Old Trafford.

The surrounding stands suddenly fell silent, including the fans and reporters in the stands, including the referees, coaches and players in the stadium, all looking at the Manchester United goal.

The soccer ball crashes into the goal, hits the grass, bounces up and falls, bounces up and falls again......

The key football is inside the goal.

The ball is in!

Everyone reacted, but most of them didn't exclaim and shout at the first time, but recalled the process just now, Newcastle United's number 13, with his back to Carrick and kicked the ball behind him.

And then...... The goal went in?

"Is this shit luck, or is it accurate kicking?" There was a jumble of voices coming from the stands.

The "Sky Sports" commentator was most surprised by the feeling of the goal, and a second ago he was still introducing the starting lineup, "Newcastle United midfielders, it is Bart and Barton, Bart is still in great form, as a famous star of Manchester United, back at Old Trafford, probably in a ...... mood"

“——！？”

"The ball went in??"

His voice took a turn so abruptly that some fans who didn't pay attention in front of the TV immediately looked at the screen and found that the football had arrived inside the Manchester United goal, and everyone was surprised.

"I didn't sleep, did I?"

"It seems like the game has just started, and I've just grabbed a bottle of beer and I'm ready to take a slow look...... How did you score? ”

"Manchester United breached?"

"Who got in?"

The TV screen helped the fans review the process, and they all knew that it was Zhen Shaolong who scored the goal.

"A backward shot from outside the box ......"

The narrator's voice was a little complicated and a little incredulous, "This kind of ball...... It should be considered a shot, right? Maybe Zhen Shaolong found out that he was going to be flanked, so he kicked back, wanting to try his luck and pass it to Owen? But the ball flew straight into the goal! ”

"Of course, it's possible that he just shoots!"

"We all know that Zhen Shaolong's footwork is very accurate, and if this kind of ball is aimed at the goal, it may also be kicked accurately. Whether it's a shot or luck, you can only ask Zhen Shaolong himself. ”

'It was a surprise and very fast, and the game just started...... Twelve seconds, the exact time is twelve seconds and five, Zhen Shaolong helped Newcastle United complete the goal! ”

"They have the lead away from Manchester United!"

"Now we can say that it took Zhen Shaolong twelve seconds to break through the Old Trafford stadium......"

The last sentence of the commentator was a little schadenfreude, he was not a Manchester United fan, but supported Arsenal, and it was very refreshing to see Manchester United concede the goal so early.

Of course.

The commentary should try to be neutral, but in the case of neutrality, it is okay to deviate a little, he can't feel sorry for Manchester United, that is tantamount to supporting Manchester United.

The commentator then talked about the record, "This goal is a little faster, it almost breaks the record, the Premier League's record for the fastest goal is 9.82 seconds, set by Tottenham defender Ledley King. ”

"It's only two seconds away!"

"But it is quite remarkable to be able to break through Manchester United's goal in more than ten seconds, and the gold content is much higher!"

Meantime.

The fans in the stands around also reacted, and the visiting Newcastle United fans cheered wildly, they were so happy, they broke through Manchester United's goal in more than ten seconds, and they didn't even dare to think about it.

Manchester United fans --

"How did you concede the ball? Can this also go in? ”

"What's going on?"

"What is Van der Sar doing! You can kick this kind of ball! "They all gritted their teeth, especially unwilling to accept that it was the opponent's number 13 who scored.

They were planning to teach each other a lesson, and they dared to say that they scored two goals against Manchester United, and they didn't take Manchester United seriously at all.

And then what?

What the hell is this going to do?

Manchester United fans were depressed and thought that they should boo to fight back, but their boos were not strong enough, because they did score, and no matter how 'boo' the score would not be rewritten.

Sidelines.

Allardyce's mouth was almost closed, and he felt as if he was drenched from head to toe in the cold water on a hot summer day--

Cool!

Ferguson's words before the game made him almost vomit blood in anger, and the old guy actually questioned his coaching ability, saying that his ability was only enough to lead a small club, which was really a bit deceptive.

He couldn't fight back.

Football coaches are also contrasting, Ferguson is undoubtedly the figure at the top of the pyramid, and he, Sam Allardyce, is only a second-tier coach.

Whether it is experience, age, coaching achievements, etc., he and Ferguson are not on the same level, and whatever he says will be dismissed by the media, and even Newcastle United fans will not be very supportive.

The gap between the two sides is too great.

How's it going now? Manchester United conceded a goal at the beginning, and the game was a direct counter-attack!

Allardyce smirked at Ferguson.

Ferguson also stood on the sidelines, he noticed Allardyce's eyes, and he was also annoyed, but the opponent completed the goal, Allardyce was 'villainous', and it was useless to be angry.

He's even angrier at the defense!

Before the game, he formulated a detailed defensive strategy, and the defensive arrangement of Zhen Shaolong was very detailed.

But......

Now it seems to have become useless, and the opponent scored in more than ten seconds?

"What the hell is Van der Sar doing!"

