Chapter 128 Heart-Wrave
Today's game was difficult to surprise the home team Manchester City. They were already 0:2 behind 30 minutes after the start of the game. Manchester City fans began to have old problems and were extremely silent in the stands. On the contrary, only 3,000 Everton fans occupied the whole stadium. They shouted Everton's slogans and jumped. Extremely active.
When Li Yu scored the second goal, Eriksson had a bad hunch. He must admit that he underestimated Everton's No. 22 player, whom he should have valued, but he chose to let it play. It can be said that Manchester City is two goals behind now, and his head coach's mistake in tactical arrangement. It's a big deal, but Eriksson still has a glimmer of fantasy. After all, this is Manchester City's home court. As long as he can score a goal in the first half, Manchester City still has hope. It is impossible to temporarily change the defensive tactics on the court. Only use attack to resolve Everton's attack. The best defense is still offensive after all, Eric Sen stood on the sidelines and kept waving his arms, directing the Manchester City players on the field to attack. The Swede didn't want to lose too ugly at home. Now Manchester City must attack.
Although there are still nearly 20 minutes before the end of the first half of the game, including the possible injury stoppage time, but in the next game, Manchester City launched a crazy offensive and tested Everton's defensive strength. In the past, Everton's defensive toughness made all opponents feel headaches. This kind of After being passively defended by 2 goals ahead, Everton did a good job, especially Wan Jinyou Yajelka on the back line. He flew many times to block the eye and blocked the shots of Manchester City players. On the contrary, Li Yu seemed a little redundant at such a time, and the defense was very bad. All the players in Everton team knew Li Yu's shortcomings. In defense, they don't expect Li Yu on the front line to stop the opponent's attack. Under the instructions of captain Neville, Li Yu simply wandered near the Manchester City defender, so that the Manchester City defender did not dare to press too much, which can also slightly relieve Everton's defensive pressure and find the ball point as soon as possible in the counterattack.
Manchester City doesn't want to be as kind to Li Yu as he was just now, especially Captain Dunn and Richards. Neither of them are good at attacking Li Yu. Richards is simply a humanoid tank. His physical condition is definitely the best one in the Manchester City team. With Dunn's containment, he can completely keep up with Li Yu's speed. .
Li Yu's whole body is wet. In fact, he has long wanted to take off his jersey and twist it again. It feels uncomfortable to stick to his body. If he dares to take off the referee, he will definitely play. If Li Yu is not a little free now, he really can't pay attention to these details, plus the two Manchester City players from time to time. Physical contact made him more eager to go back to the locker room to wash at the end of the first half, and then change into a dry jersey!
People are like this. When they are highly concentrated, they will not pay attention to other problems at all. When they are free, they will notice it.
Just when Li Yu was a little distracted, Arteta's long pass came. Everton finally got a chance to counterattack, and it was the Spanish pass. He and Li Yu had a high tacit understanding, and the ball he passed was the ball suitable for Li Yu's sprint.
This time, Li Yu started slowly. After finding that the ball came out, Richards leaned against Li Yu with his body, making Li Yu slower. At this time, it was too late to speed up to get rid of it. Dunn had taken the ball and handed it over to Manchester City at Jason's feet to continue the attack.
"Li Yu is a little distracted. The original good opportunity is so wasteful. Look at Moyes's expression on the sidelines and you will know that the account is on Li Yu's head!" Huang Jianxiang used his own interpretation to talk about Li Yu's mistake, and suddenly heard his partner Su Dong's scream.
"No, Manchester City Pedrof shot! Make-up shot, the ball is scored! At the end of the first half, Manchester City scored a goal. It was Ireland that scored. It was his make-up shot that scored Everton's goal. Howard had nothing to do with this goal. He had tried his best for the first shot. What else can he expect the Americans who fell to the ground for the second time!" Su Dong introduced the whole process of equalizing Manchester City. He didn't say anything about the attack caused by Li Yu's mistake in the front court, but all Chinese fans needless to say that Manchester City's goals have something to do with Li Yu.
Eriksson motioned the players to go back to the half. If they can play another in stoppage time, then Manchester City will definitely reverse the game in the second half, equalizing two goals behind and leading by two goals. The change in the mood of the two teams is enough to turn the game around.
Moyes also knew the benefits. In any case, Everton had to hold on to the next few minutes of the first half. As for the fire, it was not too late to wait in the locker room. Moyes took advantage of the kick-off and quickly called Neville to the sidelines for a few words.
