Chapter 44: The Beginning

Alex Ferguson is still very satisfied with Andy's friend's grandson, who is tall and strong, trains hard, is usually polite, and more importantly, has not spent a penny to sign a contract. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Alex Ferguson, who had always thought that Andy was a good baby, had talked to his wife about this young man at home, although Andy did not cooperate with the club's press officer on the training ground that time, but he was also for training, so Alex Ferguson has always had a good impression of him.

But with the media breaking news about Andy's private life again and again, Alex Ferguson was a little worried, David Beckham's Manchester United had made his head big, so he was afraid that Andy would be next, he was afraid that Andy would be affected by these news, so he wanted to talk to Andy several times, but he chose to shut up when he saw him practicing there after every training.

Well, the hard work and fighting spirit in this kid is the most important thing, Alex Ferguson said to himself a few times before he wanted to open his mouth, and he also saw pictures of Andy winning the championship covered in bandages in those reports.

On 15 August 1998, the Charity Shield began between Arsenal, who won the league title and the FA Cup domestic double, and Manchester United, who won the league title and the FA Cup domestic double.

Andy was startled by the indignant expressions of his teammates and the revenge shouted in his mouth as soon as he got into the car, and only after the explanation of his good friend Phil Neville did he understand that Manchester United was double-killed by Arsenal in the league last season, and what is even more infuriating is that after Manchester United lost 0-1 in the life-and-death battle related to the championship at Old Trafford, Manchester United's home stadium, Arsenal won the title two rounds in advance and then lost the next two games, which is obviously rubbing salt in Manchester United's wounds, so everyone wants to vent their anger in this game.

When he was young, Andy also dreamed of playing at Wembley and scoring goals, but when he really stood on the grass of this stadium and warmed up under the eyes of 90,000 people, he was quite calm, because he knew that although he was in the squad, he might not have a chance to play as a substitute in this game.

The game started quickly, with Alex Ferguson fielding his full squad in the field, with Andy Cole and veteran Sheringham up front, Roy Keane leading Ryan Giggs, David Beckham, Paul Scholes in midfield, defenders Erwin, Stamm, Parister, Gary Neville, and goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.

Arsenal were still quite unfavourable for the game, with Overmars and Bergkamp both unavailable due to injury, with Arsene Wenger fielding new signings Frédéric Ljungberg and Pallaur on the wings, and Nicolas Anelka and Kanu up front.

Andy sat in a chair with a bunch of substitutes and watched the game and thought about it.

When he knew that Andy was in the squad, the old Edward excitedly said that he wanted to go to the scene to watch, but Andy dissuaded him, did he let an old man go to London by car knowing that he couldn't play?

However, Kelly Brooke, who works in London, had already booked her tickets after learning the news, and Andy didn't know where her confidence came from, thinking of Kelly's voice on the phone that she believed she could play.

Usually, including family, girlfriend and teammates, Andy's mentality is very peaceful, and the media reports are not affected, only he knows that there is a fire burning in his heart, and he hopes to conquer everyone with his current performance on the football field, rather than relying on his handsome appearance and previous achievements to become famous.

The first half was slow as United gained the upper hand as David Beckham hit the crossbar with a free-kick from 30 yards out before Andy Cole headed a header into the back of the net, only to be replayed in slow motion and the goal had already crossed the goal line. …,

At the moment of the goal, Andy and his teammates on the bench cheered with joy.

But then things changed on the pitch when Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira stepped forward to create a penalty that Nigerian striker Kanu converted.

The first half ended with a goal-sharing affair as both teams returned to their dressing rooms to rest, and Andy saw for the first time what his team-mates called Alex Ferguson's hairdryer.

At the beginning of the second half, the Manchester United crowd who had been served by the hair dryer was very powerful for about 10 minutes, but then Kanu passed to Parl, and Parl, who was successful in the anti-offside position, scored another goal directly.

Andy was depressed as he watched his teammates run in vain, and he wanted to rush to Coach Alex Ferguson now and ask him to send him on the pitch.

He was hungry to play, he was hungry to play, he was hungry to score goals, but reason didn't do that, he just sat and waited!

Alex Ferguson looked angrily at the players on the pitch, the opposing backline was old but experienced, and they were all typical tall British defenders, Andy Cole and veteran Sheringham could only attack again and again in vain and then be destroyed.

Alex Ferguson looked at the bench and wanted to be replaced by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but he couldn't help but shake his head at his small size and baby face.

"I knew I had bought York at the time." Ferguson thought with a little regret, but his eyes saw Andy sitting on the bench who was a lap older than Ole Gunnar Solskjaer next to him.

"Andy, go warm up!" Alex Ferguson shouted that there was only one option in the front line at this time, and he even hoped that the kid in front of him would surprise him.

Andy had been anxious about the situation on the field, so he didn't hear Ferguson at all, and he didn't come to his senses until his good friend Phil Neville, who was sitting next to him, nudged him and told him to warm up in an envious tone.

Andy excitedly stood up and walked to the sidelines, moving his joints and muscles, and at this moment he couldn't believe that he could play.

As the warm-up progressed, Andy's blood began to boil, it had been a long time since he had a game, he hadn't felt like this for a long time, Andy only felt that his whole body was trembling now, and his heartbeat was slowly accelerating, he was already and thirsty!

"Who are the players who are warming up for Manchester United right now, oh my God, Andy at 17 years and 72 days old, is Ferguson trying to let his little Andy use the strong body he has developed in American football to knock down Arsenal's five poor old defenders?" Sky TV's Martintyler laughed and teased Arsenal's ageing but experienced defence.

