Belgium still has one final substitution adjustment. Although it seems difficult to recover after falling behind by two goals, Martinez, as the head coach, decided to try again. He replaced right back Meunier with Batshuayi to strengthen Aerial challenge in the penalty area.

England head coach Southgate made targeted adjustments. Joe Gomez replaced Sterling to increase the defensive height in the penalty area.

The adjusted Belgian formation became 334, giving people a desperate feeling. The three central defenders are Vertonghen, Kompany and Alderweireld, and the midfielders are De Bruyne, Witsel and Merten. Si, forwards Hazard, Lukaku, Batshuayi and Carrasco lined up.

England's 343 formation, with Sterling coming off the field and Joe Gomez coming on, gave the defense a sense of 631. The wing-backs Milner and Arnold retreated to the back line to serve as full-backs, while Dell and Henderson Playing midfielder with Harry Kane, only Li Qing is at the forefront in defense.

However, England's formation changes are very reversible. 641 can completely become 4411 when switching from defense to offense.

The restarted game has no choice for the Belgian players. Time is passing by second by second. If they want to maintain their hope of qualifying for the World Cup finals, they must score two goals in a row in the only time left, and they must defend without conceding a goal. situation, otherwise promotion will be completely hopeless.

Li Qing, who had already scored four goals, had a very simple job at the last moment of the game, which was to involve the three Belgian central defenders through running, forcing them to not directly participate in the attack. This is equivalent to saying that the Belgian attack can only be completed by the front seven.

Time passed by second by second, and soon it came to 90 minutes before the regular time. The fourth official was ready to wait for the time to end and hold up the stoppage time electronic board.

Hazard spiked the ball to his familiar right foot from the left. Arnold defended well and did not stumble. With the help of club teammate Henderson, Hazard forced the ball back to midfielder De Bruyne.

Harry Kane immediately got on the ball and did not give De Bruyne a chance to easily handle the ball. De Bruyne frowned. His physical fitness has dropped greatly since the game. Forcibly accelerating will definitely not work, so he has to cross sideways. To Witsel, who stepped forward to meet him.

Unexpectedly, Milner, who is accustomed to high-pressure play, had an advance prediction, and just in time for De Bruyne to pass the horizontal pass to Witsel, he extended his foot while running, and the football rolled towards him and was ready to receive it. Li Qing of the ball.

"aoaooaooaooaooooooo——"

The sky above the Luzhniki Stadium rang out with huge shouts from England fans subconsciously.

“This is your chance to kill the game completely!”

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei's voice suddenly rose an octave!

Laura, the commentator of Belgium's national sports TV station, saw the football rolling towards Li Qing and closed her eyes in pain: "It's over."

At the same time, Vertonghen rushed toward Li Qing aggressively. Unexpectedly, Li Qing seemed to have eyes in the back of his head and did not turn around to meet the ball. He pushed the arch of his left foot back toward the ball, and the football rolled forward against the ground. Accelerating captain Harry Kane.

After giving the ball to Li Qing, he ran back two steps to avoid Vertonghen's foul. He then used his left foot as the axis to complete two 90-degree clockwise turns, faced the direction of attack, and sprinted forward along the right sideline.

Vertonghen also wanted to retaliate against Li Qing, but Li Qing was very smart and dodged early. By the time Vertonghen should have turned around to defend his club teammate Harry Kane, it was already too late.

Harry Kane, who is proficient in ball-playing, pushed the arch of his left foot, and the ball was sent diagonally into the space behind Vertonghen.

Alderweireld did not dare to attack Li Qing, but chose to fight and retreat, waiting for the support of his teammates.

However...in addition to captain Kompany, there is also a lot of support!

But this time Alderweireld learned wisely and chose his position in the middle. Whether Li Qing wanted to break through from the outside or inside, he was able to make a judgment in the shortest time, and captain Kompany was in the middle to cover up the defense. , you can give a little distance, mainly to defend Li Qing's outside breakthrough.

The three of them quickly crossed the halfway line. Harry Kane, Vertonghen, Milner who came off the bench, and the tireless cannon Alexander ran wildly forward. Once this goal was scored, the rest of the game would be completely trash. time!

Li Qing brought the ball to the 40-meter area and slightly slowed down his forward dribbling speed, but Vertonghen still struggled to catch up. After all... the game had reached injury time.

At the moment he crossed the halfway line, the fourth official held up the five-minute injury time electronic sign.

"aooaooaooaoaooaoo——"

Accompanied by huge cheers from the audience, Li Qing brought the ball to the 35-meter area. Alderweireld was slightly closer, and he was afraid that Li Qing would choose a long shot in the blink of an eye.

The five-meter distance passed in an instant, and Li Qing's forward speed dropped to a very slow stage. Vertonghen seemed to see an opportunity to catch up with Li Qing.

Li Qing kept stepping on the bicycle with his feet, and his center of gravity changed greatly, giving Alderweireld the feeling that he might break through at any time.

At this moment, Harry Kane, who was following up at high speed from the middle, passed by Li Qing's left at high speed. Alderweireld and Kompany's pupils shrank, realizing that the situation was not good.

They finally realized why Li Qing slowed down...

I'm waiting for Harry Kane's support!

What about the facts?

Li Qing, who has a wide field of vision, originally wanted to join a team, but considering that his teammates should have a sense of presence, he waited for his teammates. However, what he was waiting for was not Harry Kyle, but... Milner who plugged in at high speed from the far end!

Harry Kane's forward thrust is too targeted, and the pass is likely to be intercepted by Alderweireld and Kompany, who are experienced in the game.

I saw Li Qing move the football to the left with the outside instep of his left foot. Everyone thought that Li Qing would pass the ball to Harry Kane. They saw him using the flexibility of his ankle to gently rub the inside of the instep of his left foot, and the football fell. To the space behind Kompany.

To be precise, it is the forward area of ​​the penalty area where the football flies from the attacking right rib to the attacking left rib.

Vertonghen, who was still three or four meters away from Li Qing, stopped in despair and looked at the English players following up at high speed from the far end.

The broadcast quickly caught up with China Channel 5 commentator He Wei shouting: "Old Comrade Milner!"

Kompany had already completed his turn and was chasing Harry Kane who was in the space behind Alderweireld. As a result, Li Qing's pass flew behind him...

With Li Qing's footwork, it is naturally impossible to make a mistake, so... there is only one possibility...

"It's over!"

Milner came on as a substitute in the second half and had no physical problems. He was not slow in winning the ball and broke into the penalty area. Goalkeeper Courtois had to abandon the goal and attack.

Milner, who received the ball, didn't want to take credit. He passed the ball sideways with the arch of his left foot. Harry Kane, who was running forward, pushed the arch of his right foot lightly. The football rolled against the ground towards the unguarded empty goal...

In the first minute of injury time, the scoreboard showed a score of 5:2!

Everyone knows that the game ends early!

"The ball has gone in! The ball has gone in! Harry Kane helped England completely kill the game in the first minute of injury time!"

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei shouted hysterically.
