Chapter 188 The Three Heroes of the Italian Peninsula (Please Subscribe)
"Wow, Peter Schmeichel is already warming up on the sidelines. It looks like Ferguson doesn't want Dejan to stay on the field any longer."

"A hat-trick and an assist made Dejan the best player on the field today, without a doubt! Ferguson may be worried that Galatasaray will commit malicious fouls, after all, the Turk has a history of doing so."

"Yes, I believe Ferguson now understands Boskov. Speaking of the former Sampdoria coach, the Italian genius Totti made his Serie A debut under him. This season, he went to Napoli to join forces with Maradona. It is said that Maradona personally selected Boskov to join. Perhaps next season, Dejan can reunite with his old friend in the Champions League."

"Neville's back pass was a bit rash, and Dejan was pressed and kicked the ball long... Good heavens, no way."

Neville's back pass was made under pressure, and it was a dangerous, difficult pass.

Hakan Sukur clearly recognized the opportunity and immediately launched an attack to create a one-on-one chance.

Lu Deyang roared and charged out from the right side of the penalty area, not even having time to adjust his body before he kicked out.

boom--

The ball soared high, even higher than the previous long kicks.

Stos didn't even dare to cross the goal line, fearing that he would be scored on again.

However, the ball's trajectory was quite bizarre; Cantona started from the top of the center circle and just happened to wait for the ball to fall.

He lifted his foot and easily stopped the ball, demonstrating excellent ball control.

Barcanli realized the danger, but it was too late. Cantona had barely controlled the ball and taken a step forward before unleashing a long-range shot.

The angle of the shot wasn't particularly tricky, but it was incredibly powerful. Stos made his first dive but couldn't hold on properly, and the ball bounced off his hands and towards the goal line. Stos then turned and dived, and the ball, under pressure, finally flew over and into the goal.

After scoring, Cantona spread his hands wide, indicating that the goal was effortless.

Receiving a pass means a one-on-one opportunity; given his skill level, he has at least 50 ways to score.

Lu Deyang raised his hands and applauded towards the stands, then walked to the sidelines.

Schmeichel had been warming up for a while, so we couldn't just let him sit back down.

“Deyan, I feel humiliated.”

Schmeichel joked, "I haven't scored a goal in my professional career yet."

"It will happen sooner or later, Peter, sooner or later!"

Lu Deyang said definitively.

Even if Schmeichel's career is altered by the "King of the Road," as long as his personality and physique remain unchanged, he will still rush forward when the team gets a chance in the final moments.

Goalkeepers typically contest headers during corner kicks, in addition to penalty kicks and free kicks.

Goalkeepers rarely venture into the opponent's penalty area unless they need to take a gamble.

"Well done, Deyang."

Ferguson smiled and handed over a towel and a water bottle.

After rinsing his mouth, Lu Deyang sat back on the bench and immediately put on his training jacket.

Even after Lu Deyang was substituted, Manchester United maintained their attacking posture and showed no intention of taking a break.

Beckham's long-range shot continued to ignite Manchester United's attack.

Manchester United ultimately won 8-0 at home.

After the final whistle blew, veteran captain Robson rushed onto the field to celebrate wildly.

Manchester United players continued to provoke the team on the sidelines.

After a brief stay, the Turks slunk away into the passageway.

This caused a deafening roar of laughter to erupt from the Theatre of Dreams.

Without the help of on-site security and police, Galatasaray's performance was truly clumsy.

They have no real ability, either on or off the field.

Lu Deyang took a marker from the stands and signed the jersey, gloves, and shoes he wore that day, giving them to different fans.

"Shorts, Dejan!!!"

A female fan shouted.

"That belongs to the princess!"

Another fan shouted.

A burst of laughter erupted from the nearby stands.

Lu Deyang made a finger-pinching gesture to shut them up.

The laughter from the stands grew even louder.

"You can't talk without taking action," is clearly a popular Italian joke.

"Tonight's dinner is on me, and nobody's allowed to go home early!"

