After Manchester United replaced the goalkeeper, the game continued.
But from this moment on, every time Lin Xuan made a long pass or shot, Manchester United's defensive players avoided it for fear that the ball would hit them.
If it hit other places, it would only hurt a little. What if it hit a vital part? End of the line?
Under the influence, their defense also revealed a little gap.
In the second half, Arsenal's U18 got an opportunity to attack. Lin Xuan received the ball and made a powerful volley.
Cleverley subconsciously wanted to turn his back to block the ball, but he did not dare to block it head-on.
He did not expect this to be a fake move!
Lin Xuan's fake shot was real, forming a breakthrough!
Realization dawned on Cleverley, and he quickly chased after him! They were already at the edge of the penalty area. It was extremely dangerous!
Without a choice, the youngster, Cleverley, grabbed Lin Xuan's jersey and pulled him to the ground.
Beep! The
referee blew the whistle and rushed over to show a yellow card to Cleverley!
The two teams had no objections. There was nothing wrong with this yellow card.
Lin Xuan helped the team get a direct free kick!
He stood in front of the ball and personally took the penalty.
Manchester United's five players lined up as a human wall, ready to block the direct free kick.
However, they discovered to their horror that Lin Xuan didn't choose to use a curveball to bypass the human wall.
He actually retreated 10 meters away and chose to run a long distance to kick off!
"F * ck!"
"Are you kidding me?"
The Manchester United players in the human wall immediately thought of what happened to the goalkeeper, Ben Amos!
At this moment, the referee's whistle had already sounded, and Lin Xuan had already begun his run-up!
It was too late for the Manchester United youth players to regret it.
Bang!
The football was whipped hard and turned into a heavy cannon towards the goal!
The human wall players were shocked!
Danny Welbeck saw the ball coming towards him and instinctively wanted to dodge the danger. He leaned slightly to the side.
It was this tiny gap that allowed the football to pass through!
When the goalkeeper saw it, it was already too late to react!
2:1! Overtake the score!
In the end, the score was maintained until the end.
Arsenal's U18 defeated Manchester United and broke into the FA Youth Cup final!
After the match, when Lin Xuan and his teammates walked to the locker room, he inadvertently looked up at the audience.
He did not expect to meet another gaze!
The red-nosed old man and Lin Xuan exchanged a glance across the air. They smiled and nodded before turning around and leaving.
Arsenal
's U18 team had been advancing triumphantly this season. Led by Lin Xuan, they had won 23 consecutive victories in both competitions!
(In fact, the youth team still had the Youth Champions League. Arsenal's U18 was hastily eliminated before Lin Xuan arrived.)
In the Youth League Group A standings, Arsenal's U18 led with 19 wins, 1 draw, and 0 losses.
The top of Group B was definitely Leicester City.
The two teams would eventually play in the semi-finals and then compete with the winner of Manchester United VS Sunderland for the Youth League title!
In
the midst of the intense competition, it was already February.
This was the first time Lin Xuan spent the Spring Festival alone in a foreign country.
"Mom…yes, I have a match to play recently, so I really can't go back.”
"Don't worry, I'm really fine here. I'm even a little heavier.”
"It's true. It's not bitter at all. It's especially fulfilling!”
"Have a good New Year at home. I'll go back after this season.”
After hanging up, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
In his previous life, he almost never returned home after working. He was extremely busy every year, but he didn't earn much money. He didn't know what he was busy with.
After being reborn, he was still wandering outside and not returning home.
Fortunately, he was already halfway into the door of a professional player, and it was a powerhouse team.
This time, there was finally hope of earning more money so that his parents could enjoy a better life.
The most important thing was to realize his dream of two lifetimes.
"Happy New Year! "Scatter flowers," Luo Qingyan said on QQ.
"Happy New Year."
There
were also some traditional Chinese New Year celebrations in England. Chinese restaurants would be decorated with lanterns and streamers, making it a lively scene.
However, Lin Xuan didn't have time to enjoy the festival. The Youth League was about to begin!
After the Spring Festival, Lin Xuan's Arsenal youth team advanced triumphantly and won the first place in Group A of the Youth League with a complete victory!
Their opponent in the semi-finals was Leicester City's U18, the top player in Group B.
There was no suspense in this game. Arsenal's youth team won 2:0 and entered the Youth League final!
Perhaps it was because he was stunned by Lin Xuan's two ferocious shots, but the top of Group D, Manchester United U18, unexpectedly lost to Sunderland U18!
Hence, Lin Xuan's opponent in the final became the black cat Sunderland!
"Damn! He still hoped to play against Manchester United again to let his future teammates get to know him better.”
Lin Xuan sighed helplessly.
They did not expect the Manchester United youth team to be so vulnerable.
At this point, there were only two finals left in Lin Xuan's match with Arsenal's youth team!
Lin Xuan's first and only youth team season, whether he would return with a full harvest or not, would soon be known!
The
day before the FA Youth Cup final against Liverpool, Lin Xuan was packing his things in the locker room and preparing to return to his dormitory when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Lin, you haven't gone back yet. Did you practice again?”
It was the head of youth training, Liam Bradley.
Lin Xuan was very grateful to Coach Bradley.
After all, he was indebted to him.
"Yes, I want to maintain my best condition in the finals.”
"This is also what I admire most about you. Although you are very talented, hard work is more important. You'll definitely be able to get on a bigger stage when you go to Manchester United in the future!”
Freddy smiled in relief.
The confident young man who had just entered the training room now had the temperament of a superstar!
