Chapter 072
Chapter 0072: We Are Witnessing the Birth of a Superstar!!!!
On the pitch.
Lin Xu was running wantonly.
This goal was definitely a good start for him.
The England national team is not Peterborough United.
Their midfield and Lin Xu only went through less than a week of intensive training.
Whether it is in terms of cooperation or trust, these people in the national team, even Foden and others who are close to him, cannot achieve the same level as Peterborough United to Lin Xu in such a short time.
Darren gave Lin Xu unlimited fire rights in the front court.
Everyone in Petersburg has long been accustomed to it, as long as Lin Xu is on the field, everyone will unconditionally give priority to passing the ball to their young captain.
Because they believe that Lin Xu can lead them to victory in the competition.
Such absolute trust.
It’s hard for any other team to do.
After all, Darren can replace the entire main lineup and replace five captains in one breath in order to better cooperate with Lin Xu tactically, and everyone envies that Petersburg can pick up a Lin Xu, but no one dares to take risks like Darren.
Even if they know that Lin Xu is very powerful, not every manager is willing to take such a big risk on the road to relegation.
Petersburg would not have been home to Darren three times.
And Darren also upgraded the team from the League One to the Championship, and the club will not allow him to do so.
The right time and place.
Only then did the current Petersburg captain Lin Xu and the Petersburg United who killed all sides in the Championship.
But in the England national team.
Lin Xucai joined the team, and he is the youngest.
Although he has played very well in the Championship, in the daily training at the St. George Park training base, Lin Xu’s personal ability is still a certain gap compared with these international players who are almost out of the pride or top league.
Southgate can listen to Darren’s advice and recruit him out of the ordinary.
But Lin Xu himself wants to gain the full trust of his teammates in the national team competition.
He needs to show a good enough performance first.
Repeated mistakes on the training ground, 06, are not enough to convince him.
And now.
This difficult goal at the National Stadium, which showed his shooting skills and physical qualities, has already earned him the trust of most people
Maybe some people are born with a talent for shooting.
As for Lin Xu’s poor passing and possession.
As long as Lin Xu can score steadily in front like now, what does it have to do with passing and not doing a good job in ball control.
There is no shortage of players with good passing skills in the team.
They need Lin Xu’s shooting skills and ball intelligence in front of goal.
Although it is a bit inappropriate to say that your teammates are.
But they have seen enough of Raheem Sterling’s happy football.
Lin Xu’s goal conversion rate is the teammate they really dream of.
Scoring goals is the best way to integrate into a team.
Just like Lin Xu did in Petersburg.
Lin Xu, who was running to celebrate the goal, was overwhelmed by Foden’s sprint, and the other England players saw this, and they all giggled and stacked the arhats
Even Kyle Walker and Grealish on the bench all rushed over.
Lin Xu was so pressed that he almost couldn’t breathe.
But he was happy.
He knew that after this goal, he really became part of the England national team.
Pressed to the bottom by his teammates, Lin Xu just took a deep breath when he smelled a strong smell of sweat, and he closed his eyes and simply screened his breath.
The person who invented this collective celebration must not have considered the feelings of the person at the bottom!
This means that he is still physically strong.
But if you change one that is not strong enough, you can crush two ribs.
He complained in his heart.
Subsequently.
Suddenly, there was a [ding] sound in my mind. The system has been online for a long time.
These days, because there is no competition, he hasn’t heard the mechanical sound of the system for a while.
Coming to a mission?!
【Ding! Congratulations to the host for scoring his first goal for the individual national team! 】
[Trigger the main mission two to help England lift the second Hercules Cup in team history.] On the way to the Hercules Cup, the host is awarded a draw for each game they win. When the Hercules Cup is finally raised, two golden skills are rewarded. 】
[Trigger the main quest three and become the faith of the fans.] On the way to becoming a star, you will be loved by many fans, go and become their faith, let more fans like you. 】
Lin Xu: “Huh? ”
“And then?”
