Chapter 175 The Game Begins

Compared to the coaching staff's worries, Li Qingshan didn't think too much.

After he made a few phone calls to a few familiar teammates of Atletico Madrid at the hotel, he chatted with Tian Shaohua who was still studying at the University of Madrid for a while, and then went to bed.

On the day of the game, Atletico Madrid's home court, the Calderon Stadium, was packed.

In the televised footage, a sign held by a young Atlético Madrid fan caught the camera's attention.

"Welcome back, Lee!"

This is a small cardboard with Chinese writing on the top and Spanish on the bottom.

"It seems that Li Qingshan is still in the hearts of Atlético Madrid fans." Duan Xuan said when he saw the live broadcast on the CCTV sports channel.

Although Li Qingshan did not stay in Atletico Madrid for long, only one and a half seasons, the records he created will always be engraved in the history of Atletico Madrid, especially the Champions League trophy, which is Madrid The only Champions League trophy since the establishment of the Atletico Madrid team. All the players of that season will not be forgotten by Atletico Madrid fans.

The weather in Madrid is very good today, and the temperature is quite suitable for sports competitions.

Calderon was full of voices, and everyone was waiting for the game to start.

Players from both sides stand in the player channel, waiting in line to play.

Taking advantage of this free time, Li Qingshan greeted his former Atletico Madrid teammates.

When the theme song of the UEFA Champions League sounded, the players from both sides walked out of the player tunnel and onto the pitch under the leadership of the referee team.

"The game is about to start!!!!" The commentator Duan Xuan raised his voice and shouted excitedly.

All the fans are also in high spirits, ready to watch this Champions League semi-final match!
After all the pre-match ceremonies are over, the players on both sides return to their respective positions and wait for the start of the game.

Manchester United got the right to kick-off. Compared with the right to pick a side, many teams actually pay more attention to the right to kick-off.Because the side that gets the ball first can control the football on its own side first and launch the attack first.

With the whistle of the referee, the game officially began.

Manchester United quickly drove the ball out, but did not rush to attack.

Li Qingshan kicked the ball back and passed it to Carrick. Herrera missed the game again due to muscle inflammation.

After receiving the ball from Li Qingshan, Carrick did not pass the football forward, but turned around and passed the ball to Fellaini next to him.

Fellaini was passing back to Carrick, and the football fell for a while in the second half of Manchester United. It slowly passed to the feet of several defensive players in the backcourt. Even goalkeeper De Gea touched the ball a few times. .

Atlético Madrid's players also slowly pressed up, ready to carry out their best high press.

Manchester United didn't dare to neglect when they saw Atletico Madrid's players come up.

Mandzukic went all the way into Manchester United's penalty area, and De Gea didn't wait for him to rush up, and passed the ball to Sandro who responded from the wing.

Sandro didn't wait for Atletico Madrid's players to post it, and passed the ball.

In the middle is the central defender Hummels.As soon as Hummels received the ball, midfielder Saul came up.

Hummels didn't dare to be negligent, his teammates on the left and right were watched by Atletico Madrid players, and he didn't dare to continue to pass in the backcourt. He probably looked at Li Qingshan's position and then passed forward.

As soon as Li Qingshan took the ball down, the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands became nervous.

The Atlético Madrid players were also very nervous on the field, and the two new central defenders Jimenez and Saqi quickly posted up.

Just as Li Qingshan stopped the ball, Gabi, who had already been eyeing him, rushed up from the side and broke the ball from Li Qingshan's feet.

Then Gaby dribbled the ball forward, Cork responded from the wing, and Gabi passed the ball to Cork.

Saul received a pass from Cork on the right side of the penalty area, then cut inside and passed the ball to Torres in the penalty area. Torres turned and shot was blocked by Hummels with his foot, and then ambushed outside the penalty area. Griezmann followed up with a kick and kicked the ball away.

Two consecutive shots failed to form a goal, which made the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands sigh with regret.

And Ancelotti on the sidelines also stood up a little nervously. Atletico Madrid's pressing force at their home court is indeed quite dangerous.

Atletico Madrid made two shots, and Manchester United immediately organized an attack when they recovered.

Carrick and Mata pushed the ball across half-court, Carrick moved the ball to the left and Di Maria received it.

Luis Felipe came up to defend Di Maria, but Di Maria did not intend to pass him. Li Qingshan pulled out from the penalty area. After Di Maria passed the ball to Li Qingshan, he immediately ran towards the baseline, and Li Qingshan also Without stopping the ball, the ball was stuffed in the first place.

The two completed a two over one.

After receiving the ball, Di Maria immediately dribbled the ball into the penalty area, attracting Jimenez's attention, but Di Maria did not shoot, but chose an inverted triangle pass back to the penalty area.

Li Qingshan rushed up and shot directly, but still failed to test Oblak. The central defender Saqi blocked the ball with his leg, and then Oblak easily won the ball.

Atlético Madrid fans were relieved that Li Qingshan's shot missed the goal.

After Oblak set the ball up, he kicked it to Juanfran.

For Atletico Madrid, the most important task of this game is to win Manchester United at home, while ensuring that they do not concede a goal.In this way, Atletico Madrid can have an advantage in the second round.

Old Trafford is not an easy away game.

Atletico Madrid patiently passed the ball a few times in the midfield, but Manchester United's defense was well organized, and Atletico Madrid didn't have a good way to attack the positional battle for a while.

"Manchester United is very cautious in the away game. When Calderon faces Atletico Madrid, they need to be more cautious." Duan Xuan said.

After a pass in the middle without finding any opportunities, Atletico Madrid developed the ball to the side.

After Cork received the ball from the wing, he passed the ball to Luis Felipe who came up from the edge.

After Luis Felipe put it on, he made a cross from the wing.

Rojo cleared the ball in the middle, but the outside point is still controlled by Atletico Madrid. Saul completed a shot from outside the penalty area.

However, this shot did not pose any threat to Manchester United, flying high over the crossbar.De Gea didn't do anything - it was completely unnecessary.

Although there was no goal and no threat, the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands of the Calderon Stadium were still very excited and cheered continuously.
