If you are a brother, come and play football

Chapter 241 He bites people while kicking a ball (Please subscribe)
A Maradona-esque goal!
Although the British didn't like Maradona.

But when it comes to goals scored from the wing, it's easy to think of that Argentinian.

Moreover, Maradona's goal wasn't scored from the wing of the penalty area, but from the sideline.

Those who can be called "King of Football" all have some skill.

Maradona was born in this era of advanced broadcasting technology. From almost any angle you wanted to see, he would score, and each one was spectacular.

It's not just about dribbling skills that makes someone a football king; even his long passes are almost as good as Matthäus'.

So, the reason why later star players lack distinctive characteristics is that they have a talent problem.

Not only are they aggressive in defense, but they are also top-notch in every aspect of their offense. You can't even beat them in one area, so what does that have to do with the development of football?

Roy Evans stood with his hands in his pockets, watching the game.

He shook his head helplessly.

The players had all returned to their positions, but he couldn't stop them; there was nothing he could do about it.

Lu Deyang's footwork was not only fast, but his attacks were also decisive.

Other players might have dribbled past their opponents and shot from a tight angle, but Lu Deyang only managed to create a tiny opening before chipping the ball into the far corner.

Even if Baresi came, let alone Liverpool's defenders, he couldn't do anything about it.

The defending side cannot completely deny the attacking side any angle. Even if you guess the opponent's move correctly, the defending side will still be a little slower.

These kinds of goals are unstoppable, regardless of who the defender is.

On the contrary, McAteer and his team did not make any mistakes in this defensive play.

On the bench, veteran Rush stared wide-eyed.

He is Liverpool's best striker since Dalglish.

He's the best at using clever tricks.

Physical conditions generally allow one to achieve this level of accomplishment.

However, after seeing Lu Deyang's performance, he felt that he was still a little lacking.

There is a technological gap.

The bigger issue is mindset.

How cruel!
They'll shoot at the door if there's even the slightest chance.

This is something that most strikers can't do.

Like Robbie Fowler, the current Liverpool prodigy.

That's just hype.

As a striker with poor physical attributes, Rush naturally looked down on strikers who could only shoot.

In his view, Fowler's ceiling is just a mini-Shiller.

He can get into position, dribble the ball and then shoot; occasionally he can be used as a center forward, but that's it.

He's a decent striker, but to call him a genius compared to Dalglish would be to underestimate the potential of geniuses.

He thinks Liverpool will lose badly in today's match.

With a midfield trio and a defensively inept McManaman, Manchester United's attack would be incredibly accurate.

Any player with a modicum of insight has realized just how important the midfield is in this era.

It's easier for the midfielders to win possession and pass the ball out quickly, which leads to an attack.

Manchester United appears to be playing a 4-4-2 formation, but Cantona is actually a number 9.5, almost like a five-man midfielder.

Thinking of this, Rush couldn't help but shake his head. Roy Evans was really no good.

The ball was thrown from the backfield, and Fowler raised his foot and stomped on it.

This Liverpool prodigy was still not convinced.

Few people in competitive sports will easily admit defeat.

However, he also admitted that he couldn't beat Lu Deyang. That's his mentality: I can't beat you, but I just won't accept it.

Fowler passed the ball across to Collymore, who then passed it back to Redknapp.

Collymore is a typical English center forward, but he has very poor ball control.

Fowler is a bit better than him, but he can't compare to number nine and a half.

The combination of the two relies heavily on passes from their teammates behind them, rather than on players like Rush who can create opportunities.

Little Ray received the ball and immediately passed it to McManaman.

This genius's tactical role is similar to that of Lu Deyang.

Keane rushed forward immediately; he always had the urge to teach the young English talent a lesson.

McManaman knew Keane had ill intentions and dared not touch the ball too much.

Liverpool's genius flicked the ball forward, and it landed behind Keane.

He wanted to outrun Keane to steal the ball.

However, he underestimated Keane's movements, and while running, Keane delivered a powerful elbow strike to McManaman's chest.

McManaman fell to the ground.

beep—

Upon hearing the whistle, Keane spread his hands to indicate his complete innocence.

Dermot Gallagher's eyelids twitched; if that elbow had gone any higher, it could have choked McManaman.

The referee showed Keane a yellow card immediately.

"Referee, this isn't my fault!"

Keane shouted angrily.

“Referee, we have no objections.” Redondo went up, hugged Keane, and left.

Oh shit.

I'll work with this guy for a while.

Redondo already knew Keane's tactics very well.

Whether to make a move or not in the scramble for the first point.

They won't admit it even after they've done it.

