　　 Ferguson reached the peak of his career while playing for Dunfermline, where he won the Scottish FA Cup and the league runner-up, and was also elected to the Scottish League Golden Boot.

　　 Although this game was only a home match against a newly promoted horse, the Dundee United fans were very enthusiastic. When the team entered the stadium, the cheers of the stadium were like overturning the stadium.

Although Dundee United are very happy that the team is advancing to the European Championship, and even want to use this game as a celebration, Dunfermline is very uncooperative. As a promoted horse that has set the goal of relegation early, What they have to do is to face every opponent and need to strive for every point.

In the opening half an hour, Dundee United had been playing tepidly, and did not show too strong offensive desire. Dunfermline felt that he had seen the situation of the game clearly, so he began to rebel against the offense, and it was really in the 45th place. Minutes, their midfielder Burns scored the goal and took the lead.

During the intermission, Peter Houston was very dissatisfied with the team’s performance in the first half: "Everyone needs to hurry up. We have just qualified for the Europa League. If we immediately lose to a promoted horse at home, what will happen? kind?"

　　 Everyone did not speak, and Vardy became inflamed at this time: "It's embarrassing."

However, Li Chenglong agreed with Houston that losing to a newly promoted team at home would really embarrass the team.

　　 So the second half began, Dundee United began to make efforts to break the embarrassing situation.

　　 In the 77th minute, after Li Chenglong and Yueqiu made a two-to-one match in the middle, they kept the ball directly with the inside of the foot and pushed the ball through the crotch of the opposing defender Jason Thomson and entered the penalty area.

　　 Conway on the left slapped his horse and rushed to the corner and immediately pushed the ball into the close corner, making the opponent's goalkeeper unable to save.

　　 "Lee used a clever pass through the crotch to assist Conway to score, and Dundee United finally equalized the score."

　　 "Except for the first round of the league, Lee has scored in the last four league games, either with goals or assists."

　　 The commentator is still showing his merits to Li Chenglong, and the situation on the court has changed again.

　　 In the 82nd minute, just 5 minutes after the goal, Li Chenglong dribbled the ball past defender Austin McCann on the right side of the front court, then took the ball horizontally and immediately kicked the goal.

　　 The ball flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal. Dunfermline goalkeeper Garacher became a wooden man again, standing in front of the goal blankly and doing nothing.

　　 "Goooooooal~~~~"

　　 "Bruce Lee ~~~~ A powerful long shot scored~~~ Dundee United overtook the score!!"

　　 "Every shot of Li appears to be very powerful. This is the characteristic of his shooting."

"If Dunfermline wants to be relegated, I think goalkeeper Garacher may be a big obstacle for them. Dundee United scored twice in five minutes. He stood at the goalkeeper twice and had no response. This is definitely not what a qualified keeper should do."

　　 Lee Chenglong's goal also became a lore goal. In the next 10 minutes, Dundee United began to recycle appropriately and prepare to reap the fruits of victory, and Dunfermline did not create any good opportunities.

　　 Relying on Li Chenglong's pass and shot, Dundee United defeated newly promoted Dunfermline 2:1 at home, avoiding a two-game losing streak in the league.