Van der Sar can only be blamed for this goal, the opponent's shot is indeed sudden, but a hanging door that is not too strong, even if the angle is a little tricky, can be saved.

Van der Sar didn't concentrate at all!

Ferguson couldn't help but shout angrily, "Get serious, what are you doing!" ”

"It's already a game!"

"A bunch of idiots!"

It is estimated that only Ferguson dares to scold the players so mercilessly, Manchester United's players on the field were yelled at in their hearts, even if it was C-Ronaldo, who walked by, they shrunk their necks in fright, although the goal was broken and he had nothing to do with it, but when Ferguson was angry, he didn't dare to have a relationship, everyone was afraid of his temper.

This is Alex Ferguson.

Newcastle United, ignoring Ferguson, Milner, Barton and Owen are going back with Zhen Shaolong.

Milner kept saying the goal, "The ball was amazing!" ”

"Outside the box, shoot back! I can't make it if I get a hundred chances! ”

"Nothing."

Zhen Shaolong said very low-key, "It's just luck, luck!" During the game, the activation of "Privilege" made him feel very relaxed, and when he talked about scoring goals, he would modestly say that it was luck, "I didn't expect to score a goal, I just tried to play it, anyway, it just started!" ”

Hearing the phrase 'luck', Barton suddenly excited, "It seems that our slogans are still useful, and I feel that my luck has improved recently." ”

Milner followed, "I feel that way, too. It's not just luck, I think I've become more confident in shooting. ”

"Same as me!" "I think every time I shout the slogan, I feel confident in my shot, and I don't know why. ”

"It definitely works!"

Zhen Shaolong's tone was very affirmative, "I said a long time ago that shouting slogans is very useful, singing the praises of sportsmanship can increase luck!" Trust me! ”

"Of course, I trust the Boss."

Milner followed, "I never doubted it. ”

Owen stood next to a few people, listening to it in his heart, it was very difficult for him to score a goal, every time he wanted to score a goal, he had to wait for an opportunity, work hard, and look at luck to a certain extent, but Zhen Shaolong's goal was very easy, as if he was looking for an opportunity to score the goal.

To say, 'If you have a chance, you can score', it is considered that the opponent's level of strength is high, but like the ball just now, you can score without a chance, and it is a little too sad in comparison.

"Why is he so lucky?" Owen kept looking at Zhen Shaolong, and then turned his head to look at Milner and Barton, "Milner can score consecutive goals and have a lot of assists, and so does Barton." ”

The latter is no wonder.

At present, in the Newcastle United lineup, Zhen Shaolong is recognized as the best player, Milner and Barton are second, the two have more assists and a lot of goals, Milner and Owen have the same number of goals, and the assists rank second in the team, and Barton is the 'assist king' of the Premier League.

Owen has always wanted to have a good performance, but he has always been able to 'poof' an assist, such as a shot that is not scored and is made up, or creating set-piece opportunities, and Zhen Shaolong 'helps' to score.

Neither way was what he wanted.

For strikers, scoring goals is the most important measure, and the whole English football world knows that Newcastle United is the most closely marked by Zhen Shaolong, even the powerful Manchester United will defend him tightly, and he, Michael Owen, has been reduced to a 'shadow striker', Manchester United does not notice at all, and will not limit it.

That's the gap.

Owen couldn't help but be suspicious, "Could it be ...... Can that kind of embarrassing declaration really improve luck in the game, and even improve the level of performance? ”

"Impossible."

When he got back into his position and was ready to continue playing, Owen still shook his head in denial, he didn't believe in such a ridiculous thing, and would rather believe that Milner and Barton's feelings were just a psychological delusion.

————

The game soon restarted.

Manchester United used the kick-off to launch an attack towards Newcastle United's half, and their first wave of attack was a little conservative, with C-Ronaldo on the right leading the attack to the edge of the penalty area, and no one in midfield was cut off at all, and then the ball went to Newcastle United's feet.

United retreated quickly, their midfield defence was tight, and Newcastle United's attack ended after just half-time.

Then the two sides go back and forth.

On the whole of the opening game, Manchester United still has an advantage, they control more time, the backfield, midfield, and forwards are more closely connected, the attack is more targeted, and the danger to the penalty area is greater.

Newcastle United's attack is also good, but Barton and Bart are not the kind of players with very good technical ability, and the midfield they lead is relatively rough in terms of technique.

It's also a problem up front.

Owen's performance is relatively active, but Owen's style of play is not strong, and he still needs to wait for his opportunity.

Zhen Shaolong was very well guarded.

Manchester United's midfield and backfield played 120 points of attention to Zhen Shaolong, and only scored a goal at the beginning, they really felt very depressed, and after the game restarted, the players consciously strengthened their defense.

"Don't let him touch the ball!"

It's the slogan shouted by Rio Ferdinand, the heart of Manchester United's backline.

Don't even let the ball touch, it seems to be very domineering, and it is basically impossible to do, but Manchester United is doing well around the penalty area, Zhen Shaolong is running around the penalty area, and there will definitely be players around him who will follow closely.