Robson shouted.

It's a bit of a shame I couldn't play; at least I could have a good drink offstage.

It’s so refreshing!

That match brought together everything that could make you feel frustrated.

The referee was unfair.

The home team players were very aggressive.

Fans threatened their personal safety.

Most importantly, the security personnel at the scene actually chose to beat them up.

It's rare for a player to experience a match like this even after a 20-year professional career.

If Robson hadn't thrashed his opponent today, he would have been worried that he would suffer from depression after retiring.

This matter received Ferguson's approval.

After changing in the locker room, the whole team headed to the bar together.

Without the coach's permission, Manchester United's first team would never dare to be so arrogant.

At this point, a bar is a bar, not a pub. A pub is more like a nightclub that has evolved from a bar.

As soon as the wooden door was pushed open, the fan bar erupted in cheers.

The owner behind the counter generously announced, "I'll treat everyone to a round of drinks."

The atmosphere in the bar became even more lively.

An old drunkard who doesn't cheat naturally prefers this kind of atmosphere.

The essence of a nightclub lies in the dance floor, not in the atmosphere of drinking.

The fans voluntarily gave up three tables, making the bar even more crowded.

But watching football is all about the atmosphere.

“Gary, go sing for the fans,” Sharp urged.

"No, I'm afraid the fans will turn against us."

Beckham muttered, and Gary Neville quickly punched him.

Lu Deyang took a bottle of wine and held it in his hand to join in the atmosphere.

Neville glanced at the darts over there, then turned to Lu Deyang and asked, "Do you know how to play darts, Deyang?"

"It was alright, I had a good time."

Lu Deyang said.

His uncle used to often discuss business in such settings, and billiards and darts were always essential games.

After all, the people of Calabria have their own bars.

"Really? You said no last time, but you said you had a good time this time. You're not lying to me, are you?" Gary Neville asked Lu Deyang suspiciously.

He agreed too readily.

"Ten pounds a dart?"

Lu Deyang said with a smile, "Let me show you."

Gary Neville's expression shifted, but he finally shook his head.

Lu Deyang casually picked up a bottle cap from the table, flicked it with his finger, and the cap flew over Bruce's table and hit the mouth of the bottle that Hughes had placed on the table.

Beckham blew a rude whistle from the sidelines, giving Neville a mocking look.

If this guy asks for another 1000 pounds per dart, he probably won't be able to pay back his first five-year contract.

Later that night, Lu Deyang performed a live hamburger-making demonstration at the bar, and the group stayed out until after 2 a.m. before heading home.

When they got home, they found Monica sleeping soundly with the princess in her arms, and Lu Deyang did not wake them up.

However, when I woke up the next morning, things were quite different.

Lu Deyang didn't wash up and cook until after 1 p.m.

The two girls didn't know when they would be able to get up.

Lu Deyang sat at the dining table with a newspaper in his hand and began to eat slowly.

The British showed no mercy, mercilessly mocking the Turks as if they weren't the ones who had previously been the subject of widespread reports of British fans behaving rudely in Türkiye.

The Times: "A free kick from the back, two long passes from the edge of the box, a free kick from the front, and a solo long-range shot. Dejan has repeatedly broken our expectations in this game. If he were to play as a goalkeeper for a long time, Yashin would definitely relinquish his position as the greatest of all time. Dejan's style of play in this game is a revolution for the goalkeeper position. Perhaps only the French would disagree with our opinion."

The Guardian posted a photo of Dejan dribbling past an opponent and unleashing a powerful shot, writing: "When you have Dejan, everything becomes so simple. Ferguson definitely didn't expect Dejan to perform like this in this game."

The Manchester Evening News interviewed Bobby Charlton, who was watching the game live. Charlton said excitedly, "I'm having a hard time explaining what I saw tonight. Sorry, my head is spinning. Dejan showed us what the best player is like. Even as a goalkeeper, he was outstanding. He's like the Michelangelo or Mozart of the pitch. The game he played as a goalkeeper today was a work of art."

