The Manchester United coaching staff seemed a little at a loss.
The opponent has the advantage of two away goals.
Now we are two goals ahead.
Not to mention one less person to beat.
The game is becoming more and more difficult.
The Manchester United players looked frustrated.
If they fail to break into the Champions League this season, it will definitely be a shame for the Red Devils!
After the Leverkusen players celebrated.
Amid the applause of the fans, he slowly walked off the field.
Old man Top quickly greeted Li Kang and asked about his physical condition with concern.
Dino quickly handed over a dry towel and water.
Li Kang smiled and shook his head.
He was a little confused: with God's perspective, it was impossible to see through Van Gaal's tactical system, but Manchester United was not very strong.
Longguo Live Room.
The big screen showed various statistics of both teams in the first half.
"Leverkusen's passing success rate in past games only reached 70%!"
"But in this first half, the success rate of threatening passes alone reached 81%! This does not include safe passes in our own half."
-
[An inverted kick is an inverted kick. What do you mean by safe passing? 】
-
[Looking at the replay clip now, it seems that Li Kang didn't take the ball at all during the offensive advancement stage. It's not Barcelona's Tiki-taka pass and control, nor Arsenal's pass and cut. The most important thing is to hold the ball steadily! 】
-
[He seems to be of Spanish nationality. I guess in a few years, the Matador football dynasty will be revived! 】
-
[Brothers! Keep charging at Leverkusen in the second half! With Li Mingdeng here! It’s absolutely stable!]
Leverkusen dressing room.
Old Man Top moved the small flag on the tactical board.
"After Depay came off the field, Manchester United's formation changed to 4-4-1! At least 7 players will participate in the defensive press in front of the penalty area. Bellarabi, you can't be so sticky during the attack!"
"Mata's defense and pressing are very weak, but this kid has a strong sense of position. Pay attention, at the end of the first half, he can always cut off the passing connection between Lee and the wing!"
"We can't predict what changes Van Gaal will make in the second half. In short, maintain the rhythm of the first half and don't be thrown into confusion by their defensive pressure! Don't let them have the opportunity to organize a counterattack!"
"The goddess of victory is smiling at us!"
The players nodded seriously.
Although many people think that what the coach said before is nonsense: as long as Li Kang is here, Manchester United, with one less player to play, will only be suppressed by Leverkusen.
But the old man’s last words inspired morale!
The goddess of victory is smiling!
We are only 45 minutes away from reaching the Champions League main draw!
The fifteen-minute intermission ended quickly.
Players from both sides returned to the field.
"Good evening, viewers, welcome back, the second half of the UEFA Champions League qualifying play-offs for the 2015/16 season will be broadcast live for you now!"
“We’re seeing personnel changes on both sides of the ball!”
"Manchester United, Martial replaces Rooney!"
"For Leverkusen, Brandt replaces Li Kang!"
"With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially begins!"
The next game didn't have many twists and turns.
In the second half, Leverkusen did not suppress Manchester United as crazy as in the first half.
Instead, the game becomes fragmented.
The football kept flying out of bounds.
Manchester United simply couldn't push the ball past the center circle.
The 19-year-old Brandt has already shown the characteristics of snake oil.
His defensive ability is not strong, and his elegant style of play is more like a South American player.
But he is extremely fast and moves from the winger to the deep midfield position, which is completely the nemesis of players like Martial and Lingard.
Manchester United's Juan Mata is also closely watched by Cramer.
Son Heung-min and Bellarabi also participated in the team's defense.
Only then did Leverkusen fans realize that without Calhanoglu, their team's defensive layering was too strong.
Every player's movement was released. When resisting Manchester United's wing advance, the timing of switching defenses and positions was perfect.
The game time passed by minute by minute.
Soon it came to the final stoppage time.
Van Gaal held the mineral water bottle and said helplessly: "This bad old man Top is so shameless. He is delaying the game in this way!"
Then he looked towards the bench.
Sighed.
Nowadays, Manchester United is full of old players, young players and injured players, and there really is no one available for them.
Giggs hesitated to speak: "Boss"
Van Gaal shook his head: "If we can't beat this Leverkusen team, then even if we enter the Champions League, can we still break through the group stage?"
Giggs was startled.
It seems that I have to accept the reality in front of me.
We won’t be playing in the Champions League this year.
European giants Manchester United have never been so in decline.
World-famous coach Louis van Gaal has never been so embarrassed.
finally.
