Chapter 129 Old Trafford Battlefield ③ Substitute



Chapter 129 Old Trafford Battlefield ③ Substitute
The hour hand moves forward by 1 minute.

Li Rui and Alan Lennon had no time to feel jealous about Cristiano Ronaldo's wonderful falling leaves. After warming up, the two stood on the sidelines and waited for the tactical arrangement of the head coach Eddie Gray. Eddie Gray They just wanted two people to warm up, and didn't say who they wanted to play. Judging from the current situation on the court, it seemed that they would only replace Pennant, who was out of control.

"Aaron, after you play, pay attention to try more on the wing, use your speed to attack, and try to open up space." Eddie Gray noticed that Cristiano Ronaldo, who replaced Giggs, performed very well. Active, Manchester United's offensive efficiency has improved a lot, but, correspondingly, there may be more gaps in Manchester United's defense, so it depends on whether they can be caught by Leeds United.Defensive counterattack?That's not how Leeds United play, at least not Eddie Gray's Leeds United.

Alan Lennon nodded, with an excited look on his face, "Got it, boss."

Li Rui's face turned bitter. When he heard that the head coach was arranging Lennon to play, he seemed to have nothing to do with him. However, he was not reconciled. He walked away like a frog being roasted on the fire. Walking up and down, jumping up and down a few times, the purpose is obvious, to remind the head coach to pay attention, silently expressing a meaning, 'and me, me, I'm done warming up too'.

Seeing Li Rui dangling in front of his eyes, Eddie Gray smiled, with a scheming look, "What's the matter LEE, haven't warmed up yet?"

"No, no, boss, I'm ready." Li Rui, who was still bouncing around, suddenly became quiet, "I can't wait, boss."

"Haha, the fighting spirit is very strong." To be honest, Eddie Gray still admires Li Rui very much. In his plan, this young Chinese player has a very important position, "The progress of the Portuguese kid just now You saw the ball too, he's the same size as you, well, 100 days older than you, not a bad boy."

How could Li Rui have the heart to discuss the age of Cristiano Ronaldo with the head coach here? He has never thought about it. It is wise to use aggressive methods, but the young man is still unconvinced, "If I can play, I will definitely not be inferior to that guy."

"Okay, after you play, replace Michael Ricketts, there is no other request, try to shoot more."

Li Rui just complained casually. Naturally, he didn't expect that the head coach would suddenly change two people before the end of the first half.

"What? Not ready?"

Li Rui came to his senses with a cry, "Haha, boss, it's okay, haha." As he said that, he quickly took off his yellow vest, twisted his buttocks and swayed his long legs on the sidelines.

Eddie Gray looked at Li Rui's excited look and smiled proudly. He just wanted to use the impact of Li Rui and Alan Lennon to surprise Manchester United before the end of the first half. When he was playing, he noticed that these two guys were eager to fight today, and what was even more rare was that he didn't see any nervous expressions from the two guys, but only the desire for the game.

…………

In the 41st minute of the game, Albertini's pass, Alan Smith in the penalty area was pressed by Rio Ferdinand, barely took off, but deflected the ball. This is the end of the first half of the Leeds United game. When the third shot.

Dead ball, Leeds United substitution.

Exit Pennant, enter Alan Lennon.

Exit Michael Ricketts, enter Li Rui.

"Look, something new happened on the sidelines, Eddie Gray made a substitution towards the end of the first half, two substitutions were used up at once, Alan Lennon replaced Pennant Haha, I bet, if Eddie Gray keeps the Nottingham boy on the court for one more minute, we will enjoy a boxing match." The local commentator in Manchester gloated, and did not forget to continue to sarcasm Leeds United. Offensive line, "We saw the Chinese coming on, he replaced Michael Ricketts who had zero shots in the first half, so Eddie Gray really thinks it will work?"

…………

Li Rui clenched his fists on the sidelines, his heart was filled with excitement, and he shouted to cheer for himself, "Come on, Li Rui, come on! Everyone is watching you, mom and dad are watching you too, come on, big stage Waiting for you! That Cristiano Ronaldo is waiting for you! You are no worse than him!"

Eddie Gray walked up to Li Rui and patted him on the shoulder, "LEE, are you nervous? This is Old Trafford!" After speaking, he walked away.

Leeds United assistant coach Gustavo Poyet looked at Eddie Gray in surprise, "You will make him more nervous."

The head coach of Leeds United smiled strangely, "I don't think so, just watch."

Of course Gustavo Poyet didn't believe it, he glanced at Li Rui, nothing changed, of course he didn't notice, Li Rui calmed down slightly after hearing Eddie Gray's words, The originally manic and nervous emotions calmed down and became rational. What remained unchanged was the passion and excitement in my heart.Just know how to control your emotions.

'This is Old Trafford! ' Li Rui chanted the words over and over again.

…………

Alan Lennon and Pennant, who looked very bad, high-fived and ran towards the field.

Michael Ricketts also looked disappointed. Of course he knew that the rare start in this game was an important opportunity for him, but he didn't grasp it. It would be very difficult to get the chance to start in the future.

At this time, Li Rui, of course, did not notice the disappointment of his teammate who was replaced by him. He hugged Michael Ricketts, then bent down and touched the turf of the Old Trafford stadium, and then strode into the field. , this dream theater with great glory!

When Li Rui was running towards the stadium, he paused for a moment, looked towards the stands, and looked at this famous stadium. Countless arms were waving, the flag of Manchester United was waving, and the fans of Manchester United were waving in his ears. Harsh boos, this is the greatest courtesy for Leeds United players to play!

'Here is Old Trafford, now, here is my stage! '

…………

"LEE, let's play! This is a historic moment. This is the first Chinese player in the history of Leeds United. I hope this young man can surprise us." Leeds commentator Williams still sent blessings to Li Rui , anyway, even faintly, he still had a feeling that maybe, there would really be a surprise.

Scholes' long-range shot was embraced by Carson, and the Leeds United goalkeeper threw the ball to attack. After three or two kicks, the ball reached Albertini's feet, and Albertini took two steps behind.When Roy Keane came up to grab the ball, he passed the ball out to find Li Rui. It was a half-high ball, and the ball was a bit fast.

Jemba, who was not far from Li Rui, rushed over immediately. The Cameroonian was very fast, like a black panther, vicious. It seemed that he planned to grab the ball when Li Rui stopped the ball and was not on his feet. .

Tens of thousands of fans in the stands of the entire Old Trafford stadium saw the next scene.

…………

Facing the falling ball, Li Rui looked up at the ball, raised his right foot slightly but did not stop the ball, but let the football fly past his right foot.Just when the Manchester United fans thought that Li Rui made a mistake in stopping the ball, they faintly let out a few laughs, the football fell in time, and everyone saw the young man who looked a little green, with unusually chic movements, using his left foot The tip of the toe turned upwards, and with a light flick, the ball was lifted up beautifully!

Immediately afterwards, Li Rui landed his right foot on the ground, raised his left foot, and knocked the jumping football with the outside of his foot. Amid a loud and neat exclamation from the stands of Old Trafford, the ball fell from the top to the ground. The snatched Jemba flew over to the right side, and at the same time, Li Rui stepped on the ground with his right foot, went around from the left side of Jemba, and chased after the ball!
The ball is divided!

Amazing audience!

Boos at Old Trafford!
The camera at the scene closely followed the back of the white No. 11... The shadow of the setting sun cast a free and easy silhouette, which was very dynamic.
