Red Rebels

41 first half

Arsenal's players are standing on the aisle, with a boiling fan stand above them, listening to the tsunami-like cheers from the stands in their ears, and the timid ones will have soft legs.

Captain Adams and Captain Steve Bruce of New Manchester United are at the front of the queue. Both have played in the Premier League for many years, so they are no strangers to each other, but familiarity does not mean friendship. On the contrary, the grudge between the Red Devils and the Gunners, It was thoroughly reflected in the two of them.

Jonberg after Adams has just joined Arsenal this season and has not had many opportunities to play. This game is just a substitute for Palol as the starter, and the opponent's strength is not strong, should be able to get a chance to perform, so Jonberg is in the mood Yes, looking at New Manchester United next to him, standing next to him is Evra.

Evra had a stern expression. When he saw Yongbergy nodded politely at him, he didn't feel the charm of the handsome Swedish man, gave him a cold glance, and then looked forward.

This very impolite behavior makes Yongbergy feel embarrassed and angry, isn't it just a tenth league amateur player? Put such a big spectrum!

When the head referee and assistant referee took the lead out of the player's passage, there was a burst of warmer applause and cheers at the scene, but there were also booes, which varied, and it was not clear who they were directed against.

A total of nearly 3,000 fans from Manchester City came to Manchester United in support of New Manchester United in this game. Although they believe that the victory of this game is not great and the journey is long, they still come.

"The players are here. Audience friends, we are now seeing one of the third round of the FA Cup of England in the 98-99 season. Arsenal vs. New Manchester United. This is a very special match. And it's the first time New Man United has appeared in front of a TV since its establishment. Red Rebel fans believe that this will be a game that has entered the history! "

Sky TV also paid close attention to this game, and specially arranged the famous Andy Gray for a live comment.

"Let's take a look at Arsenal's starting lineup first. Due to the rest of the main goalkeeper Himan, Manninger will play the starting line, and third goalkeeper Luzyk will serve as a substitute. , The latter's main position this season is occupied by Keon, and his chances of appearance have been greatly reduced. "

"The two left and right fullbacks are Dixon and Winterbourne. These are the two positions without suspense. The midfield is still a double-back tactic. Petit and Vieira play the starting lineup. We can see the grid. Rimandi and Remy Gade are both sitting on the bench. The other two wingers are the Dutch star Ovemars and the Swedish teenager Jonberg. "

"The forward partners are Bergkamp and Anelka, and Boa Wright is also sitting on the bench!"

"From this lineup, we can see that Wenger also attaches great importance to this game and does not use substitute players on a large scale as previously predicted by the outside world, but I believe this will not have any effect on the Red Rebels. Impact, after all, even if Arsenal play with a pure substitute, they are extremely powerful opponents! "

Having said that, Andy Gray made a special joke.

"According to the data we have collected before, Bergkamp's one-year salary can buy all New Manchester United players, including former Manchester United captain Steve Bruce, and now many people are wondering what this is. The team? Can they attract Steve Bruce to teach? There is still a short time before the start of the game. We can look back at the establishment of the Red Rebels and its past and present life for more than half a year! "

After that, the TV broadcast screen suddenly shifted to a short film. The reasons for the establishment of New Manchester United in the short film, how Xiao Yu originally set up the club, and how Manchester United fans support New Manchester United, etc., are very detailed. Over and over again, it is a passing off for New Manchester United's outstanding results in the Northwest Division B this season.

Perhaps from the perspective of the TV station, even if the Northwest Division B's performance is even better, for the audience in front of the TV, it is not as attractive as the source of this Red Rebel.

After the short film was finished, the referee had put the whistle to his mouth on the court, and the whistle of the start of the game blew instantly.

From the first minute of the game, New Manchester United's players have put in a desperate fight, including the forwards have retreated to the midfield.

In more than two years since coming to Arsenal, Vieira has become the core of this team's midfield. He is like a heavy tank on the court with excellent physical conditions. Compared to him, Smith ’s He is as thin as a piece of paper and flew away in a single swipe.

After Vieira intercepted the ball, he diagonally passed to Ovimas on the left. The Dutch were fast and tried to make a fake move in front of Kevin Evan. After shaking the opponent, he went directly to the bottom. A low ball came out.

Steve Bruce grabs the ball and clears it out before Ice Prince Bergkamp.

"Kevin, don't rush too far ahead, pay attention to the position!" Bruce reminded him behind him.

