Chapter 478 Winning the First Championship in 2016

On the sidelines, Liverpool's head coach stood up from the coaching seat, his eyes fixed on Lin Quan who was running with the ball! He felt a huge threat, the opponent was very fast, and Liverpool's players failed to stop him from speeding up in the first place, which made Klopp's restriction tactics for Lin Quan completely ineffective.

Damn it, why does he still have so much energy at this time?

Klopp was full of doubts. The game had been going on for more than 80 minutes and the other Manchester City players had exhausted their energy. It was now very difficult for them to even run on the field.

But he didn't see any of these on Lin Quan.

This guy's physical energy seems to be inexhaustible, never used up, and he always maintains sufficient energy and fighting spirit.

This guy is really scary!

“Stop him!”

The Liverpool players were aware of the danger at this time and they all rushed towards Lin Quan. No matter what method they used, they had to stop him and never let him score the ball.

If Liverpool lose another goal at this time, there will be no way to turn the situation around!

Liverpool's players had already thought it through: if they could stop the ball, they would stop it; if they couldn't, they would foul. In any case, they had used foul tactics to deal with him many times before.

However, the situation this time is very different from before.

The reason why they were successful before was mainly because Lin Quan had just received the ball and had not had time to start.

But this time, Lin Quan's speed has been fully increased, and he is still accelerating, running faster and faster. This means that if Liverpool want to stop him, they can only do so by having someone who is faster than him or someone in front of him.

Liverpool is not without fast players on the wing, but it is already over 80 minutes and even the fastest horses can no longer run.

So they couldn't catch up with Lin Quan at all and could only follow behind him and eat dust.

If anyone wants to stop Lin Quan, they can only leave it to the defenders of Liverpool who are defending behind.

When Lin Quan dribbled the ball across the center line, there were only two people left in front of him, Liverpool's two central defenders Kolo Toure and Lucas.

Kolo Toure is Yaya Toure's older brother and also played for Manchester City for 4 years. The two had teamed up in Manchester City, which was a good story in the football world at that time.

Unlike Yaya Toure who is a professional player, Kolo Toure started out as a street football player.

To stand out on the baseball field, there must be something extraordinary about him.

Kolo is very experienced. Although he has never been teammates with Lin Quan, he has heard of Lin Quan's name from his younger brother a long time ago.

What's more, as a defender, studying how the best striker in the world plays football is simply a compulsory course for them.

Therefore, he knew very well that he could not stop Lin Quan alone.

Even two people can't do it! Therefore, he decisively stopped Lucas's blind rush, asked him to keep a suitable distance from him, retreated together, compressed Lin Quan's dribbling space, blocked Lin Quan's breakthrough route, and forced him to slow down! Although Van Dijk did not go to Liverpool, the defensive strategy adopted by Kolo was exactly what Van Dijk often used.

The difference is that Van Dijk used it alone, while the opponent used it together with two people.

The power of the two people working together is naturally greatly enhanced. If an ordinary forward encounters this situation, he would probably be at a loss. He would either lose his temper and shoot directly, or rush forward with the ball recklessly, and then be double-teamed by the two people and lose the ball.

However, to achieve this effect, there must be a prerequisite, that is, the two people must cooperate seamlessly.

Any slight mistake would become a huge loophole in front of a player of Lin Quan's level.

Unfortunately, both of them have this loophole!

Lin Quan did not panic when his opponent suddenly adopted this defensive strategy.

While dribbling the ball, he had already observed his two opponents. Lucas is 28 years old this year, at the prime of his life, and at his peak in all aspects.

But it’s different for Chloe. He is already 35 years old this year and is no longer as brave as he used to be.

The reason he lost his starting position in Manchester City was because he was old, his form declined, and he did not meet the team's requirements, so he was cleared out.

Now, two and a half years have passed since then, and his condition has further declined. Although he has more experience, no matter how rich his experience is, it is useless without sufficient condition to support it! Lin Quan took a glance and quickly locked on the target of the breakthrough.

