Two-thirds of the way into the game, the singing of the away fans, who were far less than one-tenth of the home fans, still dominated the entire Theater of Dreams.

Unlike the experience he has accumulated since the first day of professional football, Li Liang understands that he is facing an unprecedented predicament.

Even if there is a certain gap between the level of the game against Real Madrid in Cardiff from time to time, and even the two-legged fierce battle against Juventus, the current game is a new dilemma for Li Liang.

One of the most dazzling strikers in the Premier League in recent years, known as the Little Monster, worth nearly 100 million - but this is indeed a big man who prefers the ball at his feet, or among England's strikers who are more than 1.9 meters tall, this is a center forward with a relatively unremarkable head.

Two frontcourt attackers hailed as England's hope for the future, one of whom was even hailed as a British star – yet neither of them could disrupt the opposition defence alone.

There's also that star-studded but always missable defence, and thankfully David De Gea, who is one of the best in the world today – so it's not easy to concede just two goals.

Tang Meng's tone was a little difficult: "Unlike when we were in Monaco, we can see through some details that Mourinho has not completely kneaded Manchester United's stars into a whole.

Manchester City look more efficient and consistent, and they are more efficient up front!

In the face of such an opponent, without the wholehearted support of his teammates, it will be difficult for even Li Liang to create miracles......"

The barrage on major live broadcast platforms is also full of pessimistic arguments.

"At least this season......

There is only one real champion in Manchester, and Manchester City deserves it! ”

"There are too many stars in Manchester United, and these people are arrogant and obviously don't listen to Li Liang's command!"

"Two fists are hard to beat four hands, how long can Li Liang last like this?!"

……

Without thinking about playing the role of a lonely hero, nor about playing the role of a savior like a god again, Li Liang just wanted to win now.

In the 15 minutes since the kick-off of the second half, the movement and passing of Manchester City's players have always made Li Liang feel something.

After being successfully intercepted by Kompany twice in a row, Li Liang finally understood that Manchester City had been trying to read Manchester United's intentions all along!

Pep Guardiola guessed all his intentions and those of his teammates right from the start!

This astonishing discovery made Li Liang feel like an initiation-

Why is it that Manchester City, who insist on pressing high, can always block Manchester United's attacking line in the first place?

Why did his opponent always take advantage of the opportunity to play a high-quality counterattack in several attempts to organize an attack?

Why do Vincent Kompany and his team-mates always know what to do next for their players on the pitch?

Li Liang felt that he was getting closer and closer to the answer-

In the 62nd minute, Li Liang returned to the backfield to receive the ball, and he immediately began to cooperate with Matic, and successfully bypassed De Bruyne and Fernandinho after two consecutive two-to-one, and got closer and closer to Manchester City's 30-meter area! strip

Pep Guardiola was still holding back and waving his hand in command, with the City players on the pitch quickly occupying every line of potential threat across the backfield.

Li Liangdong watched the fire, and he believed that his opponents had done it to the extreme.

Of course, he couldn't guess that Guardiola, with the help of his assistants, broke down all of United's attacking routines in meters.

Little did he know that thanks to the efforts of Manchester City's huge data team, all his runs from his first game in Monaco to the present were reflected in Manchester City's tactical lessons in the form of big data.

And the Manchester City players are getting more and more confident after every successful disintegration of the Red Devils' attack and every time they defuse Li Liang's impact!

A group of Manchester City players who are almost as fast as their opponents, not jumping high, and not physically strong enough have almost perfectly suppressed the Red Devils until now, and what has come back behind them is an unimaginable effort!

The Magic Bird is already discussing with Faria about a replacement.

Since everything is irretrievable, it is better to look for the positives in the mess - they are discussing whether to simply replace the little guy like McTominay to get a feel for the atmosphere in advance.

Li Liang's thinking speed was much faster than he thought, and he finally guessed an approximation.

Compared to Manchester City, who were completely defeated by Monaco last season, the Blue Moon Army in front of them is close to completing the ultimate evolution.

He doesn't know if this is the most perfect football in Guardiola's mind -

Fight against the beastly physique with extraordinary foot technology -

Use awareness and faster reflexes to dismantle all kinds of highly aggressive confrontations and collisions.

In other words, if you really want to do something, if you really want to prove to these new teammates, even if there is only one minute left, everything is still possible, and there is still hope -

Then you have to smash such a "perfect" football yourself!

Da Kui's eyes widened suddenly, and his voice trembled a little: "Dong...... Dongzi!

Look at Ryoko! ”

Li Liang flashed in front of them.

Da Kui then said in a trembling voice: "Do you remember the fight we had in the 10,000-person stadium?

It was the time I broke my hand—"

Dongzi shouted in a low voice: "Of course I remember!" ”

Da Kui pointed at Li Liang: "...... Do you remember how Ryoko stopped those brutes?

That's how he looked at him! ”

Li Liang had already run away, and Dongzi didn't see the kind of eyes that Da Kui said.

Shewa recovered to pick up the ball near the halfway line, dodged and then cleverly dribbled past Nemanja Matic, and Sane, who also retreated, patiently reversed his feet in succession, and the ball got closer and closer to United's 30-metre area.

Li Liang waved his hand and shouted as he ran: "Everyone come together!" ”

Only he saw that Xiwa must be looking for an opportunity to connect directly with Jesus in the penalty area!

Raheem Sterling started to run back on the edge of the box, Gabriel Jesus pressed Rojo at the offside line, and Shiva once again played the ball to Sane.

In the next second, the players of the blue moon found at the same time, and several Manchester United players all pounced-

In Li Liang's roar, his teammates began to act in unison.

The Red Devils players, including Li Liang, know that this may be the last time that their No. 7 will overdraw everyone's trust in him.

In other words, last season's brilliant results also have an expiration date, and one more mistake is enough to make it all completely expired.

Sane has been deftly dodging the ball with his left foot, while observing Xiwa's position with his peripheral vision, and he knows that Xiwa has been patiently waiting.

They didn't expect to wait for Li Liang!

Lingard slammed into Sane from the side, who had already made a sharp stop to get out of the way.

Nemanja Matic's interference with his long legs forced Sane to do an extra set of ball-guarding maneuvers -

The old lord suddenly yelled: "Yes!

That's it! ”

The surprised Beckham and Bart saw it at the same time, and Li Liang saw the time and strode forward to intercept it!

Just like Kompany did with Li Liang before -

Between Sane's two moves, Manchester United's No.7 quickly fell to the ground!
