Volume 1: Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention Chapter 259 Reserve Team Legend Season 2 (Guaranteed First Update)

Ferguson's words successfully aroused the morale of the Manchester United team, allowing them to not be discouraged even after conceding the ball, but instead became more courageous as they fought.

The Liverpool players originally thought that after they equalized the score, Manchester United's morale would be hit, so that they would have an easier time in the next game.

Unexpectedly, just when they were planning to go all out to pursue the victory and completely win over Manchester United, their own goal was almost lost!

Manchester United counterattacked again. This time Rooney drove the ball upfield alone, used his own technical breakthrough, passed Skrtel, and faced goalkeeper Reina directly.

At that time, all Liverpool fans were very excited. This is a single-handed ball!

With Rooney's ability, can he easily let go of such an opportunity?

Rooney shoots!

Goalkeeper Reina did not judge the opponent's direction, he pounced on the completely opposite place.

But the football did not fly into the goal, but rolled off the bottom line while grazing the goalpost...

"Ouch!" The commentator on Manchester United TV was so disappointed. When he saw Rooney deceiving goalkeeper Reina and shooting the football towards the goal, he couldn't wait to raise his arms and cheer. As a result, the next second he slapped his head hard with both hands, and then he held his head with both hands and was upset.

"Rooney - he missed an opportunity to be a hero!"

"The people of Liverpool must be breaking out in a cold sweat! It was so thrilling just now! They didn't expect that Manchester United could still organize such a counterattack after conceding the goal just now!"

The Liverpool team was indeed frightened, especially Martin O'Neill. He immediately walked down from the coaching bench and came to the sidelines, waving his arms and asking the team to return to defense.

For him, he can get a point away from home. That's okay, at least we can go undefeated for the season. This is a good result.

This is Old Trafford after all. It is the home ground of Manchester United. The enemy they face here is the powerful Ferguson.

He couldn't be careless.

Liverpool were naturally unwilling to retract their defense like this, but Manchester United quickly showed them what a storm is.

Wave after wave of violent attacks hit Liverpool's defense.

If they don't shrink their defense, no one knows when their goal will be lost.

This is the time to continue the attack. Or on defense?

The satisfaction of Liverpool's players prevailed - it was good to get a point at Manchester United's home court and force them to be so embarrassed. After all, it is also a team like Manchester United. And what if you fight too hard and get injured during the game?

Just like that, Liverpool recycled.

Although Manchester United's offensive is very fierce. But Liverpool is good at defending.

So both sides fought evenly.

The final score was 3:3. No one can do anything to win over anyone.

In the end, Manchester United still failed to give their boss Alex Ferguson a parting gift.

However, they were double beaten by Liverpool last season, especially after losing to Liverpool at home for two consecutive seasons. Being able to stop the decline with a draw is already a very good result.

As Ferguson said to Rooney during the game, if you can't win this game, don't lose it. They did it.

Ferguson also talked about the result after the game: "I know they want to give me a victory. I am very grateful to them. But this result is also quite good. Liverpool is indeed very strong, but Manchester United will not give up easily. Just Just like we did more than 20 years ago, we knocked Liverpool off the throne once, and we can knock it down a second time!"

As always, he showed his strong and unyielding character.

He will never bow his head in front of Liverpool, even if he has been beaten by Liverpool and is afraid of being stuck in the mud, he will definitely hold his head high and stare at the Liverpool man with dissatisfied eyes, and he is the only one.

Martin O'Neill expressed respect for Ferguson. Now that the game is over, there is no need to continue the hostility. Ferguson was hostile to Liverpool because he had been coaching this team for thirty years and considered himself a Manchester United man from the bottom of his heart. The hatred for Liverpool was naturally integrated into his blood and marrow.

He is different. He has no bloodline from Liverpool at all. He is a monk halfway. He understands the hatred between Liverpool and Manchester United very well, but he does not empathize with it because he is not a pure kop after all.

For him, the definition of an enemy is very simple, that is, the group of people he faces during the game who wear colors different from his own.

You are the enemy during the game, but not after the game is over.

Therefore, he did not mind sending his blessings to Ferguson, and he could also gain a good reputation as a "personable" player.

