Chapter 274 This is our mission battle
When the smoke of the Champions League cleared, the European leagues soon resumed their battles.
In the Premier League, for the powerful teams that are about to enter the winter devil's schedule, the period from November to mid-December is the best time to grab points.
Every year at the beginning of January, the Premier League teams will join the competition for the FA Cup. At that time, if they give up the two major domestic cup competitions early, there will be no European teams that can live a relatively healthy life.
After all, they only need to do a good job of rotation to ensure that the main players in the team do not get injured in the winter, and there is no additional pressure on the game.
But for the top four or even the top six teams, the pressure of domestic cup competitions and European competitions will pile up until the outbreak of winter. Just give up. It’s hard to explain to the fans, but if you don’t give up, you have to prepare for various cup games after the league. , The burden on the players is too great.
This is also the reason why every year after December, the top teams in the Premier League will more or less usher in a wave of injuries.
After all, players are human beings, not machines. After playing too many games, lack of rest, and the cold weather, injuries are inevitable.
For a better muscle strain, you can play again after a month of recuperation; for a worse injury to a joint or even a fracture, you will be reimbursed directly for the remaining half of the season.
Sheffield United is currently doing a good job on this point. They have started to rotate early. Players such as Bell and Joaquin have a history of frequent injuries. As long as the team doctor gives advice on rest, Naspi Germany will never send them to the game.
The performance of the two this season seems to have improved a lot compared to last season because of the rotation.
Not to mention Bell, since he became famous in the battle with Inter Milan, he has become a hot new star in the Premier League. It is expected by many people to play further this season.
Joaquin's outstanding performance is what surprised many people in the industry.
It is unbelievable that a 31-year-old Spanish veteran who entered the Premier League for the first time has performed similarly to David Silva in his prime.
Today's Joaquin doesn't have the lightning-fast speed of his youth, and he doesn't have the super ability to blow up a side lane by himself when he was in good form in the past.
But his rich experience and game reading ability, coupled with a coach Speed who can understand him, gave him a new life in the position of the front midfielder.
It is said that recently the head coach of the Spanish national team, Bosque, is also considering recruiting Joaquin back to the national team, wanting to see his performance in the world preliminaries.
Although it is just some rumors and has not been officially confirmed, the emergence of such rumors is enough to show that Joaquin has played brilliantly in the Premier League.
Today against Norwich, Joaquin will also start the game. As the Spanish national team is about to hold a friendly match with Panama, this league is very important for Joaquin.
It may not be possible to get the call-up of the head coach this time, but if the league is played well, at least it will make Bosque pay more attention to Joaquin. With attention, there is a chance.
As for Joaquin, he has been waiting for this day for a long time.
In the dressing room before the game, other Sheffield United players did not say anything extra to Joaquin. Everyone was joking as usual, and finally shouted slogans in Li Mo's speech to complete the mobilization.
After Joaquin walked out of the locker room, he took a deep breath.
"Hey, come on man, although I couldn't support you in the first half, I believe Danny and the others will help you as much as possible. We all believe in you."
Li Mo hugged Joaquin's shoulder from behind, smiled and gave the big brother a hug.
Speed did not arrange for him to start today. Considering that he had to fly back to China in the evening, Speed did not want him to be too tired. Maybe this game would only give him about 10 minutes of "warm-up time" in the second half.
Finding the feeling of the game and maintaining the desire to score goals, this is Li Mo's only task in this game.
Norwich is weak, and their performance this season has dropped a lot compared to last season. Even if Li Mo does not start, Sheffield United can basically win steadily.
Of course, just to be on the safe side, Speed still brought Li Mo with him. If he couldn't break the game in the first half, Li Mo still had to fight in the second half.
However, the probability of this situation is very small. Norwich conceded 21 goals in the first ten games, and the goal difference was minus [-].
With this kind of defensive ability, it is really unrealistic to expect them to suddenly burst into defense against the impact of Bell + Joaquin + Berbatov and Vardy.
Faced with Li Mo's encouragement, Joaquin didn't say much, and clapped hands with Li Mo vigorously, his eyes full of strength.
Li Mo also walked to Maguire's side, helped him straighten the captain's armband on his arm, patted his arm and said cheers.
As the team captain for the first time, Maguire's expression inevitably became a little more serious, but when he was patted by Li Mo, he touched his hair with a foolish smile.
After high-fiving with the rest of his teammates, Li Mo walked out of the player channel and walked to the bench first.
