Young Football Player

Before going on the field, Li Chenglong was still confidently thinking about how to attack and how to show his strength.

But after playing, he found that he did most of his defense.

Although Liverpool didn't make the most of the main force, after all, they already had enough advantages in the first round, and their desire to attack was not particularly strong, but Dundee United was still too weak, only tired of defending.

In the 47th minute, the opponent's new aid Joe Cole broke through with the ball, and Li Chenglong had to run back to defend.

In the 53rd minute, Gerrard and Lucas cooperated in passing consecutively in the midfield, and Li Chenglong had to do the job of defending the midfield again, intercepting and interfering with the opponent's pass.

After dawdling for more than ten minutes like this, Li Chenglong got the ball on the offensive end for the first time in the 64th minute.

Lucas' long-range shot from the outside of the penalty area was blocked, and Armstrong happened to get the ball nearby, and he made a diagonal pass directly to Li Chenglong's spot.

"Armstrong made a diagonal pass to find Lee. This is a cooperation between two young players, but it seems that the pass is a bit big?" Mortenson began to explain when he saw that Dundee United finally had an offensive opportunity in the second half.

Armstrong's pass is indeed a bit big. In fact, it can be seen from his previous performance that although this guy is one year older than Jackie Lee, he is a bit stage fright. After all, this is Anfield.

His pass was entirely out of safety considerations. He only wanted to avoid the interception of the players who avoided the interception. He didn't even think about whether Li Chenglong could catch it.

But Li Chenglong waited for so long just to wait for an opportunity. He was already ready. The moment the opponent passed the ball, Li Chenglong started to accelerate and successfully grabbed the ball before the opposite Spaniard Pacheco.

Taking advantage of the opponent's back to the goal and the convenience of facing the goal, Li Chenglong passed the opponent with one quick pass.

"Bruce Lee, he passed by. The pass just now was just right. It seems that there is a perfect understanding between these two young people." Mortensen obviously didn't know that Lee Chenglong had only joined this team for more than a week, so where did he come from? Perfect understanding?

Pushing past Pacheco, Liverpool full-back Martin Kelly was soon oncoming.

Looking at this full-back with a height of 190 centimeters, Li Chenglong felt that it should not be difficult for him to pass the opponent with only 175 centimeters.

Sure enough, Li Chenglong simply made two fake moves relying on his flexibility, and the opponent began to lose his center of gravity, and Li Chenglong easily passed another person.

"Bruce Lee, this young guy, passed two people in a row, and Liverpool's defense seemed to be unable to stop him."

Li Chenglong dribbled the ball to the vicinity of the corner flag area, raised his leg after making some adjustments, and made a high pass.

In front of the goal in the middle, Dundee United's Irish high center Joan Daly leaped high, but under the interference of Carragher, he pushed a rocket into the sky and failed to pose a threat at all.

"Shit!" Peter Huston cursed on the sidelines. Liverpool will never give too many opportunities like this. If they failed to seize this time, they don't know when the next time will be, and they don't even know that there is another chance. can not happen next time.

However, he still encouraged loudly on the sidelines: "Good job, keep playing like this!!"

"As a striker, if you can't guarantee that your shot is a threat when you face a defender one-on-one, you are definitely not qualified." Mortensen began to comment on the attack just now.

"But Dundee United's young player Bruce Lee performed quite well. He successfully tested Liverpool's defense and also highlighted Liverpool's defense problems."

"Kelly played as a central defender when he was in the Liverpool youth team, but after entering the first team, because the team lacked a good left-back, Hodgson actually arranged for him to play as a left-back. This is definitely a huge hidden danger for Liverpool's defense. 190 The centimeter Kelly faced those wide players who broke through with sharp feet and flexible feet,

There is simply no way to know what to do. "

Houston on the sidelines was still regretting that he failed to score in the attack just now. Soon after 5 minutes, Lee Chenglong created another chance.

Armstrong saw the effect of the pass to Li Chenglong just now, so he took the initiative to cooperate with Li Chenglong after taking the ball again, and succeeded in a two-for-one cooperation, allowing Li Chenglong to win the one-on-one with Martin Kelly again. Chance.