"He is a great coach. I think everyone in the Premier League will feel lonely without him. I am sorry that I was not able to win this game, but I am very satisfied with the performance of the players. You must know that this is Old Trafford, the home ground of Manchester United, is a good result to get a point. At least it has been more than two seasons, and we have not lost to them in a game..."

After the game, the media devoted a lot of space to reporting on the game.

The main focus is on Ferguson.

Although Chen Yingxiong scored twice in the game, he enjoyed the treatment of a "supporting role" for the first time. There wasn't much coverage about him after the game, except for the pro-Liverpool media, other media were discussing Ferguson.

After all, this is the last time he will lead the team against Liverpool in his home stadium in the league.

Everyone began to reminisce about Ferguson's green years when he first arrived at Manchester United.

Recall his famous saying, "The most accomplished thing in my life is to pull damn Liverpool off the throne."

Recalling the thirty-year feud between him as Manchester United manager and Liverpool.

In the end, my time at Old Trafford was fixed at this moment.

The next national derby in England will move to Anfield, which is Liverpool's territory.

Occasionally playing a supporting role is a good experience for Chen Yingxiong.

He is no longer surrounded by airtight reporters, and countless microphones are poking into his mouth. He doesn't have to fight with the media.

Of course, for Chen Yingxiong, these days are just a break, and he has to fight non-stop throughout his life.

Then win.

While everyone was focusing on Ferguson, Chen Yingxiong put the focus on the reserve team.

An exciting day for the reserve team players has arrived.

The third round of the League Cup is about to begin. Liverpool were drawn by Reading. They still played at home.

This is a big day that makes the reserve team players unable to sleep well these days.

It's their festival.

They have the opportunity to follow their elder brother Chen Yingxiong to compete in the League Cup. After a new year, there is still the FA Cup to play.

These two events belong entirely to them. Except for Chen Yingxiong, no other first-team players will come to compete with them for the credit.

Through their outstanding performance in the League Cup and FA Cup, they can arouse the idea of ​​​​the first team coach and gain his approval, thereby being promoted to the first team and able to fight side by side with Chen Yingxiong openly.

Perhaps, even if they cannot get the approval of the first-team head coach, they can win the favor of professional scouts through their outstanding performance in the League Cup and FA Cup, and then transfer to other teams. If you are lucky, you can go to a Premier League team. If you are unlucky, you can go to the English Championship or League One. But at least it is a professional team and you can play first-team games with dignity. Whether it is the English Championship or English League One, they are official leagues, not reserve leagues.

The stage there is wider and it's much better than staying in the reserve team.

Look at the players from last year's reserve team. They are almost all gone this summer. This is all "reward" for their good performance in the FA Cup.

This year's new reserve team players also want to be like their predecessors and embark on this broad road that can change their own destiny.

Even if you go to another team, it is still a way to realize your dream.

It may be a little twisty, but there is always a chance to reach the end. Much better than staying in the reserves and struggling.

So many people regard these two cup competitions as opportunities, or even the only opportunities, to change their own destiny.

Chen Yingxiong may not know that the decision he made just to compete with Messi for honors and goals would later become a tradition of the Liverpool football team.

That's a reserve legend!

On the last day of training before the League Cup, Chen Yingxiong came to the reserve team and trained with everyone, mainly practicing set pieces.

The reserve team players were very happy to see Chen Yingxiong appearing in front of them.

Chen Yingxiong raised his hand to greet them: "Hi, guys, we meet again. Is everyone ready for tomorrow's game?"

He was answered loudly and energetically by everyone: "We are impatient!!"

Chen Yingxiong smiled: "It's great to see everyone so energetic! Do you still remember what I said to everyone before?"

Unknowingly, his old aura came out again.

"This is an opportunity for you, but it is also a challenge. So you have to try to keep up with my pace. I am running forward in large strides. I will not stop and wait for anyone in the middle. You have to grit your teeth and keep up. , if you can’t persist, you will have no choice but to fall behind. Two cups in one season, the process is very long. I hope all of you can run to the finish line with me!”

"We can do it, hero! We won't fall behind!"

"We also have very serious training!"

Everyone was responding to Chen Yingxiong excitedly.

Facing these excited teammates, Chen Yingxiong smiled.

After everyone had finished shouting, he raised his hand and said, "Okay, guys, now, the second season of Reserve Legends is about to start!"