The players of Sheffield United also felt a little uncomfortable at the moment, including Maguire who was wearing the captain's armband.
Every time before the game, watching Li Mo standing at the front, they would quickly settle down in their hearts. Today, if Li Mo does not start, everyone will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.
However, as the time came, the referee also signaled the players of both sides to follow the referee team to play. If you are not used to it, you have to get used to it as soon as possible. The game does not wait for anyone.
"The players from both sides followed the referee team out of the player channel, and the game is about to start, but today Li Mo did not appear in the starting team. He is sitting on the bench at the moment and talking to his head coach Speed. Such a scene is hard to see in previous Sheffield United games."
"Speed is completely out of love for Li Mo. On the 14th, we have to play the world preliminaries against Jordan. Everyone knows what it means to win the world preliminaries. Speed is a gift." Li Mo has enough time to rest, after today's game, Li Mo will also get on the plane back home."
Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu were commenting in the studio, and the fans in Huaguo also watched the Sheffield United league match with excitement.
To be precise, it depends on Li Mo's state before returning home.
Li Mo failed to start, the fans are more or less regretful, but at the same time they are relieved.
Even if he played less than half a league game, Li Mo's physical fitness can also reduce a lot of consumption, and he will be in a better state when playing Jordan.
It's no wonder the fans are so valued and careful.
After more than ten years, Huaguo football has once again come to the door of the World Cup, and it is only a final step to step over, and the scene of national celebration will once again reappear!
But if you don't win the game four days later, you will have to wait until the away game against Oman in June next year.
Who can wait for this!
And when the time comes to play an away game, even if you win, the players on the field can't witness this moment with their own eyes during the domestic celebration, what a pity that would be.
So, don't wait, and don't regret, the fans are looking forward to being in the country in four days, so feel free and bold, and shout out that sentence: "We have qualified!"
Seeing Li Mo sitting on the bench chatting with De Bruyne relaxedly at this moment, the Huaguo fans are all in a good mood, saying that Speed is the most caring coach in the world.
After the start of the game, even if Li Mo was not present, Huaguo fans cheered for Sheffield United from the bottom of their hearts, hoping that Sheffield United can win Norwich early today.
Drinkwater decisively transitioned the ball to the right at the beginning of the game. To be precise, it transitioned to Joaquin's feet.
Berbatov approached to respond, and Vardy moved on the right side to help Joaquin pull away the defender. As soon as everyone made a gesture, Joaquin knew that these guys must have discussed it in private.
I didn't tell him in advance because I was afraid that he would refuse. Maybe Speed also knew about it, but before the game, there was no word about it. Today's game is going to let him be the protagonist.
Joaquin didn't know what to say, he was a bit dumbfounded, but he was also very moved.
It feels really good that his teammates are all doing their best to help him. Although Joaquin thinks it's a little inappropriate to do so, but now that it's all over, it's hypocritical to say anything.
"Just use the victory to express gratitude, thank you, my brothers"
Joaquin held the ball and started the first offensive test of the audience, and the Sheffield United home team fans at the Bramall Lane Stadium also gave the veteran the most enthusiastic cheers.
Although Joaquin has only played more than ten games for the team, the eyes of the fans are sharp.
He does not grab the ball, and is willing to assist Drinkwater to organize the team's operation. When necessary, he can press forward to get the ball and break through, and he is also active in defense.
Who doesn't love such a veteran!
Not to mention that Speed praised Joaquin's professional attitude many times after the game, and Li Mo also said many times that Joaquin was like the teacher and brother of the young players in the team, helping every player in the team as much as possible .
Joaquin is worth it, even if he only stays at Sheffield United for this season, the fans of Sheffield United will regard him as their own and give him full support and encouragement.
Today's Sheffield United also changed from the calm style of the past. They played against Norwich when they came up. With Joaquin as the starting point of the frontcourt attack, they set off wave after wave of offensive.
Li Mo and De Bruyne sat on the bench and cheered every wonderful performance of Joaquin.
In the position of the front midfielder, although Joaquin did not show how gorgeous dribbling skills, but he used decisive and timely transfer of the ball time and time again, making Sheffield United's frontcourt attack seem to be loaded. Engine-like, without the slightest sense of stagnation.
The atmosphere of the entire stadium reached its first climax in the No. 19 minute of the first half.
Joaquin stopped and swayed away Norwich's midfielder Johnson, and then sent a diagonal through ball directly to the right rib area in front of the penalty area!
