Steve Gerrard was lying on the grass, looking at the searchlights above the stadium, and life seemed to flash before his eyes like a marquee.
At the beginning of his career, he won the glory of five championships with Liverpool.
Later in the Istanbul Miracle, he led the team to tenaciously equalize the score after falling behind 0:3, and finally completed an epic reversal to win the Champions League.
AC Milan has become the eternal background board, and"opening champagne at halftime" has been an enduring joke until 20 years later.
The opponents he has played against, from the initial Zidane, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Lampard, Scholes, Giggs, to the later Messi, Ronaldo, Modric, Aguero, Harry Kane... At the age of 34, he has reached the end of his career. Gerrard always believed that he could play for a few more years and play in Liverpool until he was 40 years old.
It was not until this game, seeing the performance of the young Chinese man, that Gerrard finally realized that he was really old.
"Hey, Steve, are you okay?"
Lin Mo's appearance interrupted Gerrard's flashback and pulled him back to the court.
Gerrard smiled self-deprecatingly and was pulled up by Lin Mo.
He wanted to thank Lin Mo, but when he looked up at the scoreboard, Gerrard couldn't say it.
3:0 home team Leicester City 3:0 Liverpool, the result of the game has been fixed.
All of this has to start with Leicester City's goal in the 9th minute.
It was this goal at the beginning that completely messed up Liverpool's pre-match preparations.
Before the game, head coach Brendan Rodgers was afraid of Lin Mo's penetration in the middle and arranged a crazy 4-waist lineup.
For two whole weeks, they have been practicing such tactics.
Gerrard, Lucas, Moreno, and Henderson, the four formed a diamond midfield, trying to completely freeze Lin Mo.
Unexpectedly, Lin Mo's running position today was extremely erratic. He did not control the ball as frequently as before, but instead gave more ball rights to Matty James.
This made Lin Mo His position is unpredictable, sometimes on the wing, sometimes in the middle.
Taking advantage of the confusion of Liverpool players, Lin Mo found an opportunity on the right, and with Mahrez's continuous passes, he broke into the penalty area and easily shot and scored.
Leicester City, who was leading, took the initiative to give up the ball and resolutely set up an iron bucket formation to play a defensive counterattack.
Liverpool was eager to attack and pressed forward.
Unfortunately, they had no good way to deal with the dense defense.
Coutinho, Sterling, and Lallana are not serious center forwards.
Liverpool's possession rate was as high as 90% at one point. They kept passing the ball left and right outside the 30-meter area, but they were never able to tear open a gap in Leicester City.
Whenever Gerrard and Henderson wanted to try a long shot, they were always unable to get past that man.
"Gerrard, try a shot outside the penalty area!!"
"Blocked by Lin Mo!!!"
"Henderson plans to take a long shot - it's Lin Mo again!!"
"……Sterling tried to break in from the ribs and do a bicycle kick! But his move was blocked!! Lin Mo didn't give him any chance at all!"
"This is the Great Wall of China! It completely blocked Liverpool's offensive attempts!"
Throughout the first half, the commentator mentioned Lin Mo frequently.
Similar scenes appeared again and again.
Leicester City's dense defense made it difficult for Liverpool to find opportunities, and the few dangers were resolved by Lin Mo.
Just when Liverpool was getting more and more anxious,
Lin Mo found an opportunity to counterattack and gave them a blow!
"In the injury time of the first half, Liverpool's team pressed hard but still could not score.……"
"Lin Mo! His tackle is still sharp! Sterling is intercepted!"
"Leicester City quickly counterattacked, Mahrez and Vardy were in the front court, Lin Mo got the ball, 3 vs 4…"
Gerrard had already found something wrong at that time.
Goalkeeper Mignolet was standing a little forward. When Lin Mo was near the center circle, there was no one within 5 meters!
Lucas, who was marking him, had no time to return to defense.
When he saw Lin Mo swinging his legs, it was too late for Gerrard to rush over to intercept!
Who would kick in the center circle normally?
Bang!
Gerrard seemed to hear the sound of anti-material sniper rifles firing, no, that sound was more like a tank gun!
The football passed in front of Gerrard and flew towards the goal in an instant with the whistling sound of the shells!
It was not an elevator ball, not a curve ball, but an unstoppable straight ball!
Turning his head, Mignolet reacted and wanted to run back to the goal, but it was too late.
He jumped up in vain to save the ball, but failed to touch the football!
"World wave!! Lin Mo once again contributed a super long-range heavy artillery that amazed everyone! Scored twice!"
Zhan Jun had completely forgotten his identity as a Liverpool fan at this time.
At this moment, he was completely a fan of Lin Mo!
The score was 2:0 in the first half.
Gerrard still remembered that when he returned to the locker room, he had never felt such a depressing and dull atmosphere.
Even the deepest foundation could not save the team's morale.
Even Istanbul's 0:3 was not so desperate.
Gerrard already knew that this game was probably gone.
Sure enough, in the second half, Leicester City's defense was still solid and the counterattack was still sharp.
If it weren't for Vardy's bad luck in the single shot, they would have lost 5:0!
Finally, in the 81st minute of the game, Lin Mo helped Liverpool's coffin and nailed it completely.
"After 20 minutes of siege, Leicester City found another great opportunity!"