While dribbling the ball at high speed, he suddenly shook his body, pretending to break through from the left side. Lucas subconsciously paused and moved to the left.

Just when Lucas' center of gravity changed, Lin Quan made a feint and broke through from Colo's side.

At this time, Lucas' right foot had already stepped out. After seeing Lin Quan's action, he was startled and quickly retracted his foot, ready to support his teammates.

However, he made the same mistake as Boateng, which was not noticing the change in his center of gravity.

He wanted to go to the right to provide support, but his body's center of gravity was shifting to the left. In the fight between the left and right sides, Lucas became another Boateng and fell to the ground with a thud.

This scene made the fans at the scene in an uproar. Without any physical contact, the opponent's defensive player fell down by himself. What kind of thing is this? Seeing that Lin Quan was going to break through him, Kolo was shocked and immediately prepared to block the position to prevent the opponent from breaking through easily.

As long as he could slow down the opponent's speed a little and wait for Lucas to come to support, everything would be fine.

However, just as he was thinking this, he saw out of the corner of his eye that Lucas fell flat on his face and tripped himself to the ground.

Kolo cursed his teammates in his heart, and he could only grit his teeth and go for it himself! He had already made plans, and he would fight for a yellow card, or even a red card, to stop Manchester City's attack.

However, the 35-year-old Kolo Toure is not as flexible as he was ten years ago.

He had good ideas in his head, but his body movements couldn't keep up with his brain.

Lin Quan seemed to have seen through his intention. After seeing Lucas fall and a gap appeared on the left, Lin Quan changed direction again and shook off Colo in an instant, creating a single-handed opportunity! Liverpool goalkeeper Mignolet had no choice but to attack, but he didn't expect that he would be passed by Lin Quan.

Lin Quan really dribbled past Liverpool this time, literally! After Lin Quan dribbled past the last Liverpool player, he easily scored, then spread his arms and ran along the baseline like a glider.

When he ran to the camera in the corner area, he roared, faced the camera, pointed at the captain's armband on his arm, and then pointed at the jersey number on his back!

That seems to mean, if you want to beat Manchester City, ask me first!

All the teammates rushed over at this time, and even the goalkeeper who was the farthest away ran across the entire stadium.

His teammates threw Lin Quan to the ground and piled up on top of him.

Although Guardiola has repeatedly warned players not to use such dangerous celebrations, which can easily cause accidental injuries to the players underneath.

However, the players were so excited that they had forgotten Guardiola's instructions.

Although it was just a small League Cup final, they felt like they were playing in the Champions League final.

This game was a huge test and even torment for most Manchester City players.

After a series of hard battles and insufficient physical reserves, the team also encountered a team that used a crazy dog ​​style of play. After this game, most people felt exhausted.

If it weren't for Lin Quan's goal at the last minute, which completely killed the suspense of the game, they felt that they really couldn't hold on any longer.

Although there was not much time left in the game, Liverpool's madness in the final moments could have allowed them to score just one goal, and the outcome of the game would have been completely different.

It’s a pity that Lin Quan’s goal killed this possibility, there is no if!

This is indeed the case. Lin Quan's way of scoring by running seventy or eighty meters with the ball from his own backcourt and passing all the opponent's players dealt a devastating blow to Liverpool's morale.

In fact, after playing for more than 80 minutes, their physical strength had seriously declined. The reason they were still able to form an attack on Manchester City was that they were holding on with one breath.

Now that the anger has been completely lost, it is naturally difficult for Liverpool to organize an attack like the one just now.

There was still hope of catching up if they were one goal behind, but if they were two goals behind and there were only a few minutes left in the game, how could they catch up unless a miracle happened? A few minutes later, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

In the end, after a hard-fought battle, Manchester City defeated Liverpool 2-0 at Wembley Stadium and won their first championship of the season.

After the game, Lin Quan's wonderful goal after a long run attracted heated discussion and attention from fans on the Internet.

