Green Dragon

Chapter 666 Cold-Blooded Ruthless Captain Dragon

"Long Shute holds the ball under his feet, Fernandinho tries to grab it! Marseilles spins! Beautiful pass!"

Although Zhan Tianjun spoke as fast as ever, he didn't feel nervous at all.

Zhang Lu, the guest who partnered with him, smiled habitually:
"For Long Shute, this kind of getting rid of... can only be regarded as a routine operation?"

Of course it's routine!
How can a mere Marseille roundabout reflect the superb skills of the Red Army captain?
Before Long Shute stopped from the roundabout, he shoveled directly on the back of his instep. The ball seemed to have eyes, and it was hoisted from near the middle circle to the penalty area!
He didn't shoot directly, but found his teammate who advanced at high speed... Danny Ince!

If he hadn't practiced this routine in the previous training, Ince would never have the consciousness to insert into the penalty area. After all...no one can imagine that Long Shute can maintain a sense of balance and direction while turning in circles, and accurately place the football Pick over Otamendi's head!
Manchester City central defender Otamendi is only in his early 180s. Like Manchester United's Blind, he is a shortcoming in the prevention and control area!
Ince hits the ball!

The ball bounced off his instep, and it went into the net with a bang!
"The goal is scored! 1-0!"

Zhan Tianjun resisted the desire to snap his fingers:
"Only 12 minutes into the game, Liverpool took the lead at Wembley Stadium!"

Zhang Lu nodded again and again:

"The cooperation between Long Shute and his teammates is just right. As you can imagine, this is called..."

"Ince." Zhan Tianjun hastily reminded him.

"Oh, this backup striker named Ince must practice closely with Long Shute at ordinary times, otherwise he would never have such a tacit understanding just now... I am very optimistic about this young man, why? Only with teammates with higher levels Only by training together can we improve faster..."

The two commentators were still playing freely, but a whistle sounded over Wembley.

"drop!"

The referee Michael Oliver crossed his hands in front of him and swung outward!
"Is this ball counted? Offside first?"

Zhan Tianjun watched helplessly as the score provided by the broadcaster returned from 1-0 to 0-0, and shook his head regretfully:

"It's a pity. If Liverpool can win first, the next game will definitely not suffer. Whether it is Manchester City or Liverpool, they will further strengthen their offensive...Huh?"

Of course, the TV screen showed a replay, but even with a magnifying glass, there was no sign of Ince's offside...

"This should be a good goal," Zhang Lu felt a little regretful, "Maybe Long Shute's pass was too sudden, and Liverpool's attack was too fast, so that the referee couldn't keep up with their rhythm..."

That's all they can explain.
-
If the first time was an excusable misjudgment, when Sturridge tried to cut into the penalty area in the 24th minute, he was shoveled on the ankle by full-back Sagna, and the referee again It is unimaginable for all Liverpool players and fans to make a penalty in favor of Manchester City.

The system data in the eyes of Long Shute directly marked Sturridge, who was lying in pain in the penalty area, with a state of "slightly sprained ankle, unable to persist in the game", but Sarnia slapped his butt and kicked him. The ball was kicked into Liverpool's half!

Long Shute, who was going to pay attention to his teammate's injury, was caught off guard, but let Sterling pass him by!

Sterling...is originally an extremely fast wide player. Even Long Shute, it is difficult to catch up within 20 meters when the start is one step slower, the turn is one step slower, and the preparation is one step slower.

Fortunately, Liverpool's defensive position is still relatively low. After receiving the ball, Sterling did not form a single-handed opportunity. He could only control the ball under his feet and try to cut inside.

Liverpool fans in the stands once again booed the former Anfield favorite - there is an unwritten rule on the pitch that if a player is injured, no matter who is in possession, the ball should be kicked out of bounds , and then allow the wounded to be healed.

But as a former Liverpool player, Sterling has no scruples about Sturridge's injury.

What's even more chilling is... they are still comrades-in-arms who created the brilliant season of 13-14 together!
Perhaps it was because of his lack of psychological quality. Affected by the boos all over the sky, Sterling was unable to make a comfortable pass from the bottom. That's it.

