Full-level pass, please call me the speaker of the Three Lions

Chapter 408: The lore against Liverpool! The first hat trick!

"Ling Feng is over!"

"Three on three in the frontcourt!"

As Ling Feng passed Milner, Manchester United had formed a three-on-three situation in the frontcourt.

In the penalty area, two central defenders, Matip and Lovren, stuck closely to Ibrahimovic.

On the right, Klein chased back but was slightly behind Lingard who was making a forward run.

Such a situation is extremely favorable for Manchester United!
Everyone thought that Ling Feng would once again make a high pass to find the "Swedish God Tower" Ibrahimovic in the penalty area.

Including Ibrahimovic.

However, only Ling Feng saw the most deadly and most reasonable passing route!

He did make a high cross with this shot.

However, the ball was not aimed at Ibrahimovic, but flew over the heads of Ibrahimovic and Matip and arrived at the back area of ​​the goal!
Lingard, who was running forward frantically from the back, did not disappoint Ling Feng's trust. He used his chest to stop the ball in front of himself.

In front of him, the only one left was Karius standing on the goal line with his legs slightly bent and arms outstretched!
"Lingard gets the ball at the back post!"

"Single sword!"

If the idea of ​​becoming the key to winning the game before coming on as a substitute was just his vision of a better future.

He never thought that his dream would become reality!
When the chance to win the game was really in front of him, and it was in such a crucial match as the Red Devils Derby!
Lingard was also a little bit unbelievable:
Could this be the key moment when he became famous, firmly established as a starter and became a star? !
Perhaps it was because his inner thoughts were a little complicated that gave the defensive players time to react.

At this critical moment, Lovren, who pounced forward, got hot-headed and made a flying tackle.

Lingard, who was planning to shoot, only had time to block the ball with his foot.

The next second, accompanied by a shrill scream, Lingard was knocked to the ground with the ball by Lovren.

This scene also made the surrounding Manchester United players immediately raise their hands and frantically signal to the referee:
"Hey!"

"foul!"

"Penalty kick!"

Anthony Taylor, who was not far outside the penalty area, hesitated for a moment, then blew the whistle in his hand!
Then he raised his hand and pointed to the penalty spot!

Foul in the penalty area!
Penalty kick!

Seeing this, the home team fans in the stands suddenly turned into a sea of ​​red anger.

"Shit referee!"

"He didn't commit a foul! He kicked the ball first!"

"Oh my god! The stupid FA are fixing the games again!"

Even though the replay of the foul had already started playing on the big screen during the game, and it could be clearly seen in the slow-motion footage that Lovren first kicked Lingard's foot and then kicked the ball away.

Even if the foul is indisputable.

But the fans still booed loudly to express their protest and dissatisfaction with the referee's decision.

Because they know very well that awarding a penalty to the opponent in the final stoppage time would be fatal!
As long as they score, Manchester United will overtake the score again and even win the Manchester derby!
Like the fans, Liverpool players surrounded the referee to explain and protest to him.

However, Anthony Taylor was resolute.

"It's a penalty without a doubt!"

In fact, he didn't really want to award this penalty.

After all, at this point in time, the penalty kick may very likely be the key to the outcome of the game.

However, this foul was too obvious and too low-level.

He had to blow!
Moreover, the task assigned by the higher-ups is to make the game more exciting, not more controversial.

If I hadn't called this very obvious penalty, it would have definitely caused huge controversy after the game.

Although the Premier League referee company has always done its own thing and is not intimidated by anyone.

However, he will definitely be criticized by fans and questioned by the media.

In recent years, there have been many incidents of Premier League referees stealing the spotlight, which has been criticized by major clubs, media and fans.

So, considering many factors, he awarded a penalty after some hesitation.

The first penalty taker in Manchester United was Ibrahimovic.

This is recognized by the head coach and the locker room.

However, this penalty kick was a little special.

Because Ling Feng has scored twice in this game.

If I can take this penalty, there is a good chance I will complete a hat trick!

Although he is the record holder for assists in a single Premier League season, Ling Feng has already tasted the joy of assist hat tricks several times.

