"Audience friends, this is Manchester City Stadium, I'm Scarlett Eland, and we specially invited the famous football commentator Martin Taylor to enjoy this exciting League C conversation with us!"

"Hello everyone!" Taylor greeted the audience with a smile.

"It's a game that has caused a lot of repercussions in Manchester, and there are even a lot of fans who think that this game will even lead the way of the whole League C, Martin, what do you think about that?" Scarlett is becoming more and more proficient in hosting live broadcasts.

"I agree that although the season is still long, Brighton is the best team to win the title, Brighton is first, Cardiff is second, I thought it would be Hartlepool or Hull, but I didn't expect that the third place will be Black, but both teams are a little unsatisfactory."

"What about the new Manchester United? What do you think of this team? Scarlett asked with a smile.

Taylor smiled, "It's a very young team, both in the history of the team and the average age of the players, they are young and energetic, but young is also dangerous, especially in this game, we all know that Sylvain Distin has just transferred to Newcastle and Stanson has gone to Birmingham, which has made the new Manchester United, which is already injured, immediately short of manpower, and has to promote Academy youngster Curtis Davies to the starter." ”

"He's a future star in the minds of the new Manchester United fans, don't you fancy him?"

'Frankly, I haven't followed his game, I don't know about him, but I have to say that it is a big risk to start a young player in such a big game and it could even ruin a young player's confidence and even his future.

Scarlett agreed with Taylor's words, "But it can't be helped, the new Manchester United can't keep people, Abidal, Hangrande and Gary Turner are all injured, I can only say that this is the result of a disaster!" ”

"So, I think this game is not so much about the attack, but rather about the defense, everyone knows that the attacking ability of the new Manchester United makes all the teams in the League C feel fearful, the trident is terrifying, but whether their backline can withstand Brighton's **-like blow in this game, this is the key to this game!"

'Brighton have certainly found out about that, and I even believe that Brighton will be the opponent in this game, playing attacking football when they play away from home to the new Manchester United and the priority is to be the first to score the new Manchester United goal.

Scarlett smiled: "But the fans also say that since its inception, New Manchester United have only lost three games at home, and since moving into the City Stadium, New Manchester United are unbeaten at home, and they have a natural psychological advantage on this field!" ”

'It's remarkable, really, remarkable, especially when you look at the atmosphere at the home of the new Manchester United, the fans are almost all over the city stadium and they can put a lot of pressure on the visitors, but I stick to my opinion, it's all about defence!'

After the two exchanged pre-match comments, they saw that the players in the starting lineups of the two teams walked into the players one after another, the formation of the new Manchester United in this game is still 433, while Brighton is a typical 442 English tactic, and their two forwards are also a combination of one high and one fast.

…………

…………

As the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, Brighton, who kicked off first, immediately launched a fierce attack on the new Manchester United defence.

"We can see that the new Manchester United have dropped back a lot, and the back three also think more about defense, Mourinho obviously expected Brighton to play attacking football, so he avoided his edge and chose to defend!"

Curtis stood in the middle of the pitch, staring nervously at the Brighton No.11 striker in front of him, his mind recalling the information that the manager had just handed him in the dressing room.

The speed is fast, the body is very flexible, the habitual foot is the right foot, the left foot technique is very bad, the style is a bit unique, pay attention when defending, don't let him speed up, otherwise it will be difficult to watch.

This is the report submitted by assistant coach Boas, Curtis is deeply engraved in his mind, he knows very well the important surname of this game, so he doesn't want to lose, and he can't lose!

When the opposing midfielder went through a few passes, it seemed to find a hole in the new Manchester United side and immediately passed the ball to the feet of the No. 11 striker, and Curtis immediately stuck to it, squeezing the position and preventing him from turning.

The opponent obviously expected Curtis to be young and lack of confrontation ability, so he wanted to squeeze Curtis with his body, but who knew that Curtis was like a mountain, and he didn't move, but squeezed the opponent to a stumbling and almost lost the ball.

No, the opponent can only pass back to his teammates in the midfield, looking at Curtis's eyes with some resentment, he originally thought that Curtis was a soft persimmon that was easy to pinch, but who knew that it was not.

After a few passes in midfield, the ball was quickly back at the feet of the number 11, and Brighton clearly calculated Curtis in this game to attack him.

After the No. 11 grabbed the ball on Curtis, he immediately passed the ball to his teammate, then turned and ran forward, and his teammate immediately passed diagonally behind Curtis after receiving the ball, forming a beautiful one-two.

