Chapter 267 The Difference Between a Star and a Player
Seeing Li Rui's goal, the happiest person was an old Scottish man named Alex Ferguson. When the football flew into the net, he was unscrewing the bottle of mineral water. Ferguson, who was about to drink, waved the bottle of mineral water in his hand excitedly. , Even the water in the bottle was thrown out and wet Park Ji-sung's jersey on the bench, Ferguson didn't notice.

Fortunately, Pu Zhixing's children's shoes are also a good baby. Although he was a little unhappy, Pu Zhixing's children's shoes just picked up the towel and wiped them without saying a word, and did not dare to express any dissatisfaction.Korean players are notoriously disciplined.

…………

It should be said that Li Rui's goal was too important. Just after falling behind, it was immediately equalized, and Manchester United's morale suddenly rose.

Under the ebb and flow, Villarreal is a newcomer to the Champions League after all. Although they are playing at home, there is still a big gap in experience compared to giants like Manchester United, especially when they have just scored. Scoring the first Champions League goal in the club's history, the score was equalized in the blink of an eye, and the team's morale was also hit hard.

…………

Stimulated by Li Rui's goal, the Manchester United team suddenly exerted force and launched a fierce attack towards Villarreal's penalty area. Villarreal, who was not well prepared, was immediately suppressed and could not move. .

…………

Li Rui, who scored this goal, seemed to be in full shape all of a sudden, dribbling the ball at high speed, splitting the ball, grabbing points in the penalty area, and shooting long shots from outside the penalty area... he was extremely active.

Under the leadership of Li Rui, the Manchester United team attacked in waves, wave after wave, wave after wave like a huge wave, rushing towards the penalty area of ​​the yellow submarine!
…………

The Villarreal fans at the Love Song Stadium were a little silent. They saw that the team's defense line had shrunk to the vicinity of the penalty area, and the Villarreal players were trying their best to resist the opponent's fierce attack.

In the 36th minute, after Fletcher received the ball from the right, he stopped the ball and turned around beautifully. After avoiding Sorin's attack, he dribbled the ball along the side and broke all the way to the bottom line.

Senna saw that his teammate Sorin failed to stop Fletcher, so he had to give up Li Rui beside him and ran over to make up for it. If Fletcher cut inside and entered the penalty area, that would be dangerous.

…………

Cena just ran over, Fletcher saw that the purpose of attracting Cena had been achieved, then he changed his ankle and passed the ball back to the right side of the penalty area, where Li Rui, who was no longer entangled by Cena, had already penetrated in place.

…………

This time, the Villarreal defender did not dare to allow Li Rui to take the ball calmly. Villarreal left-back Krukamp rushed out immediately, intending to break the football with a first kick.

Amidst the exclamation of everyone in the Love Song Stadium, Li Rui turned his back to the goal, lifted his left foot, and pulled the ball to the right with the spikes smartly and smartly, causing Krukampt, who was rushing behind him, to pounce on him. It was empty, and then Li Rui turned around halfway, padded his chest forward, the football just fell, and took advantage of the opportunity to push the football forward with the inside of his foot, and dribbled the ball horizontally towards the middle.

…………

"WOWOOWO...a beautiful stop to get rid of the ball, this guy is simply a genius, I almost wonder if he has a Brazilian soul..." Taibi shouted exaggeratedly, but it is estimated that the fans who heard his commentary, No one would think he was exaggerating.

…………

Villarreal defender Gonzalo saw that Li Rui got rid of Crukamp, ​​and hurried up to intercept. Li Rui made a smash, and then went forward again, passing Gonzalo, and then he looked up Looking at the goal, at this time, there is already a shooting angle. However, it is still a bit difficult to score directly from a long-range shot from this position.

Li Rui took the football one step forward and swung his right foot. Everyone thought he would shoot. Villarreal goalkeeper Vieira was no exception. He moved two steps to guard against Li Rui's attack. shot.

…………

Imagination bursts at this moment!
The difference between a star and a player is this moment!
The moment Li Rui raised his right foot, the moment it touched the football, it turned into a rub. The outer instep of his right foot rubbed lightly on the football. In fact, it was a pass!
The ball crossed an arc, was passed into the penalty area, flew over Alvarez's head, and flew to the left side of the penalty area.

…………

There, there is a gap, a fleeting gap.

Just as Alvarez was about to block Li Rui's shot, Fonte also focused his attention on Rooney. No one noticed Scholes who suddenly advanced after passing the ball just now. There, he inserted No one around Scholes came up to defend!

…………

Facing the falling football, Scholes straightened his chest, the football stopped beautifully, and the ball fell in a timely manner. Then, without any adjustments, Scholes swung his right foot and hit the goal with great force. !

