Football: The strongest post-zero generation

Liverpool were drawn to Group C of Death, and manager Jurgen Klopp and most of the Liverpool players felt the pressure, but Li Qing was looking forward to the Champions League group stage that would start after the international break.

In fact, according to the schedule of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool, which returned to the Champions League after two years, has time to adapt, because the first round is home to the weakest Karabakh.

As long as they win in the first round, the next group stage against Atletico Madrid and Roma will go much smoother.

However, what Liverpool need to worry about is the red-blue clash before the start of the first round of the Champions League group stage, and the home game against the blue moon Manchester City.

This encounter will inevitably affect the next Champions League group stage.

Li Qing didn't have any worries about this, he was full of confidence!

After the draw and medal ceremony for the 2017-2018 Champions League group, the media first focused on the two groups of death drawn before focusing on the group stage of the World Cup, which was rekindled.

Li Qing reported to the designated hotel of the England national team with teammates Henderson and Milner, and in the process of preparing for the game, three transfer news about Liverpool attracted his attention.

Coutinho, who wanted to join Barcelona, got his wish, he joined with a floating clause of 125 million euros + 40 million euros, and Liverpool, who had a lot of cash, signed Van Dijk from Southampton before the end of the transfer window, with a transfer fee of 75 million pounds, which is converted into 84.5 million euros, setting a new record for the transfer fee of a defender in world football.

In addition, Oxlade-Chamberlain, who plays for Arsenal, joined for 40 million euros, which is equivalent to saying that he has just received a huge sum of money from Coutinho and has not yet reached the pockets of Southampton and Arsenal.

Li Qing, who saw the three transfer news, was a little surprised, according to the historical development trajectory, Coutinho only transferred to Barcelona in January next year, and Van Dijk joined Liverpool after Coutinho left, is it ...... Was it his little butterfly that caused the trajectory of history to change?

Thinking of this, Li Qing smiled, Van Dijk and Oxlade-Chamberlain joining is a good thing, it is good for the team, especially Van Dijk, his ability is what the Liverpool backline desperately needs.

The defensive skills of Clavan and Lovren are really anxious to watch, and the domestic league that has just ended is still fresh in my memory.

On September 1, the England team took a flight to Valletta, the capital of Malta, to prepare for the seventh round of the Ross World Cup group stage at the Malta National Stadium the next night.

What is surprising is that Li Qing, who performed well at the beginning of the season, did not appear in the starting list, and Kung Fu 5 commentator He Wei looked at England's substitute list and raised his eyebrows: "Li Qing is in excellent condition, why didn't Southgate put him in the starting lineup?"

Commentator Xu Yang said with a smile: "Presumably Southgate took into account that Li Qing is only sixteen years old, and he is preparing for the World Cup group stage just after the tense league, which is a challenge for the young, Malta is not a strong team, and it doesn't matter if Li Qing is not on it, the key is that the group stage of the next eighth round of home against Sri Lanka will be decisive." "

I don't know if Malta defended too well or England attacked too much, but at the end of the first half of the fifteenth minute, the scoreboard showed that the score was still 0:0.

England manager Southgate, who walked towards the players' tunnel, had a blue face, and Scotland had won 5-1 in Malta, and as an old member of the British family, there was no good way to do it away.

The England players, led by Harry Kane, were equally ugly, clearly unhappy with the first half that didn't open up.

Before the start of the second half, England were the first to make substitutions, with Li Qing, one of the brightest stars of the new season, coming on as a substitute for Raheem Sterling.

Sterling was very unhappy when he was replaced, but manager Southgate's wishes could not be disobeyed, so he had to sit on the bench depressed, cursing Li Qing in his heart: Don't score, don't score!

"Li Qing comes on as a substitute for Raheem Sterling!"

Kung Fu fans sitting in front of the TV heard the shouts of the commentator He Wei, and suddenly their spirits were lifted, didn't they stay up late to watch the World Cup qualifiers between England and Malta just to watch Li Qing play?

Li Qing's substitution was an immediate success, and against the Maltese national team, which is mostly amateur, he was able to make the most of his excellent foot skills.

He stopped and broke through to the penalty area with the ball, Maltese central defender Zerafa stretched his leg half a step slowly, just kicked Li Qing's left foot behind him, and the referee on duty decisively blew the whistle, and at the same time pointed to the penalty spot with his left index finger.

Through slow-motion replays, Zerafa did kick Li Qing, so the penalty was undisputed.

Captain Harry Kane, who took the penalty, scored to give England a 1-0 lead away to Malta.

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray suddenly raised his voice an octave: "Harry Kane scored the icebreaker goal, but 90% of the credit goes to Lee, it was his breakthrough with the ball that caused Joseph Zerafa to foul!"

'England opened the scoring at the start of the second half and the rest of the game will certainly be simpler......

Guest commentator Martin Taylor laughed.

As Martin Taylor said, England broke the deadlock and scored three goals in a row, scored by Li Qing, Harry Kane and substitute Jamie Vardy.

The four-goal lead did not satisfy the visitors England, who scored two more goals under the attacking rhythm of Li Qing, this time by Li Qing and substitute Marcus Rashford.

When the full-time whistle blew, England beat the home team Malta 6-0 to top the group with 19 points from six wins and one draw after seven rounds of group play.

England host Slovakia three days later and beat Slovenia 1-0 at home to finish second in the group with 15 points from seven games, five wins and two defeats.

At the end of the seven rounds of the 2018 Rose World Cup European Group F group stage, England topped the group with a four-point advantage, and because the points difference between the two teams is not large, they have a direct chance to qualify with three rounds left in the group stage, but it is obviously England who leads the points with the greatest chances.

If England beat Slovakia at home in the eighth round, then England, who are seven points ahead, will qualify for the Rose World Cup two rounds in advance, while Slovakia will win the game and have one point left between them.

After qualifying two rounds in advance and leaving the right to qualify in the final round, the England team is clearly hoping to beat Slovakia at home, and the England team returning to London has the same goal!

Beat Slovakia at home and qualify two rounds early!_
