i don't want to be king

Chapter 830 Yellow and Hard

In the previous free kick attack, only Bayi, the fastest of the three central defenders, stayed in the center line, and Valencia was not far from him on the right.

The team of Ali, Eriksson and Sun Xingmin quickly counterattacked and advanced, forming a three-on-two in an instant!

All the Red Devils fans in the stands screamed, and Mourinho waved and shouted for the players to chase back!
Several Manchester United players ran all the way from the frontcourt. However, the three counter-attackers of Tottenham all have both speed and foot skills. The ball has been pushed to the 30-meter area!
Sun Xingmin, who replaced Kane in this game, strode horizontally to the left side of the penalty area, and Valencia accelerated sideways and retreated along the inside line.

The captain of Manchester United was extremely concerned about Eriksson, who was advancing with the ball in the middle, so he had to give up the defense on the right, and Sun Xingmin ran out of an excellent line.

On the other side, Ali ran laterally to the right at the same time. Bayi faced the same pain as Valencia. He hesitated to leave the middle to Valencia and then began to cling to Ali.

Eriksson passed the ball to the left after Valencia approached him, and Sun Xingmin got the ball and accelerated towards the goal!

Valencia had no choice but to turn around and chase the opponent desperately. Sun Xingmin took another step and passed the ball back to the center of the penalty area with his left foot in an inverted triangle!

Bayi turned and rushed towards Eriksson, the Dane took a step with his left foot and shot——

De Gea was in an excellent position, and he quickly went down to the ground and blocked the ball out of the goal with his legs. The audience exclaimed--Ali is adjusting his footsteps and rushing to the ball's landing point!
Mourinho and Pochettino shouted at the same time: "Block him!"

"Shoot!"

The exclamation continued, and Li Liang was almost the first to turn around and run wildly when Sissoko launched a counterattack.

He clearly saw the running positions of the three opponents and the retreat route of Valencia and Bayi, and he sprinted without hesitation according to his first reaction.

Even though his speed is slightly inferior to that of Ali in the Tottenham trio, Manchester United's No. 7 still rushed to his own half without hesitation.

Li Liang was nearly 5 meters away from Ali when he saw Eriksson passing the ball to the left!
The efforts of Valencia, Bayi and De Gea brought Li Liang closer to Ali!

The young Tottenham midfielder started to run sideways to catch the ball, which gave Li Liang the last chance!

Ali began to adjust his footsteps, preparing to hit the rebound with his right foot. He did not intend to exert force. De Gea was still struggling to get up on the other side of the small penalty area line.

At the moment of hitting the ball, Ali heard the screams of his teammates and the louder roars in the stands——

With a muffled sound of "bang", the ball flipped and flew to the outside of the penalty area, flying out of the sideline——

Ali, who was tall, lost his balance, his body soared into the air, turned over and fell on the turf!

At the last moment, Li Liang shoveled across his body and blocked Ali's right foot shot with his body!

Eriksson, Sun Xingmin, and other Tottenham players rushing from the midfield all raised their arms and shouted: "Foul!"

"Penalty!"

"It's a red card!"

The Red Devils fans in the stands all stood up and shouted, "He's a liar!"

"diving!"

"Flip!"

Pochettino protested loudly to the fourth official, and Mourinho stepped forward and shouted: "This is a clean defense, no problem!"

Without any hesitation, the referee waved his hand to signal the attacking side to take the ball from the sideline-he believed that Manchester United No. 7 had just completed a successful defensive action.

Li Liang got up, and a thunderous roar of "Li! Li! Li!" sounded from the stands.

Tang Meng was very excited: "Li Liang countered Ali's opening tackle with action!

In front of Tottenham's muscular clubs, Li Liang is not bad at all! "

Lu Yue laughed: "Yeah, Li Liang is not bad at all compared to those 'black and hard' players from Manchester United and Tottenham on the pitch!"

Mourinho spread his hands towards Pochettino: "Mauricio, am I right?!"

Li Liang leaned over and stretched out his hand to Ali, the young England international swore angrily and waved Li Liang's hand open!
Jones stepped forward and cursed: "What the hell are you trying to do?!"

Li Liang stopped Jones: "Phil, they are going to attack!"

He continued to run to his position, secretly surprised.

It's completely different from CSKA. Facing Tottenham, who also played against Tottenham twice last season, several opponents, including Ali and Eriksson, became significantly faster!
If it wasn't for Ali's long adjustment time before shooting, Li Liang thought that his tackle would have no effect.

And this is when Tottenham's top scorer Kane is absent!
Li Liang is convinced that the goal of this group of powerful opponents is definitely not just to take away 1 point in the Theater of Dreams.

Eriksson put his arms around Ali: "Dele, we have to go faster!"

Captain Lloris warned the defenders: "We have to be more careful, which guy looks much tougher than last season!"

Dell and Vertonghen have personal experience, and Aurier, who was still playing for Paris last season, also echoed: "Lee is a time bomb. Compared with what I have seen, he has not reached half of it yet." at its best!"

The "Song of Li" has lasted for a long time, Henry said with emotion: "When I first saw this guy a year and a half ago, frankly I didn't think he could play the main force in any team in the British Championship.

At that time, Li was thin and weak, and he was not even good at running around..."

Carragher asked in surprise: "Then how did Patrick (Vieira) take a fancy to him, and as far as I know, several Premier League clubs have sent invitations to him?"

Henry said: "At that moment, he was like the tackle just now, the word 'give up' never seemed to be in the dictionary.

Of course, he still had a beautiful free kick at that time, and he could always make some unexpected tricks in the game! "

In the 17th minute of the first half, Li Liang got rid of the defense of Tottenham's English teenager Winks in the frontcourt and then made a wonderful pass to Lukaku.

Li Liang picked up the ball and ran towards the corner area. All the Red Devils fans in the nearby stands stood up, stretched out their arms and shouted "Wooo——".

The direct attack from the corner kick against Leicester City has always impressed everyone.

Mourinho yelled, "Lee!"

While shouting, he made a downward movement of both hands at the same time!
The meaning of Magic Bird is very clear. The opponent will definitely be wary of Li Liang's ability to shoot directly from a corner kick. He told Li Liang to keep calm and not take risks!
Li Liang placed the ball carefully and observed the situation in the penalty area from the corner of his eye.

Sure enough, as Magic Bird expected, Pochettino has been yelling in the command area to personally arrange the corner kick defense.

Under the command of Lloris, Aurier and Welsh international player-Davis guarded the goalposts at both ends, plus the players marking the opponent, Tottenham only left Sun Xingmin near the center circle, and the rest of the players returned to the penalty area defense.

Looking at the more and more excited home fans around him, Carragher asked in amazement: "This... is Li's power?!
Thierry, he's not really going to shoot from a corner anymore, is he? "
