Chapter 262: Use the fire in your heart to illuminate your dreams (Second update guaranteed)

Birmingham City believe Liverpool's reserves have nothing to fear, especially at their home ground. (Church)

They have analyzed and studied Liverpool's first League Cup game, and Reading was able to force Liverpool into a panic. In the end, if Chen Yingxiong hadn't shown his prowess, they would have only played one League Cup game and had to go home.

Although the Liverpool reserve team last season was very strong, they are already two teams after all. The media's analysis was correct. The success of Liverpool's reserve team last season was due to the right time, right place, right people and the right people. They all took advantage of it. But how could such a good thing happen to Liverpool every year?

This time it was their turn to be unlucky.

Not only people in Birmingham think so, but many spectators and fans also think so. Thanks to the media's hype, everyone now knows the problems facing Liverpool's reserve team. It is unrealistic for Chen Yingxiong to want to go to Wembley with the reserve team.

It's a good idea, but we still have to see if anyone can implement it.

After the first game against Reading, everyone knows what the situation of this Liverpool reserve team is now.

This team is definitely different from last season.

It may be difficult to expect them to win the championship.

Even Liverpool fans are worried about the Liverpool reserves.

※※※

But from the beginning of the game, everyone found that the situation was different from what they thought.

Compared with the performance of this Liverpool reserve team in the previous game, they are completely different teams!

They were aggressive on offense, tenacious on defense, and showed no signs of being helpless.

However, Birmingham was completely unable to penetrate their defense. Apart from long-range shots, there was no other way to reach the goal.

In fact, everyone has entered into a misunderstanding - they think that Reading, which has been relegated for many years, can cause so much trouble to Liverpool, let alone Birmingham, which has just been relegated.

But no one has studied the real reason why Reading can make Liverpool so embarrassed.

Not because of how strong they are, but because...their tactical play just restrained Liverpool. (Church)

But Birmingham is different. Birmingham's tactics are different from Reading's. They are still technically proficient. As for Liverpool, what they are least afraid of is... their technical skills.

So Birmingham looks stronger than Reading, but its actual performance on the court is not as good as Reading.

They laid siege to Liverpool for nearly twenty minutes without scoring.

It was the Liverpool reserve team that scored first.

When the goal happened, everyone was shocked.

What surprised them was not that the Liverpool reserve team was ahead of Birmingham, but that the person who scored the goal was not Chen Yingxiong! It was not Chen Yingxiong who opened the scoring for the team!

The ball was assisted by Chen Yingxiong, and then young winger Carlton Cole, who was transferred from the under-18 youth team to the reserve team this year, shot the football into the goal.

At that time, Chen Yingxiong attracted all the defensive attention of Birmingham, and other Liverpool reserve players were almost walking in a vacuum.

Chen Yingxiong sent the football over. With the ability of this youth team player, it did not take much effort to score the football into the goal.

When Cole saw the football flying towards him, he also heard Chen Yingxiong shouting: "Shoot!"

Then he reflexively raised his leg and created an arc, allowing the football to bypass the Birmingham goalkeeper's fingers and go straight into the far corner.

Liverpool's first goal came just like that.

After scoring the goal, Cole was still in a daze, but Chen Yingxiong had already led a group of teammates to pounce on him.

"Well done, Carlton!" Chen Yingxiong was the first to hug him.

When Cole's thin body was slammed into by Chen Yingxiong, he realized that he had scored a goal in the game, and the one who assisted him was... Yingxiong, and he did not let him down!

His eyes instantly turned red.

In order to prevent tears from falling, he opened his mouth and shouted: "I fucking scored!!"

More teammates rushed up and slapped him: "You are so lucky, Carlton! I also want to be assisted by a hero!"

"Well done, Carlton! Well done! You didn't embarrass our youth team!"

Everyone embraced him enthusiastically, as if embracing their own dreams. (《》)

They could feel the fire in their hearts burning brightly, lighting the way to Wembley Stadium.

※※※

Martin O'Neal lowered his head when he saw this scene on the court. It seemed that they could continue on...

He lowered his head for just a moment, and soon he raised his head again, raised his arms and cheered for the goal.

Behind him, Clark, who was also cheering, had a happy smile hidden in his eyes.

These own disciples finally did not embarrass themselves. It seems that what I said has had an effect...

※※※

The people of Liverpool were cheering for their goal and their lead.

The people of Birmingham were a little depressed.

Before the game, they believed that Liverpool's biggest threat was Chen Yingxiong, so their minds were full of how to deal with Chen Yingxiong, not how to deal with Liverpool.

They didn't think they were underestimating the enemy, they felt they were cautious enough. They just think that the current Liverpool reserve team does not need to pay so much attention. If it were the Liverpool reserve team last season, they would definitely be very energetic and not dare to neglect at all.

