Chapter 65: Fire

The day after such a brilliant and tumultuous battle, the major media in Britain and Spain also showed their abilities to cover the game from various angles. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Spanish media emphasized their skills and attacking power, in their opinion, the focus of the battle between Manchester United and Barcelona, like the final score, is an absolutely evenly matched game, although Manchester United once pressed the Barcelona team, but Barcelona used their skills to control the midfield from the second half, turning the game around, so they claim that once Barcelona return to the home stadium will beat Manchester United as they did four years ago and finally win.

The British media brought Andy and David Beckham out and chanted that Barcelona had only one Rivaldo and a Brazilian, and that we had two geniuses. It is believed that in the end of this group, Manchester United will definitely qualify for the quarter-finals, and even go further.

The sports edition of The Sun even hung a comparison of photos of Beckham and Andy, two handsome guys, and Rivaldo, well, this does attract a lot of female readers for them, as long as they have an eye, they will definitely lock their eyes on the handsome faces and toned bodies of Andy and Beckham, especially the photos of Andy taking off his jersey to celebrate.

The words of Martin Taylor, a well-known commentator on BBC Radio, added a raging fire to the Andy craze that has been on fire in recent consecutive goals.

Carrington Training Ground, Manchester.

Andy finished today's training session and was stopped by a club staff member as he was about to go home after changing clothes in the dressing room, and the night he had with Kate Beckinsale at Beckham's house the other day was like a dream, and when he woke up, everything was back on track.

"Jon, what's the matter?" Andy stopped.

"Andy, maybe you should come with me." The staff motioned for Andy to go with him.

"Oh my God, are you sure these gifts and letters are for me?" When Andy arrives at the club's center for sending and receiving fan letters and gifts, even with the best of his imagination, he could not have imagined that there is a room full of everything in front of him.

"Trust your eyes, these are gifts and letters from your fans across Europe and the UK, we've got you a truck and we'll be able to deliver it to your home later," the club staff said thoughtfully, smiling.

"Okay, thanks." Andy couldn't believe that he had become so popular in a Champions League group stage until he got in the car, which was even more shocking than hearing that Kate Beckinsale had a baby when he was in passion.

"Andy, tomorrow is the game against Arsenal, keep up the good work and win for us." The voice of the club staff came from behind.

In Edward Sr.'s estate, Andy's grandfather and his agent, Paul Smith, looked at the letters and gifts that filled a hall, and even with their age and experience, their jaws were dislocated.

"You see, maybe we should sort these things out, after all, that's what the fans want." Andy also has a bit of a headache, if he doesn't deal with it, he will let down the fans who like him, and if he handles it alone, he knows whether he will sleep at night or not.

Old Edward mobilized the servants of the family to tidy up with great interest, and the old man was very proud of his grandson's achievements and popularity.

Paul Smith is very experienced in first opening the letters, and then using printers and photocopiers to prepare the letters to the fans one by one.

A few hours later, Andy had a lot of youthful and beautiful photos of female fans in front of him, holding these almost naked photos in his hands, and Andy honestly signed them one by one, but when he saw Paul Smith holding a thick stack of photocopied replies and about to sign them, he was about to go crazy. …,

"Paul, do you have to sign all this?" Andy only wishes he could have a few more hands now.

"Of course, and according to your habits, you must sign your name in Chinese and English, you must know that many stars in the United States will sign with both hands, and I suggest you also practice." Paul Smith joked about Andy.

"Okay, I'll practice." Andy thinks Paul Smith's advice is a good one, knowing that as a star, he can fight the media and coaches, but if there are no fans, the sport is nothing.

"Andy, I've picked out a few commercial endorsements for you, maybe you're interested in reading them now." Paul Smith sat across from Andy and handed over a few papers.

Andy was also curious to stop signing, took the document and looked at it carefully, knowing that he also wanted to know that Paul Smith had chosen for him.

"Why are the endorsement contracts all in the UK, and all of them are for one year?" Andy asked, a little confused.

"Gillette razor, ck men's panties, Qingyang men's shampoo, British pepejeans brand, the first three are well-known brands in their related fields, so they are very cautious in choosing global spokespersons, with your current strength, there is no way to become their global spokesperson, as for pepejeans is a local brand, but I feel that this company has great potential and matches your temperament, they originally wanted to sign a long-term contract with me, but I have confidence in you, So I think that signing a one-year contract first increases their goodwill and improves your image by working together on a small scale, and I think the big contract will come soon after you have more success. "Paul Smith is quite confident in Andy.

"Well, you're a genius, you're a shrewd agent, I have no problem with your choice, it's all up to you, but I remember you told me about Nike and Adidas, and Coca-Cola and Pepsi two days ago?" Andy remembered that Paul Smith had asked him for his opinion some time ago.

