Salah's performance was indeed outstanding. After scoring this goal, he almost completed an assist to help Liverpool expand their lead.

Fortunately, Manchester City's defense withstood the pressure this time and did not make any more mistakes.

A few minutes later, Haaland completed his warm-up and was substituted on.

When Liverpool saw that Manchester City's substitute was a young boy who was not even 18 years old, they felt that Manchester City had run out of tricks.

"Who is this guy? Why haven't I heard of him before?"

"It is said that he is the son of Haaland Sr., so he is considered the second generation of football!"

"Oh, so he's his son. So, this kid got into Manchester City through the backdoor?"

Haaland Sr. once played for Manchester City. Sending his son to Manchester City does give people the impression that he is a relative of the two.

After Liverpool fans learned about this inside story, they looked down on Haaland more and more, and even thought that Guardiola was crazy to send such a guy who came in through the backdoor.

Haaland has not played many times for Manchester City this season, and most of the time he only appeared when the game lost suspense.

Having never experienced such a high-intensity game, he was unable to quickly adapt to the rhythm of the game after he came on the court. He even made mistakes one after another and made several embarrassing mistakes.

"Boy, go down and have a rest. This is not the place for you!"

After completing a successful defense, Liverpool's defenders began to taunt Haaland.

In his opinion, this kid was simply a stepping stone sent by the opposing coach to highlight his own greatness.

Compared with him, each of Liverpool's defenders looked like a world-class defender and played with such ease.

"Haha, he's going to cry!"

"Oh, this kid is going to cry for his mother!"

In the stands, seeing Haaland's mistake, those who had originally had concerns about Guardiola's substitution, worrying whether Haaland would be Guardiola's surprise weapon, completely dispelled their concerns and followed the group of people who laughed at Haaland, and laughed unscrupulously.

"Haha, Manchester City is a bit funny. What are they planning to do by sending someone like this?"

"This guy feels like an undercover agent on our side. He is here to cause trouble!"

Taking advantage of Haaland's mistake, Liverpool got several opportunities to counterattack after stealing the ball, although these attacks were defended by Manchester City.

But his mistakes still caused a lot of trouble for Manchester City, not only in defense, but also in offense.

Haaland's position on the field is a forward. He is supposed to shoot and score. If he made a mistake and lost the ball, it means that all the hard work of Manchester City in advancing and passing the ball before was in vain, which is a big blow to the team's morale.

"Sorry sorry, my!"

Haaland had a very good attitude of admitting his mistakes. After the mistake, he immediately took the responsibility on himself and sincerely apologized to his teammates.

Seeing that he was so good at admitting his mistakes, even if his teammates had complaints in their hearts, they would not be able to say it out loud at this time.

However, many people began to doubt whether the coach's substitution was reasonable.

According to their original plan, Haaland would not be substituted, but the head coach suddenly overturned the previous plan and replaced him with a new player who was not in the plan, which caught them off guard.

"After receiving the ball, be decisive. Either pass it or shoot it. Don't hesitate!"

Lin Quan walked up, patted Haaland on the shoulder, looked him in the eyes and said to him:

"Also, pay attention to the referee's penalty standards and use your body reasonably to gain an advantage!"

Hearing Li Linquan's words, Harland's eyes lit up and he nodded heavily, "I understand. Thank you, Boss!"

Lin Quan glanced at Haaland. He was not sure whether this guy really understood it or not, but after making several mistakes in a row and being ridiculed by opposing players and even fans, he was still able to maintain this mentality and not be stage fright or retreat. This kid is indeed not simple.

Just for this reason, Lin Quan decided to give him another chance.

Seeing Haaland making mistakes one after another, Liverpool became more and more contemptuous of him and relaxed their defense against him.

In their opinion, after Haaland made a series of mistakes, Manchester City might not continue to pass the ball to him. Even if they really passed the ball to him, such a big fool could not do anything.