The referee blew the whistle to end the game.
Leverkusen 2:0 Manchester United.
Eliminated the opponent with a total score of 4:2 and advanced to the Champions League main draw!
"Congratulations to Bayer Leverkusen! Congratulations to Li Kang!"
"In the two rounds of Champions League qualifying, Li Kang single-handedly scored four goals to bring Leverkusen back from the edge of elimination!"
"We can now hear the entire Bayer Arena shouting the name of the Dragon Kingdom!"
Leverkusen players made a mad dash to the bench.
Lift Li Kang high!
undoubtedly.
The mute dragonborn is the hero of the team!
Stands on all sides.
The fans also stood up and gave him the warmest applause.
Media reporters instinctively rushed to interview him.
But I realized that Leverkusen’s genius couldn’t speak.
Van Gaal's face was livid, and he shook hands with Old Man Top in displeasure.
He looked at the Dragonborn's back in the distance.
I don't know what I'm thinking about.
at the same time.
A piece of news shocked the whole of North Rhine.
"Leverkusen's talented midfielder refuses to be repurchased by Barcelona!"
In the eyes of ordinary fans.
In recent years, Barcelona has become a super-rich club at the height of its power.
The top three dream teams no longer have dominance as Harvey ages.
But the MSN Trident still scares the European powers.
Messi, Neymar, and Suarez, three historical strikers, have propped up Barcelona's post-Dream III era!
This is simply a wealthy club that ordinary players dream of joining!
The Leverkusen fans in front of the TV found it difficult to digest the amount of information brought by this news.
"Li Kang actually rejected Barcelona?"
"He refused the championship! He refused the honor! He chose to stay in Leverkusen!"
"Our hero! Not the second Cesc Fabregas!"
moment.
The last haze in the hearts of the fans has been swept away!
Dragon Kingdom.
The news that Leverkusen eliminated Manchester United did not receive much traffic.
The news that Li Kang refused to return to Barcelona made headlines in major football media.
"Sporting Director Robert: Barcelona will wait for the return of every child!"
"The abandoned son of a wealthy family who shines in the Bundesliga does not want to go home!"
"Would anyone in the world reject Barcelona? Messi was shocked!"
The number of likes, comments and retweets soared.
-
[What a pity, if Li Kang goes back to Barcelona, I will buy his jersey! He doesn’t know how to plan his career! It would be great to return to Barcelona, where he can win the championship just by lying on the bench!]
-
[I think Li Kang has no chance even if he returns to Barcelona because his acting skills are not good!]
-
[Messi is shocked? What kind of messy title is this!]
-
[Following fans, Real Madrid fans said: They admire this kind of talented young player who does not seek strength the most!]
-
[Chelsea fans expressed their praise!]
-
[You said, if Leverkusen meets Barcelona in the Champions League]
North Rhine.
The Leverkusen team returned to the training base.
Old Man Top's face was full of spring breeze.
He announced a day off for all players!
Everyone cheered.
Assistant coach Dino also shouted.
Top patted his head: "Why are you happy? Our coaching staff still needs to conduct a game review meeting!"
The players laughed.
They didn't play very hard in this game.
Especially in the first half, Li Kang's early dominance of passing and controlling in the midfield and backcourt prevented his teammates from sweating much at all.
After the coaching staff leaves.
Captain Bender suddenly said: "Go to my house for a drink! It's still very early!"
This guy is a rich second generation.
When he came to Leverkusen from Munich 1860 in 2009, his family bought him a large villa in a wealthy area.
Son Heung-min hesitated and said: "My dad doesn't let me drink."
Kramer said: "Bender can call out a lot of white chicks on magazine covers."
Sun Xingmin quickly picked up his mobile phone from his backpack and dialed the number: "Dad, I will go home after practicing at the club!"
He seems very honest.
In fact, he was secretly photographed by paparazzi in nightclubs many times.
Bender put his arm around Li Kang and Brandt's shoulders and said with a smile: "You two are underage and can drink mineral water!"
Brandt pushed him away unhappily and said, "Who are you looking down on? I'm 19 years old!"
Li Kang smiled. It seems that there are still a few players who are extremely self-disciplined.
Eleven o'clock in the evening.
Li Kang carried the drunk Brandt back to the first team dormitory.
He didn't drink.
After all, if you don't have a system, you are a waste.
Talent determines the upper limit.
Self-discipline determines the lower limit.
