Chapter 010: A Gorgeous Performance
On September 2, 2003, Wolverhampton's Islamic Stadium was now crowded with people, and all kinds of shouts resounded.
Fans have been waiting for the long-awaited match between Wolverhampton youth and Manchester United, with the Islamic Stadium being the home of Wolves' youth team.
Although it was only a match between youth teams, there were almost 5,000 people here today, which shows how much attention the fans are paying attention to this game. Manchester United fans also came with the team in the thousands, but compared to the number of fans in Wolverhampton, the gap is too big, and this is home advantage.
In ten minutes, the game was about to start, and Wang Li and other players were already waiting in the players' tunnel, next to the players of Manchester United's youth team.
Both sides looked at each other as if everyone was practicing the "kill you with their eyes" technique
Woodgate Sr. and Manchester United youth team coach Paul McGuinness were laughing and talking about something in front of them, and their expressions seemed to tell the others that they were getting along very well, but the two coaches were definitely old foxes with knives in their smiles, and their words were full of-for-tat.
"Mr. Wood, meet again, how is your health?" Paul McGuinness said with a smile.
"Oh, it's Paul, I'm fine, I heard that Manchester United haven't been doing very well lately, is it that your players are going to be called out again? I'm a little worried about your players, if they lose to Wolverhampton today, will it affect their careers? Old Wood said with a wicked smile.
"Hehe, Mr. Wood, you still like to joke so much, I just don't know how good your players are. Cass is very good, I spoke to Sir Alex Ferguson last time and he has some admiration for Pitt, but I don't know if he wants to come to Manchester United. Paul McGuinness shot back with a smile on his face.
This hit the weakness of old Wood, if Manchester United poached, Wolverhampton really has no good way, and who player doesn't want to play in the giants?
"Hmph, don't be complacent, little Paul, don't cry if you lose for a while."
"Cut, I'll lose?"
After saying that, the two of them parted happily and went back to their respective teams.
With the referee's whistle, the players entered the field one after another, and the commentators who arrived at this time also got the squad for the game.
"Dear friends, today's game is about to start, the players of Wolverhampton Youth and Manchester United Youth have entered the stadium, and now I will announce our Wolverhampton Youth squad and the goalkeeper is still Tom. Smith, defender Pierre. Cooper, Tim. Silko winger Laures. Baker, Allen. Who is this, king? What a strange surname, this may be a new player to the team, let's ignore him first, and then striker Harrierson. Clark and our Pete. Cass!!! ”
Speaking of this, the commentator paused, and after the cheers from the audience had passed, he continued with some confusion: "Today our Wolverhampton youth team lined up a strange formation, 523 formation? It's so rare, and perhaps old Mr. Woodgate has come up with some brilliant idea, which is quite astonishing. I just don't know how Manchester United's youth team will respond? ”
After Paul McGuinness heard this, a hint of ridicule appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said in his heart that we don't have to deal with it at all, Manchester United Youth Team and Wolverhampton Youth Team are not a team of the same grade at all, no matter what intrigue the other side plays, it is impossible to beat Manchester United.
The game on the pitch has already begun, with Wolverhampton being given kick-off.
Pitt knocked the ball to Harilson, who was next to him, and ran towards the United half. Harilson quickly pushed the ball to Tim who came up from behind. Silco also ran straight towards the opponent's half.
Wang Li did not rush forward, but ran to the right, and he and Laurais. Baker needs to try to open up space on both sides and attract opposing defenders in order to reduce the pressure on Pitt and Harilson and ensure that the goal is scored.
After a few passes, the ball reached Wang Li's feet, and immediately a Manchester United player ran over.
Richardson watched the brunette boy in front of him, who was younger than him, get the ball, and he felt that it was a good opportunity to break the ball, this kid must have just joined Wolverhampton's youth team, and the position of the run was completely textbook-like.
So he immediately ran to Wang Li's side and stretched out his foot to kick the ball hard.
Wang Li watched Richardson rush over like a reckless man, and then stretched out his foot to cut off his ball, he was a little puzzled, Manchester United's players are not very good, don't you know that such a kick is easy to be passed? He casually flicked the ball to the right with his left foot, and his body brushed past Richardson's left, and the simple ball was divided, all the way away.
At this time, Bart behind Richardson came to make up for the defense, at this time Wang Li suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his head, his right foot stepped directly on the ball, and the internal force slowly entered the toes, using a "sticky" word in martial arts, the body rotated 180 degrees, his back was towards Bart, and then his left foot was raised and stood on the ball, his body squatted, and bent back, and his body fell backwards, he took turns with his feet on the ball, and walked forward with his back a few steps in a row.
At this time, Pete behind him didn't know what to do, Wang Li pressed him backwards, so that there was at least a meter between him and the ball, and it stands to reason that he should be very unbalanced when he stepped on the ball with his feet, and he was also waiting for this brunette boy to make a fool of himself, but this brunette didn't know how to do it, he didn't fall but walked a few steps in his direction, he was already a little stupid
After a few steps, Wang Li kicked the ground with his right foot, put his left foot down, and the ball automatically rolled to his right leg under his habitual name, he picked it back, and the ball crossed a beautiful arc in the air and fell towards the Manchester United goal.
At this time, the whole stadium was quiet, and everyone in the entire stadium looked stupidly at the black-haired boy who was dancing on the football just now, and their minds were a little numb, so that they didn't react at all.
However, Harilson remained sober, he was more serious about the goal than anything else, and the ball landed right above his head.
Jumping hard, he slammed his head into the ball, and after a twist, the ball headed straight for Manchester United. At this time, Manchester United's goalkeeper was still looking at Wang Li stupidly, and when the ball flew towards the goal, he reacted in a little confusion, but it was obviously too late
The ball hit the net accurately, setting off a beautiful wave.