He refused to admit it and even received a card, immediately giving the referee a hard time.

Sometimes when the referee doesn't see clearly, we give him some leeway.

Even if the verdict isn't overturned, the officiating against Keane will likely be relaxed.

This is also a common tactic to put pressure on the referees.

Things like ganging up on the referee actually have benefits; otherwise, why would so many people go up and talk to the referee if they had nothing better to do?

"Is that guy trying to kill someone? One yellow card isn't enough!"

Evans shouted to the field.

If Keane had received a red card, we might have won today.

Unfortunately, before he could say another word, an enraged Ferguson rushed to the fourth official, turned around, and yelled at him, "You damn bastard, don't try to pressure the referee! You want to win by dirty tricks? Don't think nobody knows! If you're so afraid of physical contact, you should play billiards, not football!"

The table tennis that Ferguson was referring to was ping-pong.

The current president of the International Table Tennis Federation is also named Roy Evans.

Even when he's angry and swearing, he remains very organized.

Therefore, it's difficult to tell whether he did it on purpose.

Evans wanted to retort, but didn't know what to say.

After all, this has been the style of English football from the First Division to the present.

It's understandable that Keane wouldn't get a card if the referee changed his approach.

The fourth official tried to mediate, but Ferguson pointed at Evans without saying anything more before being led back to the coaching bench by Kidrag.

“That guy was scared by you. I heard he values ​​youth training a lot. You two should have some common ground on that point,” Kidd joked.

When Ferguson arrived at Manchester United, he strengthened the youth training program.

Beckham and his team are his achievements.

“Then I have something in common with men, since we all pee standing up.”

Ferguson said irritably.

Kidd chuckled dryly from the side.

This old man, he always snaps at people when he gets angry.

……

Liverpool kicked off in the attacking third, and Fowler passed the ball back to Barnes.

McClair went up to press, and Barnes immediately passed to the advancing McCarty.

If the full-backs in a five-man defense don't push forward, it's too difficult to play.

McAteer knocked the ball several meters away, then accelerated to retrieve it.

The goal is to use speed to get to Manchester United's half as quickly as possible.

Lu Deyang's symbolic pressing was bypassed, and Erwin immediately rushed up and slid in at the right moment.

Although he couldn't steal the ball, he forced McAteer to move to the middle.

With Redondo and Keane in the middle, is it really that easy to traverse? Even Maradona would have to pull and drag him around.

Redondo stretched out his leg and went straight at McAteer's body. McAteer tried to turn and shield the ball, but Irwin on the wing simply stretched out his leg and poked the ball to the vicinity of the center circle.

Keane's location is a bit far.

But Cantona had a short distance to retreat, so he quickly went up and poked the ball back to Keane.

As soon as Keane got the ball, Jamie Redknapp rushed over.

In his haste, Keane had no choice but to turn and pass the ball back.

The pass was a little weak, and Collymore was thinking of intercepting it.

Seeing this, Pallister didn't care about accuracy anymore and went up to kick him hard.

The ball grazed Collymore's calf and flew towards the left wing.

After the ball flew past the center line, it landed right in front of Phil Bab. The black defender jumped up and tried to clear the ball with a Bundesliga logo-like motion, but missed.

Seeing this, Lu Deyang, who had initially given up hope, turned around, caught up with the bouncing ball, adjusted his footing, raised his left toes, and struck the ball with his right foot.

boom--

The ball flew directly between Scholes and Mark Wright and headed straight for the goal. David James saw this and dived to the side, stretching out his arm a long way, but once again he became the backdrop, as the ball flew under the crossbar and into the net on the right.

"Goal!"

"Dejan Goal!"

"Goal! Goal! Goal!!!"

"Dejan's brace at Wembley Stadium has essentially secured the title for Manchester United."

"With just over 70 minutes left, we will witness the birth of England's first sextuple winner, equaling Sampdoria's miracle, but Manchester United still has the possibility of becoming a seven-time champion!"

England has an extra domestic cup competition compared to other leagues.

"Dejan was outstanding today, giving the goalkeeper absolutely no chance to make a save. Every time David James looked like he was just a little short, he actually had no chance at all."

"Yes, he cleanly and neatly put the ball into the goal. Dejan at full power is truly terrifying. His shooting ability is far more exaggerated than that of the average striker."

Alan Shearer nodded in front of the television.

Premier League players don't have any matches today; they'll mostly be watching the FA Cup final.

Lu Deyang's scoring ability is terrifying.

Shearer believed that Lu Deyan could score no matter what because of his exceptional ball control.

That is, ball feel.

