Revive Liverpool

Chapter 45 Reina's Last Match

After negotiating with Benfica about the transfer of David Luiz, Li Nan discussed with the Benfica team whether it is possible to postpone the transfer and announce it on January 1, so that Liverpool can prepare for Reina's departure. The team's substitute goalkeeper still needs some time to train.

The Benfica team felt that they had nothing to do. It didn't matter if Reina came one day earlier or one day later. After all, the transfer contract was signed.

So Benfica agreed to wait until January 1 to announce the transfer.

Seeing that the Benfica team agreed, Li Nan felt that the transfer of David Luiz was almost completed, so he asked the team's transfer personnel to leave Lisbon and return to Liverpool to help the team with another transfer job-Suarez's transfer.

But Li Nan did not go back directly, but found Vieira, the chairman of Benfica.

The two met and hugged warmly.

Li Nan said: "I didn't expect it, it was our Liverpool who won David Luiz."

Vieira replied: "I really didn't expect it, but the price you paid for this David Luiz is a bit high."

"The team's main goalkeeper, Reina, has been sold to us. He is the winner of three Premier League Golden Gloves. You are willing to buy it. How can I not be willing to buy you David Luiz?"

Li Nan laughed and said, "I don't care about that. Anyway, you transferred David Lewis to us. Tell me, have you considered giving me anything?"

Vieira said: "Give you what? Why should I give you something, I didn't bet you before that if David Luiz moved to Liverpool."

Hearing Vieira's words, Li Nan said slightly annoyed, "Then you are not being kind. In order to complete this deal, I even transferred Reina to you. I have lost a lot. You have to compensate me no matter what."

Vieira saw that Li Nan had begun to lose face, so he said, "That's all right, for your loss, if our team has any talented players in the future, I can call you during the transfer. If you are interested, you can also participate. I will definitely transfer to you at the same price."

Li Nan thought that you are an old fox, and you even called me to participate in the competition. I think you are trying to take advantage of Liverpool to raise the price. What a lion, it’s really insidious!
But Li Nan didn't expect Vieira to give him a lot of benefits at first. Although the benefits he is giving now are almost tasteless, at least there are still some benefits. Maybe it will be useful in the future, and it is okay.

"Okay, since you are so stingy, I can only do this. I really didn't expect you to be so stingy."

After drinking with Vieira, Li Nan left Benfica alone and returned to Liverpool.

Li Nan began to prepare for Reina's transfer. Before that, Li Nan talked to Reina about the transfer and told him that the team might transfer him. Reina didn't say much, but hoped to go to a team that could participate in the Champions League all year round.

After Li Nan agreed, Reina left.

In the few games after talking with Reina about his transfer, Liverpool has not had a clean sheet for a long time. Obviously, after Li Nan told Reina about the transfer, the matter about his transfer has affected his state.

Now Reina has a clear transfer target, and Benfica is more in line with his requirements.

However, Li Nan did not decide to tell him now that the team is about to usher in the game. If he told Reina now, if his mentality went wrong again during the game and the team lost, then Li Nan would be more responsible.

Let's wait for the team to finish the game first!

On January 1, Liverpool ushered in their 26th round of the Premier League make-up match, sitting at home against Fulham.

In this game, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard finally ended the three-game suspension period. After his comeback, he replaced Lucas, who had a thigh injury, in the starting lineup.

And this game is Reina's last game in Liverpool.

I hope that Reina can have a good performance and draw a perfect end to his career in Liverpool.

After the start of the game, although Liverpool took the initiative for most of the first half of the game and took the lead in the number of shots, Fulham only completed 2 shots, but they were very threatening.

In the 29th minute, defender Martin Kelly passed the ball and was intercepted by the opponent's Dempsey, and then the latter took advantage of the opportunity to take a strong shot from the edge of the penalty area and was caught by Reina.

Then Andy Johnson passed the ball from the left, and Dembele shot from 12 yards without any defense.

After the end of the first half, the two teams entered the lounge with a score of [-]-[-].

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Fulham played better than Liverpool, the number of shots gradually increased, and there were more opportunities to threaten Reina's goal.

In the 52nd minute, Torres shot in front of the penalty area was blocked by Hangeland and hit the right post. Then Fulham defender Panthill made a clearance but accidentally hit the ball into his own goal. With an own goal, Liverpool took the lead [-]-[-].

In the 59th minute, Panthill, who lost an own goal, hoped to make up for it. He made a cross from the right and helped Dempsey complete a beautiful sideways volley shot, but Reina still held the ball firmly.

At the last moment of the game, the Fulham team had more balls from both sides. Aaron Hughes once had a very good header and almost ran to the dead corner, but Reina's performance today can be said to be very brilliant. After judging the direction of the ball, he flew and dived to rescue the ball. An extreme save lifted the ball out of the baseline.

In the 90th minute, Fulham's Dembele waited for an opportunity to shoot coldly in the melee, and could almost complete a lore, but still could not escape Reina's control.

In the final game, Liverpool won the game with Panthill's own goal and the excellent performance of their own goalkeeper Reina.

Reina played well in this game.

After winning this game, Liverpool has reached the fifth position in the league, and the team is quite close to the Champions League, just around the corner.

On the second day after the game, Li Nan found Reina.

Li Nan said to Reina: "The team has completed your transfer transaction. You will be transferred to Benfica in the Portuguese Super League. Benfica is still in the Champions League. I don't know what you think of this team."

Reina said: "Okay, I have no problem, then when will you announce the completion of the transfer?"

Li Nan replied: "January 1, the last day of the winter transfer."