However, he has yet to score a hat trick!

However, for Ling Feng, scoring a hat trick is very simple.

It depends on whether he wants to or not.

With his current strength, if he really tries his best to score goals, no team, let alone the top teams in the league, even the mid- and lower-level teams will be able to stop him!

Penalties are a symbol of one's status within the team and a means of improving statistics when necessary.

What's more, the head coach had already arranged the candidates and order for the penalty kicks, and he had no objection.

However, he didn't want to take the penalty, but someone wanted him to!

Ibrahimovic was seen holding the ball and waving at him:
"Come here, man!"

When Ling Feng came forward, Da Fengxian threw the ball to him directly:

"You punish me!"

After saying that, he patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"I've scored hundreds of goals, so I don't mind a penalty kick. But your first hat trick only happened once."

Ibrahimovic is a smart guy.

If he hadn't conceded a penalty, he would have been able to become the hero who scored the winning goal against his opponent in the Red Devils derby.

However, if this penalty was given and Ling Feng achieved his first hat trick in his career, the benefits would be even greater!
Ling Feng will not only be very grateful to himself.

He will also be grateful for this favor and will give him more assists and passes in the next game!

In just two months, even Ibrahimovic, who had a high opinion of himself and had worked with many midfield masters, was secretly shocked by Ling Feng's strength.

He dared to say that he had never seen Ling Feng possess such comprehensive abilities at such a young age.

He has the speed of Eto'o, the vision and passing of Xavi, the organization and dispatch of Pirlo... In his eyes, the 21-year-old Ling Feng is even stronger than the 21-year-old Messi!

Especially in using passes to create opportunities for teammates, Ling Feng is not inferior to many historical midfield masters!
In Ibrahimovic's opinion, as long as Ling Feng is willing to keep feeding him goals, he can easily break the Premier League's goal record!

What's more, if he gave the penalty to Ling Feng today, every time the media or fans mentioned Ling Feng's first hat trick, they would also mention that this was a beautiful story in the football world that the great Zlatan chose to help Ling Feng, his younger brother, for the sake of his football team!
Therefore, Ibrahimovic did not have to think too long before deciding to give the penalty to Ling Feng!

Ibrahimovic's decision was also somewhat beyond Ling Feng's expectations.

In his opinion, Ibrahimovic is a very proud person and he will never give up what belongs to him easily.

Whether it is an exclusive seat in the cafeteria or the right to take penalty kicks.

However, Da Fengxian, who had not scored a goal in this game, was actually willing to give the penalty to himself?

"you sure?"

Facing Ling Feng's question, Da Fengxian said impatiently:
"Don't talk nonsense, you better score it and let us take a victory away from this stadium!"

"Otherwise, I won't let you go!"

Hearing Ibrahimovic's "threat", Ling Feng just smiled slightly:
"Look at me!"

Watching Ling Feng holding the ball and putting it on the penalty spot, all of a sudden, huge boos filled every corner of the Anfield Stadium.

Behind the goal, many Liverpool fans raised the international friendly gesture to Ling Feng and cursed at him.

Boos, insults, and even inner prayers are all ways Liverpool fans try to stop Ling Feng
Ling Feng, who took the penalty kick for the first time this season, looked calm and composed.

He took a few steps back, then put his hands on his hips, looked at Karius's position, and then gave a strange smile.

Seeing this, Karius, who was standing on the goal line with a serious face, suddenly felt a pang in his heart.

what's the situation?
Is he smiling at me?
why?
The next second, a whistle sounded and Ling Feng also moved!

He did not choose to pause or jump or do other fancy operations. Instead, he selected the direction to shoot and then pushed the ball decisively!

"It's on the right!"

At the moment of shooting, Karius luckily guessed the direction and made a save.

However, the angle of the shot was too tricky and the power was too strong, it went straight into the lower right corner of the goal, and there was no time to save it.

As the ball hit the net, splashing white waves, the home team fans' hearts were completely hanging.

The boos at Anfield stopped abruptly.

