Ten days of training have been carried out step by step, and then pre-season training will begin.
Li Tiancheng looked tired as his mother packed his luggage: "Mom, we are just going to Wales this time!"
"I know, then you have to go abroad. Europe is always composed of small countries, and there is no Qin Shihuang to unify them. Apart from better football, I don't think there is anything good about it." Xu Jingfang was in high spirits and didn't care about herself at all.
What does son mean? I just enjoy the feeling of packing my son’s luggage.
"Dear mother, don't talk nonsense and go abroad? Wales is also England!" Li Tiancheng leaned against the door frame and rolled his eyes.
"Really? Then why is it England and Ireland at the same time? Forget it, let's just assume they are the same country!" Xu Jingfang waved her hand very grandly.
"What do you mean... forget it, dear mommy!" Li Tiancheng pinched his throat.
"What are you doing?!" Xu Jingfang shuddered.
"I'm just telling you, it's only a two-hour drive from Liverpool to Wales. We'll go there by bus tomorrow and come back the same night after the game!" Li Tiancheng returned to his normal tone. After all, if he disgusts others, he will feel uncomfortable as well. This kind of thing
Often it can't be done.
Xu Jingfang looked back with disbelief on her face, and Li Tiancheng nodded in affirmation.
"Hi," Xu Jingfang put down the clothes in her hands: "I'll wait until you go to the United States to clean it up for you. You said that your club really doesn't know how to do business, why don't you come to Asia to see Real Madrid?
You can make more money by traveling to Asia, and it’s also closer to our home!”
"Yes, yes, I will try to let them play games in our county in the future for you to see."
"You're a kid who knows how to tease mom." Xu Jingfang left her son's room. It was a pity that she finally had the opportunity to pack her son's luggage.
"Ha..." Li Tiancheng looked at his mother's back and laughed. Sometimes he really felt that his mother was a little childish.
I looked back at the suitcase and realized that there was no need to pack so many things.
It was his first professional competition. Even though it was a friendly match, Li Tiancheng was still eager to try.
Wrexham, a Welsh second division team, was Liverpool's opponent in their first warm-up match.
The small stands are already full, and the ticket revenue from this game is estimated to be enough for several of their usual games.
Although Owen, Gerrard, Baros and other players who have participated in the European Cup did not come to this game, it still attracted a large number of fans to flock to the stadium to watch the game. This is the appeal of the Red Army Liverpool. Those superstars are not here, ordinary people
The stars are also very attractive.
It's obvious that Benitez really doesn't care about winning or losing.
He kept jumping around on the sidelines, yelling and directing the players to move.
It's just that Spanish is mixed with English, and I don't know how many people can understand it.
Some couldn't stand the energy of Benitez's command. Liverpool played a bit messy. The players were still not familiar with Benitez's tactics. From time to time, they had to go back to their old ways, and then came back to their senses when Benitez shouted.
Come on, kicking is a tangle!
After the opening, Welsh international player Leveley had two shots first.
Not long after, the bad momentum became a reality. Lawrence headed the ball past Ferguson on the left, who passed the ball from the left, and Sam scored from close range in the middle.
Wrexham 1:0 Liverpool!
Benitez didn't care about the result, but the Liverpool players couldn't stand it. They almost immediately used their strength and launched a fierce attack on the Wrexham goal!
The score was equalized a few minutes later. Cisse passed back and Biscayne shot in the penalty area. The ball was blocked by the Wrexham goalkeeper and hit the post. Letale shot into the net first.
1:1.
The score was evened, and then it was back to training.
Even though the scene was relatively chaotic, Cisse gradually showed his superhuman strength. A very beautiful hook shot, but unfortunately it missed the far corner slightly.
The opponent immediately stepped up their surveillance on him, and when he picked up the ball outside the penalty area again, he hit him directly in the ribs with an elbow, causing Cisse to lie directly on the ground in pain.
Li Tiancheng was concentrating on observing the situation on the field. Of course he had a panoramic view of this scene, and he was also grinning. This situation made everyone feel the same.
Cisse personally took the free kick. His free kick was of good quality, but unfortunately the ball was a little slow and the Wrexham goalkeeper rubbed the ball over the crossbar with his fingertips.
The quality of the subsequent corner kick was so inferior that Li Tiancheng felt that he should stay on the court!
Later, Wrexham also won a corner kick. Liverpool's defense unexpectedly missed a man. The opponent was unmarked and calmly adjusted his shot. Fortunately, the guy's shooting skills were not good, and the ball flew out against the crossbar!
At halftime, Benitez changed ten people. Except for the goal hero Letale, everyone was replaced, including the goalkeeper!
But Li Tiancheng was still sitting on the bench.
After Letale and Pongler frantically wasted several chances, they finally scored again.
In the 75th minute, Panglede started quickly, threw away the defense and went straight to the bottom line, passing the ball into the small penalty area. Letale outflanked him and shot the ball into the far corner, scoring twice!
Liverpool took the lead, and the coordination was quite beautiful. Li Tiancheng breathed a sigh of relief. The previous scenes were messy and really uncomfortable.
"This guy is quite fast, but he can't always control the timing of starting."
Li Tiancheng was thinking secretly when Benitez called him over and was about to play!
Letale exits, Li Tiancheng enters. Although it only lasts for ten minutes, it is better than nothing.
Li Tiancheng had just come on the field and was observing the situation when he was suddenly hit and almost fell down. Looking back, Ferguson grinned: "The football field is not a playground."
Li Tiancheng smiled and suddenly ran away. Ferguson, who was feeling proud, suddenly changed his face - Li Tiancheng ran into the passing path of his teammate!
After successfully intercepting the ball, Li Tiancheng did not hesitate and put the ball directly into the penalty area. Behind the opponent's defense, Pangler accelerated his diagonal run at the moment Li Tiancheng passed the ball, threw away the defender, received the ball from outside the penalty area, and shot directly.
, done in one go!
3:1
Liverpool extends its lead!
Looking at Pangler who was laughing and running towards him, Li Tiancheng went up to him and high-fived, hugged and celebrated the goal!
Benitez also applauded on the sidelines. That's it. Our forward has a speed advantage, so we have to give him some advance time when passing the ball. This little guy is really smart in playing football!
In the next game, Li Tiancheng continued to work hard to find and run into gaps, catch the ball, and pass the ball.
When it comes to competing physically with opponents, I am indeed at a disadvantage now, so I have to pass and cut better than them. Although my teammates are not familiar with it, it is enough to make the opponent uncomfortable.
Ferguson had a headache and found that he couldn't keep up with the little guy.
Other Wrexham players also have headaches. Often after Li Tiancheng successfully catches the ball, he realizes that there is no one of his own around him.
Excellent running ability allows Li Tiancheng to calmly display his passing skills.
If the time hadn't been too short, their goal would have turned into a sieve long ago.
Hearing the whistle at the end of the game, Li Tiancheng smacked his lips, but he didn't feel very sorry. This kind of game can't explain anything.
As long as there are gains, playing is not in vain. A certain level of skill is enough to handle physical confrontations. There is nothing wrong with La Masia's education.