Berbatov and Vardy succeeded in anti-offside almost at the same time, and in the face of this situation of two ghosts hitting the goal, Norwich goalkeeper Rudy killed his two central defenders.
In the end, Berbatov made a clever push and scored. Li Mo yelled and applauded De Bruyne on the bench.
Brother Xiaosa still had that elegant appearance, he even waved his fist lightly in celebration, and then hugged Vardy and Joaquin with a smile.
"Norwich City's defense has been pierced! Joaquin's pass is decisive and sharp. I feel that this veteran is more and more like a free man in the frontcourt. He is no longer like when he was young, playing one side at a time. Pied's transformation allowed Joaquin's career to continue, and if he can maintain his current state, it feels like Joaquin will have no problem playing in the Premier League for another two or three seasons."
Zhan Jun made no secret of his love and praise for Joaquin.
It can be gorgeous or simple. Joaquin's style change is very natural. The most commendable thing is that he uses a simple way of playing to run a team's frontcourt offense. Such a veteran is a treasure everywhere.
"Hey, Sheffield United doesn't seem to have set up the front midfielder much now, does it?"
Zhang Lu touched his chin and asked, Zhan Jun thought for a while and replied:
"Yes, this season Sheffield United has very few formations with an attacking midfielder. De Bruyne has played a few times before."
"Hey, it's a pity, I think Joaquin is also suitable to play as a front midfielder now. I watched him play for ten minutes today, and I always think of Belleron back then. The characteristics of the two organizations are very similar, and Joaquin's body It is better than Belleron, if the range of activities in the frontcourt is wider, it may bring more surprises to Sheffield United's offensive tactics."
Zhang Lu's evaluation is not unreasonable, but the current Joaquin certainly has not thought about transforming into a midfielder.
After all, the development of today's football is very different from before. The survival path of the classical attacking midfielder is getting narrower and narrower. The position of the waist is further developed.
Joaquin himself likes his current position in the team.
The starting point of the organization of the frontcourt attack does not need to go to the front line by himself and play with his brain. His career will be extended for many years, and more importantly, injuries will be reduced. This is what he is most satisfied with.
After celebrating with his teammates, Joaquin also actively ran back to his own half.
He had no chance before, he had to make himself a little more "Buddhist", but now he sees the opportunity to enter the national team again, which player is willing to miss such an honor?
Playing for the country is an honor in itself, and Joaquin certainly hopes to wear the jersey of the Spanish national team again.
He doesn't expect to win any international championships, and being able to represent Spain on the court again is enough for him.
Therefore, just sending out an assist today is not enough. He has to show his best form and let Bosque see that the Spanish players who shine in the Premier League are not only David Silva of Manchester City, but also Joaquin !
After the score on the field became 1-0, the balance of the game almost completely slid to Sheffield United's side.
Norwich had to press out and try to attack, which gave Sheffield United's offensive players more opportunities in the frontcourt.
To put it bluntly, Norwich's defense is like a sieve. Before facing Fulham and Liverpool, who were stretched, they lost more than five goals. Now they dare to expose their weaknesses to the blade of Sheffield United. , Sheffield United players will naturally not be polite.
In the 208th minute of the first half, Bale started at a high speed on the left side. He first passed Norwich's full-back, and then used his speed to eat Norwich's full-back.
Seeing this, Vardy hurried over and cooperated with Bell to hit the wall, helping Bell successfully break into the Norwich penalty area.
Facing the attacking Norwich goalkeeper Rudy, Bell chose to push through the crotch and calmly helped the team expand the score again.
This ball hit the Norwich players deeply, and Bell exploded another edge, and his state was booming. The commentator of Sky Sports kept feeling sorry.
After all, Wales, where Bell is located, has already been eliminated in the world preliminaries. If Bell plays on behalf of England, the strength of England's left side will greatly increase. It is not impossible to get a good result in the World Cup in 14.
It's a pity that Bell, like most Welsh players, is stubborn. Even if the Welsh ship sank many times in the world preliminaries and European preliminaries, they will only choose to sink into the water with the ship, and disdain the luxury cruise ship next to it. Looking at it, it is really a pity.
Bell didn't celebrate after scoring a goal, but hugged Joaquin and said something, and then several people ran back to their own half actively again, making the Norwich players tremble in their hearts.
And before the end of the first half, Sheffield United did find an opportunity again.
Drinkwater dribbled the ball in, and then distributed the ball to Matt Ridge on the left side of the road.