Moments later, there was a dead ball on the pitch and Arsenal defenders fouled Andy Cole, United were awarded a throw-in and the fourth official held up a sign for a substitution.

Andy Cole trotted to the sideline and hugged Andy, whispering in his ear, "Knock them down, little Andy!" "You must know that he once joked with Andy and asked Andy to hit him with rugby, but he was knocked to the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, and then he went to find some video of the rugby game to see that Andy had shown mercy, so now he was replaced without the slightest piece of matter, just sympathized with the opposing defender.

Andy kissed the cross necklace on his chest and stepped into the court, at this time, the live TV directly gave him a close-up, only the handsome face had no other expression, only perseverance.

After Andy came on, Ryan Giggs quickly returned to the throw-in, and the Arsenal defender came to his side immediately after Scholes received the pass to steal the ball at his feet. …,

Paul Scholes watched the situation down the pitch and a diversion handed the ball to David Beckham.

David Beckham took the ball and observed the form on the field, the opposing defenders had already run over to block his passing route, they were not afraid of David Beckham's breakthrough, you must know that David Beckham's breakthrough is his weakness, the only thing he is afraid of is his accurate passing.

David Beckham had no choice but to split the ball backwards after being caught in the eye and after a couple of passes, the ball found at the feet of Roy Keane.

Andy hadn't received a single pass in the first few minutes of coming on and realised he might be too far forward and stepped back a bit.

Roy Keane spotted Andy after getting rid of an opposing defender, and he didn't have a defender around him, so he immediately threw a long pass.

Andy didn't know whether to thank the Arsenal players at this time, because of their contempt, there was no one around him to guard him at all, he calmly received the ball and turned around.

He started to start along the mid lane, which was his favorite place to stay, and he ran forward like that.

The soccer ball followed the turf and moved quickly with his legs, and Andy's face appeared in front of a big black man, and Andy remembered that it seemed to be the captain of the opposing team, Vieira.

Andy smiled, he could deal with the sturdy and tall black man in front of him, so he controlled the ball and rushed straight over.

The bodies of the two sides collided violently together, with or without intention, Vieira didn't expect that his black iron body would be directly knocked away, and he could only continue to chase Andy after stabilizing his body.

Andy continued to move forward with the ball all the way, and with a deft buckle in the middle, a quick stop changed to shake off the defense of one of the opposing players, and then flashed his body and ran into the penalty area.

"It's late!"

Andy muttered as he watched the last defender who was at least twice his age pounce on him.

I saw him knock the ball forward, leaned back slightly with his left foot as a support, raised his right foot high, and the muscles on his strong thigh tightened, and then his right foot, which infused his whole body strength, slammed into the ball on the ground.

Shot!!!!!!

The soccer ball flew towards the opponent's goal like an arrow shot from a giant crossbow in an ancient war.

The Arsenal goalkeeper flew up and pounced on the football! But he could only pounce on the air currents that were still flowing in the air, and behind him, the net had been lifted fiercely!

gooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Ball...... The ball is in---!! ”

Martin Taylor shouted excitedly twice, then shouted in front of the microphone in a higher pitched voice.

"Andy, 17 years and 72 years old, scored in his first game, he used his strong body and powerful shot to score against Arsenal in less than 10 minutes on the pitch, I like the way he scores, he's a tough guy and his goals are full of power!!!

The Manchester United fans at Wembley Stadium went crazy in an instant, and a huge cheer resounded throughout the space.

Andy didn't expect his first game to come so quickly!

When he watched his football ripple in the net, he couldn't control himself anymore, and words came out of his mouth that he didn't even know what they meant.

He yelled and rushed to the sidelines of the crowd, knowing that Kelly Brooke was sitting in the first row watching his game, and he even saw her standing up and cheering as he ran.

Andy ran so fast, taking off his jersey and waving it in his hand as he ran, his toned body appeared in the eyes of the audience and everyone watching the game.

Moments later, Andy and Kelly Brooke, who wore the number 44 jersey, were kissing across the billboard, their tongues tightly entangled. …,

When the two parted lips, Andy put on his jersey, and his teammates who came after him watched with envy as the fiery Kelly Brooke hugged Andy.

The big screen in the stadium repeatedly played the image of Andy and Kelly Brooke kissing, and the United fans applauded.

"Look at this young man, I have begun to envy him, it is said that he has more than one girlfriend, but I want to say that I am almost in love with such a good young man." Martin Taylor teased in the middle of the speech.

Andy soon received his first yellow card for undressing, but he didn't care and shook hands with the referee with a smile.

Alex Ferguson didn't expect Andy to surprise him so quickly, so when he hugged the assistant coach next to him after Andy scored, the scene with Andy and Kelly Brooke immediately made him unhappy.

Well, this old man is too lenient about the love of his players...

The game resumed after a short hiatus, and Arsenal began to focus on defending Andy, but did it work。。。。。

PS: First of all, I apologize to everyone, there is 1 chapter in the previous chapter I made a mistake in the 97-98 season Manchester United is the runner-up and not the champion, so please forgive me! In addition, Wembley Stadium has a runway, not a professional stadium, so it is impossible for Andy to run outside and kiss Kelly Brooke, of course, this is just to set off the atmosphere, so don't mind this, haha!

Andy's goal started, and that Monday was a new beginning, did your recommendations and favorites begin, brothers and sisters, I will surprise and passion you when you get it!!!!