"These two sports brands and beverage giants now let them fight slowly, they always want to sign you at the lowest price, it's really a dream, the contract is as short as three years, and it only opens to more than 1 million euros a year, as long as you perform better and better, I will make them regret it, their contract is not sincere at all in my opinion, it is not worth you at all."

As an American, Paul Smith actually leans towards Nike, but with Andy's common interests with him, he will not favor anyone because he is American.

"Okay, all that's up to you!" Andy looked at Paul Smith, who was full of shrewdness and indignation, and decided not to pay attention to these things, and continued his autograph business with his head down.

20 September, Highbury Stadium, London.

Andy has already secured the approval of Alex Ferguson, so he is still a player for this game, with the Reds in the same line-up as they did three days ago, taking on their Premier League biggest rivals with all the squad, and this is Andy's first away game.

Arsenal also played the best of their best, with all five veterans at the back playing, with Patrick Vieira leading Pettit, Parlour and Overmars in midfield, and Bergkamp and junior Nicolas Arnelka up front.

Although the fog has cleared in the afternoon, the huge boos in the stands still make people feel a kind of oppression, but also make people feel a chill that penetrates into the bone marrow, last season's double defeat in the league Manchester United reversed to win the title, so that all Arsenal fans in Highbury are full of pride.

In fact, from the beginning of this season to the present, Manchester United and Arsenal are brothers, the first four rounds of Manchester United are two draws and two wins, while Arsenal is one win and three draws, and in the Champions League group stage, it was forced to draw 1-1 by Lens in Ligue 1 away, so both sides are in urgent need of a victory to cheer themselves up. …,

Andy stood at the tee-off point, drove the ball out, and ran forward as usual, when a black player who looked like a tower rushed up and clung to him.

After just ten minutes, Andy and Vieira have had five confrontations, three of which Andy used his speed to force a breakthrough through him, but then he was destroyed by the equally tough Petit fill-in, and the other two times he could only choose to pass under Vieira's close pressing.

"Hell, do you think you two can stop me?" Andy cursed in his heart, then turned back to Giggs and Beckham and shouted, "David, Ryan try to pass the ball to me." ”

After receiving their affirmative answers, Andy, who had already been furious by Vieira and Petit, stormed their defense again and again.

Once again, he was knocked to the ground by Vieira and Petit, and Andy slapped the turf in frustration, "Damn! This! ”

For about 20 minutes, Andy still didn't have a good performance, and he played very poorly against the opponent's body.

Well, you can't ask a rookie to be voted the best in every game.

"Give me the ball!" Andy shouted behind him again.

Beckham passed the ball to Andy's feet again, and for some reason in this game, the whole Manchester United seemed to be out of shape, and Beckham, who has always passed the ball accurately, passed the ball a little off.

Andy hurriedly ran towards the football, and as he controlled the ball and was about to sprint, two Arsenal players were surrounded by him in an instant.

Andy can only choose to pass in the face of the pressure of two world-class midfielders, he has not tried to break through, but the end is often people who pass the ball, or the ball has passed and people have not passed.

When Andy's ball reached Cole's feet, it was only a dozen meters forward before it was destroyed off the bottom line, and Arsenal's defensive five veterans firmly guarded the defense with their rich experience.

Under the elimination of each other, Arsenal's attack has become more aggressive, and Overmars, a wide winger, has been very active on the field, frequently switching positions on the two wings to break through.

In the 23rd minute, Overmars forced a break down the left side of Ireland's veteran Erwin, who had no choice but to pull him to the ground, and Arsenal won a free-kick close to the left touchline.

Bergkamp lifted the ball straight into the box without a run, and Arsenal captain Adams leaped high to meet the incoming ball, and Stam slammed his head into the back of the net first.

"Gooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!!, beautiful header, Tony Adams opened the scoring and Arsenal led Manchester United 1-0!" The home commentary will not give Manchester United face, and shouted directly.

Arsenal's cheers and shouts immediately erupted at Highbury Stadium, and they had reason to rejoice, given that they were ahead of Manchester United, and a goal would be quite an advantage in a football match.

"Hell!" Old man Ferguson does have reason to be angry, the whole team seems to be out of shape today, Stam just now is pressed like a person who has just woken up, although he has only scored a goal now, but this state makes him start to worry about this game.

Andy crossed his hands on his hips, his eyes looked at the Arsenal players who were celebrating there, Vieira and Petit had taught him a lesson so far in this game, the opponent was very strong and the defensive skills were also very delicate, and what was more terrible was the tacit cooperation between the two people.

Isn't it just a goal ahead, let's see! Andy's hands slowly clenched into fists.