Things seemed to be pretty much what they thought. Although Haaland was very active in running in the frontcourt and fighting with the opponent's defenders in the penalty area, he tried to find opportunities.

But his teammates seemed to have lost trust in him and never passed the ball to him again.

Even Lin Quan, when he had the ball, preferred to pass it to more trustworthy teammates such as De Bruyne, or simply do it himself, with no intention of passing it to Haaland.

This further strengthened the Liverpool players' view that Haaland had been abandoned, so they became more lax in defending him.

In the 80th minute of the second half, seeing that time was running out, and as he consciously did not pass the ball to Haaland, the opponent's defense against Haaland was extremely lax. Lin Quan realized that the time was almost up.

In that case, let Haaland give you a surprise!

In the 81st minute, Manchester City's attack hit the left side. Lin Quan tried to cut inside with the ball, but was blocked by several opponents and was forced to dribble towards the bottom line. The opponent's full-back was chasing him closely, and the central defender was staring at De Bruyne who was coming in from behind.

The other central defender adjusted his position and stood closer to the goal to assist the goalkeeper in controlling the landing point of the football and blocking the opponent's shooting angle.

The Liverpool players naturally ignored Manchester City striker Haaland, because in these ten minutes, Haaland had become a transparent man.

What made them relax their vigilance was that when Lin Quan dribbled the ball to the bottom and prepared to cross the ball, Haaland's positioning was not good. Although the Liverpool players did not deliberately mark him, he himself stood in the middle of four Liverpool players. Even if the ball flew towards him, it was difficult for him to receive the ball.

However, just when Liverpool's vigilance against Haaland was at its lowest, Haaland made a move.

He started quickly and moved to the middle of the penalty area where there was the largest space and it was easiest to control the landing point. At the same time, he made a retreat movement to shake the defensive player behind him.

When Lin Quan passed the ball, Haaland judged the path of the ball at the first time, swung his legs quickly, and volleyed the ball into the upper left corner of the goal before the two central defenders of Liverpool closed the door.

Karius, standing in the near corner, had no way to deal with this close shot because the ball was too fast and the angle of the shot was too tricky. He had no time to react. He only raised his arm symbolically and did not even complete the save before the ball had already gone into the net.

All the Liverpool players on the field were stunned, and so were the Liverpool fans in the stands.

How could this big guy who makes frequent mistakes and is good for nothing score such a beautiful goal?

The goal just now required an extremely keen sense of goal, excellent shooting skills and strong psychological quality to score.

Although Liverpool's two central defenders did not specifically mark Haaland, they blocked him in the first place. If Haaland had been a little slow in handling the ball, he would have no chance to shoot.

But Haaland was extremely decisive and volleyed the ball directly into the air without wasting a single minute!

After confirming that his shot had gone in, Haaland excitedly rushed to the sidelines, took off his jersey as he ran, revealing the vest underneath, which seemed to be covered with words.

He ran to the sidelines, turned his back to the camera, and showed the words on his vest to audiences around the world - Remember my name, Erling Haaland!

He seemed to be introducing himself to fans all over the world in this way, so that everyone could remember his name! On the sidelines, Guardiola happily applauded Haaland.

This kid finally lived up to his trust. To be honest, Guardiola was actually a little worried when he saw him making mistakes one after another before.

He was worried that the boy wouldn't be able to handle the pressure and his performance would get worse and worse.

Now it seems that my worries were unnecessary, this kid was born with a big heart.

Very good, in that case, we can consider increasing his strength in future games.

In the stands, old Haaland, his wife and several children were as happy as children when they saw Haaland score a goal. They wanted to let the whole world know that that was his son.

The son's starting point is higher than his father's, and he is also more talented.

This made him full of expectations for his son's future, hoping that he could grow up thoroughly in Manchester City and become a towering tree.

If there was anyone who was most depressed by Haaland's goal, it would be Liverpool's defenders.

They still couldn't believe that this seemingly useless guy could actually score such a beautiful goal.