If it were him, he would definitely take a powerful shot, and regardless of whether it goes in or not, the ball speed wouldn't be slow.

Lu Deyang was clearly putting in effort, but it turned out to be a chip shot.

Such a hasty long-range shot requires a high degree of control over the force exerted.

This kind of shot is much more difficult than a lob shot on the goal line.

Of course, if someone can beat Ludwig, Liverpool's defense becomes less effective.

If the opponent shoots before even reaching the penalty area, what difference does it make whether there are three center-backs or two in front of you?

Ferguson reminded his players from the sidelines not to be careless.

The Northwest Derby combined with the FA Cup final makes for a truly significant event.

Even if he doesn't swear, the players who didn't perform well today will still suffer.

Don't think that winning the game is all it takes; people will be mocking you even when you're walking down the street.

If you play poorly, even if you drink an extra energy drink, the fans will still be concerned about you.

The score was 2-0, and Ferguson was not careless.

Even when Liverpool looks weak, their performance in the derby isn't too bad.

In such an important match, you might not lose by mistake, but you're sure to win badly.

If even with Lu Deyang on the team, the game is still going poorly, then Manchester United players might as well retire sooner.

Fowler couldn't help but rub his teeth together.

I'm not convinced, that's all.

But he could truly appreciate Lu Deyang's strength.

It's hard to accept that someone has no weaknesses in physical fitness.

After all, Lu Deyang isn't like Gullit, the type who looks very strong.

Of course, Gullit's speed and explosiveness are also hard to accept, given his size and speed.

These people are all perverts.

Besides physical attributes, ball control and technique are also important factors.

I heard that Lu Deyang was almost an adult when he started playing as a substitute in a third-tier team and had not yet received professional training.

This made Fowler even more upset.

After all, it's important to lay a solid foundation when you're young.

Sometimes he would think how terrifying Lu Deyang would be if he had received professional training from a young age.

Right now, he and his friend McManaman combined are no match for Lu Deyang.

After the restart, the ball was passed back again, and Fowler felt a bit nauseous.

Psychological gagging.

The feeling of being outstanding but unable to win made him feel terrible; he was uncomfortable both physically and mentally.

Fowler made a quick forward run after passing the ball.

I'm looking for an opportunity to score a goal by taking advantage of a slip-up.

McManaman remains Liverpool's core player; with the two defensive midfielders not receiving the ball, he is forced to shoulder more responsibility. After Keane pressed forward, he passed the ball to Barnes.

Barnes immediately passed the ball to McManaman.

This time, he chose to spike the ball repeatedly and then suddenly start, shaking off Keane. However, he hadn't run far when Beckham came up to meet him.

Knowing he couldn't stop him, Beckham turned and pinned McManaman to the sideline.

Many players don't know how to dribble past opponents sideways.

However, this does not include McManaman.

The Liverpool prodigy used his right foot to pull the ball away, and taking advantage of Beckham's moment when he spread his legs, he quickly passed the ball to Beckham.

Beckham was shoved through the small door.

Fowler, who had dropped back, received the ball and passed it to McManaman, who had run back to the center. McManaman immediately passed it to Jones, who had made a forward run.

Too much time has been wasted on one side; they must be moved as soon as possible.

Jones received the ball on the weak side and immediately lobbed it into the penalty area.

Collimore started his run towards the penalty area, attempting to get a header.

But he was no match for the experienced Pallister, and the Manchester United defender easily headed the ball out of the penalty area.

Redondo received the ball, turned around, and kicked it.

His long pass seemed to be precision-guided, accurately finding Lu Deyang on the left flank of the attacking third.

"Together!"

"McCartier said."

He couldn't defend himself.

Phil Bab nodded.

The two of them stood together on the flank of the penalty area, carefully on guard.

Seeing this, Erwin rushed forward, intending to receive the pass near the baseline.

click -

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Erwin attracted some of the opponent's attention, and Lu Deyang immediately activated his attack.

With a flick of his right foot, McAteer was still standing with his legs spread apart.

Lu Deyang wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by.

Snapped--

Push your right foot forward.

McAteer knew there was danger, but human reaction time is limited.

He only tried to close his legs after the ball passed through them.

Lu Deyang had already started his run and rushed past him into the penalty area.

Babu turned around to grab the ball back, but he was a little too slow.

With just a step away, Lu Deyang received the ball and immediately swung his foot to shoot.

boom--

Phil Bab was a step too late and could only watch the ball rise in front of him, arcing through the air. He turned his head and saw James diving to his side, but he couldn't stop the ball, which nestled into the goal just past the right post.

"Deyang!"

"Deyang!"

"Deyang!"