System: [Gone.] 】
“No, what about the rewards of the main quest three??? The goal is also unknown? ”
System: [The goal of this mission is unknown, the reward is unknown.] 】
Lin Xu: “…”
Okay.
It means that I focus on participation, and then all the interpretation rights belong to you.
OK.
However, the main quest two, not to mention the card drawing opportunity, the total reward for holding the Hercules Cup in the end is only two golden skills.
He kind of saw it.
It’s still remarkable that his Draple’s sideline ball can be opened in one go, and I don’t know if I can have such good luck next time I draw cards.
Put away your mind for a moment.
After all his teammates got up, Lin Xu also got up from the ground.
He specifically went to hug Sancho.
Thank you to the Manchester United striker for this perfect assist.
Sancho smiled and gestured with a thumbs up.
Southgate watched the scene from the sidelines.
Suddenly turned his head and said to his assistant coach, Steve Holland, “I now know why Darren made him captain.” ”
Holland: “Huh? ”
“Having a player like Lin Xu on the field can really boost morale. And his strength will soon make his teammates like him. ”
Southgate touched his chin and covered his mouth and whispered, not knowing whether he was answering Holland or talking to himself.
Holland, the assistant coach, has long been accustomed to Southgate’s sometimes sudden appearance of two headless words, seeing this, there is no talk, the eyes of the two people look at the field.
Unlike the England fans who celebrate as if they were at home.
The small group of Andorran fans sitting in the home team’s fan area looked particularly frustrated.
Not many Andorra fans came to watch the game.
Because the team is always losing, the football atmosphere in Andorra is far less strong than in other countries participating in the World Qualifiers, and only a few Andorran fans come to support the team every time.
They’re used to losing.
Since taking office in 2010, current manager Cordor has led the team in 88 games, winning only five games in total, drawing 13 games and losing the rest.
But no one will blame Cordo.
Because it’s not a matter of coaching ability.
The quality of the players is such that in the European division, they can only be a weak brigade that is beaten by other teams.
Every time the team wins, it makes history for them.
It’s just that.
No matter how used to losing.
No one would like to be someone else’s backdrop either.
Andorra fans know that this match was the debut of the young man wearing the number 9 shirt today, and this goal of less than six and a half minutes was also the first goal Lin Xu scored for the England national team.
In the future, if Lin Xu becomes a top star in football.
That’s no doubt about it.
This official debut of Lin Xu in the national team will definitely be turned over by countless fans, made into a collection, made into a documentary, and publicized all over the world.
And at that time, they Andorra will be the most tragic backdrop.
The two central defenders used a foul action that could already award penalties to fall in front of the goal and failed to organize the goal, such a picture is a picture worth watching again and again for Lin Xu personally and the fans of England, but they Andorra have become the joke that will be whipped countless times.
Andorra is just a small country with a population of less than 80,000.
Every time the fans came to watch the game, they were almost the same group, and they did not expect to win against a strong English team.
They just want their team to play a little better.
A little better.
At least……
Don’t become someone else’s backdrop.
Don’t let the outcome turn into a tragedy.
But it’s a pity.
The wishes of these fans are doomed to be disappointed.
When Lin Xu scored a difficult goal.
The entire England squad, except for the rest of the Manchester City faction, is also trying to give more trust to the young captain of Petersburg on the pitch.
Lin Xu’s chances of getting the ball on the court have become more.
And every time he gets the ball, for Andorra, it is a torture.
11th minute.
Trippier sent in a ball straight at the back.
Foden in the middle played a beautiful match with Ward Prowse, easily passing Andorra’s defender and bringing the ball into the box.
Then Ward Prowse didn’t look at other positions, and directly kicked a long pass over the top on the edge of the penalty area and passed the ball to Lin Xu, who was moving outside the small penalty area.
England’s right-wing midfielder and Peterborough’s right-wing midfielder are also called Ward, but this Ward Prouse is from Southampton.
Ward Prowth’s pass was very accurate, and Lin Xu only needed to run two more positions to get the ball.
After the last goal, Andorra’s back line has become more rigorous against Lin Xu’s defense.