As a result, Lee Chenglong passed the opponent with his nimble footsteps again, and made a cross before the rest of Liverpool came to defend.

The quality of the cross was not bad, but it was a pity that Dundee United failed to compete for the top again. The Slovakian Skrtel won the first place for Liverpool to ensure the safety of his goal.

"The 17-year-old from Dundee United performed brilliantly after making two consecutive crosses from the wing."

"I just checked the information. The opponent is from the Crystal Palace youth training camp. He was only loaned to Dundee United this summer. This game is actually the first game of his career, which is very surprising."

"I don't know why Crystal Palace loaned him to Scotland, but based on his performance just now, I believe he is fully capable of gaining a foothold in the Championship."

Mortensen is still praising Jackie Lee, but the situation on the pitch has turned against him.

After being passed by a 17-year-old teenager who was obviously put on leveling, this made the Liverpool head coach Hodgson, who had just taken office this summer, very unhappy. He began to scold his 20-year-old teenager Martin on the sidelines. Kelly.

Liverpool vice-captain Carragher began to come to comfort Kelly, and then pulled the other party to talk, and then Li Chenglong's life was difficult.

Li Chenglong found that as soon as he got the ball, the opponent rushed up and knocked him down in those relatively safe positions. He could no longer break through the opponent after taking the ball as easily as before.

Obviously, Carragher gave his little brother a trick and asked him to use his physical advantage to bully Jackie Lee.

Li Chenglong's height of 175 centimeters makes him more flexible. He can easily break through when facing Kelly, who is 190 centimeters, but the opponent's weight of up to 90 kilograms is also the advantage of the opponent. This makes Li Chenglong, who is only in his early 60 kilograms, unable to carry the opponent.

"It seems that Kelly has found a way to deal with this little guy. It is obvious that Lee's body is too thin to carry people at all."

"However, based on just a few performances just now, I believe that Bruce Lee has a good future. He is very talented on the wing. As long as he is older and stronger, we definitely have a chance Saw him in the Premier League."

Mortensen's words can be regarded as the concluding remarks for Li Chenglong. Martin Kelly has just been humiliated twice in a row. There is no way.

But when the game was about to end, Li Chenglong saw a chance again.

Dundee United does not have a good offensive method here, and can only carry out the most primitive long pass.

In the 86th minute, the full-back Sean Dillon took the ball and made a long pass to the forward center Joan Daly. The two are both Irish and have a certain tacit understanding.

Joan Daly got stuck first in the header, so that Liverpool full-back Glenn Johnson had no choice but to foul directly. Dundee United won a free kick in the frontcourt.

"Dundee United got a free kick from the left side of the front court, 34 meters away from the goal, a little far away, and the position is also a little closer to the wing. It doesn't look like a big threat."

Dundee United's original first choice for free kicks was midfielder Scott Robertson, but he is now off the field. Both Armstrong and striker Goodwell can play on the court at present, but Li Chenglong feels that he can also play.

After Li Chenglong lit the Beckham card, he has been practicing free kicks. Although the card fusion rate has not increased rapidly, and it is only 21% until now, he feels that his free kick level is already good. At least it is more reliable than Armstrong and Goodwell.

"How about I kick it?" Li Chenglong took the initiative to step forward and asked about the right to take the penalty.

It's a pity that none of the two who were already standing in front of the ball had any intention of backing down.

Generally speaking, in the absence of the first penalty shooter, either the players on the field will discuss who will take the penalty, or the head coach will directly designate.

"Bruce, let Bruce come!" The voice of the head coach on the sidelines finally made the two back away.

Li Chenglong knew that after he came to Dundee United, he practiced extra free kicks almost every day and left a good impression on the head coach. Besides, during the extra training, he tried his best to let the coaching staff see that he practiced.

"Dundee United's young player Bruce Lee stood in front of the ball. Could it be that he was asked to take the penalty?" Mortensen was also surprised that it was Jackie Lee who took the free kick.

"His breakthrough from the side has already left a very good impression on people. If he can take another free kick, he definitely has the potential to become a top wide player."

"Of course, this may also be a tactical free kick. After all, Bruce Lee has shown a good level of crossing before."