The Manchester United legend seemed quite excited.

Many South American goalkeepers like to come out of their goal.

However, few people can execute movements as concisely and efficiently as Neuer.

Add to that the goals and assists, and it's no wonder it's so impressive.

The celebrations in Manchester last night went on without stopping, which shows how excited the fans were.

When he saw the Sun newspaper, Lu Deyang almost choked.

In their first post, they wrote: "Yesterday we received a phone submission from an Italian player, but what was unusual was that this fan couldn't pronounce many words and deliberately read out the spelling of letters, which had some errors. After half an hour of proofreading, we finally understood what Gianluigi Buffon was trying to say."

Below is Buffon's submission: Manchester United is already the best team because wherever Dejan is, that's the best team. I've always wanted to play with Dejan, which is why I joined Sampdoria. Currently, I'm just a member of Sampdoria's youth team, but I'm confident I can succeed Schmeichel as the best goalkeeper in the world in the future.

Schmeichel has been named the world's best goalkeeper for the past two years.

The editors of The Sun, fearing that fans wouldn't recognize Buffon, specifically wrote about his past. He ran away from home to play football with Ludwig van Rijn, and was almost sent to Algeria as a refugee.

In the second edition, they also introduced Francesco Totti, the equally cultured young prince of Rome, and Marco Lanna, the disgrace of European men who transferred from Sampdoria to Rome.

The Sun jokingly referred to the three as the "Three Heroes of the Apennines".

Lu Deyang was truly at a loss for words, both amused and exasperated.

Lanna had finally gained the approval of Sampdoria fans, but now, because of Buffon and Totti, his past experiences have been brought up again. For a long time to come, he will once again be a representative of Europe's famous tortoise.

These three Italian stars sound just as good as the Dutch Three Musketeers.

If they finish first in their group, they will be automatically eliminated by the runner-up in Group B.

Bayern Munich only had one goal difference, while PSG had a surprising nine.

George Weah performed exceptionally well in this group stage.

This directly helped PSG successfully turn Bayern Munich into Manchester United's quarter-final opponent.

I wonder what Matthäus's expression will be when he sees Lu Deyang after returning to Bayern Munich.

It's quite a special coincidence that we could meet again after leaving Serie A.

There were basically no strong teams in December, and Lu Deyang only made a few occasional substitute appearances before Christmas arrived.

The lack of a winter break in the Premier League does have some impact.

On Christmas Day, after Manchester United won 3-2 away against Chelsea, the players rushed home to celebrate the holiday.

Neither team's players cared about the outcome of this match.

If it weren't for the players' strong protests, the FA would have wanted to schedule the match for the evening so that fans could watch it after dinner. They really don't treat the players like human beings at all.

12 month 30 day.

Manchester United have finally met a heavyweight opponent.

On the bus to Highbury, Steve Bruce said, "When you were injured, we didn't win the home game, and Arsenal were arrogant for a long time."

"They're already 12th in the standings, what's there to be arrogant about?"

Gary Neville said with a sneer.

Graham's scandal was exposed, revealing that he had received £25 in transfer fees twice from Swedish agent Haug, who brought in two flops.

This matter has caused considerable controversy.

Although the Arsenal board expressed its support for Graham.

However, some journalists are still investigating the matter, and it's hard to say that Arsenal's performance wasn't affected by Graham's situation.

Even so, Arsenal remains one of the most important title contenders.

You absolutely cannot lose the game when the opponent is not performing well.

The atmosphere on the bus was relaxed; clearly, no one took Arsenal seriously at this point.

When Lu Deyang got off the bus, he could feel the difference in the atmosphere at Highbury.

Arsenal fans are not as enthusiastic as before.

Clearly, the team's performance has not given them enough confidence, which is completely different from when they last met.

"Let's go see your old friend."

Ferguson pulled Lu Deyang along as they walked toward the press room.

The old Scottish man was clearly enjoying watching Graham make a fool of himself.

