Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels

Back in Manchester, FC United have no league assignment this weekend, but a fifth-round FA Cup.

Although it has reached the fifth round and there are only three games left before the final final, Lu Wei still decided to abandon this match, not only because next week is the second leg with Lyon, FC United in the top four of the league is not very stable, according to the schedule even if this round of promotion, the FA Cup schedule will be next to the Europa League.

In order to preserve the season's success, Lu Wei had to abandon the oldest competition and send Leicester City to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

But even as a substitute, FC United did not let the Foxes win as easily, although Leicester City scored three goals, but the two Red Rebel youngsters also scored and did not make the exit ugly.

Jamie Vardy scored Ramsdell's goal with an overhead kick in the first half, and in first-half stoppage time, Graems scored a World Wave kick back with an assist from Jadon Sancho. After the resumption of the second half, FC United briefly suppressed Leicester City in the back, but Iheanacho seized a counter-attack opportunity to extend the lead, and finally Sancho failed to equalize even if he scored another goal.

The main players were well rested and FC United were ready for the second leg of the knockout round of the Europa League in the first round.

Lyon are not as well treated as FC United, having just lost to Monaco in the weekend league, and midfield core Fekir has suffered another knee injury, although it is not serious, but it will certainly not be able to come to England with the team.

One is full of state and full of energy, the other is exhausted and depressed, and everyone can see what the outcome of the game will be.

Sure enough, FC United scored twice in the first half to take a 3-0 lead on aggregate, and Depay, who returned to Manchester, only scored a face-saving goal in the second half.

The last 16 of the Europa League have already been released, and coincidentally, two teams from each of the four major leagues have advanced. FC United and Arsenal in the Premier League, Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao in La Liga, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga, AC Milan and Lazio in Serie A, and only Marseille in Ligue 1 in the fifth largest league.

The draw for the quarter-finals was also quickly available, with FC United drawn together with another European team.

RB Leipzig, founded by Red Bull in 2009 with the acquisition of German fifth-division team Mark Lanstedt, and Leipzig jumped four levels in seven years, successfully promoted to the Bundesliga last season, and finished second in the Bundesliga in its first season, playing in the Champions League for the first time this season, although only finishing third in the group stage, but also beating Porto and Monaco and other Champions League regulars.

RB Leipzig's players are equally young, and the club has been nurturing and recruiting promising young people from all over the world to shine with them.

The same team with no history, the same team that has risen rapidly from the lower leagues, the same team that is playing in European competition for the first time, and the same team with strong corporate support behind the club, the drawing of two similar teams has undoubtedly brought a lot of attention to this game.

Lu Wei also shook his head and smiled bitterly when he saw the result of this draw, FC United and RB Leipzig have nothing wrong in Europe, is UEFA going to create a pair of wrongdoers?

Leaning on the sofa, Lu Wei took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Steele.

"We are trying to collect all the information about RB Leipzig this season."

In his previous life, he didn't pay much attention to the Bundesliga, but Lu Wei has also heard about the current RB Leipzig, goalkeeper Guracic once joined Liverpool when he was young, and then moved to Red Bull Salzburg in Austria because he did not have the opportunity to play, and came to Germany after RB Leipzig was promoted to the Bundesliga, and has been playing for Red Bull Group.

Centre-back Upamecano was also part of Red Bull's talent mining programme, having played just one season in Austria before coming to Germany and becoming France's most expensive centre-back for a time.

Nabi. Keita, who will move to Liverpool at a high price next season, is an important player for Liverpool to win consecutive Premier League and Champions League games, as well as their top scorer Timo. Timo Werner, who scored three goals in the Champions League group and scored twice in the knockout stages of the Europa League, was a major contributor to the team's elimination of Napoli.

These four world-class players just form the central axis of RB Leipzig, and they are surrounded by Forsberg, Yusuf, Bruma, Lemer, etc., no wonder RB Leipzig can quickly make their name for themselves in the world.

What makes Lu Wei most admired is not RB Leipzig's achievements, but their vision of people, in recent years, Red Bull Group has continued to develop its own rivers and mountains in the world, from all over the world to find players with great potential, Lu Wei also wanted to follow their example in acquiring clubs around the world, let them become FC United's satellite clubs, but limited by FC United's operating philosophy, this matter can not be implemented, can only retreat to reach a cooperative relationship with local clubs, This is a way to attract young players.

Hungary is also one of the key countries covered by Red Bull Group scouting, and Lu Wei also placed FC United's Central European scouting base here, the two teams have actually had a lot of meetings in the past two years, but in the end, Lu Wei, who has future memories, grabbed the lead, Dominic. Sobosroy joined the Reds' youth team in '16 and has now become the core of the youth team's midfield.

The work of gathering information was handed over to Steele, and Lu Wei now has to prepare for FC United to keep its place in the league, with 10 rounds left in the league, Manchester City have 72 points, holding a huge lead of 13 points, and the league title is almost in their pocket.

Manchester United 59 points, FC United 58 points, Liverpool 57 points, Tottenham Hotspur 55 points, Chelsea 53 points, the Premier League four-four team is still so large, but Arsenal, who compete for four every year, have lost the team, and they have drawn five of their last seven games, which suddenly keeps them away from the Champions League qualification zone.

Arsenal's only hope of winning this season is the Europa League, losing to Manchester City in the just-concluded Carabao Cup final, losing to Nottingham Forest in the third round of the FA Cup, and drawing another big side AC Milan in the Europa League, but defeating Chelsea in the Community Shield at the beginning of the season to win a title.