Matt Ridge did not continue to bottom, but directly kicked a pass from the left wing near the big penalty area. Vardy ambushed behind the Norwich penalty area and shot. Rudy blocked the shot at the first time Pounced out.
At this time, Joaquin rushed into the penalty area alertly, and swept the ball towards the goal before the Norwich defender made a clearance.
The ball seemed to be passed and shot, but in the end, Berbatov stretched his legs in the crowd to block it. The football refracted and flew into the far corner of the goal. Sheffield United rewritten the score to 3-0 before the end of the first half!
After completing two assists, Joaquin was finally excited, and the other Sheffield United players also gathered around him to celebrate.
Amidst the deafening cheers of the home fans, Speed also showed a satisfied smile.
This group of boys did not let him down. With a three-goal lead in the half, it was very convenient to make adjustments in the second half.
Li Mo doesn't need to hurry up, just follow the original plan for three to 10 minutes.
De Bruyne can also replace Vardy in the second half and play the midfielder position after playing. Let's see how he cooperates with Li Mo, who is a single striker.
As for Joaquin and Bell, they can play the whole game today.
The next round of the league will start seven days later, so there is plenty of rest time. Even if Joaquin is really called up by the Spanish national team after this game, it doesn't matter. The next round of the league will let De Bruyne start on the right.
Recently, this kid has made great progress. It’s no problem to play a kick in the league once in a while. It’s not a big problem for him to stick to the ball or occasionally delay his rhythm. He just slowly corrected it during the game.
After the intermission, the Sheffield United players obviously put more energy into controlling the field, and did not actively invest in the offense as they did in the first half.
In the No.604 minute of the second half, De Bruyne and Li Mo also finished warming up and stood on the sidelines. Such a scene aroused cheers from all Sheffield United fans.
In the applause of the audience, Li Mo hugged Berbatov and Vardy who were off the field, and then trotted into the field, and the Huaguo fans who were watching the game cheered up one after another.
"Xiao Li is on the ball, find out how he feels, it's best to score a goal."
Director Zhang said hehe, and Zhan Jun was very honest, saying that all Norwich players will retreat and Li Mo can warm up on the offensive end. Forcibly attacking may cause major fouls by the defensive players.
And the rhythm of the game has indeed become dull as Norwich defended.
Because the formation has been changed to [-], Li Mo is currently a lone striker for Sheffield United, and Norwich's defensive players are naturally very targeted at Li Mo.
Joaquin and Bell wanted to think of a way on the two flanks, but among the dense defensive crowd, it was difficult for them to forcibly open up a channel to connect with Li Mo.
When the game progressed to No. 805 minutes, the score on the court was still maintained at 3-0, and it seemed that this was the result of this game.
But just when the players on both sides were a little relaxed, Trippier who suddenly stepped in from the right caught Drinkwater's attention.
Brother Drinking Water didn't hesitate, he sent a chic long pass directly behind the Norwich defense line, and after Trippier stopped the ball while running at high speed, he aimed at Li Mo's area and sent the cross directly!
The quality of the pass was very good, but Li Mo was full of people in front of him and behind him. He couldn't help complaining in his heart that the opponent didn't give him any space to run up and take off.
However, although it is not easy to rush to the top and attack the goal, it is no problem to compete for the top under double-teaming.
Li Mo observed the situation around him briefly, then chose to ferry the ball with a header, and pushed the ball to the right area outside the penalty area.
De Bruyne was just standing outside the penalty area at the moment. As soon as Li Mo pushed the ball out, there were no Norwich defenders around him, so he stopped the ball easily.
Seeing the densely packed Norwich defenders surrounding Li Mo, De Bruyne stopped thinking about continuing to pass the ball to Li Mo, adjusted two steps to lead the ball, and directly chose to shoot!
Norwich goalkeeper Rudy's sight was blocked by his teammates and Li Mo. When the football shot by De Bruyne appeared in his sight, it was already very close to the goal.
In vain, he reached out and tried to intercept, but Rudy didn't touch anything in the end, and the football almost touched the post and flew into the goal!
Li Mo was happy, his header ferry this time was just a very routine choice, but in the end it was counted as an assist. This is a free assist bonus.
De Bruyne's rubbing shot was very beautiful, and he was very excited after scoring. He patted his chest and imitated Li Mo's listening and celebrating action near the baseline.
In the end, Sheffield United also won Norwich 4-0 at home.
Li Mo played junior for 10 minutes and contributed an assist. It can be seen that he is in good condition.
After the game, Li Mo finished his physiotherapy and rushed directly to Manchester's airport.