Among so many competitors, it's estimated that only Wenger and Mourinho could earn Ferguson's mutual respect.

Both players put enough pressure on Ferguson with their consistently high performance over a long period.

Moreover, everyone can see the changes that the professor has brought to English football.

That Arsenal team was the first to establish a nutritional diet.

It is said that the professor got the inspiration while teaching in Japan.

Therefore, it's quite normal for Japanese football to rise to prominence.

At this point, they already had some leading ideas.

Graham's life is clearly not going well; his Mediterranean side has become noticeably grayer.

This Arsenal manager, who likes to wear wool coats, tried hard to project a good image, but it was obvious to everyone that he wasn't in good shape.

“George, you need to pay Arsenal £25 plus interest, and a £5 fine. Will this affect your finances?”

"Mr. Graham, what are your considerations in bringing in these players?"

"There's been a lot of discussion about the goalkeeper position lately. Have you considered bringing in a goalkeeper who can score goals, George?"

This was clearly a joke directed at Graham.

“Mr. Graham, Merson’s alcohol problem has been resolved, but he no longer has a chance, right?”

Paul Merson's alcoholism was so severe that he had to undergo alcohol rehabilitation.

That former Dream Theatre darling is not doing well now.

This is my first time attending a press conference, and my competitor is so popular.

The reporter then asked questions about Manchester United.

"Dejan, will you still play as goalkeeper next?"

"Alex, what are you unhappy with about Manchester United's squad? Will you be making any signings in January?"

Every year around this time, player transfers are an unavoidable topic of discussion.

Cantona joined Manchester United the winter before last.

Reporters are clearly paying close attention to Ferguson's winter signings.

Especially during this period, there were widespread rumors that he was preparing to purge Mark Hughes.

Graham gestured for Ferguson to answer first, saying there were too many questions from the reporters and he needed to think about them.

Ferguson pulled up to the microphone and said, "We will make some adjustments to our signings, but I won't tell you where we're headed."

"Andy Cole, is it?"

one reporter asked.

"Damn it, I already told you I wouldn't tell you where to recruit players."

Ferguson said, somewhat annoyed.

The reporter was right.

Since the mishap with signing Gascoigne, Ferguson has become much more cautious in this regard.

They were afraid that their competitors would come forward and offer better terms.

After all, there are no other alternatives for players of this caliber.

Deploying a few smoke bombs to disrupt the opponent's vision, etc.

Even when Kenyon defected, Ferguson's signings didn't really have a Plan B, and in hindsight, there weren't any truly promising replacements for players like Robben and Cech.

"Mark Hughes has been plagued by injuries; will he leave the team?"

The reporter pressed for an answer.

"I don't know. Mark is important, but football isn't fortune telling. I can't guarantee what will happen in the summer." After saying that, Ferguson pushed away the microphone.

Today's questions clearly annoyed him.

Seeing this, Graham immediately chimed in, "I know something's not right, but it just happened. It's hard to refuse a reward of £10, isn't it?"

"So you brought in players who didn't meet Arsenal's standards?" The reporter's questions began to get sharp.

"No, I just selected players within reasonable limits. The agent's actions only made me more inclined to favor his players, but I guarantee that every signing met the standards."

Graham said.

Taking money is one thing, but taking money to deliberately cheat the team is another.

He wants to continue coaching in England in the future, so he absolutely cannot admit to that.

"What about Merson? I heard that you two have completely stopped communicating?"

The reporter pressed for an answer.

Arsenal is all the news.

Paul Merson was Highbury's idol.

“I have nothing to say. Everyone has their own choices. You can’t order fish and chips at a restaurant, leave for hours, and then go back to ask the waiter why the plate was taken away. Paul wanted his plate, so he had to pay again. It’s that simple.”

Graham said meaningfully.

"You mean if Merson pays you, you can get a starting position?"

the reporter asked.

"Enough, damn it, I don't want to say a word to you!"

Graham rose in a rage.

