Chapter 0006 Hug (Ask for Collection)
Marcus Rashford, who scored the goal, couldn't be more excited.
It was not only the first goal of his career in an official game, but also a crucial goal in an important game such as the Europa League knockout round, which helped Manchester United tie the score.
Undoubtedly, it would be difficult to find a more perfect debut goal!
Although he knew that he would score, and he would score a lot of goals, it was all Rashford in another time and space in his memory, but now he is indeed the first goal.
So, Rashford was still so excited that he didn't even know how to celebrate. He just ran wildly, unconsciously waving his arms and yelling loudly, like crazy.
Rashford's appearance not only frightened the opponent players, but even the Manchester United players were a little stunned.
However, it quickly occurred to them that this was the little brother's first goal in an official match, and it couldn't be more crazy.
So, they followed Rashford, waving their arms in celebration.
It was an equally important goal for them, as it put United and Midtjylland back on the same starting line.
What's more, this is Old Trafford, the home of Manchester United, and they have an innate advantage.
What's more, they all know very well that Manchester United's strength is already stronger than the other party.
Now, everyone is scoring the same goals, home and away goals are the same, and there is about half an hour left in regular time plus stoppage time, which is enough for them to settle their opponents in regulation time and advance to the next round.
The Manchester United substitutes and coaches on the bench were also rejoicing, knowing that in this round of knockout rounds, Manchester United had taken the lead and the chances of promotion could be said to be stable.
………………
The excitement on coach Louis van Gaal's face was palpable, although he thought that Manchester United would equalize and even take the lead, but he did not expect that the person who achieved this goal was a choice he made in desperation.
Although before the game, he included the kid in the 18-man squad, but that was because the injury list of Manchester United's first team was too long, and there was no other choice, so he had to include the striker of Manchester United's youth team, which was considered to make up the 18-man squad.
If nothing else, he had no intention of letting the kid appear.
However, the unexpected did happen, and during the pre-match warm-up, Anthony Martial, the team's only striker, turned out to be injured. As a result, he had to send the only kid who could play in the center forward position to start the game.
At that moment, Van Gaal's heart was filled with despair, because he couldn't imagine what role such a child could play in the Europa League 16 knockout round.
Louis van Gaal was ready to be eliminated by Manchester United after the game and sacked himself.
The first-half game confirmed his opinion, and the kid barely played much of a role on the pitch except for a moment when he forced the opposition centre-back to set himself up for an own goal. If it weren't for the lack of other candidates in the squad, Van Gaal would have planned to replace him in midfield.
However, at this moment, Van Gaal is glad that he did not make that decision, otherwise, God knows if there was such a goal.
Looking at the morale of the players who had been boosted by the equaliser, and looking at the cheering fans in the stands, Van Gaal saw hope of qualifying for the game.
And at this moment, Van Gaal unexpectedly found that the little guy who scored the equalizer actually ran towards him with a string of Manchester United players.
Could it be that the little guy is going to come over and celebrate with him? Thank you for giving him a chance to play?
………………
On the pitch, Rashford, who unconsciously ran to the sidelines, gradually came back to his senses at this moment, and after a crazy run, his mood has gradually calmed down.
At this time, he also found that he had come to the front of the bench, and the old face of coach Van Gaal was not far in front of him.
"Nima ......" Rashford is a little dumbfounded, is this the situation of Shenma?
He remembered that in another plane, that wasn't the case.
For Van Gaal, Rashford can't say that he has much affection, because this old man led Manchester United and didn't play a good performance, but made the previous Manchester United, which was good at attacking, become a team that only knows how to pass back to the foot, and was ridiculed as Manchester Returning United, and even Marcus in his previous life gave him a nickname called "Slow Sticky", which means that the team's game scene is slow and slimy.
Although this old man was also the one who discovered Rashford, it was a past life, and now everything is about to begin.
And he, as the other soul of the fans, also knows that the old man's days at Manchester United are numbered, and he will leave at the end of the season, even if he leads the team to the twelfth FA Cup.
However, seeing the old man's expectant gaze, Rashford hesitated, but did not stop, ran to the old man, and then gave him a hug.
At that moment, the Dream Theater was noticeably quiet.
After nearly two years of suffering, fans have almost despaired of Van Gaal.
In particular, a week ago, after an upset defeat in Denmark, Manchester United broke out on the road, not only chanting "Oh, What a Night" at the end of the game to satirize the team's loss, but also venting their frustration with the team and manager Louis van Gaal after the game. Many fans have voiced their voices in various ways, expressing the hope that Van Gaal will get out of the way immediately.
But now, the goal-scorer who helped the team equalize, the team's hopeful star, and the home-trained baby, actually hugged the incompetent old Dutch man after scoring a goal, which ......
But the next moment, Old Trafford erupted in even more enthusiastic applause, resounding throughout the audience.
The fans think very simply, as long as they can score goals, as long as they can give the team hope of winning, there is no need to worry so much.
What's more, although the old Dutch man has no ability, he is still sitting in the position of Manchester United coach at the moment, so he should be respected.
Even if there is a conflict within the team, it is all their own business, and in front of outsiders, they must show a united attitude.
What's more, for the kid who scored the goal, Van Gaal was indeed his Bole and gave him the opportunity to start. A child who knows how to be grateful is a good child. Now that he can do that to Louis van Gaal, it shows that he has a deeper affection for the team that developed him.
Vaguely, fans saw a new Red Devils legend that was growing.