A huge cheer erupted at Wembley Stadium.

It was basically locked a moment ago, but now it's completely locked.

It's only a matter of time before Manchester United achieve their sextuple this season.

"hat trick!"

"hat trick!"

"What a goal!"

“GoalGoalGoalGoalGoal!”

"Dejan scored a hat-trick in the 17th minute, helping Manchester United secure the FA Cup title this season. What's even more interesting is that Dejan scored a beautiful goal on both the left and right sides of the penalty area today."

"Both goals were scored with his right foot, but no one should question Dejan's ability with his left foot. For a goalkeeper, a player as agile as Dejan is doubly terrifying. The inside and outside of his feet, combined with other variations in power and angle, make every shot by Dejan a possibility in countless ways."

"Yes, when making saves against other players, goalkeepers can anticipate their shots based on their shooting characteristics. But against Dejan, the video footage doesn't offer any help at all; Dejan's shots are unpredictable!"

Manchester United fans in the stands were already singing "Come on Your Reeds".

If we were to pinpoint Lee Sharp's greatest contribution...

That definitely wasn't on the field.

Instead, he and McClair took the lead in getting the whole team to record this new team song.

This was the first time in football history that a team song was sung by the players themselves, and it even achieved good results on the music charts.

"A substitution, Alex?"

Kidd walked over to Ferguson and asked.

"Wait a minute."

Ferguson shook his head and said.

According to his usual practice, this is indeed the time for Giggs to get up and warm up.

But Kidd always guessed his moves, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

If the assistant coach can predict everything, what's the point of having a head coach?

So Ferguson decided to wait a little longer.

Standing in this position is like being an emperor in ancient China.

Every emperor likes a considerate official.

However, no official dared to openly admit to guessing the emperor's intentions, as being discovered by the emperor would bring them great misfortune.

Best, standing in the stands, put down his wine jug and said, "If I had known, I should have bet on us to win. I should have bet more; at least I could have made some money on drinks."

"Can't you read a newspaper?"

Charlton said dismissively, "African fans have been doing this for a while now, and they've won quite a bit. William Hill has even adjusted Manchester United's odds. Do you really want to gamble ten thousand pounds for a few dozen dollars?"

"Damn profiteer, this is the money-making scheme I finally came up with."

George Best curled his lip and cursed.

He has enough money to spend.

After all, he won't live that long.

But with more money, you can have a more carefree time.

For example, he thought about and even tried filling a bathtub with expensive wine when he was at the height of his fame, but gave up when he found that he would need too much wine.

The bathtub doesn't look very big, but pouring a few bottles of wine into it makes no difference compared to not pouring any at all.

To fill it up, you'd need at least several hundred bottles of bar.

Spending tens of thousands of pounds on a bath seems a bit extravagant even to someone like him.

Those Miss World contestants aren't worthy of bathing in such expensive water with him.

Bobby Charlton couldn't help but shake his head.

It's not a good feeling to watch your old teammates, younger than you, gradually deteriorate in health.

Best himself didn't realize it, but every now and then he could see that Best's complexion and health were deteriorating. It's impossible for a person's liver to have problems without showing signs.

The team is celebrating at the hotel tonight, and he absolutely refuses to let Best drink excessively.

In contrast, Roy Evans was worried that the team would lose too badly.

Regardless of Liverpool's position, the Kop all hope the team can win the Northwest Derby.

With such expectations, losing too badly means you can just wait to be dismissed from get out of class.

These days, coaches' salaries aren't high, so breach of contract penalties aren't even a problem.

However, it won't be easy to manage a top club again after leaving Liverpool.

English coaches generally don't go abroad, and there are also some who are unemployed at home, so it can be said that there are more coaches than positions.

Despite Liverpool's mediocre performance in recent years, the coaching position is still highly sought after.

He wanted to switch to a 5-4-1 formation, but he needed to wait until halftime.

The thought of replacing him made him envious of Ferguson.

These days, only that Scottish colleague would dare to make substitutions so casually in the first half.

Ace can just kick around and call it a day; if it were him, he wouldn't mind treating Lu Deyang like a father.

Don't those South American players like to take girls to hotels?

He can go to the away game to find Lu Deyang.

Oh shit.

If he had such a trump card, he wouldn't be so worried.

Liverpool were still a bit bewildered when the game restarted.

After all, they conceded three goals in a row.

Even though they are quite capable, their morale is somewhat low at this point.

Terry Venables in the stands couldn't help but shake his head.

During his playing career, he played for three London clubs: Chelsea, Crystal Palace, and Tottenham Hotspur. He also managed Barcelona, ​​ending their 11-year trophy drought, and led Tottenham Hotspur to an FA Cup victory, which is why he was able to take charge of the England national team.