His analogy clearly suggests that Merson needs to work hard to secure his position.

The reporters interpreted it as him wanting to collect money.

Ferguson couldn't even hold it in and could only cover it up with a cough.

You can't gloat over someone's misfortune in person, or you'll easily incur resentment.

Only Lu Deyang remained at the scene.

A reporter asked, "Dejan, what position do you hope Manchester United will make signings for?"

"That's the coach's and the chairman's business. Asking me won't help. If you want to know who I want to play with, I can tell you Pelé, Cruyff, Beckenbauer, Charlton, Best, and quite a few others. Do you want me to continue?"

Lu Deyang smiled and asked in return.

Ferguson couldn't help but chuckle.

Lu Deyang's answer was clever; he didn't mention the names of any current players at all.

"So what do you think of Andy Cole? Does he deserve the Manchester United jersey?" the reporter pressed.

The fact that Cole's agent was photographed suggests he couldn't possibly be discussing a transfer with Manchester City.

“I don’t know much about Andy, but he’s excellent on the pitch. As for whether he will wear a Manchester United jersey, that’s not something I should say.”

Lu Deyang said.

Ferguson grabbed the microphone and said, "If you don't care about today's game, then the press conference is over."

Amid the reporter's mournful gaze, he nodded, signaling Lu Deyang to leave directly.

These bastards just want news, not to pay attention to the game.

As he walked toward the locker room, Ferguson paused and said, "You see what happened to Graham, right? When you're in a certain position, you absolutely cannot make mistakes."

Ferguson was referring to a reporter's joke about Graham taking money to pay his key players.

"I understand, Coach."

Lu Deyang said.

As Lanna's teammate, Lu Deyang felt this deeply.

Ferguson then patted Lu Deyang on the shoulder, and they walked together into the locker room.

"Dejan is on the bench today, so try to score against Arsenal in the first half."

Ferguson went straight into the locker room and said.

He had thought about this for a long time, but he was still uneasy about Arsenal's playing style.

"Okay, boss!"

Schmeichel shouted.

"What's the use of shouting? Do you think you can score a goal?"

Bruce asked.

He was punched as soon as he finished speaking.

Schmeichel preferred to express her emotions with her hands.

After changing his jersey, Lu Deyang chose to participate in the lucky draw.

[Your good brother Francesco Totti faced temptation time and time again, refusing it all, and eventually became a legend in Rome. So, draw a player who failed to stick with the team. Ding! You have obtained a single-match trial card for the 11th round of the 2012-2013 Premier League season, Manchester United vs. Arsenal: Robin van Persie.]

King of Wooden Sticks!
The Dutch Three Musketeers, though their individual attributes were slightly inferior to the Three Musketeers.

However, they all had Ballon d'Or level ability at their peak.

Van Persie's shooting skills are truly exceptional.

Especially in aerial maneuvers, he is far superior to Mancini in this respect.

No matter what kind of ball his teammates pass him, Van Persie always finds a way to shoot without stopping the ball.

this point is very important.

With less time to adjust, defenders have significantly fewer opportunities to disrupt your shot.

To become a high-scoring striker, you need to have at least one of the following: first-time shooting, quick positioning, or the ability to dribble past opponents and then shoot.

After warming up with his teammates, Lu Deyang sat down on the bench.

This relieved the Arsenal players.

The formations of both teams today were also very interesting, a 5-2-3 versus a 4-3-3.

Knowing that Graham preferred a conservative approach, Ferguson fielded three forwards at once: McClair, Cantona, and Hughes.

Arsenal relied on Jimmy Carter and Ian Wright to fly down the wings and pass the ball to Alan Smith, while the five veteran defenders held their ground.

The strategies employed by both teams clearly demonstrate that Manchester United is focused on winning, while Arsenal is waiting to launch counter-attacks and play high balls.

The scene after the opening was the same.

Arsenal, ranked twelfth, have completely lost their previous championship spirit and are playing more like thugs, committing fouls more frequently than before.