Villarreal goalkeeper Vieira focused all his attention on blocking Li Rui's long-range shot. He didn't expect that Li Rui would make such a beautiful pass, but Scholes' volley , and full of strength, Vieira didn't make any pounce moves at all...

Like a fired shell, the football slammed into the net and brought a big bag.

…………

"Paul...Scholes...ITS...GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!!!!" Taibi's high-pitched roar rang out again, and with his roar, countless Manchester United fans in front of the TV also let out long The roar of the GOAL.

"Brilliant goal, perfect pass! Perfect shot! Perfect goal! Lee, the lad proved his worth to everyone, and Scholes told everyone, he's still the one that's reassuring Ginger head!!!" Lineker shouted, this goal is really wonderful.

…………

After seeing Scholes kicking the football in, Li Rui rushed to the sidelines crazily, roaring and rushed to the stands behind the goal, like a roaring lion!

There were around 3000 Manchester United fans in the stands who hadn't even reflected on the magnificent goal.

That's right, a gorgeous goal!

…………

Scholes's shot was wonderful enough, but Li Rui's stop, dribble, and imaginative pass were the key to this goal, the brightest gem!

Li Rui and Scholes, who scored the goal, hugged tightly. Everyone rushed over and waved their arms towards the stands. What responded to them was the enthusiastic applause of the Manchester United fans. It was so insignificant in the boos, but Manchester United players could hear it, and Li Rui could also hear and feel it, and that was enough!
It feels great to be a hero!

The bigger the scene, the more exciting it is!
…………

In the 37th minute of the game, Scholes scored a wonderful volley after receiving a wonderful pass from Li Rui. Manchester United overtook the score 2:1 at the Love Song Stadium.

The camera was also aimed at the coaching bench on the sidelines. Villarreal coach Manuel Pellegrini had an ugly expression, with his right hand resting on his chin, as if he was thinking about countermeasures.On the other side, Ferguson's face was flushed, obviously very satisfied with the team's performance.

Taking it a step further, it can be said that he is very satisfied with Li Rui. After missing the Champions Cup qualifying rounds due to injuries and other factors, Li Rui finally ushered in his Champions Cup debut, and his performance , Ferguson couldn't be more satisfied.

…………

"Ferguson must be very pleased with Lee's performance now, the lad, in his first Champions League game, surprised everyone again, if, at the end of the first half, the players of the two teams were scored , I plan to give this kid 10 points, that’s right, full marks! Haha.” Taibi laughed.

"I give 9 points." Lineker said, and then he also smiled, "That point is suspense, and there is still the second half of the game. I am somewhat looking forward to what Lee can do?"

Tabby and Lineker laughed.

…………

"Haha, you're right." In Manchester bars, countless men held up their wheat-yellow beer, looked at the TV screen, and shouted loudly.

***********
After Manchester United overtook the score, Villarreal's players showed their inexperienced side even more. During the time, some players want to attack to see if they can equalize the score, while some players want to defend and try not to concede a goal. With a gap of one goal, at least there is hope for the second half.

Therefore, in the first half of the next game, Villarreal showed a problem of disconnection between the front and back courts. There were not many ways to attack, and it was a bit difficult to defend.

…………

In the 41st minute, Rooney received a pass from Giggs in the penalty area, grabbed ahead of the tall Crukamp, ​​jumped up and scored with a header, the ball flew out of the baseline through the crossbar, and narrowly missed the goal. Score rewritten.

…………

In stoppage time in the first half of the game, Keane immediately launched a quick counterattack after stealing the ball in midfield. Manchester United played a classic fast break. After two or three passes, the football fell to Rooney's feet, and the fat man swung his foot About to take a long shot, Alvarez immediately came up to block it, but it was a fake move. Rooney pushed lightly, and Li Rui succeeded in offside. He entered the penalty area and faced Villarreal goalkeeper Vieira. .

Some of the Villarreal fans at the Love Song stadium have already covered their eyes. The Manchester United No. 10 team performed really well in this game. Such a single-handed goal almost means that the goal is almost guaranteed... …

…………

Li Rui observed Vieira's position in front of the goal, and chose to volley from the far corner. The football slid past Vieira's armpit, which was diving for the ball, and flew towards the goal. In the end, it hit the goal. Upright, rolled out of the bottom line.

Li Rui's shot is a bit too pursuit of the angle!

Li Rui looked up to the sky and sighed, slapped the turf depressedly, then scratched his hair, the regret on his face was clearly visible, if the goal was scored and the score became 3:1, the suspense of the game would almost be lost.

…………

After Li Rui missed the goal to expand the score, the referee Butler from Switzerland blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

At this time, in Cannes, France, Jessica returned to the hotel where she was a little tired. This time, the organizing committee arranged a lot of activities, although Jessica had asked her agent Marco to streamline some less important activities. However, there are still a lot of activities that require her to attend. She is really exhausted in Cannes these days.

