An old man with a red nose, chewing gum, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
He raised his hand, pointed and asked: "The Asian player in Leverkusen is very good, which country is he from?"
The assistant on the side said: "Jazz, his name is Son Heung-min, and he comes from the same country as Park Ji-sung."
Ferguson nodded appreciatively: "Well, he runs tirelessly on the court, just like Park back then, with self-discipline, hard work and a good attitude towards the game!"
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Leverkusen's bench: "Leverkusen's No. 10? That's a great number, and it's actually worn by an Asian! He's much more handsome than Son Heung-min, and he's also a great player.
Player?"
The assistant shook his head: "He is the Dragonborn."
puff.
Ferguson quickly spit out his chewing gum, took out a white handkerchief and wiped his mouth.
There was a hint of disgust in his expression.
It seemed to be brought back a distant memory.
"Dragon Country is a great country, but it must not have anything to do with their football."
Return to the field.
The two teams fought hard against each other.
But Leverkusen was completely unable to deliver the ball to the front line.
Calhanoglu is like a transparent person who is tightly restricted.
After Leverkusen's two full-backs are positioned, they are ready to provide him with more ball-playing points.
Manchester United's frontcourt pressure became more fierce.
"Facing a Premier League-level midfielder, Calhanoglu's static ball handling and physical confrontation are completely at a disadvantage."
"Schmidt wanted to reduce the pressure on Calhanoglu to release the ball, but it was of no use. Increasing the ball release points on both sides would not solve the pressure on the midfielder."
"Both teams advocate offensive football and pressing style of play. Although Manchester United fielded many young players, they clearly took the initiative in the game!"
The 24th minute of the game.
Calhanoglu finally got rid of Fellaini and was about to send a through ball.
Boom!
A red figure beats the horse to kill.
Calhanoglu stumbled and fell to the ground.
Herrera easily intercepted the ball!
"Maldini once said: When I need to make a tackle, it means I have made a mistake."
"But that doesn't apply to Premier League teams!"
"Herrera passed the ball back to Blind? Isn't this just missing the best opportunity to counterattack? Leverkusen's backcourt is empty!"
Blinder took a slight approach.
Body tilt.
His left foot hit the football hard!
The football lifted off the ground.
Spin at high speed and fly towards Leverkusen's backcourt.
"pretty!"
"Long ball across half the court!"
Manchester United fans don't like the Dutch centre-back.
But Van Gaal stubbornly believed that the left center back must be played by a left-footed player to ensure the ball advantage.
In Leverkusen's backcourt, only Jonathan Towers and Papadopoulos are left.
The two full-backs, Bender and Kramer, in order to serve Calhanoglu, cannot come back in the frontcourt!
Martial raised his foot to stop the ball in the thirty-meter area.
Immediately it exploded with astonishing speed!
Heading towards Leverkusen's penalty area.
Lingard is also sprinting wildly from the other side.
Although I couldn't outrun the referee this time.
But there is no suspense about the outcome.
Martial separated the two Leverkusen central defenders and passed the ball into the penalty area in a small space!
Lingard did not panic at all, facing the attacking Leverkusen goalkeeper.
Reaching the ball behind the back.
One move moves the scorpion's tail.
Used his back heel to score Leverkusen's goal again.
2:0!!!
"pretty!"
"So imaginative! Lingard again! He is the hope of Old Trafford and the future of English football!"
"Manchester United has extended its lead!"
"Leverkusen needs to think of a solution."
Schmidt's face was ashen.
Manchester United faced Leverkusen, forming a dimensionality reduction attack at the tactical level!
Player matchup ability?
Did you see Rooney and Mata coming off the Manchester United bench?
Those two guys are warming up!
The Leverkusen fans in front of the TV were crying.
Why didn't their all-powerful Chaqiu King turn the tide?
The game time passed by minute by minute.
"Beep! Beep beep~"
The referee blew the whistle to end the first half.
Leverkusen players walked off the field listlessly.
Manchester United players happily interacted with fans in the stands.
"Li, please help me take a look at the coach's thermos cup."
The assistant coach uttered a word and hurried towards the tunnel.
Li Kang did not need to participate in the "halftime meeting" in the locker room.
He just sat alone in the corner of the bench.
It seems to have nothing to do with this game.
The pilot shot just moved to the bench.
Longguo Live Room.