Arsenal received two yellow cards in just 10 minutes of the first half.

This was only because the referee was lenient with them due to their home advantage.

"They kicked so dirty!"

"I can't believe it," Keane remarked from the bench.

Lu Deyang almost couldn't help but laugh. To receive such praise from Keane, one can only imagine what kind of style of play this Arsenal team has.

"Maybe one day they'll become the most entertaining team to play in Europe."

Lu Deyang raised an eyebrow and said.

"Ah……"

If Lu Deyang hadn't said that, Keane would have cursed him out.

He dared not even think about that scenario.

"Don't you believe me, Roy?"

Lu Deyang asked.

"I can't imagine," Keane said, pointing to the field. "Are they going to turn into the Dutch team, good at both playing football and tackling?"

"Maybe there's a coach who can change them."

Lu Deyang said.

"If that's the case, I'll give you a Ferrari."

Keane said.

"no need."

"Don't refuse, but I don't think you have a chance of getting it."

Keane said with certainty.

Lu Deyang was a little embarrassed.

They were just chatting casually when Keane offered to buy him a car.

It can only be said that the professor was too great, otherwise who could have imagined that such a team would become the Arsenal they later became.

The relentless, fluid attack had absolutely nothing to do with the team on the field.

They were either tackling or preparing to launch a long ball.

If the referee had used the standards of other leagues, Arsenal wouldn't have been able to play.

"Without me and Fernando, they acted like a bunch of women."

Keane couldn't help but curse.

"That means your teammates aren't very good."

Lu Deyang advised.

Keane snorted coldly and did not refute.

He was clearly very dissatisfied with the performances of Ince and Gillespie.

At halftime, the two teams returned to the locker room with a score of 0-0.

Gary Neville immediately pointed to his socks and said, "I've never gotten this dirty playing in the youth team, even in a pair of moon socks. Adams just kicked my shin."

“Then kick it back, stop complaining here,” Keane said, glaring at him.

Neville immediately shut his mouth.

Ferguson stared at the starting lineup for a moment before saying, "Twelfth place. Your opponents are also twelfth, but you're behaving like you're eighteenth. If you don't want to play, I can put you in the FA Youth Cup!"

Upon hearing that they were to be demoted to the youth team, many people quickly lowered their heads.

Ferguson's words were not meant to intimidate them.

"So I need to bring Dejan on to solve them, right? With your performance, I might as well buy a few more defenders and let Dejan play in the attacking third."

Ferguson looked at Hughes and said, "You're running like a 50-year-old Dalglish."

"Boss, Dalglish seems to be only in his forties."

Gary Neville said.

Ferguson glared at him and said, "You look like a 50-year-old Alan Hansen. Even Alan Senner doesn't talk as much as you!"

Gary Neville shrank back.

Being quick-tongued isn't his problem.

He's been like this since he was a child.

"Twenty minutes, I'll give you another twenty minutes. If you still can't score, I'll bring Dejan on, understand?" Ferguson asked.

"understood!!!"

Lu Deyang pursed his lips.

I've decided to have a talk with Ferguson when I have time.

The King of Land Balls doesn't want to be on the opposite side of the locker room.

Don't always bring up Lu Qiu Wang when criticizing others. Instead, tell your story of 45 goals in 51 games. Lu Qiu Wang loves to hear that!
After halftime, Keane returned to the field and, before even sitting down, said, "Just watch, they definitely won't score. Hughes has become a liability."

Lu Deyang frowned slightly.

No wonder Keane was later kicked out.

He loves commenting on his teammates' performances too much.

Although it's the truth, it will definitely affect the unity of the locker room.

It would be strange if Ferguson could tolerate it.

Keane's best fit as a coach would be the one currently translating for Sir Bobby Robson. He is not only tough himself, but also demands that his teammates be tough as well, perfectly fitting Mourinho's criteria for captain.

Add to that Materazzi, who was willing to die for Mourinho, and the scene becomes simply too beautiful.