Instead, the visiting team fans roared and burst into excited cheers!
Of course, the Manchester United coaching staff on the sidelines shared the same mood as the fans.

Seeing Ling Feng score the penalty, Mourinho immediately punched the ball to celebrate, and then turned around immediately.

Old assistant Faria thought Mourinho wanted to hug him, but he came directly to the bench:
"Phil (Jones), play!"

This decision also made the Manchester United players on the bench drop their jaws in shock.

In the injury time, the team scored a goal to overtake the score. Instead of celebrating the upcoming victory, the head coach chose to replace a defensive player to ensure the victory of the game? !

All of a sudden, the Manchester United players who were working with Mourinho for the first time were filled with admiration.

He is worthy of being one of the best head coaches in football today!

After scoring his first penalty in his Red Devils career, Ling Feng scored his third individual goal of the game!

At this point, he finally completed his first hat trick in his career!
Although he is not as good as the "magic boy" Michael Owen who performed a hat trick in the Premier League at the age of 18.

However, at the age of 21 years and 130 days, he also became the second-youngest player in Manchester United's history to complete a hat-trick after Rooney!
"One hit kills!"

"hat trick!"

"Ling Feng scored his third goal of the game!"

"The score on the field has become two to three!"

"Manchester United are leading again!"

After scoring the goal, Ling Feng rushed directly to the main stand and finally made his signature "King of the World" celebration!
Seeing this, Manchester United legends and fans, who were afraid that he would provoke the fans again and get sent off with a red card, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

so far so good
As Ling Feng scored the penalty, Mourinho immediately used his last substitution and replaced Ling Feng, the hero of the game, with substitute central defender Phil Jones.

Amid the applause from the visiting fans, Ling Feng trotted off the field and hugged Mourinho.

Just two minutes after the kick-off, referee Anthony Taylor blew the whistle to end the game!

The next second, all Manchester United players roared to the sky to celebrate this hard-earned victory!

While clapping and hugging Lingard, Ling Feng did not forget to joke:
"That ball, are you asleep?"

Hearing this, Lingard smiled awkwardly, then shook his finger and said in a pretentious manner:
"You don't understand. I deliberately induced him to commit a foul just to give my good buddy a chance to complete a hat trick."

Of course Lingard was unwilling to admit that he was thinking about life when he had that one-on-one shot, which led to him being tackled by his opponent.

Ling Feng did not expose his little thoughts and said with a bright smile:
"Then I really have to thank you very much."

"Of course."

Blinking, Lingard suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, don't forget to take your ball!"

After Lingard's reminder, Ling Feng remembered that he had completed his first hat trick in his career and was eligible to take away the ball for this game.

So he came in front of the referee Anthony Taylor.

"Congratulations, young man, your performance is impeccable!"

"Thank you."

After saying that, Ling Feng took the ball.

At the same time, the photographer accompanying the team put the camera to his face and captured this very important moment in his career.

Ling Feng just held the ball, gave a thumbs up to the camera, and then showed a charming smile that was enough to charm thousands of girls.

After the game, Ling Feng, who completed a hat trick and was selected as the best player of the game, received a full score of 10 from the scoring agency whoscored!
And whoscored's comment is:
"This new Manchester United No.7 ended Liverpool's game by himself!"

It is worth mentioning that this is the second time that whoscored gave Ling Feng a full score after the game!

It is worth mentioning that this rating agency has always been very harsh in rating Ronaldo.

Even when Ronaldo scored four or even five goals in a row during his time at Real Madrid, whoscored only gave him a score of 9.8 at most.

Therefore, many people joked that this rating agency was sponsored by Messi, because no matter how Messi performed, whoscored always gave Messi a high score.

In the past two years, Ling Feng is the only player in the Premier League to have received full marks twice, and he had the highest average score after the game last season. People can't help but wonder whether Ling Feng has privately given money to whoscored.

Of course, this is just friendly banter.

After all, Ling Feng last season was definitely the best player in the Premier League!
Moreover, he was able to complete a hat-trick of goals on such a major stage as the Red Derby.

A full score of 10 is not too much at all!