"It was Lin Mo's steal again! Sterling was too sticky with the ball and was intercepted by Lin Mo again!"
"Mahrez dribbled the ball along the wing. He did not rush to sprint, but deliberately slowed down the pace to delay time... and waited for his teammates to advance!"
Attracting three people to double-team, Mahrez passed the ball to the middle from the crowd!
"Lin Mo rushed up! He received the ball in front of the penalty area... He picked up the ball and turned around! He passed Stecker! Beautiful!!"
Gerard thought Lin Mo was a simple player.
The pre-match video analysis showed that Lin Mo handled the ball in a simple and direct way most of the time.
But when Lin Mo used the signature move of the Ice Prince Bergkamp and elegantly passed the ball and broke into the penalty area,
Gerrard's cerebellum almost shrank.
【Rose Dribbling] Passively triggered, Lin Mo's fancy football skills caught Liverpool's defense off guard!
When he broke into the penalty area, it was too late for Kolo Toure and Lovren to intercept him.
There was no one guarding the penalty spot, and the goalkeeper was also attracted by Vardy's running position, leaving the goal half empty!
Lin Mo couldn't kick it in again, and his 72 shooting data was wasted!
Bang!
A burst shot broke through Liverpool's goal again!
"Hat trick!! Lin Mo's first hat trick in the Premier League!"
3:0! (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
This time it was the turn of Liverpool stars, and Gerrard was the background board.
He stood with his hands on his waist, helplessly watching Lin Mo rush to the corner flag area to slide and celebrate, or Lin Mo's signature elegant slide!
This ball also completely broke Gerrard's will, so that when the final whistle sounded, he couldn't help but lose strength in his legs and collapsed to the ground.
Even if Liverpool lost Suarez, they still have excellent players such as Coutinho and Sterling.
The lineup configuration is actually not too bad, at least the strength of the top 4 in the Premier League.
Unexpectedly, they were easily swept by the Chinese teenager in front of them, 3:0!
Looking at this score, Gerrard immediately had the idea of retiring........
His era has passed, now it belongs to Messi and Ronaldo, and the future... perhaps it will be the era of the Chinese people in front of us?
"Lin, can we exchange jerseys?"
"Of course."
Gerrard took Lin Mo's No. 24 jersey, shook hands with Lin Mo sincerely, and then turned to comfort his Liverpool teammates.
Lin Mo also got his first"trophy", Liverpool's legendary No. 8 jersey.
I still remember that I chose to play as a midfielder in football school, not a forward or a defender, mainly because I watched Gerrard's game and the most famous final reversal in the history of the Champions League.
He is not a Gerrard fan, but this spirit of not giving up impressed Lin Mo.
……[]
《Hat trick sweeps Liverpool! This Fox makes the Premier League tremble》
《Perfect performance! The magical young hero dominates the King Power Stadium!》
《Gerrard: He is the most promising player I have ever seen, and he will be on par with Melo in three years.
After the game, the English media, as always, hyped Lin Mo.
A hat trick against Liverpool was enough to make him a god for the English media.
However, Gerrard's remarks on Twitter still caused some controversy.
Over the years, there have been many"third men in the world" in football, such as
Rooney, Aguero, Bale, Suarez, Neymar...
None of them have been able to reach the level of being on par with Melo.
As the top twin stars, it is not so easy to touch porcelain with Melo.
Gerrard proposed this concept, which soon attracted some Messi and Ronaldo fans, and his Twitter was quickly attacked by a large number of fans.
"He is so far behind Messi! Three years? Five years is not enough to catch up!"
"Just a hat trick, and he wants to emulate Ronaldo? What championships has Lin won?���
"Gerrard was just being polite, why did you take it so seriously?"
However, soon fans of Leicester City and Lin Mo stood up to agree with Gerrard.
"I think G8 is right, Lin is indeed a phenomenal player"
"He might have a chance to become the third person."
"Leicester City is still too small, Lin needs to show himself on the stage of a giant club"
"Lin is definitely capable of competing with Messi and Ronaldo. Isn't his performance of 5.4 this season enough?"
This week's best goal was Lin Mo's long-range heavy artillery in the first half.
Lin Mo has been selected as the best goal countless times. This year's Puskas Award selection is likely to be monopolized by Lin Mo again.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lin Mo's growth rate is simply terrifying.
It is not a fantasy to be on par with Messi and Ronaldo in three years!
This controversy quickly spread on Twitter and spread to the entire network.
Even TV programs are discussing this issue.
In the Premier League's"Today's Match" program, the host Lineker and guests Gary Neville and Carragher discussed this issue for half an hour.
Gary Neville and Carragher, who have always been incompatible, showed amazing consistency for the first time
"As long as you watch Lin's games since last season, you will be surprised at how fast he has grown. This hat trick is enough to prove that he has completely adapted to the Premier League. I am afraid that ordinary games can no longer allow him to exert his full strength."
"Yes, as a former Liverpool player, I have to admit that Lin Mo completely dominated the game today. 3:0 is not Lin Mo's limit, it was already considered a mercy. Liverpool's loss was not unfair at all."
Carragher was helpless:"In three years, Lin will be able to reach the level of Melo. Wait and see, he will definitely appear in the Champions League next season, and then we will see him and Melo face off!"
