of an eye, his toes were under the ball. At the same time, he gently lifted the ball and jumped up, just jumping over Lindelof.

Passing three people in a row was as easy as eating. Li Qing easily broke into the Manchester United penalty area.

De Gea left the goal and attacked. He stared at the ball nervously and rushed to Li Qing's feet. He didn't expect that in front of Li Qing, his three defensive teammates were like paper and were passed so easily.

But like Lindelof, De Gea underestimated Li Qing's speed. But it was also true that no one could have thought that in this situation, Li Qing could still accelerate. He saw that when he flicked his left foot, the ball went through De Gea's hands.

If a smarter striker were to do the next move, he would definitely let De Gea pounce on him and get a penalty kick, which is the safest way to score. But for Li Qing, a penalty kick is not safe. He can only feel at ease if he can send the ball directly into the goal.

So Li Qing, who poked the ball away, jumped high with both feet, jumped directly over De Gea, and then tried his best to catch up with the ball and shoot easily.

At this time, Manchester United's Ashley Young also chased back from the midfield, but he couldn't catch up with such a long-distance sprint. When he just caught up with Li Qing, Li Qing had already finished shooting, and he could only run into the goal with the ball.

"Goooooooooooal——"

The iconic long sound of Sky TV commentator Andy Gray sounded in the live broadcast room, and the whole Liverpool was suddenly jubilant.

After scoring the goal, Li Qing ran directly to the sidelines, faced the camera, pointed to the stands, and then put his hand back to his ear, making a listening gesture.

Li Qing's action immediately ignited Anfield Stadium, and more than 50,000 people sang in unison.

The little guy from Kirkby

If you underestimate him, you're dead

Lightning-speed, unparalleled skills

One goal after another led the great KOP to victory

Win the championship

Goals, goals

Never-ending goals

Li, our king

Accept the sincere worship of your believers

Victory, victory

…

The fans of Liverpool began to pull up the curtain in the stands, and a huge poster slowly unfolded, with Li Qing's face poster appearing on almost the entire north stand.

The fans sang the catchy "Song of Li Qing" in unison, and the song resounded throughout the stadium in an instant.

Klopp punched hard, turned around and celebrated with his assistant coach's chest against his chest. Li Qing's goal was so wonderful that the little worry he had in his heart before the game disappeared instantly.

Li Qing perfectly completed what a striker should do, stealing the ball from the midfield, running long distances and passing four Manchester United players including the goalkeeper, and finally letting the opponent's chasing players watch the ball go into the goal. What goal is more exciting than this?

Liverpool's boss and his wife, as well as CEO Peter Moore and other club executives were also infected by the atmosphere on the scene. They stood up and sang "Li Qing's Song" with the fans. The whole stadium instantly turned into a sea of ​​​​jubilation.

On the field, Li Qing, Mane, and Firmino hugged each other. Fabinho, Keita and others also surrounded them. Only Shaqiri stood outside the crowd with his lips bitten, looking at Li Qing who was surrounded in the center with some jealousy.

On the other hand, Manchester United fans who came to watch the game sat in their seats with their heads down and said nothing. The team they supported was beaten by the opponent alone. The visual impact was really exciting.

Ferguson and former Manchester United CEO David Gill looked grim. Sir Alex could have expected Manchester United to lose the ball today, but he never thought that he would lose the team's first goal in this way. He could have expected that Manchester United's next game would be very difficult to play.

Mourinho shook his head slightly on the sidelines. He had already arranged before the game that his players must keep a close eye on Li Qing, but he didn't expect him to score so quickly, and so easily.

The defense line that he had worked so hard to put together was easily penetrated by Li Qing alone. No one could snatch the ball from his feet. The Magic Bird gritted his teeth and waved his big hands vigorously, signaling to the players on the field.

The Manchester United players who lost a goal were a little confused, but after noticing the gestures of the head coach on the sidelines, they calmed down a little and quickly kicked off again.

The game restarted, and Manchester United's formation changed. Professor Yang retreated to become a full-back, and Lingard's position also retreated a little. Manchester United changed to a 442 formation and began to press Liverpool in the half.

After taking the lead, Liverpool began to relax a little, and the ball became more casual. Manchester United's actions also began to become bigger. Although Dalot received a yellow card for this, Liverpool also lost the ball in the midfield several times, almost allowing Manchester United to counterattack.

Li Qing noticed it and started shouting on the court, "Focus on it, are you relaxing after scoring a goal?"

Van Dijk on the back line raised his hand to show that he knew it, but midfielder Shaqiri and others were silent. Mane came up and patted Li Qing, "Li, relax, aren't we already leading?"

"One goal is considered leading? Your first day playing football?" Li Qing was a little annoyed when he heard it, and glared at Mane fiercely.

Mane looked embarrassed when he heard it, but from his eyes, he didn't think it was a big deal. Obviously, Li Qing's goal not only gave confidence to the Liverpool players on the field, but also had some other bad things.

As a result, within a few minutes, the ball was intercepted again in Liverpool's midfield. Lukaku received the ball and made a cross from the left. Alisson rushed out to save the ball but missed it. Lingard shot with his right foot in front of the small penalty area and scored the ball into Liverpool's goal, helping Manchester United equalize the score.