Two security guards quickly picked up Brandt.
The two said nervously:
"Li, you should take a rest as soon as possible. If you practice extra, our wages will be deducted."
"Yes, the physical trainer said your testosterone level"
Li Kang smiled and returned to his dormitory.
The system prompt sounds quietly:
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission: qualifying for the Champions League!]
[Personal evaluation: SSS!]
[Task rewards are being distributed]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: Platinum Treasure Chest! 】
Even though he didn’t play the entire game, is his personal evaluation still that high?
The Injury and Injury Immunity Constitution Module has proven that it is produced from Platinum Treasure Box and must be a top-quality product!
Li Kang couldn't help but look forward to it.
He didn't look at the prize pool this time.
[Platinum treasure chest is opening]
[Congratulations to the host for getting: Double Foot Balance Module! 】
[Additional attribute improvements: Speed increased by 2%, ball control increased by 2%, shooting increased by 2%, jumping increased by 2%! Body contact increased by 2%! 】
The treasure chest suspended in mid-air suddenly opened.
A burst of white light enveloped Li Kang's right foot.
No pain or strangeness at all.
After a while.
The white light dispersed.
Li Kang lightly stamped his right foot.
I instantly understood why this module would bring about improvements in multiple attributes!
European football today.
The most exaggerated player with two-foot balance is Arsenal's Cazorla.
Even the then head coach Wenger commented: "I really can't tell whether his dominant foot is left or right."
He is the underrated Spanish midfield maestro.
The indistinguishable left and right feet make his ball control, passing and shooting full of unpredictability!
On the defensive end, he can easily switch his center of gravity, maintain body balance, and use his weak and short body to block strong bulldozer players!
He said in the interview: "I have been able to use my feet skillfully and freely since I was a child, without any deliberate training."
in short.
For top players, this is a super talent.
A female football player in the history of the Dragon Kingdom also possesses this talent.
Even if the meniscus is removed.
She still won numerous honors.
She was evaluated by foreign media as "Maradona in a skirt."
Top scorer in the 1999 World Cup.
The best female football player of the 20th century.
Miss Football of the Century.
Early next morning.
Old Man Top hurriedly found Li Kang who was training.
Dino quickly handed over a set of clothes.
"You kid came to the training ground on vacation! We've been looking for you for a long time!"
"Hurry up and put on your suit! You are now the player representative of Leverkusen! Let's go to Monaco!"
"Yes! Participate in the Champions League group stage draw ceremony!"
Everything seemed rushed.
Leverkusen only entered the Champions League yesterday.
Voller only found out this morning that the club’s player representative is: Calhanoglu?
He quickly changed it to Li Kang's name with a stroke of his pen.
Three hours later.
Monte Carlo International Airport.
The three of them walked out of the airport pick-up port.
Woller looked at Li Kang and praised: "Not bad, it fits very well. It looks so much like me when I was young! If you can grow a mustache again!"
Old Man Top curled his lips: "Oh God! When you were young."
I haven't finished my rants yet.
Fans on both sides of the cordon rushed forward crazily!
This formation is obviously not welcoming to them!
Li Kang just wanted to look back.
Woller pulled him and quickly walked out of the airport.
"Let's go quickly! Our third-tier team has no right to be late!"
"It's second gear!"
Old Man Top corrected.
The three of them quickly got into the commercial vehicle prepared by UEFA.
Screams like a landslide and tsunami came from outside the car.
"Cristiano!!!"
"Cristiano!!!"
"Cristiano!!!"
Through the car window, Li Kang first saw a tall figure wearing a blue suit!
Security personnel worked hard to keep back the crazy fans.
Immediately afterwards.
One by one, the stars walked out of the airport.
Azar.
Pogba.
Ibrahimovic.
Robben.
David Silva.
Longguo Live Room.
The fans were a little excited when they saw this scene.

【What a star-studded Champions League!】
-
[Don’t count, it should be a Champions League that connects the past with the future! With both Xavi and Pirlo leaving the Champions League stage, a large group of little monsters have begun to emerge! 】
-
[I’m optimistic about Roma’s Pjanic!]
-
[Atletico Madrid’s Koke also has great potential!]
-
[Can Juventus revenge Barcelona this year?]
Old Man Top murmured: "What a coincidence, everyone arrived in Montecatello together!"
Woller looked at Li Kang and said with a smile: "In the near future, you will also become a bright star."
"Brighter than them."