As the captain, Long Shute should have kicked the ball out of the sideline, and then let the team doctor enter the field to treat Sturridge, but he also did not do so.

"Sturridge was still moaning in pain on the grass, but his teammates didn't mean to suspend the game?!"

The BBC commentator John Mortensen, who was in charge of the live broadcast, was a little hard to understand:
"If Sterling is a traitor to Liverpool and he has no feelings for his former comrades-in-arms, then... what does it mean to be the captain of the Red Army today?!"
-
The Liverpool fans who were booing Sterling a second ago were a little overwhelmed, because their captain did not kick the ball off the field.

Instead, Long Shute passed the ball straight to his teammate Joe Allen not far away, and then re-selected to start!

Thanks to the system, he knew that Sturridge's injury was not serious, so he launched a counterattack at this time!
Thanks to Sterling, all 9 Manchester City players were brought into Liverpool's half. This is the best chance to counterattack!

"Long Shute, Joe Allen, and then to Long Shute...Lalana, or Long Shute!"

One name after another came out of Zhan Tianjun's mouth, but Long Shute had already increased his speed to the extreme.

The two wall-to-wall cooperation allowed him to speed up, and more importantly, allowed him to easily pass between the Manchester City midfielder of Yaya Toure, Fernando and Fernandinho without having to escape the defense. time wasted in the process.

Otamendi and Kompany are already in sight, but Blue Moon's two defenders are in the process of retreating!
Long Shute's forward momentum suddenly slowed down, but he chose to pull sideways!
Otamendi, who was closer, quickly took a big step. No matter whether the opponent wanted to shoot, pass, or advance, he had to make the most basic blocking action!
"Whoosh!"

He heard the sound of the ball scraping the turf!
Otamendi's eyes widened, but he only saw a black shadow flying diagonally from between his legs!

Wear crotch!

Far post!
Caballero didn't have time to move, he could only obediently stand at the near post, turned his head, and watched the black shadow go straight into the side net! -
Michael Oliver.

Born in 1985, he officially became a Premier League referee in 2007. He started to enforce the Premier League in 2010 and international competitions in 2012. He is a good seed cultivated by the FA.

But unfortunately, if there are examples of players and teams driving high and low, then Oliver must be a typical referee.

When he first debuted, he received a lot of praise in the industry, and his law enforcement level surpassed that of Clattenburg, Atkinson, Mike Dean and other seniors, but when he gradually matured, he found that... he and other seniors seem to be It doesn't make a difference either.

The Chinese fans who watched the excitement even called him the "Fantastic Four" and the "Blind Monk" together with the three previous seniors.

In addition to this nickname, Oliver also has a semi-public identity, he is known as "Manchester City's Webber".

Yes, he is not a Manchester City fan, but... as long as he comes to blow Manchester City's game, Manchester City is almost sure to win three points. If he is the referee of the Manchester Derby, then Manchester United fans can prepare to skip this in advance game...

But... Facing the counterattack just now, he finally pointed to the middle circle.

The goal is valid!

What can he do?
In Liverpool's counterattack, they didn't even have physical contact with the Manchester City players. Could Oliver judge them for an early foul?
Or... can it be said that the Liverpool No. 8 was unsportsmanlike, and his teammate was injured and fell to the ground and continued to attack without sympathy? -
After seeing the referee's gesture, Long Shute immediately came to Sturridge's side.

"Sorry, Daniel."

He knelt on one knee on the turf, and the team doctor not far away even trotted up.

Sturridge waved at him and was turned over by the team doctors.

Like the systematic analysis, he couldn't continue the game.

Liverpool had to make substitution adjustments in the 26th minute.

Long Shute patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly:
"Go down with peace of mind, we won't let you sacrifice in vain."

-

Sturridge:

"Boss, I think I can rescue it. For example, what kind of cheat is yours?"

Long Ritian:
"I think... your vitreous constitution can't be changed anymore."
