Before Lin Xuan, Park Ji-sung was the well-deserved " Big Brother in Asia."
He was not a fringe figure in Manchester United's team. He even started in the Champions League final last season and became the first Asian star player to achieve this achievement.
As a result, the Korean media was proud of Park Ji-sung, and any news related to Park Ji-sung could be used as a form of entertainment.
For example, when the team won after Ji-sung Park appeared, the Korean media boasted that Ji-sung Park led the team to victory.
" The Koreans are the only Asian players in Europe."
It was as if Ji-sung Park was the only true core in Manchester United's formation, and Rooney and Ronaldo had to step aside.
These Korean media automatically ignored the champion Lin Xuan who was far away in the Bundesliga.
Now that Lin Xuan was in Manchester United's lineup, the Han media could no longer ignore him.
They could only brag in a different way.
" Young Chinese player joins Manchester United only because he follows in the footsteps of Asian predecessor Park Ji-sung."
" Insider reveals that Ji-sung Park helped Lin Xuan become the main midfielder."
" Lin Xuan is still too young. The key battle of the derby in the same city still depends on Park Ji-sung's performance."
When the domestic netizens learned of the Korean media's actions, they were instantly filled with righteous indignation.
"This is too shameless. Ji-sung Park is currently in the rotation lineup, right? Lin Xuan is the core.”
"The goals that Ji-sung Park scored in two years were completed by Lin Xuan in two games.”
"Isn't it obvious that he's the number one Asian? Which data doesn't Lin Xuan completely crush Park Ji-sung?”
In fact, many Manchester United fans in the country liked Park Sanfei.
His tireless running and professionalism were worthy of admiration.
However, due to the shameless bragging of the Korean media, many people began to dislike Park Ji-sung.
It just so happened that both Park Ji-sung and Lin Xuan were present at the Manchester City Derby.
It would be clear at a glance who was Asia's number one during the competition!
……
Old Trafford, home team locker room.
Lin Xuan felt like there was an earthquake, and the entire stadium was trembling slightly.
As expected of the same city derby, the atmosphere exploded before the match even started.
Sir Alex Ferguson stood in the center and looked around at the soldiers who were about to play.
"I don't need to say much about this match. If you don't perform well, you know better than me what will happen.”
"The moment we step onto the field later, it won't be a game anymore. It'll be a f * cking battle!”
"Use a victory to tell everyone what color Manchester is?”
"Red!"
"Louder! I can't hear you!"
" Red!"
"Good, very energetic! Go on stage and fight!"
In the players 'tunnel, the Manchester United players were ready to play aggressively. At the same time, the Manchester City players also filed out of the away team's locker room.
The two teams gathered together and looked at each other. They were already filled with hostility.
Manchester City's lineup was basically the same as last season, and everyone was familiar with it.
Last season, Manchester United used their strong strength to double kill Manchester City, and the Blue Moon Army collectively held back.
For them, this match was also a battle for revenge.
Speaking of revenge, Manchester City's " Beast " Tevez was not hostile. Instead, he hugged and shook hands with his former teammates.
Especially Rooney, the two of them had been partners in the front line for a season and had a good relationship.
When Tevez first came to Manchester United, Rooney even lent his Lamborghini to Tevez.
Even though his former good friend had switched to his archenemy, he was forced to do so. Manchester United bought Berbatov at a high price and could not put him on the bench.
Thus, teammates had become opponents. In the past, they had fought side by side, but today, they were facing each other with swords.
Either you die or I die!
Lin Xuan witnessed all of this as a bystander.
Previously in the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim, where Lin Xuan was, did not have any archenemies and had never tried a derby.
Now, he could feel the difference in the derby.
Other than Tevez, everyone else was filled with gunpowder!
From this, it could be seen that it would probably be a fierce battle later!
After a series of pre-match ceremonies, the two teams stood in separate positions and waited for the kickoff.
The Theater of Dreams was full. Nearly 70,000 fans cheered excitedly and sang the team song.
The poor away fans could not make a sound at all.
Moreover, some of the seats were vacated as a buffer zone, and there were security guards guarding the entire time to prevent fan conflicts.