Not only No. 22 Christian Garcia is holding his position closely, but even Valles and Reb in the midfield have also retreated to the vicinity of the small penalty area, just to prevent Lin Xu from receiving the ball again.
But Lin Xu’s running position is as flexible as a loach.
Sancho and Saka used their movements on both sides to help him attract some defense, and Christian Garcia, who was always with Lin Xu, just glanced at Lin Xu at the moment of Ward’s pass, and immediately had a feeling of being killed.
He didn’t care about being fouled by the referee, and he wanted to pull Lin Xu’s shirt like the first goal.
This time.
Lin Xu didn’t let him touch him.
A dexterous flash.
Lin Xu easily avoided Garcia’s move, while tiptoe poked the ball before returning midfielder Reb fell to the ground and put a tackle.
Let the football roll into the small penalty area.
He is not good at ball control, and Lin Xu has never shied away from this.
So on the field, Lin Xu rarely does some gorgeous dribbling actions, like some flower work that teammates sometimes play, rainbow passing and so on, he never does.
At this stage, he is more practical.
All he has to do is do everything possible to take the ball to the small penalty area when his teammates pass it to him, then get up and hit the goal.
As for the rest.
In front of the goal, it doesn’t matter for the time being.
It’s the same with this ball.
When Leib fell to the ground and put the shovel, Lin Xu could faintly feel the movement behind him, but he ignored it and did not stop his speed.
In the ball
After passing the small forbidden area, his whole person also rushed in.
His speed is not in the English squad right now, but he is still a bit confident against Andorra Linxu.
“Lin Xu got the ball, and Leib’s tackle looked like 800 was shoveled to Lin Xu’s calf belly, but Lin Xu was not put down! He brought the ball into the small penalty area! ”
“This is Lin Xu’s territory!”
“Andorra goalkeeper Gomez chose to take the initiative this time!”
Gomez opened his arms and legs as much as possible, trying to block Lin Xu’s shooting route, Lin Xu will choose to pass the goalkeeper and hit the goal again! No! ”
“!!!!”
Ned’s voice suddenly rose, “Lin Xu chose to hit the door directly!! Face the attacking goalkeeper, a light pick! Fooled Andorra goalkeeper Josep Gomez! It’s a ball that is absolutely impossible to save!! ”
“Gooooooooooooooooooal!”
“Lin Xu’s shot came too easily and casually, he was like a team playing the Championship in Peterborough United, facing Andorra, there was no pressure at all!”
“With such a close distance, who would have thought that Lin Xu would directly hit the door!”
“Andorra’s defenders probably didn’t expect that they were all ready for Lin Xu to pass the goalkeeper and face the empty goal, and No. 18 defender Rubio was about to chase in front of the goal, but this ball caught everyone by surprise!”
In the live broadcast room.
Ned took a deep breath.
“2:0!”
“Midfielder Ward Prowse’s long pass directly assisted, Lin Xu picked out the goalkeeper in the small penalty area!”
“Eleven minutes, two shots!”
“Who would have thought that this young man was just a substitute on a youth contract with a Championship promotion team last month!!
“Incredible!”
“It’s incredible!”
“We are witnessing the birth of a superstar!!”
“Also, don’t forget, Lin Xu, as of today, he has just turned eighteen years old!”
Ned’s spit almost sprayed onto the screen in the live broadcast room.
But none of the staff present cared about this.
Because everyone, like him, has already started to go crazy because of Lin Xu’s two goals.
Debut at the World Qualifiers.
Two goals in eleven minutes.
Even if the opponent is Andorra, an authentic European weaker.
But this is also a World Cup qualifier.
No one doubts the gold content of Lin Xu’s national team debut.
Now.
No one is paying attention to Kane, the first captain of the national team who has been on the bench and has recently been in a low performance in the club league.
Fans are eager to see Lin Xu become the team’s center.
Join the Three Lions for next year’s World Cup.
The number of fans involved in the petition on Twitter has exceeded 200,000.
Kane?
Uh-huh, Kane is good, but they want Lin Xu…
