Football: The strongest post-zero generation

The format of the Youth FA Cup is basically the same as that of the Senior FA Cup. The Senior FA Cup is a decisive game from the beginning to the final. The final is held at the new Wembley Stadium. The Youth FA Cup starts from the first round. The quarter-finals are all determined by a draw, and the venue is determined by drawing lots. The winner of the semi-finals and finals is calculated based on two rounds of home and away games.

The 1/16 finals between Manchester City U18 and Liverpool U18 at home is a decisive game. If the battle ends in a draw, the two sides will play a thirty-minute overtime. If the winner cannot be determined in overtime, the game will be Entering a brutal penalty shootout.

Of course, the 90 minutes of regular time are not over yet, and the distance between overtime and penalty kicks is still far away. Li Qing, the youngest in this game, naturally clenched his fists. Although his defense is not strong, he wants to rely on Single-handedly help the team advance to the top 16!

Agent Mendes had previously communicated with first-team coach Klopp, saying that Li Qing's current strength is a bit higher than that of U18 players, and there is little value in promoting to U23 for training, and he hopes to enter the first team.

If there is no place in the first team, then I hope the club will let Li Qing go to other teams to train.

Klopp made it clear that he would choose to stay in the FA Youth Cup. If he performs well, he can enter the first team. On the contrary, he will loan him out to teams that are willing to provide him with the opportunity to play.

Three goals can be said to be extremely outstanding, but Li Qing did not want to experience the feeling of losing, so he decided to help the team score another go-ahead goal within a limited time and advance to the top 16 of the FA Youth Cup.

Liverpool U18 head coach Neil Critchley made personnel adjustments before the game restarted. He replaced Glenn McCauley with Brewster to increase the tacit understanding between the frontcourt players and Li Qing.

The score returned to a balanced state, but time became less and less. Both sides became more cautious in attacking. Threat balls like those that Manchester City U18 continued to try some time ago were rarely passed. Obviously, they were worried about passes with high returns and low success rates. The opponent will see through it and launch a high-quality counterattack.

Of course, this is also related to the decline in physical fitness of the players. Once the football is cut off, it is difficult to have the energy to catch up again. Even if the catch-up is in time, what about next time?

Li Qing's physical fitness also declined, but the head coach did not assign him defensive tasks, so he was still able to sprint at a high speed after more than ten minutes into the game.

Manchester City U18 head coach Lee Carsley saw that Li Qing was still physically fit and realized that the situation might be very bad, so he took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to pull Foden to explain.

As a result, the 1/16 finals of the FA Youth Cup entered the slowest moment since the beginning of the entire game.

The game entered a slow pace, and the Liverpool U18 players got a rare chance to breathe. The situation became stalemate, and no one could do anything about the other.

Ten minutes passed quickly in a stalemate. The game reached the 85th minute, and all three substitutions available to both sides had been used up. Unfortunately, the stalemate score could not inspire the players' determination to score, resulting in the score There is always no way to make changes.

As the game time became less and less, Li Qing found that Manchester City U18's defense was becoming more and more sophisticated, especially his active attack on the right.

If he wanted to face goalkeeper A. Muric, he had to pass five levels and defeat six generals. With his current skills, dribbling and ball control values, it was difficult to do so, so he secretly bought two five-star technology cards in the system mall. Wait for opportunity before using.

The three star players, Sancho, Diaz and Foden, have been affected by the decline in physical fitness and their offensive enthusiasm has decreased. However, this does not mean that they do not want to attack, but they are accumulating physical energy and waiting for the opportunity to kill the game!

A goal during this period is tantamount to a sure win!

In the blink of an eye, another three minutes of the game passed. Diaz's dribbling in front of the penalty area was intercepted by Harvey White, and Liverpool U18 got the opportunity to switch from defense to offense.

According to the arrangements of head coach Neil Critchley, Football should go to Li Qing as soon as possible.

Dillman, who came on the bench, pounced on Li Qing immediately and fouled Li Qing before he could catch the ball.

The referee blew his whistle to signal Dillman for a foul.

Li Qing had a broad vision and saw that the Manchester City U18 players played back at a slower speed. He suddenly realized that this might be a good counterattack opportunity.

He quickly stood up from the ground, stopped the football that had fallen down and held it in his arms, and then quickly kicked it to Brewster who came on as a substitute.

Brewster and Li Qing seemed to have a natural understanding. He passed the football forward without any pause.

Dillman, who had committed the foul, was still telling the referee what to say when he suddenly heard a roar from behind: "Defense!"

At the same time, Dillman felt a strong wind coming from his side. He turned around and saw that...it was Li Qing, the most threatening player of Liverpool U18!

Oops!

Almost all Manchester City U18 players thought that Liverpool U18 would slowly take a free kick in the backcourt and run back slowly. It was not until Brewster kicked the ball to Li Qing that they suddenly realized something...

Li Qing moved the ball forward quickly. Lathibaudier, whose physical fitness was obviously declining, hit Li Qing from the side despite receiving a yellow card. However, he obviously underestimated Li Qing's speed and overestimated his own speed. The two There was no physical contact.

To outsiders, it looked more like Lathibaudier fell to the ground while running.

The two central defenders of Manchester City U18, T. Wilson and E. Francis, quickly returned to defense and kept a distance from each other. Midfielder Giovanni reached out to pull Brewster who was trying to connect.

Li Qing, who was dribbling the ball, could quickly distinguish the situation even without raising his head. He quickly dribbled the ball across the center line and took the initiative to find T. Wilson and E. Francis.

Manchester City's U18 backcourt was defending three against two, and head coach Lee Carsley felt irritated for a moment. When everyone's attention was on the court, he rushed to the sidelines and roared: "Foul!"