In fact, Director Gao asked him to rest for one night and fly back to China the next day, but Li Mo himself couldn't wait.
It turned out that the dinner appointment with Mendes could only be postponed, and now everything can only be postponed in front of the world preliminaries, and there is no need to discuss it.
Still changing planes in Frankfurt, after gathering with Hao Junmin and the others, Li Mo deliberately took a photo with several national team teammates and uploaded it to his bib account before boarding the plane.
"This is the battle of our mission, this battle must be won!"
Tonight's games are one after another, brothers forgive me, maybe there are only [-] words, just watch the ball and add some material~
By the way, will Lewandowski explode tonight?
(End of this chapter)
When the smoke of the Champions League cleared, the European leagues soon resumed their battles.
In the Premier League, for the powerful teams that are about to enter the winter devil's schedule, the period from November to mid-December is the best time to grab points.
Every year at the beginning of January, the Premier League teams will join the competition for the FA Cup. At that time, if they give up the two major domestic cup competitions early, there will be no European teams that can live a relatively healthy life.

After all, the development of today's football is very different from before. The survival path of the classical attacking midfielder is getting narrower and narrower. The position of the waist is further developed.
Joaquin himself likes his current position in the team.
The starting point of the organization of the frontcourt attack does not need to go to the front line by himself and play with his brain. His career will be extended for many years, and more importantly, injuries will be reduced. This is what he is most satisfied with.
After celebrating with his teammates, Joaquin also actively ran back to his own half.
He had no chance before, he had to make himself a little more "Buddhist", but now he sees the opportunity to enter the national team again, which player is willing to miss such an honor?
Playing for the country is an honor in itself, and Joaquin certainly hopes to wear the jersey of the Spanish national team again.
He doesn't expect to win any international championships, and being able to represent Spain on the court again is enough for him.
Therefore, just sending out an assist today is not enough. He has to show his best form and let Bosque see that the Spanish players who shine in the Premier League are not only David Silva of Manchester City, but also Joaquin !
After the score on the field became 1-0, the balance of the game almost completely slid to Sheffield United's side.
Norwich had to press out and try to attack, which gave Sheffield United's offensive players more opportunities in the frontcourt.
To put it bluntly, Norwich's defense is like a sieve. Before facing Fulham and Liverpool, who were stretched, they lost more than five goals. Now they dare to expose their weaknesses to the blade of Sheffield United. , Sheffield United players will naturally not be polite.
In the 208th minute of the first half, Bale started at a high speed on the left side. He first passed Norwich's full-back, and then used his speed to eat Norwich's full-back.
Seeing this, Vardy hurried over and cooperated with Bell to hit the wall, helping Bell successfully break into the Norwich penalty area.
Facing the attacking Norwich goalkeeper Rudy, Bell chose to push through the crotch and calmly helped the team expand the score again.
This ball hit the Norwich players deeply, and Bell exploded another edge, and his state was booming. The commentator of Sky Sports kept feeling sorry.
After all, Wales, where Bell is located, has already been eliminated in the world preliminaries. If Bell plays on behalf of England, the strength of England's left side will greatly increase. It is not impossible to get a good result in the World Cup in 14.
It's a pity that Bell, like most Welsh players, is stubborn. Even if the Welsh ship sank many times in the world preliminaries and European preliminaries, they will only choose to sink into the water with the ship, and disdain the luxury cruise ship next to it. Looking at it, it is really a pity.
Bell didn't celebrate after scoring a goal, but hugged Joaquin and said something, and then several people ran back to their own half actively again, making the Norwich players tremble in their hearts.
And before the end of the first half, Sheffield United did find an opportunity again.
Drinkwater dribbled the ball in, and then distributed the ball to Matt Ridge on the left side of the road.
Matt Ridge did not continue to bottom, but directly kicked a pass from the left wing near the big penalty area. Vardy ambushed behind the Norwich penalty area and shot. Rudy blocked the shot at the first time Pounced out.
At this time, Joaquin rushed into the penalty area alertly, and swept the ball towards the goal before the Norwich defender made a clearance.
The ball seemed to be passed and shot, but in the end, Berbatov stretched his legs in the crowd to block it. The football refracted and flew into the far corner of the goal. Sheffield United rewritten the score to 3-0 before the end of the first half!
After completing two assists, Joaquin was finally excited, and the other Sheffield United players also gathered around him to celebrate.
Amidst the deafening cheers of the home fans, Speed also showed a satisfied smile.