Kevin Evan nodded and promised to him, but the whole man stared nervously at Ovemars. The Dutchman was too fast. As long as he was relaxed a little, he was patted after being shaken. Can't catch up.

"Don't worry, Kevin, and us!" The winger Darren Lyons also retreated and helped Kevin Evan defend.

Winterbourne tossed the ball to midfielder Petit, the French international big foot was transferred to right-wing Jonberg.

Evra stepped forward immediately. Ljungberg wanted to use the speed to eat Evra. How can I know he just wanted to speed up, Evra has already used a fierce tackle to lead him to the sideline. Already.

Regarding speed, Evraco doesn't lose to Ljungberg at all!

It was a wonderful defense!

"At the beginning of the game, the scene seemed very hot. Arsenal teenager Yonberge got up from the ground and stared angrily at the opponent's left guard. His mouth seemed to be muttering something to the referee, he should be complaining. The opponent's action was too big, but the referee just motioned for the game to continue! "

The fans at the scene were suddenly dissatisfied by the referee's penalty!

"Good job, Patrice!" Xiao Yu stood in front of the coach seat, encouragingly towards Evra who walked in.

When playing in Bruce on weekdays, it was Walsh or Cassell sitting here, but today's game is different, Xiao Yu wants to stand with the players, so he is sitting here.

The game entered the fast-paced offense and defense almost from the beginning. Now Arsenal has no later beautiful control flow kick. Wenger's transformation of Arsenal has just begun, so the scene suddenly became very hot.

Although it is said that the overall strength of New Manchester United is to lose to Arsenal a lot, but ten minutes before the opening, it is based on its tenacious fighting spirit and fierce fight against Arsenal, but the situation is still under the firm control of Arsenal hand.

When the game reached the 18th minute, Arsenal backcourt Adams made a long pass and directly found Anelka, who stopped the ball and swung the ball, and Bergkamp responded with a straight pass.

The slow turn of Garrett Turner was infinitely amplified at this moment. He even had too much time to pull Anelka, and could only watch the 19-year-old French genius send the ball to the new Manchester United's goal.

1: 0, Arsenal welcomed their first goal!

"TMD!" Xiao Yu shook his fist, and he even wished to tear down the shed on Highbury's coaching bench.

"It doesn't matter, guys!" Bruce called all the players over the pitch. "We did a great job, remember, keep playing as we planned, you know?"

The players promised and smashed.

The game continues!

After Arsenal led the ball, the situation on the field was even more one-sided. New Manchester United was almost suppressed in the first half and could only make a clearance and steals.

In order to cope with Arsenal's indiscriminate bombing, Bruce even pulled forward Jonathan Methen to the backcourt, and the defense of the four midfielders also retracted to the front of the penalty area. Cruise around the midfield, making New Manchester United's on-court formation suddenly turned into 910.

Seeing New Manchester United's posture, Arsenal also began to become very patient, especially the head coach Wenger, sitting on the coach seat, a pair of games in the shape of holding a winning ticket.

However, it turns out that Arsenal does have the strength to win the game.

In the 32nd minute of the first half, Bergkamp held the ball on his back. In almost impossible circumstances, he picked the ball over himself and Bruce, picked the pass, Anelka stopped the ball in the chest, turned and shot In one go, very clean.

2: 0, this is almost a goal that can be sentenced to the death penalty of New Manchester United early, because if you want to pull back the score in Highbury, I am afraid that even Manchester United can not do it, let alone New Manchester United.

The fans in the stands cheered again, shouting the names of Bergkamp and Anelka.

The eccentric French genius was transferred to Real Madrid by virtue of his performance at Arsenal this season, but after that he was completely lost.

Of course, Xiao Yu now does not even remember what will happen to Anelka in the end, he just sees clearly that Anelka celebrates the goal under his eyelids, it seems like he is demonstrating like him This made him feel very angry.

It may be that after the two goals lead, Arsenal began to stay in force. After all, they have a key battle to play in the related championship at the weekend, so they began to consciously slow down the pace of the game.

In this way, the score of 2: 0 was maintained until the end of the first half.

During the intermission, when Bruce and Kassel returned to the locker room with the players, Xiao Yu was still sitting on the coach seat, staring at the stadium, suddenly he understood Bruce's frustrated frustration. He really, really hates the weakness of his team, he longs to be strong!

But sometimes, the strong must be sharpened after the pain of constant failure! 2k novel reading network
