Soccer: Opening check-in with a Tiger-style shot

Beilun Upset, Tottenham Hotspur’s training base.

The England Youth FA Cup has reached the second round.

In the first round before this, the Arsenal U18 youth team defeated the Portsmouth youth team 2:0.

Lin Xuan hadn’t joined the team at that time.

So this is his first FA Youth Cup game.

It turned out that the opponent in the second round was Arsenal’s rival, Tottenham Hotspur!

These two teams have been old enemies who have been entangled for many years, and they are absolutely jealous when they meet each other.

The popularity of the Beilun Upsetting Derby is no less than that of other famous derbies.

first teamThe hatred can easily affect the youth team.

This youth version of the Beilun Upsetting Derby should be full of gunpowder.

Even if the two teams are not enemies, they still face an elimination in the FA Youth Cup.

There is no room for loss in this game for either side.

Therefore, this match will be more intense than other youth teams’ matches!

Unfortunately, Arsenal were drawn to an away game, and they might have a hard time playing at Tottenham’s training base.

During the warm-up period before the game, Lin Xuan and Szczesny practiced shooting.

Lin Xuan kicked the ball around and scored easily. Szczesny was half a beat behind in reacting.

He couldn’t help but looked up at the auditorium.

Unexpectedly, for a youth team match, the spectator stands at the training base were packed!

And looking around, it was pure white, all of them were Tottenham fans and family members.

Good guy, this is just a competition for the youth team, so it’s so big?

Szczesny rarely saw this kind of scene, and his legs couldn’t help trembling slightly.

On the other hand, Lin Xuan kicked a few goals, and his level remained the same as before.

“Hey, Lin, are you nervous?”

Szczesny didn’t believe that he wasn’t nervous. Didn’t he claim to have walked out of the campus?

This is the first time anyone has experienced a match of this level, and anyone would tremble.

Lin Xuan ignored him, and then scored several high-quality shots.

“Do you think I’m nervous?” Then he looked at Szczesny expressionlessly.

Seeing this, the Polish goalkeeper couldn’t help sighing secretly at Lin Xuan’s psychological quality.

“It is estimated that he will not be afraid of facing the real Beilun Upset Derby.”

…

After the warm-up is over, players from both sides enter the locker room, and the coach will make the final arrangements for the game.

In fact, in the youth league, coaches are rarely so cautious.

Anyway, the purpose of the youth team’s competition is not for results, but for training and to test players.

But for a cup like the FA Youth Cup, there is still hope to win the championship if you work hard.

It’s not too much to pay more attention to winning a championship, right?

So it was rare for coach Brady to make tactical arrangements with a serious face.

“Everyone has no problem with the basic tactics. You have won 5 consecutive victories. But you must pay attention to this opponent.”

“In this game, they should shrink the defense and compress the passing space. Then disrupt our offensive rhythm with fierce robbery.”

“So we can’t just put the ball straight into the gap like before. We need to slow down and pass it patiently.”

“Lin.” Brady mentioned Lin Xuan alone, “Your task will be very heavy.”

“The opponent should send one person to defend you, and other defensive players will double-team you all the time. You may fall into a state of more than one dozen.”

“So, if you have a chance, you can try to shoot as far as possible to threaten the goal.”

Brady gave Lin Xuan the unlimited right to fire, and everyone is no stranger to it.

The power of Lin Xuan’s fierce tiger shot is obvious to all!

“Then the rest of you have to run more, involve the defensive players, and open up space for Lin Xuan.”

As long as there is a gap, with Lin Xuan’s ability, he will quickly tear it open and create a threat!

…

On the other side, the Tottenham youth team locker room.

The head coach of the youth team, Chris Ramsey, had a serious face, exhorting and exhorting the players.

The word he mentioned the most is “Lin”.

“You all know their Asian midfielder, Lin, right? Do you need me to say more?”

“In this game, as long as he is frozen, the rest of Arsenal will be nothing to worry about!”

“Jack! He’s handed over to you. Even if he goes to the toilet, you have to go with him!”

Sixteen-year-old Jack Livermore nodded emphatically.

He is the main defensive midfielder in the Tottenham youth team and one of the core members of the team.

Not only is he excellent in defense, but also has excellent positioning awareness and strong physical confrontation ability.

At the same time, he also has the ability to play the ball, and his talent is outstanding!

He could have acted as a pivot in the midfield, but the head coach did not hesitate to lose his most powerful player in order to freeze Lin Xuan!

Fortunately, midfielder Ryan Mason is good at organizing offenses, so he can launch a counterattack.

“Jonathan, Andros, when you counterattack, the two of you must jump in quickly!”

The two forwards, Jonathan Obika and Andros Townsend, are good attackers and can effectively threaten Arsenal behind them.

“For this game, let that Asian be silent, and let him see the enthusiasm of the Beilun Derby!”

…

Players from the two teams lined up on both sides of the field, waiting for the referee to blow the whistle to start the game.

At this time, in addition to Tottenham fans, other spectators also entered the stadium to watch the game one after another.

Two sneaky uncles entered the auditorium one after the other, and finally found an empty seat to watch the game.

The two of them were in different positions, but their eyes were aimed at the same person.

Lin Xuan who is about to kick off!

Chelsea scout: “That’s right, I can see your performance in this tough battle before deciding whether to offer a contract.”

Manchester United scout: “Come on, show your best form! I hope you can be worthy of Ferguson’s favor.”.