But just when the number 11 thought he was winning, Curtis suddenly turned from behind, accelerated, and slided, and the ball was neatly broken by him, and immediately passed to his teammate Bosingwa on the right, who broke through along the right side and counterattacked.

"It's not easy, little ghost!" The No. 11 striker passed by Curtis with some haze.

Curtis ignored him, just focusing on the attack ahead.

The attack was sudden, but Brighton's defence was also solid, and the crisis was quickly defused, with a long pass from the back to the front of the pitch to find the No.9 striker.

Curtis looked at Terry, who immediately pulled back, then he sped up to determine where the ball would land, and before the opposition's No.9 striker arrived, he leaped high and headed a long ball into Essien's way of heading it to Essien.

The fans immediately applauded Curtis's two outstanding performances in quick succession.

"It's very steady, this young player, speed, agility, bounce, headers, all aspects are excellent, especially the calm judgment, not at all like a teenager under 16!" Taylor smiled and applauded.

"And I think he works well with Terry, and when Curtis stepped forward to top the ball, Terry was obviously pulling back, and he was obviously thinking about the consequences of Curtis's not hitting the ball." Scarlett also laughed and said that she was happy that the new United were doing well, which she didn't even notice herself.

'It should have been the manager's pre-game set-up, John Terry was more solid, Curtis was younger and inexperienced, but looking at the first 10 minutes of the game, I have to admit that Curtis Davis was a great performer.

Jose Mourinho was on the sidelines, he didn't hear Taylor's comments, but he knew in his heart that Curtis was doing his best, but the question was, how long can he stay in that form?

Young players are easily affected by emotions, which leads to great ups and downs in form, but now there are no old players on the new Manchester United field, and when Schmeichel was there before, he would remind Terry, but now he is not even on the field, so they can only rely on their own play and care.

Juninho is the captain of the pitch, but he is in midfield and he is the attacking point of the new Manchester United and it is difficult to juggle the backline.

Taylor is right, the key to this game is defense!

Come on, little bastard, you better not let us down! Mourinho shouted in his heart.

"The game went on for 25 minutes, and the score between the two sides was still 0:0, but we can see that the most eye-catching performance on the field is not the new Manchester United trident, nor Brighton's high-speed combination, it is a teenager under the age of 16, he has resolved Brighton's attack again and again in just 25 minutes of play, completely frozen the opponent's two strikers, let's remember his name, Curtis Davis!"

As soon as Scarlett's words fell, the scene immediately remembered a burst of enthusiastic cheers, which even the audience in front of the TV watching the broadcast could hear clearly, and the cheers were obviously given to Curtis, who had just made a beautiful tackle.

The under-16 boy was almost perfect in the game, with Brighton's two strikers not taking even the slightest advantage in front of him, and he gave Almunia no chance to show himself to the fans behind him!

"Let's see, Curtis accelerated early and cut off Brighton's pass to the number 11 striker, he looked up at his team-mate and seemed to want to pass the ball!"

"Oh, it's not a pass, oh my God, he actually burst forward with the ball himself, he was very fast with the ball, and he entered Brighton's half, this sudden move completely disrupted Brighton's defensive formation, and they wouldn't believe that Curtis dared to dribble the ball into their half single-handedly."

"Curtis passed the ball to the retreating Hleb, who crossed the middle to Juninho, who stopped the ball and tucked it directly behind the opposition right wing-back!"

"Malouda, Malouda suddenly accelerates, catches the ball, crosses!"

"The ball is in!" Scarlett shouted, "In the 31st minute of the first half, New Manchester United, New Manchester United scored the first goal of the game, and it was high school striker Kitson who opened the scoring for New Manchester United, and his close-range header completely disarmed the Brighton goalkeeper!" ”

"It was a very good attack!" Taylor also looked excited, "We can see that from Curtis's sudden forward, to Hleb's retreat to receive the ball, to Juninho Jr.'s receiving the ball and going straight behind him, it all seems to be premeditated, and the new Manchester United have obviously practiced this tactic!" ”

The fans at the scene didn't care about anything else, they only knew that the team was ahead, so they sang and cheered one by one, one by one with singing, cheering, cheering and applause to support the players fighting on the field, and even did not hesitate to praise them one by one, especially for the young Curtis, who has performed perfectly so far in this game.

And Brighton's manager shook his hand angrily after Kitterson's goal, and he looked like he couldn't eat people, on the other hand, Mourinho on the side, he smiled sinisterly, obviously proud of his sudden conspiracy!

As Martin Taylor said, it was premeditated, but it was also a gamble, betting on whether Curtis could withstand the pressure!

Thankfully, he did!