-
[Hey, I don’t have a chance to play, and I don’t even have to attend the locker room meeting. Is it any different from being isolated? Brother Li might as well go back to the youth team to practice!]
-
[Leverkusen has a big headwind in this game, do you still dare to send Li Kang? 】
-
[Brother Li is very good in the youth league, but this is the Champions League! Even if Leverkusen is crazy about money, they don’t dare to play too many games.]
-
[Manchester United has many fans in the Dragon Kingdom. If Li Kang can appear at Old Trafford, any advertisement will be more useful than Leverkusen.]
Leverkusen dressing room.
Schmidt blushed and roared crazily.
"Sun, your running is meaningless, you should retreat more to meet Hakan!"
"And Lars, you should step forward to protect Hakan!"
"I don't understand why you guys couldn't stop the two young players from Manchester United and were scored twice in the same way. Are they better than Robben? Christophe, go home with your game console.
Bar!"
There was silence.
Not a single player objected.
Leverkusen's morale hit rock bottom.
Schmidt walked aside and left his morale-boosting words to only one person.
He gently said to Calhanoglu: "Hakan! We still have time! You are our core!"
The fifteen-minute break ended quickly.
Players from both sides returned to the field.
"Leverkusen used their first substitution!"
"Young player Brandt replaced Bella Rabbi. This is a matchup substitution!"
"In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again! We look forward to the two teams bringing us a more exciting game!"
"The referee blows the whistle and the second half officially begins!"
The situation in Leverkusen is still not developing for the better.
Even if the whole team is serving Calhanoglu.
He is still lost in the frenzied strangulation of Manchester United's midfield.
-
[What's going on? Why is the Chaqiu King not working? 】
-
[Players with this style are very normal, they become gods when going with the wind, and they become dogs when the wind goes against them.]
-
[Leverkusen is in trouble, I can’t understand why Manchester United fans cry weak all day long. No matter how bad the Manchester United lineup is, it’s still easy to handle the top teams in the five major leagues! Rooney and Mata haven’t even played yet!]
The 60th minute of the game.
After Brandt received the ball, he did not give it to Calhanoglu to organize.
Schmidt yelled furiously on the sidelines.
It's of no use.
Brandt chose to do it himself.
He dribbled the ball towards Manchester United's half-space by himself.
Facing Smalling's pressing, he suddenly increased his speed and tried to change direction.
Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my calf.
The whole person fell to the ground.
Beep!
The referee blew the whistle and showed Smalling a yellow card!
"Judging from the slow-motion replay, Smalling kicked Brandt in the calf!"
"Leverkusen got a good free kick opportunity in the frontcourt! Can you get one back!"
"It's Calhanoglu's time to show off! Last season! His free kick percentage topped the five major leagues!"
Calhanoglu stands in front of the penalty spot.
Waving his hand to signal other teammates to participate in the attack, he does not need to feint a free kick.
Old Trafford Stadium suddenly erupted into bursts of boos.
Manchester United fans are very disgusted with this "Beckham imitator".
Not to mention the level of free kicks.
In terms of looks alone, he is not on the same level as Beckham.
Courtside.
Schmidt seemed to see a glimmer of hope.
He stood bowed on the sidelines, staring intently at the Manchester United half.
Calhanoglu scored 6 free kicks last season!
Leverkusen hasn't lost yet!
We still have a chance!
The other side.
Van Gaal crossed his legs and looked relaxed.
"What position do you think he will play?"
Giggs took the tactical board and said seriously:
"The coaching staff analyzed the data from last season and there is a 70% probability that he will play in the upper left corner."
Calhanoglu started a lateral run-up.
Get to the ball in three steps.
Twist and exert force.
Swing your legs!
The football lifted off the ground.
With an arc like a scimitar.
Crossed the human wall.
Directly into the upper left corner of Manchester United's goal!
"pretty!"
"Old Trafford Stadium, the scimitar of the full moon reappears!"
De Gea slammed his feet on the turf.
That's an incredible reaction speed.
The body stretches to the extreme in mid-air!
The red gloves were clenched into a fist.
Boom!
The football was blocked out of bounds!
The Old Trafford Stadium instantly erupted into thunderous applause.
Leverkusen fans are in a state of shock.
Calhanoglu looked blank.
The force of my free kick and the contact point on the ball were perfect, so why was it blocked!