In the 68th minute, Cantona received the ball in the middle and turned to pass it to Mark Hughes, who was in a better position. Hughes was a step too slow, and the ball was poked directly out of the penalty area by Winterburn.

"Deyang, get up and warm up."

Ferguson returned to the front of the bench and spoke.

Lu Deyang nodded and took off his training jacket.

"Ferguson couldn't help but make a substitution. If Dejan scores again in this game, it will be his ninth consecutive substitute appearance with a goal."

"Arsenal's defensive resolve was very strong, and Manchester United's three forwards were unable to pose any threat to them. Perhaps Ferguson should strengthen the midfield."

Ferguson had clearly thought of this as well, and he turned and beckoned to Beckham with his finger.

Beckham jumped up from his seat and almost tripped over himself while taking off his training jacket, which made the fans in the nearby stands burst into laughter.

"We're on stage together again, Dejan."

Beckham leaned over and said.

"Yeah, keep it up, David."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

Beckham nodded vigorously.

Despite being around the same age, Lu Deyang was sweeping across Europe when Lu Deyang hadn't even joined Manchester United yet.

He had only recently joined Manchester United's youth academy when Sampdoria faced Manchester United.

Lu Deyang gave him the feeling that he was a star player from a previous era.

This prompted Beckham to adopt the same attitude he would show to his older brothers.

A few minutes later, Lu Deyang and Beckham stood together on the sidelines.

"Substitutions have been made. Dejan replaced Hughes, and Beckham replaced McClair. Ferguson couldn't resist making changes to the starting lineup. Mark Hughes' performance today was indeed not very good. This striker, who has played for Manchester United twice over a total of 15 years, may be nearing the end of his career. Sitting on the bench and watching his teammates play is the best option for him."

Martin Taylor said.

He had just come on when he was given a corner kick, and Lu Deyang went straight into the penalty area.

"Are you going to take the penalty, Dejan?"

"Irwin asked."

"Why don't we let David give it a try?"

Lu Deyang said.

Irwin turned to look at Beckham.

Although I knew this handsome boy had good footwork, his youthful face still made it hard to believe.

"Okay, you go and give it a try."

"Irwin said."

This was the first time he had given up a corner kick on the left, which was the most comfortable spot for him to kick.

Beckham looked at Lu Deyang with some gratitude.

Lu Deyang smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Play well and try to create a scoring opportunity."

Beckham nodded firmly and closed his eyes tightly.

I was afraid that people would see my slightly moist eyes.

He was even forced to fight in front of Clayton Blackmore's calendar when he joined the team, the contrast is too stark.

Beckham was determined to seize this opportunity.

Pretending to bend down to tie his shoelaces, Beckham casually wiped his right eye with the back of his hand, then stood behind the corner flag, taking several deep breaths and observing the situation in the penalty area.

Accuracy is one aspect of assisting teammates from corner kicks.

Another aspect is having the ability to anticipate and predict where teammates might appear.

Seeing Lu Deyang walk towards the edge of the penalty area, and recalling matches I'd watched before, Beckham had a clear advantage.

call--

He exhaled another breath, took a step forward with his left foot, and swung his right leg out.

The ball headed straight for the near post of the penalty area.

Sure enough, Lu Deyang suddenly flipped over and rushed behind Lee Dixon, leaping up and whipping his head around.

boom--

The ball flew into the far corner of the goal.

Lu Deyang, who scored the goal, passionately slid down to his knees and hugged Beckham, completely igniting the entire Theatre of Dreams.

"Deyang!!!"

"Dejan Goal!"

"He has scored in nine consecutive substitute appearances, and today Dejan scored just three seconds after coming on as a substitute, giving Manchester United the lead."

"Graham's plan has completely failed. He held on for 70 minutes but still couldn't hold on for a draw."

"Football is indeed a sport where 21 people play for 90 minutes, one person plays for 87 minutes, Dejan plays for 3 minutes, and in the end, Dejan wins..."
