Football: The god-level goalkeeper makes the whole of Europe call him brother

On August 28, 2005, the curtain of the 2005-2006 La Liga season slowly opened. Judging from the training situation throughout the summer, the coaching staff unanimously agreed to let Li Ming start as the goalkeeper for two games, because Franco had lost the ball inexplicably when facing several low-level warm-up opponents.

In the first round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid played against Zaragoza at Calderon. Franco sat on the bench and watched Li Ming guard the goal.

Zaragoza lined up the central axis of Sanchez-Cesar, Milito, Savio, Everton, and Diego Milito.

Atletico Madrid played with all its main players, and still deployed a 442 formation with a midfield diamond:

Goalkeeper: Li Ming

Defenders: Lopez, Pablo, Perea, Velasco

Midfielders: Petrov, Lucin, Maxi, Galletti

Forwards: Torres, Kezman

When the DJ introduced the starting lineup of the home team, the first one he introduced was Li Ming: "No. 25! First time participating in the league! Young goalkeeper from the great Atletico Madrid youth training camp - Li Ming!"

The night breeze at 7 o'clock in the summer evening blew on Li Ming's face. In the roar of nearly 50,000 spectators at the Calderon Stadium, he was in high spirits. This feeling was a bit too much.

He knew the situation of the Zaragoza team very well. The visiting team's top star last season - David Villa, moved to the Bats in the summer window. Zaragoza made a flustered operation in the summer window, but loaned the efficient shooter Diego Milito from Genoa. His younger brother Gabriel Milito has become famous in the Zaragoza team, and the giants are coveting him.

Li Ming glanced at Diego Milito and admired him: In the era before I traveled through time, you were the man who led the Inter Milan old boy to the top of Europe! But now, I will not give you any chance.

As soon as the referee blew the whistle, the game started. Zaragoza used the most popular 4231 lineup at the moment, with two defensive midfielders sweeping, Savio on the left, Everton on the right, and Diego Milito as the single arrow.

After the opening, Zaragoza took the initiative. Savio and Everton broke through the wing very sharply. The two Brazilians kept training Atletico's two local full-backs. Various crosses flew in front of Li Ming. Fortunately, the tall and strong Pablo and the black and hard Perea formed a central defender who was still very stable and cleared the ball out of the penalty area again and again. However, Atletico's Lucin was still rough in the defensive midfielder position, and his several passes were not ideal, and his connection with the attacking midfielder Maxi was basically cut off!

At this time, Savio played Atletico's right back Velasco again. Perea and Pablo subconsciously retreated to the middle, thinking that this guy was going to pass the ball again. Unexpectedly, Savio passed the ball horizontally to Everton, who stopped the ball with his chest and shot a world wave in the air without waiting for the ball to land!

Lopez couldn't block it in time and shouted, "Not good!" He looked at Li Ming, implying that it all depends on you!

Li Ming knew Everton's reputation in Dortmund in the Bundesliga, but now his reaction speed of 20 is like watching badminton when watching this kind of arc ball, so he moved in advance, thinking that this time he would jump up directly and hold the football to show the home audience his extreme reaction ability in his first La Liga game!

As a result, Li Ming jumped up and felt that he was about to hold the football, but his ability to control the ball was still too low, and the ball bounced off him. Fortunately, Perea was also fast, and a long black leg stretched out in front of Li Ming, and kicked the ball out!

The TV commentator was also excited, shouting: "Everton's shot was beautiful! Whoever saved it would be beautiful! Sorry, the one who just saved the ball was another representative masterpiece of Atletico's youth training - Li Ming!"

Li Ming himself was very unwilling. If he could just jump up steadily and hold the ball, and get a world wave with his bare hands, it would be too face. But the audience applauded Li Ming's save just now, which made him feel excited again!

After a few minutes of the game, Atletico still couldn't organize a counterattack in the midfield. Kezman was unwilling to return to defense in front, but Torres kept retreating to get the ball.

At this time, Maxi had just taken the ball and was about to pass it to the side, but the visiting team's Milito did not give his fellow Argentine a chance. He made a clean tackle to intercept the ball, quickly got up and dribbled the ball to the midfield, and made a straight pass to his brother, Diego Milito. The whole process was smooth and flowing, which made Lucin and his gang feel ashamed and annoyed.

Diego Milito accelerated and tried to block Pablo's position, but the Atletico central defender was as strong as an ox, and his body was intact after being hit several times. Seeing that this attack was about to fail again, Everton on the right sprinted in like lightning, and controlled the ball before Pablo, and Antonio Lopez behind him was injured again.

Perea also came back to defend and was about to kick Everton, the Brazilian was quick-witted and pretended to shoot at the lower left corner of the goal. Li Ming was flustered for a moment, and his feet were also moved. At this time, Diego Milito went around from behind Pablo and went straight to the goal to get the ball!

At this time, Everton had passed the ball. Seeing that Diego Milito was about to shoot at the empty goal, Li Ming immediately jumped sideways. Although he felt that his movement speed was slow, he estimated that the defensive range he jumped down should be able to block Milito's shooting route! No matter what, he jumped first!

When Li Ming fell to the ground, Milito's shot hit his hands firmly! His hands were like a pair of pliers tightly clamping the ball. At first glance, it seemed that Li Ming directly blocked Milito's shot with his hands!

In fact, Li Ming only felt his arms shake, his tiger's mouth tightened, and he felt that the ball was about to be out of control! When Milito saw that Li Ming had already controlled the ball, he stopped making trouble, so as not to collide with the goalkeeper and get a card.

Li Ming now has a new trick. Although his hand control value is still too low, he relies on his reaction to use his upper body to press the ball and it works every time!

The audience applauded when they saw Li Ming blocking Milito with his hands, as if the new generation of Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper has stood in the Calderon Stadium!

But Atletico Madrid's offensive has not improved. The two sides fought for more than 20 minutes, and the score is still 0-0.

In the first game of the new season, Lu Xin was in great pain. When facing the three forwards of Zaragoza, he was really crying. In addition, Maxi, Petrov and Galletti were only busy attacking, not defending, and the path from the center axis to the side was unobstructed!

Lu Xin pouted: What is Madrid's iron-blooded defense!

Bianchi raised his voice and shouted: "Forwards, move and help the defensive midfielder. Lu Xin, you have to pay attention to your back!"

Lu Xin muttered: "I might as well retreat to the central defender position, so as not to have to look at the opponent's forwards and make my eyes blurry."