Countless fans spontaneously forwarded the message to help spread it, and with the help of the Internet's terrifying broadcasting speed, it became popular all over the world in just one day.

"As expected of Lin Huang, he is the only one who has the ability to score this goal!"

"Indeed, he sprinted 70 to 80 meters, passed all the barriers, and even got past the goalkeeper. This dribbling ability is truly amazing. I can't help but admit it!"

"Perhaps Messi could do it in his prime, but he probably can't do it now because his explosive power is too poor!"

"And don't forget, when Lin Huang scored this goal, the game time had already passed more than 80 minutes. At this point in time, he still had such abundant physical energy to sprint at full speed. This is simply not a human being!"

"Emperor Lin is not tall, not strong, and looks ordinary, but he is a physical freak. I have watched so many of his games, and I have never seen him cramp or be substituted out due to lack of physical strength!"

"Haha, the brother above should have started paying attention to Lin Huang after he joined Manchester City. In the early years when Lin Huang was in Werder Bremen, he also had times when he was physically exhausted. He didn't have cramps very often, but he definitely did, and he would get injured at that time."

"Indeed, at that time, Emperor Lin was not as abnormal as he is now. Although he was very strong, he was still within the scope of humans. But now..."

“Tsk tsk, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten that the last time Emperor Lin was injured was probably the last time!”

"I'll listen to your words!"

"If you listen to a speech!"

"The current Lin Huang is so well-rounded, he can do anything. He can't run to death, he can't be kicked down, he has strong dribbling skills, he can break through fiercely, and he can pass accurately. He's like an all-around warrior with 360-degree vision!"

"Ahem, that's over. Lin Huang is not without weaknesses. At least his height limits his headers. It seems that Lin Huang hasn't scored a header this season?"

…

Is Lin Quan really invincible? It seems that he is not completely so! When playing poker at his teammate's house, Lin Quan was beaten to the point of doubting his life.

“I’m not going to play anymore. I keep losing. There’s no gaming experience at all!”

After playing for an hour and a half, Lin Quan's pockets were empty, having lost all of them to David Silva, Kroos and others.

De Bruyne is also a rookie in the field of poker like Lin Quan. He also lost everything and his face was even uglier than Lin Quan's.

"Haha, okay, the barbecue is ready, let's go eat first!"

David Silva's injury has almost recovered and he can now start recovery training.

He was not in the team during this period and was not very familiar with the situation within the team. He heard that some new players had joined and their performances were outstanding.

This made him worry about his main position, so he invited a few teammates to get together.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period. We finally made it through this intensive schedule!"

Manchester City's schedule over the past week was a devilish one, but after playing the League Cup final, they can finally take a breather.

Without the involvement of the League Cup, the remaining games of this season will be mainly concentrated in the three competitions of the League, Champions League and FA Cup.

They have a big lead in the league, so there is not much pressure, so the pressure is mainly in the Champions League and FA Cup.

These two events are interspersed in the league, and coupled with the national team games, the pressure on every player in the next few months will be greatly increased.

Manchester City has many international players. Some European countries are easier to travel to because the distance is relatively short, so the consumption during the journey is not too great.

But players from other continents, such as South America, are not so lucky.

Every time the national team has a match day, these South American players who are called up have to fly tens of thousands of kilometers and rush back to participate in the game.

The energy consumed during this journey might be even greater than the energy consumed during the competition.

Aguero's previous injury occurred after he finished playing for the national team.

This made the Manchester City club very dissatisfied, not because of the players, but because of the Argentine national team.

When it comes to unimportant games, there is actually no need to recall players from far away.

This will only increase their risk of injury and cause huge losses to the club!

After all, each of these players was bought by them at a high price.

However, the national team obviously does not care too much about the club's opinion.

Even players like Messi went back obediently, so why are you, Manchester City, special? I can recruit whoever I want, and it's none of your business? (End of this chapter)