Sometimes it's Carrick, sometimes it's Rio Ferdinand, sometimes it's Evra or Nemanja Vidic.

In fact, when Manchester United arranged defensive tactics, it did not decide to let the players 'follow closely', Manchester United is the top giants in England and even Europe, the world, and has absolute confidence in their own strength.

Now it's different.

Zhen Shaolong helped Newcastle United score in more than ten seconds, Manchester United players were all shocked, and the midfielders found that they had to pay more attention to it.

Many Manchester United players also felt that Rio Ferdinand was right, "Don't let the opponent touch the ball!" ”

If you don't even give the opponent a chance to touch the ball, it will be impossible for the opponent to perform.

That's the best defense.

Manchester United's defense made Zhen Shaolong's scalp a little numb, he was used to being closely marked, but the close marking is also different, the ability of a single player in an ordinary team must not be compared with Manchester United, Carrick, Ferdinand, Evra, etc., every player who comes over can bring him a lot of pressure, they target together, and they really can't even catch the ball.

Of course.

It is impossible for any defense to let a player not even touch the ball, but Zhen Shaolong must wait for the opportunity, rather than rashly go to the backcourt to get the ball.

That doesn't make any sense.

It was showtime for Manchester United, who continued to attack and kept Newcastle United at bay, with Paul Scholes firing a through ball and finding Wayne Rooney, who rushed up and fired a powerful shot that almost broke the door of Given's guard.

Newcastle then launched a counter-attack.

N'Zogbia dribbled quickly on the left and tried to cross when he was close to the penalty line, but was brought to the ground by Neville on the opposite side.

"Foul!"

N'Zogbia gestured to the referee in exasperation.

Neville raised his hands in an innocent gesture and the referee awarded the ball to Newcastle United and gave Neville a verbal warning.

Newcastle United won set-pieces.

The set-piece was not well positioned, just outside the left corner of the penalty area, a little far from the goal, and the angle was a little too small.

Enzobia asked Zhen Shaolong, "You want to try?" ”

Zhen Shaolong shook his head.

The Manchester United players in the distance exhaled a long breath, as long as it wasn't Zhen Shaolong's free throw, they didn't have to worry too much, but when Zhen Shaolong walked past Enzobia's side, he whispered, "I'll push it forward later." ”

"Push forward?"

"Yes, kick it in my direction normally, not too hard."

Zhen Shaolong explained a little, and stood on the right side of Manchester United's human wall, and after Ferdinand organized the human wall, he simply stood beside him, and kept squeezing with his body, as if he was going to engage in a tense scramble.

Zhen Shaolong simply moved two steps to the right.

Ferdinand followed.

He moved again.

Ferdinand followed.

"It doesn't have to be like this, right?" Zhen Shaolong said very exaggeratedly, "He won't pass it on to me, don't worry!" I'm not good at headers! ”

Ferdinand was right when he thought about it, and noticed his position, which deviated too much to grab a point, but he still followed him and didn't squeeze harder.

"Thank you!"

Zhen Shaolong arrived and thanked him.

Ferdinand nodded slightly, as if to say, 'I'll let you go this time'.

N'Zogbia stands at the penalty spot.

Manchester United judged that Enzobia would pass the ball to his teammates, most likely Barton in the side, or Milner in the distance, Owen was in the human wall and was very tightly defended, Zhen Shaolong stood outside, basically did not pose a threat, and he was marked by Ferdinand.

If N'Zogbia chooses to cross, there is no threat to arrive, because Barton and Milner are far away and it is impossible to shoot directly with their feet.

So Manchester United don't care.

Finally.

The referee signaled that he could take a free throw, and Enzobia ran on the spot, waved his left foot high, and then gently put down the ball and pushed it to Zhen Shaolong.

“——？”

"What is this doing?"

Manchester United was a little incomprehensible for a while, and even Ferdinand was a little confused.

At the moment when Enzobia waved his foot, Zhen Shaolong rushed forward to meet the ball, and waited until he ran two or three steps before Ferdinand reacted to keep up.

It's late!

Zhen Shaolong met the ball, without any hesitation, he turned directly one hundred and eighty degrees, and came to the spot with a reverse and powerful volley.

"Bang!"

Driven by great force, the football quickly rushed past Ferdinand, and under the correction of "Free Fire", it soared out of a huge arc and pierced towards the far corner on the right side of the goal.

Van der Sar stood in front of the goal, blocked by the human wall, and found that N'Zogbia had not shot, and did not know what was happening, and it was too late to see the ball flying over.

His only reaction was to wave his hand to the right and watch the ball fly against the crossbar into the goal.

The ball is in!

Everyone in the stadium was stunned by this wonderful reflexive volley.

Ferdinand stopped where he was, turned his head to look at the ball that flew into the door, and the 'shocked' reaction of the others was slightly different, he let out a long sigh, his face was full of sadness, and then turned his head to look at Zhen Shaolong, gritted his teeth and asked, "You are so amazing!" ”

"But...... Excuse me, where is the most basic trust between people and people? ”