"The 25-year-old De Gea made a miraculous save. His expression was very relaxed and he was still chewing gum!"
"He is called the successor of Casillas and Edwin van der Sar!"
"The cornerstone of Manchester United's defense for the next ten years!"
-
[We should be grateful that Real Madrid’s fax machine is broken! It kept De Gea at Manchester United!]
-
[De Gea’s long legs have a higher blocking success rate than his hands. Leverkusen is out of business!]
-
[The weak team is the best out of the gate! (The dog head saves life!)]
"Glory,glory,Man United~"
"Glory,glory,Man United~"
“And the reds go marching on on on!!!”
Manchester United's team anthem floats in the sky above Old Trafford.
Passionate and loud.
Inspiring.
But in the ears of the Leverkusen coach, it was an elegy from hell.
Schmidt sat back on the coaching bench in despair.
He couldn't think of any countermeasures.
There is no better midfielder on the bench than Calhanoglu.
Leverkusen's players are demoralized.
In terms of one-on-one ability alone, Son Heung-min and Kiessling will not lose to any player on Manchester United's defense.
But the football never reached their feet.
If you drop back to catch the ball, the offensive rhythm will become very slow.
The scene will turn into a positional battle again.
positional warfare.
Leverkusen did not have much advantage against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Calhanoglu also became more and more irritable under Herrera's entanglement.
He began to blame his teammates for their movement and timing.
The 82nd minute of the game.
Calhanoglu was tackled again while dribbling the ball.
He rolled on the turf in pain.
"The referee signaled the team doctor to come in quickly!"
"Ah! Judging from the slow-motion replay, Herrera did not commit a foul. He destroyed the ball first and then brought it to Calhanoglu!"
"If Calhanoglu cannot persist in the game, it will definitely be worse for Leverkusen!"
Courtside.
When Schmidt saw the team doctor's gesture.
All thoughts are lost.
There are only 8 minutes of regular time left in the game.
The core midfielder was injured again.
How else can you kick!
Do you really want to replace that dragonborn?
This is the Champions League qualifying round!
"Let Lee play."
"But he hasn't warmed up yet."
Li Kang heard the assistant coach calling his name.
The system prompt also sounded quietly at the same moment.
[Ding! Mission trigger: Shining Dream Theater!]
[Task content: This ancient and great stadium has produced countless legendary moments. Believe in yourself, you can do it too! 】
[Task reward: Platinum treasure chest!]
"Listen, forget it Li, play hard, we can't concede any more goals!"
The assistant coach took back all the tactical details he wanted to talk about.
He felt that Li Kang could not understand it in a short period of time.
The four stands at Old Trafford.
Manchester United fans looked curiously at the Asian teenager wearing Leverkusen's No. 10 jersey.
Can't help but whisper.
Van Gaal smiled:
"Isn't that the little guy we met in the passage?"
Giggs nodded: "Before the game, our coaching staff did not find any game data about him in the first team. We only knew that he was from La Masia."
Van Gaal's face darkened, as if he didn't want to think about his past coaching Barcelona.
"We see that Leverkusen has made another substitution adjustment!"
"No. 10 player Li Kang, replace Calhanoglu! It should be a matchup substitution."
"We are not very familiar with the characteristics of this Dragonborn player."
"I hope he can perform brilliantly!"
-
[What about the brother who said that Li Kang can only play in the first team? He not only played in the Bundesliga, but also played in the Champions League qualifying matches. 】
-
[No matter what, can he touch the ball? Does winning have anything to do with him? 】
-
[Leverkusen just failed and completed the business development task at the end of the game.]
-
[Brother Li is very powerful! A great weapon in the youth league!]
-
[Manchester United fans cry weak, Li Kang fans cry strong]
Li Kang stood on the sidelines of the center circle.
The system panel also appears in front of you.
[Possession: 74; Passing: 81.]
[Shots: 65; Headers: 59; Set kicks:??.]
[Arc: 68; Speed: 72↑; Foot power: 70↑.]
[Jump: 67; Body contact: 78↑; Stamina: 79↑.]
[Defense: 76; Steals: 74↑; Goalkeeping: 30.]
During this time, with the help of the destructive midfield template.
Several of his attributes have been greatly improved.
Beep!
The referee blows the whistle.
All the data in front of Li Kang also disappeared in an instant.