…………

I poured myself a glass of 1982 Lafite, and took a few sips. For a female star like Jessica, drinking some red wine occasionally is not an alcohol addiction. It is said that women who work hard are more likely to age, and female stars are even more so. Therefore, in terms of maintenance, you must pay special attention to it.

"Oh!" Jessica suddenly remembered something, she jumped up from the sofa, found the remote control in a panic, and turned on the TV. She remembered that she wanted to watch her boyfriend's game, which was the Champions Cup. Although the game is a 'fake fan', Jessica still knows that the Champions League game is the highest stage for football players.

It's a pity that when I turned on the TV, it was already halftime. However, on the TV screen, the wonderful scenes of the first half were being played back. Jessica tilted her head, lay on the sofa, and watched seriously...

…………

On the TV screen, Manchester United's second goal is being played back.

"This pass is so beautiful. This is the difference between a star and a player. Li's performance is great..." The voice of the commentator came from the TV.

Hearing these words, Jessica felt that all her fatigue had disappeared, and Li Rui's shadow was in her whole heart...

…………

Forlan looked a bit frustrated after the game. In the first half of the game, except for the assist of the shovel pass, the Uruguayan hardly got any chances. This made him say before the game that he should make Ferguson regret giving up on himself , became an empty phrase.

Thorin came over and patted him on the shoulder without saying anything, as a sign of comfort.

Fran, who returned to the locker room, was still silent. Everyone could see that he was in a bad mood. After all, no matter who made a big statement before the game, but performed poorly, he would be in a bad mood. However, The teammates didn't know that apart from this reason, Fran was still a little bit dissatisfied and depressed. As the winner of the European Golden Boot last season and the top scorer in La Liga, in the first half of the game, he was completely defeated by Li Rui Rui's feet, thinking that the 20-year-old young man took the limelight in the first half, Fran was very upset.

…………

Pellegrini glanced at Forlan and said suddenly: "Diego (Forlan), would you like to take a break in the second half?"

Fran jumped up as if a powder keg had been lit, and looked at Pellegrini with wide eyes, "No, sir, I can do it, please don't worry."

Pellegrini sighed slightly in his heart, "Well, I'll wait to see your performance."

He also just provoked Fran. Objectively speaking, the Uruguayan's performance in the first half was not the worst. Villarreal had a perfect first 16 minutes. Fran's assist was also very beautiful. However, after that, under Manchester United's sudden attack, Villarreal was a little at a loss, and there were almost no good opportunities in offense, and Forlan naturally didn't have any decent performance.

Moreover, Pellegrini chose to give Forlan a chance because he didn't have too many choices. The gap between the strength of Guayre on the bench and the Uruguayan is not 01:30.

…………

In the locker room of the visiting team at the Love Song Stadium, the teammates congratulated Li Rui together, and Ferguson also smiled and praised Li Rui's performance in the first half. The old Scottish man was indeed very happy. He was very satisfied with Li Rui's performance. It's normal to praise when you are satisfied.

Li Rui also seemed very excited. Although he also experienced some important games, such as the situation in the FA Cup final last season, Li Rui had to admit in his heart that even though it was the FA Cup final, However, this feeling of excitement cannot be compared with the Champions League.

…………

This is also related to the fact that Li Rui is not an English player. Although he also knows the glory of the FA Cup champion, Li Rui still does not have the enthusiasm for the FA Cup in the bones of the English people. Maybe it was developed in China when he was a child Yes, he still thinks that games like the Champions Cup are the most important.

…………

After a brief celebration, the locker room became quiet. Ferguson continued to arrange tactics for the second half. He asked Li Rui to run more in the frontcourt and gave Li Rui more freedom. The purpose was to disturb Villarreal defence, while Rooney was asked to get closer to goal.

Li Rui was leaning against the wall and was wiping the water off his face with a towel. The weather was still a bit hot. He just washed his face to cool down.

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly. Ferguson has finished the tactical arrangement for the second half in a few simple sentences. Now hurry up and take a break. The Champions Cup game consumes more energy than the league. Fortunately, Li Rui After this period of systematic training, Rui's physical recovery is still good. He has somewhat found the feeling of "running to death" that he had last season...

…………

When the game was about to start in the second half, Ferguson suddenly stopped Li Rui from the sidelines. Li Rui stopped and looked at the head coach with some doubts.

Ferguson patted Li Rui on the shoulder, "Come on, the second half!"

When he said this, the godfather of Manchester United did not seem to be the head coach of Manchester United, but more like an old man who spoiled the younger generation.

"En." Li Rui nodded vigorously, threw off his steps, and ran into the court...