When Li Yu stood in the middle circle kick-off, he felt uncomfortable. He knew that the goal he had a lot to do with his mistake just now. Just now, the captain told everyone to withstand the last few minutes of Manchester City's offensive in the midfield and intercept Manchester City's attack in the midfield. The players of the two teams were concentrated near the midfield. He thought There are not many opportunities to make up for it. It's better to do it once after kick-off.
Originally, it was Li Yu who divided the ball to Cahill. Under Li Yu's consciousness, the two changed positions. Cahill divided the ball to Li Yu. Li Yu immediately accelerated and rushed out of the middle circle. The whole team of Manchester City was still waiting for Everton to kick off as usual. Li Yu's behavior was a little unexpected to the Manchester City players, but there were People still noticed Li Yu's strange behavior and kept staring at Li Yu's every move. He found that Li Yu rushed out of more than 20 meters as soon as he accelerated. Richards moved decisively to the middle in the position of his original full-back.
Li Yu, who wants to make up for his skills, really plays 200% of the speed this time. As long as Manchester City players hesitate a little, they can only see Li Yu's No. 22 back. The title of Son of the Wind is more appropriate to describe Li Yu at this moment.
The evil people appeared, and even the fans of the home team did not want to see it. In an exclamation, Richards flew the shovel overturned Li Yu to the ground without hesitation. Seeing Li Yu lying on the court holding his ankles, Moyes on the side of the field was also frightened, and taught the boy the idea that he just wanted to break at halftime. It had been thrown to Jiuxiao for a long time. Everton's team doctor didn't use the coach's prompts to rush into the field to check Li Yu's injury.
With the help of the team doctor, Li Yu slowly walked towards the side of the field. The team doctor carefully checked it. It should not be a big problem. Li Yu was also shocked just now. Richards shoveled on his ankle, and there was a feeling of pain. At that moment, his heart was cold and he thought that he He was injured and just recovered. Now he has to go back to recover. Fortunately, after taking two steps, the pain gradually disappeared. Now there is nothing abnormality. When she heard the team doctor say that it was okay, Li Yu was relieved.
Richards waited for a yellow card. There was nothing to say. If it hadn't been for the referee's home court in Manchester City, he would have no objection to showing a red card directly.
"Li Yu will not be injured again, will he? Just now he saw that he was helped out of the court and limping. Judging from the position where Li Yu fell and holding his ankle, the situation does not seem to be very good, especially in such a high-speed dribble!" Huang Jianxiang was obviously a little depressed.
"The situation that Chinese fans most want to see has happened. Li Yu is receiving treatment on the sidelines. In the camera, it seems that the team doctor who took him to the sidelines is checking Li Yu's injury, hoping that there will be no injuries!" Su Dong closely watched the scene of Li Yu's treatment in the camera. As for the things on the field, as a commentator, he ignored it at all.
Li Yu did not return to the field until the end of the first half. The team doctor was still spraying dry ice spray on Li Yu to relieve the pain, and the referee did not continue to end the first half of the game.
1:2, Everton is still one goal ahead of home team Manchester City on the road.
Li Yu, who is most concerned about by Chinese fans, has never been explained. She fell to the ground and was injured and was not injured. Li Yu's injury affects the hearts of hundreds of millions of Chinese fans who stay up late to watch the game. For the fifteen minutes of halftime, people who stay up late to watch the ball at this time are the most sleepy time. It is because they care about Li Yu's injury that many Hua Xia fans soberly spent the difficult 15-minute break.
The two commentators have also been speculating about various possibilities in the midfield. Huang Jianxiang felt that Li Yu was really injured, but he was still more optimistic. At the speed at Li Yu's last recovery, he should return to the field soon.
Su Dong insisted that there was nothing wrong with Li Yu.
"The two of us have different opinions. It's better to say who is right. Let's pay for the next supper!" Huang Jianxiang found a good topic to relieve it.
"I said Jianxiang, you don't look at what time it is now. It's also a midnight snack. It should be about the same as early morning and morning tea. I'll just ask you for this midnight snack. If you don't invite me, you have to invite me. It seems that you have made a deal!" Su Dong took over the words and mocked his partner, and the tacit understanding between the two enlivened the atmosphere.
The second half finally began. First of all, the fans of Manchester City Stadium found that Li Yu's figure came out of the player channel again and gave applause.
At this time, the live signal has not returned to the field. Chinese fans do not know about Li Yu's situation. When the camera is cut back to the scene of the game, people opened their eyes and want to see whether the person standing in the middle circle has Li Yu or not. The camera is closer, and the two Chinese fans finally breathed a sigh of relief. Li Yu is doing nothing. He is moving his legs in the camera to prepare to kick off.
"Jianxiang, you can't cheat in a moment!"
"How can it be? In front of national fans, I promise you!"
