The sweeping army of the greenery

Chapter 13 League debut

The passive situation made Santini first make substitution adjustments. In the 70th minute, he replaced Jackson and Naibet with Atuba and Doherty at the same time.

Tottenham's substitution has just been completed. Edman made a long pass from the midfielder to the penalty area, Kanoute headed the ball, Defoe stopped the ball with his upper arm, and then shot with his left foot. The football went straight into the near corner!

1:1, Tottenham equalized the score.

"It's luck, the score was equalized just after the substitution."

Li Tiancheng frowned, watching Carragher and the others flap their arms and complain to the referee.

Although the referee's eyes are indeed questionable, in the defense just now, Carragher's failure to grab the first point was the fatal mistake.

Defoe was very excited after scoring the goal. He ran and undressed in one go, and of course he didn't worry about getting a yellow card.

Angered by the conceded goal, Liverpool immediately launched a counterattack.

In the 74th minute, Harman hit Davis with a long shot and popped out of the bottom line.

Finnan took a corner, Carragher jumped high and headed the goal, and Tottenham goalkeeper Robinson flew the ball over the bar.

"The shame was almost washed away." Li Tiancheng expressed his satisfaction that he was right.

At this time, Benitez asked for a substitution, and Li Tiancheng replaced Finnan.

Benitez is succinct: Connect with Gerrard and strengthen the impact on the penalty area!

Li Tiancheng understood in seconds.

"Liverpool asked for a substitution, wow, Benitez is very courageous." Sky Sports commentator Dan O'Hagan immediately saw the substitution sign erected on the sidelines:
"Li replaced Finnan, and replaced a pure rookie when the situation was stalemate. Did Benitez give up the game?"

"Benitez said that Lee is a genius no less than Rooney, and he has the ability to change the game." Ian Rush also didn't understand Benitez's approach, but as a veteran of Liverpool, he only had one position.

"Well, I still can't understand what Benitez said, even though Lee was doing well in the youth game," challenged Dan O'Hagan:

"In the international youth group competition, it is not uncommon for Chinese children to perform well, but they have nothing to do as adults. The most successful Chinese player is Manchester City's grandson, a player who relies on hard work to gain a foothold in the middle and lower teams. Can the country really produce a world-class star?"

"The substitution has been completed, we will wait and see." Ian Rush lacked confidence.

Immediately after Li Tiancheng entered the field, he started running all over the field.

Close to the middle, retreated to receive Gerrard's pass, used his turn to dodge Atuba who slammed into him, and then immediately accelerated to dribble the ball.

After discovering that Tottenham's defensive center of gravity had been tilted towards him, Li Tiancheng aimed a long pass to the left front, but he continued to attack to the right front.

Kewell accelerated forward, successfully received the pass, continued to take two steps forward, and kicked the pass.

Pangler headed the ball high under the defense of Ledley King!
Li Tiancheng looked at the defensive players attracted by him, the empty top of the penalty area and Gerrard who was already in place, and controlled himself to shout: This is not La Masia, it is not your team, you just new guy...

Reminding himself over and over again, his face turned red, seeing Gerrard just spread his hands to Kewell, Li Tiancheng rolled his eyes, retreated back, and prepared to defend: Steven is too good-tempered...

The football didn't come to his side, Li Tiancheng didn't dare to be careless, he paid attention to the distance between him and his teammates, and filled up his position at any time to avoid obvious loopholes.

Suddenly he staggered, and before he regained his footing, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Riise had successfully intercepted the ball. Regardless of who bumped into him for no reason just now, Li Tiancheng turned around and moved forward...

Running sideways, his head is still scanning the surroundings: it should be Atuba who bumped into him just now, does this mean he felt ashamed of being easily dodged by him?This guy is really worthless!

The thought flashed away, noticing that Gerrard was leading the ball forward, Li Tiancheng approached again to respond.

After receiving the pass, Li Tiancheng noticed that the defensive formation in the middle was relatively thick, so Li Tiancheng swung his right foot and chose to go outside.

Faced with Ricketts and Ifel's interception, Li Tiancheng swayed freely, his feet crossed the football alternately, and with a final kick, his body leaned to the right, and his right foot touched the football.

Ricketts and Ifel, who were already at a loss, quickly turned around. At this time, Li Tiancheng easily turned into a spike to the left.

Ifel tried to turn around with Li Tiancheng, his body twisted together, and he fell directly to the ground.

Ricketts had no time to turn back, and Li Tiancheng, who turned his head and watched helplessly, cut into the middle from behind.

Li Tiancheng, who was aggressive with the ball, clearly saw Pangler who inserted into the penalty area, Kewell who outflanked from the back point, Gerrard who inserted to the front of the penalty area again, and Riise and Harman who were one level behind: it is not the last good time...

Out of the corner of his eye, a figure with a shovel appeared, Li Tiancheng hurriedly pushed the ball onto Gerrard's path, and jumped up to avoid it...

Gerrard shot directly without stopping the ball, and the football hit the crossbar hard and popped out of the baseline.

It was too late to regret the narrow goal, so he hurriedly looked back. Li Tiancheng was curled up on the turf, clutching his feet and motionless. Gerrard felt his hair stand on end, and rushed towards the perpetrator...

"Wow, Gerrard's long-range shot from 25 hits the door frame, so unlucky!" Dan O'Hagan exclaimed exaggeratedly.

"The referee Dollah issued a yellow card to Doherty who caused the accident. This kind of punishment is condoning the crime. The side shovel also showed shoe spikes. This is a complete red card action!" Ian Rush sprayed relentlessly.

"Ian, you can't be too partial to Liverpool, at least Gerrard's pushing action just now has been exposed." O'Hagan disagreed: "And when we were playing, this action was not even considered a foul. , your little ones have to get used to it because the Premier League is that intensity."

"So, Dan," Rush said, squinting at his partner, "how do you think Lee has been doing this time?"

"It's okay, it looks a bit spiritual, at least Eiffel can't compare with him, but it's an exaggeration to say that he can match Rooney." O'Hagan insisted on his own opinion.

"My opinion is exactly the opposite. Lee is definitely the top talent, and he can never be inferior to Rooney."

"Then let's wait and see!"

With the support of the team doctor, Li Tiancheng stood up, stomped his feet, and walked a few steps. The pain subsided a lot, and there was nothing serious. Fortunately, he avoided it in time.

Very good, the lesson I taught myself this time was much deeper than watching so many videotapes, warm-up matches, and watching off the court.

Li Tiancheng smiled at Doherty: "Big brother, let me let you know what it means to report a grudge on the spot!"
Tottenham can't get through Liverpool's midfield at all, and the only way to attack is to direct long passes to find the striker.

This kind of attack only needs a strong guard, accurate judgment of the landing point, and strong fighting, and the efficiency is generally very low.

Seeing that Carragher won the battle with Kanoute, Li Tiancheng immediately turned back and went straight into the penalty area.