This group of boys did not let him down. With a three-goal lead in the half, it was very convenient to make adjustments in the second half.
Li Mo doesn't need to hurry up, just follow the original plan for three to 10 minutes.
De Bruyne can also replace Vardy in the second half and play the midfielder position after playing. Let's see how he cooperates with Li Mo, who is a single striker.
As for Joaquin and Bell, they can play the whole game today.
The next round of the league will start seven days later, so there is plenty of rest time. Even if Joaquin is really called up by the Spanish national team after this game, it doesn't matter. The next round of the league will let De Bruyne start on the right.
Recently, this kid has made great progress. It’s no problem to play a kick in the league once in a while. It’s not a big problem for him to stick to the ball or occasionally delay his rhythm. He just slowly corrected it during the game.
After the intermission, the Sheffield United players obviously put more energy into controlling the field, and did not actively invest in the offense as they did in the first half.
In the No.604 minute of the second half, De Bruyne and Li Mo also finished warming up and stood on the sidelines. Such a scene aroused cheers from all Sheffield United fans.
In the applause of the audience, Li Mo hugged Berbatov and Vardy who were off the field, and then trotted into the field, and the Huaguo fans who were watching the game cheered up one after another.
"Xiao Li is on the ball, find out how he feels, it's best to score a goal."
Director Zhang said hehe, and Zhan Jun was very honest, saying that all Norwich players will retreat and Li Mo can warm up on the offensive end. Forcibly attacking may cause major fouls by the defensive players.
And the rhythm of the game has indeed become dull as Norwich defended.
Because the formation has been changed to [-], Li Mo is currently a lone striker for Sheffield United, and Norwich's defensive players are naturally very targeted at Li Mo.
Joaquin and Bell wanted to think of a way on the two flanks, but among the dense defensive crowd, it was difficult for them to forcibly open up a channel to connect with Li Mo.
When the game progressed to No. 805 minutes, the score on the court was still maintained at 3-0, and it seemed that this was the result of this game.
But just when the players on both sides were a little relaxed, Trippier who suddenly stepped in from the right caught Drinkwater's attention.
Brother Drinking Water didn't hesitate, he sent a chic long pass directly behind the Norwich defense line, and after Trippier stopped the ball while running at high speed, he aimed at Li Mo's area and sent the cross directly!
The quality of the pass was very good, but Li Mo was full of people in front of him and behind him. He couldn't help complaining in his heart that the opponent didn't give him any space to run up and take off.
However, although it is not easy to rush to the top and attack the goal, it is no problem to compete for the top under double-teaming.
Li Mo observed the situation around him briefly, then chose to ferry the ball with a header, and pushed the ball to the right area outside the penalty area.
De Bruyne was just standing outside the penalty area at the moment. As soon as Li Mo pushed the ball out, there were no Norwich defenders around him, so he stopped the ball easily.
Seeing the densely packed Norwich defenders surrounding Li Mo, De Bruyne stopped thinking about continuing to pass the ball to Li Mo, adjusted two steps to lead the ball, and directly chose to shoot!
Norwich goalkeeper Rudy's sight was blocked by his teammates and Li Mo. When the football shot by De Bruyne appeared in his sight, it was already very close to the goal.
In vain, he reached out and tried to intercept, but Rudy didn't touch anything in the end, and the football almost touched the post and flew into the goal!
Li Mo was happy, his header ferry this time was just a very routine choice, but in the end it was counted as an assist. This is a free assist bonus.
De Bruyne's rubbing shot was very beautiful, and he was very excited after scoring. He patted his chest and imitated Li Mo's listening and celebrating action near the baseline.
In the end, Sheffield United also won Norwich 4-0 at home.
Li Mo played junior for 10 minutes and contributed an assist. It can be seen that he is in good condition.
After the game, Li Mo finished his physiotherapy and rushed directly to Manchester's airport.
In fact, Director Gao asked him to rest for one night and fly back to China the next day, but Li Mo himself couldn't wait.
It turned out that the dinner appointment with Mendes could only be postponed, and now everything can only be postponed in front of the world preliminaries, and there is no need to discuss it.
Still changing planes in Frankfurt, after gathering with Hao Junmin and the others, Li Mo deliberately took a photo with several national team teammates and uploaded it to his bib account before boarding the plane.
"This is the battle of our mission, this battle must be won!"
Tonight's games are one after another, brothers forgive me, maybe there are only [-] words, just watch the ball and add some material~
By the way, will Lewandowski explode tonight?
