March 18, the weekend originally reserved for the FA Cup quarter-finals, was also used for the League Cup final.

At 4 pm British time, Dundee United and the Celtics appeared together at Hampden Park.

When the Dundee United team appeared, the cheers in the stands were much higher than those of the Celtics, which was different from the past.

Standing in the center of the court, Jackie Lee saw a Tifo in the stands, which was a large jigsaw puzzle made for him by fans. The picture showed him wearing the No. 7 jersey and looking back, with an aura of looking down on the world.

What's more, there is a banner under Tifo, which reads: Bruce, you bring me more happiness than my wife.

The puzzles are good ones, and the banners are creative, but that's the line that seems a little weird.

"In the middle of the week, Dundee United completed a shocking reversal in an away game in Germany. They are now the most popular team in Scotland and the most popular team." The commentator's opening remarks came.

"It is said that because of that big reversal, the ticket sales for the League Cup final, which was originally ordinary, suddenly became hard to find."

"A lot of fans want to come and support Dundee United, cheer them on."

"There are fans in the stands playing Tifo for their hero Bruce Lee, I don't know if he likes it or not."

"Lee is without a doubt the most popular man on the field at the moment and the most fans in the stands wearing the number 7 jersey."

"Going back to the game itself, it's also a key game for Dundee United."

"In the previous two seasons, Dundee United have won the FA Cup. If they win the League Cup again in this game, they will have won the championship for three consecutive seasons. This is the first time in the history of Dundee United. the first time."

"In the 1980s, Dundee United had won the title twice in a row, but they've never won the title three in a row. This season will be their chance to break that record."

Amidst the narrator's discussion, the game officially began.

This is a championship battle that will determine the outcome, and both sides of the game are at their best.

However, at the left-back position of Dundee United, Andrew Robertson started. Through his outstanding performance in the last game, he successfully won the trust of Peter Houston.

After the start of the game, both sides played more conservatively.

Dundee United played an exaggerated game in Germany, but player fatigue was inevitable.

As for the Celtics, they seemed to be a little bit afraid of Dundee United's strength, and they didn't start a wide-ranging attack as soon as they came up. Instead, they tightened the fence first and slowly ground the battle.

Of course, this may also be because they want to seek stability.

Since ancient times, there has been no name in the finals, and the reason is that it is very easy for both sides to seek stability.

Once you seek stability, it will be difficult to play a beautiful final.

Under such a slow rhythm, the commentator could only catch the most concerned Li Chenglong, and kept mentioning his name.

"Li~~~ passed Wanyama!"

"It's a pity that I couldn't pass Laidley who was defending."

"Lee's pass~~~Valdy is following up!!"

"It's still a bit close, and the pass is a little lighter."

...

At such a slow pace, the game is not very good, but the time passes quickly.

The first half was over quickly.

Peter Houston didn't make too many adjustments during the halftime break. In the current situation, the two sides are just comparing patience.

The strongest lineup is already on the field, and the team is not in a disadvantageous situation, so there is no need to make substitutions and adjust first.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Celtics seemed to have the same idea and did not make any tactical changes.

But a lot of times, goals just happen by accident.

In the 55th minute, when the second half of the game continued calmly, Li Chenglong made a pass with Yue Yue in the midfield, and then dribbled the ball forward from the middle.

On the Celtic side, the Greek Samaras and the Korean Ji Chengyong wanted to close the door, but Lee Sung-yong's dribbling speed was very fast, and he rushed in first and squeezed through the gap between them.

"Li~~~ I passed two people at once!!"

"Kick~~~ hit the door?!" The commentator's tone suddenly rose.

Li Chenglong, who passed the two, saw that the front of the opponent's penalty area was a little empty, so he kicked directly.

In the Dundee United team, Li Chenglong has the absolute right to fire.

If he thinks he can shoot, he can shoot without anyone's consent.

The ball whized past Wanyama, and Celtic defender Rogni jumped up in the penalty area, trying to block the long-range shot with his back.

And he did, the ball hit him in the back and diverted a long shot that was going to the left of the goal to the right.

Although the speed of the ball was slowed down a lot, it still rushed toward the goal resolutely, hit the right post, and then bounced into the goal.

At this time, another defender, Mulgrew, who rushed over desperately, finally arrived, but he could only kick the goal post angrily, blaming it for not blocking the ball out of the goal.

"Goooooooooal~~~~~~"

"Bruce Lee~~~~Scored the goal with a long shot!!"

"This is an obvious long-range goal caused by a refraction. The ball hit the back of the Norwegian Rogni, deflected and flew into the goal."

"Both sides played relatively conservatively in this final, but Dundee United still relied on Bruce Lee's personal ability and a certain amount of luck to score first."

The moment Jackie Lee scored, the entire Hampton Park stadium suddenly boiled up.

He had just led the team to complete a big comeback in the Europa League, and it was at the time when he was most famous. This goal made the stands full of cheers.

"Bruce~~~ so fucking beautiful!"

"That's right~~~~ That's it~~~~ Fuck those trash to death!"

Dundee United is currently triumphant in the Europa League, while Rangers and Celtic were eliminated early, which made many fans who were unhappy with the rule of old brands find a place to vent.

Lee's goal finally made the Celtics less conservative, but only slightly.

The Celtics started to counterattack to a certain extent, but they probably felt that there was enough game time.

In the first 20 minutes, the Celtics' counterattack was not fierce.

But after 75 minutes, seeing that there was still no chance to score, the Celtics started a fierce counterattack, and forward players were replaced one after another.

Although Dundee United was passive, everyone experienced the same situation in Germany a few days ago. At that time, Schalke 04's counterattack was much more threatening. Everyone resisted it. Everyone is more confident this time. .

In the 86th minute, relying on the gap after the opponent's pressure, Vardy sent a beautiful counterattack long pass, and Li Chenglong ran back to catch the ball and got a single chance.

However, when Li Chenglong faced the goalkeeper at the end, his legs were a little weak, and he failed to fully exert his strength in the last hit, and was resolved by the opponent's goalkeeper.

Dundee United missed a chance to seal the victory, but this did not affect the final result of the game.

In the rest of the time, the Celtics still failed to find a chance to score, and the score of 1:0 was kept to the end.

"The whole game is over, and we congratulate Dundee United. They relied on Bruce Lee's long-range shot to score in the League Cup final, defeated the Celtics 1-0, and won the final championship." The commentator shouted loudly stand up.

"This is the first time in Dundee United's history that they have won the title for three consecutive seasons. This is a moment for them to cheer."

"Although Bruce Lee wasted some opportunities, he seized the most critical one."

"A lot of times, players only need to take one chance and you can be a hero for the team, and Lee is such a hero."