They must have guessed it , right? Yes, that must be the case! If not, wouldn't it make them look incompetent?

This was something they absolutely could not accept! So they decided to give Haaland more "caring care" after the game resumed! Haaland's goal put the two sides back on the same starting line again, but Liverpool was obviously very dissatisfied with this result.

While the game was not over yet, they immediately launched a fierce attack on Manchester City after the game resumed, trying to seize this last chance and expand the score again.

If they go to Etihad with a score of 2:2, their chances of advancing to the semi-finals would probably be less than 30%.

So they have to attack and have to take the lead.

The opponent's intention was too obvious, and Manchester City was well prepared.

They stayed behind the fence and defended tightly, not giving Liverpool any chance.

Liverpool failed to break through for a long time, and the players began to become more and more impatient.

In the 87th minute, after several passes from the outside, Liverpool had no way out against Manchester City's impenetrable defense and had to let Salah try to break through with his personal ability.

Salah's personal ability is indeed very strong, but it is not strong enough to take on Manchester City's entire defense line alone.

He had just passed Manchester City's full-back, and before he could make the next move, the ball under his feet was poked away.

After Van Dijk intercepted the ball, he immediately passed it to Lin Quan who returned to the penalty area line. There were people behind Lin Quan and he couldn't turn around immediately.

But he saw Walker, the right back facing him, so he immediately passed the ball to Walker and pointed his finger towards the front court, signaling Walker to kick the ball.

Walker didn't think much about it and followed Lin Quan's instructions.

Walker kicked the ball high and far, and the ball flew towards Liverpool's half. Seeing this, the attacking Liverpool players retreated one after another.

But someone is faster than them! When Walker passed the ball, Liverpool defender Lorenzo was ahead of Haaland in terms of position.

But Haaland relied on his super explosive power and speed to quickly catch up with the opponent! Lorenzo was shocked. He didn't expect the big guy to be so fast! He was so scared that he hurriedly tried to stop the opponent.

But he felt as if he had hit a tank and was pushed away! He had intended to interfere with and hinder the other party's running, but he didn't expect that his center of gravity would be deviated instead.

Lorentz lost his balance and although he did not fall to the ground, he staggered a few times, which greatly reduced his speed. He was quickly overtaken by Haaland and the distance between them widened.

Karius rushed out immediately . The opponent had just scored a goal against him a few minutes ago. He must not let him score a second goal.

If he allowed such an unknown person to score two goals against him, he would not only become the sinner of the team, but also a stepping stone for the other team to become famous.

Young players like Haaland are limited by the small number of games and lack experience in one-on-one duels with goalkeepers. Therefore, when they see the opponent's goalkeeper attacking, they may feel nervous and make mistakes.

As long as he makes a mistake or fails to make the most decisive choice in the first place, Karius will have the opportunity to block the opponent's one-on-one shot.

However, Karius's calculations were wrong.

Haaland does not have much experience in one-on-one situations, but he has strong psychological qualities.

After seeing the opponent's goalkeeper attacking, Haaland chose to shoot immediately without any hesitation, even though he had not entered the penalty area at this time.

But the further he goes inside, the closer he is to the goalkeeper and the smaller the angle of his shot.

The probability of scoring is obviously the highest when you shoot at the largest angle and when you have the greatest confidence.

Because of his height, Haaland's footwork, physical flexibility and dribbling ability are far inferior to those of players like Lin Quan.

This is his own weakness, he knows it very well, so he will not take the risk of passing the opponent's goalkeeper.

Karius didn't expect Haaland's shot to be so decisive, and it was a low shot that made him very uncomfortable.

Although he stretched out his legs to intercept the ball immediately, he still failed to touch the ball. The ball rolled accurately into the goal frame, and the score became 2:3. Manchester City completed the reversal.

And Haaland also scored the first double in his career in the Champions League!

In just ten minutes, he scored two goals as a substitute.

The 17-year-old Haaland became famous in one battle! (End of this chapter)
