I am the king of football

Chapter 208 Reunion of old friends

After returning home, Qin Hu welcomed Lin Lan who had returned from vacation. After gradually adapting to life in the UK, this little girl was not much more idle than Qin Hu every day. She often followed her school tutors around to do some research.

Qin Hu was naturally very supportive of this. His current income was incomparable to before, so he transferred a sum of money to Lin Lan with a wave of his hand. Although Lin Lan did not want to rely on Qin Hu so much at first, she finally accepted it after Qin Hu said that she could repay him after she finished her studies.

The relationship and the way they get along with each other are completely different from when they were in China. After staying in the UK for a long time, the implicit feelings between them have gradually been revealed. In addition, Boss Qin has no objection, so now the way this young couple gets along is actually a bit like a couple.

That’s right, at this point, neither side has confessed their love yet, which I can only say is quite interesting.

After giving Lin Lan the ticket for tomorrow's game, Qin Hu went back to his room early to sleep after eating the steak she had fried for him. Lin Lan was thoughtful and did not disturb him after bringing him a cup of warm milk. The next day, she would cheer for Qin Hu in the audience.

Before going to bed, Qin Hu also chatted with Kane for a while. This tacit partner in Hull City now serves different masters, but it does not affect their personal relationship.

The two agreed that whoever won the game tomorrow would treat the other to dinner, and they also agreed to bring their female companions. This was also the first time that Kane saw the real female gambling god, who he learned from Qin Hu that her gambling skills were actually better than Qin Hu's.

Without further ado, the entire Manchester United team gathered again at their own training base the next morning. The game was timed in the afternoon local time, and they took this opportunity to rehearse the team's tactics.

After observing that none of the starting players had any problems with their form, Ferguson finalized the team's starting lineup and handed it over to the tournament committee.

Two hours before the game, the Tottenham bus appeared on the streets of Manchester United's influence zone. Prior to that, they arrived from London a day in advance and practiced together for a period of time at the training ground of their arch-rivals Manchester City.

The boos and bright red flags made Bai Baihe's pure white bus stand out so much, making it difficult for them to avoid the demonstrations from Manchester United fans.

Fortunately, Villas-Boas had asked everyone to wear headphones in advance. The young players on the bus were more curious and interested. They have defeated many strong opponents this season, and their desire to win against Manchester United is far greater than their fear.

When both teams appeared at the training ground at Old Trafford, Qin Hu saw Kane in a white jersey from a distance, smiling and nodding at him.

The two young men, both under the age of 20, already had an extraordinary teammate friendship. They looked at each other and waved to each other as a greeting.

Afterwards, due to the importance of this event, the coaches of both teams, Ferguson and Villas-Boas, asked their players to focus on warming up, so there was no additional interaction between the two.

When both sides returned to the locker room and walked out again, Qin Hu, who was standing side by side with Kane in the player tunnel, had time to chat with his old friend.

"Well, Harry? This is Old Trafford."

"Hehe, Qin, White Hart Lane is not bad either. Except that it's a little smaller than here, the fans' momentum is just as strong."

"Huh? There will be a chance."

The two did not chat about the game, but said things that were not directly related until the referee waved the teams into the field.

"Okay, time's up, come in!"

After looking at each other again, the previously leisurely expressions of the old friends had completely changed, and as both were super geniuses, the impulse to compete with each other was finally released.

"I won't let you go, Qin."

"Me too!"

"CCTV, CCTV! Dear viewers, welcome to watch the sixth round of the 2012-2013 Premier League, Manchester United vs. Tottenham Hotspur at home. I am the commentator, Zhan Jun!"

As the two teams entered the stadium, Zhan Jun's voice once again reached the ears of all the fans sitting in front of the TV. As he commented on one game after another, everyone had become accustomed to his voice and commentary style.

"This red-white battle is not only a contest between the two teams that are still unbeaten in the league, but also a reunion between the former twin stars of Hull City. Qin Hu will face his old friend Harry Kane who has come from afar at his home stadium, which is definitely a highlight." On the court, the captains of the two teams quickly completed the captain's rock-paper-scissors session. Bai Baihe of the visiting team chose the kick-off right, and Kane had already arrived at the serving point with the ball.

"Both young forwards are in excellent form recently. Let's see who can perform better in a direct confrontation!!!"

“Sh ...

The whistle sounded and the game began.

Tottenham played in a 4231 formation in this game. Obviously, against Manchester United led by Ferguson, Villas-Boas still maintained a cautious deployment of troops.

Goalkeeper Friedel, four defenders Vertonghen, Gallas, Caulker, Walker, double defensive midfielders Sandro and Dembele, three midfielders No. 7 Lennon, No. 2 Dempsey and No. 11 Bale who is in great form now. As for the striker, it is naturally Harry Kane who replaced Defoe because of his excellent form.

When the game started, Kane quickly passed the ball to the three midfield teammates behind him. Then, Lennon, who had the ball, passed the ball directly to the left, and Bale, who had the ball, accelerated and crossed the half court.

Although they used a 4231 formation, it would be a big mistake to understand Tottenham's style of play as controlling the ball and advancing. Their crazy front four have never been the kind of people who would defend honestly.

"Bale got the ball and broke through from the wing. Giggs was the first to face him. He chose his position very well. He blocked the path that Bale had to take to accelerate! Oh my! He passed the ball directly. Bale's speed was so fast that he seemed to be flying in the clouds!"

In the 20th second of the game, Bale, nicknamed the Monkey King by domestic fans, explained to everyone the origin of his nickname. When the Tottenham expeditionary force at the scene saw that their team's nuclear weapon exploded directly at the beginning of the game, a huge cheer sounded instantly.

For a moment, some stunned Manchester United fans did not react in time and used booing to suppress the opponent.

Giggs was trapped, but Ferguson's backup plan still existed. Carrick and Evra moved almost at the same time. Before the team's formation was formed, they directly blocked Bale's next breakthrough route.

After trying to pull the ball left and right to no avail, Bale simply rode forward along the sidelines. When he was about to reach the position where Evra could directly intercept the ball, he passed the ball to the front right with a loud bang.

"Wow! This pass is really powerful, not everyone can handle it~"

Zhan Jun had to complain that Bale's passing was simply screening the strength of his teammates, but it was this screening that led to the subsequent scene.

In the first minute and forty seconds of the game, Harry Kane touched Bale's pass while cutting into the left flank of Manchester United. Facing the flanks of Evans and Evra, he simply chose to stop and pass.

"Nice move! Evans didn't block the space immediately, and Kane stopped and passed directly into the penalty area!!!"

"Oh!"

The shot came so fast and so fiercely that before even two minutes had passed, the ball had already flown towards the goal.

Evans, who had been chasing back desperately, finally appeared at this moment. He stretched out his thigh to try to interfere with Kane's shot.

The fact is, he did it, and the ball hit the outside of his thigh, but the result was that he ruined the game again, because the ball that hit the outside of his thigh was directly deflected and still flew towards the goal.

"The ball, the ball refracted! De Gea dived in the wrong direction, and the ball went in! In the second minute of the game, the ball went into the net dramatically~"

"boom!!!"

The entire Old Trafford stadium was filled with the loud cheers of Bai Baihe's fans. Some fans who had not even taken their seats were stunned. No one expected that the climax of the game would come so quickly.