This highlight also attracted countless Chinese fans to watch the live broadcast. The commentator Zhan Jun and his partner Li Yuankui were still in charge of the commentary.
"Ladies and gentlemen of ESPM and Xinlang Sports, the Manchester City derby in the sixth round of the Premier League has begun!”
"The Red Devils, Manchester United, are playing at home against their arch-rival, Manchester City! This is Zhan Jun and Li Yuankui's commentary.”
"Manchester United played with their strongest lineup in a week of two games. Our country's young player, Lin Xuan, will be the first to play as the center midfielder!”
"In Manchester City's lineup, Tevez plays as a lone striker. Against his old club, his performance in this game is also crucial!”
Tevez had a strong impact, and his speed was a considerable threat to Manchester United's rear defensive line!
The match had just started, and the two teams did not probe at all. They directly entered a hand-to-hand battle!
Tevez went forward to press for the ball, causing Ferdinand to make a pass error and Manchester United almost conceded the ball!
Immediately after, Manchester United began to switch from defense to offense!
Giggs quickly sent the ball out of bounds on the flank, and Evra broke through after receiving the ball!
In the penalty area, he passed the ball back to Lin Xuan, who was in the ribs!
Lin Xuan broke free from De Rong's defense and decisively kicked!
"Evra! Pass it to Rooney? Return to the ribs! Lin Xuan's position was even better! He doesn't stop the ball and shoots directly!"
"Wow! Good shot! Beautiful! The game had just started at 1 minute and 53 seconds when Lin Xuan scored the first goal for Manchester United!!”
"He continued his previous fiery state and scored in this crucial derby game!”
"The Ferguson fans in the stands have gone crazy! Listen to the orderly shouts! They were shouting the hero's name! Lin Xuan!"
Generally speaking, it was difficult for new players to be liked by die-hard fans, but it was also very simple.
Perhaps you might not be recognized by the die-hard fans even if you scored every goal.
On the contrary, if you form a fierce tackle in the derby, the diehard fans may fall in love with you instantly.
Lin Xuan was already quite popular among the Manchester United fans.
Now, the moment Lin Xuan broke through Manchester City's goal, he was forever a god!
After helping the team achieve a dream start, Lin Xuan's teammates also rushed up and surrounded him!
"Lin, I f * cking love you to death!" Ferdinand rubbed Lin Xuan's hair excitedly.
"Well done!" Rooney stood on his tiptoes and patted Lin Xuan's shoulder hard.
“Boy! That's it, let's do it!" Giggs was overjoyed.
His teammates were too excited, and Lin Xuan was about to suffocate.
On the other hand, the Manchester City players were still a little dumbfounded. Conceding a goal at the start of the game was indeed a bit detrimental to morale.
……
Tevez looked at Lin Xuan with a complicated expression.
In the past, when he scored goals, Manchester United's teammates also surrounded him like this.
Now, Manchester United's savior had become Lin Xuan, who was younger than him. Tevez had mixed feelings and clenched his fists.
"Don't panic. There are still more than 80 minutes left. Pass the ball to me and I'll score one for them!”
Tevez shouted at his new teammate.
He wanted Ferguson to see with his own eyes that letting him go was a big mistake!
……
At this moment, Lin Xuan hurriedly calmed his teammates down.
"Alright, let's be more steady and be careful of their attacks. A one-goal lead isn't guaranteed!"
Lin Xuan was no stranger to the script of this game. In the same city derby, Owen scored in seconds.
It would be a classic battle 10 years later.
As fans, they might be happy to see such an exciting scene. For the Manchester United players, Lin Xuan only wanted to win the game steadily.
However, things were still developing in an uncontrollable direction.
In the 16th minute of the game, Manchester City launched an offensive. Manchester United's young goalkeeper, Foster, made a mistake and Tevez seized the opportunity!
Tevez passed the ball in the inverted triangle, and Manchester City's defensive midfielder Barry pushed it into the net!
Manchester City evened the score!
The repressed Manchester City fans finally got excited and made their noises.
Lin Xuan clenched his fists.
Since the goal war could be avoided, then let this game be even crazier!
I'll be the director this time!