However, Liverpool's performance today still disappointed him, considering that Liverpool's squad has a lot of English players.

Looking at it this way, Liverpool probably doesn't have as many players as Manchester United in the squad.

He originally intended for McManaman to play on the right wing, but Beckham's emergence allowed Liverpool's talent to play on the left wing.

Liverpool's defensive players are not very competitive, and Southgate is even ranked higher than them.

The Neville brothers have a good chance, especially Neville Jr., whose versatility is very useful in crucial moments.

Fowler will definitely be selected.

There's only one young striker of any caliber in England.

But he wants to see how Fowler performs today.

You haven't shown any performance, yet you expect to get a chance from Shearer?

England didn't lack strikers during this period; there were a lot of excellent strikers like Sheringham and Ferdinand.

The middle position between the front and back lines is what gives him the biggest headache.

McManaman got the ball again, and Venables instinctively leaned forward, anticipating his performance.

Keane had been beaten a few times and knew not to make the first move.

While the two were facing off in the middle, Beckham sneaked over from the flank.

However, McManaman clearly noticed this situation, and when Beckham passed by, he flicked the ball to the left and started his run past Beckham.

Beckham happened to block Keane.

This brilliant performance prompted Venables to cheer.

Gascoigne might be finished, but thankfully we have McManaman.

McManaman dribbled the ball quickly down the wing, and Gary Neville rushed up and slid in with a tackle.

His foot kicked McManaman's left foot.

McManaman lost his balance, but he still managed to pass the ball in the instant he fell.

Barnes, making a forward run, prepared to unleash a long-range shot, but was blocked by Pallister at close range.

This tough, agile man changed his shot into a dunk and passed the ball across to Redknapp.

Xiao Lei's long-range shot after a flick with his right foot lacked power, and Schmeichel easily caught the ball by bending over.

"Counterattack! Run!"

Schmeichel shouted and threw the ball out with all his might.

Skiles acted decisively, taking down Cantona, who was holding the ball, with a tackle.

With his teammates all out in the backfield, if Manchester United are allowed to attack, they'll concede another goal.

beep—

Gallagher didn't let Skiles off the hook either, and showed him a yellow card.

However, the tactical objective of this foul has been achieved, wasting half a minute, as Liverpool players have already returned to their defensive positions.

After the restart, Redondo orchestrated the attack in front of Liverpool's penalty area.

Leading by three goals gave Manchester United players confidence. Even with the opponent's solid defense, Redondo still tried to dribble a few steps to the right before lobbing the ball into the penalty area.

Mark Wright's header didn't go far; the ball remained on the edge of the penalty area.

The competition between the two teams was very intense.

Phil Bab blocked the ball out of the penalty area with his foot. Keane tried to lob the ball to a teammate, but it was headed away by the opponent. The ball went directly to the left wing, where McAteer and Irwin were carefully waiting for the ball to fall in the penalty area when the referee's whistle blew.

beep—

Lu Deyang and Skiles both fell to the ground.

If Kidd hadn't grabbed Ferguson in time, Ferguson would have already rushed onto the pitch.

"What's going on? Dejan seems to be injured, but he's covering his mouth."

"The two players were in the middle, but the ball didn't reach the middle, so we don't know what happened. We can only watch the replay to see what happened."

McClell crouched down beside Lu Deyang and asked with some concern, "Deyang, what's wrong? Can you still hold on?"

Lu Deyang pointed to his teeth.

Oh shit.

He genuinely didn't intend to bite anyone.

But Skiles forced himself to come forward.

When Keane passed the ball earlier, Lu Deyang wanted him to pass it to the other side instead of this side, so he opened his mouth and shouted.

After all, the defense on the other side is weak, so why keep attacking this side?
Before he could finish his sentence, Skiles stumbled backward and lost his footing, his outstretched hand, used for balance, shoved directly into Lu Deyang's mouth.

This is the first time Lu Deyang has suffered such a loss in all his years of playing.

Fortunately, the tooth wasn't loose, otherwise I would have had to see a dentist.

Seeing that Lu Deyang hadn't gotten up for a while, Ferguson simply pushed Giggs to the sidelines and had the fourth official make a substitution.

He and Kidd also heard what had happened.

However, whether there are any problems or not, let's replace Lu Deyang first.

On the sidelines, seeing Roy Evans standing nearby, Ferguson couldn't help but yell, "What's wrong with your players? They're sticking their arms into other people's mouths while playing football! If Dejan gets injured, I won't let you off the hook!"

Evans: ...
