Football career: From winning the championship to becoming a legend

Looking back at Manchester United's goal, it happened in the 33rd minute of the game. The visiting team, which had been controlling the situation through slow and leisurely passes, finally tore through the home team's defense through a change of rhythm.

After running half a circle, Li Qi first passed Carrick's through ball with his back to Rooney who had retreated very deep, and then he rushed forward at high speed and tried to cut back to the open space behind De Rossi who was following him like a shadow. This attracted the attention of Mex who was assisting in defense, and he was ready to work together with De Rossi to cut off this wall-like cooperation.

But unexpectedly, Li Qi's counter-cut was completely wishful thinking. Rooney looked up and did not blame Li Qi. Instead, he turned around and easily got rid of Aquilani, who was also deceived by Li Qi's exaggerated high-speed forward penetration and Rooney's careless eyes...

Now Pizarro could only come over to intercept Rooney's advance, while the latter decisively passed the ball.

So Scholes, who was participating in the Champions League for the 99th time, took the ball to the left edge of Roma's penalty area without being marked, and then accurately passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area...

Ronaldo, who came in from behind, got in front of Cassetti, jumped high, and like a dunk in a basketball game, he headed the ball hard from 8 meters in front of the goal, and the ball slammed into the lower left corner of the Roma goal!

Roma goalkeeper Doni had no reaction. After all, the cross was intercepted from close range, and it was another violent header that exceeded the limit of human reaction...

于是C罗在本赛季第8场欧冠的第7球，帮助曼联1比0在客场领先于罗马！而C罗的赛季总进球数也增加到了37球。

In addition to participating in the first kick of this goal, Li Qi can be said to have been at the best observation point with De Rossi and Mex to observe the entire process of Ronaldo's violent and aesthetic goal.

However, to say that Li Qi had no help or contribution to this goal would be really unfair to Li Qi.

As early as the moment of passing the flash point, when Li Qi observed Scholes winking at Rooney who had already retreated, asking the latter to urgently retreat deep to support, he knew that the ginger-headed brother must be trying to make trouble.

Although Li Qi, who had been sold to De Rossi by his teammates, was not in Scholes' plan, Li Qi, through his own observation and excellent game reading ability, roughly guessed the route that Brother Paul wanted to take...

That's why he made that exaggerated high-speed counter-cut after the ball was passed, deliberately attracting the attention of Roma's defense. After all, anyone running forward at full speed in the midfield will make the opponent's defenders nervous.

Moreover, Li Qi did not return to his position after making a forward run, and deliberately made physical contact with Mex, always trying to get a position at the edge of the penalty area. It seemed as if Scholes's pass would be passed to the top of the penalty area for Li Qi to volley long shots...

But Mexes really believed it, and by the way he blocked the return routes of De Rossi and Aquilani, and gave up the precious passage to Ronaldo who sneaked into the middle of the penalty area and made a stunning slam dunk!

It was cool, but it was Ronaldo who was happy! Scholes and Rooney would probably feel a little happy too. Only Li Qi became the man who silently contributed behind Ronaldo, and became a background board, and he couldn't even be photographed in a close-up...

Not long after Ronaldo scored the goal, another accident happened on the field.

Vidic sprained his left knee when he landed after competing for a header with Vucinic. He fell to the ground with a very painful expression. The Belgian referee De Bleker quickly called in a stretcher.

Ferguson also called on the young Spanish player Pique to warm up quickly. Manchester United could only play with 10 men for the time being, so Roma, who were lagging behind, took the opportunity to speed up the offensive rhythm.

Li Qi, who had been invisible in the attack, temporarily returned to the defense line, allowing Wes Brown to fill the vacancy in the middle. However, Li Qi temporarily got rid of De Rossi's entanglement. After all, De Rossi would not run so far to mess with a right back.

However, the addition of Roma's strong midfield reinforcements suddenly put Manchester United's midfield under overall pressure.

Immediately afterwards, Roma had the opportunity to equalize the score in the 39th minute.

De Rossi passed the ball to Pizarro in the midfield, who made a long pass over the top into the Manchester United penalty area.

Vucinic chested the ball on the left side of Manchester United's penalty area, and his teammate Aquilani blocked the guest defender Li Qi who tried to make up for the defense, creating a rare shooting space for the former.

But Vucinic did not choose to shoot directly with his left foot 5 meters in front of the goal. Instead, he adjusted it unconfidently and faced Van der Sar with an awkward volley with the outside of his right foot...

Then the ball went wide of the far post and Manchester United escaped!

So Sir Alex quickly replaced O'Shea as right back and let Li Qi return to the front midfielder position to continue to attract De Rossi's firepower...

┌(?7?2?0?1?0?3?7?2)┐

MMP! Are you being polite to me like this?

Li Qi and Pique, who had just finished their emergency warm-up, complained in their hearts at the same time...

So when he returned to the locker room after the first half, Li Qi hooked up with his close CP De Mule to have a good chat, and the content was naturally to sell another good friend:

"Hey, Daniele, if you don't like Ronaldo, I won't say anything. Go back and have a good discussion with the midfield.

Look at me, I am just a mascot, not threatening at all. The one who just completed the key breakthrough and pass was the fat guy in red No. 10!

You keep an eye on him in the second half!

You have to believe me this time. If you don’t keep a close eye on him in the second half, you will definitely lose the second goal…”

@

In the second half, it was obvious that the Roma coach did not listen to the advice of the returning party. De Rossi continued to fight with Li Qi, but the lagging home team still stepped up their running and pressing in the frontcourt, hoping to equalize the score as soon as possible.

In the 49th minute, Pizarro made a diagonal pass in the middle, Vucinic passed it back on the left side of Manchester United's penalty area, and Tonetto's shot from 12 meters in front of the goal was slightly off the near post.

In the 51st minute, Roma quickly counterattacked, and Tonetto made a cross from the left. Although the pass was a bit embarrassing, it turned into a very threatening lob. Fortunately, Manchester United's Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar, who is 1 meters tall and has long arms, lifted the ball over the crossbar with one hand.

In the 53rd minute, Vucinic quickly threw the ball in from the right sideline, Mancini Jr. headed the ball, and Panucci volleyed it with his left foot from 7 meters away from the goal!

Roma missed a series of good chances...

When Spalletti saw that his team's morale was boosted but they were unable to score, he made an early substitution in the second half in the 57th minute.

Another old teammate of Li Qi came up, the short-legged brother Giuly, and replaced Taddei, a court observer who had performed almost as well as Li Qi throughout the game.

After Giuly came on the pitch, he immediately got a chance, but his deadly cross into the right corner of Manchester United's penalty area was intercepted by Van der Sar.

In the 62nd minute, Pizarro took a corner kick from the left, and Vucinic headed the ball from 8 meters in front of the goal, but Van der Sar subconsciously dived to the side and blocked it with one hand! Mex was ready to make a supplementary shot at the back point, but this time, Li Qi, who had not appeared for a long time, broke the clearance first.

One minute later, Pizarro took another corner kick from the left, and Mancini's right-footed shot from 1 meters behind the goal was blocked by Li Qi with his face and went out of the baseline...

(＃￣w￣)

"Hey, you idiot! The wish I made just now to show my face didn't mean to show my face in front of my own goal! If the situation continues like this, the goal I wanted might turn out to be an own goal..."

Not long after Li Qi finished complaining, Roma, who were confident in their offensive, exposed fatal problems in their defense and were caught by Manchester United.

This time, it was Rooney, who was sold to De Rossi by Li Qi before the end of the first half, who helped Manchester United expand their lead!