Who would have thought, who would have thought... the final result was that the Liverpool reserve team took the lead because they underestimated their opponent.

This is really depressing!

People in Birmingham were depressed, while people in Liverpool were elated.

The happiest people are actually not the Liverpool fans in the stands and in front of the TV, but the players of the Liverpool reserve team.

This goal gave them a lot of confidence and made them feel that their hard training these days had finally paid off and was worth it.

They were finally able to keep up with Chen Yingxiong's galloping pace.

Going to Wembley together seems to be getting closer.

This goal greatly boosted the morale of the Liverpool players. In the following games, the Liverpool reserve team, led by Chen Yingxiong, gradually took control of the rhythm of the game.

Not only Carlton Cole scored the goal, but other players, no matter what position they were in, performed very well and worked hard.

Liverpool's youth training has a fine tradition, but it has fallen behind due to lack of financial investment in the past few years. But with the end of last season, Liverpool planned to shift the focus of team building to the youth team, and the youth team has achieved development and progress. At the same time, there are many good prospects in the youth team. They may not be able to adapt to the status of Liverpool first team players for a while, but in the reserve team, they are all players with outstanding abilities.

These players have the ability themselves, but lack the experience to play this kind of game. Once they accumulate experience, they will definitely be no worse than those first teams in lower leagues. Not to mention that many of them have played together in the youth team for several years, so their tacit understanding is completely useless.

Therefore, when Chen Yingxiong stimulated them and they burst out with huge fighting power, it was natural that Birmingham, which despised them, could not resist it.

The next game became one-sided. Birmingham, who played at home, was completely suppressed by the boys from the Liverpool reserve team.

If there was only a Liverpool reserve team, Birmingham wouldn't be in such a mess.

The protagonist appears at this time - Chen Yingxiong's existence is the last straw that breaks Birmingham's mind.

When the Birmingham players were just about to rush out for a fight with the Liverpool reserve team, Chen Yingxiong would stand up and give them a hard blow, causing them to quickly cover their faces and retreat.

This is the home stadium in Birmingham! They behaved as if they were guests, which was really frustrating!

※※※

At the end of the first half, Chen Yingxiong finally scored. He used a long shot from outside the penalty area to send the football into the Birmingham gate.

The score of 2:0, combined with what everyone saw in the first half, and considering the strength comparison between the two teams, many people felt that this game had basically lost its suspense.

During the forty-five minutes of the second half, it was unlikely that Birmingham would equalize or even take the lead. The reason is simple. Chen Yingxiong is not a vegetarian. He only scored one goal in this game. He will definitely not give up in the second half. He will score more goals.

So Birmingham should pray that they don't lose too badly in the end, instead of praying that they can come back and win...

The final score was 4:1. Chen Yingxiong scored another goal in the second half. Carlton Cole, who was in good form in this game, also scored another goal. Both men scored twice.

Although Chen Yingxiong was named the best of the game after the game, he grabbed Carlton Cole and took photos with him holding champagne. Then he said to the reporters: "Remember his name. , his name is Carlton Cole, he is very powerful!”

The reporters immediately focused their cameras on the young Cole, and their flashbulbs kept flashing.

Carlton Cole obviously didn't expect that he would get such treatment, and that Chen Yingxiong could give him such high praise.

Of course he knows what benefits this kind of treatment will bring to him. The whole of England will know his name overnight. Although he has scored twice, everyone will only treat him as an ordinary player. Chen When the hero is named, it will be completely different. Maybe he will be given a few "genius" hats.

After this, your development will be smoother than before.

Happiness came so quickly that Cole didn't even know how to deal with it. He lowered his head, looking a little embarrassed and a little excited.

But my heart is as sweet as eating honey.

Teammates also envy Cole, but no one envies him, because this is a reward he earned based on his own strength and performance. This is what he deserves, and no one can question it. If they want to receive the same treatment as Cole, they have to work harder and perform better in training and games.

Because of Chen Yingxiong's move, the morale within the Liverpool reserve team was higher. At the same time, they were more confident in the future and became more determined to follow Chen Yingxiong.

The combat effectiveness of Liverpool's reserve team has been upgraded again.

Of course, this is not what Chen Yingxiong can know. He just made an unintentional move at the time, thinking that Cold played really well and deserved to win the best. Out of a "big brother" attitude, he should also help this junior, so he officially introduced Cole to the media reporters and the entire England.

Sure enough, when the major media in England reported the League Cup match the next day, they focused on Carlton Cole, a 19-year-old young man who played on the wing in the youth team and could play on both wings. Fighting, fast, good technique, strong awareness of forward penetration.

For a time, many "genius" titles fell on Cole's head.

Cole's own qualities are certainly very good, but Chen Yingxiong can't help whether he can really become a talent. After all, he has to walk his own road in the future. If he gets lost in the sudden praise from everyone and disappears from everyone in the future, that will be his own business...
